Beast-controlling fairy clan

After learning about the Xuan Jing Stone mine, Zhou Chun did not dare to make his own decisions and quickly went to visit the two Supreme Elders.

After some discussion between the three of them, they decided that Zhou Daoyi would take Zhou Chun to visit the pioneer stronghold in person.

The reason why it was Zhou Daoyi was also because Zhou Mingde's spiritual pet, the Vulcan Jackal, was already sleeping and advanced after swallowing the third-level mid-level demon pill, and it was not suitable to move it.

Zhou Daoyi took Zhou Chun and Zhou Jiarui out of the family, and then directly released the green dragon Qingqing and led the two of them towards the wilderness outside Yunzhou.

After more than two days of traveling, the three of them arrived at the Zhou family's stronghold.

At this time, Li Qinghe, the Zifu monk of the Li family, also arrived here with several foundation-building monks, but the people from the You family had not arrived yet.

Seeing this, Zhou Daoyi first looked at Li Qinghe and asked: "Fellow Daoist Li, what is Senior Li's opinion on this matter?"

In terms of seniority, Li Qinghe is several generations older than Zhou Daoyi, and his age is several dozen years older than Zhou Mingde.

But after all, the Li family and the Zhou family are not as close as before. If they are matched by seniority, it will weaken the momentum of the Zhou family.

Therefore, Zhou Daoyi could only call Li Qinghe the common title among monks of the same level in the world of immortality.

But Li Qinghe didn't care about this. After hearing this, he whispered: "Ancestor's opinion on this matter is that there should be no more bloody conflicts, and at least 60% of the interests should be preserved!"

"Is it because the Yuelun Sect is standing behind the Su family?"

Zhou Daoyi narrowed his eyes and asked in a low voice.

Then Li Qinghe nodded and admitted.

The Su family in Jiangzhou has been inherited for nearly a thousand years and was founded by a monk from the Zifu period of Yuelun Sect.

For a long time in the beginning, this family was a cultivating family within the Yuelun Sect and did not become independent.

Later, as the Su family grew larger and larger, the Yuelun Sect did not allow those Su family monks with poor qualifications to stay in the sect as Yuelun Sect disciples, and the Su family officially became independent.

Then after years of development, the Su family had the Jindan ancestor who is now in charge of the family, and became a Jindan family.

With this deep relationship with the Yuelun Sect, the Su family has always been a direct vassal family valued by the Yuelun Sect. The golden elixir period ancestor of the Su family also serves as a guest elder in the Yuelun Sect.

Under such circumstances, it makes sense that Li Jingxuan does not want to have a bloody conflict with the Su family.

After all, although a black crystal stone vein is precious, it is not enough for the Li family to risk their lives to offend a Jindan family with a profound background like the Su family.

"Then it seems that our two families have the same idea. Our Zhou family also believes that under the current circumstances, we must not have a fierce conflict with a family like the Su family!"

Zhou Daoyi nodded slightly and told the Zhou family's plan.

Compared to the Li family, which has Jindan monks in charge, the Zhou family is undoubtedly weaker, and they don't want to conflict with a Jindan family with a strong background like the Su family.

After all, the Zhou family currently does not lack the profits from a black crystal mineral vein. Even if they really give up this black crystal mineral vein, it is still acceptable.

Not long after, Yu Liming, the Zifu period monk of the You family, also arrived at the stronghold with his people.

Afterwards, the principals of the three major families communicated and basically unified their views. They would try their best to fight for their own interests without causing bloody conflicts. It would be best to preserve more than half of the interests of the black crystal stone vein.

After the views were unified in this way, the three major families arranged for people to go to the Su family's stronghold and invited the Su family's talkers to come and discuss it in detail.

Because the family's mountain gate was too far away from the pioneering stronghold, the Su family directly arranged for a monk from the Zifu period to sit at the pioneering stronghold. This was also the basis for the Su family's previous courage to directly seize the black crystal mineral veins.

However, when both parties died, the Su family's Zifu monk no longer dared to make decisions on his own. He also sent someone back to the family to report and ask for instructions from the family's golden elixir ancestor.

At this time, due to the distance, he had not yet received a reply from his ancestor.

Therefore, after receiving invitations from the three major families here, he adopted delaying tactics and said that he would wait a few days before attending the appointment.

Zhou Daoyi and others knew this very well, so they waited inside the pioneer stronghold.

While waiting, Zhou Chun and Zhou Daoyi also inspected and learned about the situation of this stronghold under the leadership of Zhou Jiarui.

The location of this stronghold is quite good. It is right in the middle of many rolling hills and mountains. The stronghold is located at the highest point within a radius of 200 miles. It is a mountain with a height of more than 800 feet, and the mountain is very majestic and huge.

The mountain protection formation established by the You family for this stronghold is even more powerful than the "Five Directions Miluo Formation", covering an area of ​​more than 20 miles including the main peak where the stronghold is located and more than a dozen surrounding peaks. Go in.

Just because the time is too short, most places in the stronghold are still in an undeveloped state.

Currently, there are about a hundred or so resident monks in the entire stronghold, 90% of whom are monks from the Li family and the You family, and a few are casual cultivators who are bold enough to take risks here.

Jingguo expanded thousands of miles in the wilderness, and many casual cultivators also saw the opportunity.

The timid ones are still waiting in Yunzhou, asking and collecting information.

Some bold casual cultivators followed the major cultivating families when they were building strongholds. While helping to build the strongholds to earn some spiritual coins, they also competed to be the first to eat crabs.

Zhou Chun was walking on the mountain and found that the monks of the Li family had given full play to their family's strengths, cultivated medicinal fields in some places in the stronghold that were suitable for medicinal fields, and sown elixir seeds.

According to the agreement between the three families, all output in the stronghold must be equally divided, which means that after the elixirs in these medicine fields grow, the Zhou family will also get a share.

Of course, as a reciprocal contribution, the Zhou family also took care of the travel of the monks in the stronghold.

Ten eight-pointed water deer and six dragon-scale horses were sent to this stronghold by the Zhou family to serve as transportation mounts for the monks in the stronghold.

The You family is responsible for guarding the array and providing array assistance to the monks in the stronghold.

For example, the monks of the Li family need to use formations to create certain special environments to grow elixirs, and the monks of the Zhou family need to use formations to maintain the temperature in the icehouse. These require formation support from the You family.

As early as the Sanjue Sect, the three major families had cooperated like this, and now that they are cooperating again, they have a tacit understanding.

After inspecting the situation in the stronghold at this time, Zhou Chun nodded with satisfaction and said: "The environment of this stronghold is indeed good. In a few years, after it is confirmed that the surrounding area is relatively safe, we can allow those in the family to Young monks come here to practice for a year or two."

Hearing his words, Zhou Daoyi couldn't help but said: "Experience is okay, but it must be led by experienced elders."

"This is natural."

Zhou Chun responded and expressed his understanding.

After staying in the stronghold for two days, the Zifu monk from the Su family brought people to the stronghold for an appointment.

The Zifu monk who came to the Su family for an appointment was named Su Renmei. He was a handsome man with a dignified appearance. He looked like he was in his early thirties and was quite tall.

After he saw Zhou Daoyi and others who came out to greet him, he raised his hands and said lightly: "Fellow Taoists, Su is polite."

"I have met Fellow Daoist Su. We have been waiting for Fellow Daoist Su for a long time. Please come, Fellow Daoist."

Li Qinghe, representing the three major families, returned the gift with his hand, and then with a smile on his face, he guided the person into the stronghold.

When they arrived at the stronghold, everyone from the four families sat down. Li Qinghe first bowed his hands to Su Renmei and said: "The younger generation of the former clan is not sensible. Because of some things, there was a conflict with your family. Li is here to represent The three major families and I will apologize to Fellow Daoist Su and ask for your forgiveness."

Seeing this, Su Renmei hurriedly returned the favor and said, "You're welcome, Fellow Daoist Li. The younger generations of my Su family were a little too impulsive in the previous conflict. Su had already reprimanded them before he came. I think they will definitely not do so in the future." Do it again.”

Hearing his words, Li Qinghe, You Liming, and Zhou Daoyi all looked at each other with a look of relaxation in their eyes.

Obviously, Su Renmei's words also revealed the intention of the Su family. They would not be hostile to the three major families because of the previous conflict.

Since this is the case, the intentions of both parties should be very clear.

Everyone wants to have a leg on that black crystal stone vein!

Thinking of this, Li Qinghe spoke again: "I invited Fellow Daoist Su over today. In addition to expressing my apology to Fellow Daoist, we also want to ask Fellow Daoist Su and the Su family what they think of the Xuan Jing Stone Mine!"

Unexpectedly, after Su Renmei heard what he said, she asked, "But I don't know what the families of the three Taoist friends think of the Xuan Jing Stone Mine?"

The three of them were slightly startled by his rhetorical question, and then Yu Liming said in a deep voice: "The Xuan Jing Stone Mine was discovered first by my You family monks, and its location is only more than 200 miles away from this stronghold. , we and three other companies should have the mining rights of this vein!"

"You, fellow Taoist, are wrong!"

Su Renmei shook her head repeatedly and said slowly: "In terms of distance, the black crystal mine should be closer to our Su family's stronghold. Why should the mining rights belong to my Su family!"

As soon as he said this, Li Qinghe's expression changed and he couldn't help but say: "According to the regulations of the three sects, the core territory of each stronghold is only the area of ​​a hundred miles around the stronghold. Outside this area, all mineral elixirs are All resources belong to the discoverer!"

"Yes, the three sects have such regulations."

Su Renmei nodded first, acknowledging Li Qinghe's words, and then smiled faintly and said: "But how can Fellow Daoist Li prove that you discovered the black crystal mine first? Have you reported it to the three sects? Or are you? Have you dug out a mine yet?"

These words immediately left Li Qinghe and the others speechless.

Reporting this kind of thing to the three sects must wait until they confirm the specific size and reserves of the mineral veins. The same is true for mining in mines.

The meaning of Su Renmei's words is also very obvious. Even if the black crystal mine was discovered by the three major families first, since it was discovered by the Su family before it was reported for mining, the Su family has every reason to compete for this mine.

Seeing that it was difficult to frighten the opponent with these rules, Li Qinghe could only say in a deep voice: "Since Fellow Daoist Su said this, we will not beat around the bush. There is absolutely no way that we and the three major families will let go of this Xuan Jing Stone Mine. We must It’s meant to be mined!”

"It is impossible for our Su family to let go of such a spiritual mine at our doorstep!"

Su Renmei also expressed her attitude firmly.

The firm tone of both sides seemed to leave no room for negotiation.

But in fact, the two sides had already left room for each other from the beginning of the dialogue.

Therefore, after being silent for a while, Zhou Daoyi, who had never spoken a word, said in a deep voice: "It is said that it is better to resolve enemies than to make enemies. The Su family and I are all subordinate families of the three sects, and we are all one family. !”

"Since no one wants to make concessions on the black crystal stone mine, and we don't want the other party to completely give up the strength of this spiritual mine, how about working together to mine the spiritual mine?"

Speaking from the relatively weak Zhou family, these words can be regarded as saving the face of the three golden elixir families, the Li family, the You family, and the Su family.

As Zhou Daoyi spoke these words, the atmosphere relaxed again.

Su Renmei glanced at Zhou Daoyi, nodded slightly and said: "It's not impossible to cooperate in mining the spiritual mine, but I don't know how the three Taoists are planning to cooperate?"

Hearing this, Li Qinghe immediately said solemnly: "Seventy-three points, our three families will get a total of 70%, and the Su family will get only 30%. This is already taking care of the Su family!"

"That's not possible. Since it is a cooperative mining, it must be at least 50-50!"

Su Renmei shook her head repeatedly and denied Li Qinghe's statement on the spot.

"Fellow Daoist Su, don't let the lion open his mouth!"

Yu Liming's voice sank, and he said in a deep voice with an angry look on his face: "We discovered the spirit mine first, and it should have been owned by our three families. Now you have taken away 30% of it, and you are already getting a huge advantage! Don't be greedy as a human being. ah!"

Li Qinghe also said coldly: "What You Daoyou said is true. We will never accept a 50-50 split. If that's the case, then we can only rely on our abilities to see who can invest more manpower!"

Seeing them like this, Su Renmei narrowed her eyes slightly and pondered.

The 50/50 split was just something he said casually, and he knew in his heart that it was unlikely that the three major families would agree.

But it was impossible for him to easily agree to the proposals of the three major families.

So after pondering for a while, he nodded gently and said: "Well, we are cultivators after all. Since everyone is dissatisfied with the distribution method of cooperation, we will use the method of cultivators to decide who to listen to."

"Oh, but I don't know what method Su Daoyou mentioned?"

Zhou Daoyi's eyes flashed with strange color, and he asked softly.

The monks such as Zhou Chun who had been watching also turned their curious eyes to Su Renmei.

Seeing this, Su Renmei immediately replied: "It's very simple. Each of your three major families will have a foundation-building monk to compete with the monks of my Su family. As long as you win two games, then it will be distributed according to the seven-three." If you lose two games, we’ll split it 50-50, what do the three fellow Taoists think?”
