Chapter Two Hundred and Thirteen The Self-Deprecating Mu Dezong
Zhaixinglou is still the best restaurant in Jade Capital City. All banquet guests from Chunyang Palace are arranged here, and everyone from Tianyun Province is once again arranged on the eighth floor.
As a veteran Daogang monk, Wang Dao had many acquaintances. This time, Lin Xiao was also qualified to participate in the activities of the Daogang monks, so he took Lin Xiao to meet many veteran Daogang monks.
Wang Dao's move released a lot of signals. Many people knew that Tiansheng Sect had surpassed Danyang Sect in strength. Logically speaking, the two were competing with each other. However, the actions of the two were as harmonious as before, and Wang Dao was still in the same position.
Treating Lin Xiao with the attitude of supporting the younger generation is worth recalling.
At least some people who want to disrupt Tianyun Prefecture and divide Tianyun Prefecture have to weigh whether it is worth doing so and how much profit it will cost to divide Tianyun Prefecture.
Of course, Lin Xiao did not forget to advertise to Li Muxue. After all, there are very few fourth-level alchemists. There are only a few of them in Lu Guocai. Many are weak and cannot even train one. The entire market for fourth-level elixirs is very large.
Big.
However, the number of fourth-level formation masters, talisman makers, and weapon refiners is even less. According to Lin Xiao, there is only one fourth-level formation master in the entire Lu State, and there are no weapon refiners and talisman masters at all. All fourth-level formation masters are
Magical weapons and talismans are purchased from outside.
So although Gongming City now has fourth-level spiritual veins, the city protection formation has not been upgraded yet, and it is unrealistic to hire an formation master from Chunyang Palace. Lin Xiao is still afraid that he will tamper with the formation, so Lin Xiao
What he prepared was to improve his formation level, and the effect was pretty good. After a period of research, Lin Xiao's formation level had reached the third level.
After chatting for a while, people from Chunyang Palace arrived, and Lin Xiao and the others returned to the eighth floor. The disciples from Chunyang Palace lined up from the first floor to the ninth floor to congratulate Lu Muyang.
This time, the congratulatory team in Chunyang Palace was much longer than before. There were four Dao Gang monks from our sect alone, and more than 60 monks from Zifu appeared. If we count the Zifu who were guarding all over Chunyang Palace,
There are probably close to a hundred monks in the mansion.
This is still the power of the main sect of Chunyang Palace. In addition to this sect, there are six major families. Among them, there are three Daogang members of the Lu family. The other five families have more than ten people in total. The six Zifu families have almost a hundred people in total.
Not to mention those weaker families, the strength of the entire Chunyang Palace is really more than three points stronger than it was decades ago.
Faced with Chunyang Palace's flexing of muscles, the five people in Tianyun Prefecture could only smile on their faces, but they were disapproving in their hearts. All the sects in Tianyun Prefecture combined were about the same as the six major families of Chunyang Palace, or even
A little weaker.
"You know the Bai family of Bai Jade City, I used to think the Bai family was a little stronger, but now it seems, no, it can't be compared. There is really no comparison between vassals and princes."
Lin Xiao told Wang Dao that the Bai family is also a sixth-grade family and is backed by the Lingjian Sect. However, the development of the Bai family has been greatly restricted by the Lingjian Sect and cannot compare with Chunyang Palace.
"It's different. One has a backer and the other has no backer. Chunyang Palace offends the enemy and can be destroyed easily. However, even if the Bai family has enemies, they still have to pass the Spirit Sword Gate first..."
"Bang"
Wang Dao was talking when suddenly there was a loud noise. When everyone looked back, they saw a figure falling down the stairs from the ninth floor and landed on the eighth floor. Immediately, a foul smell came, and half an eight-story figure fell down.
The building smells of alcohol.
"Uncle Mu, Uncle Mu, are you okay?"
A Zifu monk immediately stepped forward, took out something from his arms and rubbed it on Mu Dezong's nose. Mu Dezong woke up slowly, and then he sprinkled a lot of pollen to disperse the stench.
The movements were smooth, and it was obviously not the first time he had done this.
Mu Dezong is a Taoist master. Even if he falls from a height of 100 meters, he will not die. He is just drunk. Monks are not easily drunk because they can use Xuan Qi to relieve the drunkenness. But if they deliberately get drunk, then
There is nothing anyone can do.
"I'm fine. Go away. I want to drink. Where's the wine? Why don't you drink it? Where are all the people dead?"
Mu Dezong pushed the man away and stumbled up to Lin Xiao's table. When he saw that there was no wine on the table, he immediately slapped the table and shouted. Everyone on the first floor was looking at him.
"Mu Dezong, why are you crazy? What do you want to do?"
"It turns out to be Uncle Lu. Why, today is a big day and you won't even let me drink wine?"
"You are from Chunyang Palace. Today you have to entertain guests instead of drinking to your death. What do you mean?"
"It's okay to entertain guests and drink. If you don't drink it yourself, what's the point of forcing others to drink? Of course, we want everyone to have fun together. Is there any problem?"
"Your clothes are disheveled and your body is full of stench. Where did you leave the sect's etiquette? Come here, please ask Mu Dezong to return to the mountain gate and go to the Jingtang to face the wall and think about it for five days. Mu Dezong, do you have any objections?"
"No, my uncle has the final say. Who made you the uncle? Get out of here, don't touch me, I'll go by myself."
Mu Dezhong glanced at Lu Muyang mockingly, then shook his head and stumbled downstairs.
"Everyone, I'm sorry to make you laugh. Come here and serve some food and drinks."
Lu Muyang waved his hands to everyone, and then he asked people to start serving wine and food lightly, and the banquet began.
"Headmaster Lin, I haven't seen him for many years."
After the banquet started, Lin Xiao watched as Li Changqing replaced the people who were originally coming to Lin Xiao's table to entertain guests, and sat down opposite Lin Xiao himself.
"Long time no see, Fellow Daoist Li, you are still as charming as ever."
"Compared to Master Lin, the name of Tiansheng Sect is unknown to everyone in Lu State today. The seven sceneries of Gongming City have been passed down for a long time, Qianling Wine, White Mist Tea, Baixi Garden..."
Li Changqing praised him and revealed many things about the Tiansheng Sect, especially Gongming City, which is now about to become the second largest city in Lu State. Some things about Gongming City are also talked about, and finally it was called Gongming City.
The seven sceneries are all the characteristics of Gongming City.
"Fellow Daoist Li, this is just a trivial matter, nothing compared to the talent of Daoyou Li. I heard that Friend Li has become the head of the Li family and is determined to innovate..."
Li Changqing's flattery made Lin Xiao unhappy. It would only be a disaster for the people of Chunyang Palace to focus on Gongming City, so Lin Xiao quickly counterattacked.
Li Changqing broke through Daogang a few years earlier than Leng Ning. Now it has been more than sixty years since he broke through. His cultivation has been promoted to the fourth level of Daogang. Moreover, the previous Daogang of the Li family has been incarnated twenty years ago. Li Changqing has officially become Li
The head of the family.
After becoming the head, Li Changqing radically reformed the Li family, eliminated the old and the weak, investigated the pros and cons, cracked down on corruption, and forged ahead with determination, making the originally sluggish Li family full of vitality and strength.
A hero, it is said that even Chunyang Palace wanted to recruit him, but Li Changqing refused.
"Headmaster Lin knows a lot about our Li family, but does Mr. Lin know who I learned this from?"
"Haha, Fellow Daoist Li doesn't want to learn from Lin, right?"
“Exactly so”
"Ahem, Fellow Daoist Li must be joking. Why don't Fellow Daoist Li talk about this newly promoted Patriarch Lu? We are not familiar with Patriarch Lu at all."
Lin Xiao was startled, what did Li Changqing want to do, win him over, so he quickly changed the topic and did not dare to talk about this topic anymore. Tiansheng Sect still wanted to make a fortune in silence.
Li Changqing did not deliberately praise the Tiansheng Sect. He already knew the attitude of Chunyang Palace towards the entire Tianyun State. Speaking of which, he had a good relationship with Lu Muyang and learned a lot of news from him.
However, some of Li Changqing's methods of reforming his family were really learned from the Tiansheng Sect. The decadent Li family gave Li Changqing too many insights. He himself was born in a branch of the Li family, but because of his good talent and good luck, he got
Although he had received support from the top management of the Li family, along the way, he had seen too many outstanding disciples being buried, and those who occupied high positions were all those in the big house who were in the corpse position.
The cleansing of the Li family who killed and seized treasure decades ago was his first test. After he took power, he was determined to revolutionize the entire Li family. However, he didn't know how to start at that time until he discovered some deeds of the Tiansheng Sect.
So I sent people to investigate and learned a lot of tricks.
In the next twenty years, Li Changqing eliminated a group of old, weak and incompetent members of the Li family, arranged them into some pension positions, vigorously promoted some down-and-out disciples from the side branches, and introduced a competition system to allow internal competition within the Li family to vigorously promote
Reward those with talents and talents.
Of course, the most critical point is that the Li family relies on the Chunyang Palace. The power of the Chunyang Palace has greatly increased, and the Li family has also benefited from it, so they have suppressed many opposing voices and made his reforms successful.
We ate and drank up and down the Star Reaching Tower. The day passed quickly. Yujing City once again held a huge auction. In the evening, everyone also went to participate in the auction.
Lin Xiao and Wang Dao both got VIP cards and entered the private room. However, Lin Xiao already looked down upon most of the auctions in Jade Capital City. After all, he had been to White Jade City and had seen too many good things.
, at most, only the finale can be seen.
And with Lin Xiao's current identity and strength, he no longer has to hide and can act openly. He really doesn't believe that anyone dares to intercept him halfway. If there is such a thing that he can't think of, Lin Xiao will welcome it and just give it to him.
Human head.
The day after the auction ended, Lin Xiao left with Wang Dao and others, and no one stopped them along the way. However, there was still a lot of movement last night, and the bloody scene outside Yujing City was still there.
Lin Xiao and Wang Dao didn't mention Mu Dezong's matter, and they pretended not to have seen it. Both of them were old foxes and would not take action easily. Splitting a force is not a small matter. If you can't kill with one blow, it's better not to do it.
, this will lead to endless vendetta.
After returning to the Tiansheng Sect, Lin Xiao quickly entered seclusion, but this time it was not to improve his cultivation, but to improve his formation level. As the head of the Tiansheng Sect, Lin Xiao also felt that he had to have someone he could use.
skill.
After Bai Xixi broke through Daogang, Lin Xiao had no major point expenditures for the time being, and the system accumulated a balance of more than 30,000 points. Lin Xiao redeemed eighteen shrunken versions of the Enlightenment Pills at one time, and stayed in seclusion for a year and a half.
By the time Lin Xiao came out of seclusion, he had successfully raised his formation level to the fourth-level low-level level, surpassing the full-time formation master Zhou Huaiying and the genius formation master Xu Zhongsheng.
After that, Lin Xiao found two people and asked the General Affairs Hall to collect materials for the fourth-level city protection formation in preparation for upgrading Gongming City's city protection formation to the fourth-level level.
