Who brought this guy into the monastic circle?.

Chapter 223 Meeting
After the turmoil on the Tianjiao Ranking, the number of cultivators coming and going from Baidi City decreased visibly.

It is not known whether this move by the Supervisory Office can be considered as a destruction, but the Tianwen Tower in the city is still under construction in an orderly manner.

"The Dragon and Phoenix Palace and the Imperial Court seem to have made a huge investment. They have replaced the ordinary craftsmen with the Mo family to build it. It is estimated that the entire building will be completed in a few days."

Ye Hei accompanied Han Yu through the city. Huangfu Liang was forced to be dragged out with his face twisted into a knot.

To use Han Yu's own words, Ou Mingdong has finally had the chance to be alone with Su Wanjun, so he should not stay and cause trouble.

Several people watched in the distance as a group of Mohist disciples were carrying various woods and flying up and down. The foundation of the building had been completed, and now it seemed that they had begun to work on the construction of the building. Many people from Baidi City who were just as curious as them also gathered around to watch.

After all, I have seen many monks, but seeing a monk doing carpentry work is something I have never seen before.

Ye Hei watched with admiration, there were not many opportunities to invite the Mohist school to undertake a large-scale construction project. Currently, only the fifth floor of the imperial hall was built by the Mohist school, so it was conceivable that this Tianwen Tower must also be a large project.

"Once Tianwen Building is completed, the first change of the list should be brought forward."

Ye Hei obviously had some information channels and was able to learn the inside story early on.

But it is normal. As the eldest senior brother of Wushuang Tower, he already has corresponding rights. He is also outstanding enough and is the face of the new generation of disciples in Wushuang Tower. He knows most of the sect's affairs, even the cooperation with the court.

Speaking of changing the list, Han Yu suddenly remembered the previous list, smiled, and spoke jokingly.

"Speaking of the list, Brother Ye was ranked third last time."

This is certainly not a joke. When the results were announced that day, there might have been some controversy over the first and second names, but there was no controversy about the third name, Ye Hei.

Hearing this, Ye Hei smiled bitterly and shook his head, "You may not believe this, but when the list was recorded, the Supervisory Department wanted to put me first. Fortunately, the Great Elder went to Dengque Tower and made a fuss for a while, so I was ranked third."

"I don't even have the chance to go up if I want to, but you guys don't seem to want to go up."

Huangfu Liang couldn't help but interrupt, saying that if he could make it into the top ten of the Tianjiao List, he would surely become famous in the cultivator world, what a great thing.

"Everything has its pros and cons. Sometimes if you are too high up on the list, you will have more trouble."

This is the only explanation Ye Hei could give for this.

Everyone was well aware of the court's plan. If the sect had not reached an agreement with it, the disciples of the nine sects might not want to go up and become a living target.

Once more people compete for fame and fortune, won't we have to deal with various challenges endlessly all day long?

What faster way to become famous than defeating the top ten disciples of the Nine Sects?

There is no benefit in winning, and losing will bring shame to the sect. It is a thankless job.

However, if the Nine Sects do not participate in the Tianjiao List, its value will be greatly reduced, and it may even become a wild list.

The sect knew there was a trap but still stepped on it, but in the end it was still these disciples who were trapped.

Now, the disciples of the nine sects are shirking the responsibility of taking the first place. If possible, they would even like to drop a few places down in the ranking, as the positions at the front are too conspicuous.

"The Supervisory Department should have a backup plan so that you won't be overwhelmed."

Han Yu lowered his head to think and then smiled.

After all, the Supervisory Department's move is to make all the sects jump out, not to make all the sects fight each other, so the means cannot be so simple and crude.

"Hmm! The methods of the Dengque Tower Master have always been watertight. He should have other plans."

Ye Hei nodded. From his point of view, the purpose of the Tianjiao List was to collect information about the Tianjiao, but if you look deeper, it might also be a survey of the sects behind the cultivators on the list.

He himself is involved in the sect's management, so he is naturally well aware of the sect's operations. It can be said that the more disciples a sect has on the list, the more it can demonstrate the sect's resource capabilities and disciple training capabilities.

These are all the keys hidden behind it.

If the Supervisory Department is willing, after sorting and classifying the list, perhaps it can also rank these sects according to seniority.

So, this is the deeper purpose of the Supervisory Department, wanting to investigate each sect in the world of cultivators?
As Han Yu thought about it carefully, he felt that Ye Hei's idea was quite close to the real intention of the Supervisory Office.

But Ye Hei is really amazing. He can actually see through the intentions of the Supervisory Office.

"By the way, how long are we going to stop shopping?"

Huangfu Liang looked around, fearing that someone would suddenly jump out and attack them.

"Of course I have to go around until the monks in Baidi City know I'm here."

Han Yu shrugged and said, now that the news from the Supervisory Office has been spread, naturally people have to know that he has come to Baidi City.

But Huangfu Liang was not optimistic. Ou Mingdong was beaten like this just now, and then the news of another dragon blood stone was released. Even the dumbest person should know that this is a trap. How could the other party fall into it?

"That depends on how much they value the Dragon Blood Stone."

Ye Hei smiled coldly.

First, the useless senior brother from Langya Mountain escaped from the sect with the Dragon Blood Stone and was robbed and killed. Later, Ou Mingdong was ambushed by someone. The other party should be determined to win.

"If the bait is not enough, my junior brother's stone is still with me, I can use it as bait too."

Ye Hei originally came here with this plan, but Han Yu got there first. If it were two pieces of dragon blood stone, it would surely be tempting enough!
The three of them walked along the way, and after walking for a while, they suddenly came towards them with a group of monks, and it seemed that they were coming towards them.

"Mr. Han!"

The leader stepped forward and saluted. Han Yu looked him up and down. He was about forty years old and his cultivation level was just above the Spiritual Realm. The same was true for the other seven people behind him.

Seeking elixir? Or perhaps for the dragon blood stone?
It seems that it is not the case. After the visitor bowed, he spoke in a muffled voice, "My master would like to have a chat with you, sir."

This is a rare thing. If someone invites you, would you go?
"Go and have a look. I'll go with you."

Ye Hei leaned in and spoke quietly.

The person who came to look for someone at this critical moment is probably here for the Dragon Blood Stone.

"Or, I'll go with you!"

Huangfu Liang hesitated to speak, but was interrupted by Han Yu. There were eight people in the God-Gaze ​​Realm who were running errands for the other party. With a team consisting of people in the God-Gaze ​​Realm, their cultivation must be high. If the other party really had ulterior motives, Huangfu Liang's cultivation would be of no help, and Han Yu would have to be distracted to look after them.

"Go back to the government office and wait for me."

"Okay then!" Huangfu Liang sighed. His current cultivation level was indeed low, and he also understood that he would definitely be a drag if he went.

Then Han Yu and Ye Hei followed the group of cultivators out...
-
In the residential area in the west of the city, the further Han Yu followed the monk, the gloomier his expression became. This road was clearly leading to Bai Mansion.

Sure enough, not long after, the plaque of Bai Mansion appeared in front of several people. When Han Yu was about to attack, the group of cultivators turned around and walked towards the house opposite Bai Mansion.

Ye Hei obviously noticed Han Yu's abnormality and came over to ask in a low voice.

"what happened?"

Han Yu glanced at the Bai Mansion behind him and whispered, "That's my friend's mansion."

Ye Hei's face immediately frowned and became gloomy as well.

What a despicable method! This is clearly a silent threat. A dignified monk is using the tricks of mortals and using his relatives and friends to coerce him?

Several people entered a house, where there were pavilions, waterside pavilions, and flowing water under a small bridge. However, Han Yu had no intention of looking at them. Instead, he stared at an attic in front of him.

“There is a monk in the Transcendent Realm!”

In the sea of ​​consciousness, the spirit of the weapon is reminding.

After entering the attic, the interior is decorated in a simple style. There is a huge screen with a landscape painting on it. Beyond the screen, you can see a middle-aged man in his forties sitting cross-legged on a mat and making tea at a tea table.

The man had a white face and a long beard, and looked elegant. He was wearing a black and white robe, and seemed quite calm in his words and actions.

As the tea aroma wafted in the air, the silver kettle began to hum with hot water. The middle-aged man took the teacups and washed the tea set slowly, and soon added three cups of tea.

"So he is a dilettante. People like him are the most difficult to deal with."

Ye Hei spoke to Han Yu without any hesitation.

After hearing this, the other party paused with his hand holding the silver pot. A trace of anger flashed across his face, but he quickly calmed down and spoke slowly.

"My friend, you said I was a pretentious person? What do you mean?"

Ye Hei took a step forward, looked around, sneered, and then spoke like a machine gun.

"If you want to call me a bastard, just call me that. What's the point of talking about little friend or not? Although the layout of your place is very simple and ancient, it is still a bit too deliberate."

Who the hell had nothing better to do than to buy a temporary house and decorate it like this? The house is old but the furnishings are new, it's obviously a temporary arrangement.

"Also, I don't know if you are particular about brewing tea, but you should boil spiritual tea instead of steeping it. You act like a nouveau riche."

Spiritual tea is different from ordinary tea. It needs to be cooked before the spiritual energy can be released. Drinking it the way he does is like a cow chewing a peony.

In Ye Hei's eyes, this guy looked like a monk, but also like a nouveau riche among mortals.

Han Yu was stunned at once. He didn't expect Ye Hei to be so ruthless when dealing with others.

The middle-aged man immediately turned gloomy and poured out all three cups of tea at once. Then he pointed at the cushion in front of them with a stern face.

"Please sit down, both of you."

After the two men sat down, the middle-aged man looked at Ye Hei deeply.

"You are trying to provoke me, aren't you afraid that I will kill you?"

It is extremely easy for a transcendent monk to kill a great perfection monk. He doesn't know where the other party gets the confidence from.

“You don’t dare to take action in the city, and you don’t dare to bet whether I take the elders of the sect with me.”

Ye He looked up and looked at him without fear, and spoke with a smile. He had been dealing with Transcendental cultivators for many years, and they were with the Nine Sects. It was impossible for him to be afraid of a Transcendental cultivator outside the Nine Sects.

"Wushuanglou Ye Hei, huh? Very good."

The middle-aged man smiled meaningfully and then looked at Han Yu.

"I know you have a piece of dragon blood stone, how about selling it to me?"

He came straight to the point and spoke without any hesitation.
