Chapter 362 The Lion Opens His Mouth
At this time, Jun Yi said: "Brother Jiang is really a generous person. Since you are so generous, I will not hide anything."
"Tell the truth to Brother Jiang Ming."
"In fact, a relic will be opened in the Hu Hu Mountains in a week, because each major force will only allow one leading elder to enter. To open the entrance, three cultivators above the Fusion Stage are required. Not to mention the White Flame Sect, the Evil Spirit Hall and the Wind Spirit Hall are also led by elders in the Fusion Stage. The key lies in the fact that the other two sects are competing with my Xu Qian Sect for the elder leading the team in the Fusion Stage."
"The other two sects have recently found a strong man in the Fusion Stage to lead the team, but my Xuqian Sect only has three people in the Fusion Stage. So at this time, we urgently need a strong man in the Fusion Stage to help us. Maybe we can be on par with the other two sects in this relic."
Having said that, Jun Yi has revealed all his cards.
Hearing Jun Yi’s direct reveal, the First Elder and the Second Elder frowned.
If they reveal all their cards now, in case Jiang Ming asks for too much, their benefits will probably be reduced again.
It’s not like they haven’t seen powerful independent cultivators before.
Generally speaking, powerful independent cultivators are hungrier than those strong ones in the sects, and they attach great importance to cultivation resources. This clearly shows their purpose, and they may not be able to gain much at that time.
This time, the leader took too much risks!
However, Jiang Ming was not very excited when he heard the news. He just nodded slightly and seemed to be thinking about something.
"If that's the case, there should be a lot of people fighting for the ruins this time, and we can see quite a few forces." Jiang Ming said to himself.
"That's right, at least all the major forces in our Suowu Empire should come to participate." Jun Yi replied.
"However, although letting me face other forces alone is exactly what I want, it will undoubtedly make some unnecessary enemies. For a casual cultivator like me, it is still a bit difficult to deal with." Jiang Ming shook his head and said.
Hearing this, the three people's faces changed.
It's coming! Is he going to ask for too much? At this time, Jiang Ming said in a deep voice: "I haven't eaten for a long time. I'm a little hungry. How about you treat me to a good meal?"
After these words were spoken, the three of them were speechless.
Eat...eat? They have been practicing for many years. Since they started to build their foundation, they have only taken one Bigu Pill a day. They don't have much desire for worldly food, not to mention that they have reached the Fusion Stage and have not tasted grains for a thousand years.
Why is Jiang Ming thinking about eating?
At this time, Jiang Ming added: "By the way, it would be best if we could drink. Do you know where we can go?"
“…”
The four of them were collectively confused.
What does it mean?
…
So Jiang Ming took the four of them to the best restaurant in the city and had some drinks.
Jun Yi and others, who seldom go out to eat, felt a little restrained when they arrived at such a place.
After all, practitioners are different from ordinary people, and they still have to have the proper temperament and image. But Jiang Ming is different. He is just like an ordinary person, eating meat and drinking wine with big mouthfuls, without any demeanor of a practitioner.
They were also very puzzled about this.
Maybe... this is the nature of casual cultivators?
After all, independent cultivators do often have to mingle in the secular world, and rarely deal with immortal gates and sects, so eating and drinking are just commonplace for them?
So, they followed Jiang Ming's personality and drank a few more glasses with him.
Over time, they actually discovered that drinking and eating meat seemed to give them a different feeling.
After all, they are the ones who pay in the end.
“When did worldly things become so delicious?” Jun Yi asked his soul.
…
After returning to Xuqian Gate.
Jun Yi asked Elder Xun to arrange accommodation for Jiang Ming, and also asked the two elders to go to Yanxu Hall immediately.
At this time, Jun Yi circulated his Qi to expel the alcohol in his body and asked, "Two junior brothers, what do you think of Jiang Ming?"
The second elder spoke first: "I don't think he has any other intentions, but as a casual cultivator, I am a little surprised that he doesn't covet the treasures in the ruins."
At this time, the Great Elder said: "Maybe he just wants to distract us. When the time comes, it will be the three of us who need to maintain the entrance. The elder leading the team can only let him go. Whatever benefits he gets inside, he can enjoy it all by himself."
The second elder nodded slightly.
That's true.
Many inheritances and blessed lands that could not be taken out could only be enjoyed by those who entered. As the face of Xuqianmen, they could only maintain the entrance, and those benefits could only be handed over.
“There’s no need to be so pessimistic. The inheritance is not so easy to obtain. And if there is a blessed land, our disciples can also enjoy it. It’s not a loss.” Jun Yi said.
"Then, senior brother, what do you think?" the great elder asked back.
"We can only trust him, what else can we do?" Jun Yi frowned and said, "Now it's not something we can do, we can only pin our hopes on Jiang Ming. Even if we have less resources at that time, there is nothing we can do."
After hearing this, the two of them nodded silently.
As long as there is no problem with Jiang Ming, we can basically rest assured that he can lead the team to the ruins of Huhu Mountains.
However, they still had a doubt.
That is, Jiang Ming did not show his strength in front of them. Even with Elder Xun's verbal affirmation, he was still unsure because he had not seen it with his own eyes.
In addition, the way Jiang Ming ate today made him look just like a charlatan who was cheating people for food and drinks.
"Let's observe it for a few days." Having said that, Jun Yi could only say this.
The two elders nodded in response.
In the following seven days, the three of them would secretly observe Jiang Ming's movements from time to time.
Jiang Ming is a relatively honest man. He seldom goes out every day and spends most of his time in his yard basking in the sun, occasionally running to the canteen outside the gate to beg for food.
Because there is only a canteen in the outer gate, the place Jiang Ming goes to most often in Xuqian Gate is the outer gate canteen.
In this regard, Jun Yi and the other two felt that Jiang Ming was increasingly unreliable.
How did a casual cultivator, who didn't practice every day and just ate and drank, reach the fusion stage?
This guy is probably just a charlatan!
At this time, even the three of them were unsure.
at the same time.
During these seven days, Jiang Ming was very clear that Jun Yi and others were observing his actions, but there was no need for him to hide anything. He was just staying here anyway. If you trust him, then he can help. If you don't trust him, he can just go and stroll around the ruins by himself.
Anyway, for him, he won't lose anything.
On the contrary, Jiang Ming thought the cafeteria outside the gate was quite good, and he even met Zhong Qiang there once.
Perhaps it was because of Jiang Ming that Zhong Qiang's status in the outer sect rose. After seeing Jiang Ming, Zhong Qiang was even more respectful and insisted on inviting Jiang Ming to have a meal. Naturally, Jiang Ming was happy to accept this.
I have to say that this guy named Zhong is really quite sensible.
