Chapter 434
by fanqienovelChapter 434: Finding the Organization
"I’m not, I can’t be Xiyouzi! If I had such an amazing predecessor, why would I be working here?" Li Xiyou quickly denied it.
Upon hearing Li Xiyou’s words, the shopkeeper did not suspect him further.
After all, if Li Xiyou was indeed the Xiyouzi who continued the Qingyun Sect, then by speaking out, he could immediately connect with an Immortal Lord.
Li Xiyou did not immediately reveal his identity because he was being cautious.
He didn’t know the attitude of that Qingyun Sect predecessor who ascended five hundred thousand years ago; what if that person intended to trick him and kill him?
After all, he had only inherited the legacy of the Qingyun Sect and was not originally one of its members.
In contrast to Li Xiyou’s caution, the other disciples of the Qingyun Sect were not as careful.
The disciples of the Qingyun Sect in the Immortal Realm numbered more than twenty, most of whom had ascended over one or two million years ago.
These individuals recognized the 349th Supreme Elder, Wen Qinglan, so they had no hesitation in choosing to recognize their ancestors.
As for the disciples of the Qingyun Sect that Li Xiyou continued, there were also a dozen or so who had ascended to the Immortal Realm, most of them with only human immortal barriers in their cultivation levels.
Upon learning that such impressive predecessors existed within the Immortal Realm, they also decided immediately to go to Immortal Lord Qingfeng’s small world to recognize their ancestors.
Everyone had the same thought: with such a big shot supporting them, they wouldn’t have to worry about their development in the Immortal Realm!
This was the advantage of being organized.
It was difficult to earn enough cultivation resources when fighting alone.
…
Fu Lingchu was the first to arrive at Wen Qinglan’s small world.
She was personally escorted by a True Immortal powerhouse to Wen Qinglan’s small world.
"Master, someone has brought one of your juniors," one of Wen Qinglan’s disciples conveyed to her while she was practicing.
"Arrange for them to be taken to the reception hall; I will be there shortly."
A few minutes later, Wen Qinglan appeared in the grand reception hall.
"Master, this person claims to be your junior."
"You are which generation disciple of the Qingyun Sect?" Wen Qinglan asked Fu Lingchu.
"I am Fu Lingchu, the 646th Supreme Elder of the Qingyun Sect, visiting my ancestor," Fu Lingchu bowed respectfully to Wen Qinglan.
"646th? Do you know who the 316th Sect Master is?" Wen Qinglan asked Fu Lingchu.
"Ancestor, the 316th Sect Master is Sect Master Ting An."
"And the 76th Sect Master?"
"Is Sect Master He Ling."
"And the 247th Sect Master?"
"Is Sect Master Chu Xiangjun."
Upon hearing Fu Lingchu’s answers, Wen Qinglan was almost certain that the person before her was indeed a disciple of the Qingyun Sect.
However, she wasn’t afraid of someone impersonating her because every generation of disciples from the Qingyun Sect that ascended left behind portraits and soul fluctuation information in the lower realm.
The appearance of the portraits could change, but the data of the soul fluctuations could not be imitated.
Each person’s soul information was unique, so their soul fluctuations were also different.
In the cultivation world, recognizing a person usually relied on their soul fluctuation information rather than their appearance.
When two familiar people made divine sense contact, they could basically recognize each other.
Wen Qinglan said she wasn’t worried about Fu Lingchu being an imposter mainly because she was certain that other disciples of the Qingyun Sect would also appear, and they could verify with each other later.
Of course, the main reason was that during their conversation, Wen Qinglan silently used a secret technique on Fu Lingchu to detect whether she was lying.
After confirming Fu Lingchu’s identity, Wen Qinglan looked toward the True Immortal who had escorted Fu Lingchu.
"Go back and tell Immortal Lord Qingyuan that I accept this favor," Wen Qinglan said to the True Immortal.
Then she took out a storage ring and tossed it to him. "This is some promised reward; please take it back."
Upon hearing Wen Qinglan’s words, the True Immortal quickly waved his hand. "Immortal Lord Qingfeng, my lord has instructed me not to take anything from the Immortal Lord."
"Since the person has been delivered, I’ll go back and report."
Without waiting for Wen Qinglan to say anything further, he left immediately.
Seeing this, Wen Qinglan did not stop him, allowing him to leave the small world.
"Fu Lingchu, right? Why don’t you tell me what has happened in the Qingyun Sect since my ascension?" Wen Qinglan smiled at Fu Lingchu.
"Yes, Ancestor…"
For several days afterward, Wen Qinglan and Fu Lingchu chatted continuously.
Wen Qinglan was particularly curious about what happened in the lower realm after her ascension.
Of course, because of the long passage of time since Fu Lingchu’s and Wen Qinglan’s eras, she only knew a general overview of events from over two hundred million years after Wen Qinglan’s ascension.
She mainly shared stories from her own time.
In the Human Race’s cultivation world, although people continually broke through to the great emperor realm and even ascended to the Immortal Realm, the territory for human cultivators remained quite small due to being adjacent to the domains of the two beast tribes.
Thus, infighting among the Human Race was also quite severe.
The destruction of the Qingyun Sect was a result of this internal conflict.
Through her exchanges with Fu Lingchu, Wen Qinglan became even more certain that Fu Lingchu was a descendant of the Qingyun Sect.
"You should stay by my side to cultivate. Soon I will personally establish the Qingyun Sect in the Immortal Realm, at which time you can serve as an elder," Wen Qinglan said to Fu Lingchu.
"I will listen to you, Ancestor," Fu Lingchu quickly replied with a nod.
"Feifei, take her to select a cave dwelling," Wen Qinglan called for Li Yufei.
"Yes, Master," Li Yufei responded eagerly.
Soon, Li Yufei brought Fu Lingchu to select a cave dwelling in Ling Mountain, close to Wen Qinglan’s cave dwelling.
"Elder Fu, this is the cultivation resource that Master asked me to give you; please take it," Li Yufei said as she handed a storage ring to Fu Lingchu after selecting the cave.
"By the way, inside is a token crafted by Master. Once you refine it, you can join the sect’s group chat. From then on, you can directly contact me using the token for any information," Li Yufei smiled at Fu Lingchu.
"Thank you very much, Senior!" Fu Lingchu quickly expressed her gratitude.
"You don’t need to call me Senior; I’m only a bit over a hundred thousand years old. Just call me Li Yufei or Yufei," Li Yufei said with a smile.
"That won’t do. You are the disciple of my ancestor and also my senior. I can only call you Senior Yufei at most."
Hearing this, Li Yufei waved her hand. "Alright, alright, even though I’m Master’s disciple, I am not part of the Qingyun Sect. Let’s just go our separate ways; you’re older than me, so I’ll call you Senior Fu."
"Well, okay then," Fu Lingchu nodded in response to Li Yufei’s words.
As someone new to this place, she would go along with whatever others said.
In the following period, Li Yufei showed Fu Lingchu around the small world, introducing her to the situation within it.
After Li Yufei left, Fu Lingchu opened the storage ring to take a look.
As soon as she saw the contents, her breathing quickened.
There were so many good things inside the storage ring.
Countless immortal essence stones, and they were medium-quality immortal essence stones, totaling more than a hundred thousand!
Additionally, the storage ring contained a set of top-grade immortal tools usable in the Heavenly Immortal realm, along with elixirs and talismans.
Seeing so many cultivation resources, Fu Lingchu felt as if she had finally found an organization.
Having senior members from the sect looking after her felt absolutely wonderful.
