They knew that with the Jin Yuan Pills given by Gu Qingxi, it would not take long for Lu Xuan to be promoted to Nascent Soul. And with those Yuan Ling Pills, it would only be a matter of time for him to be promoted to the Soul Transformation.
The position of head of the Lu family will be within his grasp sooner or later, it just depends on whether he can think of a mere Lu family by then.
As for myself, my spiritual roots have been destroyed and my cultivation is completely useless. In a family of demonic cultivators, I am almost no different from a useless person.
How much better it would be if I hadn't believed Xiao Yutang's seduction and followed Gu Qingxi as steadfastly as Lu Xuan...
--------------------------
Cangshan Mountain is like ink, far and vast, with a mountain range hidden among the undulating peaks like a crouching dragon. Clouds and mist surround the mountains on both sides, and the scenery is both beautiful and magnificent.
Unlike other mountains that are steep and narrow, the top of this mountain is extremely flat, like a wide avenue leading deep into the mountains.
This is Moyun Ridge. Gu Qingxi and Long Zaiye followed the shortcut and arrived at Moyun Ridge in just a few days, six days earlier than the start date of the trade fair.
However, there were people who came earlier than them. Looking from a distance, someone had already set up a long table on the flat mountain, and someone else had built a temporary residence behind the long table.
When they came to the end of the trail, they climbed over a hill and walked towards the road leading up the mountain.
A thin, half-century-old man led two young men up the mountain, and was slightly startled when they saw Long Zaiye.
Long Zaiye was talking to Gu Qingxi about the rules of the trade fair, but he didn't notice him.
"Is this Elder Long of the Long family?" the old man couldn't help but ask after walking a few steps behind.
"Who are you?" Long Zaiye stopped and looked at the other person doubtfully.
"Fellow Daoist Long is really you, I am He Jiahe Nanshan, don't you remember me, Daoist Long?" the old man said a little excitedly.
"You are Nanshan! We haven't seen each other for many years, and you are already so old, hahahaha." Long Zaiye looked at him carefully and became excited.
"Yes, it has been hundreds of years since we last got together. I just came out of seclusion a few days ago. I heard that Moyunling held a trade fair, so I brought a few juniors over to see the excitement. Unexpectedly, I met fellow Daoist Long
." He Nanshan stepped forward and held Long Zaiye's hand, and said happily.
It's obvious that the two have known each other for many years and have a good relationship.
"Fellow Daoist Long, is this little girl a descendant of your Long family?" After a few words of greeting, He Lanshan looked at Gu Qingxi and asked, with a very cordial expression.
"Well..." Long Zaiye was a little embarrassed.
Although he was not embarrassed to lower his face and worship Gu Qingxi as his master, he was learning the art of formations from her. He did not have the name of master and disciple but was actually master and disciple. Of course, he was embarrassed to pretend to be an elder of Gu Qingxi's clan.
"Junior has met Senior He, senior just call me Qingxi." Gu Qingxi didn't care.
She is a member of the Benevolent Heart Alliance, and it is not appropriate to attend the trade fair of demon cultivators. Pretending to be a descendant of the Long family can save her trouble.
Besides, the third senior brother is from the Long family, so she is not completely pretending.
"This is the first time we met, so I didn't prepare any gifts. I'll give this jade to you." Hearing that she called herself Qingxi, He Nanshan subconsciously thought her name was Long Qingxi, so he didn't think much about it and took out a jade as a gift.
Gu Qingxi.
"Thank you, Senior He. You're welcome." Gu Qingxi thanked him and took the jade stone graciously.
She could see that the inside of this jade stone was full of runes, and it was a magic weapon that could gather spiritual energy to assist in cultivation.
However, the grade is not high, it is just a high-grade Xuan-grade, not even earth-grade. She can refine a lot of these magical weapons with her eyes closed, so she doesn't care at all.
If she hadn't been worried that refusing would ruin He Nanshan's face, make it difficult for others to step down, and embarrass Long Zaiye, she wouldn't even want to accept it.
Gu Qingxi forgot one thing. She didn't care about this magical weapon, but that didn't mean that others didn't care either.
Seeing He Nanshan giving the jade to Gu Qingxi, the two young men next to him were so jealous that their eyes turned green.
In order to get this spirit-gathering jade, the two of them had been fawning over each other all day long, and their words were almost worn out, but Mr. Xuanzu still refused to let go.
Unexpectedly, Master Xuanzu gave the Ling Jade to her when he saw this little girl for the first time.
Who is the descendant of the He family, and who is your biological child?
"Fellow Daoist Long, these two are my great-great-grandsons, one is named He Dongming and the other is named He Dongyu.
Dongming Dongyu, why don’t you meet Elder Long soon." He Nanshan continued.
"Juniors have met Senior Long." Although He Dongming and He Dongyu were jealous to death, they did not dare to displease Mr. Xuanzu. They could only endure their sullenness and bow to Long Zaiye.
"No need to be too polite. I also have two magic weapons that I have treasured for many years, just for you." Long Zaiye helped the two of them up and took out two defensive magic weapons for them.
Compared with the spirit-gathering jade, these two defensive magic weapons are of a lower grade, not even reaching the Mystical Grade level.
There is no way, the Long family has been in decline for many years and has been very poor. Although he got the Yaoyuan spirit mine as compensation from the Tang family a few days ago, after all, time is still short. His pocket is quite bulging, but he has no time to purchase decent magic weapons.
.
These two defensive magic weapons were given to him by an elder as a token of encouragement after he successfully built the foundation when he was young. They have been kept until now because of their special significance.
But Long Zaiye didn't feel ashamed or anything. It was just a thought. Is there any difference between Xuanpin and Huangpin?
Since Gu Qingxi is here, do you want any magic weapons? When the trade fair is over, you can get the spiritual crystals yourself and ask her to help you refine a few magic weapons to give to the He family's ancestors and grandchildren.
It has to be said that since meeting Gu Qingxi, this old man's vision has broadened and his temperament has become more open-minded.
But unfortunately, not everyone has his vision and his open-mindedness.
One Xuan-grade magic weapon can be exchanged for two yellow-grade magic weapons. They have been treasured for many years. You treat it as old wine. The longer it is, the more valuable it is. He Dongming and He Dongyu took the magic weapon. They didn't say anything on the surface, but they were even more excited in their hearts.
Feeling bored.
I don’t know when Mr. Xuanzu got to know this kind of poor person. The whole family knew how to take advantage and didn’t understand any etiquette. He glanced at Long Zaiye who was not ashamed, and then looked at Gu Qingxi, He Dongming and He Dongyu who were feeling at ease next to him.
His eyes were full of contempt.
As they spoke, everyone continued walking towards Moyun Ridge.
Listening to their animated reminiscing along the way, Gu Qingxi learned that this He Nanshan was the supreme elder of the He family, a family of demon cultivators.
The He family does not have as long a history as the Long family, nor does it have the glory that the Long family once had. It can only be regarded as a middle-class family, but it has not experienced ups and downs, so it has been passed down for many years and is somewhat famous.
As for Long Zaiye and He Nanshan, they had known each other since childhood. Because they had similar temperaments, they had always had a good friendship. However, because the two families were too far apart, the Long family gradually declined, and the two were busy cultivating separately, so their interactions gradually became less frequent.
Not long after, a group of people arrived at Moyun Ridge. Two middle-aged men with stern faces stood in the middle of the road with their hands folded like door gods.
Until a group of people arrived in front of them, neither of them got out of the way, and said with a straight face: "Whose family are they from? Token."
