Volume 1 The Decline of the Sect Chapter 2 The Decline of the Sect
"Second Elder, you go and check which heads of the Ancient Sword Sect have Xiaozi tokens. ”
The Great Elder turned back to the Second Elder and said, he continued to mutter, "This is impossible, the token must be handed over when the head is replaced, and after it is recast, it will be carried by the new head of the family, and it is impossible for it to flow out of the outside world." ”
The Great Elder frowned, and held the Xiaozi token tightly in his hand, the head token was very important, and it was a status symbol of the head of the house.
With the head token, you can unconditionally make a request to the ancient sword gate, as long as the ancient sword gate can do it, then it must be completed by unscrupulous means, this is the ancestral training left by the old ancestors.
Therefore, every head must protect this token, and it must not fall into the hands of outsiders, otherwise the consequences are unimaginable.
The second elder took out the genealogy from the ring, in addition to serving as the second elder of the outer courtyard of the Ancient Sword Gate, he was also the elder of the Ancient Sword Gate's library pavilion.
The second elder quickly flipped through the genealogy, briefly skimming over the names of each head of the family, and finally his gaze fell on the last page of the genealogy.
"Second Elder, how many heads of the sect have Xiaozi tokens?"
The Great Elder asked with some urgency, this matter was very important, and he had to deal with it carefully.
The second elder nodded and replied, "According to the genealogy of the Ancient Sword Sect, there are 7 heads with the word Xiao in their names, but ...... The tokens of these leaders have been recycled and will never be leaked out. ”
Speaking of this, the Second Elder frowned, and after hesitating for a moment, he continued, "But...... There was one exception, except for one boss with the word Xiao in his name, whose token was not withdrawn. ”
The Great Elder was shocked in his heart, he didn't expect that when the Ancient Sword Sect handled the token so carefully, there would be something missing.
"Tell me whose token it is. ”
The second elder took a deep breath, a wry smile broke out at the corner of his mouth, and said in a deep voice: "Big Master!"
"Tear!"
The Great Elder immediately gasped, and his heart was extremely shocked, just because of this title, it was too shocking to cry ghosts and gods!
The Ancient Sword Gate has a history of millions of years, and the heads of the genealogy can be said to be countless, but there is only one exception, which can be called the legendary figure of the "big master".
Big boss, Li Yunxiao!
The first head of the Ancient Sword Gate, based on the Xiaoyao Peak in Dongzhou, established the Ancient Sword Gate on this mountain range with abundant spiritual energy, swept away the demon beasts of the Xiaoyao Peak, and set up a gathering spirit array, a large array to protect the sect, and a large teleportation array......
At the beginning, it can be said that it was the most glorious period of the ancient sword gate, sweeping the Quartet, surrendering to Wanzong, and gaining prestige.
"It's impossible, the big boss has already soared, could it be that someone outside picked up the boss token he left behind?"
The Great Elder took a deep breath and quickly calmed himself down, and now it was certain that this was the token of the Great Master, who had been picked up by accident.
"Go and call him!"
The Great Elder immediately shouted at the disciple who was reporting the message, and at this time, his old hand holding the Xiaozi token was trembling slightly.
No matter who the person outside is, he can have this token, which means that he has an inextricable relationship with the big boss, and maybe he has the treasures left by the big boss in his hands.
Now, it can only be a gamble, the ancient sword gate is gradually declining, and the luck has declined, and it has reached the bottom.
If we can't find a way to change the status quo, I'm afraid that the glory of the Ancient Sword Sect for millions of years will end in this generation.
"Great Elder...... He wants you to see him in person, or he'll ......"
The matter was critical, and when he saw the disciple at the gate, he shouted directly: "If you have something to say, say it quickly!"
"If the Great Elder doesn't go to see him in person, he will call him directly. ”
"It's such an arrogant little word, even if the ancient sword sect is not as strong as it was at the beginning, but it's not something that can be insulted by a random kid!"
The Great Elder was so angry that his beard stood upright, even if he was old, his violent temper had not been restrained.
"Well, I'll go see this kid myself and see what he's capable of. ”
With that, the Great Elder and the Second Elder walked towards the mountain pass of the Ancient Sword Gate under the leadership of the disciples guarding the gate.
"The Great Elder, the Second Elder, that one is the holder of the Master Token. ”
When he came to the mountain gate, the disciple who guarded the door pointed to the man in blue standing outside the door and said.
"Great Elder...... It's this kid, hurt me, give him a lesson!"
The disciple who fell to the ground saw the two elders of the outer courtyard come out, and immediately pointed to Li Xiuyun who was not far away and said.
The Great Elder and the Second Elder frowned slightly, just glanced at the disciple guarding the ground slightly, and then set their eyes on Li Xiuyun in front of him.
The disciple who fell to the ground was actually not a disciple of the ancient sword sect in the true sense, but entered the ancient sword gate through the "back door".
The emaciated camel is bigger than the horse, no matter how the ancient sword sect declines, it was once a super-first-class force in the Shengwu Continent after all. And relying on the identity of the Ancient Sword Sect, these backdoor disciples always have no one in sight in the sect.
In the Holy Martial Continent, the Ten Thousand Dao Immortal Alliance divided the strength of all sects into super-first-rate forces, first-rate forces, second-rate forces, and third-rate forces.
And now that the Ancient Sword Gate has fallen, it has lost its identity as a super-first-class force two thousand years ago and has become a first-class force.
"Great Elder, Second Elder, why don't you teach him a lesson!"
Seeing that the two elders didn't make a move, the face of the disciple who had fallen to the ground suddenly became a little ugly.
"Hmph, isn't it just a little injury, if you cultivate honestly, you won't end up like this, don't embarrass the Ancient Sword Sect here, get out of here for me!"
The Great Elder mercilessly shouted at the gatekeeper disciple who fell to the ground, and the gatekeeper's face was extremely pale.
"Am I not a disciple of the Ancient Sword Sect?"
The disciple stood up crookedly from the ground, his face becoming gloomy.
"From today on, you are no longer a disciple of the Ancient Sword Sect, pack up your things and get out of here!"
The Great Elder's gaze became fierce, staring at the disciple guarding the sect with a chill in his back, and his feet couldn't help but tremble.
"Hehe, Lao Tzu is not uncommon for this broken sect, it is still a first-class force, but as a result, his own disciples were beaten, and he didn't even dare to put a fart, and the ancient sword sect really raised a group of bad seeds!"
After leaving the cruel words, the disciple of the gate shuffled down the mountain.
"Why let him go, this kind of person lives, and he will only have endless troubles in the future. ”
Li Xiuyun on the side frowned slightly, looked at the Great Elder, and asked.
The Second Elder beside the Great Elder opened his mouth to explain: "The force behind him is the Flying Sword Sect, if you kill him, it will only cause the relationship between the Ancient Sword Sect and the Flying Sword Sect to deteriorate, and this will outweigh the losses." Anyway, it's just a clown who jumps off the beam, and he can't make any waves. ”
Hearing this, Li Xiuyun's brows couldn't help frowning, and he asked rhetorically, "Which sect is the Flying Sword Sect, and why is the Ancient Sword Sect afraid of it?"
The second elder couldn't help but sigh and said, "During the strong period of the Ancient Sword Sect, the Flying Sword Sect was just a subsidiary sect of the Ancient Sword Sect, and now the strength of the Ancient Sword Sect is not as good as before, and the Flying Sword Sect has gradually disobeyed orders, and has never paid tribute to the Ancient Sword Sect since decades ago. ”
He pointed in the direction where the gatekeeper disciple had left, and continued: "The disciple who left is actually an eyeliner sent by the Flying Sword Sect, and he has been arranged in the gatekeeper position, and he has been unhappy for a long time. ”
Li Xiuyun pondered for a while, and from the mouth of the second elder in front of him, he roughly understood the current situation of the Ancient Sword Sect.
Unexpectedly, those sects that used to be affiliated forces no longer obey the orders of the Ancient Sword Sect.
In the final analysis, it is the reason why the Ancient Sword Sect is gradually declining, if it was the heyday of the year, these affiliated forces would not even dare to let go of a fart.
And since he came to the Gujianmen Mountain Gate, he vaguely felt that there was a force affecting the luck of the Gujianmen, which led to the continuous decline of the Gujianmen.
He still doesn't know where the source of this power is, but the reason for the decline of the Ancient Sword Gate must be inextricably linked to this mysterious power.
"Is this token yours?"
The Great Elder walked up to Li Xiuyun and asked.
Li Xiuyun nodded lightly and asked lightly, "This is my token, so you are the current Great Elder of the Ancient Sword Sect?"
The Great Elder nodded, and he turned back to the gatekeeper disciple who led the way and said, "You go back first." ”
After branching out this disciple, the Great Elder went straight to the point and said, "I am the Great Elder of the Ancient Sword Sect, Li Chongyang, where did you pick up this token?"
Li Xiuyun smiled slightly and replied: "This is originally my thing, how can I pick up this statement." ”
This answer is equivalent to nonsense, because the owner of this token is the big boss, and the big boss has already soared, and the man in blue in front of him looks very young, like a gentleman from a certain family, and his tone is full of arrogance.
"Is there anything else you have on you besides this token, or do you know anything other than the owner of this token?"
The Great Elder continued to ask, he always felt that the man in blue in front of him knew something, but his deep black eyes couldn't see the door at all.
"Who else but me has this one-of-a-kind token?"
Li Xiuyun couldn't help but want to laugh a little, but his words were no different from nonsense in the eyes of the Great Elder.
He is the owner of the token? Joke, the owner of this token is the big head of the Gu Jian Gate, could he be the big head of the Gu Sword Gate?
Ridiculous, that's absolutely impossible!
However, he also understood that it was impossible to get words out of the mouth of the man in blue, and his tone was very tight.
The key is that he can't do anything with the kid in front of him, according to the rules left by the ancestors of the ancient sword sect, seeing the head token is like seeing the head of the house, and he can't slack off.
However, Gu Jianmen now has a successor leader, so this head token is at most a status symbol, but the face that should be given still has to be given.
"Tell me, what do you want?"
Seeing that he couldn't speak, the Great Elder had no choice but to ask Li Xiuyun directly, according to the ancestral teachings left by the old ancestors, the head token could unconditionally make a request to the Ancient Sword Sect.
Back to the topic, the corners of Li Xiuyun's mouth immediately raised slightly, he came to the Ancient Sword Gate today for this matter.
"I want to be the young master of the Ancient Sword Sect. ”
The words were not shocking, and as soon as these words came out, even these two senior elders couldn't help but gasp.
The young master of the Ancient Sword Sect, that is the heir of the head of the King James Gate, and its importance is no less than that of the head of the sect itself!
The comer is not good!
The two big palms looked at each other, this request could not be agreed!
