Chapter 475 Li Yunpeng’s Trouble

After Yun He left, Wu Chi calmed down and tried to refine the star stone. Only then did he realize that he seemed to be a little too optimistic.

After struggling for a long time, the amount of star power that can actually be absorbed is very small. After a rough estimate, I am afraid that as Yun He said, it can barely refine one star stone in a month now.

Compared with others, this speed may not be too slow, but this speed cannot satisfy Wu Chi.

Although the Shattered Star was just a joke between him and Yun He for about a hundred years, in fact, it was not completely nonsense.

Whether it was the threat brought by Xi Junying or the provocation from these people in Wanjian Sect, Wu Chi felt a sense of oppression.

What's more, if you want to see Zhou Boyan and the others again, you will inevitably have to leave Cangqiongxing. All of this requires strong support, and naturally Wu Chi cannot help but practice hard.

Wu Chi naturally didn't know that just when he was worried about his slow cultivation speed, Li Yunpeng was already in big trouble because of him.

....

"Junior brother Li, it's not that your senior brother is embarrassing you, it's really a task from above that you can't refuse."

Shaking his head, Xuanfu reached out and patted Li Yunpeng on the shoulder and said, "Get ready and leave early tomorrow morning."

Li Yunpeng stood there calmly and did not answer. The atmosphere was a bit cold. Xuanfu retracted his hand in embarrassment and turned to leave.

He was not angry because of Li Yunpeng's attitude. In fact, the sect's mission arrangement this time was very unreasonable. It was as if someone was deliberately targeting Li Yunpeng, a junior disciple.

The star refining has just been completed, and now that the destiny star has not even been lit up, he is being arranged to go to Mang Mountain to slay demons. This is no different from asking Li Yunpeng to die.

To be honest, he also sympathized with Li Yunpeng a little, but his words were so slight that it meant nothing at all.

"Junior brother, may I ask what Li Yunpeng is doing?"

Just as Xuanfu was leaving, a questioning voice suddenly sounded in his ears. He was slightly startled. The moment he raised his head, Xuanfu was a little confused, "Fairy Yunhe?"

"Yun He wants to talk to Li Yunpeng about something. I wonder if he is here?" Yun He asked again.

"Yes, yes! Just in front, I will take the fairy there." Xuanfu reacted immediately and agreed hurriedly.

Although they are both core disciples, the gap between him and Yun He is too big. It is difficult to even see him, let alone talk to him.

Peipianpidian led the way, but Xuanfu was a little confused. With Yunhe's identity, why did he suddenly come to Li Yunpeng?

Not long after leaving, Xuanfu took Yunhe to Li Yunpeng's residence again in a moment.

It stands to reason that the core disciples should also be assigned to a middle-grade cave, but the time is still short and there is no time to arrange it. Fortunately, Li Yunpeng has also been accepted by Xiu Shui Sword Lord as a registered disciple, and can temporarily live on Xiu Shui Peak. .

"Junior Brother Li, when did you meet Fairy Yunhe?"

Walking to Li Yunpeng's side, Xuanfu lowered his voice and asked.

But Li Yunpeng himself was surprised, so naturally he couldn't answer him.

"Junior brother Li, this is Fairy Yunhe, why don't you greet me quickly?" Seeing Li Yunpeng didn't respond, Xuanfu added.

"I've seen Fairy Yunhe."

Li Yunpeng bowed slightly.

"Just call me senior sister." Yun He waved his hand and said softly.

"I wonder what Senior Sister Yun He has to do with me?" Li Yunpeng had no intention of going around in circles with Yun He, even though Yun He was very beautiful and far superior to him in strength.

"I have a message for Senior Brother Wu Chi, saying that I have something to ask you and please come to his cave to discuss it." Yun He didn't know what the relationship between Wu Chi and Li Yunpeng was, so he stopped talking nonsense and said directly.

"Wu Chi?"

Li Yunpeng raised his eyebrows slightly and guessed what Wu Chi wanted to do with him.

But Xi Junying not only has no contact with Wu Chi, but also has nothing special about him. Now Li Yunpeng also didn't know what Xi Junying wanted to do. Even if he met Wu Chi, it would be of no use.

After pondering for a moment, Li Yunpeng then shook his head and said, "Sister Yun He, please tell Wu Chi that everything is fine with me and don't worry about me."

Li Yunpeng's tone was very calm, and even towards Yun He, he felt alienated and alienated from others thousands of miles away.

Slightly startled, Yun He didn't expect that Li Yunpeng would refuse, but she just came to bring a word, so she naturally had no intention of continuing to pester him.

"With that, Yun He bids farewell."

Seeing that Yun He was about to leave, Li Yunpeng said nothing, but Xuanfu was a little anxious, "Fairy Yun He, stay here."

After chasing him all the way out, Xuanfu didn't know what his state of mind was.

"Junior brother, is there anything else you can do?" Yun He asked in confusion.

"Fairy Yunhe, Junior Brother Li is just a tough talker. Now he is in big trouble. If he is not careful, his life will be in danger." Xuanfu organized his thoughts and spoke again.

Yun He couldn't help but be a little puzzled, "Junior Brother Li has just joined the sect, how can his life be in danger?"

"Oh, I don't know what happened, but the people above who assigned sect tasks insisted on sending Junior Brother Li to Mang Mountain to slay the demons."

.. .

"Mangshan slays demons?"

Wu Chi repeated in surprise and looked at Yun He in confusion.

"Mang Mountain used to be a place where demons and monsters lived. Thousands of years ago, the Killing Sword King swept Mang Mountain with his sword and slaughtered all the demon kings and demon lords! However, there are still many demons gathering in Mang Mountain. And they are very interested in me, the Wanjian Sect. There is great hatred. In these years, the sect has always had the sect mission of going to Mang Mountain to eliminate demons. Firstly, it is to continue to eliminate demons, and secondly, it is also a way to train disciples."

Yun He explained softly, "However, Mang Mountain is also very dangerous. In the past, only disciples who were close to the peak of gathering stars would accept such sect tasks. Li Yunpeng had just started, and he didn't even light up his life star. You shouldn’t have received this kind of mission at all.”

Wu Chi raised his eyebrows slightly and glanced at Yun He thoughtfully, "You mean, does it have something to do with me that he received this kind of mission?"

"Li Yunpeng is just a core disciple who has just started, and he is said to be very low-key. I don't think anyone will want to deal with him." Yun He said casually, "Besides, the one who can control the assignment of tasks in this sect must at least be a true disciple. Only disciples can do that.”

Having said this, the meaning is self-evident.

Li Yunpeng and Wu Chi ascended to the upper realm at the same time, so they were naturally familiar with each other. Now that they failed to suppress Wu Chi, they turned to target Li Yunpeng, which meant that they were still targeting Wu Chi.

"Can the sect mission be cancelled?" Wu Chi looked at Yun He and asked.

"I'm afraid not." Shaking his head, Yun He explained, "Although you claim to be a true disciple, in fact, you have no rights. What's more, the Killing Sword Lord has never interfered in these matters, and now that you are not in the sect, you Speechless.”

"..."

This answer made Wu Chi speechless again.

They are both true disciples, and they can even control the sect's missions, but I have no way to do anything about it. The gap is really too big, isn't it?

"Wrong?" Wu Chi seemed to have thought of something and asked in confusion, "Since they can assign sect tasks like this, why don't they just let me go to Mang Mountain?"

Rolling his eyes, Yun He looked at Wu Chi with a look that looked like an idiot, "True disciples don't need to accept any sect tasks unless they want to, they just need to focus on cultivation! If I want you to go to Mang Mountain, unless it's for killing. The Sword Master personally gave the order, otherwise, even the other three Sword Masters would not be able to forcefully assign you what to do.”

This is the privilege of a true disciple, especially a true disciple like Wu Chi who was directly accepted by the Sword Lord and has a higher status.

After hearing this, Wu Chi finally understood.

"In other words, the other party actually wants to lure me to Mang Mountain?"

Nodding, Yun He's face became more solemn, "I'm afraid that's the case. With your current strength, going to Mang Mountain will probably be a disaster."

Speaking of this, Wu Chi couldn't help but fell silent.

Ordinarily, Wu Chi should not have been fooled since he had guessed the other party's intentions.

However, this is a conspiracy in itself, and I am not afraid of you guessing it at all.

Wu Chi was certain that if he didn't go, Li Yunpeng would probably die in Mang Mountain.

Although in fact, the relationship between Li Yunpeng and himself was not as close as outsiders thought, they had fought together in the dark prison world. It was hard for Wu Chi to accept that he really had to completely ignore Li Yunpeng's life and death.

What's more, this matter started because of him. If he really stood by and watched, it would be difficult for him to get over this hurdle in his heart.

Furthermore, who knows what Xi Junying is thinking. After all, Li Yunpeng is Xi Junying's disciple. If he really dies because of his own reasons, I'm afraid he will also be in trouble.

"Actually, I'm curious, why do they want to target me? Is it because I'm too handsome?"

Wu Chi turned his head and looked at Yun He and asked.

"...It must be because he is too ugly." Yun He snorted slightly and replied firmly.

"..."

Seeing Wu Chi's defeat, Yun He felt somewhat relieved, and then explained, "A hundred years from now, there will be a sect competition. Especially for true disciples, the ranking in the competition is extremely important. You have just started and you are hailed as a genius." , and even being accepted as a direct disciple by the Slaughter Sword Lord, it will naturally arouse people's jealousy."

After a pause, Yun He continued, "Furthermore, there are rumors that the Sword Ancestor intends to select one of the four sword masters to become the master! Among the sword masters, the Killing Sword Master is already the strongest... and now... Taking on a disciple like you..."

At this point, Yun He didn't say any more, but his meaning had already been clearly expressed.

After being slightly startled, Wu Chi finally understood.

Emotions are still the trouble caused by my cheap master.

Just for a moment, Wu Chi thought that when Luo Ying left, he promised himself a hundred years of freedom, and his heart felt warm. No matter how outsiders guessed Luo Ying's intentions, Wu Chi knew very well that Luo Ying's acceptance of him as a disciple should have nothing to do with competing for the position of head teacher.
