Chapter 143: Moonlit Night Thoughts

The two immortals came and went in a hurry. Everything returned to calm.

Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu stood on the sea, looking at each other in silence.

They seemed to have achieved their goal, but it didn't seem so satisfactory. After all, Wu Guangbi didn't die, and Li Tianzhen didn't know where he ran to.

It can only be said that it was not satisfactory, almost satisfactory. At least the minimum goal was achieved, which severely damaged Wu Guangbi and prevented him from coming out to mess with Qi Xuansu in a short time. It also gave Wu Guangbi a warning that blocking Qi Xuansu's way would cost a price. Before taking action next time, he should weigh whether he can bear this price.

After tonight, this Wu Daoshou should learn to think twice before acting.

Madam Bai did not stay for too long and returned directly to the Ghost Kingdom Cave Heaven.

The two returned to Longlin Island. At this time, Longlin Island was in a mess. Those guards took advantage of the chaos to flee, and some people died in the aftermath of the fight between the two sides.

Because the false cultivation gained by the "Xirui Sutra" was dissipating, the two returned to the infinite stage again.

However, this was the first time that the two used the "Xirui Sutra" in a short period of time, so the backlash was not great and was still within the tolerable range.

Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu came to the beach side by side.

The entire Dragon Scale Island is a good place for "recuperation", so there are still some things like lounge chairs on the beach, and they were spared. The two found two lounge chairs side by side, and did not lie down, but sat down face to face.

"I always feel like I've been working in vain." Qi Xuansu sighed, "I had a falling out with Grandmaster Jin Gong, but got such a mediocre result."

Zhang Yuelu was more optimistic: "Look at the bright side. After what happened tonight, there is almost no resistance from the 'Heavenly Court'. Grandmaster Jin Gong is powerful, but he is suppressed by Grand Master Jiang. Wu Guangbi is seriously injured and can't make trouble for a while. As for Liu Gui, he will definitely be very satisfied with this cooperation."

"By the way, since you mentioned Liu Gui, we can talk about it." Qi Xuansu also became more energetic. "To deal with the 'Heavenly Court', we can't force it, we have to divide them. Wu Guangbi, a pseudo-immortal, is willing to follow Li Changge and Li Tianzhen. He must have the support of the Li family. Then Liu Gui, who is opposed to Wu Guangbi, can no longer get close to the Li family. In order to compete with Wu Guangbi, Liu Gui must seek external aid. We can be his external aid. This This cooperation has laid a good foundation. At least we have shown Liu Gui enough strength to make him believe that we have strong capital to support him and he will not make things difficult for us. Without the "Heavenly Court" to disrupt the situation, it will be much easier to take over the Nanyang United Trading Company. "

Zhang Yuelu is not a pedantic person. She has long understood that there is no absolute justice, and there is no day to succeed if she fights alone. She must unite all the forces that can be united, so she does not oppose Qi Xuansu's proposal: "It is not easy for us to openly support Liu Gui, but I can let Yuheng Star Lord come forward to continue to contact Liu Gui."

Qi Xuansu nodded: "You are right, we don't have to come forward, as long as Liu Gui knows that when necessary, Zhengyi Dao and Quanzhen Dao can support him, and there can be more such cooperation in the future. "

Since Taiping Dao has chosen the "Heavenly Court" model instead of the Qingping Society and Ziguang Society, this situation is inevitable. When there are many people, their minds are mixed, and they are easy to be infiltrated. The Taoist sect is not immune, let alone the "Heavenly Court". The influence of Qingping Society and Ziguang Society is smaller, but they are also more secretive and not easy to be infiltrated. They have their own strengths.

After discussing some details, the two gradually stopped talking.

After the various strange phenomena disappeared, the moon was bright and the stars were sparse, with only the sound of waves, which was a different mood.

The atmosphere between the two gradually became ambiguous.

However, the two were quasi-companions, so there was nothing to be embarrassed about.

Qi Xuansu said softly: "Qingxiao, it seems that we haven't been alone like this for a long time."

"It's been a while." Zhang Yuelu said, "I've been very busy, going to Fenglin Island, coming to Borneo, when I'm free you're not free, when you're free I'm not free."

Qi Xuansu sighed: "That's right, running around all the time. If you think about it carefully, we are not as good as Li Tianzhen in enjoying life. He knows how to take a break from his busy schedule and live in such a good place for a while. We treat the signing room as our home all day long, just like being possessed by a demon."

Zhang Yuelu said: "Power makes people obsessed. The real people of Jinque inspire you so much. The third rank, the second rank, the second seat, the first seat, one wave after another, let your desires pile up layer by layer, you can only keep pursuing greater power and pursuing one peak after another, that's it."

Qi Xuansu did not refute.

The taste of power is indeed wonderful, and it even makes him forget other desires.

In the past, he liked money and would be amazed when he saw beautiful women. Now he has no desires, regards money as dirt, and sees women as skeletons. Has his consciousness improved suddenly? Of course not, it's just that the greater desires cover up other desires.

Master Qi Haoran once told Qi Xuansu that generally speaking, men will pursue three things, in order of difficulty, from difficult to easy, namely: power, strength, and women.

Among them, the most irresistible thing for men is power.

Maybe someone will say that it should be strength.

In fact, it is not the case. The fundamental reason for many people to gain strength is to seize power.

If you have power but don't need power, it's actually quite meaningless. It's like a person who possesses the immortal cultivation level and then lives in seclusion all day long, treating everyone equally and not being superior to others. For most people, For humans, this kind of life is very boring and not desirable. If you blindly pursue power without understanding or disdain the realization of power, you will become a martial arts idiot.

What more people like is that the stars are holding the moon, and if you say a word, the people below will speculate in various ways. If you express your opinion casually, the people below will be frightened. Even as soon as he shows up, there are countless compliments, exclamations, praises, as well as all kinds of flattery, servility, etc.

Not to mention, with a single order, the world and the world can be changed to realize one's own ambitions.

The essence of power is to control others.

And it’s better to let others be controlled willingly.

This is something that power cannot directly obtain.

Strength is a shortcut and means to obtain power, but it cannot be equated with power.

Because of this, power is so fascinating. It can be embodied in many things, such as the country, the world, ambitions, or the identity of a great leader, pope, emperor, etc.

This is incomparable to women and money.

In other words, having power also possesses these.

In the same way, gaining power is also the most difficult. ..

Throughout the ages, countless people have died in the pursuit of power, and only a handful of people can reach the top. Now Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu are also walking on this road. No matter what they want to do after they get the power, whether it is to save the world, whether it is to bring trouble to the world, whether it is to solve the problem of the common people, or whether they are seeking pleasure, in short, they have to get rid of it first. To gain power is also to pursue power.

That's why they are so busy.

Qi Xuansu was a little distracted for a moment. Will he get lost on this road?

Zhang Yuelu looked at him quietly.

No words were spoken.

After a moment, Qi Xuansu reached out and took Zhang Yuelu's hand.

He hadn't held Zhang Yuelu's hand like this for a long time. It wasn't soft and boneless, but just a little cold.

Qi Xuansu said softly: "I should think about it carefully. Think about the relationship between us, think about our future, think about our future path. Maybe, after the matter in Borneo comes to an end, Shall we go back to Yunjin Mountain again?”

Zhang Yuelu asked knowingly: "What are you going back for?"

Since Zhang Yuelu knew what he was asking, Qi Xuansu would not say it directly, but deliberately said: "If you don't return wealth and honor, you will be like walking at night in brocade clothes. Now that I have become the youngest second-grade Taiyi Taoist priest in the Taoist sect, of course I have to go back and shock them. Those who looked down on me at the time knew what it meant: thirty years in Hedong and thirty years in Hexi. Don’t bully young people into poverty.”

Speaking of this, Qi Xuansu paused deliberately, glanced at Zhang Yuelu, and said teasingly: "Especially your mother, you have to let her see it."

Zhang Yuelu was not angry, and smiled slightly: "You are not our Zhang family, so what kind of return of wealth do you think you have?"

Qi Xuansu pretended to be surprised and said: "Am I not the Zhang family's son-in-law? A son-in-law is half a son, so this doesn't count?"

"Fuck you." Zhang Yuelu hit him lightly, but Qi Xuansu grabbed his wrist.

Zhang Yuelu did not struggle and asked seriously: "Do you really want to go?"

"Is it still fake?" Qi Xuansu gave an affirmative answer.

As they talked, the distance between the two became closer and closer.

Just when Qi Xuansu was about to take further action, a sudden voice broke the mood: "So you are here! Make it easy for me to find you."

Qi Xuansu and Zhang Yuelu separated as if they were electrocuted, and subconsciously arranged their clothes.

I saw Xiao Yin running this way, with a staggering figure following behind him.

Qi Xuansu was very unhappy that his good things were interrupted. He put on a straight face and was about to teach Xiao Yin a lesson, but when he saw the figure behind Xiao Yin, all his anger was thrown away.

Li Tianzhen.

What does it mean to get there without any effort at all? That's it.

Qi Xuansu was still disappointed that Li Tianzhen had been let go just now, but now he felt a sense of joy at having lost something.

No one expected that Xiao Yin would catch Li Tianzhen.

Good girl! Good girl.

If you are serious about doing things, those Taoist priests and spiritual officials are just like trash compared to Xiao Yin.

Zhang Yuelu also recognized Li Tianzhen and laughed dumbly.

At this time, Young Master Li was in such a state of embarrassment, his hands were tied, a ghost-drawing talisman was pasted on his forehead, and an iron chain was tied around his neck, and the other end of the chain was in Xiao Yin's hand.

Xiao Yin ran happily in front, while Li Tianzhen could only follow in confusion.

The majestic Mr. Li back then ended up in this situation today.
