Chapter 2184 Meeting the Seniors (First update in May, please give me a guaranteed monthly ticket)
Hearing Jing Yuexin's words, Jiang Hui's face suddenly became extremely bitter, "My good Fairy Jing..."
"The treasures in the forbidden area do not naturally belong to Hongyeling."
"After all, this small world was set up by the upper realm. Everyone can use it, but not too much."
"But this small world is too unfriendly to Cangwu," Jing Yuexin said seriously.
"The boss is easy to talk to. If it were me, I would have destroyed him right away!"
"Can you two stop singing the same tune?" Jiang Hui slapped her forehead in distress, "Can you wait a little longer..."
Before she could finish her words, Qu Jianlei stood up, followed by Jing Yuexin.
Everyone turned their eyes to the distance, where several flying boats were approaching rapidly.
There are marks of the forces to which the flying boats belong, firstly the Book Pavilion, followed by the Taoist Palace and the Academy of Arts.
The five major forces only lacked the Sea of Bitterness and the Star Palace.
Considering that Hall Master Jiang and the guards are here, only Ku Hai is the only place where no one comes.
The ones who got off the flying boat of the Book Pavilion were Master Yulin and the Third Pavilion Master, while those who came from the Taoist Palace were Master Wen Yuhua and two other True Immortals.
Those who came from the Academy of Arts were the elder of Beihai and two true immortals, but there were no super bosses among them.
As soon as the foolish Lord came, he grabbed the right to speak and was as annoying as ever.
He said that the One Temple and Four Sacred Mountains had communicated and would assist Hongye Ridge in conducting relevant tests.
After all, he is just a close guard, and the five major forces are all worried that Hongyeling will suddenly make some moves.
If someone is there to accompany you, can you at least give some advice at the critical moment? If you really can't persuade them, you can still pass on the message.
Of course, they not only have a supervisory role, but also have to help Hongyeling and run errands, otherwise it would be too unfriendly.
For example, if Lord Qu Ling still wants to capture the demon for testing, they will help without charging any fees.
Ultimately, it is necessary to maintain effective communication and friendly contact.
However, it's not that the Lord of Foolishness is completely incapable of speaking nice words, even if they are a bit blunt.
Finally, he said, "The main thing is that if we have more contact with you, we can also learn more. This... we are looking forward to it."
Qu Jianlei glanced at him with a bit of disdain in his eyes, "Then I'll trouble you, Master Hua, to capture the demon."
It was no secret that his relationship with Dao Palace was average, and he didn't mind showing his impatience with Huazhu.
Lord Yuhua nodded in agreement without hesitation, but at the same time said that it was impossible to capture too many demons, and asked Lord Quling to understand.
After all, such experiments are not good for the entire Cangwu world, so it is better to control it.
However, then again, the Dharma Protectors originally wanted to stop this experiment, but now they have to let it go.
After all, compared to destroying the Forgotten Peninsula, these minor tests are really nothing.
Just like if you want to open a window, it is best to first recommend removing the roof.
The inability to capture too many demons is the last stubbornness of the five major forces.
Qu Jianlei did not go too far and even hosted a banquet for the other party that evening.
After eating and drinking, when everyone was about to leave, Qu Jianlei spoke up, "Fellow Daoist Jin Ge, please stay."
Jin Ge Zhenxian came from the Academy of Arts. He didn't say much the whole night, but his eyes rolled around and he seemed very curious.
Three True Immortals came to the Academy of Arts, with the elder from Beihai as the most respected. Hearing this, he stopped in astonishment and said, "Then I will wait too."
After waiting for the guests to leave, Qu Jianlei activated the formation and smiled bitterly at the Beihai elder, "What does this mean?"
"I knew it couldn't be hidden," the Beihai elder spread his hands towards Jin Ge Zhenxian, "Don't you think so?"
"Well," Jin Ge Zhenxian nodded and looked at Qu Jianlei, "I heard that you didn't want to see me... a kid from the outside world?"
"It's really the Master of Arts in person!" Qu Jianlei raised his hand and bowed, "Excuse me, except for you, who in Cangwu is not from the outside world?"
If someone had pointed out that he was from the outside world when he first came to Cangwu, he would only have two choices - to silence them or to escape.
But it really doesn't matter now. Even if the five major forces reject him together, the worst that can happen is that he can hide back in Dongsheng.
As the old saying goes, do good things without worrying about the future. As long as you do things well, there is nothing to worry about.
"Your outside world... is not ordinary," Jin Ge Zhenxian looked at him and shook his head, "Your experience is very complicated."
Qu Jianlei's heart sank slightly. Could it be that you can still see my previous life?
However, his face remained expressionless, and he calmly replied, "The realm doesn't think I'm a heretic, but others... may not think so."
What about the comments of the great powers? He once asked in this world that ordinary Cangwu people might not be more qualified to live here than him.
"I'm not here to investigate your identity," Jin Ge Zhenxian smiled, "In fact, I'm not from Cangwu either."
"Huh?" Qu Jianlei was stunned for a moment, and looked at the Beihai Elder, only to find that the other party also had a confused look on his face.
"When Cangwu was first born, I was not far away," Immortal Jin Ge mentioned casually, without any intention of saying more.
Qu Jianlei didn't intend to ask more questions. He didn't even know the other party's intention, so there was no need to get into too much detail for the time being.
"I thought you were very old-fashioned, but this is... a clone?"
"It's almost as good as my real self," said the Immortal Jin Ge. There was no weirdness in his voice at all, and he was no different from a human cultivator.
However, the expression on Elder Beihai's face was a little strange.
He has lived in the Academy of Arts for more than a thousand years, but even five days ago, he didn't know that the Master of Arts had such a side.
In the minds of all the practitioners in the Academy of Arts, the Master of Arts is a very mechanical, unsympathetic being, a bit like a puppet.
Five days ago, he brought a group of disciples to Mu Zun to verify some spells. While waiting, they talked about the invasion of demons.
There was some noise during the conversation, but it was not intentional to disturb Mu Zun. He just felt sorry that he could not study magic in the near future.
The disaster posed by the demons became more and more serious. The practitioners in the academy could not remain immune and had to continue their research behind closed doors.
Except for a few projects that cannot be stopped or are aimed at the demons, all other research should be put aside and all efforts should be made to prepare for battle.
Some disciples couldn't understand, so Elder Beihai had to persuade them and explain the current situation.
There is no way. There are too many practitioners who are studying behind closed doors in the academy. They are truly oblivious to what is happening outside and do not understand the severity of the situation.
During the explanation, Red Leaf Ridge was a topic that could not be avoided, and Elder Beihai also talked a lot about it.
After verifying the magic, he also greeted the clay-like Master of Magic and said that there would be fewer people coming in the next period of time.
This is what should be expected, and it also shows the academy’s respect for the Master of Art.
Unexpectedly, that night, the Immortal Jin Ge came to his room and asked, "Why doesn't that guy want to see me?"
Elder Beihai's scalp was numb at that time - I am in my lair in the academy, how could someone get so close to me?
Once he figures out that the other party is Shu Zun's clone, then everything will be explained.
In the Academy of Magic, no one has ever dared to impersonate the Master of Magic!
Later, he specifically asked the dean of the Academy of Magic, and the dean said that the Master of Magic indeed had a clone, and that it was only for you to know about it, and don’t spread it to anyone else!
Elder Beihai did not quite understand why Shu Zun wanted to go see Lord Qu Ling. How could this senior actually take the initiative to expose his clone just to see the other party?
He said that he could go again and sincerely invite Master Qu Ling to come.
However, the senior said that he wanted to go not to care about such trivial matters, but because of other things.
Shu Zun had no intention of talking more about his original body and clone, but instead asked with interest, "Are you planning to destroy the Forgotten Peninsula?"
"Under extreme circumstances, this possibility cannot be ruled out," Qu Jianlei replied in a deep voice, "because it is not friendly to the Cangwu Realm."
Jin Ge Zhenxian pondered for a moment and continued to ask, "Do you think you can do this just because you have an intersection with this world?"
This question was a bit unkind. Qu Jianlei replied in a deep voice, "If there is a spirit in the realm, maybe it doesn't want me to do this."
This answer was quite unexpected to Jin Ge Zhenxian. He raised his eyebrows in surprise, "You actually think so?"
"Who isn't afraid of death?" Qu Jianlei replied seriously, "But if I really did that, it might not be a bad thing for the realm spirit."
Having said this, he stopped talking.
The True Immortal Jin Ge did not say anything either. He was a golden spirit enlightened by a powerful being. He should have some empathy for non-living things like the realm.
After waiting for a long time, he finally asked, "Why do you think so?"
Qu Jianlei replied in a deep voice, "For this kind of question, you should actually ask the Book Pavilion. They are good at debate."
"If you really want me to answer, I can only say 'You are not a fish, so how can you know the joy of a fish?'"
The answer he just made took into account the other party's empathy, so he just said what he wanted to say.
If it were a debate, he wouldn't be afraid, but... he really couldn't muster the interest.
Jin Ge Zhenxian was both angry and amused, "You said it yourself, everyone is afraid of death."
"Has it ever lived?" Qu Jianlei asked sternly, "Senior, can you confirm for it that it likes this way of existence?"
"As expected, it's the nerd's trick again," Jin Ge Zhenxian was a little bored, "In fact, you are just self-centered!"
Qu Jianlei laughed when he heard this, thinking that if a person does not work for himself, he will be punished by heaven and earth. Is this wrong?
It's just the same old topic, it depends on where you sit.
However, the other party was obviously a sensible person - strictly speaking, an intelligent life who understood the situation, so Qu Jianlei was too lazy to explain more.
Immortal Jin Ge was not interested in discussing this topic anymore and instead raised a new question.
"Can you tell me how you plan to deal with the Forgotten Peninsula?"
"It's not very convenient," Qu Jianlei shook his head decisively, "I'm still not sure what you think about this matter, Senior."
"Actually, this is not my main purpose," Jin Ge Zhenxian couldn't help but mutter.
With his level of cultivation, there is really no need to hide many thoughts.
Doing so is not only unseemly, it also makes communication difficult and can easily lead to misjudgment - this level of misjudgment is terrible.
However, he still gave an explanation, "I don't have much connection with this realm... but we have spent a long time together after all."
Upon hearing this, Elder Beihai's expression instantly became serious.
