The Path to Immortality

Seeing that Fang Ping still refused, Ji Changqing's face finally turned ugly.

He snorted coldly and said: "The conditions of our Ji family are generous enough. Do you really not want to think about it, fellow Daoist Fang? Do you think we must be enemies of my Ji family?"

However, who is behind Fang Ping? Are you afraid of the threat from a mere elder of a small foundation-building family?

He chuckled, his aura rising, and the top-grade magical weapon Golden Dragon Sword floated in front of him. The golden dragon shadow faintly let out a breathtaking dragon roar. He could kill this person with just one thought.

He said without any sign of weakness: "Are you the enemy of the Ji family? You, Ji Changqing, are living your age and are old and confused, do you deserve to say this? It just so happens that the foundation-building monks of Luoyang Sect will come to Luoyuefang to review the accounts in the near future. Do you dare to say what you said before in front of my Uncle Foundation Architect?"

Luoyang Sect!

The five golden elixir sects, which have been established for more than two thousand years, are very famous in the world of immortality in Liang Kingdom.

Hearing Fang Ping announce this name, Elder Ji's expression changed slightly, and then he realized what he had just said.

He was used to being rampant in Luoyuefang, and he had deliberately restrained himself before, but it was nothing. When he was just angry, he subconsciously treated Fang Ping with the same attitude as he treated ordinary casual cultivators.

But he completely forgot that the person in front of him was not a local casual cultivator, but someone with a big backer!

"...I made a mistake."

Although he was reluctant in his heart, Ji Changqing still did not dare to offend the reputation of Jindan Sect and apologized obediently.

But when it came to this matter, Ji Changqing did not expect Fang Ping to help them anymore, so he could only say reluctantly: "Fellow Daoist Fang is a disciple of the Immortal Sect. He has his own considerations and is unwilling to wade into this muddy water. I understand. But I hope Fellow Daoist Fang can stick to this attitude and don't leak the conversation between you and me, especially if you don't vent it to the Zhao family. Otherwise, I, the Ji family, are not soft persimmons."

The Golden Pill Ancestor of Luoyang Sect is certainly terrifying, but he is far away.

And the Ji family is in charge of this island, and the threat from the foundation-building monk, the head of the Ji family, is right in front of us!

Fang Ping heard Ji Changqing's last weak threat, but since he had no intention of cooperating with the Ji family, he naturally would not contact the Zhao family again.

Therefore, the guarantee was made happily.

"Just having a guarantee is not enough. Can Fellow Daoist Fang swear an oath with his Taoist heart?"

Ji Changqing said with a reluctant attitude.

He didn't know that Fang Ping only had the qualifications for the Four Spiritual Roots. Judging from the surface, it was undoubtedly possible for an inner sect disciple at the eighth level of Qi training to build a foundation.

In this case, the binding force of the Daoxin Oath is still quite high.

"You want me to swear an oath of truth?"

Fang Ping's face suddenly darkened. He even omitted the honorific title "Mr. Ji" and raised his eyebrows angrily: "Your Excellency, you are overstepping your bounds!"

I really thought that as an inner disciple, he was a vegetarian!

If he dared to say another word, Fang Ping would dare to kill the Ji family elder now.

The worst case scenario is running away overnight.

One is a small family far away from the edge of the sphere of influence, and the other is his own inner sect disciple. Will the sect make things difficult and harshly blame its own disciples because Fang Ping killed a member of the other party's qi-training cultivator clan?

Besides, it’s not like Fang Ping doesn’t have connections.

After returning home, I asked Elder Wu and Taoist Yun Yi to help clear the way. As long as I am willing to smash the spirit stone, big things can be reduced to trivial matters!

Seeing that Fang Ping was furious and the power of the high-grade magic weapon Golden Dragon Sword was astonishing, Ji Changqing had no choice but not to dare to force Fang Ping. He could only look at him deeply and rush out the door without saying a word.

Since Fang Ping couldn't be made to swear a Taoist oath, he had to use other means to make up for it.

While leaving, Ji Changqing had already thought of a remedial strategy. After returning, he arranged for manpower to secretly monitor Luoyundan Pavilion. Then, by roping in the Zhao family's insiders, double insurance was provided, just in case.

Watching the Ji family elder disappear into the darkness, Fang Ping put away the Golden Dragon Sword. The half-true and half-false anger on his face had long since subsided.

He returned to his study and thought about the matter again.

Judging from Ji Changqing's impatient attitude, the conflict between the Ji and Shi families and the Zhao family has obviously become so acute that the Ji family can't help but strike first, and even plans to support themselves. On the body of a disciple of the Luoyang Sect.

"Luoyuefang is about to usher in a big chaos!"

Looking at the peaceful city outside, Fang Ping couldn't help but sigh softly.

Unexpectedly, even if he hid in a small place like Luoyue Valley, he would still not be able to live in peace.

Obviously, as long as the conflict breaks out a year later, it will have nothing to do with him, but it just happened to happen at this time.

Perhaps, he could really consider leaving Luoyuefang for a short period of time to avoid the limelight, so as not to be affected by the foundation-building war that would soon follow.

………

the next day.

The weather in Luoyue Lake is gloomy.

Because he was considering going out to avoid risks, Fang Ping got up early in the morning and began to make some arrangements for the staff in Dan Pavilion.

Fortunately, the all-out war between the three major foundation-building families does not break out in a hurry, and there are more or less signs.

At least for now, the Ji family and the Shi family have no signs of mobilizing resources or gathering manpower on a large scale.

No matter how urgent it is, I still have at least half a month.

"Well, to be on the safe side, it's definitely better to run away as early as possible. As for the sect's business, it won't be too late for a month or two anyway."

Just when Fang Ping secretly made up his mind to leave tonight, a non-remarkable casual cultivator slowly walked into the Dan Pavilion from outside.

With the same excuse that he had a business to discuss, this casual cultivator who looked like he was tired of traveling entered the private room with Fang Ping.

The soundproofing ban had just been opened when this casual cultivator lifted the disguise spell and revealed his true form.

The pressure from the foundation-building cultivator flashed by, causing Fang Ping's face to change greatly.

"The head of the Zhao family? Zhao Qixing?"

Although he had never seen this person in the five years since he came to Luoyuefang, he still had some information about the physical appearance of the three original foundation-building cultivators on the island.

At this moment, he took a quick look and confirmed the other party's identity.

At that moment, he could still force himself to remain calm on the surface, but in fact, his mind was racing, and he didn't know how many thoughts he had thought about.

Ji Changqing had just come to the door secretly last night, and only one night had passed, and this foundation-building cultivator, the current head of the Zhao family, came to the door?

Was it a coincidence?

Or did the Ji family leak the news, and this foundation-building cultivator came to ask for punishment?

"Friend Fang, don't you have anything to say to me?"

Zhao Qixing stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the furnishings in the private room leisurely, and asked with a smile.

This behavior seemed as if he was the owner of the place and Fang Ping was a guest.

Seeing his tone and expression, it seemed that he was not here to call for punishment, Fang Ping made up his mind.

He pretended to be ignorant and greeted: "I didn't expect that the head of the Zhao family would come to visit us, which made my Luoyun Dan Pavilion glorious. I am sorry for not welcoming you in person, please forgive me."

After a few simple compliments, he asked in confusion: "I don't understand what you asked before, did you want to ask about some alchemy theory?"

Seeing that Fang Ping really didn't seem to know what he was here for, Zhao Qixing looked at him with interest: "Friend Fang is very calm, and he really deserves to be a disciple of the immortal sect. Just for this kind of temperament, I was a little inferior to him in the past."
