Mortal Bones

Sword Demon, who was already standing next to Xu Taiping, sighed and said apologetically:

"This time I really took a look and I'm sorry."

The sword ghost continued thoughtfully:

"I didn't expect that this kid, besides being uneducated and lazy, seemed to have offended a qi gazing magician and had his luck cut off."

"Then it seems that he came to Xuandan Palace mostly to take refuge."

Xu Taiping caressed his forehead and said:

"Is it too late to change now?"

The sword ghost said embarrassedly:

"It's not a question of whether it's too late, it's... there's no way to change it."

Daogui added:

"Unless you leave now, wait half a month and come back again."

Xu Taiping shook his head and said:

"That's all it can do."

The sword ghost comforted:

"It doesn't matter. After you go upstairs, you go straight to the Sword Testing Pavilion or the Boxing Pavilion and ignore other things."

Xu Taiping nodded and said:

"From the current point of view, Bei Guoxiao should be just a little unlucky. He should have no mortal enemies in the Xuandan Palace."

The sword ghost immediately promised:

"Don't worry about this. If he really had a mortal enemy, he would have been taken back by the Beiguo family long ago."

While the two were talking, a handsome and slender male disciple of Xuandan Palace suddenly walked past Xu Taiping quickly, walked quickly towards Li Xueqing, and shouted:

"Junior Sister Xueqing, I've kept you waiting for so long!"

While saying this, the young man turned back and glanced at Xu Taiping inadvertently.

Xu Taiping frowned, vaguely feeling that this young man must have some issues with Bei Guoxiao.

At this time, when Li Xueqing heard the cry, she immediately turned her head in surprise, looked at the male disciple with eyes like autumn water, shook her head and said:

"Senior Brother Fu Liu, I will arrive soon."

Seeing this look, Xu Taiping and Dao Gui glanced at each other inadvertently, with clear expressions in their eyes.

The sword ghost looked like he was watching a show and said:

"Oh, it turns out they are love rivals."

As he spoke, he looked up and down Xu Taiping's body from Bei Guoxiao, then grinned and said:

"I can understand why Li Xueqing broke off the engagement."

Xu Taiping expressed some sympathy:

"It seems that just having a good family background may not make girls happy. You have to be tough to be strong."

The sword ghost chuckled and said:

"You, boy, use the word "smith" very cleverly."

Xu Taiping frowned in confusion. He knew that Dao Gui meant something, but he didn't know what it meant.

At this time, the Xuandan Palace disciple named Fu suddenly took out a brocade box from his sleeve, handed it to Li Xueqing's hand with a smile and said:

"Junior Sister Xueqing, congratulations in advance on your successful sword test and climbing to the fifth floor of Wukui Tower."

With that said, he opened the brocade box, revealing a pair of white silk gloves that sparkled with the brilliance of the immortal soldiers.

After seeing the gloves, Li Xueqing's eyes lit up and she said with a look of surprise:

"Senior Brother Fu Liu, could these be Fu Jiatian's cloud-gold gloves made of silk that even immortal soldiers can't scratch?"

As she said that, she pushed the glove back, shook her head and said:

"I can't accept such an expensive gift."

Fu Liu smiled gently and put the glove into Li Xueqing's hand, and then said in a very firm tone: "I said, this is a thank you gift for your successful knife test, junior sister!"

Hearing this, Li Xueqing, whose eyes were like autumn water, nodded with an extremely weak "Yes" and then put the gloves away.

When the sword ghost saw this, he put his hands on the back of his head and said with a smile:

"This Fu Liu is not only a talented person, but also very generous. Being able to take out these gloves shows that he has a good family background. If it were me, I wouldn't choose Mr. Bei Guo."

Xu Taiping lowered his head and glanced at "his" big belly, which was as big as a ball, and then looked at Fu Liu with the jade tree in front of him, and then nodded seriously and said:

"really."

However, when he said this, he didn't know if it was Xu Taiping's illusion, but he always felt Bei Guoxiao's body twitching slightly.

"Hey, Master Beiguo!"

Just when Xu Taiping wanted to investigate in detail, a hand suddenly slapped him heavily on the shoulder, and then a young man poked his head out from behind him and said:

"It's me, Jiang Ping. I greeted you when I first came here!"

At this time, a girl in yellow also came to Xu Taiping's side, but instead of saying hello to Xu Taiping, she pushed Jiang Ping's hand away from Xu Taiping's body, then narrowed her eyes and smiled:

"Young Master Beiguo, how can I be in the mood to talk to you now?"

After saying this, I saw the girl walking quickly towards Fu Liu and saying hello in a very cheerful tone:

"Elder brother, Senior Sister Xueqing!"

Seeing this, Xu Taiping murmured in his heart:

"It turns out that these two are Fu Liu's junior brothers and sisters. No wonder they are so hostile to Bei Guoxiao."

At this time, the young man Jiang Ping suddenly patted Xu Taiping on the shoulder, and then said with a smile:

"Master Beiguo, a man must be able to take things and let them go. Since you agreed to Senior Sister Xueqing's breakup of the engagement, don't bother with her anymore in the future."

Xu Taiping rolled his eyes at Jiang Ping, then snorted coldly in Beiguo's laughing tone, and cursed: "Get out!"

After being scolded, Jiang Ping's face changed instantly, and then he snorted coldly:

"Bei Guo Xiao, please keep your mouth clean. This is Xuandan Palace, not your Bei Guo family!"

According to Bei Guoxiao's personality, he would definitely not show weakness at this time, so Xu Taiping could only continue to glare at Jiang Ping, preparing to curse again.

"I'm going to scold you..."

"Beiguo laughs!"

Before Xu Taiping could finish his words, a female disciple from Xuandan Palace stepped forward and pulled Xu Taiping away.

Although this woman has an ordinary appearance, her skin and eyebrows, from head to toe, give people an indescribable sense of purity.

Just like the dress she was still wearing that had been washed a bit and turned white.

Just when Xu Taiping was curious about who this woman was, Dao Gui's voice suddenly sounded in Xu Taiping's mind:

"This is Yan Yu, Bei Guoxiao's senior sister. The two of them studied under Xiyu Hall together. They are among the few people in Xuandan Palace who treat Bei Guoxiao sincerely."

After hearing what the sword ghost said, Xu Taiping immediately pretended to be very unconvinced and said:

"Senior sister, this guy provoked me first."

Before Yanyu could speak, Fu Liu suddenly shouted to Jiang Ping in a very stern tone:

"Jiang Ping, if you dare to cause trouble for me today, never expect me to intercede for you in front of Master in the future!"

After hearing this, Jiang Ping immediately walked quickly towards Fu Liu and said with a smile:

"Elder brother, I was just joking with Young Master Beiguo!"

When Xu Taiping saw this, he immediately listened to the scolding of Senior Sister Bei Guoxiao Yan Yu and said to the sword ghost in his heart:

"Senior Daogui, now another Yan Yu is involved. Our training this time may end prematurely."

The sword ghost also said at this time:

"I thought I could come and leave quietly, but I didn't expect that so many disciples of the Xuandan Palace were involved. That's all. This time it's all my fault that I misjudged it. I can only wait until fifteen days before coming back."

Xu Taiping nodded calmly.

It would be fine if Bei Guoxiao was just cut off by the Qi Warlock, and they could still come out quietly after entering the Wukui Tower to practice.

But under the current situation, Bei Guoxiao's every move will definitely be watched by many people.

By then, even if they are not afraid of being discovered, it will be difficult for them to practice with peace of mind under unexplainable circumstances.

At this moment, Yan Yu from Xiyutang also suggested to Bei Guoxiao:

"Junior brother, I know you are unwilling to do so, but since you have broken off your engagement with Li Xueqing, you should not continue to be entangled with me, and go back with me to practice in peace!"

So Xu Taiping was ready to agree and then send Bei Guoxiao back together.

But just when he was about to agree to the banquet, Bei Guoxiao's own voice suddenly sounded in Xu Taiping's mind -

"Shangxian, don't promise him, I won't go back, I won't go back!"

Xu Taiping was shocked and thought to himself:

"Isn't this Bei Guoxiao's soul sealed by Senior Daogui? How come he still has spiritual consciousness?!"
