Misty Peak's summit hall.
Master Tian Yin was sitting on the main seat, while Yin Jiuling and Yu Yinzi sat on either side of him.
There was naturally no place for Liu Ming and Calan on such an occasion. The two of them stood behind Yin Jiuling and Yu Yinzi.
Ever since Yin Jiuling sat down, Yu Yinzi and Master Tian Yin had been conversing with each other via voice transmission. However, his gaze was constantly on Calan. Half of her ruddy, baby-like face was glowing, causing the other half of her shriveled face to appear much gentler.
"Peak Lord Yin, what do you think of my disciple?" Yu Yinzi saw this, but she didn't seem to blame him. Instead, after a while, she suddenly asked with a smile.
Yin Jiuling chuckled and said, "Haha, Martial Niece Calan's appearance and cultivation aptitude are both excellent. Truly excellent!"
Hearing this, Liu Ming's heart skipped a beat as if he had a premonition of something.
However, Calan's head was slightly lowered, making it impossible to see her expression.
Master Tian Yin waved his hands and said with a faint smile, "Alright, Liu Ming, Calan, the two of you come to the front."
When Calan heard this, she raised her head, revealing a beautiful face that was slightly flushed. She seemed to realize that she had been rude and hastily walked forward.
Liu Ming was slightly startled, but under Yin Jiuling's gaze, he also slowly walked forward.
"After the commotion of this competition, I believe that the matter between the two of you will soon spread throughout the sect. Peak Lord Yin and Junior Sister Yu Yinzi have already discussed it in private. Since the two of you already have feelings for each other, I will make the decision for the two of you and officially set your marriage in front of your masters. "Master Tian Yin said with a smile.
Although Liu Ming already had a premonition, when he heard this, his face still changed slightly. He seemed to be stunned on the spot.
When Calan heard this, her face became even redder. She lowered her head slightly, but she didn't say anything. She seemed to acquiesce to this matter.
"That's great!" Seeing this, Yin Jiuling nodded slightly, seemingly very satisfied.
Yu Yinzi looked at Liu Ming and Calan in front of her with a smile in her eyes.
Liu Ming quickly recovered his calmness. When he turned his head and saw Jia Lan's expression, he frowned inadvertently. After thinking for a while, he secretly smiled bitterly, but he didn't say anything else in the end.
At this moment, Yu Yinzi looked at Liu Ming with a soft gaze and slowly said,
"Liu is so young, but his cultivation has already reached the Crystallization Period later stage. Presumably, it is only a matter of time before he can break the crystal and condense the pill."
"Disciple has just cultivated to the later stage, and I haven't even entered the Pseudo Pill Stage. If I want to break the crystal and condense the pill, I'm afraid I still have to cultivate hard for a while." Liu Ming suppressed the distracting thoughts in his heart and replied respectfully.
"Very good, Liu not only has good cultivation, but even his temperament is so mature. It seems that I have found the right person to entrust my disciple to you. By the way, the Tianmen Meeting is about to begin. You probably have to make a lot of preparations. The marriage between you and Calan will be set like this for the time being. When one of you truly advances to the Jin Dan Realm, then we will hold the dual cultivation ceremony and officially become partners. "Yu Yinzi was very satisfied with Liu Ming's answer, so she immediately suggested to Yin Jiuling.
"Fellow Yu Yinzi is very thoughtful. Let's do it this way!" Yin Jiuling made the decision.
Master Tian Yin didn't have the slightest objection.
On the other hand, Liu Ming was speechless for a while. His mind was vaguely a little more chaotic.
…
It didn't take long for the Piaomiao Peak's competition to spread in the Sect.
Liu Ming's "heroic deeds" of breaking the Warm Hatred Curse Array with one sword strike and shattering the Buddhist Small Sumeru Vajra Glyph Array with one punch were spread by the ears with many embellishments. The story was rendered into several versions and was widely spread among the inner and outer disciples.
His reputation naturally rose and became more resounding. He was vaguely on par with Luo Tiancheng.
On that day, after Liu Ming left the Piaomiao Peak with Yin Jiuling, he bid farewell to his master and went straight back to the cave house. He cultivated hard with the 2 spiritual pets, trying to improve his strength before the Tianmen Meeting.
Since he saw the power of Luo Tiancheng, Wen Hen, and others, he had already put away his contempt for the cultivators of the same level.
After all, there was always someone better than him. The Middle Sky Continent was vast and there were tens of thousands of Sect of all sizes. He was not the only one who had strength far beyond his peers.
As for the engagement, although it was not his original intention, it was decided by the peak masters of the 2 peaks. Calan also rejected Wen Yuan and others for this reason. Naturally, he couldn't refuse and explain anything in person.
Fortunately, the engagement had to wait until the two of them really advanced to Jin Dan. He could only think about it carefully at that time. After all, if he couldn't advance to Jin Dan, he might not even be able to survive the next two absorption of spiritual power from the bubble in his body. Naturally, everything else would be useless.
Of course, the main reason was that deep in Liu Ming's heart, he also had an inexplicable affection for Calan.
However, for a long time after the battle with Wen Hen, Calan never came to his door, not even to communicate with him.
In this way, Liu Ming could just concentrate on cultivation during this period.
One day after a year, in the cave house's secret room, Liu Ming was sitting on one side, ordering the 2 spiritual pets to compete with each other.
"Hehe, guess which one is the real me!"
Nine identical green clothed boys were jumping up and down in the secret room. Their figures were as fast as lightning, and they spat out bloody flames from their mouths from time to time.
However, the face of the black veil girl showed a trace of disdain. She snorted and waved her hand lightly. A pale yellow breeze rose from the ground under her feet. At the same time, after countless gravel on the secret room trembled slightly, it turned into a thick yellow sandstorm. In the sandstorm, the gravel rubbed against each other continuously.
"Go."
The black-veiled girl gently pointed in the air, and the yellow sandstorm instantly turned into nine sandstorms, rushing toward the nine green-clothed boys.
"You underestimate me too much!"
The 9 boys in green clothes shook their heads and replied in unison. At the same time, their eyes flashed. Suddenly, countless strange spirit patterns appeared on their white and clean faces, revealing a ferocious expression. They opened their mouths and spat out clusters of gray filthy flames.
Roaring sounds came one after another. The sandstorms were wrapped by the gray filthy flames, and they collapsed one after another. Suddenly, the entire secret room was filled with yellow dust. Countless gravel scattered around with crackling sounds.
With a thought from Liu Ming, the 8 tentacles sea beastkin attached to his chest made a sizzling sound and transformed into a silver armor, exuding a layer of faint silver light curtain to block the gravel in the sky.
After about a few seconds, the yellow sandstorm gradually dissipated, but the figure of the black veil girl was nowhere to be seen. This made the 9 green clothed boys look surprised.
At this moment, behind one of the green clothed boys, a black slender figure flashed and broke out of the ground. It was the black veil girl, Scorpion.
He stretched out his hand like lightning and grabbed the green-clothed boy's shoulder.
The green clothed boy showed a hint of surprise on his face. He twisted his body and punched at the black shadow. A pale green flame rolled out.
The black veil girl twisted her waist, tapped on the ground with one leg, and retreated a distance of 30 meters. She appeared beside Liu Ming.
With a bang, the green flame hit the wall of the secret room. After the light blue light curtain on the wall trembled slightly, it returned to its original state.
"You lost. I have found your real body." The black veil girl's cold face showed a trace of anger, and she said with a slightly disdainful tone.
"Really?" The 9 green clothed boys laughed at the same time, and a burst of green mist wrapped them up.
After the transformation, the eight wisps of green mist disappeared into thin air. In another corner of the secret room, a green-robed boy was grinning at the black-veiled girl with a smug expression. There were eight green beads around his neck.
"This …"
The black veil girl was taken aback. She looked at the green clothed boy in the corner, and she was speechless for a while.
Liu Ming was also a little surprised when he saw this.
He saw the entire battle clearly from the side. The real body of the Demon Flying Head was obviously the one that Bone Scorpion had caught earlier, but after a transformation, it became another green-clothed boy in the corner. Could it be that the real body transformed by the Demon Flying Head could actually transform with other clones?
"Let's go again!" The black veil girl said with a face full of dissatisfaction.
"Let's do it!" The green clothed boy did not show weakness, and he shouted with a pout.
At this moment, the identity token on Liu Ming's waist vibrated slightly, and a deep voice came.
"All the disciples selected to participate in the Elysium Meeting, gather at the main peak of Taiqing Gate in 3 days."
When Liu Ming heard this, he looked shocked.
"Master is going to participate in the Elysium Meeting so soon?" The black veil girl said with her eyes wide open.
"Hehe, Elysium Meeting, Elysium Meeting!" After hearing it, the green clothed boy said with excitement.
"There is still some time before the Elysium Meeting. How can everyone be gathered so soon? Is the location of the meeting very far away?"
Liu Ming murmured. He immediately patted his waist, and Bone Scorpion and Demon Flying Skull turned into a green and black mist and went into the soul-recovering bag.
After he simply cleaned up the messy secret room, he left the cave house, turned into a black escape light, and flew toward the direction of the Sect's market.
Half a day later, when he returned to the cave house again, there was a thick stack of talismans and some healing elixirs in the Sumeru Ring on his hand.
Although he had no lack of magic weapons, spiritual weapons, and elixirs, and his means were endless, the Elysium Meeting's secret realm was not a simple place. He had to prepare more for emergencies.
In the next 3 days, he just meditated quietly in the cave house, recuperated, and restored his physical state as much as possible to the peak state.
Early in the morning of the 3rd day, after Liu Ming opened the cave house enchantment, he left the residence, stepped on a black cloud, and flew toward the highest mountain of Taiqing Gate.
