"Senior Brother Liu, it's like this …" Calan seemed to have made up her mind. After a slight sigh, she told everything about Luo Yuan's marriage proposal without hiding anything.
Liu Ming looked at Calan with a dumbfounded expression. When he heard that the woman had a dual cultivation agreement with him, his face suddenly showed a strange expression, but he quickly recovered his calmness.
"… Please forgive me for using Brother Liu as an excuse. At that time, my mind was in a mess and I didn't have time to think too much. I just wanted to shut that person's mouth, but I didn't expect him to propose a four-person competition." When Jia Lan spoke to this point, a faint blush appeared on both sides of her cheeks, and she spoke apologetically.
"Junior Sister Calan, you don't have to feel guilty. You and I are old friends. This is just a small matter, you don't have to worry about it." Liu Ming said slowly.
"Thank you, Brother Liu." Calan was happy when she heard this. She immediately got up and bowed, but then she showed a look of hesitation.
How could Liu Ming know what she wanted to say? He waved his hand to let her sit down and said:
"Junior Sister Jia Lan, you have come this time to invite me to fight and help you deal with that Wen Ai, right?"
"Among all the inner sect disciples that Brother Liu knows, you're the strongest. Moreover, this competition can only be fought by those who have a connection. I can only be thick-skinned and ask Brother Liu to help me again. " Hearing that there was no clear refusal in Liu Ming's tone, Calan was happy, and she hurriedly said with a hint of pleading.
After listening, Liu Ming did not answer immediately. Instead, he pondered on the chair.
According to his usual character, he would naturally avoid this kind of troublesome thing. But now that Calan was in a dilemma, if he really didn't care about it, the result would be self-evident.
At the thought of Calan being forced to marry a stranger, Liu Ming felt a little uncomfortable.
But after all, this wasn't as simple as fighting with Wen Ai. As long as he agreed to help, it would be equivalent to becoming enemies with the Plague Peak of Illusion and Destruction Peak. Not only that, it would also involve Wen Ge, a Celestial Phenomenon Realm Elder.
When Liu Ming thought of this, he couldn't make up his mind.
"I know that this matter has put Brother Liu in a difficult position. As long as Brother Liu is willing to help me this time, I have accumulated a lot of spirit stones over the years. I also have the medicinal pills that Master has bestowed upon me …" Calan suddenly took out a leather bag and a few jade bottles. She stared at Liu Ming with a pitiful gaze.
When Liu Ming saw how flustered Calan was, for some reason, his heart softened. He sighed and made a decision.
"Junior Martial Sister, there's no need for that. I'll help you this time. I don't lack these worldly possessions. Junior Sister, you should keep them. "
"Thank you very much, Brother Liu! This time, I owe Senior Martial Brother a favor. I will definitely repay you in the future. "Calan was overjoyed when she heard this. Then, she bit her lips and said gratefully.
"Since that's the case, can junior please tell me more about the battle and the matter of Wen Ai." Liu Ming nodded and suddenly changed the topic.
"Yes, this battle is scheduled for half a month later at the Ethereal Peak …" When Calan heard this, she became spirited and quickly began to narrate to Liu Ming.
Half a day passed in a flash. When the sun set, the woman bid farewell and left Liu Ming's cave house.
Just as Liu Ming and Calan were discussing this matter, the news that Liu Ming would not hesitate to fight with Wen Ai and Wen An for the sake of Calan of the Ethereal Peak had spread like wildfire.
On the next day, the head of the Ethereal Peak, Esteemed Tian Yin, and the head of the Illusion Peak, Luo Yuan, actually announced and confirmed this matter at the same time. Naturally, it caused quite a stir.
One had to know that Liu Ming and Wen Ai were both very famous figures in the Sect, and Calan was also admired by many male disciples in the inner and outer sect because of her amazing appearance. This battle had attracted the attention of more than half of the disciples in the Sect.
In a cave house of the Tianjian Peak, after Sha Tongtian heard the report from his subordinate, his face suddenly turned pale, and he suddenly stood up.
"Wen Ai …" Sha Tongtian muttered this name, and sat back down dejectedly.
Unlike those who were just watching the fun, Sha Tongtian had spent a lot of effort to find out some inside information about Wen An's proposal to Calan. Because of this, he was even more anxious.
But other than that, there was nothing else he could do. Although his current strength was not bad, it was still far from Wen Ai, who was a veteran expert in the inner sect.
And the power of the Wen Family in the Taiqing Gate was not something that the Sha Family could compare with.
"Now, we can only rely on that Liu Ming. Maybe he can defeat Wen Ai by luck …" Sha Tongtian recalled the shocking sword strike of Liu Ming in the arena that day, and he felt a little relieved.
…
At the same time, in another cave house of the Tianjian Peak, Long Yanfei looked at the small handwriting that appeared on the communication array disk in her hand, and a trace of a complicated expression flashed in her eyes.
After a while, a faint smile appeared on Long Yanfei's face, and she muttered to herself, "I see.
Junior Sister Calan, since you think so highly of Liu Ming, let's see if he has the strength to save you from Wen Ai this time. "
…
The top mountain in the inner sect, the Xuantian Peak, was high and towering. It was far above some of the nearby peaks, but the terrain at the top was extremely flat. Rows of jade palaces were high up in the sky, surrounded by faint circles of clouds, showing a graceful and luxurious celestial style.
In the White Jade Square at the top of the mountain, Luo Tiancheng, who was wearing a silver robe, walked out of one of the palaces.
At this moment, a black conveyance light flew over from the front and landed. After the black gas dissipated, a rough young man appeared. He quickly walked to the side of Luo Tiancheng and whispered a few words to him.
"Oh? There's actually such a thing? "Luo Tiancheng said with a surprised expression after listening.
"This matter has already caused an uproar within the sect. The battle is in half a month's time. Junior Brother Luo, you can take a good look at Liu Ming's true strength in this battle. "The young man said with a smile.
"I already know Liu Ming's strength very well, so there is nothing to worry about. It is easy for me to defeat him. It was just that I couldn't use my full strength at the Precious Hall. Speaking of which, the other person in this battle is worthy of my attention. "Luo Tiancheng's eyes lit up.
The young man was startled and said, "Oh, Junior Brother is talking about Wen Ai?"
"Exactly. Although this person is a veteran inner sect disciple, he is not very old. Some of the elders in the Sect are quite optimistic about him. I heard that after he came out of closed door cultivation, someone nominated him to become an esoteric disciple."
"Right now, the most important thing for me is to become an esoteric disciple. Compared to this, even the Heaven Gate Meeting is insignificant." Luo Tiancheng said faintly. He waved his hand, and his body was suddenly wrapped in a cloud of silver smoke. He turned into a silver light and soared into the sky.
Only the young man was left in the same place.
…
Still in the mysterious space of Taiqing Gate, Kim Tin-thi in a golden robe was sitting cross-legged in the pavilion. Countless dense starlight was flowing around him. It seemed to be messy, but if one observed carefully, one could find that each of the starlight was faintly following a certain trajectory. It looked extremely mysterious.
At this moment, a fiery red communication talisman flashed from a distance.
Jin Tianci opened his eyes, raised one hand, and his wide sleeve bulged. A faint starlight rolled out from it. In a flash, it rolled the communication talisman over.
"Hahaha …" After a while, Kim Tin-thi's laughter came from the pavilion.
"Interesting, interesting, it seems that the sect master is still worried about Liu Ming. I'm afraid I still have to see his true strength." Kim Tin-thi played with the communication talisman in his hand. Suddenly, he clenched his fingers and crushed it, then he closed his eyes and meditated.
…
In the hall of Fallen Serene Peak, Yin Jiuling was also holding a communication talisman in his hand. There was no expression on his half-withered and half-healthy face, making people not know what he was thinking.
An old man in a gray robe stood next to him and said anxiously,
"Senior Fellow Apprentice Yin, there is not much time left for the Heaven Gate Meeting. Liu Ming is fighting with Wen Ai at this time. If he is injured, wouldn't it affect his performance in the Heaven Gate Meeting? After all, it is not easy to be selected for the Heaven Gate Meeting. Why don't you step forward and ask him to withdraw from this battle? "
"Elder Yu, don't worry. It's just a battle between disciples. It won't be a big deal." Yin Jiuling shook his head and said very calmly.
Although Wen Ai's strength was terrifying, wasn't his disciple equally unfathomable? Since Liu Ming agreed to the battle, he might really be confident.
The old man in a gray robe was anxious when he heard the words. He seemed to want to say something, but he was stopped by Yin Jiuling with a wave of his hand.
The old man had no choice but to leave.
Half a month later, the duel that caused a sensation in the entire Sect finally kicked off.
Halfway up the towering Ethereal Peak that was shrouded in mist all year round, there was an open-air square that was dozens of acres wide that was shrouded in a white light screen.
In the light curtain, Calan, who was wearing a blue dress, was floating in the air with her sleeves fluttering. She frowned and seemed to be troubled.
On the light curtain, there was also a white-haired old man in a white robe floating in the air. His hands were behind his back and his expression was rather cold.
At this time, the sky had just turned bright. There was still more than an hour before the duel. However, there were already hundreds of inner and outer sect disciples gathered around the square. They were in groups of two or three and were whispering to each other.
Most of the young male disciples glanced at Calan from time to time.
…
At the same time, in a mysterious space at the Taiqing Gate.
Kim Tin-thi and Perfected Tian Ge were sitting in a pavilion at the center of the lake. A water curtain that was more than a hundred feet wide was spread out in the air outside the pavilion. In the rippling light, the situation on Ethereal Peak could be clearly seen.
