"I dare to ask the Saint to clarify this matter."

After saying that, Xu Jinse knelt on her knees and kowtowed.

She was a personal maid, and it was not shameful for her to kowtow to her master.

However, the saint had never asked for this before. Although she was a maid in name, she actually treated her like a junior sister and was extremely friendly.

"You don't know, so how could I know?"

After saying this, Su Qianran sighed.

Su Qianran herself didn't understand the specific situation, so how could she give Xu Jinse an accurate answer?

I thought the Saint knew about it, but it seems unclear. Xu Jinse stood in the center of the hall, with a blank look in her eyes, a haggard face, and she didn't know what to do.

"Saint, can I...can I meet that senior again?"

Xu Jinse knew that this request was very presumptuous and rude. However, if she didn't understand this matter clearly, her heart would not be at peace and she would not be able to practice at all.

Over time, it may even become a knot in your heart. If you don't resolve it, your life will end here.

Su Qianran shook her head, indicating that she could not do so. In the eyes of outsiders, she was the high and mighty Saint of Xuanling, but in the eyes of the real top beings, she was nothing at all.

You want to meet a senior, and I want to too.

My lord's health is getting worse and worse. Can we meet again?

Thinking of this, a hint of worry appeared between Su Qianran's brows.

There was silence inside the ancient temple.

The two girls pursed their red lips and lowered their brows in deep thought.

What is the relationship between Chen Qingyuan and Zhang Moli?

This problem, like an invisible chain, was wrapped around the two girls, making them extremely troubled and uncomfortable.

......

Deep in the bamboo forest, there is sometimes a rustling sound caused by wind.

Chen Qingyuan looked old and in very poor spirit.

Judging from his condition, he has no more than ten years left to live in this world.

"Recently I heard a piece of news that concerns your Excellency's disciple."

Yan Ze sat next to him and poured two cups of tea.

"Oh?" Chen Qingyuan showed some interest. He half-opened his eyes, opened his cracked lips, and asked, "Tell me about it."

"Your eldest disciple came to Cangyuzhou several years ago and did something that caused quite a stir..."

Yan Ze's spiritual sense covered a nearby prosperous city, so he could easily detect the news and tell it slowly.

Chen Qingyuan's eldest disciple was named Zhu Wulang, who was once an ordinary person. The two had a deep bond and became master and disciple.

Flawless Taoist body, pure Taoist heart.

After years of practice, Zhu Wulang has long shed his immaturity and made a great name for himself.

He is the top talent of the new generation, and it is hard to find an opponent among his peers.

He recently appeared in Cangyuzhou because he had a feud with the people from Diming Pavilion and came here to settle it.

The Diming Pavilion has great influence in Cangyuzhou, with many powerful people and strong foundation, second only to the several major holy places in this world.

As for what kind of hatred was created, no one knows.

People only know that Zhu Wulang held a precious bow in his hand, blocked the gate of Diming Pavilion, and shot and killed 23 people in a row, including some masters in the Mahayana realm.

The top leaders of the Diming Pavilion were furious and ordered to capture him alive. If they could not capture him alive, they would kill him with the force of thunder.

Several months had passed since this incident, and only then did the world know Zhu Wulang's identity and background. He was actually from Qing Sect and was Chen Qingyuan's direct disciple.

When this news came out, the Lord of Di Ming Pavilion and other high-ranking officials were so frightened that their legs trembled and cold sweats broke out.

Later, Diming Pavilion directly withdrew the order to hunt down, and the ancestor personally led the team to Qingzong. No matter who was right or wrong, the most important thing was to apologize quickly.

The so-called sect's reputation is no longer important.

"Young and energetic."

Chen Qingyuan smiled calmly.

"He has some of your style."

Yan Ze's words were meant as a compliment as well as praise.

Chen Qingyuan slowly closed his eyes and smiled without saying anything.

Seeing Chen Qingyuan, whose vitality had mostly passed away and whose life span was not much left, Yan Ze's eyes flashed with sadness. Then, he hurried to prepare tonight's meal, carefully selecting the ingredients to ensure that they were delicious.

A few months passed and an uninvited guest came to the bamboo forest.

The person coming is Xu Jinse.

Today, she was wearing a light white brocade dress, and she came here boldly, feeling extremely nervous.

If the situation had developed normally as planned, Xu Jinse would have had a very good future. However, everything changed when he saw Zhang Moli.

At first she forced herself not to think too much, but as time went by, she became more and more irritated and uneasy, and she could not find peace.

If this continues, inner demons will inevitably grow.

After thinking it over and struggling for a long time, Xu Jinse decided to go to the bamboo forest again. This was done without the permission of the Saint, and was done on her own initiative.

However, for a small figure like Xu Jinse, every move cannot escape the eyes of those above him.

Su Qianran did not stop his action because she also wanted to know who this young man was.

Without solving this question, Xu Jinse cannot practice.

If you offend the senior who lives in seclusion here, the worst that can happen is that you pay with your life.

Unable to resolve the doubts, I feel anxious and life is worse than death.

"Xu Jinse wants to see you, Senior."

Xu Jinse came outside the barrier and knelt down to beg.

Xu Jinse knew very well in her mind that if a small person like her wanted to survive, she must first give up the so-called dignity and be able to bend and stretch in order to avoid many troubles.

It is no big deal and not shameful to kneel down and ask for an audience with a senior who even the Saint Maiden has to serve carefully.

"Your Majesty, do you want to see me or not?"

Yan Ze turned around and looked at the bamboo house in the courtyard.

Chen Qingyuan was silent for a while, then sighed softly: "Alas!"

Speaking of which, Xu Jinse is not an unforgivable person. He just wants to climb up the social ladder. There are many people in the world who are not like this.

Zhang Moli failed in his retreat and died, and Chen Qingyuan used his body to attain enlightenment.

The cause and effect had already been severed, but Wang Taohua insisted on watching the fun, leading to the current situation.

In fact, Chen Qingyuan doesn't need to pay any attention to him and just ignore him.

Now that I have taken over this body, there is no way I can escape.

It would be best to talk it out face to face and resolve the issue.

"Let her in!"

Chen Qingyuan made a decision.

"it is good."

Yan Ze responded, immediately lifted the barrier, and sent a message to call him in.

After getting permission, Xu Jinse slowly stood up.

With heavy steps, he walked into the depths of the bamboo forest.

This time, she no longer lowered her head, but mustered up her courage and looked at everything in front of her.

When I walked outside the yard, I could clearly see Chen Qingyuan sitting on a bamboo chair.

Although his face looks old, it is certain that it is exactly the same as Zhang Moli's.

After witnessing it again, Xu Jinse's heart still trembled and she couldn't believe it.

After a long time, he pretended to be calm and walked into the courtyard.

"Meet the two seniors."

Xu Jinse did not forget to salute, her voice trembling slightly.

"What do you want to see me for?"

Chen Qingyuan asked directly.
