"Hidden Breath Stone?" Qin Ye thought for a moment and said, "I remember that one month ago, there was a record of someone redeeming the Hidden Breath Stone at the exchange office of Wanhe Tower Trading Hall. I will send a message to Elder Wu and ask about the exchange. Who is he?" After saying that, he took out a jade plaque and sent a message.

Not long after, there was a response from Peak Master Qin Ye’s jade sign.

Gan Jing asked Peak Master: "Have you found it?"

Peak Master Qin Ye nodded, "I'm sure, it's the disciple named Wang Youyi who redeemed it."

Yue Dayou frowned angrily and slapped the table hard, "His grandma stole things under our noses. He is really brave."

The five peak masters were each thinking something at this time, and their faces looked heavy.

"Check, we must check this person carefully to see who introduced him to the door and who arranged for him to guard the tower..." Master Qiu Jinfeng said.

Qin Ye was not happy now. This Wang Youyi entered Curse Pattern Peak. This old man was clearly targeting him again, "Master Qiu Peak, what are you implying? Why don't you say it clearly."

"What did I allude to? Was what I said wrong? Shouldn't this person be investigated?" Master Qiu Jin looked righteous.

"..." Qin Ye was speechless, unable to refute for a moment. He sighed softly, straightened his back, looked proud and upright and was not afraid of the shadow, turned around and clasped his fists towards the headmaster, and said: "Headmaster, this Wang Youyi is ours A disciple of Cursed Pattern Peak, I only let him guard the tower after he passed various tests. The procedures are in compliance with the sect's regulations. However, I know people are not wise, and I have failed to supervise and neglect my duties, so I voluntarily went to the Law Enforcement Hall to cooperate with the investigation."

In fact, everyone sitting here knows that the inner disciple named Wang Youyi entered the sect with the purpose of going after Gan Jia No. 04. They don't know if there are any accomplices inside, but it is said that it was Master Qin Yefeng who collaborated with outsiders. They really didn't believe that he had stolen Gan Jia No. 04, but the situation was serious and an investigation was inevitable. Since he voluntarily cooperated with the investigation and the rules were the same, no one sitting here said anything. Qiu Jin usually has some conflicts of interest with Qin Ye, so it is normal for him to find trouble.

Lin Jingshu pressed her temples, then said with a serious expression: "The system of tower guards should be revised. At the same time, the defensive measures of the forbidden tower must be strengthened, and the exchange records of some rare resources must also be managed and recorded."

"Yes, Headmaster." The five peak masters responded.

In fact, their guess was correct. The inner disciple named Wang Youyi was disguised as the man in black hood. In order to get the old guy's throat cartilage, he infiltrated Tianzong Pavilion and showed off his talent. He successfully entered the inner gate and passed various tests to become a tower guard. Then he secretly searched for a way to break the restriction. After mastering the information in the tower, It took five years to obtain the items in Gan Jia Zero 4.

While arranging the defense work, an old man's voice came from outside the hall.

"Junior brother! Junior brother Lin!"

Hearing this, Lin Jingshu stood up suddenly and walked towards the door of the hall in disbelief, "Senior brother? Is senior brother back?"

Ma Chen, Yue Dayou, and Qiu Jin stood up and asked, "Why does this voice sound so familiar?"

"Uncle Huang, is Uncle Huang back?"

"Oh my god, I've been away for so long and I'm finally back!"

I saw an old Taoist with white eyebrows and a tall and thin young man hurriedly walking in from outside the hall.

The old Taoist looked excited, his eyes were shining, and he shouted repeatedly: "Junior Brother Lin! Junior Brother Lin, I am finally back!"

When the two saw each other, they were both stunned.

Lin Jingshu saw that the old Taoist had a thin and slender face, a wide forehead with deep lines that looked weathered, two white eyebrows hanging down on his shoulders, and a head of white hair that was slightly messy. It was different from the impression he had of the towering heaven, the round pavilion, the white eyebrows drooping on the shoulders, and his bright and energetic eyes. The extraordinary Senior Brother Huang couldn't stick to anything.

He frowned and asked eagerly: "Senior Brother Huang, why are you like this? Where have you been in the past thousand years? If it weren't for your life soul lamp that is still on, Junior Brother, I would have thought..."

The old Taoist with white eyebrows looked at the slender and tall young man in front of him. He was wearing a gray wide robe that could not hide his strong physique. His neat bun was tied in a silver white lotus hair crown. His facial features were clear and deep, and his eyebrows were like swords. It flew diagonally into a few strands of black hair under the temples.

"You, you are my Junior Brother Lin?"

The young man nodded with a smile, "Yes, I am Jingshu!"

Ding Yu, the twenty-third headmaster of Tianzong Pavilion, has three disciples. The first disciple Zhong Ji is in retreat, the second disciple Huang Zheng is the white-browed old Taoist, and the third disciple Lin Jingshu is now the headmaster.

Old Taoist Huang Zheng looked at Lin Jingshu's appearance, as if time and space had returned to ten thousand years ago, "You, what do you look like?"

Lin Jingshu touched his face, smiled, and said: "It's a long story. I'll talk to senior brother slowly about it later. Come on, senior brother, please take a seat."

Only then did he notice the young man behind Huang Zheng and asked, "Who is this little fellow Taoist..."

Old Taoist Huang Zheng smiled and introduced: "He is the disciple I took in during my travels. His name is Xu Zhou."

Hearing what his master said, Xu Zhou clasped his fists and bowed respectfully, "Xu Zhou has met Master Lin!"

Lin Jingshu looked at this young man, who was in the late stage of the third level of freedom, nodded and said with a smile: "Senior brother has accepted a good disciple for my sect!"

Hearing this, a trace of guilt appeared on Huang Zheng's face and he shook his head, "Hey! It's embarrassing to say that he has been dragged down by me over the years. Otherwise, his cultivation would not be like this!"

Xu Zhou hurriedly clasped his fists and said: "Master, disciple and..."

Before he could finish speaking, Huang Zheng waved his hand to stop him and said, "Let's not talk about this anymore. Now that we are back, my master and apprentice will work together to make up for the wasted time."

The atmosphere was a little sad. Lin Jingshu could probably guess the hardship of the two people's trip, and comforted: "It's good to be able to go home safely. Come on, senior brother, let me introduce to you the master of Gan Jingyu of Zhurong Peak and the Curse Pattern Peak. The master of Qin Ye Peak."

Three of the five peak masters have not changed, and two of them are unknown to Huang Zheng. It is normal for sect peak leaders and elders to change. They either leave or die.

Huang Zheng raised his hands and greeted the two peak masters. Gan Jingyu and Qin Ye hurriedly returned the greetings and politely called out, "Master Huang."

After a brief polite exchange of greetings, everyone returned to the daily routine of the sect.

After the meeting dispersed, Lin Jingshu called his disciple Sikong Xihua and asked him to take Xu Zhou to get acquainted with Tianzong Pavilion. He and his senior brother went to the top of a mountain that they were familiar with.

Looking at the beautiful scenery of Tianzong Pavilion with "a panoramic view of the mountains and small mountains", Huang Zheng sighed and said: "It feels so good to be home!"

Hearing this, Lin Jingshu chuckled and placed the Maple Bamboo wine that he had collected for many years on the table. Then the two of them sat in the Youyuan Pavilion and drank the old wine and talked about their adventures.
