I just want to be a quiet man

Hearing this, Pei Ling was suddenly surprised. Gong Zhiyan challenged himself twice?As the elder brother Ruoxiufeng, the number one disciple of the Southern Region on the surface, the other party's strength is so low?

Li Ping said hesitantly: "I went to collect Dao Qi for you at the time, but I didn't see the fight between you and Gong Zhiyan, I just heard about it later."

"Gong Zhiyan is not your opponent. In fact, I had expected it a long time ago, but I didn't expect you to win so easily."

"If Gong Zhiyan had stayed in his own arena at that time, there would be no problem in the top ten of this outer sect competition. It's a pity that he insisted on challenging you, and he chose the time when it was about to end, so he didn't stay with himself." A little bit of retreat, it's just self-inflicted..."

"With your current strength, you have no opponents below Foundation Establishment. In this competition, there are only three people to pay attention to, especially Lu Xuan from the Eastern Region."

Chapter 184 : Brother Pei, please drink tea!

The name Lu Xuan sounded familiar to Pei Ling, but before he could think about it carefully, Li Ping had already said to himself: "Lu Xuan from the Eastern Region was once the disciple of Luo Qiao, the first elder of the Southern Region."

"He was originally a beggar in the world, but he became Luo Qiao's second disciple after being recommended by Luo Qiao's elder apprentice. Before Luo Qiao fell, he was highly trusted and cultivated."

"In terms of cultivation, it vaguely means that Luo Qiao is No. 1."

Speaking of this, Li Ping couldn't help sighing to himself, and said, "If it weren't for something happened to Luo Qiao's master and apprentice, we in the Southern Region wouldn't be worried from top to bottom during this outer sect competition... Forget it, let's not talk about it. In short, Luo Qiao After Qiao's death, all the disciples died one after another, but this Lu Xuan took refuge in the Eastern Region and turned against us in the Southern Region."

"According to the news from the domain master, it is very likely that Lu Xuan has already established the foundation!"

"It can be called one of the strongest disciples in this outer sect competition!"

"This person's strength must be stronger than yours. So whether you can make it to the top three or not depends on your luck."

"If you meet him in advance, it may be difficult to improve your ranking. Even if he targets my Southern Region disciples, he may deliberately prevent you from entering the top ten."

Pei Ling listened with a solemn expression.

Foundation establishment period... Pei Ling's face suddenly became serious. He has not fought against any foundation establishment cultivator until now.If Han Sigu is used as a comparison, then the monks at the peak of the ninth level of Qi training, including Tang Nanzhai back then, are all like ants in front of each other!

With his current strength, although he can easily defeat Gong Zhiyan who was stronger than Tang Nanzhai back then, he still thinks he can't reach the level of Han Sigu...

Of course, Han Sigu has yet to establish the foundation of heaven, not to mention the foundation of ordinary humanity. It is impossible for the Lord and Elders not to know!

So I should still have hope!

Thinking of this, Pei Ling said in a deep voice, "I still need the two sword qi from last time, the more the better!"

Li Ping nodded slightly: "Okay!"

※※※

Four days passed in a blink of an eye.

With the Saber Qi provided by Li Ping, Pei Ling's Saber Intent has improved rapidly, but there is still a long way to go before Xiaocheng.

It's just that the time for the outer competition has come, so he can only stop his practice, leave the inner room, and go to see Li Ping.

"The domain master asked me to wait until the Elder Pavilion meets." Li Ping was in a good mood when he saw him, and said, "Let's go."

After a long while, in the spacious hall of the Elder's Pavilion, apart from the maids and servants standing beside them, there were less than ten people sitting sparsely, and the atmosphere was dignified.

When Li Ping saw this scene, his face changed slightly: "What's wrong?"

In order to prevent Pei Ling from being poached, he arrived at the right time.

Logically speaking, people from other peaks should have arrived at this time. After all, the domain master will also come today, who dares to let the domain master wait?

"Xuan Qingqing had an accident with Duanmu Mingyan." The elder of Guishou Peak said with a sullen face, "The elders of Guiling Peak and Guiliu Peak have weak guards. They were just punished by the domain master to guard Gu Yuan for a hundred years. They are not allowed to leave half a step without an order!"

Li Ping's heart shook, and he said, "What happened?"

"Xuanqing was suddenly attacked by his fellow apprentice, and he was seriously injured and dying." The elder of Feishoufeng said calmly, "Duanmu Mingyan was suddenly backlashed by the top-grade talisman summoning soul flag, and his vitality was seriously injured. In addition..."

He glanced at Qin Qing beside him.

Only then did Li Ping and Pei Ling realize that Qin Qing's face was a little pale, and Shen Zhe not far away also had a slightly messy aura.

The elder of Feishou Peak continued slowly, "Qin Qing and Shen Zhe were both subjected to similar schemes, but fortunately they were rescued in time, they were only slightly injured, nothing serious."

After saying this, he and the elder Guishoufeng looked at Pei Ling, and asked in a deep voice, "How is Pei Ling?"

Li Ping was stunned for a moment before turning to Pei Ling: "You..."

"The disciples are fine." Pei Ling shook his head, very surprised in his heart. A total of five disciples selected by the Southern Territory won out, but all of them were attacked except himself. Xuan Qingqing and Duanmu Mingyan couldn't even fight?

"It's good that you're fine." The three elders breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.

Li Ping frowned: "Then what should we do now? We can't just let the three of them fight against the five disciples from other domains?"

"Of course it's impossible." The elder of Guishoufeng smiled coldly, "The domain master has already learned about this matter, and now he has gone to the suzerain to report my grievances in the southern domain."

The elder of Feishou Peak nodded slightly: "Just wait, the master of the meeting area should come over soon."

After hearing this conversation, Pei Ling's face changed slightly. Is this Southern Territory going to work?Can't the safety of the disciples carefully selected to represent the Southern Territory be guaranteed?

Is it dangerous for me to stand here now?

After all, he is the number one selection in the South Region this year!It is still the first one to pass the trial without trial!

Just thinking about it, I realized something, so I relaxed and calmed down.

At this moment, Qin Qing and Shen Zhe looked at each other, and suddenly they walked up to him and bowed to salute: "Senior Brother Pei, for this competition, please take care of me!"

"That's right." Seeing this, the elders of Guishoufeng and Feishoufeng not only were not displeased, but nodded slightly and echoed, "Pei Ling, although we Erfeng didn't have much affection for you in the past, but the outer sect compares you. Among them, you are all the pride of the southern region, so we should advance and retreat together."

"As long as you are willing to support Shen Zhe one or two, the rewards after he enters the top ten in the Outer Sect Grand Competition, the old man decides, you can choose half of it at will." The elder of Guishoufeng then promised, "If you are willing to come to Guishoufeng ..."

Li Ping's face darkened: "Bastard! The domain master has something to say, and the big competition is coming soon, so don't act in private, so as not to disturb Tianjiao's state of mind. How dare you act recklessly!? Could it be that you don't take the domain master's words seriously? "

The Elder Guishoufeng twitched, and then smiled nonchalantly: "This old man made a mistake, but the promise just now is absolutely valid."

The elder of Flying Skull Peak watched with cold eyes, and said slowly at this moment: "I am the same at Flying Skull Peak."

Pei Ling didn't expect that the second peak could lower his figure so much. After laughing dumbfounded, he nodded slightly: "If I have the energy, I can."

After all, if things cannot be done, it is impossible for him to take risks for Qin Qing and Shen Zhe.

"Thank you, Senior Brother Pei!" With these words, Qin Qing and Shen Zhe were relieved. Although they didn't witness it with their own eyes that day, they were all reminded of Pei Ling's strength by the elders of their respective peaks afterwards.

If it was a normal time, and I heard that Huaiyin Peak, who was at the bottom, had turned out to be a genius, with stunning talent and the highest strength, maybe I would feel jealous.

But right now, the big competition in the outer sect is coming soon, and the big competition is not a selection. It needs to consider the future of the domain and control the casualties.The Outer Sect Grand Competition, which is held every ten years, was originally intended to select new blood for the Holy Sect, so it never cared about the cruelty of the process, and only wanted to be able to sharpen the most worthwhile rough jade.

It's a matter of wealth and life, and the two of them still have the heart to be jealous. They wish that the Tianjiao of their own domain can be stronger, the better, and they can't wait to embrace the thigh of Tianjiao of their own domain as soon as possible.

At that moment, Qin Qing took the lead to pick up the teapot next to him, poured a cup of tea for Pei Ling, and said courteously, "Senior brother Pei, please drink tea."

Shen Zhe took a step back and frowned slightly, but immediately aimed at the spiritual fruit pastry not far away, gathered his spiritual power, and quickly carved several spiritual fruits into a pleasing fruit-cut platter, held them with both hands, and said respectfully: "Senior Brother Pei, please use Shiguo."

Chapter 185 : Return the lives of our disciples! ! !

Qin Qing and Shen Zhe put down the airs of the outer sect's arrogance, and looked like servants, one on the left and one on the right, serving for a while, when suddenly a red and black mist rose from the main seat.

Seeing this, the elders hurriedly stood up and saluted: "I have seen the domain master!"

Pei Ling, Qin Qing, and Shen Zhe also bowed to greet them.

The mist gathered suddenly, and a young man in a blood robe appeared on the spot.

This man's long hair is loose, with sword eyebrows and star eyes, straight nose and square mouth, the blood in his pupils is faint, and the blood robe is pure color without lines, but it seems that there are living things wriggling in it.

The breath is deep, like an abyss like an ocean, making people dare not look directly at it.

After he appeared, he nodded slightly to the three elders, and said, "The two vacancies will be filled by Ruo Xiufeng Gong Zhiyan and Blood Tide Peak Zhao Tianlai."

The three elders quickly said yes, and used their means to inform the elders of the two peaks to bring people here quickly.

Mo Zhenyi immediately looked at Pei Ling, and said, "Come here, stand by my side, and don't leave my side today unless I tell you personally."

Pei Ling didn't dare to neglect: "Yes."

He quickly walked from Li Ping's side to stand not far from Mo Zhenyi, and waited for a while. If the elders and disciples of Xiufeng Blood Tide Peak arrived one after another, after greeting the domain master, Mo Zhenyi had no time to ask. Flick the sleeves of the robe.

Everyone was in a trance for a while, and when they settled down, they suddenly appeared in a water pavilion!

This waterside pavilion is built very luxuriously with carved railings, jade bricks and nail heads.

The furnishings inside are elegant, with high desks and many rare flowers and the like, but what attracts the most attention is not inside the water pavilion, but outside the water pavilion, a piece of smooth water surface like a mirror.

The surface of the water has no ripples at all, it looks like a whole piece of clear glass at first glance, but at a glance, there are strange beasts in the shape of horned dragons swimming slowly among the many strange-shaped aquatic plants.

Surrounded by many identical water pavilions, there is one at a certain distance. At this moment, there is a part of the water pavilions with half-rolled bead curtains, and there are many figures inside, but they have arrived first.

Noticing the arrival of the people from the southern region, a very strong murderous intent suddenly erupted in a water pavilion in the east, and a monk roared: "Mo Zhenyi! Give back the lives of my disciples!!!"

Before the words were finished, a huge blue and white ghost hand suddenly appeared in mid-air, mixed with gusts of wind, and ruthlessly grabbed at the water pavilion where the Nanyu group was located!

The foul wind hit their faces, and all the outer disciples in the water pavilion felt dizzy for a while.

Seeing this, Mo Zhenyi's expression darkened, and his wide sleeves flicked lightly. Suddenly, a gust of wind blew up the entire water pavilion, blowing the bead curtains hanging around violently, but Pei Ling and the others couldn't afford to wear their clothes. In an instant, Sweep away all the fishy smells!

At the same time, a big dark red hand rose from the sky above the waterside pavilion, grabbing the ghost hand that was attacking by the other side, and squeezed it hard.

There was only an ear-piercing scream, and the two palms dissipated at the same time.

Mo Zhenyi looked at the water pavilion in the east, and said in a cold voice, "Da Xi Zan, why are you crazy?"

"You, the majestic master of a domain, actually used the big to bully the small, and personally separated into an avatar to infiltrate our domain, attacking and killing the Tianjiao disciples selected layer by layer!" In the water pavilion, the monk named Daxi Zan shouted angrily, "It's shameless! !"

"What? There is such a thing?" Hearing this, there were exclamations from all around the waterside pavilion.

Some senior officials of the Holy Sect reprimanded: "Mo Zhenyi, as the domain master, you must not go too far!"

"That's right." Another high-ranking officer also said, "Ordinary disciples are fine, they are worthless. But since they can pass through the selection process, they may not be the future pillars of our Holy Sect. How can we lighten the killer?"

"Mo Zhenyi, if there is no reasonable reason, this big competition is over, and you go to the suzerain to receive the punishment yourself!"

Mo Zhenyi listened to these words coldly, and suddenly said: "Is the Holy Sect going to give me a way out in the Southern Region?"

Without waiting for these people to speak, he suddenly raised his voice, and angrily said, "Who doesn't know what's going on in my southern region?! In the past few decades, most of the outside sect contests, Tianjiao came from Luo Qiao's sect! Luo Qiao , other things aside, in terms of insight into pearls, and ability to teach disciples, I am second to none in the Southern Region!"

"As a result, Luo Qiao fell on the eve of the Outer Sect Grand Competition, and all the disciples under his knees were killed or injured. Only Lu Xuan, a traitor, took advantage of the chaos and returned to the Eastern Region."

"Since then, there have been many disciples on the 54th peak, but they have not been accepted."

"It was hard to select five Tianjiao layer by layer. For this reason, I even disregarded the backlash of my skills and forcibly broke through. I plan to personally guide them for a few days, so that they can do their best in the outer sect competition."

"As a result, just after leaving the customs, the five Tianjiao were all attacked!"

"Two of Tianjiao were seriously injured and dying, and I saved their lives by personally taking action."

"Two were slightly injured, and their breathing is still unstable."

"The leader selected by me in the Southern Region..."

As he spoke, he turned his head to look at Pei Ling, as if looking at his own son who had been separated for many years, with tears in his eyes, his voice trembling, and he said with grief, "In one night, he was assassinated by seven waves before and after. Dead men, puppets, Gu insects, talismans, monsters, traitors... If I hadn't attached great importance to them and ordered my personal guards to guard them outside, I'm afraid this son's bones would have been gone by now!"

Pei Ling had guessed something just now in Ruoxiu Peak Elder's Pavilion, and without hesitation at this moment, he immediately put on a look of grief and indignation in cooperation, as if he had been greatly wronged.

Seeing this, the outside world was silent for a while, and then whispered.

Behind a beaded curtain not far from the water pavilion in the South Region, a ghost maid who was fiddling with the furnishings was stunned, and couldn't help saying: "The Outer Sect Grand Competition, the Four Regions have already competed to such a degree? Just murdering other people is not enough. Forget it, dare to touch Pei Ling, is it easy to bully the master!"

"Do you believe Mo Zhenyi's words?" Wuliu, who was holding a porcelain vase and considering where it would be more suitable for the owner, sneered, put down the porcelain vase casually, and scoffed, "Sister Jiaoni has been following Pei these days. Ling, who dares to assassinate one after another like this, how can elder sister Jiaoni not report to the master?"

"Since Sister Jiaoni hasn't moved, it means that Mo Zhenyi is talking nonsense."

"Even if it's true, it's Nanyu's own directing and acting."

She said lightly, "The Outer Sect Dabi is related to the resources of the Four Regions for the next ten years, and it has always been the top priority of the Four Regions. If it weren't for the fact that Luo Qiao's crime was too big, even if he died, Nanyu would have to keep his allies. Disciple, at least Wu Tingxi and others will not die before the outer sect competition."

"Since the masters and apprentices can't be kept, Mo Zhenyi didn't know at that time that Pei Ling was born in the Huaiyin Summit, and Baonanyu was in the top ten in the outer sect competition. How could he not make preparations?"

The ghost maid said in a daze: "So he put down his face and used his avatar to assassinate the disciples of the Eastern Region?"

"So he has already made plans." Wuliu snorted and said, "At least two of the five disciples selected by the Southern Territory this time are victims of the default. As long as the selection is over, something will happen. If you don't die, you will be seriously injured." In this way, Mo Zhenyi, the master of the domain, has a reason to personally kill the disciples of other domains, and after the murder, he can now justify himself..."

She lifted her chin outward.

At this moment, Mo Zhenyi is still making an impassioned statement: "Assaulting the elders of our domain, forcing to death the Tianjiao that our domain has cultivated for many years, even the Tianjiao that our domain has selected now... To kill them all is simply to make my south Territory to death!"

"The Southern Territory is already in dire straits. At the moment of life and death, as the domain master, I have not personally acted. Do I have to wait for the Eastern Territory to kill my disciples?!"

"The Eastern Territory is so deceitful, but you only care about the self-defense of our Southern Territory when we have nowhere to go. Is it possible that even the Zongmen thinks that the Southern Territory should be destroyed?!"

Inside the waterside pavilion, Mo Zhenyi's eyes were red and his canthus were split open, as if he had received great injustice and resentment, he shouted hoarsely, "I have worked hard in the southern region for thousands of years, have made contributions to the sect, and have served the sect. How many times have you shed blood, thrown your head and blood for the sect, and even died!"

"The Zongmen is so partial to the Eastern Territory, I will not accept it! I will not accept it in the Southern Territory!!!"
