"The door is over there!"
Taixu Old Ancestor lazily lay back on his chair, pointing towards the exit of the Tai Xu Great Hall.
Yu Ning naturally understood the Old Ancestor's meaning and bowed, saying, "This Disciple takes her leave!"
After she had taken three steps, she heard Taixu Old Ancestor speak mysteriously, "If the lord is not secretive, he loses his minister; if the minister is not secretive, he loses his life!"
Yu Ning paused, then added, "This Disciple understands. Not a single word of today's matter will be leaked!"
With that, she truly turned and left.
"I'm tired today!" Taixu Old Ancestor took a deep breath and closed his eyes. "The side hall on the right is for you. You can cultivate there normally, and if you don't understand anything, you can come and ask me anytime!"
"Remember to ask a lot!"
"Anytime is fine, don't worry!"
"And one last thing!" Taixu Old Ancestor extended a withered, thin finger. "You are not allowed to leave Tai Xu Sect!"
"No matter when!"
"Did you remember?"
He Pingsheng shrank his head and said, "I remembered!"
How strange, why won't the Old Ancestor let me leave either?
"But..." He Pingsheng still wanted to struggle a bit, saying, "This Disciple has encountered a Bottleneck and can't Breakthrough, so I want to go out and look for an Opportunity!"
"Opportunity my ass!" Taixu Old Ancestor puffed out his beard and stood up from his chair, saying, "You didn't listen to a single word I just said, did you!"
He Pingsheng said, "No... This Disciple made an appointment with someone to go to Black Frontier to look for chijing ginseng!"
Taixu Old Ancestor said, "You're not allowed to go. If a person dies, what kind of Dao can he cultivate?!"
"If you dare not listen to this Old Ancestor, you'll get twenty spankings!"
He Pingsheng walked out of the Tai Xu Great Hall with a dark expression.
He wasn't restricted in his freedom.
But the degree of this freedom was very low, only within the confines of Tai Xu Sect.
After leaving the Tai Xu Divine Hall, He Pingsheng bypassed the front and walked to the right side.
There was a side hall there.
Though called a side hall, it was actually grand in scale, much larger than Yu Ning Palace.
He gently pushed and opened the door.
Inside the door were two female Disciples dressed in Outer Sect Disciple attire. Upon seeing He Pingsheng, they knelt down with a thud, saying, "Greetings, Ancestral Master..."
Uh...
He Pingsheng rubbed his forehead, "You are..."
"We are the Disciples who serve you!" One of the female Disciples said, "My name is Lü Jiao."
The other girl said, "My name is Yu Tong!"
He Pingsheng's Divine Thought swept over the two female Disciples.
Lü Jiao was at Qi Refining Stage Fifth Layer, and Yu Tong was already at Qi Refining Stage Seventh Layer.
This level of Cultivation surprised He Pingsheng.
Seventh Layer.
So high, yet still doing this kind of serving work.
"No!" He Pingsheng said, "How did you two know who I am?"
Yu Tong said, "Grand Elder told us!"
He Pingsheng was even more bewildered.
After just becoming a Disciple, the Old thing hadn't left at all. How did he inform these two girls?
Is a Nascent Soul Stage Cultivator's Divine Ability that great?
He couldn't figure it out.
He Pingsheng looked up at the vast side hall, then nodded and said, "You two can watch over things here for me. I'll go back to Xiuzhu Peak first and move over in a few days!"
"That won't do!" Lü Jiao said, "Grand Elder said you have to move in today, and you must move in!"
He Pingsheng said, "Alright, wait for me!"
Whoosh...
With a wave of his hand, he directly stepped on his Flying Sword and left!
Now that everyone knows I can fly with a Flying Sword, there's no need to hide it anymore.
...
Tai Xu Sect!
Heaven One Peak.
"Are your Divine Thought injuries better?" Jianzhu Immortal Master asked the Daoist Nun in front of her gently.
If He Pingsheng were here, he would definitely recognize that this Daoist Nun was none other than Feng Daogu.
"Much better!"
Feng Daogu's face was pale. "But to fully recover, it will take at least half a year!"
"That damned He Pingsheng, if I see him again, I will definitely chop him!"
"Hmph..." Jianzhu Immortal Master sneered, "Next time you see him, you'll have to kneel and call him Junior Martial Uncle!"
"Yes!" Feng Daogu said, "I know Grandmaster took him as a Disciple, but so what?"
"Once he goes out, I don't believe I can't..."
"Shh, shh, shh!" Jianzhu Immortal Master put her index finger to her lips and said, "Just keep those words to yourself!"
"Then, according to you, there's no need for this Master to look for that Heaven Rank Cultivation Technique anymore?"
She asked Feng Daogu.
Feng Daogu said resentfully, "That damned little thief is cunning and watertight. Master, you must not believe him!"
"I can confirm that my brother was killed by him!"
"And Linglong, it was all him!"
"This time, he even brought out an evil top-grade spirit tool, causing this Disciple's Divine Thought to be greatly damaged. If my Cultivation hadn't been much higher than his, I would have been killed by him then!"
"Hateful, so hateful..."
What He Pingsheng didn't know was that this Feng Daogu was actually Jianzhu Immortal Master's Disciple.
"This Palace understands!"
Jianzhu took a deep breath and said, "This fellow is definitely not as honest as he seems, hmph..."
"However, you handled this matter rashly. Remember to be more careful next time!"
...
Beast Controlling Sect!
Above a certain mountain peak.
Under an ancient, old pine tree.
There was a stone table and two stone seats under the pine tree.
Two people sat on the seats.
A middle-aged scholar in flowing white robes had a smile on his face.
Sitting opposite the middle-aged scholar was an old man with white hair.
And the white-haired old man called the scholar 'Senior Brother'.
"Have you investigated thoroughly?" The scholar asked the old man.
The old man shook his head and said, "No... However, in my humble opinion, these people should be looking for some treasure!"
"They are searching back and forth about a thousand li southeast of the Secret Realm exit!"
The scholar said, "How many people are there now?"
The old man said, "At first, there were only a few Elders from Tai Xu Sect. I thought they were up to something!"
"Now, more and more Sects from this vicinity have joined!"
"Now, there are already more than a dozen Golden Cores!"
"They are all searching for something there!"
"Hmm!" The scholar said, "These past two days, I've observed that the Luck of their Tai Xu Sect seems to have increased a bit!"
"What?" The old man's body trembled. "How is that possible? Isn't that Old thing about to die? How could his Luck not decrease but instead increase?"
"Is there something wrong with your 【Gazing at Qi】?"
"No!" The scholar shook his head and said, "Sect Luck is not tied to one person. Too many things can affect Sect Luck!"
"Don't worry, it's nothing to be afraid of!"
"That Old thing will last at most another hundred years!"
"Within a hundred years, the Luck of this Tai Xu Sect will definitely wither!"
"At that time, we won't need to be so cautious in our probing!"
The middle-aged scholar's eyes shot out two sharp rays of light, looking towards Tai Xu Sect.
