The Path to Immortality

The news that the Zhao family became the final winner made some cultivators who were still unaware of the matter more curious.

Under their questioning, more cultivators spoke up and told what they had heard.

"I heard that the insidious Zhao family hid a foundation-building cultivator and kept it a secret, which caught the two families off guard."

"What? The Zhao family has two foundation-building cultivators? No wonder!"

"Although the Zhao family won, even the head of the Ji family, Ji Chun, was killed, but the price paid was not small. The most important thing was that the head of the Shi family was not kept. After a few years, the head of the Shi family will recuperate and make a comeback. I am afraid that Luoyuefang will have another day of turmoil."

"Didn't the head of the Ji family escape? Why was he killed by the head of the Zhao family in the end?"

"You ask me, who should I ask? The two foundation-building cultivators chased for thousands of miles. Who could know what happened at that time? What's going on? But there is news that Zhao Qixing, the head of the Zhao family, was also seriously injured by the dying counterattack of the head of the Ji family. He will need to recuperate for at least a year or two. "

"I didn't expect that such a major event that happens once in a few hundred years could be witnessed by us. It should be clear now!"

"I only regret that I was not on the island at that time and could not see the battle between the four foundation-building monks with my own eyes. If I leave now, can I still see the traces left by their fight?"

"It's too late! The Zhao family is very efficient. A friend of mine just came back from the market yesterday and said that order has been initially restored and everything that should be cleaned up has been cleaned up."

"Alas, what a pity."

In the corner of the lobby.

After drinking the last cup of Longjing tea silently, Fang Ping left the silver on the table and got up to leave Tianxing Pavilion.

In the past two days, more and more news came from Luoyue Lake, and they were basically the same, indicating that the order in Luoyue Square has been basically restored.

As for the looting of the Ji family's secret library, the Zhao family may feel embarrassed and did not spread any rumors.

Fang Ping was confident enough about the secrecy of his attack.

From beginning to end, he was hiding in the Black Water Flag. Even Taoist Baihe only saw his appearance after he used the Thousand Illusion Bracelet to transform himself.

The whole process was clean and neat, leaving no trace.

Even if the Zhao family really wanted to investigate, they would most likely only find out about Taoist Baihe.

After all, outside the Ji family manor, Taoist Baihe led the way to break into the Ji family in front of many casual cultivators.

I'm afraid no one would believe that he didn't do it.

Taoist Baihe, the only one who knew the truth, was secretly killed by himself after escaping from Luoyuefang, so there was no evidence.

Even if we put aside the evidence and investigate from the perspective of suspicion, Fang Ping was only an eighth-level Qi training cultivator on the surface, and it seemed that he was not capable of doing such a big thing.

It was for this reason that Fang Ping made the judgment that he had not been exposed to the Zhao family's vision from beginning to end on the night of the turmoil in Luoyuefang.

Now that the situation is stable, the right time to return to Luoyuefang has come!

Coming out of the Tianxing Pavilion, he threw out the Shadow Chaser Sword, and his figure quickly disappeared into the air.

………

Inside Luoyuefang.

Returning to the old place, Fang Ping looked at the streets in front of him, which had basically returned to calm, but were unusually deserted, and could not help but sigh slightly.

In the battle that night and the subsequent days of search and arrest, the entire market was severely damaged, and damaged houses and streets could be seen everywhere.

Even after many days, the preliminary cleaning had been done, and broken bricks and tiles could still be seen in some inconspicuous corners.

Fortunately, I don’t know if it was good luck or the Zhao family disciples had been warned in advance, but the Luoyun Dan Pavilion, located in the center of the battle, was not damaged much.

It’s a pity that it didn’t escape the robbery of the robbery cultivator that night.

However, Fang Ping had already made preparations when he went out to avoid the storm.

All the materials and elixirs of some value had been properly collected. Even if all the remaining elixirs in the Dan Pavilion were looted, the loss would be at most one or two hundred spirit stones.

For Fang Ping now, this loss is not a big deal.

Compared with his gains that night, it is a drop in the bucket!

As if they had noticed Fang Ping's appearance, two Zhao family disciples who were patrolling nearby came up to greet him and took the initiative to say, "Hello, Manager Fang!"

"Why are you two here?" Fang Ping pretended to be puzzled.

One of the Zhao family disciples smiled and said, "We are here to guard the Luoyun Pill Pavilion in the name of the master. Now that Manager Fang has returned safely, we can go back and report."

Fang Ping nodded slightly: "Thank you, Master Zhao, for your kindness. I appreciate it."

After the two left, Fang Ping turned around and returned to the Luoyun Pill Pavilion.

After an inspection, he had a more accurate estimate of the loss of the Pill Pavilion this time.

The ordinary pills and spiritual herbs that were robbed were nothing, and the damaged furniture and furnishings were not worth mentioning. On the contrary, the formation and prohibition that was broken by the robbers and guarding the Pill Pavilion needed to be repaired.

In Luoyuefang, it is not cheap to ask a formation cultivator to help.

With Fang Ping's attainments in formation, it is naturally no problem to repair this restriction, but this move may expose his formation skills.

More importantly: Dan Pavilion is protected by the market. Now that it has suffered losses and is attacked by robbery cultivators, shouldn't the market bear the cost of repairs?

If it were other shops, they might not have the courage to negotiate with the new owner of the market.

But Fang Ping would not care about this.

"And, if I am right, maybe I don't need to take the initiative to ask..."

He thought to himself.

………

With the help of convenient magic, after just a cup of tea, Luoyun Dan Pavilion, which was looted by robbery cultivators, was initially restored to tidiness.

Just as Fang Ping was selecting some common elixirs from his storage bag to replenish the elixir pavilion, a steward of the Zhao family, who was in the late stage of Qi training and still had a little evil spirit on him, came to visit him.

"I am Zhao Chang, and I am here on the orders of the patriarch to deliver the gift that the patriarch promised to Fang Daoyou."

After stating his purpose, Zhao Chang handed over two boxes.

Fang Ping was not polite and opened the box in front of him to confirm the items inside. They were exactly the Xuanyuan fruit and Tianling flower that Zhao Qixing had promised.

Seeing that Fang Ping was very satisfied with the gift, although Zhao Chang was a little puzzled about the patriarch's kindness to this person, he still took out another bag of spirit stones as instructed and pushed it to Fang Ping.

"Although our Zhao family had taken every precaution when we were clearing up the Ji family, we were still unable to prevent the robbery repairs, which caused damage to Fellow Daoist Fang's Dan Pavilion. The head of the family is very sorry for this, and specially asked me to offer 500 spirit stones to compensate for Fellow Daoist's losses."

"In addition, our Zhao family will arrange for formation repairs to come to help Fellow Daoist Fang repair the damaged restrictions of Luoyun Dan Pavilion later, please don't worry!"

Five hundred spirit stones?

Fang Ping nodded, it seems that the head of the Zhao family is really good at doing things.

Perhaps, the other party hopes that when he conveys the message to Luoyang Sect, he will say a few good words for the Zhao family?

Although the emperor is far away here, Luoyang Sect will not easily interfere, but this is just unnecessary, not that Luoyang Sect does not have the ability.

Give some benefits to win over Fang Ping. He doesn't even need to help say a few good words. As long as the position is slightly biased towards the Zhao family, it is enough for Luoyang Sect to maintain its consistent attitude and acquiesce in the fact that the Zhao family takes over Luoyuefang.
