Bei Xiaoman wanted to introduce other chess players and generals to Ning Fan. Unfortunately, before she could take action, an emergency order called her away.

It seemed that the elders of the West Palace had something urgent and summoned her to ask questions.

This made Bei Xiaoman very disappointed. She originally wanted to introduce Ning Fan to some seniors who were also chess players.

"Xiao Mingming, I have something to go out for. I will introduce you to other senior chess players another day. By the way, when I am not here, please remember to stay in the house and do not go out. Because the second round is approaching, the inner island is now full of fish and dragons.

A sneeze can bring out two real immortals. Your safety when going out alone is very problematic, so I don’t worry about it. Be good, wait for me when I come back at home, and I’ll give you a reward tonight!” Of course it’s a reward for playing chess with you!

Shi Bing drove the Fairy Magpie Car very far, and Bei Xiaoman stuck out his head and kept telling her, for fear that something might happen to Ning Fan when she was not at home.

This made Ning Fan dumbfounded. It seemed that with his level of cultivation, he was afraid of being a true immortal. Forget it, he was too lazy to explain to Bei Xiaoman, whose IQ had dropped drastically. He could just let her be happy.

Bei Xiaoman was not at home, so Ning Fan did have the idea of ​​leaving the house for a walk. There was someone he wanted to see on Xigong Island.

Beiyao...the woman who claimed to be Bei Xiaoman's sister in the Star Palace back then.

[Lu Bei, I’m not looking down on you, it’s just... forget it, you will understand later. The reality is cruel. In many cases, people have no right to choose their fate. 】

[Lu Bei, we can’t do this...this is wrong...]

[I don’t like killing people, but I don’t like him getting hurt even more...]

Memories swirled in his mind, and in a daze, the stubborn smile and angry beautiful eyes of the beautiful woman in palace attire appeared in front of Ning Fan's eyes again.

Until this moment, Ning Fan thought that Bei Yao was one of the four sisters of Bei Xiaoman. Bei Yao, Bei Qinghan, Bei Li, and Bei Xiaoman, didn't they add up to exactly four people? No problem? Okay, Ning Fan

Although I had met Bei Shi and saved Bei Shi, I never thought that Bei Shi was the eldest sister among the four sisters...

"Back then, I had just transformed into a god, and she was a high-ranking true immortal in the Shekong Realm... At that time, I had to look up to see her, but now I might be able to talk to her on an equal footing. But I always feel,

The distance between me and her is not just as simple as cultivation, there is also a further distance that is difficult to bridge. Because of this, I am not sure whether she is willing to see me or not..."

Ning Fan rarely hesitated for a moment, but still made up his mind and walked towards the door of the mansion.

He still wants to see Beiyao, even though the other party may not want to see him.

"Your Excellency, stay here. There are many masters on the inner island right now. With your cultivation level, it's best not to leave the house and wander around. Otherwise, if something goes wrong, we won't be able to explain it to the fourth lady..."

Several guards at the gate of the mansion tried to stop Ning Fan, but they couldn't stop him.

These guards were only of Shaoxu cultivation level and could not even get close to Ning Fan. As soon as Fang got close, he was gently pushed back by a layer of cloud that appeared out of thin air.

"Unexpectedly, I can't get close! This person is definitely not the junior that the fourth lady said, but a second-step power that is stronger than us! Is he the old monster of Mingxian or the old monster of Duzhen?!" Several guards suddenly stopped.

Startled and doubtful.

"Don't worry, everyone. When Ning finishes his work, he will return home and won't embarrass you."

Ning Fan smiled, and his figure finally disappeared into the long street blown by the sea breeze. There was no need to deliberately use the rain technique, he had already sensed the familiar atmosphere somewhere on Nishinomiya Island.

That was Beiyao's breath, not far from him.

…

There are 907 fairy mountains on Xigong Island, one of which is named Upside Down Mountain.

The reason why this mountain is called Upside Down Mountain is because there is a strange spring in the mountain that flows from bottom to top.

In the world of cultivation, a mountain spring flowing backwards is not a strange thing, but the water quality of this mountain spring is also very special.

It's obviously spring water, but when you drink it, you can taste the taste of wine. Do you think it's strange?

It's obviously not immortal wine, but it can make a powerful monk drunk after drinking too much. Do you think it's strange?

The strangest thing is that people who are drunk by this spring water will also have random dreams, dreaming of all kinds of strange things...

The vast majority of people cannot remember anything after waking up from strange dreams, but there are also a very small number of people who can remember the things in their dreams after waking up.

Someone once learned magical powers that had never appeared in the world of cultivation from strange dreams.

Some people have also seen things that will happen in the future from strange dreams.

Someone once made a list of the top ten weird things in the North, and the upside-down spring in Tiaoshan Mountain was one of the top names on the list.

It was the second round of the Northern Heaven Competition, and countless Northern Heaven monks gathered in the Sea of ​​Time. Many of them were interested in the upside-down spring water and came here to seek a drink.

A small number of people want to try their luck and see if they can secretly learn some magical skills in their dreams after being drunk.

Most people simply like wine to sore their throats. The spring water is called spring water, but it tastes better than many fine wines, so it is quite popular among some alcoholics.

At this moment, there were a few drunkards walking drunkenly on the path down the mountain. They had drank to their heart's content and were about to leave.

Suddenly, a drunkard smiled obscenely and pointed to the mountain road ahead, "Beauty, hehe, there is a beauty..."

But it turned out that there was a female cultivator in front of her who was covering her face and was planning to go up the mountain. On the way, she met these drunkards. The female cultivator was dressed in palace clothes and had an extremely unworldly temperament. Even though she deliberately covered her face, her appearance was hard to distinguish, and her plump curves

It still makes people think a lot.

A few drunkards were so drunk that they had no self-control. When they saw the beauty, they immediately wanted to step forward and take advantage.

"You guys are drunk, do you need me to help you sober up..." How could the woman let the drunkard get close to her? Her eyes were slightly cold, and Shekong's coercion suddenly enveloped the three drunkards.

How pitiful! These drunkards are just juniors of the Immortal Immortal. At this moment, they are overwhelmed by Shekong's coercion. No matter how drunk they are, they wake up from the fright. They are teasing the old monster Shekong. Don't you want to live anymore? Everyone broke out in cold sweat and knelt on the ground to complain.

Sin, when he raised his head again, he found that the Shekong woman had already left and didn't even bother to pay attention to them.

"...Alcohol is indeed a harmful thing. If those drunkards offended others, it would be hard to escape the cause and effect. I really don't know that Elder Lin from the Law Enforcement Court invited me here specially to invite me here, or maybe there is really something secret that cannot be told.

Want to discuss with me?"

Yuan Yao murmured to herself that the masked female cultivator who was being teased turned out to be her.

All the way up to the upside down mountain, the surrounding scenery made Yuan Yao feel familiar yet strange. She had not been here for many years. The last time she came here, she was with Luo You.

The wine flags on the top of the mountain were fluttering, but the wine shops above had been changed all over, and there were only one or two old shops left. Yuan Yao still had a vague impression. These wine shops sold ready-made upside-down springs, and the money earned would naturally go to the Palace of the Lost World.

All. Some inns were opened here for drunken monks to rest.

Yuan Yao entered one of the restaurants called Qiuhuang Tower with her face covered, not revealing her breath, obviously not wanting to be recognized. At the window seat on the second floor, Elder Lin from the Law Enforcement Court had been waiting for a long time.

Seeing that the beauty finally arrived, Elder Lin straightened his clothes and stood up to greet her.

This is a gentle and elegant middle-aged monk. His appearance can only be regarded as ordinary, but his eyes give people a sense of righteousness. He has the cultivation of the peak of Sui Nian, and he is the kind of existence who has half-stepped into the eternal immortal. His future is

Many people are optimistic about it; and because he is in charge of the Law Enforcement Court of the Palace of Relics, this person is considered one of the top five most powerful figures in the palace.

Yuan Yao naturally did not want to offend such a person, so she said in a very polite tone, "Sorry, something happened in the palace, which delayed some time and kept Elder Lin waiting for a long time."

"Palace Master, don't worry, Lin has just arrived."

Elder Lin invited Yuan Yao to sit down and ordered some spiritual fruit side dishes to go with the wine.

Seeing that Elder Lin didn't explain his purpose of coming when they met, Yuan Yao couldn't ask more questions, so he had to chat with him all the time, mostly talking about the major events that happened in recent days.

From the occupation of the Jiehe River to the alien invasion, from being kicked out of the Light Clan to the overhaul of Zhao Jian, and from the chaos of cultivation to Zhoutian Dao. This Elder Lin is really a talkative person. You will not be unhappy if you chat with him.

If it were normal times, Yuan Yao would be happy to have a drink and discuss Taoism with such a Taoist friend. Unfortunately, she has been having a lot of troubles recently and is in a bad mood. In addition, she doesn't like drinking much, but she has been persuaded by Elder Lin to have six or seven drinks.

, somewhat impatient.

"Didn't Elder Lin say that you have something secret to tell me? Why don't you speak up?" Although Yuan Yao was impatient, this question was still polite after all.

"Haha, in this case, Lin has something to say. As soon as the Beitian Competition is over, the fourth lady will get married to Water Sect Daozi. Lin secretly thinks that this matter is inappropriate." Elder Lin made a shocking statement.

, but these words touched Yuan Yao’s heart.

Of course this is inappropriate! Xiaoman doesn't like Shuizong Daozi at all, so how can he marry him? Xiaoman likes Lu Bei, and has already had various incidents with Lu Bei...

But it's not appropriate, so what...

Yuan Yao sighed bitterly. She wanted to fulfill the relationship between Xiao Man and Lu Bei. Unfortunately, the people in the Palace of Relics wanted to use Xiao Man to marry Shuizong.

She objected to this matter time and time again, but how could her opposition be greater than the opinions of the entire palace?

It's not that she has never fought against her master, but all her struggles are in vain.

She is not a qualified mother, she cannot even choose the marriage she wants for her daughter...

Seeing Yuan Yao sighing, Elder Lin knew that his words had touched Yuan Yao's mind, and he was secretly happy, "Sure enough, the palace master also cares about this matter."

"..." Yuan Yao didn't say anything, but she acquiesced to the matter. She didn't like drinking, so she drank seven or eight glasses of wine in one breath, and her face turned a little red.

"It's no wonder that the Palace Master would mind. Lin knew how lonely the Palace Master was. When Taoist monk Lin died, Lin was lonely for a long time..." Wait, the topic seems to be a bit off.

Yuan Yao frowned slightly, and as expected, Elder Lin's words became more and more biased, "The Palace Master and Brother Bei are deeply in love with each other. This matter was once rumored to be the talk of Bei Tian, ​​but after all, Brother Bei has fallen for a thousand years, and the Palace Master has been single for a thousand years, and his mind is gone.

Now, it’s time to find a Taoist companion again..."

"Elder Lin means..."

"Palace Master, what do you think of Lin?" Elder Lin finally explained his intention.

Yuan Yao felt dumbfounded. Usually when she worked with Elder Lin, she could hardly speak a few words. She really didn't know what the other party liked about her.

"Is this what Elder Lin said about telling someone something secret?"

"Isn't the important matter of marriage considered a secret matter?" Elder Lin smiled gracefully.

"...Sorry, I have no intention of finding another Taoist companion after my husband passed away." Yuan Yao tried her best to organize her words to refuse.

"Haha, Palace Master, please don't refuse in a hurry. I only think that Palace Master and Brother Bei have a deep love for each other. What Lin appreciates is the Palace Master's dedication to feelings..."

"...You are wrong. Bei Changkong and I have no deep love as husband and wife, even holding hands..." Yuan Yao wanted to explain something, but suddenly remembered the confidentiality regulations and kept silent.
To be continued...
