Chapter 219: Double the effort, double the hardship
When Bai Xiangling saw that someone was competing with her for the person again, she could hardly maintain the expression on her face.
She said angrily, "He's such a handsome young man. What good is it to be a monk? He has to give up this and that. He just joined the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect and even has to burn some ugly scars on his head."
As soon as these words were spoken, the bald monk's face turned dark and the atmosphere around him instantly became dark.
Someone quietly lit candles for Bai Xiangling. She had offended the people of the Wanfo Sect with just one sentence!
The people of the Ten Thousand Buddhas Sect claim to be the most favored people by Heaven, the most sacred cultivators, and are inviolable to outsiders.
The scars on their heads are equivalent to a vow, and once they stop fasting, the scars will disappear automatically.
"Does the wife of the Spiritual Doctor Peak Master look down on my Ten Thousand Buddha Sect?" The bald monk was obviously angry.
Although Bai Xiangling didn't want to offend anyone, she still said coldly at this point, "This isn't a question of looking down on me. You expressed your opinion, and I just expressed mine. I don't think gold-type spiritual roots are necessarily suitable for your Ten Thousand Buddha Sect."
Having said this, she paused and continued, "Let's not talk about anything else. Doesn't the disciple of Lingqin Peak Master have a gold spiritual root? Moreover, he has only been in my Jiuling Sect for a short time, but he has already reached the early stage of the Spiritual Severing Realm. Therefore, I think he is more suitable for my Lingyi Peak."
Li Qingqing: “…”
Will Bai Xiangling die if she is not dragged along?
The bald monk looked very unhappy, but because of Bai Xiangling's words, he still looked at Li Qingqing.
"Does Lingqin Peak Master think her words make sense?"
Li Qingqing was quite depressed when she was named, but she still expressed her opinion.
"Let me be honest. A single gold spiritual root is indeed very suitable for learning the Ten Thousand Buddha Sect's Vajra Technique and the Golden Root Great Dao. If one has wisdom, it would be even more suitable. In addition, a single gold spiritual root is actually quite suitable for learning weapon refining techniques and even swordsmanship. This depends on the cultivator's own wishes."
The bald monk nodded, agreeing with Li Qingqing's words, "Master Lingqin Peak is right. I think this boy has wisdom, so I'm trying to win him over."
Li Qingqing nodded, "This is normal. When encountering a disciple with good talent and good eye, everyone has the same mentality."
Bai Xiangling was unhappy when she heard this, "Li Qingqing, whose side are you on?"
Even if they don't get along with each other, shouldn't they be united against the outside world?
Li Qingqing frowned slightly. "This is the general election for the major sects in Xizhou. It doesn't matter which side I take. Everything should be done on a consensual basis, including accepting disciples. What can someone with a gold spiritual root do at the Spiritual Medicine Peak? Alchemy requires controlling fire, which he can't do. He needs to work twice as hard. He also needs to sort medicinal materials and master the medicinal properties of various spiritual plants and herbs. It would be even better if he had the wood spirit, but he doesn't have it. He has to work twice as hard and endure twice as much hardship in this area after entering the Spiritual Medicine Peak..."
"Even when refining pills to remove medicinal impurities, it's better to have water spiritual roots. You said that everything will become more difficult for him, so how can you force me to say that he is suitable for Spiritual Medicine Peak?"
When she asked this question, Bai Xiangling suddenly fell silent.
Everyone around started whispering.
"Master Lingqin's words are truly sincere..."
"Yes! And Lingqin Peak Master is speaking from the perspective of a candidate. Just from what she said, I can tell that she is truly a very good master..."
"Compared to this, the wife of the Spiritual Medicine Peak Master is so selfish..."
When Bai Xiangling heard these words, she was furious.
However, before she could say anything else, the future most beautiful monk had already made his choice.
"Thank you for your words, Master Lingqin. I choose to join the Ten Thousand Buddha Sect."
Bai Xiangling's eyes widened instantly: "..."
So, this person still wants to be a monk?
The bald monk was stunned for a moment, but quickly reacted.
He bowed to Li Qingqing and said with a smile, "Thank you, Master Lingqin, for your righteous words! I am Elder Tianyi of the Wanfo Sect. I apologize for any offense I caused in Dongzhou last time. I, the Wanfo Sect, have actually been looking for an opportunity to apologize to you. I would like to take this opportunity to solemnly apologize and thank you!"
After the Dongzhou misunderstanding, they actually hated Fu Changye, but they also felt indebted to the Master of Lingqin Peak.
The people of the Wanfo Sect practice Buddhism and cultivate their minds, so they must not have any inner demons. So at this moment he chose to apologize and express his gratitude.
Li Qingqing did not put on airs and politely returned the gift.
"This was also a misunderstanding. I hope this won't happen again in the future."
"Of course, of course..." Elder Tianyi nodded with a smile.
Bai Xiangling felt really upset when she saw Li Qingqing resolve the misunderstanding with the people from the Wanfo Sect.
In this way, Li Qingqing has one less enemy!
Next, the election for disciples continued, and the leaders would still fight fiercely for a certain disciple, but Bai Xiangling and Li Qingqing became very quiet.
Li Qingqing was quiet because she didn't see any talented young people.
Bai Xiangling is quiet because there is no one with particularly good looks to attract her attention.
The day passed in such an atmosphere.
In the evening, Xia Nanfeng rushed to Xichen Mountain in Xizhou and met his little apprentice.
Okay, she’s really a small girl!
"Master, do you know what our great master's favorite food is?" Sheng Yuyan asked Xia Nanfeng in a low voice.
It took Xia Nanfeng a while to realize that the little girl was calling him.
He thought for a moment before saying, "My master really likes to eat the spiritual food made by the Spiritual Kitchen Peak Master. She used to love watching her eat the Qingning Balls, and now she seems to really like the peach juice made from the spiritual peaches of Guiyin Island."
Sheng Yuyan blinked, "Then Master, can I go to Lingchu Peak to learn how to make Qingning Balls and Peach Spirit Juice? I want to make them for Master."
Xia Nanfeng coughed lightly, "Well, is that okay? Your Third Uncle Yao Han's sister Yao Jiang is at Lingchu Peak. She's a few years older than you. I'll have her come to Lingqin Peak more often. You two girls will definitely be able to play together. Your Grandmaster also likes Yao Jiang very much and says that she's a very good cook."
"Yes, thank you, Master." Sheng Yuyan nodded happily.
Actually, Xia Nanfeng was not very good at taking care of children. After seeing that his master was going to teach Xiao Yuyan the ninth volume of Huayin in the evening, he stood by and watched.
After watching for a while, he found that the little disciple chosen by his master for him was really talented and could play the Soul-Summoning Song even better than he did.
He suddenly felt a sense of crisis!
He still spent too little time on the Nine Volumes of Huayin!
After listening to Xiao Yuyan's piano playing gradually getting better, Li Qingqing said to Xia Nanfeng, "You stay here and accompany her to practice the piano! I have something to do."
"Yes, Master." Xia Nanfeng nodded.
Li Qingqing left the space tent and took a pot of good wine to find the leader of Fenglei Sect.
The Fenglei Sect's headmaster was also drinking and chatting with an old friend at the moment. Seeing Li Qingqing coming over, he couldn't help but laugh and said, "Master Lingqin, do you think you don't need to teach that kid the Nine Volumes of Huayin anymore?"
