Chapter 62: To Each His Own Heart

After that, it didn't seem smooth to go to the Sword Pavilion.

So far, there are two layers of crisis.

The first is the assassination that I overheard earlier.

Second, it was Mu Qingdu, the sub-pavilion master of the Shadow Pavilion, who would most likely carry out an assassination in the process of his departure this time.

There are wolves in front and tigers in the back, which are extremely tricky troubles, and just as he was about to think carefully about how to deal with it, Nan Ruijia, the second apprentice of the second elder, came over and greeted him cordially.

"Senior Brother Qi, long time no see."

As a brother who once lived under the same mountain peak, he is naturally familiar.

It's just that in the face of things like his stagnation in cultivation and severing the relationship, he also showed an attitude of not caring about himself, at most he occasionally encountered it when he passed by, and comforted him.

For this superficial relationship, Qi Mingchen will not think much about it, nor will he have any expectations for it.

Senior Brother Nan Ruijia's cultivation has reached the eighth layer of Jiedan, and he is the highest cultivation among the disciples of the second elder, and he can be regarded as a leader in the generation of the inner gate.

"Long time no see."

After all, this senior brother has never hurt him, and indifference is not a mistake for him, so he can also talk to the other party on the surface.

"I heard that after several twists and turns, you have kept the place that Master asked for you."

There are a lot of deep meanings hidden in these words, and the people around them who are chatting and discussing with each other have also vaguely noticed this.

"Who's going to say that?" Qi Mingchen asked, as long as the Second Elder was mentioned, he would inevitably have a sense of irritability in his heart.

Nan Ruijia was stunned for a moment, he didn't expect him to ask like this, and said with a dry smile: "Hahaha, I will chat with my junior brothers and sisters in my spare time, so I know." ”

"Thank you Senior Brother for always paying so much attention to Senior Brother." Qi Mingchen secretly stabbed back, leaving the other party speechless.

When this kind of thing is said, as long as you think about it carefully, you will find that it is tired.

Since the relationship is so good, why didn't you come out to help before? I've been paying attention to it all along, haven't I?

Nan Ruijia also thought of this, and said stiffly: "Before, the senior brother was busy, and occasionally had time to spare, after hearing about what happened to the junior brother, I also thought about helping, but the junior brother has the ability, and he got everything back on his own without waiting for the senior brother to make a move." ”

It made sense, and it sounded reasonable, barely recovering from the stiff atmosphere.

"Thank you, senior brother, for your appreciation." Qi Mingchen is not ready to tear his face, he just wants to stop the topic quickly.

"So, with your current talent, you will definitely be able to change back to the time when you first came to the sect in the future, and maybe the master will recognize you again, isn't it?"

As she said this, Nan Ruijia stared at him tightly, with a hint of nervousness in her eyes.

At this time, Qi Mingchen finally understood the significance of the other party and him coming to such a conversation.

Obviously, Nan Ruijia was afraid of him, for fear that he would return to the Second Elder in the future and threaten the status of his own disciple.

After all, as long as they reach the late stage of the Jiedan, the sect will not have any objections to who the elders choose as their own disciples.

At present, the eldest disciple Liu Minghua and the second disciple Nan Ruijia are both qualified to become personal disciples, but the second elder has not let go of his choice, as if he is waiting for something.

Based on Qi Mingchen's understanding of the second elder, it may be that the identity of this personal disciple was reserved for him.

He could think of this layer, how could others not think of it.

Once he goes back, the Second Elder is very likely to make a decision that when his strength reaches the late stage of the Jiedan, the personal disciple who has not been settled will fall on him.

How could Nan Ruijia be willing?

That's why I want to confirm, to confirm whether Qi Mingchen has the heart to go back.

Thinking of this, he smiled lightly, and his smile was not mixed with a trace of emotion, "Senior brother said that he laughed, there is no reason to change the things that have been set in stone, and there is no reason to change the broken branches, and there is no reason to put them back, isn't it?" ”

Hearing this, Nan Ruijia obviously relaxed, and comforted him: "Senior brother, don't be so sad, Master's original action was really helpless, don't blame him too much, it's just that Senior Brother has high ambitions, and Senior Brother also feels admired, the real strong will choose their own path!" ”

Qi Mingchen nodded perfunctorily, and looked lightly at the back of this senior brother who left with peace of mind after achieving his goal.

Finally solved a trouble, but I didn't expect that because he was in the limelight recently, another senior brother soon came over, who was the personal disciple of the fifth elder.

To be honest, he was not familiar with this person, he didn't even know the name, he only knew that it was a new personal disciple who had recently been established.

"Senior Brother Qi, I have admired the name for a long time, my name is Li Dao, and I am the third disciple in the sect."

"Hello." Qi Mingchen nodded expressionlessly, facing this person who didn't know the details, maybe a spy, he was not ready to be enthusiastic, and those who knew him knew that he had a cold temperament, so there was nothing special about this performance.

"I've heard about the junior brother, in fact, I have a doubt, and I hope the junior brother will answer it truthfully."

"What?" Qi Mingchen frowned, sure enough, this person must have come with a purpose, but he didn't expect to go straight to the point from the beginning, without even a temptation.

"I heard that the junior brother was once imprisoned in the back mountain, and everyone should know how dangerous it is, so I want to ask how the junior brother survived."

As the words fell, silence fell all around.

This question is not only Li Dao, but also something that everyone is curious about, no one will believe Qi Mingchen's excuse when he was in the trial competition, there must be another inside story if he survives.

"I think I've already answered it before, do you have any doubts?"

"This shouldn't be the case, for example, one of the most widely rumored speculations recently, junior brother, you are secretly helping someone, I don't know if it's true or not?"

Qi Mingchen secretly said that it is not good, this person is not good, it is obviously possible to use this matter to involve the collusion with other sects, and the road will definitely not be easy.

He directly showed an offended look, and said loudly: "Senior brother likes to explore junior brother's private words so much, why don't you tell junior brother first, you become the personal disciple of the fifth elder, is the process okay?" ”

Li Dao's face turned red, he didn't know how to answer, and left a sentence, "No secret can really be hidden, senior brother, this is for your good, everyone is a sect." ”

Then he turned and walked away, not approaching him again.

The others didn't seem to want to talk to him, and Romu, who had been beaten by him before, looked at him with a look that he couldn't understand.

Seeing that the surroundings finally asked for leave, he finally had time to think about the assassination.

At present, he didn't know the purpose of the Meteor Sect to assassinate them, and at present, among these people, in addition to Li Dao, there were any spies of the Meteor Sect.

On the premise of not understanding these problems, his trip to the Sword Pavilion will fall into passivity.

At the same time, he had asked Liu Minghua to go to the Shadow Pavilion to cancel his assassination, but the result was not beyond his expectations.

Failed.

Mu Qingdu refused to cancel the entrustment, and explained that if he forcibly canceled, he would have to pay half of the fee.

The value of a sub-pavilion of the Shadow Pavilion in the late stage of the day after tomorrow is something that Liu Minghua would not dare to think of, so the assassination will definitely be carried out.

The timing of the assassination is estimated to be when he appears alone.

The destination is a very close location to the Sword Pavilion, where all the sects with quotas will gather, there are so many third-rank sects there, it is impossible for the Meteor Sect to blatantly carry out assassinations there.

The quota holder of the Meteor Sect should not participate in it, and the time will conflict.

The most likely situation is that the other people of the Meteor Sect will be ambushed on the road, and while everyone is not paying attention, they will join forces and kill all of them.

It's just that there will be an outer gate elder from the day after tomorrow to escort it in a while.

If you want to be so perfect, there will inevitably be several acquired people who will be able to crush them.

Of course, it cannot be ruled out that the elders are also spies.

It's terrible, hopefully not to that extent.

Qi Mingchen took a route in his mind, and suddenly thought of something in his mind, and the corners of his mouth were slightly hooked.

He thought of a perfect cope.

……

Just as Qi Mingchen was thinking, the elder of the outer gate walked over, it was an elder who was not very familiar, it seemed that he was in charge of the library pavilion, perhaps the reason why he often managed the library pavilion, the whole person looked lazy, and a strong sense of exhaustion and perfunctory could be seen in every move.

"It seems that everyone is ready, when I send you all to the place, I will come back and go."

As the Elder's words fell, the procession began to depart.

Everyone was traveling on horseback, and they got close to chat in twos and threes, and Luo Mu, who had been ignoring him, suddenly came over and asked him: "This trip will not be safe, among all people, in fact, I only believe you." ”

Qi Mingchen glanced at this person, thinking that this Senior Brother Luo was very good at kidnapping him with the harmony of the sect before, and he also slapped him, and now he said that he only believed him.

I don't know what kind of medicine is sold in Romu gourd.

It's just that this trip is not safe, but it was said that it is indeed unsafe on this road.

"Do you remember the last time I fought with someone from the Meteor Sect, and I almost died at the hands of that person?"

Qi Mingchen naturally remembered, but he was not ready to pay attention to the other party.

"Actually, I know some insiders, I have been in the sect for a long time, longer than the chief senior brother Xu Yun, I have heard that the two sects have only seen a tragic struggle."

This thing caught his attention, he had never heard of such a thing, and when it came to the Meteor Sect, the sect was indeed a little taboo, and most of the time he was reluctant to mention it.

Seeing that he turned his head sideways, Romu continued:

"It is said that it is to compete for a Xuan-level magic weapon, our sect has lost three inner sect elders, and the inner disciples have also died a lot, after the matter is over, the sect strictly prohibits everyone from talking about this matter, and violators will be severely punished, this incident has happened for more than thirty years, I actually only heard a little bit by chance, I haven't been in contact, and I guess I won't know these ...... at all."
