I just want to torture you to death, don't force me to beat you to death

Chapter 572 Letter
Three years.

Chu Ning stayed quietly in the Holy Palace for three years.

During these three years, when he moved around the Holy Palace, many disciples would take the initiative to greet him when they saw him.

No disciple would be a fool to make an enemy of someone who can defeat Feng Xing and has obtained the opportunity to become a saint.

Even the disciples of Sixth Elder Fang Zhengquan would at most just watch Chu Ning leave silently and would not make any mocking or provocative remarks.

Their own master had been punished to go into seclusion, and if they provoke Ji Yang again, if Ji Yang attacks them, the entire sect will not be able to support them.

When other disciples greeted him proactively, Chu Ning did not put on airs. He was not the kind of person who was aloof. Just like when he was in Danshan Sect, he quickly became friends with the disciples of the Holy Palace.

Today he is attending the full moon banquet of the fourth generation great-grandson of this senior brother, and tomorrow he will attend the wedding banquet of another senior brother's son. He is not at all arrogant, and his popularity among the disciples of the Holy Palace is getting better and better.

"This Ji Yang is simply ruining the reputation of our chief disciple. As the chief disciple, he hangs out with ordinary disciples all day and even attends the banquets of their descendants. In the history of the Holy Palace, which chief disciple would do this?"

It was still a courtyard in the Holy Palace, and the four chief disciples were sitting in the courtyard.

Yue Wenqi looked dissatisfied, but Ji Jiebai, who was sitting next to him, smiled and said, "Why don't you challenge Ji Yang?"

Yue Wenqi was silent for a few breaths: "He defeated Feng Xing and is already qualified to be the chief. It is meaningless for me to challenge him again, and people will think that I am deliberately targeting him."

In fact, Yue Wenqi did have this idea, but before he could put it into action, his master summoned him and told him in a serious tone not to provoke Ji Yang unless necessary.

He asked Master why?
Even if Ji Yang defeated Feng Xing, what would it matter? Feng Xing was the weakest among their six chief disciples, otherwise they would not have let Feng Xing guard the gate.

The master only replied with one sentence: Ji Yang cannot be treated with the eyes of a cultivator from an ordinary small world.

Even though he was still a little unconvinced in his heart, he knew that there must be a reason why his master said that. Although he couldn't stand Ji Yang's actions in recent years, he had never revealed it to others.

"I'm thinking that the reason why Ji Yang behaved this way is probably because he came from a small world. When a cultivator from a small world comes to the Heaven Realm, it's inevitable that they feel uncertain and always want to be recognized by the cultivators of the Heaven Realm. They don't have much spirit."

Ao Zhigu smiled and said, Yue Wenqi beside him immediately said: "Yes, that's it."

Ji Jiebing looked at the expressions of his three companions and sighed in his heart, fearing that Ji Yang was not what they thought.

Just like Ji Yang and the cultivators from the small world, who don't want to make enemies and only want to make friends and be kind, they would not have defeated Cheng Jiyao with thunder, and would not have taken the initiative to challenge Feng Xing.

Moreover, when Ji Yang left the listening platform and went to the main hall, his master also went there. After coming back, his master praised Ji Yang highly.

You know, even to the three people present, my master only said "it's okay", but his evaluation of Ji Yang was: This boy is very good.

She has decided to participate less frequently in such exchanges with Yue Wenqi and the other two in the future. After becoming the chief disciples, these three have gradually gone astray and become arrogant.

……

……

After returning from the banquet, Chu Ning met Lin Nan.

"Junior Brother Ji, where are you going to have dinner again?"

"Yes, Senior Brother Zhang has invited me to the banquet as the only male offspring of the sixth generation is born. I can't refuse such kindness." Chu Ning said with a smile.

"You are the only one in our sect who is keen on feasting."

Lin Nan was somewhat helpless. Having reached the Spirit Transformation Realm, he had long lost his appetite, except for the fine wine and delicacies brewed from extremely precious spiritual herbs. However, his Junior Brother Ji was an exception.

He really wanted to ask, is it possible that the small Chinese world had no delicious food and was a world of asceticism?

"Brother Lin, have you received any news about the letter I asked you to pass on for me last time?"

"There is no news at the moment. Junior Brother Ji, don't worry. We are far away from Zhongzhou. It takes several years for a Divine Transformation cultivator to arrive here, not to mention a jade slip letter. I'm afraid it has just arrived in Zhongzhou."

Lin Nan comforted Chu Ning, but in his heart he had already determined that the letter Junior Brother Ji wrote to Tang Si Ning from the academy would probably fall on deaf ears.

It would take several years to travel from the Holy Palace to Zhongzhou even for a powerful god-transforming warrior, but there were post stations in the Cangtian Realm specifically for sending letters. These stations all had teleportation arrays, but they were expensive and most people could not afford them.

If it were him, he would never use the post station to send a message, but he saw that Junior Brother Ji really wanted to contact Tang Sining, so he gritted his teeth and asked the post station to help deliver the letter.

According to the speed of the post station, the jade slip can be delivered to Zhongzhou in a year at most. Although outsiders are not allowed to enter the Zhongzhou Academy, there is a gatehouse specifically for receiving letters. The post station will deliver the letters here, and then the gatehouse of the academy will notify the disciples of the academy to pick up the letters.

Now three years have passed, and there is still no reply. Either Junior Brother Ji and I made a wrong assumption, and it was not this person who saved Junior Brother Ji. Or Tang Sining did not take this matter to heart and did not care about his Junior Brother at all. He just thought it was a small favor and did not want to have too much connection with his Junior Brother.

"That's fine. Then Junior Brother will wait for a while longer."

Chu Ning nodded. He heard the comfort in Lin Nan's words, but he didn't need this comfort. There was only one possibility for not receiving a reply yet. One was that Tang Xiaoniu hadn't seen it yet, and the jade slip had not reached Tang Xiaoniu's hands for some reason.

……

Zhongzhou.

Taiyi Academy.

The academy is located in the east of Zhongzhou Kyoto. It covers an area of ​​only a thousand acres. Compared with the magnificent imperial city, the academy is not even as good as the mansions of some big families in Zhongzhou.

But even so, no one in the entire Kyoto dared to underestimate the academy.

A courtyard in the academy.

A woman in red sat in the pavilion in the yard, looking at the lotus flowers in the pond with a thoughtful look on her face.

"Junior Sister Tang, there are a few letters from you at the concierge. Would you like to pick them up?"

"They are all boring people. Senior Sister, just ask the concierge to deal with them for me."

Tang Ruowei frowned slightly. Outsiders dared not enter the academy. Even after she made it clear that she already had a Taoist partner in the small world, the male cultivators in Zhongzhou still did not give up. Every year, many male cultivators wrote to her. At first, he thought that they were a few seniors writing to him, but later he found out that it was the male cultivators in Zhongzhou, and it happened several times in a row, so he simply stopped reading the letters sent by the doorman.

"Well, six of them were sent from Zhongzhou. The Third Prince wrote you a letter as usual. To be honest, he is really infatuated with you. How about you meet him, Junior Sister Tang?" said the woman in the light yellow skirt with a smile.

"Gone. I've already told you about Wuxin's Taoist partner. This guy is so unreasonable. Let alone that I have a Taoist partner, I wouldn't consider him even if I didn't."

"Senior Sister, I know. In addition to Zhongzhou, there is another letter from the Southern Saint Palace. It seems that your fame has spread to the south. It is said that the person who wrote the letter is the latest genius disciple recruited by the Saint Palace. He became the chief disciple as soon as he entered the palace."

“No matter how talented I am, it has nothing to do with me.”

Tang Ruowei's expression did not change at all, and the woman in the light yellow skirt said nothing more, turned around and walked out of the yard.

Indeed, for the direct disciples of the academy like Junior Sister Tang, not to mention the geniuses of the Holy Palace, even the princes and princesses of Zhongzhou would not be taken seriously.

On the contrary, although they are also disciples of the academy, they are more responsible for handling some miscellaneous matters for the direct disciples such as Junior Sister Tang. For her, let alone the Third Prince of Zhongzhou, she would not refuse even the genius disciple of the Holy Palace far in the south.

……

……

three days later.

Chu Ning received a reply letter.

It was not sent from Zhongzhou, but from the Hualing Palace.

After reading the contents of the jade slip, Chu Ning pondered for a moment and finally decided to go for it.

……

……

The market town outside the mountain range where the Holy Palace Hualing Hall is located.

Lan Yingying stayed in the yard alone, silent.

There were several monks around her, and the atmosphere was very solemn.

"Ahem, Fellow Daoist Lan, there's nothing wrong with marrying Senior Zhang. After all, Senior Zhang is a Spiritualization cultivator. If you marry Senior Zhang, at least you can use the Spiritual Fluid in the Spiritualization Hall for free. Fellow Daoist Lan has been here for three hundred years, but the impurities in your body haven't been eliminated by half yet."

An old man tried to persuade her, but Lan Yingying sneered. What do you mean by marrying Zhang Qingchen? That would mean becoming Zhang Qingchen's plaything. To put it nicely, it's marrying, but to put it bluntly, it's selling herself to Zhang Qingchen. Life and death depends on his whim.

"Fellow Daoist Lan, I'm going to say something disrespectful. Senior Zhang is old after all. If you marry him, you can please him. In the future, not all the relics left by Senior Zhang will belong to you. With these relics, maybe you can enter the Spiritual Transformation Realm. At that time, we will still have to call you Senior Lan."

"Fellow Daoist Lan, at this point we can only think positively. I know you are arrogant. We cultivators who come from small worlds are all arrogant in small worlds, but this is the Heaven Realm."

Lan Yingying listened to the persuasion of her alliance companions and a bitter smile appeared on her face. She knew that some of these people were really doing it for her own good, while others were just trying to please Zhang Qingchen.

Back then, Senior Ji attracted Zhang Qingchen. Although Zhang Qingchen suffered a loss, he was also targeted by Zhang Qingchen.

In the past few years, Zhang Qingchen had been forcing her to be his concubine through hints and pressure. She pretended to be confused and didn't understand, but she didn't expect that Zhang Qingchen would not even care about the face of a powerful god and actually issued an ultimatum.

Facing Zhang Qingchen, she couldn't resist at all. Even if she wanted to escape now, she couldn't do it because there were probably Zhang Qingchen's spies around.

"It's time for you, Fellow Daoist Lan, to recognize the situation and stop harboring illusions."

Fantasy?
Lan Yingying did have fantasies. When Zhang Qingchen gave her an ultimatum, she spent all her spirit coins and had someone send a letter to the Holy Palace to be delivered to that Senior Ji.

She only knew that Senior Ji had become a disciple of the Holy Palace, but it had been so long and Senior Ji had not replied to her letter. She thought that Senior Ji would not help her.

Also.

He didn't have much friendship with the other person, and it was just a message of communication. It meant nothing to Senior Ji. Even without this message of communication, Senior Ji would not be in any trouble.

Although Zhang Qingchen's realm is not high, it is said that he has many powerful senior brothers in the Holy Palace. How could Senior Ji make enemies for himself?

It's time to face reality.

Just as Lan Yingying was about to accept this reality, footsteps were heard outside the courtyard gate.
