Chapter 155: The Only Golden Core of the Xianxia Sect, the Former Sect Master Falls

"Alright, but I don't know how we should travel?"

Zhou Sui asked curiously.

After all, the Cloud Mist Mountain Range is still a long distance from the Xianxia Sect headquarters, at least several thousand kilometers.

"We will first return to Miyun City."

"Then we will take a Flying Boat back to the Xianxia Sect."

"One cannot take a Flying Boat in the Cloud Mist Mountain Range, because there are too many Monster Beasts here, and it is very easy to disturb the Third-tier Monster Beasts here."

Foundation Establishment Elder Ren Hui explained.

When they entered the Cloud Mist Mountain Range, they also entered on foot.

After all, the entire Cloud Mist Mountain Range is enveloped in clouds and mist; if one were to take a Flying Boat, it would be very easy to get lost.

One might even accidentally stumble into the lair of a Second-tier Monster Beast, and then it would be all over.

"Good."

Hearing this, Zhou Sui nodded.

Then Ji Bingyu and the others simply packed their things and left the valley where they had lived for more than a year, heading toward the Xianxia Sect to begin a brand-new life.

To be honest, he was also very much looking forward to going to the Xianxia Sect.

He also didn't know what a legendary Golden Core sect was actually like.

This was the lifelong dream of his predecessor, and also the dream of countless Loose Cultivators.

Yet he had achieved it so easily, though of course, he did not enter through the regular channels.

He entered purely by marrying the Xianxia Sect Master.

It could be considered taking the back door.

…………

At this very moment, at the Xianxia Sect headquarters, the main peak, Xianxia Peak.

A white-robed old man lay weakly on the bed, his breath as thin as a thread; he was the former Sect Master of the Xianxia Sect, Leng Chan.

He was also the father of Leng Yuexi.

On the surface, the Xianxia Sect had won a great victory in this sect war, but in reality, Leng Chan had also suffered heavy injuries.

Added to his advanced age, he had basically reached his final moments.

It was not just Leng Chan; even the Supreme Elder of the Xianxia Sect, Yuan Chen, had exhausted his Longevity and died.

The entire Xianxia Sect was left with only one Golden Core Real Person, Leng Yuexi.

To be honest, if it weren't for Leng Yuexi advancing to the Golden Core stage, the great Xianxia Sect would have faced a gap in its succession.

It might have just disappeared into the long river of history like that.

"Yuexi, do you hate me? Do you hate me for not going to save you?"

Leng Chan looked at his daughter.

"I do."

Leng Yuexi did not hesitate and spoke indifferently.

"Good, worthy of being my daughter, daring to act and daring to speak, straightforward and frank; it is only right that you hate me."

"But I did it all for the Xianxia Sect. If I had gone to save you, the Xianxia Sect would have been completely finished, so I have no regrets."

"Fortunately, you are a person of great Luck; not only did you survive the disaster, but you also advanced to the Golden Core stage, which can be considered the good fortune of my Xianxia Sect."

"The pity is that I am about to die, so you won't have to hate me for much longer."

Leng Chan smiled, looking very open-minded.

When a person reaches the moment of death, they see through everything.

Even if his daughter resented him, it didn't matter to him; when a person dies, everything becomes empty.

Hearing this, Leng Yuexi remained expressionless, still quietly watching her father, saying nothing at all.

"By the way, after I die, do not announce the news of my death; just say that I am in seclusion."

"After all, it is very normal for a Golden Core Cultivator to be in seclusion for decades."

"The Xianxia Sect having two Golden Cores is better than having one; this can also deter other sects."

"As for the news of Supreme Elder Yuan Chen's death, it doesn't matter if it is announced."

"He lived long enough anyway, so it is no surprise that he has died now."

"Moreover, our Xianxia Sect having two Golden Cores can also put sects like the Qingmu Sect and the Pill Cauldron Sect at ease, so they won't pose too great a threat, and it will also facilitate the survival of our Xianxia Sect."

Leng Chan chattered on, beginning to arrange his affairs after death.

"Mm."

Leng Yuexi nodded.

"By the way, is that man you ordered Elder Ren Hui to bring to the Xianxia Sect really your Dao Companion?"

"Is that man reliable at all?"

Leng Chan changed the subject and suddenly brought up this matter.

After all, the other party was his daughter's Dao Companion, so it was impossible for him not to be concerned.

The cabbage he had raised for so many years had been taken away by another man, and his feelings were very complicated.

"He is reliable, much more reliable than you, Father."

"The reason the poison in my body could be cleared is all because of him."

"Even my successful formation of the Golden Core this time is to his credit."

"Without him, I probably wouldn't have been able to return this time."

Hearing her father mention Zhou Sui, Leng Yuexi's expression was clearly much softer, lacking the icy coldness from before.

Her heart also began to thump wildly, and a very intense emotion surged within her.

After all, she had not seen her husband for a month, so naturally, she missed him immensely.

"Not bad, as long as he is reliable; the most important thing when looking for a man is reliability."

"Your judgment, I have always trusted."

"It is a pity that I will not be able to live to see that Dao Companion of yours."

Leng Chan felt very regretful, yet his heart was suddenly set at ease.

Although he felt quite displeased that the cabbage of his own family had been snatched away by someone else, seeing his daughter's expression, she seemed to truly love that Dao Companion, and that was completely enough.

Of course, he had also heard that the man was only a Qi Refining stage Cultivator.

But what of it?

A Golden Core male Cultivator can take in a whole crowd of Qi Refining stage female Cultivators or Foundation Establishment stage female Cultivators.

Then a Golden Core female Cultivator can naturally do the same thing.

If she is dissatisfied in the future, she can simply kick the other party away.

After all, as a dignified Golden Core Real Person, isn't taking in a few male concubines a trivial matter?!

Regardless, in the world of immortal cultivation, cultivation base and strength are still more important.

As long as one possesses powerful strength, one can do whatever one wants.

Boom~~

Just at this moment, Leng Chan's neck tilted to the side, and he collapsed onto the bed just like that, the aura on his body vanishing rapidly.

Clearly, having finished saying these words, he had exhausted his final breath.

After entrusting all matters, he breathed his last and died.

"Father, go in peace."

Sensing the aura of her father's complete passing, the emotions in Leng Yuexi's beautiful eyes were very complex and mixed; she did not know what else to say.

Although she did indeed resent her father's heartlessness, she could also understand her father's actions.

But regardless, when a person dies, the debts are cleared.

Since her father was already dead, there was nothing more to be said about the various things from before.

Of course, she was not overly sorrowful.

Her father had lived for over four hundred years, longer than the duration of a secular dynasty.

Having enjoyed all the riches and honors of the human world, this life could be considered worth it.

From a certain perspective, this could also be considered a joyous funeral.

Swoosh!

Thinking of this, Leng Yuexi waved her hand, immediately placing her father's remains into a coffin that had been prepared long ago, and then placed it inside his Cave Abode.

After all, she needed to maintain the facade that her father was still in seclusion.

If other sects were to know that now only she remained as a Golden Core Real Person in the entire Xianxia Sect, I fear other sects would harbor ill intentions, and the Xianxia Sect would face turmoil once again.

Although she did not know how long her father's affairs could be hidden, at the very least, it could be hidden for several decades.

By then, her cultivation base would have advanced further, and she would no longer need to worry about other matters.
