"What relationship? I've only met Qian Lingtian twice and haven't said much to him. Qian Lingwu and I are friends. Elder Mo, your words are meaningless. You're making it sound like I've betrayed someone." Qin Chu was displeased after hearing Mo Daozi's words. He wasn't foolish and naturally knew what Mo Daozi meant.
"What's wrong with asking you? I'm just worried you'll suffer losses, why are you getting so worked up!" Mo Daozi glared at Qin Chu.
Qin Chu found a seat and sat down. After sitting, he turned his head to look outside the pavilion, ignoring Mo Daozi and Ling Yunzi.
Ling Yunzi smiled. In the entire Qingyun Sect, Qin Chu was the only one who could be so impolite to Mo Daozi and throw tantrums at will.
"Why are you sulking? Tell me what you're thinking, boy." Mo Daozi looked at Qin Chu and said.
"Everyone needs to consider the current situation of the Qingyun Sect. Whether we clash head-on with the Three Great Sects or fight to the death with the Qian Dynasty, there won't be a good outcome. Therefore, I hope the Qingyun Sect can make an appropriate decision, and I'm just offering a suggestion," Qin Chu said.
Mo Daozi nodded, "Our Qingyun Sect only wants to pass down our Legacy peacefully and isn't interested in the dominion of this region. However, we also don't want to see external forces stirring up trouble. Furthermore, if the Three Great Sects have deteriorated, then they need to be dealt with. On this point, our attitude is the same as the Qian Dynasty. Later, we will have the Sect Master visit the Great Qian Imperial Capital to communicate with Qian Lingtian."
After hearing Mo Daozi's words, Qin Chu nodded in satisfaction, as this decision was the most appropriate.
With the serious matters concluded, Qin Chu looked at Mo Daozi, "When can my matter be settled?"
"What matter? Someone had a bad temper just now, and this Venerable One can't recall some things," Mo Daozi said, rubbing his forehead.
"Sigh! I originally planned to collect some Heavenly Incense Grass from Heavenly Incense Valley when I had time, but now I think I'll just forget about it." Qin Chu also patted his forehead, just like Mo Daozi.
Mo Daozi knew how to play dirty, and so did Qin Chu!
As soon as Qin Chu spoke, Mo Daozi's face immediately turned blue. Damn it, he just wanted Qin Chu to be more obedient, but Qin Chu directly issued a counter-threat. Should he accept it or not? He had to accept it.
"Two months, wait another two months!" Mo Daozi looked at Qin Chu and said.
"Are there still variables? For example, your poor memory or something," Qin Chu asked, looking at Mo Daozi.
"Nonsense! When have the things this Venerable One said not counted?" Seeing the suspicion and even contempt in Qin Chu's eyes, Mo Daozi was very displeased, but what could he do? Currently, Heavenly Incense Valley was a Forbidden Land for the Four Great Sects, but for Qin Chu, it was like his backyard.
Qin Chu patted his backside and left, walking very nonchalantly.
"This shameless fellow." Mo Daozi was annoyed watching Qin Chu's swaggering walk.
"Senior Brother, he has already proven himself, solving many problems, and can even stand on his own," Ling Yunzi said. He now highly approved of Qin Chu.
"He indeed has a great overall perspective. When he's a bit older, we'll officially confirm his status as the Qing King Commander!" Mo Daozi said.
Ling Yunzi nodded. The high-ranking members of the Qingyun Sect had already discussed this matter. Luo Zhen and Lu Yuan both strongly agreed. Their opinion was that Qin Chu was still young and not stable enough in character, needing more growth and tempering. However, Qin Chu's analysis of the situation and his arrangements upon his return showed a great overall perspective.
After Qin Chu left Mo Daozi's pavilion, he went to the Scripture Pavilion. He wanted to first look at the ancient texts. His Heavenly Origin Incomplete Manual could only be Cultivated to the Fourth Rank, and there was no further path. He planned to first check the Scripture Pavilion to see if there were any suitable ancient texts. If there were, he would switch his Cultivation Technique; if not, he would research it himself, continuing to Cultivate according to the previous Heavenly Origin Incomplete Manual's method.
After searching for over an hour and reading many Cultivation Technique ancient texts, Qin Chu was not very satisfied.
Origin Qi Cultivation Techniques generally have two functions: one is to gather energy to increase the quantity of Origin Qi, and the other is for the operation and use of Origin Qi energy. The Heavenly Origin Incomplete Manual was superior in both these aspects.
Qin Chu, having not found a satisfactory ancient text, emerged from the Scripture Pavilion.
"What's wrong? Why the disappointed look?" Ling Yunzi, who had returned to the Scripture Pavilion from Mo Daozi's pavilion to continue guarding it, asked Qin Chu.
"It's about the Cultivation Technique, Elder Ling. You know that I Cultivated the Heavenly Origin Incomplete Manual, but it's an Incomplete Manual and can only be Cultivated to the Fourth Rank. Now, I'm facing a choice: either switch Cultivation Techniques or rely on myself to deduce the continuation of the Heavenly Origin Incomplete Manual," Qin Chu said.
Hearing Qin Chu's words, Ling Yunzi nodded. He remembered some things; Qin Chu had spent thirty thousand points to exchange for a Heavenly Origin Incomplete Manual that he wasn't very satisfied with.
Seeing Ling Yunzi remain silent, Qin Chu left the Scripture Pavilion. He needed to think carefully. The choice of an Origin Qi Cultivation Technique was very important, and he had to consider it thoroughly.
Leaving the Main Peak Scripture Pavilion, Qin Chu returned to the Utility Disciple Courtyard on Green Bamboo Peak.
Upon seeing Qin Chu return, all the Utility Disciple in the Green Bamboo Peak Utility Disciple Courtyard became excited. With Qin Chu gone, the Utility Disciple Courtyard had been too quiet, as if something was missing.
Looking at the Utility Disciple in the Utility Disciple Courtyard, Qin Chu's eyes were filled with joy, because the Utility Disciple had indeed undergone great changes. Bai Yu, Lin Zheng, and the others who had been demoted from Outer Sect Disciple to the Utility Disciple Courtyard were all at the Third Rank of Cultivation. Bai Yu had even reached the Late Stage of the Third Rank, which was the standard for Inner Sect Disciple; Er Pang had also reached the Peak of the Second Rank, and many other Utility Disciple were at the Gathering Origin Realm of Cultivation, all meeting the standard for Outer Sect Disciple. It could be said that the Utility Disciple Courtyard had undergone a great transformation.
"Boss, where have you been all this time?" Er Pang, somewhat excited, asked Qin Chu.
"Just went for a walk. Everyone, keep busy!" Qin Chu waved his hand.
After chatting with Bai Yu, Er Pang, Lin Zheng, and others for a few moments, Qin Chu returned to the Broken Cliff.
The wooden house on the Broken Cliff was still there, and it had been repaired. Qin Chu knew that even when he wasn't around, Er Pang and the others hadn't allowed the wooden house to fall into disrepair.
He reached out and touched it, finding no dust on the wooden stump, so Qin Chu sat down. His mind was filled with many things now. There were still two months, and after two months, he might find clues about his background. Two months later was also the time for him to participate in the Four Great Sects' Grand Assembly, but what after that? Then he would have to search for his family.
Qin Chu felt that when he had time, he should go back to the old house in the mountains to see if the old man had returned. He missed the old man a little. The old man had raised him for fourteen years, and they were like grandfather and grandson.
After pondering for a while with his head down, Qin Chu looked up, "Damn it, I was tricked."
Qin Chu remembered something: when the old man left, he didn't walk, but flew. What Realm was that? To fly through the air, one needed at least a Sixth Rank King Realm of Cultivation.
