These days, they had been in a stalemate. Lu Pingan had been given full authority to handle the negotiations. Seeing that Chen Dongcheng’s aura was getting weaker by the day, he grew more and more anxious. It could be said that he was looking forward to this personal disciple who could hold a great position to bring him good news as soon as possible. Unfortunately, his hopes were clearly going to be dashed again.

“Master, not yet.” Lu Pingan was a little embarrassed. Not only did Chen Jiu have high hopes for him, but even he himself had been holding back his energy these days, preparing to show off his skills. In the end, his direct negotiation opponent was Xin Yijie, who was practically the most unremarkable golden core stage high-ranking member of the blue cloud School on the northern island.

Whether it was in terms of strength, status, or schemes, Lu Pingan believed that he could at least shake off the other party by Ten Streets. However, he did not expect that such a simple and ordinary old man would suddenly become an old wily Fox that was impervious to fire and water after sitting at the negotiation table. No matter what tactics he used, he would always be kicked back to his feet.

That wasn’t all. The main point was that Xin Yijie wasn’t just a ball-kicking player. Every time, he was actually reasonable and justified. Lu Pingan couldn’t find any room to refute him face to face. He could only sigh at how strange he was.

You can’t judge a book by its cover, right?

“You’re too slow. ” Chen Jiu’s gaze was a little unpredictable. Although there was no need to doubt a person, and the other party was also his most accomplished personal disciple, there was nothing to doubt, but he was a suspicious person by nature. It was inevitable that he would become suspicious over time. Moreover, from Lu Pingan’s perspective, he did have such a motive. After all, if they really exhausted Chen Dongcheng to death, Lu Pingan was very likely to be the one who benefited the most.

“Yes, I have disappointed you. I will definitely negotiate and buy time for Deputy sect leader Chen.” Lu Pingan was so frightened by this that he quickly expressed his loyalty.

“Tell me, what happened?” Chen Jiu glanced at him. Although Lu Pingan didn’t suffer any serious injuries, he was in an unprecedented state. In the entire Qingyun school of the northern island, there were only a few people who could pose a threat to a peak late-stage golden core cultivator like him, unless Lin Yi made a move himself.

“Yes, snow sword sect’s Bing Wuqing came to visit, asking to see Lin Yi. After I rejected her, he changed his request and asked to see you, master.” Lu Ping ‘an said respectfully.

“Bing Wuqing?” Chen Jiu thought about it for a moment. He had a vague impression of it and casually said,””Isn’t he just a little kid who has just advanced to the Golden core stage? just send him away. Do you need to report such a trivial matter?”

“Uh, I thought so at first, but I can ‘T. He’s a newly advanced nascent soul expert. I can’t drive him away …” Lu Pingan could only smile bitterly.

“What? Yuanying stage?” Even Chen Jiu couldn’t help but be shocked when he heard this. The birth of any new nascent soul old monster was a major event that could shake the entire small Jianghu of the immemorial era. Due to the great difficulty of breaking through to the nascent soul realm, it would take at least a few years. Normally, they would have received news in advance. How did this guy succeed without a sound? moreover, Bing Wuqing was so young. Could it be a smokescreen?

Seeing Chen Jiu’s confusion, Lu Pingan hurriedly said,””It’s true. This disciple and the other elders have personally felt his Qi. He is indeed a Yuanying stage master, there is no doubt about it. ”

“Lead the way,” Chen Jiu immediately said sternly. Lu Pingan would not lie to him about such matters. Since he had confirmed that the other party was a nascent soul old monster, he had to personally appear. Otherwise, Lu Pingan alone would not be able to deal with it. He was not qualified enough.

Very quickly, Chen Jiu appeared in front of Bing Wuqing. He walked up to her and chuckled,””Everyone says that Bing Wuqing of the snow sword sect is an unprecedented super genius. I didn’t believe it before, but today, I have no choice but to believe it. If I remember correctly, my young friend Wuqing is probably the youngest nascent Soul Stage expert in the history of our small Jianghu in the immemorial age. Congratulations!”

“You’re flattering me. I’m not the youngest. The legendary figure of your sect, known as the great emperor, should be younger than me, right?” Bing Wuqing said seriously.

“…” Chen Jiu’s smile immediately turned a little awkward. He had said that his flattering words just now were purely for the sake of making small talk. Who knew that the other party would be so insensible as to directly refute him in person? he was indeed young.

“I’d like to pay a visit to your sect’s grand-uncle Lin Yi. He said that you, the Grand Elder, have to make a decision personally. I wonder if you can fulfill this small request of mine?” Bing Wuqing went straight to the point.

“This …” Chen Jiu pretended to be hesitant on the surface, but in fact, he couldn’t help but start cursing in his heart. Bing Wuqing was a hothead who didn’t know the rules at all. Not only did she completely ignore the customary rules of visiting the sect, but even her tone was so stiff. How did this guy suddenly become a nascent soul expert?

However, even though he was cursing, Chen Jiu couldn’t show it on his face. After all, the other party was an out-and-out Yuanying stage expert. Even if he was a bit stronger than him, he didn’t dare to directly shed all pretense of cordiality and fight head-on. What if both sides were injured in the fight?

Besides, even if he could kill Bing Wuqing on the spot, he would definitely be severely injured. But, don’t forget that there was another nascent soul realm old monster in the snow sword sect besides Bing Wuqing. If he came to seek revenge, how would he deal with him?

In the small Jianghu of the immemorial era, every nascent soul old monster was equivalent to a nuclear weapon in the secular world. They must not attack easily. Otherwise, it would develop into a World War that would not end until one of them was dead. For every sect involved, that would be an unbearable disaster.

“You’re the Grand Elder, don’t tell me you don’t have the authority to do so?” Bing Wuqing said with a frown.

“Hehe, you must be joking, young friend. Of course I have the power to do so, but Lin Yi is currently in seclusion at the ascending cliff. Even I can’t interrupt him, or there might be unimaginable consequences. In my opinion, if young friend really wants to see grand uncle-master Taigu, why don’t you wait for a while?” Chen Jiu said perfunctorily.

“Wait?” Bing Wuqing raised her eyebrows.

“That’s right, little friend has never been to my North island’s Green cloud School. During this period of time, you can travel around and experience the local customs of my North Island. When the martial granduncle Taigu comes out of seclusion, this old man will naturally send someone to inform you as soon as possible. What do you think, little friend?” Chen Jiu suggested.

Bing Wuqing muttered to herself for a moment, and finally nodded. If it weren’t for the fact that he had just advanced to the nascent Soul Stage, and his strength and realm had yet to be completely stabilized, even if he were to face a veteran nascent soul old monster like Chen Jiu, he might still force his way through the cliff of ascending to heaven given his personality.
