Hearing this, Ajiu's eyes narrowed into slits. This kid was very smart! He had a bright future! He was much more sensible than his stupid boss!
"Good, good, good! It's good that you have this intention, but I don't need you to testify! You have a bunch of secrets, and your butt is not clean. If those cunning old monsters ask you, you will definitely fall into their trap!
In order to deal with Xuanyuan's inevitable questioning, I won't say who he was injured in the battle! That way, they wouldn't target you. Asking you one question and asking everyone else is a different matter altogether!
All these years, my realm has been unstable, so I've always been a little depressed … "
Lou Xiaoyi pecked at the rice like a little chick. "That's right, that's right! Lord Jiu, you've taken on so many battles at the same time. You've worked hard and made great contributions. If it were someone else, it would have been a mess!
This disciple has never fought with Yanyun! How is that possible? My opponents are only those Foundation Establishment cultivators who have been cultivating for more than ten years. He can't match up! "
Of course, Lou Xiaoyi knew what choice he should make! It was best that the dead Yanyun was dead. It would save him a lot of trouble! Jiu Lingjun had obviously failed in his duty and arranged him and Yanyun, who were cultivators of different levels, to fight together! This was a mistake on its part!
However, he wouldn't hold on to it. What could he do if word got out? One was a Foundation Establishment cultivator, the other was a Perfected Cultivator. Wouldn't he be able to turn a big problem into a small one? Other than earning Jiu Lingjun's bad impression, he wouldn't get anything!
Anyway, Yanyun's death was worth it, so he just went with the flow. Wouldn't it be nice to earn a favor?
Ajiu was very satisfied. What he was most afraid of was this little guy's stubborn temper. This was actually very likely because of his background!
But now, it seemed that this little guy was very flexible. This saved him a lot of trouble! Although he felt that he had the obligation to help the little guy, he was still a lazy spirit in essence.
His plan was very successful. At least from the little guy's point of view, he had caught his weakness, so he could rightfully give him some benefits. Perfect!
"Little Yi is very sensible! Lord Jiu is very happy! I won't accept your kindness for nothing. Come, I'll give you a token. In the future, you can use this token to enter the Nine Palace Realm … "
Lou Xiaoyi took the token and said indifferently, "Ninth Master, I'm usually busy with my cultivation, so I might not be able to visit you often …"
What are you doing here? The space was as big as a piece of tofu, and the landscape was very ordinary. Although it was full of spiritual vigor, he did not lack this at the moment …
Ajiu narrowed her eyes. "I'll take advantage of my seniority to say something! Little Yi, you're cultivating in the Star System, right? Don't you feel the difference between the Realm of Nine Palaces and the dome? "
When Lou Xiaoyi heard this, he felt that it made sense. "Master Jiu is right. I seem to be closer to the stars here …"
Ajiu smiled wretchedly. "Look, the difference between the World of Nine Palaces and any other place in the Fifth Ring is that there's no atmospheric barrier here! Therefore, it will be easier for you to sense the stars! Have you ever thought about what would happen if you spent all the time cultivating the Star System in the World of Nine Palaces? "
Lou Xiaoyi was very tempted. This was the best way for him to get rid of cultivators of the same realm! His martial arts were basically based on the stars! However, cultivators only had the ability to fly out of the atmosphere and into the universe when they reached the Yuanying realm. Foundation Establishment Jin Dan could not do anything unless he was loaded into a floating raft and carried here and there. Then …
"Will it be too troublesome for Lord Jiu?"
Ajiu laughed loudly. "No trouble, no trouble. Your Lord Jiu likes to eat braised food, chicken buttocks, duck buttocks, and so on. Bring me more. These things are more ordinary and down-to-earth. It's hard for me to say anything to those old-fashioned people in Xuanyuan …"
On Wenguang Peak, cultivators poured out of the wild beasts' mouths in succession. Seventy-three of them went in, and seventy-two came out. Something had happened!
Yun Xiao and Gu Qi counted nervously, but there was not a single one missing. This was a little strange. Could it be that something had happened to the Inner Sword System?
That couldn't be! The Inner Sword System was the direct line of descent. It would not be their turn. What was going on?
They looked at the old Taoist Master, who nodded solemnly. "Yanyun, something happened! I heard from Jiu Lingjun that something happened during a battle. Jiu Lingjun was not able to save him … "
Yun Xiao and Gu Qi looked at each other. This was even more inconceivable. Of course, they knew Yanyun. He was the person who tortured and killed Yan Cheng. His strength was one of the top among this batch of nineteen Inner Swords. If he was seriously injured and could not be saved, then who was the one who injured him? Was there such a person among the Outer Swords?
Twenty-three ten-year Foundation Establishment cultivators were released on the spot, leaving only thirty-one cultivators above twenty years to be questioned repeatedly. Of course, it was not to find out who was responsible. In fact, the responsibility was very clear. It was just that everyone was too embarrassed to say it out loud!
In fact, they just wanted to know who was pretending to be a pig to eat a tiger. How could they do this? If they found the culprit, they would definitely protect him!
This investigation was destined to be fruitless, because the real culprit was now shopping in the market below Thousand Elegance Peak!
Lou Xiaoyi had some new ideas. He needed to purchase some materials to verify them!
The experience in the Realm of Nine Palaces told him that in the Fifth Ring, his ability was far from being able to achieve perfect protection!
This time, in the Realm of Nine Palaces, he faced cultivators who were less than fifty years Foundation Establishment cultivators. If he left the Dome Roof, he could face cultivators who were seventy years, a hundred years, or even two hundred years Foundation Establishment cultivators. Then, would he have a chance to turn the tables?
Against the Inner Sword System, he had a special ability to restrain the sword pill. However, this was only an internal conflict. If he left the Dome Roof, he would have to fight against those genius cultivators who were on par with the Inner Swords. This trump card of his was meaningless!
Moreover, even if he had a heaven-defying ability against the sword pill, it would not last forever! The reason why he could restrain Yanyun's sword pill was because Yanyun's mastery of the sword pill was not deep enough! If it was an Inner Sword with a firmer will and deeper control of the sword pill, the sword pill might not necessarily retreat!
He did not know the origin of his special ability. He only knew about it when he was choosing the sword pill in the square. At that time, when he just came out of the small world of the sword tomb, the sword pill retreated from him. Because of this, it caused a lot of trouble. However, he knew that there was a limit to this retreating. He could not rely on this as a basis to fight!
Occasionally, when things came to a head, it was because he had no other choice. However, he could not rely on this as a basis!
He still did not understand Jiu Lingjun's invitation. The relationship between cultivators was very complicated. Some invitations were indeed sincere, while others were just out of politeness. Jiu Lingjun really did not know what was good for him!
For someone like Jiu Lingjun, his position in the Xuanyuan Sword School was extraordinary and unique. He did not believe that the death of a Foundation Establishment cultivator, even if it was a precious Inner Sword, would have any effect on him!
Even if he knew that Jiu Lingjun had committed dereliction of duty by mixing cultivators of different levels together, so what? Was he unpardonably evil?
However, Jiu Lingjun's invitation was indeed very attractive to him. Therefore, he thought that he would not be in a hurry to go in and cultivate. Instead, he would wait for a period of time to bring some gifts to sound out Jiu Lingjun's attitude. Then, he would decide what to do next!
Relationships had to be maintained. The first principle of interaction was to not be annoying! Not to be as clingy as a dog skin plaster!
