Chapter 466 Try your best
In an open space on the top of the Song family mountain, Song Qingming and Huang Siyuan were trying to control dozens of golden insects flying in the air.
These golden bugs were the spirit bugs "Golden Phantom Butterflies" that Song Qingming obtained from an old man who was building a foundation after he and Xu Ziyan killed him on the road when he left an auction of Tiandan Alliance.
Because those "Golden Fantasy Butterflies" could not recognize their owners again, Song Qingming could only temporarily hand them over to be fed in the family's Beast Control Pavilion. Now more than twenty years have passed, and the golden butterflies raised in the Royal Beast Pavilion finally gave birth to the first batch of new spiritual insects a year ago.
Although these newly born "Golden Fantasy Butterfly" larvae currently have no fighting ability, according to the records in the "Jin Wen Yu Chong Lu" that Song Qingming obtained from the old man, as long as they are willing to spend some resources to cultivate them properly, they can survive in four to five years. These spiritual insects will mature to a certain level and can display their own innate magical powers. At that time, they will be of some help to the monks.
However, if you want to reach the level of the "Golden Fantasy Butterfly" trained by the old foundation-builder who can compete with the strong ones in the late-stage foundation-builder stage, you will need more resources and time investment. It will definitely be possible in a short time. It can't be done.
After seeing Song Qingming learn the insect repellent technique to drive these "golden phantom butterflies" a few days ago, Huang Siyuan was also very interested in these spiritual insects. It didn't take long before Song Qingming's guidance planted bans on some of the "golden phantom butterflies". , learned this secret art of repelling insects.
Anyway, there are still some mature "Golden Fantasy Butterflies" spiritual insects in the Song Family's Royal Beast Pavilion. They can continue to breed new spiritual insects. Some of the spiritual insects will be given to Huang Siyuan. This will also help Song Qingming's future research on cultivating "Golden Fantasy Butterflies". Not much impact.
While Song Qingming and Huang Siyuan were still practicing controlling the "Golden Fantasy Butterfly" on the top of the mountain, Song Qingyu, who hurried over, smiled at them and said: "Brother Seven, sister-in-law, I didn't expect you to be so casual and elegant on such an important day. Banquet The hall is ready and everyone is waiting for you, so let’s study these spiritual insects later!”
Song Qingming smiled when he heard this, quickly cast a spell to collect the "golden fantasy butterflies" that were still flying in the air into the spirit beast bag, and walked over with Huang Siyuan.
"Qing Yu, is Senior Chu here again?"
Song Qingyu nodded and said: "Senior Chu has already arrived at the bottom of the mountain. I asked Yuan Li to go down to greet him first. By the time we arrive at the banquet hall, I guess Senior Chu will have almost gone up the mountain."
The three of them walked down the top of the mountain. As soon as they arrived at the entrance of the banquet hall, Chu Fengping, dressed in gray robes, walked over with two disciples.
"Senior Brother Chu, Qing Ming is polite!"
Chu Fengping smiled and stepped forward, cupping his hands and returning a salute: "Senior brother is here today just to ask for a glass of spiritual wine. Junior brother Song, please don't be polite."
"Senior Brother Chu has condescended to come to my little Funiu Mountain, which is a huge honor for the Song family. Today Song will definitely have a few more drinks with senior brother, please come in quickly!"
After the two exchanged a few polite words, Song Qingming took Chu Fengping into the banquet hall. This very large banquet hall was renovated and decorated by the Song family from the original family meeting hall.
Because Song Qingming didn't want to make a grand event, the Song family only invited the foundation-building families from Qinghe and Pingyang counties to celebrate the family's advancement into the Golden Pill Immortal Clan, as well as some Xiaoyao who had been stationed in nearby cities and mines all year round. Zongzhuji monk.
The more than twenty foundation-building monks sitting in the banquet hall at the moment saw Song Qingming and Chu Fengping walking in, and they quickly stood up and saluted.
Song Qingming and Chu Fengping nodded slightly and greeted everyone present, then walked directly to the banquet and sat down.
After the two Jindan monks came in and took their seats, Song Qingyu on the side also officially announced the start of the banquet. Soon the Song family monks brought out plates of delicious spiritual food and wine.
After Song Qingming and Chu Fengping drank two glasses of wine first, they stood up and raised their glasses to the crowd and said loudly: "Everyone who comes to Funiu Mountain today is also giving Song some face. I would like to propose a toast to you all. I hope you can all work together in the future to protect our sect’s territory with me, the Song family!”
"Thank you for your support, senior!"
Seeing Song Qingming stand up to propose a toast, the foundation-building monks present stood up respectfully and drank the spiritual wine in their glasses.
Song Qingming had just sat down, and Chu Fengping on the side also stood up and raised his wine glass. He said to everyone with a serious face: "The situation in the north of the sect is turbulent now. Fortunately, Junior Brother Song has successfully formed the elixir. This matter is the end of the sect." Fortunately, it is also a blessing for all of you here.
Now that Junior Brother Song has served as the elder of the sect’s guest minister, from now on all the affairs of the sect in Qinghe and Pingyang will be handled by Junior Brother Song. From now on, if any of you dare to disobey Junior Brother Song’s orders, they will all be regarded as betrayers. Sect, I hope you all know this. "
Hearing such harsh words from Chu Fengping, the foundation-building monks below couldn't help but feel a little surprised, and quickly nodded in agreement.
After Chu Fengping finished speaking, the atmosphere at the banquet was also a little awkward, especially those monks from the Xiaoyao Sect who came from the nearby Fangshi and Zongmen mines, and there was a hint of confusion on their faces.
After the Song family advanced to the Jindan family, they were divided into two counties: Qinghe and Pingyang. The foundation-building families present had to listen to Song Qingming's orders. This was reasonable and nothing unexpected.
However, the foundation-building monks stationed by the sect in the two counties were directly assigned by the General Affairs Hall and the Law Enforcement Hall to perform the sect's tasks. Logically speaking, even if Song Qingming became the guest elder of the sect, he would not have the right to mobilize them at will.
Chu Fengping's words just now clearly represented the meaning of the sect. Not only the Xiaoyao Sect disciples present, but also everyone in the Song family and Song Qingming also had a little doubt in their hearts. They didn't know what the Xiaoyao Sect's move was. meaning.
After the banquet was over, everyone left one after another. Song Qingming also took the opportunity to say goodbye to Chu Fengping and asked directly: "Brother Chu, I heard Qing Yu tell me yesterday that among the congratulatory gifts sent by the sect, there was actually a building. Kidan.
Junior brother has just joined the sect, and has not made any contribution to the sect, but he has already received such heavy gifts one after another. I really don’t know why the sect loves me so much. Senior brother, can you give me a little reminder now, so that I can help junior brother? I have less doubts in my mind. "
When Chu Fengping heard Song Qingming ask about this, he hurriedly raised his hand and cast a sound-isolating secret spell around the two of them, and then replied with a smile:
"Junior Brother Song, you have now joined the sect, and all matters in the sect should have been made known to you in time. However, now that the monster turmoil is approaching, some people in the sect are also panicked. There are some things that are really inconvenient to say now, for fear of It will affect the sect's subsequent response to the northern monsters, and I hope my junior brother can understand.
As for the spiritual objects recently given to junior brother, these are also the sect’s thoughts. You can accept them without worry. Next, we will soon have to deal with the turmoil of monsters. By then, Pingyang County will probably have to rely on junior brother to lead everyone to protect them. . "
After hearing Chu Fengping's answer, Song Qingming nodded calmly and said, "Senior brother and the sect, please rest assured. The unrest between monsters and beasts is related to the survival of our human race. Qingming should do his best."
"Then I'll leave it to my junior brother!" Chu Fengping bowed to Song Qingming with a solemn expression.
Looking at the few spiritual lights disappearing in mid-air, Song Qingming stood there and fell into deep thought.
After just having a conversation with Chu Fengping, although he did not directly answer Song Qingming's question, Song Qingming had already heard some overtones.
Ever since the Xiaoyao Sect was eager to pull him into the sect, Song Qingming had already vaguely felt that there was something fishy about this matter. Later, the Xiaoyao Sect not only sent precious spiritual objects like the Foundation Establishment Pill, but also took possession of everything from Qinghe and Pingyang. All the monks from the sect were given over to his command.
Xiaoyao's intention is now obvious, that is, he has planned to hand over the defense of Pingyang County in the northeast of Weiguo against monsters directly to Song Qingming, and does not plan to send other Jindan monks here to support him.
The last time the demon beasts were in turmoil a hundred years ago, two golden elixir demon kings suddenly came to Pingyang County, killing the human side by surprise. Even Jinshanfang and half of Pingyang County fell into the hands of the demon beasts.
Although Song Qingming was only a young Qi Refining monk at the time of this battle, he was also a personal experiencer of the entire battle. He saw with his own eyes the tragic situation in Pingyang County after Jinshanfang was attacked by monsters, and it is still vivid in his memory.
Had it not been for the two golden elixir ancestors of Xiaoyao Sect, Lu Boyang and Chu Fengping, who came to the rescue in time and defended the defense line of Huoyun Mountain, I am afraid that the entire Northeastern Wei Kingdom might have fallen into the hands of monsters.
The Xiaoyao Sect dared to hand over such a large area of defense to Song Qingming, a man who had just broken through the Golden Core Realm. This showed that something bad might have really happened in the sect, forcing them to choose to do this.
"It seems that I really thought it wrong. At least one of the Xiaoyao Sect, Yao Qianshu and Bai Yuxian, must be unable to participate in this monster turmoil. Otherwise, it would be impossible for the Xiaoyao Sect to entrust such an important matter to On my own body.”
After Song Qingming came back from Xiaoyao Sect this time, he already felt that something was wrong. He did not expect that he would have to take on such a heavy responsibility just after successfully forming the pill. Thinking of this, Song Qingming felt helpless.
Judging from the situation of the last demonic beast turmoil, this time in Pingyang County, it is very likely that a third-level demon king will come with a large number of demonic beasts to attack, and there may be more than one demon king.
If this situation really occurs, it will indeed be very difficult for Song Qingming alone to lead the monks from two counties to defend Jinshanfang and Pingyang County, but this is also the worst case scenario that Song Qingming estimates.
As long as the Song family is still in Qinghe County, Song Qingming will not be able to avoid this monster turmoil no matter what. Even if he is somewhat unwilling to bear this important responsibility, for the sake of the people at the foot of the mountain, and for the millions of living beings in the northeast of Weiguo, Song Qingming will You must also try your best.
