Eternal Tranquility

The black cloud is a strange beast that can fly in the clouds and travel thousands of miles. It is regarded as auspicious, so it is highly respected by monks. But because this kind of spiritual beast is extremely rare, it's no wonder that people in the Xuanyuan family don't know how to raise it.

Liu Qinghuan changed his perverse and cold attitude when facing people, and showed an infatuated expression of love and joy towards a group of dark cloud cubs. He repeatedly asked people to get fresh spiritual fruits, and then took out the fine wine he had prepared and drank it himself. The clean mountain spring was carefully placed not far from the cubs.

The foals were in a commotion for a while because of the stranger's approach, but soon they smelled the refreshing fragrance of wine. Some of the ponies were bold enough to look at Liu Qinghuan and others while moving closer to the water tank.

After waiting for a group of cubs to resist the temptation and come to drink water and munch on fresh fruits, everyone present breathed a sigh of relief.

The monk surnamed Wang raised his thumb and said in admiration: "Friend Hu, these cubs have been refusing to eat for several days, and they are willing to eat as soon as you come. It is indeed a good idea to invite you! Otherwise, I would be really afraid of them. I can’t hold on much longer.”

Liu Qinghuan's face with a slight smile sank again, and he snorted coldly: "Although they are willing to eat, they have suffered a lot these days, and their fur is no longer shiny. Maybe some of them are sick!"

Then he looked at the Xuanyuan tribesmen mockingly: "Besides, conquering Wuyunji will not happen overnight. You don't think that you can make them obey by giving them some food and drink, do you?"

The monk surnamed Wang showed a trace of worry on his face, but he didn't care in his heart. He was a guest, why should he worry so much, so he asked the Xuanyuan tribesman in charge of spiritual beasts to introduce them to each other.

"I would like to ask Fellow Daoist Hu to be more considerate in the future. As long as these dark cloud cubs can be well, the clan will have more benefits waiting for Fellow Daoist in addition to the promised enlightenment on the shadow wall!"

Liu Qinghuan looked at him coldly and said: "The benefits of the Xuanyuan family are too hot, so I don't mind not wanting them! After seeing the screen wall, I'm leaving!"

The monk surnamed Wang's eyes flickered, and he grinned and said, "That's natural. Fellow Daoist Hu can leave whenever he wants."

It's just that no one present believed this. If today's questions were all nonsense, there might be a riot.

Liu Qinghuan secretly laughed: I'm afraid in a few days, you will be eager to ask me to leave!

With a look at Xiang Yunzheng, he turned around and told the Xuanyuan tribesman in charge of the spirit beasts to expand the animal enclosure and what they needed to pay attention to.

Yun Zheng stepped forward and said sternly: "My true king wants to stay here to take care of the spirit beasts. I also asked Senior Wang to take me to the arranged residence. I need to tidy up the house first."

When the monk surnamed Wang saw that he had nothing to do here, he readily agreed.

In the next few days, Liu Qinghuan fooled those people with improvised secrets of animal taming. Fortunately, the other party was worse than him, so he was able to talk them out.

As followers, Yunzheng and the four of them would follow in and out from time to time. Sometimes one of them would disappear for an hour or two without even noticing.

The Xuanyuan family didn't stop them from wandering around occasionally. They probably felt that they couldn't cause any trouble in their own territory, so they didn't watch them tightly.

After staying in the animal garden for another day, Liu Qinghuan returned to his temporary residence, summoned Jiang Nian'en and three others, and activated the magic circle set up by Yunzheng himself.

"In the past few days, you have been in and out of the city and mingled among the Xuanyuan people. Tell us about the information you have found."

Jiang Nianen stepped forward and replied: "Master, I have found out that there are currently eleven Yuanying monks in the Xuanyuan family in the mountain gate. Five of them are Xuanyuan's own family members, and the other six are guest officials. Among these people, Yuan There are two in the late stage of Yingying, the one with the highest cultivation level is Xuanyuan Zhen, who is called the Sixth Patriarch, there are three monks in the middle stage, and the rest are all in the early stage of Nascent Soul. As for the Jindan people, there are about..."

Eleven people?

Liu Qinghuan did the math and realized that this was not bad. After all, Sheshan Xuanyuan was not as good as the Wenshi Sect. The eleven Nascent Soul Guardians were already considered a large sect. After all, it was wartime now.

He was very satisfied. Jiang Nianen's ability to figure out these situations in such a short period of time was outstanding.

He is a disciple who doesn't talk much, but knows very well in his heart. He acts calmly and competently, and should be rewarded well later.

After Jiang Nianen finished speaking, another person reported.

"Senior Liu, in the past two days, I have deliberately approached areas that are not open to outsiders..."

After the three of them had finished speaking, Liu Qinghuan asked about the situation of the others who stayed outside, and then praised them a few times.

When Jiang Nianen and the other three received the praise, they all smiled happily and winked at each other.

After not seeing Yun Zheng for a long time, Liu Qinghuan asked, "Brother Yun hasn't come back yet?"

"Uncle Yun rarely shows up these days, and the disciples don't know his whereabouts."

Because he and Liu Qinghuan were close friends, Jiang Nianen always addressed Yun Zheng as his master and uncle.

"This guy! He's not afraid of being found out."

Liu Qinghuan was helpless, but he also knew that it was not easy to detect the opponent's formation and find flaws in such a short period of time, so he had no choice but to order: "When he comes back, let him act more carefully and not arouse others' suspicion."

…

Half a month passed in the blink of an eye. On this day, Liu Qinghuan received a note from the monk named Wang, saying that the screen wall was finally available and he could be taken there tomorrow.

"Master?"

Jiang Nianen saw that his expression suddenly became solemn, and he couldn't help but feel worried: "Is there something unexpected?"

Liu Qinghuan crushed the note in his hand: "The time is up, notify others."

Jiang Nianen's heart trembled, and he felt extremely heavy when he thought of what was about to happen.

After a while, Yunzheng came back, opened the door and asked, "Are we going to start?"

Liu Qinghuan nodded: "How have your results been these days?"

Yun Zheng laughed and whispered excitedly: "Very good! I have confirmed that the Xuanyuan family uses the Beiming Xuanwu Formation. This formation is extremely defensive. If it were to attack from the outside, with just a few of us, we would be able to defeat them all." We haven't been able to defeat it for half a year, but this doesn't hinder anything. On the contrary, it is beneficial to what we want to do. As long as the formation is sealed from the inside, even if there is a shout of death and a river of blood, the outside will not notice it. Half a point.”

He smiled proudly and said: "I have sneaked into the ground quietly and found the center of the formation. Although I was almost caught, it shouldn't be a problem to seal the formation for a period of time. It should be enough for us to do our job."

Liu Qinghuan pondered for a moment and said: "After the operation begins, I need you and Nian En to leave Xuanyuan's house temporarily and wait for someone outside the formation... no, half an hour should be enough."

Yunzheng was stunned, and jumped up in surprise: "What! Are you crazy? What do you want to do? Haven't you already planned it? Let's get those who stayed outside in before starting the operation!"

Liu Qinghuan said soothingly: "You will know when the time comes. It will definitely be very chaotic. You should stay hidden for the time being and don't come out. Take the opportunity to seize the other party's escape token..."

"No need to go to such trouble, I have found a small loophole in the Beiming Xuanwu Formation, which can open a small door."

Yun Zheng asked in surprise: "What on earth do you want to do? I will never agree to you staying here alone!"

Liu Qinghuan patted his shoulder: "I will give you the signal then. Remember, when I tell you to leave, you must leave immediately and don't look back! As soon as you go out, seal the formation, and then wait for half an hour before coming in."

The reason for this arrangement was because Liu Qinghuan was planning to use the Wangchuan Bell.

The number of people left in Sheshan Xuanyuan's clan was much larger than they expected, because the other party recruited a large number of guest officials. Although the number of Nascent Soul cultivators on both sides is equal, the other side has much more golden elixirs and foundation building than them, so their strength cannot be underestimated. How can we deal with twenty or so of them!

But the Wangchuan Bell is too powerful. When the bell rings, it will shake the soul and affect a large area. He couldn't find a place to test its power in advance, so he wasn't sure he could protect everyone's safety, so he might as well let them leave for the time being.

Liu Qinghuan was resolute and finally convinced Yun Zheng, but he also annoyed the other party.

Yun Zheng pointed at him bitterly, then walked away with worry in his sleeves.

Liu Qinghuan couldn't help but smile bitterly. It wasn't that he didn't want to tell the reason. It was just that as soon as the Wangchuan Bell came out, countless murderous evildoers descended. He was not sure whether Yunzheng would approve of his use of it.

Thinking of the bloodshed that he was about to be stained with, even Liu Qinghuan's determination could not help but waver. If you want to practice Taoism, the sin of killing is too serious, which will hinder your Taoist mind.

However, his expression quickly became firm. From the moment the Yin Yue Blood Realm invaded Yunmengze, the monks from the two realms were left to fight against each other. To be compassionate to the enemy is to be cruel to oneself!

"Fellow Daoist Hu, are you ready?"

The monk surnamed Wang came to the door on the second day and said with emotion: "You know, I don't even have the chance to understand the screen wall. Fellow Taoist, you must seize the opportunity."

Liu Qinghuan flicked the folds on the hem of his bodysuit and smiled: "That's natural, let's leave now? Is Zhaoyingbi on the mountain peak where the main branch of his family lives?"

"Yes." The monk surnamed Wang led the way: "We are about to go deep into the core area of ​​the Xuanyuan Family in Sheshan. Please follow me closely, fellow Taoist, and don't go the wrong way."

Before going out, they saw Jiang Nian'en and the other two standing silently, with unconcealed worries on their expressions, while Yun Zheng did not show up, probably still angry.

"Hey, what's going on?"

The monk surnamed Wang glanced at the three of them suspiciously, and Liu Qinghuan said: "Don't worry about them. They can't do any small things well, and they dare to quibble, so they were scolded by me."

He turned around and scolded: "Go away! I'll deal with you when I come back. Don't even think about the punishment you deserve!"

The monk surnamed Wang laughed and said: "Fellow Daoist Hu, you don't have to be so strict. They are still young and will inevitably do wrong things sometimes. They just need to be taught a lesson."

The two of them walked together, and soon they arrived at a heavily guarded mountain peak. They had probably been notified, and no one came forward to question them.

Liu Qinghuan was chatting wordlessly with the monk surnamed Wang while observing the surroundings calmly.

Compared with the side branches of the front mountain, the place where the direct descendants of the Xuanyuan family live is even more grand and majestic, with many palaces lined up in rows, hidden among the brocade-like flowers and deep trees.

Walking through a lush pine forest, the monk surnamed Wang pointed to a corner of the cornice exposed in front: "It's right ahead, Fellow Daoist Hu, I'll give it to you... uh!"

Liu Qinghuan gently supported the opponent's stiff body, whispered "I'm offended", and then raised his sword and dropped it!

Last night, the author had a stomachache all night long. He couldn't sleep the whole night, and it was burning like he had swallowed a fireball. I finally understood what a knife-like pain is. It’s so miserable, please comfort~~
