Jiang Zhiling and Feng Qing were also stunned.
I never expected that Zhan Ji, who looks ordinary, has such a good aptitude for cultivation!
Zhan Ji asked with a confused look on her face, "What's the matter? Do I have a good talent for cultivation?"
"It's more than just great!" Jiang Deng complained, "You're a true genius! With your talent, the Sect Master might even accept you as his personal disciple."
As she spoke, Jiang Deng couldn't help but feel a little sad. Why was it that everyone around her either had natural or unusual spiritual roots, but she was the only one with useless spiritual roots? However... when she thought about her own cultivation speed, which was five times faster than that of natural spiritual roots, Jiang Deng suddenly stopped feeling sad.
What? Even the Sect Master would accept her as his personal disciple?
Zhan Ji's heart was pounding. This was a path she had never imagined, and her heart was beating wildly out of her control.
If she could also practice...
But as soon as she thought of this, Zhan Ji shook her head violently, "No, I can't practice!"
"ah?"
All three of them looked at Zhan Ji with confusion.
Zhan Ji fumbled to explain, "Women can't practice cultivation! If they do... they'll be reborn as pigs in their next life! Pigs! How horrible!"
Everyone: “…”
Let’s not talk about the fact that this is just a bluff from the editor-in-chief of Feiran Lingyu. Let’s just say that if you can’t even live a good life in this life, why would you care about your next life?
Zhan Ji met everyone's puzzled looks. She didn't know what was wrong with her, so she turned around and ran back to Qingfeng Tower as if there was a monster chasing her.
The three of them looked at each other and sighed.
Zhan Ji didn't want to practice, and they couldn't force her, but they couldn't help feeling very regretful in their hearts.
At this moment, Jiang Deng keenly noticed that the mountain-protecting sword formation at the gate of Cangfeng Mountain had been triggered, and then a voice sounded above Cangfeng.
"Jiang Deng! Come out to this Peak Master!"
Jiang Deng's eyes widened slightly. Hmm? The voice sounded like that of Yunwu Peak's master, Yun Bozhong?
At the foot of Zangfeng Mountain.
Seeing that the time to deliver the goods to the buyer was approaching, Yun Bozhong was unwilling to pay ten times the compensation to the other party, so he brought a group of his disciples to gather at the foot of Cangfeng Mountain, wanting to snatch his spirit beast back.
Of course, to achieve this goal, he had to first call Jiang Deng out, beat her up, and then force her to return the spirit beast! However, ahead was the extremely dangerous mountain-protecting sword formation. Yun Bozhong didn't dare to intrude, so he had to use voice transmission to enter.
Soon, Jiang Deng's response was heard at the mountain gate. "We are all peak masters, with the same level. If you ask me to leave, I will leave. Why? Because you are older?"
Yun Bozhong, a handsome middle-aged man, blushed and said angrily, "So what do you want?"
Jiang Deng said cheerfully, "Come in and invite me!"
"I'll go in if you turn off the mountain-protecting sword formation!"
"If you ask me to shut it down, I will shut it down. Wouldn't that make me lose face?"
Yun Bozhong's eyes rolled back, and he almost fainted from anger. Even his voice began to tremble, "Jiang Deng! If you have the guts to steal my spirit beast, then you have the guts to open the mountain-protecting sword formation and let me in!"
Jiang Deng retorted bluntly, "If you don't have the ability to keep an eye on your spirit beast, or pass the mountain-protecting sword formation, then just shut up!"
“…”
Just as Jiang Deng and Yun Bozhong were arguing fiercely, someone suddenly squeezed into the crowd and staggered to the mountain gate.
Yun Bozhong immediately shut up and looked at the sharp-nosed and monkey-faced Steward Zhou beside him. He said unhappily, "Steward Zhou, what are you doing here?"
Steward Zhou stroked his beard and said with a grin, "Peak Master Yun, the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall has a lot of chores to attend to. If I had nothing else to do, I wouldn't be running around like you. This time, I'm here on Peak Master's orders to deliver Peak Master Jiang's monthly salary."
Hearing this, Yun Bozhong's face turned even uglier. Was this Zhou implying that he was neglecting his duties?
Thinking of this, Yun Bozhong sneered, "I've been calling for the sword formation to close for a long time, but it still hasn't closed. Are you sure Jiang Deng will let you in? You'd better come back another day!"
"I don't believe anyone would mess with spirit stones," Manager Zhou cleared his throat and shouted to the inside of Cang Peak, "Zhou Hai, the manager of the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall, brings this month's salary and requests an audience with the Master of Cang Peak!"
"Manager Zhou, please come in."
As Jiang Deng finished speaking, a sword beam flew out from the rocks and attached to Zhou Hai. The next moment, Zhou Hai automatically stepped into the mountain protection sword formation. The sword formation was not activated and did not hurt him at all.
Hmm? Is the sword formation closed?
Yun Bozhong's eyes lit up, and he grabbed a mortal beside him and threw him towards the mountain protection sword formation.
"ah!"
Before the mortal could even land on the ground, he was chopped into meat paste by countless sword energies that suddenly shot out, and not even a complete corpse was left.
Exclamations rang out one after another, and the disciples surrounding Yun Bozhong all stepped aside, fearing that the peak master would be unhappy and throw them out.
Yun Bozhong's expression turned horrible. It turned out that Jiang Deng hadn't exploited a loophole to enter the Hidden Peak, but had truly mastered the Mountain Protecting Sword Formation! In fact, her control was so perfect that it was as if this Mountain Protecting Sword Formation had originally belonged to her...
what to do?
Yun Bozhong's expression was uncertain. If Jiang Deng kept hiding inside like a turtle and didn't come out, wouldn't he have no way to deal with her?
Could it be that he really had to give all his spiritual beasts and spiritual medicines to Jiang Deng at a discount?
no!
Yun Bozhong gritted his teeth. If all else failed, he could only use that person...
"Let's go!"
Yun Bozhong flicked his sleeves and left with his disciples.
It really comes and goes in a hurry...
——
Hidden inside the peak.
Jiang Deng sat in front of the stone table, her chin supported by her hand, watching Manager Zhou come to her.
Although Manager Zhou is a little ugly, his strength is quite good. He is actually in the late Nascent Soul stage. No wonder he dared to argue with Yun Bozhong at the mountain gate.
"Master Jiang Feng, this is your monthly salary."
Manager Zhou poured out a pile of sparkling, extremely transparent high-quality spirit stones from his storage bag. These spirit stones were more dazzling and beautiful than jade.
One thousand!
A full one thousand high-grade spirit stones!
Jiang Deng couldn't help but open his arms and hold them in his arms, with a happy smile on his face.
Manager Zhou chuckled and then took out two extremely unique jade stones from his storage bag and placed them on the table. "These are the identity jade tokens for you and your sister."
Jiang Deng took it and looked at it, and found that the two jade tokens were very different. The jade token with Jiang Zhiling's name on it was more like the jade tokens they were given during the entrance examination, while the jade token with her name on it was very different.
It is shaped like a heavy blunt sword, with a light blue color all over. Its material is as crystal clear as glass. The two big characters "Jiang Deng" are written on the front, and "Taichu Sword Sect" and "Zangfeng" are written on the back.
Seeing Jiang Deng staring at the jade token, Manager Zhou explained, "This jade token of yours is equivalent to your Peak Master's token. Once you take it out, everyone will know that you are the Peak Master of Cang Peak. You can directly enter the other six spiritual peaks with the token."
