"Do you have a crush on your disciple?" Head Yan asked.

"Yes." Chang Lihuan stared at the children who were studying the course in the lecture hall in the water mirror, and only after a while did he answer Master Yan.

Master Yan put down the pen in his hand, stood up and came to Chang Lihuan's side, and looked at the water mirror with lowered eyes.

It was a quiet boy, white and delicate, dressed in the white-on-white and red-edged clothes of the disciples of Eastern Chu, who was sitting in his seat in the pulpit hall at this time, listening carefully to the teacher's lecture.

Master Yan thought about it, but didn't remember who this child was.

Chang Lihuan seemed to see the thoughts of Master Yan, and said: "This kid's name is Zhiqinghe, Shuimu Shuanglinggen, and he is very talented in painting. ”

"I thought you valued Yangqing very much." Head Yan was silent for a long time and spoke.

"Since that incident happened, Yang Qing's mood has been damaged, and if he doesn't break through that inner demon, he is very likely that Yuan Ying will not be able to get by." Chang Lihuan said: "I must find a disciple who can take over my mantle, and I can't pin all my hopes on Yang Qing." ”

Chang Lihuan's words are very cold, but they are also indisputable facts. Since the death of Wei Hanxiao, that is, Senior Sister Wei in the mouths of Yang Qing and Mu Qingxiao, Yang Qing has had a demon, but the demon in his heart is difficult to count on even Yuanying's cultivation. Don't look at Yang Qing's current cultivation is the Jindan Great Perfection, and he is only one step away from being able to become a Yuanying, but it is very likely that he will always take a step past this step, and he will always stay in the Jindan Great Perfection until his life is exhausted.

Chang Lihuan used to have a lot of hope for Yang Qing, and expected him to inherit the mantle of his own painting, but now he is disappointed and hates that Yang Qing can't overcome the slow cultivation of the demons.

Everyone knew about that incident back then, it wasn't anyone's fault, but he was too stubborn, and after all these years, he was the only one trapped in place.

So he no longer put all his hopes on Yang Qing, but let go of his eyes and began to look for a successor.

He always felt that he didn't have much time, and he was desperately and anxiously looking for a child who could inherit his talent for painting, so he saw Zhi Qinghe.

Regarding Chang Lihuan's urgent search for an heir, Master Yan knew the reason very well, but the clearer he knew the reason, the more he felt sorry for Chang Lihuan.

"Are you in such a hurry?" Head Yan asked.

"Time is running out." Chang Lihuan said: "The cause and effect in my body are getting heavier and heavier, and it is difficult to improve my cultivation now. ”

"Didn't you ever think of cutting off the cause and effect with the Tsunego Imperial Family?" Yan Zhangdao.

Chang Lihuan just smiled and shook his head, but did not speak.

Master Yan sighed.

Beixunzong

The sect master's hall was cold and lonely, Lu Wanglou, the current sect master of the Beixun Sect, sat on the chair above with his chin in one hand, his expression was empty, and countless files and books were placed on the table in front of him, but he didn't look at it and didn't dare to touch it.

Outside the Sect Master's Hall, the disciples came and went, either chatting or discussing, and they didn't even give the Sect Master's Hall a look, as if they didn't take the Sect Master's Hall in their eyes, and they didn't care at all.

Lu Wanglou sat here in a daze like this, and he didn't come back to his senses until someone walked into the main hall.

"Sect Master, this is the list of disciples to be recruited." The disciple who came to deliver the document put it on the table.

"Knowing ......" Lu Wanglou just wanted to say that he knew, but he was suddenly dumbfounded, the disciple who sent the document put it behind the document, ignored Lu Wanglou, and turned straight away, even the sect master who called when he just sent the document seemed to be just normal etiquette, and had nothing to do with Lu Wanglou.

Looking at the back of the disciple who turned to leave, Lu Wanglou shook his head bitterly.

Neither reconciled nor powerless.

"Ah......h

Is there a more sloppy sect master than him?

"Huh? What are you sighing for? A faint voice came from behind itself.

Lu Wanglou's body stiffened, and he quickly stood up and turned around: "The junior didn't sigh. ”

Appearing behind Lu Wanglou was a man dressed in black, standing with his hands in his hands at this time, his face was gentle, and his expression was with a faint smile.

"Did I hear it wrong?" Mo Ci smiled.

"No, no, no, the real person didn't hear it wrong...... Lu Wanglou was about to break out in a cold sweat: "Juniors, juniors just think of the books I read a few days ago and can't help but feel sad for the plot......" His voice became smaller and smaller under Mo Ci's faint gaze.

Everyone thought that Mo Ci was a gentle person, but Lu Wanglou knew best how ruthless and ruthless Mo Ci's nature was.

After all, his current position as a neglected suzerain, with no power and dignity, is due to Mo Ci......

Now, he himself is a puppet sect master, a puppet in his hands.

If it weren't for the above Tribulation Ancestor who came out from time to time to take a look, and there were still two Returning Void Ancestors around Mo Ci staring, it was very likely that Lu Wanglou's position as the sect master was no longer guaranteed, and Mo Ci would have gone to sit on the position of the sect master by himself.

It's not that only monks in the god refining period can be in charge, the main reason is that the higher the cultivation level of the monks in the god refining period, the longer the retreat time, it is impossible to be in charge of the sect once, and even the sect doesn't care, besides, there are too many miscellaneous things in the sect, and most people with advanced cultivation don't want to involve too much in these things and disturb their state of mind.

Over time, most of the masters are in the refining period, and if they break through this cultivation, they will automatically give up their position as the head of the sect and retreat to cultivate.

After all, for monks, it is their own cultivation that is more important than power, money, etc.

It is rare for a great monk like Mo Ci to return to the void period to be greedy for power.

As far as Lu Wanglou knew, Mo Ci Ancestor probably wanted to grasp power so much because of the three thousand avenues he had built.

Because of Mo Ci's intervention, now the disciples of the entire Beixun Sect almost all know that Lu Wanglou himself is a puppet sect master, and because of Mo Ci's oppression, although Lu Wanglou still has the cultivation of the God Refining Period, there are not many disciples in the Beixun Sect who respect him at all.

Mo Ci didn't pay attention to Lu Wanglou's panicked appearance at this time, and walked forward and picked up the documents on the table.

The document was sent by Dongchu, and the things on it were not so much a discussion as a notice.

Mo Ci's brows furrowed, his breath became cold, and the whole person seemed to be a little angry.

"Eastern Chu faction...... What a number one pie! Chang Heng Ghost Jun is such a big matter, he didn't even notify us and solved it alone! Mo Ci laughed angrily. Although he was gentle on the surface, he was arrogant on the inside, and now the attitude of the Eastern Chu faction not informing him of this notice made him very angry.

Mo Ci threw the paperwork to the ground and walked away.

Lu Wanglou didn't squat down quietly until Mo Ci left, picking up the document that Mo Ci had thrown down.

He thought about it for a moment and carefully opened the paperwork.

Just as Mo Ci said when he was angry, the Eastern Chu faction was like informing them, and simply said that the ghost cultivator tried to resurrect Chang Heng Ghost Monarch, and the Eastern Chu faction had been resolved.

It's no wonder that Mo Ci is angry, the Eastern Chu faction solved the matter quietly, and only came to inform the other sects afterwards, this attitude is as if they are not equal to the Eastern Chu faction. Even other sects will be as angry as Mo Ci.

The Eastern Chu faction has been strong and developed over the years, and has developed the arrogance of the so-called first sect, and when it is talked about outside, it will always say that the four major sects are spoken, but who doesn't know that the Eastern Chu faction is getting stronger and stronger, and it is a veritable first sect.

Lu Wanglou put the paperwork on the table and looked at the sky outside, at this hour, Old Ancestor Yun and Old Ancestor Ye should still be in the Nine Coffin Cliff.

There are a total of nine sarcophagi on the edge of the Nine Coffin Cliff, and the things inside the sarcophagus seem to be very important, these ancestors will often guard the nine sarcophagi there, protecting them, no matter how urgent the situation outside is, the Nine Coffin Cliff must be guarded by at least one ancestor.

It stands to reason that he, as the sect master, should know what is in the sarcophagus, but in the end, it is a puppet, and Mo Ci has no intention of letting him know.

He finally glanced at the sect master's hall, shook his hand, and said in his heart that if he wanted to get out of Mo Ci's control, he had to take this step, he didn't know what the future would be after this step, but even if this step was an abyss, he didn't regret it.

Minami-no Temple

"Amitabha."

The Sanskrit sound in the temple is bursting, and the sound of the monks chanting is endless, which makes people feel calm.

"Uncle Abbot." The monk of the temple clasped his hands together and recited a Buddha name.

This superintendent of the temple is a wordless generation, with profound Buddhism and outstanding talent, and it must not be long before he breaks through the refining period and restores his common name.

There is such a rule in Nanwu Temple that monks who have cultivated to break through the god refining period can restore their common name, and the reason for this is only because of some things in the past.

There are too many monks in the temple, and there are often others who are confused, and this matter is still very helpless in Nanwu Temple, so this rule is set.

The left and right are just changing some subtle places, changing names, for these monks, they have always been disciples of Nan Mu Temple, cause and effect have been concluded, and restoring the common name cannot cut off their cause and effect with Nan Wu Temple.

"Amitabha, the poor monk has left the temple so far, can something happen?" Mu Cangbo asked.

Wuchen closed his eyes and thought for a moment before replying: "Uncle Hui, yesterday the Eastern Chu sent a document about Chang Heng Ghost Monarch. ”

"Chang Heng Ghost Monarch?" Mu Cangbo's eyes widened slightly.

"Yes." Wuchen said: "The Eastern Chu faction found out that the ghost cultivator wanted to resurrect Changheng Ghost Monarch, but fortunately found out and stopped the ghost cultivator. ”

"Dongchu has been solved?" Mu Cangbo was stunned.

"Yes." Dust-free road.

Mu Cangbo shook his head and sighed.

"Did you inform Uncle Si of this?"

"Uncle Monastery is in retreat, but the younger generation has not informed him." Wuchen said.

Mu Cangbo nodded: "You go, the poor monk will go and inform him." ”

Wuchen recited the Buddha name: "Uncle Shi walks slowly." ”

Mu Cangbo slowly left the place.

Sixi Pavilion was in the meditation room to understand the Dharma, faintly noticed that someone was coming, after opening his eyes, he saw Mu Cangbo coming slowly.

"Why did Senior Brother come?" Sixi Pavilion said lightly.

"The ghost cultivator tried to resurrect Chang Heng Ghost Monarch, and the Eastern Chu faction discovered and resolved the matter." Mu Cangbo said concisely.

"Very good." Sixi Pavilion has always been indifferent to fame and fortune, and he doesn't care too much about anything, and he also understands that Mu Cangbo came because of the attitude of the Eastern Chu faction, but he doesn't care.

Mu Cangbo sighed, and also understood that for Sixi Pavilion, he didn't care about anything.

"The Great Contest of the Four Great Sects is about to begin." Mu Cangbo changed the topic: "Except for those small and medium-sized sects, the leaders of our four major sects must have at least one true person, and it is inconvenient for me to leave, so I can only ask you." ”

The four major sects each have their own side, and many small and medium-sized sects have their own sects, and these four major sects will establish a venue in one of the four major sects every time.

This year's Dabi is in the East Chu faction.
