According to the agreement between Pei Xuanjing and Yu Zhenzi, if he managed to kill the Lord of Shenxiao Gate, then Yu Zhenzi would help Pei Xuanjing collect the remaining people who were originally under the Lord of Shenxiao Gate’s control.
Now that the Lord of Shenxiao Gate was dead, and with Pei Xuanjing’s support, Yu Zhenzi naturally wanted to quickly use the success of Pei Xuanjing to accept those forces.
Although Yu Zhenzi may seem weak in front of world -defeating powerhouses like Pei Xuanjing and the Lord of Shenxiao Gate, he is still a first-grade Martial Artist.
Now with the help of four other first-grade Martial Artists, five first-grade Martial Artists are already a crucial power in the martial arts world, so he confidently led the other four to leave.
Once Yu Zhenzi left with the other four, Taoist Priest Qingxu and Bai Xiaosheng stepped forward.
“I never thought that in such a short period, Taoist friend’s strength could improve by leaps and bounds, it is truly amazing.” Taoist Priest Qingxu said to Pei Xuanjing with a smile.
Pei Xuanjing repeatedly waved his hand, saying: “It was just luck. If it wasn’t for the two of you stepping in today, I would probably have been in great danger.”
Truth be told, the fact that the Lord of Shenxiao Gate was actually two people was completely beyond Pei Xuanjing’s expectations.
Even in many lifetimes of simulations, it has never been said that the Lord of Shenxiao Gate was actually a pair of twin brothers.
If it were not for warning Bai Xiaosheng and Taoist Priest Qingxu in advance, I would probably have capsized in the gutter.
Even though it seemed extremely powerful when I killed the brothers Wei Qianli and Wei Wanli with the final sword, in reality, I was only putting on a strong face while being weak and had expended a lot.
At that time, I was in a very weak state. Without Bai Xiaosheng’s and Taoist Priest Qingxu’s protection, despite killing the brothers Wei Qianli and Wei Wanli, I might have fallen here.
“You are being too modest.” Bai Xiaosheng laughed and then solemnly bowed to Pei Xuanjing, saying, “This time you have killed Wei Qianli, and I owe you a favor.”
Bai Xiaosheng, who is always unmatched in strategizing, never thought that he would miscalculate. Therefore, the appearance of Wei Qianli surprised him.
Regardless of the reason, Pei Xuanjing’s killing of Wei Qianli undoubtedly solved a major problem for him.
Pei Xuanjing quickly stopped him, saying, “We are allies after all, and he is our common enemy. It is only natural that whoever takes action should do so. Why should we talk about owing favors?”
Bai Xiaosheng’s presence here today proves that their alliance is relatively solid, especially since Wei Qianli was his adversary and enemy.
Hearing Pei Xuanjing’s words, Bai Xiaosheng also smiled indifferently and ceased to say more, but he kept this matter in mind.
He turned his head towards Taoist Priest Qingxu and said, “You said you had something to tell us when you came. Now tell us, so he can go back to heal his injuries sooner.”
Taoist Priest Qingxu nodded and started talking about the matter at hand: “Just about the array that was obtained from the Forbidden Place in the Blessed Land…”
Bai Xiaosheng’s eyes lit up, he interjected: “Has it been completely cracked?”
He had always been concerned about this matter but had neglected it due to his recent busy schedule with the three major lists.
Now hearing Taoist Priest Qingxu mention it, he eagerly listened.
“Do you think that’s something simple?” Taoist Priest Qingxu gave him a mocking look, then turned to Pei Xuanjing with a smile, “I wanted to borrow something from young friend.”
Pei Xuanjing was dubious, asking, “What?”
He didn’t know what Taoist Priest Qingxu wanted.
“The basic array method you brought out from the Forbidden Place of the Blessed Land.” Taoist Priest
Qingxu explained to Pei Xuanjing, “After studying it with several elders at my school, we found a problem. That is, the base of the array method of Shenxiao Sect is different from most of the array methods that are currently circulating. If we emulate using the existing array method arrangement, it has no effect. So I want to borrow that scroll of basic array method to study the basic array method of Shenxiao Sect.”
In fact, Taoist Priest Qingxu was a bit embarrassed. Although Taihe Mountain True Martial Sect was not known for array method, being a Taoist Holy Land, they definitely couldn’t be ignorant of array method.
But after more than half a year of research, they finally had to admit with regret that the array method of Shenxiao Sect was completely different from the existing array methods, featuring a unique style.
Left with no other options, Taoist Priest Qingxu could only ask Pei Xuanjing for help.
“I see!” Pei Xuanjing understood. He nodded and said, “Taoist Priest can come with me back to Shenxiao Mountain to retrieve it, or I can have someone deliver it.”
The scroll of basic array method was something Pei Xuanjing casually took out to supplement his own knowledge.
In the beginning, he actually didn’t look to acquire knowledge about array methods, his mind was fixed on cultivating martial arts.
However, upon reflection, given his advanced stage, he felt that he should explore these things even if he didn’t like studying them, as it would be inevitable to encounter them in the future.
Therefore, he took the scroll of basic array method back and kept it in Shenxiao.
“In this case, I will follow Taoist friend to Shenxiao Mountain.” A smile appeared on Taoist Priest Qingxu’s face.
This matter was very important to him, so he decided to personally make a trip.
Pei Xuanjing nodded.
As winter passed and spring came, more than three months had unknowingly passed since Pei Xuanjing killed the lord of the Shenxiao Gate.
The day the three of them parted, Bai Xiaosheng had other important matters to attend to, while Taoist Priest Qingxu went back with Pei Xuanjing to Shenxiao Mountain. After getting the basic array method, he quickly left, leaving only Pei Xuanjing and Pang Hong on Shenxiao Mountain.
While Pei Xuanjing was both healing his injuries and pondering over his battle with the Lord of Shenxiao Gate, he was also refining Taoyun and guiding Pang Hong’s cultivation.
When the new year approached, under Pei Xuanjing’s guidance, Pang Hong broke through to the realm of Sixth Grade Martial Artist.
At that time, Pei Xuanjing had just turned thirty, having been in this world for exactly thirty years.
At this moment, Pang Hong was just about twenty years old, at an age full of vigor and vitality.
After the apprenticed -brothers spent New Year’s Day on Shenxiao Mountain and got through January 15th:
Without any hesitation, Pei Xuanjing sent Pang Hong down the mountain to gain experience in the martial world.
Pang Hong understood his master’s good intentions, and although he was reluctant to leave, he packed his bags determinedly and started his own martial arts journey.
Of course, what Pang Hong didn’t know was that shortly after he left, Pei Xuanjing sent a message to Bai Xiaosheng, asking him to keep a secret watch over Pang Hong, so as to prevent others from bullying him.
After sending Pang Hong off, Pei Xuanjing was originally planning to accumulate enough Taoyun for a life simulation before searching for another Page of the Netherworld’s Book.
However, unexpectedly, before he could gather enough Taoyun, the Netherworld’s Book Page started to react, pointing him in a certain direction..
