"Alright, from now on, you are an outer disciple of the Wan Shen Sect. As long as you collect two hundred Reflection Realm and one Netherpassage Realm insect crystal, you will be qualified to join the Wan Shen Sect and officially become a disciple of the Wan Shen Sect. But there is one thing, those insect crystals can only be obtained from killing insects in the underground of the Immortal City. If you bought or exchanged insect crystals, or obtained them from other places, we will not recognize them! Before you enter the Netherpassage Realm, this test will be in effect … "
The beauty behind the counter received the entry form that Xia Pingan filled out and explained to Xia Pingan in a soft voice.
Liang Tian and the red-clothed deacon had already disappeared behind the stairs. Xia Pingan nodded and retracted his gaze. He looked at the summoned beauty in front of him and couldn't help but ask a question, "May I know your name?"
Xia Pingan asked the beauty's name purely out of curiosity. It wasn't because he had any dirty thoughts, because he couldn't think of any Realm Pearl that could summon such a beauty.
The beauty in front of him was in her twenties. She was elegant and refined. Her skin was whiter than snow, and her eyes were like clear water in the mountains. When she looked around, she had an elegant and refined temperament. Her green dress couldn't hide her impressive figure. What was even rarer was that this woman had a dignified and intelligent temperament. When one got close to her, the beauty's body was soft and fragrant, and there was also a fragrance like orchids and musk. It made people have a good impression of her.
Such a beauty was also stunning in reality, not to mention she was summoned. Looking at her intelligence, she was much higher than ordinary summoned characters. She was already able to handle some of the Immortal City's official affairs in the Manager Hall.
Before the beauty could reply, Xia Pingan heard someone nearby couldn't help but sneer and discuss. "Hahaha, another summoner who is fascinated by this beauty's Boundary Pearl. A Boundary Pearl that can summon such a stunning beauty is the most precious and top-level Boundary Pearl among summoners. It's priceless. Even the Wan Shen Sect can only find a few. What is that guy thinking?"
"There are many idiotic summoners like him. Many of them have dirty thoughts in their hearts. They always think that they can summon a few beauties to warm their bed and enjoy their luck with women. If this Beauty Realm Pearl is so easy to obtain, why would Wan Shen Sect use it as a front here …"
"The Beauty Realm Pearl is hard to come by, and the Divine Will Crystal that can fuse with the Beauty Realm Pearl is even rarer. It's already good enough that we can feast our eyes on such a summoned beauty …"
"That's true!"
The jeers and discussions were not malicious, and Xia Pingan pretended not to hear them.
The beauty who was questioned by Xia Pingan glanced at Xia Pingan's face with her beautiful eyes. She then covered her mouth and laughed, "You're an interesting wizard. You even want to ask my name. I'm Wang Zhaojun!"
Wang Zhaojun, one of the Four Beauties?
No wonder …
Xia Pingan was obviously stunned for a moment. He glanced at the woman again, then nodded. Without saying a word, he left the counter and walked outside.
Interesting, interesting. Since there's a Boundary Pearl that can summon Wang Zhaojun, there should also be one that can summon Xi Shi, Diao Chan, Yang Yuhuan, Da Xiao Qiao, Cai Wenji, Zhao Feiyan, Feng Xiaolian, Zhang Lihua, Da Zhou Empress, Xiao Zhou Empress, and Li Shishi. If he could summon the Four Beauties, it would be exciting.
Ahem … ahem … of course, this was just out of curiosity. It was purely an academic study. Xia Pingan didn't have any strange ideas …
After walking out of the Hall of Duty's tower, Xia Pingan had already forgotten about the Boundary Pearl of the Beauties. Beauties were good, but in the current situation, survival was the most important.
Xia Pingan looked at the square outside and took a deep breath. Then, he strode towards a place in the city.
Previously, after killing the three Mantis Blade Insects, Xia Pingan had obtained another rare Realm Pearl. When he killed Ming Tian, Ming Tian actually had two rare Realm Pearls on him. Xia Pingan was prepared to find a place to merge these three Realm Pearls first.
Xia Pingan's original plan was to continue hunting Mantis Blade Insects in Black Wind Canyon after fusing these Boundary Pearls. However, the conversation between Liang Tian and the Red Deacon in the hall made Xia Pingan have other thoughts. He had mastered the strongest Soul Refining Technique. Since the Ten Thousand Deities Sect was in urgent need of experts with such special skills, he had to think carefully about how to use this information to maximize his benefits. There might be a shortcut to joining the Ten Thousand Deities Sect …
He didn't know if it was because he had poisoned Meng Yitong in the city just now, but at this moment, there were white-robed Sorcerers from the Ten Thousand Deities Sect flying around in the sky of the Immortal City. Especially in the direction of the exit of the city, the Summoners who left the Immortal City seemed to have to be checked by the Reflection Mirror.
If it was in the past, Xia Pingan would definitely be nervous when he saw the Reflection Mirror. However, that magic tool was useless to him now.
Xia Pingan didn't panic. After walking in the city for half an hour, Xia Pingan arrived at the south of the city. He found an inn, rented a courtyard, and settled down temporarily.
The guests in the city were all Summoners, and Summoners needed to fuse with Boundary Pearls to cultivate. Therefore, the inns and hotels in the city provided residences that were mostly stand-alone courtyards and villas. Most of them had underground secret rooms for Summoners to cultivate.
After the waiter of the inn left, Xia Pingan summoned the Black Dragon and Child of Fortune to check the courtyard. After confirming that there were no problems in the courtyard, Xia Pingan went directly to the underground cultivation room in the courtyard. After closing the door, he summoned Xuanwu, an Assassin, to guard the door. Then, Xia Pingan took out a Boundary Pearl that he had obtained from killing the three Mantis Blade Insects.
This was an Assassin Boundary Pearl. The words "Cao Mo" were written in Xiaozhuan on the Boundary Pearl. There was also a dagger that was faintly discernible in the Boundary Pearl.
A few days ago, Xia Pingan had killed more than 20 Mantis Blade Insects and obtained seven Boundary Pearls. Among the seven Boundary Pearls, only one of them was a rare Divine Power Boundary Pearl that was "Three Visits to the Thatched Cottage". The other Boundary Pearls were all ordinary Boundary Pearls, and two of them overlapped.
This Cao Mo's Assassin Boundary Pearl was only the second Boundary Pearl that Xia Pingan had obtained in recent days that could be easily fused.
At this point in his cultivation, every step he took, every time he fused with a Boundary Pearl, and every time he increased his Divine Power, it was not easy.
He pricked his finger and dripped his blood on the Upper Boundary Pearl. In the blink of an eye, Xia Pingan was surrounded by a cocoon of light.
…
Xia Pingan opened his eyes and saw a platform in front of him. On the platform, there was a pavilion. Around the pavilion, banners were fluttering in the wind. There were many imperial guards, civil officials, and generals gathered. Two large banners were erected on both sides of the platform. On one side of the banners, the word "Lu" was written, and on the other side, the word "Qi" was written. On both sides of the banners, there were thousands of people standing solemnly in formation.
On both sides of the pavilion, there were many ceremonial utensils, musicians, and three animals for the alliance meeting.
This scene, if placed in the Spring and Autumn Era, was definitely the standard for an "international conference" — such was the extravagance of an alliance meeting.
Xia Pingan stood on the side of the Lu Kingdom that was closest to the platform. Opposite him was the Qi Kingdom.
On the Lu Kingdom's side, a group of civil officials and generals looked gloomy, worried, and forced smiles. On the other hand, the Qi Kingdom's monarch and courtiers were all arrogant and condescending.
There were two long tables on the platform. Next to the long table on the Lu Kingdom's side, sat the ashen-faced Duke Zhuang of Lu, Ji Tong. On the other hand, the person sitting on the long table on the Qi Kingdom's side was no stranger to Xia Pingan. It was the Duke Huan of Qi, Jiang Xiaobai. At this moment, the Duke Huan of Qi, Jiang Xiaobai, was in high spirits and was laughing loudly …
Xia Pingan looked at himself again. He was strong, wearing armor, and standing at the head of the Lu Kingdom's generals. This Cao Mo's body was almost comparable to the strong man he had transformed into. Xia Pingan touched his sleeve and there was indeed a dagger hidden in it.
This Cao Mo was indeed the ancestor of Huaxia's assassins. Cao Mo might not be able to lead troops to war, but his courage and courage were definitely enough.
"Duke Lu, as long as we sign this treaty, our two countries will be friends for generations in the future. There will be no more wars, and the soldiers of our two countries will no longer have to bleed and kill. This is a great kindness. This treaty will definitely be remembered in history and become a story of our two countries. Hahahaha …" Jiang Xiaobai, the Duke Huan of Qi, thought that after signing this treaty, the Lu Kingdom would cede a large area of land to the Qi Kingdom again. In the future, the Qi Kingdom would completely rely on him to live. His reputation among the vassals would be even greater, and he could not help but laugh happily.
The legend belonged to the State of Qi, but for the State of Lu, such an alliance only left them with humiliation. However, no matter how humiliating it was, they could only accept it. If they didn't sign the alliance agreement, the State of Qi might directly send troops to destroy the State of Lu …
Ji Tong looked at Jiang Xiaobai and could only swallow his broken teeth. The State of Lu and the State of Qi had been defeated in three battles. The State of Qi was supported by Guan Zhong and the State of Qi was growing stronger day by day. It was a hegemon and was much stronger than the State of Lu. Today, he had to sign the alliance even if he didn't want to.
Thinking of the three battles and three defeats with the Qi Kingdom, Ji Tong could not help but helplessly look at Xia Pingan. He sighed in his heart and was about to pick up the pen.
At this moment, Xia Pingan moved. He suddenly stepped out of the Lu Kingdom's ranks. Cao Mo had a strong physique, and one step of his was equivalent to three steps of others. Xia Pingan rushed to the bottom of the steps of the platform of the alliance meeting in one stride. With another step, he rushed to the top of the platform and came behind the Duke Huan of Qi, Jiang Xiaobai. He took out the sharp dagger hidden in his sleeve and pressed it against the Duke Huan of Qi's back.
Xia Pingan moved so fast and was so close to the platform of the alliance meeting. Moreover, it happened so suddenly that even the guards around the Duke Huan of Qi, Jiang Xiaobai, did not have time to react. He had already kidnapped the Duke Huan of Qi with the dagger.
The people of the Qi Kingdom were stunned. No one had expected that a minister in the small Lu Kingdom would dare to harm the Duke Huan of Qi during the alliance meeting. The Qi Kingdom was suddenly in chaos. In the sound of "Clang, clang …", a large group of guards of the Qi Kingdom pulled out their swords and surrounded the Duke Huan of Qi with murderous intent.
The people of the Lu Kingdom were also stunned. All the civil officials and generals changed their expressions. Lu Zhuanggong was so scared that his hand trembled and the pen he used to sign fell to the ground.
"Cao Mo, what do you want to do?" A general of the Qi Kingdom took a step forward and pulled out his sword, glaring at Xia Pingan.
