The woman was surprised. Junior brother Liu had undergone the fourth heavenly tribulation a long time ago, and he was experienced in battle too. His strength completely surpassed Li Qingshan's. And, this was the quartermaster's office. Senior brother Ge was watching from above. Was Li Qingshan bold enough to commit murder?
Ge Xing sighed and closed his eyes. "Now that he's on the battlefield, his rate of contribution probably won't be any slower than when he was in the Hundred Herb Garden."
The human realm obviously would not be organizing cultivators to fend off demonfolk for free. Instead, they would recruit as many soldiers as they could with the promise of great benefits. Many independent cultivators passed through Myriad Phenomenon City, entering the bloody battlefield in order to secure a future. This was also one of the duties of the quartermaster's office.
As they spoke, the quartermaster finally brought Li Qingshan to the bottom of the tower. His heart beat like a drum. The tightly-shut door was right before him. If he took another step forward, he would run into the door.
If he paused, the consequences would be unpredictable. His life or death would be unpredictable. Like a desperado who had been forced into a dead end, his fear suddenly turned into fury. He powered his yin spirit with all his might to launch a desperate counterattack.
Li Qingshan suddenly stopped, and the soul-stirring killing intent vanished.
The quartermaster staggered as if he had punched nothing but air. He had nowhere to release his strength, shaking up his organs. He was drenched in sweat, and his mouth reeked of blood. Suddenly, he looked back. "Li Qingshan, you've gone too far!"
Li Qingshan smiled. "Who's gone too far?"
The faint smile in his eyes caused the quartermaster's heart to tremble, and his anger was instantly extinguished. It was only a joke. If this man really wanted to kill him, he probably would not be able to put up a fight.
He wiped away the blood from the corner of his lips. "Forget it, I've humiliated myself. Only now do I understand what it means to know someone by reputation. Senior Martial Brother Changge is on the pagoda, please! "
Li Qingshan clasped his hands and strode forward, casually pushing open the black stone door. Before he could even make out what was inside, a short, stocky man welcomed him with a smile.
Li Qingshan raised his guard. He took half a step back instinctively. As soon as he assumed a defensive posture, his right hand was grabbed firmly. "Senior brother Ge!?"
Ge Xing patted Li Qingshan's hand lightly. "Welcome, Junior Brother Li!"
The woman behind him revealed a strange expression. Ge Xing had never been so warm to her before. The disciple whom she thought to be a lucky disciple was immediately looked at in a new light by another direct disciple. She even treated him as an equal, and he was her superior.
Li Qingshan didn't pull his hand out. Instead, he grabbed Ge Xing's hand and shook it hard. "Senior Brother, sorry to keep you waiting!"
This scene was like a victorious reunion.
Ge Xingshen was a little surprised, but he seemed to understand. "Junior Martial Brother Li, do you know why I summoned you here?"
Li Qingshan thought for a moment. "Forcefully conscripting me will ruin my cultivation."
Ge Xing's smile froze. He didn't expect him to be so direct. She let go of his hand. "Good! I have no enmity with you in the past, so I didn't have to do this. "
Li Qingshan grinned and said, "I understand. I'm just a chess piece. If others want to eat me, there's no reason to reason with them."
Ge Xing said in a low voice, "If you don't fall, you will definitely be on the same level as me."
Li Qingshan also said seriously, "Thank you for your kind words, Senior Martial Brother. I will work hard to move forward. Why don't you let me go? I will repay you generously in the future! "
"What if I refuse?"
Even though Ge Xing admired Li Qingshan a little, he gave him face and went down the tower to welcome him personally. But that was also because he didn't want to form a personal grudge with him. The pros and cons were all calculated. This was just a bet, and it wasn't just him. There was really no need to jump out and attract hatred.
Li Qingshan shrugged his shoulders. "I won't obediently give up."
"You don't hate me?" Ge Xing asked curiously. Li Qingshan didn't hate him at all, and it wasn't an act. Otherwise, he would have sensed it.
"As Senior Martial Brother said, I have no enmity with you in the past. It's just because of a bet. It's only natural to receive the benefits and bear the disadvantages. What's there to complain about? " Li Qingshan cupped his hands again in a neither servile nor overbearing manner. "I only hope that when Senior Martial Brother has the upper hand, you won't kill me."
All of this was just the aftermath of him taking a thousand green jade lots from Le Tian. It was part of the bet, so don't take the risk. Ge Xing didn't want to form a personal grudge with him, but how could he be willing to form a grudge with a true disciple? If you put on a look of resentment, do you really have to force others to kill you?
"Good!" Ge Xing's face flashed with a hint of praise. "This bet isn't just about me. Otherwise, I would really want to let you go."
"But Senior Martial Brother Pi said that you're a stingy person who won't even give up a Dark Wood Lot." Li Qingshan didn't believe him and unceremoniously sold out the mastermind.
"That bastard!" Ge Xing was slightly embarrassed. "I'm doing my duty, so I need to be careful."
"Sigh, if you're careful, you shouldn't gamble! Senior Martial Brother, don't be too arrogant and make things difficult for me. It'll be easier for us to meet in the future. "
"You can rest assured. Our Nature Sect isn't a demonic sect. We won't go so far as to kill our own sect members. Once you're on the battlefield, we won't care. With your ability, the contribution points you earn on the battlefield won't be any less than in the Herb Garden. As long as you have the ability to become a true disciple, we'll accept our defeat. "
Ge Xing patted his chest heroically, but in his heart, he said, "Brat, once you're under Chao Tianjiao's command, don't blame me for what she wants to do with you!"
"Good!" Li Qingshan thought, "Only an idiot would believe you. Only an idiot would go to the battlefield. Although it's not worth bearing a grudge, if there's a chance in the future, don't blame me for making fun of you. " "Why isn't Senior Martial Sister Ruan here yet?"
The two men looked like they appreciated each other's talents, but they each had their own plans. The female quartermaster was a little stunned. These hypocritical men.
On a long bridge between two tall buildings, Gu Yanying glanced in the direction of the Quartermaster Department and immediately retracted her gaze. "I think I see him. This time it's a real person! There's a Yang Spirit cultivator in front of him. I don't dare to look too much. "
"Is he in danger?" Little Ann touched her wrist, where there was a new string of skull beads.
Gu Yanying knew that if she said he was in danger, she would immediately prepare for battle, no matter where it was or whether there was a Demonic Immortal guarding it.
"Don't worry. At least it's safe for now. He has probably sensed us. Let's wait and see! He met a woman here called Ruan Yaozhu, who is also a Human Sovereign. It seems she will come to help him. "
At this moment, a nine-colored brilliance swept across the bridge.
Gu Yanying and Little Ann suddenly looked back. Ruan Yaozhu felt something in her heart. She looked at them and nodded slightly in greeting. Although the white robes covered their figures and appearances, they seemed to be two extremely beautiful women.
Gu Yanying and Little Ann almost immediately confirmed the woman's identity. They looked at each other. "Ruan Yaozhu!"
Flying was not allowed in Wanxiang City, so this was the only way to the Quartermaster Department.
Ruan Yaozhu rode the nine-colored deer and arrived at the entrance of the Quartermaster Department in the blink of an eye. Without any notification, she went straight in and arrived at the black tower. Ignoring Li Qingshan, she directly criticized Ge Xing. "Senior Brother Ge, you've gone too far this time!"
"What a great honor!" Ge Xing glanced at Li Qingshan and greeted Ruan Yaozhu. "Junior Sister Ruan, it's been a long time. I know you value this kid very much, but this is not something you can stop. You should give up as soon as possible!"
