Chapter 304: 302. Zhantian Qingxuan’s Old Acquaintance (3/4)
Lu Ye clasped his hands together and slowly bowed.
To express his gratitude!
This was his favorite sentence to hear, as it fulfilled his wish.
"I’ll see you off."
Saying this, Wen Ping put down his bowl and chopsticks and stood up.
Lu Ye nodded and smiled, "To be seen off by Sect Leader Wen, how fortunate for Lu Ye."
Wen Ping did not respond, that flattery...
Was somewhat satisfying!
Because Wen Ping stood up, everyone else also stood up. After spending so much time with Lu Ye, they were considered friends—even if no one would believe it.
Can a Body Refining Realm and a Half-Step Divine Profound be friends?
Since they were friends, it was right to see him off.
"Sect Leader Wen’s food here makes me drool every time I smell it. Now that I’m leaving, I’m afraid we won’t be meeting any time soon. By the way..." Saying this, Lu Ye took out a name card from his pocket, presented it with both hands to Wen Ping, "Sect Leader Wen, if you can come to Zimo Lake, you’re welcome to visit our Biyue Family."
"Hmm."
Wen Ping nodded and put away the name card.
At the kitchen door, Biyue Yi was standing there and quickly bowed as he saw Wen Ping coming down.
He didn’t dare to rely on the status of the Young Clan Leader of the Biyue Family, after all, he was eager to join the Immortal Sect like a madman. If it weren’t for the need to return for orders, he’d want to stay on.
As they reached the foot of the Thousand Layers, everyone waved goodbye.
There wasn’t much reluctance, but parting is always bittersweet.
Biyue Piaoling, however, didn’t even come to say goodbye; who knows where he went.
As he watched Lu Ye and the other rider disappear into Cangwu City, Wen Ping turned around to walk towards Yunlan Mountain.
Just as he was about to turn, he heard someone whispering.
"Qin Shan, give me a bowl of rice later."
"No problem."
"Young Master, you can have mine too."
Without looking, Wen Ping knew it was Qin Shan, Qin Mo, and Miao Yin speaking.
Although Qin Shan was now an elder of the Immortal Sect, he was still ultimately a member of the Qin Family. Qin Mo remained the Young Master!
Miao Yin was much the same.
Wen Ping immediately spoke, "Qin Mo, remember, you’re now just like everyone else, a disciple of the Immortal Sect. If you say such things again, next time you won’t eat."
"Sect Leader, I was wrong..."
Qin Mo immediately admitted defeat.
Which caused Yang Lele and the others beside him to burst into laughter.
Especially Yang Lele, who laughed the hardest because Qin Mo had laughed at him quite a bit these past two days too.
A laugh for a laugh!
...
Outside Cangwu City.
An old man rode a red horse backwards, slowly heading towards Cangwu City. The horse was peculiar, not resembling a Feng Liu horse nor different from Half-Faced Golden Armor or ordinary horses much, but completely different from normal horses. Red and white spots covered its entire body, making it look like a dalmatian.
If you looked closely, you would find those spots are not skin and flesh, but a layer of scales, looking like battle armor draped over the horse.
At the same time, there was a palm-length horn on its forehead.
Very bizarre.
Seeing such a strange horse heading into the city, the people of Cangwu cleaning the battle debris all took notice, most were curious.
But compared to the hundred-meter-long Giant Demon, this horse seemed insignificant.
No one would fear it.
When the horse stopped before an old man pushing a cart out, the rider suddenly turned around, "Is this Cangwu City?"
"It is."
The old man replied.
Before he could move away, he saw the rider suddenly sit up straight, squeeze his legs, and charge into Cangwu City. The city guards on both sides had no time to stop him.
"This old man, rushing to his death!"
The city guard who ate some dust behind couldn’t help but scold.
At this moment, people from Mitian Sect carrying a large stone towards the city outside casually glanced at the horse, paused with panic in their hearts.
"Is that Black and White Impermanence?"
"Yes... I’ve seen this horse before. When a powerful figure from Celestial Academy visited Sect Leader, I saw his Black and White Impermanence closely."
"Could it be someone even stronger has come to trouble Immortal Sect?"
"Perhaps."
"Then aren’t we about to be freed?"
A few with Upper Profound Realm were delighted and stood there chatting.
A city guard walked over directly and scolded, "Can you hurry up? What are you talking about? Still Upper Profound Realm, not even done half of what I’ve done all morning."
Thus, a scene appeared where a Body Refining Seventh Layer cultivator was scolding Upper Profound Realm cultivators.
No matter how you looked at it, telling anyone, it was nothing short of humiliation.
One Upper Profound Realm cultivator wanted to get angry, but was immediately restrained by his companion.
"Endure!"
"If you don’t want to die, you must continue enduring."
The person reluctantly nodded and continued carrying stones towards the city outside.
As they left, the city guard sighed in relief but then laughed.
Thinking to himself: Tonight I need to tell my whore in the brothel, I’ve scolded Upper Profound Realm cultivators.
Elsewhere, as the old man rode the horse into the city, he headed directly towards Immortal Sect. He had visited Immortal Sect, but that was a hundred years ago.
Of course, he just passed by.
Staying in such a tiny place, to him, was no different from being killed.
After entering the city and looking around, the old man chuckled and murmured, "Interesting, so many Profound Realm cultivators watched over by Body Refining cultivators, moving wood, pushing wooden carts."
Although Profound Realm wasn’t strong to him, they shouldn’t be downtrodden to this point, right?
Looking around while walking towards Yunlan Mountain, he passed by Lu Ye.
Lu Ye looked at him, and he looked at Lu Ye.
After completely passing each other, the old man curiously murmured under his breath, "This small place also has Half-Step Divine Profound? This small city is quite interesting."
He initially came to seek Zhantian Qingxuan, not caring about the sect she joined. What he saw in the city intrigued him more about the sect Zhantian Qingxuan joined.
Upon reaching the foot of Yunlan Mountain, he saw Zhantian Ye’s group preparing to return to Immortal Sect.
"Little Ye!"
The old man shouted directly.
Zhantian Ye halted, raised her brows, then turned to look at the person, smiling in reply, "Uncle Liangping, what brings you here?"
Ji Liangping laughed, jumped off the horse, and said, "To see you."
Zhantian Ye smiled back, "Hehe, I don’t believe it, you’re here to see my grandma, right?"
"You girl, speaking as if there’s something special between me and your grandma. But yes, she left a message telling me to find her here if needed, and so... here I am."
"Uncle Liangping, you may have come at a bad time, grandma just went into seclusion."
"It’s fine, call her. She said I could come to her anytime."
"Uncle Liangping, do you have an urgent matter?"
"Certainly."
"Uh, then wait here, I’ll go find our Sect Leader." Without Wen Ping speaking, she wouldn’t dare bring someone up to Immortal Sect rashly, especially a Divine Profound Upper Realm strongman.
Ji Liangping waved his hand and calmly replied, "No need for him to greet me. I don’t plan to have any dealings with him, just take me to your grandma."
He wouldn’t want any aftermaths or the sect people seeing him as their protector.
He’s not unfamiliar with that, last time he went to a One-Star Sect just for a stroll and ended up with claims he was close with the sect.
They boldly used his name to develop into a Two-Star Sect.
He doesn’t want it to happen again.
