Under the crown of the old golden osmanthus tree, the area of ​​Chu Tian’s garden expanded by about two times, with nearly a hundred new palaces and pavilions added.

Sitting on the terrace of a small building, Chu Tian held a cup of tea and suddenly smiled at Chu Yaya who was standing beside him: "Yaya, there is no need to look for Ling'er. She has a good father, who is really a smart man. You don't need to argue with Ling'er!"

After taking a sip of tea, Chu Tian sighed to the confused Chu Yaya, "What a smart man! I guess in the entire Hancui Cliff, not counting Dali Ge, including me, Ling'er's father is the smartest!"

Chu Tian happily picked up the teacup and took a sip. He said with a smile, "I'm so lucky to have met a truly smart person, a wise and intelligent person. Well, I can't waste him. I have to squeeze him more and can't let him sit idle!"

Chu Yaya looked at Chu Tian, ​​who was smiling, and asked him in surprise: "Uncle Feng is very smart, everyone knows it... Why didn't you count Brother Dali?"

After a moment of silence, Chu Tian pointed to his head and said, "If we're comparing who's smarter, there's no point in including him! Dali, do you have a brain? Maybe he had some brains before, but in the past three years, his head has been filled with fat and alcohol, right?"

From the main peak of Hancui Cliff in the back, Hu Dali's hearty laughter could be heard faintly: "Uncle Hu, come, let's finish this jar... Whoever vomits first today will be the son of a stepmother!"

A loud laugh could be heard faintly, and Hu Qianshan shouted heartily, "Okay, let's finish this one first! Haha!"

Listening to the two people's frivolous laughter and conversation, Chu Tian grinned: "However, it's good to live happily, so I envy Dali brother, he is the happiest person among us!"

"One is the smartest, the other is the happiest. Wow, we have a lot of talented people in Han Cui Ya!" Chu Tian smiled so hard that his eyes narrowed into a line, but soon, his smile slowly faded: "We have a lot of talented people in Han Cui Ya, haha, and there is still the dumbest one!"

Across the old golden osmanthus tree, facing the Li family manor surrounded by several jade peaks, is a fine house that was just built during the day.

Master Qiao and twenty or so newly recruited veteran alchemists were settled by Chu Tian in this retreat covering an area of ​​nearly a thousand acres.

Under the starry sky, a figure was surrounded by a faint mist, and with the help of the shadows cast by the rocks and trees, it quickly rushed towards the abode where Master Qi lived. Occasionally, the night wind blew, and the mist around the figure swayed slightly, revealing a mean and ungrateful goat face!

If Hu Dali were here, he would definitely see that this old man was the same Li family elder who brought a group of Li family members to stop him when he took Li Linger to pick up her clansmen three years ago!

It was this old fellow who insisted on presenting the Li family's ancestral Danshu and Hongyunlu to Master Qiao, and even forced Li Ling'er to worship Master Qiao as her master. If we were to name the person Li Ling'er hated the most, he would definitely be one of them!

Over the past few years, if Li Mofeng had not been the mediator, Li Linger would have used her status as the eldest sister of Han Cui Cliff to drive this elder and his close clansmen out of Han Cui Cliff!

Under the cover of night, the elder of the Li family named Li Youcai thought he had been careful enough and had escaped everyone's attention. However, he didn't know that among the two mountain protection formations that had just been added during the day, the confinement formation had an extremely powerful monitoring function.

From the sky to the ground, from the water to the land, the monitoring range of this confinement formation not only covers the 3,800-li area of ​​the Yuntai Mountains, but also extends to thousands of miles away. In other words, even the entire Wufeng City is actually within the monitoring range of this formation.

Moreover, the monitoring area of ​​this formation is as high as 3,000 miles in the sky and 100,000 feet deep in the ground. In this area, any living creature with soul fluctuations cannot avoid the scanning of this formation without blind spots.

Chu Tian took out a purple-black bronze mirror, and a purple light rose slowly. In the light, every move of Li Youcai was clearly visible.

"You really can't wait! Interesting, interesting!" Chu Tian smiled and patted Chu Yaya's head: "Yaya, don't stand there stupidly, you don't need to persuade Ling'er, move the stool, pour your own tea, and watch the show, watch the show!"

In the monastery, Master Qiao was sitting upright on a cloud bed, holding a volume of the Taiyi Qingling Sect's pharmacopoeia and reading it attentively.

When Li Youcai arrived at the door of his abode, Master Qiao slowly put down the pharmacopoeia and said softly, "Elder Li, it's late at night. You don't go to rest or do evening lessons, but come to see me. But what good is it for you to take care of me?"

With a cold snort, Master Qiao said in a low voice: "Back then, for three rhubarb pills, you sold the treasures left by the ancestors of the Li family, along with your niece's granddaughter, to me. You come again today, if you don't have any benefits, don't enter my door!"

Li Youcai laughed, and cautiously pushed open the gate of Master Qiao's courtyard. He went straight into the room, came in front of Master Qiao, and bowed respectfully to Master Qiao: "Master Qiao, what are you talking about? There are benefits for me to come to see you, benefits... Hehe!"

After a few flattering laughs, Li Youcai looked at Master Qiao and said with a smile, "Master Qiao's words and actions are still the same as before. It can be seen that Master Qiao must have come to Hancui Cliff for a purpose!"

"Do something? What do you think I can do?" Master Qiao put his hands in his sleeves and looked at Li Youcai coldly.

"Of course, kill him, destroy his soul, and seize his foundation!" Li Youcai was so excited that his whole body was shaking: "Master Qiao, how could you ignore such a great foundation? When I heard that you brought people to seek refuge in Hancui Cliff, I knew that you must have a plan in mind!"

Master Qiao looked at Li Youcai gloomily: "You seem to have great confidence in me. However, I have sworn a poisonous oath, and the True Spirit Fate Card is in Hu Xiaotian's hands. Do you still think that I have succeeded?"

Li Youcai licked his lips, smiled flatteringly and took two steps forward to Master Qiao: "It doesn't matter if it's a poisonous oath or a true spirit life tablet, as long as it's not Master Qiao who did it, and Hu Xiaotian died for other reasons, it won't hurt you at all. Master Qiao, isn't this your plan?"

Rubbing his hands vigorously, Li Youcai lowered his voice and said, "However, no matter how much success Master Qie has, if I can help you, I think the chances of success will be greater and the speed of success will be faster. Han Cuiya, this is a big piece of fat meat!"

After saying a few mysterious words, Li Youcai straightened his back slightly and looked at Master Qiao with a smile.

"You are cunning!" Master Qiao smiled faintly and asked softly, "How can you help me?"

Without waiting for Li Youcai to speak, Master Qiao said in a cold voice: "Let's not talk about the True Spirit Fate Plate. I warn you that I have sworn a poisonous oath to allow Hu Xiaotian to command me. Therefore, if you have any conspiracy or tricks against Hu Xiaotian, don't tell me. I won't listen to it!"

"If you miss a single word, I will have no choice but to kill you on the spot and use your head to ask for credit from Hu Xiaotian!"

After hearing what Master Qiao said, Li Youcai smiled proudly: "Listen carefully, I really won't say anything bad about him."
