Chapter 5360: That depends on who

After all, not only did he have powerful strength and profound qualifications, more importantly, he had the iron-like backing of the Grand Elder. In this aspect, the other high-level Aurous core stage cultivators could only look up to him.
Bing Wuqing’s suspicion grew even stronger as she watched this scene. She didn’t see Xin Yijie, and he was the one who had the closest relationship with Lin Yi out of all the higher-ups in the green cloud sect on the northern island. Furthermore, they’d interacted before, and now that she’d specifically mentioned that she wanted to visit Lin Yi, Xin Yijie should be the most suitable person to receive her. Why didn’t he even show up?
“Our young friend Bing Wuqing has come from afar. Please forgive us for not going out to welcome you.” Lu Pingan chuckled and cupped his hands in greeting, appearing extremely polite. At least from his point of view, he was already very polite. Even if Bing Wuqing was also a golden core expert, she was still a junior to him. Calling her “little friend” was already an honor.
Little did he know that Bing Wuqing wasn’t even at the Golden core stage at the moment. He wasn’t giving her face at all, but rather, he was trying to make himself look better …
“It’s fine,” Bing Wuqing didn’t really care about this. Face was nothing to her, and she had never considered such things in her mind. She immediately said,””Can I go and meet your grand-uncle Lin Yi now?”
“May I ask if my young friend Bing Wuqing has any special request? Is this your personal intention or your sect’s intention?” Lu Pingan probed.
“I’m a person. ” Bing Wuqing said directly.
Lu Pingan raised his eyebrows and exchanged a look with the other golden core stage higher-ups beside him. They heaved a sigh of relief in their hearts. If Bing Wuqing had come to see Lin Yi on behalf of the snow sword sect, it would have been a big problem for them. After all, it could very likely mean that Lin Yi had a close relationship with the snow sword sect. If they wanted to deal with Lin Yi next, they would have to consider the feelings of the snow sword sect.
It was a good thing that this was Bing Wuqing’s personal matter, so there was nothing to worry about.
“I’m sorry, Lin Yi is in isolated practitioning right now. I’m afraid you’ll have to come here for nothing, please go back. ” Lu Ping ‘an immediately asked him to leave without hesitation.
“Closed-door training?” Bing Wuqing’s brows furrowed even more upon hearing this. If she hadn’t noticed the abnormality just now, she might have believed it. But now, her intuition told her that there was definitely something wrong.
As an expert, especially a super genius like Bing Wuqing, her intuition had always been extremely sharp.
“That’s right. Grandmaster Lin Yi has been cultivating in seclusion at the ascending heaven cliff since he arrived here. No one dares to disturb him. So, if our young friend Bing Wuqing wants to visit him, I’m afraid you’ll have to wait for the next opportunity.” As he spoke, Lu Pingan’s face was apologetic, and he looked rather sincere.
Unfortunately, Bing Wuqing obviously wouldn’t give up so easily. She glanced at Lu Pingan and said,””Take me to the ascending heaven cliff.”
“Ha?” Lu Ping ‘an was stunned for a moment. The other party’s tone really made him scratch his head. Rather than a request, it sounded more like a condescending order. Was there something wrong with this guy’s brain?
It was understandable for a talented genius like Bing Wuqing to be a little arrogant, but the problem was that this was not the snow sword sect, but the green cloud School of the northern island. He had come all the way here to cause trouble at the green cloud School of the northern island. Had he not thought of the consequences of doing so?
Moreover, even if Bing Wuqing’s attitude had been better and she had obediently made a request, Lu Pingan would definitely not have agreed, because this request was already out of line.
Although the ascending cliff was mostly used to imprison special people, it was a place of extraordinary significance to the green cloud School of the northern island. Other than the higher-ups of the Golden core stage, even the disciples of the school were not allowed to approach it, let alone open it to an outsider like Bing Wuqing.
Moreover, Lin Yi was imprisoned in the ascending heaven cliff, and this was the end of the stalemate. How could Lu Pingan let an outsider like Bing Wuqing go see him without knowing her intentions?
“I’m sorry, the ascending heaven cliff is a forbidden area of the green cloud School in the North Island. Even our disciples are not allowed to approach it. Your request is a little too much.” If it wasn’t for his identity, Lu Pingan would have chased him out without hesitation. However, he was, after all, the once unparalleled genius of the Nakajima snow sword sect. If he embarrassed him too much, it would be equivalent to humiliating the entire snow sword sect to a certain extent. Unless it was absolutely necessary, he did not want to get into unnecessary trouble.
“The ascending heaven cliff is a forbidden area?” Bing Wuqing raised her eyebrows. The more the other party tried to deny it, the more suspicious he became. However, before he had a clear understanding of the situation, he couldn’t possibly turn hostile. He glanced at Lu Pingan and said,””You mean you can’t make the decision?”
The corner of Lu Pingan’s eyes twitched, and an unknown fire instantly rose in his heart. What kind of contemptuous look was this? he was too condescending!
“Not bad.” Lu Ping ‘an still did not fall out with him. He suppressed his anger and said,””Only the Deputy sect leader and above have the right to decide whether to let people in or out of the forbidden area of the ascending heaven cliff. But it just so happens that the sect leader and the Deputy sect leader of my sect are not here, so it can’t be done for the time being.”
Lu Ping ‘an was already considered to be very well-mannered to be able to speak up to this point. If it were anyone else, even if they wouldn’t turn hostile in front of him, they would definitely leave with a flick of their sleeves. You, Bing Wuqing, are just a newly promoted junior. Why are you here acting like a big Shot?
“What about the Grand Elder? Your Grand Elder should have the authority to do so, right? take me to him. ” Bing Wuqing said.
“What?” When Lu Pingan and the others heard this, they were collectively dumbfounded. They looked at each other for a moment before saying,””You want to see our Grand Elder?”
“Yes, you can’t be thinking of telling me that your Grand Elder isn’t here either, right?” Bing Wuqing asked casually.
“The Grand Elder is here, and he does have the power to do so. However, he’s the stabilizing force of our North island’s Green cloud School. How can an outsider like you see him so easily? Don’t tell me that if someone randomly comes and asks to see your snow sword sect’s Grand Elder, your Grand Elder will agree to let him see him?” Lu Pingan’s face was filled with mockery. The other golden core stage higher-ups also had contemptuous looks on their faces.
Had this guy’s brain been squeezed between doors before? He opened his mouth and wanted to see the Grand Elder. Did he really think that the green cloud School in the North Island was opened by his family?
“That depends on who they are.” Bing Wuqing wasn’t angry at all. An extremely rational and pragmatic person like him rarely got angry at others, so what was the use of getting angry?
Moreover, they were on a different level now, so he would not get angry easily.
“Well said. If you want to see the Grand Elder of any sect, you have to first weigh your own weight, so as not to be laughed at. I believe that Sir is also very clear on this principle.” Lu Pingan paused for a moment, then made a gesture to see her out.
