Mixed in the heavens, merits and virtues become immortals

Chapter 337 Wan Jianyi's Late Years Are Inauspicious
Twenty li outside Heyang City lies the mortuary.

When Zhou Yixian arrived at this place, he hesitated slightly, looking at the sign of the mortuary. Xiao Huan, who was standing next to him, sighed and said helplessly, "Were you so desperate that you didn't know where to go?"

"What do you mean by panicking and choosing the wrong path?"

Zhou Yixian said unhappily, "That girl's fate is just bad. I told you she was destined to die young and that her marriage would be difficult, and it wasn't a lie. She refused to pay money to defy fate and even came to cause me trouble..."

Zhou Yixian, cursing and swearing, led Xiao Huan away from the mortuary. It was getting dark, and the place was considered unlucky.

"They are spiritual practitioners, why should we believe them..."

Xiao Huan was speaking when she suddenly stopped and huddled together with Zhou Yixian. The two of them gazed at the sky, watching the lightning flash. Two figures landed on the ground one after the other. The one in front was a ghostly figure, with red light flashing in his hand from time to time. The one behind was dressed in white, holding a green sword, with a majestic air. Every move he made could summon pillars of light, slashing at the ghostly figure like an overwhelming wave.

"A Taoist priest from the Qingyun Sect is exorcising demons?"

Xiao Huan asked in surprise.

"That demon is no ordinary being."

Zhou Yixian gritted his teeth slightly and said, "This white-robed man's cultivation level is high enough to be the head of the Qingyun Sect."

Xiao Huan exclaimed in surprise as she watched the mountain-like pillar of light shimmer, while below, countless ghostly figures dodged left and right, managing to completely evade the mountain-like and sea-like sword energy.

Even Zhou Yixian was greatly surprised by such agility. Then, his eyes flickered slightly, as if he had thought of something unbelievable. He stared in astonishment at the person on the open ground, whose entire body was shrouded in black smoke.

"Gu Qing, you are truly my good disciple!"

Wan Jian held the Dragon-Slaying Sword, his teeth clenched in hatred.

Ever since Master Shuiyue confessed her feelings to him, Wan Jianyi had felt something was wrong. After that, he started to settle accounts with the various leaders of the Qingyun Sect, and in doing so, he discovered a scoundrel.

Originally, Wan Jianyi had endured humiliation for a hundred years, but Dao Xuan finally revealed it. In Wan Jianyi's mind, the script was "After I left for a hundred years, all my junior brothers regretted it."

However, due to Gu Qingyi's manipulation, Wan Jianyi's story became "Guarding the Ancestral Temple for a Hundred Years, I Was Despised by the Entire Sect."

Enraged, Wan Jianyi unleashed 100,000 sword energies at Gu Qing.

"Master."

Gu Qing said with a grin, "I'm just worried about your marriage."

"Worried about my marriage?"

Wan Jianyi said angrily, "You're worried about your marriage, aren't you!"

Wan Jianyi knew that Gu Qing brought this up so that Master Shuiyue wouldn't interfere when Gu Qing met Lu Xueqi.

Gu Qing was shameless in his pursuit of women.

After guarding the ancestral hall for a hundred years, Wan Jianyi's sharpness had dissipated. Suddenly, he was summoned by the chief disciples. In Wan Jianyi's eyes, this was a sign that his suffering was about to end. But he never expected that as long as he could endure hardship, he could endure it forever!

His reputation was ruined by Gu Qing!

what is this?
Wan Jianyi deserved his unfortunate old age.

"And your true identity, kid..."

Wan Jianyi stared intently at Gu Qing.

In Cangsong Daoren's eyes, Gu Qing was Wan Jianyi's disciple. Through Wan Jianyi, Gu Qing discovered Cangsong Daoren's secrets and then stopped him, thus allowing Gu Qing to enter the Qingyun Sect.

However, in Wan Jianyi's eyes, Gu Qing was a disciple of Cangsong Daoren, wielding the Dragon-Slaying Sword, which suited his taste. By fate, Wan Jianyi took Gu Qing as his disciple.

When the two people checked their accounts, Gu Qing's identity became a mystery.

"Act without acting, do without doing, taste without tasting. Whether big or small, many or few, repay grievances with virtue."

Gu Qing said helplessly, "To give birth without possessing, to act without relying on one's own power, to nurture without dominating—this is the profound virtue."

Gu Qingpan pulled at the Taoist scriptures, trying to tell Wan Jianyi what virtue was.

"Are you sure you want to lecture me, someone as immoral as you?"

Wan Jianyi raised an eyebrow and said coldly.

What words! What words is this!

“Taiji Xuanqing Dao is a secret manual passed down through generations of my Qingyun Sect. Since you have become my disciple and are a member of the Qingyun Sect, I naturally need to find out your background.” Wan Jianyi asked calmly.

Gu Qing has indeed made contributions. Whether it was killing the Poison God, seizing the Dragon-Subduing Cauldron from the Ghost King Sect, or sowing discord between the Ghost King Sect and the Joyful Union Sect, he has done a great deal for the Qingyun Sect. If it weren't for Gu Qing, Wan Jianyi would still be in the Ancestral Hall.

"Speaking of the matter of taking on a master..."

Gu Qing smiled and said, "I have already brought my talent to Dao Xuan Zhenren's school and can't wait to learn the Seven Star Sword Style."

As for Cangsong and Wan Jianyi, Gu Qing wished them good luck.

Wan Jianyi, provoked by Gu Qing's repeated teasing, couldn't help but laugh in anger again. He held the Dragon Slayer Sword in his hand, its sword energy surging and its power astonishing.

Zhou Yixian and Xiao Huan exchanged a quick glance, feeling as if they had overheard a tremendous secret.

"Ugh……"

Looking at Wan Jianyi's posture, Gu Qing sighed, looked up at the sky silently, and said, "Alright, actually I am a descendant of Qingyunzi. I am the thirteenth generation. If we talk about seniority, you eighteenth generation people should call me ancestor."

Wan Jian stared at Gu Qing with wide eyes.

Zhou Yixian and Xiao Huan looked at each other in bewilderment. "You are the thirteenth generation, then what am I?"
"Our lineage learned Qingyunzi's physiognomy skills and some rudimentary martial arts techniques."

Gu Qing opened his mouth and lied, saying, "We usually lie in hiding in the human world. It is because a great calamity is about to come and the people of Qingyun Sect are not united that I risked everything to stop it in order to save the common people."

Upon hearing this, Wan Jian couldn't help but burst out laughing.

"You took the Mysterious Fire Mirror from Burning Incense Valley, does that count as saving the world?"

Wan Jianyi countered with a question.

Wan Jianyi was unaware that Gu Qing possessed the Great Brahma Prajna, but the Xuanhuo Mirror was the best proof of Gu Qing's selfish motives.

"Ah……"

Gu Qing sneered and said, "Before Qingyunzi died, he told Qingyun Sect to guard Qingyun Mountain to the death, saying that it would surely prosper in the future. In your opinion, it is because Qingyun Sect has good feng shui and outstanding people that Qingye appeared, which is why it prospered?"

Wan Jianyi's eyes were full of doubt.

No?
"of course not!"

Gu Qing spoke off the cuff, saying, "Everything in the Qingyun Sect was built along the water veins, and there are even divine beasts like the Water Qilin. All of this is to fight against fire."

Fighting fire?
Mysterious Fire Mirror?
Wan Jianyi stared at Gu Qing for a long while before speaking, saying, "You're a liar, I don't know which of your words are true..."

It's all fake!
Gu Qing simply nodded mysteriously, concealing everything, and said, "Actually, my surname isn't Gu, it's Zhou. My real name is Zhou Qing."

Because of this name, it is only natural for me to cultivate the Great Brahma Prajna, after all, Buddha is the Tao.

In the future, I will transcend the great calamity and become one of the Four Pure Ones of Pangu.

Looking at Gu Qing's heavy burden, Wan Jianyi tried to strike with the Dragon Slayer Sword a few times but didn't. He sighed silently and said, "Take care of the Incense Valley matter first!"

Incense Valley heard about the Ten Thousand Poisons Sect and has come knocking on their door.

Gu Qing smiled at this.

Zhou Yixian and Xiao Huan, who were hiding in the shadows, seemed to make eye contact with Gu Qing. Both of them turned pale and dared not say a word.

"Master, have you forgiven me?"

Gu Qing's voice was faint as she called Wan Jianyi "Master" again, since the Demon Slayer was still in Wan Jianyi's hands.

"Ugh……"

Wan Jianyi sighed silently.

Was he born to be a scapegoat?

One pot has been carried for a hundred years, and now another pot has come.

Wan Jianyi felt that his later years were not peaceful.
