Chapter 85: Spirit Sword Mountain is really not a thing
When Ji You came down from the Management Tian Shuyuan, the Pill Sect siblings who entered the academy with them had already been invited by Hall Master Fei of the inner courtyard.
And Pill Sect Elder Dan Qiongzi was also in his Buchan Hall at this moment, drinking tea and waiting.
When Yuan Caiwei was lost on the road to protect the pill, now two were saved back by Ji You, so the two sects naturally had to talk about it carefully.
However, the so-called thanks are just incidental.
What they really want to talk about is the raging karma fire in the ruins.
Low-level immortal cultivators might not be able to understand it for a while, but the big figures who hold the power of the immortal sect actually know roughly in their hearts that the demon person used the pill technique secretly passed down by the Pill Sect when ascending.
In the Azure Cloud World, things involving immortal cultivators are major events.
And things involving ascension are major events.
This is the reason why the Pill Sect wants to send a venerable elder to come in person.
On one hand, the Pill Sect also wants to understand the whole thing through Yuan Caiwei, and on the other hand, it is also to announce to other immortal sects through the Heavenly Tian Shuyuan that this matter has nothing to do with them.
Among the current seven major immortal sects, only the Pill Sect did not enter the ruins because it was not good at killing and did not suffer too much damage. The other six major immortal sects all hurt some vitality.
Everyone's anger always needs to find a vent.
It is said that because many people died in the Mountain and Sea Pavilion, they were furious and held the families in the location who had participated in the search for immortal fate accountable one by one.
The Chen family immortal clan is even more thorough because the Abbot was seriously injured. In the past few days, they have been strictly reviewing the identities of all disciples.
All those whose identities are in doubt must either be expelled from the mountain gate or constantly interrogated.
Their sect rules are that incoming disciples need to change their surnames and recognize their ancestors. Originally, it was to strengthen the control over the disciples, but they also paralyzed themselves because of this, and began to be unable to distinguish between real clansmen and fake clansmen.
So in this season of rampant rumors, suspicion gradually began to arise between the immortal sect and the family.
From the perspective of the immortal sect, the Zheng family may just be an example, but maybe not.
From the perspective of the family, the immortal sect in the prosperous age may be a reliance, but the immortal sect in the troubled times is actually no different from a hungry wolf.
But for thousands of years, these behemoths have long been infiltrated into each other, the so-called pulling one hair and moving the whole body, which is extremely difficult to handle.
The key is also the ruins. Did the Zheng family ancestor really refine immortal cultivators with karma fire to ascend, is it a complete game?
On this matter, the views between the sects are very different.
Because the content of the conversation involves the secrets of multiple religious families, outer courtyard disciples like Ji You are naturally unable to participate, even if he is the protagonist of this rescue of the "Pill Sect direct disciple and Abbot's daughter".
At this time, he had already come to the instructor's small courtyard with Cao Jinsong, followed by Pei Ruyi, Ban Yangshu, Wen Zhengxin, Bai Rulong, and Zhuo Wanqiu, who had changed into casual clothes.
Cao Jinsong made tea for the six and spoke: "Did that Spirit Sword Mountain and Asking Dao Sect really attack you just for spiritual stones?"
Old Cao is different from big figures. The Azure Cloud World is too big, and he can't care about all things. He only cares about why his disciples are bullied like this.
"In Qiling, the suppression of evil Qi is extremely strong, and immortal cultivators cannot replenish spiritual energy through breathing, so spiritual stones became the key, and it just so happened that Ding Shijie Pei brought many spiritual stones."
Pei Ruyi heard Wen Zhengxin's explanation and said: "I had already anticipated the risks when I went, and I had also sent a message to Zhengxin, so I exchanged all my assets for spiritual stones."
"So that's how it is..."
Cao Jinsong held the teacup and thought for a moment, then suddenly patted the table emotionally: "Spirit Sword Mountain is really not a thing!"
Zhuo Wanqiu immediately wanted to clench her fist to beat him, but was gently stopped by Ji You.
Cao Jinsong looked at their actions, his eyes slightly surprised: "Brought back another fiancée?"
Ji You: "?"
Bai Rulong was so excited that his eyes were almost filled with tears, thinking to himself that Cao Jiaoxi is truly a confidant of my Long Xiandi Rulong!
However, I don't know if your money bag is iron or not, Cao Jiaoxi!
Ji You thought of the same thing as Long Xiandi Rulong this time, thinking to himself that after my inner emotion is exhausted, I must let you, an old guy, taste what it means to be a bandit.
And the others had strange expressions, thinking to themselves that you said Spirit Sword Mountain people are not things in front of Spirit Sword Mountain disciples, so you must have this kind of reaction.
Ban Yangshu thought for a moment and spoke: "In fact, this matter cannot be considered a conflict between the three sects, but some small people making trouble in it."
Wen Zhengxin couldn't help but nod: "Spirit Sword Mountain disciples actually helped us in the end."
Cao Jinsong waved his hand after hearing this: "It's not up to you to say right or wrong, so this matter is not over."
"How to say?"
"The matter of the ruins has not yet been finalized. What should be investigated should still be investigated, but after there is roughly a result, it will be the time for the immortal sects to settle accounts after the autumn."
Cao Jinsong raised his hand and pulled his wide sleeve to his wrist: "It is said that the demon person in the mountain is the Zheng family ancestor, and he came from the Chen family, so the Chen family will be held accountable, and the Pill Sect in it is also very difficult to clear the relationship, and then it is Spirit Sword Mountain."
Pei Ruyi thought and couldn't help but raise her eyes: "Does the instructor mean that the Heavenly Tian Shuyuan will ask Spirit Sword Mountain for an explanation?"
"Not bad, don't forget the two words that the Management Tian Shuyuan always hangs on their lips."
"Sect prestige."
Cao Jinsong nodded, and then changed his mind: "But Spirit Sword Mountain also has sect prestige, so this matter is more troublesome than the Zheng family. The Chen family being held accountable can be done privately, and secretly ceding something is fine, but sect prestige is a matter on the surface, and it needs a result on the surface. I'm afraid it will form a state of opposition."
Zhuo Wanqiu couldn't help but speak: "It won't be that serious."
"No, you may not know, that Little Inspector of Spirit Sword Mountain is not an ordinary person."
"How to say?"
Cao Jinsong stroked his long beard: "Heavenly Jianfeng's foundation is so deep, but in recent years it has been faintly suppressed by Profound Jianfeng. In the eyes of the outside world, this is all the credit of the spiritual inspector, but it ignores the wisdom and means of that Little Inspector. This woman... is definitely extraordinary."
Ji You couldn't help but sit up straight at the sound, his chest leaning forward.
Cao Jinsong's eyes were surprised: "Hmm, why is your chest so big?"
"Is it? I don't think it's as big as when you were on the White Jade Platform just now."
At this time, the others had their own thoughts, and because what they knew in their hearts was different, the focus of their considerations was also different.
However, thinking about it, the deepest thought in their hearts was that everyone came back alive, which is the best result.
As for ascension, holy artifacts, and people and things like the Little Inspector of Spirit Sword Mountain who can influence the world, they are all too far away from them.
Subsequently, Ban Yangshu, Wen Zhengxin, and Bai Rulong cupped their hands to say goodbye, intending to go back to wash up and rest.
Zhuo Wanqiu's task was also considered finished, so she planned to stay in the city post station for a while and then return to Spirit Sword Mountain.
After they left, Cao Jinsong looked at Ji You and Pei Ruyi.
Some things need to be said by family members behind closed doors.
"What kind of immortal fate did you get in the ruins?"
Pei Ruyi was slightly stunned after hearing this, and then reported truthfully: "There is no immortal fate in the ruins, it is a disaster. None of the immortal sect family disciples who entered it survived."
Cao Jinsong then looked at Ji You.
Ji You was counting silver on the stone stool at this time...
The things in the ruins, what Ding Shijie Pei knew was exactly the same as what he knew, so he didn't need to echo a sentence.
"No immortal fate..."
Cao Jinsong thought for a moment, came back to his senses and said: "Since there is none, then forget it."
Pei Ruyi cupped her hands: "Wang Jiaoxi, then I will also say goodbye first. I haven't returned for many days, and I still need to go back and dry the bedding."
"Go."
Cao Jinsong watched Pei Ruyi go out, his thoughts full of thoughts.
In fact, there is a saying about constitution in this world, such as that Chu family.
It is said that there was once a Chu family head whose body was cut open after death, and the conclusion was reached that their bloodline was a seven-aperture exquisite body.
This constitution is inherently close to the Dao, which is also the reason why their family can prosper and become stronger and stronger.
But because most constitutions in the world are of no help to cultivation, this kind of speculation, conjecture, and research was abandoned early because it was meaningless.
If viewed from this angle, Pei Ruyi's constitution is just ordinary, and her root bone is barely good.
But seeing her again at this time, Cao Jinsong found that she was different. This difference was not because of cultivation, but because her aura carried immortal intent.
The same aura, Ban Yangshu also has it on him.
Cao Jinsong withdrew his gaze and turned to look at Ji You.
He knew that this student of his was also brilliant, just covered by talent.
Pei Ruyi might not know what happened, but Ji You just pretended to count silver, there must be something he wanted to say after Pei Ruyi left.
He felt that this was unnecessary, after all, they were fellow disciples, and such concealment was too cautious.
"Ji You, do you have anything to say?"
"Wang Jiaoxi, before I left, I said that silver is only meaningful when you are alive. What about the silver I deposited with you?"
"??????"
Cao Jinsong stood up: "Rebellious disciple, get out!"
Ji You took out one from the silver notes given by the Management Tian Shuyuan and handed it to his arms: "Give this to that, your little monthly salary has long been clean, right?"
Cao Jinsong immediately reached out and snatched it: "Count you brat as still having a bit of conscience."
Ji You folded the rest, tucked them into his arms.
Although he earned a lot from going out this time, there are many places where he needs to spend money.
For example, swords.
His seven swords were all damaged in the successive battles and needed to be replaced.
In addition, he also planned to go to the Qionghua Pavilion to stroll around and see what else was not worthy of their poor ghosts.
Cao Jinsong tucked the silver note into his sleeve at this time: "The Upper Five Realms is the Realm of All Methods. I told you about this before. You will be taught how to practice methods after entering the inner courtyard, and there are three thousand Dao methods hidden in the Little Little Tian Shu Pavilion. This is the foundation of the Heavenly Tian Shuyuan."
"Understood, all the good things are in the inner courtyard."
"There is still a period of time before the assessment. Although you have reached the Middle Realm of Profound Understanding, you must not take it lightly. The Chu family has a deep foundation, and Chu He may be taught some mysterious Dao methods in advance."
Cao Jinsong used to think that the various assessments of the Heavenly Tian Shuyuan were fair, but now that he thinks about it, this fairness is all because the people in the academy are all noble families.
But ever since a rural private cultivator broke in, and happened to meet the Chu He who was in the spotlight, all kinds of darkness began to breed.
In the final analysis, the level represented by Ji You will make the noble family feel uncomfortable.
"You and Chu He were born in the same era, and the age is not much different. He is very likely to become your lifelong enemy."
Ji You looked like a tiger at the sound: "Him? No, he is not worthy. The Abbot is my enemy in the dark."
Cao Jinsong: "?"
He doesn't know now that Ji You has already thought about how to turn the Heavenly Tian Shuyuan into his mountain stronghold.
