Chapter 1093: See Chu Sheng again, direct pass

~8 min read 1,431 words

Suolin was right, no one blocked the road this time.

The journey was safe, and three months later, everyone successfully arrived at Qiankun Immortal City.

Entering the big city and looking, He Pingsheng clearly felt that this immortal city was much more crowded than before.

"So many people!" someone exclaimed in shock.

Suolin said: "This time in the Qiankun Immortal City competition, almost all sects have sent at least ten disciples to try their luck, with a total of hundreds of thousands or even millions of people pouring in instantly!"

"So it looks like this immortal city is much more crowded!"

"I'm afraid it won't be easy to find an Immortal Guest Residence later!"

He Pingsheng asked: "Elder Suolin, how much longer until the immortal city competition is held?"

Suolin said: "Soon, only one month left!"

"Let's go to the City Lord's Mansion to collect the fighting number plates first, and after getting the number plates, we will go find an Immortal Guest Residence to stay in!"

"Follow me!"

Suolin led everyone all the way towards the City Lord's Mansion.

He Pingsheng's heart was muttering: With hundreds of thousands of people participating in the competition, how should they compete?

Even if they use an elimination system, they would have to fight hundreds of thousands of matches!

Where are there so many arenas?

If there are only a dozen arenas, wouldn't it take many years to fight?

But thinking about it, this kind of competition is not the first time, the City Lord's Mansion must have its own complete system, so He Pingsheng didn't worry!

It's just, how can he get into the top ten, have the qualification to go to Star Emperor City, and at the same time minimize others focusing their attention on him?

This is a problem.

The key is, this problem is not particularly big.

The biggest problem is, if he rushes to first place in Star Emperor City later and asks the Star Emperor for a wish, then he will really be in the spotlight, and he won't be able to hide even if he wants to.

But He Pingsheng had also thought it through.

Damn it, at worst, after I get the God-Refining Method, I will disappear directly from then on and never return to this Hong Lian Immortal Valley again.

In this way, White Cloud Immortal Sect and Kunwu Mountain can neither find me nor deal with Hong Lian Immortal Valley casually.

Killing two birds with one stone!

While thinking, everyone arrived at the entrance of the City Lord's Mansion.

Before entering, He Pingsheng saw a man wearing blue Daoist robes walking over, cupping his hands and bowing to him: "Senior He!"

He Pingsheng knew this person; he was the grandson of the Deputy City Lord Tianyin, named Chu Sheng.

Last time He Pingsheng left Qiankun Immortal City, both of them were at the fifth layer of the Human Immortal stage; seeing each other again now, He Pingsheng was already at the ninth layer, while Chu Sheng was only at the sixth.

Actually, for an ordinary Human Immortal, breaking through one layer in a few hundred years is already quite good.

Being able to improve from the fifth layer to the sixth in two hundred years can also be described with the four words "gifted with talent".

It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say it exceeds ninety percent of Human Immortal stage immortals.

"Fellow Daoist Chu..." He Pingsheng quickly returned the bow and said: "I don't dare to accept, let's address each other as fellow Daoists!"

"Senior Aunt Suolin, sorry to trouble you to help me collect the number plate, disciple has some things to delay for a while!"

"Good!" Suolin's gaze circled on Chu Sheng a few times, then nodded and left.

"Fellow Daoist He... please this way, let's sit together!" Chu Sheng made an inviting gesture.

He Pingsheng happily went, and the two found a nearby teahouse to sit down. At the same time, He Pingsheng could see the situation at the entrance of the City Lord's Mansion from the teahouse, so as not to miss Suolin when she came out later.

"Is Senior Tianyin doing well?" After the two sat by the window, He Pingsheng drank a cup of tea casually and asked.

Chu Sheng's eyes turned red instantly, he rubbed his eyes and said: "My grandfather... has already fallen!"

"Ah?" He Pingsheng was a bit surprised.

So fast?

"My condolences!" He Pingsheng hesitated for a while before sighing: "Senior Tianyin was a good person and helped me a lot. Did he run out of lifespan?"

Chu Sheng nodded and shook his head: "Yes, and no!"

"My grandfather did indeed run out of lifespan!"

"However, it was not because of lifespan that he died!"

"He knew his time was running out, so he contributed his last bit of ability and capability to Star Emperor, and then he fell!"

"Until now, there's no corpse left!"

"Wuwuwuwu..."

Speaking of this, Chu Sheng couldn't help but sob in a low voice.

After crying for a while, he took out a black token, placed it on the table in front of He Pingsheng, and said: "This is the direct pass token for the Yuhuang Star sword-testing competition. My grandfather died, and Star Emperor City gave me one of these things, saying that I don't need to go through the Qiankun Immortal City screening and can directly enter the grand competition!"

"However... look at me, I'm only at the sixth layer of the Human Immortal stage now, this token is a waste in my hands!"

"Even if I go to participate in the grand competition, I guess I'll be eliminated in the first round!"

"Wang Shixiong, you are different; you are already at the ninth layer of the Human Immortal stage. My grandfather said that you are a genius unique in the history of Qiankun Immortal City!"

"You should take this token!"

He Pingsheng looked at this token, his heart moved: Good stuff, I'm just lacking this thing right now!

But he didn't pick up the token immediately and said: "Junior Brother Chu, hehe... if I am truly a genius, naturally I don't need this token; I can fight my way to the top ten of Qiankun Immortal City by relying on my own ability!"

"If I am not a genius, giving me this token, I go to Star Emperor City, and in the end, I will still be defeated by others!"

"So this token doesn't have much use for me, it's better for you to keep it yourself, Junior Brother Chu!"

It wasn't that He Pingsheng was hypocritical, but he wanted to see Chu Sheng's true thoughts.

Chu Sheng shook his head and said: "What Wang Shixiong says naturally makes sense, but you haven't reached the perfection of the twelfth layer of the Human Immortal stage yet. Even if you are a heaven's pride expert, you might suffer if you face other heaven's pride experts at the twelfth layer perfection!"

"So, giving this token to you is for the sake of being foolproof!"

"Besides, I won't hide it from you, Wang Shixiong, there are several Deputy City Lords in this Qiankun Immortal City who covet the token in my hand. It's just that my grandfather just died, and they are all people with status and face, wanting to be whores while wanting to set up a memorial arch, hoping I will give it to them voluntarily!"

"I'm worried that in the end, they will resort to inferior tactics to coerce me, so giving it to you now saves me a plot!"

He Pingsheng nodded and said: "Good... I accept Junior Brother Chu's kindness. If there is anything Junior Brother needs me, He Pingsheng, to do, just say it. As long as I can do it, I definitely won't refuse!"

Chu Sheng asked: "Can... can I follow you?"

He Pingsheng was stunned: What does that mean?

Didn't understand!

Then, naturally, He Pingsheng thought of something that made his hair stand on end, and quickly clamped his legs fiercely, saying: "Little brother, I don't have any special hobbies..."

"No!" Chu Sheng's face turned red instantly, and he said: "Wang Shixiong misunderstood, I mean, I will follow you, Wang Shixiong, from now on. If you, Wang Shixiong, spread your wings like a roc in the future, little brother can also follow and rub off some light!"

"This was also my grandfather's intention before he died!"

He Pingsheng exhaled deeply and said: "Good, good, good... as long as it's not that, it scared me to death!" ===== CHAPTER 1094 =====
