The ancients were particular about dancing at the sound of the rooster and working at sunrise. Naturally, they couldn't sleep until the sun shone on their buttocks like in modern times. It was not even half past five o 'clock in the morning. Ning Caichen got up, washed up, and walked out of the room.
Originally, he thought Ye Xuan and Zhiqiu Yiye might not have woken up yet, so he wanted to go out for a walk alone. However, to his surprise, as soon as he walked to the restaurant in front of the inn, he heard a greeting coming from above him. "Good morning, Brother Ning!"
Ning Caichen looked up to the second floor and saw Ye Xuan already sitting there. He smiled and said, "Brother Ye, I didn't expect you to be so early!"
While talking, Ning Caichen went straight upstairs and found that the table where Ye Xuan was sitting was already filled with breakfast. Ye Xuan was enjoying it slowly.
"Brother Ning, please, don't stand on ceremony!" Ye Xuan smiled and pointed to the table opposite him.
As the saying goes, one doesn't itch when there are too many lice, and one doesn't worry when there are too many debts.
From three years ago, including last night, Ning Caichen had received a lot of favors from Ye Xuan. Although he would always remember this favor, he didn't mind having breakfast. Therefore, Ning Caichen smiled and cupped his fists, saying, "Then I won't stand on ceremony with you, Brother Ye. Please!"
The waiter at the side was very clever. When he saw Ning Caichen coming up, he quickly brought a new set of bowls and chopsticks.
The ancients were particular about not talking while eating, and not talking while sleeping. Therefore, the two of them did not talk while eating. After breakfast, Ye Xuan picked up the cup of tea that the waiter had brewed for him and took a sip. Then he said, "Brother Ning, how was it?
"Yes, thank you for your hospitality, Brother Ye." Ning Caichen nodded. He said with some embarrassment.
"Brother Ning, it's good that you are full!" Ye Xuan nodded and said, "Brother Ning, what's your next plan?"
After Ye Xuan's intervention, Ning Caichen didn't have much to do with Fu Qingfeng. Therefore, Ye Xuan asked Ning Caichen what his next plan was.
Hearing Ye Xuan's question. Ning Caichen lowered his head and thought for a while. Finally, he shook his head and sighed, "I don't know. Nowadays, not only the imperial court is in chaos, but also the demons are in power. Maybe I should go back to Tangxi to see Jia Ci. How is Jia Ci doing at home alone? "
"Brother Ning's plan is correct." Seeing that Ning Caichen seemed to be a little dispirited, Ye Xuan blinked and said, "But the world is not peaceful now. Brother Ning, you don't know martial arts. If you go on your own, I'm afraid that what happened to you will happen again. Why don't you wait for a few days? How about we send Brother Ning back at that time? "
"Ah, I really, really understand now. He is a useless scholar. " Ning Caichen shook his head, then stood up and knelt down in front of Ye Xuan. "Thank you so much, Brother Ye. I will never forget your kindness."
"Please get up. Brother Ning, I can't accept such a big gift! " Ye Xuan didn't expect that Ning Caichen would kneel down in front of him. He was stunned for a moment, then quickly stood up and helped him up.
"Yes, I do. Thank you. Brother Ye, I can't repay your kindness. This is the only way to repay your kindness. "Ning Caichen said excitedly.
"Well, Brother Ning, please get up. You and I have known each other for many years. There is no need to talk about such a thing." Ye Xuan shook his head and pushed Ning Caichen to sit down on the chair.
"Brother Ning, you can have a rest in the inn for a few days. After I finish my business, I will send you back to Tangxi. What do you think?" Ye Xuan looked at Ning Caichen and said.
"As you say!" Ning Caichen naturally didn't have any opinion and nodded.
"That's great!" Ye Xuan nodded, then took out some silver and handed it to Ning Caichen. "By the way, Brother Ning, take this silver. I may need to leave the inn for a few days. Brother Ning, you can stay in the inn and keep some silver for emergencies."
"Then, then I will accept it. Thank you, Brother Ye!" Ning Caichen thought for a while and finally took the silver from Ye Xuan.
After chatting with Ning Caichen for a while, Ye Xuan told him that he had sent Zhiqiu Yiye out for some business. Then he said goodbye to Ning Caichen and went back to his room.
After returning to his room, Ye Xuan didn't immediately start cultivating. Now that 90% of his Real Essence had been restored, even if he really encountered Kṣitigarbha, he would have some confidence in defeating him.
However, he didn't just want some confidence. What he wanted was to be sure that he could defeat Kṣitigarbha and see if he could get the luck points so that he could become the Son of the Plane of this plane. In this way, he would not lose the Myriad Flower Demonic Realm that he had obtained before, and he would have a place for Hei Dou to cleanse her bloodline.
To ensure that he was confident, Ye Xuan didn't recklessly go to Kṣitigarbha directly.
He had roughly figured out why Kṣitigarbha wanted to be the Guardian of State. It was because he was a thousand-year-old entertainer. His purpose was to defy the heavens and become a dragon, so he thought of using the fate of the Great Ming Country.
As mentioned before, although luck was ethereal, it did exist in the eyes of cultivators. This thousand-year-old entertainer wanted to use the fate of the Great Ming Country to strengthen himself, in order to defy the heavens and change his fate, and become a dragon. That was why in the original plot, he could devour all the civil and military officials of the Court.
In the original plot, if he wasn't killed by Yan Chixia after this trip to the south, he would probably return to the palace to devour the current emperor, absorb the fate of the Human Emperor, and finally become a dragon against the heavens.
With Ye Xuan's participation, he naturally couldn't let Kṣitigarbha succeed. Moreover, since he already knew that Kṣitigarbha's demon power would weaken during the lunar eclipse, he would be a fool not to take advantage of this and go to Kṣitigarbha directly.
Therefore, he first sent Zhiqiu Yiye out to monitor Kṣitigarbha's movements. Then, he stayed in the inn to recover his Real Essence and Dharma power while preparing to deal with Kṣitigarbha. He didn't want to kill Kṣitigarbha with one strike, but to directly kill this thousand-year-old entertainer.
Two days passed in the blink of an eye. Just as Ye Xuan was sitting cross-legged on his bed, recovering the True Aether he had used to draw the talismans, Zhiqiu Yiye suddenly appeared in his room. "Sir, the old monster you mentioned is here!"
