Chapter: 4600
After Yaomei's brother thanked Chen Ping profusely, he followed Baicheng and left. His steps were a little hasty, and his heart was full of desire for freedom and gratitude to Chen Ping.
Captain Zhou was very surprised when he saw that the person Baicheng brought out was not Chen Ping. He thought that Baicheng had asked for an amnesty order and would definitely release Chen Ping, but he didn't expect that it was not Chen Ping.
There was a hint of doubt in his eyes, and he was secretly guessing about the relationship between Baicheng and Chen Ping.
After Baicheng released Yaomei's brother, he still led people to guard under the ancient tree.
Although he was a little worried about whether he could successfully take Chen Ping to the general's mansion at night, he still performed his duties conscientiously.
When it was time to relax, Chen Ping walked to the ancient tree again. After yesterday's test, Chen Ping directly penetrated his consciousness into the ancient tree without hesitation this time.
Immediately afterwards, his soul instantly appeared in chaos, surrounded by thick spiritual power.
These spiritual powers were like substantial mist, exuding soft light. When Chen Ping was in it, he seemed to have entered a mysterious fairyland.
Chen Ping knew that this was a rare opportunity for improvement. Although half an hour was not long, he desperately absorbed the spiritual power around him, and his cultivation level was also improving rapidly.
He closed his eyes tightly and devoted himself wholeheartedly to the process of absorbing spiritual power, and the aura on his body continued to increase.
After all, these spiritual powers are in the bodies of other monks. It is much faster than simply absorbing the spiritual energy and then using magic skills to convert it into spiritual power.
Just as Chen Ping was frantically absorbing the surrounding spiritual energy, a white light slowly condensed and finally formed an old man, standing in front of Chen Ping.
Chen Ping seemed to be aware of it, and suddenly opened his eyes, and was immediately startled by the old man in front of him.
His heartbeat suddenly accelerated, there was a trace of panic in his eyes, and he subconsciously took a step back.
"You... who are you, why are you here?" Chen Ping asked in surprise. He had obviously used his spiritual sense to explore, but he didn't find anyone there at all. The sudden appearance of this old man surprised him.
He stared at the old man closely, his heart full of vigilance.
"You still asked me why I appeared here. This sentence should be me asking you, this is my home, why are you coming to my home?"
The old man asked Chen Ping with an unhappy expression.
The old man was wearing a white robe, with gray hair, but his face looked very young, and his eyes revealed a hint of majesty and displeasure.
Chen Ping was stunned and said in disbelief: "Your home? You said this is your home?"
His heart was full of doubts. He never expected that this ancient tree space was actually the home of the old man in front of him.
"Of course, not only here, but the entire Beast City is my home!" The old man's tone revealed a hint of pride and domineering.
He raised his head slightly, with a hint of pride in his eyes, as if he was showing Chen Ping his territory.
When Chen Ping heard this, his head suddenly buzzed, and he said in surprise: "You... are you the city lord of Beast City?"
He knew that the city lord of the Beast City had not appeared for a long time, but he did not expect that he had been hiding in the ancient tree space to practice, and he also used the spiritual power of the many monks here to support his practice.
He couldn't help but feel a little afraid of the city lord's strength and scheming.
"Yes, I am the city lord of Beast City. Who are you? There are only a few people who can enter this ancient tree space.
If you make it clear, I can let you go, but if you dare to lie, then you will stay here forever! "
The words of the city lord of Beast City contained a deep threat, which made Chen Ping feel nervous. He knew that he must answer the city lord's questions carefully.
His brain was working rapidly, thinking about how to explain his arrival to the city lord.
It was obvious that the phantom formations surrounding the Beast City were set up by the city lord in order to isolate the Beast City from the world of heaven and humans!
It has been thousands of years now. If an outsider entered the Beast City, how would the city lord react?
Another point is that if Chen Ping tells the truth, it will be the crime of destroying the nine tribes for Liu Zhongnan and the other three!
After much thought, Chen Ping decided not to tell the truth. If the city lord found out on his own, he would not be able to blame himself!
"Senior, my name is Chen Ping, and I am a casual cultivator. I don't know why I can enter this ancient tree space."
"I only know that the spiritual power in my body is being absorbed by this ancient tree, so I want to see what's going on." JrNovels.com
