He casually lied, but unexpectedly caused everyone to sink into deep thought. However, this silence was not a bad thing for Wu Di, at least he did not need to worry about people asking further, saying more mistakes, if one of them were to say wrong, his life would really be forfeit.
After being quiet for a few seconds, it was still the Protector Qiu in the hall who spoke. "That secret realm has been peaceful for many years, and there are a few unranked Demonic Beast at the edge of the hall. How could there be an existence of at least a rank 3 Flood Dragon? "
"Yeah, this is too unbelievable. Could it be that things have changed? Could it be that ten thousand..." Protector Qing hesitated to speak.
After talking about the key point, he was stopped by the Protector Yellow beside him, "Junior Brother, there's no evidence, so don't spout nonsense.
"Senior apprentice-brother, you are right. I made a slip of the tongue." Protector Qing actually apologized respectfully.
At this time, the Protector Red stood up and said, "Listening to this kid spouting nonsense, I think he might have found some ancient cultivator's cave. "Brat, if you don't want to die, then tell me the truth right now."
After Wu Di finished listening to Protector Red, his heart started to beat erratically. He knew clearly that the other party was spouting nonsense because they were targeting him. However, he didn't expect that his words would hit the nail on the head. The truth was actually so close to the truth.
"Everything disciple said was true. If not for disciple's luck at that time, I would have never been able to defeat this giant snake. This is all thanks to my friend Mu Lee who gave me quite a few fire runes. Otherwise, I would never have had the chance to escape. "
"Alright, this is none of your business. You can leave now." The Protector Qiu said indifferently.
Although Wu Di wasn't sure exactly why they called him over, as long as it wasn't to punish him, Wu Di would naturally not meddle in other people's business.
"Wait a minute, he can't leave yet. There are a lot of problems with this kid, he might be the gap that they sent over here. I feel that we need to investigate this kid properly."
The Protector Red blocked Wu Di's path with a flash. His attitude was obvious after he said those words, and he was unwilling to let Wu Di go.
Protector White coldly snorted and said, "Old Hong, I think you shouldn't be so embarrassed. It's one thing for you to be so arrogant, but now a protector is maliciously making things difficult for an outer sect disciple. If this matter were to spread, the reputation of our Rainbow Protector would be tarnished by you. "
"Humph!" Last time you spoke up for this kid. This kid has a problem, don't tell me you have a problem as well? I think we need to not only investigate this kid, but you too. "
Protector Red was someone who stepped on his nose and was extremely narrow-minded. Although Lee Hong had embarrassed himself with the matter regarding Lee Hong, everyone knew that Lee Hong was someone of the Protector Red. Losing Lee Hong's face was equivalent to slapping the Protector Red's face on the spot.
At this time, Wu Di bent his waist and lowered his head, lowering his posture to the lowest point. In the eyes of others, he was just a pitiful bug, if not for offending the Protector Red, he wouldn't need to face this kind of situation.
Protector Yellow slapped the armrest of his chair and said, "Don't try to avenge a personal grudge, I hate people like you the most. Protector Red, we still have big matters to discuss. Don't tell me you are going to delay big things because of your personal grudge with a junior? "
However, he still glared fiercely at Wu Di, and said, "Brat, just you wait, I won't let you have an easy time."
Wu Di finally made it out of the pavilion alive. When he was inside the pavilion just now, he had thought that he would definitely lose his life.
"What's wrong?" An ice-cold yet unusually pleasant voice rang out from behind Wu Di.
Wu Di subconsciously turned his head around, and the first thing he saw was Meng Bingyao's elegant and refined beautiful face. Wu Di had seen many senior sisters. Some of them were beautiful, but most of them lacked spirit energy. It was not like the Elder Sister Meng, where no emotions could be seen from her eyes, as if she did not belong here at all.
Wu Di watched in a daze, if Meng Bingyao had not taken a few steps closer, he might have continued to stare insolently at the other party.
"Elder Sister Meng." Wu Di cupped his fists, and said respectfully with his head lowered.
Meng Bingyao looked at the direction of the pavilion and said indifferently: "Follow me."
Although Wu Di didn't know why the Elder Sister Meng was looking for him, being able to work for beauties was what all men yearned for the most. Moreover, this Meng Bingyao was the most beautiful woman in the entire Seven Star Mountain.
However, Wu Di had heard it from the beginning, so there was no way to verify whether it was true or false.
Meng Bingyao brought Wu Di directly to the cold pond, then turned and asked: "The protectors called you over, what's the matter?"
"Senior sister, to be honest, I'm not too sure either. They only asked me why my cultivation rose so fast. Wu Di told him the truth.
Only then did Meng Bingyao realize that she had to carefully examine Wu Di's current cultivation, "Body Tempering stage? You actually reached the Body Tempering stage so quickly? "
"Elder Sister Meng, this is a long story, but I did not use any evil techniques." Wu Di immediately explained.
Meng Bingyao nodded his head, and said, "I believe you, but you must have had some fortuitous encounter, otherwise, with your talent, it is truly unimaginable."
Wu Di's heart warmed, this genius disciple who had only known him a few times actually believed what he said. He didn't know why, but Wu Di's heart was beating even faster.
"Nothing, you can go." Meng Bingyao suddenly said.
Wu Di subconsciously wanted to turn around and leave, but he suddenly stopped in his tracks, wanting to say something. Maybe he would not tell others, but if it was Meng Bingyao, could he do it?
"Senior sister …"
"What is it?" Meng Bingyao looked at Wu Di with a gaze as cold as ice. There seemed to be very little emotion in her eyes.
Wu Di's previous enthusiasm disappeared, and he finally swallowed all of the words that he had wanted to say. Only then did he say, "It's nothing, I just wanted to thank you for trusting me."
Meng Bingyao didn't say anything. Closing her right index finger, she gently waved it, and the aqua blue longsword flew out from its sheath. Meng Bingyao stepped on the blade, and in a blink of an eye, she turned into a ray of light and flew away.
Wu Di watched on in envy. This was the strength of the Earth Fiend Stage Realm, it would be good if he could also fly on his sword.
When Wu Di returned to his own courtyard, the crowd had already dispersed, and only Zhao Tiehniu was sitting in front of a stone table in his courtyard, fiddling with some sort of item.
Wu Di sat down opposite of him, "Why is it just you, where's Mu Lee?"
"That kid opened his eyes when he saw the money. How could he bear to return when he didn't earn enough?" At this time, Zhao Tiehniu placed an item in front of Wu Di.
Wu Di looked and saw that it was a paper lantern. He was a little surprised, Zhao Tiehniu had such a rough appearance, he did not expect that he could do such fine work.
"Everyone needs to light the lanterns tonight to pray for your blessings. I can see that each of you is busier than the last, so I've done all of these for you."
"Turn on the light for blessings? "Yeah, I forgot about that." Wu Di muttered to himself.
There was an unwritten rule set in the Seven Star Mountain that every year, on this day, there would be a lamp to pray for blessings, and every disciple had to put a lamp in the sky.
In any case, this could be considered to be a grand occasion for Seven Star Sect, and people who paid attention to such things would draw beautiful patterns on the lantern cover. Some people would even use the lamp's light to make wishes or express their feelings for their sweethearts.
In the beginning, they had done all this in secret, but when they realized that the sect was not going to stop them, they became more casual and treated this Assembly of Blessings as a festival.
The three lanterns that Zhao Tiehniu had made were the simplest ones, there was nothing on top. However, Wu Di still accepted the lantern. He had a few things that he needed to discuss with the Three-legged Small Caldron before returning to his room, and many of the questions he felt that only the small caldron could answer him.
After Wu Di entered the room, he locked the door tightly. At this time, the little Inhibition had already been opened, he was not worried that someone would barge in.
Wu Di sat crossed legged on the bed, and not long later he calmed down, allowing his consciousness to enter his sea of consciousness.
The Three-legged Small Caldron was bigger than before, but Wu Di realized that his Sea of Consciousness was bigger too. This was a very normal situation. The size of one's sea of consciousness meant that one's spiritual sense was not strong enough.
