Chapter 736

Ao Liqing tried his best to persuade and took out a lot of good things before he got an elixir from the brat Ao Xiaojin. Even so, the brat showed a heartbroken expression, which made Ao Liqing very depressed. How many good things had the brat cheated him away from!

Ao Liqing took the elixir to find the Dragon Emperor. It was also an elixir that could be used by Golden Immortals. Ao Xiaojin picked the one that he thought tasted the worst and gave it to him. However, this elixir was of top quality. It was made by an alchemist who had just been promoted to a celestial immortal.

The Dragon King looked at it and nodded, saying, "The alchemy technique is indeed good. The Dragon Clan can be won over. You can handle this matter on your own. You should also thank them for sending Ao Xiaojin back."

The alchemy skills are indeed good, and it is indeed very beneficial for the Dragon Clan to attract such an immortal alchemist. However, for a cultivator at the level of the Dragon Emperor, this level of immortal alchemist is not worth his attention, unless he can become a top-level immortal alchemist in the fairy world. But that person is currently only at the level of a celestial immortal. Although the speed of improvement is fast enough, it will take a long time to reach the level of an immortal emperor.

Therefore, the Dragon Emperor felt that the matter could be handled by the Dragon Clan.

Ao Liqing could naturally guess what the Dragon Emperor was thinking, because no matter how high the alchemist's alchemy skills were, if his cultivation level could not be improved, it would be useless to cultivators of their level. However, with his celestial immortal cultivation level, he could refine elixirs suitable for Golden Immortals. This level of alchemy skills was worthy of being won over by the Dragon Clan. With Ao Xiaojin as a link, Ao Liqing thought there was no problem at all.

"I'll take care of this."

After Ao Liqing went back, he personally prepared a generous gift and sent someone to deliver it to Yuan Jing. He had not thought about what to give before, but now seeing that Yuan Jing had an outstanding talent in alchemy, he gave him a lot of immortal herbs and elixir recipes collected by the dragon clan. At the same time, he was thinking about whether he could negotiate a deal with him, hoping that the dragon clan could buy low- and medium-level elixirs from him. Although the dragon clan had fixed partners, they could not produce low- and medium-level elixirs of such good quality.

It’s a pity that Yuan Jing is the only one and cannot supply Dragon Elixir in large quantities. However, if the elixirs provided are of top quality, this deal cannot be missed.

However, when the dragon people arrived at Feiyan City where Yuan Jing and his companions lived, Yuan Jing and his companions were in seclusion. Not to mention that the defensive formation was tightly closed, waking people up from their seclusion in this state would be tantamount to making enemies with the cultivators.

The people from the Dragon Clan waited for several days but still saw them not come out, so they had no choice but to leave the things to the contact person stationed here and return to the Dragon Clan to report the situation. Ao Liqing had no choice but to give up and wait for them to come out.

Yuan Jing decided to go into seclusion for a while. He would come out next time after his body has grown up a bit. At least he should not always look like a half-grown child. He felt that sometimes people looked at him as if he were a pervert, which was not good.

So he had no idea that the Dragon Clan had sent people to deliver gifts. He calmly sealed off the entire cave and concentrated on tempering his body and evolving his own little world. Poor Qin Zichuan often waited anxiously outside, but never saw anyone coming out of the cave next door. So he simply went into seclusion, otherwise his current Golden Immortal cultivation would not be enough in front of the people next door. Looking at how fast Yuan Jing was advancing, he was afraid that the three of them would surpass him when he came out of seclusion next time.

Li Jiujun was extremely pleased. The young master finally realized that he had to work hard to make progress. It was not easy.

Ao Yuxuan waited for Qin Zichuan to show up in Yunhuang Fairy City, but he never showed up. She thought that this bastard had deceived her, so she sent people to search for Qin Zichuan all over the fairyland, but they only found that he disappeared after entering Tianhu City.

What a joke! The move from Tianhu City to Feiyan City was handled by the elders of the two tribes. How could Ao Yuxuan and her ilk take advantage of it?

Ao Yuxuan wanted to go to Tianhu City and make a big fuss, but was finally persuaded by other dragons around her. Not long ago, the dragons and foxes almost fought in Tianhu City. If Ao Yuxuan went to Tianhu City at this time, wouldn't she be asking the foxes to vent their anger?

Ao Yuxuan had no choice but to ask people to continue searching, but Qin Zichuan, who was in seclusion, had no idea that he had escaped.

Sanwei and Ao Xiaojin received the news from Yuan Jing when he decided to retreat. The two bored kids had no choice but to follow him in retreat. Otherwise, when Yuan Jing and his friends became stronger and went out to travel, wouldn't they be left behind? That was absolutely not possible.

So these two very hardworking little ones made both the fox clan and the dragon clan very happy. What great kids they are.

***

Wei Chen's life was not very good except for the first few years after he ascended to heaven. He was almost captured by the Shao family of Hanyue Fairyland. However, because of the fox's three tails, he was brought to Yunhuang Fairyland. As an ascended cultivator, his life was not bad.

He did not want to bring too much trouble to Sanwei, so he stayed alone in a not-so-big city. Yunhuang Fairyland was a place where demon cultivators gathered. Although there were some cultivators, they were not the majority. After a long time, he realized the benefits of having cultivators in such a place, especially those with a backstage.

Thinking about how many years he had lived in the lower world, he couldn't just wait and suffer for those endless years, so when he had nothing to do, he would study things like alchemy, weapon techniques, formations, talismans and so on to kill time. Later on, although he could not be called a master, he could do it with ease. Therefore, after coming to the Yunhuang Fairyland, he quickly found a suitable way to make a living.

He opened a small shop in the city, selling elixirs, magical instruments, and formation plates. Although the items were not the best, they were quite good for the demon cultivators here, as there were not many demon cultivators who were proficient in the art of alchemy and instruments.

He relied on this shop to earn immortal stones and obtain resources for cultivation. He practiced step by step and interacted with the demon cultivators and human cultivators in the city. He heard all kinds of gossip from them. Once in a while, Sanwei would send him news to let him know that Sanwei's master still hadn't come to the fairyland.

At first, he felt that the two had a very special origin. When he had free time, he would also guess where they were now. They were definitely not in this world. So what were the similarities and differences between the world they were in and the fairy world? He had once thought that the two were the reincarnations of great powers like Shao Lu. He couldn't find them in the fairy world, so he guessed that the origins of the two must be more special than Shao Lu's.

Sometimes, a thought would even pop up in his mind that even if those two people would come to this fairyland one day, I am afraid that the fairyland might not be a place for them to stay for long.

As for Shao Lu and the Shao family who were keeping a close eye on them, Wei Chen found it ridiculous. If the two really came to the fairyland, Shao Lu and the Shao family would only bring shame upon themselves. Didn't they have enough lessons in the lower world? Did they really think they could cover the sky with the help of the Shao family when they got to the fairyland? Didn't they see that they couldn't even deal with a three-tailed monster?

Of course, he also knew that Shao Lu's condition was caused by his inner demons, but he had high hopes for Shao Lu. Unless he could overcome his inner demons on his own, it would be extremely difficult for him to get rid of them with the help of those two. Thinking about the immortal soul master who had shocked the cultivators from the lower world in the past, and how he would be restrained by his inner demons and unable to make any progress in the future, Wei Chen became more and more peaceful. He was not as good as Shao Lu in the past, but one day in the future he would surpass Shao Lu and get ahead of him.

Who among the cultivators from the lower realms would not be angry when seeing Shao Lu’s condescending attitude?

Over the past three thousand years, he has grown from a mortal immortal who had just ascended to a celestial immortal. In the eyes of others, his cultivation speed is not slow, because he is alone and has no family support to provide him with cultivation resources. However, he is very clear that if it were Yuan Jing and the other two, if they were given this much time, the heights they would grow to would be unimaginable.

He had also heard a lot of news about someone who had recently sent a five-clawed golden dragon back to the dragon clan. Some of the cultivators who usually interacted with him expressed their envy of that person's cultivation. He thought that the dragon clan would definitely give a lot of thank-you gifts, unlike them who had to work hard to earn immortal stones and find resources for cultivation.

Wei Chen was not envious, but when he heard that the little golden dragon was found in the fox clan's territory, Tianhu City, he felt a little strange. How could it be in Tianhu City? Tianhu City easily reminded him of the three-tailed fox. Could the little golden dragon's appearance in Tianhu City be related to the three-tailed fox?

But he changed his mind and smiled again. No matter whether it was related or not, he would know it one day. As for those two fellow Taoists, he just wanted to know that they were safe.

Wei Chen thought he could see through people's hearts. When he went to the lower world, he turned himself into an old monster and few people could confide in him. After coming to the fairy world, he saw the wickedness of human hearts. Those cultivators who were able to ascend to the fairy world because of Yuan Jing and the other two, would turn around and sell them out, and even use his name, Wei Chen. He believed that those guys would attack him without hesitation for their own interests.

Fortunately, he was very vigilant when he first came to the fairy world, so he has never been exposed. Over the past three thousand years, he has only had casual interactions with people. The only people he can completely trust are perhaps Yuan Jing and the other two, with whom he spent the shortest time in the lower world. This kind of fate is very special. He believes that if he really fell into the hands of the Shao family at that time, if Yuan Jing and the other two were in the fairy world, they would definitely find ways to rescue him after getting the news.

But despite remaining on guard, he was still being targeted. The cultivators around him usually called him Brother Wei affectionately, but now they wanted to kill him.

Wei Chen sneered: "Just for a piece of specious news, you decided to take action against me? Even if I, Wei Chen, really have that thing, how are you going to distribute it after getting rid of me? And didn't you all say that I have a backer? Why, aren't you afraid that my backer will back me up this time?"

The cultivators who besieged Wei Chen included both cultivators and demon cultivators. A cultivator named Zhao sneered, "You're just bluffing when you say you're capable. If you really had such a powerful backer, how could you have managed to run such a small shop all these years? I think it's just a lie. You made up a backer for yourself. Who are you trying to scare? I've been dealing with you for so many years, but I've never found any powerful backers around you."

You're right. Wei Chen did rely on that small shop to earn the resources he needed for cultivation. Sanwei once wanted to give him resources, but Wei Chen himself refused. Even if Sanwei's two owners gave them to him, he would still refuse. Otherwise, what kind of person would he be?
