Liu Ying and Zhou Qi are facing each other.
The mountain breeze seemed to have stagnated at this moment, and where the two people's eyes met, there seemed to be invisible sparks crackling.
Liu Ying's gaze was like a poisoned knife, scraping across Zhou Qi's face inch by inch, while Zhou Qi just stood there with no expression or emotion.
After a moment, Liu Ying sneered and took the lead to withdraw his gaze.
He lowered his head and re-opened the crumpled list with his knuckles so hard that the paper made a slight tearing sound.
He doesn't know what happened in Small World, but he will definitely figure it out.
Not only Great Sun Dynasty, but also Primordial Hall.
Great Sun Dynasty Ten people died, not one left.
Primordial Hall Seven people died, only three are left.
With the strength of Zhou Qi Golden Core Eighth Layer, it is absolutely impossible to achieve this in a head-on confrontation.
This is the only reason why the snipe and the clam fight and the fishermen benefit.
But so what?
Not important.
Even if this gray mouse just took advantage, he still has to pay the price.
He could even imagine the outcome.
Primordial Immortal Sect is a place that has no shortage of geniuses. So what if he is number one? His father is Peak Master of Myriad Dao Peak. There are a hundred ways to make this person disappear quietly without anyone noticing in the end.
Liu Ying took back his mind, smoothed the crumpled paper completely, and spoke in a calm voice without any ripples:
"Everyone whose name I read comes forward, and I will take you to the Outer Sect. The rest of you will stay where you are, and someone will take you to Servants' Quarters later."
"Zhou Qi."
"Meng Rou."
"Li Han."
The thirty names were quickly read out, and everyone gathered in front of the square.
Zhou Qi stood at the back of the crowd and glanced at the faces that were about to join Outer Sect. Most of them were familiar faces.
Shen Hongyuan The three of them squeezed over and said hello to him. Zhou Qi just nodded slightly, and then his eyes fell back on the cyan back in front of him.
Liu Ying never looked at him again.
He just turned around and led thirty people towards the mountain, his pace neither fast nor slow, his green robes rustling in the mountain wind.
But Zhou Qi could feel that there was a streak of Divine Sense that was always falling on him, exploring him up and down.
"Damn it, even before you join the sect, you're already in trouble." Zhou Qi sighed inwardly, and he glanced at Meng Rou in front of him with his peripheral vision. "I don't know if her master Peak Master is reliable..."
The mountain road at the foot gradually becomes steeper and then gentler.
The moment they stepped onto the top of the mountain, the whole world suddenly experienced some indescribable changes.
It was as if there was an invisible big hand gently twisting the space.
Then, wonderland came to us.
The sky is a shade bluer than that under the mountain, like summer in Hayao Miyazaki.
In the distance, there are many mountains and forests, and the peaks rise from the ground. White clouds are wrapped around the waist of the peaks, and the cornices are faintly visible above the clouds. They are the palaces of each peak, glowing with a faint golden color in the sunlight.
Nearby, on both sides of the mountain road paved with bluestone, there are various spiritual grasses, with crystal dewdrops on their leaves.
A clear stream winds down from the depths of the mountain stream. A layer of gauze-like mountain mist floats on the surface of the stream. In the rolling mist, you can vaguely see a few silver fish jumping out of the water and falling back silently.
There are blue birds and white cranes in the sky, and all the scenery shows the true nature of nature.
Everyone walked along the bluestone road until they reached the end, where a huge white marble archway stood majestically, with four simple characters engraved on it:
"Primordial Outer Sect"
After the archway, a large number of buildings are built according to the mountain, with scattered heights.
The air is filled with strong Spiritual Qi, and the concentration is at least three times that at the foot of the mountain.
Thirty newcomers stood in such a fairyland, and many of them had looks of shock on their faces.
Zhou Qi also lamented the richness of Spiritual Qi here, but his system dismissed it.
And where Spiritual Qi is concentrated, the fight will be fiercer.
There has always been only a thin line between fairyland and purgatory.
Liu Ying led everyone through the many palaces of the Outer Sect, and finally came to the center of a wide square.
The square is paved with white jade, with seventy-two dragon stone pillars standing on the edge. The ground is covered with complex formation patterns, and occasionally a few streams of light follow the trajectory of the formations.
Standing in front of the square was an old man with gray beard and thin body, looking at the visitors with his hands behind his back.
As soon as he saw Liu Ying, the old man immediately put a smile on his face and hurriedly greeted him.
"Oh! Little friend Liu, I haven't seen you for more than ten years since you left Outer Sect!"
Liu Ying also had a smile on his face, clasping his fists and saying, "Elder Ning No wonder, Xiaozi Fengzhong is so busy with things that he really can't get away from it."
Elder Ning looked Liu Ying up and down, his eyes full of admiration. "Hahaha, I understand, it's Heavenly Sword Peak after all, it's normal to be busy! I wonder how strong Liu Xiaoyou is now?"
"Nascent Soul Third Realm was just a breakthrough a few days ago, it's not worth mentioning." Liu Ying waved his hand, his tone was light, as if he was talking about a trivial matter.
Elder Ning was shocked when he heard this, and his skinny fingers shook unconsciously. "Oh, this is not worth mentioning! He is truly a genius of Heavenly Sword Peak! I have been trapped in the Nascent Soul First Realm for a hundred years, I am so ashamed."
The two smiled and exchanged a few words, their tone of voice friendly, like old friends they hadn't seen for many years.
But anyone with a discerning eye can see that Elder Ning's posture is always half shorter.
Not only Nascent Soul First Layer versus Nascent Soul Third Layer, but also the weight of the mountains behind them.
After chatting for a while, Liu Ying raised his eyes and glanced at the people in the square, and suddenly spoke, his voice was neither loud nor quiet, but he deliberately let everyone present hear clearly:
"I have something to ask Elder Ning for help."
"You tell me, why are you so polite between you and me?" Elder Ning said with a smile.
Liu Ying's tone was understated. "One of these people is named Zhou Qi. He should have killed many of my Great Sun Dynasty people. I hope Elder Ning can help me and give him some suffering."
As soon as he finished speaking, half of the air in the square seemed to have been sucked out.
Among the thirty newcomers, some took a breath, and some subconsciously took half a step back and quietly cast their eyes on the young man in gray robe at the back of the crowd.
I don't even plan to install it anymore.
Elder Ning's smile froze on his face.
His lips moved, his eyes flickered, and he didn't know how to answer for a moment.
If you tell me this kind of thing in private, I will definitely help.
But if you say that in front of thirty people, aren't you putting me on the fire?
In front of everyone, I, an elder Outer Sect, openly agreed to this kind of thing. How can I behave like a human being if word spreads about it?
Just when Elder Ning hesitated, Liu Ying added unhurriedly, with a faint smile in his tone:
"It's just that Elder Ning is inconvenient, but Evil Cultivator, who is in the Elder Ning dynasty, may have to wait a while."
Elder Ning's face changed instantly.
That Evil Cultivator is his Ning Kingdom Imperial Clan's biggest concern. The Emperor Ning Kingdom has sent people to inquire many times, but this matter happened to be stuck in the Heavenly Sword Peak approval process and has been delayed for three full years.
After three seconds of silence, Elder Ning laughed loudly and deliberately:
"Look what you said, I can still help with this, hahaha."
