"Brother, that person over there is so strange!" Just when Xu Qian was still thinking about what to do next, Shanshan seemed to have discovered something.
There was a figure standing on the mountain in the distance, motionless, but looking in the direction of Dantang.
"What a gentle and humble gentleman."
Gentle as jade, modest as a gentleman, these are all evaluations of people based on their character and conduct, and they can't be seen at a glance. But for the man in a plain robe in the distance, these eight words naturally came to Xu Qian's mind. .
"Let's go over and take a look." As soon as he finished speaking, he took Shanshan and flew towards the top of the mountain.
Xiyao was so anxious that she had no time to care about someone who didn't want to talk to her. She was about to call Xu Qian to stop, but after she shouted half a word, she found that the person had already flown far away, so she had no choice but to follow him.
Watching Xu Qian and others leave, a Nie family member who was worrying about how to kill Xi Yao without being discovered by many powerful men in the Dan Hall was overjoyed. Zhengchou couldn't lead these people far away, but he didn't expect that he would leave. Now that he is gone, it is okay not to kill him, but this person is not at ease, and it will be difficult to deal with him if he leaves him alone, so he plans to hide his presence and follow him quietly to take a look.
There are many powerful people in Dantang. In order to avoid being troubled by any powerful person, Xu Qian has always controlled his spiritual consciousness, which also gave people behind him an opportunity to take advantage of him.
Xu Qian stood about ten meters away from the man and took the initiative to salute: "This is Ye Guzhou's first time coming to Dan Valley. Are you from this Dan Valley?"
The man slowly turned around, his elegance was natural and there was no trace of deliberate effort.
"This man is handsome, but he is not shocking. He just has a special temperament that is difficult for ordinary people to compare with. But why does he give me the feeling that I am willing to get close to him? Is it...impossible! I There is absolutely no problem with my orientation!" A terrible thought exploded in Xiao Xu's mind, making him feel nervous.
"I'm Yin Peng, I wonder if there's anything I can do to help Brother Ye." Yin Peng smiled and his voice was gentle and pleasant, which made people feel comfortable.
The other party was so easy to talk to, but Xu Qian was a little embarrassed to speak. At this time, Xi Yao also came closer, "Senior Ye, we don't have time. If we can't enter the alchemy hall, all our efforts will be wasted."
"Oh? Do you want to enter the alchemy hall?"
Xi Yao heard that this strange man seemed to have some skills. She didn't pay attention to this man at first, but now she suddenly became energetic. But before she could speak, Xu Qian had already taken the lead.
"Brother Yin, do you have any ideas?"
"Just walk in. How difficult is it?"
The man from the Nie family followed, and only then did he notice Yin Peng, "So I came here to look for someone. Who is this person? Could he be their accomplice?"
Suddenly, this person died inexplicably without any preparation.
Xu Qian's spiritual consciousness suddenly felt something strange around him, but he soon returned to normal. Just when he was full of doubts, Yin Peng's voice came, "Brother Ye, do you want to go in with me?"
"You mean, you can take us in?"
Xiyao didn't quite believe this man's boast. Maybe it was because she had seen too much ugliness in the past two days, or maybe it was how unattainable the Alchemy Hall was in her heart. She heard that Yin Peng had no way to help her. Things were said so easily, and I decisively gave up my nascent interest in this person.
"Senior Ye, otherwise, I think those people just want some treasures. All I can bring out here are some pills, which may be nothing to the disciples of Dan Valley. In case they don't like it, please Senior Ye lends a helping hand and can lend me some treasures, and I will definitely return them double in the future."
Xiyao was planning to take care of these disciples who were guarding the gate. It would have been possible in normal times, but now they were targeting her, but she was still kept in the dark about all this.
"Xiyao, things are not that simple." Xu Qian had guessed it a long time ago, so he just said a simple word to Xi Yao. His eyes never left Yin Peng from the beginning to the end.
"Follow me!" Yin Peng didn't say much and flew directly towards the Dan Hall.
"Brother, this person gives me a very strange feeling, indescribably strange." Shanshan muttered.
Xu Qian looked at Shanshan in surprise. He had felt this way since the first time he saw Yin Peng, so he could relate to the "strange" Shanshan said.
"Shanshan, are you saying that you don't think he is a good person?"
"I can't explain clearly," Shanshan shook her head slightly, "I just feel a sense of intimacy, as if I have known him for a long time."
Have you known each other for a long time?
Shanshan's strange transformation skills and Shanshan's true identity are secrets that Xu Qian cannot avoid but is difficult to understand. When Shanshan transforms back into a girl, her memories of the transformation period and her past will disappear. During her transformation period, every time she faces a powerful enemy, it is not a good time to ask questions.
Now Shanshan feels that Yin Peng looks familiar. Do they really know each other?
"He looked at me strangely just now." Just before Yin Peng flew out, he did look at Shanshan with deep meaning.
Xu Qian looked at Yin Peng's back and said, "This man is full of weirdness, so you should be careful."
Yin Peng led the three of them to the entrance of the Alchemy Hall, with Xi Yao following behind. She was very conflicted in her heart. She hoped that the strange man could really take them in, but she thought it was absolutely impossible.
Sure enough, the gatekeeper stopped Yin Peng.
It was still the disciple of the Nie family, "I said I couldn't let you in, why did you come back?"
Yin Peng didn't say anything and handed the disciple an invitation.
Double stacked rosette!
As soon as this invitation appeared, there was a complete silence.
The most anxious person was of course Xi Yao. She didn't know what this invitation meant. She only saw that it was different from her own. She also found that all the gatekeepers were stunned. She secretly thought that it was this person. It was a forged invitation.
So, she quickly took out her invitation card again and went forward. Before she could reach Yin Peng, everyone except the Nie family disciples all moved out of the way, bowed their heads and said in unison: "Welcome the descendants of Yin Zu!"
There is only one invitation with the double-stacked rosette pattern, which represents the descendants of the Yin ancestors. As long as someone shows up with this invitation, no matter whether the descendants of the Yin ancestors themselves or not, they can bring people in, and this kind of dignity There is no limit to the number of accompanying persons for invitations of different identities. The disciples of the Nie family still wanted to stop it, but they also knew that they couldn't do it. For so many years, the double-layered Luosong Tie has been given away every time, but this is the first time that someone has actually come.
Xu Qian was also startled. He had heard a little bit about the legend of Dangu, but he didn't know the details, but he still knew about Yin Zu and Mrs. Yin Zu.
"Descendants of the Yin ancestors? Are they the descendants of the legendary alchemy cultivator couple? By the way, his surname is Yin, and he appeared in this alchemy valley..."
Yin Peng walked into the Dan Hall naturally without any unnecessary expression, followed closely by Xu Qian and Shanshan. Xi Yao was still in a state of shock and followed mechanically.
"Why are you helping us?"
"Brother Ye, I'm not helping you, I'm helping her."
Xu Qian subconsciously believed that the "she" in Yin Peng's mouth referred to Xi Yao, so this explanation was acceptable. It is reasonable to think that Yin Peng, as a descendant of the founder of Alchemy Valley, is familiar with the young genius alchemist Jiang Wan, so he would lend a helping hand.
In the alchemy hall, a majestic-looking white-haired old man stood up and announced: "The alchemy competition for fifth-level alchemists has begun! All alchemists participating in the competition are invited to enter their respective alchemy tables."
This old man was wearing a black robe, and the pattern of fire and spiritual plants on his chest was the emblem of Dangu. Everyone in the Dan Hall knows this old man, because he is Ao Chen, the current person in charge of the six cities in Dangu Yunzhou.
A total of forty-three level five alchemists participated in the alchemy competition. After hearing Ao Chen's order, they all walked into the arena. Jiang Wan also slowly stood up, calmed down, then walked into the central area and walked towards his alchemy platform.
He walks very slowly. This is the place where he won countless honors three years ago, and it is also the journey he will embark on after three years of hard training. However, this proud man's steps seemed extremely heavy at the moment.
Suddenly, there was an uproar in the venue. Jiang Wan, who was immersed in pain and anger, also felt that something was wrong and instinctively looked around.
The head of the Nie family frowned, with murderous intent in his eyes.
"Is that... Yin Peng?" A well-established person from the Alchemy Valley recognized Yin Peng and was the first to reveal the identity of the person who was entering the Alchemy Hall.
Yin Peng? Why is he here?
