Seeking Immortality

After separating from Ning Lingzi, Deng Tianai and others, Xu Qingfan flew towards the general's mansion with Qiu Xuan. In fact, Ning Lingzi had promised Qiu Xuan that he would help him introduce the masters of "Ronghua Mountain", so Qiu Xuan no longer needed to be with Xu Qingfan, but there was another disciple that Xu Qingfan wanted to accept at the general's mansion, but Qiu Xuan was still needed to act as a middleman.

Qiu Xuan also had to go to the general's mansion to deal with some aftermath and return the military flag that had driven away the "Heavenly Evil Leaf" to Bai Lianye, so after Deng Tianai left first, Qiu Xuan made an agreement with Ning Lingzi, and then rushed to the general's mansion with Xu Qingfan.

This time, Deng Tianai suddenly appeared, obviously to see Qiu Xuan. The two talked for a long time, but it was unknown what they said. Just looking at their expressions after the conversation, Xu Qingfan guessed that the two had reached some kind of agreement. As for the specific content of the agreement, Qiu Xuan did not mention it, and Xu Qingfan was not interested in asking.

However, despite this, Xu Qingfan could still guess a little bit, that is, Deng Tianai could stop chasing Qiu Xuan, and even let Qiu Xuan return to the "*men", but Qiu Xuan had to do something for him, or help Deng Tianai get rid of certain people, or help Deng Tianai get something.

In the face of interests, enemies can become friends, and friends can become enemies again, so the world does not distinguish between enemies and friends. If the interests are the same, the demon cultivators and the immortal cultivators can also be brothers and drink happily. Xu Qingfan knows all this, and if necessary, he will do so one day.

But this does not mean that Xu Qingfan agrees with Qiu Xuan's approach.

For example, if necessary, although Xu Qingfan and Liu Ziqing are enemies, he will choose to cooperate with Liu Ziqing. However, unless it is absolutely necessary, Xu Qingfan will never cooperate with Nangong Qingshan or Zhang Xusheng. Because the reason why Xu Qingfan and Liu Ziqing are enemies. Just because of their different interests, the hatred between Xu Qingfan and Nangong Qingshan or Zhang Xusheng was forged by blood and was completely different in nature.

For Qiu Xuan, Deng Tianai was undoubtedly his nemesis.

He had been hunted down for more than ten years, and he was displaced and miserable. It was true that he should become realistic when being hunted down, but Xu Qingfan felt that even if he became realistic, he should still have the most basic persistence.

Qiu Xuan's choice, in addition to showing that he became realistic, also showed that he had gradually become unscrupulous in some aspects.

Although it cannot be said to be right or wrong, Xu Qingfan did lose the opportunity to have a deep friendship with Qiu Xuan from that moment on. Because Xu Qingfan didn't know that if he continued to have a deep friendship, one day in the future, Qiu Xuan, who became more realistic, would sell himself out for his greater interests?

Xu Qingfan also didn't know whether he had thought about Jiu Ze Zhenren who was captured in order to cover his escape when Qiu Xuan compromised with Deng Tianai?

Because of this, although Xu Qingfan and Qiu Xuan talked and laughed as usual along the way, there was a little more indifference in his eyes, and Qiu Xuan obviously also keenly observed this, and gradually spoke less.

No words along the way.

Half a day later, Xu Qingfan and Qiu Xuan returned to Fencheng. He flew directly to the front of the general's mansion.

Cultivating immortals is extremely mysterious in the hearts of mortals, just like the immortals in legends, but in the past two days, there have been many immortal cultivators coming and going in the general's mansion. The scene of Xu Qingfan and more than ten people flying away in the clouds before. It attracted the attention of thousands of people, so when they saw Xu Qingfan and Qiu Xuan coming back at this time, the guards in front of the general's mansion were just surprised, and respectfully led the two into the mansion, and quickly reported the news of Xu Qingfan and Qiu Xuan's return to Bai Lianye and others.

Not long after Xu Qingfan and Qiu Xuan sat down in the hall of the general's mansion, Bai Lianye arrived with Zhang Long and Liu Junshi. Seeing that Xu Qingfan and Qiu Xuan were safe and sound, he seemed to be relieved. Xu Qingfan and the others had looked solemn when they left before, and there was no news for another month. This made Bai Lianye and the others have some bad guesses.

"Sir, Master Xu, you two are finally back."

Bai Lianye walked up to the two of them, bowed first, and then said.

Qiu Xuan smiled slightly, then took out the military flag from his sleeve and handed it to Bai Lianye with both hands. He smiled and said, "General, are you worried about this military flag? It has been returned intact. The evil magic hidden inside has also been expelled. The general can use it with confidence from now on. Bai Lianye's face showed a little embarrassment. Although this military flag is not a treasure, as the inheritance of their Bai family, it has indeed made Bai Lianye a little worried these days, but he did not pretend. In front of Qiu Xuan and Xu Qingfan, he unfolded the military flag and carefully examined it. After a while, he put it away and handed it to Liu Junshi next to him, and then bowed deeply to Qiu Xuan and Deng Tianai again, saying, "I'm sorry to make you laugh."

Qiu Xuan said, "It's okay. The general is a man of true character, how could we laugh at him? "

Speaking of this, Qiu Xuan glanced at Xu Qingfan who was standing next to him with a calm face, and asked with a smile: "The two of us came back this time, one is to return the general's military flag, and the second is the matter of Bai Yu. Fellow Daoist Xu has a high level of cultivation and is from a famous family. It is rare that I persuaded him to accept Bai Yu as a disciple. It is a great opportunity for both the Bai family and Bai Yu. I see that the general had already made up his mind before Ning Lingzi and other Daoists came. Has his idea changed now? "

Bai Lianye was about to lead the topic to this aspect at this time. When he heard Qiu Xuan talking about it directly, he hurriedly replied: "Of course there is no change. It is a blessing for Bai Yu to be able to worship under the tutelage of Xu Xianchang. "

With that said, Bai Lianye suddenly turned to Xu Qingfan, bowed to Xu Qingfan, and said respectfully: "If Xu Xianchang is willing, I will give the dog to Xu Xianchang."

On the other side, Zhang Long's eyes flickered after hearing Bai Lianye's words, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

Xu Qingfan said slowly: "It's better to meet Bai Yu first."

After finishing speaking, Xu Qingfan couldn't help coughing twice more. After this battle, Xu Qingfan's coughing problem became more serious.

Although Liu Huaxiang's third last wish was for Xu Qingfan to accept the descendants of the Bai family as his disciples, it did not explicitly say that Xu Qingfan had to accept the descendants of the Bai family as his disciples. It only asked Xu Qingfan to introduce the descendants of the Bai family to Jiuhua Mountain. Should he accept Bai Yu as his disciple? Disciple, Xu Qingfan did not want to make a hasty decision.

Hearing what Xu Qingfan said, Bai Lianye immediately asked someone to bring Bai Yu to the hall, while Xu Qingfan and Qiu Xuan waited quietly in the hall. After a while. When Bai Lianye saw that Bai Yu hadn't arrived yet, he confessed to Xu Qingfan and Qiu Xuan, and then went to find them himself.

Watching Bai Lianye leave the hall, Xu Qingfan turned to look at Zhang Long's thoughtful expression, and suddenly asked: "Zhang Long, the two of us are old acquaintances in the world of immortality. We value fate most, I think. You are thoughtful but hesitant, but what do you want to tell me?"

Hearing Xu Qingfan's words, Zhang Long was stunned for a moment, then showed a decisive expression on his face, and suddenly bowed to Xu Qingfan, which shocked Xu Qingfan and Qiu Xuan.

"I know my request is a bit too much, but can my benefactor accept my granddaughter Zhang Ningmei as a disciple? If my benefactor agrees, I will build a shrine for my benefactor. I will worship him every day. But I still ask my benefactor to do it." promise."

Hearing Zhang Long's words, Xu Qingfan couldn't help but frowned. To be honest, Xu Qingfan's character didn't like liveliness. The reason why he proposed to accept Bai Yu as his disciple was because of Liu Huaxiang's last wish, and if we meet later back. If Xu Qingfan felt that his personality was not compatible, he was prepared to let Bai Yu switch to other elders in Jiuhua Mountain after accepting him as his disciple.

What's more, Xu Qingfan has been in seclusion all year round, but he doesn't have time to teach too many disciples.

But just when Xu Qingfan was about to decline. But I heard Zhang Long say again: "My benefactor did not know that the granddaughter in Xiadi has been frail and sick since she was a child. She has been unable to be cured by many miracle doctors. Two miracle doctors even said that my granddaughter may not live to be twenty years old. Even if she is Mr. Qiu, you just tried to suppress my granddaughter's illness. Although Mr. Qiu said that letting my granddaughter practice immortality might help, Mr. Qiu never accepted a disciple, so I can only ask my benefactor."

Hear Zhang Long's words. Xu Qingfan turned to look at Qiu Xuan in confusion, but heard Qiu Xuan's message: "The matter of Zhang Long's granddaughter Zhang Ningmei is a bit complicated, but I can't explain it at the moment. It would be better for Xu Daoyou to see it with his own eyes."

Hearing what Qiu Xuan said, Xu Qingfan became slightly interested and said to Zhang Long: "Well, you'd better bring your granddaughter here first. Let me see and then talk. Maybe I can do something ”

I heard that Xu Qingfan did not directly agree to accept Zhang Ningmei as his disciple. Zhang Long was slightly frustrated, but he still got up from the ground. He quickly walked out to find his granddaughter.

Watching Zhang Long leave, Qiu Xuan seemed to have thought of something, and suddenly smiled and said to Xu Qingfan: "Fellow Daoist Xu, you might have some trouble recruiting a disciple this time."

Xu Qingfan was slightly stunned and asked, "How do you say this?"

Qiu Xuan explained: "Bai Yu and Zhang Ningmei grew up together, but they are childhood sweethearts. Especially Zhang Ningmei, who has been frail and sick since childhood, but Bai Yu still takes care of her every day and spends more time in Zhang Ningmei's room every day than Zhang Long. Ever since he found out that cultivating immortals might be able to cure Zhang Ningmei's illness, that kid has been pestering me every day to become his disciple, presumably to pass on the method of cultivating immortals to Zhang Ningmei. If you want to take that Bai Yu as your disciple, take him away. If the General Mansion asks him to separate from Zhang Ningmei, I'm afraid Bai Yu will be unwilling to do so. "

Hearing what Qiu Xuan said, Xu Qingfan also frowned slightly, but he did not expect that the matter of accepting a disciple would be so twists and turns, but deep down he also appreciated Bai Yu's emphasis on affection.

After a while, the two heard footsteps coming, but Bai Lianye arrived first.

I just heard a young man's voice saying: "Father, can't I become my teacher to Mr. Qiu? Why should I become my teacher to that unknown person?"

Obviously, this young man should be Bai Yu.

But Bai Lianye scolded him: "Don't talk nonsense. Xu Xianchang has a very high status in the world of immortality. Among the monks who came here some time ago, none of them were very respectful when they heard Xu Xianchang's name? And Mr. Qiu himself admitted that Xu Xianchang has a very high status." Your cultivation level is still above him. It is your blessing to have Xu Xianchang as your teacher. Where did you come from so many words?"

"but……"

Bai Yu's voice just sounded, but he didn't say any more. He was obviously interrupted by Bai Lianye's eyes. He seemed to be afraid that as he approached the hall, Bai Yu's words would be heard by Xu Qingfan, but he didn't know that Xu Qingfan had already reached the late stage of Xu Dan. The entire general All the disturbances in the house were within the scope of his consciousness, but the conversation between their father and son had long been heard by Xu Qingfan.

On the other side, Qiu Xuan also smiled slightly, thinking that Xu Qingfan had gained such a great reputation in the world of immortal cultivation with the name of "Xu Fan". He had previously preached for the "Qingxu Sect" and was known as "The Spring and Autumn Annals on the Palm", and was famous in the world of immortal cultivation. And this time in the battle with the "Ming" organization, Xu Qingfan turned the tide several times, and I am afraid that his reputation will be even greater in the near future. Many sects, big and small, wanted to invite Xu Qingfan to preach but failed. Bai Yu had the opportunity to become Xu Qingfan's disciple, but he was unwilling.

While the two were thinking secretly, Bai Lianye had already brought a teenager to the hall. I saw that this teenager was seven points similar to Bai Lianye. Although he was still young, his figure was similar to Bai Lianye, but he was a little stronger. Perhaps because of his young age, the fierce and violent temperament unique to the descendants of the Qiongqi family could not be concealed at all, so although he was only a teenager, people could not help but feel fear when they saw him.

"Master Xu, Mr. Qiu, I have brought Bai Yu here."

Bai Lianye bowed to the two of them.

On the other side, Bai Yu bowed to Xu Qingfan and Qiu Xuan under his father's glare, but when facing Xu Qingfan, his expression was more reluctant.

At this time, Zhang Long also walked into the hall with a little girl. The little girl had beautiful eyebrows, red lips and white teeth, and she was a beauty. But her face was sickly and her body was thin, so her eyes looked particularly big. It was obviously Zhang Long's granddaughter Zhang Ningmei.

When Xu Qingfan saw Zhang Ningmei, he was stunned and finally understood why Qiu Xuan said that Zhang Ningmei's matter was a bit complicated.
