Chapter 75 Let's Go Shopping
Luben Hall, the law enforcement elder Ke Yizong is in the hall of Wukang Mountain.
Led by a disciple from Wukang Mountain, Xiang Lan'er followed in cautiously.
The person stood in front of the hall and led the disciples to report: "Elder, the person has arrived."
Without his reminder, Elder Ke, who was sitting behind the desk, had already stared at Xiang Lan'er. It was understandable that this woman seemed cautious and uneasy, and her beauty also made him understand why Bian Weikang was so infatuated with her.
"Greetings, Elder." Xiang Lan'er bowed.
Elder Ke waved his hand to dismiss the disciple. When there were only two people left in the hall, he asked, "Are you sure you really want to stay with Bian Weikang forever?"
Although Xiang Lan'er looked a little nervous, she still said dignifiedly: "The world can bear witness to my heart."
Elder Ke nodded slightly, "Okay, it's rare to find a couple, I'm willing to help you two, and give you a chance to become a disciple of Wukang Mountain, do you want to?"
Xiang Lan'er looked up in surprise, and was stunned for a long time before she said with certainty: "Yes."
In fact, even if the other party didn't say it, she knew what it was, because the insider had already informed her in advance.
Elder Ke: "There will be a grand event in Shengshenzhou called 'Heavenly Rain and Meteor Conference'. Have you heard of it?"
Xiang Lan'er was a little confused, but she still replied sincerely: "I heard my husband mention it recently."
Elder Ke: "That's good to know. According to the rules, Wukang Mountain must also send five disciples to attend the meeting. This is an opportunity for you. Are you willing to join Wukang Mountain and become a disciple of Wukang Mountain?"
Xiang Lan'er immediately stayed at the scene, gradually showing a bitter look, as if he understood something, and nodded and said: "I am willing to become a disciple of Wukang Mountain."
Elder Ke hummed, "Think it through. The world outside is huge and there are many places for you to go. It doesn't matter if you don't want to join Wukang Mountain. No one will force you."
Xiang Lan'er smiled with difficulty, "I wish to enter Wukang Mountain and participate in the 'Sky Rain Meteor Conference' as a disciple of Wukang Mountain."
Elder Ke: "When the list of participants is announced later, Wei Kang will be surprised to see you on the list. How do you explain it?"
Xiang Lan'er bowed her head sadly and said, "I will say that I signed up for this of my own accord, and no one forced me."
"He's a smart man. Okay, then become my disciple. There's no need for formalities." After Elder Ke finished speaking, he flicked his finger and a gust of wind shot out, hitting the small bronze bell hanging nearby, making a crisp sound.
Immediately, disciples outside came in upon hearing the news.
"She has become my disciple. I will take her to Elder Yin to start the initiation process."
"Yes."
Without even asking for the most basic disciple’s greetings to his master, Elder Ke simply had Xiang Lan’er taken away.
As soon as Xiang Lan'er, who was in a daze, got outside, she saw two familiar people waiting in the corridor. They were none other than Shi Chun and Wu Jinliang.
"Hey, Miss Xiang, why are you here too?" Wu Jinliang asked curiously.
The two of them were confused and didn't know what the meaning of being called here was. When they saw Xiang Lan'er was there, they suddenly had a bad feeling.
Xiang Lan'er nodded slightly and said nothing, but her face didn't look very good anyway.
The disciple who had called Shi Chun and the other two over began to call them, "Let's go."
The two of them hurriedly followed, looking back from time to time to see Xiang Lan'er's leaving figure.
When they arrived at the hall, they saw Mr. Ke Yi sitting high up in the hall. Shi Chun and the others hurriedly bowed to him and said, "Greetings, Elder Ke."
This time, Elder Ke did not ask his disciples to leave. He even skipped the beat and said directly, "I intend to recommend you two to represent Wukang Mountain in Shengshenzhou's 'Heavenly Rain and Meteor Conference'. Are you willing?"
"What?" Wu Jinliang cried out in surprise.
Shi Chun was also a little confused, wondering if he had heard it wrong. Then he thought of Xiang Lan'er's expression just now, and felt something was wrong. He hurriedly said, "Elder Ke, you are joking. Not only are we guilty, but we are also not disciples of Wukang Mountain. There is no reason for us to go to the meeting."
Elder Ke: “It’s simple. You can become my disciple now, and then you will naturally have the reason to go and participate.
In addition, I don't want to beat around the bush with you. After you killed our disciple Wei Bian, Wukangshan wanted to give you a lighter punishment, but you refused to change your ways and even escaped without permission. You then repeatedly beat up my Wukangshan disciples. I have never had the time to formally inquire into your myriad crimes.
Since I called you here today, I want to settle accounts with you. You should also know what this 'Luben Hall' is. Your crime is to kill a disciple of our sect, and you can be executed on the spot!"
Wu Jinliang screamed again: "It was Wei Bian who ordered people to assassinate us first. We were defending ourselves."
Elder Ke: "Who saw Wei Bian order the assassination? Guess how many people saw you assassinate Wei Bian? Here, I, Wu Kangshan, have the final say. Even if you report it to the Heavenly Court, it will be left to the local authorities to investigate. Do you think Shengzhou Domain will listen to you or me? Besides, you don't have the chance to report it to the Heavenly Court.
I will ask you two one last time, should I kill you on the spot, or let you join Wukang Mountain to participate in the "Sky Rain Meteor Conference" to atone for your sins? You can choose, I will not force you! "
Wu Jinliang bared his teeth. Shi Chun's mouth twitched.
The two of them experienced what arrogance meant.
Wu Jinliang suddenly turned around and asked, "In the spring, that 'Sky Rain Meteor Show' must be very lively. I really want to go and see the world. What do you think?"
"That's exactly what I meant." Shi Chun nodded in agreement, then bowed to Elder Ke and said, "I would like to become your disciple."
Wu Jinliang also bowed and said, "I hope Elder Ke will help me."
It’s better not to have the apprenticeship ceremony. Elder Ke waved his hand and said, “Take them to Elder Yin to start the initiation process. Tell the Punishment Court to stop them from doing menial work. Send two people to watch them around the clock until they are sent away. If there are any signs of escape during this period, there is no need to report it, and there is no need to show mercy. They can be killed on the spot!
Forget it, for the sake of safety, there is no need to go back to the Penal Court. Let them live directly in the prison. It is quiet there and all their basic needs can be met as much as possible. "
Hearing these words, Shi Chun and the other two felt a chill in their hearts.
If we really don't touch them, then it's fine. But when we really need to touch them, we won't want to reason with them anymore, and they won't even have the slightest room to resist.
"Yes." The disciple took the order and took the two away on the spot.
The two then met Yin Huixin, who was in charge of matters related to the disciples' admission.
After going through a set of procedures, Shi Chun and the other person became disciples of Wukang Mountain so hastily, and were then locked up in the prison they were familiar with.
What should they do? The two could only hope that the demons would come to rescue them, but when they thought about encountering Xiang Lan'er in Luben Hall, they felt something was not good.
Fortunately, Elder Ke’s promise could still be fulfilled. When Wu Jinliang asked for something from the Punishment Court, someone immediately delivered it to him.
Shi Chun knew that his cultivation had reached the critical period of breakthrough, so he was active. But he felt sorry for himself. If Wu Jinliang's cultivation was higher than his, he would feel that his position as the boss was lacking.
In order not to disturb Wu Jinliang's practice, Shi Chun took the initiative to ask to be locked in the cage next door.
The two asked for weapons and other things left behind in Anle Tower, and disciples from Wukang Mountain went to get them. Their requests for food and drink were also satisfied as much as possible. However, the two were not happy at all, as it felt like they were having their last meal before execution.
Fortunately, the next day, Xiang Lan'er came to visit the prison on the pretext of visiting her benefactor.
Upon learning that all of them had indeed become disciples of Wukang Mountain to attend the meeting, Shi Chun was shocked, "How could this be such a coincidence? Could it be that the three of us have been exposed?"
"I have already got the details. It has nothing to do with being exposed. This time it was that Elder Ke who was causing trouble. He had always disagreed with my entering Wukang Mountain..." Xiang Lan'er recounted the entire process of Elder Ke's obstruction, saying that even Bian Jixiong was very angry about it, but the list had been submitted and it was difficult to change it.
Shi Chun and Wu Jinliang were dumbfounded when they heard this. It turned out that he just disliked them and was just using them as a scapegoat.
"Old thing, don't fall into my hands!" Wu Jinliang shouted angrily, and in the blink of an eye, he became disrespectful to the master he had just worshipped.
Shi Chun: "This 'Sky Rain Meteor Shower' is too dangerous. We can't afford to play it. We can't stay in Wukang Mountain anymore. Hurry up and get your people to get us out."
Xiang Lan'er shook her head. "If we had escaped earlier, we would have only offended Wukang Mountain. Now our names have been reported to Shengzhou Prefecture. If we flee now, we will become prisoners of Heaven. Are you sure you want to be hunted by Heaven for the rest of your life?"
"..." Shi Chun and the other two were speechless.
"My superiors have already known the situation. They told us to go to the meeting without worry. They will arrange people to secretly assist us, so we will not be in any danger this time. Just think of it as going out to relax, see the world, and have fun and then come back."
Xiang Lan'er came here mainly to appease the two of them, fearing that they would go crazy and shout "If we don't rescue them, we will expose you too." She was afraid that the two of them would become unsure and do something really crazy when they got anxious.
It's okay to be afraid, but the key is that these two people will indeed do incredible things. They have only been in Wukang Mountain for a short time, but they have already done such things several times. Anyone would be worried.
When they heard that the people from the Demonic Path would escort them, Shi Chun and the others immediately felt relieved and laughed on the spot.
Wu Jinliang said cheerfully, "It's good to go for a walk in the spring. It's boring to be in jail all the time."
Anyway, the two of them were settled like this, and they no longer worried about anything. Instead, they waited with anticipation, counting the days with their fingers every day.
Shi Chun also had the leisure to read the book "Lantern of Mountains and Seas" carefully.
A few days later, there was a sudden crackling sound from the cage next door. Shi Chun immediately lay on the isolation fence to observe and confirmed that it came from Wu Jinliang. Wu Jinliang's muscles and bones were repeatedly loosening to adapt his meridians.
Suddenly, a strong breath burst out from Wu Jinliang, blowing Shi Chun so hard that he raised the book to cover his face, and he was also blown back several steps.
Immediately afterwards, Wu Jinliang's wild laughter of "Wow, haha" was heard, and he continued to laugh.
Shi Chun put down his hand and looked over, knowing that Wu Jinliang's cultivation had made a breakthrough and he finally entered a high martial arts realm!
He felt a little jealous and anxious. Where could he catch someone practicing the magic?
Meanwhile, on Wukang Mountain, the final list of participants for the 'Rain of Meteor Conference' was officially announced.
