I imitate others' cultivation, and I will never reason with you.

Chapter 142: Fairy Qingping's Kindness

The simulation ends.

Ruan Xing came back to his senses in a daze, and the tea on the table in front of him was still steaming.

After she learned of Elder Wen's death, she could no longer rush over to save him. The key naturally fell into the hands of the other two monks. Moreover, no one in the Land of Absolute Spirits could use magic or spiritual power. She was at a great disadvantage against two adults based on her physical fitness alone. Therefore, she only let Jian Lai give a general description of the two men's physical appearances and prepared to take action again in the next simulation.

Then she continued to move forward in the direction she had originally chosen. There was clearly an endless plain in front of her, but the pulley under the wooden box told her that there was a gradually upward slope under her feet. After she had walked for more than three hours, it was almost dark and the Jueling insects were about to come out again.

Suddenly, her feet felt empty, as if she had fallen off a cliff. Before she could take out the parachute from the wooden box, her body was like falling into a meat grinder and was shattered in an instant.

She thought it was the residence of an immortal sect with beautiful mountains and rivers, but she didn't expect it to be a dangerous abyss full of dangers.

It seems that what she saw with her eyes was not the real plain.

After taking a sip of tea to calm himself, Ruan Xing started the real-life simulation again.

After successfully reuniting with Gu Duo and the other two, they arrived at the gap in time and space.

Gu Duo asked in a low voice: "Junior Brother Qintai, are you sure you want to enter the gap yourself?"

Ruan Xing was absent-mindedly about to say yes, but suddenly stopped.

Gu Duo's attitude seemed a bit strange... Why did he have to confirm again and again in every simulation whether Qintai He had to enter by himself?

Originally, Ruan Xing thought that he did not understand the truth about the gap in time and space, and was unhappy that Qin Taihe had taken away his credit, causing him to make a wasted trip to Nanzhou.

But he seemed to be a little too lenient towards Qin Taihe. Even the other two inner disciples who were dissatisfied with Qin Taihe's arrogant attitude were stopped by him.

Come to think of it, every time at the entrance of the teleportation array, it was Gu Duo who first recognized her as Qin Taihe, and his expression was very different.

She took back the words that were on the tip of her tongue and asked, "Senior Brother Gu is a disciple of Tianyan Peak. Before coming out this time, did you tell fortunes for yourself?"

"You can't tell me about the fortune, don't you know, Junior Brother Qintai?" Gu Duo smiled. "Although I am Master's direct disciple, I haven't learned any of Master's abilities. I can only tell good and bad luck, but I can't tell it for myself. It's really useless."

Ruan Xing nodded and said, "In that case, Senior Brother, why don't you tell me a fortune to see if I will be lucky or unlucky if I enter the space-time rift."

Gu Duo shook his head, "It's not okay if the hexagram is not related to me."

Is there any connection between Qintai He and Gu Duo?

In the more than half a month of knowing Qin Taihe, Ruan Xing was with Qin Taihe every day. Most of the time, he had a blank expression and was taciturn. When he was really annoyed by her, he would say a few sarcastic words to her. Apart from that, he had never been seen getting close to any other cultivators, nor had he ever mentioned any of his fellow disciples.

Even when she accompanied Qin Taihe to Xizhou so many times, Qin Taihe never mentioned the name Gu Duo.

Ruan Xing suddenly became interested and raised his eyebrows, "I don't know if there is any unknown story between me and my senior brother."

Gu Duo was silent for a moment, then said faintly: "I held you in my arms when you were a child."

Ruan Xing:?
A look of surprise flashed across her face, and she immediately darkened her face in the way Qin Taihe would react, "What nonsense!"

"It's just a joke, Junior Brother Qintai, don't be angry." Gu Duo smiled, "Uncle Qingping once did me a favor, so you escaped... well, after leaving Xuanbing Sect, Master sent me here."

Ruan Xing was slightly startled, "Do you know my mother?"

Fairy Qingping has only been dead for more than 20 years, but Gu Duo has been practicing for more than 200 years. It is possible that they really know each other. Although Fairy Qingping does not like to be restrained and seldom lives in the sect, judging from the fact that True Lord Qinghong is willing to raise her son, Taoist Lord Qingmeng, who is a close friend of True Lord Qinghong, may also have a good relationship with Fairy Qingping.

"I know him, a long time ago. I became Master's disciple, and it was Uncle Qingping who introduced me to him. But we didn't have much contact after she formed the Dan." Gu Duo smiled slightly, "Don't worry, Junior Brother, I came here voluntarily."

"Who asked if you volunteered?" Ruan Xing muttered, then turned his head away. "So you know this trip is very dangerous, and you are willing to go for me?" Gu Duo nodded readily. "Yes, but it depends on your own opinion. Although Senior Uncle Qingping doesn't have a good reputation in the sect, at least she is still a disciple of Xuanbing Sect. If you leave... I'm afraid both of you will be expelled from the sect and regarded as traitors. Of course, I think reputation is not as important as life. If you don't care about this false reputation, you can naturally choose not to enter the space-time gap."

Gu Duo said that reputation was not important, but he came here for a favor that few people knew about a hundred years ago.

So, for this simulation, should she stay outside and see what happens?

Maybe he could find a chance to have a private chat with the Sect Leader. In Ruan Xing's impression, he was actually quite kind and easy to talk to.

Fairy Qingping and others all have their own exclusive honorific Taoist names, not because they are so powerful, but because their master is Guixu Immortal Lord. Then Elder Wen is actually also a disciple of Guixu Immortal Lord... What is his Taoist name?

The Sect Master has never heard of him having a Taoist name. The Sect Master has such a close relationship with Elder Wen, could they be from the same sect?
Ruan Xing guessed that it was most likely not the case. Elder Wen was marginalized by the sect because his spiritual bones were damaged. Now he would be waiting to die and would not achieve anything if he lived. But the sect leader was not like that. A young Nascent Soul, if he had a master like Guixu Immortal Lord as a backer, even if he was stubborn and would rather follow his friends to Nanzhou, it would not be like this.

At least I can return to Zhongzhou and become a peak master.

"I dare not let down my brother's kindness." Ruan Xing said, "In that case, I will not enter the space-time gap."

Gu Duo was startled, "Junior Brother Qintai, you..."

"I didn't expect you to speak in this way. It's a bit unlike you." Gu Duo laughed briefly.

He seemed a little doubtful, but after all, he was not familiar with Qin Taihe and could not be sure.

The fact that she didn't have the white wolf by her side was already suspicious, and if there was any problem with her words...

Ruan Xing frowned calmly, "Oh, so Senior Brother was just being polite, but I took it seriously. There's nothing more to talk about now."

After she finished speaking, she turned around and was about to leave. Gu Duo quickly stopped her, "No, it's not that. I said the wrong thing. Don't blame me, Junior Brother."

Ruan Xing glanced at him sideways, snorted coldly, flicked his sleeves, found a big rock nearby, and sat down cross-legged.

Gu Duo touched his nose and said nothing more.

Soon, the leading monks of each of the three sects came back. After the monk from the Hanhai Sect proposed the order of entry, the three teams flew into the air on their swords in an orderly manner and flew towards the direction of the space-time gap.

From this perspective, it's quite novel to see other people entering the gap in space and time.

Ruan Xing followed the three leaders until all the other monks entered the gap, and then they withdrew their gaze.

The Nanzhou Sect Leader looked at Ruan Xing and asked in surprise, "How come you are the one left behind?"

"It's human nature to get scared when facing a battle, right?" Ruan Xing replied with a smile.

"what ever."

At this time, there were only four people left outside the gap in time and space.

No one knew how long they would stay inside after entering. In order to prevent mortals and other casual cultivators from accidentally entering, they had to continue guarding here and maintaining the illusion.

The three of them were far apart, and each took out the furniture in their storage bags, and sat or lay down with their eyes closed to rest. The main reason was that there were people with similar cultivation levels to theirs who they could not trust, so they could not meditate and practice.

The headmaster was lying on a yellow wooden recliner, which was very similar to the one in Elder Wen's small courtyard.

Ruan Xing didn't prepare these himself. It would be inappropriate to take out some things that were not in line with Qin Taihe's identity from the storage bag. So Ruan Xing thought about it, put down the box and sat on it.
