I just want to be a quiet man

Watching him go away, Pei Ling immediately walked into the alchemy room.

At this moment, the alchemy room is quite empty, and the original alchemy objects are gathered in the corner.

Yuxuezhao ostentatiously occupied the center position, and at the moment she was sitting cross-legged on a futon in her human body, concentrating on her cultivation.

Its aura is long, and the whole body is full of monster energy.

Sensing Pei Ling entering, her ears moved slightly, then ignored the dog's owner and continued to practice.

Seeing this, Pei Ling didn't care. He immediately took out the alchemy furnace and checked that the materials were correct. Then he injected a mana into the cassock and said in his heart: "System, I want to practice, one-key entrustment..."

Chapter 67: Is the rumor true or false?

The system quickly responded: "Ding dong! The intelligent cultivation system will serve you wholeheartedly! One-click trusteeship, smart upgrade! Start hosting practice now, intimate reminder: During the practice period, the host will lose control of the body, please don't panic..."

"Ding dong! The system is training for you..."

An hour later, Pei Ling finished refining all the remaining elixirs for the mission. The next moment, he felt a tingling pain in his vest and regained control of his body. He carefully counted the amount of elixirs and confirmed that they were correct. He couldn't help but nodded slightly.

All the pills required for the task agreed with Sun Mujian have been refined.

Now wait for the other party to send someone to check and accept, and then complete the contract.

At this moment, Yuxuezhao had already finished her training, and she was standing by the alchemy furnace every step of the way.

Seeing that Pei Ling had finally finished refining the pill, he said excitedly, "Master, are you refining these for me?"

As he spoke, he nodded to the jade bottles in front of Pei Ling, with anticipation in his eyes.

Pei Ling put away all these pills, and said, "These pills have to be traded with Elder Sun. If you want to eat them, we can talk about them later."

Yu Xuezhao immediately looked disappointed, this dog owner is really too stingy, he throws himself down at every turn, after returning, he is reluctant to even give up a few pills, he can't compare with Jin Sumian at all...

Pei Ling then ordered: "Go out and look at the door, it's not convenient for me to show up right now."

"When someone comes to look for me later, you come in and report immediately."

"...Oh." Yu Xuezhao walked out reluctantly.

Pei Ling was the only one left in the alchemy room. He straightened his robes and was about to practice for a while, but he heard Yu Xuezhao's sound transmission in his ears: "Dog master, someone has come to look for you."

Hearing this, Pei Ling was slightly surprised. In order to hide his whereabouts this time, he didn't even activate his divine sense, so he didn't know that someone came from outside the alchemy room.

But at this moment, except for Dou Dai, no one else knew that he had returned to the city, and the person who came to look for him was most likely the person sent by Sun Mujian to inspect and accept the elixir.

Seeing the efficiency of doing things, Sun Mu is very good.

Thinking of this, Pei Ling ordered via voice transmission: "Bring people in."

Yuxue said, "Got it."

Soon, she walked in with a female cultivator with gorgeous dress and elegant appearance.

This female cultivator is wearing a double-knife bun, a hibiscus crown, and a sword-shaped walk. Her skin is as radiant as snow, her eyes are like peach blossoms, her arms are covered with orange ground camellia flowers, she wears a tea-white short jacket, and her skirt is twelve broken-color wreaths. , while walking, the ribbon dances with a light pace.

It was Qiao Ciguang!

Pei Ling's heart skipped a beat. What's going on?

How did Qiao Ciguang know that he was here?

Sun Mu saw that the person sent to inspect and accept the elixir was Qiao Ciguang? ?

not good!

Qiao Ciguang and Yan Minghua are from the same school, that matter...

Just as Pei Ling looked at Qiao Ciguang, Qiao Ciguang felt a strange feeling in his heart.

The aura of this alchemist is very well concealed, not revealing at all, with a wolf mask on her face, she can't tell if she has met him before.

But I don't know why... I just really want to get close to the other party!

I really want to double cultivate with each other!

It doesn't even matter if you are forced to do all kinds of things that violate propriety, justice, integrity, and things you have never heard or seen!

While thinking about it, Qiao Ciguang suddenly woke up, it was the [Heart Demon Dayan Curse]!

Realizing this, she didn't reveal anything on her face, and said calmly: "Master, under the order of Elder Sun of Jiuyi Mountain, ask Master to inspect and accept a batch of pills."

"As for the Huye Zhumomu that the master wants, I have already brought it."

Hearing this, Pei Ling immediately came to his senses. Fortunately, it seems that Qiao Ciguang still doesn't know anything...

He immediately said: "Okay, you can check and accept."

With that said, Pei Ling took out storage bags one after another.

Seeing that the pills he was asked to refine were quite a lot, Sun Mu filled a total of more than ten storage pouches.

At the same time, Qiao Ciguang also took out a palm-sized sapling, which was sealed in a piece of clear amber without any breath, and many forbidden runes were engraved on the outside of the amber for preservation.

The shape of the branches and leaves of this sapling is very rare, and it is quite different from ordinary seedlings.

Qiao Ciguang handed it to Pei Ling, and began to check the pills in the storage bag.

Pei Ling took the amber and looked at the saplings in it.

Its branches and leaves are all green, like flawless emeralds, and in each leaf, there are red threads like spider webs spreading.

The part near the root of the tree has more dense red lines; the part near the top of the tree is slightly rarer.

Although it is frozen in amber, it still seems to be swaying slightly, like a dream.

After becoming the Holy Son, Pei Ling received the inheritance of the Holy Son's Blood Throne.

In addition to exercises, spells, and supernatural powers, there is also a lot of common sense about cultivation.

As for the materials for transforming gods, the Holy Son's Inheritance introduced it very clearly, whether it is appearance, breath, utility, common forgery techniques, identification details...

Right now, he just observed a little bit, and then pinched a few spells used to appraise treasures in the inheritance of the Holy Son, and he can be sure that this tree is complete in appearance and high in quality, which is a rare and high-quality tree. Material.

Trading with the orthodox sect is much more worry-free.

Thinking in his heart, Pei Ling put away the wild tree and looked at Qiao Ciguang who was counting the pills in front of him.

At this moment, Qiao Ciguang was still checking the pills in the storage bag.

With her cultivation base, the number is clear at a glance.

Just to avoid accidents, each elixir needs to be checked individually for its authenticity and quality, which takes a lot of time.

In fact, based on her impression of Pei Ling, she was very trustworthy.

But after all, this is not her own business, but Elder Sun of Jiuyi Mountain asked her to help, so it must be carried out according to the specific process.

Time passed slowly, and after about two hours, Qiao Ciguang finally finished testing all the pills, all of which were of the highest grade, not even a single top grade.

The fineness of this batch of elixirs far exceeded the acceptance criteria given by Elder Sun!

Qiao Ciguang looked at Pei Ling in surprise, and said, "There is no problem with the pill, the amount has been verified, and the transaction is completed."

Pei Ling nodded: "There is no problem with Hu Ye, the transaction is completed."

Before the words fell, he instantly felt that the power of the contract that bound him in the dark disappeared.

He has fulfilled the agreement to meet Sun Mu!

Immediately, Pei Ling couldn't help heaving a sigh of relief, the contract was completed, and he had better leave Jiuyi Mountain immediately.

Right now, his cultivation base is in the late stage of Yuanying, and he doesn't know when the external calamity will come, so staying in Miao City is not a good thing for himself or for the creatures in this city.

With a flick of Qiao Ciguang's sleeve, he put away all the pills in an instant.She looked slightly hesitant, but finally she asked via voice transmission: "The... rumor between you and Si Hongqing, is it true or not?"

Chapter 68: I am a gentleman.

Pei Ling was thinking about her next plan, but she didn't realize it for a while.

After his mind went blank for a breath, he suddenly realized what it was!

Qiao Ciguang recognized his identity!

It's not Wang Gao, but his identity as the Holy Son of Chongming Sect!

When he was on Tianwai Island last time, he told Qiao Ciguang his real name.

Right now, he is using [Blood Without Face] to cover up his true face, and he is wearing a mask that isolates perception. How did Qiao Ciguang recognize him...it is [Heart Demon Dayan Curse]!

Thinking of this, Pei Ling immediately calmed down. Qiao Ciguang deliberately sent a voice transmission to ask, instead of leaving quickly and then notifying Zhengdao to come to encircle and suppress him. He must have no intention of revealing his identity...

So, Pei Ling looked at Yu Xuezhao, and ordered: "Go and watch outside, I have something to talk to Qiao Daoyou."

Yuxue glanced reluctantly at the storage tool in Qiao Ciguang's hand that contained the elixir, replied lazily, and walked out immediately.

In the alchemy room, only Pei Ling and Qiao Ciguang were left.

Until this time, Pei Ling coughed dryly, and said immediately: "Friend Qiao, long time no see."

Qiao Ciguang stared at his face, nodded slowly, waiting for his answer.

Pei Ling pondered for a while, and then said: "There is nothing between me and Si Hongqing! Those are all false rumors, including the so-called massacre of cities and clans, and they have nothing to do with me."

"The so-called holy son of the Chongming Sect, frankly speaking, was completely supported by the Jiu'a Li family, and used by the three families to compete for the position of the Chongming Sect's suzerain."

"As for myself, I have been obsessed with alchemy since I was a child, and I know nothing but alchemy."

"The other rumors are all spread by Chongming Sect. When I came out of the alchemy room, the rumors were already raging and I couldn't recover."

"I myself have been innocent so far."

"I also hope that Fellow Daoist Qiao will never trust these people to say what they say. They have misunderstood me."

What he was talking about was pure nonsense, but Qiao Ciguang had fallen under the 【Heart Demon Dayan Curse】, what if he believed it?

Anyway, no matter what, he is surrounded by upright people, so he must be an upright gentleman!

Hearing this, Qiao Ciguang's originally hesitant expression suddenly showed a smile.

Pei Ling really wasn't that kind of person, she read it right at the time!

So she said seriously: "I believe in you!"

Ok?

Believe it so easy?

It seems that the effect of [Heart Demon Dayan Curse] is stronger than he imagined.

That's great!

Heaving a sigh of relief, Pei Ling was about to find an excuse to get away, but Qiao Ciguang continued, "Pei... Fellow Daoist, thank you for saving Junior Sister Ruan Zhi's life for the chance to float on the island last time."

"My uncle has only two disciples, if something happens to junior sister Ruan Zhi, I really don't know how to explain to her."

Pei Ling said: "It's just a small effort, it's nothing to worry about. It's a pity that my cultivation base was limited and my strength was not enough. Otherwise, I could have saved everyone else."

Qiao Ciguang's face was reddish, he walked a few steps closer, and then said softly, "Fellow Daoist Pei, can you leave the Demon Gate and join me in the righteous way?"

"Although Su Zhentian only accepts female disciples, the Liugai Dynasty, Han'an Sword Sect, Jiuyi Mountain, and Yanxi City are all excellent places to go."

"I am willing to use my life as a proof for a fellow daoist. A fellow daoist is in the magic gate, and his heart is for the light."

"At that time, please use the Patriarch to help the fellow Taoists get rid of the control of the Chongming Sect and enter the door of the righteous way."

Hearing this, Pei Ling's face froze slightly.

If Qiao Ciguang had said this to him when he was still in the outer sect of Chongming Sect, he would have readily agreed.

But now, the entire Righteous Path has issued a wanted arrest for him.

During this period of time, he was active in Jiuyi Mountain, and he had already seen countless arrest warrants for himself.

What's worse, his wanted bounty is actually the same as that of Chongming sect's suzerain, Su Lijing!

Plus that time in front of the true biography of the Eight Sects, Caibu Sihong fell in love...

I'm afraid that only Qiao Ciguang will believe that he is kind and innocent in the whole world now...

Let alone joining the righteous way now, as long as he dares to expose his identity as "Pei Ling", he will definitely die without a place to bury him.

Therefore, Pei Ling sighed, and then said in a deep voice: "What is righteousness? What is demon? There are also criminals in the righteous way, and there are brothers and sisters in the evil sect."

"The difference between good and evil, in the final analysis, does not lie in skills, spells, supernatural powers, external things, or fame. The most important thing is the human heart."
