Chapter 142
"Disciple Little Chongyang, pays respects to Master!"
Master Chongyang bowed respectfully in front.
He Pingsheng had a very strange feeling.
This is my Grandmaster, and now that he's run to the entrance of the Tai Xu Divine Hall, he's become 'Little Chongyang'?
"Come in, you two are the only ones left!"
An extremely aged voice came from the main hall.
The golden light membrane at the entrance of the Tai Xu Divine Hall opened a passage.
Then, several more arrays inside opened one after another.
He Pingsheng followed True Person Chongyang slowly into the Tai Xu Main Hall. For some reason, upon arriving in this Tai Xu Main Hall, he was actually not as uneasy anymore.
Entering the main hall, He Pingsheng felt the light suddenly dim.
The light here was much dimmer than outside.
The main hall was huge and swept spotlessly clean.
The pitch-black floor was like the surface of water, almost able to reflect the shadows of items on the ground.
A faint scent of sandalwood wafted over, making one feel very comfortable.
Whew...
Although he wasn't as uneasy, He Pingsheng still didn't dare to breathe loudly.
Before coming, Master had also instructed him not to look around casually.
As for why?
He Pingsheng didn't ask, and Yu Ning didn't say.
"Why are you keeping your head down?" The aged voice sounded again: "Are there flowers on the ground?"
He Pingsheng was startled: Is he asking me?
Definitely not!
He must be asking Master Chongyang.
After all, I'm just a small fry.
As it turned out, the voice sounded again: "Hey... I'm talking to you, He kid!"
He Pingsheng's body shook, and he hurriedly raised his head to look over.
Entering his eyes was a golden, glittering grandmaster chair.
The grandmaster chair was placed on three steps in the middle of the main hall, and sitting in that grandmaster chair was a tall but extremely thin old man.
The old man's hair was white, his beard was white, and his eyebrows were white too.
Moreover, his eyebrows drooped down to the middle of his face on both sides.
The wrinkles on the old man's face were like the bark of an old tree, layered upon layered, looking full of vicissitudes at a glance.
However, the pair of eyes on his face were sharp and brilliant, flashing with a keen, vicious light, like a knife, capable of piercing through a person's heart.
"Are you very afraid?" The old man asked He Pingsheng.
He Pingsheng hadn't had time to look around yet, so he hurriedly bowed and said: "Reporting to the Supreme Elder, the disciple is not afraid!"
He guessed that this old guy was most likely the Supreme Elder.
If he wasn't the Supreme Elder, who would dare to speak like that?
"If you're not afraid, why do you keep looking at the ground?" Tai Xu asked.
He Pingsheng took a deep breath and said: "When I came, my Master instructed me that after arriving at the Tai Xu Divine Hall, I am not allowed to look around and must be honest!"
Master!
Sorry, I'm using you to take the blame for me first.
"Hey..." Tai Xu Biyun Laozu was so angry he exhaled a breath, blowing his beard, and said: "Stuck in the past, your Master is also a blockhead. Wait... which one is your Master again?"
Before He Pingsheng could speak, Chongyang hurriedly took over the conversation and said: "Master, it's my third disciple who hasn't amounted to much, Yu Ning!"
"Oh!" Tai Xu Biyun Laozu said: "It's that girl... I saw her once over a hundred years ago, she was still a baby then, and now she's taken on a disciple too?"
"Yes!" Biyun Laozu Chongyang answered cautiously.
Tai Xu Biyun Laozu's gaze fell on He Pingsheng again, and he said: "Forget it, I, the Biyun Laozu, decree today that you can look around as you please!"
"No need to be constrained!"
"Many thanks, Biyun Laozu!" He Pingsheng bowed and didn't stand on ceremony anymore. He looked around, and he was shocked by what he saw.
It turns out there were so many people hiding in this room.
Besides Tai Xu Biyun Laozu, there was the Golden Core cultivator Biyun Laozu Elder Xuan Yang from the Internal Affairs Hall, Elder Hong from the Law Enforcement Hall, and two others He Pingsheng hadn't seen before.
But one could make a guess.
Since Grandmaster True Person Chongyang, Biyun Laozu Elder Xuan Yang, and Elder Hong were all Golden Core stage cultivators, the other two should also be great Golden Cores.
"Disciple He Pingsheng, pays respects to several Grand-Uncles, Grand-Aunts..." He Pingsheng didn't know what to call them, so he just bowed to them, as long as he didn't mess up the seniority.
"Hehehehe..."
Everyone laughed.
He Pingsheng finally understood what Tai Xu Biyun Laozu meant by "you two are the only ones left" before entering the door.
So everyone else had already arrived.
"Are you done looking?" The Tai Xu Biyun Laozu above spoke.
He Pingsheng hurriedly withdrew his gaze and said respectfully: "Reporting to the Supreme Elder, I am done looking!"
"Good that you're done looking!"
Tai Xu Biyun Laozu nodded and said: "He Pingsheng, I have long heard of your great name!"
"I was once very curious, what kind of genius are you to make the Qiao family of Tianfu Mountain go to such lengths to take you as a son-in-law!"
"Later, I let you go compete with that Void Linggen of the Bingji Sect, hoping you wouldn't lose too ugly!"
"But you, you actually knocked them unconscious!"
"Hehehe..."
"You kid are a bit interesting!"
He Pingsheng didn't know how to respond to Tai Xu Biyun Laozu's comments, so he just said: "Many thanks for your reward, Biyun Laozu!"
"Hmm!" Tai Xu Biyun Laozu said: "A mere two Foundation Establishment Pills are nothing!"
"This time, regarding the Hou family and the Beast Taming Sect, you have performed another great service!"
"Today, I have already performed the Soul Searching Technique on that girl. What you said is not wrong; it is indeed them plotting against us!"
He Pingsheng's heart skipped a beat.
Soul Searching Technique.
This is a notorious technique in the Cultivation World, yet the Biyun Laozu uses it so calmly?
Hiss, hiss, hiss, hiss...
Scalp tingling.
"It's just that I'm curious, how did you kill that Foundation Establishment stage cultivator?" Tai Xu Biyun Laozu looked at He Pingsheng, seemingly curious, with a kind face.
But He Pingsheng felt an inexplicable chill down his spine.
If he said one word wrong, the Biyun Laozu would probably be able to tell.
Whew...
He Pingsheng took a deep breath and said: "Disciple... disciple just got lucky!"
"Speak!" Tai Xu said: "How lucky?"
The other Golden Cores also looked at He Pingsheng, looking on with great interest.
They were curious too.
"Yes!" He Pingsheng said: "Disciple... disciple actually couldn't kill him!"
"At that time, I had two talismans on me!"
"One defensive second-tier talisman, one offensive second-tier talisman!"
"That Daoist Changping couldn't break my defensive talisman light membrane for a while, and was injured by my spell and poisoned, so he thought about sword-flying away!"
"I followed closely behind!"
"Then I used a Falling Rock Talisman and threw it over. Who knew it would be such a coincidence that the Falling Rock Talisman knocked this Daoist Changping off his flying sword, and he fell to the ground and died!"
"That's it!"
This explanation was very simple and had no loopholes.
Tai Xu nodded and said: "Wasn't there another Foundation Establishment stage disciple at that time?"
"Where did that Qin Mingyue go later?"
He Pingsheng said: "That Qin Mingyue went to chase my Senior Sister Cheng Siyu, and I didn't see her after that!"
Simplify complex scenes.
This will avoid quite a few flaws.
If I just say I don't know, you old man won't be able to find my flaws, right?
