Chapter 175: One Thing
Qu Gufeng's inference about Su Jianxing is not wrong. Su Jianxing really didn't plan to go to care about Hu Jiao's affairs, and even bluffed to see that she was honest, so he planned to contact Hu Yucun and ask him to take Hu Jiao back in person.
But she didn't have Hu Yucun's communication stone, so after thinking about it, she contacted Qu Gufeng. The two of them are old acquaintances, and they will never be unable to get in touch.
He was summoned but received no response. Su Jianxing thought about it for a while, and it seemed that it was because seeing that the day of the secret realm trial was approaching, the council of the conference had not yet decided which secret realm. At this time, the old wind must still be wrestling with the council.
The secret realm trial is not a small matter, because although the Ten Sects of the Immortal Mountain Disciple Conference is held every five years, the secret realm trial is once a year. And as long as it's a secret realm, it's completely safe. Because the secret realm has its own world, even having a central stone that can control the secret realm does not completely guarantee that everything in it is under one's control.
Interestingly, the higher the level, the more uncontrollable factors there will be.
The disciples of the various sects who can participate in the conference are at the elite level, even if they are not at the top level, they are very precious, and it has cost countless spirit stone pills to raise one, so they can't fold in this trial secret realm for no reason.
But the secret realm is not a cabbage, there are not many in the hands of the major sects, and there are even fewer who need to meet the cultivation realm of the participating disciples. The few that remain have their own advantages and disadvantages.
Isn't that going to be too busy for the people in the council?
Su Jianxing went to the Book Pavilion of the Holy Yuan Sect again in his spare time a few days ago, and found a collection of books to review the secret realms that were already well known in the Immortal Cultivation Realm, and he also counted the several secret realms that might be opened soon, and he didn't panic at all.
The sky was just right, Su Jianxing raised his head and closed his eyes, and the soft sunlight was still evenly covered on his face, not only was it not dazzling, but there was even an illusion of being in the warm sun. The chairs swayed slightly back and forth, making a "crunch, crunch" sound, and the wind above them rustled the leaves.
Su Jianxing gradually felt sleepy, and just as she was about to sink her consciousness into a stupor, a knock on the door suddenly sounded, dissipating the sleepiness.
Zhao Ran opened his eyes, with a little displeasure in his eyes being disturbed.
"Who?"
Xu is displeasure in his voice was heard, and there was silence outside the door for a moment, and then a disciple's voice came out: "Senior Sister Su, there is a guest at the foot of the mountain who wants to see you." β
Su Jianxing sat up, raised his hand and nodded, the courtyard door opened by itself with a "squeak", and the knocking disciple was standing at the door, and before he could put down his raised hand, he looked at her blankly.
"Who's the visitor?" Su Jianxing asked with the displeasure of being woken up. The formation on the mountain road is to trap those intruders who are not interested, but if the rules and regulations are polite and the number of knocks to ask for a meeting, she will naturally not be rude and drive people away.
In life, who can live without some entertainment?
Su Jianxing suffered too much in his previous life, which led to his lack of a friend who could stand by his side and speak for himself when he encountered a catastrophe, so he learned a lesson in this life, and only then did he make a good connection.
Friends, the more the merrier, but there is still a scale in her heart to measure the distance between relatives and distances.
Seeing Su Jianxing's gentle expression, the disciple thought that the displeasure he had heard before was just an illusion, so he didn't think much about it, and only said, "It's a person surnamed Zhong, and I drank tea with you last time." β
Zhong Qi? What did he come to do?
The last time we met, they were quite polite, and they exchanged some information, but they were still very wary of each other. Although Zhong Qi hid deeply, she could detect the curiosity and fear that the other party had restrained under pretending to be calm.
He was afraid of himself, although he didn't know why, but after that time, Su Jianxing thought that they would never see each other again.
But I didn't expect this person to come to the door by himself again.
The disciple standing at the door was still waiting for a reply, and Su Jianxing did not hesitate, and said directly: "Since he is a guest, please invite him to come up." β
The disciple took the order and left, and it didn't take long for Zhong Qi to be brought over.
With just one glance, Su Jianxing could see that Zhong Qi's state was different from the previous side. After staring slightly, the eyebrows quickly loosened again, and her eyes were slightly curved, "Congratulations." β
I haven't seen it for just a few days, and Zhong Qi in front of him seems to have improved his cultivation by another level, and he is already at the peak of the late stage of the foundation building realm, which is equivalent to half a foot into the late stage of Jindan.
That's pretty fast. Su Jianxing thought so, and suddenly an extremely strange thought crossed her mindβwere there too many cultivation geniuses around her?
Zhong Qi didn't know what Su Jianxing was thinking at this moment, but he was obviously very happy about the progress of his cultivation in the past few days, and when he heard this, he hugged his fists and smiled: "Rejoice and rejoice." β
Su Jianxing retracted his thoughts and asked, "Why did you come to me today?" β
Zhong Qi opened his mouth to speak, but a figure flashed in the corner of his eye, and he immediately turned his head to look, and then he looked at Hu Jiao.
Zhong Qi was surprised: "This is ......"
When Hu Jiao saw him looking over, she immediately slapped the enchantment angrily, although she still couldn't speak, her mouth shape was obviously the word "save me".
"......" Zhong Qi was a little speechless, although he knew that it was not very polite to ask now, but since he saw it, he couldn't pretend to be blind, so he could only stubbornly say: "This, this is ......"
Su Jianxing held his hands and watched Hu Jiao stumble, and said with a smile: "Does Shangqing Hall know?" β
Zhong Qi immediately said: "I know, the sect ranked second among the ten sects of Immortal Mountain. While answering, he was still strange how to ask Shangqing Palace, but the next moment he knew why, because Su Jianxing said-
"This is the palm bead of the master of the Hu Hall of the Shangqing Palace, Hu Jiao." Su Jianxing nodded at Hu Jiao and said casually.
Hu, Hu Jiao? Zhong Qi's eyelids jumped.
Su Jianxing had been looking at him, and immediately saw the change in his face, turned his head and asked, "What?" Know? β
Zhong Qi was entangled for a moment, sighed, and remembered what he was going to say to Su Jianxing later, so he didn't plan to hide it too much, after thinking about it, he still asked cautiously first: "Can she hear us?" β
Su Jianxing raised her eyebrows, raised her hand, and a spiritual light emanated from her palm, sprinkled on the layer of enchantment trapped in Hu Jiao, lit up for a moment, and quickly disappeared.
"I can't hear it now." Su Jianxing urged him: "You can rest assured." Then he said, "Sit down and speak slowly." β
She also noticed that it seemed unusual for Zhong Qi to come to her, so she planned to listen to him slowly.
Although he is a little unaccustomed to having an irrelevant person in front of him, Zhong Qi is very adaptable and tells himself that the one in front of him is the villain in the original plot, but his current behavior is not even brutal, and he can only say that he is not so friendly to children.
But Hu Jiao doesn't seem to be a good stubble in the plot.
Let's eat black as black.
Thinking about it like this, it doesn't seem to be such an unacceptable thing, and I really feel much better.
Zhong Qi, who wanted to open his mind, also relaxed slightly, he looked away, fell on Su Jianxing, and said with a straight expression: "Su Daoyou, I have something to ask for." β
