Chronicles of Celestial Origins

Ziju County, Taopu City, Wuyue Wharf.

Tang Ning arrived with a laser beam, followed by Yan Jiuzheng, Xin Yi and other people who had returned from the abandoned land.

Not far away, Pazexi and his party were already waiting: "We have fulfilled your conditions. Where is the space passage connecting Tianyuan World to Immortal World?"

"Now is not the time."

Pazexi narrowed her eyes slightly: "What do you mean? Are you teasing us?"

"Am I taking such a big risk to come here twice to negotiate with you, am I just trying to tease you? Is it too cost-effective to exchange the life of a Mahayana monk for the secret of the space passage to ascend to the immortal world? Is it so cheap in the world? Something?"

"You said that after we complete the conditions, you will tell us the location of the space channel."

"I'll tell you, but not now."

"When was that?"

"My goal is peace. It's not that I can't trust you, but I'm worried that your words may not represent Tianqi Realm. I want to see the chief of your Senate. At that time, I will invite the leaders of the major forces in Tianyuan Realm to come to discuss and reach an agreement. Cooperate and share the agreement to connect the space channel of the fairy world."

"I have already promised you this. But I will first determine the location of the space channel to verify that what you said is true."

"This is not a contradiction. When the chief of your Senate and other representatives arrive, and before formal discussions on peaceful cooperation, you can send one person to accompany me to the location connecting the space channel in the Tianyuan world. Peace negotiations will be conducted after it is confirmed. If even this If you can't do it at all, it will only prove that you have no sincerity in negotiating. How can I believe that you will choose to retreat after learning the location of the space channel."

"Okay, let's trust you again. I will report the matter to the chief and ask him to come forward in person. Today, ten years later, we meet here. If you still have many excuses, it's not because we are not sincere. ”

"Then see you in ten years!"

…

In Tianyuan Holy City, at the gate of Taixuanzong, in the majestic cave mansion, a disciple pushed the door in, saluted respectfully to Shangguan Chengyuan who was sitting cross-legged inside, and handed over a file: "Headmaster, there is urgent news from Qingzhou, Master Han. He was ambushed by demons in Qingzhou and was unfortunately killed. This is a handwritten letter from Uncle Tang."

Shangguan Chengyuan's eyes narrowed, and he immediately took the file in his hand. He looked at it intently for a while, and finally nodded: "I understand, go and invite the Masters of Yuanyi Hall and Xuande Hall."

"Yes." The man responded and left.

Not long after, Guo Qiuhua and Wei Yuanqian arrived one after another. When they heard the news of Han Siyuan's death, both of them were silent.

"The Qingzhou Allied Forces have jointly recommended Junior Brother Tang Ning to be the temporary commander-in-chief of the Allied Forces. In the letter sent by Junior Brother Tang, he advised us to elect a new leader of Qingxuan Hall as soon as possible."

Wei Yuangan frowned slightly: "Junior Brother Han has just been killed, and his body is still cold, so he is anxious to appoint the leader of Qingxuan Palace. It would be too anxious!"

He secretly thought that Tang Ning wanted to take this position. After all, he had become the chief of the Qingzhou Coalition Army, and several coalition chiefs had been held by the Master of Qingxuan Palace of Taixuan Sect.

Moreover, there is no one more suitable than him within Taixuan Sect. In terms of cultivation, prestige, ability and merit, he is more than enough to serve as the head of Qingxuan Palace.

Guo Qiuhua knew what he was thinking and answered: "Now is a time of turmoil. An early appointment will help stabilize people's hearts. What do the headmaster and Junior Brother Wei think about Tang Ning taking over as the master of Qingxuan Hall?"

At the same time that Shangguan Chengyuan received Tang Ning's letter, another letter was also sent to Guo Qiuhua. The same letter was written by Tang Ning, asking Guo Qiuhua to help Nangong Muxue choose the master of Qingxuan Palace.

At this time, Guo Qiuhua deliberately mentioned Tangning's name in order to reduce resistance when Nangong Muxue was mentioned later.

People are always like this and like to adopt compromise methods. If you directly ask to open a window, others may not agree.

But if you advocate tearing down the roof at first, and then fall back to asking for a window when you are not satisfied, others will agree.

Tang Ning is Guo Qiuhua's roof. Although his ability, prestige, and strength are the best choice for the master of Qingxuan Palace, he is not a direct disciple of Taixuan Sect, but joined Taixuan Sect halfway. Disciples like him are generally even There is no chance to go back to the mountain gate to report on the work.

The position of head of the Taixuan Sect was held by the direct descendants of the sect who had been trained since childhood. With Tang Ning's background, it was a major issue to choose the future head of the sect.

In fact, many people in the sect don't trust him very much.

Sure enough, when he heard Guo Qiuhua recommending Tang Ning, Wei Yuanqian frowned even more: "I don't doubt Junior Brother Tang Ning's ability and loyalty, but he joined our sect halfway, and the master of Qingxuan Palace is the future leader of our sect. Successor, this sect has been passed down for millions of years, and the sect leader has always been a disciple trained since childhood. There has never been such a precedent. "

"Today is different from the past. At a time when the world is in chaos, we need capable people to ensure the glory and continuation of our sect. Junior Brother Tang is unmatched in terms of prestige, ability, strength, and contribution to our sect. Now he is defeated by Qingzhou The coalition forces elected him as the leader of the coalition forces, which shows that he is deeply supported by the Qingzhou coalition forces. How can he be excluded from the candidates because of his sectarian opinions? "

Guo Qiuhua did not back down because of this, and still pushed Tang Ning.

"That's not what I meant, let alone to exclude him. When he was appointed as the leader of Qingwu Camp, I agreed with him, and even asked him to give up my position as the leader of Xuande Hall. But if he is selected as the next leader, the sect will There really is no precedent for this.”

"Is there a precedent for a disciple who joins from Ban Dao to serve as the steward of Qingwu Camp?"

Seeing the two people arguing, Shangguan Chengyuan waved his hand: "The election of the director of Qingxuan Hall is of great importance. It needs to be voted for by the disciples of Qingxuan Hall. It is not something we can appoint. Let's discuss this matter in the future!"

The three of them discussed for a while and then left.

…

A few days later, Guo Qiuhua came to Shangguan Chengyuan Cave Mansion again, and the two of them took their seats respectively.

"What brings Senior Brother Guo here?"

"What does the headmaster think about Tang Ning's appointment as the head of Qingxuan Palace?"

"This matter needs to be considered in the long run. Junior Brother Han's body is still cold, so we are rushing to elect the next master of Qingxuan Hall. It seems a bit too hasty."

"I know that many people in the sect are concerned that Tang Ning is not a direct descendant of the sect, but under the current situation, it would be unreasonable not to elect him as the leader of Qingxuan Palace. I am worried that he will have a grudge because of this, and now Qingzhou cannot do without him. Apart from him, no one can defend Qingzhou.

"If he leaves Qingzhou in anger like last time, I'm afraid things will be irreversible. The demon clan is currently sitting in Jinan County, eyeing them with eager eyes. Only Tang Ning can't suppress them."

"To put it bluntly, with his current reputation and ability, if he stamps his feet, Qingzhou will no longer belong to the sect."

Shangguan Chengyuan nodded: "What Senior Brother Guo said is reasonable, let me think about it again."

"If the headmaster is really in a dilemma, I have a compromise solution that can be accepted by the rest of the sect while also ensuring that Tangning won't be resentful."

"Oh? What's your clever plan, Senior Brother Guo?"

"As Tang Ning is not a direct disciple of the sect, becoming the head of Qingxuan Palace will inevitably attract opposition from many people, but apart from him, there is no better candidate. Forcibly preventing him from being elected may also lead to him being hostile to the sect. If there is resentment, the consequences will be disastrous. The next best thing is to elect someone close to him for this position."

Shangguan Chengyuan said calmly: "Senior Brother Guo means to let Junior Sister Nangong take the position of leader of Qingxuan Hall?"

"That's right. Muxue is Tang Ning's wife's mentor and has a very close relationship with him. She is also a direct disciple of the sect and is very loyal to the sect. If she takes over the position of leader of Qingxuan Hall, the rest of the sect will probably have nothing to say. It is impossible for Tangning to feel resentful because his beloved wife and mentor took his position."

Shangguan Chengyuan nodded and said, "This is a good idea. I just don't know what Tangning's attitude is?"

"If the headmaster can support Mu Xue, I will handle Tangning's side and ensure that he does his best to defend Qingzhou for the sect without causing any trouble."

"Well, Junior Brother Wei and the rest of the sect will be in charge of me. Tangning will be left in charge of Senior Brother Guo."

………

In the majestic and majestic Qingxuan Hall, all the officials from various ministries gathered together and stood in the center.

Shangguan Chengyuan sat on the throne, flanked by senior officials from other sects such as Guo Qiuhua and Wei Yuanqian.

"The optional voting for the leader of Qingxuan Hall begins now." Shangguan Chengyuan gave the order, and several disciples immediately handed the scrolls to the stewards of Qingxuan Hall. Not long after, the candidates voted by everyone were handed over to Shangguan Yuan Acceptance.

Under the gazes of the sect's senior officials, as the names of the voting candidates fell one after another, Nangong Muxue won with a far lead in votes.

Shangguan Chengyuan solemnly announced the new successor to the head of Qingxuan Hall. Nangong Muxue, who was below, slowly stood up and walked towards the main seat of the Qingxuan Hall's meeting hall.

………

In a dark room in Qingzhou, Tang Ning sat cross-legged with her eyes closed, as motionless as a corpse. Above her head, a three-inch little man who looked exactly like him appeared, maintaining the same posture as him.

As the Nascent Soul child's breathing and exhalation rhythm increases, its whole body gradually emits dazzling light. Inside the room, the surrounding stone walls are already covered with dots of light.

At a certain moment, the Nascent Soul child suddenly opened his eyes, opened his mouth and took a breath, and countless dots of light on the surrounding stone walls rushed into his mouth like a swarm.

After absorbing the light, the Nascent Soul child grew taller and fatter visible to the naked eye, and gradually transformed into Tang Ning's appearance today.

With a swish, it penetrated directly into Tang Ning's body. A huge storm formed in the sea of ​​consciousness. After an unknown amount of time, when everything calmed down, Tang Ning opened her eyes and let out a breath.

At this moment, he has broken through the eighth level of the third level of Fugue Movement, and has also achieved great success in the Return to Origin Technique. (End of chapter)
