Chapter 223: Back to the City
Riding the wind and controlling the air, flying over the green mountains and green waters.
In just a moment, Chen Ting returned to Linji City and landed on the Leaning Crane Peak.
Perception suddenly spreads, and everything in the entire mountain comes to mind.
After the initial four-day chaos in Rinzai City, after more than half a month of changes, the entire city can now be said to have taken on a new look, and the proper appearance of Xiuzhen City has begun to return to normal.
Although it is not as lively as before the big change, it is somewhat more energetic.
The new division of interests and territory, and the new rules of the monastic class after the reform of the old and the new, brought about continuous conflicts and a new atmosphere that was completely different from the old.
Gone are the days when the Dongsheng Imperial Court secretly intervened and ruled in today's Rinzai City, replaced by the all-inclusive Monk Alliance, a new force that truly dominated all monks!
There is no oppression and exploitation, no repression and exclusion.
It seems that the current Rinzai City is a fairyland for monks, as long as they practice hard and actively participate in the big and small matters in the alliance, even if they are casual cultivators, they no longer have to grovel, send others under the fence, and rely on themselves, they will have a bright future.
Everything is so beautiful and so fascinating.
But hidden under the surface of harmony are all kinds of open and secret strife and unscrupulous ugly acts.
Eight great families, five major sects.
Everyone is anxious to divide the interests, and they are either flies and dogs with each other, or they are jointly suppressed, and they are very busy.
And some of the smaller forces and scattered cultivators are fighting for the little resources left by the major forces in the original Linji City, without the slightest scruples.
The chaos still exists, and although it is less fierce than at the beginning, it has planted countless seeds of hatred.
There may not be anything to see in the short term, but once there is a rift between the alliance as a whole, it will inevitably usher in the most ferocious outbreak!
Large-scale fights are sometimes seen, and even occasionally evolve into irreconcilable deathmatches, and they are endless.
Even if the high-level members of the alliance have already noticed such hidden dangers, the upper-level sect families are like this, and how can they mediate these inevitable contradictions.
In the entire Rinzai City, the only place that is still calm is probably the Leaning Crane Peak.
Due to the existence of such a mysterious master as Chen Ting, and the proud achievements are placed in front of people, even if more than half a month has passed, no one dares to spread wild in the Leaning Crane Peak.
In this way, it became a place where many monks sought peace.
At least in Chen Ting's rough perception, he found that there were already hundreds of monks on the Leaning Crane Peak at this time, and they were very lively, no less than the heyday of this place.
Among them, Qi Lao and his disciples, the disciples of the three families of Feng Han, and even Luo Hengtian and Qiu Yuelian's brothers and sisters are all impressively listed.
It's just that to his surprise, he didn't find any trace of Li Qi, and he didn't know what this kid was doing.
"Senior...... You're back. ”
A slightly old voice suddenly came, but it was Qi Lao, who had lived in seclusion all day long.
Chen Ting came here and did not mean to hide it, so almost immediately, Qi Lao noticed it.
In this regard, Chen Ting just said with a different face: "What, is there something wrong with Chen?" ”
"Actually, it's not a big deal, it's just that you've been gone for more than half a month, and they're all very sad these days, and it's even rumored that someone is going to launch a liquidation against them again!"
Qi Lao came to the front, and his expression was unconsciously a little lonely: "Although we have chosen to surrender, we are not very welcome, there are many obstacles in the light and dark, especially in Feng Han, they are even greatly restricted in their actions, and they can only stay in the Oblique Crane Peak." ”
The three monks of Feng Han, after all, are too close to the Dongsheng Mansion, and the connection can be said to be quite close, and there are die-hard elements of the imperial court among them.
It is too difficult and difficult to change the court in this situation and quickly integrate into the alliance.
"It's a real problem, it's... What does this have to do with Chen? ”
The tone was extremely flat, and Chen Ting's face did not change in the slightest: "You may not have figured it out, everyone here has nothing to do with me, and the previous shot was just that some people didn't know what to do, that's all." ”
Hearing this, Qi Lao's old face was slightly stunned, but he really didn't expect his guess to be so different: "This, Qi still thought... It's because I misunderstood, I don't know if the seniors have anything to deal with, and Qi is willing to serve. ”
It has been more than ten days since taking the Transforming Pill, and Qi Lao personally feels that the dead energy in his body has begun to subside, and the vitality has gradually become vigorous, and even the spiritual root has been full of vitality.
In just a short period of time, it made him feel as if he was dozens of years younger, not only got rid of decay, but also had the possibility of advancing in the cultivation realm.
Perhaps, in this life, there may not be no possibility of winning the secret realm of the bridge on the other side!
With ambition, yes, the way he looked at Chen Ting, it was different.
If you can get the help of such a grandmaster, even if it is just a hand, then the chance of hitting the bridge on the other side will be greatly increased!
There was some surprise about the huge change in Qi Lao's attitude before and after, Chen Ting's mind was sharp, and after just thinking about it, he had a guess: "You have refined the Transformation Pill?" ”
"I also want to thank my predecessors for their generous gifts, so that the old decay can get out of the dead situation, and Qi has nothing to repay ......"
The old man Qi is old and refined, and his demeanor is very decent, and he is not only righteous and awe-inspiring, but also conforms to his own purpose: "If there is anything to do with the seniors, but please command, Qi is duty-bound!" ”
Nodding slightly, Chen Ting could somewhat guess about Qi Lao's careful thoughts.
At this time.
A noisy sound sounded below the Leaning Crane Peak, making the two of them look at the sound.
More than ten people were on two sides, facing each other from afar, and the words were quite intense, and there seemed to be some huge contradiction.
"Those people are all juniors of the Liuyan Sect, and it seems that the leader has a lot of relationship with Xu He, and they should be here to arrest a monk, it is said that this monk took a treasure from the Liuyan Sect, and greatly offended the other party, so he had no choice but to hide in the Leaning Crane Peak, and he couldn't shrink out."
As he spoke, Qi Lao turned his head to look at Chen Ting, and then said, "Senior, do you see if it's ......?"
Waving his hand, Chen Ting knew what he wanted to say, and directly interrupted: "Let them go, Chen is not a soil overlord, and in the future, I will not interfere with the Crane Peak." ”
In Linji City, he didn't plan to stay longer.
Not to mention the outbreak of the cold leylines of Liangdu Lake, it will not be long before it will sweep over, even if there is no such thing, he does not want to stay here for a long time.
"That cold their ......"
Hearing Chen Ting's words, Qi Lao's heart was shocked, and he faintly felt something.
The voice did not fall.
Suddenly, a brown-yellow streamer shot out from the sky, and the momentum of the wind and remnant clouds descended on the oblique crane peak very domineeringly.
He is dressed in a simple robe, his figure and appearance are ordinary, but his expression is majestic, and his eyes are even more dazzling, it is Xu He!
"Ancestor, the kid has been determined, and the cloud stone is in the ......"
Seeing Xu He's arrival, the disciples of the Liuyan Sect below immediately shouted loudly.
Shout!
A spiritual light emerged, like a pocket small sword, and was popped out by Xu He's finger, and it was headed by the Liuyan Sect in the middle.
The poor man's eyes were hot, waiting for the ancestor to show his might, but he didn't expect Xu He to do something to his own family, and he fainted in an instant.
"Humph! In the name of the sect, what kind of system will it become, drag your senior brother away, give me a good time to reflect and reflect, and be less embarrassed! ”
As he spoke, Xu He stepped into the void, his figure flashed, and he had already come to Chen Ting and Qi Lao.
After looking at Chen Ting, Xu He took the lead in making a salute, lowered his posture and said: "Xu has seen Taoist friends, the juniors in the door are young and vigorous and don't understand the rules, don't blame it, if there is anything offended, Xu is here to make a compensation." ”
With a faint smile on his face, Chen Ting replied: "Some small things, not enough to worry about, I don't know why Xu Daoyou came here?" ”
Secretly relieved, Xu He immediately said: "Xu Mou is indeed here for something important, both of them should have noticed that something big happened on the side of Liangdu Lake, and somehow, the evil in the middle of the lake broke out in advance, and the power is far greater than before!" I hope that Qi Lao can go with me to confirm the specific situation. ”
After saying that, Xu He couldn't help but glance at Chen Ting again.
This person disappeared for more than half a month, and now he suddenly appeared, but it was just in time for the outbreak of the Liangdu Lake, and Xu He faintly felt that there might be something strange in it.
But this is only speculation, not a reason for his accountability.
Moreover, even if this really had something to do with Chen Ting, with the other party's unfathomable cultivation strength, he wouldn't say much.
"Earthshattering, really!?"
Hearing what Xu He said, Chen Ting didn't show anything, but Qi Lao was shocked.
He was naturally aware of the change in Liangdu Lake, but he just thought that there was a master fighting method over there, so he didn't pay much attention to it.
After all, the chaos in Qiyuan Mansion still exists, and the battle between the forces of the Dongsheng Imperial Court and the monk alliance has never stopped, and the monks' fighting method is not worth surprising at all.
But if the Liangdu Lake erupts, it will be very different.
In the past, this was a huge disaster that could affect the entire Qiyuan Mansion, but now despite the large array of traps laid by the predecessors, it still cannot be taken lightly.
Moreover, judging from Xu He's performance, it is likely that it is not just as simple as the outbreak of the earth's evil!
