Zhou Tian squatted on the ground, looked at Xu Qingnian's chin, and asked curiously: "What is the blindfold?"
Xu Qingnian turned around and faced the front of the restaurant. His body was gradually surrounded by blue gas, which surprised Zhou Tian. He had never seen Lao Xu take action before.
Then Xu Qingnian waved his right sleeve and saw that the restaurant in front of him took on a new look and became its original appearance.
"Shi Chun Tower?"
Zhou Tian was overjoyed when he saw those big characters again. He pointed at the plaque and shouted to Lao Xu.
Xu Qingnian exhaled and said silently to himself: "This blind trick should have been set up by Qi Zun..."
Without saying a word, Zhou Tian just grabbed Xu Qingnian's arm and rushed in. But just as he was about to lift the door curtain and go in, a bright dagger flew out instantly, and a shrill cold light flashed in front of his eyes and brushed his eyelashes. Fortunately,
Zhou Tian reacted quickly and dodged in time, otherwise the blow would have been more disastrous.
"Master, are you okay?"
Xu Qingnian looked nervous and quickly looked at Zhou Tian's whole body, fearing that he would be hurt.
Seeing nothing, he turned back and looked sharply at the short knife, only to see it nailed directly to the tree opposite, and then gradually turned into a folding fan.
Zhou Tian was not frightened, but ran to the other side and took a closer look.
"Is this the folding fan of the man in white?"
After that, I wanted to pull it out, but I didn't expect that the fan bone of this folding fan was nailed into the tree for three-thirds of its length.
Xu Qingnian also took a look and couldn't help but sigh: "Huh, it turns out it's him. He is the only one with such power in Xiyun Palace."
Zhou Tian looked at Lao Xu inexplicably, wanting to ask who this person he was talking about was.
"Haha, I haven't seen you for a long time. Xu Qingnian, who used his Qi King to kill Qi Huang, didn't expect that he would now be this boy's housekeeper, calling him a young master every time. It's really chilling!"
The person who spoke turned out to be the man in white just now. After Zhou Tian heard this, he couldn't help but turn his face and look at it in surprise.
"Old Xu, are you really that good? But apart from the fact that you are very good at eating cakes lately, I really haven't noticed anything else."
Xu Qingnian laughed and pulled out the folding fan and threw it casually. He saw that the folding fan was spinning extremely fast. At this speed, even a Qi cultivator with the blessing of Qi Hai would be scratched if he didn't pay attention.
The man in white took a step back, put his palms in front of him, and drew a circle. A Bagua-shaped pattern appeared on his chest. Then he released the folding fan, then held it in his hand and smiled.
Zhou Tian was shocked by this operation. He didn't expect that this man could resist Lao Xu's easy throw with such a large formation.
He stared straight at Lao Xu beside him, his eyes exuding surprise and admiration.
"Old Xu, I didn't expect that..."
Xu Qingnian blinked and said to Zhou Tian: "Master, this person is Wan Lei, the leader of the four great protectors under the command of the Lord of Xiyun Palace. Perhaps you have also seen his realm, the four realms of Qi Zun."
After hearing this, Zhou Tian gloated and smiled: "Tsk, you are so talented and powerful, Lao Xu, you are the King of Qi, no wonder he is not your opponent, and this name is really corny..."
Although Wan Lei's name is very crude, his appearance is indeed the best among all the men in Xiyun Palace. He doesn't care at all when faced with Zhou Tian's ridicule, because his name has been teased since he was a child, and now he is relieved.
"Master, no."
"Wan Lei is a person who has been generous with his wealth all year round. He also supports Qi cultivators in every possible way. He even hates Haotian Pavilion to the core. If you ridicule him like this, you will probably ruin the reputation of the Zhou family."
Hearing what Xu Qingnian said, Zhou Tian also realized that he was indeed speaking out of words just now, so he bowed and saluted Wan Lei and said, "Please forgive me, Mr. Wan. I just said something imprudent, please punish me, senior."
Wan Lei smiled, stepped forward to help Zhou Tian up, and took a closer look.
"From the conversation I just had with you in Shichun Tower, I know that you are a virtuous person, but also a person who hates evil as much as he hates evil. When it comes to punishment, I don't dare to bear it."
"Being young and energetic is a good thing, and there is nothing to forgive..."
After saying that, Wan Lei turned sideways and made an invitation gesture to them.
"Would you like to come in and sit for a while?"
When Zhou Tian heard this, he quickly grabbed Xu Qingnian's arm and whispered: "Old Xu, just entering here costs thirty taels of silver. Do you really want to enter?"
When Xu Qingnian heard this, he touched his arms, shook his head and said softly: "Master, we didn't bring much silver when we came out of Beimo. These thirty taels..."
Wan Lei looked at the two of them looking at each other, and couldn't help laughing: "Haha, I run this Shichun Building, am I still asking for your money?"
After Xu Qingnian heard this, he whispered to Zhou Tian not knowing what he was talking about.
"Old Xu, you said this place is used by Xiyun Palace to collect news from the four continents?"
Then they followed Wan Lei in.
After entering, the tangy fragrance was still so strong. Zhou Tian looked around and found that it was indeed no different from what he had just seen.
But Xu Qingnian beside him didn't react at all and followed Wan Lei directly.
Zhou Tian watched the singing and dancing in the lobby. It was very lively. Even though he couldn't understand what was being sung or danced, the many graceful and graceful girls in front of him really made him unable to walk.
"Master!"
Xu Qingnian looked back and saw Zhou Tian still standing stupidly in front of the lobby by the door, so he shouted.
"Master!"
At this time, a woman came to him and whispered softly in his ear. The aroma of her breath instantly made him feel relaxed and happy.
Slowly turning his head and glancing slightly, his pupils suddenly became much larger.
"Xia Shuning?"
Still wearing the same clothes, still so charming, but this time the distance is closer.
The red lips were right in front of the tip of his nose. Zhou Tian's heart was beating fast, his cheeks turned red instantly, and he gradually took half a step back.
"Sir, they are calling you..."
Xia Shuning looked at Xu Qingnian and the others and raised her chin.
Zhou Tian turned his head to look, turned around suddenly and ran towards Lao Xu. Wan Lei took them to the private room on the second floor.
Because in Shichun Building, the stairs are all on the outside, so that guests who come on weekdays can clearly see the singing and dancing in the center of the lobby.
Zhou Tian stood at the railing on the second floor and looked down for a long time, but he couldn't see Xia Shuning.
"Master!"
Xu Qingnian tugged on Zhou Tian's sleeve: "Master, this place is more or less a place of romance. Don't stay for a long time. Come over quickly..."
Zhou Tian reluctantly left the railing, and at this moment, his mind was filled with the shadow of Xia Shuning.
"Ah, Brother Wan, please forgive me, it is the first time for my young master to come to a place like a brothel, so he may be a little curious, so he took a few more looks."
Xu Qingnian pressed Zhou Tian to his side and kept shaking his sleeves to bring him back to his senses.
"Haha, it doesn't matter. I haven't seen so many enchanting women at such a young age. It's normal to look at them more. They have food and sex, right? Haha."
Wan Lei's words made Xu Qingnian unable to continue. His eyes never left the girl in the building when he looked at Zhou Tian.
"Master, Master? Uh-huh!" Xu Qingnian coughed loudly, and then Zhou Tian woke up. He glanced back and realized that Xu Qingnian and the others had been waiting for him for a long time.
Suddenly feeling a little embarrassed, he quickly picked up the wine on the table and filled Wan Lei's quilt.
"Senior Wan, please!"
Looking at it, the so-called private room is nothing more than the closest compartment to the railing on each floor. Firstly, you can watch the singing and dancing downstairs at any time, and secondly, you can call the servants in the building at any time.
Wan Lei saw that Zhou Tian had calmed down, and he was very impressed: Although this guy couldn't control the beautiful girls when he came in, he calmed down quite quickly.
Immediately, he picked up the wine glass and drank it in one gulp.
"Old Xu, I brought your young master here this time to pick up that thing, right?"
Wan Lei is usually a resolute person and doesn't want to make anything complicated, so he talks to Xu Qingnian straight to the point.
When Zhou Tian heard what Wan Lei said, he suddenly remembered that he went to the city to pick up something, so he asked Xu Qingnian without any concealment.
"Old Xu, you told me about this item before I climbed the tower, but in the end you couldn't tell me what this item is?"
"You can finally talk about it now, right?"
Zhou Tian looked helplessly at Lao Xu in front of him.
"Young Master, this matter is of great importance. We can only tell it to the city lord of Xiyun Palace. I'm sorry that I can't say it yet."
When Wan Lei saw them like this, he couldn't help laughing.
"There are so many rules in the academy, why do you still like to stay in the academy so much?"
Zhou Tian looked at the busy figures downstairs and couldn't help but sigh: "Humph, it's not all about breaking through the sea of qi..."
His casual words aroused Wan Lei's interest.
He looked at Xu Qingnian sitting next to him and winked.
"You have no Qi Hai. I have known for a long time. I originally thought you had some reason to hide your strength, but I never thought that there really is no Qi Hai in your body."
"When I go to the academy this time, I must be asking the old master to take action, right?"
As Wan Lei spoke, he looked at Xu Qingnian with beaming eyes.
"Indeed, if this were not the case, why would I..."
Halfway through his words, Zhou Tian thought of all the previous encounters, as well as Beimo's father and Youyou. He suddenly felt sad and frowned.
Wan Lei saw that he was hesitant to speak, and the corner of his mouth was slightly crooked: "Actually, breaking through the Qi Sea is not necessarily the only way to go to the academy. I can do it too, and the city lord of Xiyun Palace can even do it."
"Would you like to join us? This Xiyun Palace is also very important to the Master."
Wan Lei's words are indeed very tempting, but for Zhou Tian, going to the academy is not just to break through the Qi Sea, but more so that he can gradually become stronger in the future.
"Forget it, I don't want to go in the opposite direction halfway. I have agreed to go to the academy and I must fulfill my promise. Thank you Senior Wan for your consideration."
Xu Qingnian didn't say a word. When Wan Lei winked at him, he understood that doing so was testing whether his willpower was strong enough to break through the powerful temptation of Qi Hai. However, he was still impartial, which really made him feel unbiased.
Xu Qingnian looked at him with admiration, and Wan Lei was also impressed.
"Well said. At such a young age, with such a strong willpower and so much emphasis on one's own commitments, he is considered quite good among the younger generation."
After that, Wan Lei drank the remaining wine in the flask again and laughed loudly: "Haha, in that case, please come with me, the Lord of Xiyun Palace has long wanted to see you...
"
Zhou Tianyi was startled: "City Lord? Isn't she not here..."
