Transmigration: Experiencing Life's End - Dying Peacefully in One's Sleep

Chapter 273 The Young Man on a White Horse, Drunk in the Spring Breeze 3

During this period, countless forces came to provoke them, but they all suffered a crushing defeat and couldn't even get through the doors.

The Qingyun Sect gained fame in one battle, which made it even more attractive to people.

Countless people went to join; as long as they passed the interviews with the sect leader and deputy sect leader, they could enter the sect.

Rumor has it that the sect leader and deputy sect leader of the Qingyun Sect are both beautiful women with high martial arts skills, while the Grand Elder is a handsome young man with formidable strength.

No one could withstand even a single round from them, which made countless people want to meet them. To be fortunate enough to become their disciple was even more exciting.

Those who were fortunate enough to meet them a year ago also yearn for it.

Baili Dongjun and Ye Yun were sitting in the teahouse, discussing this matter.

"Brother Yun, would you like to become an apprentice and learn martial arts? The woman we met before, I don't know if she is the vice sect leader or the sect leader, and the Grand Elder should be the young man who accompanied her." Baili Dongjun said excitedly.

"I've heard that the sect leader and deputy sect leader of the Qingyun Sect are both very skilled in swordsmanship and saber techniques. I do admire them," Ye Yun said, recalling the person he had met a year ago.

“If you go to learn swordsmanship, then I’ll just brew wine. In the future, you can be a sword immortal, and I’ll be a wine immortal!” Baili Dongjun said.

"Okay, when we grow up, we'll go out and explore the world together."

"Okay, then it's settled!"

Baili Dongjun then remembered something else: "I heard that your family wanted to arrange a marriage for you, but you refused?"

“That’s right, these things aren’t urgent. I’m going to pursue the way of the sword and not think about romance for now,” Ye Yun said, his eyes shining.

His family did mention it, but before they could say which family it was, he immediately refused, saying he didn't want to think about it for the time being.

A year ago, he had the good fortune to witness the strength of the Qingyun Sect, which fueled his even stronger desire for power. He was determined to become stronger.

"Brother Yun, you can definitely do it!" Baili Dongjun said with a smile.

The two laughed and walked out of the teahouse, chatting and laughing.

At the summit of the highest peak of the Qingyun Sect, a palace stands tall.

The first thing that catches the eye is a pond in front of the hall, where lotus flowers and green leaves stand gracefully, exuding a pleasant fragrance.

A small bridge leads to the palace entrance. The palace is elegant and unique in its architecture; this is the patriarch's palace.

Further in, there is a peach grove, with peach blossoms falling everywhere, and a tall tower stands in the middle of it.

Lou Yu lay listlessly on a chair in the hall, watching the disciples practicing martial arts down the mountain on the screen in front of him.

She had previously spent 2,000 points to negotiate with Xiao Qi and bought two martial arts manuals, asking her to give her a few more as a gift.

The more points she accumulates, the less willing she is to spend them; it's true that rich people are stingier.

Xiao Qi was so bothered by her that she had no choice but to apply, and to her surprise, the main system actually approved it.

The disciples in the sect now learn according to their talents. The stage they reach depends on their talent and how diligently they study and practice.

She entrusted the disciples to Yunshang's care, and she also selected two elders, who were then appointed as the third elders in order.

Seeing that Lou Yu was bored, Xiao Qi suggested from the side, "Host, why don't we go out for a walk?"

Upon hearing this, Lou Yu sat up straight: "Okay, I've been here for a year, it's time to go out and see the world."

When they were about to go out, Yunshang arranged for disciples to accompany them, saying that they should have the grandeur of the Qingyun Sect.

“Host, Yunshang has changed. She’s more popular now,” Xiaoqi said, sitting in the carriage.

Lou Yu nodded: "Indeed, she wouldn't have worried about so much before."

"But this change is good, otherwise I'm afraid she'd get bored to death." Xiao Qi peeled an orange and shared half with Lou Yu.

She took it, put the orange in her mouth and tasted it. It was sweet and delicious. She then said, "Yes, that's how it is."

As they were talking, Lou Yu suddenly stopped and looked ahead through the carriage.

A boy dressed in tattered clothes, his face obscured by tears and ash, rushed straight ahead without looking where he was going.

Xiao Qi looked over as well: "Host, it's the future villain, Ye Dingzhi!"

"What's going on?" Lou Yu asked.

After a pause, Xiao Qi finally spoke: "I just found out that the Ye family was executed, and he was the only one who escaped."

The chaotic footsteps grew closer, followed by the voices of the accompanying disciples outside.

"Who are you?" Just as he finished speaking, Ye Yun walked up to the carriage.

Before he could even speak, he collapsed from exhaustion due to prolonged lack of food and continuous running.

"What should we do, senior brother?" A disciple next to him asked the leader.

"I'll go ask the sect leader for instructions." A voice came from inside the carriage as soon as Han Shu finished speaking.

"Bring the person along!"

Lou Yu and Xiao Qi had been watching the situation outside, and after seeing it, she still spoke up.

Upon hearing this, the eldest disciple, Han Shu, bowed and said, "Yes, Sect Master!"

Then, he looked at the disciple beside him: "Help him up and let him ride with Junior Brother Xu. He's the best horseman and lightweight, so it's the most convenient for him to carry people."

Xu Yang, the disciple who had just spoken to Han Shu, agreed upon hearing this: "Okay, Senior Brother."

Ye Yun was placed in front of Xu Yang's horse. After everything was settled, everyone mounted their horses and continued their journey.

"Host, she's already fainted, and you're making her be carried by a horse?" Xiao Qi said.

Lou Yu glanced at it before speaking, "He's so dirty, and he won't die anytime soon."

"Host, how can you be so heartless? This person is a pitiful little thing who just had their home ransacked!" Xiao Qi continued.

"Why didn't you say anything when they were making the arrangements? Are you just being a Monday morning quarterback?" Lou Yu rolled her eyes at it.

Xiao Qi immediately burst into laughter: "I just didn't dare to disobey you, host, the sect leader's decision!"

"Come on, don't even try!" Lou Yu glanced at it speechlessly.

Xiao Qi smiled and thought to herself that arguing with her host was so much fun.

Once inside the city, Han Shu's voice came from outside: "Sect Master, shall we find an inn to rest first?"

"Okay!" Lou Yu said lazily.

Upon hearing this, Han Shu outside looked at the others and said, "Go to the best inn."

Before he left, the vice sect leader had instructed him to arrange the best for the sect leader.

"Yes, Big Brother."

At the front of the carriage was the emblem of the Qingyun Sect. Passersby, seeing that it was a carriage belonging to the Qingyun Sect, quickly made way for it.

"Why are the people from the Qingyun Sect traveling?" someone sitting in the inn asked, seeing the carriages passing by outside the window.

The person at the table picked up his wine glass, took a sip, and said, "Why are you meddling so much? Why are you asking so many questions about other sects' affairs?"

"I'm just curious. After all, it's rare to see people from the Qingyun Sect traveling by carriage. They must not be ordinary disciples inside."

"What you said makes sense. Could it be an elder or someone higher up? I'm very curious about the true face of their sect leader. I've heard she's a rare beauty." The man said with a click of his tongue after drinking.
