Chapter 242: How to break the ten-year catastrophe? Long Aojiao comes out of confinement
“Interesting.”
Lu Ming withdrew the Eightfold Mirror Technique: "Did the negotiation fail?"
"From the footage, it seems like Ji Haoyue said something that made Han Feng and the others a little crazy."
"That's good. This way, I can find out from him what Han Feng and the others are going to do and what plans they have."
"But there is a little trouble."
"That is, after the talks broke down, the Haoyue Sect will not be involved. Therefore, there is no way to get first-hand information. For example, if they want to take action against the Lanyue Sect, I have no idea when and how they will do it."
Lu Ming sighed lightly, then looked around.
"As the saying goes, a thief never leaves empty-handed. Although I'm not a thief, I'm here now, and I've already told them that I want to see these recipes... Shouldn't I copy down all of them and take them back with me?"
Lu Ming stretched and started to move immediately.
As a cultivator, when copying, one naturally would not use hands or pen.
Therefore, the efficiency is extremely fast.
······
"It's so wild, it's so wild..."
Homeward journey.
Ji Haoyue was very proud and even hummed a little tune.
The smile on his lips never disappeared, it was even harder to suppress than that damn AK.
Lu Ming pretended to be 'awakened' by looking at the copied recipe, raised his head, and asked curiously: "Why are you so happy, Sect Master? Did you remember something happy?"
"Hahaha!"
"It's a happy thing." Ji Haoyue laughed: "Humph, Han Feng and Luo want to force me to submit with just a few words, and they want to see me make a fool of myself."
"But don't you think about it? How can I be an ordinary person if I can become the leader of the Haoyue Sect?"
“But it also took only a few words to stop the two of them, making them extremely angry, but unable to vent their anger, hahahaha.”
“Just thinking about their expressions, I can hardly hold back my laughter.”
"Tell me, how can you not be happy?"
“This is of course a happy thing!”
"So that's how it is!" Lu Ming suddenly realized: "The Sect Master is extremely intelligent and his methods are admirable. The two of them also want to embarrass the Sect Master. They are really naive."
"Of course!"
Ji Haoyue's mouth corners were almost stretched to his ears.
Then he said cheerfully, "But guess why Han Feng invited us here so solemnly this time?"
"this···"
"She said it's a matter of life and death for our sect?"
"But I really can't guess the reason." Lu Ming shook his head.
Ji Haoyue frowned slightly: "Aren't you curious?"
"Why not ask?"
"Maybe it's not convenient?" Lu Ming spread his hands. "I don't think Han Feng would say anything irresponsible. Since he said it concerns the life and death of our sect, it must be a serious matter."
"I'd better not ask any more questions."
"Hey, that's not wrong." Ji Haoyue was very satisfied with Lu Ming.
I don't ask about this kind of thing...
If even he is not trustworthy, who else can be trusted?
The Second Elder is getting more and more suspicious as he gets older. Not only is he suspicious, he's also timid!
Why suspect Elder Lu when there are so many people to suspect? It's really... Haha.
And at this moment, don’t you ask?
I just want to say it!
If I don't tell you, how can I show my trust in you?
How to win people's hearts?
As the saying goes, the emperor's mind...
Although I, Ji Haoyue, am not an emperor, but as huge as the Haoyue Sect, doesn't it also require an emperor's mentality and the ability to control people?
Tsk tsk tsk.
Ji Haoyue chuckled and said, "That's true, but who are you?"
"You are the elder of my sect!"
"Besides, we are close friends regardless of age, like brothers. Is there anything I cannot share with you?"
"this···"
Lu Ming bowed and said, "Thank you for your kindness, Master. I am overwhelmed."
But in my heart I wanted to laugh.
Sure enough, the reverse operation is the easiest.
"Why are you so scared?"
"Every word I said is true!" Ji Haoyue glared, and then said: "In fact, the so-called life-and-death matter is nothing more than Han Feng's nonsense and exaggeration."
"She actually said that Lanyue Sect will destroy our Haoyue Sect soon. When that happens, our Haoyue Sect will have to worry all the time about Lanyue Sect taking action..."
"Ha, don't you think it's funny?"
"ah?!"
Lu Ming was shocked: "Is this true?"
“Every word is true!”
Ji Haoyue asked again: "Do you know why she didn't let you be there?"
"Why?"
"It's because you took action in the battle against the Sun and Moon Immortal Dynasty, and you did it on behalf of the Lanyue Sect!"
"In my opinion, humph, there is no pattern at all."
"Even if I asked you why you took action, it wouldn't have gone to this extent!"
“As long as she asks, will I still hide it and refuse to tell her? As long as she asks, she will know that you are repaying the favor you did to Long Aojiao. You want to help Long Aojiao, not the Lanyue Sect.”
"But she didn't ask."
"Not only did you not ask, but you also don't trust Elder Lu and Brother Lu!"
"This is intolerable!"
"You can insult me, but you can't insult my brothers!"
"Therefore, I turned against them right on the spot!"
"snort."
"If I don't trust you, I don't trust me."
"What else is there to talk about?"
After hearing these words, Ji Haoyue himself was almost moved.
Lu Ming: “…”
"metropolitan!"
Lu Ming was almost 'crying with gratitude': "You treat me so well, I..."
“Hey~!”
"Don't be like this, and don't say those things. We are all family, we are all brothers, why do we have to be like this?" Seeing this, Ji Haoyue was particularly satisfied and hurriedly spoke to comfort them.
"Sect Master..." Lu Ming choked up several times.
"Haha, don't be like this, don't be like this."
Ji Haoyue smiled slightly: "Not just to you, I am like this to all my people, so don't be too moved."
"We don't care about this matter anymore."
"As for the Mysterious Fire Pill Tower and the Hidden Soul Palace, humph, they are nothing but a nest of snakes and rats."
"If they want to take action, let them take action."
"If we fail, at least we can greatly weaken the power of the Moon-Raising Sect. By then, it won't be too late for our sect to take action."
"And if they succeed, everyone will be happy, and our sect can just pretend that nothing happened."
"Master, great advice!"
Lu Ming praised.
But I was extremely alert in my heart.
Damn, it’s basically confirmed!
This first catastrophe that occurs once every ten years is led by Han Feng from Xuanhuo Danta!
But she is not just bringing the Xuanhuo Dan Tower with her, but will also involve the Hidden Soul Palace, and there is a high probability that there will even be other forces or independent cultivators involved.
"Luckily, Ji Haoyue was extremely 'smart' and didn't follow along."
"Otherwise, the Lanyue Sect will be in real danger this time!"
Lu Ming just felt his scalp tingling.
He had a general understanding of the strength of Xuanhuo Danta.
In terms of its own combat power, it is actually inferior to the Sun and Moon Immortal Dynasty.
The main difference lies in the number of imperial soldiers and those at the peak of the eighth realm.
In addition, its overall strength is not weaker than that of the Sun and Moon Immortal Dynasty, and is even stronger in other aspects.
Not only that, as the leader of alchemy in the Northeast Region, Xuanhuo Danta has complex personal connections, and if a war really breaks out, all he needs to do is make a call and there's no telling how many people will come!
Therefore, if a real fight really comes to fruition, the Xuanhuo Dan Tower will definitely defeat the Sun and Moon Immortal Dynasty.
It's just a Xuanhuo Danta...
The Lanyue Sect can still hold on.
After all, the strength of the Lanyue Sect is constantly improving, especially those disciples, who are changing almost every day and improving rapidly.
But what if I add a Hidden Soul Hall...
Even if only one of the deputy hall masters brought people here, it would be scary enough, and there would be almost no possibility of winning.
If we add the Haoyue Sect...
Lanyue Sect still has a way out? !
Lu Ming: “…”
Damn, that’s brilliant!
The annual 'little disaster' is outrageous enough.
As a result, your ten years of great calamity...
I can see that this is clearly a gathering of enemies, attacking together!
Even if there is just the slightest trend, it would be outrageous enough.
"Is my preparation...enough?"
At this moment, Lu Ming couldn't help but worry.
Even though he was mentally prepared, the glimpse of the ten-year catastrophe at this moment made him sweat profusely.
"Besides, I have to find a reason to sneak out and help."
"Otherwise, I might not be able to bear it."
“···”
He frowned and began to think of a solution.
Need help?
Gatling Bodhisattva is gone.
Sandian, Jiesexing and Fathead Fish are unable to protect themselves, so naturally they can't help.
Holy Land of Flowers?
The relationship between the two sides has not reached that level yet.
Even Xiaolongnu may not be able to take action!
"I have to try to consider all the unfavorable factors, so that I won't have too many expectations and won't panic when facing a crisis."
Be prepared for the worst!
"but···"
"There is a problem."
Lu Ming suddenly thought of something!
"Right now, the Mysterious Fire Pill Tower and the Hidden Soul Hall are still in the preparation stage."
"There is still nearly half a year left until the ten-year catastrophe."
"After all, this is a cross-domain war. The journey is long, we need to gather people, and we also need to be careful to manage the relationship in the southwest region. All these things take time."
"According to previous patterns, the crisis always breaks out on that day."
"In the past, since we didn't know where the crisis came from or what it was, the Moon-Lan Clan and I could only passively endure it and wait for others to come knocking on our door."
"I remember the first few years after I came here. Whenever a crisis came, the Lanyue Sect's protective formation would be immediately destroyed and exploded directly, just like fireworks."
"In the following years, our sect gradually gained a firm foothold and was able to avoid such incidents. Even though the sect's protective formation would still be destroyed, it could at least hold out for a while."
Lu Ming's mind raced: "But that was all in the past."
“It’s because we don’t know what the crisis is, so we can only face it passively.”
"And now that I know that the ten-year catastrophe was caused by Han Feng and the Xuanhuo Danta, then..."
"What if I take the initiative?!"
Lu Ming suddenly had such a bold idea.
Take the initiative!
"We should attack them while they are still unprepared and catch them by surprise!"
"It was a deliberate and unintentional attack. We were ready, but they were not."
“最重要的一点是，隐魂殿总不可能屯兵于玄火丹塔吧？因此，这样一来，便是逐个击破！”
“还有···”
“玄火丹塔按理说本来就是炎帝模板的‘副本’，也就是说，萧灵儿早晚要走这样一遭！”
“按理说···”
“既然是炎帝专属副本，那么炎帝去干，就没毛病吧？”
“指不定还会有一些奇特的化学反应。”
“只是，我如果将这一切‘提前’···又会出现什么变化？”
要想到这一点其实并不难。
可问题是，后续会如何？
譬如炎帝，还没准备去玄火丹塔呢，按理说，应该是药姥恢复的差不多了，准备回去清理门户，或是玄火丹塔有什么变故，药姥才会带萧灵儿回去。
还有一点，十年大劫···
若是自己提前解决了，那它还算是十年大劫吗？
该不会到十年大劫那天，又蹦出一个新的十年大劫来吧？
那岂不是超级加倍？
非但自己白忙活了，还特娘的很可能更危险。
这···
如何抉择，是个问题。
······
揽月宗。
林凡摸着下巴，一时间难以抉择。
“情报太少。”
“以前也从未经历过，不知道究竟是哪种情况。”
“头疼！”
他皱眉。
按理说，自己若是能提前解决十年大劫，那也算是解决，后续···应该就是没有后续了吧？
可这种事，还真不能只是‘按道理’就拍脑门儿决定。
万一自己费心费力，好不容易把玄火丹塔给干了，完事儿后却跳出来更猛的十年大劫，那特么才是哭都没地方哭去。
“可若是不主动出手，这么好的机会还被动挨打，却又着实说不过去。”
“这个险，冒，还是不冒？”
“或许，可以从收益来分析？”
“提前解决麻烦，可以获得什么收益？”
“主动出击，降低大劫难度，这便是最明显、最大的收益。”
“可若是还会出现第二波大劫，甚至···‘幕后黑手’啥的觉得我破坏了规则，直接给我安排个更危险的十年大劫又该如何？相比之下，风险明显大于收益···”
“嗯？等等，不对！”
“不能如此简单换算。”
“若是出手，则可以当做一次试探！让我更了解规则，从某个角度来说，‘情报无价’。”
“从这个角度来看，似乎，冒险也无不可。”
林凡微微沉吟。
随后，动用天地大衍术，尝试推衍。
结果···
毫无意外，推算不出来。
天地大衍术虽然厉害，但如今是黄金大世，此事更关乎一堆主角模板，若是这都还能被推衍出来···
他们也就不配为主角了。
“头疼。”
“不过话又说回来，此事，或许应当与药姥和灵儿商议一番。”
“毕竟，她们与玄火丹塔、韩凤之间，才是直接关联人。”
想到这里，林凡当即开口，招呼光明圣女芙宁娜。
“芙宁娜。”
“叫萧灵儿过来一趟。”
“是，主人。”
芙宁娜连忙应下，而后立刻取出传音玉符联系萧灵儿。
如今，她们也算是修仙者了。
不过，许是由于文化差异，她们修为提升速度不算快。
但只是用传音玉符而已，却还是不在话下，没有任何问题。
一旁。
丫丫单手托腮，漂亮的大眼睛微微泛白。
哼！
师尊这些事都不吩咐我了。
侍女有什么了不起嘛！
······
“师尊。”
“道友。”
不多时，萧灵儿与药姥并肩而来。
此刻，药姥已入第四境。
与她原本的修为相比，自然是相差十万八千里，但她重修的速度，却也是一日千里，令人震惊。
此刻，药姥面色严肃，道：“道友突然让我们前来，想来，定有要事？”
“是有大事。”
林凡点头，沉声道：“我稍微有那么一丁点儿人脉。”
“通过这些人脉，我得知一些隐秘消息。”
“其中一条，事关我等以及整个揽月宗生死。”
“因此，需要告知你们知晓。”
药姥神情一凝，随即面色微变，暗道不妙：“莫非···？！”
萧灵儿则是脸色严肃：“师尊，是何人要对咱们出手？”
丫丫起身，没吭声。
但却已经打定主意，且蓄势待发，只要知道是谁，自己便去弄死他们。
就算弄不死，也要给他们多找些麻烦。
甚至···
再来一场日月仙朝那般大战，也并非不可！
“···”
看着他们的表现，林凡却是揉着眉心，一手按在丫丫肩头，让她重新坐下，这才道：“稍安勿躁。”
“对方实力强大，影响力更是超群，不可莽撞。”
“叫你们前来，便是要商议此事。”
说是让大家莫要莽撞。
实则，却是看向丫丫。
丫丫低头，有些尴尬。
小心思被看穿了，咳咳。
见她不再冲动，林凡叹道：“这次的敌人，比以往都要更强，且强出许多，甚至远在日月仙朝之上。”
此言一出，众人皆色变。
日月仙朝一战，虽然胜了，但却也极为‘巧合’，运气成分很高。
若没有那些‘运气’，结果还真很难说。
这次的敌人，却远在日月仙朝之上？
“至少来自两个不同势力。”
林凡轻语：“其一，东北域玄火丹塔。”
“其二，隐魂殿。”
“玄火丹塔，隐魂殿么？”
丫丫心中暗暗念叨着，并将这两个名字记在心上。
虽然师尊让自己莫要冲动···
但自己稍等几日便是，之后再找机会出去找他们麻烦。
再将千变万化之术用上，想来也不会为宗门带来多少麻烦。
“玄火丹塔？”萧灵儿错愕：“隐魂殿与我宗本就有仇怨，可这玄火丹塔，为何也？”
药姥却是长叹一声：“果然是···”
丫丫与萧灵儿错愕，后者不由道：“老师？”
“你···知道？”
“猜到了。”
药姥眉眼低垂：“你不是一直好奇，你那位师姐的身份么？若是我没猜错，她如今，便是玄火丹塔之主！”
“是她？！”
萧灵儿面色一变再变。
“不错，就是她。”林凡点头。
药姥叹道：“道友，又为你惹麻烦了。”
“灵儿所炼之丹药，流落出去的也是不少，以玄火丹塔的势力，有所发现也并不奇怪。”
“旁人或许认不出来，但我那逆徒，却是绝不可能忽视，只要看上一眼，便能认出来。”
“而以灵儿如今的名气，她要查，根本无需费多大力气便可锁定揽月宗。”
“想来就是因为如此，玄火丹塔才会盯上揽月宗。”
“至于隐魂殿···以我对那逆徒以及玄火丹塔的了解，想来是她自知实力不足，怕出现意外，因此，想要合纵连横，联手与揽月宗有仇的势力，一同出手？”
药姥微微沉吟，这才道：“或许，不仅仅只是他们。”
“大概率还要加上皓月宗！”
“厉害！”林凡心中暗赞。
不愧是曾经的丹帝。
仅凭蛛丝马迹便可猜到这么多，直接洞悉真相，真是真的厉害。
“不无可能。”
林凡微微颔首：“道友所言，想来十有八九便是真相，而据我所知，目前，玄火丹塔与隐魂殿之人已然决定联手。”
“至于何时出手、如何出手，暂未可知。”
“但却不得不防啊。”
“的确不得不防。”萧灵儿咬牙：“而且，我要替老师清理门户！”
“不可大意。”
药姥连道：“那逆徒当年的修为便不弱于你现在，且她天资纵横，若非如此，当年为师也不会收她为徒。”
“数千年过去，如今的她，纵然未入第九境，想来也相差不远了。”
“再加上整个玄火丹塔乃至隐魂殿···”
“此事，还需从长计议。”
萧灵儿却是笑了：“老师，如何从长计议？”
“过上几日，你找机会离去，孤身一人回玄火丹塔？”
药姥沉默。
她···还真有这种想法。
毕竟严格而言，此事因自己而起，若非自己当年‘眼瞎’看错了人，又岂会有今日的韩凤？
不会有今日的韩凤，便也不会有揽月宗之危。
因此，她想自己去解决此事。
尘归尘、土归土。
总不能连累了她人才是。
但被萧灵儿看穿，她也感到尴尬。
“老师，若非你倾囊相授，学生又如何能有今日？”萧灵儿轻叹：“我能猜到你的想法，但却更心疼您当年的遭遇。”
“给学生一个机会，与您一同前往，如何？”
此事，算是‘师门内部事宜’。
严格来说，原本应该与揽月宗无关。
因此，她也不想连累揽月。
药姥浑身一颤，正要开口，却被林凡打断：“我说，你们师徒二人，够了吧？”
“我还在这儿呢。”
“玄火丹塔又不是什么小门小户，何况后面还有个隐魂殿，怎么，一个二个，都想逞英雄是吧？”
林凡狂翻白眼。
我特么叫你们来，是商议对策来着。
不是让你们逞英雄、让你们‘自我感动’不愿连累他人然后跑去干仗的啊！
“也包括你！”
说话之余，瞪了目光闪烁的丫丫一眼。
后者吐了吐舌头，不吭声了。
在林凡面前，在揽月宗内，丫丫全然没有半点狠人女帝的‘风采’，倒像是一个邻家可爱小丫头。
“此事，必然要解决。”
“且他们既然已经决定出手，我揽月宗，自然便不可能置身事外。”
“叫你们过来，便是商议此事。”
“要出手，就一起出手，以摧枯拉朽之势覆灭玄火丹塔，而不是让你们冒着风险，却还未必能解决。”
林凡摊手：“甚至到最后，若你们失败，反倒会削弱咱们的实力。”
“因此，唯有一起上才是正途。”
萧灵儿动容。
药姥也是反应过来，苦笑道：“是老身考虑不周，太过片面了，道友所言极是。”
自己去拼死拼活，成的几率太小，纵然说的好听，是什么不连累他人而慷慨赴死，但自己死了，难道那逆徒便会收手么？
以自己对她的了解，她定然不会就此收手！
因此，虽然此事乃是因自己而起，但如今，却已不仅仅只是自己‘师徒三人’之间的事了。
要动，便是摧枯拉朽、一击奏效，否则，还不如歇着。
“虽然格外惭愧，但···老身却有个法子，若是成功，当可轻松不少。”
药姥低语，将自己的计划缓缓道出。
林凡听后，微微颔首。
“好！”
“便依道友之计。”
“但在那之前，我等却也需要做足准备。”
“那是自然。”药姥应下。
“灵儿，千变万化之术，传你老师。”林凡叮嘱萧灵儿。
后者连忙回应。
药姥却是苦笑道：“说来惭愧，为道友与揽月宗带来如此大麻烦，却还要拿贵宗好处，实在是···”
“都是自己人，说这些便生分了。”
林凡挥手，道：“道友还是尽快恢复修为吧，大战，已不远矣。”
“嗯。”
药姥沉吟：“谢，我便不说了，说的再多，也抵不过道友所付出的分毫，但此战之后，若老身还可侥幸存活，定当厚报。”
药姥师徒二人离去。
林凡则是伸了个懒腰。
“丫丫，你去一趟灵兽园，告诉小石头，他可以下山去了。”
小石头最近进步很大。
搬血境极境已然打破！
有林凡给予的功法、揽月宗的条件远超石村，甚至，他还每日追逐八珍鸡、八珍鸭，更是与真龙、火麒麟为伍。
成长速度自然极快。
且有林凡指点，小石头也不会疑惑自己该如何突破极境。
如今，他甚至已开辟第十洞天！
这，属于‘极境’，但却还未曾超越极境。
继续留在揽月宗，早晚有一日或许也能突破，但荒天帝的路注定充满荆棘，若是养在温室中，他还是荒天帝么？
有时候，该让他出去历练、拼搏时，便不能心软。
“可是···”
丫丫却是有些心疼，道：“小师弟还那么小，且虽然修行体系不同，但他才第二境而已，如今便让他外出历练，是否太早了些？”
“你也知道早啊？”
林凡却是翻起白眼：“当初是谁毫无修为便要独自闯荡，甚至还不要护道者来着？”
丫丫：“···”
“咳，有吗？”
“师尊，丫丫不记得了。”
林凡：“···”
这丫头，倒是越发古灵精怪了，跟在自己身边时，咋看都不像狠人女帝呀。
林凡摇头晃脑：“去吧，一切随他，他若想出去历练，便让他自由出入，若是不愿，我揽月宗，也容得下他。”
“是，师尊。”
丫丫溜了。
再待下去，翻起旧账来，可尴尬的很。
“不过，小师弟的确还太小了些，得为他准备一些东西。”
她一边琢磨着，一边前去传讯。
待她走后，林凡却是再度翻起白眼。
“还不下山？还不下山，我那些八珍鸡还真会被他给嚯嚯了！”
只能说，荒天帝不愧是荒天帝。
进步太快了。
悟性亦是逆天。
自己传给他的不完整版行字秘，这才多久？他愣是凭借洞天境修为修行成功，甚至还达到小成境界！
若非八珍鸡、八珍鸭们在面临生死劫难之时尽皆爆种，加快了速度，必然都已被小石头嚯嚯了不少。
当然，也不是不能让他吃。
只是···
别这么快啊！
好歹等那些小鸡长大，开始生蛋了再吃不是？
所以，咳。
若是小石头自己愿意外出历练，将他外放，无疑是最好的选择。
“至于这十年大劫，事已至此，便也无需犹豫了。”
“大不了，便当做我的一次尝试，尝试···我若是主动将劫难解决，大劫当日，是否还会有新的劫难蹦出来？”
“···”
······
林凡与揽月宗都在积极准备。
但这一日，却是接到刘家消息。
刘家家主刘万里亲自前来，与林凡密探：“林兄。”
刘万里拱了拱手，面色严肃：“我们刘家，许是遇上大麻烦了。”
“哦？”
林凡神情一凝：“还请详谈。”
“刘家在东北域售卖丹药之事，林兄已然知晓，我便不过多赘述，而之前，犬子应当与林兄说过，有人盯上了刘家。”
“是有此事。”
“在那之后，我们刘家也是动用一切关系、人脉、手段，最终发现，盯上刘家的，乃是玄火丹塔！”
“甚至，如今，犬子以及诸多刘家在东北域的核心人员都有人盯着，目前，他们的目的还不明确，但绝无好事。”
“只是···”刘万里神色难看。
玄火丹塔太过强横了，他们全然是不其对手，如今被他们盯上，自然是寝食难安。
“原来如此！”
林凡恍然。
“此事我大致知道缘由，且正准备破局。”
“刘兄无需太多担忧，若一切顺利，不久之后此事便可迎刃而解。”
“那便多谢林兄了。”刘万里大喜：“不知可有用得着刘家的地方？若有，还请林兄莫要客气，尽管吩咐便是！”
“···”
从揽月宗离开时，刘万里心中，感慨万千。
曾几何时，揽月宗不过是蝼蚁一般的存在，反手可灭？
自己真正注意上揽月宗，也是从洪武仙城炼丹大会开始。
那时，其实自己也动过歪心思，想要将萧灵儿‘抢回来’。
好在，自己向来无比‘谨慎’，做事稳妥，因此，才让刘洵那小子去接触、去看情况办事。
后来，与之交好，其后，进行多次‘投资’。
当初，刘家的实力，何止百倍于揽月宗？
到如今···
揽月宗有事儿，刘家的战力，却几乎帮不上什么大忙了。
“实力啊！”
“呼！！！”
刘万里突然露出笑容：“这些年来，为了家族，我殚精竭虑、不敢有半点松懈，终于是让刘家成功踏入正轨，纵然没有我时刻盯着，也无碍了。”
“待此事了了，那兔崽子回来，便将家主之位传给他吧。”
“只要，那兔崽子不乱来，便出不了大事。”
“为家族兢兢业业半生，连自己的修为都荒废多年，也是时候重新捡起来，心无旁骛的修炼了啊。”
“身为揽月宗第一个‘盟友’，我刘家，总不能就这般被甩在身后，直至遥不可见吧？”
这一刻。
他突然意气风发。
好似回到了当年。
未曾成为刘家家主的那些年，刘家猛虎刘万里之名，又何尝不是名动一方？
“我刘万里虽非真龙，却也是一方猛虎！”
他有如此自信。
黄金大世、天骄遍地？
那又如何？
自己，同样可有一席之地！
······
月余之后。
龙傲娇出关。
她昂首挺胸，那一对大道理晃晃悠悠，此刻，乃是‘黑傲娇’的外观，但嗨丝，却是换了一套。
她竟然在闭关的空闲时间内，自己炼制了一双新‘袜子’。
还是极为那啥的马油过膝袜！
林凡看到她的第一眼，还特么以为她被某个穿越者夺舍了。
毕竟这种‘油袜’，莫说是在这个时代，哪怕是在‘现代’，都···啧啧啧。
见他离不开眼，龙傲娇更是傲娇了，抱着膀子，下巴几乎翘到天上，乐呵呵道：“如何？本姑娘的手艺，比陆鸣那王八蛋强出不少吧？”
这些臭男人~
呵！
移不开眼了吧？
那就对了！
本姑娘是谁？
是男人时，本姑娘能迷倒无数少女。
此刻暂且以女儿身示人，却也要超过所有女子，让所有臭男人都为自己而倾倒！
自己‘随手’设计的袜子，也是勾人无比呀！
我特么自己看了都把持不住，若非这袜子乃是‘灵器’，只怕早已被我自己摸烂了好吧？
龙傲娇突感心情复杂。
他妈的对自己有兴趣，还是男女之间那种兴趣，就离谱！！！
而她这话，却是让林凡眼皮直跳。
你特么当着我这个稻草人的面骂我本尊，过分了吧？
他移开目光，没接话，反倒是看向芙宁娜与蒂安娜，道：“看见她的袜子了吗？把样式和质感记下来，待你们入第三境之后，便去火德峰学炼器。”
“然后替自己炼上几双。”
“是，主人。”
两大圣女恭恭敬敬应下。
龙傲娇：“！！！”
马德！
贱人！
他抄袭！
He plagiarized me!!!
She was about to lose her temper when she heard Lin Fan say, "Go to the Alchemy Pavilion. Ling'er wants to see you."
Long Aojiao: “…”
I wanted to get angry, but then I thought, forget it.
What’s more important is my future Taoist partner. This girl Xiao Ling’er is… so fragrant!
Don't keep her waiting for too long, I won't argue with you.
······
Outside the Alchemy Pavilion.
There are medicinal fields all over the mountains.
The spiritual soil was purchased at a high price, or was "collected" by Lin Fan and others outside. The best quality part came from the Eight Swords Immortal Mansion.
Wang Teng dug it up from the garden.
Today, these spiritual soils have been transformed into spiritual fields, where many valuable spiritual medicines are planted. However, these spiritual medicines all take a lot of time to grow and require careful care.
Therefore, the more precious the spiritual medicine, the closer it is planted to the Alchemy Pavilion.
After all, compared to ordinary outer disciples and menial disciples, the alchemist himself is the one who understands spiritual medicine best and is the best at growing it.
Originally, Long Aojiao didn't care about these things. After all, his "future wife" often needed him and would support him, so why should he worry about not having elixirs to eat? Why should he care about these things?
As for that 'unfaithful man' Lu Ming, bah, I don't want to bother with him.
However, even if I have never paid special attention to it in the past, I have seen it after all.
Seeing each other again at this moment, she couldn't help but stop.
"Growing up so fast?!"
She was extremely surprised.
These precious elixirs grow extremely slowly, requiring hundreds, even thousands, or tens of thousands of years to truly "mature". Even with secret methods of ripening them, it is still very time-consuming and the growth is extremely slow.
But now, I have only been in seclusion for two or three months, but these elixirs seem to have experienced a hundred years...
How could this be?!
She was stunned.
He could not help but grab a busy outer sect disciple and ask, "Why are these spiritual herbs growing so well in just two or three months?"
"That's naturally because of Princess Lilith!" The outer disciple's face was full of admiration.
"Princess Lilith..."
Hearing the word "princess", Long Aojiao couldn't help but think of his seventh princess, ahem...
Now, I did that to her, and there is no follow-up. Maybe I should go and see if she needs any help now? If she does...
After all, she is my woman, so there is nothing wrong with giving her a hand.
"Yes, it's Princess Lilith, an elven princess whom we have never heard of before. She... oh, she is there."
Long Aojiao looked in the direction of the voice, but after a glance, she couldn't hear what the outer disciple said.
My mind was filled with only one thought.
damn it!
How can a person be so big?!
She couldn't help but look down...
Suddenly I felt unhappy for no reason.
With a cold snort, he entered the Alchemy Pavilion, passed Huoyun'er and entered Xiao Ling'er's secret room with ease, and then... he saw Xiao Ling'er and Yao Lao.
At this moment, Long Aojiao only felt his head buzzing. He stared at Yao Lao with a depressed look on his face.
And it’s so fucking big?!
Why does it feel like the whole world has changed so dramatically after only two or three months of seclusion? !
"Ms. Long."
Xiao Ling'er chuckled at this moment and said, "You've come out of seclusion?"
"Speaking of which, there is something I want to trouble you with, Miss Long."
Long Aojiao: “…”
·····
Half a month later.
Outside the sphere of influence of Xuanhuo Danta, a group of five people quietly showed up.
Lin Fan, Xiao Ling'er, Yaya, Yao Lao, and Long Aojiao.
At this moment, they avoided everyone's eyes and ears, staring at the Xuanhuo Dan Tower with unfriendly expressions.
"The relevant personnel and preparations are all in place." Lin Fan whispered, "Let's get started."
"Thank you for taking the risk together."
Medicine grandmother whispered.
Everyone activated the art of transformation together and turned into an inconspicuous inner disciple of Xuanhuo Danta.
"Please follow me."
Then, Medicine Grandma led the way.
"This Xuanhuo Dan Tower was originally built by me, and some of the secret passages should still be there today."
