One Step at a Time
"Haha, they told me that you are very arrogant. I didn't expect you to be this arrogant. Reaching the peak of a Dou Huang at such a young age is indeed something to be proud of …"
Yin Chang Zai did not seem to be angry. He smiled. "But, what does this mean to me?"
That's right, Ning Qi's talent was really nothing to a true disciple. Every true disciple was at least an existence of the Dou Zun class!
"Even Master could not recognize you. I reckon that you are much older than you look now, right? If I were to reach your age, I would at least be a Dou Sheng, even if not a Dou Di. What do you mean to me? "
Ning Qi smiled.
Everyone was silent. Even Hua Wushang's expression was sluggish. He looked at Yin Chang Zai with some fear.
Yin Chang Zai looked at Ning Qi and smiled. "Do you know that I can destroy your cultivation with a flick of my finger?"
"I know."
Ning Qi nodded.
"Then, why do you want to anger me again and again?"
Yin Chang Zai smiled.
"Do you admit that you are angered by me?"
Ning Qi asked.
"…"
Yin Chang Zai took a deep breath and resisted the urge to blast Ning Qi into smithereens. After scanning the crowd, he smiled at Ning Qi and said, "I hope you can still speak like this later."
After saying that, he grabbed Ning Qi's neck and was about to fly away. But at this moment, a faint pressure suddenly came from the sky.
Yin Chang Zai's expression changed slightly. He raised his head and asked, "May I ask which Lamp Elder has come personally?"
Lamp Elder?
Everyone's faces were filled with shock as they looked up.
They saw a woman dressed in white walking through the air. With every step she took, a lotus flower would rise from under her feet. Everyone felt the stone in their hearts become heavier.
Other than that, they also smelled a strange fragrance.
"Has Elder Meng been practicing some Qi Method recently? She has become even more beautiful … "
Ning Qi thought to himself.
It was Meng Qingling.
Seeing her, Ning Qi heaved a sigh of relief. Even ten Yin Chang Zai would not be able to take him away.
"Elder Meng …"
Yin Chang Zai's face revealed a trace of surprise. He quickly let go of Ning Qi and bowed to Meng Qingling.
"Elder Meng is here!"
Zong Yin was somewhat shocked. Thinking of the relationship between Meng Qingling and Ning Qi, he looked at Yin Chang Zai with ridicule.
"I heard that her relationship with Ning Qi is not ordinary!"
"Looks like today's direct disciple will not trouble Ning Qi!"
"Elder Meng Qingling said.
Hua Xiri and Hua Wushang's faces were a bit gloomy, but they were afraid of being seen by Meng Qingling, so they slightly lowered their heads.
"This, this, could it be the Lamp Elder of the Cloud Rising Sect? "Saint level?"
"A Dou Sheng class existence?"
Cha Nan and the other two were shocked.
Meng Qingling looked at Yin Chang Zai and nodded: "Chang Zai, the last time we met, it has been more than 80 years, right?"
Yin Chang Zai's expression slightly changed. Ning Qi had previously mocked him for not being as young as he looked, but now that Meng Qingling had pointed it out, it was truly embarrassing.
However, in front of Meng Qingling, he did not dare to be rude and quickly said, "Elder Meng, you are right."
At the same time, Yin Chang Zai thought to himself, "Master said that Meng Qingling consumed the Beauty Pill and regained her youthful appearance. It is indeed so …"
Meng Qingling smiled and looked at Ning Qi, "Was the trip to the Draconic Prison successful?"
"Reporting to Elder Meng, everything went smoothly. Master has also returned safely."
Ning Qi cupped his hands.
With Meng Qingling's arrival, the restriction placed on Ning Qi by Yin Chang Zai had disappeared.
"Elder Meng, thank you for your help."
Shentu Yuanba knew that Meng Qingling had helped a lot and quickly bowed.
"En, you have a good disciple. I came here today with a request. I wonder if Elder Shentu is willing to hear it?"
Meng Qingling smiled.
Shentu Yuanba was somewhat disappointed. He had already guessed something.
"Elder Meng, please speak."
Shentu Yuan was overbearing.
Everyone was curious. Elder Meng was a lamp elder, a Dou Sheng. Why would she ask Shentu Yuanba for help?
"Ning Qi is not bad. I am willing to accept him as a direct disciple. However, I will not force him. After all, he …" Meng Qingling looked at Ning Qi, "He has already rejected me once."
"Hiss …" Yin Chang Zai sucked in a breath of cold air. He could no longer maintain his calm expression as he looked at Ning Qi and Meng Qingling in shock.
"Am I dreaming?"
"Elder Meng wants to accept Ning Qi as a direct disciple?"
"Ning Qi rejected her once?"
"Who can pinch me awake!?"
Hua Wushang's face turned pale as he looked at the scene in disbelief.
Duan Tianying was the same. He felt tired from the repeated blows. If Ning Qi really became a direct disciple, it would be best for him to find a reason to leave the Cloud Rising Sect. That was the only way out!
"I did not bet on the wrong treasure! Hahaha! "
Zong Yin was ecstatic. He looked at Ning Qi as if he was looking at a divine weapon!
"Elder Meng, I …"
Shentu Yuanba was about to agree.
Ning Qi smiled bitterly, "Elder Meng, I think this matter …"
"Don't speak first. Let me finish. I know that you care about the relationship between you and Elder Shentu. So, even if you become my direct disciple, Elder Shentu will still be your master."
Meng Qingling said calmly.
What?
There was such a thing?
What did Ning Qi do to make Elder Meng give in like this?
The outer disciples, normal elders, servant disciples, and deacon elders all looked at Ning Qi as if he was a monster.
Their eyes were filled with envy and jealousy. Apart from that, they had no other thoughts!
Even Duan Yingjun and the rest were extremely envious.
Becoming a direct disciple!
This was the dream of all the deacon elders!
Now, this huge pie had fallen into the hands of Ning Qi, an outer disciple.
This made everyone feel very unbalanced.
Shentu Yuanba was ecstatic and blurted out, "If that's the case, I'm willing."
Ning Qi was also shocked and couldn't help but look at Meng Qingling.
"So, do you agree?"
The corner of Meng Qingling's mouth rose slightly.
"Elder Meng, this disciple is willing."
Ning Qi smiled and cupped his hands together.
"If that's the case, that's good."
Meng Qingling smiled slightly. This smile came from the bottom of her heart. Everyone present could not help but be stunned.
At this moment, Yin Chang Zai's expression was somewhat ugly as he said, "Elder Meng, Ning Qi has seen Xu Zhen. I suspect that he has an ulterior motive for returning to the Cloud Rising Sect. You also know Xu Zhen's character. How could he let a Cloud Rising Sect disciple leave the Dragon Penitentiary so easily …"
Meng Qingling looked at Yin Chang Zai indifferently, "Would my direct disciple be a spy?"
"I …" Yin Chang Zai still wanted to say something.
Meng Qingling suddenly waved her arm and a gust of wind appeared. Yin Chang Zai could not react in time and was swept into the air. He turned into a ray of light and disappeared in front of everyone.
"Too scary. Is this the strength of a Dou Sheng? A Dou Zun with extraordinary cultivation was actually unable to retaliate in front of her! "
