Chapter 226 Awakening
"The second-level alchemy master is missing?"
Wang Hao was shocked when he heard this.
Immediately, he immediately remembered the news he heard last time when he was in Chongzifang City, a gathering place for casual cultivators.
he asked quickly.
"When did it happen?"
"Didn't it say that the Baidan Conference was held near Lingbi City recently?"
"Just the day after the Baidan Conference was held, these alchemists disappeared..."
Wen Yong With a solemn expression, he expressed his guess:
"I suspect that it was probably someone from the three major sects."
Wang Hao thought for a moment, nodded, and agreed with Wen Yong's guess.
In fact, that's what he thought the first time he heard the news.
Baiyunping is located at the intersection of the three major sects. There is almost no other possibility to kidnap these alchemy masters under the noses of the three major sects.
"But...why did they do this?"
Wang Yan couldn't help but wonder.
The three major sects do have this ability, but they lack the reasons to do so.
Wen Yong immediately shook his head and said:
"Have you forgotten? I'm afraid that the Zhenling Sect's time is running out. The three major sects have long been extremely coveted for the many spiritual mines and spiritual veins in the Zhenling Palace. Once that person is gone, you Do you think they can let go of such an opportunity?"
"You mean... they are accumulating strength to fight for Zhenling Sect's Nascent Soul after it emerges?"
Wang Yan soon understood what Wen Yong meant, and his expression He couldn't help but become solemn.
If the three major sects really have such a plan, I am afraid that the visible future of the Yan Kingdom is destined to be full of bloodshed.
"Most likely."
"There is nothing we can do about it. If the three Jindan Daoist Masters in Zhenling Palace had not died together, the seven Jindan Daoist Masters could still barely maintain the title of the first sect in the Yan Kingdom, and the situation would be different. It may not get worse, but now there are only four Jindan immortals. When Zhang Zhenjun emerges, it will be impossible to hold on to the vast resources of the Zhenling Palace." "The
Yan Kingdom will be in chaos, and we must prepare early."
Wen Yong said at the end, He couldn't help but sigh.
The past ten years have been an unprecedentedly relaxed time for casual cultivators in Baiyunping and even the entire Yan Kingdom.
Without the oppression of the sect disciples, the casual cultivators don't have to worry all day long.
You can practice freely, compete for various opportunities, and accumulate spiritual stones...
But it is obvious that with the end of Da Chu's counterattack against the Kingdom of All Gods and the return of a large number of sect monks, the days of most casual cultivators will inevitably return to what they once were. embarrassment.
The Shanli Singing Club, which has been developing rapidly for a period of time, will inevitably lose part of its income even if it can survive as secretly as the ghost market.
The original expansionary momentum will inevitably turn into a steady and conservative one.
When Wang Ba heard Wen Yong's words, he couldn't help but think about it secretly.
Out of caution and his previous experience in the Dongsheng Sect and Tianmen Sect, the first thing that came to his mind was where he should run once the Yan Kingdom was in chaos.
Either go south to Dachu, go north to Song State, or go west, past Jiantao Station, towards Sen State.
Or risk going east, where Xu and Qiao are very close to Wei, and naturally closer to the Kingdom of the Gods.
But he gave up the option of heading east the first time.
Needless to say, going north, the Song State was adjacent to the Fu State of the 'Great Yan Dynasty', and demon cultivators were raging, so it was far less stable than the Yan State.
The only remaining options are to go west to Sen Country or south to Da Chu.
Just as he was secretly weighing the advantages and disadvantages of these two places, he heard Wen Yong say with a hint of envy in his tone:
"But it doesn't matter, fellow Taoist. With my fellow Taoist's skills and reputation, as long as the people of the three major sects are not stupid, I won't do anything to you."
Wang Yan was stunned.
He couldn't believe it:
"Fellow Taoist, are you joking? I'm a casual cultivator, and it's easy for the three major sects to take advantage of me."
Wen Yong shook his head repeatedly:
"Fellow Taoist, it seems that he doesn't know his influence... ...Do you know who are the people who come to us to buy the essence of the spiritual chicken?"
Wang Yan frowned and thought for a while, then said uncertainly: "They are all wealthy people?" "
That's true, but it's more accurate. It can be said that these people are either members of the three major sects themselves, or they are outstanding people among casual cultivators."
Wen Yong's eyes flashed, and he began to show his outstanding vision and cognition.
He analyzed:
"Fellow Taoist Soul Chicken Essence can increase the possibility of monks breaking through bottlenecks. Even if it is not that effective for foundation-building monks, as long as the quantity increases, there will still be a slight improvement. Such a rare treasure, as long as it has If fellow Taoists are here, energy can be continuously refined. Who is willing to give up and dare to touch a hair of fellow Taoists?" "If you really dare to
do this, let alone the casual cultivators who don't agree, it's just some monks within the three major sects. , may not agree."
"After all, there are more than one or two monks trapped in the bottleneck." "
Even Master Jin Dan, with his monstrous strength, cannot completely ignore the thoughts of the people below." "
What's more... The three major sects are not all harmonious. If someone dares to forcibly kidnap a fellow sect, what should the other two sects think?" "
They really dare to let a fellow sect fall into the hands of a sect and let it snatch the fellow sect. Hidden huge network of contacts?"
Wen Yong directly gave a conclusion:
"So, even if the Yan Kingdom is in chaos, fellow Taoists don't need to worry. Among the casual cultivators in the Yan Kingdom, we can probably count them on one hand who are safer than you. There may not even be one."
Wang Hao was stunned for a moment because he didn't realize that he had unknowingly gained a small status in the Yan Kingdom.
No, according to Wen Yong's words, his status is not generally high.
Even the kind that can affect the balance of the three major sects.
After thinking about it, Wang Hao gradually came back to his senses.
I found that it was true as Wen Yong said, as long as he did not clearly oppose the three major sects, with his fame and skills, the people of the three major sects could only provide him with good food and drink.
"However, fellow Taoist, there is one thing you should pay attention to."
"What?"
Wang Yan was a little curious. With his status so high, is there any problem?
But Wen Yong said meaningfully:
"The entire Yan Kingdom monks only know Taoist friends by their names, but there are only a handful of people who have actually met them." "
I know that Taoist friends are indifferent to fame and fortune and don't like to appear in public."
" But let me ask you, what if a sect knows your identity and secretly kidnaps you?" "
Just like those second-level alchemists of Baidanhui who were kidnapped."
"The reputation of Master Shenfu is still there, but fellow Taoist disciples are afraid that they will be under the control of this sect and find it difficult to extricate themselves." "Others are determined not to know about it, and the
other two sects will naturally not stand up for fellow daoists. ."
"This is what I want to remind fellow Taoists."
Wang Hao suddenly felt excited when he heard this.
He instantly understood what Wen Yong meant:
"I understand what fellow Taoist meant."
"It's better to hide in the dark than stand under everyone's eyes, so all the tricks will naturally disappear." "
Zai He San In a large number of games, he was able to take the initiative and successfully become an outsider that no one wanted to offend..." "
Thank you, fellow Taoist, for your guidance!"
Wang Hao solemnly bowed deeply to Wen Yong.
It's not that he didn't expect this, but his habit of keeping a low profile made him instinctively choose to hide his identity. His thoughts were limited for a while, and he ignored another way to protect himself.
Wen Yong's words awakened him.
Times have changed, and the methods used to deal with crises in the past are indeed somewhat outdated now.
And his current cultivation and foundation are far from what he used to be.
And what we are facing is not a method that directly affects life and death, such as sending spiritual lottery.
Being high-profile is not necessarily a bad thing.
Seeing Wang Ba salute, Wen Yong turned sideways and said repeatedly:
"I don't dare, I have some selfish motives and just want to keep my fellow Taoist here."
As soon as Wang Ba's mind changed, he understood Wen Yong's intention. intention.
He just hopes that if he stays, the Shanli Singing Club can continue to operate.
Otherwise, without the essence of Lingji as the finale, what is the difference between Shanli singing club and other singing clubs and even ghost markets?
But this is human nature. The reason why he has been able to cooperate with Wen Yong so far is not because cooperation is beneficial.
And Wen Yong never concealed this, but seemed more magnanimous.
"I wonder what you plan to do next? If necessary, how about using the next singing performance as the stage for your Taoist official appearance?"
Wen Yong thought for a while and then suggested.
Wang Ba thought for a while, but couldn't think of a better way.
"I would like to ask fellow Taoist to take care of everything."
Wang Hao raised his hand in salute and said sincerely.
"Fellow Taoist, you are so polite. I am honored to be able to help you to reach a higher level. Once you make an official appearance, I have a hunch that even if I want to help you, I won't have the chance. "
Wen Yong sighed.
Wang Ba felt a little regretful when he heard what he said, knowing that what he said was true.
People from the three major sects may be able to tolerate their own existence, but it is difficult to tolerate a casual cultivator like Wen Yong monopolizing Wang Ba's output.
The likely result is that Wen Yong is forced out.
However, Wen Yong was free and easy. He immediately clapped his hands and summoned a few puppets to set up a table of wine and food.
While drinking, the two of them finalized the matters for the next singing concert one by one.
After everything was discussed, I counted on my fingers and found that it was already the second day.
Wang Hao left immediately.
But before leaving, Wen Yong suddenly thought of something, and with a hint of a man's smile on his face, he forced Wang Yan to give a small box.
"This is..."
Wang Yan looked confused.
"It's a good thing. You will know after you try it when you go back. This is a treasure specially provided by the royal court of Da Chu. I got two copies in total, one for myself and the other for you." Wen Yong specially
said emphasize.
A special treat for the royal family?
Wang Yan became interested.
The Great Chu Dynasty was different from other dynasties in that it was dominated by the royal family, the Xiang family.
He was really curious about the things that were provided to the royal family.
He suppressed his mood at the moment, left the formation, carefully gathered his breath, and flew towards the gathering place of casual cultivators.
