21 Guess What Eldest Senior Brother Said!

"That's not what I mean…" Liu Qingfeng hurriedly tried to explain.

"Senior brother, you've been closing yourself on the peak recently, so you might have no idea what's been going on recently.

"Master Xuan Xin from the small Leiyin Temple has arrived in Middle-Earth. By using the excuse of debating, he's trying to promote Dharma.

"Because of the great influence of Daoism, Buddhism has never stepped in Middle-Earth before, it has only prevailed in the western desert.

"However, Master Xuan Xin's eloquence is truly incredible. So far, no one could defeat him either in terms of debating or fighting.

"After facing the ten Saint Lands in Middle-Earth, he defeated five of them successively. Some saint families also joined the debate but they all still lost miserably.

"I heard today that Master Xuan Xin made a Senior Elder from the Saint Land of Qing Yun spit out blood during the debate, this caused an even bigger stir in Middle-Earth!" Even though Qingfeng said these slowly, but the look on his face was rather exaggerated.

Qingfeng looked at Changsheng, only to that Lu Changsheng still remained rather calm. Qingfeng was deeply impressed by his Eldest Senior Brother's equanimity.

"That's really something, but… do I have anything to do with it?" Lu Changsheng directly asked him.

Well…

Qingfeng couldn't answer the question immediately.

He was lost in his own thoughts.

Right… Doesn't it seem that Lu Changsheng had nothing to do with it?

However, soon after thinking this, Qingfeng put the connection together and reminded Lu Changsheng, "Senior brother, it is expected that Master Xuan Xin will keep challenging the rest of the saint lands. Within ten days to a month, he will come to Zenith Heaven.

"He will find a contemporary for the debate. In the entire Zenith Heaven, you're the only one who's capable of taking the challenge, Senior Brother.

"Forgive me for saying this, Senior Brother. But if you lose, then I'm afraid that Zenith Heaven will fall into disrepute, your name will also be stained with disgrace.

"In addition to losing both dignity and honor, the consequence to this can be even more severe.

"If Master Xuan Xin really defeats all the saint lands and Daoism loses, according to my dad, there will be a fierce fight between Daoism and Buddhism.

"Once the fight starts, the demons might avail this opportunity and strike at us, bringing disasters to all the lives in the world." Qingfeng explained in detail to tell Lu Changsheng how serious the consequences could be.

However, Lu Changsheng's focus was different. His center of attention wasn't on all lives of the world, nor was it the demons taking advantage of the fight. But he wondered why he had to be the one who took the challenge.

"Why me? Senior Sister Zi Yun is a better choice. Zenith Heaven is filled with outstanding disciples. There's also Jin Yang," Lu Changsheng hurriedly said.

A fight?

A fight for what?

Lu Changsheng preferred a contest to see who was slower in cultivation, or he could accept a challenge to see who could eat five steamed buns faster.

What was the point fighting?

Monks weren't supposed to fight!

"Fighting comes second. Debating, as the more important one, comes first. Senior Brother Jin Yang once fought against Master Xuan Xin, he lost to Master Xuan Xin's first move," Qingfeng said.

"Lost to the first move?" Lu Changsheng was astonished.

Jin Yang was one of the Immediate Disciples of the sect. Lu Changsheng met him once and knew how powerful his swordsmanship was. Whenever he exerted strength, it was as if a golden sun appeared behind his head, making him look rather extraordinary.

"That's right! It's unbelievable!

"Therefore, the entire Zenith Heaven is counting on you! No! The entire Daoist factions in Middle-Earth are counting on you!" Qingfeng said to Lu Changsheng in a serious tone.

"Counting on me?" Lu Changsheng's mind was blank.

I never made any promise. Why was Daoism counting on me?

"You don't know this, Senior Brother. But without exception, all of the cultivators who lost to Master Xuan Xin told him that Lu Changsheng from Zenith Heaven would be the one to defeat him, they placed all the blame on themselves for being too weak. They called you the Eldest Senior Brother in Daoism! You reign supreme in Daoism!

"Therefore, without doubt, Master Xuan Xin is going to have a debate with you. But I trust you, Senior Brother. In fact, the entire Middle-Earth has faith in you."

Liu Qingfeng looked rather proud and excited as he said this, whereas Lu Changsheng's face looked slightly gloomy.

"Is it bad… if I lose?" Lu Changsheng asked seriously.

"It's bad! It's very bad! The worst thing that happens is that if Master Xuan Xin chooses Zenith Heaven as the last place to challenge, and if you lose, then many people would blame Zenith Heaven for everything. The bad influence that emanates from this will be profound! It will probably remain an indelible stain forever!" Qingfeng answered. He wasn't joking at all.

"Since he embarrassed so many cultivators. Why has no one tried to kill him on his travels?" An idea suddenly occurred to Lu Changsheng.

Qingfeng looked very discouraged. "Master Xuan Xin is the incarnation of Buddha and was born with the best fortune. No one dares murder him, not even the demons.

"Also, he is very well protected. If anything happens to him, all the blame will be put onto Daoism.

"We're not afraid of Buddhism, of course. But once the fight initiates, the entire world will suffer. All cultivators will be condemned as sinners throughout the ages. In addition, all the Dao sects are too upright to do such a dirty deal," Qingfeng looked rather righteous as he said this.

Lu Changsheng sighed.

It was such a long sigh.

Lu Changsheng then nodded. His face looked expressionless as he didn't say anything.

He wasn't pretending to be mysterious right now, but he was actually totally speechless.

"Senior Brother, what do you think?" Qingfeng asked.

"I will take things as they come," answered Lu Changsheng.

What else could he say?

Could he surrender?

Could he give up?

Could he run away?

Master Xuan Xin wasn't here yet and Lu Changsheng didn't have a plan either.

"I get it." Liu Qingfeng nodded. "I'm leaving now, Senior Brother. You have a good rest. Xuan Xin isn't a threat to you, we all have faith in your strength!" After saying this, Liu Qingfeng left.

The palace became very quiet.

Only a useless Senior Brother was left alone here.

Lu Changsheng sighed once more.

At this moment, Lu Changsheng wasn't in the mood to refine pills nor create recipes.

His previous good mood had been completely ruined.

That damn bald guy!

Lu Changsheng swore in his mind.

At this time.

After leaving the palace.

According to Lu Changsheng's instruction, Liu Qingfeng gave each disciple a Glazed Diamond Pill after they finished working.

The disciples were all very curious about the efficacy of the pill.

At this time, Liu Qingfeng, in a rather mysterious way, opened his mouth, "I'll tell you all something. Will you keep it as a secret?"

His words immediately triggered their curiosity.

"We will! Go ahead!"

"Say it!"

Liu Qingfeng took a glance around and lowered his voice, "You guys know that Master Xuan Xin is having debates in Middle-Earth, right? I told Eldest Senior Brother about it, guess what he said!"

Liu Qingfeng looked very mystifying.

Instantly, the disciples' fatigue disappeared as their spirits rose.
