Chapter 217: Ten Years, Great Ying Immortal (Part )
Under the sky,

The world changes like floating clouds, with waves rising and falling.

Those storytellers love to mix up all the old stories of grudges and hatreds in the martial arts world.
No matter whether it is such a ridiculous tune, or in a teahouse or a tavern, it is only when the tune starts that one line can be shown off - All the affairs of the world can be turned into a joke.

It is said that ten years ago, there was a great battle between good and evil in Qingyun Mountain, and Taoist Daoxuan defeated the demons with the ancient sword Zhuxian.

However, Daoxuan was seriously injured in the battle and eventually passed away.

Soon after this incident,

The Fenxiang Valley in southern Xinjiang also suffered heavy losses. It was said that the valley master, Yun Yilan, went insane during his practice and died unexpectedly.

Therefore, two of the three righteous families suffered great losses in strength.

In fact, the truth is always in the hands of a few people.

There are other secret rumors in the world.

The deaths of the two great sect leaders... are all closely related to one sect, or one person.

--------

Empty mountain after rain.

"Father, can your shed give us two shelter from the rain?"

The old farmer under the thatched shed was making tea and turned around when he heard the words.

In the misty rain, two young men were seen shouting and shaking across the mountain stream.

How strange!

How can these old ears hear so clearly from a distance of at least forty or fifty feet?

"Father-in-law?" someone called out from the other end.

"Oh!" The old man seemed to have just woken up from his confusion and stood up and waved:

"Why not? Come over here and drink two bowls of tea to get rid of the cold."

"Thank you, husband."

As soon as the words fell, the two men bowed to him as if through the rain.
Then he suddenly rose up lightly, crossed the mountain stream which was forty to fifty feet wide, and when his feet touched the ground, he had already stepped into the thatched hut.

The old man was surprised and rubbed his eyes hard, thinking he was seeing things.

The wind blows the straw curtains, and the fog and rain are hazy.

The old man had a dry mouth:

"What are your names?"

The two young men were both eighteen or nineteen years old, well-dressed, dignified, and polite.

"I am Li Buchi."

"My name is Wang Beifeng. I am here to hide from the rain. I am sorry to bother you, old man."

The old man immediately prepared hot tea for them, and then sat down at the table to talk:
"I see that the two young masters have very good skills. They must be immortal children from some immortal sect, right?"

"You must be joking, old man. How can we be considered as fairy children?"

"Then what are we doing in this muddy mountain?"

"To be honest, we are here to visit a senior here on orders." Li Buchi said, pointing to the distance, "Oh, that is to go up to that peak."

The old man looked in the direction he was looking.

In the mist and rain, the towering peak that once pierced the sky is now only an outline.

The old man recognized the mountain:

"Wow, that place is amazing!"

"Oh, father-in-law also knows Kanglong Peak?"

"That's not the case!"

The old man recalled what he saw that year, his face full of excitement:
"About ten years ago, a big white fox came to the mountain and started causing trouble. It had nine tails and its Dharma form spread out, covering half of the sky."

"But later I heard that the fairy on the mountain subdued it and took it as a mount. It has been ten years since I saw that big fox causing trouble, so I guess the rumors are true."

Wang Beifeng and Li Buchi looked at each other with a little surprise.

The latter asked:
"May I ask, old man, are the immortal mountains getting along well with the local secular world?"

The old man danced:

"The gods on that mountain are all very righteous and easy to talk to. If we, the common people, ask for help in any difficult situation, they will basically get help. You two must have something to do when you go up the mountain, right? I'll help you, as long as you don't lose your manners."

Wang and Li smiled at each other and nodded:

"Thank you for your advice, old man."

At this time, the wind blew away the clouds and the rain outside the shed gradually stopped.

They finished their tea and stood up to say goodbye.

Stepping onto the mountain trail, the two men talked as they walked -

"After all, this is the first time we go out on a business trip together. I don't care how well it is done, I just hope we don't mess it up..."

Li Buchi said, patted Wang Beifeng's arm and said with a smile:
"But you come from Qingzhu Garden, and you have a close relationship with Trinity, so I'm sure you can have a say."

Hearing this, Wang Beifeng had a bit of pride on his face:

"That's right. Let's not talk about anything else, just talk about Guo Dazhuang... In terms of the martial arts world, I have to call him uncle, but in terms of the family, he is my cousin."

Then Li Buchi said:

"I don't know the rules of Trinity. Do you think it's possible for us to meet that person? If we really meet that person, I'm really afraid of being embarrassed and showing my weakness."

"What are you afraid of? We are sent by the Cultivation Alliance. As long as we don't overstep the boundaries, we can be neither humble nor overbearing. We don't have to be afraid even if the king of heaven is in front of us."

"Yeah, that's true."

--------

"Seeking to see the Great Ying Immortal? Oh, you mean the head of the sect?"

In the lower house of Sanyi Gate, the two of them met the head of the lower house after being notified.

"That's right. Dean, please show us a way up the mountain. We will go and pay our respects to the Immortal Daying."

Qu Niang, who is now the dean of the lower house, smiled when she heard this:

"Don't call him that to his face. He doesn't like to hear it."

This pointed out a waterway to the two of them:
"There is a ferry over there on the Niliu River. You two can take the boat up there. Of course, if you two can fly swords and it's too much trouble, you can just fly up there."

"No, no, when in Rome, do as the Romans do. Let's go by boat."

"Haha, you two don't have to be so reserved. This isn't the emperor's palace."

……

The purpose of the lower house nowadays is no longer just to select disciples for the upper house.

Instead, it became an important gateway for Trinity to deal with secular affairs.

It is a comprehensive affairs center whose business includes but is not limited to commercial operations, disaster relief, exorcism, healing, and underworld intelligence.

Unlike the deserted past, the current House of Commons has undergone several expansions, and its size and number of members have seen explosive growth.

Now, there are nearly three hundred people, including regular staff and external employees.

It can be called a behemoth to some extent.

……

Following Dean Qu's instructions, Wang Beifeng and his companion quickly arrived at the Niliu River.

Seeing the river flowing upstream and reaching the sky, I could not help but stare in amazement:

“This is the real supernatural power!”

Nowadays, there are people who ferry people across the river.

Once on the ferry, the two took the opportunity to put on their clothes, trying to dress appropriately and meticulously.

The two of them are actually stewards under the jurisdiction of the Cultivation Alliance.

Although the two came from different sects, they were under the dual jurisdiction of the Cultivation Alliance and their respective sects.

This time I came to Sanyi Gate as a young talent recommended by the Cultivation Alliance, and I came here specifically to deliver an invitation.

Since the establishment of the alliance, a conference has been held every three years, and three conferences have been held so far.

Of course, it is not a meaningless carnival like a company's annual meeting, but a practical discussion of major issues in the industry.

In the past few years, the Cultivation Alliance has developed rapidly, and the number of independent cultivators from different sects who have joined the alliance is simply too numerous to count.

Such a behemoth, in terms of size alone, is already a super organization that is almost on par with the three righteous families.

In this way, it is inevitable that the status of several thousand-year-old sects, including the Qingyun Sect, will be squeezed.

Especially at this critical moment, we need to maintain good relationships with all parties and pay more attention to human relationships and worldly wisdom.

For those thousand-year-old sects, the "voice share" in the world is as important as their life.

This conference is not only an internal meeting of the alliance, but also invites the three righteous families.

In order to prevent customers from causing trouble, they needed to ask the big boss from Sanyi Gate to help calm the situation.

This is also the real purpose of the alliance sending them to deliver the invitation.

…………

The two of them followed the waterway all the way up to the top of Kanglong Peak.

As soon as we got off the boat at the edge of the lake, our nerves immediately tensed up.

"A demonic spirit?"

There was a pavilion in the pond, with two women and a white fox in it.

The two women were extremely beautiful, and they were drinking tea and chatting, while the white fox was lying on the table taking a nap.

The lazy and harmonious atmosphere made them look like a family of three. Wang Beifeng and Li Buchi were both skilled in cultivation, and when they saw this, they were alert and cautious at first, and then became confused.

What is this place?
There is a monster, could it be...

The people in the pavilion obviously noticed their hostile looks, and one of the more mature women glanced at them indifferently.

Just one look made the two of them feel greatly shocked.

My brain became slow and my consciousness froze for a moment. I felt as if my bones and blood were being controlled and my mind was being taken away.

However, in just a short moment, the two of them woke up from their dream and broke out in cold sweat.

Li Buchi took a deep breath and said in a trembling voice:
"That woman, could it be the legendary... Trinity Sect's guardian beast - the Nine-tailed Sky Fox?"

Wang Beifeng lowered his head and pulled his sleeve to urge him:

"I'm afraid so. Don't look at it anymore. Let's go quickly..."

The two men lowered their heads and headed straight for the Trinity Mountain Gate.

They knocked on the door and someone soon opened it and welcomed them into the yard.

Stepping over the screen wall and the porch,
What comes into view is a martial arts training ground, more than twenty meters long and wide, very spacious.

There were forty or fifty people standing on the field, all dressed in white, wearing the standard uniform of the Trinity Sect.

Whether male or female, they were all in their prime, and when they saw the two people coming in, they ignored them.

These people were either standing still, or fighting each other, or discussing scriptures and martial arts.

The scene was very lively.

The scene of thriving vitality and flourishing things is right before our eyes.

At the main seat in the training ground, there was a burly disciple pacing back and forth, supervising everyone's homework.

Suddenly, Wang Beifeng showed joy on his face and shouted:
"Big and strong!"

The burly man was startled when he heard the voice, and looked over, his eyes suddenly widened:
"Brother Feng?"

He strode over and the two sides stared at each other for a long time.

suddenly,

“Ouch! Roar!”

Guo Dazhuang grabbed Wang Beifeng's shoulders and gave him a warm hug.

Guo laughed out loud:
"Cousin, why are you here? How is my uncle doing these days?"

This time, Wang Beifeng was almost strangled to death:
"Your uncle is three ounces short of 200 jin... He's fine, ahem..."

Wang had to push him away with great effort, and with a red face and thick neck, he introduced him:

"This is Brother Li. We have come here specially to deliver the invitation. Please take us to meet Master Xu."

"To see my master?"

Guo Dazhuang was startled and scratched his head:

"Unfortunately, my master went into seclusion three days ago, and this skill hasn't come out yet."

Wang and Li looked at each other and asked:
"When will the master come out of seclusion?"

Guo Dazhuang spread his hands: "Who can say for sure? It may take ten days or half a month, or even tomorrow..."

Wang Beifeng slapped his thigh, a little impatient:

"What should we do? The leader of the alliance is still waiting for us to return and report. If he finds out that we didn't meet with Sect Leader Xu, won't he blame us for being negligent?"

"That's it..."

Guo Dazhuang rolled his eyes and laughed:

"Cousin, you've finally come here, so don't leave in a hurry. You two can just walk around inside the door. When I finish helping my junior brothers with their homework, we can have a drink."

Originally, the two of them didn't have the time for this.

But this is the current situation, and we can only compromise.

I'm afraid this is the only way. It would be nice to visit the famous Trinity Gate first.

just,

"It's a very important place, so it's not appropriate for the two of us to walk around casually, right?" Li Buchi said.

"Hey, it's okay!"

Guo Dazhuang waved his hand and said cheerfully:
"Except for the Sanyi Treasury, which has restrictions, you can visit the rest of the place freely. Oh, there is one rule, don't break into a girl's bedroom. It would be a disaster if you saw one of my junior sisters bathing, hahaha!"

The three of them laughed.

……

These two are really rude.

After crossing the parade ground, you will enter the courtyard.

The Sanyi Gate covers a vast area and has many palaces and pavilions.

There were also all kinds of mountain and water scenery. The two of them walked, looked, and chatted as they looked.

From time to time, he would compare what he saw with that of his own sect.

Became a great critic.

After visiting the courtyard, we went to the back mountain.

When passing by a patio, I suddenly heard a faint sobbing sound coming from the well.

"what?"

Could someone have fallen into the well?

The two of them became suspicious and hurried to look for the well.

Looking down,

It's more like a cellar than a well.

In the dim light from the sky, one could only see a person with naked upper body.

The two of them focused their eyes and finally saw clearly.
It was a young boy, his eyes were covered by talismans to hide his senses.
His limbs were tied up with iron chains covered with talismans, and his whole body was hanging in the air.

As if sensing someone approaching, the man looked up and listened.

"Master! Master! Is that you? Is that you?"

Suddenly he shouted excitedly:
"Master, I don't accept it! I don't accept it!!"

The sound was shrill, and the roar made the edge of the well rumble.

The two of them both changed color on their faces and felt their blood boiling in their chests.

Wang Beifeng showed a look of horror:
"Amazing, who is this?"

Li Buchi said:

"He must be a disciple of Trinity, but he is tied up here. He must have made a mistake..."

His face suddenly froze, and he remembered a rumor:
"Could that person be him?"

"What?" Wang Beifeng was puzzled.

Li Sui slowly said:

According to legend,

Some time ago, an office of the Cultivation Alliance in Youzhou received a complaint.

A young man from a wealthy family was beaten to a cripple.

Originally, this kind of matter was under the jurisdiction of the government, but it was said that the person who took action was a monk.

The wealthy family also reported the identity information of the perpetrator to the Cultivation Alliance and requested that they take charge.

Over the years, the influence of the Cultivation Alliance in the secular world has become increasingly obvious, and it relies on redressing grievances for the people and enforcing the law impartially.

Since this matter involves monks, we naturally have to take care of it.

After investigation, it was found that the man was a disciple of Sanyi, named Fu Wujiu.

The reason was that Fu Wujiu had made great progress in his practice and asked for leave to return home to visit relatives.

But when he returned to his hometown, he found that his childhood sweetheart was engaged to the son of a wealthy family.

So in a rage, he went to the rich man's house and ordered him to cancel the engagement.

Later, for some unknown reason, Fu Wujiu beat up the young master of a wealthy family.

The beating was so severe that it left him disabled and paralyzed for life.

Later, the Cultivation Alliance found out the cause of the case and should have handled it accordingly, conducted diplomacy as needed, and notified the public as needed.

But what happens next is difficult.

Why?

Because it involves Trinity, it is extraordinary.

In order to control the impact, this matter was suppressed by the alliance's top management.

Of course, there is no wall that is impenetrable.

Some cultivators who learned about this could not help but secretly ridicule and mock.

First, it mocks the hypocrisy and inconsistency of the Cultivation Alliance.

Secondly, he mocked the Trinity Sect for not managing its subordinates strictly and bullying ordinary people.

This incident is one of the rare "gangster scandals" since the founding of the Sanyi Sect.

 There aren't many emotional ups and downs, so it's hard to divide into sections, so I combined the two chapters together.
