When Long Aotian Dressed as a White Lotus

Snowflakes flew all over the sky outside the window, and within half a day, they rustled down the whole yard.There were hundreds of green bamboos in front of the window, and they were already covered with a thick layer of snow, which bent the bamboos a bit.

Ling Yiyun sat in front of the wide open window, and slowly put the hot tea in his hand on the low table beside him.

A Taoist boy pushed open the door of his cave with a squeak.Daotong was wearing a thin cloak, and his shoulders were already covered with snowflakes.

"Senior Brother Ling!" Daotong stood at the door and saluted, and walked in with a letter in his hand.

Ling Yiyun looked sideways at him, with a gentle smile on his face: "What?"

Ling Yiyun always has a magical power.He always treats people with gentleness and courtesy, and when others see him, they also smile from the bottom of their hearts.As soon as the Taoist saw him, he laughed, brushed off the snow from his body, walked over, and handed the letter to the table in front of him.

"The suzerain asked me to bring it to you." Dao Tong said. "This year's Immortal Dao Conference will be held at Jianjianmen. The sect master said that there are too many affairs in the sect, and she is too busy, so he asked you to take the disciples there."

Ling Yiyun laughed lightly.

"It's like this all the time." He said, opening the letter. "This Immortal Dao Conference has been postponed again and again for unknown reasons. Can this letter say when it will be held?"

Daotong replied: "Zhai Zhenren, who asked about the Sword Gate, said that this year's Immortal Dao Conference will be held until the beginning of spring, and there are still more than two months left."

Ling Yiyun pondered and said: "Then it will be just fine to set off in a month and a half."

Daotong smiled and nodded.

"Did Zhai Tingshen say anything about why the Immortal Dao Conference was held so late?" Ling Yiyun asked again.

Daotong said: "The letter said that the Jianjian Gate is adjacent to the Demon Realm. During this period of time, there seems to be a lot of turmoil in the Demon Realm, so many demon cultivators fled, making the vicinity of the Sword Asking Gate restless—it has only recently returned to normal."

Ling Yiyun let out an oh and nodded.

He also knows a thing or two about the turmoil in the demon world.But because there is basically no communication between the fairy and demon realms, the information is completely blocked, so he doesn't know what happened in the demon realm.

Now it seems that even Zhai Tingshen doesn't know.

Ling Yiyun sighed.

At this juncture, if he were to take his disciples on a trip, he would really feel a little uneasy.If Ling Xiao was here...

Thinking of this, Ling Yiyun's expression froze slightly, and he looked at the small box he had placed in front of the window.

The box is empty.At this time, some snow fell on the top, and the color was mottled.

When this box was brought back by Ling Xiao five years ago, it contained two Nine-Turn Peiyuan Pills.

Thinking of this, Ling Yiyun's expression froze.

"Your Uncle Ling, are you still retreating?" He asked.

Dao Tong nodded and said, "Yes."

Ling Yiyun said softly: "If you count it, he has been in retreat for almost five years..." After all, five years ago, when he came back from Beiman Mountain, it was also winter.

Daotong replied again.

Ling Yiyun didn't speak any more, holding the letter in his hand, slowly raised his head, and looked at the snowflakes falling outside the window.

-

Immortal dao conferences are often held in autumn or spring, and the specific time is often decided by the person in charge of the host country.

Ling Yiyun remembered that five years ago, the Immortal Dao Conference held in Qing Xuanzong was still in autumn.When Ling Xiao set off from Emperor Xuanzong of the Qing Dynasty, the Immortal Dao Conference was halfway through, and when he came back, it was also the season when frost and snow were falling on his shoulders.

That time when Ling Xiao came back, he was a completely different person.

He no longer wore the long snow-white dress that he had worn since he was a child.He is completely dressed like a man, wearing a simple but elegant Taoist robe, and his long hair tied in a jade crown, making him look extraordinarily heroic, like a lingering jade tree.

He was originally tall, and when he wore women's clothes, he stood out from the crowd, much taller than ordinary female cultivators.Now that he is dressed as a male cultivator, he is like a man with a drawn sword.

When he came back, his head and shoulders were also covered with snow. From a distance, he looked lonely and cold, as if he had turned white.

He was alone, and the apprentice who usually followed him like a wolf dog did not come back with him.

When Ling Xiao appeared like this, the entire sect was in an uproar.

——How did Master Ling Xiao become a man? !

Ling Yiyun was also stunned when he saw him, but Ling Xiao didn't pay attention to those strange eyes at all.He stood there calmly, and before he could speak, Ling Xiao stuffed a box into his hands—the box contained two Nine-Revolution Peiyuan Pills.

Ling Yiyun was stunned: "Junior Sister... Junior Brother?"

Ling Xiao looked at him, his eyebrows were cold, and he hummed, his voice was as cold and clear as the ice and snow on the top of a mountain.

Ling Yiyun looked him up and down, took two steps forward, and said in relief: "Your Myriad Tribulation Gu has been solved? Then there is really an antidote in Beimang Mountain!"

Ling Xiao nodded.

Ling Yiyun looked at him.At this time, Ling Xiaotong's aura is really completely different, even his senior brother who has watched him since he was a child feels a little awkward.

He stopped talking several times, couldn't hold back, and asked in a low voice: "You...have you changed back to your original attire?" After all, he knew that Ling Xiao was a man.

Ling Xiao hummed again, turned around and walked towards the main peak of Qingxuanzong.

Behind him, it was empty.

Ling Yiyun quickly caught up: "Then, junior brother, where is your apprentice?"

Ling Xiao didn't say a word, didn't even look at him, as if he didn't hear his words, he went straight to the main peak.

Ling Yiyun chased after two steps, seeing that he really didn't want to say anything, sighed, and stopped.

His master...junior brother, after coming back this time, he has made such a big change, and he must have experienced quite a lot in Beimang Mountain.

He vaguely felt that there was a cold and dead silence in his junior brother's eyes, and at the same time, there was some tough emotion hidden in the ice and snow in his eyes.

Ling Yiyun went to deal with the rumors about his gender for him, and didn't ask any more questions about the rest.

And over there, Ling Xiao went to the main peak of Qingxuanzong and met Jian Xiao.

No one knew what Ling Xiao and Jian Xiao said behind closed doors that day, everyone only knew that Ling Xiao went into seclusion within a few days after leaving Jian Xiao's place that day.

Ling Yiyun was worried, and even went to Jian Xiao once.

"Do you know what happened to Junior Brother?" Ling Yiyun asked at that time. "I know I shouldn't ask too much, but I'm really not at ease with him like this."

After Jian Xiao heard it, she smiled and poured him a cup of tea.

"It's nothing." Jian Xiao said. "Brother is only worried about what problems he encountered, who knows that this is not a good thing for him?"

Ling Yijun murmured after hearing the words: "It's a good thing that he can show others his original attire... But if, I mean, he dresses like that, what if he likes that?"

Ling Yiyun faltered, and it took Jian Xiao a moment to understand what he meant——

Jian Xiao asked: "Are you afraid, he likes to wear women's clothing, but he was wronged there, so he dare not wear it anymore?"

Ling Yiyun blushed a little and nodded.

Jian Xiao burst out laughing.

She pushed the tea to Ling Yiyun's hand, and said: "Senior brother, don't worry, he's fine." Speaking of this, she paused, and pointedly said: "On the contrary, life is better."

Ling Yiyun breathed a sigh of relief.

He continued to ask: "The apprentice of the apprentice, where did you go, do you know?"

Jian Xiao didn't raise her eyes when she heard the words, and said slowly: "Of course he should go to where he should go now."

Hearing this, Ling Yiyun asked in a daze: "What is... where should he go now?"

Jian Xiao smiled and shook her head: "It's literally. When he should come back, he will come back."

Ling Yiyun looked at him.

He didn't quite understand what Jian Xiao meant.In his opinion, there is no need to beat around the bush if there is something to do.But seeing Jian Xiao's expression, he didn't show any worry.

Ling Yiyun reluctantly felt relieved.

If there is nothing else, he wants to say goodbye and leave.

At this moment, Jian Xiao stopped him.

"Brother." She said behind Ling Yiyun's back. "It is a luxury to want to come to a person who can live in the world completely and freely without any burden or hatred."

Ling Yiyun was slightly taken aback.

Then, he heard Jian Xiao laughing.

"Now, each of us can live like this." She said with a smile. "You should be happy for Junior Brother."... happy for me too.

However, Ling Yiyun, who didn't know the way of heaven from the beginning to the end, naturally didn't understand her words.

At that time, Ling Yiyun secretly planned to wait for Ling Xiao to come out of the retreat before going to have a good talk with him.

Unexpectedly, he waited for five years.

-

Ling Yiyun withdrew from the memory, looked at the whiteness outside the window, and sighed.

At this time, the Taoist boy who delivered the letter to him had already saluted him and was about to leave.Ling Yiyun came back to his senses, raised his voice to stop him, and said: "Junior brother's Yuehuafeng, can you send someone to clean it on time?"

That Daotong quickly replied: "Uncle Hui, I go to clean it every month, put away old things, and replace them with new ones."

Ling Yiyun nodded with a smile: "Thank you for your hard work."

That Daotong quickly waved his hand: "What are you talking about? It's not hard work at all, this is what a disciple should do!"

Speaking of this, he paused, as if remembering something, and said: "By the way, Master... the demon cultivator outside the mountain gate who came to find Master Ling Xiao every now and then, came again today."

Ling Yiyun frowned.

The last time his junior brother came back alone, he didn't expect to follow him after a long time after the retreat.That tail is a demon cultivator in the form of a phoenix, and its appearance is particularly eye-catching.

He wasn't in a hurry to see Ling Xiao either, he just strolled to Qing Xuanzong in a few months, and came to ask Ling Xiao if he had left the customs.

Ling Yiyun asked: "Have you been sent away?"

The disciple nodded: "It is said that the uncle did not leave the customs, so he left by himself."

Ling Yiyun nodded.

At this moment, Ling Yiyun's door was pushed open from the outside.

Ling Yiyun turned around and looked over.

"...Uncle Ling!" The disciple panted heavily, as if he came here in a hurry.

"Master Ling Xiao...Uncle Ling Xiao, he's out of customs!"
