Chapter 138 Why didn't you tell me about this good news? Fishing Huo Kunlun into a black carp!
"Is this the Lanyue Sect?"
"Is this a third-rate sect???"
"This is fucking ridiculous. Not to mention our Fire Virtue Sect, even the Beast Taming Sect may not be able to see such a scene, right?"
"Eight Treasures Chicken and Eight Treasures Duck in groups???"
Everyone in Huo Kunlun was dumbfounded.
Even if it's just a small group.
But he could see clearly that there were both males and females, and they looked very happy and contented. There were even two of them mating. Doesn't this mean that they can reproduce on their own???
What third-rate sect would raise the eight ancient delicacies like ordinary chickens and ducks!
Even in the holy land, one might not be able to see such a scene.
Is the Lanyue Sect going to defy the will of heaven? !
Oh shit!
Huo Kunlun exclaimed “Oh my god!”
He even felt that he had said less "fuck" in the first half of his life than in this half hour.
Then, he couldn't help but start fantasizing.
How great would it be if these things all belong to our own Huode Sect?
Your mouth is about to be crooked from smiling, right? ? ?
Unfortunately, it belongs to someone else!
Huo Kunlun could no longer laugh.
I even felt extremely heavy and uncomfortable.
Even the steps became heavier and slower.
······
"Comfortable!!!"
Zhao Tiezhu successfully broke through and became a powerful person.
He couldn't help but let out a long roar towards the sky, his voice shaking the heavens.
But soon, he restrained himself.
"That's not right. We can't make too much noise and disturb the cultivation of these cute little guys in the Lanyue Sect. Well, just be happy."
He broke through the barrier.
Jin Zhen and Ma Canlan, who sensed his breakthrough, were already waiting outside the cave.
"Congratulations!" Jin Zhen laughed and said, "After so many years, Third Brother, you have finally made a great step forward and achieved great power."
"Our Huode Sect can become stronger because of you."
"Yes." Ma Canlan was filled with emotion: "This moment reminds me of the past when we were young. It was also a brilliant era..."
"Over the years, we have been secretly worried about you, but now we can rest assured."
"It's time, it's fate."
Zhao Tiezhu sighed, "Once upon a time, I was almost in despair, but I never thought that by some strange coincidence, I would meet someone in Lanyue Sect... Alas, it is difficult to repay such a kindness."
"The only way to repay this kindness is to contribute more to the Lanyue Sect and teach more disciples, right?"
He was very happy, but also very sad.
A breakthrough is naturally a great joy, not to mention that after so many years of being stuck, he finally became a powerful person. Even getting drunk for three days would not be an exaggeration at all.
But then I thought, how can I repay all the favors I owe?
"Want to return it?"
As experienced people, Jin Zhen and Ma Canlan smiled helplessly: "It's not finished yet."
"Unless you can be cruel enough to leave immediately, you will never be able to repay it in your lifetime."
"Of course there is another possibility, that is, we die and the debt is settled, or the Moon Lan Sect is destroyed due to force majeure..."
"How come?"
Zhao Tiezhu didn't believe it: "Why can't I pay it off in my lifetime?"
"Oh."
Ma Canlan laughed strangely and said, "You will understand it later."
"good."
Jin Zhen stroked his beard, half smiling.
"Hurrah!"
"You are all here indeed!"
“Okay, okay!”
The three were chatting when they heard an angry and extremely familiar voice. Suddenly their bodies froze and their scalps went numb. Even though they were all powerful people, they were so scared that their legs went weak and they almost ran away.
"Sect... Sect Master?!"
They were completely stunned as they looked at the rapidly approaching Huo Kunlun.
"Why did the Sect Master come here in person?"
"What should I do?"
"It's all over, it's all over now!!!"
They were close to despair.
Huo Kunlun became even more furious when he saw this.
Just now he was about to find someone to ask about the whereabouts of the three people, but he happened to hear Zhao Tiezhu's long howl, so he immediately followed the sound.
But I never expected to see three people talking and laughing...
Suddenly he laughed out of anger.
"Okay, okay, you three, that's great!"
"The Huode Sect is busy and in need of people, but you are all hiding here without saying a word. If someone doesn't know, they would think you are the elders of the Lanyue Sect!"
"breakthrough?"
"Oh? Third Elder, you did make a breakthrough. You didn't lie to me."
Huo Kunlun was shocked.
A breakthrough?!
This is a great thing.
but···
The anger is still there. How can it be eliminated just because the Third Elder has a breakthrough?
"But you guys kept it a secret from me, the Sect Master. Don't you feel guilty about it?!"
"Hidden from you?"
Zhao Tiezhu shuddered and said awkwardly: "Master, we don't know what you are talking about. We didn't hide it from you. Besides, you also saw that I did have some enlightenment and just broke through..."
"Yes, Sect Master. I can testify that the third brother just had a breakthrough. The long roar he just let out was because he couldn't help but let out after the breakthrough." Jin Zhen hurriedly stood up for him.
"I can also testify!" Ma Canlan stepped forward and said, "Master, you know me well. This old man and I are enemies. If he is talking nonsense, why would I not expose him but agree with him?"
"What he said is indeed true!"
"Also, there's one more thing."
Ma Canlan said again: "Sect Master, this..."
"Well, that's..."
"Well, I have also had some enlightenment and am about to break through, so I would like to stay here for the time being and let the first and third elders protect me for the time being. After I break through, the three of us can go back together, how about that?"
Upon hearing this, Huo Kunlun became even more furious.
"Okay, okay, you guys are really so nice!"
"Brotherly love!"
"But you should never, ever treat this sect master like a fool!"
"Is this sect master really that stupid?"
"Throughout this journey, I have learned everything that I should know and don't know!"
"You guys actually still want to fool this sect master like this?"
"This is simply outrageous."
"This is intolerable!"
"Ah, this?!"
The three of them were even more shocked and their voices trembled.
The Great Elder cautiously asked, "Sect Master, what do you know?"
"Know what?"
Huo Kunlun sneered: "I know everything!"
"Aren't you ashamed of using someone else's elixir to break through?"
"ah?!"
"After all, you are an elder of the Huode Sect, a high-ranking official among the high-ranking officials, but you shamelessly stay in the Lanyue Sect and even teach classes together with them, right?"
"Where is the face left!"
"You are all old guys, how could you be like this?"
"How will this make others view you, and how will they view me, the Huode Sect?"
After a round of furious cursing, the three of them were so angry that they became like three quails, with their heads lowered and huddled together, not daring to look up at Huo Kunlun.
"ah?"
"Why don't you guys talk?!"
"Why does my Huode Sect have three elders like you???"
"You ignored your own disciples. When Huode Sect asked you to teach, you always had various excuses to shirk your duties. Even when you taught, your attitude was extremely bad and your teachings were extremely mysterious."
"When I arrived at the Lanyue Sect, hey, you are closer to me than my own grandson! All along the way, I heard nothing but praise for you, saying that you are good at speaking and have a very good temper."
"If you have this kind of personality, why don't you stay in Huode Sect?"
"Which sect's elders are you from, huh?!"
"Speak up!!!"
"Are there still sect rules? Are there still laws?"
“Where are your morals?”
"Where's the character?"
"Where is the face?"
"Where is the elixir?"
"ah?!"
The three of them were almost stunned by the criticism and did not even think about replying. After all, they were the ones who were wrong in this matter. If you look at it in a small way, it is not a big problem, but if you look at it in a big way, it is definitely not a small problem either.
Therefore, they are all prepared to be criticized and will never talk back.
After all, the fact that he could say these words meant that Huo Kunlun indeed knew everything, and it would be useless to quibble or say anything else.
As the saying goes, you have to admit that you are short and stand firm when you are beaten.
Since you did this, you must bear the consequences.
But the result...
The sudden words made the three of them look up in surprise, and they were all stunned.
Looking at Huo Kunlun, who was spitting and glaring, Ma Canlan said cautiously: "Master, you just asked..."
"Didn't you hear?!"
"Are you deaf?!"
Huo Kunlun started to rant again.
"cough."
Jin Zhen took out a jade bottle: "There's not much left."
"Show it to me!"
Is it really there?! So I guessed right, there really is an elixir, and it made them so devoted to it, so the quality must be good, right?
There isn't much left, so is there still some left?
How much did you give?
Huo Kunlun was secretly surprised, but he still looked fierce on the surface. He snatched the jade bottle and opened it.
There is no use for spiritual consciousness.
Close your left eye and look into the bottle mouth with your right eye.
"He Dao Dan..."
"Twelve?!"
"Five seventh-grade pieces, six sixth-grade pieces, and one fifth-grade piece!!!"
hiss!!!
The scene he saw made Huo Kunlun's heart beat faster, and he couldn't help but gasp.
Even though he was ready to lose his temper and prepared not to change his mind no matter what he saw, this one glance still made his expression change drastically.
For a while...
Even faith began to gradually collapse.
There was a mad and silent roar in my heart.
"You mean there's not much left???"
"You mean you ate a lot before this?"
"They are at least of the fifth grade or above. There are far more than ten of these high-quality pills... Are you trying to defy the will of heaven?!"
"Even though I'm the leader of Huode Sect, and even though our Huode Sect is financially strong, elixirs of this quality can't just be bought whenever we want, right?"
“There is no demand for it!!!”
"Fifth-grade, I can occasionally spend a lot of money to buy a few, sixth-grade? I haven't seen it in many years? Seventh-grade? I've never eaten it!!!"
"But you have five of the remaining seven-grade pieces?"
"Tell me, how fragrant is this elixir?"
“How effective is it?”
"I..."
“What the hell!”
I exclaimed in my heart again: “Oh shit!”
Huo Kunlun was completely numb.
I thought I had made all the mental preparations and defenses I had built, but at this moment, they were completely vulnerable.
In fact, he suddenly understood Jin Zhen and the other two.
Don't say it's them.
This is like changing yourself...
Unless Huode Sect has something important to do and I have to be there to preside over it... then I don't want to go back!!!
cough.
He forced himself to calm down, compose himself, and control his expression.
However, the hand holding the jade bottle was reluctant to let go for a long time.
And the one behind him said expressionlessly: "You have it too?"
Ma Canlan scratched his head: "Yes, but not as many as the Great Elder."
Alas, who made me act slowly last time?
Next time, I will definitely be the first one to rush up!
"I'm gone."
Zhao Tiezhu smiled helplessly: "I just arrived at Lanyue Sect, how can I have the nerve to ask for so many pills? I have already used them all for this breakthrough, but..."
Huo Kunlun's heart skipped a beat when he heard this.
Damn it!
When you first arrived at Lanyue Sect, the pills you received were enough for you to break through. This treatment...
I'm so jealous!
"But what?"
"However, once I find a way to gather some materials, I can ask Miss Ling'er to refine some for me."
“...What is the success rate?” Huo Kunlun was excited.
Yes, yes, yes, that’s absolutely right.
That’s the taste!
I knew it!
"We don't know what the success rate is." The three shook their heads: "However, we have a good relationship with Miss Ling'er and Lanyue Sect."
"Miss Ling'er has granted us a special license, and we have a fifth-grade guarantee."
"One piece of material can produce a fifth-grade elixir at least."
"What???!!"
Huo Kunlun's voice suddenly rose eighteen degrees.
Wow, a guaranteed fifth grade?
Damn, the alchemist who has the best relationship with our Huode Sect can only guarantee a third-grade rank, right? And he is so busy that he can only make a few furnaces of Hedao Dan in a year...
As a result, you here...
"How much can I give to guarantee a fifth-grade certificate?"
"Yeah." Jin Zhen nodded: "At least that was the case before."
"And it's very efficient!" Ma Canlan echoed.
Before, they wanted to hide it.
But now that it has been exposed, there is no need to do so.
They even wanted to blow Xiao Ling'er hard.
The louder the boasting, the lighter the "sin" of oneself and others will be.
It's not that we are shameless, immoral, or unworldly, but Xiao Ling'er is truly amazing, and this elixir is so fragrant!
"Give us the materials today, and maybe tomorrow we can get the elixirs. They are at least fifth-grade, with sixth-grade ones occasionally."
"What is the seventh rank???"
Occasionally there is a sixth grade?
Huo Kunlun grasps the key point of the problem.
Jin Zhen still has five seventh-grade ones!
Jin Zhen stared at the jade bottle in Huo Kunlun's hand and said, "I paid for it with my life."
"Tell me in detail!"
"It was because Lanyue Sect encountered a crisis before, and I couldn't stand it, so I took action... and then..."
"I left these seventh-grade pills here on purpose." Jin Zhen said bitterly, "I will eat the lower-quality ones first. When I am on the verge of a breakthrough or reach a higher level, I will eat the higher-quality pills."
"That's what happened."
What I mean now is... I exchanged my life for those seventh-grade items, and I haven't even eaten them yet.
As the sect leader, you can't embezzle money, right?
Huo Kunlun frowned, with a lot of thoughts in his mind.
At this moment, he didn't know what to say.
shock.
And I feel very confused.
This Xiao Ling'er is simply not a human being.
Aren’t his talent and means in alchemy a little too overbearing?
Moreover, if you work hard for Lanyue Sect, you will be given such benefits?
This, this, this···
What should this sect leader do?
He was unable to make a decision for a moment and his face became gloomy and uncertain.
Huoyun'er, who had come smilingly to congratulate, saw the familiar figure as soon as he approached, and was suddenly shocked and stunned.
I almost screamed out loud.
Fortunately, she reacted at the last moment, covered her cherry lips with her hands, and didn't make any sound.
She was behind Huo Kunlun, just facing Jin Zhen and the other two. Their faces tensed and they quickly winked at her and gestured gently, asking her to leave quietly.
Huoyun nodded, covered her mouth, stepped on the clouds, and retreated silently...
"come over."
Huo Kunlun didn't even turn his head, but snorted coldly: "Do you think I'm old and confused?"
"Or do you think your stealth skills can deceive me?"
"Forehead."
"father."
Huoyun'er almost cried out, but she came over reluctantly, lowered her head, like an eggplant hit by frost - wilted.
"Aren't you in the Imperial Capital?"
"Hey, I... I'm back."
"snort."
Huo Kunlun glared at her angrily and finally made a decision: "Take me to find Xiao Ling'er!"
"Ah? She, she hasn't come back yet."
Huoyun'er's heart tightened, fearing that her father would do something bad to Xiao Ling'er, so she spoke quickly.
At the same time, he secretly felt lucky that Xiao Ling'er hadn't come back yet, otherwise~
"Master Sister is back!!!"
Just at this moment, a voice full of joy came from far, far away.
Xiao Ling'er is back!
Huo Yun'er's face suddenly turned pale.
Huo Kunlun glanced at her and said, "You didn't lie to me, but now that she's back, I don't need you to take me. I'll go by myself."
After saying that, Huo Kunlun flew up on a cloud to "intercept" Xiao Ling'er.
Huo Yun'er was very anxious and grabbed him, "Dad, don't go."
"This is none of her business. I'm going back with you and I won't come out again."
However.
Huo Kunlun ignored her.
The huge gap in strength between the two sides made Huo Yuner's efforts useless, and instead she was dragged away as well.
Jin Zhen and the other two smiled bitterly, but they could only follow and whispered to each other: "What should we do?"
"Let's wait and see what the Sect Master does. He shouldn't be too impulsive."
"If the clan leader wants to mess around..."
"I will stop it no matter what."
"Yes, this is our fault. What does it have to do with Ling'er? If anyone wants to fight, they should fight us. We can't let Miss Ling'er suffer an undeserved fate... Hmm?!!"
"What did I see?!"
The three of them were struggling with their thoughts when they suddenly became confused.
They watched Huo Kunlun dragging Huo Yun'er to stop Xiao Ling'er with all their might. They held their breath, thinking Huo Kunlun was going to lose his temper...
But he suddenly smiled, bowed to Xiao Ling'er, and chuckled, "Miss Ling'er, we meet again."
"Did this girl cause you trouble during your trip to the Imperial Capital a few days ago?"
"As a father, I have to apologize to you first."
Huoyun'er was confused with a mixed feeling on his face.
“Huh? (⊙o⊙)???”
Jin Zhen and the other two, who were even planning to take action and were ready to stop their sect leader at all costs, were also stunned.
"Ah, this?"
Σ(⊙▽⊙“a???
no.
Why is this different from what we imagined?
You just scolded us so much and acted so aggressively, we all thought you were going to scold us or even hit us, right?
So, your expression change speed is a bit too fast, isn't it? !
Amid their confusion, Xiao Ling'er was quite surprised and asked, "Sect Master Fire?"
"Why are you here?"
"Why call me Sect Master Huo? It's too strange, too strange!" Huo Kunlun pretended to be unhappy and said, "You and Yun'er are like sisters, and you saved her life. If you don't mind, just call me uncle."
"Come, Yun'er, didn't you always tell me that you wanted to play with Ling'er? Now that she's back, go play with her."
He reached out and pushed.
Huoyun'er flew to Xiao Ling'er uncontrollably.
“···”
She turned around, her eyes widened, her mind full of question marks.
What's going on?
Xiao Ling'er didn't know what had just happened, and couldn't help but say happily: "Yun'er."
Huoyun'er: "Uh..."
"I'm here to play with you."
She was so confused that this was the only way she could respond.
"Go play."
"I will stay in Lanyue Sect for a while. As for you... Alas, you have suffered a lot before. This time, you can play as long as you want. Just remember not to neglect your cultivation!"
Huo Kunlun responded cheerfully.
"ah?!"
Huoyun'er was completely stunned, and for a moment, her brain almost lost the ability to think.
this···
What is going on here?
"Uncle, why are you here?" Xiao Ling'er asked, feeling puzzled.
"Some small matters." Huo Kunlun said with a smile: "I will go find your master later and have a good chat with Sect Master Lin."
"I see." Xiao Ling'er suddenly realized: "Then I wish Uncle Huo that your conversation with Master goes smoothly."
"Of course, hahaha, go and have fun. We old guys have things to do, so we won't keep you any longer."
Huo Kunlun waved his hand and then flew towards Jin Zhen and the other two behind him.
And with the three people's strange expressions, he pulled them away.
Huoyun'er was still confused.
But she couldn't say those words.
He could only be dizzy and be dragged by Xiao Ling'er to fly to the Alchemy Pavilion.
······
"Master, what are you doing?"
Ma Canlan couldn't help but ask.
"Me what?"
"What's wrong with me?"
The smile on Huo Kunlun’s face disappeared.
Seeing their confused looks, Huo Kunlun became furious again and said angrily: "Don't you know why this sect master is angry?"
"Why?" Zhao Tiezhu did not answer the question.
"Why else?"
Huo Kunlun laughed angrily: "You guys didn't tell me about this good thing???"
"Do you still have me as your leader in your eyes?"
"And the Huode Sect???"
"Five-grade guaranteed!"
"If we can establish a cooperative relationship, will our Huode Sect still have a headache about elixirs? In our Huode Sect, whether it is disciples or senior leaders, whose cultivation speed will not increase dramatically?"
"Even if we can't establish a cooperative relationship, even if Xiao Ling'er can't refine it alone..."
"Can't there be one more of me?"
"ah?!"
"Or do you think that as a clan leader, I don't need to become stronger?"
"I think you don't even have me in your eyes!!!"
Huo Kunlun is so angry!
Just now, he was indeed conflicted and hesitant.
But in the end, I felt relieved.
What is there to be entangled or hesitant about?
The elixir smells so good!
"You guys go and do your own thing. I'll go find Sect Leader Lin to see if we can work together."
"Oh, it's really infuriating."
"You are our own people. I think you are not even as good as outsiders. You make me so angry!"
Huo Kunlun flew away.
The three of them were left staring at each other.
What the hell is this twist?
I was already prepared to be taken back by force, but you did this?
"But it's a good thing after all." Zhao Tiezhu muttered.
They both nodded.
But suddenly, Jin Zhen's expression changed drastically: "No!!!"
"My elixirs haven't been returned to me yet! Sect Master, don't run away!!!"
"metropolitan!"
“···”
······
"snort."
"Some old bastards."
Huo Kunlun disappeared in a flash, muttering to himself, "You still want me to pay you back?"
"Let me discuss it first."
"If everything goes well, I can return some to you. If the negotiation fails, return it to you? Hey, this sect master has never tasted these good things in his life, so can't I enjoy them?"
"At worst, I can transfer some materials to you after I return."
Thinking of the five seventh-grade pills, Huo Kunlun's eyes became hot.
Everything about Xianwu Continent is good, except that it has developed too well and too brilliantly.
There are too many people!
This is true for both ordinary people and cultivators, and there are countless of them. The path of cultivating immortals has also developed extremely brilliantly.
This also leads to a lack of resources.
There are too many people, so on average, there are naturally fewer resources.
There is a shortage of medicinal materials, and the prices are rising almost every year.
This has led to more and more people being unable to afford the pills.
Even when the price reaches a certain level, the opportunities for alchemists to practice will continue to decrease, and thus, the skills of alchemists will become worse with each generation.
Although the decline is very slow, there has indeed been a significant decline over the years.
This also leads to high-quality elixirs becoming increasingly rare.
Another reason is that as materials become more and more expensive, in order to reduce the losses caused by furnace explosions, various recipes have been "optimized" again and again over the years.
Adding more ingredients makes the medicine more mild and reduces the failure rate, but the new pill formula also makes the finished product more mediocre.
It is true that the success rate of pill making has increased, but in contrast, the probability of producing high-quality pills has decreased a lot.
At the same time, because more spiritual medicines were put in, the price of medicinal materials rose further...
A complete vicious cycle.
It is for this reason that when monks choose things to assist their practice, they mostly focus on Yuanshi, and occasionally eat some meat or take a few pills.
Most of these elixirs are around the third grade.
The fifth grade is already rare.
The higher the level of the elixir, the more so.
Therefore, even Huo Kunlun has never eaten such high-end goods as the seventh-grade Hedao Pill.
Now that I see five of them, I am naturally extremely jealous.
Of course, he would not embezzle Jin Zhen's elixirs, but~
Let's see how the situation develops.
If the cooperation goes smoothly, everything will be fine. If the cooperation does not go smoothly, he will not let the relationship between the two sides become strained. Instead, he will choose to leave by himself and send some materials to Jin Zhen, asking him to ask Xiao Ling'er to help refine it on his behalf...
cough.
"In the final analysis, there are still too many monks and too little porridge."
At this moment, Huo Kunlun was very sad.
"No matter how expensive the pills are, you and I can't afford them, but there is always someone who can afford them. The high-quality pills that occasionally appear on the market are simply impossible to get."
"I could afford it even if I sold everything I had, but it's not worth it."
I don't know why, but I suddenly thought of this.
Huo Kunlun suddenly realized that he actually had some hatred towards the rich.
"However, the opportunity is right in front of us now. As long as the conversation goes smoothly later, I, and even our Huode Sect, will have this great benefit~~~!"
······
Lian Bo withdrew his consciousness and frowned.
"Huo Kunlun, the leader of Huode Sect???"
Just now, he didn't dare to take a closer look for fear of being discovered.
It would be so embarrassing if you were caught peeping.
So I just watched from afar and didn't know what they said, but judging from their performance before and after, and the changes in Huo Kunlun who was happily rushing to Lanyue Palace at this moment~~~
"These three old guys are too shameless!"
"It's already three to one, and you still think it's inappropriate and even call your own clan leader over?"
"So is Huo Kunlun!"
"After all, you are the leader of a top second-rate sect. How many sects' weapon-making lifelines are controlled by Huode Sect? I don't know how many people envy you for your reputation, but you come to lick a third-rate sect like us and a little girl."
"It's amazing that he could do that!"
"Bah, shameless."
After cursing inwardly, he couldn't help but take out the jade talisman for transmitting sound.
"Hurry up!"
"Faster."
"Where are you guys? If you come too late and miss this great opportunity, I won't care about you!"
“···”
······
“Here I come.”
Lin Fan looked away with a smile on his face.
He naturally noticed the arrival of Huo Kunlun, and he also knew that he had asked questions along the way and had basically figured out the current situation of Lanyue Sect.
However, he did not know what the five people from Huode Sect talked about specifically.
However, we can guess a little about Huo Kunlun's purpose.
Of course, I have to pretend I know nothing about it.
This matter is not difficult for this guy.
He is professional.
"I have to pretend~"
······
"Sect Master Lin!"
"Sect Master Lin, oh my."
"Hearing about him is not as good as meeting him in person, and meeting him in person is even better than hearing about him. He is indeed a man of outstanding appearance, a rare talent! I have admired Sect Master Lin for a long time, and when I saw him today, I was really shocked by his beauty."
Lin Fan was pretending to know nothing, standing on the top of Lanyue Palace and gazing into the distance.
Then a cry of great surprise was heard.
Then, Huo Kunlun went up the mountain and bowed: "I am Huo Kunlun. It is really presumptuous for me to come here uninvited. I hope Sect Master Lin will not be offended."
This...
Good job.
The famous leader of the Huode Sect, you are praising a 'little guy' like this, and even using this tone, aren't you embarrassed?
Lin Fan didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but at the same time, he was sure that this wave was a sure thing~!
It is more stable than fishing for black bass.
"It turned out to be the Fire Sect Master."
“Oh my!”
Lin Fan was 'greatly surprised', and then 'overjoyed'. He appeared in front of Huo Kunlun and grabbed his hands. He was so excited that he didn't want to let go for a long time.
"I have heard of the great names of Sect Master Huo and Senior Huo for a long time. I have no regrets in my life to meet Sect Master Huo today!"
???
Huo Kunlun's heart skipped a beat and he became secretly alert.
I flatter you because I have a request to make from you, the Lanyue Sect.
As for face, well, I am also half a businessman. I have already mastered the social skills of speaking the truth to different people and different things to different people. Naturally, I will not feel embarrassed or ashamed.
Why are you able to brag better than me right from the start?
It sounds like you will regret it for the rest of your life if you don't see me.
This kid...
It's a little fox!
I'm afraid he has other intentions towards me, so I must be vigilant!
The two sides shook hands and were reluctant to let go for a long time, even though Huo Kunlun didn't know about the handshake etiquette before.
At the same time, they were both convinced in their hearts that the other was a "fox", but on the surface they were all laughing and joking together.
They even began to compete in flattery, vowing to elevate the other party and belittle themselves in this regard.
The higher you praise the other person and the more you belittle yourself, the easier it will be to talk to them later~!
Huo Kunlun used almost all his strength, but in the end, Lin Fan was still more skilled.
"Uncle Huo, my admiration for you is like the endless flow of the river, and like the flooding of the Yellow River, which is out of control! Listening to your words is better than reading thousands of books of sages and wise men. Looking at the heroes of ancient and modern times, you are the best, Uncle Huo!"
hiss!!!
Aren't you exaggerating too much?
Huo Kunlun was almost shaking all over, feeling as if he was floating in the air.
"It's going to happen!"
He knew that he had lost this time, so he quickly changed the subject: "Why call him Uncle Huo? Sect Leader Lin, I'm not saying anything bad about you, but you are such a great person, and you and I are both sect leaders."
"Besides, my useless girl is as close as a sister to your direct disciple Xiao Ling'er. No matter how we start, you and I are of the same generation, the same generation~"
"Hey~ Uncle Huo, what are you talking about? You are a famous figure of the previous generation, and I am just a kid of this generation. How can I be on the same level as you?"
"If it doesn't work, let's go our separate ways from now on."
"I call you uncle, and you call me brother?"
Huo Kunlun: “???”
What are you talking about!
Isn’t this a mess?
Huo Kunlun didn't know whether to laugh or cry for a moment, but he also knew that he would definitely not be able to beat Lin Fan in terms of talking. He could only end this first wave of "confrontation" and get to the point under Lin Fan's guidance.
Knowing how powerful Lin Fan was, Huo Kunlun was extremely alert after sitting down.
But what could he do? After all, he needed a favor from the other party, and after three rounds of tea, he had no choice but to take the first step.
"Brother Lin."
"Hey, brother, I won't hide it from you. Actually, I came here to ask for a favor."
"Okay, okay, Uncle Huo, just tell me what you want to say." Lin Fan responded happily.
Huo Kunlun was speechless.
What the hell is this name?
What a mess.
"cough."
"That's right... We, the Huode Sect, hope to form an offensive and defensive alliance with the Lanyue Sect and help each other!!!"
"If you are willing, Brother Lin."
Pah pah.
He patted his chest and said, "From now on, I, a disciple of Huode Sect, am your disciple of Lanyue Sect."
"The materials of our Huode Sect are the materials of your Lanyue Sect."
"Our Huode Sect's Sutra Library is the same as your Lanyue Sect's Sutra Library."
"You can use our Huode Sect's weapon-refining skills as you like!"
"Whatever you want to refine, as long as we can refine it, we will definitely go all out and never shirk it~"
Lin Fan was shocked and was a little stunned for a moment.
But his mind is extremely active.
"Oh? Is this your answer?"
"Not bad at all."
"But maybe this is the only condition you can offer?"
He looked surprised, but he was actually thinking.
"The alliance... Overall, the benefits are naturally greater than the disadvantages, but what I am planning is even greater."
"So, Uncle Huo, and Huo Yun'er, I'm afraid it's..."
"I want to say sorry to you."
Lin Fan's eyes opened and closed.
From now on, you have to follow my pace~
It is indeed great to be your indispensable supplier.
But, my goal is to directly control your lifeline!
Lin Fan was not afraid that Huo De Zong would mess around, or rather, Huo De Zong's performance over the years made Lin Fan certain that they were quite "upright".
Otherwise, Lin Fan would not have chosen to accept Jin Zhen and others, and exposed Xiao Linger's almost divine alchemy skills.
Since they have repeatedly accepted and revealed this secret to a certain extent, they are naturally confident that they will not turn around and attack the Lanyue Sect.
However, these words cannot be said explicitly.
Have to go 'around'.
"That's naturally excellent."
After being pleasantly surprised, Lin Fan said anxiously, "I am willing to do so, but how can our Lanyue Sect be so worthy of this? I am afraid this is not worthy of us, right?"
"Matched, why not?" Huo De Zong was overjoyed, but acted very calmly: "Well, actually, I want to exchange our alchemy skills and mutual assistance for your Lan Yue Zong's high-quality elixirs."
"Your Majesty's Xiao Ling'er's alchemy skills are truly miraculous and rare in the world."
"if only···"
"If she can help and make pills for our Huode Sect, everything will be easy."
"ah?"
"I see." Lin Fan suddenly realized something and then frowned: "This... Of course I am willing to do so, but you also know that no matter how powerful Xiao Ling'er is, she is the only one."
"As a master, I am also very distressed."
"She is already very busy refining the elixirs for our Lanyue Sect. If we add the Huode Sect, which has a hundred times more people than us, she will definitely be overwhelmed."
"She is a monk after all, so..."
"Something is wrong."
"Therefore, I cannot agree to this."
"We cannot ruin the disciple's future for the sake of the sect's development and let her become an alchemy machine."
"So Uncle Huo, I'm sorry I can't agree to this."
Refused.
And the refusal was so reasonable that I couldn't find any fault with it.
Huo Kunlun felt helpless.
I knew it wouldn't be that simple.
but···
Still have to fight for it.
"Indeed, I was a little reckless." Huo Kunlun apologized, and then thoughtfully said: "Brother Lin, how do you think about this?"
"That is... please ask Miss Ling'er to help the leaders of our Huode Sect refine some pills in her free time. This way, it won't delay her work and our Huode Sect can also benefit from it."
"Of course, we are not trying to get something for nothing."
"We'll provide the herbs, and we'll also provide the expenses..."
"That's easy to talk about!" Lin Fan smiled. "It's just a small group of people, so it shouldn't be a problem. Let's not talk about the cost. Wouldn't it hurt our relationship if we talked about money?"
You'd better talk about money. Talking about money hurts feelings, and talking about feelings hurts money.
Free things are the most expensive, right?
Huo Kunlun wanted to insist, but he heard Lin Fan say, "In my opinion, let's do this."
"Uncle Huo, the senior members of your Huode Sect who are in urgent need of elixirs... and the Tianjiao disciples, yes, that's right, those who are in urgent need of elixirs can all come to our Lanyue Sect. In Xiao Ling'er's free time, she will refine elixirs for them."
"how?"
"That's naturally excellent."
Huo Kunlun was stunned.
This proposal...
Very good.
He keenly felt that there was a pit, but he didn't know where it was.
“I think it’s good too.”
Lin Fan grinned, but then frowned: "It's just that our Lanyue Sect is too weak, and your Huode Sect's strong men are coming in large numbers, which is a safety issue..."
"That's easy!"
Huo De Zong said: "Whether it's me or them, let them swear an oath that unless they are treated unfairly, they are not allowed to harm anyone from Lan Yue Zong, nor to destroy any grass or tree!"
"But...we in the Lanyue Sect still have many enemies." Lin Fan looked at them eagerly.
Huo Kunlun took a deep breath and said, "We in the Huode Sect can't stand those who do wrong things."
"I often tell them that as immortal cultivators, we must stand up when we encounter injustice!"
"As long as our people are here, we will not stand idly by if Lanyue Sect encounters any crisis. I swear!"
Lin Fan nodded: "But we are too weak, the news of this high-quality elixir cannot be leaked, otherwise it will be a disaster..."
Huo Kunlun: "I swear..."
"By the way, your geniuses are here, and it will take some time to refine the elixir. During this period, they must practice in Lanyue Sect. If there are not enough secret techniques and skills for them to practice, it will inevitably be inconvenient..."
"Okay, I will copy and reproduce all the skills and secret techniques in the Sutra Library and bring them here."
Huo Kunlun's thoughts raced, and he solved the problem at an astonishing speed.
But I never realized that at this moment...
Became a curled mouth~
The hook is straight and the bait is salty.
But he eats better than anyone else.
