Chapter 179 Free days
The sky is dawning.
Shangyang Mountain.
Yu Xian stood at the highest point, overlooking the entire Shangyang City, feeling a bit empty and confused for the first time in a long time.
After breaking through the golden elixir, his strength has been greatly improved, and he has essentially become the number one person in Shangyang City.
No need for any backer, no need to borrow anyone’s reputation.
He stood here, already invincible.
Master Jin Dan has a life span of 500 years. He is a real ancestor. In his previous life, he could have watched the rise and fall of two or three dynasties.
Even in the world of immortality, he is the backbone of the major sects and has a certain say.
But he didn't have much excitement.
Human desire is a bottomless abyss.
Although Yu Xian often talks about being content and happy, he has always been very greedy.
Higher cultivation, longer life, better enjoyment, more women, more beautiful scenery...
He wants too many things.
It’s just that my previous strength didn’t allow it.
If he was really satisfied with a peaceful life, he would have stayed in Yue Kingdom, and maybe he could have become the Supreme Emperor.
A lifespan of a hundred or more decades is enough to enjoy things that most ordinary people have never enjoyed in a lifetime.
But he came back anyway.
Because what he wants cannot be satisfied by staying in the mortal world, just like the current immortal world in Shangyang City can no longer meet his needs.
Take the simplest example.
There are not many female nuns in this city who can attract him.
After all, it is still a small place with few resources, and the ceiling for the quality of female cultivators is there.
Just like the beauties in small counties can only be found in a hundred, beauties in big cities can be seen everywhere, and their quality is frighteningly high. They are often highly educated, capable and good-looking.
Now Shangyang City has changed from the fairy city in his mind to a worthless country bumpkin.
As a result, he had to choose from thousands of girls if he wanted to sleep with him, but in the end he was still not satisfied.
He can be poorly fed and poorly clothed.
Only for sleeping, the quality cannot be lowered, and pure quantity can no longer satisfy him.
Otherwise, why would he practice so hard?
The rising sun in the distance rises from the plains, and the warm morning light falls on the earth.
Yu Xian slowly raised his head, looked into the distance, smiled slightly, and ended his journey of questioning.
Confusion is a terrible thing, it will kill your will, waste your time, and make everything worse.
Only by knowing what you want can you determine the path you want to take.
"But if you want to leave Shangyang City, you have to cross the Ten Thousand Demons Mountains. Even if it's just a small branch of it, the danger still exists.
Besides, I have to take Yulan and Luo Han with me.
So to be on the safe side, it would be best to wait for the Xuanyang Sect's Chamber of Commerce to come over and hitch a ride with them, which would only last for more than thirty years. "
"Now that there is a third-level spirit gathering array, as well as the elixir Luo Han refined with the demon elixir, there is no need to worry about Yu Lan and Luo Han's cultivation progress being too slow for the time being.
In addition, while Shangyang City is still my territory, I can also take the opportunity to let the two of them practice.
These two guys are just like me, greenhouse flowers. They have never experienced serious fighting. It is destined to be difficult to break through the golden elixir in the future.
Moreover, the six relatives of Lei Jie are not recognized, and they cannot withstand it without any strength. They are not evildoers like Chen Yi.
If you think about it carefully, they might really be struck to death by lightning in the future. "
Yu Xian suddenly became excited and thought that this matter was inevitable.
Although Yu Lan was not very qualified at the beginning, he almost prepared the best foundation building conditions, but she still failed to break through.
Later, I went to the Yuezhen Sect and practiced with him for two years. After my mind and mana were condensed, I successfully broke through.
This incident proves that even if there are sufficient resources, it does not mean that a breakthrough will be successful.
Mind, belief, and opportunity are all important.
After all, not everyone is as confident as he is.
…
Tax Division.
Everyone discovered that a gentle and pleasant female monk had appeared in the archives at some time. She had a gentle personality, was kind to others, and was beautiful. She treated everyone like a spring breeze.
Within a few days of arriving, she ranked among the top three in the private ranking list of female cultivators in the Taxation Department.
Of course, this is not the most important thing.
The key thing is that this female monk is said to be a good sister of Deputy Director Zhao. Some people saw her and Deputy Director Zhao leaving get off work arm in arm, and they were very close.
This is amazing.
Who doesn't know that Deputy Director Zhao is the head of the Taxation Department, and as long as she raises her hand, she can decide whether to keep a Foundation Establishment Pill or not.
As we all know, Deputy Director Zhao is cold and ruthless. Not everyone has pursued her without fear of death before.
And Deputy Director Zhao will only refuse once.
If there is a second time, the person you are pursuing will never appear again, and even the family master behind him will be hit to varying degrees.
After several lessons, Deputy Director Zhao no longer had any suitors.
But this new female monk can do it. If she can be pursued, she will be related to Deputy Director Zhao.
Even the staff of the Taxation Department with formal establishment are very excited about this.
This day.
In front of the Tax Department.
A handsome young man with a shiny face was waiting at the door. When he saw the girl coming out, he hurriedly walked forward.
"Miss Lan, I heard that a spiritual food master has come to Wei Xian Building. He is the best at a mountain stream. I wonder if I would be honored to invite you to taste it?"
The girl is petite and always seems to have a slight smile on her face, especially her eyes, which are as clear as spring water, with a bit of innocence and beauty.
Surprisingly, it is Yulan whose pseudonym is Lanyu.
Seeing how bold the young man was, Yulan frowned slightly, shook her head and said:
"Thanks, but I don't know you."
The young man smiled lightly: "We got to know each other after dinner."
Yulan still declined politely: "I heard that it is difficult to make an appointment for the spiritual food master."
"It doesn't matter, my Wu family is one of the owners of Wei Xian Restaurant, so there is no need to make an appointment."
The young man revealed his background inadvertently.
"Wu family? Is it the Wu family of the alchemy department?"
Magnolia asked.
The young man smiled proudly: "Exactly, I am Wu Yi, the great-great-grandson of our ancestor."
Yulan looked at the young man with strange eyes and said something.
"I have a husband-in-law."
Ignoring the young man who suddenly froze, Yulan passed him and walked towards the civilian area.
"Miss Lan, I really sincerely want to make friends with you."
The young man chased after him.
Yulan stopped paying attention to him and just walked on her own.
The young man did not give up, and followed Yu Lan, constantly showing his hospitality.
while walking.
Magnolia stopped in front of a small courtyard.
"Miss Lan, you..."
Bang!
The courtyard door was closed, and the young man was stopped outside the courtyard. He almost got frustrated. He couldn't help but look at the small courtyard bitterly and remember its house number.
"You can't even afford to live in the Fu area, so what's the point of being reserved!"
"If it weren't for the fact that you have some relationship with the deputy director, you still dare to reject me! When I find out where you are coming from, I will make you kneel down to beg me."
In his eyes, there is nothing to be afraid of such a monk who lives in a house in a civilian area. He is probably an outside friend of the deputy director who got a favor from the tax department.
Even if he did do something, for the sake of the Wu family, Deputy Director Zhao could only treat him lightly.
There will be no vacuum in power.
The new city lord is a mindless puppet who lets his subordinates do what they want. The real boss has free time and does nothing. Zhao Shiwen is already in charge of the tax department.
As a result, most of the power in the city was divided up among departments controlled by major aristocratic families, who naturally rushed to benefit their own people.
Even in the eyes of many young people of the new generation, they already only know the aristocratic family, but not the City Lord's Mansion and the General Manager.
Only those who are truly sensible know who they give the spiritual stones they earn every year.
If you don't feed someone, how can they have a relaxed and happy life.
It just so happened that the young man was a young temporary worker who had just joined the Taxation Department. He was planning to hang out for a few years, get a good relationship, and get a foundation-building pill.
Anyway, it’s public welfare, don’t give it up in vain.
…
Small yard.
As soon as the courtyard door is closed, it seems to be a small private world.
A fishing rod was propped next to a lazy young man lying on a rocking chair, and lying at his feet was a small white tiger, already the size of an adult wolfdog.
There were several silver-white fish swimming in the pool with fish hooks hanging down, enjoying the coolness under the lotus leaves.
Seeing Yulan go home a little unhappy, Yu Xian put down the fishing rod and asked with a smile:
"What's wrong?"
Yu Lan did not hide anything and told Yu Xian what happened before without saying a word.
"Ms. sir, otherwise I'd better come back. Now every day, people come to the archives in different ways to talk to me, making it impossible for me to work.
I told you that I have a husband, but they still come to bother me. "
Yu Xian sat on his lap holding Yu Lan, resting his head on her shoulder, smelling the good smell on her body, and said with a smile:
"Doesn't this just mean that you are attractive? But since you find it annoying, let's transfer you into the combat team in advance and take action in advance.
Originally, the archives room was for you to familiarize yourself with the situation. When Ms. Lan Yu, a foundation-building major cultivator, shows off her power, they will retreat in the face of difficulties.
If there are still some reckless people, Shiwen will help you deal with these minor problems. "
Yu Lan showed a sweet smile, nodded and said:
"Yes, it will shock their eyes when the time comes."
"Hey, if I weren't worried that you wouldn't be able to survive the thunder tribulation in the future, I really want to keep you like this for the rest of my life, so that I don't have to worry anymore."
Yu Xian sighed.
Yu Lan quickly said: "It's okay, sir, I know you are doing it for our own good. And the two years I spent in the Yuezhen Sect were not in vain.
This little trouble is not a problem for me.
I can definitely do it. "
Yu Xian pinched Yulan's bulging face and encouraged:
"I have always believed that you can do it. In order to stimulate your motivation, I will not give you a spiritual stone now, and I will ask you to support me.
From now on, whether we drink porridge or eat meat, it all depends on you. "
Hearing this, Yu Lan suddenly felt an infinite sense of responsibility in her heart. She clenched her fists and said seriously:
"Don't worry, sir, I won't let you down."
…
the next day.
Blue sky and white clouds, sunny weather.
Yu Lan put on the tax department's combat black uniform, which was a women's uniform designed by a specialist. Even though the delicate Magnolia wears it, it still looks a little more heroic.
She looked up at the plaque with the two characters "Wu Fu" written on it, and waved back.
Now she is the deputy captain of the Third Temporary Work Brigade of the Taxation Department, with three ten-person teams under her.
"Come and pick up people, resisters..."
Yulan hesitated for a moment, then said:
"Kill without mercy."
Having spent time fighting in the Yuezhen Sect, she knew that a woman's kindness would only hurt her own people.
"yes!"
A group of temporary workers like wolves and tigers directly knocked open the door of Wu Mansion.
"The Taxation Department is doing business, and the idle people are avoiding it!"
For temporary workers, completing tasks and receiving meritorious services are the most important things in the world. Other than that, everything about the Wu family and the Jiang family is nonsense.
"What's going on, what's going on?!"
The old concierge was surprised at first, and then angry.
"Which team are you on? Don't you know where this is?"
This familiar scene reminded the old man of the time when the tax department broke into the Wu family more than ten years ago. In the end, thanks to the intervention of his ancestor, he walked away in despair.
The old man suddenly gained confidence and his voice became louder.
"Who is your person in charge? Come and talk to me?"
Yulan was still hesitating about what to say, but a cold middle-aged man beside her had already drawn his sword and moved forward.
Whoosh!
A bright light cut through the space.
The old concierge only had time to summon the magic weapon, and the protective magic shield on his body shattered like glass, and a line of blood appeared on his face.
This middle-aged man turned out to be a tyrannical body cultivator.
"you?!"
The old concierge looked at the middle-aged man in shock, with some disbelief in his eyes, as if he couldn't believe that he died like this.
But he couldn't say anything.
Wow!
The old man's body was separated in two, and blood flowed out.
At close range, if a physical cultivator wants to kill an unsuspecting monk of the same level, it should not be too easy.
"Disrespect to the superior officer is a capital offense!"
The middle-aged monk cupped his hands towards Yulan and said:
"The person blocking the road is dead. My subordinate Wang Wu is asking for instructions from the captain."
Yulan was stunned for a moment, her voice a little dry.
"continue."
She didn't even react to the middle-aged monk's sword just now.
Of course, no matter how fast his knife is, he can't break her body-protecting spiritual power. This is a huge gap in realm that cannot be made up by a little speed.
"continue!"
The middle-aged monk roared and drew his sword forward.
"Everyone should be captured without mercy, otherwise they will be killed without mercy!"
Following this loud roar, hundreds of monks suddenly rose into the air around the Wu family's residence, including five or six foundation-building monks, surrounding the Wu family.
Not to mention the monks hiding in secret.
"The Taxation Department is handling the case, and those who resist will be killed without mercy!"
The sounds overlapped and sounded like thunder, resounding over the entire Wu family. Even the residents around the Wu family were alarmed and came out to watch the fun.
"what happened?"
"You're blind. You didn't see a big sign like the Taxation Department. The Wu family was in its prime a few days ago, but now it's being targeted by the Taxation Department. This time, I'm afraid you'll have to shed your skin even if you don't die."
"I can't help but look at the tax department's attitude. It's enough to confiscate homes."
"Impossible, what is the status of the Wu family? The top immortal cultivating family in the city, Patriarch Wu is the director of the alchemy department. His cultivation is said to have reached the peak of foundation building, and is only one step away from the golden elixir master.
No matter how powerful the tax department is, can it still touch the Wu family?
I heard that Deputy Director Zhao has not yet established his foundation. "
"Brother, I don't know, but there is a real person behind the tax department. The Zhou family's huge business back then was not destroyed overnight by the real person.
I heard that the Zhou family's land was almost taken away, and it has been very difficult these past few years. "
"No matter how strong the Wu family is, how does it compare to the Zhou family back then?"
"So, the Wu family is also doomed?"
"It doesn't matter who dies, I just hope that the pills sold to me in the future will be cheaper."
