Chapter 173 Changes in Xiyu Pavilion
Qingxin Cottage.
Chen Ping'er asked about the reason for the dispute, and Ning Daoran told her the truth.
"Humph, Master Yanlong, relying on the fact that he has a third-stage early stage spirit beast and is Sister Xingtong's great uncle, has indeed already regarded Xiyu Pavilion as his own family business."
She pursed her red lips and smiled, "In fact, he is just an old man with a weird personality. You don't have to bother with him. But I admire you very much for being able to fight with a great Jindan master for such a long time."
"You are joking, fellow Taoist."
Ning Daoran frowned and said, "Several times, I was almost killed by this old man's magic weapon. If I hadn't bought so many speed talismans from you, I would probably die in the back mountain of your Xiyu Pavilion today."
"well……"
Chen Ping'er sighed. She also knew that Ning Daoran was resentful, which was human nature.
It goes without saying that some comfort will follow.
…
The next day.
Chen Ping'er arrived early and brought breakfast with several maids.
The breakfast at Xiyu Pavilion was exceptionally exquisite. After a night of practice, Ning Daoran’s anger had subsided and he was able to eat and drink.
After eating, I followed Chen Ping'er to a suspended pavilion built between two hills, where the scenery was unique.
"Friend Ning."
An old man exuding the aura of golden elixir stood up. He was dressed in a white robe and looked like an immortal. No matter from which angle you looked at him, he was a kind-hearted senior master.
But he is the supreme elder Changsun Wang, the great golden elixir master who regards Fairy Yunlan as a cultivation cauldron and even attempts to practice dual cultivation with Madam Xingtong.
Chang Sunwang smiled and said, "It's a rare opportunity for Little Friend Ning to come visit us in person. It's a great honor for our Xiyu Pavilion!"
"You're welcome, senior!"
After some pleasantries, the two got down to business.
"Senior, can I take a look at the third-level true feather first?"
"Can."
Chang Sunwang turned around and said, "Come here, bring the third-level true feather."
"Yes, ancestor!"
Not long after, several foundation-building monks arrived, and the middle-aged man in the lead was holding a brocade box with a restriction. When the brocade box was opened, a snow-white real feather was placed inside.
The Phoenix Feather was the only missing ingredient for the Level 3, Intermediate Grade White Feather Flowing Sound Formation! Ning Daoran was slightly excited and asked, "I wonder what price you would like to sell this item for?"
"Sixty thousand spirit stones."
Chang Sunwang opened his mouth and said with a smile: "Or, Mr. Ning, you can exchange it with a spiritual weapon and spiritual stones."
"good."
Ning Daoran tapped the storage bag lightly, and immediately, spiritual weapons with rich auras floated out one by one from the storage bag. There were a total of thirteen spiritual weapons, four of which were top-grade, and the rest were high- and medium-grade.
He was so sincere that he didn't even take out a low-grade spiritual weapon.
Of course, this batch of treasures also avoided the relics left by Master Bai Ming. Most of them were obtained by Old Monster Jinxia during previous explorations of the secret realm, so as to avoid causing unnecessary trouble.
"Little friend Ning actually has such a background..."
Chang Sunwang's eyes were bright and he smiled and said, "Where did you get so many spiritual weapons, young man?"
"I collected it from my fellow apprentices."
Ning Daoran said, "I have a good relationship with people in the sect. I have made a lot of money from growing third-level spiritual rice in recent years. I got these spiritual tools from my fellow disciples in exchange for the spiritual stones from selling spiritual rice. Senior, please tell me how much I need."
"Um!"
Zhang Sunwang said happily: "If you value these spirit stones of yours, it is about 30,000 spirit stones. As a distinguished guest of my Xiyu Pavilion, you came last night..."
He smiled meaningfully: "I heard that you fought with the Yanlong Master, and it took a short time to determine the winner. This is really impressive. In view of this, you can pay the difference of 20,000 spirit stones and take this real feather. How about it?"
"Okay, senior, happy!"
Ning Daoran immediately took out a storage bag, which contained exactly 20,000 spirit stones.
The money and goods are settled.
Ning Daoran put the third-level true feather into the storage bag, and then bowed to Changsun Wang and said goodbye.
…
Between the green mountains, on the long corridor.
"Fellow Daoist Ning..."
Chen Ping'er was wearing a white dress, holding a long sword, with a delicate spiritual mark on her forehead. She said in a voice transmission: "Thank you, Fellow Daoist Ning..."
"Why are you thanking me, fellow Taoist?"
"Thank you for coming to Xiyu Pavilion and doing such a big business."
Chen Ping'er looked calm and said in a voice transmission: "It is precisely because of Ning Daoran's business that I, Chen Ping'er, have value to Xiyu Pavilion and have the confidence to refuse to become the concubine of the Grand Elder."
"I see."
Ning Daoran put one hand behind his back, looked at the Yunhe in the mountains, and said with a smile: "Fellow Daoist Chen, you are too polite. I originally needed this Fundamental Life True Feather. We are both getting what we need. I didn't do this deliberately for you."
"I know."
Chen Ping'er covered her mouth and smiled, "But this matter really helped me a lot, so you don't have to be so polite."
"Okay."
Ning Daoran said: "Since the transaction has been completed, I will return to Chaos Sect immediately. Fellow Daoist Chen, we will see you in Huanglong Market."
"oh?"
Chen Ping'er was slightly stunned: "Fellow Daoist, aren't you going back with our flying boat?"
"No, I'll be more comfortable alone."
"Whatever."
Chen Ping'er smiled and said, "Then Ping'er will not try to keep you, fellow Taoist. We will meet again in Huanglongfang City."
"Goodbye!"
…
Ning Daoran turned into a flash of light and left Xiyu Pavilion directly.
In the mountains, there is a gentle breeze and flocks of cranes.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
In addition to Ning Daoran, there were also a number of Xiyu Pavilion's spirit boats traveling up and down the mountain. On the mountain paths, there were also mortal porters busy coming and going, transporting the necessities of life up the mountain.
"Um?"
Suddenly, Ning Daoran felt alert.
He hurriedly twisted his body and activated the Acalanatha magic technique of returning to nature. Immediately, all the aura and magical fluctuations in his body disappeared. At the same time, he performed the invisibility technique, sound absorption technique, and wood escape technique, and floated into an ancient tree beside the rock.
Several powerful auras are flying in, mixing in with the crowd of low-level cultivators and passing through the mountain protection formation of Xiyu Pavilion!
Among them, there was actually a breath of the middle stage of the Golden Core! Ning Daoran narrowed his eyes, activated his pupil technique to the peak, and looked from a distance, and saw an old man in a white robe with his hands behind his back, floating into the mountain gate.
Soon after, more and more auras were no longer concealed.
Dozens of foundation-building auras burst out at the same time and headed towards the mountain.
In addition, there were flying boats across the sky outside the mountain, with the battle flags of the Jiuyun Sect flying on them, clearly looking like a large army approaching.
Moreover, there is a golden elixir! Ning Daoran used his powerful spiritual sense to scan and caught another golden elixir aura. The golden elixir aura flashed and disappeared, as if it was deliberately hiding itself.
Moreover, it was actually a late Jindan aura! Master Jiuyun?! Ning Daoran was stunned. Could it be that even the great elder of Jiuyun Sect was here?
It seems that after twenty years of planning, Jiuyun Sect has finally decided to take action again, and this time they are heading straight for the headquarters of Xiyu Pavilion, probably aiming to completely destroy Xiyu Pavilion.
Ning Daoran had no intention of getting involved in the dispute between Jiuyun Sect and Xiyu Pavilion.
Although he had some friendship with Chen Ping'er, he still couldn't afford to offend the Jiuyun Sect for Chen Ping'er. This would be very unwise.
…
"My Jiuyun Sect officially declares war on Xiyu Pavilion!"
Outside the mountain, on a giant spiritual boat, a Jindan master roared with thunder: "Everyone in Xiyu Pavilion who hands over their treasures and surrenders will be spared! Those who refuse to change their ways will be killed without mercy!"
At one time, countless Jiuyun Sect monks offered up their treasures.
Xiyu Pavilion's mountain protection formation was divided into two layers, the inner and outer layers. The outer formation was breached in less than an incense stick of time.
What's even more terrible is that some Jindan cultivators from Jiuyun Sect have already entered the inner mountain to attack Huanglong directly.
“Swish!”
Ning Daoran walked out of the ancient tree gracefully, raised his hand and scattered dozens of Grade B paper figures. These paper figures either escaping through the earth or wood, and disappeared from sight in the blink of an eye.
There are two purposes for sending out paper people. One is to gather information, and the other is to investigate the whereabouts of Chen Ping'er and Yin Muxue. If the two women can be rescued by relying on paper people, such a risk-free thing can naturally be done.
Afterwards, Ning Daoran changed his position and escaped into a patch of thorns in the mountains. He once again entered a state where a trace of his aura was exposed.
Not long after.
A paper man got a very important message.
One of the great elders of Jiuyun Sect, Taoist Yunyan, who has the cultivation of the middle stage of Jindan, killed Changsun Wang in dozens of rounds in the main hall of Xiyu Pavilion, and then had a bloody battle with the guest elder of Xiyu Pavilion, Zhenren Yanlong, in the valley! Zhenren Yanlong has a strong character. He fought against the powerful enemy together with Di Yanlong and vowed to live and die with Xiyu Pavilion.
After a fierce battle, neither the man nor the beast could resist their opponent.
Taoist Yunyan's killing methods were extremely fierce, especially the six third-grade medium-quality magic weapons, Yi Mu Flying Swords. The killing power of these six flying swords combined with the wood-attributed sword techniques was extremely terrifying, and they directly severely injured Taoist Yanlong.
Based on the spiritual perception of the B-grade paper man who was secretly watching the battle, Ning Daoran could only see some vague scenes of the fight.
After Master Yanlong was severely injured, the Earth Rock Dragon attacked like crazy, even at the risk of damaging its own body, and swallowed three Yi Mu flying swords in one gulp.
In the end, the seriously injured Zhenren Yanlong and Diyanlong retreated into the inner mountain formation under the cover of several foundation-building cultivators.
Madam Xingtong personally took charge of the formation and continued to resist the fierce attack from the Jiuyun Sect.
…
Half a day later.
A paper man escaped into several ruined caves and found two corpses.
One of the bodies was Fairy Yunlan, and the other was Chen Ping'er's disciple Yin Muxue.
The two women struggled desperately before their deaths, and their bodies were beaten to pieces by the monks of Jiuyun Sect. However, no trace of Chen Ping'er was found, as if she had disappeared out of thin air.
Ning Daoran disguised himself as a young cultivator, secretly went down the mountain, and lived in the market town at the foot of the mountain that was already controlled by the Jiuyun Sect.
Two days later.
There is a rumor among the people that Master Yanlong died of his injuries. Before he died, he passed the powerful third-stage early-stage spirit beast, the Earth Rock Dragon, to Madam Xingtong.
After the Earth Rock Dragon recognized Madam Xingtong as its master, she became the true master of Xiyu Pavilion. Afterwards, she activated the mountain protection ban, recalled all the monks of Xiyu Pavilion, and showed her determination to fight to the death with Jiuyun Sect! (End of this chapter)
