Chapter 427: He actually called Senior Sword Ancestor "little friend"? !
The Righteous Alliance came here this time to sign an agreement.
Just like when the Righteous Alliance holds a martial arts performance, it will invite the Immortal Sect to watch the ceremony. Ever since Saint Emperor Yuan founded the Righteous Alliance, every time there is a Immortal Sect competition, the Immortal Sect will also invite the Righteous Alliance to watch the ceremony.
However, in the past, only three Return to Void and one Hedao would come to the Immortal Sect competition. It had never happened before that the current Speaker personally led the team and brought three Hedao to watch the ceremony as this time.
As for the reason...
This competition involves the Taixuan Immortal Network, and it is not convenient to disclose this matter to the outside world for the time being.
In fact, according to Ba Zun's suggestion, they would simply not invite the Righteous Alliance this year, and wait until all the functional tests of Taixuan Immortal Network were completed and it was completely stable before informing the Righteous Alliance.
But Xu Xing still wanted to take care of the power left by his fellow villagers, so he discussed it with them again.
Finally a plan was agreed upon.
You can come, but no more than five people, and you cannot reveal to the outside world what happened in this Immortal Sect Competition.
It sounds like a very 'overbearing' clause.
Therefore, a small number of unaware members of the Righteous Alliance and the Hedao were somewhat dissatisfied after receiving the news, and said that since the first chairman, Sheng Huangyuan, had returned, they might as well not go.
After Saint Huang Yuan ascends to the immortal throne and obtains enough qualifications for the major immortal sects to pay attention to him, it will not be too late to have an "equal" dialogue with the major immortal sects...
'Alas~'
As the [Xuanqiong Sky Boat] of the Righteous Alliance slowly descended, it stopped beside the flying boats of the major immortal sects.
The current Speaker of the Righteous Alliance standing on the deck couldn't help but sigh inwardly.
If it was really as they thought, Lord Sheng Huangyuan had really returned and was about to ascend to the immortal throne, that would be great.
But he knew in his heart that it was all fake!
Not only was the story of Lord Saint Emperor Yuan's return false, but even Senior Meng Xuan's attempt to attain immortality had already failed!
Previously, I had thought about cultivating my spirit and becoming a true immortal...
But it almost led to a huge disaster!
If Senior Gu Mo hadn't made a prompt decision, if Senior Jian Zu and Senior Yuan Jun hadn't discovered something was wrong and lent a hand...
He didn't even dare to think about the consequences!
Although Saint Emperor Yuan mentioned in his final statement that the reason why the seniors in the alliance were tempted and did not hesitate to conceal the Immortal Sect's execution of this matter was due to the influence of the Cang Clan...
"Sir Speaker."
Seeing that the flying boat had docked, a Hedao who followed behind him spoke up.
In the past, most high-level flying boat-type magical instruments were integrated with the method of 'Mustard Seed Containing Mount Sumeru', so although they did not look very big from the outside, there was a whole new world inside.
Therefore, at this moment, a not-so-large starship berth is more than enough to accommodate the flying boats of the major immortal sects and the righteous alliance.
"Let's go."
Whatever the reason, it is a fact that the previous Speaker, myself and some predecessors in the alliance almost made a big mistake.
That is to say, the alliance is now busy restoring some defense arrangements in the starry sky and reorganizing resources in the star field, so as not to experience too much turmoil.
Otherwise he would have resigned long ago.
Thinking of this, he took the three of them off the flying boat.
Upon seeing this, two guides from the Sword Sect who were at the Return to Void Realm came forward to greet them.
After the two sides met, one of them said solemnly: "Senior Chen Shang, the Grandmaster invites you."
Chen Shang is the name of the current Speaker of the Righteous Alliance.
Hearing this, Chen Shang and the three Hedao masters behind him looked serious.
The master wants to see me?
"Which senior is this?" Chen Shang asked.
In fact, he already had the answer in his heart, but he still wanted to confirm it.
"It's the Sword Ancestor."
really!
It must be Senior Sword Ancestor. Senior Sword Master is well-known for being indifferent to worldly affairs and living a reclusive life.
"Don't keep me waiting for too long, I'll trouble you to lead the way."
"Senior, you're welcome."
Before leaving, Chen Shang turned back and said, "You go with the other friend first. I'll come after I meet Senior Jianzu."
"Yes."
The three of them answered straightforwardly.
Senior Sword Ancestor is still a very good person, and the Speaker is not an unforgivable evil cultivator.
Seeing that Chen Shang had finished his instructions, he said, "Senior, please follow me."
After saying that, the man led the way and Chen Shang followed.
……
……
The starship parking area is not very close to the Sword Ancestor Hall, but for Fanxu, it is just that close.
Soon, Chen Shang was brought to the front of the Sword Ancestor Hall.
A section of the mountain top was cut off out of thin air, and a magnificent palace was located on it. When looking up, the shadow of the eaves just happened to cut through the sunlight, swallowing the main entrance of the palace into a black curtain.
Chen Shang felt a little uneasy.
It's not like he had never seen buildings that were more magnificent and more splendid than this one, but no building had ever given him such a strong sense of oppression as the palace before him.
By the way...is it really appropriate for us to fly up like this?
Wouldn't it be more respectful to walk up the stairs one step at a time?
"I will not go in, senior, please."
Chen Shang took a deep breath: "Thank you, my friend."
With some trepidation and excitement in his heart, he walked step by step into the Sword Ancestor Hall.
The figure was gradually swallowed up by the black curtain, and the light in front of him became much dimmer.
Although it was his first time to come to the Sword Ancestor Hall, he knew clearly where he should go.
Is this the guidance from Senior Sword Ancestor?
He understood clearly in his heart. Looking around, he found that the various displays in the hall were simpler than he had imagined, with almost no unnecessary decorations...
tread!tread!
The sound of footsteps echoed in the empty hall. Chen Shang's mind was filled with thoughts, and he couldn't help but recall his childhood.
At that time, he had not yet come into contact with spiritual practice, had not joined the Wanfa Dao Sect, and there was no Lord Saint Emperor Yuan leading the era, and the spiritual network spread across the central continent.
We can only get a glimpse of a corner of the vast world through the stories told by the storyteller at the village entrance... Among the legends of the ancestors of the immortal sects, the most legendary is that of the Sword Ancestor.
At that time, he thought that one day he would become a person like Senior Sword Ancestor!
Just like Lord Sheng Huangyuan said, who doesn't want to be the kind of person who can 'turn the tide and save the collapsing building'?
All kinds of thoughts flashed through my mind, but eventually I calmed down before reaching my destination.
Chen Shang took a deep breath and walked in.
Without even having the chance to see the appearance of the man sitting in the center of the dojo, he bowed down.
"Junior Chen Shang greets Senior Sword Ancestor."
"..."
After a moment of silence, a familiar voice sounded in my ears.
"No need to be polite."
"Thank you, Senior Sword Ancestor."
With an almost pilgrimage-like mood, he slowly stood up, but when he saw the face of the man in the center of the dojo, he was so shocked that he stood there in a daze.
The vague shadow in the memory became extremely clear at this moment.
this……!
Isn’t this the young man from the Sword Sect who separated his sword spirit and body to guide Yuan Lin at the martial arts performance?
wrong!
That was clearly the old Sword Ancestor!
My mind went blank.
It took him a while to come back to his senses.
What the hell!
I actually called Senior Sword Ancestor "little friend" that day?!
Chen Shang, who suddenly realized this, felt his legs go weak and he could hear a buzzing in his ears.
Perhaps in the entire Taixuan Realm, I am the only one who has ever addressed Senior Sword Ancestor in this way...
"Young friend?" Xu Xing looked at him with a smile.
Chen Shang shuddered and finally came to his senses.
Looking at Xu Xing, he couldn't help but smile bitterly: "I apologize for offending you before, Senior Sword Ancestor..."
"Alright, alright." Xu Xing interrupted him directly, "I was the one hiding my identity that day to watch the fun, it's not your fault."
"I……"
"And I think I'm still pretty young, right?"
Hearing Xu Xing joking, Chen Shang's tension finally eased a lot.
As the chairman of the Righteous Alliance, he certainly knew what Senior Sword Ancestor looked like.
The reason why he couldn't be recognized at the martial arts performance was naturally because Senior Sword Ancestor deliberately concealed his identity...
But it is clear.
He couldn't help but feel a little embarrassed.
He took another deep breath and said, "I wonder what Senior Sword Ancestor wants to tell me."
Xu Xing straightened his expression and said, "Yuan should have told you everything that happened before."
"Yes, the first speaker has explained everything to me." Chen Shang bowed again, "Thank you, Senior Sword Ancestor, for your help. It prevented us from making a big mistake."
"It's what should happen." Xu Xing looked at him. "This matter involves too much, and it's not your fault."
"After all, it was greed that gave me this opportunity..."
If you do something wrong, you do something wrong.
If he still made excuses for himself, he would have lived so many years in vain.
"Who can be free from greed in this world? Even I am no exception. There is no need to blame myself too much, lest it affect my practice."
Senior Sword Master also has greed?
Where are you?
Chen Shang was very curious, but he still resisted the urge to ask.
"Thank you, senior, for your teachings."
"Let's sit down and talk."
As soon as he finished speaking, a cushion appeared in front of Chen Shang.
After he sat down, Xu Xing asked, "The calamity of 'broken heart' has been resolved. Is there any unrest within the alliance now?"
"No, the first speaker arranged everything before he left. All affairs within the alliance are stable, and the rotation of star regions is also being gradually arranged."
There is nothing wrong with saying these things.
"In another two years, the star field defense should be complete."
"That's good."
Xu Xing waved his hand, and a stream of light fell into Chen Shang's hand, transforming into a pure white, crystal clear sword-shaped jade talisman.
Ancestral sword talisman!
"If you encounter something that you cannot solve, please inform me through this order."
Looking at the jade talisman in his hand, Chen Shang was a little dazed.
“It’s up to you to decide when to use it.”
"...Thank you, Senior Sword Ancestor."
I don't know how many times he has thanked me.
Chen Shang didn't think Xu Xing wanted to use this jade talisman to interfere with the Righteous Alliance...
After all, with Senior Sword Ancestor's level of cultivation, there is no need to go through so much trouble.
But he was still a little puzzled: "I dare to ask, why do you... do this?"
If it's just to help the Righteous Alliance, this is a bit too much.
"Although I have never met Yuan in person, I am also a good friend of his. Since he is not here right now, I have to help take care of him."
Never seen...
Considered friends?
How do these words form a sentence? (End of this chapter)
