Three days passed in the blink of an eye. Everyone packed up their bags and gathered at the mountain gate.
When Chu Jianqiu arrived at the mountain gate, almost everyone had arrived.
In addition to acquaintances such as Chu Jianqiu, Du Hanyan, Lu Xiangdi, Duan Muqing, and Tang Tianlei, there were also several unfamiliar disciples such as Du Ling and Bei Wenbai who participated in this mission.
Among those unfamiliar disciples, Du Ling and Bei Wenbai were among the top 100 disciples on the inner sect list. The other few were also disciples. Although they were not as high on the inner sect list as Du Ling and Bei Wenbo, they were still among the top 100 disciples.
They are all the top five hundred disciples on the inner sect list.
There are a total of fourteen or five of these people, and the lineup is quite large.
When Du Ling saw Chu Jianqiu arriving, she immediately frowned and said to Chu Jianqiu with a slightly cold expression: "Who are you and what are you doing here?"
When she saw that Chu Jianqiu was only a warrior at the fourth level of the Yuan Dan Realm, she couldn't help but feel contempt in her heart. A small warrior at the fourth level of the Yuan Dan Realm was worthy of being with them.
Du Ling has been in seclusion for the past year and is not clear about recent events in the inner sect. Therefore, she does not know the name of Chu Jianqiu in the inner sect. Therefore, she met Chu Jianqiu, a mere fourth-level Yuan Dan realm.
When their disciples also wanted to participate in their operation, they couldn't help but feel very unhappy.
Chu Jianqiu was slightly startled. Could it be that Du Ling didn't know about her participation in this mission?
Before he could say anything, Du Hanyan quickly explained: "Sister-in-law, this is Chu Jianqiu, a friend I mentioned to you before, who also participated in this mission together."
Du Ling is also a member of the royal family of Xuanlan Kingdom. In terms of seniority, she is Du Hanyan's sister-in-law. However, although she is much older than Du Hanyan, she is a Taoist after all, and it is difficult to tell the age from her appearance.
Although Du Ling is hundreds of years old, she still looks like she is twenty-two or thirty years old. She is somewhat similar to Du Hanyan in appearance, and her appearance is very good.
When Du Ling heard this, she immediately frowned and said, "You are new to the world and don't understand the sinister nature of people's hearts. Don't be fooled by other people's sweet words."
Du Hanyan once praised this Chu Jianqiu in front of her, praising this young man as unparalleled in the world. She thought Chu Jianqiu was a master of the ninth level of the Yuan Dan Realm, but who knew that after meeting, he turned out to be just a mere Yuan Dan Realm master?
A fourth-level warrior, this made Du Ling greatly disappointed.
At this time, in Du Ling's mind, she already regarded Chu Jianqiu as a flamboyant disciple. Otherwise, with Du Hanyan's qualifications, how could she regard this person whose cultivation level was two levels lower than hers?
Heavy boy.
It must be Chu Jianqiu who deceived Du Hanyan into losing his mind by some despicable means, which made Du Hanyan favor him so much.
Chu Jianqiu was speechless for a while. This was being despised again. However, he was too lazy to argue with this kind of thing. This kind of thing happened not once or twice.
But Du Hanyan was very anxious when she heard Du Ling's words. She was afraid that there would be some misunderstanding between her sister-in-law and Chu Jianqiu, which would be bad, so she hurriedly defended Chu Jianqiu.
However, Du Ling had a preconceived prejudice against Chu Jianqiu. At this time, she could not listen to Du Hanyan's explanation. She waved her hands impatiently and said, "Okay, don't say it anymore. Wait until you have some experience."
When you do this, you will naturally see clearly the human heart of some people.”
When Du Hanyan saw that Du Ling couldn't listen to her explanation, she was so anxious that she almost burst into tears. She wanted to continue to defend, but at this time Chu Jianqiu tugged on her sleeve and signaled her not to say any more.
Du Hanyan couldn't help but look at Chu Jianqiu apologetically. She didn't expect that Du Ling would have such a big prejudice against Chu Jianqiu. Her original intention was to be good for Chu Jianqiu, but she didn't expect that it would cause Chu Jianqiu to be so wronged.
.
Chu Jianqiu smiled slightly and said that he didn't care.
Du Ling has nothing to do with him. Chu Jianqiu doesn't care what she thinks of him.
Bei Wenbai had just returned from traveling outside and did not know the details of Chu Jianqiu. Therefore, in his mind, his view of Chu Jianqiu was similar to that of Du Ling, thinking that Chu Jianqiu was just a professional.
The man who uses tricks has great contempt for Chu Jianqiu in his heart.
As for the other inner sect disciples, they knew the details of Chu Jianqiu very well. After all, Chu Jianqiu's name was throughout the inner sect, and the battle between him and Dong Guo Leng not long ago was well known to everyone.
How could he not know Chu Jianqiu's strength?
It's just that these people were once tricked by Chu Jianqiu in the Inner Sect Battle Arena. Seeing Chu Jianqiu defeated, they felt very happy in their hearts, so how could they speak out to support Chu Jianqiu.
Chu Jianqiu glanced at these guys who were gloating about their misfortune, and secretly made a note of these people in his little notebook.
These people were no strangers to Chu Jianqiu. They were all veteran gamblers in the Neimen Bang Arena. Among them was Yang Ze, a regular customer from the Neimen Bang Arena, who was called Brother Yang by others.
Yang Ze ranks 153 on the inner sect rankings, but this ranking was from a year ago.
Since Yang Ze lost a large amount of money in a challenge in the Neimen Ranking Arena a year ago, he has never challenged in person again. He always made bets in the audience.
Therefore, this guy's true strength should be much stronger than his actual ranking on the Inner Sect Ranking, because Yang Ze's talent is indeed very good, even stronger than some of the top 100 disciples on the Inner Sect Ranking.
After this year of practice, Yang Ze's realm has reached the peak of the ninth level of the Yuan Dan Realm, and he is only a short step away from stepping into the Tiangang Realm.
Therefore, many people believe that his current actual strength should be able to reach the top 100 on the inner sect list.
Yang Ze was quite good at gambling when he was betting in the audience. He rarely made a wrong bet this year, so he accumulated a lot of wealth.
Of course, this was just before Chu Jianqiu came to the inner sect.
Since being cheated by Chu Jianqiu several times, Yang Ze's net worth has also shrunk by more than half. No, in order to accumulate gambling funds, he has to participate in such a dangerous mission this time.
Therefore, Yang Ze has been unhappy with Chu Jianqiu in his heart for a long time. He is always thinking about how to trick Chu Jianqiu back and at least win back some interest.
It's just that Chu Jianqiu is too cunning, and he has never been able to find a chance.
Yang Ze and other old gamblers couldn't help but tremble when they saw Chu Jianqiu's glance. They couldn't help but secretly be wary of what kind of crooked idea this guy was planning.
Although Du Ling and Bei Wenbai had a bad impression of Chu Jianqiu, they did not really kick him out of the team. After all, they still wanted to save some face for Du Hanyan.
