Disciples always want to tease me [Rebirth]

The fourth elder, who ignored him, turned his target to Goutian, "I said nephew, no one has treated you badly in Lingxiaozong. With your aptitude, your ascension is just around the corner, so why bother with demon cultivators?"

Gou Tian's expression softened a bit, although he still had a straight face, but he clearly felt the softness in his tone, "I encountered an accident a hundred years ago and went to the northwest, and I didn't come out of the northwest until this year, I don't know what happened matter."

"Accident?" The Fourth Elder said, but looked at the First Elder.

The Great Elder was expressionless, standing there calmly, even Goutian didn't dare to say it out, after all, how can he slander something like a slander without any evidence?

Goutian said calmly: "Space crack. A space crack appeared near my cave, and I was sucked into it."

The third elder frowned, "What you said is true?" Space cracks are no small matter, and they might turn the entire sect into a forbidden area.

Gou Tian said: "I'm not going to lie about this kind of thing."

"Then what happened to the demon cultivator next to you?"

Gou Tian said: "Bai Ruyi is the weapon spirit that I accepted a hundred years ago. I have already reported this matter to the sect."

The Fourth Elder sighed and said with a smile: "Nephew, you don't know that the origin of your weapon spirit is unusual. Now it is no longer a matter of our sect. If it is a matter of the sect, at worst you can betray the sect Well."

"Cough!" The third elder glared at him.

The Fourth Elder continued to go his own way and said: "Now it is the matter of the entire Zhonglu Xianxiu, you can't go back to Zhonglu for the rest of your life, right?"

Gou Tian was puzzled and said, "What's the matter?"

"It's a long story to talk about. When we return to the sect, the suzerain will talk about it in detail." The fourth elder said with a smile.

Qiao Yang spat in his heart. The old man Bai was smiling on the surface, and the bad water in his stomach couldn't keep up with ten elders. Is there any possibility of escaping after returning to the sect?Isn't the sheep being crushed and beaten when it goes into the tiger's mouth?

Xiang Liu, who hadn't happened for a long time, took a step forward, hiding Gou Tian and the two behind him, "It just so happens that I also want to visit the noble sect."

The Third Elder found out that he couldn't see through Xiang Liu's cultivation, he was startled, exchanged a look with the First Elder, smiled and said, "Senior is...?"

Qiao Yang patted his head, blaming Xiang Liu for being unprincipled, almost forgetting that he is also a boss.

"Gongliang willow."

"Gongliang..." the third elder was a little surprised, "Senior is from the Gongliang family?"

"That's right." Xiang Liu said, "I went to the Northwest to retreat for many years, and I don't have much contact with the Gongliang family."

"Since senior wants to come, I will sweep the couch to welcome you." The third elder agreed without hesitation.

Several people made an agreement, and the tense atmosphere just now eased. They separated a certain distance and flew towards Ling Xiaozong. The First Elder took the lead, and the Third Elder surrounded Gou Tian after he broke up.

Xiang Liu followed Gou Tian, ​​and lowered his voice, "So you guys are so hated?"

Qiao Yang looked up to the sky meaningfully and sighed, "It's all my fault that I was born excellent and was envied by others."

"..."

The Fourth Elder couldn't help but rolled his eyes when he heard this, "Can you stop laughing at yourself?"

Qiao Yang grinned and bared his white teeth. The Fourth Elder had more eyes than others, but at any rate he also had the grace to teach him, so he still had to give him a good face.

The Lingxiao Sect has passed a hundred years, and it is still the same. Even the two big trees in front of the mountain gate have never grown thicker, but after entering the sect, they feel a little bleak. The sect has lost the popularity of the past, and even the air is empty. A little more depressed, as if after a baptism, more like the calm before the storm.

Gou Tian frowned, it seemed that something major had happened in the sect, and he couldn't possibly have brought this matter, but it's a pity that he died in the ancient formation before the memory of his previous life reached here .He subconsciously squeezed Qiao Yang's hand.

Qiao Yang's nerves immediately tensed up. Every time the master took the initiative to shake hands in a large audience, it was a signal to slip away.

This time Goutian didn't want to run away, he followed several elders into the meeting hall.In the meeting hall, an eighteen or nineteen-year-old boy sat at the top, and the Fifth Elder sat on his right. There is no doubt about the suzerain of the early stage.

This is the first time that Goutian saw the suzerain in his previous and present lives. In the previous life, the suzerain never showed up until he was forced to death. It was given to the fifth elder and the third elder, the fifth elder managed internal affairs, and the third elder managed foreign affairs.

The sect master's eyes, which had been closed all the time, suddenly opened when Gou Tian came in. He looked in Gou Tian's direction for a while, and then slowly said, "You are Gou Tian?"

Isn't this nonsense?Qiao Yang lowered his head and couldn't help complaining.

Gou Tian narrowed his eyes slightly, why does this suzerain feel that something is wrong?

The corner of the suzerain's mouth twitched, as if he was very dissatisfied with Goutian's refusal to answer, so he stopped talking and froze all of a sudden.

The fifth elder smiled very kindly: "Nephew Gou, you often retreat, you probably don't know that this is the suzerain of our Lingxiao Sect."

Gou Tian finally saluted and said, "I have seen the suzerain."

The suzerain nodded slightly, "Sit down and talk." He waited for everyone to take their seats before continuing, "Xingyuan has just told me about you. We monks are not bound by worldly rules in practice. Cultivation level, it is good for you to stay in the sect, and I will not force you to leave if you want to."

Gou Tian said: "Thank you, Sovereign, for your understanding." He didn't ask why the words at the door were different from those of the elders, nor did he ask why he was wanted in the cultivation world a long time ago. If you can't ask the result, the suzerain doesn't care about anything, let alone understand these things.

The suzerain waved his hand and said: "This time I am anxious to find you back because of one thing. Have you ever heard of Tianjiu Temple?"

"Tianjiu Temple?" Goutian repeated it, as if he had heard it somewhere.

Qiao Yang reminded in a low voice: "The demon cultivator."

Gou Tian said calmly, "The first sect of demon cultivators."

"That's right." The suzerain said: "The demon cultivator has always practiced in the north, and it's not the same as Lu Xian's repairing the well. But a few years ago, he discovered the spies of the Tianjiu Temple in various sects. After soul searching and torture, I learned their purpose."

Searching for souls is usually done only by demon cultivators. Gou Tian was a little surprised when the suzerain said it so openly. It seems that the suzerain is really used to being unruly.

The fifth elder took out a portrait, and when he opened it, it actually showed Bai Ruyi inside, "They came to Zhonglu this trip to find this demon cultivator, your weapon spirit, Bai Ruyi."

Goutian was a little surprised, "What does Bai Ruyi have to do with Tianjiu Palace?"

The Fifth Elder smiled and said, "We'll have to ask her about that."

Gou Tian pursed his lower lips slightly, "If Bai Ruyi really has something to do with Tian Jiu Temple, I will let her come out."

The suzerain said: "This is just the beginning. The Tianjiu Temple took the opportunity to make troubles. There are constantly monsters and demon cultivators breaking through the dividing line and coming to our central land to make trouble. In recent days, we have received news that the Tianjiu Temple is going to conduct a large-scale They are going to come to Zhonglu to snatch resources. Some people suspect that Bai Ruyi has been lurking in Lingxiaozong for many years, collecting information from various Xianxiu sects and Zhonglu and passing it to Tianjiu Temple."

It is not easy for a demon cultivator to sneak into the crowd of human cultivators, otherwise those demon cultivators would not be so easy to find, and it would be even more difficult to get into Bai Ruyi's position. If Bai Ruyi is really Tianjiudian sect The spy who came here, it has to be said that Tianjiu Temple set up a bureau a long time ago, even sacrificing Bai Ruyi's practice and reincarnation opportunities to refine her into a weapon spirit, in order to get close to Lingxiaozong or Wanguzong people, mix into in.

The suzerain continued: "Whether this guess is true or not, we must give everyone an explanation. There will be a meeting in the sect in the future, and all sects will participate in the meeting. You can let Bai Ruyi come out at that time. Today is these things, You go and investigate the matter of the space crack, Goutian, I still have something to tell you, you stay here. Fellow Daoist Gongliang came from afar, you should take a good rest, Xingyuan, you take Fellow Daoist Gongliang to the meeting Binge."

"Yes." The people in the room cleared up in less than a minute. Before leaving, the First Elder took a look at Gou Tian's place, and then looked away.

The suzerain said: "Whether Bai Ruyi is a spy of Tianjiu Palace or not, the future battle is inevitable. I know that every monk has his own choice, but I still hope that you can stay in Lingxiaozong. You also know the current practice of cultivating Taoism." The world is not doing well, and there are not many monks above Nascent Soul, if the Tianjiu Temple launches an attack, then our chances of winning are not much."

Gou Tian said: "The suzerain is not afraid that I am also a spy?"

The suzerain laughed and said, "It's not my race that can be punished. Do you think that if you are a spy, Tianjiu Temple will really accept you?"

The suzerain is a sensible person, Goutian said after listening, "I have one condition."

"please say."

"I want to ask my master to get back the things that were close to me when he took me in." Gou Tian said, "I was young at the time, so I don't remember very clearly, but there must be something on me, clothes, The shoes are also good, I want to find my parents."

The suzerain said: "This is not difficult. I heard that you and your master have some disagreements. I will send other people to communicate with your master about this matter."

"Thank you Sect Master."

The suzerain said: "Now that you have reached the Nascent Soul Stage, it would be inappropriate to be a disciple again. In the future, you will take over the position of the Second Elder."

Gou Tian was stunned. Even if he was an elder, he should be under the fifth elder. Why did he suddenly parachute the second elder?

Knowing the doubts in his heart, the suzerain slowly sat down on the seat and looked in Goutian's direction. The light came in from the window and shone on the suzerain. Only then did Goutian see clearly that the suzerain's bright eyes actually There is no focal length.

The suzerain said: "I have been gifted and intelligent since I was a child, but it is a pity that my eyes are not very helpful. Fortunately, I have devoted myself to cultivation, and my cultivation has reached this stage, so I can support this sect. People will still suffer a bit when fighting against each other. I have to deal with the invasion of Tianjiu Temple this time, but this time I may never return, and the sect may lose its support."

Gou Tian looked at the suzerain quietly, waiting for him to continue.

The suzerain said: "Every position in the Lingxiao Sect has its own responsibilities. The first elder is responsible for defending and protecting the sect, the third elder is in charge of the sect's external affairs, the fourth elder is in charge of the disciples' cultivation, and the fifth elder is in charge of the sect's internal affairs. The second elder... the second elder He is only responsible for cultivating well, and will take over the position of suzerain in the future, and suzerain is the one with the highest cultivation level in the entire sect, representing the face and dignity of the Lingxiao sect, and also the pillar of the Lingxiao sect, if there is a catastrophe of annihilation of the sect, he must resist it with his body."

Gou Tian was slightly taken aback, frowned and said, "The suzerain thinks too highly of me."

The suzerain shook his head and said: "The person who succeeds the suzerain must have one and only one requirement, that is, the aptitude and understanding must be extremely high. You have already conceived a baby in your 200s. Compared with me, you have surpassed me by a few points, and you will soon More than me. I don't approve of you, but there is no suitable person in the sect. I originally chose the Great Elder, and the qualifications of the Great Elder are only slightly inferior to yours. Unfortunately, he has been trapped in the late Nascent Soul for hundreds of years. The heart is born with demonic obstacles, and the life expectancy is short, so it is difficult to improve the cultivation base."

Gou Tian was silent for a long time and said, "The suzerain is not afraid that my thoughts are wrong?"

"It's just a gamble, and there is no choice." The suzerain said, "Actually, being the suzerain is very good, just practice, and there will be no major events for a few hundred years. My master ascended smoothly. Don't worry about me being blind, so between me and the Great Elder, let me be the suzerain, but I didn't expect that something really happened to the sect after he ascended, it's not as good as heaven's fortune."

Perhaps the suzerain hadn't talked to anyone for a long time, and he held Goutian for a long time before letting Goutian go and let him prepare for the sect meeting in the future.

The Zongmen stared at Goutian from top to bottom, and it was impossible for the elder to make any further moves. Goutian went back to the cave he hadn't visited in a hundred years. After returning, the cave seemed to be the same as he had just left, but he He was no longer the isolated and helpless person who had just been reborn back then. Thinking about it now, the Great Elder was actually nothing.

After returning to his lair, Qiao Yang suddenly relaxed. He first ran to Goutian's bedroom, which he dared not step into before, and rolled around on the bed. When he saw Goutian following him, he shook his legs and said, "Master Zu , I thought you would reject the suzerain position."

"Being the suzerain can sit on a lot of cultivation resources, why should I refuse?" Gou Tian felt that Qiao Yang's brain circuit was difficult to understand. He ran back and forth from the northwest to the extreme west in bitterness, wasn't it because of the lack of cultivation resources?Now that an opportunity came to his door, he would refuse it because he was haunted by demons.

"It's been written like this in novels from ancient times to the present. You decline and decline and then decline, and the suzerain invites and invites and invites again. Only by visiting the thatched cottage three times can you highlight your status."

Gou Tian said: "After I decline, what if he doesn't invite anymore?"

"...It makes sense."

"Cultivators don't stick to those details." Gou Tian sat beside him.

Qiao Yang suddenly felt that he was the one who cherished face.

"Someone is coming." Gou Tian suddenly looked outside.

Qiao Yang hurriedly got off the bed, tidied up his clothes, he paused, and touched his face sadly, sure enough, he really cherished his face.

Not long after, a rush of footsteps came from far and near from outside.Just as Qiao Yang went to open the door, two figures rushed in one after the other.

"Master!"

"Uncle Gou!"

Qiao Yang was almost bumped into by the two of them, and when he took a closer look, it turned out that it was Gong Liangxiu and Liu Hanzhu who hadn't seen each other for a long time.

When Goutian saw them, a smile appeared on his face, "How are you doing in the sect?"

Gong Liangxiu's eyes were red and he said: "With the Four Elders here, we can get by."

It's passable, but it's not so good, Goutian felt a little guilty, he let down the sword emperor's Tuogu, but these guilts were fleeting, he said: "In the future, you will follow me, You live in the room next door, which was cleaned up by Qiao Yang before, and tomorrow I will see how you have practiced these years."

Gong Liangxiu's face flushed suddenly, and he couldn't say a word for a long time.

Liu Hanzhu also lowered his head and did not speak.

Goutian looked at Liu Hanzhu and said, "Gong Liangxiu was spoiled and spoiled since he was a child, and there are times when the Fourth Elder can't take care of him. You have taken care of him a bit these years. You have a good heart, and the progress of your cultivation is not bad now. You Do you want to worship me as a teacher?"

Liu Hanzhu was stunned for a long time, a little dazed, but as soon as he regained his senses, he immediately bowed to his teacher, and even the fast Gong Liangxiu couldn't react.

When Gong Liangxiu reacted, he didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and hurriedly said: "Master, wait a moment, I want to say that I want to become a Taoist couple with Hanzhu."

Gou Tian glanced at him lightly, "Brothers and sisters are not incest, why are you so anxious?"

Qiao Yang said in shock: "You actually caught up with Sister Hanzhu? What did I miss? Is there a replay? A memory kill is fine too!"

Gong Liangxiu said with some pride: "Wait for the uncles to give you wedding candies later, you should practice hard, little baby."

Qiao Yang took half a step back, crossed his chest and said with a smile, "Smile, I hope you will laugh more happily in the future."

Gong Liangxiu couldn't understand what he was talking about, but Liu Hanzhu's mind was clear and he immediately realized that he was afraid that Gong Liangxiu might say something wrong, so after saying goodbye to Goutian, he hurriedly dragged him out.

"Master! Why did you suddenly accept an apprentice again?" This time it was Liu Hanzhu who accepted him. Qiao Yang didn't have any objections, but he still felt it was sudden.

Gou Tian said: "The Fifth Elder's lifespan is not long, and someone will always be in charge of the sect's internal affairs in the future. I just cultivated it in advance." The suzerain did not specify who to hand over other positions, presumably it was for Gou Tian to choose the candidate himself. Chaotianzi is a courtier, and the world of Taoism is nothing more than this.

"...You are really a born suzerain." This look of worrying about the sect... seems to have been practiced for many years.

Goutian suddenly put away the smile on his face, "Ruyi, do you still need me to call you out?"
