"Laojun and I have made peace, which will naturally give us more power to deal with external demons. This is good for everyone!"
When the Jade Emperor heard these words, he immediately clapped his hands and applauded. If the external demon really came, it would be a fatal blow to him. After all, he was the Jade Emperor, and his status would definitely be threatened.
"Dong Bin, I am really happy that you are so understanding. I think the same thing as you, but you also know that although I am in charge of the three realms, Laojun is not under my control at all!"
"If we really get into trouble, I can't afford to offend you two!"
Ye Fan didn't expect that the Jade Emperor would say this directly. It seemed that what he said directly resonated with him.
"But Jade Emperor, there is one thing I must make clear to you. If Taishang Laojun is unwilling to make peace with me, then what will really happen between me and Laojun? I hope you can stand on my side, because only
Only then can I resist all external demons!"
When he said this, his tone was full of confidence.
This shocked the Jade Emperor. He did not expect him to be so confident. You must know that external demons are very powerful.
Even Laojun didn't dare to say that. Where did he get the courage? Is it because of what Yuanshi Tianzun said back then?
Ye Fan ignored the Jade Emperor's thoughts and continued.
"If you don't want to stand on my side, then I won't blame you, but you can't stand on Laojun's side, otherwise I won't be able to talk to you then!"
The Jade Emperor expressed repeatedly: "Dongbin, don't worry about this, I will make a good choice!"
I secretly thought to myself that the best way to do this kind of thing is not to offend anyone. Of course, if one party is really suppressed, then he will definitely get more benefits.
But if the pressure fails, you will lose all your money!
Ye Fan looked at the Jade Emperor and thought it was impossible for him to make a decision at once. After all, this was a matter of his position and life.
It's not that simple to make a decision.
"Jade Emperor, I have finished speaking and will leave now without disturbing your rest!"
Ye Fan didn't want to linger either.
The Jade Emperor stood up and said, "Dong Bin, please walk slowly!"
After Ye Fan disappears.
The Jade Emperor whispered softly: "Hey, this matter is difficult to handle. If Lu Dongbin and Laojun don't handle it well, heaven may be in chaos, but what can I do? There is absolutely no way!"
"Take a step and see what happens!"
After Ye Fan disappeared, he went directly to Taishang Laojun's Tushita Palace.
He went to the alchemy room alone and found Taishang Laojun who was refining alchemy. As for Qinglong and Qicai, they were outside.
Taishang Laojun was refining elixirs. When he felt Ye Fan's arrival, he did not open his eyes because he and Ye Fan were not at odds with each other.
The most important thing is that Ye Fan's cultivation is only in the early stage of sainthood, and he is in the late stage, so he feels that he doesn't need to give this face at all.
He closed his eyes and said calmly: "What do you mean by breaking into my territory privately? Do you think I am easy to bully?"
Ye Fan found a place to sit down and said with a smile:
"Laojun, these are serious words. You are in the late stage of a saint. Who dares to bully you? This time I am here to discuss something with Laojun!"
Taishang Laojun still didn't open his eyes, and he already knew the purpose of Ye Fan's visit, but he still pretended not to know and asked: "What's the matter?"
"Tell me about it!"
Ye Fan knew that Taishang Laojun was pretending to be confused, but he didn't say anything. On the contrary, if Taishang Laojun directly told the problem, he would feel it was abnormal.
"Laojun, I know that you are very worried about me because of what happened to your two boys!"
Before Ye Fan could finish speaking, Taishang Laojun immediately said: "How dare you? You are Lu Dongbin. You have opinions on Tathagata's words, let alone me?"
Ye Fan still didn't pay attention to his teasing and continued: "Old gentleman, actually you really don't need to be like this. Now the external demons are staring at the heaven with eager eyes. No matter who we are missing, it is equivalent to missing a strength to deal with the external demons."
!”
"So, I think the two of us should make peace and resist the external demons together!"
Taishang Laojun suddenly opened his eyes and stared at Ye Fan: "I agree with what you said, but how should you explain the matter of my two boys? What if you explain it to me?"
Ye Fan knew that Laojun would not resolve this matter so easily. If Taishang Laojun did not have Yuanshi Tianzun as his junior brother and Hongjun Ancestor as his master, Ye Fan would not have given him too much face.
But as the saying goes, if you don't give a person face, you have to look at the people behind him. Things in the heaven are complicated and diverse. If you can't control the world, then you have to be obedient.
Follow the rules of the strong.
Ye Fan just doesn't want to follow the rules of these strong men. In his opinion, you are qualified to set the rules, then so can I!
But now, if he really falls out with Taishang Laojun, it will be really difficult to deal with it. Of course, if Taishang Laojun makes trouble unreasonably, then he will do it even if he raises his head!
This is his temper!
"Laojun, what kind of explanation do you want?" Ye Fan asked with a smile.
Taishang Laojun waved the whisk in his hand, pointed to his alchemy furnace, and showed a smile: "Simple, I have recently developed a new elixir, but it takes a long time to refine this elixir.
Put a lot of power into the alchemy furnace to strengthen the power of the elixir!"
"If you really want me to ask for peace, then use your power to enter the elixir. I will not pursue the matter of the two boys!"
Ye Fan had some doubts in his heart. If he just wanted to gain strength, Lao Jun's strength would be enough. Why must he have his own strength? I'm afraid it's not just about strength!
I asked curiously: "So how much power is needed?"
"Not much, it only requires two-fifths of your strength, and you can recover in a month. If you think it will take a long time, I can give you a pill to help you recover quickly!"
Taishang Laojun said very calmly.
Ye Fan thought to himself that if he really only wanted strength, then he wouldn't need Taishang Laojun's elixir, he could just go to the Chaos Cauldron to recover.
But Taishang Laojun has various elixirs to restore strength, why doesn't he gain strength by himself?
"Laojun, tell the truth, do you just need strength? If you just need strength, I really can't figure out why you need mine. Your strength is no worse than mine!"
"And you also have your own elixirs to restore power. To you, it's not worth mentioning at all."
Taishang Laojun smiled plainly and said matter-of-factly: "Yes, your strength is indeed far behind mine. It doesn't require your strength, it just requires three drops of your blood!"
"What? Three drops of blood!"
Ye Fan was shocked instantly.
Essence and blood are the essence of a cultivator.
It takes countless years to cultivate a drop of essence and blood, and once the essence and blood is taken out, one's own cultivation will quickly regress, and it is possible that one may directly degenerate into a saint.
If you just ask for three drops of blood essence now, wouldn't it mean that you will directly degrade to the level of an immortal?
How is this different from killing him?
"Laojun, are you serious?" Ye Fan asked with a frown.
Taishang Laojun stood up and waved his whisk: "Are you kidding me?"
"You want three drops of my blood, what's the difference between that and killing me?" Ye Fan asked again.
"Ha ha!"
Taishang Laojun laughed twice.
Then he explained: "Lu Dongbin, you are taking the matter too seriously. I just want three drops of your essence and blood. How can you say that I will kill you? You have the foundation of a saint. Even if you take out three drops of your essence and blood now, what else can you do?"
How long will it take for you to recover?"
"And I promise that as long as you give me three drops of blood essence, I will provide you with a large amount of elixirs for subsequent recovery, ensuring that you can recover to the early stage of a saint in a hundred years!"
Ye Fan felt very funny when he heard what he said. He promised to provide me with a large amount of elixirs? Isn't it true that when I lose my strength, I won't be at the mercy of others?
Even if Taishang Laojun doesn't kill him, the Jade Emperor may not let him go.
The Jade Emperor doesn't dare to offend him now, that's because his strength is here. Once his strength drops to the immortal level, how can the Jade Emperor let him develop?
He wouldn't do such a dangerous thing.
Moreover, what does Taishang Laojun want his three drops of blood essence for?
Besides refining elixirs that can break through one's own cultivation level, what else can it be?
"Laojun, if my guess is not wrong, you should be refining the elixir for breakthrough, right? With this elixir, you can break through to the Great Perfection of Saints!"
Taishang Laojun did not hide it, because he knew that hiding it was useless. At this level of cultivation, everyone must know the role of essence and blood.
"That's right, I just plan to break through to the Great Perfection of Saints. You also said before that external demons are eyeing our heaven. If there is another Saint of Great Perfection at this time, wouldn't it be easier to deal with external demons?"
"You have to know that if you are an early saint and I am a late saint, the two of us together will definitely not be as powerful as the Dzogchen Saint!"
"But now, I have developed an elixir. As long as you give me three drops of essence and blood, I can break through to the Great Perfection of Saints, and you can recover in a hundred years, and you can also get my protection. Why not?
Woolen cloth?"
Ye Fan couldn't help but want to laugh, but it was not a happy smile, but a laugh at Taishang Laojun's tricks.
"Laojun, Laojun, do you really think I'm a fool? Don't you know what the hearts of the gods in heaven are like? You know better than me!"
"If you don't have strength, what's the use of someone's protection? It's completely useless!"
Taishang Laojun said softly "Oh" and asked: "Then why do you still have such a detailed chat with me? Why do you want to ask for peace? Didn't you see that my master is the ancestor Hongjun and my junior brother is the Yuanshi Tianzun?
?”
"You don't dare to offend me. Doesn't this mean asylum?"
Ye Fan didn't expect Laojun to speak so clearly. In this case, he didn't hide his words anymore and simply said: "Yes, I am indeed afraid of your master and Yuanshi Tianzun!"
"This is indeed protection, but if I really lose my strength and others kill me, you can just turn a blind eye!"
Taishang Laojun suddenly became furious, stared at me, and shouted: "You don't believe in my character?"
