Chapter 184 Influence
The sky in Shangyang City has changed!
Seeing the monks from the Wu family arrogantly sending invitations to each family to attend the Golden Elixir Ceremony of their ancestors, everyone came up with this idea again.
Who would have thought that the Wu family, which was on the verge of death just three months ago, would take over without paying attention.
For a time, an undercurrent surged in Shangyang City.
Many casual cultivators took the initiative to apply to become disciples of the Wu family.
The front door of Wu Mansion was bustling with people, which was in sharp contrast to the previous days when they were eager to put aside their relationship quickly.
Several factions even made bold bets and secretly moved closer to Patriarch Wu, hoping to become a hero of Conglong when the Wu family was short of manpower.
After all, Patriarch Wu had broken through the golden elixir, so he had to do something to get some benefits back from the City Lord's Mansion and Master Yu.
In the eyes of many people, Patriarch Wu's Golden Elixir Ceremony is a signal.
If there were many people supporting Patriarch Wu, it might be possible to form a group of people in Shangyang City that could compete with Yu Zhenren.
In the past, Yu Zhenren's family was the only one in power, and the city lord's palace controlled the whole city. As a result, the tax department would investigate whoever they wanted, and would confiscate homes and exterminate clans at every turn, making everyone very insecure.
After all, no one is serious and abiding by the rules these days.
This also means that as long as the tax department wants to investigate someone, it will definitely find a reason and there will be no chance to resist.
Just like the Wu family before.
After all, the Wu family is one of the top eight immortal cultivating families, and is also the director of the alchemy department. They won it right away without even a warning.
If Patriarch Wu hadn't broken through the golden elixir, the Wu Mansion would have been burned to ashes by now.
Everyone did not think that Patriarch Wu would become the number one person in Shangyang City as soon as he broke through, but at least he was on the same level as Master Yu and had the qualifications to talk on an equal footing.
Master Yu is not easy to get close to, but Patriarch Wu is a monk born and raised in Shangyang City. Over a hundred years, he has interacted with too many people.
In other words, as long as they are willing, they can always find some connections and reasons to meet Patriarch Wu.
With Patriarch Wu as the representative of the local forces, it means that the local forces have a real core and pillar.
With a single family, everyone has to be a grandson.
But if the two families compete, there will be room for the people below to move and grow.
Many people are looking forward to Patriarch Wu's Golden Elixir Ceremony, and are also waiting for Master Yu's reaction.
In just one month.
People in Shangyang City have become impetuous.
…
But these things have nothing to do with the leisure time of fishing in the small courtyard.
He just spread out a handful of bait. Whether any fish can take the bait depends entirely on the fish's personal understanding.
"Mr., those people are so annoying. They spread unreliable rumors all day long. Sister Shiwen caught several examples and couldn't stop them."
Yu Lan sat next to Yu Xian, frowning, looking worried and not knowing what to do.
I don’t know who spread the rumor first.
It is said that Master Yu will probably remove the position of General Manager Yu Xian in order to befriend Patriarch Wu.
The rumors were as if they were heard by people around Yu Zhenren, and they aroused the recognition of many people.
Yu Lan is naturally not worried about Yu Zhenren.
She was worried that if this continued, her husband's prestige would be lost.
Yu Xian was half lying on the deck chair, staring at the fish float in the small pond, and said indifferently:
"As long as it's not too much and your mouth is on them, let them say whatever they want."
Seeing that her husband didn't care about such a trivial matter, Yulan suddenly thought of something and said angrily:
"Also, the monks from the Wu family are so annoying. Isn't it because an ancestor broke through the golden elixir? Yesterday, there was a monk from the Wu family who molested sister Shiwen.
There were many people watching at that time. Sister Shiwen was so angry that her face turned red, but there was nothing she could do to them. Moreover, she was afraid of causing trouble for her husband, so she didn't let me tell you. "
"But I knew that you must have something to do, so I didn't listen to her."
"You did the right thing. You are the grown-up woman. How can you listen to a concubine?"
The smile on Yu Xian's face faded, and there was no emotion or anger in his voice.
"This matter will be resolved soon, and then there won't be so much gossip in your ears."
Regarding the fact that Patriarch Wu was one of his own, he did not tell the third person, not even Yulan.
After all, secrets are no longer secrets if they have a third party.
He believed that Yulan would not reveal the secret.
But now that Yulan is working in the Taxation Department, there are many people with mixed eyes. If he is tricked, most of his fishing plans will fail.
As for the reason why the Wu family monks were so bold, it was naturally because Patriarch Wu kept the secret very well.
Another possibility is that Patriarch Wu deliberately indulged.
He had revealed in front of him more than once that he wanted to straighten out the family tradition.
This Golden Elixir Ceremony is a good touchstone.
Those Wu family members who bully others and ruin their family tradition will most likely be sent back to the clan by Patriarch Wu to be used as breeding pigs.
As for killing, I will definitely not kill too many. At most, I will kill one or two to serve as a warning to others.
After all, we are all members of our own family. Even if we make mistakes, we are still members of our own family.
But now there is a monk from the Wu family who bullies his woman. Apparently the monks from the Wu family have been very distracted recently, thinking that with an ancestor who is in the Golden Core realm, he can walk away in Shangyang City.
Then Patriarch Wu's reorganization this time is destined to be much bloody.
Those members of the Wu family who were about to be sentenced to death would not have thought that their death was just because of a few teases from some mean-mouthed clan members.
Yu Xian shook his head secretly.
It was his own fault. He originally didn't want to get involved in other people's family affairs, but if someone messed with him, he was destined to pay the price.
But naturally she would not say these words to Yulan.
And Yulan laughed happily when she heard Yu Xian's compliment.
"I knew my husband must have a way."
She stood up, the sorrow in her brows swept away, leaned over and pecked Yu Xian's face gently, and then walked out happily.
"Ms. sir, it's my turn to be on duty today. I'll leave first."
"go Go."
Yu Xian waved his hands lazily and huddled on the recliner, feeling a little tired.
He has not wasted his time these days, but is working hard to understand the golden elixir magical power of the promotion.
Today's deception technique is already an eighth-level magical power.
Because he understood it with the spiritual energy of heaven and forcibly improved it, even Yu Xian himself had only a partial understanding of it.
But after nearly a month of reflection.
He has mastered the new magical powers.
After all, it was his golden elixir magical power, but because it improved too quickly, it seemed a bit unfamiliar, but it was also very fast to re-understand it.
Originally, the function of the Heaven-Deceiving Technique was simply to collect Qi and hide the breath. Even if it could deceive Master Jin Dan, it was just an enhanced version of the Qi-Condensing Technique.
But the current deception technique is moving forward in the direction of Qi gathering technique.
No matter how he concentrated his Qi before, the monk's Qi could not be hidden. At most, he would change from golden elixir to foundation building, and foundation building to Qi training.
But at this moment, he can completely transform into a mortal, and no one can see the traces of cultivation on him.
It feels... useless.
However, from the ninth level to the eighth level, they are all lower than the third level magical powers. There is not much difference between them, so the requirements cannot be too high.
Yu Xian was also vaguely aware of another reason.
That is because his foundation is too weak and his accumulation is not enough.
Therefore, even if there is an opportunity like the Heavenly Dao Spiritual Energy, the potential of that insight cannot be truly unleashed.
As the saying goes, a wise woman cannot make a meal without rice.
Even if he directly transformed into Einstein, he would not be able to deduce the theory of relativity with elementary school knowledge. He had to go through a systematic learning process and accumulate enough knowledge before the theory of relativity could be born.
If he wants to truly transform the art of deception into what he dreams of, daily accumulation is essential.
"However, this newly learned art of concealing breath and concealing spirits can be used in my formation.
If there is almost no spiritual energy fluctuation when the formation is activated, unexpected effects will naturally be achieved.
By the time……"
Yu Xian couldn't help but think about it.
Right now.
There was a knock on the door outside the house.
Yu Xian thought Yulan had forgotten something, but when he scanned it with his consciousness, he found an unfamiliar face.
He got up and opened the door.
"Fellow Taoist looks quite unfamiliar, what's the matter?"
Yu Xian behaved quite politely.
In his daily life, he has always been a very polite and gentle person.
Only when dealing with those who make him unhappy will he show an extremely bad background.
After all, he is petty and if he is disgusted by others, he must be disgusted back.
But he never thought that the visitor looked at Yu Xian with disdain, rushed in, looked around, looked at the rather simple and simple courtyard, and sneered:
“I didn’t expect that Daoist Fellow Lan’s home would be so simple, and I didn’t expect that Fellow Daoist Lan’s husband would be a pretty boy.
I heard that you stay at home all day and rely solely on fellow Taoist Lan for support. You only eat and drink with the best spiritual food. As a result, fellow Taoist Lan cannot make ends meet. The building is undergoing major renovations, and the captain of the taxation department actually wants to accompany you. Squeezed into a small courtyard like this.
Don't you feel ashamed? "
Yu Xian was stunned at first, thinking that he was some kind of admirer of Yu Lan.
After all, his current personality is that of a home repairman. He rarely goes out on weekdays, so naturally he has little income.
In the eyes of the neighbors, it was Yulan, a woman who went out early and came home late, who supported the family.
Although the attitude of the fellow Taoist in front of him was not very polite, it was generally considered to be a kind of advice that was hard on his ears and inspired him to work hard.
But who has his spare time?
Don't say that the current persona is fake, even if it is real, he can still say frankly and loudly: "I am not ashamed."
"You! Shameless! How can you let a woman support you?!"
The visitor didn't expect that Yu Xian could eat soft food so contentedly.
"If you still have some dignity as a man and some love for fellow Taoist Lan, you should take the initiative to leave her and let her embrace a better future!"
Yu Xian's expression turned cold, and his voice became a little chillier.
"Who the hell are you? You have nothing to do with my housework. I can make the foundation-building overhaul serve me without complaint.
That's my ability, why should I be ashamed?
You, on the other hand, burst into my house out of nowhere to teach me a lesson. Believe it or not, I will sound the alarm now, and when the law enforcement team comes, I will make you walk around without food. "
He didn't want to ruin his peaceful personality and life because of someone who didn't know what he meant.
When the visitor heard the law enforcement team, he sneered:
"Law enforcement team? Hey, I'm so scared. Do you know what my surname is?"
Without waiting for Yu Xian to ask questions, he said impatiently:
“My surname is Wu, Wu Zhenren’s name is Wu, and the ancestor of the Wu family, Wu Zhenren, is my great-grandfather.
Even if you give the law enforcement team a hundred courages, they will not dare to touch a hair of my young master. "
"I believe fellow Taoist Lan must have mentioned my name, Wu Yi, to you."
"Originally, I wanted to persuade you as an ordinary person to leave Fellow Daoist Lan, but now I am giving you two choices.
Either you leave Fellow Daoist Lan and promise not to appear in front of Fellow Daoist Lan in the future, or I will personally send you to the prison of the law enforcement team. "
Yu Xian pretended to be surprised.
"You, you can actually mobilize the law enforcement team?"
Wu Yi said quite proudly: "The law enforcement team is nothing, before long, the tax department will all belong to our Wu family.
If you are afraid, just be obedient and cooperate with me and fellow Taoist Lan to achieve good things, and I can still give you a way to survive.
Otherwise, I will prevent you from seeing the sun tomorrow. As a young master, even if someone dies, it will be the same as squeezing an ant to death. "
Damn it, you actually dare to come in front of him and be disgusting, and you want to rape him.
Yu Xian made up his mind that whenever Patriarch Wu asked his unfilial descendants even a small favor, he would personally dig out Patriarch Wu's golden elixir.
Just in time to test whether the golden elixir of the fake elixir monk can be reused.
Yu Xian sounded the warning siren, and the beeping sound suddenly became louder.
"I don't believe there is no reason or rules in this world?!"
But Wu Yi just crossed his arms and sneered.
soon.
The law enforcement team came, and the monk leading the team was named Jiang Lu. The new founder of the Jiang family was also a direct member of the Jiang family and a confidant of Jiang Wang.
He glanced at Yu Xian, his eyes flickering, obviously following the orders from above.
However, he didn't know Yu Xian's specific identity, but he just told him to take more care of him.
But he immediately heard Wu Yi announcing his family status, and he couldn't help but hesitate a little, but still waved his hand.
"Take it!"
It is true that the Wu family is in great prosperity, but Zhenren Wu still has no control over him.
Wu Yi was held down by two monks from the law enforcement team, one on the left and one on the right. The mana in his Dantian was blocked, and he immediately started to struggle.
"You have arrested the wrong person, it is better to arrest him!"
But the team led by Jiang Lu were all his confidants, and they would not change their stance just because of a name.
"Do you fucking know who I am? My ancestor is Zhenren Wu! My ancestor is Zhenren Wu!"
Wu Yi yelled crazily.
"Seal his mouth and take him away until the Wu family comes to pick him up. What can the Wu family do? Can they break into a private house without permission?"
Jiang Lu gave the order and his ears immediately fell silent.
He escorted Wu Yi out and shouted loudly to the monks who were standing around in twos and threes watching the excitement:
"Listen up, private residences are protected by the City Lord's Mansion and the Law Enforcement Department. If anyone breaks in without authorization, they will be dealt with strictly!
This person broke into a private house and wanted to hurt someone. He will be detained immediately and severely punished! "
After that, he escorted the people towards the direction of the Law Enforcement Department.
There was a lot of discussion and pointing outside the small courtyard. The protagonists of the story cannot do without Yu Xian and Yulan.
Yu Xian closed the door, a cold light flashed in his eyes.
The atmosphere is almost set, and then the show officially begins.
Of course, he would never admit that this was retaliation.
Three days later.
The Golden Elixir Ceremony of Patriarch Wu was officially held, and Yu Xian was invited to participate as Yulan's family member.
