Chapter 6103
Early the next morning, Chen Ping was awakened by a knock on the door.
“Young Master Chen, it’s time to go.” Chen Wanqing’s cold voice came from outside the
door.
Chen Ping got up and opened the door, only to see Chen Wanqing dressed in white and standing tall at the door.
The morning light shone on her, plating her with a faint golden glow, like a fairy in a painting.
“Miss Chen is early.”
Chen Ping yawned, “Are you going to Longtan so early?”
“The entrance to Longtan is only open from morning to hour every day, and if you miss it, you will have to wait for tomorrow.”
Chen Wanqing explained, “My father and the elders are already waiting outside the gate, Young Master Chen, please come with me.”
Chen Ping nodded and followed Chen Wanqing outside the palace.
Along the way, the Chen Mansion was heavily guarded, and patrolling guards could be seen everywhere.
Chen Ping noticed that these guards looked at him with quite complicated eyes, curious, vigilant, and a hint of awe. Outside the
gate of the mansion, eight beast carts were ready to go.
Chen Tiangang stood with his hands on his back, and behind him stood six elders, all of whom were people with a strong aura.
Further on, there were thirty elite guards of the Chen Mansion, all of whom had cultivated above the seventh rank of the Immortal Realm.
Seeing Chen Ping come out, Chen Tiangang looked him up and down, and nodded slightly: “Young Master Chen, how did you rest last night?”
“Thank you for your concern, it’s not bad.”
Chen Ping smiled, “The bed in the Chen Mansion is much more comfortable than the stone cave where I slept in the wild.”
When Chen Tiangang heard this, the corners of his mouth rose slightly.
This young man is a little interesting.
“In that case, let’s go.”
Chen Tiangang waved his hand and took the lead in boarding the first beast cart.
Chen Ping was about to follow, but Chen Wanqing stopped him.
“Young Master Chen, please take the third car with me.”
Chen Ping raised his eyebrows and followed Chen Wanqing into the third beast car.
The interior of the car is spacious, covered with soft animal skins, and refreshments are placed on the table.
Chen Wanqing sat down opposite Chen Ping, but did not speak, just looked at him quietly.
Chen Ping was a little hairy by her: “Miss Chen, do I have flowers on my face?”
Chen Wanqing shook her head, suddenly took out a delicate jade box from her sleeve, opened the lid of the box, and there was a silver collar lying quietly inside. The
collar was silver-white, with dense runes engraved on it, and there was a faint light flowing.
Chen Ping’s eyes froze.
This rune…… It is a prohibition rune.
Chen Wanqing handed the jade box to Chen Pingping, looking calm: “Young Master Chen, before entering Longtan, please wear this.”
Chen Ping didn’t answer, just looked at her lightly: “What is this?”
“A self-defense thing.”
Chen Wanqing’s tone was calm, “In Longtan, there are many prohibitions, and the slightest carelessness will trigger the killing formation. This circle has the talisman left by my Chen family’s ancestors, which can protect you in critical moments.”
Chen Ping smiled.
Self-defense? Although
he is not a formation master, he has seen a lot of prohibitions anyway. The runes on
this circle are clearly a combination of spirit lock prohibition and tracking prohibition. After
wearing it, not only will the spiritual power be limited, but every move will also be perceived by the caster.
This is self-defense?
This is to prevent him.
Chen Ping looked at Chen Wanqing and smiled: “Miss Chen, are you sure this is a self-defense thing?”
Chen Wanqing’s face remained unchanged: “Young Master Chen doesn’t believe it?”
Chen Ping shook his head: “It’s not that I don’t believe it, it’s too believable.”
He stretched out his hand, picked up the collar from the jade box, and held it in his hand. The
silver collar was cold and piercing, and the runes on it felt the breath of a living person and flickered slightly.
Chen Ping looked at Chen Wanqing’s eyes and said word by word:
“Miss Chen, I put this on, and your Chen family can rest assured to let me enter Longtan, right?”
Chen Wanqing was silent for a moment and nodded slowly: “Young Master Chen is really smart.”
She didn’t deny it, nor did she make excuses, so she admitted it calmly.
A hint of appreciation flashed in Chen Ping’s eyes.
This woman is honest.
“Miss Chen, you don’t have to be like this.”
Chen Ping played with the collar and said lightly, “Since I promised to help you enter Longtan, I will not regret it.” Wearing this thing makes it seem that you and I do not trust each other enough.
Chen Wanqing pursed her lips: “Young Master Chen, I believe you. But I am not the only one in the Chen family.”
She paused and looked directly at Chen Ping: “Three of the six elders have doubts about you. They think that you are wanted by the temple and may turn against the water at any time, and if you find the treasure after entering the Dragon Pool, you are very likely to swallow it alone. This circle is what they insist on you wear.”
Chen Ping raised his eyebrows: “So, you are here to be a lobbyist?”
Chen Wanqing shook her head: “No, I am here to apologize.”
She got up and bowed deeply to Chen Ping: “Young Master Chen, I’m sorry. I know it’s unfair to you, but for the sake of the Chen family and the smooth trip to Longtan, please be wronged. When I come out of Longtan, I will personally take off the collar for you and apologize to you.”
Chen Ping looked at her and was silent for a long time.
After a while, he suddenly smiled.
“Miss Chen, you apologize so much that I can’t even get angry.
He buckled the collar around his neck, and with a “click”, the collar closed.
In an instant, a strange force gushed out of the collar and spread all over the body along the meridians.
Chen Ping felt that his spiritual power was stagnant, as if he was suppressed by something.
At the same time, a vague thought locked on him, and no matter where he went, this thought would follow him like a shadow.
Chen Wanqing watched him put on the collar without hesitation, and a trace of mixed emotions flashed in his eyes.
“Young Master Chen, you …… Aren’t you angry?”
Chen Ping leaned against the wall of the car and said lazily: “Is it useful to be angry? You six elders of the Chen family, a true immortal family head, and thirty guards of the Immortal Realm, if I make a fuss, can I get out of Yunxian City alive?”
He looked at Chen Wanqing, and a playful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth: “Besides, Miss Chen has apologized in person, I’m a big man, I can’t care about a woman, right?”
