The Path to Becoming Immortal

Chapter 146: Emergency

The three-day alchemist assessment ended quickly.

Early the next morning, Gu Qing's guard, who had been hiding in the dark, suddenly came to visit and directly invited Ning Ping to the business alliance.

Ning Ping discovered that many people had come to the business alliance early today, and it seemed that they had received the news that Ling Hongjiu was leaving.

After a slight nod to Hua Wenyao at the door, he entered the room and saw that Gu Qing, brother and sister, and Ling Hongjiu were already waiting here.

"Ning Ping, today I and I will set off to Central Continent together. Are you ready?" Ling Hongjiu looked at Ning Ping energetically.

In his spare time these days, Gu Qing told Ling Hongjiu everything about Ning Ping. He was even more shocked when he learned that he had indeed learned the alchemy technique alone.

As a result, I fell in love with Ningping even more.

But when Ning Ping heard what the other party said, he felt lonely in his heart. Several people he had planned for a long time ago were now left alone.

"Sir, I'm ready." But in the blink of an eye, Ning Ping raised his head resolutely, with a determined look on his face.

"Well, that's very good." I don't know if Ling Hongjiu knew what happened in Ning Ping these two days, but he nodded with satisfaction after seeing Ning Ping's condition.

"By the way, Ning Ping, let me introduce you, this is my personal bodyguard Lu Ting. I sent him to protect you a few days ago, so I didn't disturb you."

Gu Qingyuan's face was filled with smiles, and he looked extremely candid.

"Oh? I didn't expect that Brother Gu would take such good care of me. I'm really flattered. Senior Lu, you have worked so hard for me."

After saying that, he bowed his hands to Na Luting, who also smiled and nodded in response, which was a bit free and easy.

"Senior is not senior, that's too foreign. We all treat each other as brothers here." Gu Qing waved his hands and felt a wave of flesh on his body.

Ning Ping said helplessly: "Okay, just listen to Brother Gu."

Gu Qing has not mentioned anything about Shen Qingyao and Qing Qing so far.

The same was true for Gu Xiao on the side, but when he looked at Ning Ping with his beautiful eyes, he could faintly detect a faint sadness in him.

"Okay, let's not delay any more. Let's go out and get ready to go." Gu Qing's eyes were impatient.

After saying that, the group of people headed downstairs.

Hua Wenyao at the door also looked excited and winked at Ning Ping.

Arriving at the lobby on the first floor, people kept saying hello to Ling Hongjiu.

"Elder Ling, you must come to Guangming City more often in the future."

"Elder Ling, have a pleasant journey."

"Mr. Ling, thank you for your advice."

Ling Hongjiu smiled and nodded in response, reflecting the style of a great master.

A group of people walked out of the merchant alliance and came to the square, but Ning Ping noticed something was wrong.

In the square, everyone from the Yun family, the Zheng family and other forces were present. From a glance, it looked like they were there to see off Ling Hongjiu, Gu Qing and others.

But when it fell into Ning Ping's eyes, he sensed a faint murderous intention with his powerful spiritual consciousness.

When a golden elixir guard walked to the side and released the flying boat, Ling Hongjiu and Gu Qing also came forward to greet him.

"Why do you need to be so polite? I, Ling, am just here in a hurry, so I don't deserve such kindness."

Considering Ling Hongjiu's status, he can certainly afford such treatment, and his words can only be polite.

"Elder Ling, you are a rare and distinguished guest in our Guangming City. No amount of courtesy is too much. I am afraid that I will treat you too slowly."

City Lord Yun Zhiyuan kept things polite, but from the corner of his eye he kept paying attention to Ning Ping behind him.

At first glance, although the other person's appearance is dignified, but overall he feels ordinary, how could he expect that there are so many secret things about him.

"Elder Ling, we have been negligent..."

"General Manager Gu, we look forward to your early return..."

Others around him also greeted him and started to be polite along with Ling Hongjiu and Gu Qing.

While everyone was being polite, Yong Yun Zhiyan of the Zhongzhou Yun family at the front looked disdainful, but everyone ignored him at the moment.

"No, no, City Lord Yun and fellow Taoists have spoken seriously. I am very happy about this trip. It can be said that I have gained a lot."

Ling Hongjiu waved his hand in response, the joy on his face not concealed at all.

"Okay, I'll bid farewell to you and see you again in the future."

After the polite greetings, they saw that the building boat had been deployed, and they were not prepared to delay any more. Everyone in the crowd bowed and wanted to board the building boat.

"Elder Ling, please be slow." Yun Zhiyuan suddenly said something to keep Ling Hongjiu here, and looked vaguely at Ning Ping behind him.

Ling Hongjiu was stunned for a moment and turned around with a suspicious look on his face. The expressions of Gu Qing and Gu Xiao on the side changed slightly.

Ning Ping, who was behind him, also felt bad.

Yun Zhiyuan continued with a troubled expression: "You are all people I respect, but he can't leave today."

As he spoke, he pointed his finger directly at Ning Ping behind Ling Hongjiu.

Hearing this, Ning Ping suddenly felt cold in his heart, but his face showed great doubts.

"Oh? City Lord Yun, why is this happening?" Ling Hongjiu's face also darkened.

"Mr. Ling, please listen to the explanation." Yun Zhiyuan suddenly had a bitter look on his face. He addressed the other party with respect and lowered his body.

"There is a lot of evidence that this son has killed my son Yun Xingyan, as well as many of his comrades, including the son of Tu Jinghao, the elder of Guangming City, and other comrades in the Spiritual Medicine Valley who died in vain."

As soon as the words fell, the whole square suddenly became quiet. Everyone was stunned by these words, and all their eyes were fixed on Ning Ping in the crowd.

No one expected that the rumored Soul Devouring Evil Lord was actually this inconspicuous young man in front of them.

Tu Jinghao, who was standing aside, suddenly showed a monstrous hatred on his face, and his whole body of Yuanli was agitated.

"Old Ling, and everyone, I, Yun Zhiyuan, have a basis for saying this. You listen to me carefully..."

As he spoke, Yun Zhiyuan described the deaths with obvious characteristics and the time points Ning Ping had experienced in the past.

In the end, he even placed the bodies he had collected on the square with a wave of his hand.

Tu Jinghao, who was trembling all over, also had a sullen face and showed his son's body together.

At this time, Ling Hongjiu's face also turned cold, and he turned his head to look at Ning Ping and said, "Did you do it?"

Gu Qing's face became strange, and he thought of the strange monk who took out hundreds of storage bags in one breath a few days ago. If it was Ning Ping, it would be fun.

"No!" Ning Ping responded lightly and continued to remain silent, and a sense of hostility in his heart was slowly gathering.

"Everyone, listen to me. What City Lord Yun said just now should be true, but this is all just speculation. I wonder if City Lord Yun has any concrete evidence?"

The speaker was Gu Qing. He also had these materials in his hands. I didn't expect this guy to start a fight now. In a flash, he also vaguely thought of the other party's intention.

Yun Zhiyuan was slightly stunned at this time. This is also the most lacking thing at present.

"Isn't it enough to have these speculations? My son died." But at this point, of course, he had to continue to persevere.
