Chapter 1097: Comparing two evils

Fairy Linglong's eyes also rekindled hope: "He Pingsheng, this is really true!"

"Let's put it this way, I'll push it back for you!"

"Assume you really got first place in the final sword-testing competition and got Star Emperor's wish!"

"Then you are already number one on Yuhuang Star, with this kind of strength, why do you still need this direct pass quota now? Fighting your way into the top ten in Qiankun Immortal City is not easy?"

"Conversely, if you can't enter the Yuhuang Star sword-testing competition without this direct pass quota, then even if you have the direct pass, what's the use? You can't even enter the top ten of Qiankun Immortal City, do you think you can reach number one on Yuhuang Star?"

"So, no matter what, for you, trading this quota is the most cost-effective!"

Everyone looked at He Pingsheng!

Because this logic of Fairy Linglong was too logical, simply impeccable.

He Pingsheng smiled and said: "Thank you for the seniors' concern, but let's take it one step at a time, who knows what will happen later?"

"How about this!"

"I still want to try my ability. City Lord also said before, let me pass the basic four passes first. If I pass the basic four passes, then I will go directly!"

"If I don't pass the basic four passes, then, the two seniors come find me to trade, how about it?"

Linglong looked at Wu Zhanyun.

Wu Zhanyun also looked at Linglong.

Both finally nodded.

After all, they couldn't blatantly force He Pingsheng, right?

"Fine, let's do this!" Wu Zhanyun stood up, waved his big sleeve: "Wait until you fail the basic four passes later, this old man will come to find you!"

The four people left slowly.

In the main hall, only He Pingsheng and Chu Sheng remained.

"Senior Brother He, I think if it doesn't work, you should just give them the quota!" Chu Sheng said with a bitter expression: "My grandfather said before, this Senior Linglong is still considered standard, but that Wu Zhanyun is not a good person!"

"This person is narrow-minded, suspicious, and his methods are quite ruthless!"

"If you offend him, I'm afraid there will be trouble!"

He Pingsheng frowned and asked: "What is this guy's cultivation level?"

"Profound Immortal!" Chu Sheng said: "To be able to become a City Lord or Deputy City Lord, the minimum must be the Profound Immortal cultivation level. I heard my grandfather say before that Elder Wu Zhanyun seems to be at the second layer of the Profound Immortal early stage!"

"And it seems he has also mastered the ultimate wisdom!"

He Pingsheng nodded.

Second layer of Profound Immortal, indeed not to be provoked.

He Pingsheng's brows frowned: What to do?

First: Offend Wu Zhanyun, don't trade with him, then through the direct pass quota, he can avoid exposing his strength, obtain temporary concealment, so as not to attract trouble from Kunwu Mountain and Bai Yun Immortal Sect.

Second: Give this direct pass token to Wu Zhanyun, then rely on his own strength to sweep all the way and fight his way into the top ten of Qiankun Immortal City. After becoming famous, Kunwu Mountain and Bai Yun Immortal Sect will definitely treat him as a major enemy, and secret attacks will be light.

Two paths, choose!

Phew...

He Pingsheng exhaled deeply and made a decision at the same time. He chose one: Offend Wu Zhanyun!

Why choose this?

Very simple logic, even if he trades with Wu Zhanyun now and then fights his way to the top ten of Qiankun Immortal City, what will Bai Yun Immortal Sect and Kunwu Mountain think then?

They will definitely keep sending people to assassinate, intercept, etc.

Even if he arrives at Star Emperor City, it might not be safe.

This is just one aspect!

More importantly, Wu Zhanyun is not stupid either.

In Wu Zhanyun's eyes, no matter in what way they trade, He Pingsheng is definitely reluctant, and now, He Pingsheng has shown the powerful potential to sweep everything, what will Wu Zhanyun think?

He will definitely feel that once He Pingsheng grows up, it will be his end.

Then will he not take action to eliminate the hidden danger in advance?

So, offending Wu Zhanyun will only attract the revenge of Wu Zhanyun alone; while if he trades with Wu Zhanyun, then the triple interception from Wu Zhanyun, Bai Yun Immortal Sect, and Kunwu Mountain will be waiting for He Pingsheng.

Which is heavier and which is lighter?

As for if he refuses Wu Zhanyun, hides his strength, and then gets first place in Star Emperor City later, will it attract the pursuit of Kunwu Mountain and Bai Yun Immortal Sect?

That definitely won't happen.

After all, the disciples of Bai Yun Immortal Sect and Kunwu Mountain probably don't have the qualification to participate in the competition in Star Emperor City, and the two sects definitely won't know He Pingsheng's battle results in Star Emperor City for the first time.

By the time they get the battle results, I will have already hidden and run away, and from then on, I will never return to Hong Lian Immortal Valley.

Where will you find me?

If they can't find me, the two sects probably won't dare to easily attack Hong Lian Immortal Valley, right?

After all, who doesn't worry about the revenge of a peerless genius after they grow up?

So, rather than suffering suppression from both sides, it's better to bear one side.

Firmly do not compromise!

"Junior Brother Chu, I will seclude myself for a period of time, it's very urgent!" He Pingsheng sent Chu Sheng away and continued to comprehend the Heavenly Extreme Life-Transforming Art.

Once this thing is practiced, he can exchange lifespan for cultivation level.

Briefly raise the cultivation level by one major rank, and then fight across ranks, although he still can't beat the Profound Immortal stage, preparing early is not wrong, right!

The key is, He Pingsheng feels that he is already close to practicing it successfully.

Not far from the City Lord's Mansion, in another huge mansion.

In the black main hall, Wu Xiu cupped his hands: "Grandfather... it has been found out!"

"Good!" The tall Wu Zhanyun waved his sleeve and said: "Tell me!"

"Yes!" Wu Xiu said: "This guy He Pingsheng comes from a sect called Hong Lian Immortal Valley in a corner below Qiankun Immortal City!"

"The strength of this sect is very poor, with only one Ascension Pool!"

"And, although this He Pingsheng got the qualification for the Qiankun Immortal City competition, he was only ranked tenth, the last place, in their internal sect competition."

"Tenth place, last place?" Wu Zhanyun's brows frowned slightly, then relaxed, and he said with a smile: "Too good, in this way, he is eighty percent likely not to pass the basic four passes!"

Just kidding!

In Qiankun Immortal City, the basic four passes brush off ninety-nine percent of people, only taking about the top one percent.

Since He Pingsheng is at the bottom in Hong Lian Immortal Valley, he is also at the bottom in the entire Qiankun Immortal City.

Even if he is not at the bottom, it is absolutely impossible for him to enter the top one percent.

Then... when he fails the basic four passes later, this direct pass quota will be this old man's, hehehehe...

A proud smile appeared on Wu Zhanyun's face. He waved his sleeve while sitting down and said: "Xiu'er, you still have to keep an eye on He Pingsheng's basic four passes competition, don't let anything go wrong!"

"The so-called 'don't fear ten thousand, just fear the one in ten thousand'!"

"Yes!" Wu Xiu cupped his hands and said: "I know, Grandfather, but... what should we use to trade for his direct pass plate later?"

Wu Xiu asked Wu Zhanyun.

Wu Zhanyun sneered: "A mere Human Immortal stage disciple, coming from an unknown small sect, give him something and he can be sent away."

"Why, do you really want this old man to trade with him normally?"

"It's just that Linglong here is a bit troublesome, still have to think of a way to make her give up voluntarily!" ===== CHAPTER 1098 =====
