Chapter three hundred and seventy-ninth: make a deal
Jiang Yuyan is indeed old!
At this time, she was still half a year away from her 450th birthday, but she already looked like an aging old woman.
Her hair was completely white, and although the skin on her face was still smooth and white, the crow's feet at the corners of her eyes directly destroyed all the beauty, making it known that the person standing in front of her was just an old woman who had not long lived.
"Fellow Taoist Zhou said that we have important matters to discuss. Now that I'm here, you can talk to me if you have anything to say."
Perhaps it was because she was getting older and was under too much psychological pressure as she saw herself getting older day by day. Jiang Yuyan's temper and personality seemed to have changed a lot. After Zhou Yang asked Zhang Yunpeng to send a letter to invite her out, she actually
He didn't even bother to say basic polite words, he just glanced at Zhou Yang and asked about business.
Her attitude was completely beyond Zhou Yang's expectations, so much so that he was stunned.
Fortunately, Zhang Yunpeng reacted quickly and quickly sent a message to him, saying: "Fellow Taoist Zhou, please be more considerate. Senior Sister, she has not been in a very good mood recently, and she has offended many of her words. Zhang here apologizes to Taoist Fellow Daoist on her behalf."
When Zhou Yang heard this, he immediately understood.
He smiled on his face and did not care about this little detail. He nodded immediately and said: "Since Fellow Daoist Jiang is anxious to know, then Zhou won't show off."
After speaking, he immediately revealed his plans one by one.
It was obvious that after Zhang Yunpeng and Jiang Yuyan heard Zhou Yang's plan, their faces showed extreme shock.
Zhang Yunpeng actually paid attention to Zhou Yang's series of actions after returning to Zhou's house.
After all, today's Zhou family is already the largest force in the world of Immortal Cultivation in the Boundless Sand Sea, second only to the Huangshamen. Coupled with Zhou Yang's special status, he cannot help but take it lightly.
However, he never imagined that Zhou Yang's plot would be so big and Zhou Yang's ambition would be so strong.
Rhinoceros Horn Continent, a very large oasis with an area only slightly smaller than the giant oasis where Huang Shamen is located, an oasis with fifth-level spiritual veins and spiritual stone mines, and an oasis with fifth-level monsters sitting there!
As strong as Huang Shamen, after Cao Wenjin's defeat at Rhinoceros Island, he never thought of attacking there again.
Who would have thought that a mere Zhou family, who had just been promoted to the Zifu family less than fifty years ago, would have already begun plotting against the rich land of Xijiaozhou.
"Zhou knows that the two fellow Taoists will not believe it just based on Zhou's words."
"But after seeing this thing, the two fellow Taoists should believe it a little bit!"
Zhou Yang looked at Zhang Yunpeng and his wife who looked at him with shocked expressions, as if they were looking at crazy people. He raised his hand without changing his expression, and something appeared in his hand.
It was an earth-yellow demon elixir about the size of a baby's head, a demon elixir taken from the fifth-level low-grade earth-type demon beast "Genshan Turtle".
Zhang Yunpeng and his wife are both knowledgeable people. As soon as they saw the demon pill exuding strong earth spiritual power in Zhou Yang's hand, they immediately knew that it was a genuine fifth-level demon pill, and there was absolutely nothing fake about it.
"When Brother Zhou took out this object, could it be that he wanted to say that you had hunted a fifth-level monster?"
Zhang Yunpeng and Taoist monk Jiang Yuyan looked at each other, then looked at Zhou Yang with disbelief and asked.
No wonder he was like this, Zhou Yang's words were really too hard to believe.
A fifth-level monster, or a fifth-level turtle monster known for its defense, would actually fall under the hands of a Zifu period monk like Zhou Yang. Who would believe it!
"Although we have achieved this with the help of the treasure given by Senior Qingyang, the master of the demon pill did indeed fall under Zhou. If you don't believe it, you will wait until you send someone to Liuyun Continent to cultivate the immortal world.
Once you inquire about Zhou, you will know whether this is true!"
Zhou Yang nodded slightly, and admitted it directly regardless of whether Zhang Yunpeng and his wife believed it or not.
"this……"
Zhang Yunpeng's expression changed, and he and Jiang Yuyan looked at each other again, and both saw the look of surprise in the other's eyes.
From an emotional point of view, they did not believe that Zhou Yang really killed a fifth-level monster, because it really challenged their common sense and undermined their self-confidence.
But from a rational point of view, both Zhang Yunpeng and his wife knew that since Zhou Yang dared to say such words, it was definitely not without purpose.
Especially Zhou Yang just mentioned the treasure given by the Yuanying Stage Master. If Zhou Yang really has a powerful treasure given by the Yuanying Stage Master, he can use the great magical power mastered by the Yuanying Stage Master to allow a Zifu Stage monk to transcend the rank.
Killing the fifth-level monster doesn't seem to be impossible.
Zhou Yang looked at the silent couple and knew that he needed to add more fire.
I saw his eyes condensed, first he cupped his hands towards Jiang Yuyan and saluted, and then said in a deep voice: "Please forgive Zhou for being rude. My friend Jiang, your life span is not long, why don't you want to serve the sect?"
How about a fight? Zhou doesn’t want you to take the lead, as long as you are there to assist. If you agree to take action, this fifth-level demon pill will be regarded as a gift from Zhou to fellow Taoist for your 450th birthday!
"
Hearing his words, Zhang Yunpeng and Jiang Yuyan changed their expressions almost at the same time.
An angry look flashed across Zhang Yunpeng's face, and he was about to speak out to accuse him of being rude. However, before he could speak, he was stopped by Jiang Yuyan, a fellow Taoist next to him.
"Are you really willing to give us this fifth-level demon elixir?"
Jiang Yuyan's eyes were fixed on Zhou Yang, and a trace of powerful aura that exceeded the limits of the Zifu period monks quietly emanated from her body.
But it was because of excessive emotional fluctuations that he had unconsciously mobilized the power of the "heretic golden elixir".
"Don't you two fellow Taoists still believe in Zhou's character? Have you ever seen Zhou break his promise?"
Zhou Yang's face straightened up, and he admitted it calmly, and then smiled slightly and said: "Of course, the fifth-level demon pill is extremely precious. In addition to wanting to use it in exchange for a shot from Fellow Daoist Jiang, Zhou also wants to borrow some from Guimen's collection.
The inheritance of puppetry!"
When Zhang Yunpeng and Jiang Yuyan heard what he said, they immediately looked at each other and started talking secretly over the phone.
The two of them didn't know what they were talking about. Finally, Jiang Yuyan responded: "If Fellow Daoist Zhou is really as he said and doesn't have to take the lead in dealing with the fifth-level monsters alone, we agree to this deal!"
"Okay, Fellow Daoist Jiang is really happy, then let's make an agreement!"
Zhou Yang's face flashed with joy and he couldn't help but shout loudly.
With Jiang Yuyan's participation, his plan would be at least 70% to 80% successful.
It should be noted that Jiang Yuyan is not the "fake golden elixir" monk Lin Ruihua he met in the wild jungle. Jiang Yuyan has at least three fifth-level magic weapons in her hands. Once she uses her full strength, her combat power will definitely not be better than that of an early golden elixir.
How much difference does a monk have?
After all, even if you are a monk at the Golden Core stage, not everyone can cultivate those extremely powerful Golden Core magical powers.
After persuading Zhang Yunpeng and Jiang Yuyan in this way, Zhou Yang left Huangshamen, preparing to complete the transaction in half a year.
But after Zhou Yang left, Zhang Yunpeng directly called his junior brother Yang Wenxiong to the cave.
"Junior Brother Yang, Zhou Yang came here today and conveyed Xuanyang Immortal Sect Qingyang's promise to our Huangshamen. You should make preparations and set off to the Liuyun Continent Cultivation Realm in half a month to pay homage to Xuanyang Immortal.
Zong bought the first batch of Foundation Building Pills and Ziyun Pills and returned."
"In addition, after you arrive at the Immortal Cultivation World of Liuyun Continent, pay attention to inquire about Zhou Yang and see what great things he has done in the Immortal Cultivation World of Liuyun Continent!"
Yang Wenxiong entered Zhang Yunpeng's cave and saw Zhang Yunpeng looking at him seriously as he explained the reason for calling him here.
When he heard Zhang Yunpeng's words, his face lit up, and he immediately responded: "Junior brother understands, please rest assured, senior brother, we will definitely live up to the expectations of senior brother."
Zhang Yunpeng seemed to be very satisfied with his attitude. He couldn't help but nodded slightly and said: "Well, you are mainly going shopping this time. Remember to go back quickly and don't stay too long. Don't be followed!"
"Junior brother understands, please don't worry, senior brother, I will go back quickly and I will not delay the business."
As if he was giving Zhang Yunpeng a heart-beating assurance, Yang Wenxiong immediately happily left the cave to prepare.
But when Zhang Yunpeng looked at his leaving figure, his eyes suddenly turned gloomy.
"Junior Brother Yang was so happy when he heard that he was going to Liuyun Continent to cultivate immortality. Could it be that he also followed Master's example and settled down there in Liuyun Continent?"
"No, I have to guard against him. Otherwise, if he really leaves and never comes back, and absconds with the money, my Huang Shamen will lose more than just face!"
While muttering to himself like this, Zhang Yunpeng suddenly showed a look of resentment on his face, and he sighed with a look of hatred on his face:
"Master, Master, you really didn't get off to a good start. You see, you took the risk of destroying the sect and exterminating the Rhinoceros Continent. In the end, you not only harmed yourself, others, but also the sect!"
"It's good now. What you didn't do to harm others or yourself, now you have to take advantage of others and pick peaches for others!"
"If you know anything, I don't know what you think!"
For Zhang Yunpeng, life has never been easier since he took over the position of head.
When he initially agreed to Cao Wenjin to take over the position of leader, he not only gave up on his own path, but also caused countless troubles for himself.
First, Luo Yunqing and Guo Shuyun, who came from the same sect, rebelled, and together with a large number of vassal families, they broke away from Huang Shamen's rule independently.
By the time he finally united all forces to quell the rebellion and exterminate the rebellious officials, the boundless sea of sand cultivation world had been turned into a mess.
Moreover, without the Huangshamen who were in charge of the Golden Core Stage monks, even if the rebellion was extinguished, the control over the Immortal World of the Boundless Sand Sea would not be as strong as before.
Although Zhang Yunpeng joined forces with Zongliheng, he used his position as the elder of the Keqing family to win over the three major Zifu families, Zhou family, Chen family, and Nie family, so that these families would stand on the same side as Huang Shamen.
But without the presence of the Jindan monks as a strategic deterrent, his orders as the head of the Huangsha Sect are no longer as effective as they were in the Cao Wenjin era.
Not only are there a few Zifu families that he can't give orders to, but some of the foundation-building families that are far away from Huangshamen Mountain Gate sometimes dare to disobey his orders.
Zhang Yunpeng also saw these situations and hated them in his heart.
He hated those vassal families who didn't know how to promote themselves. He thought that because the emperor was far away, he didn't care about the orders of him, the head of the sect.
But at the same time, he also began to resent Cao Wenjin.
If it weren't for Cao Wenjin's expedition to Rhinoceros Continent, which forced monks from various vassal families to participate, and killed a large number of monks from his own sect and monks from vassal families, the credibility accumulated by Huang Shamen's ancestors for thousands of years would have been destroyed.
How could he, the leader of the Huangsha Sect, be so restrained like now, without any prestige as a leader?
No one can understand his mood.
Seeing Zhou Yang, whom he had once ridiculed, step by step surpass him in all aspects, his heart was filled with reluctance and jealousy.
However, as the head of the Huangsha Sect, he could not show anything. Not only could he not show it, he also had to suppress the jealousy in his heart.
Because he knew that Zhou Yang was no longer the Zhou Yang of the past. If he showed hostility towards Zhou Yang, the only ones who would be unlucky in the end would be Huang Shamen and himself.
"Zhou family, Zhou family, my Huangshamen may not perish in the hands of the Zhou family in the future, but the one who takes over my position as the overlord of the boundless sand sea of the Immortal Cultivation World of my Huangshamen will definitely be the Zhou family!"
Zhang Yunpeng looked up at the direction of the Zhou family outside the cave, with a look of reluctance and resentment on his face.
