"Let's go, junior brother!"
After they came out of Yu Ning Palace, Zhao Ling'er took He Pingsheng by the hand. "Let's go to He Laoba's place for some spirit tea and a chat!"
Beside them, Eighth Brother Xu Kunlun and Seventh Sister Tian Xiaoqing both looked at He Pingsheng!
Their faces were full of anticipation.
"All right... let's go!"
He Pingsheng naturally couldn't spurn their kindness, so he agreed at once.
"Hahaha..." The stout Xu Kunlun was delighted. "Wonderful! Come on, come on, Ninth Brother! Let me tell you, I've got spirit tea at my place. I guarantee you'll love it!"
"Let's go!"
At first, He Pingsheng had thought they were trying to win him over so he would refine pills for them.
He hadn't refused simply because he figured refining pills was no big deal. One extra batch each month would be enough.
But he had guessed wrong.
They had no intention of asking him to refine pills.
They entered Xu Kunlun's courtyard and sat down in his room.
Xu Kunlun said, "Come, come, have some tea... We're getting together today because of the upcoming [Green Screen Mountain Trial]."
As he poured tea for everyone, he said, "This thing only happens once every thirty years. None of us has been inside, but they say it's extremely dangerous. Our senior brothers have all reached minor or great perfection in the Qi Refining Stage, and they won't take us along. The four of us are in the late Qi Refining Stage, so we'll just have to stick together!"
He Pingsheng nodded.
That was indeed true.
Of Yu Ning's nine disciples, the first five were all at the tenth layer of Qi Refining or above, the perfection levels of the Qi Refining Stage.
Those five usually stuck together and generally didn't include
