Even Le'an and Yunchang said they didn't know each other.
Having said that, the two young disciples didn't know much and had nothing to ask. Chen Qiao said, "I want to go up the mountain. Should you follow me, or stay at the foot of the mountain first?"
The two looked at each other and Yun Chang said, "Uncle Chen, let's go up the mountain with you to avoid you from suffering a loss!"
Le'an had no time to cover Yun Chang's mouth, so he had to keep silent, which was the words of his junior brother.
Chen Qiao smiled. Although Yun Chang spoke faster, he was better because he was straightforward and Le An was slightly afraid of things, but he was not bad either. Otherwise, he should have said he would refuse.
"Forget it, you finally got your free time to go down the mountain to play, so stay at the foot of the mountain to have fun. It's not too late to go back in two days."
Le'an saw that Chen Qiao would definitely not be able to go up the mountain this time. Maybe he wanted to regain the position of the head sect, which would inevitably require the support of the elders. He thought that Chen Qiao would pull them up the mountain to let his master stand in the side, but Chen Qiao did not mention it either. It was their villain's heart that saved the gentleman's ambition.
"Now that the position of the head sect has not been settled, Xuandu Mountain will not be able to get peace for a day. Uncle Chen, you are the head sect designated by Zhenren Qi himself." Chen Qiao was so happy, Le An was a little embarrassed and hurriedly said something to express his position.
The implication is that although they will not get involved, if they must support one, they will definitely choose Chen Qiao.
His carelessness was really not enough in front of Shen Qiao, but being petty with a young man was obviously not Chen Qiao's style.
"Thank you." He patted Lean on the shoulder, "Don't make trouble naughty at the foot of the mountain, go back early."
The tone was ordinary, as if it was a daily reminder. Those who didn't know thought that Chen Qiao was just going up the mountain to go out for a walk.
The two young Taoists looked at the back of Mei on the edge of Chen Qiao and were stunned for a while. Yun Chang suddenly said, "Senior Brother, we should have gone up the mountain with Uncle Chen just now! Last time, we went inside and outside the master's words, we blamed ourselves for not standing up for Uncle Chen that day. If he saw us shirking responsibility, he would probably not be happy."
Le'an: "Elder Xun wants to be the head of the country now, I'm afraid he won't give way to Uncle Chen easily. How can you know what the final outcome of Uncle Chen's trip to the mountain this time? If we follow us and are misunderstood by someone, wouldn't it be implicated by Master Chen's party?"
Yun Chang was dejected: "Hey, I always feel that we are a little unkind."
Le'an couldn't bear to see his junior brother disappointed: "Why do we secretly follow behind?"
Yun Chang: "It's good too!"
However, Chen Qiao and the Bianliang Mei went up the mountain. When the disciples on duty saw him, they all showed a unique reaction like Le'an Yunchang - as if they saw a ghost in broad daylight. They were speechless and their faces were frightened. Most of them could only watch Chen Qiao and the others climbed the mountain, not daring to come forward to stop him, but there were still a small number of people blocking Chen Qiao's way and said unceremoniously: "How dare you break into the mountain by abandoning Xuandu Mountain?"
Chen Qiao recognized him, and this person seemed to be a registered disciple of elder Xunzhi: "Lou Liang, why are you still guarding the mountain here after a few years?"
What does this sentence mean? It is like a normal greeting, but it hits the other party's weakness with one word. Lou Liang's face immediately turned red, not knowing whether it was shame or annoyance: "You, you... Chen Qiao, you rude madman, today, Xuandu Mountain, where can you have your foothold!"
Chen Qiao smiled slightly: "You are right. I am a little abrupt when I go up the mountain like this. I have to have a guide. I think you are quite suitable."
After saying that, he reached out to put his hand on Lou Liang's shoulder.
Lou Liang clearly saw that the other party was not fast and had no variety of moves to speak of, but he was controlled without time to react. He felt a severe pain coming from his shoulders, and he couldn't break free at all, and he changed color for a moment.
Since Xuandu Mountain reopened the mountain gate, the news has been less closed and lagging as before. Chen Qiao's behavior outside has been heard from time to time and it has been heard by the disciples. But after all, it is better to meet than to be famous. Even if they heard the rumors that Chen Qiao is so powerful a hundred times, they would not be as good as seeing it with their own eyes.
Lou Liang was not a fool either. He immediately realized that he was delivering it to the door for a raft, so he quickly surrendered: "Uncle Shen is willing to spare his orders, and his disciples are also ordered to be on duty here. No one is allowed to go up the mountain. It is definitely not disrespectful to Uncle Master!"
Chen Qiao's eyebrows moved: "No one is allowed to go up the mountain? But what happened on the mountain?"
Lou Liang knew everything and dared not hide it at all: "Yes, the elders are holding a meeting on the mountain to discuss the candidates for the successor."
Chen Qiao: "All the elders are here?"
Lou Liang: "Only Elder Liu is in seclusion, so he is absent."
The elder Liu he mentioned was Le'an Yunchang's master.
It’s no wonder that his disciple is like this with such a fearful master. Although Bian Yanmei watched coldly and said nothing, she said disdainfully.
What Chen Qiao thought was: the consequences of closing the mountain gates of Xuandu Mountain for generations have finally surfaced one by one, and the long-term closure has also closed people's hearts. There are those who are ambitious as Yu Ai, and naturally, there are also Elder Liu who is so brave to be closed and raised, thinking that it is better to have less than more things and protect himself.
"That's right, I should go up and listen."
Lou Liang hurriedly said, "I will lead the way for Uncle Master!"
In fact, even if he didn't want to take it, he couldn't help it. Even though he had a snow-white and slender hand, he held his shoulders firmly like a thorn. Lou Liang felt very distressed, but he didn't dare to show it. He accelerated his pace, and while he was very conscious of introducing the situation on the mountain to Chen Qiao.
When others saw Lou Liang being defeated, they dared not come forward and blocked him. They gave way to both sides of the road, so Chen Qiao and the other two went up.
This was not entirely shocked by Chen Qiao's martial arts. When Chen Qiao was still in charge of the sect, he was very good at all to his disciples. He clearly rewarded and punished the public and did not show off his airs in private. Many disciples admired him very much. Until after the battle at Banbufeng, the elders of the Yu'ai Joint Sect took power, which caught everyone off guard. Although many disciples did not dare to be inferior, they inevitably had their own thoughts in their hearts. Now that they saw Chen Qiao coming back, many people even showed joy in their eyes.
Lou Liang took these eyes into his eyes, and had a measure in his heart. He whispered to Chen Qiao: "Uncle Chen, I know that you must seek justice when you come back this time. My master has always been loyal to Xuandu Mountain. He only opposed it because he was dissatisfied with Elder Tan's mediocre ability and had to act as the head sect. The disciple dared to ask you to have a lot of people, so he should be proud of him. Don't bother with him, okay?"
Although this person is reckless, he still has a little conscience. Chen Qiao smiled slightly: "What if I have to worry about it?"
Lou Liang was speechless. He was still a registered disciple for so many years. In addition to his average qualifications, his master Xun Yi was also a person who judged people by his appearance and was kept away from people with bad appearance. Lou Liang was born average, so he naturally had less luck. However, because he was already a registered disciple of Xun Yi and could not join other elders, Lou Liang was so depressed that he thought that after saying this, he could be considered to be full of kindness and righteousness. What Mr. Chen wanted was not something he could control.
With Lou Liang leading the way, the two of Chenbian were no longer obstructed. Some of them were disciples who were taken in after the battle of Banbufeng. They did not recognize Chen Qiao. When they saw Lou Liang, they even said hello: "Senior Brother Lou, don't you have an order from the superiors? Are you sure that the idle people can wait to go up the mountain?"
Lou Liang looked solemn: "Who said this is a messy person? This is what I sent Uncle Chen to come back to attend the meeting!"
Others were stunned by him and let go without asking much questions, so that Chen Qiao would not take action again.
From this point of view, Lou Liang is quite useful.
Seeing Lou Liang and the others leaving, the disciple who had just blocked the road asked his companion in confusion: "It seems that there is no uncle named Chen in our sect?"
The companions racked their brains and a flash of inspiration: "The surname Chen... Could it be that person, Chen Qiao?"
The two of them suddenly realized and then looked at each other and changed their color, but by this time, the other party had already walked away and there was no time to stop him.
Chen Qiao and Lou Liang came to the gate of Sanqing Hall not far from where they heard a silence from inside: "Tan Yuanchun! You were temporarily appointed as the head sect because after Master Yu disappeared, the sect's civil affairs had to be managed by someone. We had no objection, but the head sect and the head sect are different after all. In terms of martial arts, you are not the best in Xuandu Mountain and you can't rank any more famous in the world. Why should you take this position as the head sect!"
Lou Liang showed embarrassment because the voice was from his master Liu Yue.
Because the content of today's discussion is very important, and everyone here is the elders of Xuandu Mountain, who realize that their martial arts are good, so they did not let their disciples guard outside the door. Therefore, Chen Qiao and the other two walked closer, and no one noticed it for the time being.
In contrast, the person who answered him had a much calmer tone and was not angry, and he didn't seem to be angry: "Elder Liu, I have something to say. Are you discussing this? Although I am not talented and have the least qualifications among all the elders, I understand that the reason why everyone recommends me is not because I have the highest martial arts skills, but because I have been managing common affairs all year round and are more familiar with it. After all, it doesn't matter who is the head of this. The important thing is that you can do something for the Zi Mansion of Xuandu. Are you right?"
Liu Yue sneered: "According to what you said, it is not important to be a good martial arts master. As long as you are familiar with common affairs, you can do it? Isn't it more appropriate for my registered disciple Lou Liang to deal with civil affairs every day?"
After he said this, not only did Lou Liang feel ashamed outside, but even Tan Yuanchun outside the door was slightly unhappy.
Liu Yue: "Junior Brother Tan, you still have to be a little self-aware. Why did Zhenren Qi abandon you, a legitimate disciple, and have a lot of eyes on Master Chen? Isn't it because your qualifications are mediocre? If you have to choose you, then I would rather invite Master Chen back. I heard that Master Chen has made great martial arts skills and is no longer the same as before. He once served as Master Chen, so he is more suitable than you?"
Hearing this, Chen Qiao no longer remained silent and walked in: "Thank you, Elder Liu for your love."
No one expected that Chen Qiao would appear silently outside, and walked in silently, and a strange tranquility appeared in the hall.
After a while, Tan Yuanchun stood up to greet him, with a look of surprise on his face: "Second junior brother, when will you come back!"
Chen Qiao: "I just went up the mountain and heard that you are discussing the affairs of the head of the school, so I came over and didn't bother you?"
Everyone showed a look of embarrassment to the point of view.
After Chen Qiao fell from the cliff, Yu Ai stole the position of the head sect. It was unreasonable to discuss it in detail. However, at that time, he joined forces with the elders and took the ranks with great strength, and no one could say anything. Of course, everyone must have their own thoughts at that time, but in fact, Chen Qiao was still from the Zi Mansion of Xuandu. Yu Ai is now missing. When Chen Qiao comes back, no one can compete with him for the position of the head sect.
Not to mention anything else, Qi Fengge's mountains and rivers are still carrying the sword of sadness on others' backs!
Liu Yue first reacted and said in front of others: "Since Junior Brother Chen is back, it's good that Yu Ai is now missing, and there are no leaders in Xuandu Mountain. He is hoping that someone can take the lead. Once you come back, we will have the backbone!"
Tan Yuanchun also smiled and said, "Yes, A Qiao, you'll be fine when you come back, but you have to take a break before talking?"
When he met his concerned eyes, Chen Qiao declined: "Thank you, Senior Brother, we have already rested at the foot of the mountain. I heard something happened to Yu Ai?"
Tan Yuanchun: "Yes, Junior Brother Yu suddenly disappeared a few days ago. He was fine the night before, but he suddenly disappeared when he got up the next day. We searched all over Xuandu Mountain but couldn't see him."
His words stopped, his eyes moved to the edge of Mei behind Chen Qiao, and he said in confusion: "Who is this?"
