Chapter 279: Little Jade
Greystone City.
A large cultivation city on the edge of the Black Mist Jedi. It is also an area rich in cultivation resources within a radius of tens of thousands of miles. Most of the resources needed by cultivators of various races, such as the Black Evil Valley, are mainly transferred from here.
The heyday of the human race.
There are powerful masters of the fusion level in Huishi City, but now even the sects rarely station there. Most of the people in the city are cultivation families formed by caravans.
However, the number of creatures of other races is increasing day by day.
boom.
This day.
The An family caravan's flying boat landed smoothly on the platform on the left side of the city. As soon as the formation was put away, several blue-robed monks with obvious demonic auras came over. The monk with an eagle's beak, who was in the lead, said indifferently, "The docking fee is one hundred spirit stones."
An Zhi frowned, "Wasn't it 50 yuan before? Why did it increase so much?"
The Eagle-beaked monk snorted coldly, "Graystone City is controlled by my demon race, so the docking fee will naturally increase. Stop talking nonsense and pay it quickly, otherwise your flying boat magic weapon will be confiscated!"
An Yue and the members of the An family caravan behind An Zhi all showed anger.
However, the Eagle-beaked monk was not afraid at all. Instead, he said disdainfully: "Why, do you still want to fight? Add another thirty spirit stones, or the flying boat will stay."
See here.
An Zhi could only obediently pay 130 spirit stones. In the edge area of the Black Mist Jedi, the purchasing power of spirit stones is relatively strong. Although this amount of spirit stones is nothing to a cultivation family with a long history like the An family, paying hundreds of them for just one stop is obviously no different from robbery. It's just that the demon clan is powerful, and she dare not easily start a conflict before figuring out the situation.
Walk into the city gate.
Another sum of spirit stones must be paid.
It was not until they arrived at the An family's caravan camp in Graystone City that An Yue gritted her teeth and said angrily, "The demons are too overbearing to ask for so much money. Aren't they afraid that the caravan will leave?"
An Zhi shook her head, looked at Shen Ping and said, "In the past, Huishi City was jointly controlled by Shi Hu of the demon race and the Jing family of the human race. Now it seems that some problems have occurred. Moreover, I guess the demon race should only target our human race. If they really charge other races in this way, it will inevitably cause anger among many races. Shi Hu will not do this."
After saying.
She added, "Senior Shen, please rest at my Anjia residence for the time being. I will find out the situation in Qingcheng and then inform you. It won't be too late for you to make other plans then."
Shen Ping nodded.
He originally wanted to settle down in Greystone City first, then practice hard to improve his strength, but if the situation in Greystone City was chaotic, there would be no need to stay here.
soon.
An Zhi took Shen Ping to a secluded room in the backyard, which had an independent quiet room. After a brief chat, An Zhi left.
Shen Ping took a quick look around, set up some warning formations, then sat down cross-legged and began to take out the animal skin layers of the Talisman Beast Sutra to examine them. He was not in a hurry to enter the Gate of Strange Beasts until the situation stabilized.
As for practicing, there is no need to rush.
After all, knowing the existence of such special energy as strange stone, he certainly wanted to use the power of strange beast to condense the infant, rather than ordinary golden elixir magic power.
Several days passed in the blink of an eye.
An Zhi's voice sounded outside the backyard room.
Shen Ping opened his eyes.
His brows furrowed.
He sensed that in addition to An Zhi, there were two unfamiliar golden elixir auras. He stood up and walked out. As expected, he saw two younger-looking men and women beside An Zhi. They were both wearing black robes, and the edges of high-grade robes could be clearly seen inside. The ornaments they wore were extraordinary, at least they were top-grade magic weapons.
He took a quick glance, then subconsciously looked at the woman again.
Her face was not concealed, her facial features had the delicate look of a beautiful girl from a small family, and the corners of her eyes were filled with a pitiful look that made people feel pity for her. Shen Ping could see that this was not a pretense, but a natural weakness.
Although he had seen the stunningly beautiful Saint Yue Lian, if he had to choose, deep down he would still prefer this pitiful and delicate girl.
An Zhi spoke first: "Senior Shen, these two are the descendants of the Jing family."
The handsome male cultivator bowed and said, "Jing Yan greets Senior Shen."
soon.
The delicate woman beside him said softly, "Jing Huilan greets Senior Shen."
Shen Ping said calmly: "I don't deserve to be a senior. Both of you Taoists are in the late Jindan stage. So it should be Shen who is the senior."
Jing Huilan shook her head gently: "Senior, there is no need to be modest. The fact that I was able to find this place shows that you must have some extraordinary talents. To be honest, right now in Gray Stone City, my brother and I are wanted by the demon tribe Shihu."
Hearing this.
Shen Ping showed a little surprise on his face, but soon he frowned and looked at An Zhi, "Friend An, are you looking for trouble?"
There was a hint of dissatisfaction in his words.
I came to Greystone City mainly to practice in peace, but An Zhi turned out to bring trouble with her.
An Zhi explained with a wry smile: "Senior Shen, these two came to us personally."
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Jing Huilan said calmly, "Senior Shen, please don't misunderstand me. My brother and I don't know Friend An. The reason why I was able to find this place is that I am good at divination and calculated that this is a good omen, so I had the audacity to come to your door."
"The art of divination?"
Shen Ping's heart was slightly moved when he heard this.
This kind of skill is extremely rare among the hundred arts of cultivating immortals. He had met one in the Lanhai Immortal City of the Five Continents and Four Seas of the Jiuzhou Tower, but they did not have much communication. He did not expect to meet him again in this Huishi City.
Think of the underground palace of the Gate of Strange Beasts.
He had made up his mind, but on the surface he still said, "You two may have found the wrong person. How can I, a mere Jindan cultivator, help you?"
After saying that, he turned around and returned to the room.
Bang.
Unexpectedly, at this time, Jing Huilan and her brother Jing Yan knelt directly on the ground.
A soft voice sounded.
"Senior Shen."
"Since we are all human, please take us in. If you are willing, I am willing to serve you from now on."
An Zhi who was standing aside was extremely surprised. She knew that this pair of talented cultivators from the Jing family had cultivated to the late Golden Core stage in the past two hundred years. They had excellent spiritual roots and talents, and it was possible for them to break through to the Spirit Transformation stage and reach the Void Refining stage in the future.
I didn't expect that such geniuses with such extraordinary status would humiliate themselves like this.
Shen Ping was not moved at all. He closed the door of the wing and went into the quiet room on his own.
However, the brother and sister of the Jing family knelt for a long time and could not get up.
Ten full days passed.
They were still kneeling in front of the door.
An Zhi and An Yue couldn't bear to watch this anymore and stopped several times when they wanted to knock on the door. After all, they were not familiar with Shen Ping and didn't dare to plead for him on their own.
"You two should go back!"
"Shen's strength is limited, and I can't help you get revenge."
From the situation in Graystone City, Shen Ping guessed that the Jing family had encountered some kind of change, so it was not difficult to understand the behavior of these two people. Although he didn't know why they were so sure that he could help, even if he had the ability, he would not meddle in other people's affairs.
