#1233 - Chapter 1233 Something is wrong

"Mount Zhongnan!" Ye Kong heard the voice and looked up.

Elder Wang arrived late. Before this, he had searched through ancient books and finally found a life-saving remedy that could save Lingli. He rushed over in a hurry.

Ye Kong's hand holding Lingli gradually tightened, and hope ignited in his heart, "Mount Zhongnan. Okay, then I will take Lingli there."

"Wait, don't rush. Although it's Mount Zhongnan, you need to find Master Wuchen. Only he can save Lingli.

And this Master Wuchen has been living in seclusion in the mountains for many years, ignoring worldly affairs. If you blindly go there, I'm afraid it will be a waste of time." Elder Wang had no choice but to reluctantly tell Ye Kong this fact. Now, he could only try his luck.

"Also, the competition for the position of 'Di' character elder has not ended yet. If you choose to withdraw, you will lose this opportunity and will not be allowed to participate again within five years," Elder Wang reminded Ye Kong.

"Saving people is the priority," Ye Kong stated his attitude.

"Alright then. But I must tell you a few things.

You must not use spiritual power on this trip, and teleportation is also forbidden. You must walk step by step to Mount Zhongnan. When you reach the foot of Mount Zhongnan, you must bow down every step of the way until Master Wuchen appears. If he refuses to come out to see you, it means he won't save her, then you should go back."

These conditions were particularly harsh, especially since a man has gold under his knees, how could he easily kneel to others. The corner of Ye Kong's mouth twitched, "I understand, this trip to Mount Zhongnan is a must."

Elder Bai San no longer pressed him, and specially brought the Cloud Ascension Pill from the Bai Clan and placed it in Lingli's mouth. She only needed to hold it gently to preserve her life for seven days.

That is, Ye Kong must reach Mount Zhongnan, which is thousands of kilometers away from here, within seven days.

Ye Kong carried Lingli out, he still needed a carriage.

Hearing that Ye Kong was going to Mount Zhongnan, everyone in the entire Taichu Academy came upon hearing the news, and they all asked to go with Ye Kong.

This trip would probably bring more trouble. Ye Kong could handle it alone, but since he was carrying the burden of Lingli, who was unable to move, he definitely needed someone to help.

Ye Kong declined them one by one, "This is my duty, I really shouldn't trouble everyone."

"We are from the same sect, we should help you," fellow disciples said one after another.

Ye Kong thanked everyone for their kindness and arrived at the gate of Taichu Academy. Except for Elder Wang, no other elder showed up.

Ye Kong hugged Lingli, bid farewell to everyone, and stepped down the steps of Taichu Academy step by step.

Having stayed here for so long, Ye Kong felt for the first time that the steps of Taichu Academy were so many and so long, as if he could never reach the end.

At this moment, a voice came from behind, "Ye Kong, let me go with you!"

Ye Kong turned around and saw Qishan in front of him, not understanding why he would appear here.

"Qishan?"

"It's me, Ye Kong," Qishan scratched his head embarrassedly, "Originally, your rejection was already very obvious, but I am different from others, I really have to go to Mount Zhongnan with you."

Ye Kong's puzzled expression became even more serious, "Why?"

"I forgot to tell you, I am the seventy-eighth disciple of Elder Huo," Qishan looked around when he said this, confirming that no one else could hear this sentence.

As if being a disciple of Elder Huo was a very important secret.

"Because my skills are not good enough, so Master told us not to say that we are his disciples when we are outside. But this time, this matter is indeed Master's fault. As a disciple, I should do something for Master, so that I can feel better," Qishan said in one breath, let out a long sigh, and waited for Ye Kong's response.

Unexpectedly, Ye Kong turned around directly without saying a word.

"Wait, Ye Kong, do you agree or disagree with me going with you?" Qishan teleported to Ye Kong's face.

"Hurry up, the carriage is already waiting for us ahead!" Ye Kong's light sentence gave Qishan a sense of certainty. Qishan said "Hey" and immediately chased after him.

The three disappeared under the steps of Taichu Academy.

And because Ye Kong gave up, this competition for the position of 'Di' character elder gave an opportunity to the disciples ranked second, namely Lin Xing and Long Hui.

Long Hui was defeated by Elder Huo last time, and although Lin Xing was defeated by Ye Kong, after the unanimous recommendation of the twelve elders, they agreed that he and Long Hui would have an additional test.

I haven't seen Lin Xing for so many days, and I thought he had already left Taichu Academy. Unexpectedly, he just practiced in the Ice Cave in the back mountain. When I saw him again, the bone-eroding chill made him look very unapproachable.

And unexpectedly, Long Hui also had a share in this unexpected wealth. He just didn't perform well last time, but he was too confident in fighting Lin Xing.

The duel between the two sides was held on the second day.

It was still the same venue, but there were much fewer spectators below the stage, only the disciples of Taichu Academy. However, they were all Ye Kong's supporters and were just here to watch the excitement.

Long Hui directly hardened his heart and threw several poisonous needles from his sleeve. Unexpectedly, Lin Xing waved his hand and grabbed all the poisonous needles with his bare hands. With another effort, he nailed Long Hui to the stage, unable to move.

Lin Xing came over with the poisonous needle, walking and saying, "It's actually Five Poison Powder, why don't you taste it yourself."

"Ah, don't, don't, I was wrong!" Long Hui immediately begged for mercy.

Lin Xing didn't ask or answer, getting closer and closer, and stabbed the poisonous needle towards Long Hui's face.

Long Hui shouted, "Master, save me!"

Lin Xing still held the poisonous needle, stabbed hard, sneered, and deviated, the poisonous needle pierced into the hair an inch behind Long Hui's ear.

"Vulnerable!" Lin Xing slowly stepped down.

Lin Xing won this competition, and Lin Xing only needs to defeat the twelve elders to be able to take the position of 'Di' character elder.

Unexpectedly, Lin Xing just waved his hand, "I also give up, because we are not qualified enough. The qualified person is not here now, and no one else can even think about sitting on it."

"What are you talking about?" Sima Shizun got up and slammed the table.

Lin Xing didn't care and walked directly off the stage.

This time, the two major disciples of Taichu Academy gave up one after another, making this year's competition for the position of 'Di' character elder a joke.

Sima Shizun was so angry that he confronted Lin Xing that day, but found that all of Lin Xing's things were gone.

On the other side, Ye Kong, who was far away from Taichu Academy, had just arrived at a river with Lingli when he smelled an unusual smell.
