Deep within the forest, in a remote campsite.
Many tents had appeared in this place. They were all brought over by the universe's martial artists as a temporary place to camp.
The largest tent was the size of a house, and many people were gathered there at the moment.
At that moment, Chang Xuan and the other Soaring Cloud Sect disciples brought Xia Ping and Liu Rulan over. They had traveled a long distance and ran for a full two hours before arriving.
"This is where the extraterrestrial demons gather?!"
Liu Rulan followed Xia Ping, feeling nervous. She had never been to such a terrifying place in her life. There were extraterrestrial demons everywhere, and it was basically a gathering place for demons.
If there was even the slightest mistake, he would probably die and his Dao would disappear.
Fortunately, Xia Ping was there to hold the fort. Otherwise, she would not have dared to come to such a terrifying place. Of course, without Xia Ping, she would not have known that such a gathering place existed.
However, the atmosphere was heavy at the moment. Many of them were staring at Xia Ping and Liu Rulan with a mocking look on their faces.
"Chang Xuan, what's the meaning of this?"
The one who spoke was a young man in a white robe. He said, "We noticed that you're disciples of the Soaring Cloud Sect, so you're more or less capable. That's why we invited you to do this business."
"But you brought two strangers here. One of them is a powerless wandering cultivator, and the other is a native of the Blood Soul Mainland. Are you f * cking kidding me?!"
He was a disciple of the Returning Cloud Sect. His name was Feng Ze, and he was at the peak of the Fulfillment Realm. He spoke arrogantly.
The others were disciples of the Soaring Cloud Sect, the Returning Cloud Sect, the Flying Celestial Sect, and the Five Elements Sect. They were all from famous righteous sects, and they had powerful forces backing them up.
Moreover, they were all powerful and confident in themselves to dare to participate in the Blood Soul Mainland's mission.
"Feng Ze, please believe me. Brother Wu is a wandering cultivator, but he's not weak. He'll be of great help to our mission," Chang Xuan hurriedly explained.
"Benefits my ass."
Feng Zhe sneered. "We're all disciples from famous righteous sects. He's the only wandering cultivator who can't even join a sect. What kind of strength does a piece of trash like him have?"
"Truth be told, we have over a hundred of us, all of whom are at least Fulfillment realm and seven or eight early divine-tier cultivators. Why don't you tell us how we'll benefit from this brat joining us?"
His attitude was very arrogant, and it was obvious that he had a great prejudice against Xia Ping, who was a wandering cultivator. His contempt was obvious.
In the universe, the disparity between levels was even stricter. If one was a rogue cultivator, they would be seen as someone without any strength or background, and anyone could bully them.
To put it in an exaggerated way, individual cultivators were basically jobless, equivalent to beggars without a university degree. They could only do some manual labor to support themselves. Apart from that, they had no other skills.
As for those who came from a prestigious sect, they were equivalent to students who had graduated from a prestigious university. How could such people treat unemployed people differently?!
"It's not beneficial to us, but it's beneficial to him."
"Originally, it would have been extremely difficult for him to complete the missions of the Blood Soul Mainland by himself. However, after joining us, he'll be able to ride on our coattails and rise rapidly."
"He wants to cling to our thighs, but whether or not we let him is another matter."
"If he kneels down and kowtows, maybe I'll consider it."
Many people sneered. They crossed their arms in front of their chests and looked at Xia Ping mockingly.
"You!"
Chang Xuan and the others were very angry. They did not expect that they would be looked down upon and ridiculed by this group of people who had kindly brought an expert to join them.
"Chang Xuan, for the sake of the Soaring Clouds Sect, I can temporarily let go of this matter. However, it's a little too much for you to let a rogue cultivator join us and drag us down. This is not a game of house, but a battle of life and death. If we're not careful, we'll all die. "
"That's right. Moreover, he has a native of the Blood Soul Mainland with him. Although she's a slave, who knows if she'll leak the news to other natives of the Blood Soul Mainland? Once the news gets out, we'll all be finished."
"A person who suddenly appeared out of nowhere is not trustworthy at all."
Several people shouted, expressing that they did not accept Xia Ping joining them. To them, not only did this kid have no strength, but he also posed a great risk.
No matter how they looked at it, they felt that Xia Ping joining them would not bring them any benefits. On the contrary, there were many disadvantages.
"Scram."
Feng Zhe waved his hand as if he was shooing away a fly. "Don't stay here. You're an eyesore. Being with someone like you is simply polluting the air here. "
"Brother Wu."
Chang Xuan and the others looked at Xia Ping apologetically. They had initially wanted to bring Xia Ping into the team out of goodwill, but they did not expect something like this to happen and Xia Ping to be humiliated.
"It's alright. Since you don't want me to join, I won't join you. It's no big deal." Xia Ping looked indifferent. He was not affected at all.
True strength came from himself. The contempt of others could not hurt him at all.
To him, meeting this team was just an accident. Since they did not want him to join and their attitude was very unfriendly, there was no need for him to stay in this place.
He turned to leave with Liu Rulan as he thought about this.
"Wait, kid. You can leave, but the woman beside you has to stay," Feng Ze suddenly said. He looked at Liu Rulan maliciously with a greedy look in his eyes.
The few young men around him snickered.
What?!
Chang Xuan and the others were shocked as they looked at Feng Zhe in disbelief. They knew what Feng Zhe was planning right away. He obviously had his eyes on the woman beside Xia Ping and wanted to snatch her.
Liu Rulan's heart skipped a beat. She had been on high alert just now. She did not expect an accident to happen after hearing that she could leave. She was stopped on the spot.
With so many extraterritorial demons present, it would be difficult for her to escape even if she wanted to.
"What do you mean?"
Xia Ping stopped in his tracks and turned to look at Feng Zhe. He squinted his eyes and revealed a dangerous aura.
"I mean exactly what I said. This woman is a native of the Blood Soul Mainland and is also our enemy. Who knows if she'll leak the news to other natives?"
Feng Zhe said matter-of-factly, "Therefore, to prevent the news from leaking and any accidents, she has to stay here. She can only be returned to you after this mission is over."
The others were watching the show. They knew what would happen if Liu Rulan was really left here for a night.
