When he saw Shi Wanli, PEI Ling was about to greet him, but he immediately realized that Shi Wanli’s expression was not right!
The other party seemed to be standing there casually, but his eyes were filled with vigilance as if he was on guard against something.
Seeing this, PEI Ling’s heart sank. Could it be that his identity had been exposed?
“Master Wang!” Seeing PEI Ling come out, Shi Wanli’s face instantly changed into a smiling face as he hurriedly came forward to welcome him, ” city Lord Yuchi has already agreed to specially arrange for Grandmaster to be teleported to Chao Phraya city. However, considering Grandmaster’s high status, many devil cultivators have infiltrated our Empire with ill intentions during the pill debate ceremony.”
“For safety’s sake, the Yuchi city’s Governor has specially ordered people to inspect the teleportation formation to prevent any accidents from happening.”
“This action will delay Grandmaster’s journey for a day. In order to express his apology, the city Lord has specially set up a banquet in the mansion and would like to invite Grandmaster to come and apologize in person.”
Without waiting for PEI Ling’s reply, he immediately took out a picture scroll and handed it over.
PEI Ling didn’t understand what he meant and took a look. In the painting, there was a young cultivator with a cold temperament. This was his original appearance!
On the top of the portrait were the words ‘wanted order’!
The moment he saw the wanted order, PEI Ling’s hand trembled slightly and he almost subconsciously used the [ blood ghost escape technique ] to escape. Fortunately, he reacted in time and immediately asked calmly, ” “Tower master Shi, who is this?”
Shi Wanli revealed a sullen expression and said,”Hmph!” This is a bold and evil devil cultivator!”
“You actually dare to cause trouble in the city Lord’s mansion in broad daylight!”
“This is a challenge to our dynasty!”
&Quot; now, all the defensive formations of bamboo city have been activated. All the city gates are open to entry but not exit. &Quot;
“The Yuchi city’s Governor has already said that within three days, we must take this puppet’s head!”
At this point, his tone slowed down and he said earnestly, ” master, demonic cultivators have always been vicious and ruthless. This demonic cultivator is only at the foundation establishment realm, but he dared to sneak into our dynasty to cause trouble. It’s clear that he’s extremely evil! However, Grandmaster has already entered our Empire’s borders. His safety is our responsibility.”
“Don’t worry, master. I’ll follow you closely and ensure your safety ...”
Hearing this, PEI Ling’s expression stiffened slightly. He coughed dryly and said, ” “I see, thank you for your trouble, tower master Shi. By the way, the banquet in the city Lord’s mansion, I wonder when we’ll leave? I want to change my clothes before leaving.”
Shi Wanli hurriedly said,”the city Lord’s mansion is always waiting for you, master. Please do as you please!.”
As he watched PEI Ling leave, he did not miss the moment when PEI Ling’s expression was unnatural, but he did not suspect anything.
After all, this master came from the million fathoms sea!
As for the Zhong gang sect, one of the four great sects of the demonic path, it could be said that everyone knew about the havoc caused by the supervisory division Hall master’s personal visit to the ten thousand fathoms sea ten years ago for the sake of the outer sect’s genius, han sigu.
It was obvious that Grandmaster Wang Gao would not dare to voice his anger towards the devil cultivators. In fact, he might even be trembling in fear like the city Lord’s wife and brother.
Otherwise, the other party wouldn’t have revealed such an unusual reaction after hearing that he was a devil cultivator despite trying his best to conceal it.
Under such circumstances, letting him know that a devil cultivator had barged into the city Lord’s mansion and promising protection from the dynasty would obviously greatly increase the chances of this master staying in the dynasty after the pill discussion ceremony.
At the same time, it would also increase the other party’s favorable impression of him!
His future was stable!
At this moment, PEI Ling, who was treated as a guarantee for his promotion by Shi Wanli, hurriedly returned to the guest house. After checking that there were no problems in the surroundings, he changed into the fifth-grade Alchemist robe.
After that, just in case, he took out poison pills and swallowed ten of them with different potions in one go. He also took the corresponding anti-poison pills. He wrapped these pills with true essence and saber intent, not letting the medicinal power dissolve in his body.
After finishing this series of preparations, PEI Ling composed himself and walked out.
???
In the main hall of the city Lord’s mansion.
As the host and guest had not arrived, everyone had not moved to the side hall where the banquet was set up. However, at this moment, the spacious main hall was already filled with people.
Caiyi maidservants shuttled back and forth, serving tea and all kinds of fruits and pastries.
The city Lord Yuchi Kedi sat on the main seat. Many of the leading figures in the city had already arrived.
The three students of the Jade Qilin Academy, Gu Nanxun, Xin Yuhan, and he zhuzhi, were also sitting upright at the lower seats.
Originally, with their qualifications and age, even if they were of noble birth and were students of the Jade Qilin Academy, they were not qualified to attend this kind of occasion.
However, Gu Nanxun’s master had a very important position in pill Dao.
In addition, Shi Wanli was also a student of the Jade Qilin Academy and was the senior brother of the three. Therefore, in order to repay Shi Wanli’s kindness, Yuchi Kexin gave him an opportunity to build a relationship with a fifth-grade Alchemist. He also specially sent them an invitation.
However, even though they were here, the three of them did not have the chance to speak at all. They could only sit upright and listen to the many seniors ‘prattling.
&Quot; demonic cultivators are extremely vicious and inhumane. It’s one thing for them to wreak havoc in their nests, but now they’ve come to our court to act atrociously. This is simply preposterous! &Quot;
“Not bad! These demonic Dao thieves should be killed!”
&Quot; the pill debate ceremony is still in the middle of the selection, and he actually dares to cause trouble in the city Lord’s mansion. He’s simply unscrupulous! &Quot;
“There’s no need to think about it. This demon must have come from the Wu Shi villa. Although the four great demon sects are not good things, the Wu Shi villa is the most unpredictable! I heard that not long ago, a disciple of su zhentian was killed in the ten thousand fathoms sea, and it was also done by the Wu Shi villa.”
“Right now, su zhentian is searching for evidence everywhere to seek justice for me.”
“Wu Shi villa ... Hmph! Su zhentian’s disciple had died in the ten thousand fathoms sea, and the evidence had probably been destroyed. But this incident happened in bamboo city, and the evidence was irrefutable. Our dynasty is not to be bullied! After this matter is reported, His Majesty and the other Lords will definitely come out personally to ask for an explanation from the Wu Shi villa!”
“That should be the case! The Wu Shi villa is known as the number one sect of the demonic path. Over the years, they have done countless tragic things. In the long run, the demonic path is arrogant and they look down on the righteous path more and more. It is very unfavorable to the stability of our dynasty!”
“We have to teach them a lesson!”
At this moment, everyone already knew what had happened to the city Lord’s wife, and they were all excited.
Even Xue Rufei, who didn’t like the Yan siblings, was furious.
No matter what, Yan qinlang was still the city Lord’s wife. To be almost cooked by a fiendish cultivator in front of everyone was a blatant insult to dynasty!
This devil cultivator must die!
At this moment, Yuchi kechuang spoke in a deep voice, ” &Quot; it wasn’t easy for our bamboo city to produce a fifth-grade Alchemist at this pill discussion ceremony. After we settle this Grandmaster down, I will personally take action to arrest the devil cultivator! &Quot;
When they heard the city Lord mention a fifth grade Alchemist, everyone’s spirits immediately rose.
The main purpose of the people who came to the banquet tonight was to meet this newly promoted fifth grade Alchemist!
An alchemy Grandmaster who could steadily refine Supreme grade pills, even if everyone present had a considerable status and power, no one would complain about their wide network. If they could make friends with a Tier 5 Alchemist, they would naturally not miss the opportunity.
However, other than he Wufu and a few others who had personally witnessed Master Wang Gao open the furnace to refine pills, most of the guests were unfamiliar with the name Wang Gao.
In particular, they heard that this person was a rogue cultivator from the infinite sea ... Although the infinite sea had produced alchemists before, it was really suspicious that a fifth-grade Alchemist with such skills was not famous.
In the past few years, the glaze avaricious dynasty had recruited talents from all over the world and treated them well. It was not as if there had not been cases of itinerant cultivators from outside the borders trying to cheat the dynasty of their generous rewards.
Considering this point, even though he knew that Yuchi Kexin and he Wufu wouldn’t speak carelessly about such a big matter, a blue-robed old man in the crowd still muttered to himself for a moment before asking, ” “Master Xue, that Wang Gao’s alchemy skills, has he really reached the standard of a fifth grade Alchemist?”
