Marquis Jingcheng has nine disciples in total.
In addition to the senior brothers Jiang Huan and Lao Liu, there is also the seventh senior brother who has never met and whom no one likes to mention.
The rest appeared in front of Shen Qian at this moment, which surprised him beyond measure.
What surprised Shen Qian even more was that the Eighth Senior Sister Ji Ruoshui also came to the Magic City. He had clearly heard from Lao Liu that the Eighth Senior Sister would almost never leave the Babel Tower, let alone Jingcheng.
After saying hello to Ji Ruoshui, Shen Qian put away his complicated thoughts and hurriedly walked over with a smile, taking over the service work from Ling Xiao who was making tea.
"Second Senior Sister said that you seemed to have stepped into the mountains and seas. We didn't believe it at first, but now it seems to be true."
Shi Dingyan's face was full of emotion, "It took half a year to go from a quasi-martial artist to the mountains and seas. If such living examples didn't happen in front of me, I would never believe it!"
Wu Jun still had that stiff, dead face, but judging from the degree of twitching on his face at this time, it was obvious that he was also very shaken.
"Even if it is put in front of me, I still can't believe it."
The one who felt it the most was Ling Xiao.
Although he didn't use all his strength and didn't draw his sword, the blow was not something that the mountains and seas could match, but Shen Qian not only took it, but even almost made him look embarrassed.
Such a terrifying rate of progress can only be described as breathtaking.
"That what..."
Looking at the concerned and pleased faces of several thighs, Shen Qian was still embarrassed to lie.
Today, in Shen Qian's heart, he has already vaguely regarded the master as another family.
Only in front of Shi Dingyan and others, Shen Qian could not feel any secular meaning.
And even Wu Wei, the martial arts minister who had always been kind to him, sometimes plotted against him.
But no matter which senior brother or sister they were, they cared for him extremely and never thought of getting anything in return from him.
If Shen Qian had misjudged the wrong person in this matter, then he would be willing to admit defeat.
When they heard Shen Qian speak, Shi Dingyan and others, who were eagerly discussing what "path" Shen Qian had taken, paused and looked over.
"Actually, I haven't broken through the mountains and seas yet." Shen Qian whispered.
The room fell into dead silence.
A few seconds later, Shi Dingyan raised the teacup calmly, took a sip and said, "It's rare to be able to drink authentic Longjing tea in this day and age."
"It's true that tea grown in the laboratory always tastes a little worse."
Ling Xiao also nodded and said with deep understanding.
"Can."
Wu Jun was more concise and just echoed.
"Come on, little junior brother, you can try it too."
Shi Dingyan smiled and handed Shen Qian a cup of tea.
The three of them took a sip of tea as if nothing had happened. Shen Qian also took a sip of tea. Just when they were a little confused, Shi Dingyan and the other three disappeared in an instant.
The next moment, the entire suite was spinning. After a moment of dizziness, Shen Qian was shocked to find that more than a dozen isolation formations had been deployed inside and outside the suite.
Immediately afterwards, Shen Qian found that he was thrown into the air, several invisible hands passed over his body, and he vaguely heard a lot of muttering.
"There's nothing wrong with the skeletal texture..."
"It is indeed genuine Yuanli!"
"There are no traces of demonic invasion either."
"We can rule out going crazy."
Soon, the probing hands dispersed, and when he came back to his senses, Shen Qian was inexplicably sitting in the middle of the living room. Opposite him, Shi Dingyan, Wu Jun and Ling Xiao lined up and sat opposite him.
"Tell me about it."
"When did this happen?"
"Is there any hidden secret that I can't tell you?"
The three of them asked one after another with serious expressions.
At this time, Shen Qian had already reacted. Seeing the posture of the three people interrogating, he was a little bit dumbfounded, and at the same time, he was quite moved.
They seemed to be exploring Shen Qian's secret, but in fact, they were all concerned about it.
"It's nothing. I just accidentally entered the 'door' once, and by chance, I gathered my energy in advance."
Shen Qian roughly explained.
What he said was vague, but the three of them didn't study it in detail. Instead, Shi Dingyan couldn't help but realize it after thinking about it for a while.
"You should still remember that when the teacher set up the Heaven-Seizing Formation, my junior brother, who is just a beginning warrior, was able to reach directly into the Dao Sea and even jump back and forth in the avenue. This shows that..."
"It shows that junior brother does have the potential to ask before Shanhai." Ling Xiao took over the conversation.
"Some 'doors' are completely isolated from the world. If you draw the power of the Dao and the sea, you may be able to gather the energy in advance without transforming the mountains and seas."
Wu Jun murmured in the end, "What a Luohua who is deliberately ruthless. Junior brother, you and I are indeed of the same mind."
Shen Qian was also impressed when he saw that each of the three thighs had restored the truth of the matter in one sentence.
...Although he wanted to refute Fourth Senior Brother, you and I are not of the same mind.
"Then the interesting thing is coming." Ling Xiao didn't know what he thought of, and said with bright eyes, "When Shen Qian truly steps into the Dao Sea, will Yuan Li transform again?"
"There is a high probability." Shi Dingyan said thoughtfully, "As we all know, Dao Hai's power of transformation is the highest level. Does that mean that the junior brother will have forbidden Yuan Power in advance?"
As soon as these words came out, the expressions of several people present became strange.
"If it's true, it's too outrageous." Ling Xiao couldn't help but say.
"What is taboo energy?" Shen Qian heard a new term that was not found in textbooks and couldn't help but wonder.
"Yuanli can transform. Quantitative changes lead to qualitative changes. After reaching the critical point, Yuanli will usher in a second rebirth, from 1 to 2, which is what we call the taboo realm."
Shi Dingyan explained, "Of course, this is just my conjecture, just a possibility, but going from 1 to 2 is actually an extremely difficult process, so you don't need to think too much, you will know it when the time comes."
Shen Qian nodded slightly.
But he remembered in his heart that in fact, his Yuan Power had already transformed once when he was in the Wuding Bridge Divine Machine Hall.
But that transformation shouldn't be big, it was more like changing his Yuan Power from 1 to 1.2 or 1.3.
"No wonder Xiaoliuzi said that he met you at Wuding Bridge. You went there through the 'door' at that time, right?"
Ling Xiao thought of another thing and couldn't help but smile.
"Yeah." Shen Qian scratched his head in embarrassment and said, "I accidentally robbed Sixth Senior Brother of his opportunity..."
"That's wrong."
Shi Dingyan interrupted Shen Qian and said seriously: "Opportunity, opportunity, what is opportunity? Opportunity first comes before fate. Since you appeared at that time, it can only mean that it was your chance!"
"That's right." Ling Xiao agreed, "This kind of thing is normal. You don't need to feel any psychological burden."
"Besides, Changqing has gained a lot in Wuding Bridge because of you. Even if he wins the title, his current results may not be good, so you don't owe him anything."
Shi Dingyan smiled and said, "Didn't you see that he didn't come this time? It's because he got rich overnight and is currently in retreat to improve himself."
"I see."
Shen Qian was also surprised why he didn't see Liu Changqing coming to the Magic City. It turned out that he had gone into seclusion again.
Speaking of which, Lao Liu was really a martial arts fanatic. Shen Qian hardly saw any hobbies in him, and he didn't seem to be interested in women. Gu Diao
...Maybe it wasn't like this in the past. After all, there is that pink USB flash drive as evidence, but I don't know what stimulation happened later, and it became like this now.
"Third Senior Brother, you are all gathered in the Demon City, but is there anything big going on?"
At this time, Shen Qian had time to ask the key point.
If several of the big guys appeared in the magic city, they made a special trip to visit him. Shen Qian felt that they didn't have that much respect.
Several senior brothers and sisters seem to be living a leisurely life, but in fact they are extremely busy. After all, with their strength, it is impossible to really be idle.
"Your third senior brother was invited to be the special guest of this Nine-Day War. I happened to be in the Magic City to do some errands, and your fourth senior brother came here for you."
Ling Xiao put down the tea cup and smiled lightly.
"for me?"
For such a grand event as the Nine Heavens Contest, many top experts must be invited. Whether they are watching the ceremony or hosting the ceremony, they all have their own positions. But the fourth senior brother came specifically for him, and Shen Qian was a little confused.
"Protect the Way."
Wu Jun spit out two words.
Shen Qian was stunned, then took a deep breath, first saluted Wu Jun, and then saluted again to an invisible place outside the window.
Seeing that Shen Qian figured out the joints so quickly, Shi Dingyan also smiled with relief.
The Magic City was gathering momentum due to a huge event, and almost half of China's attention was attracted. It can be said that there is a mixed bag of good and bad, and the situation is extremely complicated.
Although the possibility of an accident is low, this is not a reason to let Shen Qian face everything alone.
Wu Jun is the man who will appear behind Shen Qian at critical moments.
In fact, Wu Jun had already protected Shen Qian once when he was in Beidu, but he didn't know it.
And Shen Qian can probably understand that this is most likely the designation of the boss Gao.
Therefore, he bowed to the teacher who was far away.
…
After a brief chat, Shi Dingyan and others did not stay much longer and asked to leave one after another.
The third senior brother also booked a room at the Magic City Hotel, but the fourth senior brother who was to protect Shen Qian did not stay here, and Ling Xiao also had another place to go.
Cheng Qingqing hesitated to speak. After looking at Shen Qian with a half-smile and giving him a "dirty" gesture, she swayed away.
So Shen Qian could only touch his nose and turn his gaze to the only figure still in the suite at this moment.
The Eighth Senior Sister gently wrung her fingers and sat quietly in the corner of the living room.
From the time Shen Qianjin arrived when Shi Dingyan and others left, she never changed her posture and remained silent.
Except when Shen Qian was being checked by Shi Dingyan and three others, she once cast a concerned look, at other times, it was as if she didn't exist.
When Shi Dingyan and others left, it was as if they had forgotten her existence and no one mentioned her.
Shen Qian had mixed feelings in his heart.
The third senior brother and others all had their own purposes in coming to the Magic City, but Ji Ruoshui had no reason.
It was already obvious why she was here.
With Ji Ruoshui's character, she was willing to leave the Tower of Babel, which was obviously her comfort zone, and go to the Magic City just to see him.
The affection in it was so heavy that Shen Qian was suffocated.
Shen Qian is sometimes confused as to what virtues and abilities he has that can attract the favor of more than one peerless woman.
It seems that all changes occurred after the system was started, but it seems that the system cannot be blamed.
At this moment, Shen Qian suddenly understood why he felt so guilty only for Ding Yi.
Just because... Ding Yi was the only one who accompanied him when he was down and out.
"Eighth Senior Sister, why don't you sit over here?"
Shen Qian adjusted his mood and smiled.
"Um."
Ji Ruoshui nodded after hesitating for a moment, and then moved over carefully. When she sat next to Shen Qian, her classically beautiful cheeks were already red.
"I brought you peaches..."
"Sister, I miss you."
After a brief silence, the two spoke almost at the same time.
Ji Ruoshui had just taken out a huge peach from her sleeve, but she was stunned when she heard what Shen Qian said. She stared at Shen Qian blankly, forgetting her words for a moment.
Now, Shen Qian's state of mind was not only tempered, but at least he was at the level of a veteran. However, he smiled very naturally, and then he reached out and took Ji Ruoshui into his arms.
Ji Ruoshui's body was stiff at first, then softened after a while, and he gently leaned his head on Shen Qian's arms.
But Shen Qian could still feel her trembling.
The two of them had obviously done more intimate things, even though they were all under special circumstances, but Shen Qian had not expected Ji Ruoshui to be so nervous now.
After all, when Jingcheng parted, a guqin song had broken the relationship between the two in a sense.
"Sister, you..."
"Um?"
"nothing."
Shen Qian thought for a while and swallowed back the vague doubt that always existed in his heart.
His relationship with Ji Ruoshui can be said to be the most sudden and unreasonable. Others, whether Jiang Xuan or Huo Ling'er, at least have traces to follow. Yuan You and Wan Ning can also explain it with women's natural worship of men. .
Only Ji Ruoshui and Shen Qian couldn't figure it out.
Besides, it was actually the system that did something wrong in the first place.
There must be something about Ji Ruoshui that attracts the system, but Shen Qian is not sure yet what it is.
Or is there a possibility that there is something about him that attracts her?
…
Shen Qian never expected that Shi Dingyan and others really ignored Ji Ruoshui and didn't even help her open a room.
Fortunately, Shen Qian lived in a suite and there was no shortage of rooms. He could only place Ji Ruoshui in his own residence first.
After teaching for a long time, Ji Ruoshui finally managed to understand how to use the smart home. At least it was not a big problem to take a hot bath. Only then did Shen Qian help Ji Ruoshui, who was getting nervous again, close the door.
Immediately, Shen Qian's bracelet vibrated.
"Second Senior Sister?" Shen Qian answered the phone in surprise.
"Have you had enough romance?" Cheng Qingqing said in a lazy and teasing voice, "I'm almost growing hairy sitting at the door."
"Why are you sitting at the door?" Shen Qian wondered, and at the same time he was surprised that the other party knew the time so accurately, but when he thought about it, Shen Qian knew...she must have been peeping.
Cheng Qingqing's mental strength is far superior to his, and it is not easy to watch a live broadcast through the wall.
"Have you been in the restricted area for too long and you have forgotten your other identity?"
Even through the bracelet, Shen Qian seemed to see Cheng Qingqing rolling his eyes, "You are a student of Jiangzhong Junwu, and I am the teacher leading the team this time. Are you still participating in 'Treading the Nine Heavens'?"
"Are we gathering?" Shen Qian finally took a sip.
"Nonsense!" Cheng Qingqing said angrily, "Are you planning to participate in the competition without even knowing the rules? Damn it, let's assemble in the big conference room on the first floor!"
