low-key is king

Chapter 454 Are you kidding me?

dark night!

In a land temple that had no incense for a long time, a figure looked a little anxious, as if waiting for someone, but that person never showed up.

If Lu Xun and Du Baimei were here, they would have recognized that this person was Guan Zhongbao, a great cultivator of the seventh realm of Luoyou Mountain, who was seriously injured by a monster and escaped in embarrassment.

With Guan Zhongbao alone, he naturally didn't dare to trouble Lu Xun again. After all, he suffered a heavy loss last time, and he no longer had any treasures that could protect him.

Of course, this is also the premise that Guan Zhongbao doesn't know the big demon.

If he knew that every shot of the big monster was extremely short, and that he was drawing all of Lu Xun's power, then he might have another plan.

That day, Guan Zhongbao sent a letter to meet someone at the Earth Temple, but he had been waiting here for most of the night, but the person still didn't show up, which made him more and more irritable.

If the person did not receive the news, or did not come after receiving the news, or was delayed by something, then Guan Zhongbao might have to temporarily give up the pursuit of Lu Xun.

But he was extremely unwilling to let Guan Zhongbao go back like this, because when he went back like this, the holy lady of Luoyou Mountain would definitely ask him about the process, so how should he answer?

Even if it was Liu Ying's own initiative this time, since Liu Qinghan didn't intervene to stop it, it means that she acquiesced in this matter, and Guan Zhongbao was quite accurate on this point.

"Hey, Brother Guan, do you know how much it will cost me to give up my mission and come to help you?"

Just when Guan Zhongbao got a little impatient waiting, a slightly feminine voice suddenly entered his ears, which surprised him first, and then delighted him.

"Brother Nie, you are finally here!"

When Guan Zhongbao turned his gaze to the place where the sound came out, he saw an extremely thin and tall figure suddenly appearing there, and his aura was not under Guan Zhongbao's.

"Brother Guan hasn't answered my question yet!"

The strong Luo Youshan named Nie Ran didn't care about Guan Zhongbao's tricks, but repeated the question just now.

For him, it is natural to only talk about benefits and nothing else.

"This money-greedy guy is really not easy to fool!"

Originally, Guan Zhongbao wanted to praise the other party and let the other party help him unconditionally, but now hearing this guy talk like this, he naturally knew that this step would not work.

"Brother Nie, do you know who Guan is working for?"

Therefore, when Guan Zhongbao rolled his eyes, he had already changed the subject. Hearing his words, Nie Ran's expression changed as expected, and an extremely dazzling figure in Luoyou Mountain appeared in his mind recently.

Thinking of the Luoyou Mountain Saintess, Nie Ran felt a little hot in his heart.

In fact, he is not very old, and he can be regarded as a very talented person in Luoyou Mountain, so he naturally covets Liu Qinghan.

Of course, this kind of coveting cannot be said to be a real feeling for Liu Qinghan, but a kind of possessiveness. Even if Liu Qinghan was once married as a woman, he still wants to kiss her.

The reason is that the current Liu Qinghan is the No.1 of Luo Youshan's younger generation, and even has the opportunity to impact the entire Qingxuan world. What kind of talent is this?
Perhaps this was the real reason why Nie Ran traveled thousands of miles here to meet Guan Zhongbao. He wanted to use this matter to get into Liu Qinghan's eyes, otherwise the two sides might not have any chance of meeting each other.

"Hehe, Brother Guan, your main peak has nothing to do with our Gu Yufeng. If you want me to help you, you can't say nothing, right?"

Of course Nie Ran wouldn't say what he really thought in his heart, and what he said was the truth, and it was of no benefit, so why should he help this Guan Zhongbao?
There are good and bad relationships between the major sub-peaks of Luoyou Mountain, and even the masters of the main peaks are extremely ambitious, even coveting the position of the master of the main peak, wanting to replace them.

This may also be the reason why Luo Youshan can pass on the strength from generation to generation. If there is no such strong competition and no foreign enemies, how can the sect make progress?

Many sects lived too comfortably because they didn't have much power to resist when a strong enemy came, and they were eventually destroyed.

As a leader of the younger generation in Gu Yufeng's lineage, Nie Ran may be a head shorter when he sees Liu Qinghan, but he is not polite to this Guan Zhongbao whose strength is not superior to his own.

Moreover, those thoughts in Nie Ran's mind could not be brought to the surface. He believed that the other party also knew what he was like, and it was impossible not to pay some price.

Nie Ran has already come, whether to help or not is one thing, but since he is here, Guan Zhongbao will have to pay the price, as for the final result, it is up to Nie Ran to decide.

"Brother Nie, as long as you help me this time, I can help you kill three people, no matter who they are. Of course, the premise is that the realm is not above me!"

Guan Zhongbao thought about this mission and felt the scar on his face. He couldn't help but hate Lu Xun. When he said these words, Nie Ran's eyes lit up.

But Nie Ran didn't say anything immediately, he just stared blankly at Guan Zhongbao, wondering if this guy knew he had an enemy, so he had confidence in this?

"Including... the Yixian Peak!"

Seeing that Nie Ran was silent, Guan Zhongbao gritted his teeth and made things clearer.

As soon as these words came out, Nie Ran's eyes really shone brightly.

"make a deal!"

This time Nie Ran didn't drag his feet, and just slapped him directly.

Some things are inconvenient for him to do by himself, but if Guan Zhongbao from the main peak can do it for him, then everyone will be happy.

Nie Ran has an extremely powerful enemy, and he himself is not sure of winning. The most important thing is that that person is from the first-line peak, and his background is not much worse than theirs, Gu Yufeng.

On the surface, it is forbidden to fight with each other on Luoyou Mountain, but after so many years, in order to compete for resources and treasures, the relationship between the peaks is good or bad.

Gu Yufeng and Yixianfeng are two deadly rivals.

If it weren't for the main peak of Luoyou Mountain, or that ancestor Youpan, the two branches of the deputy peak would have already fought.

Nie Ran and someone from Yixian Peak have had a long-standing grudge. They were even ambushed by the other party once and almost died. It can be said that the two sides have forged a mortal enmity.

It's a pity that Nie Ran has never found a chance to take revenge. If Guan Zhongbao can accept his favor this time, the chance of revenge will increase linearly when the two join forces.

"Brother Guan, tell me about that person's situation?"

After Nie Ran made his decision, he didn't procrastinate, but when he finished speaking, when he heard Guan Zhongbao say that the man was only a fifth-level man, a look of displeasure instantly appeared on his face.

"Guan Zhongbao, are you kidding me?"

This time Nie Ran called him by his first name, obviously extremely dissatisfied.

The strength of the person in front of him is not inferior to him, he is a great cultivator with a small achievement in the seven realms, and he comes from Luoyou Mountain, which is a bit stronger than the lone monks in the same realm outside.

With a cultivation base that is two realms away, Guan Zhongbao unexpectedly returned home, as if he had been injured, and the scars on his face were newly added recently, which made Nie Ran puzzled.

"Brother Nie, listen to me!"

Guan Zhongbao knew that it sounded a bit unreal, so he was not angry. After hearing what happened to him at Baining Temple, Nie Ran couldn't help but fell into deep thought.

"I knew that this matter would not be simple!"

When Nie Ran heard the strength of the big monster, his face became a little gloomy again.

If it was really what Guan Zhongbao described, even with the addition of him, a fellow monk, it might not be a sure win.

"I also know that this matter is difficult, but there is no way, who made this task assigned by the saint?"

At this time, Guan Zhongbao naturally didn't want Nie Ran to retreat, so he moved out Liu Qinghan directly, and he didn't call him the cave master, but the saint.

After all, the cave master is only Liu Qinghan's position in the main peak line, and the saint is the saint of the entire Luoyou Mountain, which is acquiesced by all peaks.

Saying that Liu Qinghan is the No. 1 of Luo Youshan's younger generation, no one will have any objection. How many people can there be in such a young Nascent Soul Realm natal sword master?
"No, Brother Guan, if it's just the two of us, then I will not take this risk anyway, it's too dangerous, it may cost my life!"

It seemed that Nie Ran was more cautious than Guan Zhongbao. Hearing these words from his mouth, the latter's face undoubtedly became very gloomy.

This guy backtracks, does he really think he's such a good joker?

"Nie Ran, do you want to go back on your word?"

Guan Zhongbao's tone was a bit unfriendly, this guy had just promised himself, but he retreated in a blink of an eye. Could it be that guys from Gu Yufeng are so greedy for life and afraid of death?

"Brother Guan, don't worry, just the two of us are too dangerous, but..."

Nie Ran paused for a moment, as if he was thinking about something, and then said after a while: "I seem to have heard that Tang Zhe from Jingzhe Peak is in a neighboring country, maybe you can try to contact him!"

"Tang Zhe? Is he also nearby?"

Hearing this, Guan Zhongbao couldn't help being overjoyed, and secretly thought that if Tang Zhe could really be pulled over to fight together, then this matter would be safe.

"Brother Guan, don't be too happy, Tang Zhe is not as easy to talk to as I am. If you can't come up with any treasures that will tempt him, even if he comes, he may not be able to make a move!"

It seemed that Nie Ran knew Tang Zhe very well, and even knew the other party's identity, knowing that he always put interests first.

Even if he saw his fellow disciples in danger and didn't have enough benefits, he would just watch the battle from the sidelines.

"Don't worry, I have my own way!"

Guan Zhongbao didn't have so many thoughts, he only wanted to kill Lu Xun now, for the sake of the saint cave master, and also for his own humiliation, which would overwhelm everything else.

Hearing what Guan Zhongbao said, Nie Ran couldn't say anything more.

Seeing that he took out a strange object from the mustard bracelet, he spread the news in front of the former, which made Guan Zhongbao feel another kind of expectation.
