Chapter 283
I was calculating Xiaobai's true strength in my heart, and at the same time, I was also wondering if I would take advantage of this auction to see the top ten of the Hundred Stars List, which I have never seen before.

At this time, Xiao Yan continued: "In addition, it is a real honor to meet Chen Daoyou here. You are the only celestial master in the top ten of the Hundred Stars list who only has the ability to establish a sect, and you can still be ranked No. 4. , must have a lot of advantages, if Chen Daoyou is convenient someday, let's discuss it!"

Do you want to challenge me?
I suddenly understood what Xiaoba was thinking. The Hundred Stars Ranking is based on the status of each completed case. The more difficult a completed case is, the easier it is to rank higher. However, completing a difficult case requires higher strength. , so the ranking of the Hundred Stars List, to a certain extent, is also a ranking of strength.

I, a celestial master of Lizong, are in front of Xiaobai, a celestial master of crossing tribulation, so he must be somewhat dissatisfied in his heart.

Thinking about it this way, the [-]th, [-]th, [-]th, and [-]th names on the Hundred Stars list are all Heavenly Masters, so they wouldn't have the same thoughts as Xiaobai?
If so, will they also say something similar to challenge me?
In an instant, my mind was full of thoughts.

Facing Xiaobai's informal challenge, I just smiled and said: "If you want to compete, then wait until next year, next year there will be a competition for the ten supernatural beings, and then we will definitely have a chance to fight! "

Xiaobai smiled and said, "I'm looking forward to it."

I suddenly hated this Xiaoba a little too, I felt like he was targeting me a little bit.

At this time, Zhang Rui came out to smooth things over and said, "We finally met, why don't we find a place to have some tea."

Nangong Xiong said directly: "I don't have time, if you want to drink tea, you just go."

Xiao Yan also felt that he was not welcome, so he cupped his hands and said to us: "Goodbye, three, see you at the auction!"

After finishing speaking, Xiaobai turned around and left directly. Zhang Rui and Tang Qing were taken aback for a moment, then smiled awkwardly at us, and left with Xiaobai.

From the beginning to the end, Xiao Yan never said a single word to Bai Yusheng and Hu Jiashu.

After Xiao Yan left, Bai Yusheng said: "I am afraid that this son's future achievements will be higher than that of Xiao Jing who is at the helm of the North China Branch, and his talent is also several times that of Xiao Jing!"

Xiao Yan's talent is better than Xiao Jing's! ?

I have seen Xiao Jing's words, his strength is unfathomable, as for his talent, it's hard to say, after all, I don't know what Xiao Jing was like when he was young.

Hu Jiashu smiled and said, "It seems that I have quite a few rivals in this auction."

Then we stayed in Bai Yusheng's White Lion Garden for a long time. After chatting for a while, Bai Yusheng said to us: "Okay, if there is nothing else, you can go back and rest early, you stand here Gossip, too much delay in my business."

I know, this is just Bai Yusheng's rhetoric, his small shop has no business in the first place, it doesn't matter whether we stay here or not.

But since Bai Yusheng wanted to see off the guests, we didn't stay here any longer.

After leaving the White Lion Garden, we went around Penglai Fairy City again, and then went back to the inn to rest.

We rested at the inn for a day, and originally planned to stay in the inn until the auction started, but in the early morning of this day, we heard someone in the inn say that someone went to the back mountain yesterday, and then disturbed the guardian animal of Penglai Fairy City , was eaten, and has not returned yet, and among these few people are Xiaoyan, Zhang Rui and Tang Qing.

Hearing someone say that, I hurried up to ask about the situation.

The person at the inn said: "When I was just going out, I heard from passers-by that they said that the three people from North China, Xiao Yan, Zhang Rui and Tang Qing, went to the back mountain yesterday evening and have not returned so far, so I guess they were eaten by the guardian beast. Lost."

I said, "It turned out to be speculation. I thought someone saw it with their own eyes."

The person at the inn said: "Even if it is a guess, the situation is almost like this. In recent years, many people who wanted to go to the back mountain to plot evil have been killed by the guardian beast. Every time people go to the back mountain, they are killed When it was found, there were only bones left!"

At this time, Hu Jiashu also leaned over and asked, "What is the guardian beast of the back mountain?"

The expression on Nangong Yu's side didn't change. I always felt that she seemed to know about the guardian beast of the back mountain.

The person in the inn shook his head, indicating that he didn't know either.

But he quickly added another sentence: "Although I don't know what it is, but I heard that the beast was arranged there by the master of the spirit. This Penglai fairy city is the second largest city in the spirit world. The strength of the beast guarding here It shouldn't be very weak, maybe it's one of the ghost emperors next to the spirit master."

The people in this inn are also very familiar with the situation in the spirit world. It is no wonder that they are from Penglai Xiancheng.

Nangong Xiong shook his head and said, "It's not those ghost emperors."

Sure enough, Nangong Xiong knew about the situation.

When I went to ask Nangong, she shook her head and said, "Since the spirit master doesn't want others to know the identity of the guardian beast, how could I possibly tell you if you ask me?"

I continued to ask: "Then do you think Xiaobai, Zhang Rui and Tang Qing will die in the back mountain?"

Nangong Xiong said: "How could I know, do you want to go to the back mountain to have a look!?"

To be honest, I have this idea, but I am also worried about causing unnecessary trouble. The back mountain is a forbidden area of ​​Penglai Fairy City, and there will definitely be no good end if you go there.

But then again, Xiaobai, Zhang Rui, and Tang Qing are the elites of the North China Branch Bureau. It is impossible for them not to know the situation in Houshan, so why did they go to Houshan?
What is their purpose! ?
I suddenly wanted to intervene in this matter.

Hu Jiashu said at this time: "Let's wait for the situation. Xiao Yan is the eldest son of the North China Branch, and he may also be the heir of the Xiao family in the future. If something happens to him in Penglai Xiancheng, then the North China Branch will soon My ancestor Xiao Jing will definitely come here in person, if there is no news of Xiao Jing coming, it can only explain one thing, Xiao Yan and others are fine!"

Hu Jiashu was right.

However, in order to find out more information, we did not stay in the inn, but went to the streets of Penglai Fairy City to inquire about some news.

After turning around in this circle, we found that almost all the gossips were talking about the disappearance of Xiaobai, Zhang Rui and Tang Qing in the back mountain. It is said that Penglai County has sent guards to look for it, but No news yet.

After walking around, we went to Bai Yusheng's shop. He is an old senior from Penglai Xiancheng, so he might know some inside information.

But when we got here, only Little Yellow Immortal was looking after the store, its child was still retreating, and Senior Bai Yusheng was nowhere to be found.

I asked Little Huangxian where Bai Yusheng went.

Little Huangxian looked in the direction of the back mountain, the meaning was obvious, Bai Yusheng also went to the back mountain.

I was curious and asked Little Huangxian what Bai Yusheng was doing in the back mountain.

Little Yellow Fairy shook her head at me, expressing that she didn't know either.

Xiao Huang's thinking is relatively simple, and there must be nothing more to ask from here, so we left this White Lion Park to inquire elsewhere, but after a round, we found nothing more.

The back mountain is a forbidden area of ​​Penglai Immortal City, and the entire Penglai Immortal City knows very little about that forbidden area.

The more I think about it, the more mysterious the back mountain becomes, and the more I want to go there for a walk.

When I thought this way, I looked at Nangong Yuzhang, the meaning was obvious, and I asked her if she wanted to go with me.

Nangong Xun said directly: "Chen Yu, you have become more and more courageous recently. Are you not afraid that you will disappear like Xiaobai, Zhang Rui, and Tang Qing?"

I'm naturally afraid, I haven't gone to the Upper Realm to rescue Mai Xiaorou yet.

But if I don't figure out the situation in the back mountain, I will feel extremely itchy.

At this time, Hu Jiashu said: "How about this, we all walk around outside the restricted area in the back mountain, we don't have to go in."

I nodded, this is a good way, it can temporarily satisfy my curiosity, but it is not too dangerous.

Nangong Xie also nodded and said, "Then let's go and have a look."

It seemed that she also wanted to go to the back mountain in her heart.

We walked along a small road in Penglai Fairy City to the back mountain. This road leading to the forbidden area of ​​the back mountain was not guarded by any guards. It didn't take long for us to stand at the mountain pass of the restricted area of ​​the back mountain.

There is still a small road leading to this mountain pass, but the road disappears when you reach this mountain pass. Looking in from this mountain pass, you can see a deep and wide valley, with towering high mountains on both sides.

There is no stream in the valley, but piled up with boulders. Those stones are piled up in the valley, occupying most of the valley. If you go to the back mountain, you have to shuttle among the boulders. Some kind of unpredictable danger lurks.

Standing at the pass of the back mountain and looking at it for a while, Hu Jiashu said, "Forget it, let's leave here. Although we haven't entered the restricted area yet, standing here still makes people feel a little uncomfortable."

Nangong Xiong also nodded and said: "Indeed!"

Just when we were about to turn around and leave, a loud roar suddenly came from the depths of the valley: "Oh!"

The sound was so loud that the entire valley was booming, and the boulders collided with each other and made a "bang bang" sound, making the atmosphere of the whole valley extraordinarily weird.

Nangong Xiong also frowned and said: "The lord is angry, it seems that something really happened in the back mountain!"

I asked Nangong Xiong who was the adult.

Nangong Xiong said: "Who else can be, of course it is the mountain guardian beast."

I haven't continued to ask, Nangong Xie suddenly said again: "Chen Yu, do you dare to go to the back mountain with me to find out what's going on?"

Nangong Xiong offered to go. Didn't she always object to it before?

Before I could speak, Nangong Xiong said again: "I know you don't have the guts, so whatever, I'll go by myself, you save your own life to save your Mai Xiaorou!"

After finishing speaking, Nangong Xiong directly stepped into the valley of the back mountain...
