Lu Xuan silently looked at the old Celestial Master's sleeve. He could travel the world with his Yang spirit, unaffected by the Five Elements, and could easily perceive all things.
There seems to be something in the old master's sleeve...
The old master silently hid the newly prepared medicine in his sleeve even deeper, and then looked at Lu Xuan solemnly.
"Lu Xuan, I still want to thank you for coming to help this time. Please thank your master for me when you get back."
"This time, I'm even sending your Yang Spirit on a journey, so you can make a special trip."
"My master doesn't need to thank me..."
Lu Xuan's expression was somewhat strange. His master, Zhou Meng, had indeed asked him to help, but there was more to his good intentions than good ones...
Master is really something. He was only beaten by the Old Master once, and he only lost by one move, yet he insists on getting revenge.
Sigh! I'm really not that kind of person!
Just don't blame me for being too ruthless when the time comes, Celestial Master!
As for the old master's scheme, or Lu Jin and the company's plan.
Xu Si had already given me his plans when he heard I was going to participate in the Luo Tian Grand Ceremony. The main point was that I wanted to improve myself, no wonder he wanted to pursue Ren Fei...
Xu Si really refuses to take any detours!
"Master Lu, there are actually some things I haven't told you about the Luo Tian Grand Ceremony..."
Lu Jin hesitated for a moment, wanting to explain the cooperation between him and the company regarding the Luo Tian Grand Ceremony.
The Luo Tian Grand Ceremony is rife with undercurrents; everyone has their own agenda, and it's far more than just a few matches between young people on the surface...
The old Celestial Master wanted to use this opportunity to summon Zhang Chulan back to the Celestial Master's Mansion, both to protect Zhang Chulan and to get him to join Longhu Mountain.
He wanted to use this to suppress the turbulent world of supernatural beings and make the world forget the Eight Extraordinary Skills and the Jia Shen Rebellion.
The company is worried that the sudden resignation of the old master will cause turmoil. For so many years, the old master has been the leader of the righteous path and the ballast between the company and the Ten Elders. If the successor cannot win the support of the people, it will be another new wave of turmoil.
The Ten Elders wanted to take this opportunity to weaken the influence of the Old Celestial Master, since the Old Celestial Master's unparalleled reputation had suppressed the world of supernatural beings for too long.
After Lu Xuan appeared, the Ten Elders felt that the company wanted to promote Lu Xuan to a higher position, and today was supposed to be a day of intrigue and power struggles.
Lu Jin's temper hasn't changed in decades, and his thoughts are even more direct. He wants to take this opportunity to lure out all those shady characters and wipe them out in one fell swoop.
Although such a large plan should theoretically be kept secret, Lu Xuan's going to great lengths to help without giving Lu Jin a single honest word is definitely not Lu Jin's style.
Even if Lu Xuan regrets his decision and doesn't want to help after he tells her, Lu Jin will accept it.
“I know all of this…”
Before Lu Jin could speak, Lu Xuan nodded: "Some lowlifes, I suppose."
"What Senior Lu Jin should be worried about now is whether they dare not come."
"Hahaha! Okay! Okay! Okay!"
Lu Jin nodded in satisfaction. Lu Xuan's arrogant demeanor was almost even more haughty than that of the old Celestial Master Zhang Zhiwei back then.
No! The old Celestial Master, at Lu Xuan's age, doesn't yet possess Lu Xuan's level of cultivation.
Lu Xuan seemed to possess a kind of pride, a pride that wasn't about looking down on others, but rather a pride so great that he saw no one else but the principles he pursued.
As the group was chatting, Lu Xuan seemed to sense something and looked into the distance.
Is someone spying on my destiny?
After carefully sensing it, a look of helplessness appeared on Lu Xuan's face.
This guy is a born sorcerer; he wants to see everything. How can he have such a strong curiosity?
"Elder Celestial Master, Senior Lu, I have other matters to attend to and must take my leave first."
Lu Xuan stood up, his body transforming into pure energy and dissipating.
As if she hadn't noticed when Lu Xuan arrived, even as she watched him disappear, Lu Jin couldn't even sense how he left.
"Such cultivation level... is really not keeping up with the younger generation!"
Looking at Lu Xuan's free and unrestrained nature, Lu Jin sighed and looked at the old master, asking with some curiosity.
"Just how advanced is Master Lu's cultivation?"
"Could it be that I might actually see an immortal in my lifetime?"
Lu Jin's words were full of emotion. When he saw Lu Xuan's Yang God appear, his shock was no less than that of any of the Ten Elders present.
A true Yang God! Even in legends, how many years has it been since one has appeared?
The old master shook his head: "I can't believe it... my old bones are no match for these young people."
"No way?"
Lu Jin had just said it casually, and said it with a smile.
"Old Celestial Master, you are the supreme leader of the entire Zhengyi sect, you can't back down!"
"Are you going to give up before you've even tried? Liangliang, you haven't used lightning magic in years!"
Lu Jin didn't finish his sentence—"You're a Celestial Master now, use more thunder magic, don't just focus on elixirs all day."
"When one's cultivation of life reaches a certain level, even thunder magic is merely an external technique. Don't forget..."
The old Celestial Master shook his head, seemingly not even valuing the Celestial Master's Mansion's thunder magic.
"Lu Xuan is a descendant of Lu Zu, whose Taoist name is Chunyangzi. He is a sword immortal and the sword ancestor, and is revered as the ancestor of all sword cultivators in the world. But since Lu Xuan descended the mountain, has he ever drawn a sword?"

[I'm not really inspired today. I'd like to update a lot, but everyone says updating a lot during the verification period will affect my readership? Maybe I should save up some chapters and wait until next month!]
Chapter 50: As a qualified warlock, I've only survived this long because I'm incredibly lucky!
"It's so cool here!"
Wang Ye, who had been "on his way" for a long time, was currently lying in a small hotel in Jiangxi.
The ceiling was a patchwork of yellow and white, the walls were stained with unknown dirt, and the old, yellowed air conditioner was worn out.
Wang Ye estimated that the air conditioner's operating time was probably longer than his own.
Although Wang Ye had already set off from Wudang Mountain, as the young master of the richest family and the third son of Wang Weiguo of Zhonghai, he had no money on him...
Wang Ye: “…”
Why does it feel like being poor has become a fixed label? Is it just because the author himself is poor?
After a long train journey that nearly broke his back, Wang Ye finally arrived in Jiangxi and found a hotel to rest.
Lying in bed, the Grand Tutor's instructions before I left the mountain still echoed in my mind...
Inside a quiet room on Mount Wudang.
The room was quiet, with a faint fragrance wafting through the air.
Zhou Meng spoke with a serious expression and deep meaning.
"Little Ye, times change, circumstances are hard to alter, and it's difficult to remain unaffected. Have you really thought it through before entering the world?"
Wang Ye, who had just been punched on the head and had a big bump on his head, looked completely bewildered.
"Grand Tutor, are you confused? This word is wrong!"
"You were the one who said you'd kick me off the mountain if I didn't come down."
Zhou Meng coughed twice. "You little brat, why are you spouting such obvious truths?"
"Since you accepted this inheritance back then, it's equivalent to accepting this karma, so it's impossible for you to stay out of it..."
"Entering the world is both a form of spiritual practice and a way to cultivate one's mind. I'm not really going to send you down the mountain. Going down to experience things is also an opportunity."
Zhou Meng said earnestly, "If you encounter any difficulties down the mountain, come back. Wudang can protect you now..."
The previous Wudang was too weak; besides him, there was only Yunlong left. Zhou Meng was barely holding on and was exhausted.
But things are different now. With Lu Xuan's help, the three fellow disciples broke free from the shackles in their hearts and shattered their obsessions. They not only awoke from the void of inner vision, but also made further progress in their cultivation.
The current Wudang sect can protect Wang Ye and also suppress the influence of Feng Hou Qi Men.
Wang Ye has descended the mountain today. Anyone who dares to touch Wang Ye will be taught that my Zhenwu Sword is not without its advantages!
Zhou Meng's tone was full of elder's concern, and Wang couldn't help but put away his cynical smile and bowed respectfully.
"Thank you very much, Grand Tutor. I will remember this."
Listening to Zhou Meng's earnest teachings, Wang Ye's eyes revealed a complex mix of emotions and genuine feelings.
"I don't know how long I will travel down the mountain this time, and I will never be able to repay my master and grandmaster for their kindness in educating me."
"What are you talking about repaying a debt of gratitude?"
"The outside world is not like Wudang. If you encounter difficulties down the mountain, go back to Wudang. If you accidentally cause any trouble..."
After a moment's thought, Zhou Meng spoke earnestly.
"Go find your grandmaster!"
Wang Ye: “…”
The genuine emotion he was expressing froze for a moment.
Is there something wrong with the dialogue here?
"Grand Tutor, shouldn't you be saying at this point that if we get into trouble, we should hurry back to Wudang?"
“If you really get into trouble, it won’t be small. I doubt you’ll dare to go back to Wudang.”
Zhou Meng was very frank: "So you should go find your grandmaster! No matter how much trouble you've caused, it's just a minor setback for him."
“Lu Xuan, that wicked disciple, is more capable than me. He can handle whatever trouble you cause.”
Okay! Frank and genuine feelings are still genuine feelings.
Wang Ye carried his bag down the mountain that day. It was a bit strange, though, that there was a sign at the train station at the foot of the mountain that read "Taoist priests are prohibited from setting up stalls to tell fortunes."
A few days after they came down the mountain, news came one after another.
News about Lu Xuan flooded the forum, even overshadowing the Luo Tian Grand Ceremony and the Qi Body Source Flow. There were even dedicated fan groups that manipulated the rankings and controlled the comments.
