This result made Bing Wuqing feel a little more at ease. She had travelled thousands of miles to express her loyalty to Lin Yi. If Lin Yi were to be killed by that old man Chen Jiu, who had the home ground advantage, that would be a real disaster.
However, even though Lin Yi had the initiative, they couldn't just continue like this.
Bing Wuqing had already asked around for information on the heaven ascending in one step formation. She knew that this formation was extremely wondrous, and even a nascent soul old monster might not be able to break out of it. Although Lin Yi was unfathomable and mysterious, one thing was for sure. At least up until now, his soul body was still far from the level of a nascent soul cultivator. Breaking out of this formation would be as difficult as ascending to the heavens.
If he didn't have the confidence to break the formation, this bit of initiative would be useless.
Since she had come to the green cloud sect in the North Island to show her loyalty, Bing Wuqing couldn't just wait and do nothing. If she couldn't even see Lin Yi in the end, she would have wasted her time coming.
Barging into the sky Ascension cliff by force was a bad choice, and Bing Wuqing didn't even consider looking for Xin Yijie. She didn't know if he was one of Lin Yi's people, and the only thing she could do was to look for Chen Jiu.
As a nascent Soul Stage expert, it wasn't difficult for Bing Wuqing to see Chen Jiu. If Lu Pingan dared to refuse, he could simply threaten him and force Chen Jiu to obediently show himself. In reality, he didn't even need to force him. Lu Pingan himself would have obediently gone to invite Chen Jiu out.
After all, he wasn't a fool. After his personal experience last time, Lu Pingan knew very well that there was no room for negotiation in front of the other party. After all, they weren't on the same level at all. No matter what the other party asked, he just had to do it obediently, and Chen Jiu would naturally step up to deal with it. Otherwise, if he really made a decision on his own and angered Bing Wuqing, even Chen Jiu might not be able to protect him.
"Have you gotten used to staying at the green cloud School in the North Island for a few days, ruthless?" Chen Jiu chuckled as he exchanged pleasantries.
"It doesn't matter if I'm used to it or not. I'm here to see your martial granduncle, not to sightsee and have fun." As usual, Bing Wuqing didn't give him any face.
"Hehe, my friend Wu Qing is indeed a man of his word. You're still so quick with your words." Chen Jiu laughed awkwardly. As the top existences in the small Jianghu of the immemorial era, nascent soul realm old monsters had their own set of established rules when communicating with each other. Unfortunately, these rules didn't work on Bing Wuqing at all. To put it bluntly, she didn't even know the rules in this area. What could you say about her?
"I'm not good with words, please forgive me, elder Chen. But I have to ask you again, when can I go to the ascending heaven cliff?" Bing Wuqing asked again.
"Didn't I tell you last time that it depends on when Lin Yi grand-master comes out? I don't know what's the relationship between Wu Qing and him, but he's still my ancient green cloud sect's grand-master, and I have to think for him. I hope you can forgive me. " Chen Jiu said, as if he was thinking for Lin Yi.
"Oh, really? But I heard the disciples of the green cloud sect from the North Island talking about how elder Chen didn't have a good relationship with your grand-master Lin Yi, and even your vice-leader Chen Dongcheng was taken care of by Lin Yi, am I right?" Bing Wuqing exposed him mercilessly.
"What? There's such a thing?" Chen Jiu pretended to be at a loss and glared at Lu Pingan discreetly. Before this, he had thought that this personal disciple's ability was extraordinary and that he could take on great responsibilities. In the end, he couldn't even handle such a small matter. He was also a waste.
Lu Ping 'an smiled wryly. He had been thinking of all sorts of ways to prevent his sect's disciples from coming into contact with Bing Wuqing, but he couldn't stop the disciples from gossiping among themselves. The disciples from the Chen family faction were still fine, but the numerous local factions wouldn't be so obedient. With Bing Wuqing's ability, he would naturally know if anyone talked about her. He wasn't to be blamed for this at all.
However, since Chen Jiu was glaring at him, Lu Ping 'an could only continue the conversation. Similarly, he pretended to be puzzled and said,""It can't be, right? Although Grand Elder and martial granduncle have not officially met yet, that's because martial granduncle was busy with his closed-door cultivation as soon as he arrived. They haven't even met each other yet, so how could there be any conflict?"
"Then what is with Deputy sect leader Chen?" Bing Wuqing looked at their expressions.
"Oh, Deputy sect leader Chen is not here. He went out on business, so the discussions you heard were probably just rumors. The disciples under him often talk nonsense in private. Please excuse them." Lu Ping 'an tried to fool him.
Bing Wuqing looked straight into his eyes, and Lu Pingan didn't dare to look at her at all. He slowly said,""You're lying. "
"Ah?" Lu Pingan was taken aback, but he immediately forced a smile and said,""You must be joking, ice elder. Everything I've said is true. I'm not hiding anything."
Bing Wuqing didn't say anything. She was very sure that the other party was lying. However, since the other party was determined to deny it, there was no way for him to expose her in person, unless he could find a witness to confront her in person, or find Chen Dongcheng. Unfortunately, neither of these two things was realistic.
"It seems like everything is clear now. It's just some disciples talking nonsense. Wu Qing, you don't have to take it too seriously. If there's any news about Lin Yi, we'll let you know immediately. Please be patient." Chen Jiu finally stepped forward and said.
At this point, Bing Wuqing naturally couldn't say anything more, so she turned around and left.
After Bing Wuqing had left for a long time, Lu Pingan finally heaved a sigh of relief. He said worriedly,""Master, this Bing Wuqing isn't easy to fool. I'm worried that he'll do more things in the future. Most importantly, he's still in the nascent Soul Stage. I can't stop him even if I wanted to. What if he really does something out of line? what should we do then?"
"What do you mean? Order all the people below to shut up. If anyone dares to gossip, have them come to see this old man. " Chen Jiu coldly snorted.
"But what about Xin Yijie?" The Grand Elder Chen Jiu had given the order himself. In theory, no one in the entire green cloud sect, from the Golden core stage to the normal disciples, be it house Chen or the local factions, would dare to disobey him. However, Xin Yijie was an exception. It was clear that he was on Lin Yi's side, and they were bound together for good or bad. How could he be scared by Chen Jiu's order?
"Hmph, if he doesn't listen, you can keep an eye on him yourself." Chen Jiu's eyes sharpened. If it wasn't for the fact that Chen Dongcheng was being held hostage, if it wasn't for the fact that he was afraid that Chen Dongcheng wouldn't be able to be saved if he completely fell out with Lin Yi, he would've gotten someone to take care of this reckless Xin Yijie long ago.
