After all, he was not only powerful and experienced, but more importantly, he had the solid backing of the Highest Elder. In this aspect, the other Gold Core Stage seniors could only look up to him.
Looking at this scene, Bing Wuqing became more and more suspicious, because she didn't see Xin Yijie. Logically speaking, Xin Yijie was the one who had the closest relationship with Lin Yi among all the senior members of Green Cloud Sect in the north island, and he had also dealt with her before. Logically speaking, Xin Yijie should be the most suitable person to receive her at this time, so why didn't he even show his face?
"Bing Wuqing, my little friend, you've come from afar. Please forgive us for not going out to welcome you." Lu Pingan smiled and cupped his hands in greeting, behaving extremely politely. At least from his point of view, he was already very polite. Even if Bing Wuqing was also a Golden Core expert, she was still a junior to him. Addressing her as a young friend was already a form of flattery.
Little did he know that Bing Wuqing was not even in the Gold Core Stage now. He wasn't giving her face at all, but was trying to flatter himself …
"It's okay." Bing Wuqing didn't care about this at all. Her reputation meant nothing to her, and she had never considered such things. She went straight to the point and said, "Can I pay a visit to your Grandmaster Lin Yi now?"
"May I ask if there's anything special, my little friend Bing Wuqing? Is this your personal wish, or the wish of your sect? "Lu Pingan asked tentatively.
"Personal," Bing Wuqing said directly.
Lu Pingan raised his eyebrows, looked at the other Gold Core Stage seniors beside him, and breathed a sigh of relief. If Bing Wuqing came to visit Lin Yi on behalf of the Snow Sword Sect, it would be a big problem for them. After all, it was likely that Lin Yi had a close relationship with the Snow Sword Sect. If they wanted to deal with Lin Yi, they would have to consider the feelings of the Snow Sword Sect.
Fortunately, this was Bing Wuqing's personal matter, so there was nothing to worry about.
"I'm sorry, but Grandmaster Lin Yi is currently in seclusion. I'm afraid you've made a wasted trip. Please go back." Lu Pingan immediately asked her to leave without hesitation.
"Seclusion?" Bing Wuqing frowned even more. If she hadn't sensed something strange just now, she might have believed it. But at this moment, his intuition told him that there was definitely a problem.
As an expert, especially a super genius like Bing Wuqing, her instincts had always been extremely sharp.
"Not bad. Grandmaster Lin Yi has been in seclusion ever since he arrived here, and no one dares to disturb him. Hence, if my young friend Bing Wuqing wishes to visit him, I'm afraid you'll have to wait for the next opportunity, "Lu Pingan said with an apologetic look on his face. He looked rather sincere.
Unfortunately, Bing Wuqing obviously wouldn't give up so easily. He glanced at Lu Pingan and said, "Take me to the Ascending Heaven Cliff."
"Huh?" Lu Pingan was stunned for a moment. The other party's tone really confused him. Rather than saying it was a request, it sounded more like a condescending order. Was there something wrong with this guy's brain?
It was understandable that a talented genius like Bing Wuqing would be a little arrogant, but the problem was that this wasn't the Snow Sword Sect, but the Blue Cloud Sect of the north island. She had come all the way to the Blue Cloud Sect of the north island to act like a tyrant. Didn't he think about the consequences of his actions?
Moreover, even if Bing Wuqing's attitude was better and she made a request in a proper manner, Lu Pingan would never agree, because the request itself was already out of line.
Although the Ascending Heaven Cliff was mostly used to imprison special people, it was a place of great significance to the Blue Cloud Sect of the north island. Apart from the high-level Golden Core cultivators, even the disciples of the sect couldn't easily approach it, let alone open it to an outsider like Bing Wuqing.
Moreover, Lin Yi was currently imprisoned on the Ascending Heaven Cliff. Now was the time for the standoff, so how could Lu Pingan allow an outsider like Bing Wuqing to see him?
"I'm sorry, but the Ascending Heaven Cliff is a forbidden area of the Blue Cloud Sect of the north island. Even the disciples of the sect can't approach it casually. Your request is a little too much. " If it weren't for the other party's identity, Lu Pingan would have definitely started to chase her away without hesitation. However, she was after all a genius who used to be unparalleled in the Snow Sword Sect of the middle island. If he embarrassed her too much, it would be equivalent to humiliating the entire Snow Sword Sect to a certain extent. He didn't want to cause such unnecessary trouble.
"The Ascending Heaven Cliff is a forbidden area?" Bing Wuqing raised her eyebrows. The more the other party tried to deny it, the more suspicious she became. However, she couldn't just fall out with him before figuring out the specific situation. She glanced at Lu Pingan and said, "Does this mean you can't make the decision?"
The corner of Lu Pingan's eye twitched, and an inexplicable anger rose in his heart. What kind of contemptuous look was that? She was too condescending!
"That's right." Lu Pingan still didn't fall out with her. Holding back his anger, he said, "If you want to let people enter the Ascending Heaven Cliff forbidden area, you have to at least have the right to decide. However, it just so happens that our sect leader and deputy sect leader are both busy, so we can't do it for the time being."
Lu Pingan was already very well-mannered to be able to say this much. If it were anyone else, even if they didn't fall out with her face to face, they would definitely leave in a huff. Bing Wuqing, you're just a new junior, why are you acting like a big boss here?
"What about the Grand Supreme Elder? Your Grand Supreme Elder should have the right to do so, right? Take me to him, "Bing Wuqing said smoothly.
"What?" Lu Pingan and the others were collectively dumbfounded when they heard this. They looked at each other for a moment, then said, "You want to see our Grand Supreme Elder?"
"Yes, you're not going to tell me that your Grand Supreme Elder isn't here either, are you?" Bing Wuqing asked casually.
"The Grand Supreme Elder is here, and he does have the right to do so, but he's the stabilizing force of our Blue Cloud Sect in the north island. How can you, an outsider, meet him just because you say so? Do you think that your Grand Supreme Elder will agree to meet anyone who comes and asks to see your Snow Sword Sect's Grand Supreme Elder? "Lu Pingan's face was tinged with sarcasm, and the other Gold Core Stage higher-ups also looked contemptuous.
Was there something wrong with this guy's brain? Asking to see the Grand Supreme Elder as soon as he opened his mouth? Did he really think that the Blue Cloud Sect in the north island belonged to his family?
"That depends on who it is." Bing Wuqing wasn't angry about this. People like her, who were extremely rational and pragmatic, rarely got angry with others. What was the use of getting angry?
Besides, they were on a different level now, so she wouldn't get angry easily.
