Although Niu Youdao is the key protection target of this group of people in the Yan Kingdom, he is only a part of the monks in the Yan Kingdom. The three major sects of the Yan Kingdom still have the right to speak here, and it is not his turn to make the final decision on major matters.
Regarding Yan Baoru's joining, Niu Youdao didn't know whether it was good or bad and couldn't comment on it.
However, before making the final confirmation with Yan Baoru, he still told the people around him, "Don't let this woman get close to me easily."
Yun Ji was suspicious, "Is there something wrong?"
It's not that there is any problem, but that I don't know what the problem is. I just met Ximen Qingkong, who is ranked first on the pill list in Weiguo, and now I meet Yan Baoru, who is ranked second on the pill list. Although it is a chance encounter, Yan Baoru also said
It makes sense, but at this time, he was on high alert, and any slightest disturbance would arouse his suspicion.
Here, many people want to kill him, but if he wants to go back alive, he has to be careful.
But that's the bad thing about smart people, they tend to overthink everything. For example, the fake "Su Zhao" was also a chance encounter, which also aroused Niu Youdao's vigilance.
To put it bluntly, people like Niu Youdao will be wary and suspicious of any chance encounter.
"Keep an eye on it for me." Niu Youdao did not explain the reason for his suspicion. In short, he had to be cautious until his doubts could not be eliminated.
After Niu Youdao said this, people here in Nanzhou could not be more cautious and looked at Yan Baoru in a different light.
There is one more person in the group, so keep moving forward.
Not long after, someone stopped me again. This time it was not a beautiful woman, but a man, an old man with a sword on his back.
The same thing is that this old man's background is not small, the master ranked sixth on the Dan List, Wu Zhaoxing!
It was Shan Hai, the elder of Xiaoyao Palace, who came forward to ask, "Wu Zhaoxing, why are you blocking the road?"
Wu Zhaoxing said: "It's not a problem to stay alone in this ghost place for a year. It's better to find some people to go with. At least you don't have to do some trivial things yourself. I'll wait here and join whichever gang I meet."
"Help, if you don't mind, count me in. Don't worry, spiritual seeds are of no use to me."
As soon as these words came out, Shan Hai was speechless.
The Yan Guo monks looked at each other in confusion. The other party's words had almost the same meaning as Yan Baoru's words, but it was too coincidental. They were both top masters on the alchemy list. Did the two people discuss it?
Don't talk about them, even Yan Baoru couldn't help but look weird, and couldn't help crying or laughing in her heart. She couldn't help but ask herself, what is this?
A playful smile appeared on Niu Youdao's lips. When most people were not paying attention, he approached Yan Li, the elder of Zijin Cave, and whispered a few words to Yan Li.
Yan Li looked back at him in surprise, and Niu Youdao calmly backed away.
Just when everyone thought there was something wrong with the arrival of Yan Baoru and Wu Zhaoxing one after another, Yan Li stepped forward to persuade Shan Hai and Chu Fengping to accept Wu Zhaoxing to join.
Yan Li's reason was that Wu Zhaoxing was his friend and was invited by him, so there would be no problem.
Since he has made such a guarantee, what else can anyone say?
In front of everyone, Yan Li said to Wu Zhaoxing: "Brother Wu doesn't need to worry about food and daily life. Brother Wu can just help protect Niu Youdao's safety during this trip."
Wu Zhaoxing glanced at Niu Youdao and met Niu Youdao's eyes, who had a slight smile on his face.
"Okay!" Wu Zhaoxing nodded in agreement and walked directly to Niu Youdao.
Niu Youdao warned Yan Baoru carefully in front of him. I don’t know what happened to Wu Zhaoxing. In short, the appearance of the two people one after another was indeed suspicious. Yun Ji and others were suspicious. They all looked at Niu Youdao’s reaction. Seeing Niu Youdao’s slight expression,
After nodding, he got out of the way and let Wu Zhaoxing go to Niu Youdao.
Seeing Wu Zhaoxing guarding Niu Youdao, Yan Baoru frowned slightly.
Many monks from the Yan Kingdom were filled with emotion when they saw this scene. They found that people with status and status are good and don't have to do anything. When they get to this place, they can still have experts dedicated to protecting them, unlike them who can only sacrifice their lives.
They continued to move forward, but the atmosphere among the group became a little strange. The reason was that Yan Baoru and Wu Zhaoxing appeared one after another for the same reason...
This forest is indeed wide enough, and I couldn't walk out for half a day. I didn't rush out, so I decided to take a rest before walking out of the forest.
Because the trees in this forest are really too tall, so tall that no other trees can grow in this forest, and the spiritual trees cannot grow when time is covered. The spiritual trees can only be found after leaving here.
Therefore, the killing will only begin after leaving here, and the killing will end in this forest after the expiration of one year.
At present, the trip to Tiandu Secret Realm has just begun, and no one has harvested spiritual seeds. It is relatively safe here for the time being.
Most people will recharge their energy here before leaving this forest to start their adventure in the secret realm of Tiandu, and the monks of Yan Kingdom are no exception.
Just dig a hole in the trunk of the tree, and a group of monks used magic to dig it. It was just a big tree, and the cave dug in the trunk was enough to accommodate more than a thousand monks from the Yan Kingdom.
The time here is different from that in the outside world. One cycle of night and day lasts two days in the outside world.
As evening approached, Chu Fengping, the elder of Lingjian Mountain, ran to the tree hole where Niu Youdao was, and asked Niu Youdao to talk to him about something.
In the tree cave, Chu Fengping wanted to ward off the others. Niu Youdao nodded. After the others had retreated, he asked, "I wonder what Elder Chu's orders are?"
Chu Fengping seemed to want to see his reaction clearly, so he also released the moon butterfly in the tree hole.
In fact, Moon Butterfly doesn't live long here. If you want your own Moon Butterfly to survive, you have to consume spiritual seeds for Moon Butterfly, turn it into powder and mix it into Moon Butterfly's diet.
After staring at Niu Youdao under the light of the moon butterfly for a while, Chu Fengping said slowly: "I have a female disciple who is pretty good-looking and I brought her to you."
Niu Youdao smiled bitterly in his heart, probably guessing what he was going to say. One after another, one after another, it seemed that it was not enough to disagree with each one, so he sighed: "What next?"
Chu Fengping: "Although she is not a peerless beauty who will conquer the entire country, she is a perfect match for you. Let's get married. You are a smart person and you should understand what I mean."
Niu Youdao: "I seem to understand, but is your disciple willing? I don't want to marry someone who doesn't want to marry me."
Chu Fengping: "You have reached this point and there is no turning back. If you still act emotionally at this level, you will be sorry to yourself and those who follow you. What kind of responsibilities do people have to shoulder when they reach a certain position?
.Similarly, does it matter whether she is willing or not?"
Niu Youdao: "She is a living person. As a master, don't you think about her thoughts at all?"
Chu Fengping: "Sometimes young people's ideas are too naive and unrealistic. Besides, she agreed. Even if she is still reluctant, as long as you two get along for a long time, you will naturally have feelings. Don't think too much,
I'm not as despicable as you think. Just because I am her master, I have to think about her. The benefits she will get after marrying you may be something she can't get in exchange for a lifetime of hard work in the sect. What parent
Don’t you want your daughter to marry well? My heart treats her the same as her biological parents. She also knows what she will get, otherwise she will not agree.”
Niu Youdao: "It's really just for her own good, and Elder Chu doesn't do it for himself at all?"
Chu Fengping: "If she is good, it will be good for me as a master. If I am good, it will be good for her as a disciple. Originally, I didn't want to come here. The sect promised that I would take the lead in this matter, so I reluctantly accepted it."
I agreed. Don’t worry, I won’t just pick a random person to marry you. He is still a good person, and you don’t need to worry about it because it is linked to interests.”
Niu Youdao: "What if I don't agree?"
Chu Fengping: "If you don't agree, if I can't get control of Nanzhou, do I still have to make Lingjian Mountain pay the price to protect you? It's light not to protect you. If I hold you back, you
Your situation will be even more dangerous, so I advise you not to be impulsive."
He didn't say it earlier, but he did it after entering the secret realm of Tiandu. It was obvious that he had already planned it.
Niu Youdao: "You also know my situation. Sha Rulai's requirements are too harsh. I have almost no way to survive. Can you bear to let your apprentice marry a dead man?"
Chu Fengping: "At first, when you caused this problem, I stopped the idea and thought I was unlucky. Later, I observed that you didn't seem to be worried at all. I, Lingjian Mountain, know more or less what you are capable of.
Some of them are indeed not simple, and the appearance of Wu Zhaoxing prompted me to decide to take a gamble!"
Niu Youdao joked: "Anyway, it's just a sacrifice of a female disciple, or it's not even a sacrifice. At most, it's just sleeping with me. You don't lose anything, right?"
Chu Fengping: "To get the first place, you need the spiritual seeds of all the people in the Yan Kingdom to gather together. It can't be done without the people from Lingjian Mountain. You have no choice."
Niu Youdao nodded: "Elder Chu is a real person, okay, I will seriously consider this matter, give me some time."
Chu Fengping: "My patience is limited, how long are you prepared to consider?"
Niu Youdao stretched out his hand, showed five fingers and said: "Five days! Based on the five days here, within five days, I will give Elder Chu a definite answer!"
"Okay, just five days!" Chu Fengping agreed, without saying much, he immediately turned around and left.
Niu Youdao then left the tree hole, went to Yan Li's tree hole, and sold Chu Fengping directly.
After learning about Chu Fengping's secret behavior, Yan Li sneered repeatedly, "What a despicable and shameless guy, he is really shameless."
Niu Youdao: "Elder Yan, I will listen to your arrangement. If you say no, I will reject him immediately."
"Of course..." As soon as Yan Li started speaking, he raised his hand to stop. After thinking about it for a moment, he shook his head and said, "I'm very pleased that I can confess this matter, which shows my feelings. However, it's not appropriate to refuse for the time being, otherwise it will be a problem for the old guy to hold him back.
How should I deal with it? Please let me think about it."
Niu Youdao: "Okay, I'll leave this matter to Elder Yan. By the way, I have something to do and have to leave. I hope Elder Yan can cooperate with me..."
After returning to his tree hole, Niu Youdao found Wu Zhaoxing again.
After the exchange, he learned that Niu Youdao wanted to leave alone and asked him to cooperate with the cover. Wu Zhaoxing flatly refused, "No, it's too dangerous for you to leave alone."
