If the sect doesn't accept geniuses, they will become giants once they leave?

Chapter 405 Are we witnesses or creators?
Zhuozhou.

Shen Ziqing put down the recent report on Yanzhou and Hanzhou in his hand, and raised his brows slightly. The other four were still discussing the invincible swordsman Cheng Yuejie at the Sword-Asking Ceremony.

"That Cheng Yuejie is truly amazing. Feng Ling is a complete swordsman. Even if she's beaten all over, she'll still draw her sword. To be able to make Feng Ling not even draw her sword, she must be an expert among experts."

"Indeed, I heard that Cheng Yuejie didn't even have sword intent ten years ago."

"In just ten years, he was able to sweep the entire Sword-asking Ceremony, frightening even those sword-wielding geniuses at the end of the Great Wilderness era who dared not to become his enemy."

The four of them were discussing intensely, but their eyes were always drifting in the direction of Shen Ziqing.

Everyone knows that Cheng Yuejie is a disciple of Qingshan Sect, and Qingshan Sect was Li Yanmo's original plan.

Cheng Yuejie's sudden counterattack is definitely related to Li Yanmo.

And Shen Ziqing is Li Yanmo's most trusted disciple, so Shen Ziqing must know something.

They were so curious that they hoped Shen Ziqing could reveal something, even just a little.

Shen Ziqing smiled helplessly, "Everyone, it's not that I don't want to reveal it, but this matter... I don't know either. I don't understand why Sister Cheng suddenly became invincible swordsmanship. Besides, as far as I know, she should be practicing..."

Shen Ziqing was suddenly startled, remembering Jian Xin's method of causing Cheng Yuejie's brain to short-circuit so that she could act freely.

"But I think I know why her sword intent is so strong."

Zhong Sanyuan hesitated for a moment and then asked tentatively, "Could it be that it's your master's... True Immortal disciple, your True Immortal Senior Sister?"

The four people present had all heard the sect leader say that Li Yanmo had a true immortal disciple. Based on the incident in Risheng City that night where a demon who was undergoing tribulation had his ghosts removed by a single sword strike, this person was most likely a true immortal of the sword art.

If there was a true sword master to guide her, it would be strange if Cheng Yuejie did not sweep the Sword-asking Ceremony.

But what’s important is why we do this.

Shen Ziqing scratched his face and smiled awkwardly. Although he didn't answer directly, his attitude had already given the four people the answer.

"If you four really want to know, I can go and ask. I'm actually quite curious too."

The four of them were still waving their hands. Cheng Yuejie had swept the Sword-Asking Ceremony and caused such a big disturbance. No matter how you look at it, this must be a big move by Tianxu Tower.

Their cultivation and experience were both shallow, and they were not qualified to know about such a big thing. But after hearing the second half of the sentence, the four of them nodded like chicks pecking at rice.

Shen Ziqing said, "I'll be back soon," and then got up and left.

Shen Ziqing hesitated for a moment as to who to ask about this matter. It would be fastest to ask Li Yanmo directly, but Shen Ziqing firmly believed that if Li Yanmo didn't tell him, he must have his reasons for not telling him.

It is never a good thing to ask rashly.

Take the matter of the mastermind behind the Immortal Palace for example. Even the eternal mastermind like the Immortal Palace is a prop used by it. How terrifying and difficult must this mastermind be?
Letting him know would only harm him, but his clever Fifth Junior Sister obviously had her own interpretation.

So Shen Ziqing decided to ask Dayu's military commander. Cheng Yuejie had made such a big splash at the Sword-asking Ceremony, and given his master Li Yanmo's cautious character, it was impossible for him not to discuss the matter with Dayu, so Dayu must know the whole story.

You don’t know until you ask. When Shen Ziqing asked, he was shocked.

Dayu was not clear about the specific plan of his master Li Yanmo, but a conservative and objective estimate was that it must have two aspects: using the reconstruction of Jianmen as bait to further tear apart the millions of Taoist sects, and to induce the Immortal Palace to continue to take action.

And Dayu did start to take action. For example, Emperor Yu had already told Yanxian, who was hiding in Xiao Yun's ring, that Tianxu Tower wanted to rebuild Jianmen.

Considering that all ten super sects suspected of having ties with the Immortal Palace had sent invitations to the Qingshan Sect, Shen Ziqing felt that he seemed to understand the purpose of this move.

But some elements are still missing.

Shen Ziqing returned to the four people who were anxiously waiting. "Gentlemen, I do know something, but this matter is much bigger than I expected. I'm sorry I can't tell you directly—"

The four of them were not disappointed, but nodded in understanding.

"But—it's not that I can't tell you all," Shen Ziqing leaned forward slightly, "The four of you should go ask your respective sect leaders if there are any arrangements regarding Tianxu Tower in the near future."

The four of them looked at each other, nodded, and stood up to contact their respective sect leaders.

It just so happened that the leaders of these four groups were together. Originally, the four of them were discussing separately, but they found out that their four leaders were playing mahjong, so they gathered together again.

When they heard that it was Shen Ziqing who asked the four of them to ask something, the four sect leaders said very straightforwardly and proudly that Li Yanmo had invited them to a gathering at Tianxu Tower, and they were in the process of selecting other members. As for Hong Menglian, they simply skipped her.

Zhong Sanyuan and the other three were horrified.

No wonder Shen Ziqing said this matter was much bigger than expected. It was more than just big, it was simply a huge matter! This gathering was going to stir up the entire world!

Are they qualified to know this?
But they know now.

Zhong Sanyuan and the other three returned to Shen Ziqing and frankly told him that Li Yanmo had invited the leaders of super sects that had no connection with the Immortal Palace to a gathering.

Shen Ziqing's pupils suddenly shrank. If he hadn't squinted his eyes the whole time, the four people in front of him would have probably seen through his flaws.

Dayu guessed correctly that his master Li Yanmo was planning to use the reconstruction of Jianmen as bait to tear apart the alliance of millions of Taoist sects and lead the Immortal Palace to further disaster!
Shen Ziqing crossed his fingers and said, "My master... is probably planning to discuss with your sect leaders... the matter of rebuilding Jianmen."

Zhong Sanyuan and the other three stopped breathing suddenly, and the pupils of the four people who were playing mahjong and listening at the same time also trembled wildly.

"Jianmen, it's actually... Jianmen! Is this Lord Li planning to put further pressure on Dayu and manipulate Dayu's next move? Or is he trying to set a trap for His Majesty the Immortal? Or... both?"

The four of them were all thinking wildly, but there was one thing they were very clear about, that is, this gathering would determine the future of the entire universe, and they were not only witnesses of history, but also the creators of history!
"Master Li actually thinks so highly of us," Kong Pu couldn't help but sigh. "Ever since I was little, I've always thought Xiao Zhong was the smartest of all the disciples, but I never expected he would be so much more than I imagined!"

Xia Tian sighed enviously, "My little Dai is not as smart as your little Zhong, but this is innate and has nothing to do with acquired education."

Dai Qianqiu, who could hear Xia Tian talking, sniffed and silently decided that she must pull out Xia Tian's life-extending sacred object if she had the chance in the future.
