220 Do you want to listen to what you are saying?
Ning Yao was stunned for a moment by the number of concubines. He suspected that he had heard wrongly: "How many rooms?"
"One. One. One. Eight. Ten. Rooms!" Ren Yuan said word by word.
Ning Yao hissed, "Why are there so many?"
"If you were as unscrupulous as she is in robbing and stealing, you would not be able to have so many concubines." Ren Yuan said unhappily.
Ning Yao couldn't help but imagine himself being surrounded by one hundred and eighty swords, and felt a little envious.
"Brother, what are you laughing at?" Jiang Xin asked in confusion.
Ning Yao quickly put on a stern face, hid his previous imagination, and told himself that he was different from Qiao Shihui.
All his swords are his wives and are equal.
Unlike Qiao Shihui, the person she robbed could only be a concubine and was not given any respect at all.
"Qiao Shihui is suspected to be practicing the art of collecting and replenishing energy. If you practice dual cultivation with her, your energy will be drained away sooner or later. Your friend is probably in great danger." Ning Yao said.
"Then you guessed wrong. He is still alive and well, but his cultivation has dropped to the Foundation Establishment Stage." Ren Yuan said with a complicated tone.
He didn't want the other party to get into trouble, but he also disdained the other party's flattery, and he felt very conflicted.
This made Ning Yao confused: "According to our investigation, many people's life cards shattered quickly after being abducted, which means how long it took for them to be killed after being captured. How did your friend survive until now?"
"Maybe he is gifted." Ren Yuan guessed, and said helplessly, "In fact, I am not familiar with him. I met him by chance during my training. We worked together to defeat a Nascent Soul stage monster. We were in trouble together and became friends. He said he was a casual cultivator, and I didn't tell him that I was a disciple of Kunlun Palace."
Because of rumors that Kunlun Palace is the descendant of immortals, there are always people who want to capture Kunlun Palace disciples to study shortcuts to becoming immortals.
When you are out, you must be on guard against others. Ren Yuan understands this principle.
If he had not known in advance that Jiang Xin and others were disciples of Tianshui Sect, and he had not been at the end of his rope, Ren Yuan would not have dared to reveal this matter easily.
Accompanying each other all the way, Ren Yuan felt that his new friend had good character and was a friend worth making close friends with.
But before the two sides could have a good chat, Qiao Shihui lured him here and arrested him.
The disciples of Kunlun Palace have always been arrogant, so Ren Yuan naturally doesn't like the other party's compromise.
But right now he couldn't even protect himself, so he could understand the other party's difficulties.
Suddenly, a "clicking" sound of teeth rubbing against each other was heard at the end of the passage, and the "prison door" that had been tightly closed opened.
Ning Yao signaled everyone to be quiet and listened carefully to the noise coming from there.
In the silence, a very light sound of footsteps was gradually approaching.
[Someone is coming.] 】
Jiang Xin craned her neck and looked outside curiously.
Ning Yao pulled her behind him and reached out to tightly grasp the hilt of the sword.
They had reached the end of the passage and there was nowhere to escape.
As long as the other party comes in, we will meet them, so we must prepare early.
Ren Yuan recognized the source of the footsteps, raised his voice, and shouted hoarsely: "Get lost, I will not yield to this witch!"
The light footsteps paused, then continued to approach.
Ren Yuan was anxious and continued to shout: "You don't have to come over to persuade me, I don't want to see your face! You——"
Before he finished speaking, an unexpected laugh rang out in the corridor: "Wow, so lively?"
The person who came was a handsome young man with a pair of peach blossom eyes. He looked at Ning Yao and the other two, then looked at Ren Yuan who was protected by Ning Yao, and said with a hint of resentment: "I was wondering why you were so mean to me today. It turns out you have a new lover. Are you afraid that I'll see them and make them jealous?"
Ning Yao: “???”
Do you want to listen to what you are saying? ? ?
Ren Yuan sighed in frustration: "Don't make fun of me. Aren't you favored by Qiao Shihui? How come you don't even know what happened in the other courtyard today?"
The boy with peach blossom eyes looked at Ning Yao for a moment, then suddenly realized: "Are you the one that Qiao Shihui captured today?"
"It's three people." Jiang Xin emphasized seriously, whispering to Jiang Xiao, "Why can't this person count?"
Jiang Xiao felt so sorry for him: "Yeah, he's such a grown-up, but he can't even count. How pitiful."
The inexplicably sympathetic young man with peach blossom eyes was silent for a moment, then silently changed the topic: "Sorry, let me ask again. Excuse me, are you the three people captured by Qiao Shihui today?"
"I guess so." Ning Yao looked at the young man with peach blossom eyes, thinking, "Are you really a casual cultivator?"
The young man with peach blossom eyes smiled but said nothing.
"He is a disciple of the Hehuan Sect." Jiang Xin said.
The peach blossom eyed boy was surprised: "How did you know?"
Jiang Xin smiled proudly: "Aunt took me to the Hehuan Sect. The mental method you use is the same as those of the brothers and sisters in the sect."
After she said this, Ren Yuan and Ning Yao instantly understood why Wen Ziqi was able to deal with Qiao Shihui's technique of collecting and replenishing energy.
Although his identity was exposed, the boy with peach blossom eyes was not embarrassed. He just looked at Jiang Xin.
The fact that this child can recognize the Hehuan Sect's mental method shows that he has a family tradition of learning.
Normally, no one would bring a child as old as Jiang Xin to the Hehuan Sect, unless she was the child of a friend of a Hehuan Sect disciple, then someone would bring their whole family to the Hehuan Sect.
If that's the case, then there's nothing to hide.
The young man with peach blossom eyes bowed and said, "I am Wen Ziqi from the Hehuan Sect."
Ren Yuan was angry: "Why did you lie to me that you were a casual cultivator?"
Wen Ziqi snorted, "Didn't you tell me you were from Kunlun Palace?"
"Isn't it because there are always people who want to capture Kunlun Palace disciples, so I'm afraid?" Ren Yuan felt guilty for a moment, and then realized that something was wrong, "How do you know I'm a disciple of Kunlun Palace?"
Wen Ziqi sneered: "I'm not blind. You are wearing a Kunlun brocade and you are using the Ice and Frost Technique. I can guess that you are a disciple of Kunlun Palace."
There are few people in Kunlun Palace, and they rarely participate in the affairs of the cultivation world. At one point, people thought that the sect's inheritance had been cut off.
The outside world knows very little about Kunlun Palace, and many people even think that it is a legendary ancient sect.
The Hehuan Sect is a large sect, and the sect’s treasured books record some of the events of the Kunlun Palace.
Wen Ziqi had happened to have read it, and when he saw Ren Yuan for the first time, he remembered the records in the book and made some guesses.
But the other party didn't want to say it clearly, so he didn't dare to ask more.
Anyway, their Hehuan Sect has a bad reputation, and disciples of the Hehuan Sect with low cultivation levels are unwilling to reveal their identities when they are training outside, so as not to cause unnecessary trouble.
Now we are finally speaking frankly.
Apart from concealing their identities, the two of them did not do anything unfair to each other and were able to understand each other's difficulties, so the page was quickly turned.
Wen Ziqi's eyes fell on Ning Yao and the other two: "What are your names?"
Qi Lanqing has a good relationship with Fairy Hehuan, so Jiang Xin said truthfully: "We are disciples of the Tianshui Sect."
Wen Ziqi was surprised: "Is this true? A disciple of Tianshui Sect dares to reveal his identity in public?"
Jiang Xin raised her head and chest and said proudly: "We are the true disciples of Tianshui Sect. We dare to do what we do and take responsibility for what we do. Of course, we dare to announce our identities."
Wen Ziqi didn't know where her pride came from.
If you, disciples of the Tianshui Sect, dare to do things but not take responsibility, your reputation might not be so bad.
