Since they didn't know whether the other party was a friend or an enemy, Leng Shaoting and Gu Ning immediately put on makeup to look like Qingfeng and Qinghe in order to avoid confronting each other.
Lao Zhang left after cooking, so now Shitou was the only outsider. But under the current situation, Leng Shaoting would of course send him away and give him a temporary holiday.
Jing Yunyao and Miao Jingjing went back to their rooms directly. If the cultivator really came in, it would be fine if they didn't come out.
Although the old man didn't have any ill intentions towards the people in the courtyard, he was very curious about who lived there, so he decided to pay a visit.
Although it was a bit abrupt, he would not be reconciled without knowing who the person inside was. If it happened to be someone he knew, there would be nothing abrupt about it.
So, the old man walked towards the courtyard door and knocked on the door.
It was Gu Ning who opened the door. At this time, Gu Ning had already revealed his cultivation and became Qing He.
As soon as the door opened, the old man spoke first, with a very polite attitude: "Little girl, excuse me. I was passing by here and saw the formations set up in the courtyard. I learned that he was a member of the same group, so I wanted to pay a visit to this high-ranking man." I wonder if Gu Ning can make a recommendation?"
The old man did not hide his purpose of coming, because only by explaining his purpose can he show his sincerity, and if he did not explain his purpose, there would be no other reason!
And no one is a fool. If you panic, you will be seen immediately.
"Since we are members of the same profession, we are guests when we come to our door. Come in, senior!" Gu Ning invited. Since he had changed his clothes, he had no intention of avoiding it.
Moreover, after looking at the old man's face up close, he seemed to be kind and had a good attitude. Of course, Gu Ning had no reason to be rude.
"Thank you," the old man thanked him, and then followed Gu Ning in.
However, after entering the courtyard, the old man was surprised, because the courtyard was full of spiritual energy, which made the old man think more highly of the cultivation of the person who set up the formation.
"I wonder what I call the little girl?" the old man asked, his attitude was still polite, and he did not look down on Gu Ning just because he was a junior.
"My name is Qinghe," Gu Ning said.
"Qinghe?" The old man was slightly surprised when he heard this and asked, "Could it be that you are the apprentice of Elder Shangguan?"
The old man knew about the martial arts competition and was extremely surprised that Shangguan Yang was still alive.
If the master living here is Shangguan Yang, then it would not be a surprise to be able to set up such a powerful spirit gathering array.
"Exactly" Gu Ning responded. Gu Ning was not surprised at all that the other party knew about Shangguan Yang and them.
After receiving Gu Ning's answer, the old man became a little excited: "So Elder Shangguan lives here! I was curious about who the master is, so I came to visit! Since it is Elder Shangguan, it is even more necessary to visit."
"It turns out that senior also knows the master! Then what do you call senior?" Gu Ning asked.
"I am Yu Jianghong, the great elder of Tiandao Sect," Yu Jianghong introduced himself.
"It turns out to be the Great Elder. I'm sorry. Last time I went to the world of cultivation, I heard that the Great Elder was in retreat!" Gu Ning was a little surprised when she heard that he was the Great Elder of the Tiandao Sect. She could see that the other person's cultivation level was very high. She just didn't know how high it was. Therefore, I also felt that the identity of the other party was not simple, but I just didn't guess that the other party was an elder of Tiandao Sect.
"Yes, I was in retreat last time and I just came out a few days ago." Yu Jianghong said.
With that said, Gu Ning brought Yu Jianghong to the hall.
In the hall, there were only Shangguan Yang and Leng Shaoting.
"Master, bring the guests here," Gu Ning said.
Yu Jianghong had never seen Shangguan Yang in person, but he had seen Shangguan Yang's photo, so he was sure that the person in front of him was Shangguan Yang.
"The Great Elder of Tiandao Sect, Yu Jianghong, has met Elder Shangguan." Yu Jianghong bowed to Shangguan Yang. Although they were peers, their cultivation levels were at different levels, so it was polite for Yu Jianghong to lower his posture in front of Shangguan Yang.
Because in the world of cultivation, the strong are respected, even if you are older than him, but your cultivation level is as low as his, you still have to respect him.
Shangguan Yang is not someone who likes to put on airs, especially those who are friendly to him, so he stood up and responded to Yu Jianghong in a polite manner: "It turns out to be the great elder of Tiandao Sect! Please sit down."
Then, Yu Jianghong sat down with Shangguan Yang, and Gu Ning immediately went to pour tea for Yu Jianghong.
"This visit is really abrupt, so please don't take offense to the elder Shangguan." Yu Jianghong apologized. Although no matter how abrupt the visit was, people would have already come in, but if he didn't apologize, it would appear that he was rude.
"It's nothing abrupt. I should have seen him a long time ago. It's just that I didn't see him the last time I went to the world of cultivation." Shangguan Yang said nonchalantly.
"Because I have been in seclusion, I missed the martial arts competition. After I came out of seclusion, I heard about Elder Shangguan. I felt very regretful that I didn't see you. But this time, I was lucky enough to meet you just after I came out of the world of cultivation. ." Yu Jianghong said, this is true, not to mention Shangguan Yang's high status and high cultivation level, he naturally wanted to meet him.
"But Elder Shangguan's two apprentices are really amazing. They won one or two places with so many magic crystals."
Saying that, Yu Jianghong praised, this was not polite, but sincere. Leng Shaoting and Gu Ning had become famous in the world of cultivation, and became the envy and admiration of many people. Of course, they also became inseparable friends. Few people are the object of envy anymore.
"Hahahaha! They are indeed very talented and very explosive. Otherwise, my old man wouldn't like them." Shangguan Yang was naturally happy when he heard Yu Jianghong praise his apprentice like this.
"Hahahaha! What Elder Shangguan said is that Elder Shangguan's two apprentices are still young and will definitely become even more outstanding in the future." Yu Jianghong said, having no doubt that Leng Shaoting and Gu Ning will become great talents in the future. After all, they He is really talented, and he also has a master with such a high level of cultivation as Shangguan Yang.
Yu Jianghong and Shangguan Yang chatted quite harmoniously. Yu Jianghong couldn't stay too long, so he left after half an hour.
Before leaving, Yu Jianghong looked at Leng Shaoting and said, "I have a disciple who is about the same age as Qingfeng. His cultivation level is slightly lower, but he is also in the Golden Core stage. If there is a chance, you can learn from each other."
"Okay" Leng Shaoting responded, there would be nothing wrong with having a discussion.
But they all knew that Yu Jianghong's apprentice was Baili Zongyang, and Yu Jianghong didn't know that Baili Zongyang knew them, whether it was his current identity or his original identity.
