I just want to be a quiet man

Pei Ling let go of the big stone in his heart, straightened his robes, and walked out of the training room.

Just as he opened the door, he saw Shi Wanli standing not far away.

Chapter 152: Wanted.

Seeing Shi Wanli, Pei Ling was about to say hello, but he immediately noticed that Shi Wanli's expression at the moment was very strange!

The other party stood there seemingly casually, but when his eyes flickered, he was full of vigilance, as if he was on guard for something.

Seeing this, Pei Ling's heart sank slightly. Could it be that his identity has been exposed?

"Master Wang!" Seeing Pei Ling coming out, Shi Wanli immediately changed into a smiling face, and hurriedly greeted him, "City Master Yuchi has agreed to specially arrange for the master to be sent to Meiyang City. Just considering the importance of the master's status, now the alchemy ceremony During this period, many demon cultivators sneaked into our dynasty with evil intentions."

"For the sake of safety, City Lord Yuchi specially ordered people to check the teleportation array to avoid accidents."

"This move will delay the master's one-day schedule. To express his apology, the city lord specially held a banquet in the mansion. He wants to invite the master to come and apologize in person."

As he said that, before Pei Ling could answer, he immediately took out a picture scroll and handed it over.

Pei Ling didn't understand what he meant, so he took a look, and in the picture scroll was a young monk with a stern temperament, exactly his true colors!

On the top of the portrait, there are three big characters "Wanted Warrant" written impressively!

The moment he saw the arrest warrant clearly, Pei Ling shook his hand slightly, and almost subconsciously used the [Vampire Escape Technique] to escape. Fortunately, he reacted in time and immediately asked calmly, "Lord Shi, who is this?"

Shi Wanli showed a slight annoyance, and said, "Hmph! This is a daring demon cultivator who does all kinds of evil!"

"In broad daylight, you dare to make trouble in the City Lord's Mansion!"

"This move is a provocation to our court!"

"Now the entire city's protective array has been fully opened, and all gates are allowed to enter and not allowed to exit."

"City Lord Yuchi has already spoken, and within three days, this head will be taken!"

Speaking of this, his tone was a little slow, and he said courteously, "Master, a monk of the demonic way has always been vicious and vicious. This demonic cultivator dared to sneak into our court and cause trouble with mere foundation building, which shows that the villain is extremely evil! But The master has now entered our court, and the safety of the master is our responsibility."

"Master, please rest assured, I will definitely follow the master closely to protect the safety of the master..."

Hearing this, Pei Ling's face became a little stiff, and he coughed dryly and said, "So, there is Laoshi Lord. By the way, the City Lord's Mansion is hosting a banquet. I don't know when to leave? I want to change clothes before leaving."

Shi Wanli hurriedly said: "The City Lord's Mansion is waiting for Master to go anytime, Master, please do it yourself!"

Watching Pei Ling leave, he didn't miss Pei Ling's unnatural expression at that moment, but he didn't suspect anything either.

After all, this master is from Wanbohai!

As for the Chongming Sect, one of the four major sects of the Demonic Dao, it is well known that ten years ago, for the sake of the outer sect Tianjiao Han Sigu, the master of the monitoring palace came to the Sea of ​​Ten Thousand Pigs in person.

I also know that Master Wang Gao must be daring to be angry with Moxiu, and even like the sister and brother of the wife of the city owner, he still trembles in his heart.

Otherwise, after hearing Moxiu, the other party would not reveal a little abnormality even though he tried his best to cover it up.

In this case, letting him know about Moxiu's intrusion into the city lord's mansion, and then promising the protection of the dynasty, will obviously greatly increase the chances of the master staying in the dynasty after participating in the alchemy ceremony.

At the same time, it can also increase the other party's goodwill towards you!

Your own future is stable!

But at this moment, Pei Ling, whom Shi Wanli regarded as his guarantee for his promotion, returned to the guest house in a hurry, checked that there was no problem around him, and then changed into the robe of a fifth-rank alchemist.

Afterwards, just in case, he took out the poisonous pills again, took ten poisonous pills with different poisons in one breath, and then took the corresponding poison-proofing pills, wrapped these pills with true essence and sword intent, Don't let the power of the medicine dissipate in your body.

After finishing this series of preparations, Pei Ling gathered his mind before walking outside.

※※※

City Lord's Mansion, main hall.

Because the host and guest hadn't arrived, everyone hadn't moved to the side hall where the banquet was held, but at this moment, the spacious main hall was already full of people.

Maids in colorful clothes shuttled among them, serving tea and water, as well as various kinds of fruits and pastries.

The lord of the city, Wei Chi Kezhen, occupies the high position, and many prominent figures in the lower city have already arrived.

The three students of Yulin Academy, Gu Nanxun, Xin Yuhan, and He Zhuzhi, also sat down with them in an upright manner.

Originally, with their qualifications and age, even if they were from noble backgrounds and were students of Yulin Academy, they were not qualified to attend this kind of occasion.

It's just that Gu Nanxun's teacher has a pivotal position in Dan Dao.

In addition, Shi Wanli is also a student of Yulin Academy, and is the senior brother of the three of them.Therefore, in order to repay Shi Wanli and give him a chance to get in touch with the fifth-rank alchemist, Yuchi Kebin specially sent invitations to them.

However, even though they appeared here, the three of them didn't have a chance to speak at all, they could only sit upright and listen carefully to the high-spirited talks of many seniors.

"The demon cultivator is vicious and inhumane, and it's okay to ravage his old lair. It's unreasonable to come to my court to act wildly this time!"

"That's right! These demon thieves should be killed!"

"The Lun Dan Grand Ceremony is still in the audition, and you dare to enter the city lord's mansion to make trouble, it is simply reckless!"

"Don't think about it, this demon must be from Wushi Villa. Although the four major demon sects are not good things, but Wushi Villa is the most moody! I heard that not long ago, a disciple of Su Zhentian was in Wanshi The murder of Fei Hai was also caused by Wu Shi Villa."

"Right now, Su Zhentian is searching everywhere for evidence, and is going to seek justice for his disciples."

"Wushi Villa...huh! Suzhentian's disciple died in the Wanfei Sea, and the evidence may have been destroyed. But this incident happened in Qi City, so the evidence is solid. I am not easy to bully ! After this matter is reported, Your Majesty and all the adults will definitely come forward in person and ask Wushi Villa for an explanation!"

"That's right! Wushi Villa is known as the number one sect of the Demon Dao. Over the years, I don't know how many tragic things have been done. As things go on, the Demon Dao has become more and more arrogant, and it has become more and more ignorant of my righteous way. It has greatly contributed to my stability. unfavorable!"

"We must teach them a lesson!"

At this moment, everyone already knew what had happened to the mayor's wife, and it was the excitement of the crowd.

Even someone like Xue Ruyan who doesn't like the Yan Qinlang siblings feels very angry.

No matter what, Yan Qinlang is the wife of the city lord, and she was almost boiled by the devil under the eyes of everyone. This is a blatant contempt for the dynasty!

This demon cultivator must die!

At this moment, Yuchi Kexuan said in a deep voice: "For this alchemy ceremony, I have managed to produce a fifth-grade alchemist in the city. After this master is settled, the city lord will definitely take action to arrest the demon cultivator himself." !"

As soon as the city lord mentioned the fifth-grade alchemist, everyone immediately cheered up.

The main purpose of those who come here tonight to participate in the banquet is for this newly promoted fifth-rank alchemist!

This kind of alchemy master who can stably refine the best alchemy, even if everyone present here, all have considerable status and power, but no one thinks that he has too many connections, and being able to make friends with a fifth-rank alchemist, Naturally, the opportunity will not be missed.

However, except for He Wufu and a few people who have witnessed Master Wang Gao's alchemy, most of the visitors are very unfamiliar with the name Wang Gao.

Especially when I heard that this person came from Wan Feihai as a casual cultivator... Although Wan Feihai had never been an alchemist before, but a fifth-rank alchemist with such a skill has no reputation, which really makes people suspicious.

Over the years, due to the Greedy Dynasty's recruitment of talents from all over the world and their generous remuneration, it is not uncommon for casual cultivators abroad to try to cheat and cheat the Dynasty to obtain generous rewards.

Considering this, even though he knew that Yuchi Kejun and He Wufu and the others would not talk about such a big matter, at this moment, among the crowd, there was an old man in blue robe who pondered for a moment and asked, "Master Xue, what about that?" Wang Gao's alchemy skills have really reached the level of a fifth-rank alchemist?"

Chapter 153: I have met Master Wang Gao in person.

Ok?

Hearing this, before Yuchi Kezhen could speak, Xue Ruyan frowned, and said, "The level of a fifth-rank alchemist? Mr. Zeng, what do you think of Xue's alchemy skills?"

The blue-robed old man Zeng Lao said: "Master Xue is joking, you are the number one alchemy master recognized by our city, and there is no need to talk about alchemy."

"How high is Master Wang Gao's alchemy skills, Xue can't be sure." Xue Ruyan said quietly, "But one thing Xue can be sure of is that his alchemy skills must be far above Xue's! "

"In fact, Xue has been stagnant in alchemy in recent years, and he has retreated and studied many times to no avail. However, after witnessing him refining a batch of foundation-building pills, he was touched."

"Just half a day ago, when Yu Baigongya borrowed the alchemy room, the chances of the alchemy becoming the best product doubled in an instant!"

"What?" Elder Zeng was taken aback for a moment, and the rest of the people, including He Wufu, Gu Nanxun and others who had seen Pei Ling refining Peiyuan Pill, also showed surprise on their faces, "Then Master Wang Gao, the skills are so pure?"

Xue Ruyan said hesitantly: "Is it necessary for Xue to tell lies?"

He was a fifth-rank alchemist born and raised in the Liugai Dynasty, and he had no reason to lie about a casual cultivator who just came from Wanfeihai.

Moreover, Xue Ruyan is notoriously proud of her talents, and she is determined to disdain such a move.

Thinking of this, Zeng Lao and the others all became serious.

This Master Wang Gao seems to have more weight than they imagined!

"Actually, the greatness of Master Wang Gao is not only in alchemy." He Wufu also admired Master Wang Gao very much, but because of Xue Ruyan's presence, he was afraid that he would provoke Xue Ruyan by talking too much about Wang Gao. do not like.

But since Xue Ruyan took the lead in admiring Wang Gao, he couldn't help but say, "And his firmness of Taoism is the only thing I've ever seen in my life!"

"During the audition, Master Wang Gao disliked the time given for too long. After entering the arena, he rested for a long time, and only started the furnace when the time was approaching."

"And in the middle of opening the furnace, there was a lone alchemy master whose skill was too poor. He fried the furnace in public, and the pieces of the alchemy furnace almost passed the master's body."

"In this case, anyone would be instinctively frightened."

"But Master Wang Gao was indifferent. After he started alchemy, his mind was as calm and focused as a rock, unmoved by any changes in the outside world!"

"Even if the alchemists of the Dynasty are enshrined, as far as I know, not all of them can be so calm."

"As for Master Wang Gao, he is still young, and his cultivation is only a mere foundation building. With such alchemy techniques and such a state of mind, those who enter the 'Xiao Zi Zai Tian' in this alchemy ceremony must have the name of master Wang!"

"That's right!" Xue Ruyan nodded approvingly, "In time, every move of Master Wang Gao will become a legend! Even if we can't get him to settle in the city, just because Master Wang Gao is here now, he day, and will become famous all over the world.”

"Although this master is young, he is a true unborn genius!"

"His amazing talent is stunning, and he is a talent of the world!"

Speaking of this, he glanced at Gu Nanxun, and said earnestly, "Nephew Gu, I have a good relationship with your teacher. I have heard him praise your qualifications and efforts many times in letters. But there are people beyond people, and there is a sky beyond the sky." , your talent is fair compared to ordinary people. Compared with Master Wang Gao, it is nothing less than a world of difference."

"This time, the support of the city lord allows you to attend the banquet tonight. Don't miss this opportunity. If you have a chance later, you should ask Master Wang Gao for advice."

"Even if you learn a little bit of it, it will be enough for you to benefit endlessly in this life!"

Xue Ruyan's words were very blunt. Gu Nanxun, who had always been loved as a genius alchemist in Yulin Academy, was not worth mentioning in his mouth.

But instead of feeling disgusted, Gu Nanxun nodded vigorously.

She witnessed Pei Ling's furnace of thirty Peiyuan pills, each of which was of the highest quality, and she was deeply shocked by the alchemy skills of this master Wang Gao.

Even without Xue Ruyan's suggestion, Gu Nanxun would not let go of this opportunity to ask for advice.

First up, Yuchi Kezhen listened, his heart moved slightly.

Originally thought that this kind of newly promoted fifth-rank alchemist came from abroad, and he was only at the level of entering the fifth-rank. Compared with Xue Ruyan, an old-fashioned fifth-rank alchemist from the dynasty, there was still a considerable gap.

Who knew, listening to it now, the other party's skill is so high that even Xue Ruyan is ashamed of himself?

Even considering his age, his achievements in the future must be higher than that of Xue Ruyan!

Thinking of this, Yuchi Kezhen immediately sent a message to Houtang's wife: "Madam, double the gift you originally prepared, otherwise you may be suspected of neglecting Master Wang Gao."

In the back hall, Yan Qinlang silently used his cultivation to hear the conversation before him clearly. Hearing the words at this moment, he was not surprised but happy, and immediately replied via voice transmission: "Don't worry, my husband, I will prepare it myself."

As he said that, he glanced at the demon wolf beside him, and said happily, "Little brother, as long as Master Wang Gao let go tonight, you will definitely be able to transform into a success!"

The demon wolf nodded vigorously, and ran towards the storeroom impatiently: "Sister, hurry up! Let's go and prepare another generous gift for Master Wang Gao!"

But at this moment, in the main hall, everyone was chatting and chatting, and suddenly felt something wrong: Why hasn't Master Wang Gao arrived yet?

Mr. Zeng was usually the most suspicious, and now he couldn't help frowning and asked: "Since Moxiu dares to infiltrate the city lord's mansion to make trouble, will it also be detrimental to Master Wang Gao?"

Hearing this, the whole main hall was shocked.

Yuchi Kexuan immediately stood up, and said in a deep voice: "Mr. Zeng is extremely worried! Please sit down here for a while, and I will personally meet Master Wang Gao!"

Before the words were finished, a notification came from the guards outside: "Lord Shi escorted Master Wang Gao, and he has already arrived at the gate of the mansion!"

"Okay, okay!" Yuchi Kebin was overjoyed, and hurriedly said, "Please! No, please come out, Madam, and go to the door with me to meet Master Wang!"

Hearing the words, everyone said one after another: "A alchemist with such skill deserves the courtesy, and we will go with the city lord."

A while later, many prominent figures in the city, headed by Yuchi Kezhen, met Pei Ling at the gate of the city lord's mansion.

Under Shi Wanli's introduction, the two sides exchanged greetings.

When Yan Qinlang was introduced, the lady of the city lord, who had already changed her clothes and dressed up specially, bowed her knees before Pei Ling could speak, and said modestly: "My concubine is Yan Qinlang, and I have met Master Wang Gao! Master Younger and more promising than I imagined, I only know today, why ambition is not based on age."

After speaking, he smiled softly, full of friendliness.

Pei Ling looked at the victim from a long while ago, her face froze, and then she returned to normal with a dry smile: "Ma'am, don't be too polite."

When everyone saw this, they only said that the master was surprised that the wife of the city lord turned out to be a monster.

It is common for monks outside the imperial dynasty to be uncomfortable with this point when they first arrive in the imperial dynasty.

Everyone tacitly kept silent, and after some politeness, they surrounded Pei Ling and went to the main hall to serve tea.
