Cultivation: I have an inventory

Cao family.

The head of the family, Cao Hao, was indeed injured in the massive attack of the evil cultivators half a month ago, but the injury was far less serious than what was announced to the public. After taking healing pills and recuperating for a few days, he recovered completely.

Originally, Cao Hao was also planning to show up at Xiao Changqing's foundation-building celebration and send a blessing.

It was considered to give Xiao Changqing face.

After all, he was not as arrogant and difficult to deal with as the Cao family's great elder. Although he was also more thoughtful, he was always used to being kind to others and being more friendly and easy to talk to.

Now Xiao Changqing and the Cao family have a tendency to oppose each other. At present, only Xiao Changqing dared to oppose the Cao family in Nanshanfang, which made many members of the Cao family dissatisfied with Xiao Changqing and had opinions.

But Cao Hao still restrained his members and did not want to have an open conflict with Xiao Changqing.

The Cao family tried not to provoke Xiao Changqing's two concubines, the property Guangju Building, and the Mu family who came forward to protect him.

Because Cao Hao saw clearly that the current Nanshanfang could not do without Xiao Changqing's second-level talisman skills, and needed Xiao Changqing to continuously provide second-level talismans for the war.

After the war, how the Cao family and Xiao Changqing get along is another matter, but at present, Xiao Changqing must be tolerated.

However.

Tolerance is tolerance.

Cao Hao is not without any preparation. He has already planned in his mind to find out Xiao Changqing's details.

He is not afraid of Xiao Changqing in the Qi Refining Realm, but the threat level of Xiao Changqing after the foundation building has increased sharply, and he needs to be cautious and serious.

However, Cao Hao did not have time to find a way to test Xiao Changqing's strength, and he accidentally found an opportunity, and it seemed that he didn't need to do it.

The evil cultivator seemed to have been unable to bear it...

...

Since the last time the evil cultivator tore a huge hole in the Nanshanfang mountain protection formation and launched a large-scale attack, Cao Hao has been more cautious and thought that the mountain protection formation may not be particularly useful.

Which second-level formation master in the evil cultivator camp, although his attainments are limited and he cannot directly break through the mountain protection formation that has reached the second-level late stage of extracting spiritual vein power, he may be able to take a different approach and break some small cracks more easily.

If a large crack is broken and a large number of evil cultivators come in, he can easily detect the movement and mobilize people to encircle and suppress them at the first time.

However, for small cracks, the evil cultivators will not send many people in, or simply send one or two people in, so the movement will be very small and not easy to be discovered.

Just yesterday, Cao Hao really sensed that there was a slight movement in the mountain protection formation, and an evil cultivator quietly entered Nanshanfang.

If he hadn't paid special attention to this matter, he would not have been able to find any clues.

Cao Hao's cultivation level was in the middle stage of foundation building, and with the help of the mountain protection formation, he did not take action directly to alert the enemy. He wanted to see the other party's purpose, and the evil cultivator who sneaked in did not realize that he had been discovered.

After Cao Hao's secret surveillance, he soon guessed one or two of the evil cultivators' plans.

Because after sneaking into Nanshanfang, this evil cultivator did not start a massacre, wantonly slaughtering the high-level cultivators in the Yi-character Cave Mansion in Nanshanfang, nor did he have any intentions towards the Cao family members, or him and the Supreme Elder.

He only had one focus, that is the Jiayi Cave Mansion!

The person living in the Jiayi Cave Mansion was naturally Xiao Changqing.

"It seems that the evil cultivator suffered a great loss last time because of the second-level talisman. He wanted to solve the source of the second-level talisman in Nanshanfang once and for all, and assassinated Xiao Changqing."

Cao Hao thought in his heart.

Of course, he would not allow Xiao Changqing to be assassinated by the evil cultivator.

The more the evil cultivator wanted Xiao Changqing to die, the more he wanted Xiao Changqing to live.

Once this evil cultivator who sneaked in took action and threatened Xiao Changqing's life, Cao Hao would definitely help him.

Therefore, Cao Hao did not attend Xiao Changqing's foundation-building celebration, but only sent gifts and blessings. The reason was that he had to monitor the movements of the evil cultivator to ensure that he could take action in time when the other party took action.

"You are quite good at choosing the time."

After Xiao Changqing's foundation-building celebration ended, the guests had already left.

The evil cultivator who had been secretly investigating for two days was finally ready to take action.

After the excitement, it was the time to relax vigilance. Choosing to take action at this time was indeed the easiest time to succeed in assassination.

Moreover, Cao Hao also discovered a scene that surprised him.

This evil cultivator did not know what specific trump card he had. He was expected to assassinate Xiao Changqing, but he first discovered that this evil cultivator was extremely good at disguise.

In the dark corner, after the evil cultivator's mana fluctuated slightly, he appeared the next moment and completely changed his appearance.

He was no longer the thin man before, but turned into a plump and enchanting beautiful woman, and was exactly the same as Ruan Qingzhu, the shopkeeper of Baibaolou!

Not only his figure, appearance and temperament, but also his aura and mana fluctuations are all the same!

At least in Cao Hao's perception, he did not find any clues!

If he had not witnessed it with his own eyes, he would not have thought that this 'Shopkeeper Ruan' was an evil cultivator in disguise, but the real person!

"What a brilliant disguise. Even with my cultivation in the middle stage of foundation building, I can't see through it at all!"

"Is it some kind of secret technique, or some special magic weapon effect?"

Cao Hao looked serious. Such an enemy lurking in the dark is really a bit scary and hard to guard against.

If he hadn't discovered it in advance, he would have thought about it from another perspective.

This evil cultivator disguised himself as a core elder of the Cao family, approached him openly, and suddenly killed him when he was off guard. Could he react and resist?

I'm afraid he would be worried about his life, right?

Originally, he was in a relaxed mood and wanted to use the evil cultivator to find out Xiao Changqing's details so that he would have a clear idea.

Now he had to think carefully whether to let the other party assassinate and test Xiao Changqing.

If Xiao Changqing was too weak and was killed directly, he would regret it too late!

…

…

"Manager Ruan? Let her in."

After hearing this, Xiao Changqing wondered why Ruan Qingzhu came back, but he didn't think too much and let Lin Ziyu bring her in.

Ruan Qingzhu was no different from when she attended the banquet just now. Not only was she dressed and dressed, but her temperament was also the same. Her behavior was very dignified and self-respecting, but because of her mature charm, she had a faint sense of charm.

"Senior Xiao, I have something very important to tell you. This matter is of great importance and cannot be known to a third person..."

Ruan Qingzhu said respectfully as he walked towards Xiao Changqing.

Xiao Changqing's face suddenly became strange after hearing this.

Senior Xiao?

When facing a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Realm, it is indeed correct for a cultivator in the Qi Refining Realm to call him "senior", regardless of his age.

Just like today at the Foundation Establishment Celebration, many guests did not dare to go beyond that and called Xiao Changqing "senior Xiao".

It was just that Xiao Changqing had just gone to Baibao Tower three days ago and met Ruan Qingzhu, so he told the other party not to be polite and to still call him Master Xiao Fu.

So...

"Okay. Ziyu and Zixi, you can go down first."

Xiao Changqing said to the Lin sisters calmly.

"Yes, Master."

The Lin sisters were a little curious, especially Lin Zixi secretly glanced at Ruan Qingzhu several times before leaving, guessing that this shopkeeper Ruan had something important to report to the master alone?

Could there be some secret that could not be revealed?

However, my sister reminded me before that as a concubine, I can't be jealous, let alone care who the master likes or how many women he has!

I won't say anything else.

The master is now a foundation-building cultivator with a lifespan of 180 years, but the two sisters have little hope of building a foundation, which is almost impossible.

Even if the sisters take the anti-aging pill in the future to ensure that their appearance will not age, they can only accompany the master for most of his life.

When they turn into a handful of yellow earth in the future, the master can't be without a woman by his side, right?

So Lin Zixi was murmuring in his heart, but he didn't show anything, and left with his sister obediently.

"Manager Ruan, tell me if you have anything to say."

At this moment, Xiao Changqing's spiritual consciousness quietly released, and at the same time used the effect of doubling the spiritual soul of the prisoner dragon bracelet.

In other words, at this moment, his spiritual soul strength has reached 84 feet, which is comparable to some weaker Jindan cultivators!

Of course, the distance of 84 feet may still be far less than the eyesight of the eyes in most cases, but it is very effective in distinguishing the true and false and seeing through illusions.

The stronger the spiritual consciousness, the more difficult it is to be confused by disguised illusions.

"The head of the Cao family? Why is he outside my cave?"

"And he is so timid, hiding his head and showing his tail. Could it be that..."

When Xiao Changqing's consciousness expanded, most of the huge Jiayi Cave was within his perception range.

He did not sense anything abnormal on Ruan Qingzhu at the first time, but found the head of the Cao family hiding outside the cave.

Today he was building a small foundation celebration. The Cao family came and said that the head of the family was avoiding light to heal his injuries, so he could not attend the celebration, but secretly came to Jiayi Cave at this time.

This made Xiao Changqing have to suspect that the Cao family was confused and wanted to attack him.

"This matter is too important, we have to worry about ears on the wall." Ruan Qingzhu's pretty face was solemn, and there was no clue at all. She approached Xiao Changqing calmly, as if she was going to tell Xiao Changqing in a low voice.

At this moment, Xiao Changqing still couldn't find any clues from Ruan Qingzhu.

His spiritual power sensed that Ruan Qingzhu's breath, magic power, and even soul were all normal. Only the core part of her soul seemed to be foggy, so he couldn't tell whether it was true or false, and he couldn't find any other breath on her.

But everything was too normal, which was abnormal in itself.

Because Ruan Qingzhu was just an ordinary ninth-level Qi Refining Great Perfection, Xiao Changqing's spiritual consciousness comparable to that of a Jindan Zhenren could not see it clearly.

Either Ruan Qingzhu had a big secret, or this person was not Ruan Qingzhu!

And Ruan Qingzhu was trapped in the ninth level of Qi Refining for such a long time, and was sent to Nanshanfang by Baihua Valley. He didn't even dare to try to build a foundation. Obviously, he was not like Xiao Changqing who had a big secret.

So...

"I want to see what tricks you Cao family want to play."

Xiao Changqing showed a sneer on his face.

He didn't stop Ruan Qingzhu from approaching. With a thought, the spiritual consciousness secret method "Nightmare Technique" had already "enshrouded" Ruan Qingzhu.
