Do not die

Just when Du Cheng, the alchemy monk of the Soul Controlling Army, set off from Wumenghai and came to Wucai Ridge, Li Wenchang was also arriving at Wucai Ridge with Shi Mao, the president of the Puppet Master Branch.

What they did was quite similar.

Du Cheng came here to restock the military merit exchange office in Wucailing. At the same time, he also wanted to use this time to exchange the accumulated military merit for various resources to take back.

Although Patriarch Mingnan left the main mountain of the Yuling Sect together, it was not just the group of pill-forming ancestors of Patriarch Mingnan, but also a large number of foundation-building and Qi-training monks who were strung below them.

Each pill can be regarded as a small hill.

Now, these "mountains" have become a heavy burden hanging on each Jiedan.

They have families, relatives, and friends, and many of them are even direct blood relatives.

As the beast tide broke out in the Qingxuan Domain, during negotiations with the Qingxuan Sect, the Danjie monks were reorganized into the Spirit Controlling Army and divided into three, scattered in Tianqi Mountain, Wumenghai, and Kurosawahara.

The huge number of Qi training and foundation building "tails" were also divided into three, and were placed in appropriate positions within the three third-level evil veins.

Most of the Wumenghai group were placed in Qianling Island and its surroundings.

The various first- and second-level finished products that Du Cheng brought were basically made by these people working overtime day and night.

The military merit earned was divided into two parts, and a small part was used to meet the needs of these Qi-training and foundation-building monks for their own cultivation life on Qianling Island.

Most of them were exchanged from the Qingxuanzong Deacon Hall for various third-level resources, including elixirs, magic weapons, talismans, formations, spaceships, etc., to enhance the combat effectiveness of the entire spirit-controlling army.

As for the third-level spirit puppets and other third-level finished products that they made from the third-level great demons and various third-level spiritual materials, the great demon-level beasts are not enough for them to use, except for a few. Apart from being used to enhance style and reputation, they are basically not put on the shelves for exchange of military merit.

When he first came to Qingxuan Territory, Du Cheng and these Ling Yu Sect formed pills, all of them were very "shabby" due to the intense consumption during the internal fighting.

Many monks' beast masters and spirit puppets were almost wiped out. Even those who were in better condition suffered heavy losses.

Just barely retaining one or two powerful beast masters/powerful spirit puppets, they were either external injuries or internal injuries, either minor or major disabilities.

——This is also an important reason why the civil war in the Yuling Sect stopped so quickly.

As both monks of the Ling Yu Sect, they really know where each other's weak points are. Every move and every move is aimed at bankrupting their opponent.

The ancestors of Mingnan who took the initiative to withdraw from (be kicked out of) the Yuling Realm were the first group to stand on the edge of bankruptcy because they failed to hold on.

Now, relying on fighting to support fighting, they have finally regained some strength.

Relying on strong strength and step-by-step planning, some relatively safe footholds were finally opened up in the three evil places, and the family barely had a stable foothold.

Everyone optimistically speculates that when the beast tide is completely extinguished, they will be able to truly establish a foothold in Tianqi Mountain, Wumenghai, and Kurosawahara.

After knowing this, you can understand why Du Cheng was so angry.

Even the unspoken rules in the world of cultivation that high-level monks do not attack low-level monks at will are no longer followed.

In his opinion, this is not as simple as "vicious competition" at all, but a direct attack on their lives.

…

The purpose of Li Wenchang and Shi Mao's visit to Wucailing this time was, firstly, to deliver some of the spiritual puppets of various grades and types provided by General "Qihuangzi", and at the same time to announce and supervise the implementation of the new regulations.

——There are many details, but the most important thing is actually that the exchange price of all spirit puppets is 20% lower than similar products provided by Yulingjun.

Because of the reputation accumulated by thousands of fake pill spirit puppets, no one has any doubts about the quality of these spirit puppets.

With such an obvious advantage in terms of price, the Yulingjun Exchange Point, which was originally no less lively than the Professionals Association, soon became deserted.

After confirming that everything was running well, the two planned to leave silently.

They all expected that the Professional Association's lack of martial ethics would inevitably lead to a fierce reaction from the Spirit Controlling Army.

If members of the Professional Association were active on the front lines of the beast tide, large-scale casualties might soon occur.

Fortunately, few people from the Professional Association were active on the front lines of the beast tide, and now they have all been recalled urgently, and they have all huddled in the safe rear.

He is not afraid of being shot from behind by the Spirit Controlling Army.

Knowing that this place would soon become the center of the whirlpool, they naturally wanted to leave as soon as possible after the matter was done.

Now that the president has made his words clear, they will naturally not be stupid enough to take the initiative to resist the thunder.

But they didn't expect that they were still a step too late.

When they wanted to grease their feet and run away, a powerful divine consciousness had already locked onto the two of them.

An imposing, murderous guy strode into the hall.

Under his background, everyone in the Professional Association, including the two of them separated by a wall, became rabbits that could be manipulated.

…

【Who is in charge? Come out and speak! 】

[In the dignified Professionals Association, is there no one who can stand on the stage? ! 】

[How dare such an eggless person argue with me about the Yuling Sect? 】

Shi Mao was restless.

Every word is like a dagger, piercing straight into the heart.

Although there is a wall to block it, under the powerful consciousness of the Danjie monk, this cover has no effect.

What's the difference between this and being pointed at and scolded?

Shi Mao, who was restless, had already lifted his butt off the chair several times, wanting to go out and face the provocation of the Ling Yu Sect's Dan Formation.

Although both he and Li Wenchang were in the early stages of pill formation and were far different from the murderer outside, he really didn't believe that the other party dared to openly commit murder here.

He could probably imagine that the situation would be very embarrassing at that time.

But no matter how embarrassing it is, even if he knocks him to the ground, it's better than being scolded like this and being a coward.

He has never been treated like this since he became Foundation Architect!

But the reason why he didn't take action and wanted to get up and leave many times, but suppressed the impulse in his heart many times, was also very simple.

Because of Li Wenchang next to him.

Unlike his uneasy expression, Li Wenchang quickly calmed down, except for being a little shocked at first.

He sat there motionless, as if the person being pointed at and scolded was not him.

Li Wenchang is older than him in the association, has higher cultivation level than him, and the professional level that professionals value most is also above him.

Therefore, when he came to Wucailing this time, he consciously positioned himself as the deputy.

Old God Li Wenchang has not taken any action, so naturally he cannot act rashly.

But now, he finally couldn't hold it in any longer.

"Friend Daoist Li?!"

Shi Mao sent a message to Li Wenchang, reminding him with urging.

"Um?"

Li Wenchang turned to look at him with a puzzled expression on his face.

As if asking him, what did you ask me to do?

? ? ?

Seeing his reaction like this, Shi Mao's face was filled with questions, but he still endured his impatience and said in a deep voice, "Why don't we go out? What are we waiting for here?"

"Get out? Why are you going out?" Li Wenchang's face became more confused.

After hearing this, Shi Mao's eyes suddenly widened.

What is this nonsense? !

"Why are you going out? Of course it's to solve the problem! Are we just going to hide here and be a coward?!"

Seeing that Li Wenchang's answer was so "shameless", his words became rude.

What made him angry was that the old guy didn't even think about going out.

Fortunately, he had worried about his thoughts many times just now and forced himself to the chair again and again.

Facing the angry Shi Mao, Li Wenchang's face became even more confused.

“Are you sure you went out to solve a problem?

Are you sure that being pointed in the nose and scolded in front of him or beaten will solve the problem? "

Shi Mao's expression froze. Of course he knew what Li Wenchang said, but this did not become the reason for the two of them to hide and not show up.

And this is why he has made up his mind to face the embarrassment, but Li Wenchang doesn't move, and neither does he.

If you really can't avoid such an experience, having someone to experience it with you makes it seem less unbearable.

Moreover, he is only a deputy in this business, and Li Wenchang is the real leader.

According to common sense, if the two of them go out, most of the anger of the Dan Ling Sect master will be poured out on Li Wenchang.

Unexpectedly, he had a beautiful idea in his heart, but Li Wenchang had an even better idea than him.

"Shameless old thief!" He cursed in his mind.

Li Wenchang looked calm and continued:

"Moreover, this problem should not have been solved by the two of us in the first place. We were just unlucky and got it right."

"It's not up to us to solve it? Then who should solve it?"

Shi Mao thought to himself, could this old thief be the president of the inner circle?

Who caused the trouble and who will clean it up?

Li Wenchang said softly: "Here he comes."

Shi Mao looked shocked.

Soon, he felt another powerful aura suddenly appear in the distance, and soon appeared in the hall outside from far to near.

After a moment of doubt, Shi Mao suddenly realized: "Qingxuan Sect!"

The importance of Wucailing now is self-evident.

Among them, this military merit exchange area is the best!

In normal times, all kinds of precious resources that are rarely seen by peak foundation-building monks are here just very common items on the military merit exchange list.

There are even some third-level treasures.

The order here cannot be overstated.

Qingxuanzong even has an order that strictly prohibits anyone from causing trouble in this area.

As for those who want to commit robbery here, they are looking for death.

However, the heavy treasure touches people's hearts. Even if Qingxuan Sect's deterrence in the minds of the monks is sufficient, there is no guarantee that anyone will take interest in the treasure.

To ensure nothing goes wrong, Qingxuan Sect will arrange for an unknown number of powerful pill-forming men of unknown strength to guard and maintain such military merit exchange points.

Obviously, the action of the monk from the Spirit Controlling Army just now had broken the rules set by Qingxuan Sect.

Since the two masters, himself and Li Wenchang, have yet to come forward, the Qingxuan Sect Jiedan who is hiding in the dark has no reason not to end.

After thinking about this, Shi Mao suddenly turned to look at Li Wenchang.

He couldn't help but think that if the two of them had gone out early, the situation would naturally be embarrassing for them, but the anger of the monk from the Ling Yu Sect would probably not be as great as it is now, and he would not Encountered the red line drawn by Qingxuanzong.

Then Qingxuanzong's pill formation hiding in the dark will probably not end, but he will be happy to watch the show from behind?

Are they really being humiliated in vain? !

After thinking about this, his perception of Li Wenchang changed 180 degrees.

"You're not calling me an old thief now, are you?" Li Wenchang said suddenly.

"Ah? What are you..." Shi Mao hurriedly sighed twice in his heart, and changed his words to: "Since Qingxuanzong has come forward, we should go out, right?"

Li Wenchang shook his head and said, "Why are you going out? Wouldn't it be better to wait until the matter is settled before going out?"

"..."

…

A hall separated by a wall.

When Du Cheng saw that the two turtles inside still hadn't shown up, he continued to get angry.

Suddenly his expression froze, he stopped, and turned to look at the door.

The next moment he looked over, a figure turned into a rainbow light and came in from the outside, and finally landed gently in front of him.

The moment he saw this person, Du Cheng put away his contempt.

As a third-generation disciple of the Yuling Sect, he even raised his hands to the Xuan generation monk opposite him and said, "Uncle."

Yu Ling Sect and Qing Xuan Sect have had a "friendship" for nearly a hundred years, and the exchanges at the Dan level are extremely frequent. Apart from anything else, if any of the five sects has a celebration, there will be a gathering.

They are no strangers to each other.

The monk of the Xuan generation nodded and accepted Du Cheng's greetings. He turned to look at the monk who was slumped in the corner next to him, coughing up blood, and frowned:

"Ducheng, what are you doing?

Didn't anyone remind you before coming that you are not allowed to cause trouble here? "

Feeling full of grievances, when he first met Qingxuanzong's "Uncle Master", he thought that the other person showed up to make decisions for him. Now when he suddenly heard these words, Du Cheng felt as if his world was turned upside down and everything was shattered.

He was so shocked that he didn't even know how to reply. He just stared at the "Uncle Master" in front of him with wide eyes.

After a long time, he asked in a stiff voice: "Uncle Master, isn't your arrogance too obvious?!"

"You actually said that I was making trouble?... Since you are guarding this place, you should know what is happening here better than me!

Are you unclear to this point? ! "

By the end of the sentence, Du Cheng's eyes had become cold and stern again, and there was no trace of the "warmth" of his nephew and uncle.

If your heart is with me, you are my uncle.

Even if you stand from a neutral perspective, I can barely accept it.

But if you stand on the opposite side...Uncle Master? Shi Nima is so big!

Being reprimanded by him in person, the Qingxuan Sect monk looked a little unhappy.

Perhaps, he himself feels that his current position is a bit biased.

However, he quickly adjusted.

"Those are two different things."

He shook his head and said: "What I'm talking about now is that you took action here. Not only did you injure people, but you also blocked the exchange of military honors... No matter what your reasons are, your behavior is not allowed!"

"..." Du Cheng stared at the man in front of him and opened his mouth several times, but did not say a word.

Is there any heavenly principle?

Is there any royal method?

For the first time, he found Qingxuanzong's face so ugly.

For the first time, he realized how oppressive it felt to be dependent on someone else. (End of chapter)
