Immortal Mansion: With mediocre qualifications, I have no choice but to live forever

In Gusu City, there is a busy inn.

Zhou Yiqiao sat on the futon, looking at the three demon flame animal skins floating in front of him, with a hint of exhaustion between his brows.

"This is the sixth time."

A full half month has passed since Zhou Yiqiao obtained these three demonic flame beast skins.

During this period of time, apart from daily practice, Zhou Yiqiao spent all the rest of his time studying the strange patterns in the demonic flame beast's skin.

In the past few days, whenever Zhou Yi tried to combine the skills on the Demonic Flame Beast Skin with the Seven Killing Skills of Breaking the Cocoon, he would feel a sense of repulsion.

It was as if the skills recorded in the Demonic Flame Beast Skin completely deviated from the route of the Seven Killing Skills of Breaking the Cocoon, and almost made him go crazy.

"Is it necessary to collect all six animal skins in order to restore the information after the Seven Killings of Breaking the Cocoon?"

Zhou Yiqiao murmured to himself and quickly refuted his thoughts.

"No, at least this guess is wrong."

"According to Li Yunyi's description, after the Demon Flame Demon King fell to the ground, his body was already in disrepair. Even if all six animal skins were obtained, they would only be part of the complete pattern."

"Besides, of the remaining three animal skins, one is in the hands of the Jindan family and two are kept by the Nan family. If you want to get them, you have to go deep into the tiger's den."

Zhou Yiqiao narrowed his eyes slightly, then shook his head and said.

"But no matter what, at least for now, only by obtaining more Demonic Flame Beast Skins will I have a greater chance of perfecting the skills after the Seven Killings of Breaking the Cocoon."

After thinking about it again and again, Zhou Yiqiao decided to put the matter aside for the time being and wait until He Yunxi collected more clues before making any plans.

He sent a message into the secret and informed He Yunxi who lived nearby to come in.

"Senior brother called Yunxi here. What are your instructions?"

He Yunxi pushed the door open and asked respectfully.

"I have mastered all the skill inscriptions on the three animal skins, but there is still one final step left."

"At present, it seems that if we want to complete this last step, we can only place our hope on the remaining three magic flame beast skins."

Zhou Yiqiao pondered for a moment and then continued.

"Yunxi, go find out for me the whereabouts of the three demonic flame beast skins, and see if the Nan family and the Jindan family who took the skins are willing to take action."

"Of course, our safety is still the top priority. If it is really difficult, there is no need to force it."

He Yunxi heard this and immediately spoke.

"If senior brother wants to get in touch with the demonic flame beast skin, tomorrow will be an opportunity when the Nan family openly forms an alliance with several Jindan families."

"At that time, all major forces will gather in Nanfu. If we disguise ourselves as Taoists again and attend the meeting, we may be able to take advantage of the opportunity to gain some benefits."

"Oh? The Nan family is in alliance with several other major families?"

Zhou Yiqiao was slightly surprised.

"Exactly, after the exchange conference was held, several Jindan families near Gusu decided to join the Nan family, and at the same time sent envoys to send them gifts and congratulations to show their respect."

He Yunxi nodded and said.

"If this is the case, we will also prepare a congratulatory gift. After visiting your home, we can just put forward our demands."

Zhou Yiqiao frowned when he heard this.

"But for such a big event, the Nan family must have already planned it, and it should have been carefully planned. If we intervene rashly, we are afraid that it will attract others' attention."

"Senior brother, you are worrying too much."

He Yunxi smiled.

"The Nan family is now very powerful, and the entire alliance is completely led by the Nan family. Now, in order to pave the way for Nan Zheng, as long as the monks with a clear identity, the Nan family will not reject them."

"Senior brother probably doesn't know that the casual cultivators who have come here in the past two days and want to join the Nan family have already crossed the threshold of the Nan family."

"Tomorrow the two of us will pay a visit with a small gift to show our feelings. Junior sister joins the Nan family and dare not say it, but at least it can be done by asking the Nan family to treat each other with courtesy."

When Zhou Yiqiao heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up.

"This is so wonderful! After all, the Nan family is the local emperor of Gusu City. If you want to contact the demonic flame beast skin without fighting, it seems that this is the best way."

……

Noon the next day.

Zhou Yiqiao left the inn with He Yunxi and rushed towards Nanfu.

The two of them walked through the city, not very fast. They stopped and stopped along the way. It took them nearly a cup of tea to pass through most of Gusu City and arrived at Nanfu.

In front of the gate of Nanfu, gongs and drums were beating loudly, and the atmosphere was full of joy and excitement.

Nan Feilong, the head of the Nan family, attended the ceremony with his wife, children, relatives and friends. It was a lively event, inviting guests from all over to drink and enjoy the entertainment.

After Zhou Yiqiao and He Yunxi arrived at Nanfu, they walked straight towards the front yard.

The journey was smooth and the two of them entered the main hall smoothly.

At this time, the banquet was in full swing. Nan Feilong, with a rosy face, was chatting and laughing with the senior officials of the Jindan family. He frequently raised his glasses and toasted to all directions while pointing and introducing his children to the heads of the family. Among them, Thoughts are self-explanatory.

Suddenly, the head butler of the Nan family hurried in, leaned over Nan Feilong and whispered.

"Sir, another pair of monks and monks have come here because of their fame. The man is a gold elixir cultivator, and the woman is also a foundation-builder."

Nan Feilong was startled when he heard this, and then burst into laughter.

"Since they came here because of my reputation, just let them come in to see me. My Gusu Nan family has many guests today, and can I miss a glass of wine from them?"

The housekeeper resigned as instructed, and after a while, two figures came in from the outside.

As the two entered the lobby, they immediately attracted the attention of many people.

Zhou Yiqiao was naturally not afraid, and quickly stepped forward to deliver the prepared gifts to Nan Feilong, then bowed and complimented him.

"I'm Yue Juncai. This is Zhuo Jing Chu Dan. My husband and I have admired the reputation of Patriarch Nan during the exchange conference."

"I heard that Patriarch Nan is hosting a banquet for all of our allies today, and we both came uninvited. I hope Patriarch Nan won't be surprised."

Although Zhou Yiqiao said this, his expression did not show any panic at all. He stood there calmly and calmly.

When Nan Feilong heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, he took the gift from Zhou Yiqiao with a smile, and complimented him as well.

"It turned out to be Daoist Fellow Yue and Fellow Daoist Chu. The fact that they took out three Chaoyuan Pills at the exchange meeting that day left Nan Mou fresh in his mind."

"You two are willing to come today. It's too late for Nan to be happy, so why would you blame me? Hurry up and take a seat and have a taste of my Nan family's unique wine!"

After hearing this, Zhou Yiqiao and He Yunxi quickly thanked them and sat down in the banquet.

The eyes of all parties gathered, and the two nodded towards everyone, with thorough and thorough etiquette.

The group exchanged cups and chatted happily. During this period, there were also many uninvited monks like Zhou Yiqiao and the others. The Nan family, without exception, all nodded in agreement.

Soon it was sunset, and the time quietly reached evening.
