Chapter 317

Wan Jianyi raised his head, examined Gu Qing's face, and then looked at the Dragon-Slaying Sword hanging at Gu Qing's waist. Suddenly, his heart was full of vicissitudes. He looked at Gu Qing, his eyes full of what he looked like when he was young.

"Have you heard my story?"

Wan Jianyi asked.

Holding the Dragon-Slaying Sword and coming directly to the door, Wan Jianyi knew that this was aimed at him.

"Your face is full of stories."

Gu Qing replied.

Wan Jianyi was silent for a moment after hearing this, then laughed bitterly. In the years of the cultivation world, Wan Jianyi was only middle-aged now, but having wasted a hundred years in this Ancestor Hall, he was indeed decadent.

"Whose disciple are you?"

Wan Jianyi asked in a muffled voice after the silence.

"A disciple of Cangsong of the Profound Heaven Sect."

Gu Qing said, "My master has always been thinking about a Senior Brother Wan, and I happened to learn some strange arts down the mountain, and sensed the call of the Dragon-Slaying Sword..."

Lin Jingyu could become Wan Jianyi's apprentice because of the Dragon-Slaying Sword and Cangsong. Gu Qing now held the Dragon-Slaying Sword, also became Cangsong's apprentice, and came to the Ancestor Hall. Becoming Wan Jianyi's apprentice was not a problem. As long as Wan Jianyi and Cangsong didn't recognize each other, Gu Qing could cheat both sides.

As for Wan Jianyi appearing in front of people...

Daoxuan would seal it.

"So it's Cangsong's disciple."

Wan Jianyi had been guarding the Ancestor Hall for a hundred years and was already an old homebody. Seeing Gu Qing speak well, and being Cangsong Daoist's disciple, and having come to the door, he nodded and said, "Then we are indeed fated, it's just..."

Wan Jianyi was evaluating Gu Qing.

As the person who came into contact with the most secrets in the Profound Heaven Sect, Wan Jianyi could sense the aura of the Heavenly Book, and Gu Qing's aura was harmonious, as if it were the Heavenly Book.

"You seem to have quite a few adventures."

Wan Jianyi asked tentatively.

"Speaking of adventures, there really is one."

Gu Qing sat beside Wan Jianyi and said, "You teach me sword techniques, but it won't be for nothing. I went down the mountain before and happened to get a set of methods to turn white hair black and make the old healthy. Try it. You might be able to return to your youth."

Wan Jianyi listened quietly from the side, feeling that this breathing adjustment was all the truth of Daoist longevity, nourishing the origin and regulating the spirit, which was quite strange.

Wan Jianyi didn't know that Gu Qing possessed the Long-Lasting Spring Art, the Bright Jade Art, the Longevity Art, the Dao Heart Planting Demon Art, etc., and was already familiar with extending life and returning to youth. Now, by slightly adjusting these formulas through the principles in the Heavenly Book and transforming them into the immortal-hero version, it was enough for Wan Jianyi to return to his youth.

Returning to youth and maintaining eternal youth was no longer a matter for Gu Qing.

Wan Jianyi listened quietly, examined Gu Qing quietly, and operated his true essence silently in his body, feeling that the Taiji Profound Purity Dao had opened up other meridians and had other mysteries.

The sky gradually brightened. Gu Qing bid farewell to Wan Jianyi and returned to the accommodation on Tongtian Peak to rest for a while. Xiao Yicai came to the door again. Gu Qing painted for him. Gu Qing drew two pictures, but it took him most of the day. By the afternoon, he wouldn't draw anymore. He walked around Tongtian Peak, and then went to the Ancestor Hall again. This time, he started to ask Wan Jianyi for advice on sword techniques.

Tongtian Peak, Yuqing Hall.

Daoxuan Zhenren got Xiao Yicai's intelligence, looked at the demon images of Kongsang Mountain, pointed his finger at Qinglong, and asked, "Gu Qing twisted this person's arm?"

Xiao Yicai naturally nodded.

Daoxuan Zhenren pondered while looking at the portrait. Xiao Yicai didn't know Qinglong, but Daoxuan Zhenren knew. More than a hundred years ago, this person was miserably defeated by Wan Jianyi's sword and had been hiding in the world ever since. Daoxuan Zhenren just thought this person was dead, didn't expect him to float in the martial arts world again.

And he had his arm twisted by a disciple of the Profound Heaven Sect.

Could it be that he was defeated by Wan Jianyi's sword, his state of mind fell, and he couldn't recover?

"Where is Gu Qing?"

Daoxuan Zhenren wanted to hear what Gu Qing had to say, and also wanted to see this most outstanding genius in the Profound Heaven Sect.

"After he finished painting, he went to the Ancestor Hall."

Xiao Yicai was the chief disciple of Tongtian Peak after all, and knew Gu Qing's whereabouts, saying, "Gu Qing and an old man in the Ancestor Hall are quite compatible."

Daoxuan Zhenren's face stiffened slightly. After Xiao Yicai retreated, he turned around and went towards the Ancestor Hall. Walking along the way, he saw a young man hanging the Dragon-Slaying Sword, his face like ice jade, his bearing extraordinary. After bumping into him, he nodded slightly and walked away. After Daoxuan Zhenren came to the Ancestor Hall, he looked at Wan Jianyi and said, "You look much younger."

Wan Jianyi's mouth hooked, and he said indifferently, "Maybe it's because I'm in a good mood."

Daoxuan Zhenren examined carefully, looked at the wrinkles on Wan Jianyi's face that had decreased a lot, and then looked at the small mountain path, saying, "That young man has good aptitude. How much did you teach him?"

Wan Jianyi stretched out a finger.

"One move?"

Daoxuan Zhenren was surprised.

"That's all that's left."

Wan Jianyi said with his hands down. Gu Qing learned sword techniques at a glance, and was proficient at a glance. Using ordinary sword moves, they were more powerful than those who had been cultivating for decades. Wan Jianyi taught Gu Qing sword moves for ten days, and then a sense of exhaustion arose.

Now Wan Jianyi only had one move left: Ghost-Slaying.

"This move, I have to let him cultivate a bit higher before I dare to teach him."

Wan Jianyi said.

Daoxuan knew which move it was, and was silent after hearing this.

Daoxuan Zhenren had seen geniuses. Whether it was Wan Jianyi or Daoxuan, they were geniuses back then, and then walked step by step. But from genius to now, they walked for more than a hundred years, and how long had Gu Qing been in the sect?

"He has a natural immortal body and is different from others."

Wan Jianyi said after a moment of silence, "Maybe the aptitude of the Qingye Ancestor back then couldn't compare to Gu Qing's."

The Profound Heaven Sect flourished because of a Qingye Ancestor.

Qingyun Mountain, Dragon Head Peak.

In the morning, Gu Qing knocked gently on Qi Hao's door, cupped his hands and held his fists towards Qi Hao, and called out, "Greetings, Senior Brother Qi."

Qi Hao was shocked when he heard this and pinched himself. This thorn Gu Qing would actually greet him? Why would he have such a dream?

Could it be that Gu Qing had other plans?

"Junior Brother Gu."

Qi Hao returned the salute to Gu Qing, full of doubts, and asked, "Has Junior Brother Gu returned from down the mountain?"

Gu Qing had been down the mountain for a long time. Even if he returned, he only greeted Cangsong Daoist, and then went to Tongtian Peak. This was the first time he returned to Dragon Head Peak and greeted Qi Hao.

"Returned."

Gu Qing smiled, met Qi Hao's gaze, and said, "Senior Brother Qi, Junior Brother has made great progress in cultivation this time down the mountain, so I want to ask you for advice."

"Junior Brother Gu, your time in the sect is still short..."

Qi Hao was very surprised. How long had Gu Qing been in the sect, and he actually wanted to challenge him?

Gu Qing smiled. In the Profound Heaven Sect, he wanted to take the position of Peak Master, so he had to show enough talent to make everyone recognize him.
