Under Huo Sheng's guidance, the group returned to the inner courtyard.
Qin Xin's mind was always filled with the image of Luo Lingyan.
Qin Xin finally came to his senses after hearing Long Mu and Ming Ningzhu's farewell.
Before leaving, Ming Ningzhu said to Qin Xin, "You've offended Xia Qi, so I'm afraid you won't be able to stay in the Great Xia Dynasty in the future. However, with your talent in alchemy, if you join the Black Dragon City Pill Tower directly, I believe my grandfather will definitely cultivate you well."
Ming Ningzhu's obvious attempt to recruit Qin Xin into the Black Dragon City Pill Tower naturally attracted the attention of some inner court disciples. However, she seemed completely unconcerned. After all, in the Eastern Wilderness Academy, disciples must leave after the age of thirty unless they join the management of the Eastern Wilderness Academy or become the core disciples of the elders.
Therefore, some factions will choose to recruit disciples with strong talents in advance.
Qin Xin shook his head, indicating his refusal. Ming Ningzhu didn't say anything, only that she had decided to go directly to the Black Dragon City Pill Tower, and then turned and left.
An invitation from the Black Dragon City Pill Tower was something countless inner court disciples dreamed of. Some inner court disciples didn't expect Qin Xin to refuse so directly, and for a moment they all looked at Qin Xin as if he were an idiot.
Qin Xin pretended not to notice these strange looks.
Huo Sheng and Long Mu stood to the side without leaving. Qin Xin noticed this and quickly stepped forward, saying, "Elder Huo, this junior will take his leave now."
Seeing Qin Xin about to leave, Long Mu wanted to ask Qin Xin to take him with him, but behind Huo Sheng, he didn't dare to speak, and just looked at Qin Xin with a bitter expression on his face.
Huo Sheng was naturally aware of Long Mu's thoughts. After a helpless sigh, he said, "Qin Xin, I may need your help with something else."
Upon hearing Huo Sheng's request, Qin Xin quickly replied, "Elder Huo, please give your orders. This junior will do my utmost."
Most martial artists would be eager to receive a request from a senior like Huo Sheng, but Qin Xin was actually unwilling. However, Huo Sheng was too powerful and was the top alchemist in the Eastern Wilderness. If he offended him, Qin Xin might not even know how he died.
"I've done this to you again and again, I'm afraid you have quite a few complaints in your heart, young man," Huo Sheng said bluntly, as if he could see through Qin Xin's thoughts.
Qin Xin quickly waved his hand and said, "No, no, it is my honor to be able to help you, senior."
The shrewd and calculating Huo Sheng naturally didn't believe Qin Xin's polite words. He then said, "I see that little Long Mu is quite close to you. As an old man, I'll naturally find it a bit boring. I'd like him to stay with you for a while."
Hearing that Huo Sheng was going to assign Long Mu to him, Qin Xin felt a headache coming on. His cave dwelling on the main peak of Kunmen was almost becoming a refuge. Ya Ru alone was already a headache enough. If Long Mu came too, his cave dwelling would probably be in chaos every day.
Just as he was about to refuse, Long Mu suddenly rushed up and covered Qin Xin's mouth with his small hand.
While covering Qin Xin's mouth, Long Mu nodded repeatedly and said, "Okay, okay, I happen to like Qin Xin quite a bit. Please take care of yourself, I'll go see Qin Xin now."
With his mouth gagged, Qin Xin could only make muffled noises. He hadn't expected that Long Mu's small body would have such strong physical strength. When Long Mu hugged him again, Qin Xin had already activated the third level of the Desolate God Battle Body and was unable to break free from Long Mu's grasp.
Huo Sheng looked at Long Mu's delighted face and Qin Xin, who was being dragged along by Long Mu and kept whimpering, and shook his head helplessly.
In a flash, his figure vanished from the spot.
Only after noticing that Huo Sheng's aura had disappeared did Long Mu release his small hand that had been covering Qin Xin's mouth.
"Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!"
Qin Xin was panting heavily and instinctively took two more steps back.
The sheer strength of the dragon wood caused beads of sweat to appear on Qin Xin's forehead. He was about to say something when the dragon wood cut him off, saying, "Qin Xin, you're really not being fair. Didn't you see me giving you a look?"
Longmu stared at Qin Xin with some resentment, seemingly still harboring some grudge against him for his earlier attempt to refuse.
Seeing that things had come to this, Qin Xin had no choice but to accept it reluctantly, saying against his will, "I was going to agree, but who knew you were so strong."
Hearing Qin Xin's words, Long Mu felt somewhat embarrassed. He knew that he had indeed gone too far in his treatment of Qin Xin.
He quickly apologized to Qin Xin, "I was just too nervous at the time. I hope I didn't hurt you."
Seeing that Long Mu's mind was so simple, Qin Xin didn't say anything and simply led the way, heading towards the Kunmen.
Within the Kun Sect, Qin Xin's arrival sparked much discussion among the disciples. Some disciples were filled with admiration, as Qin Xin had risen through the ranks from the outer academy, and rumors about him had already spread throughout the outer academy, with many regarding him as an idol.
Of course, many disciples also harbored hatred towards Qin Xin.
Following a gaze, Qin Xin swaggered off with Long Mu toward the East Peak.
"Quickly inform Young Master Yun that Qin Xin has gone to East Peak!"
After learning the direction Qin Xin was heading, several disciples quickly left the crowd and rushed towards the East Peak.
After Qin Xin arrived at East Peak, because of his status as a peak disciple of the Kunmen Sect, he was able to go directly to the summit without any hindrance, which is a privilege possessed by peak disciples.
As for why they didn't return to the main peak but came to the East Peak, the purpose was not to provoke Yun Yi and Ji Ju, but mainly because they had promised Hua Jin to help her find the Earth Fire Thousand Flame Herb. Now that they had found it, they naturally wanted to go to the Fan Hua Pavilion to hand it over to her.
To the surprise of many, Yun Yi, who usually dared to interfere in the affairs of Fan Hua Ge and Lei Ge, did not appear at this time.
Qin Xin and Long Mu arrived at the Fan Hua Pavilion without any trouble.
"Senior Sister Mao, it's been a long time. Is Aunt Hua here?" Qin Xin asked with a smile, looking at a woman with a beauty mark on the corner of her mouth standing in front of Fan Hua Pavilion.
Mao Ruijin was surprised that Qin Xin had entered the East Peak so ostentatiously without any prior notice. She quickly stepped forward and pulled Qin Xin into the Fan Hua Pavilion.
Because if the peaks of other peaks in Kunmen were to be considered as provocative by other peaks, it would be considered as a provocation.
Qin Xin was naturally unaware of these things, and he didn't take any provocation to heart.
Mao Ruijin breathed a sigh of relief after leading Qin Xin into the Fan Hua Pavilion. He waved his fiery red robe, wiped the sweat from his forehead, and said, "My teacher is in seclusion, but he instructed that you can enter directly if you come."
After Mao Ruijin pointed to the hall behind him, Qin Xin walked straight ahead. Long Mu wanted to follow, but Mao Ruijin stopped him.
Seeing that the two were on the verge of exchanging blows, Qin Xin quickly said, "Long Mu, wait for me, I'll be right out."
After hearing what Qin Xin said, Long Mu finally gave up and watched Qin Xin walk into the Fan Hua Pavilion.
