Chapter 191: A Hundred Years of Smoke and Clouds, He Becomes the Sect Leader
The people from Qinglian Mo family found the Heavenly Demon Spear Dugu Spear, and now four elders who have reached the perfect martial arts realm are chasing them.

According to the letter, the "Demon Spear" Dugu Qiang has reached the end of its strength and is at the point of life and death.

Gu Xuan couldn't help but frown slightly, then called the boy out, and then carefully baked the letter under the candle.

After a while, all the words on the surface of the paper were burned away, revealing a line of beautiful small characters.

"The Lord of Qingming is not dead. He is suspected to have been reborn in another body. He was taken in by his eldest disciple Zhuang Guyuan and re-entered Qingming Island."

The moment he saw the news, Gu Xuan was slightly stunned, and then his face was filled with horror.

After all, it is very difficult for a strong person in the realm of true person to cultivate again. Although he has to start from scratch now, if he has the opportunity, he may be able to break through to the realm of true person again.

Several years ago, Ye Yang and Wang Dong obtained a purple lightning silver peach tree in the longevity barrier, but it attracted the covetousness of Qing Mingzhu, who was a powerful True Person at that time.

Later, Gu Xuan united with Fengyu Tower, Taiyi Qingmen and other sects, and used the favor of Mr. Mo to invite Old Man Fenghuo to behead Lord Qingming.

However, Lord Qingming's soul separated from his body and fled far away, and no one was able to catch up.

Unexpectedly, the other party's soul could actually withstand the strong wind and be reborn in a new body.

"As expected, the strong ones in the True Person Realm should not be underestimated. Any strong one who can break through to the True Person Realm is a dragon among men. Fortunately, I have always had people pay attention to the news of Qingming Island and have never slacked off for many years."

Reincarnation by taking over another's body is not uncommon in the world of immortal cultivation, but the conditions are harsh.

Only those who have successfully formed a pill and have reached the realm of a true person can separate their soul from their body and have the opportunity to live again.

Once you are reborn into another body, your cultivation will be reset to zero, and you will have to endure the pain of the body and soul not being able to merge together.

After Lord Qingming took over another body, he became a disciple of his eldest disciple Zhuang Guyuan again. I think he must have many plans.

Gu Xuan frowned slightly. As the saying goes, if an old man is not dead, he will become a zombie. The contradiction between Lord Qingming and Feitianmen is irreconcilable.

Once Lord Qingming grows up, the two sides will become enemies of life and death.

"But if we can catch them all, it would be a good thing."

Lord Qingming has three disciples. Apart from the eldest disciple Zhuang Guyuan who is at the level of perfect warrior, the second and youngest disciples are at the middle level of warrior at best and are not a concern.

Lord Qingming wanted to establish a power before, so he used his cultivation in the realm of True Person to seize an island near the sea. The island was full of spiritual energy and was a treasure land.

Thinking of the island and the private collection of the powerful people in the realm of true person, Gu Xuan couldn't help but feel a little excited.

Thinking of this, Gu Xuan lit a cluster of blue flame in his right hand and burned the letter to ashes.

The fewer people who know about Lord Qingming, the better. Once it is exposed, it will cause a lot of unnecessary trouble.

And in the past few days, a shocking news came out and the world was shocked.

The controversial Heavenly Demon Spear is actually the Dugu Spear, the authentic descendant of Feitian Sect. However, Feitian Sect announced that the disciple had killed innocent people indiscriminately, severed ties with him, and expelled him from Feitian Sect.

……

A bright moon, two cups of tea, a three-foot sword, and four people facing their shadows.

Gu Xuan and Gu Qingshu sat facing each other, and Gu Xuan took out a huge demon pill.

The demon pill is smooth and bright, with rich spiritual energy. Inside there is a three-headed giant python with its head raised and howling.

Even though it was not a living creature, it could move with the moonlight through its breathing and closing, which was very vivid and beautiful.

"Little sister, you have to think about it carefully. Although the secret method of transforming pills is powerful, it is easy to be trapped by animal nature. Wu Mahan was so talented when he was young, but after practicing this secret method, he could not perfect himself and turned into a monster."

Gu Qingshu sighed quietly, "Brother, the path to immortality is difficult and bumpy. I know that I am dull and it is impossible for me to break through to the realm of a real person with this body. It is better for me to transform into a strange beast and seek wealth and honor in danger. Maybe there is still a chance."

"After hundreds of years of training and countless life-and-death crises, is it worth it to give up like this? Do you really have no regrets?"

Gu Qingshu bit her lower lip, frowned, a hint of hesitation flashed in her eyes, and she sighed.

"Maybe, I will regret it! But I will regret dying in vain even more."

"This is the path you chose. I will not dissuade you. If you fail, I will personally collect your body."

Gu Qingshu looked at Gu Xuan's thin figure and smiled: "Brother, the moon is very round tonight. Doesn't it look like the day when you carried me on your back to Feitianmen to become his disciple when we were little?"

On that day, apricot blossoms were flying all over the sky. Two thin siblings who had been bullied by their peers fled to Feitian Gate.

Gu Xuan always looked like he was not full. Even when he was full, he would keep putting food into his mouth.

When his younger sister asked him why he was trying so hard to eat.

Gu Xuan’s answer was simple.

"I'm very thin now. If I gain weight, I can help you take more beatings when you are bullied."

Unfortunately, after practicing for more than a hundred years, he still did not gain weight and still looked skinny and small.

Gu Xuan looked at Gu Qingshu, and seemed to see the thin, skinny little sister again in front of him.

But time flies, that was more than a hundred years ago.

"Little sister, I can no longer protect you."

"On the path of cultivation, I don't need anyone's protection."

The outer courtyard of the master's palace.

Ye Yang came slowly with a sword on his back.

"Please wait for a moment, Protector Ye." As soon as he walked into the master's hall, two Taoist children stopped him outside the door.

Ye Yang said, "The headmaster summoned me today. You will know once you ask."

The two Taoist boys looked at each other, one went to report, and the other bowed to Ye Yang.

"Please forgive me, Protector Ye. There are too many people who have come to see the Sect Master recently. The Sect Master is overwhelmed by them, so I issued an order not to allow anyone to disturb us."

Ye Yang nodded: "It's okay, you did a good job."

He praised them a few times, not wanting to embarrass these people.

As the saying goes, the seventh-rank official in front of the prime minister's door and the boys guarding the master's hall are all trusted disciples with decent character in the sect.

The two were very polite. Although he was in a high position, there was no need to make things difficult for these minions.

After a while, the boy who went to report came out.

"Protector Ye, the Sect Master wants to see you."

Ye Yang walked into the sect's main hall. Gu Xuan stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the fallen leaves outside the dragon-carved rosewood window.

He was thin and had a gaunt face, but his Taoist robe was spotless. Having been in a high position for a long time, he developed the aura of a person who had been in a superior position for a long time.

"Master, is there something important that you are calling me to do?"

Ye Yang asked, but Gu Xuan did not answer this question. He looked calm and asked.

"How's your injury these days?"

Ye Yang knew that what he was asking about was the incident in which he pretended that his meridians were broken and he was seriously injured. He sighed and shook his head.

"Not yet fully recovered."

Ye Yang quietly pondered the meaning of Gu Xuan's words. He had been attacked before, and in order to avoid being too much attention and causing trouble, he said to the outside world that he was seriously injured, his meridians were broken, and it was difficult for him to make any progress in his cultivation.

This is a humble statement, but also a self-protection strategy.

Only after Luo Changsheng's reminder did he realize that he had no special method to conceal himself. If outsiders used secret methods to observe, they could easily find out the truth.

Later, he obtained the Fortune Dragon Pearl given by Luo Changsheng and figured out a way to disguise his pulse, which was enough to block the observation of outsiders.

After Gu Xuan carefully sensed it, he couldn't help but shook his head.

"It is difficult to repair meridian damage, and it has always been an insurmountable obstacle for practitioners like us."

"However, I heard that the Blood Demon Sect seems to have a marrow cleansing, blood replacement and meridian coagulation method. After peeling off the skin and pulling out the tendons, it can forcibly replace the meridians of others with your own. Although it is too bloody and violent, and it is against the harmony of nature, it is still an option."

After saying that, he looked at Ye Yang and sighed.

"You have made great contributions to the sect. When this matter is over, I will recommend you to go to the Blood Demon Sect to get the treasure in exchange for this vein secret method."

The Blood Demon Sect believes that pain is the only way to comprehend the great Dao; secret methods such as skinning, pulling out tendons, and dissecting the abdomen are not uncommon in the sect.

Although it sounds very useful, it is more like the approach of some crazy people.

Ye Yang wanted to refuse, but for a long time, he had always shown his weak meridians to others. If he refused, it would definitely arouse suspicion from the outside world.

However, Ye Yang keenly sensed a message from Gu Xuan's words just now.

"It's happened here!"

Gu Xuan did not say what exactly happened.

But he looked at Ye Yang and said, "Don't go out during this period of time. The Qinglian Mo family has been eyeing you covetously. There may be something big to do next."

Then Gu Xuan took out a mask that was as thin as a cicada's wing, felt icy all over, and was withered and yellow with wrinkles on it. He handed the mask to Ye Yang.

"I have another important matter to ask you to come here this time. You should keep the mask on your face for the next few days and stay in the main hall without going out.

Ye Yang took the mask and looked at it carefully. The mask looked exactly like Gu Xuan's, as if they were carved from the same mold.

Ye Yang was puzzled.

Gu Xuan said, "This mask is a secret treasure of the Qianhuan Mi Sect. It is stained with my figure, aura, and magic power. After you use it, it will transform into me. Everything will be arranged."

"Just follow the master's orders."

"Now that there are wolves all around, I have another important task to do before I leave the sect. All you need to do is wear a mask and sit in the headmaster's hall for thirty days."

Although Ye Yang didn't know what Gu Xuan's plan was, he didn't ask much. He accepted the mask with great care.

Seeing Ye Yang accept the mask, Gu Xuan nodded and said, "The Qinglian Mo family is still determined to kill us. My Feitian Sect is not their opponent yet. When we go out this time, there will definitely be masters from the Qinglian Mo family around us. You just need to remain unchanged in the face of all changes."

After finishing speaking, Gu Xuan slowly walked out of the master's hall.

He walked under the purple silver peach tree. The moonlight was bright, casting silver light.

He did not ride the Flying Silver-banded Manta Ray, but changed into a rare moon-white robe and walked out of the Feitian Gate alone.

Shortly after Gu Xuan went out, Ye Yang suddenly heard the rumbling sound of swords coming from outside the Feitian Gate.

Then a loud voice came from outside.
