When the shout was heard, many people looked around, and some were looking for the source of the sound.

at last.

A short middle-aged man smiled awkwardly.

He was the one who made that shout just now.

Chi Lingxiao was shaking with anger, and he wished he could just walk up to him and slap him twice!

You are such a jerk!

"We are discussing something, what's the quarrel? Don't talk nonsense here. A faceless little guy is just bluffing to attract other people's attention!"

Chi Lingxiao snorted coldly after he finished speaking.

If this kind of thing happened before.

Since no one will go and argue with the people from Xuanling Holy Sect.

But things are different now.

Thinking that the Xuanling Holy Sect had already been defeated and was now being insulted by them, the man simply made up his mind and fought back directly.

"We are all small people, and we are not as good as you, Xuanling Holy Sect, who use other people's invitations to participate in the competition and want to share their glory!"

"When it comes to shamelessness, the combined shamelessness of everyone here is not as thick as yours!"

Chi Lingxiao stared at the person in front of him in stunned disbelief.

"You... who are you? Which sect are you from? How dare you be so presumptuous!"

After shouting this, Chi Lingxiao turned and looked at Qi Ze again.

"Junior brother, please stand up and speak a fair word today. Do you want to give your secret realm to the Beili royal family, or do you want to take it back to the Xuanling Holy Sect?"

Chi Lingxiao was furious and wanted to save face in front of everyone.

So I instinctively thought of Qi Ze.

At this time, if Qi Ze asked to help himself, no one would say anything.

Not to mention what the people from the Beili royal family would think, at least the man who had just confronted him would definitely lose face.

It’s a pity that Chi Lingxiao thought too highly of the situation.

Watching the hot potato being thrown over.

Qi Ze wanted to turn around and leave.

But at this time, everyone's eyes were fixed here.

Qi Ze's face was gloomy and he opened his mouth slightly.

But no sound was made yet.

Suddenly he fell down!

Everyone's eyes widened in surprise.

"What happened? Why did he fall down so quietly?"

"That's what I'm saying. Was it because the fight with the monster just now was too exhausting?"

"It seems that everyone tried their best in this Nine Suns Competition. Although the prince of the Beili Royal Family won third place, he also tried his best!"

"How strange, he fainted at such a good time."

After the last sentence was spoken, many people's eyes showed other meanings.

At this time, no one continued the conversation.

Bai Ningruo withdrew her gaze.

Said quietly.

"It's true that Chi Lingxiao fainted just now because he was excited, but now Qi Ze fainted, it's different."

Lu Chen's eyes gradually turned cold.

It seems that Qi Ze has no other choice, so he feels dizzy.

As for how to distribute the honors he has received, I guess Qi Ze is not willing to give them to anyone.

The ordinary secret realm of the Ninth Heaven is not something that ordinary practitioners can easily obtain.

Qi Ze is so selfish, why would he give it to others?

unless.

There must be greater interests driving him, otherwise, Qi Ze would never hand it over.

Most people just regarded Qi Ze's fainting as a joke.

After participating in a few discussions, they all withdrew their gazes.

The Void Messenger also saw the scene clearly.

After everyone quieted down, the Void Messenger looked at Lu Chen again.

"Lu Chen, congratulations on winning the first place in the Nine Suns Competition. You must make good use of the secret realm."

“Looking forward to our next meeting.”

The Void Messenger smiled and did not hide his admiration for Lu Chen.

Lu Chen clasped his hands together and said sincerely.

"Thank you, messenger. I will study the secret realm carefully."

"That's good. Don't be impatient."

The Void Messenger gave further instructions and then disappeared from everyone’s sight.

The Nine Suns Competition has officially ended.

Bai Ningruo had been following Lu Chen happily, always wanting to find an opportunity to talk to Lu Chen alone.

Unfortunately.

There are so many people who want to talk to Lu Chen.

Everyone almost surrounded Lu Chen in a circle.

the other side.

Only a few people were left guarding Qi Ze.

The representative of the Beili royal family was extremely anxious. They had already fed Qi Ze several pills, but there was still no sign of waking up.

Chi Lingxiao's eyes also turned red, and he took out all the pills in his Qiankun bag on the spot.

Wen Keyao also tried to input spiritual energy into Qi Ze, but it was still of no avail.

……

after one day.

The entire cultivation world knows the result of this Nine Suns Competition.

The Qingyang Sect also became a subject of discussion.

Many practitioners believed that the Qingyang Sect had finally suppressed the Xuanling Holy Sect through its hard work.

Some practitioners also feel that the reason Qingyang Sect was able to achieve such good results is all because of Lu Chen.

Some people even speculated that it wouldn't be long before Bai Ningruo and Lu Chen would get married.

Pang Zongheng has also heard a lot of similar rumors.

But Pang Zongheng did not come out to clarify.

Therefore, there was an additional layer of confusion between Lu Chen and Bai Ningruo.

To find out.

Many people who did not have invitations also rushed to Qingyang Sect.

Pang Zongheng was also extremely generous and warmly welcomed everyone who came to the sect.

Fine wine and delicious food, clinking glasses and laughter.

Bai Ningruo sat on the chair, glancing towards Lu Chen from time to time.

There seemed to be endless worries in his distant eyes.

On the other hand, Lu Chen's expression did not change. Facing the congratulations from everyone, Lu Chen still appeared calm and composed.

Pang Zongheng was in high spirits. He raised his glass and looked at everyone.

"Today, you can come to my Qingyang to ask for a glass of wine. I, Pang Zongheng, am extremely happy. Everyone, drink as much as you want. There is plenty of wine and food!"

As soon as the words fell, some people stood up impatiently.

"Master Pang, Qingyang Sect has gained a lot in the Nine Suns Competition. This is really cause for celebration. It won't be long before Qingyang Sect will become the leader among all the sects!"

“I’ve been waiting for this day to come.”

"It's a rare occasion for us to gather together today, so we would like to congratulate Sect Master Pang in advance!"

As he spoke, the man raised his glass and was about to drink the wine in it.

Pang Zongheng suddenly spoke up to stop him.

"No!"

"The Qingyang Sect has been trying its best to develop, but it is still not qualified to be the leader of other sects. Let's wait until we have the strength to do so before drinking this glass of wine!"

Having said that, Pang Zongheng looked at Lu Chen again.

"If you guys really need an excuse to drink, then follow me and toast to Lu Chen!"

After these words were spoken, many people showed doubts on their faces.

Everyone knows that Pang Zongheng admires Lu Chen and protects Lu Chen, but why did he ask everyone to toast Lu Chen today?

This is not like Pang Zongheng's usual style.

Although they were confused, Pang Zongheng had already said it, so the others were too embarrassed to refute him, so they all stood up and raised their glasses.

A rare look of embarrassment appeared on Lu Chen's face.

At this time, Pang Zongheng began to explain the reason.

Pang Zongheng took a step forward and saluted Lu Chen respectfully.

"Mr. Lu, you are the benefactor of our Qingyang Sect, and also the benefactor of me, Pang Zongheng. I want to toast you with this glass of wine, please do not refuse."

"Mr. Lu is kind and righteous, and has a broad mind. I, Pang Zongheng, admire him!"

"To be honest, there are very few people in this world that I, Pang Zongheng, admire, but Mr. Lu is undoubtedly one of them!"

As they listened, they became more and more confused.

Someone couldn't help but ask.

"Master Pang, what's going on?"

Pang Zongheng turned around with a serious expression.

"Everyone, I believe everyone knows that Qingyang Sect has achieved good results in the Nine Suns Competition this time. To be honest, this is inseparable from Mr. Lu!"

"It was with the help of Mr. Lu that our sect's Saint Bai Ningruo was able to easily get the good result of second place."

"Yesterday, Mr. Lu wanted to give me the high-level secret realm that he obtained in this competition. I, Pang Zongheng, felt unworthy of it, so I refused."

"But this friendship is not only remembered by me, but also by the entire Qingyang Sect!"

After explaining clearly what happened, Pang Zongheng finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Everyone suddenly realized.

Even Lu Chen showed a look of surprise on his face.

Pang Zongheng is a straightforward person, but Lu Chen was a little surprised that he said this in front of everyone.

Last night, he was indeed going to hand over the high-level sect secret realm of the Ninth Heaven to Pang Zongheng.

But Pang Zongheng refused as he had just said.

I didn't expect that this matter would be mentioned in public today.

Lu Chen also felt a little unnatural.

There's really no need to talk about this kind of thing here.

At least that's what I think.

Everyone sighed with emotion.

Pang Zongheng is generous and Lu Chen is lavish!

Today's banquet was such a delight!

Pang Zongheng took the lead and drank the wine in the glass, and the others followed suit.

Not far away, Bai Ningruo frowned.

Looking at Lu Chen again, Bai Ningruo suddenly had an urge to cry.

The feeling of reluctance in my heart is getting stronger and stronger.

Lu Chen wants to leave, and it is estimated that no one can stop him.

After the banquet.

Willow branches on the moon.

Everyone said goodbye to each other and left the hall.

Lu Chen also wanted to return to his residence.

As I walked out of the store, someone suddenly called me.

"Wait a moment! Mr. Lu, please wait a moment."

Hearing Zhang Youcai's voice, Lu Chen couldn't help but turn his head. Sure enough, the person calling him was Zhang Youcai.

only.

Compared to some time ago, Zhang Youcai has changed a lot now.

His clothes were no longer slovenly, and his smile became stiff.

A smile appeared on Lu Chen's lips.

"Are you going to complain to me? You even called out Mr. Lu. How much help are you asking for?"

The two have been together for quite some time, and Lu Chen also understands Zhang Youcai's temperament and character.

If Zhang Youcai didn't have something very important to ask for, he would definitely not have spoken so sincerely.

Seeing Lu Chen raise his eyebrows, Zhang Youcai sighed.

"I just want to talk to you, why would I ask you for help?"

Just as he finished speaking, Zhang Youcai suddenly asked again, "Are you leaving?"

"how do you know?"

"I guess. Although everyone enjoyed the party very much, I was always worried that you would leave."

Lu Chen laughed out loud.

Facing this fifteen or sixteen-year-old child, Lu Chen rarely showed his thoughts on his face.

But this time, Lu Chen didn't want to hide anything.

"Yes, I'm leaving tomorrow. You're right. I'm very happy."

"Why? Do you want to get out of here so badly? Are you happy to be leaving?"

"It has nothing to do with this. I am happy because what you just said was not divined."

Lu Chen finished speaking.

Zhang Youcai didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

I do know some divination skills, but I can't predict everything, right?

If that were the case, how boring would that be?

The two men looked at each other and walked forward together.

Bai Ningruo, who had just arrived at the door, suddenly had red eyes.

They were talking to each other and he could hear it clearly.

I didn't mean to eavesdrop.

But Bai Ningruo also wanted to take this opportunity to say a few words to Lu Chen, but she didn't expect Zhang Youcai to arrive early.

The question you want to ask already has an answer.

Bai Ningruo wanted to leave quickly.

During this period of time, I have become accustomed to having Lu Chen around.

I really can’t imagine how I’ll feel when Lu Chen leaves tomorrow.

Bai Ningruo felt her cheeks getting a little cold, she reached out to touch them, and found they were tears.

"On the day of the banquet, at the time of parting, it is ultimately no match for God's will."

After mumbling to herself, Bai Ningruo turned around quietly.

Zhang Youcai asked a lot of questions about the Nine Yang Competition.

Lu Chen also answered them one by one.

Even, including the fact that Xuan Mo ate the demon pill at the end, Lu Chen nodded in acknowledgement.

"Oh my God, what kind of monster is your cat? How can it swallow even the demon core of a high-level demon beast?"

Zhang Youcai’s eyes widened.

When he spoke, he didn't even blink.

Lu Chen smiled.

"That's not an ordinary cat. Just eat some demon pills!"

"You're quite generous. It looks like you will continue to feed it demon pills in the future?"

Lu Chen nodded without hesitation.

That's right.

Since he came out of the Demon Cave in Yuling Mountain, Xuan Mo has been with him.

Including when he left Xuanling Holy Sect, Xuan Mo accompanied him on all the journey.

The relationship between me and this cat is no longer an ordinary one.

How could Xuan Mo's trust in himself be compared to that of a few demon pills?

Seeing that Lu Chen had made up his mind.

Zhang Youcai sighed helplessly.

"Alright, alright, in my entire life, I have never seen anyone who lives such a miserable life as you do!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang Youcai looked around cautiously again, then raised his head and looked at Lu Chen.

"Your cat can't hear me when I say this. Will it come back to seek revenge on me?"

"That's hard to say. It is said that cats' ears are very sensitive."

Lu Chen did not give Zhang Youcai a definite answer.

But when Zhang Youcai heard this, he obviously already had the answer.

He jumped up and down happily again.

Only then did Zhang Youcai calm down.

"I hope that one day this cat will come to me. At least it will prove that you have come to Qingyang."

Zhang Youcai's words were full of loss.

Lu Chen reached out and patted Zhang Youcai on the shoulder.

"Follow your master and learn well. Don't let others laugh at you and your master when you come down the mountain one day."

Zhang Youcai sniffed hard.

"understood."

After returning to his residence, Lu Chen felt relieved.

All the things that needed to be done have been done. Now, I am just waiting to leave tomorrow.

Qingyang Sect is not his final destination.

This is just a short journey, and we will eventually have to part ways.

Thinking about what happened recently, Lu Chen felt a little emotional.

To the extent that, I had intended to start running the Golden Scroll as soon as I came back, but my mood was still affected.

If you can't calm down, just wait a little longer!

Lu Chen slowly closed his eyes and carefully felt every plant and tree around him.

Without opening his spiritual sense, Lu Chen could feel the breathing of several insects not far away.

……

"What happened? Why did Qi Ze faint?"

Upon learning that Qi Ze suddenly fainted, Yu Yanxue was full of doubts.

But on the way, Yu Yanxue couldn't bear it.

As soon as she returned to Xuanling Holy Sect, Yu Yanxue questioned Chi Lingxiao in a cold voice.

"I... Master, I don't know what happened. A moment ago, we were still discussing how to divide the secret realm, and in the blink of an eye, Junior Brother fainted."

"Some people say that Junior Brother was injured when fighting a high-level monster, which is why this happened."

"Some people also say..."

Chi Lingxiao didn't dare to continue speaking halfway.

Yu Yanxue narrowed her eyes and her voice gradually became colder.

"What are you talking about? Finish your words!"
