Who let him join the Sword Sect!

Chapter 274 Xiaodeng is having fun, Zhongdeng is doing business

Qianji Pavilion.

In Lu Ning's room, she sat at the table and thought about life.

His head was still a little dizzy. He had already practiced the technique for several cycles, but the effects of the alcohol had not yet dissipated.

At this time, when I used my brain, I just felt a headache.

I was clearly here to poach someone else's talent, so how come I ended up getting drunk?

And, they just...
Thinking of the scene just now, even Lu Ning, with his smart mind, couldn't help but blush.

Just as Lu Ning was practicing his skills to sober up and continuing to put himself in other people's shoes, someone knocked on the door.

"Senior Sister Lu, are you feeling better? I'm Lily, we've met before."

Lu Ning rubbed her brows, her thoughts a little interrupted. It took her a long time to clear those messy images from her mind and remember who Lily was.

The second-in-command of Qianji Pavilion who can't beat a dog.

The supplier who provides Zhang Ze's original clothing.

"Come in." Lu Ningqiang cheered himself up, opened the door and let Lily in.

Lily walked over to the table very familiarly, poured herself a cup of tea, and then rubbed her hands and asked, "Senior Sister Lu, what do you think of this place?"

What Lily was asking about was naturally the thousands of magical instruments displayed in the room. She had not yet given up her plan to open a trade route with Tianzong.

“It’s the first time I’ve seen these, and they’re very interesting and useful.”

Lu Ning's head was still dizzy, but she pretended to see these things for the first time and started chatting with Lily.

Perhaps because she was chatting too happily with Lily, after a while, Lu Ning was almost sober and she remembered her mission.

Poach talent and serve as a liaison officer.

Lu Ning's mind raced.

Regardless of whether the little girl did it on purpose or not, his first priority was to get close to Junior Brother Zhang. Only more contact could create more opportunities.

My advantage is that I appear relatively normal. I must use this advantage to make Junior Brother Zhang feel the love and peace of a mother in this cold world, so that he will never leave me and cannot escape my embrace.
"Senior Sister Lu? Senior Sister Lu? What are you thinking about?"

Lily's voice brought Lu Ning back from her fantasy.

"Ah, nothing, just a little dizzy." Lu Ning picked up the teacup and took a sip. "Let's not talk about that. Is there anything I can help you with recently?"

Lu Ning planned to take the initiative while maintaining her image, and create opportunities if there were none.

Hearing this, Lily thought that this senior sister was indeed as enthusiastic as Chen Qin said.

Since someone brought it up, Lily stopped being polite. "There are only two important things right now. One is to go to the Black Tower and help Xiaoxuan and the others research Daotai and Shidan. The second is to go to the construction site and keep an eye on those people from the Hundred Demon Sect."

"Senior Sister Lu, where do you want to go?"

A branch task appeared, and Lu Ning fell into deep thought.

Based on her observation and understanding, Junior Brother Zhang is not a quiet person.

He probably wouldn't stay in one place to study.

Moreover, Junior Brother is extremely responsible. I heard from Master that it was he who suggested finding those secret rudders to work for free.

So, Zhang Ze is definitely at the construction site!

"We in the Tianzong sect also have a lot of experience in formations and weapon refining. I'll go to the construction site to help look after it. Maybe there will be some new discoveries."

"Okay!" Lily was about to respond, but suddenly exclaimed.

At this time, Maomao came jumping in, holding a frog in his mouth and resting his paws on Lily's legs. He showed off his trophy to Lily and wagged his tail.

"Good dog, don't eat it, spit it out quickly!" Seeing that Maomao wanted to swallow the frog, Lily quickly reached out to pry the dog's mouth open.

Lu Ning looked at this sudden farce and suddenly became silent.

Her attention was not on Lily, but on the big golden retriever, or rather, on the clothes on the big golden retriever.

Maomao was wearing the uniform of a Sword Sect disciple loosely at this time. Probably because he had been rolling around somewhere, the clothes were dirty.

Looking at the somewhat familiar clothes, Lu Ning hesitated for a moment and asked.

"What is this dress for?"

Lily didn't pry open Maomao's mouth, and because she was afraid that the frog would burst and splash all over her, she lost her grip and let Maomao swallow the frog into his stomach.

Hearing Lu Ning's question, Lily, who felt that Lu Ning was one of her own, answered casually.

"Oh, there's a fool who, for some reason, asked me to buy clothes worn by Jian Zong." Lily didn't mention Zhang Ze.

"So?" Lu Ning asked. She sniffed and found a familiar smell coming from Maomao.

"I'm so smart! What if that person is a bad guy and wants to cast a curse? I'll just let Maomao put on some clothes. Even if he wants to cast a curse, he can't find the person, he can only find the dog."

"If a man can't deal with a dog, even a curse will be useless."

"How about it, I'm smart."

Lily took off the clothes for Maomao, folded them up and put them away. She then compared numbers with Lu Ning and continued to make fun of the fool.

For a moment, Lu Ning felt that this group of people actually knew everything and were just playing tricks on her.

But she quickly dismissed the idea, thinking that there shouldn't be such a thing.

"Smart, that person is so stupid." Lu Ning said without emotion.

Lily, who didn't know that she had cut off her own source of income, was still quite happy. After chatting happily with Lu Ning for a while, she took Maomao's hand and left Lu Ning's guest room.

"Swindler!" After Lily left, Lu Ning walked to the bed and buried her head in the quilt.

After realizing that she had spent money to suck up dog hair for half a year, Lu Ning now wanted to die.

"It doesn't matter. I'll go to the construction site tomorrow and create another brilliant future!"

“The friendship between workers is indestructible!”

Lu Ning encouraged herself.

Qianji Pavilion.

"Where did you get this wine? Why is it so strong?"

Zhang Ze only touched that little bit, but now his head is still a little dizzy.

"Well, Fu Ji got it from Yaowang Valley." Chen Qin answered casually while wiping his flying sword, "And strictly speaking, it's not wine."

"What is that?" Zhang Ze asked curiously.

"It's an anesthetic. They made it over at Medicine King Valley to give to the Beast Taming Sect's elephants. Someone later tasted it and thought it was quite tasty, so they mixed it with some rice wine and sold it as wine."

Zhang Ze, “.”

"By the way, senior brother, where are you going tomorrow?" Chen Qin suddenly asked, blinking and looking at Zhang Ze with some anticipation.

Hearing this question, Zhang Ze suddenly sighed.

"We were at the restaurant just now," Zhang Ze said hesitantly, "and Aunt Mo found out."

Upon hearing this, the little junior sister's rosy face immediately turned pale.

"and then?"

"Then..." Zhang Ze took out the small walnut and looked at the ultimatum sent above, and said expressionlessly.

"Aunt Mo said that I am not allowed to leave her sight from now until the Qinghe meeting begins."

"What about me?" Chen Qin breathed a sigh of relief when she heard this. She felt that it was not a big deal. She was often scolded like this when she was a child.

"You're not allowed to come into her sight"

Chen Qin, "."

One is not allowed to leave the sight, and the other is not allowed to enter the sight. They are directly isolated.

Chen Qin, "I'm her daughter! No, I have to go and reason with her. She and my dad..."

The junior sister stood up and walked out while talking about the negative news from that year, and then her forehead hit an invisible wall with a bang.

"It hurts, it hurts." Chen Qin squatted on the ground, covering his forehead. His entire head was buzzing from the impact.

Old Deng really wants to discipline these two little Dengs, and he has many ways to do it.

Zhang Ze spread his hands and said, "Oh, there's one more thing."

"What's the matter?" Chen Qin asked.

"Aunt Mo also said that if we don't take first or second place in the Qinghe Conference and bring honor to the Sword Sect, she will break our legs."

Chen Qin, "."

The next day.

construction site.

With an extremely sad heart, A'li stood beside Lu Ning holding a small box, commemorating someone's lost freedom.

Lu Ning stood on the small mound, trying to look up and forward, but she really couldn't ignore A'li's strong presence, so she had no choice but to ask.

"you"

"My name is A'li." A'li held the small box and looked straight ahead.

"Excuse me, where is your junior brother Zhang?" Lu Ning asked politely.

"In jail?"

Lu Ning was a little confused, but she continued to ask, "What about her junior sister?"

Ah Li sighed, "He ran away from home in anger." "When will you be back?"

"How could I know that?"

"So what are you holding?"

"lunch."

Lu Ning, “.”

After Lu Ning asked carefully, she finally understood what Ah Li meant by going to jail.

It turned out that he was being taken care of by the mistress. She looked to the east and thought that Zhang Ze should be practicing sword on the mountain now.

So why did I rush here?

At the construction site, Chen Xiaoer was also thinking about this matter.

What on earth am I doing here?

Looking back on the first half of my life, it seems like I have done nothing, yet it also seems like I have committed many sins.

Originally, I was a silly boy in the village, helping out with housework and farming every day, and living a happy life.

After you turn eighteen, you can marry a good wife, have a bunch of children, and then die at the right time. That would be a perfect life.

However, life is unpredictable. Just when he was planning to get married, his elder brother who had disappeared for many years suddenly came back, bringing with him a lot of evil spirits and gold and silver.

My eldest brother said that it is better to return home in glory than to travel at night in fine clothes, and when you gain power, you naturally want to show off.

It doesn't matter that he's just showing off, but his elder brother hasn't forgotten him yet.

Now that he is in power, he naturally has to bring this naive cousin with him.

"Brother, your talent is wasted, but it doesn't matter. There is a saying that great things come late. If you follow me, your big brother, we will live forever."

Chen Xiaoer's elder brother took him to a place called the Blood Lion Rudder Stronghold.

Then he learned the most basic breathing mantras and began to practice Qigong clumsily.

However, before he could learn the secrets of the Hundred Demons Sect and come out to wreak havoc on the world, he was spotted by an old red-haired man and taken to another place, where he became a glorious gatekeeper.

A gate where no one is allowed to go out.

Every day life goes on like this: standing guard, getting scolded, practicing, and so on.

As he stood guard, his character gradually became violent for some reason. However, because he was not allowed to go out and had the lowest status in the Blood Lion Helm, he had no place to vent his evil thoughts.

Until one day, the gate of the Blood Lion Rudder was kicked down by the Sword Sect.

At that moment, Chen Xiaoer's only thought was that he finally didn't have to stand guard anymore.

Things were simple after that. The Sword Sect wiped out the remnants of the demonic sect, and he was that remnant.

There's not much to say about the escape process. It was just a one-sided beating. I don't know if it was because he was too inconspicuous or because he was too lucky, but Chen Xiaoer actually survived.

Classically, he fell off a cliff and was picked up by a little girl, but the girl who picked him up was also a monk.

A disciple of Xiaoyao Sect.

When Chen Xiaoer opened his eyes from the bed in Xiaoyao Gate and figured out where he was.

He panicked a lot.

However, the miraculous thing is that all the people who knew about his past are dead, so Chen Xiaoer just goes with the flow and says that he has forgotten everything.

Since Chen Xiaoer was a simple-minded person, no one suspected him.

At this point, Chen Xiaoer went from being a remnant of the Hundred Demons Sect to a latent remnant of the Hundred Demons Sect.

Of course, he himself didn't know it, he thought the people in Xiaoyao Sect were pretty good.

In Chen Xiaoer's vision of the future, his life should be peaceful and harmonious. He can practice casually, practice Qi, and build his foundation. He just wants to live beyond a hundred years old.

It would be best if I could find a wife.

But unexpectedly, after only a few days of peace, he followed his senior brothers here again and started working on building houses and buildings.

Chen Xiaoer felt that there must be something wrong with his path of cultivation.

Others' cultivation lives are colorful, but mine is just standing guard and moving bricks.

This immortal’s cultivation has not been in vain.

Chen Xiaoer was thinking about these messy things, but he did not stop working. Before he became an immortal, he often helped the villagers build houses.

The villagers and the people from the Sword Sect are all human beings, there should be no difference.

Chen Xiaoer was performing the spells called civil engineering magic by the monks of Qianji Pavilion with some unfamiliarity, while building walls and digging soil according to the drawings distributed from above.

But as I was working, my mind wandered to other places.

The senior sister who picked her up and was younger than her still hadn't shown up.

I heard that he was sent out by his master to deliver a letter.

This incident caused some criticism from fellow brothers and sisters, who said that the leader had always favored that girl and that it was very unfair.

However, Chen Xiaoer thought it was okay. We were all human beings, with close relatives and close friends. It was her ability to attract the Sect Master. Besides, the Sect Master had never treated anyone unfairly.

Thinking about these messy things, Chen Xiaoer cast a spell to make a hole in the ground.
As he subconsciously practiced the Xiaoyao Sect's mental method, an inexplicable force was also slowly moving through his body, guiding a trace of his essence and energy deep into the land beneath his feet.

It's not just him, everyone on the construction site is like this.

If one could penetrate the mystery, then standing above this place, one would be able to see a huge vortex slowly rotating, sinking into the earth beneath one's feet, and reaching the depths of the earth veins that spread across the four continents.

"Knew it."

Above this land, a pure land of Buddha is hidden in the mist.

A monk with white hair covering half of his face was holding an astrolabe in his hand, muttering to himself and posing.

However, after waiting for a long time, no one responded.

"Why are you looking at me? If you have something to say, just say it." Xiaoxue stood aside and rubbed her leaves, signaling Baimao to fart quickly.

Not only Xiaoxue, but even the wise monk who was supposed to track down the little monk was here.

Monk Mingzhi nodded, indicating that Xiaoxue was right.

Old Tang behind him also waved his hand, indicating that Baimao should speak up.

"Where did you get all these bad habits, kid? Tell me what you saw." Old Tang acted like an elder.

This white-haired monk is the third disciple of Tianzong's leader Lu Yuzhou, named Shi Xiu. He is of the same generation as Xiaoxue and Monk Mingzhi, and is considered to be in the middle stage.

He was the one actually sent by Lu Yuzhou to handle matters here.

Although Lu Yuzhou was hypocritical about the Sword Sect issue, he was never vague when it came to getting things done.

Although Lu Ning is indeed extremely talented, she still needs experience and is not capable enough at the moment. How could she be allowed to handle such a big thing alone?

The young ones have a lot of fun, the middle ones run errands, and the old ones hold up the sky.

This is basically how the six sects train their disciples.

Otherwise, what is the point of having a sect?

Theoretically speaking, Lao Tang is Lao Deng, but he is a Taoist priest, so he can go wherever he wants.

As the errand boy, Shi Xiu pointed to the construction site below.

"We provided the materials and spells, and the layout was arranged by you, Old Heavenly Master. Logically, there shouldn't be any opportunity to exploit them, but the only thing is that this person isn't one of ours."

"Brother Shi, what you mean is that there is something wrong with those people?" said the wise monk who had been silent on the side.

"That's right." He wanted to keep the secret for a while longer, but out of the corner of his eye he saw Xiaoxue twirling the vines around, as if she wanted to hit him.

Helpless, I could only finish what I was saying.

Shi Xiu lifted the hair that covered half of his face, and the face that had been covered became blurred, and finally turned into skin like a rock statue.

Even Old Tang was a little surprised when he saw Shi Xiu's appearance.

Shi Xiu was very satisfied with the performance of the audience, "I have been coming here in secret before. I have half a piece of Xiantian Dao fetus stuck in my head, so Master sent me here."

"I originally thought I was the only one in the world, but I didn't expect that a genius boy who could almost rival me would appear in the Sword Sect. Unfortunately, he is still young. I..."

Xiaoxue hit Shixiu with a vine.

Shi Zheng said calmly, "All those Dark Rudder monks have residual aura of the innate Dao fetus in their bodies, but it's very weak. It's so weak that only after they gather together can I sense it a little using the method taught by my master."

"Those cultivators beneath us are the real target of the Hundred Demons Sect's plan."

After Shi Xiu restored his face to its original state, he let his hair down.

Mingzhi thought about it for a moment and understood, "So Wuyang did this just to steal the credit."

"What do you mean?" Xiaoxue didn't understand anything.

Old Tang explained to Xiaoxue, "The Hundred Demon Sect has more secret operations than just these. There are many more that have yet to be discovered. On the day of the Qinghe meeting, countless cultivators would have gathered here. Unless no one is allowed in, it would be impossible to prevent these people, who are viewed as pawns by the Hundred Demon Sect, from entering this place."

"The elders within the Hundred Demons Sect are at odds with each other. Wuyang is doing this just to gain the upper hand."

"Besides, there are countless earth veins in the four continents. Even if we cancel the Qinghe Association, they will just go somewhere else to make plans. Hiding will only cause more trouble."

"In fact, this Qinghe meeting was a test and experiment for them."

"Is there a solution?" Xiaoxue doesn't like to use her brain.

Shi Xiu's eyes were blank, and he was obviously communicating with his master. After a while, Shi Xiu finally spoke.

"Yes, but I need the Sword Sect's consent and the help of Junior Brother Zhang."
