Several Moon Empress.

Cloud Glow Sect's position as the leader has changed.

Sect Master Hu is approaching the end of his life span and has resigned from his post to retire at home.

True Person Xuefeng, who was originally in charge of Fengxia Immortal City, serves as the new sect leader, coordinating and managing the affairs within the sect.

In addition, Cloud Glow Sect's mid- to high-level positions have been transferred to varying degrees.

Those who are interested can find that many key positions inside the door are transferred by True Lord Zixia's trusted monks, and they are handed over silently.

This means that the era when True Lord Yunlan was in power will soon be a thing of the past.

Lan Chang'an completely stayed out of the matter and watched Nascent Soul's massive change of power with a cold eye.

Nascent Soul True Lord is not a sage or sage, he can also have selfish motives. True Lord Zixia understands and agrees with Lan Chang'an's actions. This is conducive to running the sect and eliminating unstable factors.

Elder Xiang and Di Yan Jun are in a transcendent position in the sect and are not affected by this turmoil.

Strength is the foundation of everything. True Lord Zixia needs the top combat power of the fourth-level Sacred Beast to maintain the power of the sect.

"From this point of view, True Lord Yunlan Nascent Soul has little hope of returning after reconstruction. Even if it does come back, it cannot shake True Lord Zixia's status."

Lan Chang'an speculated that Fairy Zixia determined the specific status of dao companion through the [Life Soul Painting] in his hand, so he made this move.

However, in the past five or six years, True Lord Zixia has never shown True Lord Yunlan's [Life Soul Painting] to Lan Chang'an.

Cloud Glow Sect There are still monks out looking for clues, but their efforts are not as strong as before.

The position of suzerain was handed over not long ago.

Lan Chang'an was summoned by True Lord Zixia and went to Supreme Elder's cave to have a talk.

Zixia Peak Cave.

Lan Chang'an When he arrived, he found two people coming to the main hall of the cave.

The leader is an old man with gray hair who is old and depressed, who is none other than the predecessor Sect Master Hu.

Lan Chang'an discovered that Sect Master Hu's body was failing, and Law Power's decline was serious, and it no longer regained the heyday of the Golden Core Realm's overhaul.

"Elder Xiang is here."

Sect Master Hu bowed his hands, showing a humble and kind smile on his old wrinkled face.

Behind Sect Master Hu is a handsome man in white, who looks to be in his twenties and has a cultivation level of Foundation Establishment Late Stage.

"This is Hu Ang, a descendant of my Hu family, currently working at the Xuanfeng Hall."

Sect Master Hu took the initiative to introduce.

"Disciple has seen Elder Xiang."

Hu Ang has low eyebrows, is respectful, has a handsome appearance, and looks more comfortable.

Lan Chang'an nodded and exchanged a few words.

Sect Master Hu actually brought a disciple of the Foundation Establishment Realm over to visit True Lord Zixia, but he didn't know why.

After talking with each other, we learned that Hu Ang is an outstanding young member of the new generation of the Hu family, and High-Grade Spiritual Root has made great achievements not long ago.

Xuanfeng Hall, in the Cloud Glow Sect belongs to the scout and intelligence organization.

In the past two years, Hu Ang has shown extraordinary abilities. He first obtained key information about Great Snake Mountain and made unfavorable plans for the Cloud Glow Sect.

This information allowed Cloud Glow Sect to avoid considerable financial losses and casualties.

Secondly, half a year ago, Hu Ang uncovered three internal agents of the hostile forces in the mountain gate. One of them was Pseudo-Core True Person, who served as the deputy hall leader of the Xuanfeng Hall, which was extremely harmful.

After Sect Master Hu reported these two achievements, they attracted True Lord Zixia's attention and prepared to reward Hu Ang.

Lan Chang'an After learning the reason, he didn't feel relieved. This is human nature.

Sect Master Hu has very little longevity left. After abdicating, he has to make plans for his lineage and nominate key figures for the future.

It cannot be ruled out that Hu Ang is indeed excellent.

However, the two years of continuous great achievements may be the result of the promotion of Sect Master Hu, rather than relying solely on personal ability.

Buzz!

A ball of mist Zi Xia fell from the top of the hall, showing a hazy and beautiful figure.

"Seen Supreme Elder."

Lan Chang'an The three of them bowed and saluted. In front of outsiders, Lan Chang'an did not act like a senior sister.

Nascent Soul level aura faded away, True Lord Zixia wore Phoenix Hairpin on her head, wore a long purple skirt, stretched her neck and showed off her beauty, with a noble demeanor and a hint of careless laziness.

Hu Ang even knelt down to salute, not daring to look directly into Fairy Zixia's star-like eyes. The slim and beautiful purple skirt came into view, and his heartbeat accelerated slightly, unable to hide his surprise and admiration.

"No gift."

True Lord Zixia raised his hand and took a brief look at Hu Ang. The latter had a dignified appearance and outstanding talents, which made him feel pleasing to the eye.

Lan Chang'an and Sect Master Hu took their seats.

Hu Ang stood aside respectfully, not squinting.

After Fairy Zixia expressed condolences to Sect Master Hu's body, he then got to the point.

"Elder Xiang has been in this sect for decades and has never heard of a disciple. Today, are you interested in accepting Hu Ang as a disciple?"

True Lord Zixia turned his starry eyes and looked at Lan Chang'an with a smile.

"This boy's talents and talents are all Higher Vehicle. He has made great achievements in the past two years without relying on the elder Lineage. He is a rare good seedling."

After hearing True Lord Zixia's arrangement, Hu Ang stood aside respectfully, his expression slightly changed.

Sect Master Hu caressed the white beard gently, feeling a little moved.

According to the original plan, Hu Ang did not want the reward from True Lord Zixia, but instead became his disciple.

If you can embrace Supreme Elder's lap, with Hu Ang's qualifications and talents, and the background of Sect Master Hu's lineage, you will have no worries about achieving great success in the sect.

However, Fairy Zixia, as a female True Lord, basically does not accept male disciples.

Jiang Haoran is a direct descendant of his elder brother, with top-notch qualifications and appearance Divine Sense, which is considered a special situation.

If True Lord Zixia doesn't accept a disciple, Elder Xiang is indeed an option.

Elder Xiang is backed by fourth-level Sacred Beast and has a transcendent status in the sect, second only to True Lord Zixia, and possesses extraordinary Puppet skills.

Lan Chang'an's mind turned and he quickly understood the reason.

Sect Master Hu has devoted his whole life to the sect, and his hard work has yielded great results. Hu Ang is considered an outstanding disciple of the Cloud Glow Sect. True Lord Zixia does not want to accept a disciple, and it is difficult to refuse.

If Elder Xiang is allowed to accept a disciple, it will not only satisfy Sect Master Hu's wish, but also allow the direct lineage of this sect to merge with Elder Xiang's, increasing Xiang Dalong's sense of belonging.

The only thing that surprised Lan Chang'an was that Hu Ang had made great achievements based on his true ability. With the endorsement of Nascent Soul True Lord, it should not be a fraud.

"Hu Ang, let me ask you two questions."

Lan Chang'an did not refuse outright, his expression was serious and his eyes dropped, which made Hu Ang feel a mountain of pressure.

"Excuse me, elder." Hu Ang said with difficulty.

"Do you really want to become a disciple of a certain family?"

"Disciple..."

The smile on Hu Ang's face looked unnatural.

His goal of apprenticeship is True Lord Zixia. He admires him from the bottom of his heart and has no interest in Elder Xiang.

"Do you have the qualifications to make puppets?"

Before he could answer in words, Lan Chang'an asked a second question aggressively.

"This... disciple has never tried it before, so he shouldn't have outstanding qualifications for puppet refining."

Hu Ang saw that Elder Xiang did not want to accept him as his disciple, so he followed the tone and answered truthfully.

"Supreme Elder, it is obvious that Hu Ang is not a suitable disciple candidate for a certain family."

Lan Chang'an handed it over and reported it to True Lord Zixia.

"It doesn't matter, accepting a disciple and becoming a master requires fate, you can't force it."

True Lord Zixia's wishful thinking failed and he took a deep look at Elder Xiang.

Over the years, she has tried to further integrate Elder Xiang into the Cloud Glow Sect, enhance the latter's sense of belonging with Di Yan Jun, and strive to become her own person, but it has not been so smooth.

Elder Xiang Although I have a good relationship with her, I always feel like I am not really integrated into the sect and am more like an outsider watching the show.

Lan Chang'an said thoughtfully:

"Although a certain family has no master-disciple relationship with the Hu family, it does not prevent them from forming friendships. If Hu Daoyou doesn't mind the steward Xiao of this peak, he can marry a daughter of the Hu family."

"So good!"

Sect Master Hu's face glowed red and he happily agreed.

Back then, when Earth Rock Rat was promoted to Transformation Demon King, he had this idea in mind.

It's a pity that Xiao Qingshan and dao companion Si Lu have a very good relationship. They are relatively dedicated and have no idea of taking a concubine.

Now, Elder Xiang personally makes the decision, so the matter is simple.

Under the witness of True Lord Zixia, Lan Chang'an and Sect Master Hu reached an oral engagement.

Sect Master Hu selected a granddaughter of the Hu family with good qualifications and outstanding beauty, and married Xiao Qingshan as his equal wife dao companion.

As for the wishes of the parties concerned, Lan Chang'an and Sect Master Hu had no involvement.

In Lan Chang'an's view, allowing Xiao Qingshan to have more concubines is conducive to <Dragon-Phoenix Dual Cauldron Method>'s practice, and it is for his own good.

This marriage can also somewhat dispel True Lord Zixia's doubts.

"Today, this True Lord will make an exception and accept Hu Ang as Registered Disciple. Good things come in pairs."

After weighing the situation, True Lord Zixia finally agreed to accept Hu Ang as his disciple.

Even Registered Disciple is a special case.

Hu Ang As High-Grade Spiritual Root, his cultivation speed is faster than those with the same qualifications, so he can excel.

In addition to the rewards for meritorious service and Sect Master Hu's request, True Lord Zixia also found this person a good match.

"Disciple Hu Ang, pay homage to Master."

Hu Ang looked shocked, overjoyed, and immediately knelt down to worship.

Lan Chang'an expressed congratulations at the right time, "Supreme Elder has accepted a good disciple, I am very happy and congratulated."

"Hu Ang, you are a registered male disciple, not suitable for permanent residence Zixia Peak. If you become a true elixir in the future, I True Lord promise to officially take you under my disciple."

True Lord Zixia encouraged.

Every additional True Alchemy cultivator is a solid pillar for the Cloud Glow Sect.

"Thank you Master for the gift."

Hu Ang Three kowtows and nine bows, my forehead is bruised and swollen, and I shed tears of gratitude. This is a lesson from my sincerity.

Seeing this scene, True Lord Zixia smiled, feeling good about this guy.

After a simple apprenticeship ceremony, Lan Chang'an and Sect Master Hu left the fourth-order main peak.

Hu Ang felt excited, clenched his fists, and took a deep breath.

"The first step of returning to the sect has been successfully completed."

"Sure enough, neither Ziyan nor Xiang Dalong saw any flaws! As long as they act according to the plan, everything lost in the past will be recovered one by one."

Hu Ang Although seemingly excited, his heart felt calm.

Looking back at the familiar Zixia Peak.

There, the figure that haunts him is also his once beloved dao companion.

Now, he starts with a new identity, rises in the familiar sect, returns to the top step by step, and reunites with his former dao companion.

Zixia Peak, cave palace.

True Lord Zixia sat quietly for a long time, looking downcast, and turned over his hands to take out a scroll of gray and white figures.

The man in the feather robe and cloak outlined on the scroll has a dim and dim soul, just like a dead statue.

Three years ago, she confirmed the fall of dao companion. True Lord Yunlan Soul Lamp of sect Ancestral Shrine had long been transferred.

The death of True Lord Yunlan has not been announced so far, leaving a glimmer of hope for the sake of the stability of the sect.

In this way, the hostile forces and Elder Xiang's main pet will be wary.

If the identity of the widow is confirmed, the big outside forces and Nascent Soul Old Monsters will feel that she is easy to bully as a female True Lord is in charge of the sect, and may collude with Elder Xiang to endanger the foundation of the sect.

After returning to Green Phoenix Peak, Lan Chang'an declared to be in retreat.

Next, he teamed up with Puppet Master Wei to fully implement the perfect Strange Spirit Puppet plan.

One year later.

Green Phoenix Peak, underground Secret Hall.

A Five-Colored Peacock with wings spread several feet, gorgeous and noble, vividly displayed, suspended in mid-air by silk threads.

Lan Chang'an and Green-Armored Puppet stood on both sides, lifted the two open toes of the peacock high, and performed precise sutures on the outer skin of the last lower limb.

"You can try to start."

After a while, Puppet Master Wei glanced at Lan Chang'an, who was sweating on his forehead.

In order to practice Lan Chang'an's puppet refining skills, the last few steps were performed by the former, while Puppet Master Wei assisted and gave pointers.

"Okay."

Lan Chang'an opened the abdominal sac of Five-Colored Peacock and inserted eight pieces of hard-refined high-grade Puppet Crystal.

Phew! Snap!

Strange Spirit Peacock Puppet in mid-air opened his sapphire-like eyes, his wings vibrated, and a ball of five-color light surrounded him.

A powerful spiritual pressure rose within the Secret Hall, exuding a trace of the bloodline of ancient creatures.

This aura is similar to Five-Colored Peacock from Heaven Grade Bloodline back then, and is more powerful, but it seems violent and disorderly, chaotic and impure.

Click!

As Strange Spirit Peacock vibrated its wings, several five-color light blades flashed in the air, easily cutting off the third-order silk wrapped around the noble body.

The five-color light blade did not stop, forming a small brilliant storm, emitting a dangerous aura, enough to kill Late Core Formation Overhaul.

"Stop."

Lan Chang'an cast Puppet Control Art, and Strange Spirit Peacock Puppet in mid-air gathered its spiritual light. With a graceful posture, the peacock opened its tail and flew back and forth in the Secret Hall.

"Yes, the quality of this puppet is close to the fourth-level Puppet, which is even better than the old man who was in Gutian Immortal City back then."

Puppet Master Wei showed an expression of appreciation and reached out to touch the tough feathers of Strange Spirit Peacock. Every inch of material on it was designed or made by him personally.

"I wonder how much Five-Colored Forbidden-Breaking Spirit Light of Five-Colored Peacock has been inherited by this puppet."

Lan Chang'an's hand Method Formula changed.

Five-color Strange Spirit Peacock opened its mouth and made a clear sound, then spit out a five-color light beam.

Phew!

Wherever the five-color beam of light went, the air was distorted and the light and dark were uncertain, and it went straight to the wall Restriction where Secret Chamber was.

Lan Chang'an popped up two third-level mid-grade Golden Light Defense Talisman in advance, but they were easily wiped out by the five-color beam, and were instantly dimmed and destroyed.

Uh-huh!

Immediately afterwards, Restriction on the wall, which exceeded the third-level limit, trembled suddenly and dimmed rapidly. In the end, it failed to hold on, and was left by the five-color beam of light, leaving a flat, black hole about a foot deep.

The power of the five-color beam also collapsed and disappeared at this time.

"The effect of Five-Colored Spirit Light exceeds that of the third-order top-grade Five-Colored Peacock. However, it should not be as good as the fourth-order Five-Colored Peacock, otherwise it can easily wipe out Nascent Soul Early Stage's aura Restriction."

Lan Chang'an made a rough guess and came to a preliminary conclusion.

Two days later.

Lan Chang'an and Puppet Master Wei conducted a comprehensive inspection on Five-Colored Peacock and confirmed that there were no major flaws and some minor problems could be optimized and adjusted later.

During this period, Five-Colored Peacock briefly fought with Di Yan Jun in Tier 4 Illusion Formation, but was suppressed by the latter and did not take any advantage.

Lan Chang'an has evaluated Strange Spirit Peacock Puppet, and its overall strength is stronger than the quasi-fourth-order Green-Armored Puppet that was just obtained that year.

In the face of Nascent Soul Cultivator that relies on Law Treasure Emmanuel, Talisman Restriction, it may have a good check and balance effect.

The shortcoming is that Strange Spirit Peacock and Five-Colored Spirit Light are fake after all and do not achieve the ideal power.

This is also related to the manufacturing experience of Strange Spirit Puppet, and the craftsmanship is not perfect.

The advantages of Five-Colored Peacock's high mobility have been inherited.

The materials of Strange Spirit Peacock are of good grade, including the fourth-grade Dragon Bone Frame, which has a speed comparable to Nascent Soul True Lord when flying at full power.

Of course, this level of powerful Puppet, including Green-Armored Puppet, consumes very scary amounts of energy and places high demands on Puppet Crystal.

The high-end Puppet Crystal used by Lan Chang'an costs more than tens of thousands of Spirit Stone per piece of material. Not only is it financial resources, but it also requires smelting Divine Sense and the power to refine it.

Fighting is equivalent to burning Spirit Stone all the time.

The combat cost-effectiveness is very low, far less cost-effective than the fourth-order Spirit Pet.

Therefore, even if the high-grade Puppet falls into the hands of a low-level monk, it may not be able to afford the expense.
