At the foot of Black Wood Cliff Mountain in Hebei Province, Qu Yang, who was dressed in a plain robe, passed through the mountains one after another. After showing his identity token as the Right Emissary of Light, he came all the way to the Black Wood Cliff Hall to meet the Dongfang Cult Master.
Dongfang Cult Master was resting in her bedroom when she heard her subordinate report that Qu Yang, who had been absent from the cult for many years, had returned to Black Wood Cliff and requested to meet her. She frowned.
Qu Yang was an extremely special existence in the Sun Moon Sect. His loyalty to the sect was clear, but he had never been involved in any power struggles within the sect. Therefore, he was also the target of some people in the sect.
However, after so many years, Qu Yang had never expressed his opinion.
Now that the Right Emissary of Light had requested to meet her, he must have something important to report.
He quickly arrived at the main hall and saw the calm and composed Qu Yang at a glance. He was even more puzzled.
"Why is Right Emissary Qu looking for me?”
"Cult Master, Honored Guest Huangfu asked me to give this letter to you.”
As he spoke, he took out a sealed letter from his sleeve and handed it over. Then, he turned around and continued standing below.
The Dongfang Sect Master immediately thought of Ling Yun, whom he had met some time ago, when he heard the words 'Huangfu Honored Guest.' He opened the envelope and read it carefully.
The letter was a thousand words long. After Patriarch Dongfang finished reading it word by word, the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and a smile appeared in his eyes.
Carefully keeping the letter, the Dongfang Sect Master raised his chin and said,""It's rare for Right Emissary Qu to make such a choice. Since Honored Guest Huangfu has written a letter to introduce you, I will naturally treat you with the courtesy of a distinguished guest.”
"I'm loyal to the Sun Moon Sect." Qu Yang nodded. The Cult Master was a man of great talent and great vision. If there was any need in the future, he could order his subordinates to do their best.”
There was a hidden meaning in the Dongfang Sect Master's words, but Qu Yang didn't mind. There was a hidden meaning behind the words 'treat him as a distinguished guest.' In the past, he had always been an ordinary person. Although there were people in the sect who wanted to rope him in, they did not treat him as a distinguished guest. Instead, they used all sorts of high-sounding reasons to ask him to join the camp. Now that Master Dongfang was willing to treat him as a distinguished guest, his status in the Sun Moon Sect had risen significantly.
"You're too polite, Emissary Qu. I'm only doing this for the Sun Moon Sect. If I can make the Sun Moon Sect the number one sect in the pugilistic world, then I'll be worthy of the previous Sect Leaders.”
"Cult Master is too modest. It's rare to see someone as talented as Cult Master in the pugilistic world. By the way, Honored Guest Huangfu has a message for Cult Master. Don't be arrogant and impatient. Don't be eager for quick success and instant benefits. The way of the emperor lies in checks and balance, and both kindness and power are applied.”
Qu Yang recalled what Ling Yun had said the other day. Even though Ling Yun had suddenly revealed his identity as a Nine Heavens Supreme Lord and made him an honorary elder, thinking about it now, it was possible that he had already planned to do so when they met. He was just setting up a trap for him.
In this way, Xue Junzi's shrewdness and strategy were indeed much better than his peers. He could even be compared to those old Jianghu people.
Although it was a trap, he had no choice but to admire and acknowledge the other party. Just by the other party saying that he would abandon the prejudice of the world, he already approved of it very much in his heart.
He was free and easy, this
Hearing Qu Yang's words, the Dongfang Sect Master said calmly,""I know, I don't need him to teach me this. Hmph, the guest elder still wants to lecture me? He would talk about it when he became the sect master.”
At this point, he couldn't help but think of what the other party had said when they met again. The smile in his eyes was hard to hide.
Although the time they met again after six years was short, it had a different flavor. Xue Junzi, the Nine Heavens, and her future husband had all given her a strong impact.
However, when she thought of the other party's teasing of her in the alley, she gritted her teeth and clenched her fists.
What a detestable man!
"Eh?"
Qu Yang had a different thought. The words of the Dongfang Sect Master made him vaguely sense something, but he did not say it out loud. Seeing that Patriarch Dongfang seemed to be lost in thought, he didn't stay any longer and carefully left the hall.
By the time Master Dongfang regained his senses, he had already disappeared. Master Dongfang didn't care about it, but picked up the letter and read it again. In the end, he muttered in a low voice," You actually said that I have so many shortcomings. Hmph, seeing that you've helped me find a powerful helper, I won't argue with you."”
After muttering, he left the hall with a smile. Fortunately, no one saw him, or else his eyes would definitely fall out of their sockets.
……
Ling Yun was still in Fuzhou.
Qu Yang's submission was something that made him happy. It was already a perfect thing for him to pull such a high-level Hou Tian expert into his camp.
Moreover, there was no restriction on cultivation level to become an honorary elder. As long as it was someone he thought was capable, they could become an honorary elder.
However, the rarer something was, the more valuable it was. Not just anyone could obtain the honorary elder title.
The incident at the Lin family's old residence had already subsided, and the number of people from the righteous and evil paths surrounding them in the dark had already decreased by a lot.
He had killed the Qingcheng Monastery and the Jindao School by himself, and he had killed many Jianghu experts in an instant. This had made him an advanced cultivator. Very few people were willing to continue attacking the sword manual.
In the inn's private room, Ling Yun was enjoying his wine as he looked out the window at all sorts of people.
Not long after, two figures on the street downstairs entered his line of sight.
"What a beautiful nun…"
