Chapter 717 Past Events

After finishing the conversation with Xiong Shao, it was already very late.

Fu Qingzhou did not rest, but asked about the guest room where Master Jingming was staying and went there.

"Uncle Master, my nephew Fu Qingzhou is here to bother you."

He did not knock on the door, but stood a few steps outside the door and said softly, "I am sorry to bother you so late at night because I have something important to discuss with you. Please forgive me, uncle."

"Enter."

The calm voice of Master Jingming came slowly from behind the door.

Fu Qingzhou responded and pushed the door open.

An oil lamp flickered in the small guest room. Master Jingming, dressed in a patchwork Taoist robe, sat cross-legged on the bed. His expression was as calm and serious as ever, and his usual long sword was placed beside him.

"Master nephew Fu Qingzhou."

Fu Qingzhou smiled slightly, bowed and saluted: "Greetings, Uncle Master."

"I have long since left the True Immortal Palace. You don't have to be so polite." When Master Jingming saw him, his tone softened a little: "Come here."

Fu Qingzhou was slightly startled, but said nothing and stepped forward as instructed.

At the same time, Master Jingming also stood up from the edge of the bed.

"Stretch out your hand." She said to Fu Qingzhou.

Fu Qingzhou blinked and stretched out his left hand.

Master Jingming stretched out three fingers and took his pulse.

Fu Qingzhou was slightly startled, then chuckled silently.

Although he said he had left the True Immortal Palace, this uncle-master still cared about him.

Soon, a stream of clear water flowed from the meridians into his body and limbs, wandering around in his meridians.

And Master Jingming's expression gradually became strange, surprised, and confused.

After a while, she withdrew her hand and remained silent, unable to utter a word.

"Uncle Master..." Fu Qingzhou said with a wry smile, "My situation is rather complicated..."

"Qingsongzi, didn't I ask you to practice the Wuliang Zhenxian Gong?" Master Jingming suddenly asked.

Fu Qingzhou was stunned, then shook his head.

He almost asked, "What is that?"

Listen to the name... the Infinite True Immortal Art, is it the top-notch technique of the True Immortal Palace?
But I had searched through all the ancient books on Mount Langhuan, but I had never seen this thing.

"wrong."

Jing Ming Zhenren frowned slightly: "Fortunately, you didn't practice it... I found the Qi Ran Jue in your body. What is the other true essence? It is quite similar to the Wuliang Zhenxian Gong, but it seems different?"

"Yiran Jue." Fu Qingzhou understood: "This is something that Master Uncle has painstakingly researched for thirty years, and it is enough to counter Qiran Jue."

"I see."

Master Jingming showed a look of relief: "This old rascal has finally done something humane."

Then, she asked with a strange look on her face: "You, don't have a Dantian?"

"Yes."

Fu Qingzhou smiled bitterly again: "When I fought Huo Yaer, my Dantian was destroyed. It was Master Wu who saved me with the Jie Lei Dan, allowing me to replace my Dantian with my bones and muscles."

“And now that you have broken through the seventh realm, you don’t use your mind, but directly infuse your true essence into your heart.”

Master Jingming frowned slightly: "Why would you choose such a dangerous method? Do you know that if you want to break through the eighth realm, you will have to force your true essence into your internal organs? This is tantamount to self-destruction!"

"An act of desperation."

Fu Qingzhou scratched his head: "When I was fighting Huijue, I had no choice but to inject my true energy into the heart..."

"Alas." Master Jingming sighed slightly: "You are so young, but you have fought against Xuanxing-level strongmen many times, and were forced to fall into life-and-death dangers several times. As elders, we have done too little for you."

"Uncle Master, that's not the case."

Fu Qingzhou smiled indifferently: "You also said that you left the True Immortal Palace a long time ago and became a casual cultivator. Now that you are willing to stand up for Jiang Baichuan, it is a chivalrous act."

"No need to comfort me, if I was wrong, I was wrong." Master Jingming said seriously, "But this time, I will not let you face Jiang Baichuan alone again."

Fu Qingzhou smiled gratefully.

"Fortunately, I didn't teach him the Qingxuhua Sword Technique when he asked me for it." Master Jingming showed a lingering fear in his eyes: "Otherwise, if he had this sword technique, he would really be another Senior Brother Qinglongzi."

Fu Qingzhou blinked.

"Uncle Master..."

He asked, "Is the Qingxu Huajian Jue so powerful? How does it compare to Ning Baimei's sword shadow clone?"

"Sword Shadow Clone?" Master Jingming chuckled, "Do you know where Ning Baimei learned his skills?"

Fu Qingzhou was stunned.

Yes, where did Ning Baimei learn from?

Who taught him to be the best in the world?

It seemed like he had never heard of it... If he had to say, he knew that Li Jingzhe and Dong Qianran would call Ning Baimei senior brother, but they should all have graduated from the Palm Sword Academy, so it was normal for them to call each other senior brother, junior brother, and junior sister.

"It seems you don't know either."

Master Jingming smiled and said, "He is Master's student."

Fu Qingzhou's brain froze for a second.

He quickly realized that the "Master" she was talking about was the previous Palace Master of Zhenxian Palace, Qingsongzi's father, Long Dabei's master, and also the previous Sword Master!

"Ning Baimei, is he also a disciple of the True Immortal Palace?" he blurted out.

"No."

Master Jingming shook his head and said, "Although Master is the Palace Master of the True Immortal Palace, he is also a sword appraiser. As a sword appraiser, he occasionally selects students with both talent and virtue in the Sword Palm Academy and accepts them as his students."

Fu Qingzhou suddenly realized.

This kind of relationship between teacher and student is more like the relationship between Vice President Ling Haojie and Zhao Yuan.

They are not master and disciple, but they are actually master and disciple.

"Ning Baimei was originally a scholar."

Master Jingming said, "He entered the Sword Master Academy originally to become a civil servant."

"But the master found that his talent for cultivation was terrifyingly high, not inferior to his two senior brothers Qingsongzi and Qinglongzi, so he accepted him as a student. At that time, the master also said to others..."

With a look of reminiscence on her face, she said softly, "In the future, there will be three peaks in the world. Now all three peaks have entered my sect. How lucky I am."

Fu Qingzhou smiled and shook his head.

He could imagine how proud and happy his great master was back then.

His son Qingsongzi, his apprentice Qinglongzi, and his student Ning Baimei all have the potential to become the strongest people in the world. As their master, he will surely go down in history in the future.

But no one would have thought that in the end Qinglongzi became Long Dabei and killed his own master with his own hands. Qingsongzi also kept dissipating his power and even dismissed the entire Zhenxian Palace.

The high building reaches the sky and you can pick the stars, but in the blink of an eye, it turns into smoke.

"Stop talking about this."

Jing Ming Zhenren asked: "This time I was the only one who came first, it must not be a coincidence - the time you notified others to come was even later?"

"Master, you are indeed a man of great insight." Fu Qingzhou said with a smile, "I don't trust anyone else, but you, Master, whom I trust with all my heart."

"I asked Master Uncle to come here first because I want to ask him to do something for me."

Hearing that he had something to ask for, Master Jingming's eyes lit up slightly: "Just tell me."

"It's not difficult."

Fu Qingzhou lowered his voice and said slowly: "I suspect Jiang Baichuan has an accomplice. This time, I also tried my best to invite him here."

"Oh?" Master Jingming looked slightly surprised: "Are you hoping to lure this person out, and then use him to lure out Jiang Baichuan?"

"That's probably the plan."

Fu Qingzhou smiled and said, "Before they come, I hope you can help make some arrangements. In addition, if the traitor is really found, I hope you can take action..."
