The first person who heard the news didn't believe their ears at all: Is there any mistake? Lan Xiang dared to talk to Longshan Siya?
From a big perspective, the decline of Qi cultivation is the consensus of the entire Fenghuang world. From a small perspective, over the past few hundred years, the Longshan Sword 1 sect has been suppressing the Lanxiang sect, encroaching on its territory step by step.
Everyone can see it.
Especially the recent high-profile announcement from the Longshan Sword Sect that the previous leader of the sect, after enlightening the truth in the Northern Territory, recently returned to Longshan, and was valued by the Zhenyi Sect, and will go to the Shangzong to practice in the near future.
In the eyes of too many people, the appearance of a real person in the famous sect is great news, and the market of the Longshan sect has also skyrocketed. It can be said that it is an unprecedented event.
Countless local forces came to Longshan to express their congratulations. Who dares to neglect such a great event?
However, few people noticed that Lan Xiang did not send anyone to congratulate him at all. Although some people from other sects under the Baituo Sect went to congratulate him, it was just a formality and casual meaning.
In fact, the story of Ma Zhizhang has been spread in a small area in Baituomen. People who really know the inside story are looking at Longshan with the mentality of seeing a joke. Who will come to congratulate him in a real way?
If Director Ma thinks this is a secret mockery and makes the newly promoted real person unhappy, then it will be called an injustice.
In the White Camel Gate, as long as you pay a little attention, you can find out about this kind of secret. But for the small secular forces, this kind of secret is not something they are qualified to know.
Therefore, in the eyes of many people, Lan Xiang's high profile is a very inexplicable thing: late or early, he chose to expel Longshan from Baolan Prefecture when Longshan's predecessor was in charge of Wuzhen.
Is this a death-defying rhythm?
Otherwise, the monopoly of information is a terrible thing, and those with vested interests can use it freely.
Many forces that had taken refuge in Longshan were immediately at a loss. They were at a loss as to what to do, and many people inquired about the news. When Lan Xiang was dealing with the Luo family, the leader of the Longshan Sword Sect's War Hall Wen Hall personally beheaded the elder of the Luo family.
So some people are wondering whether the Luo family, for some reason unknown to everyone, was evil to the war hall, causing the war hall to borrow a knife to kill someone, and Lan Xiang's intervention was just a cover-up?
For a time, there were divergent opinions, and many hearsayers and "paper secret party" all published their own accurate predictions, which is the saying in the earth world, don't tell what you know, and talk nonsense if you don't know.
In this chaos, the Lanxiang faction soon selected their second target: the Dugu family in Xifeng Town.
The Dugu family was completely founded on Longshan. Originally there were only three immortals in the family, but now they have one immortal and nine immortals.
This fairy was pushed up by various means at the last moment of his life. At that time, Lan Xiang and Longshan were fighting, but Longshan couldn't help but directly stepped forward and sold some medicine and other spiritual materials to forcibly manufacture for the Dugu family.
An angel acts as a thug.
All in all, this immortal's fighting power is not strong - what he cares more about is that he can live an extra seven hundred years, so he ruined his fortune and turned himself into an immortal.
When Lan Xiang's disciples came to visit, although the Dugu family was a little dissatisfied, there was no precedent set by the Luo family, so they discussed with the Lan Xiang sect: There is nothing we can do to hand over two hundred years of offerings at once. Can we divide it into batches?
Pay it off?
This is the truth. No one can pay off two hundred years of sacrifice at once.
But at the same time, this is also a means of delay. The Dugu family plans to hand over part of it first and see how things will develop in the future.
In the so-called family, no one lacks the wisdom to survive. The reason why the Luo family seems so weak is simply because they were tricked by Longshan.
And with the lessons learned from the Luo family, the Dugu family will not be so tough even if they have immortals.
However, it is very regrettable that Lan Xiang's disciples did not agree to the request of the Dugu family. They said unceremoniously that they would give your family three days to pay up, otherwise, get out of Baolan Prefecture!
That's right, it's "Get out of Baolanzhou." These five words came to the ears of the Dugu family after they came from Lan Xiang's disciples.
Three days is not enough for the Dugu family to mobilize. If they want to hand over spiritual stones, they can't come up with so many at the moment.
If you don't want to hand over the spirit stone, you will know after seeing the He family in Lake City that in this short period of time, such a large property will never be moved away. Even if the property can be sold, it will be at a huge discount.
For Shangling's property, it would be good if you can sell it for ten yuan.
If Lan Xiang takes away these properties and resells them, the price will be much higher than ten yuan of spirit. It is normal to sell twenty or thirty yuan of spirit. Those buyers should not keep the price so low.
But people who think this way are really wrong. The buyer is also taking a huge risk - if Lan Xiang does not recognize the deal, they will be beaten.
Even if Lan Xiang admits it, they still have to deal with it, and may also face counterattack from Longshan.
In short, it is not easy for anyone to make some money, and high profits must be accompanied by high risks.
What is more realistic is: even if the Dugu family wants to sell their property at one-tenth of the price, they still have to consider whether the transaction can be completed within three days. If the transaction cannot be completed, it will be in vain.
So three days later, the immortals of the Dugu family came forward and begged Hall Master Wen: Can you give me two days of grace?
In the past three days, the Dugu family has been scattering spirit stones like crazy, asking for help from experts from all walks of life, and also begging Dingli of the Longshan sect to come for help - I only need your support, the spirit stones are easy to find!
Precisely because they spared no effort to scatter spirit stones, they got a very secret message: Longshan is going to completely abandon Baolan Prefecture. Don’t ask why, you don’t deserve to know!
The Dugu family relied on having some dealings with Hall Master Wen, so they made a request and begged for a two-day grace period.
And Hall Master Wen's answer was to slash with a sword expressionlessly. With your medicine piled on top of you, you are an immortal. Do you deserve to say to me, "Sell me to save your face"?
Die!
However, this time, his sudden sword failed. The old man from the Dugu family swayed and ran away, cursing loudly, "Lan Xiang's bastards, listen up. I will spend my whole life. I swear
I will disturb your peace from top to bottom!"
"Noisy!" the Great Elder Qi Hongshi shouted sharply, swaying his body, and directly used the newly-cultivated Shrinking Ground and Stepping on the Clouds technique. He caught up with the opponent in an instant, raised his hand and punched him hard.
The great elder's methods are more than this, but for him, a majestic fifth-level immortal, one punch is enough for him to face a first-level immortal from the same family. Please note that this is a punch of Qi cultivation.
However, there was a flash of white light on Old Zu Dugu's body, he withstood the punch, and his speed increased again.
"Bastard!" Qi Hongshi yelled angrily, and not only used Shukuchi Tayun again, but also took out a small hammer and hit the opponent hard.
There was a loud "bang" sound, and Old Man Dugu fell to the ground in the distance. Before he hit the ground, a large mouthful of blood had already spurted out.
The great elder also paused and moved suddenly, and a green light passed by his waist without delay.
"You dare to play dirty tricks?" Qi Hongzhi became more and more annoyed. He had not been practicing squatting on the clouds for a long time, and this was the first time he used it in a battle. Unexpectedly, the opponent actually released a mid-level treasure talisman, which caused him to be seriously injured.
He almost got hit.
Based on his experience, he immediately thought of the consequences of being hit, and his face suddenly turned livid.
It was precisely because he had figured out the consequences that he did not continue to follow simply and rudely. Instead, he drew an arc and stepped on the clouds for two short distances before arriving at the place where the person landed.
However, just as he was falling, he suddenly saw Dugu Laozu swaying on the ground and disappearing immediately.
"Invisibility?" The great elder frowned, took out the hammer again, pointed at the ground, "Quick!"
The small hammer became about ten feet in size in an instant, and hit the ground hard, causing the entire ground to shake, and even the air near the ground was rippled like water waves.
The power of this blow is not very great. In fact, it is a range of killing method. With the great elder's cultivation as a fifth-level heavenly immortal, such a blow can only kill high-level spirits under the direct blow of the small hammer.
Immortal, as for the first-level heavenly immortal, this may not be the case.
But such a shock was enough to cause serious injuries to Youxian within three miles.
He doesn't expect to kill Dugu Laozu when he uses it here. He just hopes to force the opponent's invisibility to fail through the vibration of the ground and air.
Disturbing the fluctuations of spiritual energy in a large area is the only way to break the invisibility technique.
However, after the hammer was struck, a slight vibration of spiritual energy was heard not far from the ground. Qi Hongshi's expression finally changed, "I'm going to..., Earth Escape?"
The other party didn't use the invisibility technique, but the earth escape technique.
Escape techniques are extremely difficult to master and require extremely high physical fitness and skills. Escape techniques with five elements attributes are magical powers and are not comparable to those of ordinary people like Blood Escape.
The elder of the Dugu family is only a first-level heavenly immortal. It is a delusion to cultivate Earth Escape, but if he has the Earth Escape Talisman, it will make sense.
But it is also a life-saving thing. The Earth Escape Talisman is much rarer than the immortal-level portable amulet.
Talismans can be made as long as the cultivation level is high, and it is nothing more than a waste of energy and blood. However, the attribute escape talisman requires not only a thorough understanding of the attributes, but also extremely advanced means of making the talisman.
In principle, the escape technique is a kind of teleportation with the help of a medium, and it also involves the rules of space. If the method of making the talisman is not precise, the attribute escape talisman is very likely to cause accidents.
For example, Chen Taizhong once wanted to think about whether he could understand the rules of space by interrupting the teleportation, but Lao Yi directly denied it, saying that you don't know where you will get yourself, and the refining of the escape talisman is not perfect, which is also the consequence.
It cannot be said that the escape talisman is as rare as the teleportation array, but it is definitely quite rare.
Therefore, Qi Hongshi's face was very ugly: the two great immortals took action, but they still allowed the most rubbish first-level immortal to escape, especially when Lan Xiang was planning to rebuild his prestige.
Not to mention what trouble this person might cause to Lan Xiang's disciples after escaping, just saying that he was able to escape is a slap in the face.
At this moment, Wen Hall Master also came with his sword. He said with a smile but not a smile, "No way, Elder Qi, you actually let people run away?"
