151: Chapter 151 Rebuilding the Glory of Divine Talisman Mountain is Our Duty!

Chen Xuan's mind was racing.

He had never used his brain like this in his entire life.

A powerful Late Core Formation Stage Cultivator had come to their dilapidated place for no reason, knew the history of the Shenfu Mountain like the back of his hand, and spoke of it with such regret.

What did this mean?

It meant that this Senior likely had some connection to their Shenfu Mountain!

Perhaps he was a descendant left behind by an Ancestral Master, or someone who had obtained the Legacy of an Ancestral Master, and had returned specifically to find his roots!

The more he thought about it, the more Chen Xuan felt it was possible!

Otherwise, there was no way to explain why such a powerful Cultivator would lower himself to come here.

The way he looked at Tang Xun was already like looking at a long-lost relative.

Excitement, admiration, and a hint of cautious anticipation.

Senior, are you... are you...

Chen Xuan wanted to ask, but didn't dare to be too direct, fearing he might offend the other party.

Tang Xun watched his conflicted expression—wanting to ask but not daring to—and was inwardly overjoyed.

This was exactly the effect he wanted.

Let the other party fill in the blanks and convince himself.

He neither admitted nor denied it, but simply sighed again, walked to the talisman desk, reached out a finger, and gently brushed over the pile of ashes on the desk.

The Talisman Way is vast and profound; a hair's breadth of difference leads to a thousand miles of error.

He said this in the tone of someone who had been through it all, filled with a sense of vicissitudes.

If the heart is not calm, the Qi will not be smooth; if the Qi is not smooth, the power will not reach its target. Sect Head Chen, when you were making the talisman just now, your heart was in chaos.

Chen Xuan shuddered, as if enlightened by a sudden realization!

He had indeed been restless just now, his mind filled with the future of the Sect and his own approaching end, making it impossible to calm down.

This Senior had actually identified the root cause of his failure just by glancing at the ashes!

What terrifying insight and mastery of the Talisman Way this was!

Chen Xuan now had no doubts about Tang Xun's identity.

This was definitely one of his own! And a supreme expert in the Talisman Way!

He could no longer hold back, and with a thud, he knelt directly in front of Tang Xun.

Senior! Please, save the Shenfu Mountain!

He cried and shouted with snot and tears, no longer looking like a Sect Head at all.

Junior Chen Xuan has been in charge of the Shenfu Mountain for sixty years, watching the Sect decline day by day, yet I am powerless to stop it! I have failed our ancestors, and I have failed the Legacy of the Shenfu Mountain!

This old bone of mine doesn't have many years left to live. It doesn't matter if I die, but the Daoist lineage of the Shenfu Mountain cannot end in my hands!

Senior, since you have a connection with our Shenfu Mountain, please have mercy, and for the sake of the Ancestral Master, give us a hand!

As he spoke, he kowtowed repeatedly, making the floor of the main hall resound with each thud.

Zhang Ruowei, who was following behind Tang Xun, was completely dumbfounded.

Her mouth was wide open, unable to close for a long time.

She couldn't understand how things had developed into this state.

A moment ago, this old man was still indifferent, looking like he wanted to drive them away.

The next moment, he was kneeling on the ground, crying and begging Tang Xun to be their savior.

In between, Tang Xun had only said a few ambiguous words and put on a show of being profound!

Looking at Tang Xun's compassionate expression, as if he really felt regret for the Shenfu Mountain, she had only one thought in her mind.

This man was too good at acting!

If he were in a mortal theater troupe, he would definitely be the undisputed star!

Tang Xun looked at Chen Xuan, who was kneeling on the ground with tears streaming down his face, and nodded in satisfaction.

The fish had taken the bait.

But he didn't agree immediately; instead, he reached out and helped Chen Xuan up.

Sect Head Chen, please get up quickly, what are you doing?

His tone carried a hint of 'difficulty' and 'hesitation'.

I am just a Loose Cultivator, used to being a free spirit, and I am afraid I cannot shoulder such a heavy responsibility.

He was playing hard to get.

The more he refused, the tighter Chen Xuan would cling to him.

Sure enough, Chen Xuan grabbed Tang Xun's hand tightly and refused to get up.

Senior, please don't be modest! You are the destined benefactor of our Shenfu Mountain, sent by the Ancestral Master to save us!

As long as you agree, from today on, you will be the Grand Elder of our Shenfu Mountain! No! You will be the new Sect Head!

This old bone of mine is even willing to be a gatekeeping Disciple for you!

To keep hold of Tang Xun, his straw of hope, Chen Xuan had given up everything.

He didn't care about the position of Sect Head at all.

As long as he could make the Shenfu Mountain shine again, he could die without regrets.

Seeing his eager expression, Tang Xun knew he couldn't refuse any longer, or it would seem too fake.

He pondered for a moment, a look of 'struggle' appearing on his face, which finally turned into a long sigh.

Very well.

He said this in a heavy tone, as if he had made a great decision.

Since I have encountered this, perhaps it is destiny.

He supported Chen Xuan's shoulders, his gaze becoming incomparably firm, as if flames were burning within them.

The Shenfu Mountain is the orthodox Sect of the Talisman Way; its Legacy must never be cut off here!

Sect Head Chen, rest assured. From today on, I, Wang Debiao, am a member of the Shenfu Mountain!

He paused, his voice suddenly rising, echoing endlessly in the main hall, filled with righteous energy.

To rebuild the glory of the Shenfu Mountain is our duty!

These words were spoken with resounding force and impassioned fervor.

Chen Xuan listened with boiling blood, trembling with excitement.

He seemed to have already seen the scene of the Shenfu Mountain rising again under Tang Xun's leadership, returning to the pinnacle of the Central Continent.

Good! Good! Good!

He said the word 'good' three times in a row, tears flowing uncontrollably.

With these words from you, Senior, I, Chen Xuan, can die without regrets!

He wiped away his tears and respectfully performed the great ceremony of a Disciple paying respects to his master before Tang Xun.

Disciple Chen Xuan pays respects to the Grand Elder!

From now on, everyone in the Shenfu Mountain will follow the Grand Elder's orders!

Tang Xun calmly accepted his bow.

The plan was a success!

He was now the legitimate Grand Elder of the Shenfu Mountain, the de facto supreme ruler.

The whole process had gone so smoothly that even he found it a bit unbelievable.

Looking at the excited Chen Xuan, he added a sentence silently in his heart.

To rebuild the glory of the Shenfu Mountain is our duty.

And then, turn all the Sect's treasures into my own.
