There is a fairly large open space at the mountain gate, which is said to be able to accommodate all the disciples of the sect.
Even the sect ceremony that is about to begin will be held here.
Therefore, there is no problem in allowing a disciple to test the magic weapon.
Tushan Xiaohua ran holding the hairpin, and the expression on her face slowly changed from suspicion to surprise!
It’s indeed 20%!
And she was counting, it had been more than fifteen breaths, and the effect had not diminished!
After about thirty breaths, the effect disappeared.
"This magical weapon is amazing! Junior Sister, are you sure it's priced at nine hundred crystals? That was agreed upon beforehand. You're not allowed to raise the price!"
She was halfway through her words when she became afraid that Ning Zhishui would raise the price suddenly after hearing what she said, so she made the following addition.
But after she finished speaking, her cheeks turned red, probably because she felt she had gone too far.
There was no other way. She was short of money and it was a great effort for her to come up with nine hundred.
If the other party really raised the price, she was afraid she wouldn't be able to buy it.
"Of course it won't go up. Just take it for 900." Ning Zhishui has already set the price, so why would he raise the price?
"Huh...thank you, Junior Sister."
Tushan Xiaohua smiled.
Tushan Xiaohua deftly took out the crystal, inserted the hairpin into her hair, said something, and hurriedly left the sect.
Now that she has the things, she will have more time if she goes earlier, so that she can get back in time to attend the ceremony.
It would be terrible if I couldn't catch up. I would be scolded to death by my master and uncle.
Ning Zhishui put away the crystal and was about to leave when someone stopped him.
"Hey, don't leave."
Ning Zhishui turned around and asked, "Oh, Junior-Martial Brother Jiao...what do you want from me?"
Isn’t this Jiao Cheng!
However, Jiao Cheng was not alone. He was accompanied by several disciples of the same age, three men and one woman.
"Who is your nephew? Don't call me that!" Jiao Cheng was very unhappy when he heard this harsh name. "You are not even as old as me, so it sounds easy to call me that."
Jiao Cheng is tall and thin, with a gloomy expression, thin lips, and a pointed chin, giving him a mean look.
"So, you want me to call you senior brother? Does Senior Sister Jiao agree with this?" Ning Zhishui asked.
"Bah, my mother is not your senior sister, stop flattering yourself! I don't know where this little girl came from, but she actually took the position of the Great Elder's disciple. Do you think you are worthy?"
Jiao Cheng was extremely anxious and angry.
"I'm not worthy, but you are?" Ning Zhishui found it funny. "I just joined the sect, but you've been here for a long time before. Your mother is also familiar with my master. It's said that those who are close to the water get the moon first, so why haven't you succeeded?"
Jiao Cheng's face turned red immediately, he was embarrassed and angry.
Ning Zhishui knew that he had guessed right.
From the attitude of the mother and son towards him, it can be seen that he is probably blocking Jiao Cheng's way.
But is this really the case?
"Shut up! If it weren't for you, the Great Elder would definitely have accepted Brother Jiao as his apprentice!"
The female disciple next to Jiao Cheng cried out in dissatisfaction.
The little girl is quite pretty, with red lips and white teeth, and she looks delicate and cute, but the way she looks at people is not very appealing.
"That's interesting. I didn't stop it, so why are you blaming me?" Ning Zhishui tilted his head. "Jiao, you wanted to be my master's disciple so badly, so why didn't you succeed? Was it you who didn't want to? Or...my master didn't want to?"
Ning Zhishui just didn't believe that before he became a disciple, the Jiao family mother and son had never consulted the Great Elder about becoming his disciple.
If I look for it but it doesn't work... then it definitely won't be my problem.
How dare this person put the blame on her?
"You, you...you must have used some despicable means to force the Great Elder to accept you as his disciple!" Jiao Cheng roared.
Ning Zhishui's face also darkened.
While they were talking, many monks passing by stopped to watch, and after hearing what they said, they began to whisper to each other.
"Jiao-nephew! Please be careful with your words! Everyone knows the great reputation of the Great Elder within the sect, and you can't just casually smear or slander him!" Ning Zhishui looked at him coldly, "I'm just an ordinary cultivator. There must be a reason why the Great Elder chose me. Who are you to say anything? You say my methods are despicable, so why not explain clearly in front of everyone how I forced the Great Elder to bow his head and reluctantly accept me?"
Jiao Cheng looked around, a little panicked, "I...how would I know? Who knows what you did!"
"Since you don't know, how dare you speak so brazenly and slander me and the Great Elder out of thin air!"
"I don't……"
"Hmph, you ignorant brat! I'd like to go with you to ask Senior Sister Jiao and see how she explains this! It's fine if you slander me, but you absolutely must not smear the Great Elder. Even if this matter gets to the head master, I'm not afraid!"
Ning Zhishui said this as he walked over in two or three steps, grabbed Jiao Cheng's wrist and walked towards Chaoyang Peak.
Of course they were going to Chaoyang Peak. Ning Zhishui was not so stupid as to take Jiao Cheng directly back to Yanliao Peak, his and Jiao Yue’s territory.
Naturally, they would go to Chaoyang Peak to find the Sect Leader, and on the way, they would send a message to tell the Great Elder about the matter, and then everyone would meet at the Sect Leader's place.
If we go directly to Yanliao Peak, Jiao Yue will definitely suppress the matter, as we cannot cause any trouble in someone else's territory.
It was different when she went to the Sect Leader's place. She could see that the Sect Leader admired her quite a bit. Besides, she was in the right in this matter, and she didn't believe that the Sect Leader would side with Jiao Cheng.
Ning Zhishui pulled Jiao Cheng and wanted to leave without saying anything. Jiao Cheng's face turned pale and he tried to push her away and back away.
But Ning Zhishui's cultivation was higher than Jiao Cheng's, and he couldn't break free at all!
"No... I'm talking nonsense. I won't go..."
There was a cry in his voice, and people started to tremble with fear.
Only now did he begin to feel scared and realize what he had just said.
He actually said that the Great Elder was forced to accept Ning Zhishui, and that Ning Zhishui used some despicable means... Doesn't this mean that the Great Elder and Ning Zhishui reached some shameful deal!
He had said the wrong thing. He should have just scolded Ning Zhishui. He absolutely shouldn't have involved the Great Elder...
When Jiao Cheng thought about the consequences if this matter got out of hand, he was so scared that he almost cried.
Even his mother couldn't protect him from this!
That’s it?
What a waste.
Ning Zhishui sneered, but did not let up at all.
"What are you doing? Let Senior Brother Jiao go!" The pretty female cultivator was also frightened, but still stepped forward to stop Ning Zhishui.
But even if their skills are combined, they still cannot defeat Ning Zhishui!
Now Ning Zhishui was extremely glad that he was only beginning to feel scared and realize what he had just said.
He actually said that the Great Elder was forced to accept Ning Zhishui, and that Ning Zhishui used some despicable means... Doesn't this mean that the Great Elder and Ning Zhishui reached some shameful deal!
