As a fake elixir master, Lu Changan couldn't refuse, so he sat down next to him.
Xiang Jinglong obviously didn't recognize that the "Junior Brother Cheng" who had tricked him before was the Lu Changan in front of him.
Otherwise, he would never be so polite.
The three peak masters accompanied Xiang Jinglong to a banquet and drinks, and the atmosphere gradually became harmonious.
This uninvited visitor had no intention of forcing his presence, and his intentions were gradually revealed.
Xiang Jinglong's bright eyes sometimes looked at Shi Xianzi, as if he was interested. The latter kept a polite and distant attitude toward him, neither cold nor hot.
"Fellow Daoist Lu, I heard that you are a second-level high-grade Talisman Master. Talents like this are rare in Liang Kingdom."
Xiang Jinglong looked at Lu Changan again and praised.
"Zhenren Xiang is so complimentary. I barely made it to this list in the past two years."
"Well, in the past two years, the price of talismans and other materials has increased significantly. High-quality talismans are hard to find. I think you will earn a lot from Taoist Lu."
When Lu Changan heard this, he felt as if he was trying to understand the situation.
"A certain family wants to buy high-quality talismans for this junior, but it's hard to find one. Mr. Lu must have some inventory. Can he sell some?"
Xiang Jinglong spoke kindly and smiled.
"How much does Xiang Zhenren want to buy? What grade do you want?"
Lu Changan remained calm.
Ye Fei, who was not far away, looked at him with a bitter look in his eyes.
It is not difficult for Lu Changan to understand.
Xiang Jinglong had a "Bawang Meal" at Xiaodan Peak, received free treatment for his injuries, and received many precious medicines.
Now they called Lu Changan and Shi Xianzi over again, probably with the idea of free food, free service, free escort, and all-in-one enjoyment.
"Don't want too many. A hundred second-level high-grade talismans are not too many, and a few dozen of a certain family's are not too few."
Xiang Jinglong grinned, revealing his white teeth.
Lu Changan thought to himself, this guy has a really big appetite, even though he wants to ask for a lot of money.
Lu Changan can probably guess Xiang Jinglong's mental journey.
During the battle of Huanglong Mountain, he made nothing. He was seriously injured and had to lose some medicine.
I have been practicing fake elixirs for several years, and I bought a magic weapon, so money is tight.
I happened to be passing by Wuqi Mountain, so I wanted to make up for some "losses" and relieve my depression.
If there are usually two or three foundation building periods, there is really nothing that can be done about it. The only way is to spend money to eliminate disasters and treat it as a protection fee.
"I am disappointed with Mr. Xiang. There are no second-level talismans left in Mr. Lu's hands. They were all bought by Miss Shen from the 'Tengxing Chamber of Commerce' a year ago."
Lu Changan looked helpless.
"Really not?"
Xiang Jinglong stared at him with bright eyes.
Although no spiritual pressure was exerted, it brought invisible psychological oppression.
He naturally knew that Lu Changan just found an excuse to refuse. As a second-level high-grade talisman master, he would definitely keep some good products for his own use.
"No."
Lu Changan did not give in, "Several of Lu's sect friends also have the same needs, and there will be no goods in the short term."
"A year ago, Miss Shen from the Tengxing Chamber of Commerce did come to our Wu Qi Mountain to scan the goods. Even my formations were not in stock."
Shi Xianzi opened her mouth at the right time and explained.
"That Miss Shen actually ruined a certain family's good fortune."
Xiang Jinglong's face was worried, his voice was cold, and the wine cup in his hand knocked on the table, making a crisp sound.
Ye Fei's eyelids twitched.
Lu Changan and Shi Manrong looked at each other and did not panic.
Before the two came, Shi Manrong once said that if Xiang Jinglong tried to force himself, she would have the means to restrain him.
At Wu Qishan's home ground, as long as you retreat to Xiaopan Peak, you can use the formation to stop the fake Dan Zhenren.
If Lu Changan also has the corresponding means, there is no need to be too afraid.
Xiang Jinglong is not the kind of evil cultivator who tramples on the rules, and the possibility of doing anything openly is very low.
The three peak masters of Wuqi Mountain are all powerful.
Two of them had a good background, had a certain reputation and connections, and had many casual cultivators attached to them on the mountain.
The real person in False Dan is alone and it is impossible to silence him, let alone his injured body.
Unless Xiang Jinglong is not afraid of being wanted by the sect and lives in the dark side from now on.
…
Xiang Jinglong glanced at Shi Xianzi and Lu Changan, confirming that they were resolute and had no intention of giving in.
"Forget it, a certain family will chat with Miss Shen from the Tengxing Chamber of Commerce."
He made a haha and sighed, with no intention of putting further pressure.
Lu Changan felt funny in his heart. He knew the details of Xiang Jinglong and had expected this.
More than ten days had passed since Fu Xuemei formed the elixir, and Xiang Jinglong's injury was still serious.
Its main purpose is to treat the injury and get medicine to speed up the recovery of the injury. You should not want to cause unnecessary complications.
At most, it's a bit of a rip-off.
It’s okay if you can’t knock it, there’s no loss anyway.
As long as they don't do anything too outrageous, the major forces won't easily want a fake elixir master.
Afterwards, the atmosphere at the banquet returned to normal.
Ye Fei's eyes were slightly resentful, but he finally understood, and then he suffered a loss.
At that time, he was intimidated by Xiang Jinglong. He took out all kinds of precious medicines and even asked his beautiful concubine and maid to accompany him for free.
"Master Xiang, you just said that you participated in the attack on Huanglong Mountain. I don't know what the current situation is in Huanglong Immortal City and how long the battle will last."
Lu Changan finished a glass of wine and inquired about the news.
The stability of the surrounding geography is related to the financial prospects of Wuqishan craftsmen.
"Alas, heroes from all sides gathered together and almost completely destroyed Huanglong Mountain."
Xiang Jinglong drank a cup of spiritual wine, looking quite regretful.
"In the battle of Huanglong Mountain, after the armistice between the True Pill cultivators, the situation in the Immortal City has stabilized. Those True Pill cultivators have reached an agreement. Whether Fu Xuemei can achieve the True Pill will affect whether the Huanglong Mountain lineage can continue to control the Huanglong Immortal City..."
"Even if Fu Xuemei manages to form a true elixir, it will be difficult to reverse the decline of Huanglong Mountain."
Speaking of the latter part, Xiang Jinglong showed a confident smile again.
"Why is this?" Ye Fei was intrigued.
"First, in the recent war, Master Huanglong took secret medicine, which overdrawn his life. The price was not small, and he may have lost his life. We, real people, speculate that his lifespan is at least ten years, and at most no more than twenty years. .”
"Secondly, the quality of Fu Xuemei's elixir formation is poor among the true elixirs. Even if she is a genius with earth spirit roots, her future cultivation and advancement during the elixir formation period will not be so smooth."
Xiang Jinglong, as a fake Dan real person, revealed some key information.
…
The next day, the weather was slightly cooler.
There is no trace of Xiang Jinglong on Wuqi Mountain.
"This guy ate a king's meal and escaped very quickly."
Lu Changan walked out of the cave and glanced in a certain direction.
When did Xiang Jinglong leave? Wu Qishan was the only one who knew the specific time.
Lu Changan considered: intercepting and killing the injured Xiang Jinglong on the way, launching a magic talisman attack, and cooperating with the prototype of the magic weapon, he would be at least 70% sure.
This idea was quickly dismissed.
He has already obtained the Crystal Condensation Pill and can practice it step by step. There is no need for extraneous matters.
The important thing is that Xiang Jinglong and himself have no real grudges.
When Xiang Jinglong formed the elixir, he gave him a few pieces of middle-grade spiritual stones.
"Well, this person is indeed gone..."
That day, Lu Changan closed his eyes from time to time, integrating his mind into the second life of the Jiuyin Monument, enhancing his senses to make sure that no one was spying on him secretly.
…
One month later.
Lu Changan is over one hundred and twenty years old.
At this time, the situation in Huanglong Immortal City was completely settled.
Fu Xuemei achieved the true elixir and returned to Huanglong Mountain. With the support of her master Huanglong Zhenren, she began to take over the authority of Huanglong Mountain.
Through Zheng Centipede, Lu Changan got some inside information.
After the war, Huanglong's lineage gave up some of its interests and voice.
The industrial power of the Hengchuan Chamber of Commerce and the Lihuo Palace has taken root in Huanglongxian City or expanded its scale.
The fake elixir-level forces participated by the Mo family and others drank a little soup, but compared with their efforts, they made no profit at all.
"It's good that the situation is stable."
At this stage, Lu Changan really needs a peaceful cultivation life.
As long as he is given enough time, he will be able to successfully advance to the later stage of foundation building, and then find a good place to secretly plot to build the elixir.
…
The situation in Huanglongxian City has been stable for a while.
This day.
An unexpected guest came to Xiaogui Peak.
"This girl, please inform Master Lu Fu that Fu Dong wants to see you."
The visitor was a young man wearing a cotton-padded jacket and with clear features.
Lan Rou did not dare to neglect this foundation-building monk.
Since Fu Xuemei began to take power in Huanglong Mountain, she had even heard of this person's name.
Inside the cave.
Fu Dong got the permission and entered, and saw a quiet, gentle man in white, standing like an ancient tree with roots for a long time.
"My dear Fu Dong, I have long admired the name of fellow Taoist Lu."
This was the first time Fu Dong met Lu Changan. The latter's young appearance and outstanding temperament made him slightly startled.
But in the world of immortality, it is not unusual.
"Lu has also heard of Fellow Daoist Fu."
Lu Changan smiled and raised his hand to ask Fu Dong to take a seat.
Back then, Fu Dong was promoted to the foundation building stage with his inferior spiritual root qualifications, not long after Lu Changan.
Today, Fu Dong's cultivation is still at the early stage of foundation building.
This is the shackles of qualifications.
Being promoted to the foundation building stage is already a small miracle.
The difficulty is somewhat greater than Li Erqing's promotion to False Pill.
Lu Changan once heard that Fu Xuemei promised his master that he would not help his brother forcibly after he was promoted to Foundation Establishment.
There are many wonders in the world of immortality. In the long historical records, there are instances of inferior spiritual roots being promoted to the formation of pills, and even the existence of the Nascent Soul stage.
If you are lucky enough or have a great background, everything is possible.
"Fellow Daoist Lu, please accept my prayers."
Fu Dong took a deep breath and knelt down on the ground.
"Fellow Daoist Fu, this is impossible."
Lu Changan quickly supported him.
He noticed that there was a fake alchemy monk outside Little Turtle Peak. He seemed to be Fu Dong's bodyguard, and his consciousness had just swept over him.
"Fellow Daoist Lu, if it weren't for that exquisite foundation-building pill, Fu might have reached the end of his life."
Fu Dong's words are true.
"Today, Fu Dong came to visit, firstly to apologize, and secondly to express gratitude for the kindness of reinvention."
After speaking, he handed over a gift box.
"Fellow Daoist Fu, there is no need to mention what happened back then. Anyway, Lu suffered no loss at all, and the compensation given by your sister has already been exceeded."
Lu Changan smiled and took the gift box with a pleasant expression.
Fu Dong was polite for a moment and felt that Lu Changan had a good attitude and was not like the kind of person who holds grudges.
There should not be too many people who hold grudges against Huanglong Mountain.
As long as he doesn't make a high-profile appearance, no one will deliberately care about a monk with ordinary qualifications and low potential.
What's more, Lu Changan never showed any dissatisfaction with Huanglong Mountain from the beginning to the end, for decades.
Only those geniuses with unlimited potential who have spent thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi can enjoy special treatment.
"Fellow Daoist Lu, when Mr. Fu learned the truth, he wanted to go to Shuiyue Residence to apologize. Unfortunately, you moved..."
Fu Dong recounts decades of events.
"Later, I heard that Fellow Daoist Lu had moved to Wuqi Mountain or that he liked to be quiet and stay away from Huanglong, a place of right and wrong, so Fu didn't bother him."
Only now did Lu Changan know that he had passed Fu Dong decades ago.
In fact, this was not the first time the two met.
As Junior Brother Cheng, Lu Changan had dealt with Fu Dong and knew the latter's temperament.
During the conversation, Fu Dong felt very close to Lu Changan.
Two hours later.
Lu Changan sent Fu Dong out of the cave.
The fake elixir monk who secretly protected Fu Dong watched Lu Changan from a distance and nodded secretly.
"Friend Lu Dao, my sister asked me to tell you something. She still remembers the favor I owed you back then. If you have any difficulties in the future, you can go to Huanglong Mountain to find her."
"Okay, Lu has taken note of it."
Lu Changan watched Fu Dong leave.
Until it was confirmed, the fake Dan real person also left.
He just returned to the cave and opened the gift box given by Fu Dong.
