On this day, Taiweizong welcomed an unexpected guest.

At that time, Qingyangzi was sitting in his practice room meditating and practicing.

After accepting Feng Shao as the eldest disciple, Feng Shao took care of almost all the affairs of the sect. Even the transfer of skills and karma was led by Feng Shao. Qingyangzi and others were sitting peacefully in their rooms, meditating and practicing the techniques passed down from their ancestors.

So for Qingyangzi, such a day is really a calm day.

Until a disciple came to his door and reported to Qingyangzi that someone claimed to be the master's uncle and asked to enter the mountain gate to meet the master.

When he learned about this, Qingyangzi was completely confused. After thinking about it for a while, I finally remembered that I did have such an uncle.

However, in Qingyangzi's impression, this uncle left Shanmen very early, probably seventy or eighty years ago. After so many years, this uncle has never returned to the mountain gate, and no news has been conveyed. He seems to have disappeared from the world long ago. Today, it was only after being reminded by my disciple that I remembered that I still have an uncle!

But why did Uncle Master suddenly come back to the mountain gate?

Qingyangzi didn't think much and directly asked his disciples to receive this uncle in the hall. After Qingyangzi tidied up and came to the lobby, he saw an old man with unshaven beard and ragged clothes sitting on a chair in an extremely inelegant posture, drinking wine leisurely.

Qingyangzi didn't recognize the other party at first glance. He would not rush to call someone his uncle just because the other person said he was his uncle. He had to confirm his identity first. But before he could see the other person's face clearly, the old man slammed the table and shouted: "Qingyangzi, do you know your guilt?"

Qingyangzi: "..."

Where are you? Just ask me if I know I am guilty!

Qingyangzi was annoyed in his heart, but he said calmly on his face: "Qingyangzi, may I ask your senior's name?"

The old man looked at Qingyangzi for a while, then suddenly sneered and said with a sneer: "Qingyangzi, you are so patient! You don't recognize me even when you meet my uncle? Okay! My senior brother really has a good apprentice!"

Qingyangzi said in a neither humble nor arrogant tone: "I did have an uncle once, but he has been missing for many years. Since the senior said he was my uncle, do you have proof?"

The old man said with a gloomy face: "Proof? My face is proof! You Qingyangzi, do you think that being the leader means you can no longer take your uncle in your eyes?"

Qingyangzi almost wanted to curse. What's going on with this old man? You say you are my uncle, but you have to show proof! When his uncle left Taiwei Sect, Qingyangzi had just joined the sect a few years ago, and he usually concentrated on practicing, so he had no interaction with his uncle. He only met a few times during New Years and holidays. Since the two parties have never met each other several times, how can they recognize each other at a glance when they meet again seventy or eighty years later?

This old man is totally messing around!

However, considering that the other party might really be his uncle, Qingyangzi could only suppress the dissatisfaction in his heart and said calmly: "Senior, I don't know something. When my uncle left the mountain gate, I was still young and I didn't care about my uncle. I don’t have much impression. You naturally claim to be my uncle, so please show me your credentials, otherwise I will have to ask you to leave the sect.”

The old man laughed angrily and was about to speak when he heard a voice say: "Uncle, don't be anxious. After all, I haven't seen you for many years. It's normal that I don't recognize you."

It was only then that Qingyangzi discovered that Ye Chen was actually sitting next to the old man.

At this time, Ye Chen looked like a father and a filial son, respectful to the old man, and his tone of voice was also polite. It was just that he called the old man "Uncle Master" as soon as he came up, which made Qingyangzi a little unhappy.

If your kid wants to recognize me, you can do it yourself, but don't drag others into it!

But before Qingyangzi could speak, Ye Chen said to Qingyangzi: "Uncle Master, this old man is indeed the great uncle of our sect. He once used our sect's secrets in front of his disciples. It’s impossible to use it unless you’re from this sect.”

When Qingyangzi heard this, he glanced at Ye Chen with some displeasure. This time, he was not dissatisfied with Ye Chen blindly recognizing his relatives, but he was dissatisfied with Ye Chen's attitude.

When Qingyangzi walked into the lobby, Ye Chen did not stand up to salute, but sat on the chair with the old man. Not only that, he had no intention of saluting when he spoke, as if he was not the master's uncle in front of him, but an acquaintance of his own generation.

Qingyangzi couldn't help but secretly think that perhaps the etiquette education of the three disciples should be taken seriously.

Just as he was thinking about it, the old man suddenly slammed the table again, shouted at Qingyangzi and asked: "Qingyangzi, I asked you if you know your guilt, why didn't you answer?"

Qingyangzi frowned slightly and asked with some displeasure: "I wonder what crime I am guilty of?"

The old man sneered and said: "You have three crimes. Not distinguishing between good and evil, right from wrong, using public tools for personal use, nepotism, this is the first crime; neglecting one's duties, eating without food, being lazy, not thinking about making progress, this is the second crime; not knowing people well. , failing to identify people, and allowing Zhuzi to be in power, this is the third crime. By the way, there is another crime: disrespecting the elders, this is the fourth crime! You said you committed these four major crimes, why don't you know the crime? "

Qingyangzi: "..."

Is there something wrong with this old man?

This old man listed four charges at the beginning, but except for the last one, which barely made sense, the other three were simply inexplicable and he didn't know where to start.

Qingyangzi was wondering what the problem was. When he saw Ye Chen's inadvertent smug look, he immediately understood.

Could this old man have been fooled by Ye Chen?

To be honest, although Ye Chen lost to Feng Shao at the canonization ceremony of the Son of God, Qingyangzi still valued this disciple very much. After all, Ye Chen cultivated to the innate realm in five years, which was really amazing. He even thought privately that if Ye Chen could beat Feng Shao in the future, then he could consider replacing him with the position of the Son of God. Even the marriage with Yunjian Pavilion could be transferred to him.

But now he didn't expect that Ye Chen found an old man of unknown identity from somewhere and asked him about the crime aggressively. So what role did Ye Chen play in this matter? What effect did he play? Could it be that this kid coveted the position of the Holy Son and began to covet his position as the head of the sect?

Thinking of this, Qing Yangzi rolled his eyes and said to the old man: "Please forgive my poor eyesight. I really don't recognize you. Since you said you are a disciple of Taiwei Sect, you must hold the disciple token of our sect, right? Please show me your disciple token so that I can confirm your identity."

Qing Yangzi kept saying "disciple", which was to imply that no matter whether you are a master uncle or not, I am the head of Taiwei Sect now, and you are at most a disciple? What? Elder? Please, Taiwei Sect has not had an elder position for hundreds of years. The two elders of the Alchemy Pavilion and the Foundry were pulled in from outside by Feng Shao!

And when that master uncle left Taiwei Sect, he was indeed an ordinary disciple, and the token he held was also a disciple token. But if he really took out the disciple token, then even if he proved his identity, Qing Yangzi would be the winner.

It must be said that Qing Yangzi's words directly put the old man in a difficult position.

The old man was embarrassed when he heard this, and he hesitated: "It's been so many years, it's just a token, who would still carry it with them? I don't know where I hid it a long time ago."

Qing Yangzi was delighted, and said with a smile on his face: "In this case, it is difficult for me to confirm the identity of the senior. Although my Taiwei Sect is not a big sect, it is impossible to treat anyone as a senior of our sect casually. Please forgive me."

The old man was angry when he heard this: "Qing Yangzi, you dare not recognize your uncle in front of you? What did your master teach you? Have you forgotten the hierarchy of our sect?"

Qing Yangzi replied calmly: "The hierarchy of our sect is always in mind. But the identity of the senior is unknown, and there is no evidence to prove my identity, so I can only call you a senior!"

Old man: "..."

I was careless! I shouldn't have exchanged the token for wine!
