After Lu Qing had reached the second level of divine movement, he changed into plain black clothes and flew directly to the outside of the City Lord's Mansion in Bei'an City.

Originally, Lu Qing wanted to use the teleportation array, so that he could save a layer of divine movement and save some time waiting for the cooldown.

However, there are players on the mountain. If they see us, they will definitely follow us.

I haven't been to Bei'an City for some time, and it seems that this city has not changed much.

The City Lord's Mansion has been renovated, and the entrance is more imposing than before.

The plaque with the three words "City Lord's Mansion" was also replaced with a seven-character plaque with the words "Cangxia Sect Bei'an City Hub".

There are four guards at the gate of the City Lord's Mansion.

The guard was tall and strong, and looked like a martial arts expert.

It's okay against mortals, but it won't be effective against immortal cultivators.

Although the City Lord's Mansion and the commercial street are both in the center of Beian City, there is still a street separating the two.

The bustle on the street didn't spread over here at all.

There were no pedestrians, and the street where the City Lord's Mansion was located was clean and bright, appearing somewhat solemn.

Lu Qing walked towards the door, and two guards stopped him with their arms outstretched.

"I'm looking for Liu He."

The two guards were a head taller than Lu Qing. After hearing Lu Qing speak, they did not answer but just looked at Lu Qing directly.

Lu Qing couldn't help but laugh.

It is easy to deal with the King of Hell, but it is difficult to deal with the little ghosts.

I didn’t expect that I would meet a little ghost when I went to Bei’an City?

A seventh-rank official in front of the prime minister, right?

As long as Lu Qing shows the aura of the third level of Qi Refining, or just reveals a little green light, he can solve this problem.

However, before Lu Qing could make any move, another guard trotted over and stood between Lu Qing and the guards, saying with an apologetic smile, "Excuse me, who are you looking for?"

"Liu He."

"So you are looking for Master Liu!" The guard was surprised and looked at Lu Qing with a little more respect.

However, this acting was too superficial, which made Lu Qing feel that it was as hypocritical as the "I'll treat you to dinner next time" said by some people he had only met briefly in the past.

What kind of medicine is this selling?

Lu Qing was a little curious, so he nodded and wanted to see what happened next.

"It's really unfortunate. Immortal Master Liu has been in seclusion recently and has instructed us not to disturb him unless it's important..." The guard suddenly changed the subject and whispered, "Are you the Immortal Master?"

"Yes." Lu Qing admitted frankly.

The guard's expression changed slightly, and he said flatteringly, "Master Immortal, I wonder what you want to talk to Immortal Master Liu about? I'll help you get in and pass it on immediately!"

"Just say that Lu Qing is looking for him."

"It's Master Lu. Please come in with me! Come in and have some tea and take a rest!" said the guard, and walked in.

But before he had taken two steps, the two guards stopped him again and said in a muffled voice, "We have orders from above. We must follow the rules. Please forgive me, Immortal Master."

Still not letting in?

"Are there any more rules?" Lu Qing asked.

The guard patted the guard who was blocking the way with a smile, muttering something in a very anxious tone. Upon hearing Lu Qing's question, he turned around, bent down and whispered, "Master, please forgive me! This rule... This, this City Lord's Mansion is, after all, an important place in Bei'an City. Bei'an City is also the territory of the Mountain Immortal Sect. We need to be more cautious. This is also the requirement from above..."

"You are the immortal master, even if you give us a hundred courages, we would not dare to make things difficult for you!!" As he spoke, the expression on the guard's face looked as if he was about to cry out of anxiety.

"Get to the point."

"To be honest, you need to make an appointment to see Immortal Master Liu. As you know, recently, you great immortal masters have all been rushing to Bei'an City to see Immortal Master Liu. But Immortal Master Liu is only one person after all, so you need to schedule a date to see him..."

Lu Qing nodded, indicating that he understood.

The monks from other places did not dare to enter the mountains, so they could only make indirect inquiries in Bei'an City, inquire about information, and establish relationships.

As the external liaison of Cangxia Sect, Liu He is naturally a hot celebrity in their eyes.

"...If you want to see Immortal Master Liu, the appointment is already scheduled for half a month from now!" The guard said in embarrassment, "The person in charge of the appointment is greedy and evil. We brothers are caught in the middle and dare not offend either side! Please forgive me, Immortal Master! Please forgive me, Immortal Master!"

I see.

Lu Qing finally understood what these guards were up to.

It's all about benefits.

Are you so bold as to act like a coward in front of the Immortal Master?

But after thinking about it for a while, Lu Qing understood the connection.

At present, the Cangxia Sect has become famous and renowned. Most of the cultivators who come to Bei'an City ask to see the Cangxia Sect members in a humble manner, hoping to make friends with the Cangxia Sect.

As an external liaison, even though Liu He's cultivation level is not high, his status and position are there. If you want to see him, you really have to ask for it.

Based on his understanding of Liu He, Lu Qing felt that he would not be so stupid.

But there were indeed many monks who came to see him.

So, the appointment scheduling should be real.

But it was probably the guards' own idea to get the benefits.

They didn't know the Immortal Master's level of cultivation, they only knew that these people had something to ask of their master.

If they need help from their master, then it won't be difficult for them.

A little gift from the Immortal Master can make them rich and maybe even lead them to the path of immortality!

There are definitely risks.

But compared with the benefits, this risk is nothing to worry about!

Lu Qing remembered that when he first came to Bei'an City, these guards were not even close to the level of Jianghu masters. Now, each of them has a strong internal energy, so they must have succeeded many times.

Those who can guard the City Lord’s Mansion must be powerful and loyal.
