Chapter 67: Provocation

Clearly, Hou Muxian did not want to take them with him.

In Hou Muxian's eyes, He Pingsheng and the other three were just dead weight.

"Xiao Xuejian, you come!" Yu Ning found it difficult to make things hard for her eldest disciple, so she looked at her second disciple.

Xiao Xuejian's face also turned bitter: "Master, I am in the same situation; I still want to follow in the footsteps of the eldest senior brother?"

Then, Third Qiao Shijie Cheng Siyu, Fourth Wang Shixiong Yang Qingyun, and Fifth Wang Shixiong Wu Zhengyang all cupped their hands toward Yu Ning.

"Master, we disciples will follow the eldest senior brother and enter the Mystic Realm together!"

Zhao Linger, Xu Kunlun, Tian Xiaoqing, and He Pingsheng, who were behind, all had faces uglier than the others.

Good heavens, they were being looked down upon.

"Sigh..." Yu Ning let out a deep sigh and said: "Forget it, forget it, everyone has their own fate, and Master shouldn't force you all; you can do as you please!"

"Linger, Xiaoqing, Kunlun, and Ninth, you four should form a team for the time being; when you get into the Mystic Realm, don't go too deep, and don't compete or fight with others!"

"Fate, fate, only by living can you have fate; do not force it!"

"Do you remember?"

He Pingsheng and the other three cupped their hands toward Yu Ning: "Thank you for your teachings, Master!"

Then, Yu Ning took out nine white jade plaques and distributed them to the disciples one by one, saying: "These things are the credentials for entering the Alliance Mystic Realm, and even more so, the reliance for ensuring safety!"

"If you encounter danger, crush this jade plaque, and you can be teleported out of the Mystic Realm!"

"But remember, the essence of this jade plaque is a type of array!"

"Once crushed, an array will be supported, and from the support to the teleportation away, it is not completed instantly; it requires some casting time!"

"Uh... about three breaths of time!"

Hearing this, He Pingsheng's heart trembled.

Three breaths!

For escaping, three breaths of time was still too long.

If the enemy was right in front of you, it would be useless to bring this thing out.

Three breaths were enough for others to kill you ten times.

To escape safely, one must have sufficient time; this point must be guaranteed.

He Pingsheng put away the white jade plaque and kept it in mind.

Yu Ning said: "According to custom, I will not follow you to explore this Mystic Realm!"

"There are two hundred and seventy-six people from our Tai Xu Men participating in this Mystic Realm exploration, all led by Elder Xuan Yang, the Great Elder of the Internal Affairs Hall!"

"Elder Xuan Yang is a great cultivator at the ninth layer of the Golden Core stage; not only is his cultivation base extremely high, but he is also strict in his ways and is the second Golden Core of our entire Tai Xu Men!"

"You must be respectful!"

"Go!"

Yu Ning flicked her sleeves, and the disciples filed out.

First go back to pack things, bring their respective treasure bags, and then go to the teleportation square to gather.

He Pingsheng was naturally the same.

He went back first and took the things he had prepared long ago.

Actually, there weren't many things left.

His main talismans, magic treasures, etc., were all put into the storage bag.

And in this treasure bag, he put some ordinary things, as well as a few sets of moon-white clothing.

Master said that this time all disciples of Tai Xu Men must wear moon-white Daoist robes.

Besides this, He Pingsheng also placed a set of women's clothing in his treasure bag.

Not for anything else, just to be able to swap things out at a critical moment.

In case he encounters a dangerous situation, he can dress as a woman and then disguise himself; who would be able to recognize him?

Everything was done, and He Pingsheng, like everyone else, carried his treasure bag to the teleportation square on Xiuzhu Peak.

There were quite a few disciples here.

There were He Pingsheng and his senior brothers and sisters, nine in total; there were also disciples under the two senior uncles, Yude and Elder Yu Xuan.

At a glance, there were about thirty or forty people.

He Pingsheng saw someone he hated: Linglong.

He and Linglong could be said to have a deep hatred.

Not only was there the hatred for Wang Shixiong Hao Yun, but also the blood feud for his parents.

And even more, the hatred of almost being framed to death by her.

But after meeting Linglong, although He Pingsheng hated to tear the other party apart in his heart, his face was plain and calm, and he didn't deliberately show even a trace of hatred.

Linglong also saw him, smiled coldly, and said: "Yo, Junior Brother He is also at the seventh layer of Qi Refining... Hehehe... having the qualifications to participate in the trial is a good thing, I'm just afraid that this good thing will turn into a bad thing, and if you die in the Mystic Realm later, it won't be worth the loss!"

He Pingsheng didn't react.

But Xu Kunlun, Zhao Linger, and Tian Xiaoqing beside him all glared at Linglong.

Hou Muxian's eyes also narrowed, and he said: "Tian Shimei Linglong, isn't this remark too harsh?"

"Wang Shixiong Hou, I am not a harsh person!" Linglong said: "Everyone knows that I have a sharp tongue but a soft heart; I am giving good advice to remind Junior Brother He?"

"If you don't believe me, look!"

Linglong stepped out and came to He Pingsheng's side, and with lightning speed, slapped toward He Pingsheng's face.

Everyone was shocked.

He Pingsheng hurriedly dodged.

However, Linglong's move just now was a feint, and by the time He Pingsheng reacted, her jade hand had already grabbed He Pingsheng's treasure bag.

With a slight force, with a clatter, she poured out the things in He Pingsheng's treasure bag.

They were all ordinary items.

Dozens of spirit stones, a few pieces of clothing, and one or two magic tools.

What shocked everyone was that He Pingsheng actually carried a piece of women's clothing in his bag.

Linglong immediately laughed exaggeratedly: "Junior Brother He, I didn't expect you to be such a person, actually carrying women's clothing, hahahaha... do you have some disgusting hobby?"

Everyone also cast strange looks.

He Pingsheng didn't answer, nor did he have any uncomfortable expression.

He calmly squatted down, picked up the clothes and things on the ground, and put them back into his treasure bag.

Then, He Pingsheng stood up and looked at Linglong indifferently.

"Junior sister, don't mess around!" A woman walked out and pulled Linglong away.

He Pingsheng's gaze lingered on that woman for two breaths.

He had seen this woman before; when he was still a handyman, he was beaten by Zhang Laoda, and in the end, it was this woman who gave him two low-tier Golden Bone Pills.

Hearing that Daoist priest Yude say it, this senior sister seems to be called Luoyu.

"Time is running out, let's go..." Hou Muxian looked at the junior brothers and sisters behind him: "Go to the Tai Xu Hall first!"

Everyone stepped onto the teleportation array together, and then with a whoosh, they left Xiuzhu Peak.

In the time it took to open their eyes, they had arrived at the Tai Xu Hall.

Tai Xu Hall was the largest palace in the entire sect.

It is rumored to be the place where the sect's Supreme Elder, the Patriarch, cultivates.

And the Patriarch is the only Nascent Soul in Tai Xu Men.

Not to mention He Pingsheng hadn't seen him, Hou Muxian hadn't seen him either.

Even his own Master, Yu Ning, might not have seen the true face of this Patriarch. ===== CHAPTER 68 =====
