The old man wanted them to go to Bu Ri Peak. Although the route was different from where Xie Yuze wanted to go, the general direction was the same.

"That old man is probably the retired old man Qingfeng. He actually died in this battle."

Xie Yuze's face looked a little solemn. Buri Peak actually did not belong to any righteous sect. It could not even be called a house number. It was just a residence.

Ruan Shiheng asked with some curiosity: "Is he famous?"

The plot given by the system only told him that there was such a thing, but he was actually not very clear about the details.

"He is a respected senior who once..."

Xie Yuze told him what he knew while he was on the way. He and Old Man Qingfeng were not from the same era. When he became famous at a young age, Old Man Qingfeng had already retired for several years.

He was not in seclusion, but had no choice but to do so.

He is an alchemist who once belonged to the Yunmu School. He is also a famous genius and his elixirs are hard to come by.

"In the battle at Xuanwei Mountain, he refined the forbidden elixir to save the people, which cost him a hundred years of skills. His cultivation level regressed, and more importantly, his spiritual roots were contaminated. He will never be able to refine elixirs again in his life, so he announced that he would close his furnace."

Alchemists practice alchemy as their path, and if they close the furnace, they will undoubtedly end their own path. They will be unable to practice anymore and can only rely on their own magic power to waste time and wait for death.

"Since you can no longer practice, are you just going to seclude yourself?"

Ruan Shiheng asked again, but Xie Yuze paused for a moment and remained silent.

Seeing this, Ruan Shiheng also understood what he had not said, and said: "It seems that you righteous people are full of benevolence and morality, but in fact it is just like this. Even if he is doing this for the people of the world, an alchemist who can no longer make pills is just a useless abandoned child to you."

Although what Ruan Shiheng said was blunt and unpleasant to the ear, it had to be said that that was reality, or rather, reality was much more cruel than that.

Elder Qingfeng did not choose to retire at that time. Instead, he stayed in the sect for a while, and later announced that he had no connection with the Yunmu Sect anymore. He bought the Buri Peak and settled there.

There are rumors that he was criticized by his sect after he could no longer make pills, and perhaps the main reason was the grudge with the leader of the Yunmu Sect.

"The reason why the Yunmu Sect became a well-known alchemy sect was mostly because of him. However, the sect was unkind and gradually became deserted and no longer as it used to be."

As Xie Yuze spoke, there was something complicated in his eyes, not because of the change in his human nature, but because Ruan Shiheng still regarded him as a righteous person.

His master had long considered him a traitor who had turned into a demon cultivator. Now, probably no one in the world believed that he was still a Taoist cultivator when he thanked Yuze. And yet, the person in front of him, who had seen him awaken and turn into a demon, said these words so lightly.

“I am no longer a Taoist.”

Xie Yuze didn't know what kind of mood he was in, nor did he know why he said this, but he was definitely looking forward to Ruan Shiheng's answer.
