Chapter 124: Position of Sect Master, Eight-Turn Golden Image Technique Complete

Ning'an Prefecture City, in a cave on the back mountain of the Longevity Sect.

A robust old man wearing a green robe opened his eyes, his turbid eyes looking toward the horizon.

"The Eight-Turn Golden Image Technique... has someone finally inherited this technique?"

Back then, he had simplified the Vajra Indestructible Body and combined it with the Qin family's bloodline to create this technique.

His original intention was to let the Qin family manage Ning'an County, using it as a front line to resist the Huai Kingdom.

But later, some accidents occurred, and the Qin family's bloodline was cursed by the Huai King Mansion, and no one had appeared who could inherit the Eight-Turn Golden Image Technique.

That curse was extremely obscure, and even he could not dispel it.

And now, what change had occurred? Someone was actually able to inherit this technique.

It is a pity that if it had been thirty years earlier—no, ten years would have been enough.

If only it could have been ten years earlier... *Sigh~* The sigh echoed in the cave, lingering for a long time.

Morning, Cloud Crane Courtyard.

Qin Jiang pushed open the door and looked at the various antiques and old objects being constantly moved into the courtyard.

"Brother Qin, you're awake!"

Xu Yanran, who was directing people to move the antiques, waved toward him. Beside her, Xiaobai was gnawing on a giant sugar figure a foot long.

"What is going on?" Qin Jiang asked.

Xu Yanran was taken aback. "Brother Qin, have you forgotten? You told me to help collect them, especially the bronze ware of the Ancient Yu Kingdom."

Qin Jiang suddenly realized upon hearing this and looked at the antiques and old objects that were almost piled full; nearly half of them were bronze ware.

He had been so busy lately that he had almost forgotten about this.

"So many?"

Xu Yanran put her hands on her hips slightly. "That is natural. These were collected by me from over a dozen cities, nearly two thousand pieces of Ancient Yu Kingdom bronze ware!"

Speaking of this, she was a bit puzzled again. "But Brother Qin, what do you want so many antiques for?"

"Oh, nothing, I just like them. After I finish looking at them, you can see if you can sell them," Qin Jiang laughed.

Xu Yanran's expression fell upon hearing this. "Alright, I understand. I estimate it will be very difficult to sell them all at once."

Qin Jiang smiled slightly and wrapped his arm around Xu Yanran's waist. "You've worked hard."

*Step, step, step. *

Qin Hong walked in, just in time to see the two hugging.

Xu Yanran's cheeks flushed, and she hurriedly let go of Qin Jiang. "Ah, Elder Sister, you are back so quickly."

Qin Hong laughed. "It was just Green Fire Body Refining; it is not a difficult matter for me. By the way, I just met Long Ye, and he said he has something to discuss with you."

Qin Jiang's brows lifted. It wasn't that he had any prejudice, but mainly because every time Long Ye looked for him, it was almost always to ask for money to go to the Fengyi Pavilion.

But every time he asked for money, he did it face-to-face. He estimated that this time it was because he was embarrassed to say it directly in front of Qin Hong.

After all, he was a centenarian, and Qin Hong was no different from a child in front of him.

"I understand. I will go over after I finish looking at these antiques."

Long Mansion, Council Hall.

Qin Jiang walked in with large strides, only to find that besides Long Ye, Long Daosheng and Long Wenliang were also there.

Long Daosheng looked at Qin Jiang, his eyes carrying a bit of emotion. "Junior Brother, I truly didn't expect that you were a descendant of the Qin family back then.

Back then, I drank and talked happily with your grandfather, but I didn't recognize you back then; I truly failed my old friend."

If he had known earlier that Qin Jiang was the grandson of an old friend, he would never have done that apprenticeship apprenticeship thing no matter what.

*Hiss~ I regret it so much! What a load of 'divine stroke' nonsense! *

"Indeed, if I had known earlier, perhaps I would have been the one to take you as a disciple."

Long Ye laughed loudly to the side, his mind starting to fantasize that if he had taken Qin Jiang as a disciple, he would have thrown his older brother aside and sat in the position of Family Head. Anyway, with Qin Jiang supporting him, no one would be able to do anything to him.

"Nonsense! Fourth Junior Brother, sit down quickly; there are important matters to discuss today."

Long Wenliang scolded Long Ye. He had always disliked Long Ye's style, especially his daily visits to the Fengyi Pavilion.

He didn't know how many times he had secretly beaten Long Ye because of this, but this guy just wouldn't remember.

Long Ye shrank his head in embarrassment. If there was anyone he feared, it was his Second Brother; after all, he had been beaten for decades, and it was only after Long Wenliang became a Commandant that he got better.

After Qin Jiang sat down, Long Daosheng looked at him. "Junior Brother, I have come to discuss a matter with you."

"Senior Brother, please speak. As long as it is something I can help with, I will certainly not refuse," Qin Jiang laughed.

Hearing Qin Jiang say this, Long Daosheng breathed a sigh of relief, and then realized when his attitude toward Qin Jiang had become so careful? Was it when he learned that the demon dragon that night was Qin Jiang, or even earlier?

"Senior Brother? Senior Brother?" Qin Jiang's hand waved gently in front of him, and Long Wenliang and Long Ye also cast worried glances.

Long Daosheng laughed suddenly. "Hehe, I am old; I have to admit it."

"Haha, Senior Brother is being modest. Now that you are about to condense Martial Fate, you have at least two hundred years to live, and in the future, when you ascend to Divine Martial Arts, you will enjoy a thousand years of life. How can you be considered old?" Qin Jiang laughed loudly.

Long Daosheng was taken aback upon hearing this, and then he also laughed. "Hahahaha, it was I who was being sentimental."

After the laughter, he looked at Qin Jiang. "Junior Brother, do you think I can do the job of Copper Bell Sect Master?"

Qin Jiang looked at him and laughed, pretending to be surprised. "Why not? Who else is more suitable than Senior Brother? If there is anyone unwilling, the demon dragon will naturally visit them."

Long Daosheng waved his hands repeatedly. "Junior Brother, don't be anxious, don't be anxious. Now, there shouldn't be any accidents regarding the position of Sect Master.

Actually, this position of Sect Master is not something that must be sat in.

It is just that the Sect Master Token of the Copper Bell Sect can control the Golden Light Subduing Demon Bell, and use it to connect with the city-protecting formation, controlling the Subduing Demon Array in the city, which is very important! It can even be said to be the lifeline of Ning'an.

I am not very at ease with the Wang family; the blood sword Wang Laoguai used that night seems to have some relationship with the Red Phoenix Division. If it is true, the consequences would be unimaginable."

This was absolutely a matter that could not be conceded. He could not entrust the safety of the Long family to whether the Wang family was rebellious or not.

And now, Wang Laoguai was in the midst of a serious injury. If they missed this time, I fear there would truly be no chance.

"Subduing Demon Array? Is it the same thing as the formation that blocked the weird mist during the Weird Siege?" Qin Jiang asked.

After the Vast Sea Mysterious Tripod Technique reached Great Completion, he felt a hidden power in Ning'an City, very tyrannical! Perhaps it could contend with him! Long Daosheng nodded slightly. "That is correct, but the city-protecting formation of Ning'an City is a hundred times stronger than that of Black Mountain City, enough to deal with some people who have just entered Divine Martial Arts."

Qin Jiang's brows lifted. *So powerful? I must have a chance to experience it. *

"Then when will you seize the position of Sect Master?"

Long Daosheng laughed helplessly. "Junior Brother, it is not seizing, it is re-electing the position of Sect Master. Three days from now, on the main peak of the Copper Bell Sect, all the Elders and Protectors, as well as the true disciples currently in the city, will be present.

At that time, I will legitimately take over the Sect Master Token."

Qin Jiang nodded. "Good, if it is needed by then, the demon dragon will naturally visit."

That night, Cloud Crane Courtyard, underground secret chamber.

Qin Jiang sat cross-legged on a cushion to adjust his breath, and a moment later opened his eyes to look at the potential panel.

He had harvested more than 1,200 potential points from that batch of antiques and old objects from Xu Yanran during the day. He was considering whether to push the Innate One Qi Formula to the True Martial level.

After thinking about it, he shook his head. If there were enough potential points left after adding points to the Eight-Turn Golden Image Technique, he would perform the deduction.

*'Potential, add points, Eight-Turn Golden Image Technique.'*
