Chapter 28 Competition
On Yuxuan Peak, Jian An Ning, who had seen off his disciples, suddenly found himself facing a very serious problem.
Where will she sleep tonight?
Her cave was destroyed by heavenly thunder because Fan Qingyue broke through to the Golden Core stage. Should she blame her eldest disciple?
However, her eldest disciple didn't seem to have sorted out his family's inheritance yet, so she'd better not tease him too much for now.
Jian An Ning thought about it and decided to meet Ye Qingzhou again.
After all, he is the protagonist of the "book" and the existence destined by heaven. She is also very curious about what he is like now.
Jian An Ning made her decision and headed towards Yuxu Peak.
Yuxu Peak is still the same as before, with people coming and going, very lively.
It can be said that Yuxu Peak is the peak with the largest number of people in Qingyun Sect, because Zhao Tan’s Discipline Hall is really short of manpower.
Monks with great power always can't help but become lawless outlaws, and if you want to control these outlaws, you need stronger power and more people.
Jian An Ning went to Yuxu Peak with ease and went straight to Zhao Tan's cave.
However, as the elder of discipline, Zhao Tan was very busy and was not in the cave.
So, Jian An Ning could only search aimlessly in Yuxu Peak.
Speaking of which, she had previously opened up Ye Qingzhou's spiritual meridians, so she recognized Ye Qingzhou's spiritual power, but for some reason, she didn't feel it.
Could it be that Ye Qingzhou is not at Yuxu Peak?
As she was thinking, someone called out to her enthusiastically, "Elder Jian, how come you have time to visit Yuxu Peak? Are you looking for someone?"
He was a disciple from Yuxu Peak. He looked ordinary, but his expression was eager and he seemed a bit familiar, but not too familiar.
Jane Anning remembers her.
She is Jiang Qian, a member of the same clan as Jiang Tan. When Jiang Tan joined the Qingyun Sect, he initially relied on his family connections, namely this person, to join Zhao Tan's sect at Yuxu Peak.
Jiang Qian is now at the level of the late Jindan and half-step Yuanying, so whether in the Discipline Hall or on Yuxu Peak, he is considered a person who can speak.
"I want to find Ye Qingzhou."
Jane Anning said directly.
Fortunately, Jiang Qian seemed to recognize Ye Qingzhou and said to her, "Junior Brother Ye went down the mountain on a mission not long ago. He probably won't be back for a while."
Jane Anning's face suddenly fell.
However, Jiang Qian has been in Qingyun Sect for a long time and has obviously experienced all kinds of behaviors of Jian An Ning, so he started by talking about what he cares about.
"Jiang Tan, how is she?"
Jian An Ning raised her eyelids and looked at her. Seeing the concern in her eyes, she said, "Of course it's great. I am very good at teaching apprentices."
"That's really great," Jiang Qian said sincerely, then hesitated a little, "I'm really sorry about what happened back then."
Jian Anning tilted her head and said expressionlessly, "That has nothing to do with me."
Jiang Tan originally wanted to join Yuxu Peak, so he asked Jiang Qian to intercede for him.
However, although Jian An Ning thought that Zhao Tan was always old-fashioned and strict, he also valued talents. Jiang Tan had outstanding qualifications, so he naturally wanted to take him under his wing.
However, Jiang Tan was able to find this clan elder who was willing to intercede for her, and the Jiang family who expelled her from Yingzhou were able to find Jiang Qian's weaknesses to threaten her, and even caused a stir during the Qingyun Sect's entry selection.
After many twists and turns, Jiang Tan finally became Jian An Ning's disciple.
Jian An Ning knocked his head, wondering why he was thinking about the past for no reason.
Then she turned around and left Yuxu Peak directly.
After all, she didn't want to meet Zhao Tan at all.
Unfortunately, what she feared came true. As soon as she turned around, she bumped into Zhao Tan's hard body, which made her nose sore.
"Why are you blocking the road in the middle of the road?" Jian An Ning complained while rubbing her nose.
Zhao Tan had no interest in arguing with her, but he acted decisively. He first blocked Jian An Ning's way before she could run away, and then quickly made a seal to notify someone.
"I caught Elder Jian."
Jian Anning: Is she some rare monster?
Although she thought so, Jian An Ning didn't feel that Zhao Tan had any ill intentions, so she stayed where she was waiting, picked up the wine gourd at her waist, took a sip, and squinted her eyes as if she was sunbathing.
A moment later, a beam of light came from the sky, as fast as lightning, and Jian An Ning was unable to react for a moment.
The man acted decisively, grabbing Jian Anning's wrist and saying, "You can't run away this time."
Jian An Ning stared blankly at the person in front of her.
That person was none other than Chu Menghuai, who had always wanted to fight her to the death.
She wondered if her senses had dulled. Zhao Tan was calling Chu Menghuai over, so how could she not sense danger?
However, the current situation does not allow Jane An Ning to think too much.
So, Jian Anning smiled at Chu Menghuai and said, "I don't want to run away. Elder Chu, is there anything important that you want to talk to me about?"
Chu Menghuai smiled grimly and said, "Of course I want to have a good fight with you."
Jane Anning thought that it was unnecessary for her to ask this question.
But there was one time when, after dealing with the affairs of Dongchang, she was so exhausted that she failed to hide her aura completely, and Chu Menghuai happened to notice something.
And what a coincidence, Chu Menghuai is warlike and wants to fight her with all his strength.
Can she fight?
She can't.
But Chu Menghuai didn't give her any chance to react. He picked her up and carried her on his back, then flew straight to a deserted place in the back mountain.
Jian An Ning watched Zhao Tan follow suit and said to him repeatedly, "Master Discipline Elder, you don't care about this behavior that disrupts the Qingyun Sect's discipline?"
Zhao Tan's expression was calm as he asked Jian An Ning seriously, "Which commandment did Elder Chu violate?"
Jane Anning: ...
How could she know! She had never cared about the Qingyun Sect's rules!
Jian Anning was somewhat depressed. She let Chu Menghuai take her away and pointed at Chu Menghuai and Zhao Tan and said, "You two had already discussed this."
"So what?"
As Chu Menghuai spoke, he walked towards a relatively open place in the back mountain and put Jian An Ning down.
Spring buds are sprouting and the ice and snow are melting, but there is an extremely thick tree next to this open space, and there is not a single green bud on the tree.
"Who told you to make excuses every time? I just wanted to compete with you. I don't care whether I win or lose."
Chu Menghuai stood opposite Jian Anning and pointed at Zhao Tan, saying, "Today, I only ask Elder Zhao to be a witness. Apart from the three of us, there is no fourth person here."
She took up her stance and said to Jian Anning, "If you have any tricks you don't want to show others, you can show them. Zhao Tan and I swear to heaven not to reveal them."
Jian An Ning thought that Chu Menghuai had thought it through very carefully.
But, if you think about it, why is there no fourth person here?
She could hear the unbridled laughter of the person in the put-away bronze mirror. She stepped back, just enough to touch the ancient tree that was so thick that it took several people to hug it.
In a trance, she seemed to hear someone say in her memory over the years:
"What if one day you are in a desperate situation, with everyone in the world as your enemy, and everyone wants to kill you? What should you do then?"
How did she answer at that time?
On the other side, on Yuxuan Peak.
Lu Fei desperately wanted to become stronger and get rid of that feeling of powerlessness, but haste makes waste, and his cultivation hit a small bottleneck.
He had some questions about cultivation that he wanted to ask Jian An Ning.
So he decided to ask.
When he was only halfway there, Lu Fei felt as if he was being pulled by the energy and subconsciously looked up.
I happened to see Chu Menghuai and Zhao Tan taking Jian An Ning to the back mountain.
Lu Fei was stunned on the spot.
He could feel as if someone was pulling at his heart. The anxiety that had been relieved a little by his crazy training expanded again, like a black hole, ready to swallow him whole.
Lu Fei only saw an unwilling look on Jian An Ning's face, and without even having time to think, he followed them.
Of course he could sense that the two men's cultivation was far superior to his.
Even if it was like a mantis trying to stop a chariot, he wanted to give it a try.
Lu Fei didn't want to think that in all situations, he was powerless to do anything about the danger Jian An Ning was in.
Perhaps it was because Chu Menghuai and Zhao Tan were in the sky, while Lu Fei was walking on the ground. Lu Fei's red dress was so conspicuous in the dark night, but they had never noticed that someone was following them silently.
Also because Lu Fei was walking on the ground, he came slower than Chu Menghuai and others.
Therefore, he only saw Jian An Ning retreating, leaning against the ancient tree that had been growing for who knows how many years, muttering something in a low voice.
Then, he fainted under the tree.
Even though Chu Menghuai was prepared for Jian An Ning to escape again, he was still caught off guard by her.
Jian An Ning is clearly a cultivator in the Nascent Soul stage, how could she faint like that?
She was full of doubts in her heart and still felt that this was Jane Anning's way of escape.
Therefore, when she stepped forward, she was very aggressive and holding her life-saving magic weapon in her hand. In Lu Fei's eyes, it seemed that Chu Menghuai wanted to kill Jian An Ning.
Zhao Tan only felt a flash of cold light before his eyes, and then he heard a "clang" sound, and Chu Menghuai's life-saving magic weapon fell to the side.
"Don't touch her."
Chu Menghuai was a little surprised, wondering who could come so unnoticed that neither she nor Zhao Tan noticed?
Turning around, he saw a young man in red clothes, holding a sword in his hand, walking towards Jian An Ning step by step.
If Jian An Ning was sober at this moment, no matter if she threw a tantrum or pretended to be a fool, she would never let Lu Fei get close to the ancient tree.
However, she really fainted at this moment and was unable to stop it, and the other two people here had no idea what the ancient tree was.
So, Jian An Ning could only let Lu Fei approach, let his fingertips brush away the loose hair on her forehead, and let his body touch the ancient tree.
Then Chu Menghuai and Zhao Tan saw that Lu Fei also fainted.
Chu Menghuai & Zhao Tan: Are all of you from Yuxuan Peak so good at extorting people?
