A few days later, Ning Yue and Xiao Ruobing were resting in a small town.
At this moment, they had left the Xiaguang Sect's range of one hundred thousand miles.
In order to avoid detection, both Ning Yue and Xiao Ruobing put on light-blocking robes.
Ning Yue was still the same as before, his pseudonym was Su Yi, and his cultivation was at the early stage of Nascent Soul.
Xiao Ruobing is his maid.
The two of them flew for several days and were a little hungry, so they came to a tavern in a small town.
Not long after they sat down, they heard people around them talking about their escape from marriage.
Hearing this, Ning Yue almost spat out the drink he had just drank: Do you call this an escape from marriage?
That's outrageous.
It was obvious that he was forced to marry by the Xiaguang Holy Sect, but in the eyes of these monks, it changed and became an escape marriage.
Xiao Ruobing chuckled and said: "Brother Yue, it seems that Xiaguang Holy Sect does not intend to give up on you."
"Never mind them."
Ning Yue curled his lips indifferently.
At this time, a monk said: "Do you know about another major event that happened recently? Two days ago, Wang Qiming from the Wang family in Kyoto has set off to Zhennan City. I heard that he is here to take over as the deputy commander of the Demon Suppression Division."
"The number one genius in Kyoto? He came to our town to become an official?" Someone asked in surprise.
"I heard that he has announced that he will participate in the Immortality Conference in a few months. He threatened to defeat Ning Yue and trample Ning Yue under his feet at the Immortality Conference." Someone laughed.
"You're not too petty, but Lord Ning is not that easy to deal with!" Someone snorted coldly.
"Wang Qiming is already in the middle stage of becoming a god. I think it will be easy to suppress Ning Yue.
The Wang family's background is amazing, and Wang Qiming's methods are not simple. "
Someone sighed.
…
Hearing these discussions, Ning Yue frowned slightly and said to Xiao Ruobing:
"Ruobing, who is this Wang Qiming?"
"Brother Yue, you have to be careful. This person is from the Wang family. The Wang family is one of the older families in the Immortal Court of Creation, and their background is extremely terrifying.
This Wang Qiming is also known as a once-in-a-millennium genius.
He has the body of the Three Pure Dao, which is extremely terrifying. The realm of golden elixir means having three golden elixirs, and the realm of Yuanying means having three Yuanying.
Originally, this kind of physical cultivation was not very fast, but with the deep foundation of the Wang family, it only took Wang Qiming two hundred years to practice to become a god. His true strength is unpredictable and he is basically invincible among his peers.
He once defeated seventeen powerful gods in the Soul Transformation Realm in the Creation Palace's Shanling Academy, so he was hailed as the number one genius in Kyoto. He is currently ranked first on the list of gods in Kyoto.
And their Wang family is a family with ancient inheritance, and they have been officials for generations.
This Wang Qiming has been serving in the Demon-Slaying Army for a long time, and it is reasonable for him to be transferred to the deputy commander of the Demon Division in Zhennan Town. "
Xiao Ruobing looked solemn and spoke eloquently.
"It turns out this is a second-generation official."
Ning Yue smiled.
"Brother Yue, you must not take it lightly. This person is extremely powerful and arrogant.
Now that your official position is still in his head, he will inevitably be a little jealous, and I'm afraid there will be some friction.
Since he has said these harsh words, he will definitely target you. "
Xiao Ruobing sighed softly and smiled bitterly.
"When the time comes, it's not clear who will step on whom. He said he would step on me, which is ridiculous. When the time comes, I will step on him."
Ning Yue sneered.
The two of them left the tavern after having enough wine and food.
At the door of the tavern, a man who looked like a middle-aged scribe stretched out his hand to block their way.
Ning Yue looked worried and said, "Fellow Taoist, what are you doing?"
The middle-aged scribe cupped his fists and saluted, chuckled, and said, "Two fellow Taoists, please forgive me for intruding. This senior is majestic and powerful. He must have a Nascent Soul."
"What does this matter have to do with you?"
Ning Yue's expression turned cold and he said impatiently.
"Senior, don't be angry. Mr. Yang definitely doesn't have any malicious intentions. Mr. Yang just wants to introduce you to a job. This job definitely has excellent conditions."
The middle-aged scribe chuckled.
"Work? I don't need any work."
Ning Yue waved his hands quickly.
Seeing that Ning Yue insisted on leaving, the middle-aged scribe hurriedly said: "Senior, wait! Are you willing to join the Demon-Slaying Army?"
"Demon-Slaying Army?"
Ning Yue's eyes narrowed and he thought, could this person be an official in the demon-slaying army?
"Yes, I want to get senior to join the army."
The middle-aged scribe smiled bitterly.
Ning Yue smiled and said: "Brother, you surrendered to the army, why did you drag me with you?"
The middle-aged scribe sighed softly and said: "Senior, you don't know something. This matter is a long story."
"Anyway, I have nothing to do, so I went into the tavern and sat down to talk." Ning Yue said with a smile.
The middle-aged scribe nodded and followed Ning Yue and Xiao Ruobing back to the tavern.
As soon as the middle-aged scribe sat down, he poured out his bitterness and said:
"Senior, it's a long story. Some time ago, the Demon Suppression Division suddenly issued a notice, ordering us and other casual cultivators to report to the Demon Slayer Army within the specified time. If we don't go, we will be put on a wanted order. Go up.
I am just a casual cultivator with dull qualifications. I have practiced hard for more than a thousand years, and now I am only in the early stage of the Golden Elixir.
Now the Demon-Suppressing Division wants me to join the Demon-Slaying Army? Now he is about to become cannon fodder. "
Ning Yue nodded.
He has been practicing for more than a thousand years, and he is only in the early stage of Golden elixir. His qualifications are indeed average, and none of the major sects will accept such a monk.
If you go to those small sects and are not willing to be bound by the sect's precepts, no wonder you become a casual cultivator.
Ning Yue smiled and said, "How come this Demon Suppression Division has such strange rules? It's simply ridiculous."
"Senior, you don't know. I heard that two years ago, Zhennan City's 100,000 demon-slaying army was completely wiped out in the Congyun demon lair.
There has been a shortage of manpower, and no one is willing to join the demon-slaying army.
Recently, the front line of the demon-slaying army has been tight, so the Demon-Suppressing Division has vigorously recruited manpower.
On the one hand, they forcefully recruit people from within the sect, and on the other hand, they order casual cultivators who are above the late stage of foundation establishment to join the demon-slaying army.
The previous one was in the Nascent Soul realm, but now that he joins the Demon-Slaying Army, he can be directly promoted to a centurion.
As long as you make a little merit, you will soon be promoted to captain of thousands.
This captain's annual salary is not low, that is, he has three hundred top-grade spiritual stones in one year. "
The middle-aged scribe explained with a smile.
"There are so many people in this tavern, why do you like me?"
Ning Yue asked with a smile.
"Senior, there are no sect marks on your clothes. You must be a casual cultivator. If a casual cultivator can enter the Nascent Soul, he must be an extremely powerful being."
The middle-aged scribe smiled.
"Oh, then why don't you think I'm the son of a noble family? This is my maid."
Ning Yue smiled and held Xiao Ruobing's shoulder.
"Senior, you can't hide it. You don't have the dandy temperament of a young master from an aristocratic family. Obviously you are not that kind of disciple.
Senior, although this villain is of low level, he still has some ability to recognize people and objects.
Why don't senior take me to join the demon-slaying army? With the protection of a master like senior, at least I won't die in a daze. "
The middle-aged scribe's way of flattering.
"Let me think about this."
Ning Yue muttered.
