The lunatic had stopped.
The disciples of the other sword peaks also returned to their cave residences one after another.
However …
There were also many disciples who gathered together and discussed with righteous indignation.
"Senior Brother, may I know how to get to the number one sword peak?"
Above one of the sword peaks, Qin Feiyang stopped and looked at the few young men and women who were at Peak Perfection and asked with a smile.
"Go straight."
"The highest sword peak in the middle is the number one sword peak."
A young man said without looking up.
"Thank you, Senior Brother."
Qin Feiyang cupped his hands and smiled, then left with Huo Lian and the other two.
"Wait."
But the young man suddenly froze and hurriedly turned to look at Qin Feiyang and the other three.
Qin Feiyang stopped and looked at the young man. "Senior Brother, what's the matter?"
He had an extremely humble look on his face.
The young man said, "You don't even know the number one sword peak. Are you new disciples?"
"Yes."
Qin Feiyang nodded.
The young man said, "So, that lunatic just now was mad at you?"
"It can't be considered flipping out!"
"It's just that some people, competing for the first place, provoked that person."
Qin Feiyang smiled.
"Competing for the first place?"
The young men and women shook their heads when they heard this.
"With that lunatic here, do you think it's your turn to compete for the first place?"
"You're really unlucky to be assigned to that lunatic's sword peak."
"Since we're from the same sect, we'll give you a piece of advice. Don't provoke that lunatic."
"Otherwise, you'll never have a peaceful day in the Ninth Heaven Palace."
They looked at Qin Feiyang and the other four. Although they were giving advice out of goodwill, there was a hint of gloating in their eyes.
"Thank you, Senior Brothers and Sisters. We'll remember it."
Qin Feiyang cupped his hands and thanked him. Then, he turned around and left.
Fire Lotus followed Qin Feiyang and thought, "Brother, why does it sound more and more wrong?"
"I also feel like I've been tricked."
Qin Ruoshuang said.
"This matter is actually very clear. We were purposely arranged by Cheng Li to go to that sword peak."
Huo Yi sighed.
"Deliberately arranged?"
Qin Feiyang was taken aback. He turned to Huo Yi and asked suspiciously, "Brother Huo, what do you mean?"
"You wish."
"The outer sect has a total of ten thousand sword peaks, which can accommodate ten million disciples."
"And now, there are only a little over eight million outer sect disciples."
"In other words."
"Currently, there are still over a hundred empty Sword Peaks in the outer sect."
"But this Cheng Li, why didn't he arrange for us to go to other Sword Peaks? Why did he want us to go to that madman's Sword Peak?"
Huo Yi said.
"Maybe they don't want to waste resources!"
"After all, it's a waste of resources for one person to occupy an entire sword peak."
Qin Feiyang guessed.
"Brother Jiang, will you die if you don't act stupid?"
"With your brain, I've already explained it so clearly. How could you not have thought of it?"
Huo Yi said angrily.
Qin Feiyang smiled embarrassedly.
"Alas!"
"Originally, we all thought that this Elder Cheng was a good person and was not instigated by Feng Wenhai."
"However, in reality, he had already set a trap for us unknowingly."
"One is a battle maniac known as the Madman."
"The other is known as an arrogant and conceited person."
"The meeting of these two people is equivalent to Mars colliding with Earth."
"Our Elder Cheng isn't simple at all!"
Huo Yi sighed.
Fire Lotus asked, "You mean, he wants to use the Madman to get rid of us?"
"Isn't this obvious?"
"But he is also one step behind. Two people with similar personalities may not necessarily become opponents. They may also become friends."
Huo Yi smiled.
"Friends …"
Qin Ruoshuang and Fire Lotus heard this and turned to look at Qin Feiyang. They found that Qin Feiyang had a smile on his face.
Could it be that the two of them would really become friends?
…
Sword Peak Number One.
Duty Hall.
Cheng Li leaned against the chair beside the tea table and leisurely sipped his tea.
"Disciples Jiang Haotian, Jiang Ruoshuang, Jiang Fire Lotus, and Huo Yi request to see Elder Cheng."
Suddenly.
Several voices came from outside the door.
Cheng Li was stunned and looked up at the door. He saw Qin Feiyang and the other three standing respectfully outside the door.
"What's going on?"
Looking at Qin Feiyang and the other three, the teacup in his hand almost fell to the ground.
He had thought that the lunatic would at least give them a good beating, if not kill them.
But now, the four of them were unharmed?
What was going on?
They did not fight?
But how was this possible?
As an Outer Sect Elder, he knew the Madman's temper better than anyone.
Once the previous situation happened, they would definitely fight.
"Elder, what's wrong?"
Qin Feiyang and the other three looked at each other. A smile flashed in their eyes, but they looked at Cheng Li suspiciously.
"No, no."
Cheng Li came back to his senses and quickly waved his hand. He asked with a smile, "Why are you looking for me?"
"Elder, didn't you say that after settling down, we'll come to get the identity token?"
Qin Feiyang said.
"Yes, yes, yes."
Cheng Li nodded repeatedly, got up and walked to the desk next to him. He said, "Come in!"
"Yes."
The four of them walked into the hall one after another.
Cheng Li also sat at the desk and took out four white tokens.
The tokens were made of jade and could be as big as a baby's palm.
On the front side, there was a flame pattern, and the back side was blank.
Cheng Li said with a smile, "Tell me your names again."
"Jiang Haotian."
"Jiang Fire Lotus."
"Jiang Ruoshuang."
"Huo Yi."
The four of them spoke one after another.
Cheng Li waved his fingers, and on the back side of the four tokens, the names of Qin Feiyang and the other three appeared.
"This is your identity medallion," said Ye Futian.
After Cheng Li said, he took out four Qiankun bags and put them together with the four tokens. He said with a smile, "These are your clothes."
"Thank you, Elder."
Qin Feiyang and the other three stepped forward one by one and took their identity token and Qiankun bags.
"There's something that I have to remind you of."
"It doesn't matter what you wear outside, but in the Empyrean Palace, you must wear clothes with flame patterns."
"If you don't wear it, you will be punished."
"This is the rule."
"In addition, the Empyrean Palace forbids private fighting."
"If you have any grudges that you have to settle, you can go to the battlefield."
"Once you enter the battlefield, you can fight however you want. It doesn't matter even if you kill the other party."
Cheng Li said.
"Forbidding fighting?"
Qin Feiyang and the other three frowned.
Qin Feiyang said suspiciously, "Elder, since fighting is prohibited, why did that lunatic of our Sword Peak dare to fight in public?"
"Did he fight?"
Cheng Li was stunned.
"Yes!"
"Elder, you didn't know about the big commotion before?"
Qin Feiyang said.
"I didn't pay much attention to it just now."
"However, this lunatic is a little special. If you can bear with it, then bear with it."
"When I have time, I will also talk to him."
Cheng Li laughed.
"Didn't pay much attention?"
Qin Feiyang and the other three looked at each other. This was really a lame excuse.
However …
They did not expose it in front of him.
Cheng Li waved his hand and laughed: "Alright, go!"
"Disciple will take his leave."
The four of them bowed respectfully, then turned around and walked out.
Huo Yi secretly said: "Did you guys notice that even this Cheng Li is a little afraid of that battle maniac?"
The three of them nodded.
Huo Yi sent a sound transmission: "It seems that the identity of this lunatic needs to be investigated."
"What is this?"
Suddenly.
Qin Feiyang turned his head to look at a black slate on the wall.
The slate was five to six meters long, and there were rows of small words written on it.
"That's the bulletin board."
"It's used to issue missions."
Cheng Li said.
"Bulletin board?"
Qin Feiyang and the other three were stunned.
"Look at the first line of missions. It's to find a Ghost Flower. The reward is a hundred Soul Stones."
"In other words, as long as you find the Ghost Flower and hand it over to us, you will get a hundred Soul Stones."
"And there is no upper limit."
"For example, if you hand over a hundred Ghost Flowers, you will get ten thousand Soul Stones."
Cheng Li explained with a smile.
"So that's how it is."
The four of them suddenly understood and looked at it one by one.
On the bulletin board, even if it was looking for something.
"The missions issued by our outer sect are basically the simplest. There is not much risk."
"Of course, the reward is definitely much lower."
Cheng Li said.
Qin Ruoshuang asked curiously: "What about the inner and outer sect?"
"The inner sect is definitely not comparable to the outer sect."
"The missions issued by the inner sect even include assassination. If you are not careful, you will lose your life."
"Of course, we will not let you kill good people."
"Those who are not listed as assassination targets are basically heinous people."
"As for the reward, there are missions as high as thousands, tens of thousands, and even hundreds of thousands."
Cheng Li said.
"So high."
The four of them were shocked.
"Actually, to us elders, especially the people from the Law Enforcement Hall, these missions are simply nothing."
"The reason why we do not do it and instead issue missions is to give you disciples a way to earn Soul Stones. On the other hand, it is also a training for you."
"However, you are now outer sect disciples. Although the reward for the missions issued by the inner sect is higher, it is still too much for you."
"So, do not bite off more than you can chew."
Cheng Li warned.
Qin Ruoshuang's eyes shone brightly as she asked, "In that case, outer sect disciples like us can also accept missions from the inner sect?"
"No."
"I am warning you this as a precaution."
"Although outer sect disciples cannot accept missions from the inner sect, it is inevitable that they will have friends or relatives in the inner sect."
"In the past, there were many outer sect disciples who sought help from their friends or relatives in the inner sect in order to obtain more Soul Stones."
"However, this is very foolish. Many people have lost their lives because of this."
Cheng Li sighed.
"Then why don't you put an end to this?"
Qin Feiyang frowned.
"We have put an end to it."
"There are even clear rules that forbid inner sect disciples from doing this."
"But even so, we can't stop them."
"For example, the four of you."
"Jiang Haotian is in the inner sect. Jiang Ruoshuang, Jiang Fire Lotus, and Huo Yi are in the outer sect."
"You will privately seek help from Jiang Haotian to accept missions from the inner sect and promise to give him a certain reward."
"If there is a reward, Jiang Haotian will definitely keep his mouth shut."
"If Jiang Haotian does not say anything, how would we elders know that he is actually helping you accept missions?"
"So, this kind of thing cannot be put an end to."
Cheng Li said.
"That's true."
The four of them nodded.
