Chapter 694

The last time Su Xuan came to Mount Taiyi was last time.

Okay, let's not talk nonsense.

Climbing Mount Taiyi twice, the Daoist School's attitude towards Su Xuan was completely different.

When he came last time, it happened to be the Heaven-Man Sword Discussion. The Daoist School strictly forbade outsiders from stepping in, so Su Xuan's process of climbing Mount Taiyi appeared quite tortuous. He only came to the front of Guanmiao Terrace after defeating all the mountain-guarding disciples of the entire Man sect.

Afterwards, after knowing he came from the Yin-Yang School.

The people of the Heaven and Man sects all glared at him, but he didn't care. Moreover, under the gaze of many disciples of the Heaven and Man sects, he defeated the masters of the two sects and took away the famous Daoist sword Xueji, which could be said to be sharp and showing off.

More importantly, no one in the Daoist School could compete with him. Even that legendary Beimingzi was defeated by Su Xuan.

Finally, it was Beimingzi who took the initiative to put down the grudge, turned enemies into friends, and invited Su Xuan to be a guest at the Heaven sect. Afterwards, he borrowed the two sects' library to Su Xuan for reading as the price, and only then successfully kept the famous Daoist sword Xueji in the Daoist School.

Of course, this process was not very smooth either.

Once, the incident of Qing Xuan of the Man sect wanting to assassinate Su Xuan happened. Finally, it caused a huge disturbance in the Man sect, and many people died before the curtain fell.

After that incident, the strength of the Man sect fell again and again. Sect Master Xiaoyaozi also seemed to have lost his heart. In the subsequent Heaven-Man Sword Discussion, he fought Chi Songzi again. This time, he did not show a trend of being evenly matched and was defeated by Chi Songzi.

Chi Songzi also successfully held Xueji for three consecutive times.

Of course, holding Xueji for three consecutive times is not something that creates history.

In the history of the Daoist School, let alone three consecutive times, things like holding Xueji for thirty consecutive years have appeared. But these were things from many years ago, things from the era of Yang Zhu and Zhuang Zhou.

Also because of losing this sword discussion, not long after Xiaoyaozi was defeated, he directly announced seclusion.

When Su Xuan came to the Man sect, it was Man sect Elder Mu Xuzi who came to receive Su Xuan.

"Greetings, State Preceptor!"

Mu Xuzi's attitude was respectful, and he bowed to Su Xuan.

"I thought you would call me Your Excellency Xuantian, or Mr. Su!" Hearing Mu Xuzi's address, Su Xuan looked at him with strange eyes.

Mu Xuzi hurriedly explained, "The State Preceptor is joking. Although the Daoist School has not entered the world for a long time, it also knows some things about the world's major events. Earlier, the Sect Master also said that since the Daoist School is in the territory of the Qin Guo, it should abide by the laws of the Qin Guo. The Emperor of Qin conferred the title of State Preceptor on Your Excellency Xuantian. A State Preceptor is the teacher of a country and is respected by the world. Since our Daoist School follows the laws of the Qin Guo, it naturally recognizes the identity of the State Preceptor!"

"Humph, you are quite eloquent." Su Xuan praised Mu Xuzi and said again, "You are a smart person, seeing the general trend more clearly than many people in the Daoist School. As far as I know, the Daoist Man sect has a saying of entering the world to practice. If you are willing, I can give the Man sect a chance. You can send some disciples to serve in the Qin Guo's army or other institutions, which can also be considered a kind of... internship!"

After Mu Xuzi understood the meaning of Su Xuan's words, his eyes suddenly lit up, "State Preceptor, rest assured, I will arrange this matter."

As for whether Mu Xuzi has the qualification to arrange this matter?

He has it.

It seems that because he handled many things well in that internal chaos in the Man sect that day, plus the strength shown by Su Xuan and the Qin Guo had forced the Man sect to show its attitude.

Since it had already been decided to lean towards the Qin Guo, Xiaoyaozi had no room for regret.

Before he went into seclusion, he handed over many things of the Man sect to Mu Xuzi. It was not because Mu Xuzi had outstanding ability, but because among the many elders of the Man sect, Mu Xuzi was the one who firmly leaned towards the Qin Guo camp. Xiaoyaozi was more at ease with him handling the affairs of the Man sect, not worrying that after he came out of seclusion, the Man sect would suddenly have an extra name of anti-Qin, and then be destroyed by the Qin Guo and Su Xuan.

It was precisely because of Xiaoyaozi's delegation of power that Mu Xuzi thought he had the right to make decisions on such matters. Even if Xiaoyaozi knew, he would definitely not say anything.

On the contrary, because of that internal chaos, the Man sect had weakened a lot. Nowadays, the Heaven sect is much stronger than the Man sect. The Man sect must seize the opportunity to hold onto the Qin Guo's thigh to get protection and not be suppressed by the Heaven sect.

If the Heaven sect knew that the Man sect had already hooked up with the Qin Guo, even if it consciously suppressed the Man sect, it would also take into account the relationship with the Qin Guo and dare not act rashly.

After chatting for a few sentences, Mu Xuzi asked Su Xuan again, "I don't know why the State Preceptor came to our Man sect today?"

Su Xuan said to Mu Xuzi, "I came to find something."

"Finding something?" Mu Xuzi raised his eyebrows, "I don't know what it is, can I help?"

If it was something within his power, Mu Xuzi didn't mind helping. After all, it was an opportunity to get close to Su Xuan and exchange for the Qin Guo's favor.

Su Xuan didn't say directly what it was, but asked Mu Xuzi a question, "Do you know the origin of Qing Xuan?"

"Qing Xuan, he seems to be from the Wei Guo, real name Wei Wushang. I need to check his origin..." Mu Xuzi said. He didn't know much about Qing Xuan's origin either.

But this doesn't matter. The origins of all disciples of the Man sect are recorded in the files of the Man sect disciples.

Although the Man sect's recruitment of disciples is not as particular about innate qualifications as the Heaven sect, and the threshold for recruiting disciples is not particularly high, not just anyone can worship into the Man sect. Before recruiting disciples, one still has to examine their family background to see if they are any big evil people.

With Mu Xuzi's help, Su Xuan quickly got the file about Qing Xuan.

"Qing Xuan, real name Wei Wushang, from Daliang, former disciple of the Wei Guo's Pijia sect, once a Wei Wuzu, later the Wei Wuzu was controlled by Lord Xinling Wei Wuji. After Lord Xinling passed away, Qing Xuan worshipped into the Daoist Man sect and officially entered the Dao."

After reading the origin of Qing Xuan in his hand, Su Xuan's gaze focused on a person's name.

"Sure enough, it's related to Lord Xinling!"

Su Xuan became more and more convinced that the last box was with Qing Xuan.

Wei Wuji had a premonition that he might die, so he gave the things related to the box to Qing Xuan in advance, and then gave the key to Jing Ni?

He guessed secretly in his heart and looked at Mu Xuzi again and asked, "Are Qing Xuan's personal belongings still in the Man sect?"

Mu Xuzi was stunned and then nodded.

Mu Xuzi also guessed that the things Su Xuan wanted to find were related to Qing Xuan.
