As soon as Ling Meng said this, the entire banquet hall immediately became silent, and even if an embroidery needle fell to the ground, you could hear it.

Regarding the sudden death of Lingguang mentioned by Ling Meng just now, not to mention that Zhou Shaobai and other young disciples have never heard of it. Even Chengyu's generation has only heard of some words. This matter has always been a taboo in the sect, and no one dares to ask questions.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, someone raised it again.

After a silence, there was still no one in the hall except for the "Bibo" sound of the candles blowing on the lights.

Lingxu leaned back in the back of the chair, with a calm face, and could not tell whether it was anger or sadness. Lingji beside him sighed: "Senior sister, why do you want to mention the incident many years ago?"

Ling Ji's appearance looks the oldest among the Ling generation, with white hair and beards and gullies on his face. Now he calls Ling Meng, who looks only about twenty, a senior sister. Although the atmosphere in the banquet hall was tense and serious at this time, Zhou Shaobai still wanted to laugh.

The host Lingmeng snorted coldly: "You only care about the nine meridians, but have you ever remembered that today is his death day!"

"Junior sister... don't be impatient. There are so many younger generations here. We immortals should be careful of some face." Ling Shi couldn't help but speak. He wanted to say something else, and Lingxu raised his hand to interrupt him.

Ling Meng looked at Lingxu and snorted again.

Lingxu slowly spoke, "Junior sister, what you taught me is that I have been busy with the discussion of the nine meridians recently, and I have forgotten my senior brother's death day. I am really wrong. I am so guilty and speechless."

He stood up, holding the jade cup in his hand, his figure trembled slightly, his face full of sadness, and his sad voice was filled with sadness: "Senior Brother Lingguang, it has been fifty years since he left! Fifty years in the blink of an eye, the ignorant young man in front of Xiyun Mountain, look--now all have become Fengzhu Old Man!"

Lingji Lingshi heard what the leader said, and remembered the time when the few people first met when they were young, they couldn't help but feel a lot of emotion, with stars in their eyes, as if tears were flashing.

Lingxu walked to the middle of the hall, looked at the snow outside the hall door in the distance, and said in a daze: "Senior Brother Lingguang, you made a great wish at that time, to cultivate the supreme way like the ancestor, ascend to the Supreme Way, and be ranked in the immortal class, so that the creek clouds will be famous forever, and will not fall for a thousand years... However, the world is impermanent, and the sky will not fulfill people's wishes, and he died young..."

Speaking of this, Lingxu's desolate voice choked up, with tears in his eyes, and everyone in the banquet hall was touched.

Ling Meng looked at the candlelight on the wall and had already recalled her youth.

"...Senior Brother Lingguang, it's a pity... But if you can see the current stream clouds in the sky--" Lingxu waved his hand and pointed at the people in the hall, "These young talents emerging are like bamboo shoots and waves after the rain. They will definitely be the mainstay of my stream clouds in the future. Senior Brother, you should feel very comforted when you see them..."

Lingxu was crying when he said this, and Lingshi Lingji was speechless.

Suddenly, Lingxu flipped the jade cup in his hand and sprinkled all the nectar on the ground: "Senior Brother! I forgot your death day, this is my fault! I am apologizing for this glass of wine! When the people disperse, I will go to your grave and drink it with you until dawn!"

After saying that, Lingxu covered his face and trembled. Chengyu quickly stood up and supported him, comforting him: "Uncle, the leader, you must not be too sad and sentimental."

Chengguan also put down his wine glass and comforted the others. Ling Meng sat in the chair dejectedly and stopped talking. Mu Ningzhi glanced at the master and looked up at everyone. It happened that Zhou Shaobai also looked over, and the two of them had a look in exchange.

Zhou Shaobai only saw a pool of autumn water, but there was no ripples. Mu Ningzhi looked at him as if nothing had happened and directly withdrew his gaze.

He sighed in his heart, it seemed that the right and wrong were difficult to resolve.

At this time, the head of the sect was still in a state of grief. Everyone comforted him for a long time and finally calmed down. However, the celebration dinner ended up in an unhappy way.

Everyone said goodbye and left. Chengguan saw that he had worked hard for many days but finally ended up in a hurry. He was very dissatisfied. If it weren't for the identity of the host, he would have wished he could spit a few saliva at Lingmeng's back.

Zhou Shaobai also parted with Li Yuankang, Zhang Xiaofeng and others. Everyone knew that this was just a small separation and could get back together in a few days to go down the mountain together.

I remembered that after going down the mountain, I might have the opportunity to go to Shuichuan to find Qin Ziling. Zhou Shaobai's previous depression was wiped out, and the boy's heart was already full of yearning for the flower world at the foot of the mountain.

That night, the master and apprentice returned to Yuping Peak. After this first battle, Zhou Shaobai entered the second round. Chengyu was very happy. Yuping Peak had already received news and prepared food and drinks. After the two came back, they celebrated it. After Zhou Shaobai felt that after Master’s father taught the sect’s superior skills, he rarely had such an opportunity to have fun. He was drunk by his brothers and slept until noon the next day before he woke up.

However, Chengyu will no longer give him a chance to be lazy. While there are still a few days before going down the mountain, he also gave detailed guidance based on Zhou Shaobai's shortcomings in this competition, hoping to teach all his life's learning. Every day, Zhou Shaobai is all about starry and moon. Under the strict supervision of his master, he sweats profusely in the bamboo forest. In just a few days, he has a new understanding and advances to a higher level.

On this day, a crescent moon hangs in the sky, the breeze gushed in the bamboo forest, the heat of the day had long faded, and the Yuping Peak was a cool night

color.

However, in the bamboo forest, Zhou Shaobai was still practicing.

"Shaobai, although your cultivation has improved day by day, your foundation is still shallow, so if you practice the Taoist sect of Qingfeng Falling Leaf Steps with force, it will not only be useless, but also harmful. However, if you are a teacher, you will simplify the Qingfeng Falling Leaf Steps and add a few based on your cultivation level, and create a set of the Free and Seven Stars Steps. Remember it carefully and practice it now for your teacher." Chengyu said this, secretly luck, wind was generated under his feet, and showed the essence of the Free and Seven Stars Steps.

Zhou Shaobai saw the master's figure under the moonlight, and his steps were flexible and changeable. After savoring it carefully, he realized that the steps were slow and fast, and the movements were difficult to measure, and it could attack or defend. It was a set of excellent exercises that were not inferior to the Qingfeng Leaf Step.

After Chengyu finished the demonstration, he clasped his fists and closed his posture, without getting dusty feet, and breathed evenly, as usual. Zhou Shaobai couldn't help but exclaim loudly: "Master is really a genius of Xiyun!"

"Boy, please flatter me. Please ask you, what tricks have you seen?"

Zhou Shaobai savored it carefully, thought for a while and said, "Although Master's new steps were derived from the Qingfeng Leaf Step, he was vaguely arrogant and had a way of advancing and retreating, and it seemed... it seemed that some kind of mathematics was hidden in it."

Chengyu said in surprise: "Good boy! You have this kind of experience after just doing it once for your teacher! OK, OK! OK!"

He said three words "good" in a row, and then asked, "Then compare these two sets of steps and say whatever you think, without being restrained."

Zhou Shaobai replied, "Yes, Master, then I'll be talking nonsense. Just now, Master said that this set of steps was derived from the Qingfeng Leaf Step, but it was more suitable for me to practice with a low level of cultivation. After I looked at it, I felt this way. The Qingfeng Leaf Step, at first glance, I felt ordinary, but when I think about it carefully, the changes were almost impossible to achieve by human intelligence. Therefore, this set of steps seemed easy to get started, and the hardships were all behind. And this set of free and easy seven-star steps has a way of advance and retreat, with strict laws and changes, and at first glance, it was extremely complicated, but after careful study, I found that there must be traces to follow. If there are traces to follow, there will naturally be flaws. The Qingfeng Leaf Step is like a breeze blowing on the leaves, and the leaves flutter with the wind, and there is no trace to be found. Then it will naturally be flaws."
