Guangzhou Parallel Palace is built on the mountain with numerous palaces.
The pavilions, trees and rocks are so beautiful. . .
The powerful have special palaces to entertain them, but for young people like Chu Chen and Xiucai, Lord Long has opened a large courtyard for everyone to rest and wait.
Xuan Lingzi was dressed in a moon-white Taoist robe. He was slender and handsome, and had a detached aura that remained untainted by the troubled world.
It is quite eye-catching in the crowd, and it is not an exaggeration to say that it stands out from the crowd.
At first glance, Xuan Lingzi looks good to the senses.
As long as he doesn't open his mouth or get into close contact, he will definitely be very popular.
"Fellow Taoist Xuan Lingzi, what a coincidence!"
At least they knew each other, and Chu Chen didn't avoid seeing him.
In the Du Guan compound, Chu Chen and Wang Pingping had already announced their family status, and they all knew their origins and teachers.
Xuan Lingzi was a little surprised when he saw Chu Chen at first glance.
But after thinking about it for a moment, he vaguely guessed something and asked:
"Fellow Daoist Chu, have you joined the Nine Nether Alliance?"
"good!"
Chu Chen nodded and admitted openly.
"No wonder."
Xuan Lingzi suddenly realized that, even if a disciple of a small sect has good talent, if he does not have the qualifications of a Dragon Lord, it may be difficult for him to get ahead.
Chu Chen frowned slightly.
Although Xuan Lingzi didn't say anything, he always felt that this tone sounded strange.
"Brother Chu, I heard that Long Jun likes to support young leaders. I would like to ask, what did Long Jun support you? What promises did you make?"
Xuan Lingzi didn't realize that his tone caused discomfort at all, but continued to inquire.
Chu Chen was quite speechless. You knew you were being presumptuous, yet you still asked.
As expected, he was a disciple trained by the Hermit Sect, and he didn't understand the world at all.
We've just met each other not long ago, and we don't have much friendship yet, yet you ask so many questions.
Chu Chen thought that the other party was a disciple from the Hermit Sect, so he did not argue with him and said:
"I didn't get support from Mr. Long. You asked the wrong person."
Xuan Lingzi was surprised.
He specifically inquired about it. Generally speaking, there are two situations when the Nine Nether Alliance recruits members.
One type is a young leader who has outstanding talent in cultivation and has been supported by the Dragon Lord, and the other type is a strong person who has achieved success in cultivation.
Obviously, the colleague in front of me does not meet the latter conditions.
"Fellow Daoist Chu, if you don't want to say it, just say it. Why do you need to lie to me?"
Xuan Lingzi was quite displeased. Ever since he entered the world and practiced cultivation, he disliked others deceiving him the most, especially using common sense to deceive him.
"Believe it or not."
Chu Chen shook his head and didn't explain much.
Xuan Lingzi felt a little unhappy and wanted to just throw away his sleeves, but when he looked around, he didn't find anyone he knew.
There were people coming and going at the banquet, and it was a bit embarrassing for a person to stand alone.
So, he still walked with Chu Chen.
The scholar has a wide range of friends. Since joining the Nine Nether League, he has met many people of the same mind. As soon as he entered Guangping Palace, he chatted with his friends.
Lin Miaoyin went to find the dragon girl Qingying.
Chu Chen doesn't have many friends, but he still knows a lot of people from the Nine Nether Alliance.
For example, the Great Sage Swallowing Heaven and the Great King Black Wind.
These two are both monsters, with well-known nicknames, but their Taoist cultivation is only at the seventh level.
However, both of them were about to break through, and their strength was extraordinary, so they both turned into human forms.
The Great Sage Swallowing Heaven is a toad, and his bloodline can be traced back to the three-legged golden toad. His magical powers are extraordinary, and he can swallow and refine all the poisons in the world to blend into his own body. His potential is extremely outstanding, and he is expected to become a peerless great demon.
King Black Wind is the spirit of a black bear. This black bear is related to Buddhism. He wears cassocks, eats fast and chants Buddha's name, and is quite good in spiritual ways.
"Fellow Daoist Xiliu, this way."
The Great Sage Swallowing Heaven and the Great King Black Wind called Chu Chen's Taoist title in Jiuyou League "Taoist Xiliu", which was quite familiar to him.
Chu Chen greeted her with a smile. In addition to communicating more with Princess Ying, he also had close contact with these two demons.
Especially after recently serving as the first-class deputy squad leader and establishing a mutual aid association, he often talked with Eryao to learn about the situation in Longling Mountain.
"Who is this?"
The Great Sage Swallowing Heaven and the Great King Black Wind pointed at Xuan Lingzi.
"I have a friend, Xuan Lingzi, a direct disciple of the Hidden World Sect."
Chu Chen introduced casually.
When the two demons heard this, they were in awe.
"Disrespect, disrespect!"
"I've met you two!"
Xuan Lingzi cupped his hands reservedly, neither cold nor hot.
The two demons didn't care about Xuan Lingzi's attitude, but reminisced about old times with Chu Chen.
After the group exchanged pleasantries, the topic soon turned to the Dragon King's banquet.
The Great Sage Swallowing Heaven is mysterious:
"Thanks to Princess Ying this time, Mr. Long got a lot of luck. It is said that as long as you pass Mr. Long's test, you will get an opportunity."
Chu Chen was a little surprised, he had never heard of this.
Princess Ying just asked him to come over and didn't say much else.
"Fellow Taoist Tuntian, are you serious about this?"
King Heifeng said: "Fellow Taoist Xiliu, this is indeed the case. Hehehe, I heard that the Dragon Lord's lucky draw is to enter the Dragon Palace's treasure house to pick out treasures. This is a rare opportunity."
"It is a rare opportunity for you to eat fast and recite the Buddha Bear, and it is a great opportunity for me. There is the true blood of the three-legged golden toad in the Dragon Palace treasure house. If I get a little more, it will be great." The Great Sage Swallowing the Sky has a look on his face. Longing and eager to try.
Chu Chen suddenly realized.
"No wonder Princess Ying told me to come. She said there might be a surprise. It turned out that the surprise was this."
"That's not true!"
...
Xuan Lingzi heard the conversation between several people. He had a cold temper and did not interrupt, but he was also uneasy in his heart.
In fact, his main purpose for coming to the Dragon Lord Banquet this time was to win the Dragon Lord's prize.
The core practice method of Taixuan Sect is the "Taixuan Treasure Book", but the book is not complete, and the second part of the book has serious defects.
It just so happened that it was said that Diyuan Longjun's Dragon Palace Treasure House was suspected of containing the second chapter of [Taixuan Treasure Book]. He followed the master's secret order and went to Longjun's banquet specially, intending to win the lottery in one fell swoop, and then ask Longjun for the next part of [Taixuan Treasure Book] articles.
Originally, everything was going smoothly. The master successfully helped him get an invitation to the Dragon King's banquet. He could just go to the banquet today.
Unfortunately, it backfired.
During my daily practice last night, I was riddled with bad luck and unexpectedly attracted a group of evil spirits to invade.
Among them, there is also an extremely powerful extraterritorial demon.
Relying on the master's secret technique, he naturally did not become obsessed with it, but he was plundered by the devil and lost a lot of energy.
It wouldn't be a big deal to lose some essence, but it would be very fatal now that it was a critical moment.
"It's really unlucky~ I hope Long Jun's test doesn't involve fighting, otherwise I will be ashamed of my elders."
Xuan Lingzi prayed secretly and couldn't help but look forward to it.
Just as the two people and the two demons were talking, the dragon girl Qingying rushed to the courtyard.
In the courtyard, except for Chu Chen and others, everyone else is a young leader from all over Qingzhou, and has a close relationship with the Nine Nether Alliance. Everyone knows the dragon girl Qingying.
Upon seeing Qingying, everyone greeted her one after another.
"Princess Ying!"
"Congratulations to Princess Ying for breaking through the bottleneck!"
...
As soon as Princess Ying appeared, all the stars were in admiration, and everyone's eyes fell on Qingying. There were no exceptions for young leaders.
Qingying looked around and saw Chu Chen in the crowd. She nodded with a smile and said hello to Chu Chen.
Then he said to everyone:
"The banquet is about to begin, please come with me."
Everyone agreed and followed Qingying, filing out.
King Black Wind smiled naively and said proudly: "Did you see that Princess Ying just said hello to me?"
The Great Sage Tuntian was disdainful: "I know Princess Ying first, and she is the most familiar with me. She clearly said hello to me."
"fart!"
