Chapter 38 Concept
The news that Wuquan Mountain was going to fight against the Ghost Dao Sect was basically known to everyone at this stage.
Although there has not yet been a real battle, the immortal cultivators from the Demon-Slaying Hall have been searching for the demon cultivators in the outer west city. This tense atmosphere makes the casual cultivators feel uneasy and will not go out unless necessary.
Furthermore, I heard that some demon cultivators were discovered by the Demon-Slaying Hall and started fighting in the street, and some casual cultivators were affected and innocent people died.
There were also casual cultivators who died in remote alleys for no apparent reason, and it was said that they were also killed by demonic cultivators.
But who knows whether it was the demon cultivator who killed it?
For a time, the wind was trembling, and there were few pedestrians on the streets. In some streets, there were no casual cultivators at all. Only in the market, there were still casual cultivators who wanted to go out to buy necessary items and only went out as a last resort.
After leaving the Fangshi area, the streets were deserted.
Not to mention, Shopkeeper Yu became more and more considerate in his work, which made Wu Tao realize that cooperating with Shopkeeper Yu was the most correct thing he had done. If he hadn't entrusted the escort of Taoist Jin, who was at the seventh level of Qi Refining, such a situation would have been , walking on such a deserted street, he was really a little uneasy.
Now... I glanced at the fellow Taoist named Jin next to me, and felt a sense of security in my heart.
At the seventh level of Qi refining, which is the later stage of Qi refining, with such strength, one can go sideways among casual cultivators. Most of the casual cultivators living in the West Outer City are in the early and middle stages of Qi refining. In the later stage of Qi refining, That's rare.
Once casual cultivators enter the late stage of Qi refining, their wealth will inevitably increase. They will not live in poor places like the West Outer City. They usually live in the real Immortal City of Five Spirit Cultivators.
As for the fellow Taoist surnamed Jin, Wu Tao guessed that he might be sent by the people behind Shopkeeper Yu to guard the spiritual materials shop to prevent the blind guys from messing around.
…
It was time for Wu Tao to enter the spiritual materials shop.
No. 36, Quanxin Street.
It is a small courtyard with three entrances and three exits. The Tongzhu San Weapon Master Association is located in this small courtyard. At this time, Fang Ming looked at the casual cultivator in front of him who was nodding and bowing, and said seriously: "Li Feng, do you remember what I just said to you?"
"Remember, remember, President Fang, don't worry, I will definitely tell President Xie every word." Li Feng said with a smile.
He is a member of the Jiu Ming San Artifact Cultivation Master Association, a first-level and second-level weapon refining master, and a second-level Qi refining practitioner. With his level, he is just a marginal figure in the Jiu Ming Powder Artifact Cultivation Master Association. Power, there are many things in the association, but there are very few spiritual stones.
Suddenly, Fang Mingfang, the vice-president of the Tongzhu San Weapon Master Association, came to him and asked him to tell a lie in exchange for thirty low-grade spiritual stones.
Although he knew very well that their president Zhu Jiu Ming and Xie Tao from the Tongzhu San Weapon Masters Association had never dealt with them, for the sake of the spirit stone, they were just lying. It was so easy that only a fool would not do it.
Fang Ming looked at the well-behaved Li Feng and felt relieved.
He secretly thought in his heart: Li Mo, I will never let you successfully enter the association. Xie Tao will live a good life in just a few years. This president must be mine.
With Li Mo's talent in weapon refining, he can already refine a first-level and fourth-level robe at a young age. If he is given a few more decades, he will definitely be able to grow to Xie Tao's level, or even higher.
Although Li Mo has been reluctant to join the association, there is still the boy Wu Zhongxing. That boy is not good at refining weapons, but he is very good at socializing with people. Many casual weapon masters in the association were attracted by Wu Zhongxing.
He was afraid that one day, Li Mo would be unable to withstand Wu Zhongxing's persuasion and actually join the association, which would be a huge threat to him.
"We just happened to take advantage of the chaos in the outer city to eliminate this threat." Fang Ming had a strong murderous intention in his heart and said to Li Feng: "Let's go, take you to see President Xie, and please call me Vice President Fang later. "
Li Feng nodded and smiled: "Don't worry, President Fang, I know what's going on. Besides, when Xie Hui's longevity is over, only President Fang can be the president of the Tongzhu San Artifact Masters Association."
Fang Ming then nodded with satisfaction.
Xie Tao was slightly surprised when he saw Li Feng and asked, "Fang Ming, who is this?"
Fang Ming said in a deep voice: "President Xie, this is Li Feng, a member of the Jiu Ming San Artifact Cultivation Masters Association. He was bribed by me. I have a piece of news that President Xie can listen to."
After that, he motioned to Li Feng.
Xie Tao looked at Li Feng, and Li Feng said quickly: "President Xie, I heard news in our association that our president Zhu Jiuming personally invited a first-level intermediate weapon refiner named Li Mo to join him, and he will join us every few days. An initiation ceremony will be held..."
Xie Tao's eyes turned cold when he heard this, and he said sternly: "Fang Ming, is what he said true?"
Fang Ming nodded and said: "President Xie, Li Feng's words are true. It is said that Zhu Jiuming offered a big bargaining chip, so Li Mo agreed to join the other party's Weapon Refiner Association.
President Xie, I have long said that Li Mo cannot be retained. You see, Xiao Wu has not been able to persuade Li Mo to join us for a month, which shows that we have no chance. "
"But we can't let him join Zhu Jiu Ming's association. If he gets Li Mo, then Zhu Jiu Ming won't sit on your head and shit."
Xie Tao was silent for a moment, and finally made a decision in his heart, saying: "What do you want to do?"
Fang Ming looked happy and said: "President, if it were normal, we would not dare to take action in the outer city. We would have to use a trick to lure Li Mo out of the city. But now there is friction between Wuquan Mountain and Ghost Dao Sect, and the situation is tense. We can take advantage of the chaos. Take action and then frame it on the demon cultivator."
Xie Tao said: "Can you guarantee that it will be foolproof?"
Fang Ming vowed solemnly: "Don't worry, President Xie, I sent someone to invite two casual cultivators, both of whom are at the fifth level of Qi refining. With Li Mo's cultivation at the third level of Qi refining, he will definitely die. Moreover, those two casual cultivators are both I didn’t know it was us behind it.”
Xie Tao said: "Okay, this must be done flawlessly."
Li Feng listened to their conversation, and the more he listened, the more he felt something was wrong. Cold sweat broke out on his back. Thirty-six stratagems were the best ones. As soon as he turned around, he wanted to escape.
But Fang Ming had noticed him a long time ago. With his fourth level of Qi Refining cultivation, he was not something that a second level Qi Refining Leveler could escape.
"President Fang, spare your life!"
"Gah!"
Fang Ming twisted Li Feng's neck expressionlessly, and then held it in his hands. Because he was not as tall as Li Feng, Li Feng's feet were still dragging on the ground.
"Thank you, President, I'm going to do something right now."
Xie Tao waved his hand, and when Fang Ming closed the door, he sighed and said, "What a pity! What a pity!"
"Thank you, President!"
At this time, Wu Zhongxing's voice sounded outside the door.
The regret on Xie Tao's face disappeared and he said calmly: "Xiao Wu, please come in."
Wuzhong came in, cupped his hands to Xie Tao and said, "President, the business of the shop has been settled."
Xie Tao looked at Wu Zhongxing with relief and praised: "It was right to leave the business of the shop to you. It was done so quickly. It's a pity that your talent for refining...otherwise, when my life is over, I will create it by myself." Once the association is put into your hands, I will feel relieved."
Wu Zhongxing said: "President, I am not very talented in refining weapons, so in the meeting, I will handle more chores and let the weapon refining masters in the meeting practice more. This can make the association stronger and protect more casual practitioners." Weapon master.
Besides, there is also Taoist Li Mo. Please rest assured, President, if you give me more time, I will definitely convince Taoist Li Mo to join our association. "
Xie Tao had always been relieved about Wu Zhongxing's awakening. He smiled gently and said, "Xiao Wu, then Li Mo, you don't need to convince me."
Wu Zhongxing was startled: "President, what do you mean?"
Xie Tao's expression flashed unnaturally, but he still said in a deep voice: "During this period, the situation has become increasingly tense, and accidents will inevitably happen in the store. You should stay in charge of the store and handle emergencies."
Xie Tao's answer was not what was asked, which made Wu Zhongxing's heart completely sink. His expression darkened and he said slowly: "Did Vice President Fang tell you something?"
Xie Tao was speechless.
Wu Zhongxing turned around and said, "I'm going to find Vice President Fang."
Xie Tao suddenly stood up and shouted softly: "Xiao Wu, stop here."
Wu Zhongxing turned around and looked at Xie Tao intently. He felt as if a knife was twisting in his heart. He opened his mouth and finally asked: "President, is Fang Ming going to attack Li Mo?" ?”
Xie Tao pondered for a moment, lowered his eyes, and said slowly: "Xiao Wu, you have tried your best. That Li Mo is destined to have no chance with our association, but he...should never join Zhu Jiuming's weapon training association."
Wu Zhongxing already knew the answer, but it was still a bit hard to accept it when he heard Xie Tao admit it: "So, President, if you don't get it, will you destroy it? No, I discovered Li Mo and recommended it to the association." Yes, I can’t let Li Mo die because of me.”
Having made a decision in his heart, Wu Zhongxing felt that he could not waste time here, he had to stop Fang Ming.
Seeing that Wu Zhongxing was about to turn around and leave, Xie Tao became angry and said sternly: "Xiao Wu, do you still take me as the president of the association seriously? Stop right there. If you dare to leave the association today, don't force me to treat you. Take action."
Wu Zhongxing couldn't help but stop. He turned around and saw that Xie Tao's face had completely turned cold. A look of pain appeared on his face: "President, are you going to take action against me?"
Xie Tao said: "Xiao Wu, I am very optimistic about you, don't let me down."
For some reason, Wu Zhongxing breathed a sigh of relief in his heart, as if he had finally let go of something. He asked seriously: "President, do you still remember what you said to me when I joined the association? The association is yours." Do you still remember the concept that was created when the association was founded? Do you still remember the concept that you swore to every new person who joined the association?"
