Compared with Jiang Jingfeng's approach, Wu Yuan's performance was simply a demonstration of what a show-off operation is. He was clearly in an advantageous position, but despite having three third-grade alchemists, he still lost to Jiang Jingfeng.
The cultivators of Fengming City would not talk about Wu Yuan's show-off operation in public, but they talked about it a lot in private. They could laugh at this joke for thousands of years.
Wu Yuan gave everyone a living lesson: Don't get carried away until the last step, because even at the last moment, you may still capsize.
"The situation in Fengming City has changed so quickly. Previously, those forces all flocked to Young Master Wu's side, and they also wanted to step on Young Master Jiang. In the past few days, many people brought gifts to Young Master Jiang to apologize, but Young Master Jiang had no time to greet them. He was busy taking over the power of the young master who was eliminated."
"That's right. Didn't you see Young Master Jiang's people come out these days? They all hold their heads high. It's a pity that they were able to hold back before."
"In fact, those guys knew that Young Master Jiang was busy. They were clearly going for Master Xu. Look, for the same third-grade high-level pill, Master Shen could only produce two top-grade pills, but Master Xu produced two top-grade pills and seven high-grade pills. Who can underestimate the value of these seven extra high-grade pills?"
"Oh, Master Xu and Master Yao are really amazing. By the way, have you found out where this pair of nephews came from? It's impossible that they appeared out of nowhere. They really didn't have any reputation before?"
"You know what, it's like they just appeared out of nowhere. I guess only Master Jiang knows their origins. It is said that Master Jiang ran out to pick them up after receiving the letter. If he didn't know their level, why would he do that?" It was a
different time. At that time, many cultivators laughed at Jiang Jingfeng for being at the end of his rope.
"In fact, there are many cultivators in our spiritual world who are hidden and don't like to show off. For example, are the great masters who have passed the tribulation in our spiritual world really only the seniors we know?"
No one dared to guarantee it. The spiritual world is really too big. Many cultivators don't like to go out on weekdays, or they hide their identities. If Master Xu didn't reveal himself, who would know that he was a high-level third-grade alchemist with superb alchemy skills?
"Yes, without this background, how could they have snatched the Tianxin Furnace without being discovered by the alchemists who participated in the robbery?"
Everyone was very curious about the origins of Xu Yan and Yao Danshi. After much discussion, there was no result. The only clue was the Ding Tianxin Furnace. From this, it was concluded that the background of this pair of apprentices was unfathomable. The more they talked, the more they felt that such speculation was correct. Otherwise, how could they be indifferent to the solicitation and suppression of Master Shen Xing and his apprentice? They clearly had something to rely on and were not afraid.
The cultivators outside were speculating about the origins of Gu Yao and his apprentice, and Wu Yuan and Shen Xing were the same.
Wu Yuan had deployed a lot of people to find out their origins. Only when he knew both himself and the enemy could he start. However, what he could find out was only their experience after entering Fengzhou. They only knew how to eat, drink and have fun along the way. They also contacted Jiang Jingfeng on their own initiative.
This means that Jiang Jingfeng knew their origins very well, but he knew nothing about it. This feeling made Wu Yuan's anger rise continuously. He tortured several furnaces in his house and vented his anger a little.
Shen Xing naturally knew the results of Wu Yuan's investigation. In the past few days, everyone around him felt stressed, except for the strange monk Gu Yao whom they had met once.
Chen Xing tapped the table with his fingers and asked the monk sitting opposite him: "Senior Peng, did you see any problems with them that day?"
Originally, he was 50% sure that Master Yao was the person they were looking for, but the sudden exposure of Xu Yan's identity as a master of alchemy caught
him off guard, especially with the appearance of the Tianxin Furnace. He had the same speculation as the monks outside.
He did covet the Tianxin Furnace back then, although he did not have much advantage and was purely lucky, but the Dingdan Furnace suddenly disappeared under everyone's noses, and no one knew who did it. But because of such a powerful method, the alchemists who were vying for the Tianxin Furnace could only stop and investigate secretly.
After a period of fruitless investigation, and the fact that the Tianxin Furnace had not appeared, everyone had no choice but to give up.
Now that the Tianxin Furnace had appeared in Fengming City, he believed that the news had spread. With his power, even with Wu Yuan's, he could not control the spread of the news, so he was worried that if he did anything to the nephews, it would attract the people behind the scenes, especially the mysterious master who had taken the Tianxin Furnace away that year.
Compared with his desire for the Tianxin Furnace and his further progress in alchemy, his life was more precious. If he lost his life, those things would be nothing but castles in the air.
Monk Peng did not seem impatient and drank the spiritual tea slowly: "It's hard to say, is it possible that the man at that time accepted a successor?" "You said Xu Yan was the Xu back then..." Chen Xing's heart skipped a beat, "That's impossible! He blew himself up in front of many people at that time. The reason why the soul tablet has not been broken is that it is speculated that the thing may have protected his soul and drifted to some space. The most likely thing is that it found a new body to possess and rebuild."
As for why it took so many years, he vaguely heard the host mention a few words that self-detonation is extremely harmful to the soul. Even if it is protected by that thing, it is very likely that he has been sleeping for many years to repair his soul.
Moreover, there are countless continents attached to the spirit world. It is troublesome to search for them one by one. It is also very exhausting for cultivators to travel from the spirit world to those low-level continents. In addition, it is unknown when the soul will wake up, so it is better to wait in the spirit world. As long as the person is not dead, he will return to the spirit world one day.
The appearance of the Blood-Slaughtering Demon Monk several decades ago made the alchemists who knew about the events of the past immediately realize that it is very likely that the person has returned. After checking, they found that there is indeed an alchemist by his side. The Blood-Slaughtering Demon Monk takes the alchemist with him wherever he goes. Especially after checking that the alchemist came from the underworld, there is more reason to suspect that the alchemist named Gu Yao is the person who seized the body and started to cultivate again.
When Lingzhou sent people to Dongzhou, they didn't expect that the Blood-Slaughtering Demon Monk had led people into the Baibing Chi tribe's territory, and then disappeared. In the past few decades, no trace of them could be found no matter what. They could only send alchemists to various places to investigate, especially those alchemists with outstanding talents and strange origins.
Monk Peng said: "What if he didn't seize the body, but just trained an apprentice? The Blood-Slaughtering Demon Monk also knew the fate of that person, so it is impossible for him to have been looking for a spiritual object to reshape his body all these years? When competing for the Tianxin Furnace a thousand years ago, the Blood-Slaughtering Demon Monk definitely had the ability to take the Tianxin Furnace away from under the noses of a group of alchemists without anyone noticing.
" This is impossible! "Chen Xing called out subconsciously, and after realizing his impulse, he coughed lightly and said, "If you were in the other person's shoes, what choice would you make?"
Everyone thought so. The man would seize the thing and rebuild it, and would not rely on others to rebuild his body.
Who among them could trust another cultivator wholeheartedly while carrying such a precious treasure? Aren't they afraid that someone would refine their soul and take away the thing?
"What else?" asked Monk Peng. He came here just to take action and didn't ask about other things. He was not an alchemist, and the thing was of no use to him.
He believed in his own speculation and prepared for the worst. This meant that he would most likely have to face the Blood-Slaughtering Demon Monk, which made him a little hesitant. That guy was definitely not a soft-hearted Buddhist cultivator, especially when it came to that person. If he ran into him, there would be no way to survive.
Otherwise, how could he have killed that notorious murderer back then?
Shen Xing was cautious and chose not to take action, which was the most beneficial for him.
After saying this, Monk Peng got up and walked out, leaving Shen Xing alone to hesitate. After a while, he decided to contact Lingzhou and explain the situation here. If he really messed with that mysterious master, it would be useless even with Senior Peng around.
Not to mention how Shen Xing contacted Lingzhou, Jiang Jingfeng was busy except for Gu Yao and the other two.
The benefits for the successful candidates are naturally huge. Perhaps it is precisely such huge benefits that stimulate the candidates to compete unscrupulously.
The eliminated candidates have to hand over most of their industries to Jiang Jingfeng. As for the eliminated candidates, Jiang Jingfeng will naturally not show mercy to those who have tried to kill him. The eliminated candidates will either join his camp or retain a small part of the industry and not interfere, depending on their wishes. He will not kill them all.
After consideration, those people made a unanimous choice, which is to join Jiang Jingfeng's camp, because after Jiang Jingfeng takes office, the rewards they will get will be very rich, otherwise why would they fight each other to the death.
To be honest, compared to Wu Yuan's revengeful nature, Jiang Jingfeng was broad-minded enough. After becoming the winner, he could still treat them with a normal heart, so it was better to let go of the past grudges and do his best to help Jiang Jingfeng really get to that position.
Therefore, in a short period of time, Jiang Jingfeng's power doubled, and accordingly, Wu Yuan's mansion added several new batches of furniture, and no old ones were eliminated.
Although he was very busy, Jiang Jingfeng still didn't forget Xu Chen and Gu Yao. He was able to make such a great comeback thanks to them, so he assigned the best guest house from the main pavilion to Gu Yao and the other three. In fact, they knew that the main pavilion was given to Xu Chen through him, and the main pavilion also wanted to make friends with Laba, the master of amazing alchemy.
The protection of this guest house was also upgraded. There were special Mahayana monks sitting in the town. Once there was a situation, the Mahayana monks would rush in at any time.
On this day, Jiang Jingfeng hurried to the new guest house with a message.
"Senior Xu, Master Yao, Fellow Daoist Ye, something happened in Anzhou."
