These days, they had been in a stalemate. Lu Pingan was in charge of the negotiation. Seeing that Chen Dongcheng's breath was getting weaker day by day, Lu Pingan became more and more anxious. It could be said that he was looking forward to this personal disciple who could take on a big responsibility to bring him good news as soon as possible. Unfortunately, this time his hope was obviously going to fail again.
"Reporting to Master, not yet." Lu Pingan was a little embarrassed. Not only did Chen Jiu have high hopes for him, but he was also ready to show his skills these days. After all, his direct opponent was Xin Yijie, who was almost the most unattractive person among all the high-level Gold Core Stage cultivators in the Green Cloud Sect in the north island.
Whether in terms of strength, status, or shrewdness, Lu Pingan believed that he could at least leave the other party behind by ten streets. However, he did not expect that such a sloppy and ordinary good guy would suddenly become an impervious old fox after sitting at the negotiating table. No matter what strategy he used, it would always be kicked back to his feet in the end.
That was not all. The key was that Xin Yijie did not just kick the ball around. Every time, he was reasonable and eloquent, which made Lu Pingan unable to find any room to refute. Every time, he could only sigh.
Xin Yijie, you can't judge a book by its cover.
"You're too slow." Chen Jiu's eyes were somewhat unfathomable. Although it was said that there was no need to be suspicious of a person, and the other party was also his most successful pro-disciple, so there was nothing to be suspicious about. However, he was naturally suspicious, and after a long time, it was inevitable that he would have doubts. Moreover, from Lu Pingan's standpoint, there was indeed a motive in this regard. After all, if Chen Dongcheng was really exhausted to death, Lu Pingan was likely to be the biggest beneficiary.
"Yes, I'm sorry to disappoint you. I will speed up the negotiation and buy time for Deputy Leader Chen." Lu Pingan was frightened by this sentence and quickly showed his loyalty.
"Tell me, what's wrong?" Chen Jiu glanced at him. At this time, although Lu Pingan was not seriously injured, he was unprecedentedly embarrassed. Looking at the whole Green Cloud Sect in the north island, there were very few people who could threaten him, an expert at the peak of the late Gold Core Stage, unless Lin Yi took action himself.
"Yes, Bing Wuqing from the Snow Sword Sect came to visit and asked to see Lin Yi. After I refused, she changed her request. She wants to see you, Master." Lu Pingan said respectfully.
"Bing Wuqing?" Hearing this, Chen Jiu thought for a moment and vaguely had an impression of it. He casually said, "Isn't it just a young boy who just entered the Gold Core stage? Just send him away. Do you need to report such a trivial matter?"
"Uh, that's what I thought in the beginning. But that won't do. He's a newly advanced Original Infant Stage expert. I can't chase him away …" Lu Pingan could only smile bitterly.
"What? Original Soul Stage? " Even Chen Jiu couldn't help but be shocked when he heard this. The birth of any new Nascent Soul Old Monster was a big event that could shake the entire Immemorial Martial Arts World. Due to the great difficulty of breaking through to the Nascent Soul Realm, it was impossible to achieve it without a few years' time. Normally, they would have received news of it in advance. How could this fellow succeed without a word? Moreover, Bing Wuqing was so young. Could it be a smokescreen?
Seeing Chen Jiu's doubts, Lu Ping 'an hurriedly said, "It's true, this disciple and a few other elders have personally felt his aura, he is indeed a Nascent Soul expert, there is no doubt about this."
"Lead the way," Chen Jiu said solemnly. There was no way Lu Ping would lie to him about something like this. Since he had confirmed that the other party was a Nascent Soul Old Monster, he had to make a personal appearance. Otherwise, Lu Ping wouldn't be able to handle it alone. He wasn't qualified.
Very soon, Chen Jiu appeared in front of Bing Wuqing. He stepped forward and chuckled. "Everyone says that Bing Wuqing of the Snow Sword Faction is a super genius that no one has ever seen before and will ever see again. I didn't quite believe it in the past, but today, I have no choice but to believe it. If I remember correctly, my young friend, Wuqing, is probably the youngest Nascent Soul expert in the history of the Immemorial Martial Arts World. Congratulations!"
"You flatter me. I'm not the youngest. The legendary figure of your faction who is known as the Great Emperor should be younger than me, right?" Bing Wuqing asked seriously.
"…" Chen Jiu's smile immediately became a little awkward. He had said those words of praise just to warm up a little. Who knew that the other party would be so unreasonable as to directly refute him to his face. She was indeed young.
"I'd like to pay a visit to the Immemorial Martial Granduncle Lin Yi of your faction. Just now, he said that he needed you, the Grand Supreme Elder, to personally make a decision. I wonder if you can fulfill this small request of mine?" Bing Wuqing went straight to the point.
"This …" On the surface, he pretended to be hesitant, but in fact, Chen Jiu couldn't help but start cursing in his heart. Bing Wuqing was a hothead who didn't know the rules at all. Not only did she completely ignore the established rules of visiting, but even her tone was so stiff. How did this person suddenly become a Nascent Soul expert?
However, cursing aside, Chen Jiu couldn't show it on his face. After all, the other party was an out-and-out Nascent Soul expert. Compared to her, even if he was a little stronger, he didn't dare to directly fall out with her. What if both of them were injured?
Moreover, even if he could kill Bing Wuqing on the spot, he would definitely be severely injured. But don't forget, other than Bing Wuqing, there was another veteran Nascent Soul old monster in the Snow Sword Faction. If he came looking for revenge, how was he going to deal with them?
In the small Immemorial Underworld, every Nascent Soul old monster was equivalent to a nuclear weapon in the secular world. They definitely couldn't be attacked easily. Otherwise, a careless move could lead to a world war that wouldn't end until one side was wiped out. For every sect involved, that would be an unbearable disaster.
"You're the Grand Supreme Elder, are you going to say that you don't have this authority?" Bing Wuqing asked with a frown.
"Haha, my young friend, you must be joking. Of course I have this authority. However, it just so happens that Lin Yi is in seclusion at the Ascending Heaven Cliff right now. Even I can't rashly interrupt him. Otherwise, there might be unimaginable consequences. In my opinion, if my young friend really wants to see the Immemorial Martial Granduncle, why don't you wait a little longer?" Chen Jiu tried to beat around the bush.
"Wait?" Bing Wuqing raised her eyebrows.
"That's right. My young friend, you've never been to the Blue Cloud Sect of the north island. During this period of time, you can travel around and experience the local customs of the north island. When the Immemorial Martial Granduncle comes out of seclusion, I'll send someone to inform you immediately. What do you think, my young friend?" Chen Jiu suggested.
