Chapter 116 Return

High in the sky above the majestic mountains.

The sword-shaped flying boat slowly landed on the vast grassland.

Wushan, a man with sword-like eyebrows and wearing a green pine robe, stood with his hands behind his back.

He looked at the scenery with a calm expression.

"Lord Wushan."

"The assessment time for this special guest official is quite fast."

"I don't know if the candidate who came from the small place of Beiyan Swamp in the Fire Toad Cave Division of South Yanzhou has passed the qualification test!"

"It's not that easy to become a special guest official."

"It's good to see the world."

The two female foundation-building cultivators were discussing with each other.

Wu Shan smiled faintly. He still remembered how cautious and respectful the examiner was. Unfortunately, he was just a Qi training cultivator after all. It had been many years since a special guest official appeared in a place like Beiyan Swamp.

“Here I come.”

The words fell.

The vast grassland ripples like water waves.

Soon, three figures appeared out of thin air.

One of them was the cultivator they had brought over from the State of Wei, who had already successfully established his foundation.

However, the smile disappeared from Wushan's face.

He stared at the female cultivator who was accompanying Shen Ping.

There was a storm in my heart.

A red mountainfire emblem is engraved on the left shoulder of the female cultivator's light armor.

Represents a position of power.

Mountain Fire Temple.

There are three different levels of forces in the Zhenbao Tower: palaces, pavilions, and boats.

Although each level has strengths and weaknesses.

But those that can be called temples are all top-notch.

"How is that possible!"

"Even if you pass the special guest official qualification and have a protector by your side, you can only be a cabinet-level official at best!"

Wushan was confused.

It’s good that he is a Nascent Soul cultivator.

But it only belongs to the level of boat-level power and status.

boom.

At this time.

The female cultivator in light armor had already brought Shen Ping to the flying boat.

"I am Wushan."

"Meet Mr. Shen!"

Wushan quickly came to his senses and saluted.

Under normal circumstances, as a Nascent Soul cultivator, he only needs to be polite when meeting core members and does not need to perform any rituals. However, the core of a palace-level protector should not be underestimated.

"Quickly arrange a quiet room."

"Do not disturb."

The female cultivator in light armor said calmly.

In his words, he did not take Wu Shan, the Nascent Soul cultivator, seriously at all.

But Wushan didn't think it was wrong at all.

Although if a real fight breaks out, the Jindan Zhenren in front of him may not be his opponent, but to be able to become a palace-level member, his methods are unimaginable.

Maybe he has a treasure bestowed by a Nascent Soul or even a Spirit Transformation powerful being on him.

Everything is possible in Zhenbaolou.

"Should we arrange two rooms or just one?"

Wushan asked.

"One."

"Yes!" He personally brought Shen Ping and the female cultivator in light armor to the quiet room inside the flying boat.

Two female foundation-building cultivators stood respectfully not far away.

Holding my breath.

Until Wushan came out of the attic.

They breathed a sigh of relief.

"Lord Wushan."

"Special guest?!"

The two female foundation-building cultivators were in disbelief.

Wu Shan ignored them, waved his hand to start the flying boat, then walked to the railing and looked down at the towering mountains that were getting farther and farther away and smaller. He was silent for a long time and finally sighed, "Special guest... I missed it after all!"

Some opportunities.

It was once right in front of us but difficult to grasp.

Once missed.

There will always be regrets.

…

In a quiet room.

Shen Ping sat cross-legged on the cushion very uncomfortably.

He didn't even dare to glance out of the corner of his eye.

The temperament of this protector is so cool.

I didn't look at his appearance carefully.

But that slender outline covered with light armor.

It still lingers in his mind.

"Fellow Daoist Shen, don't be nervous."

"After you choose your protector in the True Treasure Tower, I will not leave until you grow to the False Infant stage. This is a very long time."

"And in the meantime, no matter what you do, I will not ask."

"I will only protect you if you are in danger."

The female cultivator in light armor walked over with crisp footsteps.

Sitting cross-legged in front of Shen Ping.

He spoke again, "In the next fifteen days, you'd better get familiar with me as soon as possible. When we arrive in Wei, I will not communicate easily."

Shen Ping's eyes couldn't help but fall on the semicircular undulating armor. He seemed to see a network of white veins intertwined, entangled with each other and spreading to the armor. For some reason, at this moment he thought of Shui Li.

As the sight falls.

He noticed that this light armor was really shiny, especially where the lines converged, it was so tight that it didn't look hard at all.

"What on earth is this material made of... I wonder if it will leave marks."

This thought came to my mind.

Shen Ping's discomfort immediately disappeared.

He raised his eyes and smiled calmly, "What should I call you, Senior?"

"Daoist name: Fire Feather!"

"You can call me Master Huoyu from now on. When you break through to the Golden Core stage, you can call me Pei Huoyu."

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

The female cultivator in light armor did not care about Shen Ping's wanton gaze just now.

Her light armor was eye-catching.

"Senior Huoyu."

"From now on, my life and death will be in the hands of Senior!"

Shen Ping stood up and bowed respectfully.

Pei Huoyu also stood up and said with a smile, "Yes, Fellow Daoist Shen is much calmer than I expected. This time you become a core member of the Zhenbao Tower, your status and position are destined to be different from before. In addition to the visible dangers, you will face invisible dangers."

“The core is just the beginning.”

"You are only at the second level of foundation building now, and you still have a long way to go."

"As your protector, I hope you can go further, rather than stop here on the path of cultivation."

Shen Ping could hear the sincerity in the words of Master Huoyu.

He said respectfully again, "Thank you for your reminder, senior. I will keep it in mind."

The following days.

Although the two did not communicate much in the quiet room, they became more familiar with each other.

At least Shen Ping no longer only remembers Pei Huoyu's curvy outline.

Buzz~ A few days later.

The flying boat shook violently for the first time.

Pei Huoyu looked at Shen Ping and said, "Nanyan Continent is a relatively remote cultivation continent among the five continents and four seas. It takes three long-distance teleportations from the place of assessment to the Beiyan Swamp where you are. Each teleportation consumes a huge amount of energy."

"Only the Jindan elders at each headquarters can ride this flying boat."

"In addition, those who are undergoing the assessment for the special guest official and the promotion to the first-class guest official will be picked up by monks who are specifically responsible for the transportation by flying boats."

"You are a core member. If you want to ride in the future, you can apply directly."

Shen Ping could hear a hint of envy from the Fire Feather Master, and couldn't help but say, "Senior Pei, with your ability, you should be able to ride it, too."

Pei Huoyu said calmly, "Okay, but it takes time and time to wait for someone."

Two more violent jolts and shakes.

The sword-shaped flying boat finally arrived at the border of Beiyan Swamp.

At the same time.

Zhenbao Tower was the headquarters of the Wei State's Qingyang City.

Elder Jindan received the message.

"Special guest Shen Ping is about to return."

"Welcome quickly."

Elder Jindan was shocked.

He listened to the message over and over again until he was sure that he had not heard it wrong, and unimaginable surprise welled up in his eyes.

Passed...

Special guest official.

After so many years in the Wei Kingdom area of ​​the Twelve Kingdoms, a special guest official was finally born! And as the responsible elder of the general station.

Every time I apply for some resources, I have to kowtow.

There are seven major areas in the cave.

After all the resources in other regions have been divided, the remaining resources will go to the Beiyan Swamp Region, and finally to the Twelve Kingdoms.

Now.

Finally, the clouds have cleared and the moon is visible!

A special guest official was born.

In the future, the continent's resources will surely be tilted towards this side.

In addition, the number of first-class guest officials going to the headquarters will also increase.

Think about this.

Elder Jindan smiled.

While laughing, messages were issued one after another.

"Zhenbaolou is the main station."

"Whether it's the deacons, auctioneers, first-, second-, or third-class guests...all members, please hurry to the backyard and wait!"

A few hours later.

All members of the Zhenbao Building backyard are present.

"Senior Xia."

"I wonder what the elder is calling about?"

A guest official asked doubtfully.

It is rare for the Zhenbao Tower to receive notifications from the Jindan elders. This kind of situation is usually related to the Yuanying. It happened more frequently during the incidents in the Yunshan Swamp a few times ago.

Deacon Xia shook his head slightly.

But in his mind he thought of Shen Ping who was going to take the special guest assessment.

Even though he knew it would be extremely difficult to pass.

But there is always a trace of unrealistic expectations.

"It's been less than half a year. If it's really Guest Shen, then..."

…
