There is a progress bar in my cultivation of immortality

Chapter 236 Change your mind and return to Qianmu Temple
  After Wang Ping listened to Guan Xi's words, he asked Zihong to bring out the good wine he bought some time ago while thinking carefully about the situation.

This situation where Lord Xiaoshanfu and Taoist Wuma are evenly matched is most likely the result of Guanxi's operation.

It seems that nothing has changed this time, but in fact it has changed a lot, and it has allowed both of them to make a move either proactively or passively before it was time to make a move.

"What is your purpose?" Wang Ping knew this question seemed like nonsense, but he asked it anyway.

"For balance, of course, and to please the saints."

When Guan Xi spoke, he stretched out his hand, and a ball of milky white light appeared in his hand. "You see, compared to the first time I met you, I can now control the power in my body stably. This is pleasing." The power brought by saints is very simple, isn’t it?”

His smile at the moment was pure.

Wang Ping took the wine Zi Hong brought and opened the seal, took out two wine bowls from the storage bag, poured two bowls of wine silently, and said, "Try this wine."

"It's very fragrant, a bit like the aroma of fire fruit. I think it's the famous fire fruit wine in Zhongzhou."

Guan Xi first thanked Wang Ping, then picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp. After the aroma of the wine spread through his mouth to all his senses, he took a long breath and said, "It is indeed a good wine."

"For this glass of wine, let me remind you, go to the capital...you better not go for the time being. If you go, nothing can be changed. If you don't go, it will have better results, because Jiu Niangniang is a capable person."

Wang Ping couldn't help but take a closer look at Guan Xi after hearing this. As soon as he received the news that Zi Luan would be blocked, the idea of ​​​​taking shelter from the limelight came into his mind.

Facing Wang Ping's gaze, Guan Xi clasped his fists and said, "That's it for now. I wish fellow Taoist a great journey ahead. We'll see you soon."

When his words fell to the ground, his physical body turned into a milky white light, blending into the light falling from the sky in a strange and secret way. In the blink of an eye, he could no longer feel his breath.

"What a magical power. It's similar to the power Xingshan had when he told the story of the assassination of the Wang family in the capital." Yu Lian looked up and looked at the direction where Guan Xi disappeared quietly, "Why do I feel that his power is above the third realm!"

Wang Ping said nothing and stared at the direction Guan Xi left, his face becoming very serious.

"Do you think I should listen to him?" he asked.

"Follow what is in your heart."

Wang Ping withdrew his gaze and looked at Yu Lian, who also looked at him, and then he took out the wild rice cup...

Six consecutive hexagrams were all random.

"Tell me, why is it always so difficult for me to do divination as long as I leave Qianmu Mountain?" Wang Ping held the rice cup in his hand and looked at the sun with it like a child.

"Are there ancestors in the temple to protect you?" Yu Lian asked in confusion.

"Ha ha!"

Wang Ping laughed loudly and threw out another hexagram. It was still a random hexagram. He couldn't help but look up at the sky. This incident reminded him of what happened in Yongming Port.

He also kept throwing random hexagrams at the beginning, and that time it was Lord Xiao Shanfu who used the 'Celestial Talisman' to block the secret of heaven.

"I think the trip to the capital should be postponed." Wang Ping stared at the random hexagrams on the ground and said softly. After hearing this, Yu Lian thought for a while and said, "What did the master say?"

"I'll find a way to convince him."

"hope so."

After making the decision, Wang Ping did not get up immediately. He first wrote a handwritten letter to Zi Luan. This kind of favor would not be sold for free.

three days later.

Zi Luan wrote back to express his gratitude to Wang Ping for informing him, and did not say anything about their plans in advance.

In the next two months, Wang Ping's life became relatively monotonous. Linshui Mansion did not have any information from Taoist Ziluan. Wang Ping also deliberately tested Jiang Cun several times who came to see him for a drink.

Of course, it may be that both of them are very good at acting.

End of April. The news that Liu Zixiu was assassinated finally came out.

The world shakes!

The emperor personally issued an edict to investigate the murderer, and named Liu Zixiu the True Monarch of Zhonghui. He was enshrined in the temple of the Xia Dynasty and worshiped by all the people and officials.

Then rumors spread. Some said he was assassinated by northerners, some said political persecution, and some said it was a conspiracy by the royal family. In the spiritual world, most people said it was Mr. Xiaoshanfu who did this.

Wang Ping immediately wrote a letter to Taoist Yucheng, and then asked Xia Yao to exchange opinions on Zhongzhou issues.

half a month later.

He returned to Qianmu Mountain quietly, but ordered Zihong to go to Shangjing secretly.

"You are right. The current situation is too dangerous. With your strength and mine, it would be unwise to rush forward hastily." Taoist Yucheng came to Wang Ping immediately after he returned.

"But, I have to go there, otherwise I won't be able to suppress my thoughts."

Taoist Yucheng was resolute. Seeing that Wang Ping wanted to speak, he stretched out his hand to comfort and said: "I just went over to take a look. As Liu Zixiu's master, I believe no one dares to let anything happen to me at this time."

Wang Ping was still a little worried. He was afraid that Taoist Yucheng would not be able to suppress his inner demons and find Li Yan alone.

"You don't have to worry about me. I'll be back in half a year at the latest. I won't be stupid enough to go find Liyan alone. I don't spend so much energy on the plan just to die."

The last sentence made Wang Ping feel relieved.

A month later.

Emperor Jianwu ordered students across the country to wear mourning robes to show respect for the humane saints.

Liu Zixiu's direct disciple Zhang Xinghuai also returned to the college at the foot of Qianmuguan Mountain and brought back the emperor's imperial edict. From then on, the college was renamed Zhonghui College and the town was renamed Zhonghui City.

after one day.

The hundreds of thousands of government troops who had completed their assembly in Shangjing received orders to go north.

At the same time, Wang Kang's heroic deeds a hundred years ago began to spread throughout the country, and people seemed to have absolute confidence in the war going north.

At this time, Wang Ping ended his retreat and went to Jinhuai Mansion at the invitation of Taoist Ziluan.

"Haha, I thought you went to Shangjing City, but I didn't expect that you have been hiding in your dojo. You can have a leisurely time." Zi Luan still walked to the gate of the courtyard in person to greet Wang Ping.

"After much thought, the situation in Beijing is complicated, so I won't go into troubled waters this time."

"Wise choice!"

Zi Luan agreed, and then talked about what happened last time, "Thanks to you for reminding me last time, otherwise we would have suffered a big loss... I wonder, where did fellow Taoist get the news?"

"I can only tell you that the news came from the Zhenyang Sect." Wang Ping gave a confused answer, and then changed the subject and asked, "Is there still no news about fellow Taoist Danchen?"

"Speaking of this, I also have a headache!"

Zi Luan gave a rare wry smile, "Without fellow Taoist Danchen, we realized how important he is, and our Taoist temple will not be able to function."

"There's really no news?"

"no!"

The two were silent for a few breaths while chatting. After entering the main room and sitting down, Yu Ziluan broke the silence and said: "Last time we besieged Si Ran, we agreed that you would have a share of the spoils. You are lucky. They happened to be on your promotion. It can be used when you are in the third realm.”
