Pawn Crossing the River

Pseudo-immortals are not immortals, but a very general concept, including top-notch heavenly beings who are only one step away from immortality, heavenly beings who possess some of the characteristics of immortals due to some special reasons, incarnations of immortals, etc.

Among them, the gods in the creation stage who are only one step away from immortality and the gods who have some immortal characteristics due to some special reasons cannot be compared. It is equivalent to both parties being second-grade officials, and the former is expected to ascend to the throne. Look, the other one has reached the end of his official career, and his future prospects are very different.

In the Western context dominated by the Holy Court and the Arcane Council, heavenly beings are called demigods, which means half gods and half humans. The celestial beings in the carefree stage are called quasi-demigods, the celestial beings in the infinite stage are called true demigods, the celestial beings in the creation stage are called legendary demigods, and the pseudo-immortal stage is called god-men, which means A person who is qualified to become a god.

Generally speaking, in the Taoist sect, those who become a heavenly being are qualified to be promoted to a real person. Even if they are not now, they will eventually be in the future. It is nothing more than passing the qualifications. If they don't make mistakes, they can be promoted to the real person at the worst. Retreat.

Other religions are similar. Confucianism calls them masters, Buddhism calls them moral scholars, the Holy Court calls them saints, and the Arcane Council calls them sages. On top of it, there are titles corresponding to the pseudo-immortals, such as the Taoist Ping Zhang Da Zhenren, the Confucian Grand Master, the Buddhist Venerable, the Holy Court's Prophet, the Great Sage of the Arcane Council, etc.

Shi Luosi was a true demigod, a genuine saint, so he was not at a significant disadvantage against Lei Xiaohuan.

Judging from this system that is relatively recognized by both the East and the West, there is a two-level difference between the pseudo-immortal and the immeasurable heavenly being. It is difficult to make up for it with the number of people. Although there are still two "Yinglong" ships hanging in the sky, in the previous battle , "Yinglong" consumes a lot of money and it is difficult to launch the previous offensive.

It can be said that Wu Guangbi appeared at the right time and no one could stop him.

Just when Wu Guangbi was about to put the "Xuan Jade" into his pocket, a slightly weird voice rang out: "Master Wu, if you just want to take the thing away with just one sentence, you don't take Taoism seriously." ? I know that you are the leader of the 'Tianting', but I don't know that you are the master of the Taoist sect. Just one sentence makes so many Taoist sects afraid to breathe. "

Qi Xuansu's expression changed slightly.

Although the voice sounded unmistakable, he immediately recognized that it was Qiniang's voice. Qiniang had many incomprehensible quirks, such as triggers and telescopes. With her level of cultivation, she was really It is not difficult to imitate a man's speech, but she just likes this way of holding her throat, especially when she is angry.

Qi Xuansu had always been irritated by Qiniang, so his memory was particularly vivid. He immediately recognized Qiniang's voice, but no one else would have been able to recognize it.

Then Qi Xuansu figured out something. The flaming meteor that hit Zhenjun Si Ming's face before, and the heat that surged out of the deputy's heart for no reason, were probably related to Qiniang. After all, when Qiniang was not around, the deputy The heart never overflows with heat.

Qi Xuansu thought again, Qiniang said she was going to see an old friend, could it be Wu Guangbi? Looking at this posture, the two of them have not reached an agreement?

Wu Guangbi's face was still calm, but his tone became colder: "Wu has never thought such a thing, let alone said such a thing. This friend might as well show up and make it clear to him face to face with gongs and drums."

Qiniang said cheerfully: "No one knows what you are thinking, only you know it. As for showing up for a meeting, that's not necessary. How can a nobody like me get the discernment of Chief Wu?"

Wu Guangbi narrowed his eyes slightly, looked suddenly in the direction of the ascension platform, and shouted: "Come out!"

This sound was comparable to thunder, and everyone felt their energy and blood shake.

The substantial sound waves gathered together and headed straight for the Ascension Stage.

Qiniang, who had been standing on the ascension stage, immediately appeared, but her appearance changed at this time. Her hair was pulled up high, pinned with only a jade hairpin, and she was wearing a moon-white woven cotton robe. I also followed the example of some fairies and covered my face with a layer of mist to cover my face. It was considered a more advanced veil. The clothes were fluttering, but there was not much copper smell.

Wu Guangbi frowned slightly: "It turns out to be Master Yao."

A white misty cloud appeared under Qiniang's feet and floated towards Wu Guangbi.

After all, Wu Guangbi was the number two figure in the "Tianting". Relying on his status, he did not directly pocket the "Xuan Jade" and run away, but waited quietly for Qiniang to come over.

Just as Qi Xuansu expected, Qiniang said she was going to see an old friend, and she meant to see Wu Guangbi. As for why Wu Guangbi called her "Master Yao", that's another story.

When the others heard the word "Yao Fangzhu" and Wu Guangbi's attitude when they saw her again, they immediately knew the origin of this extraordinary woman. She was the number one person on the silver list and one of the seven owners of Qibaofang, because few people knew her. The only real name and surname known is Yao, so he is called Yao Fangzhu. Just as few people know the original name of the supreme leader of "Tianting", they can only call him Patriarch Jin Gong.

Wu Guangbi is the last person on the gold list, and Yao Fangzhu is the first person on the silver list. The gap between the two is not big, and it can even be said that they are evenly matched.

Qi Xuansu naturally heard the title "Master Yao" and did not immediately think of the identity of the master of Qibaofang, but he couldn't help but mutter in his heart: "Is Qiniang's original surname Yao? Or some kind of master?"

At this moment, Zhang Yuelu no longer fought with Li Mingcheng, but retreated to Qi Xuansu's side and said, "I didn't expect that the leaders of the two secret societies would come to Jinling Mansion."

"Secret society? Give back the leader?" Qi Xuansu was startled.

Zhang Yuelu glanced at him and explained: "The bald man wearing a high crown is Wu Guangbi, the leader of the 'Tianting', the tenth person on the Worry-free List. 'The leader of the road' is their own term, and they deliberately imitate our Taoist master. He is suspected of being a cult leader, so we generally refer to him as the leader of the cult. The ‘Master Yao’ in Wu Guangbi’s mouth is one of the seven masters of Qibaofang and the first person on the Taiping list.”

Only then did Qi Xuansu understand, but he didn't feel too surprised, because Qiniang had already said that most members of the Qingping Society had dual identities. For example, Qi Xuansu himself was the Taoist priest in charge of Ziweitang and a third-class member of the Qingping Society. Qiniang naturally does not have just one identity. In the past, Qi Xuansu guessed Qiniang's other identity more than once.

But not being surprised is one thing, but Qi Xuansu's mood is very complicated.

It's like after eighteen years of hard life, the mother keeps nagging every day about how difficult it is at home. She needs to break a piece of peace money in half to spend it. She needs to be frugal and save money, otherwise she won't be able to marry a wife. The two of them were fighting over a few pieces of peace money all day long, fighting for it. Suddenly one day I discovered that the mother-in-law was actually a big shot. I couldn't say that she was as rich as the country, but she was also rich and powerful. I was surprised to calculate the few peace coins in his hand, just a small amount of silver. Withholding them all, this is such an injustice.

Is this what is called for a man to be raised poor?

Of course, Qi Xuansu was only grateful for the peace money that Qiniang had withheld, and did not think that Qiniang had changed her identity, so he would rise with the tide. Qiniang did not owe him anything, but he owed Qiniang a lot.

The so-called statement of mother and son can be taken seriously or not. Emotionally, you can take it seriously, but when it comes to various interests, don't take it too seriously.

Just as Qi Xuansu's thoughts were racing, Qiniang had already arrived not far from Wu Guangbi.

Wu Guangbi twitched the corner of his mouth: "Master Yao, do you have to be in trouble with me?"

Qiniang continued to say in that strange voice: "Why not?"

Wu Guangbi waved the wooden stick in his hand, and thunder rumbled immediately, and rain clouds gathered, as if a heavy rain was about to fall.

Call for the wind and rain.

Wu Guangbi waved the wooden stick in his hand, and the rain clouds immediately dispersed, leaving the sky clear.

Clear the clouds and see the sun.

Wu Guangbi used this to show that his superb cultivation level was not much inferior to that of the incarnation of Lord Siming who could not come to the human world. Considering that the Yin Qi of Lord Siming is naturally suppressed by the human world, it is inevitable that there will be a discount. If there is a fight, it is extremely difficult to predict who will win and who will lose.

Qiniang was not afraid, she just smiled and said: "Since we can't reach an agreement, we have no choice but to see the real chapter."
