Chapter 204: Oops, he is here to show off his apprentice son-in-law
"Brother, we are truly one family."
"Brother, if you had told me earlier that the technique you practiced was related to the mountain, we would have been brothers a long time ago, and this would never have happened."
"Brother, the underground fire and the mountains come from the same source. We have the same mother, Mother Earth."
…
…
The Fire Spirit kept talking, and Chu Ning's mouth twitched. He did not rule out the possibility that the Fire Spirit made up these words in order to beg for mercy, but when he thought about it carefully, it seemed to make sense.
The mountains he cultivated absorbed the energy of the earth's veins, and the earth fire was also bred by the earth's veins, but the earth fire was bred by the fire energy in the earth's veins.
"Brother, I really didn't lie to you. We are a family."
"Didn't you see me performing the Mountain Moving Technique before?" Chu Ning asked in a deep voice.
"Then I can't recognize it. I'm just a child who has just awakened to spiritual wisdom. I took advantage of the weakest period of each cycle of the formation to secretly look at the outside world, and that's how I got to know this world a little bit."
The fire spirit's words were full of grievances: "You cultivators have so many spells, let alone evolving a mountain, even summoning a fire dragon is no problem. But I can't just go up to someone who summons a fire dragon and call him my brother."
"Brother, I really didn't lie to you. Let's put it this way. If you don't believe me, there is still a lot of time. Time will tell and you will know my heart in the future."
Listening to Huo Ling's series of words, Chu Ning had a feeling that this guy was a chatterbox.
You are so good at talking nonsense.
"Stay at the bottom of this mountain for now."
"No, big brother, please let me out first, or refine me directly. I will definitely not resist this time."
Chu Ning's face darkened, and the peak of his dantian sank downwards.
"Just stay here for now, just stay here for now, don't get excited, big brother."
The fire spirit begged for mercy in a panic, and Chu Ning stopped the mountain from sinking any further. No matter whether what the fire spirit said was true or not, at least it was suppressed by him.
“This woman…”
Chu Ning lowered his head and looked at Feng Ange beside him.
"Brother, listen to my advice and just sleep with this woman. Women will be obedient once they are slept with."
The Fire Spirit was unwilling to be lonely and spoke again: "If you can't sleep with me once, then sleep with me a few more times."
"Shut up."
Chu Ning scolded, this fire spirit didn't listen to anything from the outside world, not only was he a chatterbox, but also a vagrant.
Sleeping with the Lord of Wind City is definitely impossible.
Therefore, we still have to proceed according to the original plan.
Chu Ning placed his right hand on his chest, and soon flames appeared on his palm, causing his chest to appear charred.
"Brother, this isn't realistic. Let me do it for you."
"If you say one more word of nonsense to me, I will kill you."
Fire Spirit: ...
He let his chest turn black and his clothes be burned in many places, then he walked up to Feng Angge, pried open Feng Angge's red lips, and fed her a pill.
After the pill entered his stomach, a dozen breaths later, Feng Ange's eyelashes blinked lightly, and Chu Ning knew that he was about to wake up.
"Lord Feng, wake up?"
Boom! A powerful spiritual power surged out from Feng Ange's body, directly knocking Chu Ning out more than ten meters.
Feng Ange opened his eyes, and when he saw the clothes on his body, his face turned cold. The next moment, he scanned the entire space and looked at Chu Ning with a scrutinizing look: "Fellow Daoist Chu, I need an explanation."
"Lord Feng, this is what happened. When I smashed the golden egg, a turkey flew into your forehead."
"That's not a turkey, that's a Golden Crow, the Golden Crow senior who signed a contract with our clan."
Feng Ange's tone was somewhat dissatisfied. Chu Ning smiled awkwardly: "Yes, it was the Golden Crow. The Golden Crow flew into the center of City Lord Feng's eyebrows, and then..."
Chu Ning's words were nine-tenths true and one-tenth false. The only lie was that the Golden Crow was going to fly back to Feng Angge's forehead and be swallowed by Lao Hei. In his mouth, the Golden Crow and the Fire Spirit died together.
Feng Ange's phoenix eyes were fixed on Chu Ning, and even her spiritual sense was locked on Chu Ning. If Chu Ning was lying, she would be able to sense the fluctuations in his soul.
But Chu Ning's mind was not disturbed at all. Either what Chu Ning said was true, or this person was so shameless that lying was as common as practicing.
"Did they perish together?"
"I'm not sure either. I saw the turkey... No... After the Golden Crow transformed and shot out the blade, the fire spirit spit out a wisp of black and purple flame and swallowed the Golden Crow, and then..."
Having said that, Chu Ning smiled awkwardly, and Feng Ange felt a little confused by Chu Ning's smile.
She knew what Chu Ning was embarrassed about, and she was embarrassed too.
My clothes have been changed, and the only one who can change my clothes is Chu Ning.
The man looked at his body.
"You are not allowed to tell anyone about what happened in the stone tower. This city lord will also investigate. If you are found to be lying, this city lord will never forgive you."
"Don't worry, City Lord Feng. I have no other advantages except that I keep my mouth shut." After Chu Ning made his promise, he asked, "City Lord Feng, since Senior Jinwu has perished together with the Fire Spirit, will it not have an impact on your Feng family?"
According to the natal contract, the person who signs the contract and the monster should share life and death, but this is obviously not the case with the Feng family.
Otherwise, all the ancestors of the Feng family who had formed a life contract with the Golden Crow were dead, so there is no reason why the Golden Crow would still be alive.
He asked this question not because he cared about the Feng family, but because he wanted to see if he could get some inspiration from it so that he could change the life contract between him and Lao Hei.
Lao Hei's greedy and fearless behavior this time sounded a wake-up call for him.
This guy is unreliable.
"The life contract between my Feng family and Senior Jinwu is somewhat different. If Senior Jinwu really perishes together with the Fire Spirit, the descendants of our clan will no longer have the Jinwu bloodline."
Feng Ange, as the city lord and the patriarch of the Feng family, knows secrets that other members of the family are not aware of.
Rather than saying that their Feng family ancestors had formed a life contract with Senior Jinwu, it would be more accurate to say that they had reached an agreement.
At that time, the ancestor of the Feng family accidentally met this seriously injured Senior Jinwu, and the two sides reached an agreement.
The Feng family guarded the underground fire so that the Golden Crow senior had enough time to recover from his injuries. In return, the Golden Crow senior would give the Feng family members the Golden Crow bloodline.
Every member of the Feng family must come to the ancient pagoda when they are one year old. On the surface, this is a ritual of the Feng family, but in reality it is to plant the Golden Crow bloodline in their bodies.
With the Golden Crow bloodline, one can practice the three secret techniques given by the Golden Crow.
However, over the years, the Golden Crow bloodline in the tribe's bodies has become increasingly weak, and there are only a few tribesmen who can practice the three secret techniques.
Feng Ange had doubted whether the bloodline power bestowed by this senior Jinwu had been weakened intentionally.
But over the years, the Feng family has made it their mission to protect Senior Jinwu. Even though she had such a guess in her mind, she had never revealed it to any member of the clan.
Now Senior Jinwu and the Earth Fire Spirit have really died together. To some extent, this is also a relief for the Feng family.
If not for this, she wouldn't be willing to let Chu Ning go so easily.
Now that the spirit of the earth fire has dissipated, this fifth-level earth fire will return to calm, and it will take hundreds or even thousands of years for spiritual intelligence to be born again.
At that time, it was unknown whether the Feng family was still in Fire Phoenix City. Without having to protect Senior Jinwu, the Feng family was free from shackles and no longer had to guard Fire Phoenix City.
…
…
The flames outside the ancient tower dissipated, and the solemn expression on Feng Wensu's face as he stood on the stone bridge faded a little, but he still did not let down his guard.
Seven days later, there was an energy fluctuation in the stone tower formation, and Feng Wensu and the other four elders all immediately looked at the entrance to the formation.
When they saw two figures walking out from inside, Feng Wensu and the other three finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Lord Feng, I will take my leave now."
Chu Ning and Feng Ange walked out of the ancient tower one after the other. The first thing Chu Ning did after leaving the ancient tower was to say goodbye to Feng Ange. Without waiting for Feng Ange's response, he disappeared into the sky in a flash of rainbow light.
"City Lord, what's happening to Chu Xiaoyou?"
Feng Wensu saw Chu Ning leaving in a hurry without even saying hello, and there was a look of confusion on his old face.
Feng Ange's expression remained unchanged, and he said calmly, "Fellow Daoist Chu stayed in the stone tower for too long, and was afraid that his relatives and friends would worry about him, so he left first."
This explanation made the four elders Feng Wensu feel puzzled. They always felt that the situation was not that simple. It seemed that Young Master Chu could not wait to escape.
However, in the Feng family, the city lord's words are above everything else. Even though Feng Wensu and the other three had some doubts in their hearts, they would not question Feng Angge's explanation.
Thousands of miles away from Fire Phoenix City, Chu Ning slowed down and used his underground boat to travel underground.
Half a day later, Chu Ning arrived at Juling City.
It turned out that his master was in seclusion making elixirs, and Xu Ruobing and Xu Hongsheng, father and daughter, were not there either.
"Master, since my master is in seclusion refining pills, I won't wait any longer. When my master comes out, please tell him that I'm going back to Xiyue Sect first."
Xiang Zhaozheng listened to Chu Ning's words, hesitated for a moment, and said: "If you want to return to Xiyue Sect, I will discuss with your master and several elders and plan to make you the young sect leader."
Xiang Zhaozheng wanted to fully protect the Wenjin Sect in his heart, but now he was facing a powerful enemy, the Xuantian Sect, and formed an alliance with the Xu family and Jiang Yuanrang.
"Sect Master, I am not qualified to be the Young Sect Master. If anyone wants to be the Young Sect Master, it should be Senior Brother Gu, and Senior Brother Zeng is also suitable."
Chu Ning declined politely. He had no interest in the title of Young Sect Leader.
"There is still no news about Fanzhou. As for Wenbo, he has returned, but he has no hope of forming a pill in this lifetime. If we make Wenbo the young master, it will be hard to convince the people."
Xiang Zhaozheng's words made Chu Ning's expression darken. He knew that the sect leader was telling the truth.
It was already very good that Zeng Wenbo was able to maintain his cultivation despite suffering such a serious injury. If his foundation was damaged, it would be impossible for him to break through.
But Senior Brother Gu has not shown up for so many years, which he had not expected.
As long as Senior Brother Gu is still in the Hundred Cities area, he should know the news of the sect’s reconstruction. There is no reason for him not to come back.
"Brother Gu may be in seclusion practicing and he doesn't know the news yet. Brother Gu is more suitable to be the young master than me."
Chu Ning refused again, and added: "Although I am not the young master, I am still a member of the Jin Sect. If the Jin Sect needs me, I will definitely not stand idly by."
Xiang Zhaozheng looked at Chu Ning deeply. When he wanted to appoint Chu Ning as the young sect leader, the other elders had no objection, except Elder Xie.
It seems that Elder Xie knows his disciple Chu Ning very well.
"Since you, Chu Ning, are not interested in the position of Young Sect Master, I will not force you. Wait until your master finishes refining this batch of pills. Even if your master does not go to Xiyue Sect, I will urge him to go to Xiyue Sect to propose marriage for you."
Xiang Zhaozheng laughed. If Chu Ning's identity as the son-in-law of Xiyue Sect was confirmed, it would be a great help to Wenjin Sect. At least in this way, Xuantian Sect would recruit other forces from Hundred Cities to deal with Wenjin Sect. These forces would have to consider whether it would bring revenge from Xiyue Sect.
Watching Chu Ning fly away on his sword, Xiang Zhaozheng put away the smile on his face, and there was a hint of sadness in his eyes. After so many years, Fan Zhou still did not show up. He had already prepared for the worst.
…
…
Chu Ning returned to Xiyue Sect, and life returned to its original tranquility.
Seven months later, Xie Shouping and Xiang Zhaozheng came to Xiyue Sect. As Chu Ning's teachers and elders, they formally proposed marriage to Xiyue Sect.
There were no disturbances or accidents in this proposal, but the Xiyue Sect postponed the wedding date, planning to hold it after Tang Ruowei achieved the golden elixir stage.
Chu Ning didn't see any point in this. Tang Xiaoniu had already been eaten by him anyway, so if he held the wedding later, he would receive the gifts later.
Ten years later, the eight spiritual springs in Tang Ruowei's body were filled to the brim, and she began to attack the last spiritual spring in the late foundation building stage.
During these ten years, Chu Ning's realm still remained at the early stage of the Golden Core, but the strength of his spiritual awareness had already caught up with the late stage of the Golden Core, making him the true number one person in spiritual awareness below the late stage of the Golden Core.
Without the opportunity, Chu Ning's cultivation speed slowed down, but fortunately, the mountain he cultivated was still growing steadily.
Twenty years later, Tang Ruowei officially reached the great perfection of the late foundation building stage, while Chu Ning was still in the early stage of golden elixir.
Jindan realm, if one suddenly reaches a small realm in fifty years, he is considered a genius. Chu Ning’s current cultivation speed is just returning to normal.
In the past twenty years, the entire world of cultivators has been calm, or to be more precise, the environment in which Chu Ning lives has been calm.
The world of cultivators has never been peaceful. Outside of the Xiyue Sect, one can still see cultivators fighting each other for some treasures or opportunities.
A large sect like the peaceful Xiyue Sect.
Over the past twenty years, the Xuantian Sect seemed to have laid low, no longer stirring up trouble in the Hundred Cities area, and had also withdrawn its spies from Lanyue City.
But the more Xiyue Sect did this, the more Chu Ning dared not to take it lightly, and he has not stepped out of Xiyue Sect in the past twenty years.
Whoosh! Tang Ruowei, wearing a red dress, landed on the peak of the Hundred-foot Mountain.
There is a huge round rock on the top of the mountain with three big characters engraved on it: Nian Tangshan.
The name of the mountain sounds very rustic, but every time Tang Ruowei sees it, a blush appears on her face.
The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!
This mountain belongs to Chu Ning, and the name of the mountain was given by Chu Ning. The original name was Aitangshan, and the meaning is easy to understand.
But it was too easy to understand, and Tang Ruowei felt a little embarrassed. In the end, she used a more euphemistic name and named it Nian Tangshan.
The most romantic thing in the world is not to watch the snow with you until you are old, but to build a mountain for you.
Tang Ruowei was just like those little girls in her previous life. She was so moved that she couldn't help herself when her boyfriend bought the so-called star naming rights for a hundred dollars.
Love star.
Thinking of a certain star.
Or simply a certain star.
However, Chu Ning denied that he was the same as these men. Those men were poor, but he was not.
He named the mountain like this sincerely. As for the fact that Tang Xiaoniu was so moved that she fulfilled several of his previous requests, that was purely Tang Xiaoniu's personal behavior. He really didn't expect to have such a gain.
"Chun Ning!"
Tang Ruowei walked to the flat ground on one side of the mountain top, where Chu Ning was leisurely lying on a rattan chair fishing.
At the top of the mountain, Chu Ning opened up a cave, and he also moved from Hongri Peak to Niantang Mountain. He specially dug a pond and raised dozens of fish.
"What's wrong?"
Chu Ning looked at Tang Ruowei who was sitting next to him. He could sense that something was wrong with Tang Ruowei's mood today.
"I...I am thinking again whether I should withdraw from this secret realm quota and enter again in twenty years."
Tang Ruowei expressed her distress.
After she had completed the foundation building, her master began to prepare for her to form a golden elixir. Xiyue Sect has a secret realm for forming a golden elixir, and the chance of forming a golden elixir by entering the secret realm will be greatly increased.
However, this secret realm opens once every twenty years, and only five people can enter at a time. If Tang Ruowei goes in, she will definitely take up the place of another disciple.
"Senior Sister Huang could have entered this time, but if I went in, Senior Sister Huang would have to wait another 20 years. However, Senior Sister Huang is not young anymore. If she waits another 20 years, she will lose the qualification to enter the secret realm."
Tang Ruowei was distressed because the number of places allocated to the secret realm was limited each time. Senior Sister Huang was her master's registered disciple. If she went there, Senior Sister Huang could not go, otherwise the senior sisters from other mountains would definitely be dissatisfied.
The sect stipulates that one must be two hundred years old before entering the secret realm. Senior Sister Huang is already one hundred and ninety years old. If she fails to enter this time, she will not be able to enter next time.
"Senior Sister Huang, you are talking about Huang Xiuchun, right?"
Seeing Tang Ruowei nod, Chu Ning's mind also appeared the appearance of Senior Sister Huang.
When Tang Ruowei first went to Jincheng to find her, Huang Xiuchun was already in the late stage of foundation building. Decades have passed, so it is normal for him to be able to break through to the golden elixir stage now.
"What do you think is the chance of Senior Sister Huang forming a pill after entering the secret realm?"
"Seventy percent."
Tang Ruowei pondered for a moment and gave a prediction.
"Seventy percent, not low."
Chu Ning narrowed his eyes. Normally, the probability of a cultivator in the late foundation building stage to form a pill is 30% to 40%. If the probability is 50%, many cultivators in the late foundation building stage will give it a try.
"Then do you think that Senior Sister Huang is worth your delay for these twenty years?"
"When I first came to Xiyue Sect, Master accepted me as his disciple, but my realm was relatively low at that time, so I was taught by Senior Sister Huang and Senior Sister Liu. Senior Sister Huang taught me how to practice and answered my questions about practice, while Senior Sister Liu took care of me more in my daily life."
"Actually, you already have the answer in your heart, you just want my support, right?"
When Chu Ning heard Tang Ruowei's words, he knew that Tang Ruowei actually had an idea in her mind, but she didn't dare to tell her master, so she needed some encouragement from him, her closest person.
"Well, I want to give it to Senior Sister Huang. I am not even a hundred years old yet, so it doesn't matter if I reach the elixir stage twenty years later."
Tang Ruowei nodded heavily, and she really couldn't hide her thoughts from Chu Ning.
"Now that you've made the decision, go for it. I absolutely support you, but we don't need to postpone it for twenty years."
Seeing Tang Ruowei's puzzled eyes, Chu Ning smiled slightly and took out a jade box from the storage bag.
"Open it and take a look."
"What's in it?"
Tang Ruowei took the box and opened it with curiosity.
Bang! After just one look, Tang Ruowei suddenly closed the box again.
"Gold... Golden Dan Dao Fruit, Chu Ning, you... were you the one who asked about the Yao Qihua who killed people all over the place in Jinshan?"
Tang Ruowei opened her red lips slightly and looked at Chu Ning as if he were a monster, but the next moment she slapped her head in annoyance.
"Yes, Yao Qihua is so powerful, obviously he is not an ordinary foundation-building cultivator, and Chu Ning, you are a Jindan powerhouse. Why didn't I think of it? I am so stupid."
When Tang Ruowei went to Wenjin Mountain to look for Chu Ning's whereabouts, she also specifically learned about what happened on Wenjin Mountain and knew that two powerful men had appeared on Wenjin Mountain.
One is Yao Qihua, the other is Zhang Bairen, both are known as the two most talented guest elders of Wenjin Sect.
"Stop taking pictures. If you do, you'll be even more stupid."
Chu Ning smiled. It was not that Tang Xiaonu could not think of it, but that she did not think about it in this way. The girl was too naive and would not deliberately think about some unreasonable things about herself. In other words, she trusted herself very much.
"It's even dumber to take another shot?"
Tang Xiaoniu bit her silver teeth lightly, and suddenly said in a nonchalant tone: "I remember that the only golden elixir fruit that Wen Jinshan had obtained was obtained by the eldest daughter of the Xu family, and it was someone who deliberately didn't want it."
Chu Ning: ...
"It is true. I left this golden elixir to Zhang Bairen at that time. I didn't expect that Zhang Bairen would let this golden elixir fall into the hands of the eldest daughter of the Xu family. I was so angry."
Chu Ning spoke slowly without changing his expression. He believed that Tang Xiaoniu only knew the general idea of what happened in Wen Jinshan and could not know the detailed details.
He made this judgment based on his understanding of Tang Xiaoniu.
Tang Xiaoniu never asks questions about things she is not interested in.
"is that so?"
"Well, what else do you think? If it were me, I would leave the Golden Core Dao Fruit to the eldest lady of the Xu family. I wouldn't leave a single fart to the eldest lady of the Xu family."
Fellow Daoist Xu, I’m sorry.
"Yes, your principle is that there are only friends and enemies, not men and women."
Tang Ruowei believed it, and Chu Ning secretly wiped the sweat in his heart. Fortunately, the ideas he had instilled in Tang Xiaoniu on a daily basis worked.
"Then I'll go tell my master."
"Well, go ahead."
…
…
Moon Peak.
When Tang Ruowei said that they could not go to the secret realm, Duan Yurong's face immediately darkened.
"Ruo Wei, do you know what you are talking about?"
"Master, I know. I just think Senior Sister Huang needs to enter the secret realm more than I do."
Hearing Tang Ruowei mention Huang Xiuchun, Duan Yurong's expression eased a little, but she still sighed: "Ruowei, this quota can fall on our lineage. In fact, it is because the sect master and the elders took your situation into consideration. If it weren't for you, our lineage would not have a quota this time."
The secret realm opens once every twenty years, and the five places available each time are extremely precious. The allocation of places is determined based on the disciples' potential.
Huang Xiuchun only reached the late stage of foundation building at the age of 190. Even if he succeeded in forming the golden elixir, he would only be in the early stage of golden elixir in this life. If Huang Xiuchun were to compete for this position, he would not be able to succeed.
The quota for her lineage this time was reserved for Ruo Wei by the sect master and the elders. Although the quota was given to her lineage and Huang Xiuchun could indeed be allowed to enter, many elders would be dissatisfied with this.
"If you give the spot to your Senior Sister Huang, I'm afraid the other elders will gossip the next time the secret realm opens."
Which elder doesn't have disciples? If Ruo Wei gave up her place this time, she will take up another place next time. What will the elders who happen to have disciples in the late stage of foundation building think? "Master, I don't plan to enter the secret realm next time it opens."
“Nonsense!”
Duan Yurong's face darkened and she started to scold. Although there were disciples who had formed a golden elixir outside, the probability of forming a golden elixir by entering the secret realm would increase by at least 20%. How could they possibly give up such an opportunity?
"Master, I'm not kidding. Chu Ning gave me a good thing." Tang Ruowei took out the jade box, and her big eyes narrowed with a smile.
"Golden Dan Dao Fruit?"
Duan Yurong was also shocked by the golden elixir fruit in the jade box. Then, seeing the happy smile on her disciple's face, she felt helpless. Ruo Wei was afraid that she would be taken advantage of by Chu Ning for the rest of her life.
But on second thought, the fact that Chu Ning was able to produce the Golden Elixir Dao Fruit meant that he had already made preparations for Ruo Wei to form the elixir.
It is Ruo Wei's great fortune to have such a Taoist companion.
"Since you have the Golden Core Dao Fruit, you really don't need to enter the secret realm. I will give this place to Huang Xiuchun."
…
…
A quarter of an hour later, in Yuefeng Hall, Fei Yuelan played the role that Duan Yurong had played before.
"Junior Sister Duan, we can't let Ruo Wei do whatever she wants. If we give up this opportunity, not to mention the twenty years of delay, it will be hard to explain to the other elders."
Duan Yurong sighed slightly: "Sect Master, I have also advised Ruowei in this way, but Ruowei is a kind and nostalgic child, and I can't persuade her."
"You have to persuade me even if I can't persuade you. Junior Sister Duan, you can't be soft-hearted at this time."
"It's not that Junior Sister is soft-hearted. Ruo Wei said that Chu Ning gave her a treasure. I thought that no treasure could be more important than entering the secret realm to form a golden elixir. But I didn't expect that I would be slapped in the face. Chu Ning gave Ruo Wei a golden elixir fruit."
Fei Yuelan was silent, with the corners of her mouth curving downwards, so Junior Sister Duan came to show off her good disciple-in-law.
Without waiting for Duan Yurong to continue, he picked up the teacup and said, "This sect master has something important to do, so I'll leave first."
"metropolitan?"
Duan Yurong felt a little bored watching Fei Yuelan disappear. Naturally, the matter of the Golden Elixir Dao Fruit could not be publicized. The only person she could tell was her senior sister. She didn't expect that her senior sister was so impatient and left before she could even finish her words.
