The next day, a high platform was erected on the square of the main hall, it seems that the place where the birthday banquet was held is located here, there are many disciples of Liuyun Valley, and they are all armed with martial arts, so it is arranged very quickly, and after a while, the kung fu has been properly arranged, the red carpet, the chic tables and chairs, the gorgeous high platform, with the beautiful scenery in the lake beside him, is naturally beautiful, and the banquet can be set up in this beautiful environment, I am afraid that only Liuyun Valley can present.

"Uncle Shi, after celebrating our birthday, are we going back to Qingyangmen?" After tossing for so long, Ming Xuan was really tired.

"Well, that's over, and we'll be able to quit tomorrow. Xingyun nodded and said, living elsewhere is indeed quite uncomfortable.

"That's great, I can finally go back!" The hustle and bustle of life made Ming Xuan quite uncomfortable, and the quiet life in the mountains was more suitable for him.

"Hehe, it's strange to say, other disciples are eager to have the opportunity to go down the mountain to breathe, especially this kind of beauty in Liuyun Valley, they will definitely rush to come, you are good, not only do you not cherish it, but you also want to go back. Xingyun joked, but after getting along with him for so long, he also had a general understanding of Mingxuan's character, and this kind of noisy place was indeed not what he liked.

"I think it's better to stay at Qingyangmen, it's too noisy outside. Ming Xuan said truthfully.

"If you want to be born, you have to enter the world first, and if you don't enter the mortal world and do some worldly things, how can you be out of the world? Xingyun said quite Zen.

"Uncle Shi, the disciple doesn't understand. "Ming Xuan has the meaning of unpredictable Xingyun.

"Those who cultivate the Tao must walk more in this mortal world, understand the joys, sorrows, sorrows, birth, old age, sickness and death of this world, care more about the common people in the world, and then rely on their own cultivation to do more good things for the common people, and do chivalrous deeds, so that they can be regarded as successful, instead of blindly waiting for their own cultivation in the mountains, which is impossible to gain. Xingyun changed a popular saying.

The disciple came to his senses and remembered the teachings of his uncle. Ming Xuan bowed and replied, at this point, he was indeed biased.

"Only those who are worried about the world and feel the mortal world can comprehend the true Tao, and it is impossible to attain positive results by blindly cultivating in the mountains. Xingyun said in a serious voice.

"Disciple understands, in the future, he will definitely walk more in the rivers and lakes and perform the duties of a true cultivator!" Ming Xuan said solemnly, the original intention of what he wanted to learn martial arts was to be chivalrous and righteous.

"Well, the son can be taught!" Xingyun said with a smile, walking in the rivers and lakes for a long time, dealing with all kinds of people, just in terms of understanding this aspect of mortal dust, Qingyangmen is afraid that no one can compare to Xingyun.

In fact, the reason why Ming Xuan was in a hurry to go back was not only because he didn't like the hustle and bustle of the outside world, but also because he didn't say anything more important, of course, he couldn't say it, that is, because he had been running around outside for a month, and he had no time for martial arts to practice, so he had to stop temporarily, but after resting at night, he would still insist on practicing qi and meditating, so now that Ming Xuan's qi practice has reached the peak of the capable, a breakthrough is possible at any time, and his martial arts cultivation progress has slowed down, and if he continues like this, there may be an imbalance, which can't help but make Ming Xuan not cautious。

The time is gradually approaching noon, the time for the start of the birthday banquet is getting closer and closer, everyone also began to take their seats one after another, the square began to gradually become lively, everyone is looking for familiar people to sit together, Qingyangmen and Xiaoyaomen are both big factions, and they are also more familiar with each other, so they naturally sit together, it just so happens that Mingxuan and Duan Hefeng are also more familiar, and they don't feel so embarrassed to each other.

"Brother Gu, we are going to leave after the birthday banquet, and I am in a hurry, so I will say goodbye to you first. The elders chatted with each other, and the two juniors also started talking.

"Why are you in such a hurry? We'll leave tomorrow. It seems that not only Ming Xuan doesn't like this kind of hustle and bustle life, but Duan Hefeng's master and apprentice also seem to be very uncomfortable.

"The old man has always liked to be quiet, but he was appointed by the elders as a foreign deacon, and he only got to be entertained everywhere, but every time as long as the ceremony was completed, he would immediately resign and leave, and he never wanted to stay longer. "The last time they were in Qingyangmen, they came to observe the selection of disciples, and it was already evening when it was over, and they still didn't stop any longer, and Starry Night took their leave.

"That's really embarrassing for him. Ming Xuan said with deep sympathy.

"There's no way around it, don't look at the hustle and bustle here now, in fact, there are definitely not a few people who feel the same way!" Duan Hefeng said in agreement.

"In this way, Mrs. Jingyi's birthday banquet seems to be really puzzling. "Cultivators don't like to be noisy, Master Jingyi has been cultivating for many years, and he should prefer purity, so how can he make a big deal about longevity?

"Do you think this birthday banquet is just for longevity?" Duan Hefeng said rather mysteriously, obviously as if he knew something else.

"Oh, I want to hear about it. Being seduced by him like this, Ming Xuan immediately became interested.

"I've also heard what people say, if you can't do it accurately, I won't mislead you, the birthday banquet is about to start, you just need to wait a moment to know. Duan Hefeng didn't seem to be sure, but he didn't want to say more.

"Oh, well. Ming Xuan was interested, and when he saw Duan Hefeng, he didn't want to say more, so he didn't ask any more.

While speaking, noon has arrived, all the guests have arrived, and the tables in the square have been filled, and it seems that the birthday banquet is about to begin.

Sure enough, the sound of silk and bamboo suddenly sounded, the birthday banquet officially began, on the high platform, Jingyi Shitai was wearing a big red longevity robe, looking quite happy, in everyone's congratulations, she slowly walked to the front desk, it seemed that there was something to say, everyone also quieted down.

"Fellow Daoists, first of all, thank you for coming thousands of miles to congratulate the old body on his birthday, and thank the old body in advance!" After speaking, Mrs. Jingyi bowed deeply to everyone, and almost all of the people present were her juniors, so they naturally didn't dare to accept the salute, so they got up and saluted back.

"On the occasion of the 100th birthday banquet of the old body, everyone gathered together, and I still have something to announce about the old body. It seems that this is what Duan Hefeng said.

"Twenty years ago, I was wrongly loved by my master, and my fellow teachers and sisters raised me, so that I stole the first elder of the outer valley of Liuyun Valley, but in fact, I have always been uneasy in my heart, how can I be in such a high position, and one term is twenty years, after thinking about it, I will finally feel embarrassed to take on the big responsibility, so I want to take advantage of the gathering of everyone to announce to you that from today onwards, I will resign as the first elder and be replaced by Elder Jingfeng, the master of the Hongmei Gate! As soon as Master Jingyi said this, the audience was in an uproar! Obviously, they didn't know that there was such a serious matter announced at the time of the birthday banquet, and even the disciples of Liuyun Valley were talking about it, but it was the elders in the valley who looked as usual, obviously they already knew about it in advance.

"After announcing this, the old body finally relieved his burden, and his whole body was a lot more relaxed! Thank you again for your support, and the birthday banquet will continue!" Jing Yi said with a smile, it seemed that he was really happy, and the sound of silk and bamboo also sounded again, and the surroundings were jubilant.

Since Mrs. Jingyi announced it on such a scene, naturally there is no room for falsehood, although everyone talked about it, but they were not too surprised, originally this was just the internal affairs of Liuyun Valley, everyone just made a witness, since the matter has passed, then it has passed.

"Brother Duan, what you said before is this matter, right?" Ming Xuan asked in a low voice.

"Well, I also heard what others said, but I didn't expect it to be true!" Duan Hefeng was also quite surprised.

"This is also a little strange, this is the internal affairs of Liuyun Valley, why should it be announced in such a public occasion?" Ming Xuan felt that there was a bit of a big fuss.

"You don't know this, the outer valley of Liuyun Valley, the outer courtyard of Qingyang Gate and the outsiders of our Xiaoyao sect are the same, not only the place where the junior disciples learn and art, but also in charge of the external affairs of the sect, and the communication between the sect and other factions, and my master and the head of the Xingyun Dao can only be regarded as errands, if they abdicate, they will naturally have to announce to the world, so that all factions are clear about this matter, in order to show respect, and also so that the successor can do his best to take the throne and continue to maintain good exchanges with various factions. "Duan Hefeng has been running around with his master all year round, and he has gained a lot.

"Oh, I see!" Ming Xuan finally understood.

"Look, Elder Jing Yi and Elder Jing Feng have come over to thank you!" Duan Hefeng said, immediately interrupting the conversation between the two.

"The head of the Dao of the Clouds, the chief of the Immeasurable Dao, I am tired of you coming to congratulate the old man on his birthday for such a long time, I really can't take it anymore, a glass of water and wine, to show my gratitude!" said Mrs. Jingyi, their seats were close to the high platform, and naturally they were the first to come to their table.

"Where to say, it should be!" "Master Jingyi is their elder, and they naturally dare not slack off.

"Senior Sister Jingfeng will be the chief elder of the Outer Valley in the future, and all kinds of affairs will be handled by her in the future, I hope the two of you can cooperate with her more. While thanking her back, Mrs. Jingyi also made Mrs. Jingfeng familiar with them by the way, so that she could succeed more smoothly.

"In the future, there will be two Laos!" Jingfeng Master said too generously.

"Cooperate fully!" replied both at the same time.

"In addition, Senior Nephew Xingyun, Xin Chen will bother you to take care of it more!" Before leaving, Mrs. Jingyi also specially advised.

"No problem, don't worry!" Xingyun said with a smile.

"Uncle Shi, what Mrs. Jingyi said about Xin Chen just now is Xu Xinchen, right?" After Mrs. Jingyi left, Ming Xuan immediately asked in a low voice.

"Yes, you already know each other?" Xingyun said with a smile.

"I know it, but why do I want you to take care of it!" Ming Xuan asked puzzled.

"Oh, because she's going to Qingyangmen with us!" Xingyun said with an unchanged face.

"Ahh
