Chapter 162: The Mysterious Expert Using Immortal Techniques
The position of a Domain Commander is equivalent to that of a first-grade military officer in the Great Qian Dynasty, with a rank higher than Li Mingxuan, who holds the position of a second-grade governor.
Li Mingxuan’s expression changed several tis, and he calmly said, “Since there’s an appointnt letter from the Southern Commander, I won’t say much more. However, even with this appointnt letter, if Young Master Qin from the Qin family is unwilling to join the Demon Slayer Departnt, I will still try to recruit him.”
“When the ti cos, it will depend entirely on Lord Li’s wishes,” Mr. Zhou said, stroking his beard, looking pleased.
Even with Lin Mingxuan’s high education, seeing this expression, his fist under his sleeve robe tightened slightly.
This old guy. Li Mingxuan exhaled and then said, “So, let’s discuss the reconstruction of Jinyang City next. Elder, what are your thoughts?”
As the words fell, there was no response, and everyone looked around.
The white-haired elder nad Elder Yuan, supporting his chin with one hand, had his eyes closed, and a gentle snoring sound could be heard.
He actually fell asleep!
Seeing this, Gong Liang hurriedly took a step forward and patted the elder’s back.
“Uh? Is it all finished?” The elder was awakened by the pat, stretched lazily, and asked.
He opened his eyes and saw everyone looking at him, so he curiously asked, “Is there sothing?”
Li Mingxuan was not annoyed; he respectfully said, “Regarding the reconstruction of Jinyang City, Elder, do you have any suggestions?”
The elder lit his pipe, took a few puffs, and exhaled a stream of smoke, saying, “How to rebuild it is up to your discussion. As long as the rewards are sufficient, we can build it however you want.”
Simple words, but they revealed the elder’s strong confidence.
And he did have the capital for such confidence because the supre weapon widely circulated in the Great Qian Dyansty, worshipped as one of the Twelve Supre Weapons, was crafted by him!
The elder, full na Yuan Zhai, was the current head of the Divine Workshop!
“Since Elder has said so, after discussing it with Mr. Zhou, I will inform you of our ideas.” After thinking for a mont, Li Mingxuan said so.
“Good, then I’ll take these little guys and carefully inspect Jinyang City to prepare for building a protective barrier later. After you confirm, co find .” The elder left these words and led the others out of the hall.
Qin Feng, with Lan Ningxue, arrived outside the Listen To Rain Pavilion but did not rush in.
He stared intently at the old man lying on the wicker chair, as if trying to discern sothing.
At the ti of the invasion, the black barrier and four huge black Buddhas clearly appeared in this position.
But this old man seed completely unaffected?
He had considered that perhaps the old man really had no cultivation and was moved to another space by the mysterious expert’s immortal technique.
However, when he used his X- ability to observe the old man’s body, he was surprised.
The previously all-powerful X-Ray vision could not see through the old man; he could only see a phantom white silhouette of a human figure!
“There’s definitely sothing wrong about this old man! Even when facing Senior Yu with thirty-six stars and the Twelve Divine General Lord Mad Blade, my
X-Ray vision ability never encountered such a situation.
Could it be…”
A bold speculation erged in Qin Feng’s mind: this old man might be a more formidable figure than the Twelve Divine Generals.
Furthermore, the mysterious expert who used the immortal technique at the beginning was none other than this old man in front of him!
Once this idea took root, it intensified, to the point that in the past few days, whenever he ca to Listen To Rain Pavilion, he would observe the old man for a long ti.
“Stinky brat, I’ve been wanting to say this for a long ti. Why have you been staring at
all this ti instead of looking at the charming beauty beside you? Isn’t it Disgusting?” The old man Bai Li expressed his disdain.
Upon hearing this, Lan Ningshuang blushed, took a step back sowhat embarrassed, but her gaze drifted towards the figure in black.
Qin Feng remained respectful.
In the past, if the old man scolded him like this, he would have definitely stomped into the Listen To Rain Pavilion, not bothering to argue.
But tis had changed.
“If the old man is really a mysterious expert practicing immortal techniques, I’ll take him as my master and learn a move or two. Wouldn’t that be like a dragon soaring into the sky?” Qin Feng thought.
The mystical scene he witnessed in the mist when Bai Li used immortal techniques was still vivid in his mory.
Moreover, the beautiful lady had ntioned that practicing immortal techniques didn’t rely on things like strength or Yin Qi.
In other words, he might have a chance to learn immortal techniques!
Glancing at the empty wine cup by the wicker chair, Qin Feng imdiately took out a jar of Drunken Immortal from his Storage Ring and poured it generously for the old man.
“This is the best wine in our tavern, sold only one jar per month. Senior, you have always taken good care of
, so I brought it specially for you to taste.”
This unusual gesture puzzled Lan Ningshuang who stood nearby.
Her Young Master seed not to like this old man, so why was he behaving so differently today?
Bai Li squinted his eyes and coldly chuckled. He took the wine cup, raised it to drink, and said, “Good wine, but the person falls short. Without reason, offering goodwill; it’s either treacherous or thieving. Speak up, stinky brat, what do you want?”
Qin Feng asked imdiately, “Senior, ten days ago, there was chaos in Jinyang City. The entire city was shrouded in white fog. I wonder, where were you at that ti?”
“Why beat around the bush? Are you trying to ask if I caused that white fog?” The old man raised an eyebrow.
Damn, he’s so direct. Could this old guy really be that mysterious expert?
Swallowing hard, Qin Feng replied, “Junior really wants to know.”
“What if I say I did?” The old man’s smile was ambiguous.
At this statent, both Qin Feng and Lan Ningshuang widened their eyes in astonishnt.
That white mist is not an ordinary technique but rather an immortal technique!
Although this old fellow has a foul mouth and is quite irritating, in the face of immortal technique, these are tolerable flaws!
Qin Feng imdiately flattered, “I knew the elder is no ordinary person. As the saying goes, a real man doesn’t reveal his true abilities, and the sea cannot be asured.
What Senior displayed in the past was just superficial!
Speaking of which, elder, I see that you are always alone here, guarding the Listen To Rain Pavilion. Haven’t you thought about taking on an apprentice to share the responsibilities?”
”My body is old and I have always been guarding this place, enduring the wind and sun. Indeed, I have thought about it, but I have never found a suitable candidate.” The old man patted his shoulder, spoke slowly, and glanced at Qin Feng intentionally or unintentionally.
Qin Feng imdiately understood, stepped forward, and started massaging the old man’s shoulder. ”Taking an apprentice is indeed not sothing to be taken lightly. Aptitude and character are indispensable. Of course, besides these two points, there is one more crucial aspect, and that is mutual understanding!
So, elder, what do you think of ?”
”You want to be my disciple?” The old man feigned surprise.
”I have always admired you greatly.” Qin Feng smiled.
”But I seem to have nothing to teach you.”
”How could that be? As the saying goes, having an old person at ho is like having a treasure. Elder, your rich experience and broad knowledge are valuable treasures for !” Qin Feng spoke sincerely.
