Chapter 2913: Revisiting Old Ground
. 。The sun pierced through the thick clouds, casting the landscape in shadow. 。Under an ancient tree in the sands, a few sprigs of spirit herbs sway in the wind. 。A dark shadow darted swiftly under t...Lingxiao Palace, Qinglian Peak domain, even after thousands of years, Qinglian Peak domain hasn't changed much. It's still lush and green. Various spiritual birds flying between the mountains and peaks, many low-level cultivators riding on spiritual birds heading to different peaks to complete the tasks they received from the chores hall.
Between each mountain range, there are many guardian spirit beasts. From the foundation-building stage spirit beasts on the outer rim to the golden core stage spirit beasts in the core area, there is a wide variety.
Lu Xia Tian, in a simple blue robe, walked along the rugged mountain path, just like an ordinary disciple. He had journeyed all the way from Wangyue Xiancheng, passing by the streets where he had first met Luo Qing when she was young. Wangyue Xiancheng had endured several battles and reconstructions over the years. When Lu Xia Tian returned, he could barely find any traces of what it was like during his time with Luo Qing.
It was rather at this time that upon returning to the Lingxiao Palace, retracing his steps through familiar lands, he found that not much had changed. Passing by the Miscellaneous Tasks Hall and seeing the Qi Refining cultivators coming and going, Lu Xiaoteng inexplicably felt a sense of intimacy.
Standing on the small hill where I first cultivated, there were no other cultivators here. It had been sealed off as a forbidden zone by the palace gates. It turned out that outside Jian Kan's cave dwelling, the vegetation was lush and well-kept.
From the entrance of the cave dwelling, looking at other places in Lingxiao Palace, a relatively ordinary perspective. As time passes and years go by, there is also a different kind of scenery among the mountains. Around this cave dwelling, whether it is birds or palace gate cultivators, they will all land and avoid the area around the cave dwelling.
At this moment, a male and female cultivator duo arrived after ascending the steps. They happened to see a young cultivator pressing his hand on an ordinary-looking stone that didn't seem particularly remarkable.
“Who are you, disciple of which peak, who dares to disrespect the ancestors and enter the forbidden grounds at will!” The tall female cultivator raised her beautiful eyebrows, staring warily at Lu Xiaodao.
"I wonder which peak's disciple you are, have you obtained the Palace Decree before entering this place" The young man appeared much calmer, bowing respectfully to Lu Xia Tian. His attitude was neither servile nor arrogant, though his intention seemed no different from the tall and beautiful woman.
"As for the two of you, you should first look at my decree. It's not right to disregard seniority and come after others." Lu Xia Tian smiled upon hearing this.
“We are here to clean the ancestral home of our master, as instructed by him. We are clearing the weeds according to his decree. Which uncle’s order are you following Whenever someone comes to tidy up the ancestral home, they always come in pairs. You are alone here. What is your intention” The tall woman raised her eyebrows and asked sharply.
"Besides, there's no rule saying that taking care of the ancestral home has to be done by two people." Lu Xiaoteng shook his head.
"This is the jade token bestowed upon us by our master, please show your own token, brother." The composed young man took out an ink-jade token, on which were inscribed several ancient characters of Lingxi Shangren.
"Come on, show me what you've got!" the tall woman said, staring intently at Lu Xiaodao.
“I have one like this too,” Lu Xia Tian laughed, reaching into his sleeve. He pulled out a piece of jade inscribed with the name “Qinghe Zhenren.”
"Qing Yu's disciple No, how could Qing Yu and my master both send people to clean the ancestral home of the master" The tall woman looked confused.
"Theoretically, this situation shouldn't occur. Since this fellow cultivator is a disciple of Lingxiao Palace, why don't we, as his senior and junior sisters, accompany him to verify it" The young cultivator was polite in his demeanor, but his attitude was extremely clear.
"Alright then, let's go together." Lu Xia Tian nodded and walked down the mountain with the two siblings.
This pair of male and female monks didn't expect Lu Xiaoteng to agree so easily. They were surprised by his cooperation. Could it be that he was really okay No, cleaning the ancestral home of the master is a regular task, with notice given more than a month in advance, it's impossible for this situation to occur.
This young couple had been wary of Lu Xia Tian along the way, but they didn't pay too much attention. After all, this was still Lingxiao Palace, and even though most of Lingxiao Palace's cultivators were inside the Lingxu Secret Realm and hadn't returned in time, separating the two groups of cultivators, there was still a powerful cultivator stationed here, plus other Yuan Ying cultivators from the palace gate, and the palace's restrictions. Who would dare to trespass into Lingxiao Palace alone
"This fellow…" The young man was about to speak when he felt something was amiss. Lu Xiaitian, who had been walking beside him the whole time, suddenly began to fade away.
"Not good!" The two young cultivators who were only at the Qi Refining stage discovered that the silver-haired cultivator following them was just an illusion. They had been completely oblivious throughout their journey, and their hearts pounded with fear as they realized the other party's cultivation level far surpassed theirs.
Two people immediately sounded the alarm, and in an instant, numerous beams of spiritual light shot out from different mountain ranges within Lingxiao Palace.
Lu Xia Tian shook his head. If he didn't want people to see him, even if he stood before them, the cultivators of Lingxiao Palace would be like the blue-robed scholar and his companions before - empty space where he stood.
I just appeared, and I felt that this couple resembled Su Qing and Luo Qian from the past. I didn't deliberately avoid them. However, that young male cultivator was more composed and restrained than Luo Qian.
As for the so-called jade pendant displayed by Lu Xia Tian, it was naturally an illusion. Every move of the Lingxiao Palace could be heard by Lu Xia Tian. Hearing the names of several Jindan cultivators and then conjuring them into jade pendants with illusions was naturally effortless.
After being reminded by the young male and female cultivators, a long-bearded, round-faced elder first arrived on the wind, landing in front of the two. After some inquiries, he went straight to where Lu Xiaoteng had appeared, but found nothing.
This is a line break tag.
Two more Jindan cultivators arrived one after another, naturally they also gained nothing. One of them was a tall and thin old man with an unusually stern expression. He believed that the young man and woman were making things up out of thin air and causing trouble within the palace gates. He immediately rebuked the young couple a few times.
This lanky old man was already at the ninth level of the Golden Core, his aura complete and with a hint of a breakthrough. Among several other Golden Core cultivators, he held immense prestige. Though the other Golden Core cultivators who followed tried to persuade him, they failed to completely quell his anger.
It was only when the wizened old man scolded that the white clouds floating in the air gathered and roared. This commotion startled several people who, upon reacting, realized that the white clouds had formed a giant human face.
"Who is the esteemed expert visiting Lingxiao Palace, please show yourself!" The gaunt old man trembled, a giant human face formed from white clouds appeared in the void. Such means were beyond his comprehension.
"Appearing here is fine, but those two youngsters didn't lie just now. It was just a joke I played with them on a whim. Don't take it seriously." The giant face formed from white clouds in the void spoke.
"I wonder how I should address you" At this time, on the back mountain of Lingxiao Palace, a middle-aged man in fine clothes came flying in, closely followed by a woman in golden armor.
“Greetings, Palace Master! Greetings, Elder Xiao!” Upon their appearance, the Lingxiao Palace cultivators all bowed in unison.
