In the empty temple, Tianpeng half-squinted his eyes, seemingly calm, but his voice was filled with turmoil.
“Just average.”
Zhong Wen smiled and said, "Senior, you are so complimentary."
The huge temple was empty. Apart from Tianpeng, there were only red pandas black and white accompanying Zi Zaitian. Even Lao Pao and Tian Shui were not present.
If Lin Bei is included, Zhong Wen's side actually has the upper hand in numbers.
"First you saved Cong Youxian under my eyes, and now you have brought Lin Bei into the world of freedom!"
Tianpeng suddenly opened his eyes wide and made a sound like thunder, which made the whole temple rumble with echoes and tremble, "Do you feel that you are kind to Zi Zaitian, so I don't dare to touch you?"
"Senior, we are in a cooperative relationship after all. There is no need for these vain temptations, right?"
Facing Tianpeng's terrifying pressure, Zhong Wen still had a smile on his face and his tone was extremely relaxed, "Since you have already let go of Cong Youxian's matter, why bother bringing it up again? As for him..."
As he spoke, he glanced at Lin Bei intentionally or unintentionally: "If it was really Lin Bei, how could you let him enter the free world?"
"What's going on with him?"
Tianpeng was silent for a long time, and his tone was still cold, but not as intense as before, "Listen to Black and White, you can't see the soul in Lin Bei's body?"
What a powerful yin-yang pupil!
Zhong Wen's eyelids twitched, and his heart was filled with panic. He couldn't help but have a new understanding of the red panda's eye skills.
"Lin Bei is dead..."
He calmed down and picked out some eloquent stories about what happened after leaving Zi Zaitian, while skipping everything related to the "Xinhua Sutra Pavilion".
Even though he hid a lot, the explosive content still shocked Tianpeng and left him speechless for a long time.
"You, you mean..."
Black and white's face was full of disbelief, and he stuttered and asked, "Are you the current master of Shijue Palace?"
"Isn't that so? Please call me the Lord of the Palace."
Zhong Wen smiled and said, "How about it, little panda, do you want to come to the Spiritual Sea as a guest?"
"A few days ago, you were just a helpless human from the lower world without any heel or legs to rely on."
Tianpeng and Black and White looked at each other, and after a long while, they looked at Zhong Wendao with indescribable eyes, "It has only been so long, and you have actually become the master of a domain. Your human race has a saying called "Live for a long time, see you for a long time, don't deceive me."
"There's nothing you can do about it, gold will shine wherever you put it."
Zhong Wen patted his chest and said proudly, "A man as brilliant as me can't keep a low profile even if he wants to."
"Don't be too happy too early. The reason why the Black Coffin High Priest ran away was because he thought Lin Bei was still alive."
Tianpeng didn't seem to be able to see his arrogance, and sneered and said, "Even if Cang Youxian is willing to keep the secret for you, the news of Lin Bei's death will one day spread, and then you will inevitably face the crazy revenge of the black coffin.
And nearby forces such as Yanguang Buddha Kingdom, Jinyao Empire and Hell Valley are greedy for the resources of the Psychic Sea, and they are bound to come to get a piece of the pie. When the time comes, how will you, a little soul state, deal with it? As long as you have the will, you can do it.
It is not difficult to deal with the puppets with Chaos Realm."
"What senior said is true."
The smile on Zhong Wen's face gradually faded, and a light flashed in his eyes as he said word by word, "So this junior comes here with a proposal."
Tianpeng stared at him with a smile but not a smile, with a bit of teasing and a bit of contempt in his eyes.
"As the new master of Shijue Palace."
Zhong Wen paused for a moment, then continued, "This junior represents the Tongling Sea and hopes to form an alliance with Zi Zaitian."
"What!"
As soon as these words came out, without waiting for Tianpeng to reply, Black and White exclaimed in surprise, and the expression on his face was as exaggerated as he could be, "Allying with the Spiritual Sea? Us?"
"Boy, the war between Zizaitian and the Spiritual Sea has been going on for thousands of years."
Tianpeng was not as excited as the red panda, but said slowly, "Do you know how many people of Zi Zi Tian died at the hands of Shi Jue Palace, and how many people from the Psychic Sea were torn apart by our warriors of all races? It is engraved in the bones.
How can it be that the hatred of others is so easily forgotten? Frankly speaking, I have shown great restraint by not taking the opportunity to order an attack on the Psychic Sea, so let’s not talk about the alliance!"
"Senior's words are wrong. This psychic sea is not that psychic sea."
Zhong Wen shook his head and retorted, "You can think of it as the junior has laid down a piece of territory to stand on his own, and the person Zi Zaitian wants to form an alliance with is the junior, not the former Shijue Palace."
"Even if I can use this reason to convince all the tribes."
Tianpeng did not waver, "What good will it do to Zi Zaitian to join forces with a weak psychic sea?"
"There are so many benefits, I can't even mention them all in three days and three nights."
Zhong Wen chuckled and said, "In the past, there was one domain of Zi Zai Tian against the twelve domains of the human race. If we form an alliance with the Psychic Sea, we will have fewer enemies and more friends. This is like adding two more domains.
With the power of the four realms, and the junior has a good relationship with Fairy Zang of Penglai Wonderland, he might be able to win over another realm, which would be equivalent to gaining the power of four realms at once, wouldn’t the situation be greatly improved?”
"Xian Xian?"
Tianpeng was stunned when he heard this, "Is it reliable?"
"Senior, after all, you have been single for hundreds of thousands of years, so you cannot understand what kind of life a man like me, a treasured man who is loved by everyone, lives."
Zhong Wen said seriously, "When Fairy Cong saw that this junior was so outstanding, so handsome, and so helpful in saving her life, she fell in love with her to the core. She cried and wanted to come into the bridal chamber with me. Do you think she is reliable?"
"Fart, who told you that I have been single for hundreds of thousands of years!"
Unexpectedly, when Tianpeng heard this, he became furious and said, "You ignorant brat! I remember when I was young, not to mention the Peng clan, but also the females from other clans saw me. They were all fascinated and rushed to surrender.
A hug?"
Black and white stared blankly at Tianpeng beside him, so shocked that his jaw almost dropped to the ground.
Then, it watched helplessly as Tianpeng and Zhong Wen discussed the topic of who was more masculine for a short while. Their faces turned red, their mouths went dry, and they felt that their views were completely shattered.
Wang, suddenly gained a new understanding.
"Even if Cong Youxian is your woman, so what?"
After a long time, Tianpeng finally ended the topic out of breath, and changed the topic, "After all, she is not the master of Yunding Fairy Palace, and she cannot represent the entire Penglai Fairyland. Do you have any other bargaining chips?"
"Senior, after junior leaves this time, he will control the entire psychic sea as soon as possible."
Zhong Wen smiled slightly and Cheng Zhu said in his chest, "At that time, you and I will join forces to capture the two realm cities. From now on, any human cultivator who wants to enter Zi Zi Tian must pass through the territory of the juniors. From now on, you and I will be closely related to each other. Even if our lips are dead and our teeth are cold, as long as Shi Jue Palace
If it doesn't fall for a day, the fire of war will not be able to burn your territory. Doesn't it mean that you have set up a strong barrier for Zi Zaitian?"
"That's very nice to say."
A hint of emotion flashed in Tianpeng's eyes, but he did not let go, "Why should I believe you? After all, you are also a member of the human race."
"If this junior has malicious intentions, Zi Zaitian is already dead."
Zhong Wen replied unhurriedly, "Besides, Penglai Wonderland is still far away from each other after all. Today's psychic sea lacks the power of Chaos Realm like senior to take charge. I will guard the gate for you, and Senior will help me frighten all major Chaos Realms."
Lord, wouldn’t it be nice if we both benefited from our cooperation and each got what he needed?”
This time, Tianpeng did not answer directly, but fell into a long silence.
"In addition to showing up to support you at critical moments."
After dozens of breaths, it suddenly asked, "What else do you need me to do?"
"This junior hopes to select a few helpers from Zi Zaitian in order to take control of Shijue Palace as soon as possible."
Zhong Wen replied without hesitation, "I hope that my senior will make it happen."
"Except Tianshui and Black and White."
Tianpeng pondered for a moment and said, "As long as the warriors of other races are willing to go with you, you can take your pick."
Obviously, it acquiesced to the alliance.
"Thank you, Senior Tianpeng!"
Zhong Wen's eyes lit up and he bowed respectfully, his expression extremely sincere, "You will never regret your choice today."
"After all, I'm getting older and have become soft-hearted."
Tianpeng waved his wings half-heartedly and said, "In the past, if I were allowed to see Lin Bei...eh?"
Midway through the words, it suddenly raised its head and stared eastward, its eyes shining with surprise.
After a while, Zhong Wen and others finally reacted and turned their heads to look in the direction of its line of sight.
"It's the girl you brought."
Tianpeng's huge body actually stood up, its beak slightly opened, and its expression was serious, "She has actually advanced to the next level!"
Xiaowan succeeded!
Zhong Wen, who also felt this majestic aura, was ecstatic and waved his fist excitedly.
"Be it her or that little girl."
After checking again with his spiritual sense, Tianpeng confirmed that Shen Xiaowan had really broken through to the soul state. Tianpeng glanced at Nangong Ling, with an indescribably complicated expression, "Are all the humans around you such evildoers?"
However, as soon as he finished speaking, another powerful aura surged up from not far away, sweeping across all directions.
"It's the soul state again!"
Tianpeng's eyes were rounded as he blurted out, and the look of shock on his face could no longer be described in words.
