Chapter 53: The Candle Flame (I)
Qingyun Mountain, Tongtian Peak. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
The battle between the righteous and the demons has just ended, although in that tragic bloody battle, Qingyunmen finally defeated the Demon Sect and achieved a great victory that shook the world, but the so-called killing of 3,000 enemies and self-loss of 800, Qingyunmen itself is actually a lot of losses. Damage scars can be seen everywhere in the Lingshan Fairyland, and the immortal realm is in a mess, but these can be repaired, although they are tragic, they are still acceptable. Only in this great war, there were many dead and wounded among the disciples of the Qingyun Sect, among which many young heroes who were favored by the sect and had high hopes from the elders died early, which can be described as regrettable.
After the war, it is the time to heal the wounds and relieve the pain, and recuperate, and now the Qingyunmen, because the head of the real Tianchengzi was injured in the battle with the Demon Sect Leader, these days have been in retreat and recuperation, and there are no outsiders to be seen, and many affairs in the Qingyunmen are handled by Dao Xuan, the eldest disciple under his seat.
In fact, at the beginning, this decision also caused a burst of discussion in the Qingyun Sect, because although Dao Xuan is talented and prestigious, he is only a disciple of the younger generation, and above him, there are many seniors in the Qingyun Sect who are of the same generation as Tianchengzi, such as the first True Pheasant Master of Xiaozhu Peak, Zheng Tong, the first seat of Dazhu Peak, Zeng Wuji, etc., all of whom are highly respected sect elders. If Tianchengzi Zhenren can't take care of things, it seems that it is reasonable to hand over the position of the head of the sect to these elders.
It's just that in the actual process, the attitude of several elders with outstanding reputation was unexpectedly unanimous, and none of them had any opposition to the acting head of Dao Xuan, among which Zeng Wuji remained silent, and Zhen Yan and Zheng Tong directly expressed their support for Dao Xuan, so this opposition was soon suppressed. However, among the many disciples of Qingyunmen, there are always some incomprehensible and doubtful discussions in private.
However, all these suspicions and rumors quickly dissipated in the following days, because Dao Xuan quickly showed his astonishing ability in the position of acting head, and took care of the Qingyun Gate after the Great War, which was in ruins: from sorting out and repairing the battlefields of various peaks, to treating many wounded, arranging elixirs, dealing with countless tedious and trivial chores, and even including the remains of the dead left in various places on the mountain peaks and even some fallen valleys and ravines, all of which were handled without leakage. It was very well arranged.
After this extremely tragic battle between the righteous and demons, the entire Qingyunmen gradually revealed a new vitality, the original gloomy atmosphere in the sect gradually dissipated, and the faces of many disciples reappeared with smiles, even a little more new than before the war.
This change was seen by everyone, and the voices of discussion and doubt quickly disappeared, and the voices of admiration and praise for Dao Xuan rose one after another, which made the reputation of this young generation's premier talent in the door go to another level.
At the same time, not long ago, Dao Xuan suddenly made another astonishing move, that is, after the head of the Tianchengzi Zhenren Sect, he began to control the new Seven Veins Martial Arts Conference of Qingyunmen.
The Qingyunmen Seven Veins Martial Arts is held every ten years, which is the most lively and grand event in Qingyunmen for many years, and it has always been a shortcut for young disciples in the sect to get ahead and become famous in one fell swoop. Originally, because of the battle between the righteous and demons, Qingyunmen suffered heavy losses, and most people no longer had hope for this session of the Seven Veins Martial Arts Conference, who knew that Xuan would rise to the occasion and announce that he would hold this conference again, which immediately attracted the attention of Qingyunmen. Countless young talents are gearing up for this, and the last trace of sadness has been swept away.
Everybody is starting to look forward.
The Seven Veins Martial Arts Conference is huge, involving all the people of the Seven Veins of Qingyun Gate, and there are many big and small things that need to be communicated and handled, so Dao Xuan has been busy for a period of time. Fortunately, he is not a stupid person, in addition to asking for a few uncles and elders, he also invited many familiar and capable fellow disciples in the door to help, so things are going very smoothly, if it goes on like this, after a period of preparation, the Seven Veins Martial Arts Conference can be held.
However, Prime Minister Daoxuan's overall situation has never been clearly determined on the day when the next Seven Veins Martial Arts will be held, and he only said that it will take a while to prepare for complicated affairs, but those who know the inside story know that he is actually waiting for the return of Wan Jianyi and others who have left the sect.
During these days, with the consent of the first True Pheasant Master of Xiaozhu Peak, the two sisters Shui Yue and Su Ru were invited by Dao Xuan to often go to Tongtian Peak to help.
Shui Yue is talented, although she is cool and fair, she is fair and sensitive, but Su Ru is lively and cheerful, and she is born to get along with people. In addition, the two of them are both born in the lineage of Xiaozhufeng, which is rich in beauties, and the same beauty is amazing, not only helping Dao Xuan a lot, but also being noticed by many people in Qingyunmen, and there are a lot of admirers at once, for a while, Xiaozhufeng and the name of the fairy can be said to be famous.

On this day, on the Tongtian Peak of Qingyun Mountain, outside the Yuqing Palace, Dao Xuan walked up from the stone steps down the mountain, and there was a person beside him, but it was Tianyun who was seriously injured and bedridden before.
At this moment, Tianyun's face is still pale and haggard, it should not be very good, but he can walk on the ground and get here, he should have survived the saddest time.
Dao Xuan said to Tianyun at this moment: "Senior Brother Tianyun, your injuries have only gotten better, you should be calm and recuperate, why did you come to me in a hurry?" If there is a repetition, it will not be a toss for yourself. ”
Tianyun smiled a little weakly and said, "Senior brother, your kind-hearted little brother understands it in his heart, but these days I have seen many senior brothers in the door busy, but I am lying on the bed like a waste person, which is really boring." If the senior brother doesn't dislike it, and thinks that the younger brother still has one or two things to use, let me help you. ”
Dao Xuan glanced at him, and said with a bow: "Senior Brother Tianyun has a heart, right now our Qingyunmen is the time when everything is waiting to be revived, there are indeed many complicated things, Senior Brother is willing to come out to do things to help me, and I am naturally happy for my brother." You're ...... here."
Halfway through the words, they suddenly heard a roar like thunder behind them, that is, in the clear water and cold pool of His Royal Highness Yuqing, which shook the valley and echoed far away, and the sound was majestic and terrifying.
The two turned to look at each other at the same time, and Tianyun was stunned and said, "That's Lingzun?" ”
Dao Xuan stared down and frowned, "It should be Lingzun, but I don't know why it suddenly became a little restless today?" ”
Tianyun said: "Senior brother, do you want me to go down and have a look?" ”
Dao Xuan pondered for a moment and waited again, but then it calmed down again, and there was no movement, it seemed that the water unicorn just roared boredly, and in a blink of an eye, it went to sleep under the water again. After waiting like this for a while, Dao Xuan finally shook his head and said, "Forget it, it doesn't seem to be a big deal, you can come in with me first." ”
The two walked into the Yuqing Hall together, and there were already several groups of people waiting here, waiting for Dao Xuan to come back to deal with the affairs at hand.
Tianyun stood aside, watching Dao Xuan sit straight on the main seat, quickly and quickly dealing with several chores in succession, in his opinion, there are quite complicated and difficult to solve, but Dao Xuan almost disposed of it in a blink of an eye at the speed of a quick knife, and couldn't help but admire, and was about to compliment this senior brother a few words, when he suddenly heard the sound of footsteps, but it was a young and beautiful woman walking in front of him, it was Shui Yue.
At this time, Dao Xuan just finished disposing of the affairs of the last group of people at hand, whispered a few words to the person, and sent him away, then turned his head to look at Shui Yue, nodded to her, and said hello.
However, Tianyun's eyes lit up next to him, and he stood up and saluted Shui Yue, saying, "Long time no see, Senior Sister Shui Yue." ”
Shui Yue saw that she was also here, and there was a hint of surprise on her face, but she had always been calm, and soon returned to normal, nodded to Tianyun, and then called out to Dao Xuan, handed over a white piece of paper with a few lines of handwriting, and said: "Senior Brother Dao Xuan, I have known that the rest of the veins will report the list of disciples who will participate in the Seven Veins Martial Arts as soon as possible, but they have not yet made a final decision, and they will have to wait for a few days." This piece of paper is a list of our Xiaozhufeng lineage, please take a look. ”
Dao Xuan was stunned for a moment, then showed a smile, took the blank paper, and said: "It's still Xiao Zhufeng who is the fastest to do things, and it's hard for Senior Sister Shuiyue." ”
Shui Yue smiled slightly, didn't speak, and stood aside, while Tianyun's eyes involuntarily followed. Shui Yue realized something, raised his eyes and glanced at Tianyun, Tianyun was startled somehow, and hurriedly withdrew his gaze and looked away. Shui Yue looked at him and frowned, but she didn't say anything else, just a trace of disdain passed in the depths of her eyes.
Dao Xuan looked at the list of Xiaozhufeng, and then nodded: "It's okay, this list will be placed here for me first, and then you can log in here." ”
Shui Yue nodded, and then spoke: "By the way, Senior Brother Daoxuan, I have something to do with Senior Sister Su Ru, please ask her to come out." ”
Dao Xuan was stunned for a moment, and then said in amazement: "Senior Sister Su, I haven't seen her today?" ”
Shui Yue raised her eyebrows, and seemed to be a little surprised, and said, "Senior Sister Su, she came to Tongtian Peak this morning, saying that she had something important to tell you, but until now I haven't seen her come back, and I thought she had been here with you." ”
Dao Xuan thought for a while and said, "I went to Yunhai and Cuiping to renovate a few damaged areas, and it took a long time, so I may have missed it." Maybe she didn't find me, she went back first, you missed it halfway, right? ”
Shui Yue let out an "oh", nodded and said, "I see, if the senior brother is okay here, I will leave first." ”
Dao Xuan said: "Well, you can go." ”
