In fact, for so many years, Liu Sulan had never known Dongfang Jingrou's job in the Holy Land, and always thought that she was still an inner disciple.
Dongfang Jingrou also explained that she was the steward of the City Lord's Mansion in Chuanliu City, so the man was her boss.
But before they entered the hall, they were holding hands, and the beautiful woman had already noticed it.
How could Elder Liu believe that they had a purely superior-subordinate relationship?
The way she looked at Zhao Kangping became more and more like a mother-in-law examining her son-in-law.
Although Chuanliu City is a subsidiary city of Ziyang Holy Land, it has no hierarchical relationship with Wanghe Sect, so Elder Liu would not look down on the city lord who came from afar.
Zhao Kangping was also very tactful. He knew that the master and disciple had not seen each other for a long time, so he took the initiative to reduce his presence so that they could reminisce about the past.
"Master, I haven't seen you for many years. You are still the same, you haven't changed at all. I haven't come to see you for a long time. How are you doing recently?" Dongfang Jingrou asked with concern.
Liu Sulan frowned, shook her head, and sighed softly: "Oh, it's a long story."
Then she looked at Zhao Kangping and said to Tong Yuexin, "Yuexin, please arrange a room for this distinguished guest."
"Jingrou, you have come all the way here, so please stay here tonight. I have so much to say to you."
It seemed that the master and disciple had something to say in private, but it was not convenient for them to tell Zhao Kangping, an outsider.
Afterwards, Zhao Kangping was led by Tong Yuexin to a guest room.
The room was spotless, probably due to a permanent dust-proof formation. Everything inside was neatly arranged.
There was a flower bed not far from the door, and when he opened the window he could see the clouds between the mountain peaks. He observed and found that the direction the window faced was just right for him to see the rising sun.
The environment here is pretty good.
Yes, this seems to be a double room.
"Brother-in-law, are you really my senior sister's man?" Tong Yuexin looked at Zhao Kangping carefully again.
The man is handsome and a rare beauty. No wonder senior sister likes him.
When Zhao Kangping heard her question, he felt speechless. This question was so strange.
But he couldn't tell what was strange about it.
He was stunned for a moment and then said, "Yes."
Junior Sister Tong was a little surprised. She said, "That's great. Even with such a bad temper, someone still wants you. Brother-in-law, you've really had a hard time."
"It's okay, her temper is not bad." Zhao Kangping has been in contact with Dongfang Jingrou for some time.
Although she was difficult to approach at first, after getting to know her, he found that she was actually quite soft-hearted.
"I think it must be because my brother-in-law is so charming. She used to lose her temper with me often and sometimes even hit people." Tong Yuexin couldn't bear to look back on the past.
Zhao Kangping always had the illusion that this junior sister was telling tales about him.
No, it wasn't an illusion, she was just exposing that woman's shortcomings.
"Really? I don't think she's that difficult to get along with." Zhao Kangping disagreed with her one-sided statement.
Or maybe, this is a test for Junior Sister Tong.
If he became alienated from Dongfang Jingrou because of her simple words, then he would not be a person worthy of trust.
Zhao Kangping would not be fooled so easily.
Sure enough, Junior Sister Tong smiled slyly: "Hehe, it seems that my brother-in-law really likes me."
Does he like her?
Or is it really just as he said, that he probably likes her a little bit.
But it hasn't reached the point of being in love to death.
He deeply understood that the relationship between two people needs to be tested. Only when they have gone through all kinds of things and still choose to be together, can it be considered true love.
He, his senior sister, and his two disciples have been together for many years and know each other very well, which is why they are so close.
"Junior Sister Tong, can I take a walk around your sect?" Zhao Kangping glanced at the sky. It was still early in the evening, and he wanted to go out for a walk.
The woman thought for a moment and said, "Of course you can, but there are a few places you can't go."
"It's our sect's Sutra Library, the Sect Master's Peak, and the Yanhua Pool where the female disciples bathe." Tong Yuexin said with a wicked smile.
The first two are easy to understand, and there is no need to emphasize the latter one.
Mr. Zhao would never bother to peek at a woman taking a bath.
It depends on whether there is one available at home, or even if you want to find your own girls to bathe with you.
"Also, if my brother-in-law wants to go out for a walk, it's best if I accompany him. Firstly, I can act as a guide, and secondly, it will prevent him from going to the wrong place."
"Okay then, I'll do as you say."
So under the guidance of Tong Yuexin, Zhao Kangping began to tour Wanghe Sect.
This sect did not appear in the original story, so the protagonists had never been here.
This was his first time in Wanghe Sect, so he was unfamiliar with everything here.
But with Tong Yuexin's introduction, he quickly became familiar with the terrain here.
Because Tong Yuexin trusts Dongfang Jingrou unconditionally, she also believes that Zhao Kangping is not a bad person.
She has no sense of vigilance at all. Should we say she is careless or naive?
According to her introduction, Zhao Kangping learned that the old leader of Wanghe Sect was seriously injured some time ago and has not recovered yet.
The Wanghe Sect is currently managed by the Grand Elder Feng Buxuan.
However, when Tong Yuexin mentioned Elder Feng, she looked displeased, as if she didn't like this person very much.
However, the woman did not waste much time on this topic and soon started talking about other things.
With Tong Yuexin's endless chatter, Zhao Kangping also learned the names of various landmarks in Wanghe Sect.
She talked about interesting things, which senior brother and junior sister became Taoist couples, and how someone's alchemy furnace exploded and accidentally injured a passing disciple. She talked about everything, whether it was something interesting or not.
When passing the peak where the Great Elder was, Zhao Kangping suddenly saw a shuttle-shaped flying magic weapon take off from the peak. Then, in the blink of an eye, it turned into a stream of light in the sky.
Wait, why does this shuttle look so familiar?
Zhao Kangping narrowed his eyes and pondered, and soon a flash of light came into his mind.
This seems to be the flying magic weapon of Su Yuelin, the Dog Saint Son of the Yuhua Holy Land.
The style and model are exactly the same.
And just now, he sensed a familiar aura on the shuttle.
What’s going on? Why did that Dog Saint come to Wanghe Sect?
Chapter 244: Hidden Dangers of Wanghe Sect, Dinner at Sunv Peak
"Who was that just now?" Zhao Kangping asked, pointing at the shuttle that was gradually moving away in the sky.
Tong Yuexin shook her head and said, "I'm not sure, he should be the distinguished guest of the Great Elder."
Distinguished guest?
Zhao Kangping felt a little creepy when he heard this word.
Because Wanghe Sect is a subsidiary sect of Ziyang Holy Land, it has to pay tribute to the holy land almost every year.
The tribute is not just spiritual stones, elixirs and treasures. If there are disciples in such affiliated sects who pass the holy land trial and enter the holy land, they can also deduct the tribute quota.
As the superior sect of a vassal sect, the Ziyang Holy Land also needs to provide assistance when it is invaded by foreign enemies.
However, such a sect that needs to rely on the Ziyang Holy Land is suspected to have unclear and unexplainable dealings with the hostile forces of the Holy Land.
This is a serious situation and must be taken seriously.
He suspected that the Yuhua Holy Land wanted to steal the Ziyang Holy Land's business.
Although the Yuhua Holy Land is in the southern region, it is very far from here.
But how can I allow others to sleep soundly next to my bed?
If Wanghe Sect turns to the Yuhua Holy Land, or colludes with the other side, it would be too embarrassing.
"Can you tell me about this great elder?" Zhao Kangping suddenly became interested in the owner of the mountain in front of him.
……
After returning to the mountain where Elder Liu was, someone had already set up a table there to welcome Dongfang Jingrou.
At this moment, Zhao Kangping had no smile on his face and sat down in his seat with a cold expression.
But in order not to ruin the wonderful atmosphere of the banquet, he still forced a smile.
Zhao Kangping learned that Elder Liu was over 800 years old, much older than him. If she hadn't possessed the precious treasures that extended her lifespan and reached the Spiritual Transformation Stage, she would probably only have lived for a hundred years or so.
Liu Sulan hosted a banquet and invited all her disciples.
It turned out that she had not only Dongfang Jingrou and Tong Yuexin as her disciples, but also two other female disciples, both of whom were accepted by Dongfang Jingrou after she left Wanghe Sect.
So neither of them had ever met Dongfang Jingrou.
However, after their master and senior sisters introduced her, they knew that this was the genius senior sister who was often mentioned.
This is the glory of their school and their master's most proud disciple.
Not only did he become a disciple of the Zi Yang Holy Land, but his current cultivation level has also surpassed that of his master.
But Zhao Kangping was still a little absent-minded.
He learned from Tong Yuexin that Elder Liu's condition was not good.
The mountain where they were was called Sunv Peak, and it was not called Sunv Peak because Elder Liu's name contained the word "Su".
It was Elder Liu who changed his name to what it is now after he succeeded as Peak Master. This seems to be a tradition at Sunv Peak; every Peak Master of Sunv Peak must change his name after taking the throne.
If Tong Yuexin inherits the position of peak master in the future, she may have to change her name to Tong Suxin.
But these are not the main points.
Now Sunv Peak is being suppressed because Liu Sulan offended the Great Elder.
This involves the factional struggle within the Wanghe Sect.
Damn it, there are factional struggles everywhere.
The dinner was simple, with only six people in total.
Although everyone at the banquet was forcing themselves to smile, Zhao Kangping always felt that the atmosphere was still a little heavy.
Dongfang Jingrou had been away from Sunv Peak for many years, and she also learned some things from her master.
But in order to take care of everyone's mood, she still tried to talk about happy things.
For example, she told everyone about the friends she made in Ziyang Holy Land, the problems she encountered during her cultivation in the Holy Land and how she solved them, and what missions she participated in. In short, she told everyone all the interesting things she could think of.
The main purpose of this banquet was to chat, and the food was simple, just some light pastries.
Zhao Kangping could hardly get a word in and could only act as a listener.
Dongfang Jingrou spent a long time chatting with the people from Sunv Peak at the banquet. Her three junior sisters each introduced themselves, and all three of them were quite talkative.
After all, they were all sisters from the same sect, and with the bond of master-disciple, they quickly started chatting.
Everyone was talking and laughing.
But Zhao Kangping felt a little out of place.
At this time, Elder Liu noticed Zhao Kangping who was silent beside him, and then he remembered that he had neglected this guest.
"Fellow Daoist, I heard from Jingrou that you are the mayor of Chuanliu City."
"Yes."
"I also heard from Yuexin that you want to become a Taoist partner with Jingrou."
As soon as these words were spoken, the sisters who were chatting just now stopped talking.
The scene suddenly became eerily quiet.
Swish!Swish!Swish!
The women all turned their eyes to Zhao Kangping. At this moment, he really wanted to dig out a three-bedroom apartment with his toes.
