Yuwen Leopard, also a monk from the Diamond Gate, turned cold at hearing Pei Xuanjing’s words.

No matter how he listened, he felt ridiculed in the other’s words, and he, who was used to compliment, found it somewhat intolerable.

However, a burly man next to him placed his hand on his shoulder, stopping his intention of making a move.

The burly man stepped forward, clasped his fists and said, “Pleased to meet you, Brother Pei. I’ve long heard of your renown. However, it seems to me you prefer to rely on sharp words.”

Pei Xuanjing glanced at the restrained Yuwen Leopard. He originally thought that Yuwen Leopard was the leader among the two, but it turned out to be the other.

“May I ask who you are?” he measured up the burly man.

Considering that he could cooperate with Yuwen Leopard and had taken the initiative, if it were not unexpected, he was likely to be one of the persons on the list given by Gu Ji.

When he noticed the man’s hands, he immediately understood the identity of this burly man.

At the same time, the burly man announced his name, “I am the Tie Mad.”

It’S mm!

The most famous of the younger generation of the Northwest Dao’s Tie Sect, Tie Qianshan’s personal disciple, Tie Mad.

His original name was rarely known now, and everyone referred to him as Tie Mad.

The fact that he could be called Mad suggested his character.

Legend has it that his name was inspired by a maverick martial artist known as the ‘first oddity in the martial arts realm’ a thousand years ago.

However, as Tie Qianshan’s personal disciple, he was arrogant and made quite a name for himself in the Northwest Dao, which shows how formidable he is.

Now 25, he has achieved the Fifth Rank in martial arts. Bai Xiaosheng, a well-known contemporary martial artist, once commented that as long as he does not die young, he has a good chance of advancing to the Third Rank.

“Brother Tie, your reputation precedes you. But it seems to me that today’s meeting was slightly overstated!” Pei Xuanjing remained indifferent, but his words were rather blunt.

Tie Mad came at Yuwen Leopard’s invitation. It was clear that he meant ill and was likely looking for trouble with him.

Moreover, he never forgot that he had killed the father of a genius disciple from the Tie Sect. The two sides were in a state of hostility and unlikely to become friends.

When he arrived in Anping Prefecture, he had also inquired about the genius who had joined the Tie Sect from the Zhang family. He heard that the talent of the man was very good, even Tie Qianshan intended to take him as a disciple.

However, he didn’t expect to run into the Tie Sect again.

“Pei Xuanjing, you are being overly arrogant!” Tie Mad’s face darkened.

He didn’t expect this guy to be so spiteful in his speech, showing no modesty characteristic of a young man who had just started his career.

Are these young people all so unruly these days?

Looking at Pei Xuanjing, Tie Mad thought of his ‘junior brother’ who his master had recently intended to take under his wing.

That guy was also a top talent, but he was equally harsh in his speech, showing little respect to his senior brothers due to his master’s favor. If it weren’t for his master’s intervention, he would have taught him a good lesson.

To tell the truth, Tie Mad did not know of the deep connection between that genius junior brother and Pei Xuanjing The father of that genius junior brother, Zhang Zhiyi, was killed by Pei Xuanjing himself.

“Hehe.”

Pei Xuanjing chuckled, saying nothing.

This time, it was Yuwen Leopard from the Diamond Gate who calmed down; he pulled at Tie Mad, “Brother Tie, he is just trying to provoke you into making a move.”

He could see that Pei Xuanjing was doing this on purpose, trying to provoke them into making a move. Although he didn’t know why, Yuwen Leopard instinctively felt that he should do the opposite of whatever Pei Xuanjing wanted to do.

Seeing the two calm down, Pei Xuanjing shook his head, somewhat disappointed.

Yes, he was just trying to provoke the two to make a move, then take advantage of the situation to kill them, or at least disable them.

According to Li Yuzhen who said ‘miraculous things are poisonous’, the reason they entered here was not to seize the miraculous thing. He didn’t know about Yuwen Leopard yet, but since Tie Mad was so arrogant, he was probably not here to seize the miraculous thing.

In that case, it’s very likely that these two are here to prevent him from seizing the miraculous thing.

Although Pei Xuanjing, who possesses the power of a fourth-grade martial artist and holds the Thousand-Refined Divine Weapon – the Flowing Flame Sword, just thinking about two fairly strong fifth-grade martial artists not intending to seize the miraculous thing but focusing on making trouble for him instead,

this made him feel like sitting on a bed of nails, having a thorn in his side, having a fishbone stuck in his throat.

That’s why he wanted to take advantage of the time before the miraculous thing appeared, and eliminate the two nuisances. After all, at this time, anyone who aspires to the miraculous thing would not be stupid enough to come and provoke him.

But unfortunately, these two seemed to have sensed something, they were not provoked by him, and held back their anger.

Pei Xuanjing pointed blatantly at the two and said to Gu San beside him, “When we make a move later, you two must be careful.”

The greatest strength of this team was only at the Sixth Rank, and they were no match for these two.

Not that Pei Xuanjing fancied himself a saint, but he felt that cultivation was not easy, and these people had no need to risk their lives here.

Perhaps he empathizes with them!

Pei Xuanjing knew, if he hadn’t had the help of the Life Simulator, he might be just like those ordinary martial artists around him, and certainly wouldn’t be standing in the center with such glamour.

“Yes,” Gu San nodded.

He was aware of the gap between him and these geniuses. Although they had also broken through to the Sixth Rank before the age of twenty-five, it was not without the countless resources poured into them by the Prefecture Master.

“You just need to take care of yourselves. Leave the rest to me.” Seeing Gu San not impulsively charging forward, Pei Xuanjing nodded in approval.

Actually, if it wasn’t for Gu Ji’s request, Pei Xuanjing might even want to come here alone. He didn’t need these people’s help at all.

It was not arrogance but confidence.

With his strength, if he could seize the miraculous thing, he would certainly do so. If there were enemies that he couldn’t deal with, these people couldn’t help much either.

“Even if you are a strong man, you must have respect.”

This was said by Gu Ji.

In Gu Ji’s view, these people were cultivated by him using countless resources. Although they were different from geniuses like Pei Xuanjing, he couldn’t deny them the chance to strive forward. After all, entering the Forbidden Place, the Blessed Land, is both risky and an opportunity.

Hearing this, Pei Xuanjing was silent.

He could understand the hardships of the lower-class martial artists, so he couldn’t reject the offer.

After all, he couldn’t obstruct anyone’s determination and opportunity to forge ahead.

The moon was high in the sky, its silvery light falling from the sky as if a silver shawl was draped over the surface of the lake.

The calm surface of the lake began to ripple slowly.

“The miraculous thing is about to appear!”
