Some secrets last forever, but some news spread as if a spell had been cast, Mu Xingqiu had just walked out of Zuo Liuying's room, and before he had taken a few steps, he saw Yang Qingyin running in a hurry, followed by a large group of Pangshan Taoist priests.

"You're quitting Pangshan?"

"Hmm. Mu Xingqiu nodded, and there was no hairpin in his bun.

"Why?" Yang Qingyin was too stunned, he didn't get angry as usual, and the other Taoist priests also caught up, all of them were as confused as her, and the bald man flew around Mu Xingqiu and sniffed him twice, as if he felt that Brother Xiao Qiu had also been replaced.

"I'm sorry, I didn't tell you in advance, I made my decision a few days ago, it wasn't a whim, but I have to ask the high Taoist priest for advice first. Mu Xingqiu said loudly.

"What's their opinion?"

"They allowed me to quit Pang Shan, and they had to think about my other requests for a while, and then give me an answer in a few days. ”

The Taoist priests were even more confused, Yang Qingyin shook his head and stared at Mu Xingqiu extremely strictly, as if this would force him to tell the truth, "Wait, you quit Pang Mountain, and you are no longer a Taoist priest, and you still make a request to the Taoist priest?" She paused, looking up and down at the Taoist priest five steps away, "Didn't Zuo Liuying dig out your heart and wash it?"

Shen Hao spoke for Mu Xingqiu, "Don't worry, let Xiaoqiu explain, he must have his reasons for doing this." Then he added uncertainly, "Is it for Xin Youtao?"

"I'm doing this for a lot of people, but not for one person. Mu Xingqiu simply spoke to Daoist Pangshan in the courtyard. I don't care if the two high-level Taoists in Pangshan will hear it, "The Demon Slaying Society was formed by low-level Taoists, and from the very beginning, it was said that they would get rid of the shackles of high-level Taoists. I don't even want their guidance, but everyone knows that the influence of high-level Taoists is everywhere, and as long as they are still within the Dao system, no one can be completely independent. ”

"Taoism has never been a place to do what you want, and for more than 130,000 years, it has been bound by a series of agreements, rules, and customs. The high-level Taoist priests are not yet free, let alone us? I want to ask you a question, the demon slaying meeting is an impulsive game in the end. Or is it a well-thought-out plan?"

"Some people join the Demon Slaying Society to survive the Heart Fire Tribulation, when they were in Broken Flow City, Pang Shan used to get great help from the Taoist priest of the Broken Flow City, but now the shape is different from Broken Flow City. We're not guarding an isolated city. It's guarding the entire human world, we have to attack, we keep attacking, and it is impossible to fight and retreat as soon as we want. This will be a protracted war, and everyone's participation can add fuel to the final victory, and everyone's withdrawal may also affect the balance of strength between the enemy and the enemy. ”

"What I'm going to build is an army, an army of Taoist priests. There may not be a large number of participants, but everyone must be prepared for a long war. So. Not only me, but all Taoist priests who want to join the Demon Slaying Society have to quit the Taoist system, only in this way is the real army, not the kind of game that returns to their comfort zone when they are tired of playing. ”

This is what Mu Xingqiu wants to say to everyone, he once refused to join the Demon Slayer Society, because he knew too little about this organization at that time, but he vaguely felt that its structure was very loose, and it was likely to evolve into an empty game in the end.

Dozens of Pangshan Taoist priests looked at each other, and it was difficult to accept such a fierce statement for a while, and they were all silent, but the Taoist instinct that had been ingrained in their hearts was touched, which made their hearts turbulent.

"I'll quit Pang Mountain too!" the bald man was the first to speak, carefully plucking the hairpin with a strand of hair, holding it in front of his eyes, and his rhetoric suddenly disappeared, "I...... Brother Xiaoqiu......"

Mu Xingqiu took the hairpin with a smile and reinserted it into the bald man's bun, "My decision has been considered for a few days, so I hope you don't rush to make a decision, think about it for a few more days, unless you really want to participate in this war, otherwise, don't follow in my footsteps." Think clearly, breaking away from the Taoist system and participating in a war that will end in an unknown year or month will have a great impact on your cultivation. ”

Seeing that Mu Xingqiu was serious, the sternness and dissatisfaction on Yang Qingyin's face disappeared instead, "Saying so much is all bad, do you want to scare everyone?

"The advantage is that you can follow what you think is the right path, slay demons in the way you think is right, and no longer be a fledgling under your wings, but fly high with your own strength. ”

Without cheering, Yang Qingyin looked at Mu Xingqiu with wide eyes, "It's not like a benefit at all, and the tone of your voice now is just like Shen Geng, like a liar." ”

Mu Xingqiu smiled again, "Shen Geng is a liar, in order to gain everyone's trust, many times he tells the truth. I said, don't rush to make a decision......"

Another group of Taoist priests rushed into the courtyard, all the Taoist families had it, and soon the backyard of the Pangshan Taoist Hall was crowded, where Zuo Liuying and Shen Jixian lived, and Mu Xingqiu took the lead and motioned everyone to go to the front yard.

Along the way, Mu Xingqiu was surrounded by hundreds of gazes, and he was like walking in a jungle full of thorns, and every step he took had to exert great strength.

The front yard was larger enough to accommodate the low-level Taoist priests who were still coming, and almost all the members of the Demon Slaying Society in the Imperial Capital had arrived, and this was the first plenary meeting after the Convergence of the Dao.

Mu Xingqiu stood on several steps, facing everyone, and said his decision and reasons again, "Please don't make a decision now, don't even make a decision in the imperial capital, go back to Daotong, and feel the life and cultivation there again, if you still want to participate in the demon extermination war at that time, then please come to me." Ten days, a month, a year, whatever you think about for as long as you want. ”

"You have to join the Demon Slayer Society...... Quitting the Dao system forever?" a Taoist priest in the front row asked, his face frightened, after listening to Mu Xingqiu's words, he still felt incredible.

"Not necessarily. This is one of the requests I made to the senior Taoists, to allow the low-level Taoists to return to the Dao after a few years, but the time is not arbitrary, the shortest is three years, you have to make it clear when you quit, if you regret leaving the Demon Slayer Society halfway. The Dao system can't accept you. ”

There was also the possibility of returning to the Dao system, which made everyone breathe a sigh of relief, even those who didn't want to quit the Dao system at all.

"Did the High Daoist agree?"

"It would be a few days before they gave me an answer. I can't predict what they're thinking, so I hope you don't rush into a decision, because it's not the same as deciding which subject to go into or which spell to learn, and it's a big change. If there is no group of truly independent Taoist priests, how can there be an independent demon slaying society?"

The crowd was silent for a moment, and a voice asked, "How many years do you plan to quit?"

Mu Xingqiu didn't find anyone who spoke, and his gaze swept over the top of the crowd. "Forever. ”

The crowd was silent again, and Yang Qingyuan, a Taoist priest from Qishan, said loudly: "It is not only the Taoist priest himself who kills demons, but also magic weapons, pills, and various materials. The Demon Slayer will be independent from the Dao system, what should I do with these things?"

"This is also one of the requests I have made to the High Daoists, and I don't want to go into too much detail until I get a clear answer. And I will also try to convince mortals to join this war. They can also provide some supplies. ”

The question and answer lasted for nearly half an hour. Mu Xingqiu expounded his thoughts and also reserved some things, after all, in addition to withdrawing from the Pangshan Dao system, many of his plans had not yet been approved by the high Daoist, and they were just empty pavilions.

The Taoist priests gradually dispersed, and some people felt that there was no need to say goodbye to Mu Xingqiu, but most of them still nodded to him. Said he would seriously consider it.

There were fewer and fewer people left, and a Taoist priest asked unceremoniously: "If everyone is unwilling to quit the Taoist system." Who is the name of the Demon Slayer Society for?"

"The name doesn't matter, as long as anyone in the Dao system speaks, I'm willing to give it up. Mu Xingqiu smiled, but the Taoist priest was embarrassed and took his leave.

In the end, only the Taoist priest of Pangshan remained, and Mu Xingqiu persuaded everyone to retire and go back to his room to rest, but reminded the Taoist priest in charge of guarding the gate that if someone from the Longbin Association visited, he should be notified immediately.

The bald man stopped listlessly on the table, and suddenly sighed, "Alas, I feel as if I have a heart again, and I am still in the same place, but it is as heavy as an iron block, and it sinks little by little, and it has no head." ”

"Even if you are still a disciple of Pang Shan, you can stay by my side, this is your choice, Pang Shan will not interfere. Mu Xingqiu persuaded.

"Pang Shan will not interfere, but they will use me to speak, and they will use me to spy on you. As long as I withdraw from Pang Mountain, they will no longer be able to use me as a magic weapon. I want to stay with Brother Xiaoqiu, but I will never be a spy!" The bald man supported himself with three strands of hair, showing a bit of fighting spirit, which only lasted for a short while, and then fell back to the table, "Don't worry about me, let me be sad for a while, just get used to it." It's strange, the position of my heart is sinking a little bit, and I seem to have grown a lot taller......"

Yang Qingyin entered uninvited, stood at the door, and stared at Mu Xingqiu for a long time, "You are no longer a Pangshan Taoist, can you still live here?"

"Well, Zuo Liuying allowed me to stay here for a while. ”

"I've thought about it. ”

"You don't have to rush ......"

"Like you, I'm not on a whim. Ten years ago, I felt inexplicably anxious, but ...... I don't know what I want, I'm just messing around in the Dao. Now I understand, it turns out that I am just timid, and I am used to walking on the flat road, and I forget that the wilderness next to me is also the road. You're bold enough to get ahead of me, but don't be too complacent, you can line up when there is a road, and it's another thing to tell who goes first and who comes last, and then it's even more difficult to get everyone to go in one direction. ”

"Thank you. Mu Xingqiu said.

Yang Qingyin turned and left.

"What does the old lady want to say?" asked the bald man in confusion, "what kind of road is in the wilderness, she wants to go into the forest, I can lead the way......

The Taoist priest of Pangshan, who was guarding the door, hurriedly ran over, holding a letter of invitation in his hand, "A talisman master, leave this and leave." ”

This is what Mu Xingqiu is waiting for, and Long Binhui can finally no longer ignore his existence.

After opening the invitation and reading it, Mu Xingqiu was a little surprised, the person who invited him was not any of the Great Fu Master of the Longbin Society, but the emperor's grandson Fu Meng, the fiancé of the princess of Xijieguo.
