Chapter 465

"Master."

The old Daoist Daoist Zi Yang looked at the Great True Person Daoist Qing Ding, who had returned from the South Sea, with shame.

Behind the Great True Person Daoist Qing Ding stood his eldest disciple, Master Xuanwei.

Since that night.

Three days had passed.

The old Daoist Daoist Zi Yang: "Senior Brother Daoist Su Xuan Yu said... he said Master's Dao is ultimately different from his, and asked Master to pretend he never took him in as a disciple."

Hearing this.

The Daoist Master Xuanwei sighed softly.

He had spent a hundred years with Daoist Su Xuan Yu and had long known his disposition; Daoist Su Xuan Yu had ultimately taken that step.

The Great True Person Daoist Qing Ding's expression didn't change much.

He said faintly: "Truly a foolish child; since he has already made his choice, let him go."

The old Daoist Daoist Zi Yang lowered his head.

It's not for nothing that Master could become a Great True Person; there was truly nothing in the world that could surprise or anger him.

The Great True Person Daoist Qing Ding cultivated the Dao of Non-Action, and his reaction now was in line with the Dao.

Taking an apprentice was following one's heart, and Daoist Su Xuan Yu's departure now was also fate.

He naturally wouldn't stop him.

Everything was determined by heaven.

Moreover, the old Daoist Daoist Zi Yang always felt that Master had already anticipated the scene today.

His heart was filled with mixed feelings for a time.

The upper sect cultivated the Dao of Purity and Ruthlessness; Daoist Su Xuan Yu's departure might not really be a bad thing for himself.

It's just a pity...

The bond between fellow apprentices was completely broken.

Actually, his relationship with Second Senior Brother Daoist Su Xuan Yu was not bad, but the next time they met, they would likely be enemies.

Suddenly.

The Great True Person Daoist Qing Ding spoke: "By the way, the person who blocked Daoist Su Xuan Yu is called... Li Rui?"

The old Daoist Daoist Zi Yang nodded: "Yes, he is an official garrisoned by the Yu Kingdom."

Speaking of Li Rui.

His expression was invigorated.

Of the entire Profound Micro Sect, he was the most familiar with Li Rui.

That night.

Li Rui used his talisman array skills to block his senior brother Daoist Su Xuan Yu and ten Below Tongxuan experts for a full ten breaths.

Even he was greatly shocked.

Now, Li Rui was truly shaking the world.

"If it weren't for Master Li's extraordinary skills, Mount Changqing Peak would probably have been slaughtered, and it would have been difficult for the Yu Kingdom imperial court, especially Yuan Yuan Dingting, to account for it."

The old Daoist Daoist Zi Yang had already guessed.

The Daoist Daoist Su Xuan Yu betrayed the Profound Micro Sect and joined the Northern Pole Demon Sect.

As long as Li Rui and Yuan An were killed.

With the influence of Gu Gu Changsheng and Yuan Yuan Dingting, although the Yu Kingdom imperial court would definitely hold the grudge against the Northern Pole Immortal Sect, the relationship with the Profound Micro Sect would also become more tense.

He knew a lot about the secular world.

So he understood a truth: the imperial court was very large, so large that even the Emperor could not represent the entire will of the imperial court.

Gu Gu Changsheng and Yuan Yuan Dingting were those who could influence the will.

The Daoist Daoist Qing Ding remained expressionless, and he just said faintly:

"I once had an agreement with Gu Gu Changsheng that the garrison must be below the upper three ranks; Daoist Zi Yang, you go and negotiate this matter with the Yu Kingdom."

The old Daoist Daoist Zi Yang blinked and bowed:

"Yes, Master."

Mount Changqing Peak.

"Brother Li, Master once had an agreement with Master Gu that the garrison must be below the Third-Rank; this matter is a rule, and I have no way."

The old Daoist Daoist Zi Yang smiled awkwardly.

Li Rui: "I will send the True Person's words to the capital."

He didn't say he agreed, nor did he say he disagreed.

Because this matter was not up to him to decide at all.

But the old Daoist Daoist Zi Yang's eyes lit up.

He knew Li Rui too well; if Li Rui had made up his mind not to leave, he wouldn't be as easy to talk to as he was now, and he would definitely be met with soft nails.

The old Daoist Daoist Zi Yang couldn't help but be curious: "Master Li, have you already found a way out like Master Sang?"

Only in this way could it explain why Li Rui was so indifferent.

Li Rui smiled slightly: "This Profound Micro Sect, sure enough, only Brother Daoist Zi Yang understands me best."

Hearing this, the old Daoist Daoist Zi Yang secretly breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

Since Li Rui intended to leave, he could also report back to the Great True Person Daoist Qing Ding.

The best of both worlds.

Otherwise, with Li Rui's skills, he really had no confidence.

The old Daoist Daoist Zi Yang's smile became natural, and he had the leisure to size up Li Rui.

That night was truly a case of amazing the world with a single brilliant feat.

Who could have thought that Li Rui, this harmless little old man who basically stayed on Mount Changqing Peak, had such great ability.

Regarding the skills of his Second Senior Brother Daoist Su Xuan Yu, the old Daoist Daoist Zi Yang knew them too well.

He estimated that the Yu Kingdom imperial court was already reluctant to keep such a treasure in the Profound Micro Sect.

Master of both talismans and arrays.

This was a strategic resource-level existence!

"Brother Li, tell your brother the truth, how many years have you practiced?"

The old Daoist Daoist Zi Yang himself practiced the talisman technique.

He had practiced for two sixty-year cycles before barely reaching the Third-Rank.

If Li Rui had reached the same level as him in just ten years, he would definitely be depressed for a long time.

Li Rui: "I did indeed practice talismans and arrays before."

Daoist Zi Yang narrowed his eyes, instantly relieved.

He didn't have much doubt.

A Third-Rank Talisman Master in ten years, plus a Third-Rank Array Master; are you kidding, how could there be such a genius in the world?

He had long heard rumors from the Annan Town that Li Rui was a dark piece placed in Qinghe by the Yu Kingdom Emperor, so he should have already practiced talisman and array techniques at that time.

Although the talisman array technique driven by true qi was not as good as immortal arts, there were commonalities.

If there was a foundation, it was still considered reasonable.

The old Daoist Daoist Zi Yang couldn't help but secretly admire.

It was not just Li Rui's skills in talismans and arrays, but also Li Rui's cautious temperament.

He roughly guessed.

The reason Li Rui could set up so many arrays under the noses of many experts in the Profound Micro Sect was due to day-by-day accumulation and extreme caution.

Mount Changqing Peak's array was not set up in a day.

Rather, Li Rui scattered some idle hands every day, and after accumulation, he had countless arrays, and as long as they weren't activated, no one would come to Mount Changqing Peak except him, so it was naturally extremely difficult to discover.

The key lay in the two words "habit."

It sounded light, but it was extremely difficult to do.

"Brother Li is no ordinary person; he will have great ability in the future."

The old Daoist Daoist Zi Yang praised sincerely.

Regardless of the relationship between the Profound Micro Sect and the Yu Kingdom, he wanted to maintain a good relationship with Li Rui.

After all, such a person was too terrifying as an opponent.

Li Rui: "Brother Daoist Zi Yang, please don't flatter me anymore, I'm about to float away."

Correct.

Yesterday, he had just received news from Gu Gu Changsheng.

The Emperor heard about the Profound Micro Sect matter and was overjoyed, immediately letting Li Rui go to the capital to receive a reward.

It was called receiving a reward.

Actually, once Li Rui went, the possibility of returning was not high.

Regarding this.

Li Rui knew it well.

Before, although he also showed extraordinary talent, the Emperor valued his potential, not his strength, which was why he let him continue to stay in Qinghe.

But now the situation was different.

The ability he showed was enough to block Heavenly Phenomenon, so even the Emperor had to attach importance to it.

Plus his status as an array master and talisman master.

Going to the capital was inevitable.

As for what the future would be like, it still needed to be decided by the Emperor and those few big figures, but at least one point was certain: he definitely couldn't stay in the Profound Micro Sect.

He showed his strength; the Profound Micro Sect allowed a Below Tongxuan beginner to stay in the sect, but not a Below Tongxuan who could block Heavenly Phenomenon attacks.

The Profound Micro Sect couldn't let such a figure continue to stay in the sect to spy on secrets.

Moreover, the Yu Kingdom imperial court wouldn't let such a talent continue to stay idle outside the capital.

The matter happened suddenly.

Li Rui himself also knew he couldn't continue to stay in the Profound Micro Sect, otherwise his situation would be extremely awkward.

He liked to borrow power.

Now the Profound Micro Sect's power had become a counter-effect, so it was time to move.

Sailing against the current is respectable, but it is also inevitably laborious, right?

Li Rui: "Brother Daoist Zi Yang, so why did the Daoist Daoist Su Xuan Yu commit this betrayal of his master and ancestors?"

Hearing this, the old Daoist Daoist Zi Yang sighed:

"Family ugliness should not be publicized, but since Brother Li asks, it's fine to say; Second... Daoist Su Xuan Yu is a half-demon."

The words "Second Senior Brother" almost slipped out.

And was swallowed back by the old Daoist Daoist Zi Yang.

Li Rui was shocked in his heart.

He didn't expect the Daoist Daoist Su Xuan Yu to be a half-demon, rare in a thousand years.

He also instantly understood why the Daoist Daoist Su Xuan Yu would do this.

He secretly sighed in his heart.

That night he exposed his strength; originally he thought about doing it once and for all, directly keeping Daoist Su Xuan Yu in the Profound Micro Sect, but unfortunately, Ji Lei used the Great Teleportation Talisman again, letting Daoist Su Xuan Yu escape.

The Profound Micro Sect matter was over.

Li Rui stayed on Mount Changqing Peak for three days.

And then set off for the capital.

In just one day, he crossed tens of thousands of miles with a magic treasure and arrived before the city gate, over a hundred zhang high, in this capital of the Yu Kingdom.

Liu Liu Tiezhu and Yuan An followed behind him.

Revisiting an old place.

Li Rui had many feelings.

Before, it took more than ten days by water to get to Jishuitan in the capital, but now, it took only one day.

Liu Liu Tiezhu looked at the capital with curiosity.

It was his first time here.

By comparison, Yuan An was much calmer.

Although Yuan Yuan Dingting was fighting outside all year round, he and his mother Cui Cui Chuxue had always lived in the capital until Yuan Yuan Dingting went to Yunzhou, and they followed him to the south.

Li Rui laughed:

"Let's go."

But just as he took a step—
