"What, do you know Manager Ling?" The sturdy monk looked startled, and then said with some confusion, "Your Excellency, please wait a moment, I will go and inform you."
"Is that person really here?"
Inside the main hall, Ling Yuling groped for the token in her hand and murmured. She was currently wearing a white men's brocade robe. She looked very handsome, but her every move was slightly feminine.
"This senior kept saying that he didn't need any reward, but he didn't expect to come to see me so quickly. It seems that no one is immune."
Thinking of this, for some reason, a trace of disappointment flashed through my heart.
"Is that person still out there?"
"Yes, he has been waiting outside. What are your orders from Manager Ling?" the sturdy monk said respectfully.
"Go ahead and invite this person in. This senior is kind to me, so don't neglect me." Ling Yuling waved her hand.
"I obey my orders."
Outside the main hall, the sturdy monk appeared again, looked at Chu Feng waiting outside, and said in a low voice:
"Senior, Manager Ling invites you to come with me."
"The last time we met, I was just a squad leader. It took only a few days for me to be promoted to manager. This person's promotion speed is also very fast."
Chu Feng muttered something secretly in his heart, and then followed the strong monk towards the inside of the main hall.
The interior decoration of the Law Enforcement Hall is cooler and the overall style is more solemn and heavy. The two walked through a wide hall and then entered a long corridor. After walking for about a quarter of an hour, they finally arrived in front of a room.
.
The sturdy monk did not speak loudly, but knocked lightly on the door three times, and the door opened in response.
Chu Feng followed him into the room and immediately felt that the environment here had changed greatly. Both the decoration and the colors were completely different from the outside, giving people a warmer atmosphere. He could even smell a hint of elegant fragrance, which was
The smell of some kind of incense residue.
"You go down first."
A cold voice came, and the strong monk did not dare to disobey in the slightest. He bowed respectfully and turned around to leave.
It was only then that Chu Feng saw Ling Yuling's familiar figure again. He was still dressed in men's clothing. Knowing his true identity, he looked somewhat heroic.
"We haven't seen each other for several months, but my senior is still as charming as ever. Ever since we parted ways that day, Ling has been waiting for a long time and has always wanted to repay senior for his life-saving grace as soon as possible."
A sincere smile appeared on Ling Yuling's face, but she was not dissatisfied because he came to receive the reward.
"It's just a small effort, not to mention a life-saving favor. Captain Ling, on the other hand, has been promoted to manager after only a few months of absence. I would like to congratulate Chu Feng." Chu Feng said with a smile.
A smile flashed in Ling Yuling's eyes, and then she said:
"Senior, please sit down quickly. The reward was agreed to by Ling a while ago and will be brought to you later."
Chu Feng nodded, sat down, and immediately explained:
"Manager Ling doesn't have to be so polite all the time. Just call me Brother Chu. Mr. Chu came here this time not to ask for reward, but to have other important matters."
"oh?"
Ling Yuling was slightly surprised, then smiled and said, "In this case, Ling is not polite. I don't know if Brother Chu is in trouble. As long as it is within my ability, I will definitely help you with all my strength."
The original restraint dissipated, the atmosphere in the room suddenly became relaxed, and Chu Feng slowly explained the matter.
Ling Yuling couldn't help but laugh when she heard that she was just helping to take care of a newly opened store. Such a request was too small, and it was just a matter of words to her.
"From what Brother Chu said, do you plan to settle in Tianxing City for a long time?"
"That's right." Chu Feng nodded and said, "Chu was originally a casual cultivator. He formed a golden elixir by chance, but it is difficult to go further. Tianxing City belongs to the center of the Chaotic Star Sea, with prosperous commerce and endless possibilities.
The opportunity is just right for monks like us to live here for a long time."
"What Brother Chu said is true. This is indeed an excellent place for monks to live. Star Palace also welcomes strong men like Brother Chu to come." Ling Yuling showed a smile on his face and continued, "In that case, I am here
I have a suggestion, I hope Brother Chu will consider it."
"But there's no harm in talking."
"Brother Chu, have you ever thought about joining Star Palace?" Ling Yuling suddenly asked.
"Chu is used to being at ease and has no intention of joining any force." Chu Feng refused directly.
He didn't expect that the other party would make such a suggestion, but it was not surprising when he thought of the other party's identity. He wanted to recruit talents for Xinggong.
A flash of disappointment flashed through Ling Yuling's heart. This was the first time she had extended an invitation to someone else. She didn't expect the other party to reject it without hesitation. It seemed that she didn't have enough prestige.
"In this case, Ling will not force it." Ling Yuling suddenly paused, then handed the token in his hand to the other party again and said,
"Brother Chu, please keep this coin. If you change your mind at any time, you can come to me at any time."
Chu Feng glanced at the other party, but this time he did not refuse, so as not to be too merciless.
Even so, the atmosphere still became a little stagnant. Chu Feng said goodbye in a timely manner and declined the other party's reward before leaving.
Instead of accepting a small amount of spiritual stones, it is better to make the other party owe a favor, so that he can really take care of Wanling Pavilion with all his heart.
Of course, the so-called not very generous thing is just in his opinion. If it were someone else, it might not be so easy to refuse.
Back at Wanling Pavilion, Zhou Zhiruo and Xiao Zhao were resting on the second floor, and there were servants in charge of the hall on the first floor.
"Master, how's it going? Is it done?"
Chu Feng nodded, explained the situation about Ling Yuling, and then handed the guest order to the two of them:
"I will leave this token with you for the time being. With it, no one will dare to come and cause trouble. Of course, it will be difficult to say if we leave Tianxing City."
"When does the master plan to go to the outer star sea?" Zhou Zhiruo played with the talisman for a while and asked again.
"Without further delay, I will take one night off today and leave tomorrow. I will leave the affairs here to you two."
There are eighty-one floors in the Holy Mountain, and the teleportation array leading to the outer star sea is set up on the fiftieth floor.
The next day,
Chu Feng arrived here early in the morning. This was a hall with several rows of teleportation arrays of the same appearance built side by side.
The cost of teleportation is very high, and the more people there are, the cheaper it will be. According to the rules set by the Star Palace, only seven people can be teleported at a time. Therefore, many teleportation formations are crowded with monks who are waiting because there are not enough people.
His arrival immediately attracted the attention of some monks, and someone immediately stepped forward and asked enthusiastically:
"Does this Taoist friend want to go to Zizhi Island? There are already six of us."
Chu Feng followed his directions and looked, and sure enough there were five people standing there. At this time, they all looked at him expectantly.
After carefully looking at them, I found that the cultivation levels of these people were not very high. Only two of them had reached the pill-forming stage, and the rest were only at the foundation-building stage. They were really brave enough.
The alien sea is not a safe place. There are countless monsters there. If you don't pay attention, you will lose your life. I'm afraid these people can only wander around, everything depends on luck.
"What a coincidence, I was planning to go to Zizhi Island, but I'm on my way. Please invite this fellow Taoist."
To him, it didn't matter which island he went to, so he simply followed the other person's words and replied.
The monk responsible for guarding the teleportation array is an old man, wearing a white robe and saying with a serious face:
"Since we are all here, let's pay the fees first."
