Chapter 214: Ye Yunqi’s Grandmaster?

Chapter 214: Ye Yunqi’s Grandmaster?
All the elders were silent, and the joyous atmosphere brought by the breakthrough of Yuqing Peak's old leader Xu Donghua to the Nascent Soul stage a few days ago was swept away.

It is generally acknowledged in the Sanqing Sect that Sect Leader Wen is the strongest, followed by Duanmu Qingyuan.

As for Xu Donghua, who had just broken through to the Nascent Soul stage, he naturally ranked third.

Wen Tingyu also became serious, sat upright, and asked, "Elder Duanmu, how do you think that person compares to me?"

Duanmu Qingyuan hesitated for words, and finally said: "He and I only fought once, and I didn't feel much, so it's hard to compare."

Wen Tingyu and everyone present already understood that although Duanmu Qingyuan did not answer the question directly, everyone present was a shrewd person.

If you think the other person is not as good as Wen Tingyu, just say it directly.

This kind of vague statement is difficult to compare.

Even if the other party is not stronger than Wen Tingyu, he is probably not far behind.

The elders discussed the matter.

"When did such a person appear among the demons?"

"I think he is not from the demon clan. Some time ago, we held a demon-suppression meeting. Sect Master Wen and Elder Duanmu overpowered the two demons from the demon clan, Tiger, Rhinoceros, and Fierce Yuan. We worked together to kill the Golden Core demon that was about to break through to the Nascent Soul stage. Such a brilliant victory is truly a brilliant achievement. If this Nascent Soul ancestor was from the demon clan, he would definitely not stand idly by."

"Could he be a demon cultivator? If so, why did he only take action this time? If he destroyed the Sanqing Sect's spiritual stone mine, it would bring shame to the Sanqing Sect..."

"...Are you still expecting this to happen?"

"That's definitely not the case. I just think it's strange. Besides, if the Nascent Soul ancestor among the demonic cultivators dares to cross the border between righteousness and demons and come to my righteous land, wouldn't he be afraid of being attacked by everyone and perishing outside?"

Looking at the elders discussing it, none of them had any idea.

Xu Donghua, the old master of Yuqing Peak, laughed and said, "No matter how much we guess, we still can't guess the result. In my opinion, we don't need to worry too much. Didn't that person say that this is the cycle of cause and effect? ​​After countering him, he called it a day. He may not take action in the next battle between good and evil."

Some elders nodded secretly, but some elders questioned: "The battle between good and evil is of great importance. We can't rely on the other side not to take action."

This made some radical war advocates anxious. General Chen Yao, who had led the troops to meet Ye Yunqi at the border, was now one of them. He stood up suddenly and said loudly, "The battle between good and evil has been decided. No matter whether the other side takes action or not, the matter has been set and must be launched."

"Elder Chen Yao, please sit down. I didn't say we won't fight this battle."

Chen Yao snorted coldly, "This matter cannot be delayed any longer. The demons have already penetrated deep into our Sanqing Sect's territory. If we delay any further, I'm afraid we will have to fight this battle on our Sanqing Sect's territory! By then, let alone retaking Ningcheng, we may even be able to repeat what happened in Ningcheng three hundred years ago!"

"you!"

"Chen Yao, you...!"

All the elders suddenly became anxious, and even the wavering centrists were somewhat tempted. The demons were really going too far, so much so that some of the pure-cultivation factions who wanted to live a peaceful life felt extremely offended and had to support the pro-war faction.

"Okay, I think what Elder Chen Yao said is absolutely right." If Ye Yunqi were here, he would recognize the person who said this.

It was the old acquaintance Liu Zixi.

Liu Zixi stood up slowly. "The mantis stalks the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind it. But he doesn't know that someone is holding a slingshot underneath him. No matter how much he calculates, how can he calculate everything in the world? He needs to make preparations, but there is no perfect preparation! Now that the three ancestors of my Sanqing Sect are on par with each other, it is a prosperous situation that has not been seen in a thousand years. Why should he be timid?"

When Liu Zixi said this, his eyes suddenly narrowed and he said something that made everyone's expression change, even the three ancestors changed color.

"What's more, the spiritual veins of our Sanqing Sect have reached the point where they can no longer bear the burden. To support three ancestors, I would like to ask if they still have enough spiritual energy to break through? I would like to ask all the Jindan Zhenjun, do you still have the resources to break through to the Nascent Soul stage? If we take over Ningcheng, it will be enough to support three more ancestors! Even if we are unable to do so, it will be more than enough to support two ancestors!"

As soon as these words were spoken in the hall, everyone's expression changed.

Some people wanted to stand up and scold Liu Zixi for being so daring, but after raising their buttocks halfway, they sat down again tremblingly.

The expressions of the three old ancestors at the top also changed, but they did not speak a word in the end, nor did they make any eye contact or voice communication. So what were the people below scolding?

Wen Tingyu, Duanmu Qingyuan, and Xu Donghua.

The three ancestors looked at each other, and then Wen Tingyu sighed and said, "Liu Zixi said to Elder Liu, it is indeed a loyal statement. The spiritual veins of my Sanqing Sect have indeed reached their limit."

"This prosperous situation that has not been seen in a thousand years also brings pressure that has not been seen in a thousand years, right?"

"Elder Liu deserves a reward for his honest advice."

"Reward the sect for contributing three thousand."

Liu Zixi bowed and said, "It's just a word, how can it be worth three thousand contributions? The resources of the sect are tight now, and we elders should not be those who sit back and eat up all the resources. The ancients said that when you are in trouble, you must change, and change will lead to success. Now the situation is exhausted, and we should seek change."

Xu Donghua smiled amiably and said, "You should keep the gift given by the Sect Master. It is just for encouragement. I hope that those who come after you will learn from your outspokenness. What you said does make sense, but there are many people in the Sect who have concerns. You said before that you cannot predict everything, which is true, but it is also a good thing to plan and prepare a little more."

Liu Zixi frowned slightly. Was what Master Xu Donghua said a counter-tune?
But Xu Donghua continued, "I heard that Meizhuang is good at fortune-telling. Why don't we invite the owner of Meizhuang to be our guest and do some fortune-telling for him? This will also help to reassure everyone. What do you think?"

"Plum Manor?" Wen Tingyu nodded slowly, "That's a way to figure out what that sudden Yuanying ancestor is up to. In that case, I'll go to Plum Manor myself."

Duanmu Qingyuan slowly said, "I heard that the people in Meizhuang like the third-level magical water, which is produced by our sect's guest official Ye Yunqi. Why don't you take some with you this time?"

"Oh?" Wen Tingyu nodded, "Does the sect have any more? Send them here."

The elder in charge of managing the corresponding resources frowned and said, "The third-grade immortal water sent by the guest this month has been distributed to the disciples with excellent qualifications in the sect. This item can enhance the closeness to the Great Dao, help to comprehend the Dao, and cultivate the Dao to build the foundation."

"It will help cultivate the foundation of Daoyi?" Wen Tingyu's eyes lit up. "No wonder Ye Keqing can achieve the foundation of Daoyi. He probably drinks the immortal water at home! Now there are two people in my sect who have achieved the foundation of Daoyi. If the resources can keep up, let alone three ancestors on the same level, it will be a peak that has not been seen in a thousand years. I am afraid that it will not be long before there are five ancestors on the same level!"

"If the disciples in the sect work harder and build some Daoyi foundation, then Ningcheng will not be enough for us!"

As Wen Tingyu spoke, he seemed to be creating a wonderful future, which did not seem out of reach, but was just around the corner.

Five ancestors, listed side by side in the clan. What a wonderful future.

The elders were both yearning and regretful, as if they were regretting why they did not have such a wonderful thing as the magic water back then.

But more often than not, his eyes have begun to wander, as if he is thinking about exchanging some magic water in the future. It would be great whether for training younger generations or for using it on himself to see if he can make another breakthrough.

"Okay, let's all go. It seems that you don't have to worry too much. My Sanqing Sect has a bright future."

Suddenly, Chen Yao stood up and said in a loud voice: "The heavens are vigorous, and my Taoism is flourishing day by day."

The voice was sonorous and powerful. Elder Chen Yao, who had been in the army for a long time, had his own aura of war and iron cavalry.

The elders were deeply moved and stood up one after another. They bowed their hands and said in unison: "The heavens are vigorous, and our Dao is prosperous day by day."

This statement is not exclusive to the Sanqing Sect, but is a sentence from the "Duren Jing" that is often recited among the Taoist army and serves as the slogan of the Taoist army.

In the past, the Taoist army chanted this slogan to subdue demons and drive out ghosts to pacify the world.

All the elders left one after another. Wen Tingyu looked at the scene and seemed to be in a good mood. He slowly stood up and said, "Elder Duanmu, the guest official is familiar with you, so let's go together."

Duanmu Qingyuan just nodded, but Xu Donghua also stood up and said, "If I remember correctly, this person has some connection with me. He is my disciple's grandson. I will go and meet him."

"Disciple?" Wen Tingyu said with a smile, "Donghua, I forgot there was such a place."

The Blood Spirit Sect where Ye Yunqi was born in the past, its leader Zhao Jiutong, was originally from Yuqing Peak and was a disciple of Xu Donghua.

By this calculation, the term "disciple" is not an exaggeration.

Wen Tingyu looked at Duanmu Qingyuan again and said half-jokingly: "Qingyuan, look at Donghua. He knows that he has potential, so he starts to shamelessly build relationships with him. I think he wants to use this as an excuse to recruit him to Yuqing Peak."

"However, Ye Keqing is very close to your Duanmu Ya. Why don't you try to bring him to our Huaqing Peak?"

Duanmu Qingyuan's face darkened, and he said, "Yuqing and Huaqing are from the same sect, why should we distinguish between you and me. If Donghua likes her, just let him take her away! What does it have to do with Yaya?"

Xu Donghua smiled. Xu Donghua broke through to the Nascent Soul stage late, and as a man he did not pay much attention to maintaining his complexion, so he looked very old and frail, yet looked particularly kind and amiable.

"Qingyuan, since you said so, don't blame me for trying to win over Ye Keqing. Even if Ye Keqing's Daoyi foundation building is a bit tricky, it is still a Daoyi foundation building. It won't be a problem for him to achieve the late Jindan stage in the future. With his skills, if he joins the Sanqing Sect, he will definitely become a powerful elder. In addition, he has a close relationship with my Yuqing Peak before, so I will put down my shame and lure him over."

Duanmu Qingyuan had a stern face and looked disdainful: "If you like it, go ahead."

Wen Tingyu said cheerfully: "Donghua, don't underestimate Qingyuan. Even though he looks disgusted now, if Ya'er and Ye Keqing become Taoist couples, even if they are in Yuqing Peak, their hearts are in Huaqing Peak!"

As soon as these words came out, Duanmu Qingyuan couldn't hold back his anger and shouted, "That boy is so philandering! There are so many women around him, who knows where his heart is? He wants to harm my Yaya? You're dreaming!"

Wen Tingyu and Xu Donghua laughed together: "So you despise the fact that he has so many wives and concubines!"

Xu Donghua stopped laughing and said seriously, "Although Ye Keqing is a bit of a playboy, as far as I know, the women around him are all humble friends who have only known each other for a long time and have no great future. But Ye Keqing has never left her, which shows that he values ​​love and friendship. What does it matter if a man has more concubines? In the territory of Sanqing Sect, besides Yaya, there is only one Daoyi foundation-building person, which is a perfect match."

Duanmu Qingyuan knew that it was hard to find a foundation-building man. It was hard to find someone who could match Yaya. But he still said unconvincedly: "Donghua, let alone the fact that he is the only man in the Sanqing Sect who has built a foundation of Daoyi, even if he is the only man in the Sanqing Sect, what does it matter? Is there no genius out there? Don't mention this matter, don't mention it!"

"Okay, okay, let's not talk about it. But after Yaya gets married and moves away, I wonder if she will stay in Sanqing Sect for a long time?" Xu Donghua said he would not mention it, but he still said something in the end.

What made Duanmu Qingyuan's defense break the most was that after Xu Donghua finished speaking, he turned around and disappeared into the void, leaving behind a sentence: "Let's go, let's go visit this guest official Ye."

Duanmu Qingyuan was furious, snorted, and followed closely behind, disappearing into the void.

"Ah." Wen Tingyu sighed and muttered, "Although a sect is different from a family, Donghua is right. It's better to give benefits to our own people than to give benefits to outsiders!"

Then he disappeared.

The three ancestors were all Yuanying ancestors who were high and mighty outside, but when facing people at the same realm, they would not put on airs and would chat and laugh with them, just like ordinary people.

Xu Donghua knocked on Ye Yunqi's door.

Then Duanmu Qingyuan appeared beside him, and after a moment, Wen Tingyu appeared.

Ye Yunqi was at home and had just told Jiang Qingzi, Su Muyao and others about the nine grades of wives and concubines in his mind. Before he had time to work out the detailed names, status, treatment and standards, he learned that someone was visiting outside, so he hurriedly left the backyard and rushed over.

As soon as they opened the door, they saw these three people. Wen Tingyu and Duanmu Qingyuan already knew them.

Ye Yunqi bowed and saluted, "Greetings to Sect Master Wen, Elder Duanmu, who is this?"

Sect Leader Wen was about to introduce them, but he saw Xu Donghua had already spoken.

"Speaking of which, I am still your great-grandmaster. You can just call me great-grandmaster!" Xu Donghua looked at Ye Yunqi with a smile.

Xu Donghua has white hair and a youthful face, with an air of immortality, looking like a model immortal.

But Ye Yunqi began to have doubts in his heart.

Grandmaster? What grandmaster does he have? Is there some misunderstanding?

Duanmu Qingyuan's face was extremely sour. Seeing Ye Yunqi's puzzled expression, he snorted coldly: "What he said is not wrong, but it can't be said to be right. Let me introduce you. This person is called Xu Donghua. He is the master of Yuqing Peak of Sanqing Sect. The master of the peak is equivalent to an elder."

"Your former leader of the Blood Spirit Sect, Zhao Jiutong, was a disciple of this person. He retreated to achieve Nascent Soul breakthrough a few days ago, and now he has the audacity to try to establish a relationship with him."

Ye Yunqi was confused. Climbing up a family? Shameless?

Are you talking about the Yuanying Ancestor?
