Whoosh!

A beam of bloody energy shot towards Pei Ling's eyebrows.

The Nine Soul Sword immediately let out a scream and automatically floated up to protect its master.

However, the gap in cultivation between the two sides was too great. Zhou Miaoli, the true disciple of the Holy Sect, was far more powerful than the two alchemy-stage casual cultivators in Pengying Guan, and the speed of the Nine Soul Sword could not keep up with his attacks.

The next moment, when Pei Ling was extremely anxious, thinking that he was about to practice double cultivation with a female corpse in public, a huge force suddenly came from his forehead.

Bang.

Pei Ling's body immediately flew backwards, crashed into a small tree as thick as an arm, and rolled continuously on the ground before he was able to stop.

Although he looked embarrassed, he was not harmed in any way.

Obviously, Zhou Miaoli kept his hand.

At the same time, the system responded as always: "Ding dong! An external attack has been detected, and this practice is over. Thank you to the host for using the intelligent cultivation system, one-click hosting, and worry-free ascension! I look forward to your sharing of practice evaluations. If you are satisfied, please give

Five-star review…”

As soon as he regained control of his body, Pei Ling didn't bother to give him a one-star rating this time. His first reaction was to quickly tie his belt.

Perhaps because he was tricked by the system too many times, Pei Ling's current psychological quality is extremely strong.

He tied up his belt calmly and straightened his robe, looking at the people who surrounded him tightly in front of him, without any trace of shame, anger or uneasiness, he asked extremely calmly: "What's the matter?"

Seeing Pei Ling acting as if nothing happened just now, Zhou Miaoli felt slightly embarrassed.

She calmed down and then said: "Junior Brother Pei, Senior Si Hong loves you so much. When I heard that you were here, I traveled thousands of miles to come and meet you in person."

Without waiting for Pei Ling to answer, Zhou Miaoli continued, "Junior brother Pei, don't worry, the Fuguang Sihong clan's strength and status are not inferior to the Jiu'ali clan."

"You must know that although junior brother is a genius, the Jiu'a Li clan's generation already has Li Lieyue, who has built the foundation of heaven and achieved a first-class elixir."

"Even if the junior brother is loyal to the Li family and has made great contributions, in the end it is just a service for him and can never pass through the Li family's own bloodline!"

"But the Fuguang Sihong family is not like that."

"Now that junior brother has successfully established the foundation of heaven, if he is willing to join the Si Hong clan, Si Hong clan can promise that he will definitely help junior brother ascend to the position of the fourth true successor of the Holy Sect!"

"At that time, you will be on an equal footing with me, and even compete with Su Zhenhe, who is the pillow of the Su family, and you are expected to become the Holy Son of the Holy Sect!"

Hearing this, Pei Ling's eyes changed.

He doesn't know Zhou Miaoli.

But now that the other party claims that he has become the fourth true successor, he is on an equal footing with him, and his identity is self-evident.

Thinking of this, Pei Ling didn't feel the slightest sense of urgency in his heart.

This test of Peng Yingguan was arranged for him by Mr. Li.

Now that he has just got the opportunity, people from the Li family must be nearby and will protect him.

"Senior Sister Zhou." Pei Ling did not answer Zhou Miaoli's words, but asked calmly, "Did you send anyone to deal with me during the last incident in Luquan City?"

Not only is he now a mortal enemy of Su Zhenhe, but Zhou Miaoli also took action against Luquan City before.

Such a Liangzi, even without the favor from the Li family, he would never have chosen the Si Hong family behind the Zhou family!

Hearing this, Si Honghang suddenly frowned and looked at Zhou Miaoli with an unhappy expression.

A prodigy like Pei Ling, who comes from a small family, has no background and is extremely talented, is very welcome to any force!

Especially for the two generations of the Fuguang Sihong clan, there are many descendants, but none of them can successfully build the foundation of heaven. They have to give up the position of true successor to Zhou Miaoli... Then it is even more necessary to absorb a genius with a foreign surname like Pei Ling!

But now, Zhou Miaoli has actually offended the other party in advance?

Could it be that this woman was worried that Pei Ling would threaten her status or dilute her resources after joining the Si Hong clan, so she did this deliberately?

Thinking of this, a hint of sinisterness suddenly appeared in Si Honghang's eyes.

Although Zhou Miaoli has the blood of the Si Hong family, he is closer to the Si Hong family than Pei Ling.

But her surname is not Si Hong after all!

To the Si Hong family, Zhou Miaoli was not purely one of their own after all.

Her method of eliminating dissidents in advance would be harmless if it were done by a direct descendant of the Si Hong family; but Zhou Miaoli cannot!

The Si Hong family gave her various opportunities and magical methods to help her ascend to the position of true successor. She even had the opportunity to compete with the talented legitimate daughters of the Li family for the position of saint. This was to allow her to occupy the position for the Si Hong family, not for convenience.

She harmed Si Hong's interests!

Sensing the change in Si Honghang's attitude, Zhou Miaoli looked calm and explained to Pei Ling slowly: "I did find a few casual cultivators that time to go to Luquan City."

"But my plan at that time was just to scare the Pei family."

"The crisis will be resolved after I visit Pei Mansion in person."

"Everyone in the Pei family can at most give a false alarm. There won't be any accidents."

"It's just that I was blocked by Li Lieyue halfway, and my plan was disrupted. I couldn't arrive in time. I'm really sorry."

After hearing this, Pei Ling immediately understood what Zhou Miaoli meant.

At that time, those casual cultivators of the Borrowing Sword Hall were just cannon fodder sent to death!

He remembered very clearly that the reason why those casual cultivators traveled all the way to Luquan City was to massacre the entire Pei Mansion.

If what Zhou Miaoli said was true, according to her plan, she would wait for these casual cultivators to take action and then show up in person to kill them all and "save" the Pei Mansion from the genocide.

In this way, the entire Pei family will be grateful to Zhou Miaoli.

After he returns to his clan, no matter what conditions Zhou Miaoli proposes, the Pei family will stand by Zhou Miaoli's side...

This trick is not very clever, but it is enough to deal with a small family like Pei Mansion.

After all, a small family in such a remote place is short of resources, and even the most basic bone-hardening pills are not available for everyone in the family.

He desperately hopes to attach himself to a big force.

With Zhou Miaoli's cultivation status and his personal appearance to express his position, who can refuse the other party's "good intentions"?

Thinking of this, Pei Ling did not continue the topic.

Everyone is dead, and there is no way to take revenge now. Knowing the whole story, there is no point...

"I have chosen Senior Sister Li in public and will not join the Si Hong clan again." Pei Ling said straightforwardly.

Hearing this, Si Honghang said nothing.

The current recruitment has to be handled by Zhou Miaoli.

As a Nascent Soul cultivator and a direct descendant of the Si Hong clan, if he was to die in person but was still rejected by Pei Ling, where would he put his face?

What's more important is that no matter how Pei Ling rejects Zhou Miaoli, as long as he hasn't spoken yet, there is still room for everything.

If he personally takes action and is rejected, this mission of recruiting new talents will be a complete failure!

At this moment, Zhou Miaoli also knew what Si Honghang meant, and immediately said: "Junior Brother Pei, don't refuse in a hurry. First, tell me about the conditions that Li Lieyue, or the entire Li family, can give you. What the Li family can give, Si Hong
