Chapter 229 Speculation and Suspicion



After Manager Qi left, Gu Yao looked worried: "This is bad. Changxianmen must be guessing that we came through other means. If they really track us down, they will easily find us and suspect our identities."

After all, their respective characteristics are very obvious. He is an alchemist and Chi Changye is a lightning sword practitioner, and the two of them are traveling together. Even if they change their names and put on new faces, Changxianmen may very likely target them and would rather let them go than let them go.

Chi Changye touched his head: "Don't worry, unless you don't plan to get the Soul Tempering Pill, they will always have doubts. Moreover, Qianhao Continent is much larger than Tianlin Continent, and it is not easy to find a few cultivators in the vast sea of ​​people." Chi

Changye was thinking that unless Gu Yao had been concealing his talent in alchemy, it would be exposed sooner or later.

"Don't forget that we are now in a cooperative relationship with Qianfeng Pavilion. For the sake of Qianfeng Pavilion and Baihe City, I believe that this Manager Qi will also hide our tracks for us."

Gu Yao nodded. That was true. After coming here, except for contacting Manager Qi, they were not disturbed by anyone. When they went out to play, although they did not deliberately cover their faces, no one recognized them. Obviously, those who knew the name of Master Yao Dan did not know that they came to Baihe City.

Tian Feirong said: "At worst, we can separate and hide in the mainland. No matter how powerful Changxianmen is, it can't turn the entire mainland upside down."

Gu Yao was not too worried. When he went out to play, he slightly modified his current appearance. Moreover, they went out in pairs, so their identities were not exposed. After playing around and getting over the excitement, the four of them put their main energy on cultivation again, and of course they no longer closed themselves off.

Gu Yao continued to study his alchemy, Chi Changye either practiced swordsmanship or pondered talismans, and Tian Feirong picked up his weapon skills and devoted himself to the cause of weapon refining with great enthusiasm.

The Tian family was originally good at weapon refining, and later he read a lot of related classics in Tianfu Academy, and also tried to refine magic weapons, but the level of the magic weapons was too low, not as good as the quality of the ones they obtained through various means, so he could not show his results.

Now that he found that he had made little progress in cultivation and he didn't need to open a shop, Tian Feirong put his energy into refining equipment. He couldn't just rely on Gu Yao, he also needed to have his own expertise, and the Qingyan strange fire in his body was also of great help in refining equipment, it would be a pity to give up.

The little fat man thought about it and realized that he didn't have the talent and spiritual roots to refine pills and equipment, so he tried talismans and formations, and found that he had some talent in formations. Although he couldn't compare with others, he had multiple skills and multiple means of survival and life-saving, so he also plunged into formations.

Gu Yao saw that everyone was busy and worked hard, and was very happy. In this way, everyone had a goal to strive for and a way to survive. Even if they were separated and walked alone in the future, they would have an extra way to make a living. Moreover, this formation could also improve their self-protection and combat capabilities.

Even when boating on the lake, everyone would hold a book in their hands, read a book from time to time, look up to appreciate the scenery, or exchange a few words with everyone. Compared with the previous days, such a comfortable life is really rare. But everyone knows in their hearts that such comfort is only temporary and will be short-lived, so they must seize the time to enrich themselves and improve themselves.

Qianzhi Pavilion or the City Lord's Mansion saw their actions, including the City Lord Liu. She was attracted by Gu Yao's alchemy skills, which might help her couple recover. In recent years, the City Lord's Mansion has recruited many alchemists and monks who practice medicine. Her couple's current condition is the result of many people's efforts.

She did not put all her hopes on Gu Yao, but did not want to miss any opportunity. When Manager Qi came with the restored Quling Pill recipe, City Lord Liu asked people to secretly pay attention to these four people.

Everyone who knows this couple knows that Qianfeng Pavilion belongs to the City Lord's Mansion, because City Lord Liu's Taoist spouse is called Zhang Qianfeng, and Qianfeng Pavilion is named after him. What outsiders don't know is that the real controller behind Qianfeng Pavilion is actually this monk Zhang Qianzhi. In the City Lord's Mansion, he also plays the role of a strategist who makes plans. Manager Qi

came to see Zhang Qianzhi again. Zhang Qianzhi in front of him looked no different from an ordinary person except that his face was a little pale, but one of his hands was not very agile, while the other hand seemed to be intact, not torn as outsiders said. In fact, as long as you observe carefully, you can still see the difference. That arm is just a puppet arm installed, grafted onto the broken arm. Although it can be used flexibly, it is not as good as your real arm.

"Qi Yi, you are here. Yue'er will pour tea for your Uncle Qi."

"Hey!" A woman with an elegant temperament came out from the inner room. It was Liu Yue, the young city lord of Baihe City. She treated Qi Yi, the manager, as an elder.

After pouring the tea, Liu Yue sat aside and listened to the two elders talking. If Liu Yue took over Baihe City in the future, she must know all these business matters, so as not to be led by the nose.

Qi Yi and Zhang Qianfeng started talking about Gu Yao and the other four people, which made Liu Yue curious about them. She had also heard about Gu Yao's alchemy skills. Compared with him, Li Qi from Changxianmen was nothing.

Zhang Qianfeng asked, "What do you think about them?"

Qi Tu said, "I have a very bold suspicion, and if I tell you, you may not agree."

Liu Yue smiled, "Uncle Qi, you haven't said anything yet, so why do you think we don't agree?"

Zhang Qianzhi also smiled and waited for him to speak. Qi Yi laughed and said, "I strongly suspect that this Quenling Pill was not made by Li Ji of Changxianmen. It is very likely related to this Master Yao, and they seem to have a conflict with Changxianmen. Ever since I sent the spirit stone to Mingkong Island and explained the treatment of the pill formula, their expressions have been a little strange, as if they are worried about something. After

that , When they went out to play, they covered their faces. If I hadn't met them, I might have overlooked it. Does this mean that they are worried about being traced back to them? Why are they worried?"

Zhang Qianfeng touched his chin and said, "That is to say, if the Quling Pill was not made by Li Qi, then our secret auction of the pill recipe would likely make Changxianmen suspect the real owner of the pill recipe? The strange thing is that our people could only find out that they first appeared in the sea outside Jiangqu City, but could not find any trace of them before that. The characteristics of the four people are too obvious, they should not be unknown people."

"If that's the case, then it makes sense. Why was Master Yao able to restore the recipe within five days? Unless he is the true owner of the Soul Tempering Pill, even though the Soul Tempering Pill was tampered with by the Changxian Sect, its essence has not changed, so it only took a few days to make it.

Liu Yue gasped: "How old is Master Yao? Does he have a master behind him?"

Qi Yi said: "Looking at his age, he is less than 40. Even the Taoist friend Chang Ye is no more than 50. He is indeed very young, like a disciple carefully cultivated by a large sect. But there are many things that don't make sense."

Zhang Qianfeng said thoughtfully: "Have you ever thought that they may not be cultivators from our Qianhao Continent? They came from other places through the teleportation array? That would explain why they appeared in the sea, but no one had been found before. As far as I know, Changxianmen controls several places."

Qi Yi objected subconsciously: "But those places are all barren, how is it possible for them to cultivate four golden elixirs like this? Even in our Qianhao Continent, they are no less capable than the elite disciples cultivated by the big sects."

Qi Yi had found out that even Di Feng from Tailuo Sect seemed to have not been able to get away with it at their hands, let alone Mu An from the Mu family who had just formed a golden elixir not long ago.

Zhang Qianfeng did not rule out this possibility in his heart: "Perhaps the four of them are one in a million. You know I have seen a lot of collections in recent years. Some places were split off during the ancient war, so those places may have bad spiritual conditions, but they may not be without the inheritance passed down from ancient times. The Changxian Sect has always acted overbearingly recently. It is hard to guarantee that the people below will have the idea of ​​getting rid of the control of the Changxian Sect. In order to achieve this goal, it is not impossible to gather all resources to cultivate a few cultivators."

"This..." Qi Yi was also a little shaken by the persuasion, "If this is really the case, then they came to our Baihe City for a purpose?"

Zhang Qianfeng smiled and said, "That may not be the case. Maybe it's a coincidence, or maybe they just come here for fun and relaxation. Cultivation also requires moderation. According to the situation found, they have never slackened their cultivation since they appeared in Jiangyun City. In my opinion, we should find an opportunity to talk to them, but before that, we should hide their whereabouts better."

Although they had made some moves before, they did not erase all the traces. If they were determined to find out, they might be found out.

Qi Yi nodded. It seemed that they really needed to have a good talk. If the other party really came with a purpose, it would be impossible for them to remain silent.

Liu Yue's eyes lit up: "Uncle Qi, take me with you next time you go to Mingkong Island."

Zhang Qianfeng smiled and said: "If Yue'er wants to see you, take her to see you and let her be your bodyguard or a manager." Qi Yi certainly wouldn't object, just take Liu Yue out to relax. Since the incident with Changxianmen, Liu Yue rarely walks around Baihe City with her original appearance, just because she doesn't want to cause more trouble for the Liu City Lord and his wife.

They all hate the persecution of Changxianmen, and Zhang Qianfeng will never sacrifice his daughter's life for his own body and push her into the fire pit. Even so, he can't get over the heart demon tribulation of pregnancy, and that's why Liu Yue didn't make her own decision.
