Chapter 197 is the former head of Qingxuan Sect
"It's indeed ingenious. When I entered the Flame Cloud Realm that day, I saw the elder leading your Tianyin Valley. The seven-stringed harp he was using was crystal clear, and it was carved with a very unique inverted pear blossom pattern. Was it made from a whole piece of spiritual jade?"
"You mean Elder Si's natal magic weapon? It's indeed made of spiritual jade, but it's not ordinary spiritual jade, it's made of thousand-year-old cold jade.
Thousand-year-old cold jade is hard to come by, and it took our Tianyin Valley’s ancestors a lot of effort to find such a large piece.
It took a lot of effort to carve out the cavity and make the body of the instrument.
The strings on it are made of silk from thousand-year-old ice silkworms and hundreds of other materials, which can ensure that they will not rot or break for tens of thousands of years.
Moreover, one end of the string can be removed and used as a silver thread. Judging from Elder Si's cultivation level, he can almost strangle a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage instantly!
When the zither was made, the ancestor also used a piece of cold jade left over from digging out the zither's cavity to make a jade flute.
I heard that it is also engraved with inverted pear blossoms. Although it is not made of the same materials as a lyre, it is also a first-class musical instrument. It is said that there is a mechanism inside that can play out silver threads like a lyre.
But the flute is nowhere to be found now."
Jiang Xue sighed with a tone full of regret.
Leng Zhuxin didn't expect it to be so smooth. She just started and Jiang Xue told her about the jade flute.
A hint of surprise appeared on his face: "How could such a valuable magical instrument disappear?"
"I'm not particularly clear about this. Senior Sister should know more."
Jiang Xue shook her head and turned to look at Lu Yueshuang who had been silent.
"Senior Sister, why is our sect's Li Yue Di missing?"
Lu Yueshuang first looked helplessly at Jiang Xue who was unable to hold back her words, then turned to look at Leng Zhuxin: "Fellow Daoist Leng, do you like to listen to stories?"
There was a hint of probing in Lu Yueshuang's tone, but Leng Zhuxin remained calm and composed: "I really like to hear it, but if it involves Senior Sister Lu from Tianyin Valley, it's okay if I can't say it."
“There’s nothing inconvenient to say. The Liyue Flute was originally the life-saving magical weapon of another elder of our sect.
However, the elder betrayed the sect because of a man and almost went astray. He fled the valley with Li Yuedi and disappeared without a trace.
The disciples of Tianyin Valley have also searched outside over the years, but have found no information. If Fellow Daoist Leng sees a jade flute similar to Elder Tongsi's Li Yueqin in the future, he can send it back to our Tianyin Valley.
We at Tianyin Valley will definitely reward you handsomely."
Lu Wushuang briefly recounted the story of that year, summing it up in just a few sentences.
Leng Zhuxin nodded without any guilt: "If I am lucky enough to get that jade flute, I will definitely find a chance to go to Tianyin Valley to find Senior Sister Lu.
I just wonder what level of cultivation the elder who betrayed Tianyin Valley had when he left the sect?"
"She had the cultivation level of a spirit being transformed, but the old ancestor destroyed most of her strength and injured her heart meridian. If she hadn't had the opportunity, she would have passed away. The flute is probably in her burial place.
Given that elder's personality, he would definitely not give it to anyone else."
When Lu Wushuang mentioned the elder, his expression was not good and his tone was not good either.
Leng Zhu understood what was going on and pretended to be curious before asking, "A cultivator who is valued by a Spiritual Transformation Elder must be quite good, right? Could it be that the two of them have already gone into seclusion?"
Lu Wushuang snorted coldly after hearing this, "Hmph, impossible, that man is already dead, and if he were still alive, he would definitely not watch her go astray.
You should have heard of that man's name, the former leader of the Qingxuan Sect."
"!!!"
Leng Zhuxin was completely shocked. "The former leader of Qingxuan Sect? The master of the current leader!?"
"Yes, it's him. Jun Ze, the former head of Qingxuan Sect and the master of Headmaster Gu.
In the past, our Tianyin Valley and Qingxuan Sect had a good relationship, and many disciples of the two sects were friends. One of the elders was a childhood sweetheart of Junze, who was the head disciple at the time.
At that time, both sects thought that they would become Taoist partners in the future, but they didn't expect that Jun Ze would inherit the position of sect leader.
The leader of Qingxuan Sect was not allowed to marry, and the elder was unwilling to accept this and made a big fuss. He attacked Qingxuan Sect and injured many disciples. He insisted on forcing Sect Leader Junze to go with her, which led to the strained relationship between the two sects.
Later, Sect Leader Junze and many of his predecessors died while repairing the barrier, and that elder went mad, searching everywhere for a way to revive Sect Leader Junze."
Lu Yueshuang didn't say the rest, but Leng Zhuxin understood it in her heart.
I'm afraid that the elder turned to evil and betrayed Tianyin Valley just because he wanted to resurrect her master.
Gu Yanhuai asked his disciples to try not to conflict with Tianyin Valley because he felt guilty towards Tianyin Valley.
Leng Zhuxin felt relieved when he knew that the pink-robed monk had betrayed Tianyin Valley.
As for the relationship between the pink-clothed female cultivator and her master, that has nothing to do with her.
No matter what happened between them before, it was the pink-clothed female cultivator who first thought of taking over her body.
Even though what Lu Yueshuang said could not be fully believed, it did make Leng Zhuxin feel that the pink-clothed female cultivator was quite paranoid.
There was no great love in his heart, he only thought about love affairs between men and women, and it was his own fault that he ended up in such a situation.
No wonder Patriarch Sang Laiyue said that it didn’t matter even if a conflict occurred.
Leng Zhuxin had a good impression of Jiang Xue and Lu Yueshuang, so she asked a few more questions about Qingxuan Sect and Tianyin Valley.
Lu Yueshuang also answered them one by one.
“There is actually no feud between our Tianyin Valley and Qingxuan Sect. It’s just that that elder injured a disciple of Qingxuan Sect, and our ancestor lost a disciple. In addition, Elder Si has a good relationship with that elder.
Some people in the sect have complaints about the Qingxuan Sect because of this.
Many elders of Tianyin Valley died along with Sect Leader Junze back then.
Tianyin Valley closed down due to heavy losses in strength, and the two sects gradually drifted apart.
The valley has been opened in the past few years. In fact, during my training, my master and the head of the sect both reminded me that if I encounter a disciple of Qingxuan Sect in danger, I can help him while protecting myself.
Back then, alas, it was actually because one of the elders had let Qingxuan Sect down.
Her affair with Sect Leader Junze shouldn't have involved ordinary disciples."
Lu Yueshuang said this and glanced at the Qingxuan Sect disciples sitting elsewhere.
They didn't come over because Leng Zhuxin was with the people from Tianyin Valley, but their eyes were kind when they looked at the disciples of Tianyin Valley.
