Lie Ping Hei Lian was promoted by being a salted fish

Chapter 430 Expectation and Awareness

It is unbelievable that two people who are hundreds of years old, nearly a thousand years old in total, are making such a fuss, and they are on Zhengyi Peak.

Seeing that the two men were on the verge of a fight, Song Ya took a step forward and stood between Ji Chengfeng and Rong Xiang.

He faced Rong Xiang, his face was as dark as ink, and he did not give Rong Xiang the respect he deserved.

If it were an ordinary day, Songya would have given all the respect he deserved.

After all, whoever is here is a master-level figure when he goes out, and he has disciples and followers everywhere.

It was at that time that Rong Xiang's disciple Sheng Lingbo embarrassed himself in front of Abbot Lianchi, but he didn't say anything special to Rong Xiang.

But this time, he was really angry.

"Rong Xiang, you are so bold that you actually attacked a fellow disciple for no reason, and in this Zhengyi Palace. Do you think you and I are not worthy of respect?"

Rong Xiang is a man of high talent. Although he was born in a humble family, he is strong and has a high status in the sect.

In fact, he is not the highest in seniority. He is a fellow disciple with Sect Leader Songya, Ji Chengfeng and others.

Song Ya usually either called Rong Xiang "Senior Brother" or "Xing Jun". He rarely called him by his name, and with obvious anger and dissatisfaction in his expression.

Normally, no one would mention what Rong Xiang is like in private, but the stereotype he left on everyone was that he was a god, had an immortal demeanor, and was gentle and simple.

But now, her appearance seemed like a mask had been torn off, and the inside was completely different from the outside, which made people look sideways.

With Rong Xiang's level of cultivation, he naturally knew that all his impulsiveness and irritability were caused by the black lotus.

This makes it even more difficult to swallow this.

He originally thought that he had suppressed the discomfort in his heart, but even if there was still some, he vented some of it by attacking Ji Chengfeng.

The head of the sect came with an army to call for an explanation, and it was obvious that he was on Ji Chengfeng's side. The anger in his heart suddenly surged up like fuel, and he couldn't suppress it anymore.

"What's wrong with me! Master, I just said that Sheng Hongyi's astronomical phenomenon had a bad influence on me. Isn't it right for me to seek justice from her master again?"

"You came here without asking for the cause and effect, and instead blamed me. Are you taking advantage of me because I'm usually so easy to talk to?"

"How can the leader convince the people if he is so biased?!"

He said these words in a somewhat sharp voice, and not only was Song Ya stunned, he even felt unfamiliar. He had never seen such a ferocious face before.

There was complete silence all around. It was already surprising that Rong Xiang had confronted Ji Chengfeng, but now he was confronting the sect leader?

This young man with a face like a fool... is it really him? Has he been possessed by another spirit?
Everyone was in an uproar for a moment, then shut up and fell silent.

In the Zhengyi Hall, an atmosphere of awkwardness and inquiry slowly flowed.

After Song Ya was stunned for a moment, although he was also angry that Rong Xiang contradicted him face to face, he could also see that something was obviously wrong with Rong Xiang.

He waved his hands. He cared more about his fellow apprentices than confronting them directly. He let out a long sigh, and his voice softened:
"Rongxiang, calm down, what's wrong with you?"

"It's not that I'm biased, but the situation you described has yet to be verified."

"You said that the black lotus in the sky gave you a cruel spirit, but everyone present was watching this sky phenomenon. Ask if there is anyone else who has experienced this situation?"

Song Ya himself was also a spectator and did not notice the situation that You Rongxiang described.

Moreover, this celestial phenomenon has enabled almost everyone at Xiushui Peak to obtain good fortune, and no one else has said it was bad. Could it be that it only targets appearance?

This is not reasonable at all, and since Master Rongxiang and his apprentice and Master Chengfeng and their apprentice already have an old grudge, it is hard not to think too much.

Master Songya didn't think he was biased in handling this matter.

Rong Xiang closed his eyes. He regretted what he said the moment he said it.

At this moment, the anger in his heart was perhaps diluted by regret, or vented as he spoke, but he finally became a little more sober.

He rubbed his brows tiredly, and his voice became softer:
"Master, please forgive me. I am indeed not in good condition."

"Excuse me, I'll take my leave first."

He stood up, without looking at anyone, and was about to leave.

Naturally, there was no way he could say anything to Ji Chengfeng.

He was certain that his current predicament was caused by Sheng Hongyi.

He didn't do anything to Ji Chengfeng. He was lucky. He was in Zhengyi Palace and had someone to protect him!

Ji Chengfeng suddenly spoke:
"Please stay, Rong Xiang Xingjun."

Song Ya suddenly turned around and glared at Ji Chengfeng without saying anything, but his meaning was very clear: What's the matter? The other person has already left, but you still want to keep him for another fight?
The others remained expressionless and didn't say anything.

Wave after wave, one after another, I don’t know if everyone is numb to it, or if they are all battle-hardened and can keep their composure.

Chen Feng Zhenjun of Ruijin Peak has a rough personality and usually has a very good relationship with Ji Chengfeng. At this moment, he just looked at both sides, then scratched his head and said nothing.

He was called Chen Feng, which was his master's expectation for him, that he should remain calm and collected in any situation, avoid being aggressive, and not be rash and cause trouble.

Today, he found that he had finally learned it.

In fact, he didn’t learn it by himself, but he just didn’t dare!
Rong Xiang used to be a loner, and after he became a spirit, he no longer interacted with his fellow disciples.

Naturally, he didn't like to come forward, since Chengfeng was easy to get along with.

However, today, although these two people seem quite calm at the moment, they both exude an aura that makes people feel terrified.

How dare he speak?

It is better to hide yourself intact.

Rong Xiang's eyes were like a dormant poisonous snake, spitting out its tongue ostentatiously, staring at Ji Chengfeng provocatively and dangerously:
"Do you think I dare not kill you?"

His voice was shallow and dangerous.

Ji Chengfeng cupped his hands:
"Xingjun is wrong. You and I are from the same sect and we don't have any life-and-death feud. How can such a life-and-death matter come from?"

"Chengfeng just wants to say that if Xingjun really has any bad consequences due to astronomical problems, you can come to Chengfeng at any time. As long as there is evidence, Chengfeng will never shirk responsibility."

"Hongyi is Chengfeng's disciple. She is in seclusion now and should not be disturbed. But if she gets into trouble, I, her master, will take the responsibility."

Rong Xiang sneered:
"Are you worthy of it?"

After saying this, he flicked his sleeves, and his figure disappeared from Zhengyi Hall.

evidence?

If there was evidence, would he still waste time arguing with him?
Ji Xiushui is indeed a cunning and treacherous person.

Ji Chengfeng stood where he was, watching the other party walk away, and then said to everyone present:

"This applies to all of you. If it is really the red-clothed celestial phenomenon that caused you to feel uncomfortable, Chengfeng will apologize here first. If you have any problems, come to Xiushui Peak to find Chengfeng."

After saying that, he bowed again and said goodbye.

Songya waved his hand and told everyone to disperse.

Ling Yue waited until everyone had left before he sighed:
"Uncle Chengfeng really loves Junior Sister. Master, is Uncle Rongxiang's condition really caused by Junior Sister's that day?"

Song Ya sat back in the main seat, holding a cup of spiritual tea in his hand, and drank it slowly.

The tea was a little cold, but the best spiritual tea still tasted great even when it was cold.

After finishing his tea, Songya said:

"You are still too superficial in your view of things."

"It's more than just love. Your uncle Chengfeng is clearing your sister's name. His words are very clear. If you have any problems, you can find Ji Chengfeng, but you need evidence. If you don't have evidence, it's just throwing mud!"

"He made his words clear today and showed his tough attitude, which was to show his attitude."

"Your junior sister's astronomical phenomenon does seem a bit ambiguous. If someone exaggerates it, it might cause some trouble."

"But with Ji Chengfeng here, anyone who dares to mess with him will have to bear the consequences from his master." "He is protecting your Junior Sister Sheng and paving the way for her."

Ling Yue was stunned for a moment and didn't understand:
"Pave the road? Pave what road?"

"To pave the way for your junior sister Sheng to become a famous scholar."

"Celebrity?"

Song Ya stared outside the Zhengyi Hall with a distant look.

"Your Junior Sister Sheng, the celestial phenomena are so abnormal, your future prospects must be immeasurable."

"But, she has just recovered from a serious injury, and it is unknown when she can recover her skills."

"Such a great reputation without matching strength may be fatal to a talented cultivator."

"But, today Ji Chengfeng let everyone know that Sheng Hongyi has someone to rely on. She has her master, Xiushui Peak, the Ji family, and the Xuanchen Sect. Even if others want to bully her inside the sect, they have to think twice. But outside the sect, what do you think will happen?"

"If Sheng Hongyi dies, we must be prepared to be hostile to her and her people!"

After listening to Song Ya's explanation, Ling Yue understood.

Uncle Chengfeng is using these external halos to protect his junior sister tightly.

The talented monks who have no one to rely on are pitiful, and many even die halfway.

However, with such a strong support, my junior sister will surely live up to everyone's expectations of her and have a bright future.

After all, she can grow wildly under powerful protection.

Ling Yue sighed, feeling mixed emotions. Junior Sister Sheng was lucky, and so was he.

However, the two of them ended up taking different paths.

The master’s expectations of them are also different.

He has his own responsibilities, and Xuanchenmen is his responsibility.

And what about Junior Sister Sheng, what are Uncle Chengfeng’s expectations for her?

What is a true celebrity?
Any expectations?
Ji Chengfeng returned to Xiushui Peak and immediately went into seclusion.

He was sitting in his room, meditating.

In his mind, he kept replaying the blow that Rong had given him at that time.

In fact, Rong's estimation of him was correct. Before today, he really could not escape unscathed from that brutal attack.

However, that phenomenon might have brought him more than just a change in the strength of his spiritual consciousness.

He spread out his palm, and a ball of spiritual energy suddenly appeared in his palm.

The Ji family has the advantage of water spiritual roots, so most of the skills they practice are water-based.

Because water aura is black, the aura they emit is also mainly black.

The same was true for Ji Chengfeng. The aura ball on his palm was mainly black, with a hint of green, but it was not obvious.

His wood spiritual roots are not as good as his water spiritual roots.

His mind moved, and the black spiritual energy in his palm instantly turned green, and then turned into red, white, and yellow...

There is no stagnation, the mind moves and rotates at will.

In the past, he could actually do it.

After all, he is already a Nascent Soul cultivator, and the spiritual energy in his Dantian is as abundant as the sea.

In this world, he is already considered a great cultivator with the ability to move mountains and seas.

But, today's situation is still different!

He looked at the palm of his hand, and the spiritual energy in his palm had changed along with his gaze.

It turned into a gray mass. If you look closely, you will find that there is abundant spiritual energy flowing in it, which is a different kind of vitality than usual.

It is like a spring, endless.

Ji Chengfeng originally thought that the expansion of his spiritual consciousness was his greatest opportunity, but he didn't expect that it would be this... a breath of anger.

This is... the energy of heaven and earth, right? !
Only the vital energy of heaven and earth has the power to transform into all things.

That was the first breath formed between heaven and earth when chaos first began.

Although this wisp of energy from heaven and earth is very small, it is a spring, better than a seed, and will continuously refine the spiritual energy in his body.

Not to mention how much it will add to his cultivation.

If he could achieve great success and ascend to heaven one day, he would not have to go through the process of converting spiritual energy into immortal energy.

According to legend, this process is the first step to enter heaven and is extremely difficult.

And he actually started making preparations when he was in the Nascent Soul stage.

It’s like countless people running on a track with their heads covered, no one can see each other, but he has already obtained the qualification to move to a higher track!
At the same time, it was this energy of heaven and earth that saved him!

It was just the pressure from a Divine Transformation cultivator. What he used was actually spiritual energy.

However, the vital energy of heaven and earth was mixed into his water shield.

Even if it's just a little bit, but the level is high enough, the spiritual energy will disintegrate on its own in front of the vitality of heaven and earth!
Simply because they are not on the same level at all.

It's like divine power versus spiritual power. With just a flick of the finger, the overwhelming force created by the spiritual power with all its might can be defeated!
And this was the reason why he suddenly confronted Rong Xiang and suddenly and publicly protected his own disciple.

You know, he has never been a high-profile person. He really loves his disciples and is willing to solve any problems for them, but he just solves them silently.

However, times now are different from the past.

For the first time, he clearly realized that his identity as a disciple was not simple.

Over the years, Lianchi and Jingke often came to visit Hongyi, and Ji Chengfeng became more familiar with them.

The closeness these two people showed to Sheng Hongyi really exceeded Ji Chengfeng's stereotype of monks.

Especially Lian Chi, who has become a Buddhist and has cultivated his nature to the point of being detached from the world. How could he be so concerned about a person who is not even a relative of his?

Later, Ji Chengfeng learned that his family member Hongyi and Jingke had a karmic relationship in their previous lives, and the relationship was so close that it could not be severed.

The red clothes are the petals of the red lotus.

Jingke is an elegant name for lotus.

The two men are of similar size and have comparable cultivation levels.

Also, today's astronomical phenomenon saw a black lotus appear in the sky.

No matter what color it is, isn’t it all lotus?
Under the sky, when his consciousness passed through, he accidentally heard the red-clothed mother and his father whispering:

Hongyi's father, look, it's Hei Lian. Do you still remember the night when I gave birth to Hongyi, and I saw a pool of lotus flowers shining with colorful light, but I couldn't see the color clearly?

And when she was born, the lotus flowers in the small pond in front of our house were all in bloom...

Furthermore, Ji Mu was always very secretive about his junior sister's affairs and was very cautious in avoiding them.

And those big guys in red who came to visit the Demonic Realm...

From the clues, Ji Chengfeng had already realized that something was wrong with Sheng Hongyi.
