City Primordial Witch King

Chapter 503 The pressure cooker exploded

When it came to what happened after Dabi, Wei Xiao couldn't help but restrain his smile, and changed the topic calmly. After all, what happened after Dabi was too secretive to tell any outsiders.

"At that time, there was an urgent matter at home, and my parents kept urging me to go back quickly. If the competition was not too important, I wouldn't even want to participate in it." He said, pretending to be heartbroken.

"Oh? And this?" Ding Yi stared at him with surprise on his face, and then asked curiously: "What is it that makes Junior Brother Wei so impatient that he is not even going to participate in the Xiumeng Grand Competition?" ?”

"Nothing!" Wei Xiao shook his head embarrassingly, and said with a smile: "The pressure cooker at home just exploded..."

"Ah?" Everyone present was stunned for a moment, and opened their mouths neatly, almost enough to fit an ostrich egg.

"Uh...hahaha!" Seeing this funny scene, Wei Xiao was immediately amused, and quickly explained: "I'm sorry, it's just a joke, everyone, please don't take it seriously!"

"Uh...hehe, I didn't expect Brother Wei to be so humorous." Ding Yi's face turned cold for a moment, but he soon recovered his smile, and asked unwillingly: "But I'm really curious, what is it? "

"Well, the truth is: the alchemy furnace at home exploded and injured my father, so he urgently asked me to go back." Faced with Ding Yi's questioning, Wei Xiao had to make up a lie in an instant and This matter is over.

Hearing that the alchemy furnace exploded, everyone present breathed a sigh of relief. After thinking about it carefully, they were all relieved.

Among them, Ding Yi was even more overjoyed, pointing at Wei Xiao and laughing loudly: "Haha, so that's the case! Brother Wei compared the alchemy furnace to a pressure cooker, it really has a special charm!"

If you look at such things as alchemy furnaces from a secular point of view, it is not a bad idea to compare him to a pressure cooker. After all, the pressure cooker in the secular world is used for cooking, and it can be said that it is an essential tool for wanting to eat;
Compared with the realm of self-cultivation, the alchemy furnace actually has the same effect, and the pills are the food of the monks.

If it was in the past, in the era when the aura was abundant, the aura could be used as a meal for the monks, providing them with everything they needed for cultivation; but in modern times, after the aura is exhausted, most monks rely on pills to support them. After taking the elixir, basically there is no way to go further, and you can only be trapped in a realm for a lifetime.

Seeing Ding Yi smiling so happily, several other Daishan sect members also laughed and looked at Wei Xiao with joy, as if they were looking at a fool.

However, Wei Xiao didn't care about these things. He just lied a little and changed the subject. Other people's jokes had no effect on him at all.

"At the beginning, my family was really in a hurry, otherwise, I would have wanted to get close to Senior Brother Ding after the Grand Competition." Wei Xiao also laughed, but there was a hint of sharpness in his words.

"Oh?" Ding Yi raised his eyebrows, rolled his eyeballs a few times, and asked with a half-smile: "Could it be that Junior Brother Wei came to Daishan School this time to find Brother?"

Ding Yi's question was very tricky, and Wei Xiao couldn't think of how to answer it gracefully for a while.

If the answer is "yes", wouldn't it be obvious that you look down on the Daishan School?If the answer is "no", isn't his previous statement false?
Regardless of answering "yes" or "no", both parties will be offended, so Wei Xiao simply chooses and does not answer.

"After the last fight, I have always been obsessed with Senior Brother Ding's demeanor. I wanted to see him again, but I didn't expect such a coincidence to meet Senior Brother Ding here." Wei Xiao replied with a similar smile.

Speaking of the last big competition, losing the final has always been Ding Yi's biggest worry. Usually no one dared to mention it to him, but Wei Xiao brought it up again and again, which made Ding Yi suddenly Feeling ashamed, he couldn't help feeling a little annoyed.

"Junior Brother Wei is so obsessed with Dabi, it seems that after Dabi won the championship, he has gained a lot of benefits, huh?" Ding Yi suppressed his smile and asked strangely.

Now, Wei Xiao finally didn't have to pretend any longer, and said with a hearty smile: "Of course! Except for Shujie Island, Yunmeng Pavilion gave me all the prizes, so there are naturally many benefits."

As for the prizes for the champion of the Grand Competition, everyone present was well aware that apart from half of the Tree Boundary Island, the others were also things that many people dreamed of, but they did not expect that Yunmeng Pavilion would be so generous and give them all away. Gave Wei Xiao.

Thinking of the items in the championship prize, everyone was envious.

When Ding Yiyi saw that everyone's eyes were on Wei Xiao, especially the elder brother of the Daishan School, there was undisguised envy and admiration in his eyes, which made him feel a strong imbalance in his heart.

The prizes for the championship, including half of the Shujie Island promised by Yunmeng Pavilion, were originally planned by him and some friends in private. If Wei Xiao, a casual cultivator, had not suddenly appeared, all of these prizes would have belonged to him. .

You worked so hard to dig traps and put bait, and you caught a tiger, but someone snatched it away halfway. What kind of mood should you feel?
Ding Yi is in this mood now, although on the surface he is still talking and laughing, amiable, but deep down he hates Wei Xiao very much.

"After talking so much, Junior Brother Wei hasn't answered my question yet!" Ding Yi suddenly interrupted the previous joke loudly, looked at Wei Xiao coldly and said, "I don't know that Junior Brother Wei came to the Daishan School this time. What is the purpose?"

As soon as these words came out, the scene immediately cooled down.Apart from Wei Xiao, the expressions of the rest of the senior Daishan faction also changed, looking at Ding Yi with a trace of anger in their eyes.

As the masters of the Daishan School, they should be asked this kind of question, but now it happened that a disciple of Changshengtang, Yue Daizu, asked this question on behalf of the master of the Daishan School.

Whether intentional or unintentional, this is a kind of humiliation to the Daishan faction.

It's a pity that these senior elders only dared to express their anger secretly, and they didn't do anything other than take a look. They all shut their mouths tightly and pretended not to hear.

This scene made Wei Xiao a little funny. He never thought that the Daishan sect, a famous school with a thousand years of history, would be reduced to the level of being treated like a dog in just 300 years!
"My purpose is actually quite simple." Wei Xiao chuckled, and then said slowly: "I said before that I admire Senior Brother Ding's demeanor very much, so I want to see Senior Brother Ding's Jade Dragon Fan again."
