Chapter 44: Saint
In the Dihuo Valley, in the huge wooden house, Chen Jiu looked at the magical herbs and medicines all over the ground with a troubled look on his face.
He really didn't know whether he should be thankful or run away.
There are so many spiritual medicines in this Linlang Immortal Mansion, not only in the spiritual fields, but also in other places.
It seemed that it was not enough for him to just pick all the mature magical herbs and medicinal herbs in the spiritual field. Although the magical herbs and medicinal herbs in other places were not as dense as those in the spiritual field, they were still frighteningly numerous compared to those in Yishan.
This time he really didn't know what to do.
If it was for the sake of saving his life, then of course he should leave this dangerous place as soon as possible. Even if he went to the Yin and Yang Realm, to the Flower-Fruit Mountain, or even to the Lion Camel Ridge newly named by the monkey demon, it would be much safer than staying here.
The problem is, he can’t resist the temptation of so many magical herbs and medicines!
You know, this was the big house that Yu Qi had built to store the golden body of the gods. Each room was more than ten feet in radius. He had filled two rooms with the mature herbs and medicines from the spiritual field in the southeast.
The spiritual fields in other directions haven’t been harvested yet. If the old fox fairy and Jiaona and the others rush back, I’m sure all ten rooms will be full!
How many magical herbs and elixirs are there?
He estimated that as long as he could refine all these magical herbs and elixirs into magical pills, he would have no problem achieving the golden elixir path.
If he could take over this Immortal Palace and continuously collect the magical herbs and elixirs inside to make pills, it would probably only take him a few decades to cultivate his Qi and become an immortal!
With such a great temptation, isn't it worth taking a risk?
Chen Jiu was sitting cross-legged in a room filled with magical herbs and elixirs, frowning and thinking, when the old fox fairy suddenly flashed in front of him.
He couldn't help but jump up and asked excitedly: "Ancestor, have you finished harvesting the spiritual fields in the northwest?"
Bai Ruolan nodded solemnly and said, "The spiritual fields have been almost harvested, but the Linlang Immortal Palace has also been discovered."
This was a matter of time, and he couldn't block the new area of more than a thousand miles in radius, so it was normal for people to find out.
Chen Jiu asked helplessly: "Who is it? Do you recognize him?"
Bai Ruolan nodded solemnly and said, "I recognized him. He is from the Qinglian Sect."
Qinglian Sect!
Chen Jiu couldn't help but be shocked and asked, "Are you talking about the Qinglian Sect in Jinan Prefecture and Dongchang Prefecture?"
These guys are so terrifying! The imperial court once organized a large army to encircle and suppress the Qinglian Sect, but they were defeated by them!
Now, the imperial court could only turn a blind eye and allow the Qinglian Sect to develop in Jinan Prefecture and Dongchang Prefecture, and no longer dared to send a large army to encircle and suppress it.
One can imagine how terrifying the Qinglian Sect’s power is.
This is really a big trouble!
It's true that he was mentally prepared.
This is like spreading gold all over the ground without anyone guarding it. How can it not attract thieves?
The problem is that this first thief is too powerful. The Qinglian Sect is a force that even the imperial court cannot do anything about. What can he do to them?
What should I do?
He hadn't figured out how to deal with the Qinglian Sect yet, when Jiaona and Yu Qi's subordinate Xu Gou came together.
Xu Gou bowed without hesitation and said, "Master Jiu, Master Qi asked me to tell you that there are children of wealthy families investigating the northeast and southeast of Xinyu Linlang Immortal Mansion. Master Qi wants to ask you how to deal with these people."
What?
Chen Jiu subconsciously asked: "How did Lao Qi know?"
Xu Gou explained in detail: "Seventh Master knows that you are short of manpower, so he sent a team of golden spirits to patrol the north and south sides near the Yin and Yang boundary."
Yu Qi is really thoughtful.
This is even more trouble.
Chen Jiu frowned and then asked, "Has Old Seven found out which noble and wealthy families these children are from?"
He has never been out of Qingzhou in his life, so he doesn't know much about the situation outside.
The Dog was also at a loss, not knowing how to answer.
Seeing this, the old fox fairy Bai Ruolan murmured, "No need to check. Northern Zhili and Southern Zhili are where the noble families gather. Most of the noble families in the world gather in the two capitals of the Ming Dynasty. These noble families are inextricably linked. If one or two families know about it, the others will naturally know about it."
Most of the aristocratic and wealthy families in the world!
Can I still stay in this Linlang Immortal Palace?
Chen Jiu frowned and pondered for a while, then said decisively: "It seems that we can only drag the Qinglian Sect to take the blame!"
ah!
When the monsters heard this, they were all stunned.
His words are really confusing.
The old fox fairy Bai Ruolan couldn't help but ask, "Why did you want the Qinglian Sect to take the blame? How could the Qinglian Sect take the blame for us?"
Chen Jiu explained in detail: "The Imperial Court can do nothing about the Qinglian Sect. The key is that the Imperial Court has also surrounded and suppressed the Qinglian Sect. It goes without saying that the Qinglian Sect, the Imperial Court, and the aristocratic families are definitely not in the same group.
I have been labeled a traitor by the Wang family of Langya. Using the imperial court to deal with the aristocratic families or using the aristocratic families to deal with the imperial court is courting death. I cannot even be discovered by the forces related to the imperial court and the aristocratic families. I will be in danger if I am discovered.
Now the only one we can use is the Qinglian Sect. If we can establish a good relationship with the Qinglian Sect, or even pretend to join it, we can direct the spearheads of the imperial court and the aristocratic families towards the Qinglian Sect."
This kid is still so smart.
Bai Ruolan nodded slightly and said, "Well, this method is indeed good. Anyway, the Qinglian Sect and the Imperial Court have long been at loggerheads, so let them fight."
Chen Jiu thought about it carefully again, and then said carefully: "Old Ancestor, can you stay here for a while? We must not abandon this place, and we can't show too weak in front of the Qinglian Sect, otherwise, they may swallow us up in one gulp."
The old ancestor Bai Ruolan nodded without hesitation and said, "No problem, I will support you here."
That's about it.
Chen Jiu said decisively: "Lao Ding, you hurry up and make the elixirs . Make all the collected immortal herbs and elixirs into Zhenyuan Pills, Peiyuan Pills and Haoyuan Pills as soon as possible. Jiaona, you stay here and help Lao Er and Dasheng collect herbs. I will go and think of a way to get in touch with the Qinglian Sect."
After saying that, he transformed into the true form of the Tiger God and ran wildly towards the northwest.
The speed of the Qinglian Sect was extremely fast. In just one morning, they organized thousands of people and headed straight for the Linlang Immortal Palace.
When Chen Jiu arrived at the edge of Linlang Immortal Palace, the Qinglian Sect's men had already arrived.
He extended his spiritual sense to explore the mountain top not far away, and suddenly he was as if he was hit by a spell, standing still on the spot.
There was actually a young girl sitting under a canopy on the top of the mountain. The canopy was densely packed with Qinglian followers, at least hundreds of them. Judging from their physiques, auras, and equipment, each of them was probably capable of fighting against masters at the level of great demons.
However, these are not the main points. The main point is that the girl's appearance is so stunning that she is breathtakingly beautiful.
Chen Jiu wasn't crazy about her. He just wanted to get close to the girl, to protect her, and to...
"Who are you, master? Please show yourself!"
As soon as he extended his spiritual sense over there, the girl immediately turned around and gave him a tender shout.
This sound!
Why do I feel a sense of déjà vu?
Chen Jiu silently collected the Tiger God's true body and quickly climbed to the top of the mountain. Just as he was about to approach the canopy, a row of sword and shield warriors suddenly blocked in front of him and shouted sternly: "Stop, do not approach the Saint's carriage!"
Saint?
Chen Jiu was stunned when he heard this.
The Holy Maiden of the Green Lotus Sect was also stunned when she saw Chen Jiu's appearance.
Their eyes intertwined, and they both couldn't help but be stunned.
This feeling?
It’s so fascinating and hard to let go!
I have never seen him before, why does he feel so familiar?
The two sides stared at each other for a long time before the Saintess of the Green Lotus Sect shook her head slightly and raised her hand, saying, "Let him come over."
Chen Jiu walked forward slowly and bowed: "My name is Chen Jiu, may I ask who the young lady is?"
The Saintess of the Qinglian Sect said subconsciously: "My name is Luo Li, the Li of fox."
fox?!
