Chapter 174: Abdication to make way for Xian
Wan Cheng Mountain, Lotus North Peak.
After settling the bitter endless, Liangchen and Qianqiu Sect Master respectfully retreated.
The two of them walked on the bluestone road in the mountains, and the blood stains on the ground had not yet had time to be cleaned, and sword marks and knife wounds were messily dotted on the surrounding rock walls.
"Senior really agreed to go to Heavenly Sword Mountain with you to suppress demons?" asked the Qianqiu Sect Master with surprise in his heart.
"Yes, and the Sword Sect and the Qingfeng Sect must form an alliance, and in the future, they will rely on each other to advance and retreat together. Liangchen replied.
"Ah! Qingfeng Sect now has Boundless Seniors, where can we still use our Sword Sect?" When the Qianqiu Sect Master heard this, he thought that he had heard it wrong.
"Well, I think so too, but since the senior said so, he must have deliberately saved some face for the Sword Sect. Liangchen didn't tell him about those future agreements, so he naturally considered the current mood of the Qianqiu Sect Master.
"As long as the Boundless Senior publicly says that he has an alliance with my Sword Sect, no one in this Zhongzhou will dare to fight the idea of the Sword Sect!
The senior is definitely looking at your face, junior brother, so you can sell my Sword Sect a heavenly favor!" The Qianqiu Sect Master pondered, his face gradually relaxed, and the gloomy aura that was locked between his eyebrows from before suddenly dissipated.
After all, although the Sword Sect has solved the situation of life and death, how to face the encroachment of the eight forces in the future is a more difficult problem.
"Senior brother, don't say that, the seniors intend to support the Sword Sect, and they must also take a fancy to the ability of the senior brother! If you can take this opportunity to merge the Eastern and Western Sword Sects into one, it will also be a long-cherished wish of the senior brother!" Liangchen looked at the Qianqiu Sect Master and said solemnly.
"Alas~ Little junior brother, I can't hide it, this sacrificial sword array consumes not only mana, but also essence blood and sword intent, although the little junior brother has not been able to cast it for a long time, but I have also consumed nearly half of my cultivation. This is almost half of my life's work, so it is already a great luck to be able to return to the middle stage of the Yuan Infant in the future, and it is unlikely that I want to regain my original realm!"
The Qianqiu Sect Master sighed, and then continued: "If the Sword Sect wants to regain its strength, a strong Sect Master is naturally the most basic requirement. Do you feel that the cultivation in the middle of the Yuan Infant is complete, how can you be able to take charge of the Sword Sect again?"
Liangchen was about to answer, when the Thousand Autumn Sect Master continued:
"I've thought about it these days. When the master closes the ceremony in a few days, I will announce my abdication and give way to Xian, and hand over the position of sect master to you!" Sect Master Qianqiu patted Liangchen on the shoulder with his hand, "The burden of reviving the strength of the Sword Sect in the future naturally depends on you!"
"How can this be done! No, no, no! Senior brother, you are just messing up! How can I dare to sit on the throne of the master of the Sword Sect!" When Liangchen heard this, he immediately waved his hands and refused continuously.
"How can you not do it? You are in charge of the sword cave, command ten thousand swords, drive away the immortal sword array, cut the yin and yang double swords, and cut off the one-arm of the heavenly man!
Wheel cultivation, you are already the first person in the Sword Sect, in terms of conduct, you sacrificed your life to go back to the mountain to rescue us, you are definitely the purest sword heart. This sect master, you should be the most suitable!" The Qianqiu Sect Master seemed to have been thinking for a long time, and his tone was resolute, as if he had already made up his mind.
"Senior brother, in terms of realm, you are already above me, and you only gave up cultivation for the sake of the survival of the Sword Sect, and you will definitely have a chance to return to the peak in the future. In terms of heart, you live and die together with the Sword Sect, and you have the great plan of the Sword Sect to unite with you, and you are the backbone of the Sword Sect. Don't be cranky!" Liangchen said with admiration.
"Senior brother, don't shirk it, if I sit in the position of this sect master again, I will be laughed at! The people who disobey me are not only people outside, I'm afraid that there are many people in this Sword Sect who are not convinced! Alas~" The Qianqiu Sect Master sighed heavily.
After all, as a super sect that rules half of Zhongzhou's sphere of influence, if it is not even in the late Yuanying period, this will definitely be passed on as a joke by Zhongzhou monks!
"Senior Brother Qianqiu, I was called 'Nanfeng Eleven Swords' by others before, and the entire cultivation world in Zhongzhou used me as a laughing stock, how could I ever care about this?"
"Little junior brother.. I..."The Qianqiu Sect Master was about to say something more, but was directly interrupted by Liangchen.
"Senior brother, there is no need to mention this matter again! I will definitely not sit on the position of this sect master!"
The two of them were silent for a moment, one walked towards the Sword Cave, and the other walked towards the main hall.
The realm of good days has not yet been fully restored, and today because of the arrival of the two god-transforming monks, this is the only way to go out of the customs to receive it.
He had already made an agreement with Ku Wuya that he would set off for Heavenly Sword Mountain in three days, so he had to hurry up and recover his realm.
And the damage to the Qianqiu Sect Master's realm was even more serious, but he had to reconnect with the scattered disciples of the Sword Sect and the hidden power that had been lurking, and in addition, he had to find a way to activate the teleportation formation that had been abandoned for a long time, so that Liangchen and Ku Wuwu could rush to Heavenly Sword Mountain.
So, he barely had time to rest.
The sword talisman roared, and the sword order shuttled, and I saw a ray of light with a piece of information, shooting in all directions.
However, half a day later, the originally deserted Wanren Mountain Range finally ushered in more than a dozen sword lights again.
"Xiling Sword Sect's Thorn Cloud Sword returns to the mountain with its disciples!" As soon as the sword light flickered, an old man with a beard with a face as white as a jujube appeared as a figure, and then shouted loudly at the mountain gate.
The clouds open and the fog disperses, and the peach blossoms are one after another, showing a channel.
More than a dozen sword lights drew rainbows and shot into the mountains.
"Elder Thorn Cloud!" the Thousand Autumn Sect Master greeted.
"It's really you, the Sect Master of Qianqiu!" The bearded old man suddenly looked relieved when he saw the Sect Master of Qianqiu.
"Is it possible for the Xiling faction... These are the only people left?" Sect Master Qianqiu looked at several young people with nervous faces behind him, and asked in a low voice.
"Sect Master, it's not. Because we don't know what the situation is in the Wanren Mountain, even if we receive your personal message, we don't dare to believe it easily, for fear that it is a trick of the Sword Sect, so we sent a team of vanguards... These are good boys, who have come to die with me, an old man!"
"It's really the sect master, what are you still doing in a daze?Come and meet the sect master!" Elder Thorn Cloud turned around and scolded, but there was a smile on his face.
"See Sect Master Qianqiu!" several young people bowed and saluted, their faces gradually softened, and their eyes became a little more vivid.
"Get up. It's naturally good to be cautious!Now that the Sword Sect has suffered this catastrophe, it can't be too careful!" As soon as the Qianqiu Sect Master heard him, his heart suddenly felt better, and his face stretched a little.
"I'll send a message to them and let them come. As he spoke, Elder Thorn Cloud took out a sword and ordered it to move repeatedly, and the sword made the light flow, and then with a tremble, it flew out of his hand, turning into a ray of light and disappearing into the sky.
"Sword Saint, old man, has fallen?" After finishing everything, Elder Thorn Cloud asked cautiously.
"Well, in order to save us, the master and the sword have not been united, and they will sleep in the mountains for a long time!" replied the Qianqiu Sect Master.
Hearing this, Elder Thorn Cloud looked sad, and after a little thought, he spoke again: "The two old monsters of the Sword Sect were really killed?"
"I was killed here on the spot by the Nanfeng Peak Lord!" "The Qianqiu Sect Master pointed to the place where the two of them fell, and said categorically.
"This!" When Elder Thorn Cloud heard the transmission before, he felt that the matter was too unbelievable, so he only brought a few people to explore the truth.
Unexpectedly, all this turned out to be true!
"May the master rest forever in the Ten Thousand Thousand Mountains!
"May the master rest forever in the Ten Thousand Thousand Mountains!
Elder Thorn Cloud turned in the direction of the Sword Mansion, knelt down on his knees, and shouted loudly with a solemn face!
Several young people behind him also knelt down and echoed in unison!
Hearing these shouts, the sorrow that the Qianqiu Sect Master had suppressed for a long time suddenly surged out, and one of them couldn't hold back, his eyes turned red, and big tears rolled down!
