Chapter 681 The Village Meeting Ends, Wen Changying's Tearful Request (4k, Please Subscribe)
"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Wei."
Gong Shulan knew how much Wei Tu's words had benefited her and how much favor he had given her. She had a beautiful face and immediately stood up, bowed her hands and expressed her gratitude to Wei Tu.
"I will definitely live up to the expectations of my Taoist friends."
She pondered for a while and then said this sentence.
"Fairy Gong, just do your best."
Wei Tu smiled and nodded.
Fifth-level spiritual objects have a price but no market. If he does not encourage people with heavy rewards, his "agents" such as Gong Shulan in the Luoxia Secret Territory will not pay attention to his matter and wait until the next time they buy it. After obtaining a quota of your own, you can then enter the secret realm to collect treasures.
Without benefits, no matter how good the nostalgia is, it will be worn away again and again over time.
This principle is irrefutable, whether it is up or down.
…
"In addition to Fairy Gong, Wei also has another matter, brother Lao Fu and fourth brother..."
After arranging Gong Shulan, Wei Tu looked at the remaining two people, Fu Zhizhou and Fu Dalu.
Just like what Gong Shulan said fifty years ago, although he is a high-ranking god-incarnation venerable, it does not mean that they are all useless.
After saying this, Wei Tu turned his hand and took out two jade slips and handed them to Fu Zhizhou and Fu Dalu respectively.
The thing inside this jade slip is not something else, it is the prescription of Jiangyundan.
It records the various elixirs he needs to refine Jiangyundan.
Collecting elixirs.
For Fu Zhizhou and Fu Dalu, it was just a matter of convenience. After a few glances, they nodded and agreed to the task.
"We have finished talking about the trouble that Mr. Wei needs from you. If you have anything that you want to trouble Mr. Wei, please feel free to speak up."
Wei Tu did not really regard Gong Shulan and others as his subordinates. After solving his "needs", he asked about the "needs" of Gong Shulan and others.
Let’s not talk about Fu Zhizhou.
Gong Shulan and Fu Dalu traveled all the way from the Central Region to Kuntian Immortal City, not just to admire his demeanor as a god-incarnation.
"I want a few of the spirit-binding talisman and spirit-transforming talisman drawn by Fellow Daoist Wei. And... I want to trouble Fellow Daoist Wei to refine the elixir myself..."
"The poor monk also wants to ask Venerable Wei to open a furnace to make elixirs..."
The two of them said it bluntly without any hesitation.
It is not that there are no alchemists and talisman masters in the Central Region, but there are not many alchemists and talisman masters who are as skilled and trustworthy as Wei Tu.
As for Fu Zhizhou, there is no need.
After all, his realm has reached the realm of quasi-god transformation. If he wants to go further, he can only search for opportunities to break through to the realm of god transformation.
And the opportunity to become a god...
Wei Tu didn't have much on him either.
Even if he is rich, it is not something he can trade with his current net worth.
At this moment.
This hometown reunion, which takes place once every 50 years, has also come to an end.
Fu Zhizhou resigned, left Kuntian Fairy City, and secretly returned to the Sanxi League in the north.
Gong Shulan and Fu Dalu followed Wei Tu to the temporary group Lindong Mansion, waiting for Wei Tu to refine elixirs and draw spiritual talismans for them.
Half a month later.
Fu Dalu left and embarked on the road back to Zhongyu Shengfo Temple.
Gong Shulan chose to stay and wait for the next opening of Luoxia Secret Realm.
The Luoxia Secret Realm is opened once every fifty years.
The next time it opens will be seventeen years later.
However, just when Wei Tu thought that there would be nothing to do in the past seventeen years and he could practice with peace of mind, a "trouble" came to Wei Tu's head.
"Dingling Sect... still want a place in the secret realm next time?"
A few years later.
Taizhen Sect, Fuyun Cave.
Wei Tu, who was feeling the "floating clouds of law", frowned slightly after seeing the letter handed over by Wen Changying.
He is a "marginal figure" among the elders of the Nine Kingdoms Alliance's Inner Palace, so there are only two places to enter the Luoxia Secret Realm.
Two places.
One promised Master Deng in exchange for the favor of Master Han in his hands.
He promised Head Deng that he would be his agent in the Luoxia Secret Territory at least twice.
The other one was promised to Gong Shulan.
Because Gong Shulan's tyrannical strength at the same level is enough to ensure that he will gain a lot in the Luoxia Secret Realm.
Therefore, at this moment, he did not have any spare secret realm quota, which was allocated to the Dingling Sect like last time.
However, Wei Tu didn't take it seriously at first.
He summoned Niu Xinling, who was delivering the letter, and asked him to return to his clan to deliver a message on his behalf, saying that his quota for this term was already used by someone else.
But until-
Lu Xiqing came to see him in person.
"The old man is about to live for a long time, and he wants to make a last-ditch effort for the sect before he dies. I also ask Alchemist Wen to fulfill this dying wish of the old man..."
In the temporary cave, Lu Xiqing, who had gray hair, dark skin, and age spots, bowed deeply to Wei Tu and said these words of entreaty.
The words fell.
Wei Tu's face looked slightly ugly.
He did not expect that his goodwill in granting a quota to Dingling Zong would turn into Lu Xiqing's further push.
He had already declined Wen Changying.
Now, when Lu Xiqing comes back and says this sentence again, it is inevitable that he will be suspected of moral kidnapping.
"Mrs. Lu, I don't know about this matter...have you discussed it with Sister Chang Ying?"
Wei Tu took a deep look at Lu Xiqing and asked.
Decades ago, he came to the Southern Region of Great Yan and settled in the Dingling Sect. Wen Changying recruited him as a guest minister. Although it was mutual benefit, there was also some kindness to hide his identity.
He didn't want to make it too ugly with Wen Changying.
"Coming here this time is out of Lu's personal wishes and has nothing to do with the sect master." Lu Xiqing shook her head and said in a vicissitudes of voice.
Hearing this, Wei Tu's expression softened slightly.
If this matter was not the Dingling Sect's joint calculation against him, but just Lu Xiqing's personal wish, then there was still some room for relaxation between him and the Dingling Sect.
Although Lu Xiqing came to him to ask for a quota, although the process was not clean, his motive seemed to be very simple, which was to burn himself to make profits for the sect.
Putting it into perspective, if he were Lu Xiqing, he might have acted in a way that tarnished his own reputation before his death and paved the way for future generations of monks.
Without it, compared to the loss of reputation, the huge profits in front of him are really too tempting.
But the crux of the matter is.
He is not!
Why should he put himself in someone else's shoes?
Lu Xiqing is willing to be a candle and devote himself silently, so he can come over. Is he disgusted by relying on his old age and betraying him?
"Since it's not Sect Leader Wen's intention, then please ask Mrs. Lu to return to the sect." Wei Tu's voice turned cold.
Hearing this, Lu Xiqing, who had seen that Wei Tu's expression had softened earlier, was suddenly startled, as if he had fallen into an ice cellar.
Before he came, he had thought that Wei Tu might reject him, because he didn't have any kindness or much friendship with Wei Tu...
But he believes that this is only a small probability event.
After all, Wei Tu still needs the power of the Dingling Sect to conceal his identity. As long as it does not violate his core interests, he will tolerate his offensive behavior and compromise.
I never thought that Wei Tu would reject him so simply and decisively.
"Master Wen, can you be accommodating? Just like our sect, you are as accommodating as before and agree to let you join our sect and become the guest elder."
Lu Xiqing took a deep breath and used the bargaining chip that Wei Tu's identity was unclear to make a soft threat.
Last time, with the help of Wei Tu, he gained a lot in the secret territory of Luoxia. If he can gain more this time, he might be able to achieve quasi-deity transformation.
By then, even if Wei Tu hates him again, he will not be afraid of Wei Tu with the same level of cultivation.
The Dingling Sect will not be strong if he relies blindly on others. Only after he becomes a quasi-god can the Dingling Sect be truly powerful.
For this reason, he did not hesitate to offend Wei Tu on behalf of the Dingling Sect.
"Does Sect Leader Wen know about this?"
Wei Tu didn't care about this soft threat. His suspicious identity was not big news in the Nine Nations Alliance. As long as Feng Yuan didn't guess it, he was the "Wei Tu" who killed Ding Lezheng. What he really cares about is from what angle he should look at Wen Changying and the Dingling Sect after this incident.
"I don't know."
Lu Xiqing shook her head decisively.
He is not that stupid to drag the entire Dingling Sect into the water with him.
He alone bears the responsibility for the crime.
"In that case, Wen will find a spot for you."
Wei Tu smiled faintly, but agreed to Lu Xiqing's request.
"It's just that after entering Luoxia Secret Realm, Mrs. Lu should also know that life and death are determined by fate."
He glanced at Lu Xiqing and added this sentence in an indifferent tone.
"This..." Lu Xiqing couldn't help but change his expression when he heard this. How could he not understand that this was Wei Tu's naked threat to him.
——If you are destined to go in, if you are not destined to go out!
Even though he didn't think that Wei Tu could kill him with the help of others in the secret territory of Luoxia, he knew that if Wei Tu insisted on making trouble for him, he would definitely not be able to get any favors from him.
He was well aware of the power of those quasi-fifth-level talismans that Wei Tu had asked him to save his life before.
The atmosphere instantly cooled down.
Lu Xiqing was hesitating whether to give in or not.
But at this moment, he had offended Wei Tu and had a certain amount of sunk costs. If he left in such a dejected manner, he would not only lose his face, but also make the descendants of the sect complain that he had ruined the relationship between Dingling Sect and Wei Tu. relationship between.
It belongs to the two ends of the world.
He has not yet gained the advantage of entering the Luoxia Secret Realm.
But at this moment, Wen Changying's rather urgent call came from outside the cave door.
His mind moved, and he immediately had an idea.
"This is the voice of Sect Leader Wen. Please ask Alchemist Wen to open the door." Lu Xiqing bowed his hands and regarded Wen Changying's arrival as an opportunity to break the deadlock between himself and Wei Tu.
In this regard, Wei Tu has nothing to do.
He also wanted to hear what Wen Changying had to say.
However, when Wen Changying walked into the living room of the Dongfu, he noticed that her body visibly stiffened a few times when she looked into Lu Xiqing's eyes.
…
"Senior Wen, I didn't know at first... Taishang Lu came to Taizhen Sect without permission to pay respects to senior. After hearing the report from his disciples, he hurried here."
Wen Changying held the junior ceremony and stopped calling Wei Tu "Brother Qi", and said with an apologetic expression.
Wei Tu nodded, not thinking that Wen Changying was faking it.
His father-in-law, Lu Xiqing, originally supported him as the leader of the clan.
In front of Lu Xiqing, Wen Changying was more of a daughter-in-law than the head of the Dingling Sect.
For Wen Changying, as long as he is here, the number of places in the secret realm can be obtained slowly, and there is no need to rush.
If you refuse politely this time, there will be another one.
Only Lu Xiqing, because of Shouyuan, really couldn't wait.
Worthy of this moment——
After seeing Lu Xiqing's stubbornness about the place in the secret realm, he had already seen that this person had become a "longevity slave", but Lu Xiqing wore an extra moral cloak of seeking the welfare of the sect's descendants.
Speaking of which, it might be his fault.
It was he who gave Lu Xiqing further hope, and then abruptly extinguished this hope.
If he had not given Lu Xiqing a place to enter the secret realm at the beginning, Lu Xiqing might still be in seclusion in the cave and would not come out to cause trouble at all.
But in this regard, Wei Tu obviously would not sympathize with Lu Xiqing.
"This matter has nothing to do with Sister Chang Ying. Wen knows it and will not blame the Dingling Sect too much."
Wei Tu waved his hand, indicating that he understood the whole story and Wen Changying did not need to say any more.
"It's just..." Wen Changying didn't shut up, but looked at Wei Tu with an expression of embarrassment, "It's just... Mrs. Lu is my disciple after all. If Senior Wen can, please forgive Mrs. Lu. "
The words fell.
Lu Xiqing secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
With Wen Changying speaking for him, he was just asking for a place in the secret realm that was not very important to Wei Tu. I thought Wei Tu would not make it difficult for Wen Changying.
"This is a secret matter. Master Wen and the sect leader are brothers and sisters in the clan, so please talk in private. I am in front of you two... after all, I am more of an eyesore."
Lu Xiqing groaned and said.
After hearing this, Wei Tu, who was about to persuade Wen Changying not to disrupt the situation, couldn't help but frown slightly, wondering what Lu Xiqing meant by asking him to talk to Wen Changying in private.
However, this was exactly what he wanted to say. After all, there were some things that were really hard to say in front of Lu Xiqing, the "victim".
He waved his sleeves and robe, cast a spell to open the inner hall of the cave, and motioned for Wen Changying to follow him inside to talk.
only--
As soon as he entered the inner hall of the cave, he saw Wen Changying directly raised his hand and cracked his coat, revealing his snow-white bellyband and a large area of white upper body.
"I have a filthy body, please enjoy it, Senior Wen!"
Wen Changying had tears streaming down her cheeks and bowed down.
But because of her quick movements, her green hair, which was bound by a jade hairpin, spread out like a waterfall, falling on her snow-like cold face and fair and delicate collarbones.
"Sister Changying, what is this?"
Seeing this, it was not difficult for Wei Tu to guess the meaning of the secret message that Lu Xiqing secretly transmitted to Wen Changying through the sound transmission method just now.
It was nothing more than forcing Wen Changying, his daughter-in-law, to serve him in order to reduce the ill will towards him.
"If Senior Wen refuses, please take action and kill this old thief!"
Wen Changying had tears on her face, and felt slightly happy after seeing Wei Tu refusing to attack him.
Immediately afterwards, a murderous intent showed on her face, and she paid her respects to Wei Tu again.
Previously, she had admired her father-in-law Lu Xiqing, believing that he would sacrifice everything for the sake of the sect, even risking his own life...
It was also because he was worried that she would have an "illicit affair" with Wei Tu and feel sorry for her late husband, so in order to remind her, he was willing to lock himself in the cave to avoid visitors.
But I didn't expect that this person would actually think about his own future today and sent a message asking her to apologize to Wei Tu. If things couldn't be done... let her sacrifice her life to serve.
By now, she understood everything.
This old thief does not love his dead son, or in other words, he loves himself more than his dead son.
However, because of his limited lifespan, he acted as selflessly as before.
