After listening to Taoist Duoling's story, Taoist Evil Sword and Taoist Black Bone said angrily: "It's too much to bully others."

The Evil Sword Taoist said: "Who doesn't know that the three of us are the Three Cross Friends? Now that we are older, this Taoist from the Five Directions who came out of any corner dares to bully us!"

The black-bone Taoist said: "Yes, we must teach him a lesson!"

Taoist Duoling hesitated and said, "But my cultivation is only in the early stage of Dan Condensation. It is said that Taoist Wufang is in the late stage of Dan Condensation. I'd better bear with it."

"No!" Taoist Xie Dao objected, "If he dares to bully your Duoling Sect today, he will come to my Xie Dao Sect tomorrow. My cultivation level is already in the middle stage of the Condensing Core Realm. How can the three of us be afraid of him if we join forces!"

The Black Bone Taoist nodded and said: "Yes, the three of us can definitely defeat him together. Besides, the evil sword still has his evil sword formation. Even if he is really in the late stage of the Condensation Realm, he cannot escape the suppression of the evil sword formation!"

When Patriarch Duoling heard this, his face turned red and glowed, and he immediately said: "Thank you two old friends!"

Taoist Evil Sword waved his hand and said: "No need to be polite, bullying you is bullying both of us!"

…

Another day.

In winter, the sky is clear, the sky is blue, the day is bright, there is no wind, and the warm sun falls on the body, which is very comfortable.

"Senior brother, Senior Sister has sent a message." Li Kui walked towards Chen Ke who was sitting in the warmth at the door of the hall steps and said respectfully.

When Chen Ke heard that it was Ye Mingyue, he immediately became energetic and asked, "She wants to see me?"

"No, senior sister asked you to lead a team to the town below the mountain to buy supplies." Li Kui looked embarrassed.

This kind of trivial matter was originally done by a random handyman disciple, but who knew that Ye Mingyue actually asked Chen Ke, the master of the palace, to do it. This was to deliberately bully Chen Ke.

After hearing this, Chen Ke said: "Okay, let's go."

"Senior brother, the senior sister is deliberately suppressing you." Li Kui said with some dissatisfaction, "Everyone knows that purchasing supplies is originally a matter for the handyman disciples."

Chen Ke smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, I just happened to go to the foot of the mountain for a walk."

Chen Ke thought there might be danger, so he went back and carried his bamboo basket, which also contained the Xuanxuan sword given by Xuanxuan. There were also various long and broken swords owned by Chen Ke, all available.

Arriving at the team of handyman disciples buying supplies, Chen Ke took Li Kui down the mountain. Li Kui was a master in the late stages of Qi refining, and with him around, Chen Ke could rest assured.

A group of more than a dozen people went down the mountain to the town outside the mountain. The journey was not far, but the mountain road was difficult to walk.

On the roof of the first hall, Ye Mingyue was dressed in black, like an independent fairy, looking at Chen Ke who was going down the mountain.

"I'll let you wander around and arrange something for you to do."

A smile appeared on Ye Mingyue's cold face. If the begonia flowers bloomed, no one could see it at this moment.

Chen Ke led the team down the mountain. He said he was leading the team, but in fact the team was leading him. However, these handyman disciples were also very clever and praised Chen Ke in various ways along the way, which made Chen Ke almost confused.

"No wonder everyone likes to fall. This kind of life is so wonderful." Chen Ke sat on a bamboo chair carried by two strong disciples and said to Li Kui leisurely with his legs crossed.

"They are lucky to be able to serve their senior brother. No matter how many people ask for it, they can't get it!" Li Kui said seriously.

Chen Ke glanced at Li Kui and said, "You have great potential, I am optimistic about you."

"Thank you, senior brother, for your appreciation."

Li Kui said gratefully that if he could be appreciated by Chen Ke and he would remember it in his heart, he would definitely have more power in the Lingkong Mountain Association in the future!

People from Lingkong Mountain came to the foot of the mountain to buy supplies.

Chen Ke took Li Kui around the town. He had been to the town once. Although it was not big, it was full of pavilions.

It may also be that there are often practitioners coming and going around, and everyone here is very energetic.

"Candied Haw Lu..."

"Glutinous rice cake, sweet and fragrant glutinous rice cake."

Chen Ke looked at the snacks on the roadside. He thought about it, took out two taels of silver from the bamboo basket, and walked towards the small vendor.

"Boss, give me two bunches of candied haws."

"Boss, here are two packages of glutinous rice cakes."

"Two skewers of fried gluten, make it spicy!"

Chen Ke bought these snacks one by one and stuffed them all into his bamboo basket. Li Kui wanted to help Chen Ke carry them, but Chen Ke refused. This weight did not require Li Kui's help.

"What are so many people in front doing?" Chen Ke looked forward.

In front of them, at the crossroads of the town, a group of people gathered together, seemingly watching something lively.

"Go over and take a look?" Li Kui asked.

"Let's go." Chen Ke squeezed in with Li Kui and saw a reward posted on the wall.

Chen Ke discovered that this was not an ordinary reward, but a reward posted by a practitioner. It said that there was a demon in a river not far from the town, and he needed urgent help to deal with the demon in the river.

"This reward is really stingy, and they don't even write how much it will cost." Chen Ke said.

Li Kui said: "Brother, I don't know something. When practitioners invite people to eliminate demons together, no one will ask for money. Generally, the demons are killed, and everyone takes the flesh, flesh, fur, and bone elixirs from the demon's body as trophies."

"So cruel!" Chen Ke said, "It's better to just kill him and eat the meat."

Upon hearing this, Li Kui felt that Chen Ke was more cruel. Killing and eating meat would be worse than refining the flesh and blood of the demon.

"Brother, we have purchased the supplies. Should we go back now or tomorrow?" A handyman disciple from Lingkong Mountain came over to report.

Li Kui approached Chen Ke and whispered: "Senior brother, according to the previous customs, we will come back tomorrow."

Chen Ke said: "Tomorrow, we can return to the mountain gate before dark on this road, why should we go back tomorrow?"

Li Kui said: "Senior brother, I don't know something. Many of these purchasing disciples have settled down at the foot of the mountain. They cannot come back for ten and a half days. They can only go down the mountain until the purchasing time, so they will stay at the foot of the mountain overnight after coming down."

"That's true, can I ask them to return to the mountain gate immediately?" Chen Ke asked.

The disciple who reported the report felt uneasy, but he still said obediently: "Senior brother is a true disciple, and we must all obey his orders. If senior brother returns today, I will notify them to assemble."

After hearing this, Chen Ke said: "Then... let's go back tomorrow."

"Thank you, senior brother." The face of the disciple who reported the report showed joy. He also settled down at the foot of the mountain. He had no hope of cultivating Taoism, but he could still be a powerful person in the world with his spiritual power.

Li Kui couldn't understand Chen Ke. He clearly felt that Chen Ke wanted to show off his power as the Lord of the Fifth Palace and give these handyman disciples a show of strength. However, he followed the customary rules and asked these handyman disciples to show off.

Stay at the foot of the mountain.

"What are you looking at? Let's go."

Chen Ke walked back to his original place with his head held high. As a practicing sect, Lingkong Mountain had its own station at the foot of the mountain.

It was a simple courtyard courtyard. Chen Ke pushed the door open and entered. He looked at the environment and found that there were generally no precious furnishings.

"Just rest here for the night. If you have a home down the mountain, you can go there yourself and don't worry about me."

Chen Ke has reached the realm of Qi refining and is very confident in himself.

Li Kui said: "This disciple has no family, so he will always be by your side, senior brother."

Chen Ke smiled slightly and said: "Haha, you're too polite. This is not a mountain, so you don't need to be so careful."

However, Li Kui did not dare to leave. The previous leader of the fifth hall ran away to play, but was drained of essence by a demon. All the guarding disciples of the fifth hall at that time were killed. Li Kui was a reserve handyman.

A newly selected guard disciple of the Fifth Hall among the disciples.

If something goes wrong with Chen Ke at the foot of the mountain, Li Kui, the personal guard disciple of the Fifth Hall, will be the first to be killed!

Chen Ke didn't care about Li Kui anymore. He could do whatever he wanted. Chen Ke practiced by himself in his room.

It's just that the glutinous rice cakes can't be brought back to the senior sister. The snacks Chen Ke bought are small gifts prepared for Ye Mingyue. I don't know if Ye Mingyue likes them, but Chen Ke bought a lot.

Chen Ke felt that there was always one snack that Ye Mingyue liked.

The moonlight in the middle of the night was just a crescent moon in the first half of the night. After practicing, Chen Ke exhaled a breath of turbid air and walked out of the room.

After pushing open the door, Li Kui stood under the eaves of the building nearby, helping Chen Ke protect the road.

"Didn't you go to rest?" Chen Ke asked.

When he was in the mountains, Li Kui usually guarded the first half of the night and the morning, half a day on duty and half a day off. After leaving the mountains, Li Kui didn't rest for the whole day.

Li Kui said: "Senior brother, I am a practitioner. Normally, staying awake for six or seven days will not have any impact."

"Go for a walk?" Chen Ke looked at the beautiful night and said in a good mood.

"Yes." Li Kui responded.

Chen Ke went back to the house, carried his bamboo basket on his back, and took Li Kui out of the yard. There were several handyman disciples beside the yard. They were the people Ye Mingyue specially ordered to protect Chen Ke.

Seeing Chen Ke walking out and heading towards the street, several people followed him, leaving a handyman disciple behind to guard the supplies in the yard.

The town is also quite lively at night, especially on both sides of the central intersection, rows of lanterns are lit, illuminating the road.

Several men in smart clothes walked over from the opposite side. When they saw Chen Ke leading a few people shopping unscrupulously on the street, they immediately stepped forward and wanted to talk.

Upon seeing this, Li Kui immediately stood in front of Chen Ke, with the sword in his hand raised: "What do these friends want to do!"

Among the people opposite, a middle-aged man said: "Fellow Taoists, we are invited to participate in the fishing conference. Don't know where to gather?"

"What fishing conference? You have found the wrong person." Li Kui said calmly.

"Didn't you send the invitation here?" the middle-aged man asked in confusion.

He saw that Chen Ke and others had spiritual energy fluctuations on their bodies, and thought that the news about the list to catch monsters was released by Chen Ke and others.

Li Kui said: "It's not us. What you are looking for is the person who caught the monster. You have mistaken the person."

Only then did the middle-aged man realize that he had found the wrong person, but when he saw that Chen Ke and the others were not weak in aura, and only Chen Ke, who was being protected in the middle, was in the early stages of Qi training, he thought for a while and said: "Guys, how about meeting each other?"

We met by chance, since we met, why don’t we join the fishing competition together!”
