Taoist Taoist Wild Dog is a sinister person. On the surface, he treats Ji Liao respectfully, but secretly he has been speculating on Ji Liao's identity.
Although Taoist Wild Dog helped Ji Liao, the world of immortality is cruel, and a moment of weakness will result in his body being shattered. Ji Liao has already seen through this, so Ji Liao cannot allow Taoist Wild Dog to continue to live in the world. This is the way to survive. The law of big fish eating small fish and small fish eating shrimps is no one’s fault.
Ji Liao held a star-shielding umbrella and flew toward the mountain gate of Soulwind Valley. Not long after he had fled, he saw two rainbows flying out from the end of the mountain range and shooting towards him.
Ji Liao paused and hovered in mid-air.
Not long after, the two rays of light came close to Ji Liao. The light dimmed, revealing a man and a woman.
The two men were similar in age, both in their twenties. They wore uniform brown robes, and both were in the early stage of god refining.
The man was handsome and the woman was calm and beautiful. Standing together, they looked like boys and girls in New Year pictures.
As soon as the two fell down, they immediately dispersed their consciousness and swept towards Ji Liao. When they felt that Ji Liao's aura did not leak out at all, the two of them were obviously stunned.
Looking at each other, the man winked at the woman.
The woman nodded understandingly, looked at Ji Liao and cupped her hands, "Zhou Xiao from Soul Wind Valley, I have met Taoist friend."
Ji Liao smiled softly and returned the salute, "Zhen Long."
The man's eyes flickered when he saw Ji Liao's reaction, he thought for a moment, then he also cupped his hands and said briefly, "Shen Yuxiao."
"I wonder where Fellow Daoist Zhen came from. Why did you come to Soulwind Valley?" Zhou Xiao asked immediately as Shen Yuxiao finished speaking.
Ji Liao expected that he would be questioned by the people guarding the mountain when he came here, so he had already thought of his words.
"I am just a casual cultivator who ascended from the lower world. I came to your sect to find an old friend who ascended before me."
"Huh? Ascended monk?" Shen Yuxiao couldn't help but be surprised when she heard that Ji Liao was an ascended monk.
There are very few resources in the Shard World. The monks who want to cultivate to the realm of god-refining and ascend to the Dust Star have to go through countless years of bloodshed. Therefore, the monks who ascend in the Dust Star are fierce by nature, and are extremely scheming, and extremely difficult to win over. In Dust Star, if monks of the same level provoke ascended monks like them, they will undoubtedly get into big trouble. This is something that all the monks in Dust Star know.
Therefore, ordinary Dust Star monks keep a respectful distance from ascended monks like Ji Liao. Even if the other party shows good intentions, most Dust Star monks will not believe it.
"Yeah! I just ascended five hundred years ago." Ji Liao smiled and nodded.
"That old friend of fellow Taoist is now in our Soul Wind Valley?" Shen Yuxiao asked.
"He should be a monk who ascended 1,500 years ago, named Zhen Huantian." Ji Liao replied.
"Zhen Hantian?" Shen Yuxiao frowned again after hearing the name, obviously not familiar with it.
"Hiss... Zhen Huantian!" Zhou Xiao on the side also repeated, and his eyes lit up after thinking for a moment, "Oh, I remembered it. Thousands of years ago, our ancestor accepted an ascended monk as his disciple. Now, It should be a deacon from the outer sect, I remember that person’s surname seems to be Zhen!”
After being reminded by Zhou Xiaoyi, Shen Yuxiao suddenly realized and thought about it, "Oh yes, I have heard about the ancestor's disciple, but I have never been to the outer gate after thousands of years of guarding the mountain."
"Outer deacon?" Ji Liao whispered in his heart.
Among sects, the outer sect is not considered a sect disciple in the true sense. At best, it is an assessment level for the sect to accumulate disciples. Only those with outstanding performance can be promoted from the outer sect to the inner sect. Only those who enter the inner sect can be considered. In a true sense, I have joined a sect.
During this period, the outer sect disciples received very few cultivation resources, and the exercises they practiced were only some low-level exercises that no one wanted. At the same time, their status was low, even if they met inner sect disciples who were at a lower level than themselves. They have to be humble and swallow their anger, so the lives of outer disciples are generally extremely miserable.
The life of the outer sect disciples is like this, so naturally the deacons of the outer sect disciples are not much better. Although they are deacons, their status is much lower than that of some inner sect deacons and elders.
Ji Liao didn't know what Zhen Huantian went through when he arrived on Dust Star, but Zhen Huantian was one of the seven snow demon kings in Fanyun Continent, the king of the Teng Snake Tribe, and a fiery-tempered master. How could he endure being treated like this? The contrast between Bai Yan's job and this job is too great.
What surprised Ji Liao even more was that Zhen Hantian actually worshiped the ancestor of Soul Wind Valley as his teacher. With this status, he only became an outer deacon, which made Ji Liao even more confused.
Shen Yuxiao and Zhou Xiao looked at each other again, and then said, "Fellow Taoist, please forgive me, our Soul Wind Valley has been closed down a few years ago. Please allow me to go back and inform Zhen Huantian to come out to see you."
"Thank you!" Ji Liao said without saying much and cupped his hands.
Shen Yuxiao nodded slightly, then turned to Zhou Xiao and said, "Junior Sister, I'll go first."
"Yeah! Go ahead." Zhou Xiao responded.
Shen Yuxiao moved, turned into a stream of light and flew towards the mountain gate of Soul Wind Valley, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Ji Liao and Zhou Xiao were the only two people left in the void. Zhou Xiao's eyes scanned Ji Liao back and forth for a while, then he smiled faintly and said, "I don't know how you learned that Brother Zhen is in our Soul Wind Valley."
"Hahaha, there are a few comrades who ascended with him. I found out about this after looking for them first, so I thought of coming to see my old friend." Ji Liao replied with a smile.
"So that's it." Zhou Xiao obviously only knew Zhen Hantian and didn't know the reason for it. Ji Liao was confused after saying this, his eyes quickly turned, and then he asked again, "Just now There seems to be some aura fluctuation here, I wonder if you have noticed it?"
Ji Liao's eyebrows moved, and he randomly found an excuse to return, "Just now it seemed like two monsters of a high level were fighting. Now they are far away, and I didn't dare to get too close."
"Ha, fellow Taoist, please be careful. Dust star monsters are everywhere, and monks are often attacked by monsters."
"Thank you, fellow Taoist, for reminding me," Ji Liao said.
The two chatted wordlessly in the void, during which the woman Zhou Xiao mostly asked questions and Ji Liao answered them, and the questions they asked were all kinds of, just like an ignorant little girl asking an adult.
It's just that this kind of little idea can't be hidden from Ji Liao. It's nothing more than Zhou Xiao taking advantage of her body as a woman and deliberately showing curiosity to test Ji Liao.
"It seems that something happened to this Soul Wind Valley, otherwise a disciple guarding the mountain would not be so cautious." Ji Liao muttered heartily.
Less than half an hour later, two long rainbows flew out from the mountain gate of Soul Wind Valley, flying towards Ji Liao. Not long after, they arrived in front of Ji Liao, and fell down in a flash, revealing the figures of two men. , it was Shen Yuxiao who had gone back to look for someone, and Zhen Huantian, the father-in-law whom Ji Liao had not seen for many years.
At this time, Zhen Hantian was wearing a blue-grey Taoist robe, and the look on his face was the same as before, but the overbearing and domineering aura was much more restrained. At the same time, Ji Liao also sensed that Zhen Hantian had reached the late stage of god refining. The aura has begun to fluctuate vaguely, which is obviously a sign of a breakthrough.
Ji Liao felt relieved when he saw this scene.
Before the dust star ascended, Zhen Hantian was still in the middle stage of god refining, which was only more than 1,500 years ago. This has already raised his level to the current level. From this point of view, the founder of Soul Wind Valley has no influence on Zhen Hantian. Tian still cares a lot.
Ji Liao recognized Zhen Huantian, but Zhen Huantian didn't recognize Ji Liao.
But he saw a pair of vertical pupils looking back and forth on Ji Liao's body, and his consciousness spread over Ji Liao's body, and his face became even more confused.
"Hey you..."
"Brother Zhen, long time no see." When Zhen Hantian was about to speak, Ji Liao immediately interrupted.
"Uh... we..." Zhen Hantian hesitated.
"Hahaha, I met Master Milo some time ago. He told me that you were here, so I thought of coming here to have a look. I didn't expect that in just a thousand years, Brother Zhen's realm has already improved to what it is now."
"Huh? Milo?" Zhen Hantian sounded suspicious.
Shen Yuxiao and Zhou Xiao on the side looked at Ji Liao and Zhen Hantian. Seeing that Zhen Hantian still looked confused, their expressions could not help but change a little.
"Senior Zhen, is it possible that you don't know this person?" Shen Yuxiao asked.
Zhen Hantian's eyes swayed twice when he heard this. He looked at the demon boy in front of him and hesitated for a moment, "I recognize him. This is my friend from the lower world."
After receiving this answer, Shen Yuxiao and Zhou Xiao looked relieved and said with a smile, "In that case, Junior Sister Zhou and I will not disturb you here."
"Yeah!" Zhen Hantian nodded.
"Please!" Ji Liao raised his hand.
Shen Yuxiao and Zhou Xiao returned the salute, moved their bodies, and flew back across the sky towards the place where they came from.
After the two of them walked away, Zhen Hantian turned around and looked Ji Liao up and down, "Who the hell are you?"
When Ji Liao heard this, the corner of his mouth curled up, thinking that although Zhen Hantian's arrogant expression had become somewhat restrained, the tone of his words had not changed at all.
"There is a city nearby. Let's talk about it when we get there." After saying that, Ji Liao did not wait for Zhen Hantian to say anything else. He turned around and walked towards the horizon holding a paper umbrella.
"Tsk..." Zhen Hantian smacked his lips, stayed at Ji Liao's back for a moment, then followed him with his hands behind his back.
