In Qionghua Pavilion
“…”
Silence is the Lan family tonight.
The clouds in the sky changed, revealing the original night. The stars were twinkling, and the moon was high in the sky, casting a silver light on the ground. The spiritual plant garden was colorful, and the air was filled with the fragrance of flowers and plants.
Lian Qiao in the corridor ran back and forth until her feet were sore.
Lian Qiao didn't know how many times she had been to the Purple Moon Jade Flower. The Jiang family's Great Elder drank like a cow, gushing. The usually arrogant and domineering Wei family's Great Elder smiled kindly for the first time, while the eloquent Elder Lan Qianhua hesitated and looked embarrassed.
"This pill is too expensive..." Lan Qianhua pushed the pill, always feeling that friend Siyu was too wasteful. How could this be a gift given to anyone casually?
Qianluo smiled slightly: "I have plenty at home, don't worry, Elder."
This prompted Wei Wuji to interject, saying in a friendly tone, "Which district are you from, Siyu? Are there any elders in your family?"
Are you asking about your background again?
Where is that arrogant look just now?
Qian Luo pretended not to hear and glanced at the two Lan family elders behind her: "It is me who has brought trouble to the Lan family today. I also have two Condensing Gold Pills here. I hope the two elders will not blame me."
"What are you talking about!" Lan Qianhua came to her senses and immediately took her hand, with a kind face, "Siyu, you will be the Lan family's guest of honor from now on. You can stay here as long as you want!"
Lan Baicao got goose bumps when she saw her sister's attitude, and whispered to Master Lan: "She looks at Siyu like she's gold!"
Master Lan took a look and laughed, "After all, her identity... is extraordinary."
To be able to produce four Golden Cores at once, his family must have a legacy of alchemy! A sixth-grade alchemist is a no-brainer!
Everyone's focus was on Qianluo, but she seemed unaware. She glanced around and saw that the cultivators were looking at her eagerly, as if waiting for her to distribute the elixir.
Qian Luo coughed lightly a few times and said, "Now that the matter has been resolved, I will go back to practice."
A bunch of people looked like dogs staring at bones, their eyes shining with gold. It was really a bit scary.
Lan Xianghan also came back to her senses and said to Lan Qianhua, "Great Elder, what do you think?"
Lan Qianhua looked at the three golden elixirs in front of her, her mouth wide open with a smile: "Go ahead, go ahead, have a good rest! Let me know if you need anything!"
Wei Wuji and Jiang Baiji, standing nearby, stared at him with envy, each thinking: "Why are the Lan family so lucky? They actually have three Golden Cores!"
This is a sixth-grade elixir. There are several sixth-grade elixir makers in the Central Third District!
Especially Jiang Baiji. Her Jiang family prides itself on being a family of alchemy. There are endless alchemy geniuses, and they have half of the alchemists in the nine districts of Tianyan. But now, she has been slapped in the face by someone using elixirs!
"Fei Yao..."
Jiang Feiyao, like a transparent person, tilted her head slightly, her eyes dim, "Great Elder, what are your instructions?"
Jiang Baiji held the teacup, staring at the direction where the two girls were walking away, and chuckled: "You are about the same age, and young people have their own way of communicating."
The implication was that Jiang Feiyao should ask indirectly for key information.
"Sister Qianhua, my niece hasn't seen Xianghan for a long time. She misses her so much, so I'll let her stay for a few days. Is that okay?"
Lan Qianhua couldn't see through Jiang Baiji's evil intentions, but she couldn't solve it. Lan Xianghan did still have naive fantasies about Jiang Feiyao. In the battle for the district chief position, the enemy was in front. She hoped Xianghan could see the situation clearly.
"Okay, Lianqiao, go and arrange the room."
Jiang Feiyao had no doubt about this, nodded slightly, and followed Lian Qiao.
Wei Wuji was suddenly shocked. Why hadn't he thought of this? He turned around and glanced at his useless grandson behind him: "..."
Wei Chao pointed at himself, his eyes dizzy: "Ah? I don't know how to..."
He doesn't want to be bullied by three tigresses!
"Get lost!" Out of sight, out of mind! Of course, the baby wasn't a granddaughter! So annoying!
The three elders understood each other tacitly and raised their teacups: "Tea, tea..."
Wei Wuji: "That's all for today. We three families will continue to interact with each other!"
The hand holding the teacup trembled slightly. It was over. The Lan family had lost their spiritual plant business, but they were about to have three elders in the Jindan stage. This was a big deal even in District 4!
Because of the dispute over the district chief, the Wei family not only offended the Jiang family, but now they have offended the Lan family because of the Fahua Cuiyu.
Not only did I lose the wife, but I also lost my army!
Wei Wuji was thinking about how to give gifts to Qianluo and the Lan family to ease the atmosphere.
…
Jiang Baiji looked at their expressions. The worried Wei family members looked like eggplants hit by frost, wilting. In contrast, the Lan family members stood up straight and were overjoyed.
"I didn't expect Wen Siyu to take out four Gold Condensing Pills at once!"
"Damn, she doesn't come from a big family, does she?"
"Is there a Wen family? Never heard of it?"
"That doesn't necessarily mean it's the middle three districts, it could be the upper three districts! Or it could be a large hermit family!"
"That's right, I heard her say before that she lives with her mother-in-law!"
"Oh my god, our Lan family will have three Jindan stage elders in the future! Just thinking about it is exciting!"
The cultivators of the Lan family were extremely excited, and the three elders did not try to stop them. Their mouths were almost crooked with laughter. Such good news would naturally be spread as much as possible, as they loved to hear it!
The Lan sisters, in particular, stared at their precious Golden Core and hummed a cheerful tune: "Hey, sister, what do you say about us researching the spiritual plants that produce sixth-grade medicinal pills?"
"Uh... this is a big step. You should think about how to maintain production."
Jiang Baiji frowned, as if he had something important to say. "After much thought, I think the Lan family's spiritual plants are of better quality. We have a batch of spiritual plants that we urgently need, and no one else can provide them. Only the Lan family, with their wealth and wealth, can provide them."
Lan Baicao was surprised: "...Ah, what spiritual plant?" The Lan family's spiritual plant garden was in a state of desolation, with only the low-level herbs in the warehouse that could not be sold.
Sure enough, Jiang Baiji said seriously: "Spirit-boosting herbs, rejuvenating herbs..."
"This is definitely not to underestimate the Lan family, but our Jiang family has too many low-level alchemists. Every day, someone blows up the furnace in the alchemy room, especially when refining low-level pills. Novice alchemists simply cannot control the temperature and easily cause accidents."
"This has led to a high loss of our spiritual plants, and we are in urgent need of a large number of low-level spiritual plants!"
"Other suppliers can't provide so many. I think the Lan family is the only one in District 6 that can provide so many high-quality spiritual plants!"
This flattery made Lan Qianhua feel comfortable all over: "You're so polite, Baiji, you must be joking."
"Isn't it just a spiritual plant? We have a bunch of them in our warehouse. Just sign a contract with us based on the original price!"
Don’t refuse the business that comes to your door!
Jiang Baiji was also a straightforward person. The corners of his mouth turned up, and his eyes narrowed slightly. "The Lan family's spiritual plants are of such high quality. For the sake of long-term cooperation in the future, the Jiang family has decided to increase the price slightly."
Lan Qianhua sat up straight and raised her eyebrows: "Oh? Is this true?"
Wei Wuji gritted his teeth. Why was Jiang Baiji still playing dirty tricks? Why hadn't he thought of this trick?
"Ahem, we in the Wei family also have people refining pills, so we also need to buy spiritual plants. There are also many cultivators in the Wei family, and we urgently need spiritual gathering herbs to gather spiritual energy..."
Jiang Baiji sneered: "The Gathering Spirit Pill gathers spirits, why do you need the raw material, the Gathering Spirit Grass?"
Wei Wuji stiffened his neck and said, "Can't we just eat it? Who asked you to sell it so expensively?"
"whispering sound!"
"Hey you!"
Seeing that the two great elders were about to fight, Lan Qianhua and Lan Baicao looked at each other, and the resentment that had been accumulating for many years was released, and they just stood by and watched.
Things change, and good days are coming for the Lan family.
Thanks to Wen Siyu, they must be treating her like Guanyin Bodhisattva!
…
The air in the mountain behind the Lan family is fresh and the spiritual energy is rich. The ground is paved with jade, and there are pools with spiritual fish on both sides. The spiritual fish jump out of the water to welcome the guests.
The waterside pavilions and flower city have flying eaves and pointed corners. The three-story attic in front of you is exquisite and elegant, and is surrounded by flowers, making it even more gorgeous and magnificent.
"Qionghua Pavilion is used to entertain distinguished guests. There is an intermediate spirit gathering array here, which is most suitable for cultivation." When Lan Xianghan opened the door, a fresh fragrance wafted into her nose.
"The spiritual flowers and rare herbs around here are also beneficial for cultivation. The most important thing is that it is far away from the hustle and bustle, so no one will disturb us."
Qian Luo looked at the furniture, calligraphy and paintings, and porcelain in front of her, all of which were exquisite. She sighed in her heart that the Lan family was really rich. All the spirit stones they had saved over the years were used for investment.
Furniture, calligraphy and paintings, porcelain... they may seem ordinary, but they are actually imbued with spiritual energy and some of them have the qualifications to become low-level magical tools.
"Si Yu, this is your bedroom." Lan Xianghan turned on the light, and it instantly became bright. There was a Chinese-style bed engraved with intricate patterns, and table lamps and vases on both sides of the bedside.
"The vase is the switch for the defensive formation. If you concentrate on your cultivation, just turn the vase and the defensive formation will open. The Qionghua Pavilion will be enveloped by the formation, and a layer of blue light will be particularly conspicuous. If it's not an urgent matter, no one will come to disturb you."
Qianluo sat on the bed and nodded happily: "Thank you Xianghan, I understand!"
Finally I don’t have to sleep in a cave anymore!
Lan Xianghan saw the girl's happy face and smiled too, but she was worried and hesitated to speak.
Qian Luo knew what she wanted to ask and had already prepared an answer: "Don't worry about me. I can't reveal my identity, but the Ningjin Pill was not stolen. It was given to me by my mother-in-law. She is a master of alchemy and gave it to me for emergency use."
After all, Lan Xianghan did not grow up in the middle three districts. The redemption center in the upper three districts has everything, but the points are expensive, and many people dare not redeem them easily.
Qianluo became interested: "By the way, Xianghan, can you tell me what the upper third district is like?"
She opened her eyes, her face full of curiosity: "Is it the neon lights, tall buildings, electronic Buddhist chants, and the upside-down Guanyin statue?"
Lan Xianghan was a little surprised: "How do you know? The Upper Third District is indeed different from here. The architecture of the Middle Third District tends to be ancient, but the Upper Third District pursues high technology."
Qian Luo: "There are sects in the upper three districts, too. What about the Linglong Sect you're in?"
Lan Xianghan explained, "The Linglong Sect I belong to is one of the three major sects in District 3. There are many female cultivators in the sect, who study music and sonic attacks. My qualifications are only in the middle to lower ranks in the Linglong Sect."
She sighed, "Thanks to the help of True Lord Qingmin, we were able to save the Lan family from its decline."
Qian Luo: "Since this is the third district, the district chief shouldn't be in the early Nascent Soul stage. Why is there a Nascent Soul cultivator in the sect?"
Lan Xianghan frowned. "Actually, the relationships in the upper three districts are incredibly complex. We can't use the same thinking as the lower and middle three districts to understand them. There aren't that many Yuanying Zhenjuns, but there are definitely quite a few. When exploring, be sure to stay away from those aristocratic families. You might accidentally offend a Yuanying Zhenjun's disciple or great-grandson..."
"Just like I have offended Wei Chao, I have also implicated you." Lan Xianghan felt that she had let Qian Luo down. She had been practicing hard for more than 20 years, and it was rare for her to have friends, so she naturally cherished them very much.
Qian Luo: "How can you be blamed for this? It's because I didn't know the origin of the Fahua Jade that they were looking for me. I must have implicated the Lan family."
Her amber eyes shone like honey, "However, I didn't expect the Lan family to protect me like this, so I'm also offering my support, hoping that the Golden Core will help the Lan family stay safe in this district chief race."
She gave the Ningjindan to the Lan family because she saw that the Lan family was on the verge of collapse and that they were on the verge of collapse. This was especially true since she had escaped death many times and because of the things left by Lan Mingzhu, she had a natural liking for the Lan family.
The Lan family did not disappoint her. They actually contradicted the Wei family and gave benefits to the Wei family for her, a person who had no relationship with them.
Qian Luo felt that the middle three districts were indeed different from the lower three districts. The lower three districts were obviously evil, while the middle three districts were hidden evil. Moreover, the heads of the middle three districts were all Jindan stage cultivators, and they had close ties with the upper three districts.
Although she also wanted to capture the middle three districts, the current situation made it impossible.
The lower three districts are poor and backward and are not valued, but this has become an advantage. If she takes over the lower three districts, she will not be discovered by the people above. However, if she takes over the middle three districts, she will definitely provoke the upper three districts. Unless she is already a Divine Transformation cultivator, she will not be able to fight against them!
If the enemy doesn't move, I won't move. In the days ahead, be careful and cultivate diligently. When encountering problems, don't think that killing someone will change them, as you did in the lower three districts.
"Yeah, got it." Qianluo took out her phone, "Xianghan, let's add each other. I'll come to District 3 to play with you next time!"
Lan Xianghan sighed, "This phone won't work in the upper three districts. I'll give you a copy of my communication jade slip. This will have no obstacles, and you can contact me from anywhere."
Then, a flash of inspiration came to him, and a white jade slip appeared before his eyes. It was about the length of his index finger, small and exquisite.
Qianluo's eyes lit up, and she couldn't let go of the jade slip. Lan Xianghan taught her how to use her spiritual energy to carve the words on the jade slip. She had a corresponding jade slip, so she would naturally receive it.
“How amazing!”
Qian Luo suddenly felt that her phone was no longer useful. She opened it and found that Shui Qingyan and Huang Chen had both sent her messages.
Shui Qingyan: "Little sister, are you free to accompany me to visit the Treasure Pavilion?"
Huang Chen: "Little girl, I have a travel brochure here, with discounted packages for one-day, two-day, and three-day tours, including food and accommodation!"
Seeing these two messages, Qian Luo curled the corners of her lips. Lan Xianghan saw her smiling at her phone, and she inadvertently glanced at the message and her pupils shrank.
"Shui Qingyan...how do you know her?"
Qian Luo raised her head, puzzled. "This is the female cultivator I met when I first came here. She bargained for me at the Treasure Pavilion, and we added each other's contact information."
"What's wrong? Do you know each other?" That's right, there are many female cultivators in the Jiang, Lan and Shui families, so it's not surprising that they know each other. The Sister Jiang that Shui Qingyan mentioned should be Jiang Feiyao. Lan Xianghan knows Jiang Feiyao, so naturally she also knows Shui Qingyan.
Lan Xianghan nodded and recounted how the three of them met. Then she changed the subject: "However, we three don't recognize each other when we meet now. After all, our feelings have faded."
Sometimes friends leave quietly. No matter how good the time was before, they will eventually drift apart.
Lan Xianghan cared most about friendship because she was all alone in the Upper Three Districts. When she first entered the sect, she was often bullied by her fellow disciples.
After all, in District 3, she, a cultivator from District 6, was equivalent to a country bumpkin, while those cultivators from aristocratic families were all geniuses, with countless mutated spiritual roots such as wind, ice, and thunder, not to mention her small wood spiritual root.
Whenever she was bullied, she particularly missed her life before she was five years old. She would wake up and eat, and after eating, she would go play games with Jiang Feiyao and Shui Qingyan, catching butterflies, playing hide-and-seek, and planting orchids. These three little adults couldn't even walk steadily, but they still insisted on going to the ancestral hall to paint, and were chased and beaten by the elders...
Whenever she thought of this, Lan Xianghan felt sad: "It's okay, I have good friends again now."
After hearing her story, Qianluo didn't expect that Lan Xianghan, who was known as a favored girl at home, was actually being bullied in District 3.
She suddenly thought of the saying "Genius is just the threshold to see me". Maybe in the upper three districts, she Qianluo is nothing.
The upper three districts have gathered the single and double spiritual roots from the other six districts. The foundation-building stage is not worth mentioning, the Dan stage is countless, and the Nascent Soul stage is just right, not too many and not too few.
She may be gold, but there is too much gold in the Upper Three Districts for anyone to want it.
Who wouldn’t be depressed by this!
Qian Luo was a little autistic. Fortunately, she did not kill Wei Wuji at the Lan family, otherwise she would have died eight hundred times by now.
Just as she was thinking, Lian Qiao's voice came from outside the Qionghua Pavilion.
"Ms. Xianghan, Miss Siyu, and Miss Feiyao of the Jiang family request an audience!"
