The Right Protector of the Demon Sect is reborn

"Master, don't worry about that." Nan Rongnian felt helpless after hearing this. He tilted his head slightly and smiled, "I have the ability to protect myself. If I really encounter trouble that I can't handle, I will send you a message."

Lou Xinzhou was still a little hesitant. There were too many Tribulation-crossing masters at the competition venue, and it was not easy to use sleight of hand. Although it was not impossible to use the method of concealing one's breath, it would be difficult to explain if he was discovered by some powerful person. At that time, no matter who he was, he would be regarded as sneaking around with ulterior motives. He would first have to be labeled as having ulterior motives before being interrogated about his purpose.

It's not a good idea after all. In fact, there's no need to do this just to find out the opponent's strength.

But Bai Yun is too famous, and he certainly cannot appear at the venue openly. The best way is to let Nan Rongnian go to the venue alone to watch the competition.

"Then I will give you a higher level of deception and lower your cultivation level."

After a long time, Lou Xinzhou compromised.

Nan Rongnian nodded slightly when he heard this, then took her hand and spoke softly.

"Master, I'll take you back."

After Nan Rongnian left, Lou Xinzhou sat down at the stone table in the yard. She was somewhat worried because she couldn't follow Nan Rongnian, so she stared at the koi in the pond for a while.

An unknown amount of time had passed, but the fish in the pond swayed its body like a crescent moon. Lou Xinzhou suddenly remembered that he wanted to make a pair of jade pendants for Nan Rongnian to use for spiritual communication. He immediately became interested and sat up straight unconsciously.

In the past few days, she had been thinking about what kind of thing she should make. Now, looking at the fish in the pond, she got an inspiration.

Anyway, the preliminaries will take a long time, so she might as well use this time to forge this thing, just in time for Nan Rongnian’s eighteenth birthday.

But Bai Yun didn't like refining equipment, she didn't have a good furnace, and she didn't even have all the raw materials needed for refining equipment. After thinking about it for a while, she came up with an idea.

If she doesn't have anything, she can just buy it. It just so happens that several cities near Tianhele are very prosperous, so she might as well go and take a look.

There is no need to worry about money. She had bought several Earth-level talismans at the Lan Yue auction before, but she hasn't gone to withdraw the money until now. Based on the price at that time, it is enough for her to purchase the things she needs right now.

Moreover, Lanyue Pavilion is the largest auction house in the world of cultivation, with branches in many cities. Tianhele is a weapon manufacturer, and Lanxing will certainly not let go of such a huge supplier. Therefore, she will most likely, no, it should be that she will be able to find a branch of Lanxing in a nearby city. In that way, she will not need to go to Changning to withdraw the money, and can solve it nearby.

Thinking of this, Lou Xinzhou called Han Wei out without saying a word, and went down the mountain directly without telling anyone.

It was just a purchase, so it would be fine to go early and come back early. There was no need to tell other people. As for Nan Rongnian, she didn't want him to be distracted.

......

After Nan Rongnian returned to the venue, it was Xue Tang and his companions' turn to compete. He, Ma Ziming, and three others, including Elder Chang's disciple Fan Beisi, were all talented, so they won the competition easily. However, Meng Yun encountered some problems.

Meng Yun's talent was not bad. She had established her foundation at the age of twelve. Although she had never been able to break through to the golden elixir stage, she was much stronger than the average person. She had few rivals among the disciples of the same level. Logically, she should have had no problem passing the preliminaries, but by chance she met a disciple from a large sect, who happened to be one of the two Kunlun Xu disciples, the one who had only established his foundation.

At this moment, the two were confronting each other in a very anxious manner, but the disciple of Kunlun was very relaxed, while Meng Yun was covered in dust and sweat, looking extremely miserable. She was gasping for breath, and the hand holding the sword was shaking so much that she could hardly hold it.

"My little sister, your strong will is admirable, but you are already like this, otherwise..."

The disciple of Kunlun couldn't bear to watch it anymore and hesitated to try to persuade him.

After hearing this, Meng Yun didn't even look at him, but shook his head and rejected it without hesitation.

She had a poor talent, and she knew it from a very young age, but she was the daughter of the head of the sect, and had obtained many things that ordinary people could not get since she was born. Many people envied her very much, but there were even more people who were jealous of her, saying that she had mediocre talent and that she just had a good father and a good life.

But she just didn't believe it. She could have directly become a disciple of the elders of the sect based on her status as the daughter of the sect leader. However, in order to prove to everyone that she could also become a direct disciple through her own efforts, she refused.

With the unwillingness in her heart, she practiced hard day and night and finally succeeded. Since she broke through the foundation, those people in the sect gradually kept their mouths shut, and occasionally they could be heard praising her as a genius.

Just breaking through the foundation-building stage is not enough. The watershed between ordinary people and geniuses is the Jindan stage. Therefore, she was not accepted as a personal disciple at that time, until today.

This time, Meng Heshan accepted her as his personal disciple in advance in order to allow her to participate in the competition. However, because of this, those unpleasant words began to spread in the sect again.

So she thought that she must prove to them in this competition that she was talented, and that she deserved to be accepted as a disciple, not because of her status.

But who could have imagined that he would actually meet someone from Kunlun Xu, the second most powerful sect in the world?

That person was really amazing, and seemed to be four or five years younger than her. Was he a truly talented person? Was she really going to stop here?

Mingming came here with full confidence, and Meng Heshan and Xue Tang also said that she would definitely pass the preliminaries.

"Hey, um, you...why are you crying?"

The disciple of Kunlun Xu didn't expect her to be like this, and he was not good at dealing with girls. Seeing this, he was a little at a loss, and the competition changed. He couldn't bear to take action, so he just dodged Meng Yun's attacks everywhere.

But the disciples who were watching the fight didn't care whether Meng Yun was crying or not. They started talking about it, and naturally, what they said was not a good thing.

"Is that female disciple here to make fun of me?"

"That is to say, if you can't beat him, then you can't beat him. There's no need to cry. What kind of look is that?"

"If I were her, I would just admit defeat and at least have some self-awareness."

"Heroes see the same thing."

Nan Rongnian was not far from those disciples and had arrived early, so he did not miss a single word they said. Upon hearing what they said, he looked over coldly.

Those disciples noticed his gaze and were startled for some reason. They felt a little uncomfortable and shut up.

Meng Yun finally left the scene. When Xue Tang and Ma Ziming arrived to pick her up, she could no longer hold back and burst into tears without caring about her image.

"..."

Now the surrounding disciples started talking even louder.

"Which sect does she belong to?"

"Who else could it be? Guanyun Sect."

Someone replied soon.

"Huo, the new six sects, can you become a direct disciple even with this?"

"Yeah, I also think it's outrageous. Besides, there are only a few disciples coming this time, you can count them on one hand, and none of them are very powerful."

Several more people joined the discussion.

"They are a small sect. I think it's normal."

"That's right. The Six Gates were promoted thanks to Venerable Bai Yun's coming out of seclusion."

"Oh, speaking of this, didn't they say that the disciple of Venerable Bai Yun is also coming to participate in the competition?"

"Really? Didn't he just start practicing Qi? I saw him at the Dingmen Banquet last time."

"He should have broken through to the foundation building stage. This exchange competition is limited to the foundation building stage to the Nascent Soul stage. Otherwise, how could he come to participate?"

"Did you see him at the foundation-building field?"

Suddenly, a younger disciple asked.

"Ah? Little Junior Brother, don't you know? The Master's disciples don't have to participate in the preliminaries."

"Eh? Why? This isn't fair at all."

The young disciple sighed.

"I think so too. He is about 17 or 18 years old. Half a year ago, he was still practicing Qi. His talent is too poor. If he didn't have this privilege, he probably wouldn't even make it through the preliminaries. I wonder who he squeezed out."

Nan Rongnian didn't want to cause trouble, so he turned and left after listening for long.
