Chapter 38 Shangyuan Bajing Palace

"Target? How?"

Li Qingcheng smiled slightly, she was truly stunningly beautiful, but when Zhang Qian thought about the fact that he was a man, he felt a little uncomfortable.

Zhang Qian's mind raced. He couldn't figure out Xiao Daoyi sitting opposite him. Although this man looked very young and seemed to show his emotions, Zhang Qian didn't know whether the other person's personality was really like that or he was just pretending.

However, since there was no peace between him and Xiao Daoyi, and Xiao Daoyi had shown signs of wanting to drive him out of Jianhu Palace, Zhang Qian would naturally seize every opportunity to retaliate, given his personality.

He didn't understand what patience and tolerance meant. He decided to keep in mind the warning of the old man Hundong - there is nothing else except me!

After thinking for a while, he decided to test it out. He looked at Xiao Daoyi and said with a smile, "I have never offended him from the beginning to the end. Now is the first time we meet. I don't know why this Senior Brother Xiao dislikes me so much? Before, at the gate of the hall, he teamed up with others and threatened to destroy my spiritual power and drive me out of the Sword Gourd Palace. It is said that he is the number one young man in Xingyunzhou, but I don't see the breadth of mind and temperament of this number one. Is this title fake? Moreover, the way he looks at my senior sister has some impure intentions. I'm afraid..."

Having said this, Zhang Qian suddenly stopped talking and just looked at Li Qingcheng with a smile.

There was a hint of worry in Li Qingque's eyes. Before coming here, she had told her junior brother to be patient in everything, but Zhang Qian didn't listen at all.

"What a slanderous person! I only respect Uncle Li, how could I have any other intentions?"

At this moment, Xiao Daoyi's face turned red, anger flashed in his eyes, and a hidden sword intent flashed. He looked at Zhang Qian with murderous intent. The terrifying thing was that Zhang Qian clearly sensed that Xiao Daoyi's sword intent was faintly condensing the surrounding void!

"Humph! Daoyi is the pride of our Jianhu Palace. He is the most powerful of the younger generation in Xingyun Province and is invincible. He is also born with a sword bone. How can I allow you to slander him? Supreme Sect Leader, please allow me to extract Zhang Qian's soul. I suspect he is a spy sent by the Huangquan Demon Sect!"

The powerful people present all scolded him.

However, Zhang Qian ignored these words and didn't care about other people's scolding. He said directly: "Why are you so angry? Senior Brother Xiao, don't mind it. I am a straightforward person. I will tell you the truth if I have any doubts. Please don't be surprised."

Having said that, there was no trace of apology in Zhang Qian's eyes.

"Hmph, the clear ones are clear and the turbid ones are turbid. Everyone knows what kind of person I am, Xiao Daoyi. I didn't mean to target you at the gate of the hall before. I was just trying to uphold the sect rules of my Jianhu Palace. You did violate the sect rules at that time. As the newly appointed outer sect deacon elder by the Supreme Master, I naturally have to uphold the dignity of the sect rules!"

Hearing what Xiao Daoyi said, Zhang Qian sneered in his heart.

"Okay, stop arguing. I have been in seclusion these years in order to transcend my soul, and I have neglected the management of the sect. Daoyi, although what you did is not wrong, you should also pay attention to your approach. How can you just scold me and hold on to one thing? Qingque's Demon Refining Island has been in decline for so many years. She has accepted a new junior brother. You should be happy. Why are you targeting me like this? If it gets out, people will laugh at my Jianhu Palace for being intolerant!"

Suddenly, a sword light flashed in Li Qingcheng's eyes, and a terrifying pressure swept across. Except for Zhang Qian, who was not affected by the pressure at all, everyone else present was bent over by the pressure.

“This time, the Nine-bend Yellow Spring Map was revealed, and the Yellow Spring Demon Sect’s leader Qin Fengdu made the Six Paths of Reincarnation appear. Although I finally broke the Nine-bend Yellow Spring Map and got the most important piece of it, I also guessed some of the Yellow Spring Demon Sect’s plans. This plan is so shocking that even I am terrified!
Now the most important piece of treasure map fragment is in my hand. Huangquan Demon Sect will definitely not be reconciled and will use all means to snatch it. By the way, Qingque, this is your Gou Li Xuan Guang Mirror, you should keep it first. Your Demon Refining Island was the main force against Huangquan Demon Sect in the past. Now Huangquan Demon Sect has risen again, and Qin Fengdu has surpassed the Yuanshen realm before me. My Jianhu Palace must be on guard. Although it is a bit against the rules for you to accept Zhang Qian as your junior brother, it is not impossible to make concessions now that we are facing a powerful enemy. Besides, this kid is also a talent and a gifted person. How about this, I will not favor one over the other. If he can pass Shangyuan Bajing Palace, I will allow him to be the deputy island master of Demon Refining Island, and the resources of the sect will also be tilted towards your Demon Refining Island. Do you agree?"

"Shangyuan Bajing Palace?"

Zhang Qian was a little confused.

"No, absolutely not. The Shangyuan Eight Scenery Palace is full of demons and illusions. Even the cultivators at the Golden Core Stage cannot escape safely. Our Jianhu Palace has been established for tens of thousands of years. The only person who can pass through the Shangyuan Eight Scenery Palace is the Sect Leader. Even Xiao Daoyi was defeated in the Sixth Palace. Zhang Qian is only at the Qi Refining Stage. Does the Sect Leader want him to die?"

Li Qingque's face changed drastically and he hurried to stop it.

"Uncle Master, what you said is wrong. Breaking into Shangyuan Bajing Palace is all about character, not cultivation. If his character is strong, maybe he can get through. Besides, Shangyuan Bajing Palace is good for tempering character, so there are many benefits to entering it."

There was an inexplicable look in Xiao Daoyi's eyes, and no one knew what he was thinking.

"Daoyi's words make sense. The arrangement made by the Sect Leader is perfect."

"You guys...!" Zhang Qian's eyes turned, and he understood something. He smiled slightly: "Senior sister, don't be nervous. The Shangyuan Bajing Palace can't stop me. I agree!"

"Very good, I will arrange for you to enter Shangyuan Bajing Palace in three days. If you can make it, I will train you as the core disciple of the sect and grant you many privileges!"

Li Qingcheng's eyes lit up, and she was a little surprised at Zhang Qian's courage. She thought that Zhang Qian did not understand the horror of Shangyuan Bajing Palace, so he agreed without considering his own ability.

"Hey, he actually agreed. Does he have a hidden card, or..."

Xiao Daoyi's mind turned, and he saw Zhang Qian pulling Li Qingque's sleeve to comfort him, a hint of viciousness immediately appeared in his eyes, but no one noticed this hint of viciousness.

"You all should leave! Daoyi should stay!"

Li Qingcheng waved her hand, and everyone turned and left the hall, looking at Zhang Qian with contempt, as if they were looking at a dead man.

"What are they looking at? Senior Sister, is Shangyuan Bajing Palace very powerful?"

"You...! Why did you agree to this? Do you know that Shangyuan Bajing Palace is the most precious treasure of my Jianhu Palace? There are eight palaces and eight scenes inside, which have kept countless demons. There are even three demon kings in the sixth, seventh, and eighth palaces. This treasure was originally used to train the character of disciples, but as time went by, after so many years, the demons kept inside became more and more powerful. Even the extraordinary geniuses can't even get through the first three palaces.

A few years ago, Xiao Daoyi broke through the first five palaces. Although he was defeated in the sixth palace, he also alarmed the sect! It caused a shock to Noda. Moreover, you shouldn't have provoked Xiao Daoyi just now. Although many people in Jianhu Palace don't like him, there are more people who support him. You provoked him in front of the head of the sect, which is considered to have offended him. Maybe he will retaliate at any time. You... Hey!"

"Demon? I see. What did I think it was? Don't worry, Senior Sister. If we fight with real swords and guns, I'm not sure. But testing one's character is too easy. Also, even if I don't provoke Xiao Daoyi, he doesn't intend to let me go. So why should I tolerate him? Just confront him directly."

"You, I don't care about you anymore!"

Li Qingque stamped his feet in anger, turned around and left, and Zhang Qian hurriedly followed.

After the two of them took off into the air and flew straight to the Demon Refining Island below the Void Island, Zhang Qian asked softly, "Senior Sister, does Xiao Daoyi like you? When he looks at you, it seems as if he wants to swallow you up. The way he looks at me is not right either, mixed with a hint of jealousy. This should be the main reason why he doesn't like me and is targeting me."

Li Qingque glared at him and said, "Nonsense! Xiao Daoyi's spiritual power is of the first level, like a sun, extremely blazing, and my spiritual power is like a bright moon, which complements his sun and moon. I heard that if we practice together, we can promote each other and comprehend the mystery of the transformation of yin and yang."

"Dual cultivation? He's dreaming! Senior sister, don't be fooled by him. He is not a good person."

"You'd better mind yourself."

Li Qingque glanced at Zhang Qian with a puzzled look, and brought him to the Demon Refining Island, which was thousands of miles in radius.

The Demon Refining Island is like a vast piece of land. It is covered with primitive ancient forests and countless beautiful fairy mountains. A layer of light sea of ​​clouds floats above the island, submerging the tallest fairy mountain in the center of the island.

brush!
Li Qingque took Zhang Qian and flew towards the highest fairy mountain in the center of the island.

In a trance, a fairy mountain a thousand feet high appeared in front of Zhang Qian. The mountain was straight up and down, like a giant pillar standing there. Looking up from the bottom, it made people feel dizzy.

The straight mountain walls are dotted with ancient cypresses and pines, and there are countless caves. A small path from the sheep farm winds up. No one knows how this path was carved. It surrounds the fairy mountain like a giant pillar and leads to the top of the mountain submerged in the sea of ​​clouds.

"I'll go up first, you come up along the mountain road, and you are not allowed to use any flying techniques!"

Throwing down a sentence, Li Qingque rode the sword rainbow into the sky, and disappeared directly into the sea of ​​clouds. Zhang Qian was a little dumbfounded. Looking at the steep path to the sheep farm, he gritted his teeth and stepped up.
