Immortal Mansion Royal Beast

Outside Qiyun City, at the place where Fang Qingyuan and Zhou Chaoxian had fought that day, someone was observing the traces left by the second sword.

Looking at the sword mark that had cracked the sea of ​​clouds for dozens of miles in front of him, no matter how the surrounding clouds rolled, they could not fill this horrific sword mark. As soon as the clouds touched the edge of the sword mark, they were dispersed by the invisible sword energy.

"The power of a sword is so terrifying. I doubt if this is really a magical power that a Jindan cultivator can display."

A middle-aged Nascent Soul cultivator in a green robe kept sighing to his friend beside him. In his perception, there were several cultivators of the same level in the distant sea of ​​clouds, also checking the sword mark. He could even know their identities, but under this circumstance, it was not appropriate for them to meet.

The friend stared at the sword mark infatuatedly, with an invisible divine thought spreading in the void, constantly stabbing at the sword mark in front of him.

The green-robed monk smiled helplessly and continued to protect his friend. Seeing his friend's obsessed look, he thought sourly in his heart that it would be great if he also practiced the way of Golden Spirit.

After a long time, the friend came back to his senses and said:

"It is indeed the origin of the Golden Spirit. I have gained something. I really want to find Fang Qingyuan and have him demonstrate it again in person."

The green-robed monk sneered:

"What are you thinking? Fang Qingyuan is now valued by Patriarch Tian, ​​and you still think he is just that unaffiliated White Mountain cultivator. The next time you meet, who knows who has a higher status between the two of you."

Hearing his friend say this, the Nascent Soul who was practicing the Golden Spirit Way sighed and wondered why he hadn't discovered this pure source earlier.

"By the way, how is Zhou Chaoxian doing now? If he challenges Fang Qingyuan again, can we watch him fight?"

The green-robed monk did not notice anything wrong with what his friend said. In his current mind, Zhou Chaoxian's attitude towards Fang Qingyuan should be described as a challenge.

"There shouldn't be a fight. As I said before, with Patriarch Tian here, who would dare to jump out and cause trouble? It's a pity that Fang Qingyuan was born in Baishan and has never been well-known. If he was in Qiyun, we wouldn't have discovered this rough gem just now."

"The Zhou family lost face in this battle. If they don't get it back, the Zhou family's prestige in Shuwu Peak will be greatly damaged. It depends on how the Zhou family makes up for it."

"It's not that simple. The Zhou family's foundation is intact. It's just that their reputation has been ruined. How could a family with thousands of years of history fall because of something like this? We'll see what happens next."

The two chatted non-stop about the sword mark. In the distant Qiyun City, many people were also talking about Fang Qingyuan.

Hu Wanquan walked through the long corridor and came to a small building in the center of the lake, where several monks were chatting and enjoying the scenery.

As they got closer, Hu Wanquan could hear the discussions of the group of monks, and the probability of a certain name appearing in their conversation was very high.

"Hey, Old Hu, you came at the right time. Some of your Hu family's businesses are in Baishan. You should know something about Qingyuan. Come on, tell me about it."

When the familiar monk saw Lao Hu coming, he called him over. Lao Hu went forward and found a seat to sit down, without saying a word for a while.

This circle at present is formed spontaneously by some familiar Jindan cultivators, but most of them are from small families in Qiyun, which are not as good as the Zhou family and the Pei family.

Hu Wanquan had just returned to Qiyun City from outside. As soon as he entered the city, he heard about the big events that happened a few days ago. This kind of drama of a Jindan cultivator fighting a Yuanying cultivator had not happened in Qiyun for who knows how long.

It was just that Tian Chang made the final move at that time, and many people did not know the outcome of the battle. They also did not know how the fight ended in the end. They only knew that Zhou Chaoxian was avoiding people, while Fang Qingyuan was staying in Tian Chang's mansion, and it seemed that nothing had happened to him.

This triggered everyone's speculation. For several days, the topic that all the prominent cultivators in Qiyun City talked about was the previous battle.

Hu Wanmen's face was solemn. He had just returned from the scene outside the city. The tear in the sea of ​​clouds caused by Fang Qingyuan's second sword that day had not been repaired yet.

"Old Hu, tell me, are all the monks in Baishan so powerful? I heard that Fang Qingyuan was also an ordinary person in the past, how did he become so powerful?"

The person who spoke was Lu Ping, a Jindan cultivator from the Lu family of Qiyun. He was fond of mechanical puppetry all his life and was an authority in this field in Qiyun City, but he liked to watch the fun, so whenever something big happened, he would be there.

"That's right, Lao Hu, you have been in Baishan for many years. Tell us about this Qingyuan. In our impression, this person seems to have jumped out of the cracks of the stone. It's too abrupt."

Another Jindan cultivator also joined in. This was Gongsun Ye from the Gongsun family of Qiyun. He was a master in refining equipment and, like Lu Ping, had a wide range of friends. This small circle of Jindan cultivators was brought up by this person.

Being praised by several people like this, Hu Wanquan also adjusted his mentality. He said:

"Fang Qingyuan rose to prominence in the Southern Border Beast Taming Sect. When Wei Tong led his troops to attack Shandu, the Southern Border Beast Taming Sect also came to help. This man made his mark in this battle."

Fang Qingyuan didn't know that someone had already recorded the events of that year in history books.

He put down the greeting letters from Xu Taichu and Cao Qingmei, who were considered good friends, and sat upright in the cave of this fifth-level spiritual land, feeling the spiritual environment brought by the super high-level spiritual land. For a moment, he was eager to make a breakthrough, and he even wanted to take the initiative to trigger a heavenly tribulation.

After practicing the technique several times, Fang Qingyuan suppressed his restlessness. He was not fully prepared yet, so even if he wanted to form a baby, he couldn't be so hasty.

Now, several days have passed since the battle that day. The influence of this battle has gradually spread, and Fang Qingyuan's name has officially become known to everyone in Qiyun City.

A Jindan cultivator fights against a Yuanying cultivator and finally gets the upper hand. This kind of drama of the weak defeating the strong has been talked about with relish since ancient times. Even if the clown is a cultivator from their own sect, this group of Qiyun people don't care at all.

Although there are many side effects of stepping on the Zhou family to get to the top, Fang Qingyuan doesn't care, because compared with the benefits he gets, it's all worth it.

Fang Qingyuan was tempted by Tian Chang's offer, because compared to wallowing in the pit of Baishan or fighting in the Beast Taming Sect, Qi Yun's conditions were like escaping Africa and entering Europe.

The Qiyun Sect was far superior to the other two in terms of strength and atmosphere, and Tian Chang also thought highly of himself. His personal promise seemed extremely sincere compared to the Khar Beast Taming Sect's indifference and paying money to go through the back door.

Of course, this is also why Fang Qingyuan did not show his strength in front of Kalweiming. If he had defeated a Nascent Soul under Kalweiming's nose, Kalweiming would probably have been tempted.

But things in the world are not so easily accomplished, and Fang Qingyuan would not slap a Nascent Soul cultivator in the face just to gain Kalweiming's attention.

Everything is left to nature, which makes it seem real. However, there is a problem right now, that is, Tian Chang's promise most likely does not include the disciples of Qingyuan Sect.

Tian Chang values ​​Fang Qingyuan as a person, and the Baishan Qingyuan Sect is not worth mentioning to him. Moreover, according to Fang Qingyuan's observation, Tian Chang can recruit Fang Qingyuan, but he wants to take away a sect directly. The energy required for the two is also different.

Although Baishan is not very strong, it is still a large force with cultivators who have reached the state of Divine Transformation. As a newly promoted Divine Transformation cultivator, can Tian Chang bring Qingyuan Sect to Qiyun from Baishan?

Fang Qingyuan has invested a lot of emotion in his own sect over the years. To be honest, Fang Qingyuan would be reluctant to go to Qiyun alone and give up this foundation.

From Baishan to the Kaer family, the two families are next to each other, and there is Lechuan's Baishan Beast Guarding Gate in the middle. The three families can be connected together and are of the same blood.

And if Fang Qingyuan married Qiyun, the two places are more than 100,000 miles apart, so how could he talk about control? After a long time, the feelings would fade.

Alas, there are gains and losses, and there is no way to have the best of both worlds in this world. Fang Qingyuan shook his head, he wanted to have his cake and eat it too.

"Senior Fang, someone is visiting outside."

The Jindan cultivator on duty outside the cave delivered a visiting card into Fang Qingyuan's cave. Fang Qingyuan opened it and saw that the name "Zhou Family" was clearly written on it.

Fang Qingyuan groaned and said:

"Wait a minute, I'll be there soon."

The Zhou family was able to enter this place, probably with Tian Chang's permission. Otherwise, in Tian Chang's mansion, even the Zhou family would not be able to enter without Tian Chang's consent.

This is also Tian Chang's protection and endorsement for Fang Qingyuan. Tian Chang is sending a signal to the outside world that he values ​​Fang Qingyuan.

It seems that the Zhou family did not come here to call for revenge. As expected, after the younger one is beaten, the older one will come. This kind of drama will not happen at all.

Fang Qingyuan organized his thoughts and sank his mind into the Immortal Palace, where he saw Jin Bao unconscious and Xuan Li Sword dormant. He smiled helplessly, then stood up and walked out.

Arriving at the fourth-level quiet room here, an old Yuanying cultivator with gray hair was waiting quietly.

This old cultivator had a ruddy face, skin as delicate as a baby's, and a peaceful look, except that his hair and beard were all white. Even for a Nascent Soul cultivator, this was the state of his old age.

"I am Zhou Tong, an old man. Nice to meet you, Mr. Fang. I am here to resolve the misunderstanding between me and you, my unfilial son."

Zhou Tong's attitude was very humble. He did not show any arrogance of being the one in charge of Qiyun, nor did he show the anger he should have because the Zhou family had lost face. He was like the kind old man next door, looking at Fang Qingyuan with a smile.

Fang Qingyuan was not arrogant about this. Zhou Tong was one of the rotating leaders of the General Affairs Peak. In Qiyun, except for those Divine Transformation cultivators, he could be ranked in the top ten.

Moreover, considering Zhou Tong's age, he is of the same period as Chu Zhen, and his life span is almost coming to an end. Chu Zhen was able to take Gao Guangsheng away before his death. If Zhou Tong had any other ideas, his life would be in danger.

"Junior Fang Qingyuan meets Senior Zhou. There are some misunderstandings. It is not worthy for Senior Zhou to come in person. I should come to your house. However, I am grateful to Patriarch Tian for taking care of me and letting me recuperate here. I cannot do so for the time being. I hope Senior Zhou can forgive me."

Fang Qingyuan fought back and forth, and held Zhou Tong in check. Zhou Tong looked at Fang Qingyuan deeply and said bluntly:

"As expected, the future is formidable. When I learned that you actually hurt Chaoxian, I was full of curiosity about you. Now that I see him, his defeat was not unfair."

Fang Qingyuan was terrified. After a few words, the two of them had a general understanding of each other.

"Friend Fang, it was my Zhou family that was wrong in this matter. Chaoxian has been used to having everything go his way since he was young, and has developed an arrogant and domineering personality. It's better for him to suffer a loss this time, so as to avoid a bigger setback in the future."

"It is my fault. I accidentally hurt Fellow Daoist Zhou. If Senior Zhou allows, I am willing to visit Fellow Daoist Zhou to make amends."

Fang Qingyuan kept a low profile. He knew that this was not the time to be unreasonable. Moreover, it would be more lethal to Zhou Tong if he acted like a junior Jindan cultivator.

The Qilin child that you worked so hard to cultivate was defeated by a Jindan cultivator like me, how dare you still let me visit him? Moreover, a Nascent Soul cultivator fought a Jindan cultivator and lost. Every time I mention it, your Zhou family’s face is trampled on the ground.

Sure enough, with Zhou Tong's shrewdness, seeing Fang Qingyuan kept bringing up this matter, his face darkened slightly. Seeing this, Fang Qingyuan tactfully shut up.

"I have punished him to face the wall for a hundred years to reflect on his mistakes. This is only a punishment for himself. As for you, my friend Fang, please feel free to ask. As long as our Zhou family can do it, we will never refuse. This is compensation for you."

Seeing that Zhou Tong really wanted to apologize, Fang Qingyuan finally believed that Zhou Tong wanted to handle the matter in a low-key manner. Originally, he and the Zhou family did not have much conflict of interest, let alone a life-and-death feud. Zhou Chaoxian only came to teach him a lesson and give him a warning.

As a result, after the incident, the Zhou family did not continue to escalate the situation, which is in line with the current interests of the Zhou family.

Firstly, he had Tian Chang to protect him, and it was impossible for Zhou Tong to bear the pressure from Tian Chang and take action against him.

Secondly, if he continued to beat me, a Jindan cultivator, and the news got out, the Zhou family would lose even more face.

"I am so scared that I dare not ask for anything. I will obey Senior Zhou in everything."

Zhou Tong pondered for a few breaths, and then said:

"I heard that you want to merge with Qiyun. If so, how about I find you a fourth-level spiritual land?"

Fang Qingyuan was shocked. He didn't believe that Zhou Tong was really so kind and magnanimous. A fourth-level spiritual land was not just cabbage. How could he just give it away? There should be a certain scope for apologies. This compensation was obviously beyond the limit.

This fourth-level spiritual land can be used to house the sect's disciples, not the fourth-level cave residence that Tian Chang promised. A fourth-level cave residence is nothing, but a fourth-level spiritual land is a legacy that can be passed down for thousands of years.

Qiyun is now overcrowded. New Nascent Soul cultivators, if they do not have a backer, will be sent out to fend for themselves. For example, Chu Wen has to start a war to gain access to a fourth-tier spiritual land.

But Zhou Tong promised it to me so easily, which seemed wrong no matter how I looked at it.

Unless there is some big trap hidden here, the inside story of which he is unaware, Zhou Tong just wants to watch himself jump into it. He will just watch from the sidelines without having to do anything himself.

Could it be that he wanted to offend many Yuanying families as soon as he entered Qiyun and put himself on the spot? Who would not hate him when the fourth-level spiritual land that many Yuanyings coveted was given to an outsider?

This is truly honey tainted with arsenic. Fang Qingyuan looked at Zhou Tong with a smile on his face and sighed in his heart. He was ready to fall into this trap.

"Thank you very much for your kindness, Senior Zhou. I dare not refuse your gift. I will let you arrange it for me."

Zhou Tong laughed, "When we meet, we can forget all grudges with a smile. It will be a good story if it gets out. Fang Qingyuan, I look forward to seeing you in the future. Please come visit me when you are free. Qiyun welcomes you."

Zhou Tong left with a smile. Fang Qingyuan pondered for a long time and finally came to Tian Chang's cave to ask for a meeting.

Tian Chang obviously valued Fang Qingyuan very much. He only asked Fang Qingyuan to wait for an hour before calling him into the secret realm.

"It seems that you have figured it out. How about it? When will you come to my Qiyun?"

Fang Qingyuan said in a deep voice:

"Thank you for your appreciation, I am willing to serve you. I just ask you to give me some time to deal with the original matters."

Tian Chang smiled with relief and nodded:

"This is the law of nature. Go early and come back early. Keep this magic weapon to avoid the Lord of White Mountain making things difficult for you."

Tian Chang handed a sword-shaped token to Fang Qingyuan. After Fang Qingyuan took it, he bowed respectfully and left the secret realm.

He came to the teleportation hall in the city, ignored all kinds of gazes, and stepped into the teleportation array to Qinan City.
