Chapter 250 The reason for yesterday (two chapters in one)
Chapter 250 The Cause of Yesterday (two chapters in one)
After all, Liu Yu had taken dragon blood fruit and strengthened his body a little, but he still behaved like this, and the others were naturally even more unbearable.
"Cough cough cough"
Cui Liang let out several heavy dry coughs. If there was really nothing in his stomach, he would probably vomit it out.
The other three monks were also swaying, and their performance was not much different.
However, a few of them were foundation-building monks after all and had extremely strong recovery abilities. After Liu Yu suppressed their discomfort, the others almost returned to normal.
"Senior Brother Cui, let's go."
Liu Yu walked out of the teleportation array and said to Cui Liang, who was still in the array.
It is natural that such an important place as the Teleportation Hall cannot be managed by monks.
On the surface, there were only a few foundation-building monks, but with his keen spiritual sense, he could faintly feel that there seemed to be the presence of Jindan elders in the back hall.
Together with Cui Liang, they registered at the registration office of the Teleportation Hall. The two of them left the Teleportation Hall and came to Qingtai Peak without encountering any obstruction.
Familiar scenery comes into view. In the distance is the majestic and majestic Lingshan Mountain. There are clouds and smoke on it, making it difficult for people to see its original appearance. Rare and rare animals are playing and jumping in the mountains and forests, and the cranes are singing in the air and elegantly fluttering their wings.
; Between the mountains, escaping lights fly by from time to time, rising and disappearing.
After almost twenty winters and summers, they returned to the sect again, and the two of them had different feelings.
"came back."
Feeling the aura in the air that was far richer than that on the southern border, Liu Yu felt inexplicably relaxed, with a faint smile on her lips.
Cui Liang felt a sense of survival after a disaster, and his precarious days on the battlefield were finally over, and his smile was even brighter.
He secretly vowed to use other ways to serve his sect and never put himself in danger in the future.
After a while, the two looked at each other and nodded, then turned into two rays of light, one black and one yellow, soaring into the sky and flying into the mountains of Yuanyang Sect.
The straight-line distance between Qingtai Peak and Qingyun Peak is about four hundred miles. With the escape speed in the early stage of foundation building, it only takes about a little more than an hour.
An hour later, Liu Yu and Cui Liang landed on the Qingyun Peak mountainside and walked straight up the mountain. After a while, they arrived at the sect's main hall.
The disciples stationed here at this time are no longer the familiar ones from back then, but a group of unfamiliar disciples.
"Senior Brother, can you be in the palace?"
Before Liu Yu could speak, Cui Liang asked the disciple guarding the door on the right.
It seemed that he couldn't wait, as he said before, he was anxious to go back and "make out" with his concubines.
"Disciple has met two master uncles!"
"Back to Master, the master is handling sect affairs in the back hall."
After Cui Liang showed the token, all the Qi Refining disciples did not dare to neglect and saluted one after another, and then the disciple who was questioned told the truth.
"Um."
"Junior Brother Liu, let's go in."
When facing Liu Yu, Cui Liang was extremely polite and showed no airs, but when facing the Qi Refining Stage disciples, he was condescending and arrogant.
This was extremely normal in the world of immortality. Liu Yu was not surprised and nodded and the two of them walked into the palace.
The disciples guarding the sect's main hall looked respectful and watched the two men go away, then whispered and speculated on the origins of the two uncles.
After showing the sect token, they were able to pass without any obstruction. The disciples in the Qi Refining Stage did not dare to stop them. They arrived at the back hall of the sect hall. After being notified by the disciples guarding here, the two of them entered the back hall.
An incense burner emitted a faint smoke, which filled the apse with a faint scent of sandalwood, which refreshed the spirit.
Compared with twenty years ago, the layout of the apse has not changed much, except that the appearance of the leader, Zhuang Ziling, looks a bit older.
The head of the Yuanyang Sect is mainly responsible for handling some of the chores of the sect's operation. In fact, he is a chief with much greater power. When encountering important matters, he still has to consult Elder Jindan or discuss it with the chief in charge of other departments.
Generally, they are held by foundation-building monks who are cunning and have profound cultivation, but have no hope of forming a core. Therefore, in terms of status, they are not as good as some famous foundation-building monks, but they are higher than ordinary foundation-building monks.
A monk who has lost his potential for advancement, is about to become old, and has not experienced dangerous battles for many years, may be able to manipulate some ordinary foundation-building monks even though he has considerable power.
But it is not really taken seriously by many foundation-building monks with deep roots.
"I've met the head brother."
Liu and Yu entered the palace and slightly cupped their hands and said lukewarmly.
"It turns out to be Junior Brother Cui and Junior Brother Liu, please sit down."
"Not long ago, I received the news that the battle at the Lingshi Mine was completely over. I didn't expect the two junior brothers to come back so soon."
Zhuang Ziling seemed very surprised to see the two of them. He stood up and returned the favor, asking them to sit down. His attitude was very polite.
"hey-hey."
"Isn't this a great blessing thanks to the head brother?"
Cui Liang seemed to have something in his words and had a bit of a yin and yang attitude, sitting swaggeringly on the Grand Master's chair nearby.
After being tempered on the battlefield, it has indeed increased a bit of evil spirit, and it looks really decent now.
When he thought about his life and death on the frontline battlefield, he hated the leader who personally sent him there. The two sides had actually formed a cause and effect, leaving only a superficial harmony.
"If I don't return to the sect, I'm afraid weeds will grow in the cave."
Liu Yu's eyes narrowed slightly and she smiled brightly, and she sat down on the Grand Master's chair without any courtesy.
Today is different from the past. He is no longer the monk who just established his foundation three years ago. After twenty years of hard training and growth, he is worthy of being the leader who has been in the sect all year round.
Over the years in Wangyue City, he has found out clearly that the Zhuang family is just a larger foundation-building family with nine foundation-building monks, but there are no golden elixir monks.
Why did he, who had just established a foundation, go to the frontline battlefield so quickly?
Of course, the credit of this leader and the acquiescence of the other courtyards are indispensable.
If it weren't for the fact that he had so many trump cards, his magical powers would far exceed those of his level, plus the care of the Yan family.
How can we turn danger into good fortune and gain many benefits?
If it were a real new foundation builder, this would probably be a disaster!
Whether this cause and effect is big or small, who makes Liu Yu have no backer in the sect and his own foothold is not stable?
But the truth is the truth, and he will never accept this result.
A spark of revenge, starting a prairie fire again and again!
Yesterday's cause, tomorrow's effect.
This is Liu Yu's rule. He has never been a broad-minded person.
If you can't be happy with your grudges in this world where great power belongs to you, then why should you seek immortality? What kind of Tao should you cultivate?
Keep this account in mind, and wait until your cultivation level improves in the future to "repay" properly.
Of course, Zhuang Ziling understood why the two of them had such an attitude. The smile on his face did not change, and he politely asked about some things in Wangyue City.
The dirty things in secret are dirty, and if they can't be said openly, the two of them will naturally not fall out on the spot.
After a few exchanges with him, Liu Yu frowned slightly and interrupted Zhuang Ziling's intention to continue:
"Brother, if you have anything to say, we can talk to you next time."
"Liu has just returned to the sect. There are still many important things to deal with, so please submit the task first."
After speaking, Liu Yu took out the sect token and with a little luck, his magic power floated to the table in front of Zhuang Ziling.
"Exactly."
Cui Liang agreed and also took out the token and put it on the table.
"Hahaha, since the two junior brothers are eager to return home, I won't keep two of them."
"It's just that if you encounter any inconvenience in the sect, your two junior brothers can come to me and everything will be easily arranged."
This time Zhuang Ziling's attitude was surprisingly good and no longer as tough as before.
He smiled and took out a jade book, typed out more than a dozen spells, and then started to operate, changing the mission status of the two people, and allocating the sect's contribution for this mission.
The two of them went to retrieve the sect's token, checked briefly, and found that there were no problems with the sect's contribution and mission status, then they said goodbye.
"This matter is over, senior brother, I will take my leave soon!"
Liu Yu and Cui Liang stood up and cupped their hands slightly.
"In this case, I won't keep my two junior brothers here. You can come and see them often when you have time."
Zhuang Ziling also stood up and said with a smile.
When arranging the mission for the two of them to go to the front line, many sect leaders actually discussed the result and then reported it to Elder Jindan. The leader would only make an announcement after the elder agreed.
Zhuang Ziling participated in the discussion and announcement, but in fact it was the result of discussions among many monks. He just pushed it, and felt that the cause and effect was not significant.
He, the dignified leader, lowered his profile in the hope of resolving this cause and effect, hoping that these two people would not be ignorant of good and evil.
Watching the two figures disappear completely, the smile on Zhuang Ziling's face faded and he fell into deep thought.
On the other side, Liu Yu and Cui Liang left the sect's main hall. Because flying was not allowed in the sect's important area, they walked straight to the mountainside.
"Senior Brother Cui, farewell here. At a suitable time, you can come to Liu's cave as a guest. Let's drink spiritual tea and talk."
Less than half an hour later, the two of them walked to the mountainside. Liu Yu slightly cupped his hands and said loudly.
"That's natural. I won't be polite when that happens!"
Cui Liang said, he showed his teeth when he smiled and his mustache twitched, which looked a little funny.
Liu Yu nodded lightly and did not continue to be polite. He patted his storage bag and took out the Soul-Chasing Blade, which turned into a black light and rose into the sky.
The direction of his flight was not Cailian Cave Mansion, but Renhefang City, where Yudantang is located, because he wanted to see the operation of Yudantang in recent years.
Two hours later, Liu Yu rushed from Qingyun Peak to Renhefang City and fell into hiding outside Fang City.
Renhefang City is located between several mountains. There are many peaks for hundreds of miles around where outer disciples and inner disciples live. People who come here to trade over time form the city.
This market should be considered good among small markets. The people who come and go are all disciples of the Yuanyang Sect. Their cultivation levels are generally around the middle stage of Qi Refining, and their pockets are much bigger.
It is far better than Huangshanfang City on the other side of Hanyue City, but it is far behind the East City of Wangyue City.
Liu Yu walked into Renhefang City and took a quick look.
The crowds of people coming and going on the street were all disciples of the Yuanyang Sect, both inside and outside, wearing white and gray robes, and there were hundreds of them.
They walked around with relaxed expressions, looking at some novel objects curiously, which was completely different from the hurried scene in Moon Moon City.
It should be that the news of the end of the war in the world of immortality has spread within the sect. Without the pressure of facing a life and death crisis, they can be so comfortable.
Ignoring the disciples who were bowing and giving way along the way, Liu Yu walked towards the location of Jade Pill Hall, preparing for a "surprise inspection".
Walking to a street with a good location and a large flow of people, I spotted a three-story attic shop. Several monks came and went in front of the shop from time to time.
"not bad."
Liu Yu stopped and watched for a while, then nodded slightly when he saw this scene. It seemed that Yudan Hall had been managed well by Jiang Qiushui over the years, at least it had not gone downhill.
To a certain extent, the large flow of people can also mean that the transaction volume is not small, and the business will not be much worse.
So Liu Yu no longer hesitated and walked into the store.
The store space is not very large, and can only accommodate ten transparent counters. On the counters are bottles of elixirs used during the Qi refining period, and a list with the prices of the elixirs is placed on the counter.
At this time, there were several monks in front of several counters, looking at the elixirs in them, hesitating because of the price.
Since Sun Ju was assigned to the Jade Pill Hall, she tried Liu Yu several times without giving up, but got no response, so she gave up some of her thoughts.
At this time, she was behind a counter, patiently persuading customers to buy goods, her mouth was dry, her tongue was dry, and her heart was gradually becoming irritable.
She accidentally looked up and saw a familiar figure.
"Uncle Liu Liu!"
Seeing the familiar face and feeling the unfathomable aura, Sun Ju's heart trembled slightly and she blurted out.
When they sensed the arrival of the Foundation Establishment Stage Master, the store suddenly became quiet, and many monks became cautious in their movements.
"Um."
Liu Yu walked to the counter where Sun Ju was sitting and responded lightly.
Then he looked around the store and said in a gentle tone:
"Liu is just here to hang out, so you fellow apprentices and nephews don't need to pay attention."
"When I don't exist, everything can be business as usual."
After hearing this, many disciples in the store breathed a sigh of relief and turned around to continue bargaining, but their voices and movements unconsciously became much quieter.
Ignoring the clerk and disciples, Liu Yu turned around and asked Sun Ju about the situation of Jade Alchemy Hall in recent years.
Sun Ju's biggest supporter was Liu Yu, otherwise she would have been kicked out by Jiang Qiu Shui, who disliked her. Now she naturally had something to say and informed that Jiang Qiu Shui was currently on the second floor greeting distinguished guests.
After hearing this, Liu Yu could not tell whether he was happy or angry. He just nodded slightly and then ordered:
"Go and notify Jiang Qiushui and ask her to come over immediately. I'll be waiting on the third floor."
After saying that, without waiting for Sun Ju's response, she walked down the stairs towards the third floor.
Sun Ju looked at his back with complicated eyes. Although she was very reluctant, she still had to do as she was told.
The first floor of the Jade Pill Hall is the lobby, where various types of elixirs are displayed, and general transactions are concluded here; the second floor is divided into small rooms, which are gorgeously decorated and used to entertain "distinguished guests" who spend a lot of money.
The third floor is divided into two rooms, one large and one small. The larger room naturally belongs to Liu Yu, and the smaller room belongs to Jiang Qiushui. It is equipped with a set of first-class defensive formations to ensure sufficient security and privacy.
Liu Yu went straight to the third floor with the formation token in hand, opened the door, walked in, and sat down at a stone table.
The decoration of this room is not very gorgeous or exquisite, but not a single thing that should be missing is missing, and the facilities are very complete.
Jiang Qiushui asked about it when decorating, but Liu Yu replied casually, and it turned into what it is now. I don't know what this woman thought.
However, he has never stayed here overnight. Every time he comes here, it is a short stay, so naturally it is necessary.
All utensils and objects are spotless, and it can be seen that they are cleaned regularly.
Liu Yu glanced casually and this thought flashed across his mind.
Then he gently pressed the storage bag, took out the "Qinghu Longjing" spiritual tea and a set of tea sets given by Jia Fu, and began to brew it.
