Chapter 205 Ignoring Bi Chenzi

"This……"

Xiao Baiming's expression froze for a moment.

He wanted to say something more, but Bi Chenzi clearly wasn't going to give him that chance again.

Then he turned to look at Ji Haoyuan, and said with a smile:
"Fellow Daoist Nanhua, if you don't mind, I'll have someone take you to that top-grade third-tier cave dwelling. What do you think?"

In his view, there was nothing wrong with what he had just said.

On the contrary, their words were entirely considerate of the other person.

The other party had just arrived and had absolutely no reason to refuse his suggestion.

Unfortunately, he never truly understood Ji Haoyuan.

In fact.

The moment he heard that the person in front of him was from the Shingon sect, a chill ran through him.

Furthermore, he has already decided that no matter what this person says in the future, he will not make any statement or even respond unless necessary.

Therefore.

When Bi Chenzi asked for his opinion, Ji Haoyuan completely ignored him and kept his gaze fixed on Xiao Baiming, smiling as he said:
"Fellow Daoist Xiao, I would appreciate it if you could help me make arrangements for the cave dwelling."

His attitude immediately caused Bi Chenzi, who was standing to the side, to narrow his eyes.

A fierce glint suddenly flashed deep in his eyes.

Xiao Baiming, on the other side, and the others were also clearly somewhat surprised.

Obviously, Ji Haoyuan didn't expect that he would choose to completely ignore Bi Chenzi.

It seems that between these two people...

Several people present couldn't help but feel a chill.

Some even regretted coming back.

Xiao Baiming, after his initial surprise, quickly realized what was happening and immediately smiled and nodded at Ji Haoyuan.

“In that case, I will personally arrange a cave dwelling for you, Fellow Daoist Nanhua.”

"Well then, I'll have to trouble you, Fellow Daoist Xiao."

Ji Haoyuan politely thanked him.

Before coming here, he had already done a detailed investigation. In this Dongshan Pass, the only people he could cooperate with, besides a few Golden Core cultivators from independent cultivation backgrounds, were Xiao Baiming.

This person comes from the Xiao family, a family of Nascent Soul cultivators.

Although he possessed the cultivation level of the late Golden Core stage, according to the information Shi Siyao gave him, he advanced to the late Golden Core stage by using some relatively clever methods.

This resulted in his combat strength not being particularly strong in the late stage of the Golden Core realm.

In addition, he was often suppressed by Bi Chenzi from the Zhenyan Sect within Dongshan Pass.

They don't have that much say.

He is even inferior to Xiahou Qingshan, who comes from a prestigious Golden Core clan.

This is the main reason why he reacted that way when he saw Ji Haoyuan, a person with the combat power of the late Golden Core stage, come to them.

now.

Ji Haoyuan was already following Xiao Baiming, heading towards their eastern defense line of Dongshan Pass.

This caused Bi Chenzi, who was witnessing the scene before him, to lose his composure and his expression immediately darkened.

A man with a scar on his forehead moved closer, a cold glint in his eyes, and whispered:

"Fellow Daoist Bi Chenzi, that Nan Hua was taken to the eastern defense line by that fellow surnamed Xiao. What should we do next?"

This man was named Gao Quan, and he was one of the five people who discussed matters that day.

Upon hearing his words, Bi Chenzi's gloomy face turned cold, and he narrowed his eyes, coldly saying:

"Humph!

Now that he's here, no matter which area of ​​the defense line he's assigned to, I will make sure he shoulders the heaviest burden!

……

“Fellow Daoist Nanhua, this cave dwelling is the best mid-grade third-tier cave dwelling on our eastern defense line.”

While it can't compare to the top-grade third-tier cave dwelling on the northern defense line, it's much safer. Unless something major happens, Fellow Daoist Nanhua, you can rest in the cave dwelling.”

In front of a cave dwelling imbued with spiritual energy.

Xiao Baiming spoke to Ji Haoyuan with a smile.

Upon hearing his words, Ji Haoyuan's heart immediately stirred, and he couldn't help but ask:

"Fellow Daoist Xiao, you said that the advantage of this cave is its safety."

"Then that third-tier high-grade cave dwelling that Bi Chenzi just mentioned, could it be...?"

Xiao Baiming nodded.

"I won't lie to you, although that cave is a third-grade high-quality one, its location is one of the areas in Dongshan Pass that has suffered the most attacks from demonic beasts."

If you had actually chosen that cave dwelling back then, you probably wouldn't have had much peace for the next few years.

really.

Upon hearing Xiao Baiming's explanation, Ji Haoyuan sneered inwardly.

They've only just arrived here, and they're already scheming against me.

It seems that the Shingon sect really wants to get rid of me.

Thinking of this, a trace of killing intent rose in his heart.

After Xiao Baiming took his leave, Ji Haoyuan immediately used his divine sense to inspect the entire cave.

Although the other party is someone I can cooperate with, I still need to be wary of them.

With his current peak Golden Core cultivation level, it would be impossible for him to conceal his detection.

After Ji Haoyuan confirmed that there were no problems inside the cave, he sat down cross-legged and began to slowly regulate his breathing.

For several months, Ji Haoyuan hardly ever left his cave dwelling.

Aside from a few exchanges with Xiao Baiming and several other rogue cultivators at the Golden Core stage who were stationed there, he seemed to have no connection to the mission of guarding the area.

Two months later, at this point, the time had passed again.

A message suddenly arrived outside his cave.

After opening the barrier and taking a look at the message, Ji Haoyuan immediately gave a cold smile.

"Is it finally here?"

After saying that, he didn't hesitate any longer, got up and left the cave, and then headed towards the council hall where the thirteen Golden Core cultivators were holding their meeting.

now.

Several people were already seated inside the council hall.

Among them were Xiao Baiming, Bi Chenzi, and Xiahou Qingshan.

As soon as Ji Haoyuan entered the council hall, he immediately felt that several pairs of eyes were fixed on him.

Although it was well concealed.

However, even with Ji Haoyuan's peak Golden Core level divine sense, he could still clearly detect several malicious intents.

However, he ignored him and, with a smile, went straight to sit down next to Xiao Baiming.

Once all thirteen Golden Core cultivators had gathered in the council hall, Bi Chenzi immediately spoke first:

"Gentlemen, we have just received news that a large beast tide will soon be attacking our northern defense line at Dongshan Pass."

You should know what this matter truly means.

"A massive beast tide?"

Upon hearing Bi Chenzi's words, the expressions on the faces of many Golden Core cultivators present changed drastically.

They certainly knew what a massive beast tide meant.

To be honest, so far, none of the several beast tides that Dongshan Pass has experienced have reached the scale of a large-scale beast tide.

It's at most close.

But judging from what Bi Chenzi said, the beast tide that might appear on their northern defense line of Dongshan Pass soon would actually be a large-scale beast tide in the true sense.

This is probably going to be a real problem.
