Chapter 269 Three families form an alliance

Chapter 269 Three families form an alliance

Time flies by like a white horse, and another month and a half passes in a flash.

In the past month and a half, Chen Ling did not dare to waste any time, and worked hard every day to increase the time he spent with his wife and concubines.

His cultivation has also improved a lot. According to this progress, he will be able to enter the third stage of the Golden Core in another month.

The rest of the time is mainly spent refining elixirs.

Refining enough Yuan-Zeng Dan to increase the strength of Wang Yun and others as soon as possible.

In addition, I will try my best to collect the best spiritual stones with thunder attribute.

During this period, a total of five were received through Wang Xi Wanbao Tower’s channels.

Chen Ling used a fourth-level battle boat with a bow in exchange for it.

There are now a total of eight top-quality thunder-attribute spiritual stones in his hand, which is enough to activate the five-puppet thunder array and the thunder dragon puppet.

In terms of land reclamation, Zhao Yi, the ancestor of the Zhao family, also came to Pohu City and was making final preparations.

There is another most important thing. After Chen Ling informed Zhao Chanzhen of the information obtained by Li Jinshu, after some secret investigation, the Zhao family seemed to have discovered the clues.

Thanks to Chen Ling's help, the Zhao family and the Wang family also came into contact.

But what will happen in the end still needs to be decided by the two ancestors.

······．

The Jade Butterfly Mountain shrouded in light clouds and mist seems to be shrouded in a thin gauze, looming, and there is a vague artistic conception of a fairyland.

Chen family courtyard, a small courtyard on the left.

In the courtyard, an ancient pine tree measuring seven to eight feet tall has lush branches and leaves, providing a cool shade to the entire courtyard.

Under this gloomy green pine tree, two monks, a man and a woman, were sitting in meditation.

On the stone table in front of them was a small charcoal stove, with a pot of spiritual wine warming on it.

The alluring aroma of wine wafts in the cool breeze, and the light sunlight passes through the layers of pine leaves, casting circles of flickering light on the ground.

At this time, her belly was obviously bulging. The female cultivator, who was extremely beautiful and had a gentle expression, picked up the wine flask and poured a bowl for the male cultivator.

Wow!

The jade-like crystal clear spirit wine fell into the bowl, and its rich aroma spread out.

“Good wine!”

The elegant middle-aged man couldn't help but admire, picked up the bowl, and took a sip.

Gulu!

A large bowl of spiritual wine was swallowed in one gulp.

The middle-aged man has an elegant appearance and a peaceful temperament. At first glance, he gives the impression that he is an easy-going person.

The woman is none other than Zhao Chanzhen, who raised her baby in the Chen family.

The middle-aged monk stretched out his hand to wipe the corners of his mouth and laughed, "I didn't expect that the Chen family has such good wine!"

"Ancestor likes it. I'll ask Brother Ling for some jars later!" Zhao Chanzhen poured another bowl for the middle-aged man and said with a smile on his face.

The middle-aged monk looked at Zhao Chanzhen with a look of helplessness on his face, and said with a gentle smile, "Chen Ling, this kid, can repair the Thunder Mountain Seal. He is quite capable, and he is worthy of you, Zhen'er!"

At this moment, he spoke lightly, but in his heart he looked helpless.

He picked up the wine bowl and took two sips slowly.

The deal is already done, what else can he do.

Think about it, Zhao Chanzhen is the patriarch of the Huashen family, but now he is raising a baby in the Chen family with peace of mind.

What a huge loss this is to the Zhao family, especially now, which is the critical moment when preparing to kill the fifth-level monster.

When he came out of seclusion, he learned that Zhao Chanzhen was pregnant. He almost couldn't help but go to Jade Butterfly City and slap Chen Ling to death.

However, he was pleasantly surprised.

Even when Zhao Chanzhen was raising her baby, she did two major things.

Fixed the Thunder Mountain Seal and the ability to detect Cao and Du's intentions.

You must know that the Thunder Mountain Seal is related to the life and death of the Zhao family, if it weren't for Zhao Chanzhen's high prestige in the family.

He definitely would not take the risk of handing it over for repair at this point in time.

Although it was originally somewhat damaged, it was still capable of fighting.

However, fortunately, it was actually repaired!

With the Thunder Mountain Seal, the chance of killing the fifth-level monster increases greatly.

And with the power of the Thunder Mountain Seal, he also had the means to deal with the god-transforming monks.

This is a huge achievement!

Therefore, at this moment, I am gradually relieved that Zhao Chanzhen plans to marry Chen Ling.

As for Cao and Du, they have ulterior motives.

He had already been on guard, but he did not expect that Cao Weiye would enter Nascent Soul Dzogchen at this critical moment.

In this situation, it is easy for the greedy Cao family to feel that they can eat up the Zhao family in one bite.

Therefore, it is not surprising that there are many secret plans.

But the key now is how the Zhao family chooses.

The family has invested almost all resources over the years just to prepare to kill the fifth-level monster.

Never give up halfway.

But now, if the situation is slightly different, what awaits the Zhao family is a place of no return.

This time I came to the Chen family, on the one hand, to discuss the next situation with Zhao Chanzhen, and on the other hand, I wanted to meet the ancestor of the Wang family in Wanbao Tower.

Cooperating with the Wang family was just Chen Ling's suggestion.

Although considering the current situation of the Zhao family, it is a good choice.

But Patriarch Zhao, who has been practicing for 800 years and has a place in the turbulent environment of Lan Yue Sect.

How could he easily put his family's safety in danger and rely too much on the Chen family and the Wang family?

It can be said that it is not clear what the final relationship between the three parties will be.

"Brother Ling is serious, why haven't you come over yet!" Zhao Chanzhen pouted. He said with some dissatisfaction on his face.

"It doesn't matter! With this fine wine, Ancestor, I don't mind waiting a little longer!" Ancestor Zhao smiled and stopped.

Then drink up the spiritual wine in the bowl in one gulp!

For Chen Ling, he could turn Zhao Chanzhen, who had always been strong, decisive in killing, and full of wit, into such a little woman in a short period of time.

Zhao Yi also had to admire him.

Zhao Chanzhen naturally knew that Chen Ling must have been delayed by something, so without saying anything, he picked up the jug and continued to add wine to his ancestor.

As the time of delivery drew closer, she focused more on the fetus.

As for family matters, all the preparations that need to be made have been made!

What will happen in the future depends on the family's fighting strength!

"Hey! Why haven't you come yet?"

A quarter of an hour later, Zhao Chanzhen complained secretly in his heart that the jar of spiritual wine had reached the bottom!

"Why not add more?"

At this time, Old Ancestor Zhao asked with a smile.

Zhao Chanzhen looked embarrassed and said with a smile, "Ancestor, I will get you some wine right now."

As he spoke, he was about to gather his magic power and cast a spell.

"They have already brought it!"

Old Ancestor Zhao glanced around the outside of the courtyard and said calmly.

When Zhao Chanzhen heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned. He looked at the charcoal stove. On top of it, a white jade pot was placed silently on it.

The aroma of Silk Ling wine is exuding.

"this?"

Looking at the wine pot that suddenly appeared, a look of surprise appeared on Zhao Chan's pretty face.

Immediately, a stream of light roared from outside the courtyard, and a man in a green shirt quickly fell into the courtyard and saluted Zhao Yi with a cupped fist, "Junior Chen Ling, pay homage to the ancestor!"

"Brother Ling!"

Joy suddenly appeared on Zhao Chanzhen's face. As the delivery date got closer, she felt that she had to see Chen Ling every day to feel at ease!

Zhao Yi also smiled, looked at Chen Ling with satisfaction, and said with a smile, "No wonder I can practice the Thunder Mountain Seal, it turns out that my spiritual consciousness is no less than that of a Nascent Soul monk!"

Chen Ling was able to deliver the spirit wine to the table quietly, which shows the power of his soul.

Moreover, it is possible to repair the Thunder Mountain Seal in more than a month, and the soul may have already condensed the soul dharma.

Seeing that the ancestor didn't mean to blame Chen Ling at all, Zhao Chanzhen breathed a sigh of relief and poured a bowl of wine for Chen Ling with a smile.

It seems that the ancestor has no objection to her marrying into the Chen family.

Of course, even if she married into the Chen family, given the current situation, the Zhao family would not be able to do without her for a while.

Therefore, her next task is to get the Zhao and Chen families to cooperate fully.

Chen Ling raised his glass and said respectfully towards Zhao Yi, "Junior had something to do just now. I was delayed for a while and made my ancestor wait for a long time. I hereby punish myself with three drinks!"

Chen Ling's tone was sincere. As soon as he finished speaking, he grunted and drank a glass of wine in one gulp.

Zhao Chanzhen quickly poured him another glass.

"My family, there is no need to be so polite!"

"Having Zhen'er here with me is enough!"

Zhao Yi gave up and said indifferently.

Hearing this, Chen Ling felt slightly relieved. Zhao Yi's attitude undoubtedly showed that he cared about this meeting with the ancestor of the Wang family.

But it was normal to think about it. The fifth-level demon king was about to be exterminated, and now he suddenly learned that the Cao and Du families were going to interfere with it.

At this critical moment of life and death, any potential help cannot be ignored!

"Brother Ling, why hasn't Patriarch Wang arrived yet?"

Seeing Chen Ling punishing himself by drinking three glasses of wine, Zhao Chanzhen asked while pouring him wine.

She and Wang Xi had made an appointment, and their respective ancestors would meet here today.

Discuss cooperation among the three companies.

At this point in time, Patriarch Wang should have arrived!

"Just now, Xi'er told me in advance that Patriarch Wang had arrived, so I went to greet him. Unexpectedly, I still didn't see him after waiting for a long time."

"And you also spread rumors that the ancestor has arrived, so I rushed here in a hurry!"

Chen Ling said helplessly.

The two ancestors were almost stuck at this time, so neither of them could connect.

"Brother Ling, the origin of this Wang family is quite mysterious. What is its specific strength?"

Zhao Chanzhen's expression became solemn. The eight aristocratic families in Wanbao Tower had always been low-key and mysterious. Even the Zhao family didn't know much about them.

Seeing Zhao Yi and Zhao Chanzhen looking at each other, Chen Ling shook his head and said with a bitter smile, "Except for Xi'er, I have never been in contact with anyone else in the Wang family!"

"Xi'er mentioned to me that our ancestor is a late-stage Nascent Soul monk."

As for Ancestor Wang being the reincarnation of the original ancestor of the Wang family of Lan Yue Sect, Wang Xi has repeatedly warned that no one else should know about this.

Naturally, it was impossible for him to tell Zhao Yi and the others.

"Later stage of Nascent Soul!"

Hearing this, Zhao Yi's eyes narrowed slightly, he took a sip of wine and muttered for a moment, "The Cao and Du families are both old-fashioned Shen-transformation families, especially the Cao family. There is an ancestor who is in the middle stage of Shen-transformation. Now Cao Weiye He has entered the Nascent Soul Great Consummation again, and his strength is much stronger than our Zhao family."

Zhao Chanzhen's expression also became slightly solemn.

Obviously, this time the fifth-level monster was killed because of the calculations of the Cao and Du families, which put the Zhao family into an extremely passive situation.

"Middle stage of divine transformation!"

Chen Ling also exclaimed slightly.

Zhao Yi put down the wine bowl, looked solemn, and continued, "In my current state, with the help of the Thunder Mountain Seal, I can barely block three attacks from Patriarch Cao, but that's all."

"As for Patriarch Du and the Nascent Soul cultivators from the other two families, even if the three of us unite, we are far from their match!"

Leaving aside the Du family, just Cao Weiye who entered the Nascent Soul Dzogchen was enough to kill the others.

After all, the late Nascent Soul and Yuanying Dzogchen are at a higher level. It is difficult for three late Yuanying monks to defeat one Yuanying Dzogchen monk.

Zhao Chanzhen frowned slightly, thought for a moment, and asked, "Ancestor, if it doesn't work, why don't we change our plan and let the Cao family deal with this fifth-level demon king?"

Zhao Yi shook his head, picked up the jug, poured a bowl of wine by himself, and said calmly, "For this land reclamation, our Zhao family has invested a lot of resources, and we have achieved the current situation."

"Regardless of success or failure, this opportunity to kill the fifth-level demon king must not be missed."

"Otherwise, all the resources we invest this time will be used to make wedding clothes for the Cao family!"

It took more than two years to open up the wasteland. Although six fourth-level monsters were killed, four Nascent Soul cultivators also died, and more than twenty Golden Core cultivators died.

The Zhao family has absolutely no ability to launch another land reclamation on such a scale.

Zhao Chanzhen heard this, rubbed his forehead, and fell into deep thought.

Hearing the conversation between the two, Chen Ling's mouth twitched slightly. According to this statement, the Zhao family is in a dilemma.

If we continue to kill the fifth-level monsters as planned, we can predict that the casualties will be considerable.

Even if they win in the end, how much fighting power will be left to deal with the Cao and Du families?

But if they withdraw, once the Cao family kills this fifth-level monster, it is very likely that another god-transforming monk will appear in the next hundred years.

After that, there will be nothing more to do with the Zhao family!

Of course, if the Zhao family is willing to give up the resources they have now and leave Lanyue City with their clan members, they may be able to survive.

Cao Weiye, who had just entered the Nascent Soul Great Consummation, was able to block it for a while with the help of the Thunder Dragon Puppet and the Void Fire Cauldron.

But naturally he would not force himself on such an uncertain matter.

At this time, Zhao Yi looked up at the distant sky, his eyes were focused, and he said lightly, "Since Fellow Daoist Wang is here, why don't you come over for a drink!"

When Chen Ling and Zhao Chanzhen heard this, their eyes followed Zhao Yi's gaze and looked to the sky.

"Fellow Daoist Zhao has extraordinary methods. You noticed it as soon as I arrived!"

A deep voice came from the air, and a stream of white light quickly flew towards Jade Butterfly City.

Within a few breaths, a figure in white appeared in the sky.

A man in white who looked to be in his sixties slowly fell into the small courtyard.

This man was short in stature and had an ordinary appearance, but his eyes were bright and his aura was reserved. No one could tell that he was a late Nascent Soul cultivator.

"Ancestor!"

Outside the yard, another stream of light fell beside the man. It was Wang Xi who came.

This shows that she bowed her hands to the old man with respect.

"Junior Chen Ling pays homage to our ancestor!"

Chen Ling also hurriedly stood up and saluted with his hands in hand.

Although the two ancestors spoke politely just now, two powerful air currents were emerging from the white blade in Chen Ling's sea of ​​consciousness.

These two air currents are exactly the energy revealed by Patriarch Zhao and Patriarch Wang.

Obviously both sides were wary of each other.

"Fellow Daoist Wang, since you are here, let's sit down and have a few drinks!"

Zhao Yi clasped his fists and said calmly.

In the current situation, it is obvious that the Zhao family needs the help of the Wang family even more.

"My Excellency, Wang Zuyuan, has met Fellow Daoist Zhao and asked Fellow Daoist Zhao to wait for a long time. We happened to encounter an accident on the way!"

Patriarch Wang returned the favor and then sat down on the stone bench opposite Zhao Yi.

Chen Ling quickly set up the bowls and poured in the spirit wine.

The man in front of me is an old monster who has lived for thousands of years!

Wang Xi and Zhao Chanzhen also moved the stone benches and sat down behind Chen Ling.

They are not able to participate in this situation now.

"Ling'er is indeed a hero among men. He is already an early-stage Golden Core cultivator at the age of less than fifty!"

"I am optimistic that you will be able to condense the Nascent Soul within a hundred years, and that you will be able to walk on the Avenue to Heaven within five hundred years."

Wang Zuyuan glanced at Chen Ling and said with praise.

After coming out of seclusion, he learned that Wang Ximai and Chen Ling were married, and he immediately learned something about the Chen family and Chen Ling.

Because originally, whether it was dealing with the Demonic Cultivator or the Forging Alliance, Wang Yun was mostly the main force.

So he didn't know much about Chen Ling.

But a small casual cultivator can make Wang Yun, a golden elixir sword cultivator, marry into the Chen family. This is an ability in itself.

And Wang Xi was trained by him, not to mention having a higher eye than the top, but even if he is the proud son of Lan Yue Sect, she may not like him, let alone commit herself to him.

Through Wang Yun and Wang Xi, he could naturally see that Chen Ling seemed to have a good handle on women.

Now there is Zhao Chanzhen, whose belly is already bulging.

"Is this kid just lucky?"

At this moment, even the thousand-year-old monster had to lament Chen Ling's good fortune.

He often pays attention to the situation of Lan Yue Sect, and he naturally knows Zhao Chanzhen's status in the Zhao family and Lan Yue Sect.

If you can enter Nascent Soul, you will most likely become the leader of the Moon Reaching Sect in the future.

Such women are willing to give birth to children for Chen Ling.

This is incredible!

No matter how clever Chen Ling is, it is impossible to deceive these outstanding women who are far more intelligent than ordinary monks one after another!

That can only mean that they are sincerely marrying Chen Ling!

Of course, to him who has lived for a long time, these are nothing but clouds.

Unable to cross the realm of becoming a god, no matter how many wives and concubines you have, they are just for temporary enjoyment and have little meaning!

"Grandpa, thank you!"

Chen Ling cupped his hands and replied.

"I just heard fellow Taoist Zhao mentioned that with the help of the Thunder Mountain Seal, we can block Cao Yuntian's three strikes. I don't think so about this!"

Wang Zuyuan picked up the wine bowl and took a sip. Then he glanced at Zhao Yi and said calmly.

When Zhao Yi heard this, he was slightly startled. It seemed that he discovered Wang Zuyuan too late!

Then he cupped his hands, forced out a smile and asked, "Why does Fellow Daoist Wang say that?"

Although he is a Yuanying Dzogchen monk, he is confident that with the help of the Thunder Mountain Seal, he can block Cao Yuntian's three attacks.

Wang Zuyuan took his time, drank the spiritual wine in the bowl, and then said with a smile, "Unknown to you, fellow Taoist Zhao, Cao Yuntian is injured in his body. It has been difficult to maintain the state of the middle stage of divine transformation in recent years."

"Once he takes action with all his strength and triggers injuries in his body, his level will continue to decline and his injuries will worsen."

"So with his current timid nature, he definitely doesn't dare to fight you with all his strength!"

When Zhao Yi heard this, he was stunned again, shook his head, and seemed not to believe what Ancestor Wang said, and said in a deep voice, "Ancestor Cao has not taken action for a long time, and I don't know what the situation is now!"

"If you don't believe it, I can just let me deal with Cao Yuntian then!" Wang Zuyuan said with determination.
