The master of cultivating immortals protects me

Hearing what he wanted, Xu Xiaofeng left Xu's house and returned to Songhe Tower. When he was still outside the door, he felt the breath of the master. Almost immediately, he pushed open the door and walked in with big strides. Sweeping around the room looking for the figure of that person.

Passing through the front hall, Xu Xiaofeng found his master in the study, he knew that the master likes to stay in the study, sitting near the window, holding a book in his hand and reading casually, when he comes in, he will She raised her head and gave him a warm look.

"master!"

Xu Xiaofeng smiled so much that his whole body was glowing, Fenghuang knew that Xu Xiaofeng had gained something today, otherwise this kid would have shrugged his head long ago.

There is no need to take the initiative to ask, Fenghuang knows that with Xu Xiaofeng's show-off character, he will take the initiative to tell him what happened today.

"A Baoling?" When Xu Xiaofeng mentioned the conversation overheard at the banquet today, the master, who had not expressed much expression all this time, twitched slightly, and then seemed to understand something.

"Xiaofeng, tell me your opinion."

"Ten years ago, the spiritual energy of Phoenix Mountain was exhausted, which not only caused the Xu family to lose its foundation as one of the four major families, but also made the Zongzheng court dissatisfied with the Xu family. If this continues, the Xu family will sooner or later lose the position of the four major families Being replaced by others, and losing the position of the Big Four means that the Xu family has lost the support of the imperial court. The Xu family has offended many people in the past, and they know very well that if they do not have the support of the imperial court, they will not immediately fall apart. It will also be slowly liquidated."

After talking a lot, Xu Xiaofeng finally gave a conclusion with bright eyes: "The Xu family can only have one choice. After losing Phoenix Mountain, they must find a powerful force to maintain the court's attention to them. This force can be A powerful magic weapon, a divine weapon, can also be a powerful monk."

It's a pity that the Xu family doesn't have a magical weapon that the court can look up to, and there hasn't been a truly powerful monk in the past few years.

In the past, the Xu family could continue to cultivate monks by virtue of the abundant aura of Phoenix Mountain. Now that the aura of Phoenix Mountain has been exhausted in the past few years, the speed of cultivator promotion has been greatly reduced. The contribution of the Xu family to the imperial court has become less and less. Leave the position of the Big Four to a useless family.

The Xu family can only look for support from outside forces, and there is no doubt that they have their eyes on Long Qing.

"Long Qing is their best choice. The prince's noble blood allows Long Qing to have a place in the imperial court. The status of a monk of the Heavenly Spirit gives Long Qing a certain status and prestige in the world of cultivating immortals. As long as he has Long Qing's support, the Xu family can occupy four The status of the big family."

Xu Xiaofeng analyzed clearly, Fenghuang nodded in satisfaction and said: "You are right, but Longqing will not easily cooperate with the four major families."

No one in the Zongzheng Kingdom wants to get Long Qing's support. The four major families have wooed Long Qing over the past ten years, but even if the Xu family abandoned Xu Xiaofeng to save Long Qing's life ten years ago, they did not really get Long Qing's support.

Immortal cultivators pay attention to the purity of the six sense organs, but this Long Qing has really achieved ruthlessness and ungratefulness.

"Long Qing, as a cultivator of the Heavenly Spirit, made rapid progress in the early stages of cultivation, but his stability and speed will gradually decrease in the later stage. Although he is a prince, he is a cultivator after all. He certainly does not care about gold, silver and treasure." Poured a cup of tea, Xu Xiaofeng put his hands together Respectfully handed it to Fenghuang's hand.

"The Xu family can still maintain the status of the four major families in the ten years since they lost Phoenix Mountain. It is estimated that Long Qing also contributed. Come up with a gift that makes Long Qing feel worthy, and this gift is Brother Baoling, master, am I right?"

Those clear and bright eyes flashed with urgency, Fenghuang couldn't help but chuckled, and took a sip of tea: "The Heavenly Spirit cultivators who are gifted with Heavenly Spiritual Roots have no bottlenecks from the initial stage of cultivation to the period of alchemy. , everything is going smoothly, but after the alchemy period, it is like going against the current, and if you want to get a quick improvement, you must rely on external force or the blessing of elixir."

After a pause, the master's deep eyes dimmed: "For a cultivator of Tianling, a cultivator of Baoling who can quickly improve his cultivation is better than any panacea in the world. It's an irresistible temptation."

Rubbing the shiny rim of the white jade teacup with his fingers, Feng Huang lowered his head and blew on a few pieces of tea leaves floating on the turquoise water: "If I remember correctly, Zongzheng Kingdom has not seen a Baoling in nearly 20 years."

……

Even though the Xu family intends to use Bao Ling as a bargaining chip in exchange for Long Qing's support, it does not mean that other forces who have received the news will not take action against this Bao Ling.

Even Xu Xiaofeng could overhear the news that the Xu family has a cultivator Baoling during the banquet, let alone other people?Although it is not known who leaked the Xu family's secret weapon, Xu Xiaofeng had to find out that Baoling first.

Rubbing his nose habitually, Xu Xiaofeng saw Gongsunzhuang who was obviously waiting for him when he went downstairs for dinner. Seeing the way the man's eyes lit up when he saw him, Xu Xiaofeng sneered secretly twice, pretending Tsukuru walked over carelessly.

Gongsun Zhuang naturally came over and greeted you politely, then said guiltily and regretfully: "Yesterday, I wanted to accompany Mr. Feng around Xu's house, but I didn't expect that there were too many people and I got separated from you. When will Mr. Feng come back?" I don’t even know, it’s my dereliction of duty.”

Xu Xiaofeng smiled and exchanged polite words with the other party, and rode to Xu's house with Gongsun Zhuang and others like yesterday, but today was obviously different from yesterday, Gongsun Zhuang ignored those who tried to chat with him from other families, Gongsun Zhuang The few subordinates next to them are well separated from those who can disturb them.

This more or less made Xu Xiaofeng a little upset, he also wanted to find out if the Xu family hid that Baoling in the Xu family today.

Fortunately, he didn't come alone today.

[The Xu family does not have the aura of Baoling]

The master's calm voice as always echoed in his mind, Xu Xiaofeng hadn't responded yet, his master said again: [Maybe he used pills to hide his breath, or it might be hidden somewhere outside Xu's house] It seemed he was pondering After a while, the master continued:

[Don't mess around, I'll look around]

The position of the heart suddenly lost a familiar warmth, Xu Xiaofeng realized that his master's consciousness had temporarily left the piece of ancient jade that had saved his life for ten years.

"We've known each other for so long, but I still don't know what sect and school Master Feng and Mr. Feng are from?" Gongsun Zhuang really couldn't help asking.

It's only been a few days since we've known each other for so long?Secretly making complaints, Xu Xiaofeng had expected that these people would ask him about his background, Xu Xiaofeng said as he walked: "Mr. There is no family, no faction, and it is now in troubled times, so I went down the mountain with my senior brother to practice and experience, passed by Xujiacheng, and heard that the four big families gathered here, so I came over curiously to have a look."

To save Gongsun Zhuang from asking east and west, Xu Xiaofeng simply said all the remarks he had prepared a long time ago.

Fortunately, Gongsun Zhuang also wisely did not continue to ask Xu Xiaofeng's origin, but suddenly became serious when he heard Xu Xiaofeng said that he went down the mountain to practice catching monsters, and sighed: "In recent years, more and more demons and ghosts have appeared in various places. I once heard my master say that the monsters that occasionally appeared hundreds of years ago were small monsters, but in recent decades, these monsters and ghosts have become more and more powerful. Mr. Feng and Mr. Feng did not slay demons in vain while practicing. It is my admiration."

Xu Xiaofeng glanced at Gongsunzhuang, this man's heartbroken look didn't seem to be faking, the people of Gongsun's family are better than Xu's, at least from the people who have been in contact with him.

Now that the topic of slaying demons and eliminating demons has been discussed, and the master is not around, Xu Xiaofeng took the opportunity to say, "I don't know if Mr. Gongsun knows about the water demon that was near Phoenix Mountain ten years ago?"

Gongsunzhuang nodded. Since Xu Xiaofeng said that he came down the mountain to slay demons, he must know something about related matters. He didn't doubt too much, and said along the topic Xu Xiaofeng raised: "In the past Although I have been cultivating in Riyue Mountain for many years, I have also heard about this matter from my master."

"People in the Xu family thought it was just an ordinary monster, but they didn't expect the water monster to be so powerful. That day, four monks and seven warriors went there. Although the water monster died, Xu Xiaofeng, the fifth son of the Xu family, has since Whereabouts are unknown."

What Gongsun Zhuang said was too simple and vague, Xu Xiaofeng secretly guessed whether this person did it on purpose or really only knew so much.

He didn't intend to end this topic here, a trace of cunning quickly flashed in his eyes, Xu Xiaofeng said deliberately, seemingly naturally: "It's really strange to say that after the water demon dragged the fifth son of the Xu family into the water, there was no sound. When I got up, I became a cold corpse, and the spirit beads in my body disappeared, and the spirit energy of Phoenix Mountain suddenly dried up the next day, which made me wonder if there is any connection between these two things."

Xu Xiaofeng was satisfied to see the flickering expression of astonishment on Gongsun Zhuang's face. What he said just now were not details that ordinary people could understand.
