Chapter 319 Guiyuan Sect 19
"Greetings, Master, Sect Master, and all Elders." Huo Yan respectfully bowed and stood beside Qin Che without saying a word.
Their presence gradually diminishes; they become so conspicuous that they are almost unnoticeable unless you look closely.
so many people!
(╥﹏╥)
"Come here!" Yun Zhuan Zunjun had no choice but to mercifully rescue his disciple, who was on the verge of death, and beckoned to him.
Huo Yan's eyes lit up. Without hesitation, he abandoned his companions, moved his feet, and appeared behind his master, using his master's body to shield himself.
He already had a low profile, and the elders in the hall were more focused on Qin Che, who was in the center. The few gazes that were already on him quickly dispersed, and he breathed a long sigh of relief.
Qin Che had never seen his master so serious before, and he had become so upright, showing the demeanor of a junior disciple of the sect leader.
He recounted their experiences in Lanqiuze in a deep and detailed voice.
As he spoke, the elders in the hall grew increasingly somber.
Especially when Long Yuan and the Demon Clan appeared, the elders in the main hall who had disciples in Lanqiuze looked beyond ugly.
The atmosphere inside the hall was as stagnant as ink, unable to move.
After a while.
The person in charge of the hall finally spoke, wanting to give some face to the elders: "Qin Che, take your senior brother Huo Yan and leave! Remember to close the hall door behind you!"
"Yes!" Qin Che was no clueless idiot; he could sense the atmosphere in the hall.
Hearing his master's instructions, he didn't ask any further questions and left with Huo Yan in a swift and decisive manner.
As the main hall doors slammed shut, the hearts of some elders sank with each passing moment.
When Cheng Jiu and the others saw the palace doors close and Qin Che and his companion walk out, they quickly surrounded them.
"Senior brother! What happened inside?"
Qin Che looked bewildered; he didn't know either, he was completely confused.
He recounted what had happened inside the hall.
Cheng Jiu immediately connected this to the delayed rescue efforts! It must be related to this!
With the left and right hall doors closed, they couldn't hear anything.
"Let's go find our senior brother! He must know!" Yingyue suggested.
"it is good!"
Others naturally did not object.
And so the guards under the corridor watched as this group of genius disciples left in a flurry of activity!
Is this just a quirk of a genius disciple?
Reputation has been damaged!
Cheng Jiu and his group were unaware of the guards' thoughts. At this moment, they had already arrived outside Nan Yanzhe's courtyard!
Upon entering the courtyard, a rich sandalwood fragrance immediately greets you, and the entire courtyard is shrouded in mist, making it seem less like an ordinary dwelling and more like a place where one has ascended to immortality.
Sandalwood has always been associated with tranquility, serenity, and a desire for peace of mind.
And Senior Brother Nan's courtyard is practically soaked in sandalwood!
During the time they were away!
What exactly happened to Senior Brother Nan?
Qin Che's voice became cautious: "Senior Brother, are you there?"
The main gate of the courtyard opened automatically without any wind, and the doors of the rooms were wide open.
The first thing you see is a brass incense burner, painted with a hundred birds and dragons at the four corners, exhaling the fragrant smoke emanating from inside.
The baby's radiance is palpable, indicating it's of high quality.
"It's Junior Brother and Junior Sister Cheng Jiu!"
Seeing the person walk out, Cheng Jiu and the others fell silent, their faces filled with astonishment.
Brother Nan, what exactly did you go through?
His clothes were unkempt, his black hair was loosely draped over his shoulders, he wore a wide robe, and he was barefoot on the ground. His face was sleepy, and he looked disheveled, as if he hadn't taken care of himself in a long time.
How could one discern the refined and austere demeanor of a senior disciple? If he were to say that he would take flight in the next moment, Cheng Jiu would believe it.
It's far removed from the human world!
This kind of thing wouldn't be scary on anyone else, but it's especially scary on Nan Yanzhe!
This is the future sect leader, the meticulous and responsible senior brother!
This sight was truly disheartening, casting a shadow over the sect's future.
Faced with such a senior brother, Qin Che didn't dare to be presumptuous, and his voice was somewhat cautious: "Senior brother!"
"Okay! Come in first!" Nan Xingze invited his junior brothers and sisters into the house.
As you step inside, the scent of sandalwood becomes even stronger. In fact, judging from Nan Xingze's previous attire, he is someone who pursues a refined and fashionable lifestyle.
Her clothes and accessories were all exquisite, and even her hair was neatly styled.
Every time he appeared, he was impeccably dressed and had an elegant demeanor.
But at this moment, apart from the bed and the incense burner, the room was bare and very simple; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to describe it as a "snow cave."
Qin Che felt this most keenly; he almost doubted whether he had gone to the wrong place.
His senior brother came from a prominent family and was very particular about his clothes, food, housing, and even his living environment. Unlike now, they didn't even have a chair and were given a futon instead!
"Senior Brother!"
"Junior Brother!"
The two brothers spoke at the same time.
Qin Che spoke first: "Senior Brother, you go first."
"Did you encounter any dangers during this training trip and get injured?"
Nan Yanzhe's light ink-black eyes revealed a hint of worry.
"I'm fine, and I wasn't seriously injured!"
It's true, but as the mastermind behind the White Tiger Formation, he suffered some backlash when the formation broke.
But Junior Sister Cheng Jiu's formation is truly amazing! The formation wasn't broken, so the backlash wasn't severe; she just needed to take some pills to recover.
"Okay." Nan Yanzhe visibly relaxed, his dark eyelashes drooping slightly, making him look somewhat defeated and lonely.
"I'm sorry, senior brother, I'm not capable of arranging rescue for you!"
"It's alright! Senior Brother! Thanks to Immortal Lord Qingxu's timely arrival! We're fine!" Qin Che quickly comforted his usually proud and confident senior brother, seeing him looking so unwell, without daring to inquire about the details.
"That's right, Senior Brother!"
"We don't blame you!"
Cheng Jiu and the others quickly offered words of comfort, but unfortunately, this did little to cheer Nan Yanzhe up.
"Senior Brother! Senior Brother!" Chang Yue stormed in, carrying a large axe.
"Second Senior Sister!" Qin Che jumped up!
"How long are you going to keep this up? Zongwu, if you don't deal with this, now look what's happened! You're not even feeding the eagles anymore!"
He became despondent after suffering such a major setback!
Where is the pride of your sect's senior brother? Get your act together!
"Second Senior Sister! Calm down!" Qin Che tried to soothe her.
"Junior sister, don't worry about me, let's put the eagle... for rent!" Nan Yanzhe said weakly.
"Senior Brother!" Qin Che looked at Nan Yanzhe helplessly, wanting to tell him to stop adding fuel to the fire! His enraged Second Senior Sister was truly terrifying!
"Fine! Fine! Fine!" Chang Yue laughed angrily, "Go ahead and draw your sword and talk to my great axe!"
As he spoke, he swung his axe at the spot where Nan Yanzhe was.
With a sharp axe sound, Nan Yanzhe quickly dodged, somewhat taken aback: "Second Junior Sister!"
Although Chang Yue has a fiery temper, she has always been obedient and polite in front of Nan Yanzhe. She has only ever experienced the power of this axe once.
Qin Che, he really deserves to be taught a lesson!
"You say you don't care about anything? Then don't hide!"
The next moment, the axe struck his most treasured incense burner with great force, imbued with spiritual power. The incense burner, which was radiating a precious light, clattered open with a loud crash, and the overflowing brilliance flashed.
Nan Yanzhe shuddered, feeling a sense of shared pain!
"Junior Sister!"
"Clang!"
Cheng Jiu and the others, still shaken, hid outside the courtyard gate, listening to the occasional sounds of knives chopping wood and Nan Yanzhe's attempts to dissuade them. They couldn't help but feel apprehensive.
Looking at Nan Yanzhe's disheveled figure as he fled, there was no trace of the otherworldly demeanor he had shown just moments before!
That's horrible!
So pitiful!
Senior Brother!
However, seeing that Nan Yanzhe finally showed some signs of life, Cheng Jiu and the others were relieved.
If they always looked the same as when they first met, they wouldn't know what to do!
It's perfect right now!
Nan Yanzhe put on the large Taoist robe, but because he couldn't dodge in time, a piece of his sleeve was cut off, and he was in a very sorry state. He was barefoot and was chased all over the yard by Chang Yue, who was carrying an axe.
Meanwhile, on the wall, the junior sisters and brothers who were originally in the same room had their heads sticking out like mushrooms, hanging on the wall, watching the chase scene with great interest!
It's rare to see Senior Brother Nan in such a sorry state!
Senior Sister Chang Yue is awesome!
Of course, amidst the schadenfreude, everyone also felt a pang of fear. Senior Sister Chang Yue was truly formidable! They dared not provoke her!
A group of people hanging on a wall is naturally very eye-catching, and humans are very curious creatures! They love to join in the fun.
Especially since this is the eldest brother's courtyard!
That's it!
This makes people even more curious!
So while Cheng Jiu and the others were engrossed in watching the dramatic chase between their senior brother and senior sister Chang Yue!
Senior brothers and sisters passing by frequently appear on the wall of the eldest brother's courtyard!
Hmm! It's even more lively now!
Realizing that his second junior sister was not joking, Nan Yanzhe finally summoned his natal sword. Not daring to harm his second junior sister, he could only defend himself while fleeing!
However, he has a higher cultivation level and stronger strength than Chang Yue. As the undisputed senior brother of Guiyuan Sect, Nan Yanzhe is outstanding in all aspects.
He's currently being suppressed by Chang Yue simply because he doesn't want a direct confrontation with Chang Yue and started his attack relatively late.
Once he obtained his natal sword, his entire demeanor changed. He fought and retreated, seizing the opportunity, bending down to dodge Chang Yue's attack. His sword swiftly scraped past the large axe in Chang Yue's hand, forcing her to discard her weapon.
As Chang Yue unconsciously loosened his grip, he grabbed the axe with his other hand, lifted it up, and disarmed the axe!
The entire movement was fluid and exquisite!
"it is good!"
Having finally managed to snatch his junior sister's weapon, Nan Yanzhe breathed a sigh of relief, feeling quite pleased with himself. He then heard a chorus of cheers and saw his junior brothers and sisters watching from the walls, rooftops, and courtyard gates, even from the "thin" vines!
That place was packed with people!
In other words, his senior brother was just chased around by his junior sister in a disheveled and embarrassing manner, which was also seen by the senior brother!
!!!∑(°Д°ノ)ノ
He can go die, really!
What is the meaning of life? Why live in this world?
At this moment, Huo Yan felt a deep empathy for Nan Yanzhe!
It's a pity that Nan Yanzhe doesn't have Huo Yan's low profile!
As the eldest disciple, he could only face the world with strength!
"Junior brothers and sisters! You seem to have a lot of free time!"
Nan Yanzhe gave a forced smile, his eyes sweeping over everyone around him.
Those who were swept away felt a chill and dared not respond, while the birds scattered and fled at high speed.
Qin Che was the fastest runner, grabbing Cheng Jiu and the others and running away as fast as he could, afraid of being remembered by his senior brother.
Who told him to watch the whole thing and be the closest to Nan Yanzhe?
Others might be able to dodge it! But he definitely can't!
"Then, senior brother! I'm off too! Remember to feed the eagle."
Chang Yue, the person involved, dared not stay any longer. Senior Brother, this time you've really lost face. As the culprit, how could you dare to stay!
They were completely devoid of their initial aggressive and spirited demeanor.
"Go ahead!" Nan Yanzhe waved his hand. He could never bear to blame his second junior sister. After all, as the junior sister who was closest in age to him, she had always been the most reliable, obedient and considerate assistant in sect affairs.
After Chang Yue left, looking at the mess in the courtyard, Nan Yanzhe's straight back finally collapsed!
There was no way to escape the world; reality was simply too fierce and domineering, leaving him no way to escape!
Nan Yanzhe dejectedly tidied up the mess.
Chang Yuemu was overjoyed with her success and walked happily back to the hospital. When she was not far from her residence, she stopped and said, "You little rascals, stop hiding! Come out!"
Qin Che emerged from the concealment formation, looking curious: "Senior Sister, how did you find out? I thought we were hiding very well!"
Cheng Jiu nodded, very curious. This formation was provided by Cheng Jiu herself, and she considered herself to be quite skilled in formations.
Putting everything else aside, in theory, it should be easy to fool someone at the Nascent Soul stage!
"I didn't notice anything?" Senior Sister Chang Yue blinked. "It's just that I always felt like someone was following me. I was just trying to trick you guys into jumping out!"
intuition!
There's nothing we can do about that!
Cheng Jiu shrugged helplessly.
"Come in! Did you come to see your senior sister about something?"
Senior Sister Chang Yue's courtyard is quite antique. The courtyard is not located in the center of the sect's main peak, but near the edge, and it covers a very large area.
In addition to the palace in the main courtyard, there is a river and a large peach orchard.
The peach orchard was intentionally planted with high-grade spiritual fruit trees, and this season was the perfect time to eat them. Senior Sister Changyue brought a large basket of fruit for the group.
Qin Che, being a male disciple, rarely came to the female disciples' area, and he never expected that Senior Sister Chang Yue would have such a peach blossom grove!
My senior sister's palace smelled wonderful, the chair cushions were very soft and embroidered with delicate flowers, and the vase on the antique shelf held a few peach blossoms, making it look very elegant!
The interior of the hall was rather disorganized, and the most eye-catching thing was the familiar large table in the side room, which seemed to have just been moved there.
The scrolls on the table were densely packed with documents related to religious affairs. They were arranged on both sides in a messy yet orderly manner. It was impossible to tell which side had been reviewed and which side had not. Just looking at the large number of scrolls, it was understandable why Senior Sister Chang Yue was so frustrated!
After all, since the eldest brother doesn't handle affairs, most of the sect's matters can only be left to Senior Sister Changyue to resolve!
As for the sect leader, trying to rehire someone who has gradually relinquished their authority and become a hands-off manager is easier than it would be easier for Senior Sister Chang Yue to handle it herself.
The sect leader might not refuse, but sect affairs will definitely pile up, and Nan Yanzhe will be asked to handle them after everything is resolved.
With so many clan affairs, Chang Yue still couldn't escape them in the end. After all, she couldn't bring herself to leave Nan Yanzhe to handle them alone.
After all, they are fellow students, so naturally they should lend a hand.
Sipping tea and eating fruit and pastries, Cheng Jiu withdrew his observational gaze and refocused on the main subject.
