I am a late bloomer in the world of immortality

Secondly.

Let's take a step back.

If Wei Tu really did it, it would not be appropriate for her to question Wei Tu now. After all, a person with such unknown and unpredictable strength might not be afraid of her, a powerful Void Refining expert who was still seriously injured and had lost all his strength.

"After this battle, Master Su Xin was seriously injured and went into seclusion. The great elder Yin Xuanyuan died tragically... Several high-ranking members of the Qingling Sect were also killed by the Yunzhong bandits. The sect is no longer in good shape."

Chang Xianweng continued.

Then, Chang Xianweng thought for a moment and talked about the current situation of Qingling Sect.

For example, the sect was being managed by the young sect leader Nan Hengzi, and the Shenhuo Temple was secretly putting pressure on the sect, so the sect was in turmoil both inside and outside...

Upon hearing this, Su Xin, who had been secretly rejoicing over Yin Xuanyuan's death, suddenly had a gloomy and self-blaming look in her eyes.

The winner becomes the king, the loser becomes the bandit.

There was nothing wrong with her planning and ambushing the Seven Desires Evil Monk to avenge her fellow sister - this was her duty as the sect leader.

But after that battle, the Seven Desires Evil Monk did not die, which meant that she, as the sect leader, had failed in her duty.

It was she who brought Qingling Sect into such danger!

"The Seven Desires Evil Monk committed adultery, robbery, and atrocities, and was hated by the entire Divine Fire Temple. After the death of Master Chai, I killed him and no one would blame me... But now that he is alive, he has his father's connections to take care of him. This matter has become my fault and the fault of the Qingling Sect."

Master Su Xin bit her thin lip. While she was dissatisfied with the Shenhuo Temple, she was also more worried about the current situation of the Qingling Sect.

The Qingling Sect is also a famous sect in the Divine Fire Immortal Realm.

No matter how biased the Shenhuo Temple is, it will not destroy the Qingling Sect and give itself an excuse.

However, it would be easy to change the mindset, exert pressure, force the direct lineage of Qingling Sect to "replace people", and support a spokesperson.

Aside from the master who guards the Godly Wasteland...

The two most powerful fighters in the Qingling Sect's direct lineage are her and Yin Xuanyuan.

Now, with one dead and one missing, it is difficult to guarantee that the elders of other branches have no idea about this.

"Heng'er, there will be danger!"

"Nephew Wei, I plan to return to Qingling Sect and take charge of the sect to maintain peace both inside and outside... This burden is too heavy to be shouldered by Heng'er alone."

Master Su Xin said this in a firm and unquestionable tone.

"As for you..."

"You are not a cultivator of my Qingling Sect, so there is no need for you to accompany me back to the sect and take risks now. When... the time is right in the future, it will not be too late for you to return to Qingling Sect."

Master Su Xin considered his words carefully.

She said this sincerely, not out of hypocrisy. After all, she was not the kind of person who would repay kindness with enmity. She knew how dangerous it would be for Wei Tu to return to Qingling Sect at this time.

However--

The next moment.

Wei Tu's answer was beyond Su Xin's expectations, and it also made her feel warm in her heart.

He did not stop her or abandon her at this moment. Instead, he supported her decision and expressed his willingness to take the risk and return to the sect with her.

In this regard, Wei Tu’s reasons are simple and realistic.

It was for Master Su Xin's previous promise to make him the "Refining Void Seed" of Qingling Sect.

"Originally, I was planning to use the Immortal Realm Teleportation Formation of the Divine Fire Temple to go to the Holy Emperor Realm to meet Senior Jiang Lingzi... But now, since my name has spread to those people in the Divine Fire Temple who have a history with the Seven Desires Evil Monk's biological father, it is foreseeable that this matter will be somewhat difficult."

"Therefore, planning the fate of Lianxu Immortal here is not only necessary for me, but also the most beneficial."

Wei Tu analyzed very rationally.

There was one thing he hadn't said yet: the pressure from the Shenhuo Temple was indeed worth noting, but that was all.

After all, Master Chai is dead.

The Qingling Sect is a great refining sect that has been glorious for thousands of years. How could it not have any power in the Shenhuo Temple?

The Qingling Sect's so-called precarious situation...

It was just some hints leaked by the bigwigs in Shenhuo Temple to the people below.

In a word, it has not yet come to the point of starting a war just for the "remaining feelings" of a dead person.

When a person dies, the kitchen becomes cold.

It is difficult to reach the point where one can personally take action to deal with the Qingling Sect.

Before this, the seven major immortal sects that were suppressing the Seven Desires Evil Monk were still doing well when Master Chai was still alive, let alone now.

Even if it ends...

We have to deal with the taller one, Master Su Xin, first.

But in all things, judge by deeds, not by intention.

What Master Su Xin values ​​is that Wei Tu is loyal to her at this moment.

"As long as I am here, the next Qingling Sect's Void Refining Cultivator will definitely be you, Junior Brother Wei."

Master Su Xin promised again with absolute certainty.

…

Chang Xianweng, who was standing by, was paying attention to the changes in Wei Tu and Su Xin's expressions after they heard about the current situation of Qingling Sect.

However, it is hard to believe that even if he was beaten to death, the female cultivator in the veiled hat who was standing close to Wei Tu and looked like a couple of gods was the famous Master Su Xin in the Qingling Sect.

Therefore, although he was curious about this scene, he was sensible and did not ask too many questions. After sending Wei Tu and Master Su Xin out of Wangyue Peak, he immediately closed the cave and devoted all his energy to reaching the Spirit Transformation Realm, ignoring worldly affairs.

Since we want to shock the Qingling Sect inside and outside...

This time, Wei Tu and Master Su Xin naturally did not return to the sect in secret or conceal the fact.

As a magical power floated, Wei Tu was actively pulled behind the buttocks of Master Su Xin, and under the flying of his magical cloud, he headed towards Qingling Sect openly.

The Qingling Sect is loose on the outside but tight on the inside.

Near the mountain gate, everything is still the same as before.

But as soon as he stepped into the mountain gate, Wei Tu instantly sensed dozens of spiritual senses spying on him.

"The master is back?"

"After disappearing for a year, the Sect Master and Deputy Hall Master Wei returned together?"

The cultivators were extremely surprised. Some of them looked happy inside the cave, while others had flickering eyes and gloomy expressions.

The difference between a loyal minister and a treacherous minister is often just a matter of one thought.

Before the battle to ambush and kill the Seven Desires Evil Monk, they were all staunch loyalists to the sect, but after the battle, the situation changed drastically, and for the sake of profit, they had no choice but to go down the wrong path.

However, in addition to these normal thoughts, there are also some monks who admire the master Su Xin. After seeing this scene, they can't help but wonder: What happened to Wei Tu and Su Xin during the year they disappeared? Did they spend every day together?

Considering the close relationship between the two at the moment, it is probably true.

"Brother Wei, have you brought Master back?"

Inside the sect's main hall, Nan Hengzi, the "acting sect leader", watched this scene with tears in his eyes, muttering to himself in his heart.

During this year, all the cultivators of Qingling Sect believed that Wei Tu had “disappeared”—either he was killed by the Seven Desires Evil Monk and the two great cultivators of the Incarnation Realm who came from the bandits in the Clouds, or he saw that the situation was not good and fled the battlefield in fear of being held accountable, and did not dare to return to Qingling Sect...

Only he had a glimmer of hope in his heart, thinking that Wei Tu, who had protected him and was willing to stay alone on the battlefield that day, was not so narrow-minded.

This "good intention" finally borne fruit today!

——Wei Tu not only returned to the sect, but also brought back his most beloved and respected master.

As a disciple of Master Su Xin, he was familiar with Master Su Xin's thoughts. It was not difficult for him to guess that Master Su Xin must have suffered serious and incurable injuries during this year, otherwise he would not have been "absent" from the sect for a whole year.

And Wei Tu, who is accompanying him at this moment, has been protecting Master Su Xin and guarding his safety for the past year, otherwise he would not have received such "courtesy" today.

——He was approached by Master Su Xin and personally brought back to the sect.

You know, in the past, only his direct disciple had the opportunity to enjoy this position.

"Master, Senior Brother Wei..."

Nan Hengzi flew out from the sect's main hall, stepped forward to greet Master Su Xin, and looked at Wei Tu with a very friendly look.

He couldn't wait to ask Wei Tu what happened during the time when the two of them disappeared.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

"Heng'er, thank you for your hard work during the time when I was away." Master Su Xin nodded slightly and praised him.

“I don’t dare!”

"As the young master, I should naturally shoulder this important responsibility and share the worries for my master."

Hearing the praise, Nan Hengzi subconsciously straightened his chest and raised his head, feeling very pleased.

But the next moment.

Master Su Xin's next words caught him off guard.

He looked around at the group of incarnation elders who came to greet him, and said softly:

"This time, Junior Brother Wei protected me and escaped from the clutches of the devil in times of danger, and he performed a great deed. I have promised that I would give Junior Brother Wei the quota for the next Void Refining Realm cultivator in the sect. Today is the time, and I will not break my promise lightly."

After he finished speaking, Master Su Xin flicked his sleeves and released the powerful pressure of a powerful Void Refiner.

Suddenly——

The atmosphere around him suddenly became quiet.

But on the surface, all the elders who had attained the state of transformation showed expressions of joy, and congratulated Master Su Xin on his breakthrough to the "Refining Void Realm", and also praised Wei Tu a few words.

"Master has reached the Void Refining Realm?"

Seeing this scene, Nan Hengzi was delighted that Master Su Xin had achieved a breakthrough in her realm, but he also felt a little jealous.

After all, the sect's internal resources were tilted towards cultivating Void-Refining Monks, and after Master Su Xin, he was the next in line.

Now, Master Su Xin emphasized this point, which meant that Wei Tu wanted to snatch his "ecological niche"!

"That's right! Senior Brother Wei has made great contributions. If not for this, there is no way to reward Senior Brother Wei handsomely." Nan Hengzi comforted himself in his heart.

However, subconsciously, he also vaguely felt that there seemed to be an invisible gap of estrangement between him and Master Su Xin at this moment.

But Wei Tu was among them.

In fact, closer than before when he was a direct disciple.

"Maybe it's an illusion." Nan Hengzi shook his head secretly, and his mind couldn't help but recall the oath he made a year ago - 'After escaping the difficulties, I will regard Wei Tu as a real brother'. He couldn't help but blame himself for being jealous and not having the slightest tolerance.

When it comes to Wei Tu, Master Su Xin has always adhered to the spirit of hospitality.

There is still a difference between us and our own family.

Otherwise, there wouldn’t have been such a high-profile announcement at this moment about Wei Tu becoming a “Refining Void Seed”.

He knows this very well!

Maintaining tacit understanding and synchronization with Master Su Xin.

…

"Welcome the Sect Master back to the Sect."

Nan Hengzi bowed and spoke first.

As soon as he finished speaking, he stood up very naturally and flew behind Master Su Xin, standing side by side with Wei Tu like a boy on the left or right.

However, what Nan Hengzi did not notice was that when Master Su Xin accepted him with the Dharma Cloud, her dark eyebrows slightly frowned, and she was obviously more hesitant.

This is not because of any dissatisfaction towards Nan Hengzi.

Rather, it was after the betrayal of his fellow senior brother Yin Xuanyuan that Master Su Xin became naturally wary of people he used to be close to.

Now, only Wei Tu, who risked his life to save her, can make her let down her guard and expose herself to him without any defense.

soon.

The other monks then entered the hall to discuss matters.

During this meeting, Master Su Xin not only confirmed Nan Hengzi's right to inherit as the young master, but also directly announced Yin Xuanyuan's rebellion in front of all the elders.

Then, Master Su Xin issued a strict order that all the elders who had been close to Yin Xuanyuan in the past must lock themselves in their caves and remain in seclusion during this turbulent time, otherwise they would be severely punished.

This iron-fisted measure immediately made some of the elders who were at the God Transformation stage present look angry, but they dared not speak out due to Master Su Xin's accumulated prestige and powerful strength over the years.

"In times of chaos, severe punishments should be used! If you are always gentle, people will look down on you and mistakenly think you have no one to rely on..."

Wei Tu narrowed his eyes slightly, and agreed with Master Su Xin's courage to take iron-fisted measures at this moment.

After all, no matter how rebellious a person is, he would not be so stubborn as to joke with his own life.

Including the Shenhuo Temple that put pressure on the Qingling Sect...

This time, the Shang Sect was not afraid of Master Su Xin who had already reached the Lianxu Realm, but the two sects were not mortal enemies, so there was no need to give people a chance to talk about it. They still wanted to hold on to the Qingling Sect because of the "old matter" of the Seven Desires Evil Monk.

so--

As long as nothing happens during this period...

Exposing the weakness of Su Xinshangren.

With this "fox borrowing the power of the tiger" strategy, there is a great chance that he can peacefully hold on until Master Su Xin's injuries are healed.

"The master is wise."

Soon, Master Su Xin's words were approved by all the elders. Even those Jindan monks who were confined and secluded did not dare to speak out against it.

Next.

Master Su Xin was very energetic. He was inquiring into and handling all the sect affairs, big and small, that had occurred in the past year, in great detail.

Until late at night.

The sect's meeting had just ended.

After most of the elders in the hall had left, Master Su Xin stood up and prepared to leave.

"Heng'er, Junior Brother Wei, the two of you come with me."

Master Su Xin flicked her sleeves and called out Fayun, motioning the two to follow her to the cave to discuss a secret matter.

Hearing this, Nan Hengzi felt relieved, thinking that his master had not forgotten him.

only--

As soon as they arrived at the living room of the cave, Master Su Xin's face suddenly changed. She hurriedly flew to her boudoir and summoned Wei Tu to come in, leaving Nan Hengzi alone staring blankly.

But Nan Hengzi was not stupid, and he quickly guessed the truth why Master Su Xin’s injuries had not healed.

"But why did Master only allow Senior Brother Wei to enter?"

He was very confused. (End of this chapter)
