Unexpectedly, it made people cry.
Yin Tianchen couldn't laugh or cry.
He looked helplessly at Yan Zhiling who was holding back his tears but still streaming down his face, sighed for a while, and opened his arms towards him.
Yan Zhiling immediately rushed into his arms like a swallow falling into a forest.
Yin Tianchen felt a little tight in his chest when he was hit.
"You are as bad as your father! Your father is a big liar, and you are a big liar too!" Yan Zhiling cried like a four-hundred-year-old child.
Yin Tianchen felt wronged: "When did I lie to you?"
Yan Zhiling: "You said you would stay with me forever!"
Yin Tianchen: "...I never said that."
Yan Zhiling: "You said you said you said you said you said woo woo woo woo—"
Yin Tianchen: "Okay, I said it."
Yan Zhiling: "If you don't mean what you say in the future, I, I will... take another good apprentice!"
Yin Tianchen stared: "How dare you!"
Yan Zhiling shrank his neck, nestled in his arms, and sniffled aggrievedly.
Yin Tianchen patted him on the back again and again, and when Yan Zhiling's body stopped shaking, he asked the previous question again: "Master, let me ask you for the last time, what do you think about the relationship between us?" relationship?"
Yan Zhiling stuttered and couldn't speak.
Yin Tianchen sighed, and said: "Then let me change the question, Master, why don't you agree to become a Taoist partner with me?"
Yan Zhiling said in a low voice: "Anyway, it's not possible."
"Master, look at me." Yin Tianchen raised his face, "Tell me, you don't want to marry me, does it have something to do with your father?"
Yan Zhiling was stunned, "What does it have to do with him?"
Yin Tianchen carefully observed his expression and realized that he was not lying, so he remained silent for a moment and did not press for further questions.
"Forget it," Yin Tianchen got up, "Since the master doesn't want to say it, I don't have to force others to make things difficult."
Yan Zhiling tugged on his sleeve nervously, afraid that he would say something decisive again.
But Yin Tianchen just pulled him up and said: "Master, isn't he going down the mountain? It's getting late, let's go quickly."
Yan Zhiling said: "Then you..."
Yin Tianchen smiled slightly and said, "The apprentice is naturally with the master."
Yan Zhiling breathed a sigh of relief.
"Actually," Yan Zhiling shook Yin Tianchen's hand, "as a teacher, in this life, besides you, there will never be any other apprentices."
【Ding!The degree of fate change is 65%, please continue to work hard, the host! 】
Is this... a disguised confession?
The corners of Yin Tianchen's mouth curled up slightly. Although he didn't know why Yan Zhiling insisted on refusing to become a Taoist partner with him, since he could be sure of the other party's intentions, he didn't need to worry about such a status.
Two people were ordered to go down the mountain.
Xunyang City mentioned in the mission is a small town located in the north of Jianzong. It would take at least a month for ordinary people to ride horses, but it would take a day for monks to use magic weapons.What is required to be handed over in the task is a low-level monster called a beast. This kind of monster is omnivorous and eats everything. Wherever they are everywhere, no grass will grow and livestock will suffer.There are many monks among the city lord's followers. They also went to settle the payment, but because they were outnumbered, they returned in a big defeat.
In desperation, the city lord of Xunyang had no choice but to entrust Tianfeng Jianzong with a high price.
For this kind of sale of tens of thousands of spirit stones, there are many disciples of Tianfeng Sword Sect, and they are usually assigned to the lowest-level disciples for practice.
Yan Zhiling chose this kind of task this time, obviously being lazy.
But at least he could drive his son out to exercise his muscles and bones, so Sect Master Tianfeng turned a blind eye.
The next afternoon, Yan Zhiling and Yin Tianchen arrived in Xunyang City.
The city lord was obviously looking forward to the arrival of Tianfeng Jianzong, and he brought a group of city officials and guards to greet him at the door early, and only held up the banner of "Welcome the leader".
Yan Zhiling and Yin Tianchen floated down from the magic weapon, one after the other, with an air of immortality.
The city lord immediately greeted him with a smile like a flower: "This must be the legendary Yan Zhenren, who has long admired his name."
Yin Tianchen: "..."
Yan Zhiling: "..."
Yin Tianchen pointed embarrassingly at Yan Zhiling, who was half a head shorter than him: "I'm sorry, City Lord Fang, this is Master Yan, and I'm just his apprentice."
"Hey?!" The city lord's eyes widened, and his eyes wandered between the tall and the short two people several times, before he said with a smile, "I'm sorry, my eyes are clumsy, and I didn't recognize the demeanor of Master Yan. Please forgive me."
Yan Zhiling replied coldly: "It doesn't matter."
The city owner thought he was angry, and immediately looked at Yin Tianchen for help.
Yin Tianchen gave him a comforting look.
Only then did the city lord caress his chest and secretly let out a breath.
Yan Zhiling and Yin Tianchen were respectfully welcomed to the City Lord's Mansion and arranged to live next to each other in the noble guest room.
"Are you satisfied with Yan Zhenren and Mo Zhenren?" The city lord rubbed his fat hands, stood at the door, and briefly introduced the situation in the mansion, "This is the servant I have prepared for the real person. If the real person has anything, just order it. .”
Yin Tianchen looked at the young and middle-aged men standing outside the house, and was speechless.
Yan Zhiling even pretended he didn't see it, and went straight in: "Where is the monster's lair?"
The city lord's smiling face paused slightly, and said, "Don't the real person plan to rest for a night first?"
Yan Zhiling said: "I thought you were in a hurry."
The city owner said: "I am very anxious, but no matter how anxious you are, you can't even give the real person a rest time."
Yin Tianchen smoothed things over and said: "The meaning of the master is to know the specific location of the monster's lair first, and then decide on the next plan after a thorough investigation, so as not to attack rashly and cause unnecessary casualties."
His words made the city lord feel sorry for him, recalling the tragic situation of those casual cultivators, the city lord immediately sent a map.
"This is the topographic map of the city." The city lord pointed to a forest in the southwest, "This should be the lair of the beasts."
Yin Tianchen said: "Should?"
The city owner said embarrassingly: "Because there are too many of them, and this place is known to be the most concentrated area so far, we guess this is their lair."
Yin Tianchen said: "That is to say, there will be beasts in other places in Xunyang City?"
The mayor said: "Yes."
Yin Tianchen said: "How many?"
"There are as few as one or two heads, and as many as dozens of heads. I don't know the details." The city lord smiled sheepishly, "After all, I am just an ordinary mortal. I really don’t dare to check it out myself.”
Yin Tianchen expressed his understanding.
The city lord took a sneaky look at Yan Zhiling, and said softly: "If Master Yan is going to investigate, I won't be able to accompany you."
Yin Tianchen: "..."
This city lord is really blatantly greedy for life and afraid of death.
Yan Zhiling never liked getting involved with strangers, and when the city lord finished explaining everything he had to say, he waved his hand and sent the people out, and all the so-called servants were locked out of the door.
"What's the master's plan?" Yin Tianchen asked straight to the point when there were only the two of them left in the room.
Yan Zhiling said: "There is no plan."
Yin Tianchen said: "Then you were anxious to know where the lair is?"
Yan Zhiling gave him a blank look, and said: "You said the plan. After the teacher originally planned to find their lair, he just took it all in one go."
Yin Tianchen said speechlessly: "Master, aren't you afraid of ending up like those casual cultivators?"
Yan Zhiling said unhappily: "How can those casual cultivators be compared with my teacher! Qian'er, your words are too sad for my teacher."
Yin Tianchen said: "But the Nascent Soul Stage is not omnipotent, it's better to be careful."
Yan Zhiling didn't respond.
Yin Tianchen continued: "Besides, the city lord just said that he is not sure that the southwestern part is the old nest of the beast." The beast is a group structure similar to bees and ants, and there must be a queen hidden in the deepest place responsible for breeding. Otherwise, it would not be possible to have such a flood in just a few months.
Xunyang City has no natural enemies for them, so if they want to solve it completely, they have to find out their beast queens and wipe them out in one fell swoop.
But now that you have the map, you can't go wrong if you go to check it out.
That night, Yan Zhiling took Yin Tianchen from the air.
If Yin Tianchen had known that he would see such a scene, he swore that he would never have dinner.
As we all know, although wild beasts are called beasts, they reproduce by eggs, and their shape is more like crustaceans. A litter can produce dozens of them, the incubation period is short, and the adults are as big as a palm.At this time, in the old forest in the southwest, wild beasts were crawling densely, almost all over the place, and the soil in the gaps could not be seen clearly at all.
The trees in the forest have already been eaten away by them, leaving only crumbling branches and willows.
I believe that if this bunch of disgusting guys are not dealt with, within a few months, this city will probably be gnawed away.
Yin Tianchen felt a little nauseous.
Even if he was like this, let alone Yan Zhiling's reaction.
Yan Zhiling directly covered his mouth, retched twice, and said with a pale face, "Let's go back first."
Yin Tianchen hugged him silently and returned to the City Lord's Mansion.
Along the way, he couldn't help but think that it's better not to mention the matter of finding the beasts. I'm afraid it would be a huge project to deal with the thousands of beast-eating beasts first.
After returning from the old forest in the southwest, Yan Zhiling lay down on the bed "weakly" and still grabbed Yin Tianchen's belt.
Yin Tianchen couldn't go back to the room, so he had to lie down beside him.
As soon as he lay down, Yan Zhiling rolled into his arms, as naturally as if they were supposed to be in this position.
Yin Tianchen patted his butt amusedly.
Yan Zhiling twisted, buried his face in his chest, and continued to try to drive the horrific picture out of his mind.
Yin Tianchen began to think about how to kill those beasts.
On the first day of clearing the eating beasts, Yin Tianchen tried to use fire, but the result was - failed!
As previously stated, the beast-eating beasts resemble crustaceans in appearance, that is to say, they all have a hard shell.Even if the real fire in the Nascent Soul stage could burn them to death instantly, when they reacted and gathered together, Yin Tianchen had nothing to do with the ones inside.Moreover, these beast-eating beasts that survived on the corpses of their companions would fly into the sky and attack him, coming from all directions. Fortunately, Yan Zhiling propped up the barrier in time, otherwise it would be disgusting to be attached to his body by these things even if he was not injured.
After the failure and returning, Yin Tianchen calculated the casualties of the beast... probably not more than two hundred.
A long way to go!
On the second day after clearing the eating beasts, Yin Tianchen tried to use the lightning strike technique, but the result was still - failure!
Lightning strikes are much more effective than fire attacks, but unfortunately, the damage is too great. When a strike of lightning strikes, all the beasts are killed, but those trees that are already in danger are also felled.Yin Tianchen was still counting on these poor trees to survive, so he couldn't bear to chop them after a few times, so as not to completely destroy the green ecology of Xunyang City.
But this time the effect was good, and half of the wild beasts in the old forest in the southwest died.
The city lord was full of praise for this, and repeatedly praised the monk Yuanying as awesome, so he prepared good wine, good food, and beautiful girls singing and dancing that night.
But neither Yin Tianchen nor Yan Zhiling had any appetite.
No way, bugs are too disgusting.
Because Yin Tianchen was still pretending to be a late-stage cultivation base, all the tricks that could only be used in the Nascent Soul stage were pushed on Yan Zhiling's head. For a while, Yan Zhiling's reputation was unrivaled in the city.
Only Yin Tianchen knew that Yan Zhiling's Nascent Soul cultivation base was similar to that of a modern exam-oriented academic bully. Without his cultivation base, he would be able to do nothing.Yin Tianchen was sure that if Yan Zhiling were to fight him now, Yan Zhiling would lose within ten moves.
After the lightning strike, Yin Tianchen rested for two days.
But he never expected that when they went to the Southwest Old Forest on the third day, the number of beast-eating beasts increased sharply again, almost catching up with the number when they first came!
However, Yin Tianchen carefully discovered that many of them were small larvae, apparently hatched in a hurry in an emergency, and hadn't grown up at all.
It seems that the mass death of the soldiers has affected the beast queen, and she started to fight back.
At this point, Yin Tianchen didn't care about the ecological environment of Xunyang City anymore. He directly used lightning strikes to raze the old forest in the southwest to the ground. As a result, the largest gathering place of wild beasts in the city disappeared.
Facing the corpses and tree trunks all over the ground, Yan Zhiling retched silently a few more times.
In the next few days, Yin Tianchen also dealt with those Lin San's beast eaters, making the city lord so happy that he held a big banquet that night, expressing that he would have a good celebration.
But Yin Tianchen was not as optimistic as he was. Although it only took half a month to complete the task, he still hadn't found the queen's lair so far.If he left right now, perhaps in a few months, Xunyang City would still be flooded with beasts.
Regarding this, Yan Zhiling also expressed the same concerns as Yin Tianchen: "We should stay for a few more days."
Yin Tianchen asked: "Master, do you have any thoughts on the whereabouts of the Queen of the Beast?"
Yan Zhiling shook his head: "I don't know, all I know is that they are disgusting and they smell like mud."
"Mud?" A flash of inspiration flashed in Yin Tianchen's mind, and he stood up abruptly from the couch.
Yan Zhiling, who was leaning on him, almost fell.
Yan Zhiling glared at him dissatisfied, but Yin Tianchen kissed him excitedly, turned and ran out of the room.
Yan Zhiling touched his lips in bewilderment, hesitated for a moment, but still followed, just in time to hear Yin Tianchen asking the city lord: "Excuse me, is there a swamp in the city?"
Although the city owner didn't understand his intention, he still replied: "Yes, there are, but not inside the city, but outside the city."
Yin Tianchen said: "Where is outside the city?"
The city lord said: "Outside the south gate, there is a swampy forest, did Mo Zhenren find any other problems?"
Yin Tianchen didn't answer him: "I'll report to the city lord after I come back."
After finishing speaking, he turned around and left, met Yan Zhiling who was coming along, and dragged him away.
Yan Zhiling was quite smart, and asked, "Do you think the Queen of the Beast is hiding in the swamp?"
Yin Tianchen said: "It's all thanks to Master. I was busy killing insects before, so I didn't notice the smell on them."
Yan Zhiling was a little shy by his praise, but he still tilted his head, his nostrils facing the sky, and said, "I'm also your master anyway, and it's only natural that I'm better than you!"
Yin Tianchen laughed: "Yes, yes, Master is the most powerful in the world."
Yan Zhiling hummed happily.
Just as Yin Tianchen guessed, the beast queen hid in the swamp outside the city. She was as big as two heads, and her whole body was submerged in the swamp, leaving only two tentacles outside for breathing and sensing .When Yin Tianchen attacked her, she let out an ear-piercing scream, but the attack power was very limited, and she was dealt with in three or two hits.
Turning over her body, Yin Tianchen discovered that there were many hatching beast eggs under her body, so he directly burned her with a fire.
At this point, the task is completely completed.
"Can we go back?" Yan Zhiling couldn't help urging while covering his nose after burning the remnant soldiers and defeating the generals.
Yin Tianchen also felt that the smell here was unpleasant, so he flew back to the city with Yan Zhiling without staying long, and officially handed in the task.
The city lord burst into a cold sweat when he heard that the swamp outside the city was the lair of the beasts.
He was deeply grateful for Yin Tianchen's rigorous approach, and expressed that in addition to the established rewards for the mission, he would also give some additional treasures to the two, but Yan Zhiling refused.
Just kidding, the things in Changqi Demon Lord's cave alone are enough for them to squander a lifetime, and Yan Zhiling, who is not as good as the others, doesn't like it.
In this regard, the city lord once again praised the noble character of the two real people, and sent them away with drums and gongs.
But after leaving Xunyang City, Yin Tianchen was not in a hurry to return to Jianzong.
"Is there anything else you want to go?" Yan Zhiling was puzzled.
"Not yet," Yin Tianchen said, "But I have also stayed in Jianzong for more than 20 years, Master, don't you think it's time for me to go out and practice?"
Yan Zhiling said: "I have been a teacher for almost 400 years and I haven't gone out a few times."
That's why the actual combat experience is so poor, Yin Tianchen complained silently.
"If the master is unwilling, you can go back to Jianzong first. After the apprentice finishes training outside, he will come back to find the master."
"No!" Yan Zhiling grabbed Yin Tianchen's arm, "You are not allowed to leave me as a teacher!"
Yin Tianchen laughed and said: "But Master can't ask me not to leave the sect for the rest of my life, right?"
Yan Zhiling lowered his head, his eyes rolled around, and his expression was very tangled. In the end, as if he had made some important decision, he said loudly: "Then it's better to be a teacher, and I will practice with you."
He compromised so quickly.
Yin Tianchen thought he was going to make a fuss again.
But it's better not to waste your time talking, Yin Tianchen didn't have a clear destination, he just didn't want to stay in Lingyan Peak to grow mushrooms, so he took Yan Zhiling wherever he went.If there is something delicious, stay for a few meals, and if there is something interesting, stay and watch two games. Compared with experience, they are more like a young couple traveling around.
In the past, every time Yan Zhiling went out, he was alone, which was extremely boring, so he tried to go back as soon as he finished his work, and never went out if he could.But this time getting along with Yin Tianchen made him suddenly realize that the life at the foot of the mountain is not as difficult as he imagined?No, not only is it not difficult, but it is also very happy!Much happier than being on the mountain!
【Ding!The degree of fate change is 70%, please continue to work hard, the host! 】
When they came to a big city, the two heard the news that an auction was being held in the city as soon as they entered the city gate.
In the world of comprehension, such auctions usually have huge forces behind them, otherwise they would have been robbed by evil-minded people just because they have so many treasures that monks flock to.
"Master, do you want to go and see?" Yin Tianchen was actually a little curious.
In the past, I only saw the description in the book, but I haven't personally witnessed what the auction looks like. Is it similar to the modern one?
Yan Zhiling glanced at him and said, "You can go if you want."
Yin Tianchen touched his head, very satisfied.
Under his tutelage, his little master has become more and more able to observe words and expressions.
Yan Zhiling, who was being shunned, opened his paws and said angrily, "Don't touch Master's head anymore! Master is your master!"
Yin Tianchen let out an apology, and apologized without sincerity: "It's really that the master's stature and appearance don't look like elders, I will pay more attention to it in the future."
Yan Zhiling's face turned red with anger.
He raised his foot and was about to step hard on Yin Tianchen's foot.
Yin Tianchen dodged easily.
Yan Zhiling stepped on the ground, feeling ashamed, and immediately became angry like a puffer fish.
However, Yin Tianchen liked the way he behaved when he was in a temper tantrum, looked left and right, no one was paying attention, and lowered his head to kiss his bulging cheek.
Yan Zhiling: "!!!"
Yan Zhiling's face turned even redder, but this time, it was from being ashamed.
Yin Tianchen took Yan Zhiling, who was about to be cooked by himself, to the auction. They didn't have an invitation letter, so they missed the VIP seat.But with their identities in the Nascent Soul stage, the staff led them to a relatively quiet private seat, separating them from other monks who were mixed with fish and dragons.
As soon as the two entered the arena, they immediately received the attention of everyone in the lobby.
There is no way, who made them both look so good-looking, and one of them has such a high level of cultivation—in fact, in the cultivation world, with the improvement of the realm, the appearance and temperament of the monks will also improve. Cultivators won't be too ugly, but those who are as outstanding as Yan Zhiling and Yin Tianchen are still rare.
There are inevitably lustful monks, and among the lustful people there are often a few who don't know how to live or die.
So, shortly after the two sat down, someone came up to talk.
The person who spoke was a casual cultivator in the late stage of Jindan, and his appearance was pretty. He was dressed in a light green robe, but he was mostly ruined by the wretched aura emanating from him.Yin Tianchen commented on him with just one glance—the aura is not upright, and he doesn't know how to restrain himself.
"I wonder if you mind sharing the table with me?" The monk in green looked at Yan Zhiling expectantly.
Yan Zhiling didn't even look at him, "You're blocking the auction table."
The monk in green smiled slightly, stepped aside, and continued to wait for Yan Zhiling's answer.
Yan Zhiling was watched for a while before he realized that he was talking to himself, and finally his eyes fell on him: "Who are you?"
Green monk: "..."
Yin Tianchen couldn't laugh or cry.
He looked helplessly at Yan Zhiling who was holding back his tears but still streaming down his face, sighed for a while, and opened his arms towards him.
Yan Zhiling immediately rushed into his arms like a swallow falling into a forest.
Yin Tianchen felt a little tight in his chest when he was hit.
"You are as bad as your father! Your father is a big liar, and you are a big liar too!" Yan Zhiling cried like a four-hundred-year-old child.
Yin Tianchen felt wronged: "When did I lie to you?"
Yan Zhiling: "You said you would stay with me forever!"
Yin Tianchen: "...I never said that."
Yan Zhiling: "You said you said you said you said you said woo woo woo woo—"
Yin Tianchen: "Okay, I said it."
Yan Zhiling: "If you don't mean what you say in the future, I, I will... take another good apprentice!"
Yin Tianchen stared: "How dare you!"
Yan Zhiling shrank his neck, nestled in his arms, and sniffled aggrievedly.
Yin Tianchen patted him on the back again and again, and when Yan Zhiling's body stopped shaking, he asked the previous question again: "Master, let me ask you for the last time, what do you think about the relationship between us?" relationship?"

"Master, look at me." Yin Tianchen raised his face, "Tell me, you don't want to marry me, does it have something to do with your father?"
Yan Zhiling was stunned, "What does it have to do with him?"
Yin Tianchen carefully observed his expression and realized that he was not lying, so he remained silent for a moment and did not press for further questions.

Even if he was like this, let alone Yan Zhiling's reaction.
Yan Zhiling directly covered his mouth, retched twice, and said with a pale face, "Let's go back first."
Yin Tianchen hugged him silently and returned to the City Lord's Mansion.
Along the way, he couldn't help but think that it's better not to mention the matter of finding the beasts. I'm afraid it would be a huge project to deal with the thousands of beast-eating beasts first.
After returning from the old forest in the southwest, Yan Zhiling lay down on the bed "weakly" and still grabbed Yin Tianchen's belt.
Yin Tianchen couldn't go back to the room, so he had to lie down beside him.
As soon as he lay down, Yan Zhiling rolled into his arms, as naturally as if they were supposed to be in this position.
Yin Tianchen patted his butt amusedly.
Yan Zhiling twisted, buried his face in his chest, and continued to try to drive the horrific picture out of his mind.
Yin Tianchen began to think about how to kill those beasts.
On the first day of clearing the eating beasts, Yin Tianchen tried to use fire, but the result was - failed!
As previously stated, the beast-eating beasts resemble crustaceans in appearance, that is to say, they all have a hard shell.Even if the real fire in the Nascent Soul stage could burn them to death instantly, when they reacted and gathered together, Yin Tianchen had nothing to do with the ones inside.Moreover, these beast-eating beasts that survived on the corpses of their companions would fly into the sky and attack him, coming from all directions. Fortunately, Yan Zhiling propped up the barrier in time, otherwise it would be disgusting to be attached to his body by these things even if he was not injured.
After the failure and returning, Yin Tianchen calculated the casualties of the beast... probably not more than two hundred.
A long way to go!
On the second day after clearing the eating beasts, Yin Tianchen tried to use the lightning strike technique, but the result was still - failure!
Lightning strikes are much more effective than fire attacks, but unfortunately, the damage is too great. When a strike of lightning strikes, all the beasts are killed, but those trees that are already in danger are also felled.Yin Tianchen was still counting on these poor trees to survive, so he couldn't bear to chop them after a few times, so as not to completely destroy the green ecology of Xunyang City.
But this time the effect was good, and half of the wild beasts in the old forest in the southwest died.
The city lord was full of praise for this, and repeatedly praised the monk Yuanying as awesome, so he prepared good wine, good food, and beautiful girls singing and dancing that night.
But neither Yin Tianchen nor Yan Zhiling had any appetite.
No way, bugs are too disgusting.
Because Yin Tianchen was still pretending to be a late-stage cultivation base, all the tricks that could only be used in the Nascent Soul stage were pushed on Yan Zhiling's head. For a while, Yan Zhiling's reputation was unrivaled in the city.
Only Yin Tianchen knew that Yan Zhiling's Nascent Soul cultivation base was similar to that of a modern exam-oriented academic bully. Without his cultivation base, he would be able to do nothing.Yin Tianchen was sure that if Yan Zhiling were to fight him now, Yan Zhiling would lose within ten moves.
After the lightning strike, Yin Tianchen rested for two days.
But he never expected that when they went to the Southwest Old Forest on the third day, the number of beast-eating beasts increased sharply again, almost catching up with the number when they first came!
However, Yin Tianchen carefully discovered that many of them were small larvae, apparently hatched in a hurry in an emergency, and hadn't grown up at all.
It seems that the mass death of the soldiers has affected the beast queen, and she started to fight back.
At this point, Yin Tianchen didn't care about the ecological environment of Xunyang City anymore. He directly used lightning strikes to raze the old forest in the southwest to the ground. As a result, the largest gathering place of wild beasts in the city disappeared.
Facing the corpses and tree trunks all over the ground, Yan Zhiling retched silently a few more times.
In the next few days, Yin Tianchen also dealt with those Lin San's beast eaters, making the city lord so happy that he held a big banquet that night, expressing that he would have a good celebration.
But Yin Tianchen was not as optimistic as he was. Although it only took half a month to complete the task, he still hadn't found the queen's lair so far.If he left right now, perhaps in a few months, Xunyang City would still be flooded with beasts.
Regarding this, Yan Zhiling also expressed the same concerns as Yin Tianchen: "We should stay for a few more days."
Yin Tianchen asked: "Master, do you have any thoughts on the whereabouts of the Queen of the Beast?"
Yan Zhiling shook his head: "I don't know, all I know is that they are disgusting and they smell like mud."
"Mud?" A flash of inspiration flashed in Yin Tianchen's mind, and he stood up abruptly from the couch.
Yan Zhiling, who was leaning on him, almost fell.
Yan Zhiling glared at him dissatisfied, but Yin Tianchen kissed him excitedly, turned and ran out of the room.
Yan Zhiling touched his lips in bewilderment, hesitated for a moment, but still followed, just in time to hear Yin Tianchen asking the city lord: "Excuse me, is there a swamp in the city?"
Although the city owner didn't understand his intention, he still replied: "Yes, there are, but not inside the city, but outside the city."
Yin Tianchen said: "Where is outside the city?"
The city lord said: "Outside the south gate, there is a swampy forest, did Mo Zhenren find any other problems?"
Yin Tianchen didn't answer him: "I'll report to the city lord after I come back."
After finishing speaking, he turned around and left, met Yan Zhiling who was coming along, and dragged him away.
Yan Zhiling was quite smart, and asked, "Do you think the Queen of the Beast is hiding in the swamp?"
Yin Tianchen said: "It's all thanks to Master. I was busy killing insects before, so I didn't notice the smell on them."
Yan Zhiling was a little shy by his praise, but he still tilted his head, his nostrils facing the sky, and said, "I'm also your master anyway, and it's only natural that I'm better than you!"
Yin Tianchen laughed: "Yes, yes, Master is the most powerful in the world."
Yan Zhiling hummed happily.
Just as Yin Tianchen guessed, the beast queen hid in the swamp outside the city. She was as big as two heads, and her whole body was submerged in the swamp, leaving only two tentacles outside for breathing and sensing .When Yin Tianchen attacked her, she let out an ear-piercing scream, but the attack power was very limited, and she was dealt with in three or two hits.
Turning over her body, Yin Tianchen discovered that there were many hatching beast eggs under her body, so he directly burned her with a fire.
At this point, the task is completely completed.
"Can we go back?" Yan Zhiling couldn't help urging while covering his nose after burning the remnant soldiers and defeating the generals.
Yin Tianchen also felt that the smell here was unpleasant, so he flew back to the city with Yan Zhiling without staying long, and officially handed in the task.
The city lord burst into a cold sweat when he heard that the swamp outside the city was the lair of the beasts.
He was deeply grateful for Yin Tianchen's rigorous approach, and expressed that in addition to the established rewards for the mission, he would also give some additional treasures to the two, but Yan Zhiling refused.
Just kidding, the things in Changqi Demon Lord's cave alone are enough for them to squander a lifetime, and Yan Zhiling, who is not as good as the others, doesn't like it.
In this regard, the city lord once again praised the noble character of the two real people, and sent them away with drums and gongs.
But after leaving Xunyang City, Yin Tianchen was not in a hurry to return to Jianzong.
"Is there anything else you want to go?" Yan Zhiling was puzzled.
"Not yet," Yin Tianchen said, "But I have also stayed in Jianzong for more than 20 years, Master, don't you think it's time for me to go out and practice?"
Yan Zhiling said: "I have been a teacher for almost 400 years and I haven't gone out a few times."
That's why the actual combat experience is so poor, Yin Tianchen complained silently.
"If the master is unwilling, you can go back to Jianzong first. After the apprentice finishes training outside, he will come back to find the master."
"No!" Yan Zhiling grabbed Yin Tianchen's arm, "You are not allowed to leave me as a teacher!"
Yin Tianchen laughed and said: "But Master can't ask me not to leave the sect for the rest of my life, right?"
Yan Zhiling lowered his head, his eyes rolled around, and his expression was very tangled. In the end, as if he had made some important decision, he said loudly: "Then it's better to be a teacher, and I will practice with you."
He compromised so quickly.
Yin Tianchen thought he was going to make a fuss again.
But it's better not to waste your time talking, Yin Tianchen didn't have a clear destination, he just didn't want to stay in Lingyan Peak to grow mushrooms, so he took Yan Zhiling wherever he went.If there is something delicious, stay for a few meals, and if there is something interesting, stay and watch two games. Compared with experience, they are more like a young couple traveling around.
In the past, every time Yan Zhiling went out, he was alone, which was extremely boring, so he tried to go back as soon as he finished his work, and never went out if he could.But this time getting along with Yin Tianchen made him suddenly realize that the life at the foot of the mountain is not as difficult as he imagined?No, not only is it not difficult, but it is also very happy!Much happier than being on the mountain!
【Ding!The degree of fate change is 70%, please continue to work hard, the host! 】
When they came to a big city, the two heard the news that an auction was being held in the city as soon as they entered the city gate.
In the world of comprehension, such auctions usually have huge forces behind them, otherwise they would have been robbed by evil-minded people just because they have so many treasures that monks flock to.
"Master, do you want to go and see?" Yin Tianchen was actually a little curious.
In the past, I only saw the description in the book, but I haven't personally witnessed what the auction looks like. Is it similar to the modern one?
Yan Zhiling glanced at him and said, "You can go if you want."
Yin Tianchen touched his head, very satisfied.
Under his tutelage, his little master has become more and more able to observe words and expressions.
Yan Zhiling, who was being shunned, opened his paws and said angrily, "Don't touch Master's head anymore! Master is your master!"
Yin Tianchen let out an apology, and apologized without sincerity: "It's really that the master's stature and appearance don't look like elders, I will pay more attention to it in the future."
Yan Zhiling's face turned red with anger.
He raised his foot and was about to step hard on Yin Tianchen's foot.
Yin Tianchen dodged easily.
Yan Zhiling stepped on the ground, feeling ashamed, and immediately became angry like a puffer fish.
However, Yin Tianchen liked the way he behaved when he was in a temper tantrum, looked left and right, no one was paying attention, and lowered his head to kiss his bulging cheek.
Yan Zhiling: "!!!"
Yan Zhiling's face turned even redder, but this time, it was from being ashamed.
Yin Tianchen took Yan Zhiling, who was about to be cooked by himself, to the auction. They didn't have an invitation letter, so they missed the VIP seat.But with their identities in the Nascent Soul stage, the staff led them to a relatively quiet private seat, separating them from other monks who were mixed with fish and dragons.
As soon as the two entered the arena, they immediately received the attention of everyone in the lobby.
There is no way, who made them both look so good-looking, and one of them has such a high level of cultivation—in fact, in the cultivation world, with the improvement of the realm, the appearance and temperament of the monks will also improve. Cultivators won't be too ugly, but those who are as outstanding as Yan Zhiling and Yin Tianchen are still rare.
There are inevitably lustful monks, and among the lustful people there are often a few who don't know how to live or die.
So, shortly after the two sat down, someone came up to talk.
The person who spoke was a casual cultivator in the late stage of Jindan, and his appearance was pretty. He was dressed in a light green robe, but he was mostly ruined by the wretched aura emanating from him.Yin Tianchen commented on him with just one glance—the aura is not upright, and he doesn't know how to restrain himself.
"I wonder if you mind sharing the table with me?" The monk in green looked at Yan Zhiling expectantly.
Yan Zhiling didn't even look at him, "You're blocking the auction table."
The monk in green smiled slightly, stepped aside, and continued to wait for Yan Zhiling's answer.
Yan Zhiling was watched for a while before he realized that he was talking to himself, and finally his eyes fell on him: "Who are you?"
Green monk: "..."
