Wu Chang Jie

20

Xie Bi An had been to Lanxi Town and Diancang Peak before, but it was the first time he had ever been to Yunding.

There were many people who wanted to go up to Yunding every day with various purposes that they could not even be driven away, so Wuliang Sect had set up a checkpoint under Diancang Peak and a barrier at Yunding. Xie Bi An only went to Diancang Peak to see the scenery via sword flight.

Yunding was just as described by the world, like a fairyland surrounded by auspicious clouds, where the green-clad Taoists greeted guests and cleaned in an orderly manner. They stop to greet guests when they encounter them. All rules are obeyed in perfect order. It is simply an orthodox immortal family.

Although the cultivators' uniforms of Wuliang Sect are all crow-green*, the cut, materials, and embroidery are very different between those who are admitted as disciples and those who are registered as disciples, and there is a difference between the master's enrolled disciples and the elders' enrolled disciples, which can be distinguished at a glance, such as the one who came to greet them on the mountain is Xu Mao, a disciple who was enrolled by an elder.

(Those disciples who have been admitted are official disciples of WLS. Registered ones are unofficial)

Visitors who came to Yunding for the first time are always a little curious, and Xu Mao dutifully told them, mainly the two Impermanence, about the natural sights of Mount Shu, while expressing his admiration for Zhong Kui several times.

While walking along the greenstone path of Yunding, Xie Bi An gradually became silent and his brows were tightly locked.

When he had come to Diancang Peak a few years ago, he had developed some sense of familiarity with the place. He only thought it was the mountains and rivers of the world, where there is not much difference in the scenery, but this time when he came to Yunding, this feeling got even stronger. He could not help asking, "Master, when I was a child, did you ever bring me to Yunding?"

Zhong Kui said, "No."

"Not even when you were drunk?"

"Hmph, your master isn't that confused."

Xie Bi An looked at Zhong Kui, half-believing and muttered, "Then why do I feel like I've been here before..."

Xu Mao laughed, "Has little White Master seen some of the folk paintings of Yunding? It's everywhere."

"...Maybe."

Fan Wu She looked at Xie Bi An thoughtfully.

There was a sense of familiarity with the Zongxuan Sword Technique, and a sense of familiarity with Yunding. Could it be that some memories from his previous life really did linger?

After Xu Mao settled the three of them down, he explained, "Sect Leader Master originally wanted to greet Heaven Master personally, but recently, because of the matter of senior brother Meng, he as an old man has been sad and strained, and his health is not good, so I hope Heaven Master will bear with me."

Zhong Kui waved his hand, "There is no need to be polite. But when can I see him?"

"Sect Leader Master is hosting a private banquet tomorrow night for just a few old friends. At that time, this junior will come to fetch Heaven Master."
"Alright."

"Heaven Master and Immortal Sovereign Impermanence can move around Yunding as much as you like. If you have any requests, or if you want to go to places like the Mandarin Duck Pond, Lanxi Town, etc, just tell the disciples serving you. This junior will also be happy to serve you at any time."

After Xu Mao left, Xie Bi An looked around. The mansion was built on a cliff, and when the window is opened, it is as if you can wander through the sea of clouds. The place is quiet and elegant. There's a sense of seclusion when living alone in the courtyard.
