Chapter Twenty-Seven: Climbing the Ladder
"Although I don't know where I offended you, but you think my life is so cheap? What spiritual pool, what kind of personal disciples, do you think these things can counteract their calculations and their plots? ”
Mo Chen pointed at Zhang Junze's chest word by word, he really didn't know why he thought so.
"Today's matter, if you don't deal with Deng Yang and Lu Ming according to the door rules, and give any kind of compensation, I will think that you are a mediocre leader."
"As for what spirit pool, I'm not rare! I will become a disciple through my own efforts! But I hope you don't make a mistake, I'm just trying to live up to my master, Elder Liu, and live up to their expectations, not for you! Not even for Lingwu Mountain! ”
This sentence sounds plain, but it is actually impassioned, Mo Chen is not expressing any lofty ambitions, but just telling the facts in his heart.
Mo Chen had already seen the true faces of these people, there was no blood boiling, no high spirits, he was thin and even looked a little weak, but no one underestimated him.
These words exploded in Elder Liu's heart like thunder!
Only then did he realize that he was wrong!
Mo Chen doesn't need his own care, nor does he need any benefits, Mo Chen is just for a "justice"! And today Lingwu Mountain can't even give him this "justice", why should he be asked to become stronger to protect Lingwu Mountain!
"Fool." Deng Yang and Lu Ming were also shocked for a long time, but soon they only sneered in their hearts.
Su Yan frowned, as if he wanted to open his mouth to persuade Mo Chen, but suddenly remembered what he said at the door of Mo Chen's residence that day, and stopped talking.
"I think that this is good for you, and I know that you may have your own righteousness in your heart, and you may have your own standards for judging others...... However, Mo Chen, it is still too trivial for you to argue with them now. ”
When everyone didn't know what to say, it was Mu Bingxue who spoke.
Even Deng Yang's face changed, in the inner gate, no matter which male disciple - even he greeted her, it was just that cold expression, and there had never been any change.
At this moment, she actually opened her mouth to persuade Mo Chen!
It's incredible!
Mo Chen finally had the opportunity to take a look at this iceberg beauty.
Beautiful, incomprehensibly beautiful. Ice muscles and jade bones, stars turn eyes, it can be described as "double pupils cut water to welcome people, golden shoes before the butterfly flies".
In fact, he is also a little complicated in his heart, from the rumors that were wantonly circulating in the outer gate before, to the favorability forcibly attached to the previous mission, he understands that Mu Bingxue is here today, it is just a little bit of "fate" in the dark.
As for how this "fate" will evolve, he doesn't know in his heart.
"Thank you...... But that's not the justice in my heart, but my bottom line as a human being. Mo Chen nodded in greeting, turned to look at Zhang Junze, the middle-aged man's smile froze for the first time:
"As long as I am still in Lingwu Mountain for a day, I will still be the deputy head for a day! My arrangement, it won't change! ”
Mo Chen smiled coldly, and suddenly bent down: "Then, the junior has thanked the deputy head for his kindness, and I will definitely go to the Shadow Forest." ”
Elder Liu's body straightened instantly, and he said in a loud voice, "No! This matter needs to be considered in the long run! The innate realm is too dangerous, Lingwu Mountain has never had an innate realm to go to the Shadow Forest! ”
"There's one." Mo Chen got up slowly, Elder Liu looked at him for a long time, the thin figure was a little familiar, but he couldn't remember it.
"I've been an elder in Lingwu Mountain for decades, how come I've never heard of one?" Lu Ming couldn't help but speak, and when he saw Zhang Junze glaring at him fiercely, he was so frightened that he quickly shut up again.
The middle-aged man regained his smile, as long as Mo Chen didn't refuse to go to the Shadow Forest, it would be easy. So he nodded: "There is indeed one." ”
"It's the Master below! I don't want to embarrass him, and I have long had the idea of going to the Shadow Forest, Elder Liu, your kindness, Mo Chen will remember it for the rest of my life. ”
Seeing Mo Chen's determined expression, Elder Liu wanted to persuade again, but he couldn't open his mouth.
"In that case, then you will set out tomorrow. It is estimated that the sect is over, and I will go back to present the award and open the 'road to the clouds', so I will leave first. ”
Zhang Junze didn't expect Mo Chen to be so brainless, he was very satisfied with today's result, and immediately took up the martial spirit cultivation and walked away.
Lu Ming was discouraged, and he hurriedly slipped away. As for Deng Yang, he glanced at Mu Bingxue very puzzled, then at Mo Chen, and left as well.
Deng Yang was completely defeated today. But tomorrow I'm going to the Shadow Forest...... Even if he leaves Lingwu Mountain, or even is chased and killed by Lingwu Mountain, he has to get rid of Mo Chen!
"There is a way in heaven that you don't take, and there is no door to hell for you to break into." Deng Yang smiled coldly in his heart, he planned to find an opportunity to kill Mo Chen, so he went to Cangqing Gate.
"Now that you've made your decision, I don't know how to persuade you. Tomorrow I will escort you all the way to the Shadow Forest, Su Yan, you must protect Mo Chen's safety...... As a token of appreciation, I can give you the quota for the Martial Arts Pavilion to introduce a disciple. ”
When Su Yan heard this "quota of personal disciples", his heart was instantly moved!
Elder Liu has never accepted apprentices, and in the past few years, he has accepted the three brothers of Shihou from the outer gate, and many people feel that the quota for introducing personal disciples must be reserved for Shi Hao.
But in order to protect himself from Mo Chen, Elder Liu was actually willing to give this quota to himself!
Fantastic.
At that moment, she immediately agreed: "Please rest assured that Elder Liu, I will definitely take care of Senior Brother Mo." ”
"May I also ask Elder Liu, what exactly does 'Son of a Thousand Years' mean?" Mo Chen couldn't understand why he was so kind to himself, and asked about something he had been wondering about for a long time.
Elder Liu smiled and patted him on the shoulder: "Climbing the cloud ladder once a year, you must not miss it, go and see your height, you must not miss the opportunity." ”
"There are some answers, I can't say, you go and ask your master, or, find the answer to the question yourself."
An old but domineering figure just rose from the ground and flickered away in the air.
"I'll be waiting for you at the top of the mountain."
Elder Liu's voice was leisurely.
"What the hell is a ladder climb?" Mo Chen was puzzled, he had heard this term many times.
"No, as a disciple of Lingwu Mountain, you don't even know how to climb the cloud ladder?" Su Yan was also about to leave, but he actually heard such a question of vomiting blood.
"Well, I've been on the mountain for too short a time, and a lot of things are not clear."
Mo Chen scratched his head, and seeing that Su Yan was about to explain, Mu Bingxue actually spoke again: "The cloud ladder is the ninety-nine steps on the top of Lingwu Mountain, leading straight to the clouds, and no one knows what is hidden in the clouds at the end of the ninety-nine layers..."
