Chapter 303 An Yue's Courage

End of communication.

Shen Ping was in a particularly good mood. The sudden increase in strength was one thing, but the most important thing was that he saw the hope of meeting his wives, concubines and fellow Taoist partners. Whether it was the benefits of the virtual panel or his longing for them, they were what he cared about most.

Embarking on the path of cultivating immortality and pursuing longevity does not mean giving up many things. Worldly thoughts and desires are still deeply rooted in his blood. Perhaps he has been practicing for a short time, not even a decade, so he still has all kinds of concepts of ordinary people in his previous life.

"Maybe I'm not a qualified monk."

Shen Ping smiled. He felt that his thoughts were a little confused now. It might be because he had expectations and hopes. Unlike before, he had almost no free time to think about things. He was either in seclusion or dealing with other chores.

Whoosh.

The strong wind at the edge of the flying boat whistled like a knife, but it sounded sweet to his ears, like the most wonderful natural music in the world. He stood in front of the deck, looking at the scenery passing by below. The grass, trees, lakes, rocks, and animals that appeared from time to time seemed to have colorful colors.

"Let's go home!"

He said softly.

The flying boat covered in light quickly disappeared into the sky.

…

There were no more accidents on the way back to Greystone City. The closer they got to Greystone City, the more lively the trade route became. Lights of different colors appeared in the sky one after another. As the flying boat landed at the White Jade Square not far from the east side of the city gate, the tense spirits of An Zhiyuan and other caravan members finally relaxed.

Haven't reached the city gate yet.

Several beautiful figures came forward.

Jing Huilan's delicate face was filled with joy. Even though she was now quite prestigious in Greystone City, when she saw Shen Ping, she threw herself on him without caring about her girlish reserve.

The An sisters and Jing Yan who were following behind him all smiled.

these days.

It was not easy for them to hide in the city. Everyone knew that if anything went wrong with Shen Ping, the Zhenbao Pavilion, which had only been established for a few years, would be torn apart by various shark-like tribes, and they would not have the strength to resist.

Now that Shen Ping is back safe and sound, they can finally put their fears aside.

"Husband."

Return to the City Lord's Mansion.

The hot whiteness intertwined, and the soft and accented voice was like melted water, penetrating into every pore of the body.

The light outside the window gradually dimmed.

Jing Huilan's limbs were limp and powerless. She had already reached the Nascent Soul stage, and she had never felt so helpless before. There was no place on her body that she could move. Even her clear almond-shaped eyes were dull. After a long time, her soft body regained a little strength. She turned her head and saw a broad figure looking at her with a teasing look.

"I haven't seen you for a few months. How come you are so powerful now?"

She still spoke in a dull tone, but Shen Ping could still hear the coquettishness in her voice. He couldn't help but laugh and pinched her cheeks. "My husband has broken through to the Spiritual Transformation stage, so he is naturally even more powerful. Lan'er, you have to work hard, otherwise you won't be able to hold on for even half a day."

He is telling the truth.

The initial stage of divine and demonic body makes his constitution stronger than that of a great demon in the state of transformation. Even if he controls his muscles and strength, it is not something that ordinary cultivators can withstand.

And it was also thanks to his experience in this area, otherwise Jing Huilan would have really been injured.

"My husband has made a breakthrough?"

"Congratulations, husband!"

When Jing Huilan heard this, she felt sincerely happy.

The stronger her husband was, the more secure she felt. Although as a cultivator she was not as dependent as ordinary women, the destruction of the Jing family still made her feel insecure. It was not until she met Shen Ping that she felt light and hope in her heart.

The two of them whispered to each other for a while. Of course, Shen Ping did not dare to continue. He just said some unpleasant love words. Then Jing Huilan recovered some strength and went to the hall to eat.

The An sisters were serving on the side.

At the same time, he reported on what had happened in Greystone City and its branches during this period of time.

"So the market town in the Black Evil Valley and the branch pavilions where the various tribes gather were attacked?"

Shen Ping ate the beast meat slowly. Managing a force, even if it is small, is not an easy task, because it requires many decisions. The right and wrong of these decisions are difficult to predict, and even if you have the strength, you may not be able to make the right decisions.

Just like now, who attacked the branch pavilion? Was it simply to plunder resources and materials, or was it secretly targeting the Zhenbao Pavilion?

"Three of them were completely destroyed, and the shopkeeper and other members died. In the other two, only the resources were plundered..."

An Zhi explained in detail, "Since the business route is frequently attacked by demons, our Zhenbao Pavilion dares not send guests to investigate."

Currently, the number of guests in Zhenbao Pavilion has increased to seven gods, from various tribes. However, the demon cultivators who attacked the caravan are quite powerful, so these guests dare not act rashly. Of course, this is mainly because Shen Ping is not here and Jing Huilan's prestige is not enough.

Shen Ping was aware of this, so after dinner, he immediately summoned the guests in the pavilion.

moment.

Seven gods appeared in the hall.

He looked at the two guests from the Wood Clan and the Flower Clan, took a sip of hot tea and said, "Friend Mu Daoist, Friend Hua Daoist, our branch has been attacked, so I'd like to trouble you two to go there."

Fellow Daoist Mu and Fellow Daoist Hua's expressions changed slightly, but they did not refuse.

"The business road shouldn't be attacked. Even if there is, you two are strong enough to handle it. But just in case, I will give you a puppet. I believe it will be enough to protect yourselves."

Speaking of.

He took out the beast-shaped puppet, which he had made, and naturally had some magic formula to activate it temporarily.

Look at the puppet.

The two guests looked delighted.

But they knew how powerful this puppet was. Even the stone tiger monster was killed by it.

"Master, rest assured, we will definitely find out the forces that destroyed the branch pavilion."

Each branch pavilion is manned by a Nascent Soul cultivator, so the one who could destroy it is definitely not a lone cultivator.

Shen Ping nodded, "I'll give you three months. Also, I want to remind you that this puppet consumes a lot of energy. Without subsequent supplies, it won't last long."

The two guests were startled and said, "Yes, Master."

Then Shen Ping looked at the other five people and said, "You fellow Taoists have not been in my Zhenbao Pavilion for a long time, but my Zhenbao Pavilion treats you well. Now the business road needs to be restored, so I will trouble you to escort for a while. Once the business road is stable, you don't need to work hard."

"We are willing to do our best for the Pavilion Master."

Although the Divine Transformation cultivator is an ancestor of a region and has great power, he still has to bow his head in front of a stronger one, not to mention that the higher his cultivation level, the more he wants to go further. Currently, the only resources that can allow them to continue to improve their strength are basically Gray Stone City, and the only thing that is easily obtained is the True Treasure Pavilion.

So they have already prepared themselves mentally to serve.

Finish giving the order.

Shen Ping was not in a hurry to return to the quiet room to practice. In fact, with his current strength, relying on absorbing strange stones to practice daily growth is very slow. If there is no Ascension Palace, long-term practice will be a compulsory course. However, the Ascension Palace can be said to reach heaven in one step. How to ensure survival in the Ascension Palace is the key.

There are stone lanterns every ten steps in the courtyard.

He walked slowly in the corridor with flying eaves and lowered his head in thought. To be honest, he was lucky to survive and obtain the high-level beast spirit treasure in the Heavenly Staircase on the second floor of the underground palace. He did not fight with the second-class beast spirit geniuses from various races in the four dangerous checkpoints of the Heavenly Staircase, the arena, the metal passage, and the Black Water River Jade. Although he was confident that he could kill the second-class beast spirit genius by using the puppet magic, the consumption of the puppet magic far exceeded the high-level beast spirit treasure, and he could not use it twice in a short period of time.

Therefore, if they really fight for the beast treasure in the metal room at the back, he may not be the final winner.

This is only the second floor of the underground palace.

In the future, on the third floor of the underground palace and the heavenly palace, they will inevitably encounter stronger beast spirit geniuses. Second-class beast spirit geniuses like Yin Ting have magical weapons to protect them, so it can be imagined how powerful the means of first-class or even geniuses will be.

That’s just the beginning.

What Shen Ping was worried about was his own skills. Without his wife, concubines and Taoist companions, neither his art of talismans nor his other skills had improved for a long time. Even if he could rely on the Beast Scripture stele to slowly comprehend the Beast Scripture, if his ordinary skills remained stagnant, he would not be able to refine talisman beast diagrams or beast puppets.

"There are still two or three months left... If even the immortal elders of the human race can't help, then I can only continue to find a Taoist partner."

"Also, I don't know how to further deepen the relationship with Yin Ting!"

I was daydreaming.

A beautiful figure came towards me.

She was wearing a thin moon-white silk gauze, and her graceful curves looked hazy and beautiful under the light of the stone lamp. When she was a few steps away from Shen Ping, she stopped and bowed, "Meetings, Pavilion Master."

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

Shen Ping sniffed the faint fragrance and his eyes lifted up, soon falling on the purple lining of the silk gauze. At the edge of the fair and shiny skin, there seemed to be a shadow on the edge of the purple lining. This haziness was really captivating and could arouse the deepest thoughts.

"It's An Yue. It's so late. Aren't you practicing in the quiet room?"

Quickly retract your peripheral vision.

He said it casually, but in his heart there was still the urge to explore the material of the clothes, but he suppressed it deliberately. He knew that he was an ordinary man and could not completely get rid of distracting thoughts like the ascetic or powerful monks. But An Yue was just an ordinary monk after all.

Although he understood the other party's intention of standing in front of him at this time, he didn't want to try something new just for the sake of trying something new.

An Yue rushed into Shen Ping's arms. She hugged his broad waist tightly with her arms, and put her cheek on his warm robe. After feeling his strong heartbeat, she bit her red lips and summoned up the courage to say, "Pavilion Master, please take me!"

Shen Ping was a little confused.

He really didn't expect that An Yue, who was always shy, would make such a bold move, but he could clearly feel the throbbing deep inside. He wanted to say no but swallowed it back because he could imagine how much courage An Yue had mustered for this moment.

"I……"

It hasn't been said yet.

An Yue's suppressed voice came out, "I noticed the place where the Pavilion Master was looking at just now. Even if Yue'er is a little bit attractive, I hope that the Pavilion Master can, can..."

Her face was flushed and she clenched her teeth but couldn't say anything.

The corner of Shen Ping's mouth twitched, revealing an embarrassed expression. He had tried his best to be inconspicuous, but his subconscious action could not be concealed.

"Take me!"

An Yue's teeth were chattering.

Shen Ping sighed softly. He pushed the pretty figure away and looked at her rosy white skin. He took a deep breath and said, "Your strength is a little low. I'm afraid you can't bear it. I'm thinking about you. If you don't believe me, you can ask Huilan. She knows best."

An Yue cried out, she really didn't expect Shen Ping to reply like this, her face turned even redder, she lowered her head and stammered, "I, I know."

After saying that, he ran away.

He ran so fast that he disappeared in a flash.

Shen Ping shook his head helplessly, but he noticed the purple lining hanging on his wrist. He was stunned on the spot, and a special fragrance came into his nostrils.

…

The bedroom in the courtyard.

An Zhi looked at her blushing sister and said with a smile: "Yuer, you really left that thing behind?"

"Sister, you've been teased by me. It's so embarrassing."

An Yue's face flushed, and she suppressed her shame and asked, "Tell me, Pavilion Master, are you rejecting me, or is there something else you mean?"

Her heart was pounding, afraid to hear an answer she didn't want to hear.

An Zhi chuckled and said, "Do you want to hear the truth or a lie?"

"Of course it's true, sister, please tell me quickly."

An Yue urged.

"It's definitely not a rejection. Based on my understanding of the Pavilion Master, if he had refused, he would have said it directly instead of using such excuses. Besides, when the Pavilion Master came back that day, Sister Huilan's walking was indeed a little strange, and it was also quite short."

An Zhi said seriously.

Hearing this.

An Yue's eyes lit up, "That's good, that's good, sister, I will practice hard in the future and must break through the Nascent Soul stage as soon as possible!"

An Zhi showed a look of relief, "That's right. No matter what, the thoughts of children are only temporary, and cultivation is the foundation. However, Yuanying may not be able to bear it. Sister, you have to work hard."

An Yue nodded heavily.

…

Two months later.

Elegant room on the second floor of Zhenbao Pavilion.

The two guests from the Wood Clan and the Flower Clan who had reached the state of Divine Transformation stood respectfully and reported the attack on the branch pavilion in detail. After all, they were both Divine Transformation cultivators, and if they really put in the effort to investigate, they would naturally gain something.

"Pavilion Master."

"We have dealt with the attacking force. This is the recording crystal."

Shen Ping looked at the effect in the crystal and nodded, "You did a good job on this matter. Go to the storehouse in the pavilion later to pick up a fifth-level spiritual treasure."

"Thank you, Pavilion Master!"

The two guests showed a hint of joy.

Not long.

Shen Ping asked An Zhiyuan to come over and told him to select a few Nascent Soul cultivators to go to the branch pavilion to take charge again, and then asked: "Is the trade route from Jianyin City safe?"

An Zhiyuan replied: "We occasionally encounter attacks from demons, but we can still handle them. However, if we want to expand the scope of the branch, we may not have enough manpower at present."

Shen Ping knew that An Zhiyuan was talking about guests at the level of Huashen Lianxu. After all, Jianyin City was different from Huishi City. It would be difficult to conduct business without Lianxu in charge. However, Huashen could be recruited, but if Zhenbao Pavilion wanted to win over Lianxu, its background was far from enough.

"No rush, let's restore the previous caravan specifications first, and then we can proceed slowly."

After An Zhiyuan left.

The gentle voice of Master Lian Xuejin rang out through the brilliant crystals: "Disciple, I have already contacted the immortal senior of the human race."
