Chapter XXXVIII.

"Uncle, I'm going to participate in this door-to-door competition. ”

Ting'er looked directly at Xu Qingfan with her eyes and said softly.

Although Ting'er rarely said a complete sentence to Xu Qingfan this time, Xu Qingfan was only surprised in his heart.

Although the current elders of Jiuhua are more or less aware of Ting'er's existence and ability, and even in order to prevent accidents, Xu Qingfan has even explained the reason for Ting'er's change to Zhang Hualing, so Ting'er participated in the big competition in the door, and the elders will never treat Ting'er as a "rebel evildoer" for the sake of Xu Qingfan's face, at least it will not be revealed on his face.

But Xu Qingfan still didn't want Ting'er to participate in Jiuhua's intra-door competition.

It's not that I'm worried that Ting'er's cultivation is not good, you must know that although Ting'er is only in the middle stage of spiritual silence now, among the disciples who participated in the newcomer competition this time, although she is not top-notch, she is definitely outstanding. What's more, the black magic fire cultivated by Ting'er is extremely powerful, and it is slightly better than Xu Qingfan's dead qi, Xu Qingfan believes that as long as there is no peerless genius like Feng Qingtian among the disciples who participated in the competition this time, Ting'er has a great chance of winning the championship in one fell swoop.

But it is precisely because the power of the magic fire cultivated by Ting'er is greater than the domineering that Xu Qingfan hesitates about Ting'er's participation in the door competition, and is even a little afraid, afraid that this door competition will cause Ting'er any harm.

This kind of injury naturally does not mean that he was injured in the competition ring, as far as Xu Qingfan knew, among the disciples below the Jiuhua Dan stage, there were very few who could hurt Ting'er. Xu Qingfan was worried that because Ting'er's black magic fire power was too domineering, I was afraid that there were few disciples in Jiuhua Mountain who could be Ting'er's triad enemy. Coupled with the strange black flame pattern on Ting'er's face, as long as Ting'er makes a move, I am afraid that it will irrepressibly cause panic among the low-level disciples of Jiuhua. And once this panic is seen by Ting'er, it is unimaginable what effect and damage it will cause. It can be expected that once Ting'er is now afraid of herself, I am afraid that her personality has gradually improved, and she will fall into loneliness again. This is something that Xu Qingfan absolutely does not want to see.

Although Ting'er has been cultivating immortals with Xu Qingfan for fifty years, although Ting'er's strength can be called invincible among the monks in the Silent Period, in Xu Qingfan's opinion, no matter how Ting'er changes, she is the helpless and thin little girl who stood quietly next to Na Xiu's corpse fifty years ago, gently calling "Daddy". So I always subconsciously avoid Ting'er getting along with outsiders. is afraid that Ting'er will be hurt.

So as soon as he heard Ting'er's request to participate in the big competition in the door, Xu Qingfan subconsciously wanted to object.

But when Xu Qingfan saw Ting'er's eyes, he couldn't help but be stunned, in Ting'er's cold eyes, there was a rare extremely complicated feeling, which was persistence. And the craving.

In just a moment, Xu Qingfan understood Ting'er's thoughts at this time. Even Ting'er herself doesn't understand the idea.

Ting'er wants to participate in the competition in the door this time, in addition to wanting to test her strength with her peers, I'm afraid the bigger reason is because Ting'er wants to get out of Xu Qingfan's cave mansion and can get in touch with people outside the cave, right?

Over the years, especially after Liu Huaxiang passed away, Ting'er and Xu Qingfan returned to the cave in the back mountain, and lived for thirty years, during which Xu Qingfan spent most of his time cultivating, and the only place that could accompany Ting'er. There is only Xiaobi, a demon beast who doesn't understand people's hearts and can't speak. In the long run, even a naturally withdrawn person like Ting'er will yearn for the scene of people coming and going, right?

It's just that this yearning is just hidden in the deepest part of Ting'er's heart, and even Ting'er herself doesn't feel it, right?

Before meeting Xu Qingfan. Although Ting'er is still lonely, she is surrounded by countless barbarian people as companions, and after Xu Qingfan brought Ting'er to Jiuhua Mountain, in addition to teaching Ting'er to cultivate immortals, why didn't she inadvertently isolate Ting'er from the outside world, bringing endless loneliness to Ting'er?

"I've always wanted to change Ting'er's silent and withdrawn character, but I haven't made much progress, maybe the biggest reason is not Ting'er's stubbornness, but I protect Ting'er too closely?

Come to think of it. Xu Qingfan nodded slightly, and said, "Okay, this time you can participate in the big competition in the door, but although I believe in your control over the Dao Law, I still have a word of advice." Your black magic fire is too powerful. If you are not careful, it will hurt people. So try to avoid it. And that's, if you can. I hope you try not to make your advantage too obvious in the competition, and save some face for others, okay?"

Hearing Xu Qingfan's promise, Ting'er's eyes flashed imperceptibly with a hint of joy, and then nodded slightly, indicating that she knew.

Looking at Ting'er's appearance, Xu Qingfan sighed slightly in his heart, and then pointed at Ting'er with his hand, and saw that the space around Ting'er's face suddenly distorted slightly, and then instantly returned to normal. Looking at Ting'er's face at this time, the terrifying black flames that were originally all over her face suddenly disappeared, making Ting'er's skin more snow-white and clean, and when you look closely, it makes people feel even more beautiful that they can't breathe.

This is not to say that Xu Qingfan can actually remove the black flame pattern on Ting'er's face, but it is just a small illusion, but Xu Qingfan already has the cultivation of the middle stage of the Void Pill at this time, as long as he cultivates as a monk under the Formation Dan stage, he will not be able to perceive the illusion performed by Xu Qingfan at all.

After doing this qiē, Xu Qingfan said with a smile: "This illusion can be maintained for about a month, don't remove her, understand?"

Ting'er nodded slightly, and said softly, "Understood." ”

Xu Qingfan said again: "There are about ten days left before the big competition in the door today, you go back and prepare well." As for the competition, I'll arrange it for you. ”

Ting'er nodded, didn't say anything more, and just turned around and went back to the house with Xiaobi.

"Ting'er, I hope my decision this time won't hurt you. Hopefully, this big competition will help you. ”

Looking at Ting'er's petite back, Xu Qingfan sighed secretly in his heart. Occur.

As long as Ting'er doesn't show her strength, Xu Qingfan used illusion to cover the black flame pattern on Ting'er's face, it stands to reason that Ting'er should not have any accidents even if she participates in the big competition in the door, but at this moment, Xu Qingfan's heart still has some uneasiness.

Suddenly, Xu Qingfan laughed at himself, shook his head, and thought again: "What am I worried about, Ting'er is no longer a child." Everything should be experienced by her, and everything is thought of for her, which is not good for her future growth. If Uncle Liu is still here, I'm afraid that when he sees me like this, he will scold my mother-in-law and mother again, and mislead people's children, right?"

In self-deprecation, Xu Qingfan also turned around and went back to the house. I continued to cultivate.

It seemed like it was just a moment, and ten days passed in a blink of an eye. According to Zhang Hualing, it has been a full year since the day when the big competition in the door was carried out as usual.

On this day, Xu Qingfan ended his retreat earlier than ever before, standing quietly in the courtyard, looking up at the stars and moon that had not completely disappeared, and his mind seemed to return to sixty years ago in an instant. It seems that he was born yesterday, but in the blink of an eye, a jiazi has passed, and the ignorant young man of the year looked at the elders on the main stage with admiration. I always feel like I'll never reach that height. But after a Jiazi passed, that young man was already the fourth person in Jiuhua Mountain at this time, responsible for all the affairs of Dabi in the door.

In a very clichéd phrase, it is "recalling all kinds of experiences in the past, Xu Qingfan can't help but feel a lot of emotion in his heart." Although it is cliché, it is appropriate to describe Xu Qingfan's current state.

The disciples who participated in the big competition in the door with Xu Qingfan back then, and even the Jiuhua disciples who were opponents with Xu Qingfan, such as Feng Qingtian, Jin Qinghan, Lu Qingshang, Dongfang Qingling, Li Yuhan, and Sheng Yushan, all reached the realm of knotting. became the elders of Jiuhua Mountain, but I don't know if they will have the same emotion as Xu Qingfan when they think back at this time?

Thinking back on the past, successes and failures, joys and sorrows, Xu Qingfan suddenly had a feeling of time being lost. For a while, I couldn't tell whether I was in the past or the present. It's in this memory. The sky is white, and the stars and moon are gone. Squeak, a knock on the door suddenly came from behind Xu Qingfan.

Xu Qingfan turned his head to look, but it was Ting'er who pushed the door out of the room.

Xu Qingfan smiled at Ting'er and asked, "Ting'er, are you ready?"

After seeing Ting'er nodding, Xu Qingfan smiled and said, "Then let's go." ”

As he spoke, an auspicious cloud suddenly rose from under Xu Qingfan's feet, and he flew towards the location of the Hualing Hall in Qianshan first. And Ting'er also made the "Wanli Cloud" follow closely. The two of them lived extremely quickly, and they disappeared into the mountains behind Jiuhua after a while.

In Xu Qingfan's view, the significance of this intra-sect competition is actually more important in addition to selecting outstanding disciples and increasing the combat experience of a group of disciples. That is to boost the morale of all the monks in Jiuhua Mountain.

Since the rebellion of Zhou Huahai and the attack of Zhang Xusheng fifty years ago, the vitality of Jiuhua Mountain has been greatly damaged, and the disciples and even the elders in the sect are also demoralized.

And now after the start of the big competition in the door, and then look at the square in front of the Hualing Hall in front of Jiuhua, it seems that the excitement of the past has been restored at this time, whether it is the Jiuhua disciples who have signed up for the big competition in the door or not, they are all gathered at this time, laughing and talking, arguing about who will win and who will win the championship among the disciples who participated in the competition, and who will eventually win the championship, although everyone has their own candidates in mind, it seems that no one can convince anyone, but the disciples are still interested in this kind of debate.

In addition, the scenery of Jiuhua at this time has been restored to the scenery of the immortal family in the past, so at a cursory glance, it seems that Jiuhua Mountain has regained its prosperity sixty years ago.

In this bustle, Xu Qingfan and Ting'er came to the mountain square in front of Jiuhua.

After the two of them fell to the ground, everyone around them looked at the two of them, to be precise, towards Ting'er.

After being covered by Xu Qingfan's face with those dark flame patterns, Ting'er is a peerless beauty who has captivated the country and the city, although there is less treacherous temptation and amazing, but there are more points of tranquility and pure beauty, so as soon as she saw Ting'er, everyone involuntarily ignored Xu Qingfan beside her, just staring at Ting'er for a while, some male disciples with slightly worse concentration even looked at Ting'er without blinking, and their expressions were sluggish.

After a long time, everyone saw that the passer-by next to the peerless beauty turned out to be Xu Qingfan, the deacon elder of Jiuhua Mountain, and they couldn't help but be embarrassed, and they all bowed to Xu Qingfan, their heads hanging very low, and their faces were ashamed. But the corners of his eyes still involuntarily looked at Ting'er secretly, making Xu Qingfan smile bitterly.

Seeing that Ting'er looked a little dazed in the midst of many gazes, with some anger in her eyes, Xu Qingfan patted Ting'er's shoulder with pity, and said softly: "You are just waiting here for the competition to start, and my uncle is going to the main stage." ”

Seeing a hint of confusion flashing in Ting'er's eyes, Xu Qingfan flashed a trace of unbearability in his heart, but thinking of the previous decision to let Ting'er face these decisions to change her personality alone, she forcibly endured the pity in her heart, and just couldn't help but say: "If you can, make more friends." ”

After finishing speaking, Xu Qingfan didn't look at Ting'er again, and Yuyun was about to fly in the direction of the main platform, but his body just flew away, but he couldn't help but say to Ting'er again: "Those guys who watched you drool just now, even if they take the initiative to talk, don't pay attention, understand?"

After seeing Ting'er nodding, Xu Qingfan left with confidence.

On the main stage, Jin Qinghan, Lu Qingshang, Dongfang Qingling and other acquaintances were already sitting in their places and had been waiting for a long time.
