The Acting Is Really Bad
The next morning, Yi Xiaoyin woke up Xia Tian and Zhao Qingqing. Seeing how energetic they looked, she knew what they had done last night.
For Xia Tian, that kind of thing is a dual cultivation. Unless he meets someone like Ye Yumei who can drain him dry, otherwise, he will only become more courageous.
Needless to say, there has never been a field that has been damaged by plowing, and Zhao Qingqing is naturally full of energy because she has been irrigated sufficiently.
"The people from the Holy Hand Sect are coming. Let's go meet them together." Yi Xiaoyin didn't want to ask about their affairs, so she just reminded them, "For a while, you two better keep quiet. I will handle anything. Do you hear me?"
"Okay." Xia Tian said with a smile: "Wife Yi Yi, you know I am always the most obedient."

"You gave it away as soon as you opened your mouth." Yi Xiaoyin sighed and pointed at her face: "I am Professor Pang now, you have to be careful about how you address me. Call me teacher in public." Then she looked at Zhao Qingqing: "You too."
"Okay, teacher. Yes, teacher." Zhao Qingqing suspected that Yi Xiaoyin was jealous, and her tone became mischievous, and she couldn't hide the smile in the corner of her eyes.
Yi Xiaoyin took the two of them out of the hotel, turned a few corners, and entered a large courtyard.
Outside the courtyard stood a humble and polite young man. When he saw Yi Xiaoyin and the other two, he immediately smiled and said, "Professor Pang, you are here. I was planning to pick you up at Jianghai University in person. My name is Wang Chaofan, and my master is the sect leader Sheng Qiyang. You should have known each other for a long time."

"No need to be polite." Yi Xiaoyin said calmly: "Where are they?"
Professor Pang had a cold temper to begin with, so the young man didn't get suspicious and continued to say with a smile, "My master and his friends are already waiting in the living room. The two people behind are probably your students."

"Just lead the way. Asking more questions will do you no good." Yi Xiaoyin did not continue to criticize, her voice still cold.
"Okay, this way please." Wang Chaofan bowed slightly, only half a step ahead of Yi Xiaoyin, and walked forward slowly, talking from time to time, flattering Professor Pang: "Professor Pang, you are well-versed in ancient and modern times, knowledgeable and intelligent, and you are also the most prestigious geology professor in the world. With your help, this search...oh, exploration will definitely be a perfect success. This is a promotion for your career, and it is also the glory of our Shengshou Sect. It is rare for you to take the time to come here, we will definitely give you a warm reception and serve you wholeheartedly... Here, if you have any requirements, you can just ask, and I will do my best to satisfy you."
Zhao Qingqing looked at the man's servile manner and was really confused. She whispered to Xia Tian, "This man is too flattering. Even if Professor Pang is useful to them, there is no need to lick him like this."

Xia Tian was not surprised at all. He just yawned lazily and said, "There are all kinds of idiots in the world. There's nothing strange about it."
"That's right." Zhao Qingqing felt that she was making a fuss out of nothing, so she stopped talking and just looked around the yard as she walked.

Soon they entered the living room.
There were already a few people waiting there, and judging by the positions where they were sitting, they were most likely from different forces.
"Oh, Professor Pang, you are finally here. You really made us wait so long." Sitting on the main seat was a middle-aged man with a short beard, who looked to be about forty-five or forty-six years old. When he saw Yi Xiaoyin come in, he immediately went over to greet her.
Yi Xiaoyin glanced at this person and immediately had the information about this person in her mind. It was Sheng Qiyang, the current leader of the Shengshou Sect, and the initiator of this so-called exploration and adventure activity.

Sheng Qiyang looked at Yi Xiaoyin and felt that something was a little different. However, after checking his impression carefully, he felt that there was no difference. He could only smile and tease, "I am Old Sheng. How can you not remember me? We met ten years ago and we are old friends. Please take a seat."
Yi Xiaoyin found an empty seat and sat down slowly. Xia Tian and Zhao Qingqing followed behind Yi Xiaoyin and also had benches waiting for them.
"Who are they?" Yi Xiaoyin looked at the other people and had some idea in her mind, but Professor Pang actually didn't know these people, so she asked.

"Oh, let me introduce them." Sheng Qiyang just felt that Professor Pang was becoming increasingly cold, and without thinking too much, he smiled and said, "These are the companions we invited for this expedition, and they are quite famous in the industry."
Sheng Qiyang pointed to an old man in his sixties dressed in a Tang suit and said with a smile, "This is Liang Yiding from the Liangbao Sect in the north, also known as Uncle Ding. He has more than forty years of rich experience in treasure hunting and exploration. He is known for never failing and always finding a treasure when exploring."
The old man in the Tang suit narrowed his eyes slightly, looking quite energetic and strong. When he heard Sheng Qiyang introduce him, he couldn't help but smile and said, "It's just a little bit of false reputation, not worth mentioning. Compared with experts like Professor Pang who graduated from the school, he is still much inferior."
This statement is a compliment but actually an insult, and he is quite ambivalent.

Yi Xiaoyin already knew this man's background and didn't take it seriously. He was just a passerby who could be dealt with at any time.
"This is a famous Feng Shui master in the country, his name is Zhu Xuanjing." This was said by a plain-looking middle-aged man wearing a top hat. However, he was dressed quite neatly and had a gentle demeanor, and looked like a decent human being.
The man in the top hat just smiled faintly at Yi Xiaoyin as a greeting.

"This is Professor Pang, a professor in the Department of Geology at Jianghai University. He is also a world-renowned expert in geology." Sheng Qiyang pointed at Yi Xiaoyin and symbolically introduced her to the other people.
"Okay, let's stop the polite talk and get straight to the point." Yi Xiaoyin said lightly.
The others couldn't help but look at Yi Xiaoyin a little more. Sheng Qiyang laughed and said, "Professor Pang is still as straightforward as ever. Well, since we are all not outsiders, let's get straight to the point. Do you have any objections?"

"Wait, I have something to say!" At this time, a group of people suddenly rushed in from outside. The young man in front of them even had a bird gun in his hand. He looked at Sheng Qiyang and the others arrogantly, "I am not even here, what kind of meeting are you having?"
"Who is this person?" Zhao Qingqing asked subconsciously.

The man in the top hat laughed and said, "This young man is the only son of the previous leader of Shengshou Sect. His name is Zhuo Yuanfan. It looks like we are going to be dragged into the power struggle of Shengshou Sect."
When Sheng Qiyang saw the person coming, he couldn't help but frowned and said, "Xiao Zhuo, what are you doing? Get out quickly, you have nothing to do here!"

"You said it's none of my business, so it's none of my business?" The young man spat out a mouthful of thick phlegm and cursed, "The Holy Hand Sect was founded by our Zhuo family. Not only do you, Sheng, occupy it, but now you don't even allow me to participate in the affairs of the sect?"
"Stop messing around, get out now." Sheng Qiyang suppressed his anger, "If you have any dissatisfaction, you can tell me in private, don't embarrass our sect here!"
The young man sneered and looked around with the bird gun in hand: "Why are you pretending? You have already brought shame to the people in the sect. In the past, our Shengshou Sect was a hidden sect, famous in the entire cultivation world. Now we have fallen to the point of hanging out with a group of low-class treasure thieves. This is the most shameful thing, isn't it?"
"I don't know what you're talking about, but get out now!" Sheng Qiyang couldn't hold back his anger anymore, and shouted at the bodyguards who followed him in, "Master Zhuo is having a seizure, why don't you help him get down to rest."

"Who dares to touch me!" The young man pointed the bird gun in his hand at Sheng Qiyang: "I will kill anyone who comes. Do you really think that the bird gun can't kill people?"
Sheng Qiyang was also a little panicked at this time, and quickly admitted his mistake: "Xiao Zhuo, if you have something to say, please talk nicely. Put the gun down first. If it goes off accidentally, you will regret it."

"If it goes off accidentally, it's your bad luck!" The young man gritted his teeth and put the muzzle of the gun against Sheng Qiyang's forehead. "Today, as the orthodox young master, I must participate in your lousy meeting. Do you agree?"
Sheng Qiyang raised his hands: "Okay, okay, put down the gun and everything will be fine. I was going to call you anyway."
"Bring me a chair and put it next to Master Sheng." The young man yelled at the bodyguard beside him, "I want to listen to how you hold the meeting here today."
Sheng Qiyang quickly yelled, "Go!"

Wang Chaofan immediately moved a chair and placed it behind the young man, and said softly: "Brother Zhuo, don't be impulsive. Disrespecting the sect master is a serious crime. Even if the sect master doesn't blame you afterwards, it is still illegal. You should still consider..."
"Shut up!" the young man yelled, "I don't have time to deal with a spineless wimp like you, get out of here."

Everyone present was watching this wonderful show quietly, but the expressions on their faces were different.
"Tell me, was this arranged in advance or is it true?" Zhao Qingqing asked Xia Tian and Yi Xiaoyin in a low voice.
Yi Xiaoyin did not answer, but just drank tea calmly.
"It must be an act." Xia Tian yawned lazily, "It's just that this idiot's acting is so bad."
Xia Tian's voice was loud and he didn't try to hide it at all. The young man heard it clearly and got angry immediately. He yelled, "Boy, what the hell are you talking about!"
"You heard what I said." Xia Tian curled his lips, "Why are you pretending to be deaf now?"
"Damn it, you're looking for death, aren't you?" The young man was in a very unstable mood. Hearing Xia Tian's words, he immediately regarded it as a provocation and pointed the muzzle of the bird gun at Xia Tian. "Believe it or not, I can kill you with one shot?"
"I don't believe it." Xia Tian answered calmly.
The young man didn't expect Xia Tian to be even more arrogant than him. He was stimulated and immediately pulled the trigger: "Fuck, you are looking for death!"
“Bang!”
Gunshots rang out, and someone fell to the ground instantly.
