Chapter 297 Zhou Hongshang’s decision and becoming the guest minister of Qi Alliance

Redwood Peak is a main peak in the south of Guiyun City. It belongs to the Zhou family of the Huashen family. It is named because there is a ten thousand-year-old red cloud tree on the peak that is filled with smoke all year round.

Under the sun, the entire mountain peak glows red.

Clouds and clouds over the mountains are one of the eight wonders of Guiyun City.

At the top of the peak, there are faint red clouds and mist surrounding it.

In the gorgeous palace on the top of the mountain, two female nuns were sitting quietly.

"Ancestor! What will Chang'er do about this incident?"

A charming woman in a blue dress asked the beautiful woman in a white dress opposite her with a soft voice.

She is Zhou Hongshang, the head of the Zhou family.

"Shang'er, are you really sure that the evolution of dream Gu is due to this child?"

The woman in white looked at Zhou Hongshang and asked lightly.

She was a big shot in Guiyun City who would shake things up three times with just one stomp of her foot.

Zhou Wan, the ancestor of the Zhou family’s deity transformation.

"Ancestor, the Dream Gu has been stagnant in the late fourth level for many years. But yesterday, Chen Ling and I fell into a dream and practiced together. After we came back, the Dream Gu entered a dormant state."

"This is the sign of a breakthrough!"

Zhou Hongshang's beautiful eyes were bright and her expression was angry and a little excited.

Anger was that his decades of innocence had been destroyed in the hands of Chen Ling.

And he was completely helpless.

The excitement is that the Dream Gu, which has been stagnant for many years, is finally about to evolve.

Dream Gu is her natal spiritual beast. Once she successfully enters the fifth level, she will also receive huge benefits, and she may be able to enter the Three Yuan Yuan Ying.

Hearing this, Patriarch Zhou looked at Zhou Hongshang and said in a slightly majestic voice, "Shang'er, Dream Gu is a spiritual beast with heavenly bloodline. It has great potential, and it has special attributes."

"He actually took the initiative to pull Chen Ling into his dream, which shows that he is a man of great luck."

"And you have earth-level dual spiritual roots, and you possess the extremely rare dragon and phoenix cognate spirit body. If you can find a man with suitable cultivation level to sleep in the dream state, your cultivation progress will be greatly improved."

"It is even expected to reach Nascent Soul Dzogchen within a hundred years."

"Although this son is just a Golden Core cultivator, since he has been recognized by Dream Gu, our Zhou family will recruit him as our son-in-law."

When Zhou Hongshang heard this, a look of helplessness appeared on her bright and beautiful face, and she said, "Ancestor, this boy has average talent, but he seems to have a lot of opportunities, and he is also quite arrogant."

"Before entering the dream, I also gave many hints. As long as he becomes a guest of my Zhou family, the women in the clan will be allowed to him, but he actually refused!"

When Patriarch Zhou heard this, he was slightly startled and said with some surprise, "With Chang'er's appearance, is there any male cultivator who can reject you?"

"Could it be that this boy is practicing some kind of technique like Wang Qing Jue?"

Zhou Hongshang is known as the most beautiful woman in ancient China. Not only is she extremely beautiful, she has the same body as a dragon and a phoenix, but she is also naturally charming.

As long as she is willing, the Yuanying Dzogchen monks cannot resist her temptation.

Zhou Hongshang shook her head and said with a slightly puzzled expression, "This boy practices fire-attribute skills, and he has many wives and concubines at home. He looks like a lecher at first sight!"

"That's weird!" Old Ancestor Zhou narrowed his eyes and snorted coldly, "Since you have already cooked the rice, and he is the one who is induced by the dream Gu, it is not up to him whether he comes to Zhou's house or not. Got it!"

"Go over and tell him again. If you dare to refuse again, don't blame me for being rude!"

She knew clearly in her heart that since Meng Gu had made her choice, this person was Zhou Hongshang's best Taoist companion.

Zhou Hongshang is destined to follow him in the future.

Zhou Hongshang is the most promising monk of this generation of the Zhou family to become a monk in the late stage of divine transformation, or even in the realm of refining the void.

Absolutely no marriage is allowed.

As for Chen Ling's refusal, how could a little Jindan monk have the capital to refuse the Zhou family.

Just catch him.

······.

Wanbao Tower.

Inside the exquisite room.

Chen Ling was slowly sipping the spiritual tea, suppressing his shock.

The weird dream last night was still in my mind.

In the dream, he actually agreed to become the Zhou family's son-in-law.

After marrying Zhou Hongshang, she stayed in the Zhou family.

Soon after she gave birth to a baby girl, she married two other Jindan female cultivators from the Zhou family as concubines.

Working day and night to sow seeds has completely become a tool for the Zhou family to have children.

"Hey! What a nightmare!"

Chen Ling sighed. With the plug-in, he couldn't make such a stupid choice.

However, with his current dream cultivation, it is impossible for him to have such an unprovoked dream.

"It seems there is only one possibility, and that is a dream crisis!"

Chen Ling thought to himself.

The law of dreams also has the ability to predict good and bad luck.

Thinking that the Zhou family is a family with a late-stage god-transformation monk in charge, what should I do if I really want to force myself to join the Zhou family?

As soon as this thought flashed across his mind, Chen Ling couldn't help but be shocked.

Moreover, it is said that the ancestor of the Zhou family’s God of Transformation has an eccentric personality.

If she knew that she had executed Zhou Hongshang on the spot, she might really be able to attack her.

Suddenly, his expression flickered.

"A family that transforms gods wouldn't do something so difficult for others!"

Unable to think of a good solution for the moment, Chen Ling could only comfort himself.

There is still half a month left. Once the affairs of the Yourong family are settled, they can leave Guiyun City as soon as possible.

"Master of the family, Master Huang, the leader of the Dan Alliance, has sent an invitation!"

At this time, Wang Jinhe's voice sounded outside the door.

"Uncle Jinhe, just come in!"

Chen Ling said with a smile.

Although Wang Jinhe was roughly the same as him in cultivation, he was Wang Xi's elder, and Chen Ling also respectfully called him his uncle.

Wang Jinhe walked in and respectfully placed an invitation on the ground.

Chen Ling took it.

When he opened it, he saw that it was an invitation from Huang Yi, the leader of the Weapon Alliance.

After the competition with Tiexiong, Huang Yi verbally invited him to visit the Qi League when he had time.

It's just that he can't separate himself from recent events.

"Uncle Jinhe, where is the Baiyun Tower?"

Chen Ling put down the invitation and asked with a smile.

In the invitation, Huang Yi invited him to a party at Baiyun Tower.

"Baiyun Tower is in Baiyun Blessed Land, located in Jinyunnan District, several miles away from Wanbao Tower!"

"I can take the head of the family there!"

Wang Jinhe replied.

Chen Ling nodded and said with a smile, "Since the distance is not far, I will let you know if I want to go there later."

In the invitation, Huang Yi also explained two other things, inviting him to join the Weapon Alliance and to participate in a small auction of several monks.

Originally, Chen Ling had no interest in these two things.

Now that he has the ability to gain a foothold, he only needs to stay in Jade Butterfly City.

Marrying a wife and having children is the royal way.

But now the matter of Zhou Hongshang comes to the fore.

Plus last night's nightmare of becoming the Zhou family's son-in-law.

It made him have another plan in his mind.

The Qi Alliance and the Dan Alliance are no less powerful than the three major Divine Transformation Sects.

If you become a cultivator of the Qi Alliance.

If the Zhou family wants to take action against themselves, they should be more cautious.

As for the auction, just take a look at it and you won't lose anything.

"Master, we will go to Baiyun Tower later. It is best not to bring the two ladies there!"

Wang Jinhe glanced across the room and whispered.

"Oh, why is that?"

Chen Ling couldn't help but ask.

Wang Jinhe smiled and said, "Master, the Baiyunlou family has a big business. In addition to running the restaurant, it also arranges marriages, introduces wives and concubines, and sells maids."

"And if you go to Baiyun Paradise for a meal, the minimum consumption will be tens of thousands of spirit stones."

"Oh, so expensive?" Chen Ling was a little surprised.

Although ten thousand low-grade spiritual stones are nothing to him now.

But a person who used to be able to save even a piece of soul would not be so extravagant that he would go to such an occasion to eat.

"Of course, this is also good value for money. The most unique service of Baiyun Tower is the beautiful scenery and delicious food."

"Every day, all kinds of beauties are sent from all over the world, including high-level female cultivators from foreign races, demon foxes, and sea races."

Wang Jinhe's eyes flashed brightly and he said understandingly.

"oh!"

When Chen Ling heard this, he raised his eyebrows with an expression like that.

However, this kind of thing is also normal in various chambers of commerce.

I remember that he had bought Qingtang from Wanbao Tower.

He couldn't help but think in his mind, "Why did Huang Yi choose Baiyun Tower as a place to entertain him?"

Of course, in addition to the beautiful scenery, he also noticed what Wang Jinhe just said.

He asked, "What are the origins and cultivation levels of the wives, concubines, and maids introduced by Baiyun Tower?"

Although there are many wives and concubines in the family now.

But he deeply understood the essence of Han's saying that when recruiting troops, the more the better.

Of course, given his current situation.

If you want to marry, you must at least marry a female cultivator with a cultivation level above Foundation Establishment.

If you spend money, you can buy a concubine who is well-behaved and sensible.

After getting married, there is a reward for getting a wife, so it is not a loss.

"It depends on consumption. Different levels, and the situation of female cultivators are also different, but basically they are at least foundation-building cultivators."

"There are even female cultivators at the Golden Elixir and Nascent Soul level."

"And weapon refiners and alchemists like you, the head of the family, are also very popular with them."

"For example, Liu Lingyun, who is known as one of the four beauties of Baiyun Tower, was taken care of by Tiexiong all the year round when she was in her early stage of Jindan cultivation."

Wang Jinhe introduced.

"Golden elixir and Yuanying female cultivators also do this?"

Chen Ling was quite surprised.

However, monks need a lot of resources, and this kind of thing is considered normal.

"Master, there is something I want to report to you!"

After talking about Baiyun Tower, Wang Jinhe said with a straight face.

"Uncle Jinhe, we are not outsiders, just say it!"

Chen Ling glanced at him and smiled.

Wang Jinhe is rigorous in his work, and he is also smooth and skillful in handling things. He can indeed support the Wang family's reputation in Wanbao Tower.

"Master of the family, Tiexiong is aloof and headstrong. He is a person who can't get rid of the dirt in his eyes. How could he give up so easily after being defeated by the master of the family this time?"

"You should pay more attention in the future."

Wang Jinhe reminded in a deep voice.

The Tie family is one of the top three most powerful among the eight great deity-transforming families.

There is one late-stage God Transformation and one early-stage God Transformation in the family, as well as more than a dozen Nascent Soul cultivators.

Just thinking about it made his neck feel cold.

If the position of leader of the Wanbao Tower had not been of great importance this time, it would definitely not be a wise move to offend Tie Xiong like this.

Of course, with his sophistication, he could naturally see that this was a hole Lin Dong deliberately dug for the Wang family.

With Tiexiong's character of being determined to retaliate against others, he would definitely not be able to swallow this tone.

Chen Ling frowned slightly, it was going smoothly these days.

Moreover, the Tie family also wanted to win over him. For a while, he did not take this matter to heart.

Now that Wang Jinhe reminded him, he was suddenly shocked.

Similarly, Tiexiong will not give up, so how can the Lin family be willing to give up the rights to Wanbao Tower so easily.

It can be seen that Wang Xi is busy every day, and it is definitely not as peaceful as it seems on the surface.

Chen Ling pondered for a while and felt a headache.

It has only been more than a month since I arrived in Guiyun City.

But he has already provoked the two major god-transforming families, the Zhou family and the Tie family.

What is all this about?

And the Li family doesn’t know what will happen next.

It’s probably a lot of trouble!

However, the matter has come to this, and there is nothing that can be done.

We can only use soldiers to cover up the water and earth, and deal with it carefully.

Thinking about it, the Tie family wouldn't think that the monks would take action against them because of Tie Xiong's matter.

As for other people, he is not afraid either.

Then, Chen Ling learned some information from Wang Jinhe about the Tie family, Baiyun Paradise, Qimeng, Zhou family, etc.

Let’s not mention the three major Huashen sects for now.

Both the Tie family and the Zhou family alone have monks who are in the late stages of becoming gods.

Although the Li family does not have any late-stage spiritual transformation monks, there are two spiritual transformation monks, namely Li Chengwen in the middle stage of spiritual transformation and Li Chengye in the early stage of spiritual transformation.

Li Chengwen is still a swordsman.

The Weapon Alliance has two fifth-level weapon refiners, Huang Yi and Feng Zhang, and a dozen fourth-level weapon refiners.

As for Baiyun Tower, the force behind it is actually the Hehuan Sect of Dongling Huashen Sect.

When the time was almost up, the two of them left Wanbao Tower and headed to Baiyun Paradise.

······.

"Master, in front of you is the Baiyun Blessed Land, and the Baiyun Tower is within it."

A quarter of an hour later, Wang Jinhe pointed to an artificial blue lake covering an area of ​​more than ten acres in front of him and said.

Chen Ling was also surprised that such a large area existed in this city where every inch of land was at a premium.

How much is the monthly rent?

Sure enough, he is very wealthy!

Comparing the little assets of my Chen family with theirs

That is completely trivial and not worth mentioning.

I saw rugged waves on the lake.

It is surrounded by a high wall of limestone outside.

In the center of the high wall, a large circular arch opens.

Looking around, above the lake, the water vapor is lingering, and a silver silk waterfall appears out of thin air, as if falling from the sky, which is quite spectacular.

"Seniors, please stay. Do you have an appointment?"

A Foundation Establishment guard at the door stopped the two of them politely.

"We are here for the banquet at the invitation of Senior Qi Meng Huang!"

Wang Jinhe said lightly.

"Two seniors, follow me!"

Upon hearing this, the Foundation Establishment cultivator hurriedly bowed respectfully.

Then he led the two of them into Baiyun Paradise.

How dare he neglect someone who could be invited personally by the leader of the Qi Alliance.

Once inside, it's a different scene.

Both sides of the road are planted with various spiritual flowers and herbs, which are full of fragrance.

Inside, there is a six-story building with an extremely spacious area.

Chen Ling glanced over and saw that there were at least hundreds of rooms in this Baiyun Building.

Soon, under the leadership of the foundation-building monk, the two came to a private room on the third floor.

There were two monks talking inside.

The man in Xuanpao is Huang Yi.

The other one is a female cultivator, she looks to be in her thirties, has a delicate face, dark eyebrows and phoenix eyes, and has the aura of a lady.

The two were chatting happily.

From time to time he burst out into pleasant laughter.

Especially that woman, with a smile on her face.

"Hey! Fellow Daoist Chen is here! It's a long way to go!"

At this time, Huang Yi stood up, and then the door of the wing opened, and he said with a smile on his face.

Outside the door, Chen Ling stepped in.

Wang Jinhe was waiting outside.

"Thank you, senior! You've been waiting for a long time!"

Chen Ling bowed his hands and said respectfully.

"I have just arrived, please take a seat, little friend Chen!"

Huang Yi smiled, then pointed at the woman and said with a smile, "This is Mrs. Jin, the owner of Baiyun Tower."

"Chen Ling! I've met Mrs. Jin!"

Chen Ling bowed his hands.

"Chen Ling! I didn't expect that Fellow Daoist Chen, who is the most famous in Guiyun City recently, would be so young. He is really young and promising!"

Looking at Chen Ling, the woman's eyes flashed brightly and she smiled sweetly.

The originally beautiful and proud appearance is even more charming.

"It's all a matter of spreading rumors!" Chen Ling said with a smile.

But he was quite wary in his heart.

Baiyun Paradise is the property of Hehuan Sect.

This Mrs. Jin must also be a disciple of the Hehuan Sect.

However, the techniques practiced by the Hehuan Sect are all techniques of temptation, so I don't dare to be careless.

Then he took a seat below Huang Yi.

"Chen Xiaoyou, what are your thoughts on joining the Qi Alliance?"

After a brief exchange of greetings, Huang Yi said straight to the point.

"Thanks to the alliance leader for being so considerate, I'm flattered. It's just that I've finished my business in Guiyun City and I'm going back to Jade Butterfly City. I wonder if this will have any impact?"

Chen Ling replied.

"This will not have any impact. Members of the Qi Alliance are free and have no restrictions."

"As for the treatment, it is mainly based on your daily weapon refining!"

"Usually, the Equipment Alliance will publish some customer's equipment refining information. If you accept this order and the refining is successful, the Equipment Alliance will receive a certain commission from it."

"At the same time, the Weapon Alliance will also provide you with some weapon refining assistance to a certain extent, such as materials, flames, treasure bans, etc.!"

Then, Huang Yi elaborated on the specific treatment of Qi Meng's guest ministers.

For example, the annual salary is sixty medium-grade spiritual stones, and you can also receive a certain number of pills by completing the tasks issued by the Equipment Alliance every month.

In addition, you can bring your family servants to live at the Qi Alliance headquarters, but there are certain quotas.

You must know that the headquarters of the Qi Alliance is also built on the fifth-level spiritual veins.

Moreover, there are many weapon refiners living there, so this environment is definitely good for improving the level of weapon refinement.

Chen Ling was already a little interested, but after hearing Huang Yi's introduction, he didn't have any restrictions. If he didn't accept the task, it would be equivalent to being idle.

But this is good for both the Artifact Alliance and themselves. The Artifact Alliance has an additional fourth-level weapon refiner.

He can also take advantage of Qi Meng's reputation.

After pondering for a moment, he nodded in agreement.

"Okay! Chen Xiaoyou is indeed a cheerful person!"

Huang Yi praised with joy.

Then he asked Mrs. Jin to arrange the dishes, which was a celebration of Chen Ling becoming the guest minister of the Qi Alliance.
