Chapter 46 Situation, Chance Encounter

  Fuyue City, in a secret room of the Li family's residence.

  Li Jia's master and Fu Shi Shu sat opposite each other, neither of them speaking a word.

  After a long time, Fu Shu finally spoke up and said: "Li family master can think carefully, the conditions I gave are already very clear. If you want to be at ease, take out the offerings and cooperate with us to deal with the demon cultivators! Otherwise, the Luo Yun Sect cultivists will exterminate your entire family!"

  Although Master Shi's words were severe, his face was expressionless, indifferent and silent.

  The host of the Li family opposite was already anxious, and he had thought of all kinds of situations, but he didn't expect this monk to be so straightforward and directly point out the relationship between Luo Yunzong and the Li family, and then give a choice. Although it looks clumsy, it's actually very clever.

  Fair and square, one hit is enough.

  This method of Fu Xiu Shi made all the previous tricks and preparations useless, unable to drag on, and could only face directly.

  Looking at the faint cold sweat on Li's forehead, Fu Xiuzi's mouth curled up in a playful smile, and he said: "Of course, Master Li's cultivation is extraordinary, and his family's influence is considerable. Let's see if we can keep me here!"

  As soon as these words came out, Li's master's face turned white instantly.

  Masters of the same level, unless their divine powers differ greatly, a direct confrontation, even if it's two against one, would find it difficult to prevent the opponent from escaping. Not to mention that one's own divine power is no match for that of the paid master. Even if that guy could defeat the paid master, it would be impossible to keep him here. In less than half a month, the Luo Yun Sect masters will arrive in full force, instantly flattening the Li family and then supporting another immortal family.

  Taking a deep breath, the Li family head trembled and said: "As Master Fu said, the Li family was originally an affiliate of the Luo Yun Sect, and it still is. There's no need to doubt this! This time, the Li family will definitely cooperate with Master Fu to capture the demonic cultivator and provide a safe environment for the cultivators in Fuyue City!"

  "This is for the best, Li Shidi has indeed made a wise choice, and in this way, the Li family will still be the number one family in Fuyue City." Fu Xiuzi stood up with a smile, and as he was about to leave, he added another sentence, "Since the master of the Li family has made a decision, don't go back on your word, or it won't look good later! The Li family hasn't had an easy time for so many years..."

  Fu Xiu's figure disappeared at the door of the secret room, but Li Jia's face turned white in an instant, and his body swayed, almost falling to the ground.

  A moment later, Li Jia Zhu restored his previous kindness after walking out of the secret room. A moment later, Li Jia convened a family meeting, and all the elders of the foundation period attended. As for what the content of the meeting was, outsiders did not know.

  After that, however, Wang Chen and the others' treatment indeed greatly improved, each having a servant, and Li Jiaxiu's attitude also became much more polite.

  On the other side, in a mountain peak on the north of Fuyue City that was emitting a gray mist and an aura of death, a gaunt black-robed monk let out a strange, shrill laugh, holding a crystal-like mineral in his hand.

  "Not bad, this is the Voidstone, hand it over to the sect and I'll have the Golden Elixir technique, haha, Golden Elixir stage, I'll reach it soon!"

  The black-robed monk was smiling, a transmission token flew over, and as soon as he took it, the black-robed monk started chopping.

  A moment later, the monk's face suddenly turned ugly, and his eyes also emitted a green ghostly glow, which was eerie and abnormal. Suddenly, a blue light flashed by, and a one-meter-long stone block actually exploded under the gaze of the ghostly light. The exploding stones did not stop, but instead emitted a green flame, until the stones were burned to ashes.

  After a while, the black-robed monk's emotions stabilized, and with a pinch of his fingers, the black fog on the mountain actually slowly revealed a passage. After the passage appeared, several black-robed monks walked in.

  "I have an audience with the executive, Li's family has brought news that Luo Yunzong has sent out one foundation-building period cultivator and four qi-refining period cultivators!" As he spoke, one of the cultivators presented a jade slip.

  The black-robed monk took the jade slip and browsed through it. A moment later, the black-robed monk let out a loud roar, and his eyes emitted green ghostly light again.

  "Hum! Fine, fine, the Li family is indeed unreliable!"

  "Hehe! You guys go create some chaos these few days, you know what I mean! Hehe!"

  "Also, keep an eye on that young man you caught half a year ago, if he runs away again, you know the consequences!"

  ………….

  Behind the black-robed cultivators, an opening led to a mine tunnel inside. The sound of pickaxes striking stone came from within, and before long, ore was being transported out. However, the ones pushing the mining carts were indeed cultivators covered in blood. If one looked closely, these people had been dead for quite some time, with their wounds rotting and infested with maggots.

  …….

  Wuyue City, Wang Chen, who had just practiced the Lianyu Shen Shi technique, was drenched from head to toe, as if he had just emerged from water. He felt spiritually exhausted and his body ached abnormally. After resting for an hour, Wang Chen felt much better. With a sweep of his divine sense, he could now scan a distance of nearly 100 meters, which was about half a meter more than before, demonstrating the power of the Lianyu Shen Shi technique.

  However, the soul's painful effect made Wang Chen think that he would never cultivate this secret technique again. Nevertheless, Wang Chen also knew in his heart that this secret book was extraordinary and must be cultivated in the future!

  A moment later, the formation was withdrawn and Wang Chen walked out of the house door.

  A waiting attendant outside the door came forward and said, "Where is the immortal master going? I can show you the way!"

  Wang Chen was already familiar with the attendant at the door, but didn't want others to follow and wanted to refuse.

  Because Wang Chen knew that a monk was following him, whether it was to monitor or guide, but it was hard to say. However, after discovering that the attendant was an ordinary person without spiritual roots, Wang Chen nodded and followed the attendant to take a stroll on the street.

  It's getting late and the sky is already slightly dark, but there aren't many people on the streets. Wang Chen has a lot of interest in walking around, strolling around the street.

  Fuyue City is located between two mountain ranges, and it's very difficult for ordinary people to reach here, so this place is a famous fairyland within a hundred miles.

  Reading ten thousand volumes is not as good as traveling ten thousand miles. This sentence is indeed correct, Wang Chen thought that he had seen so many jade slips and was quite knowledgeable, but when observing the stalls of the cultivators, there were still several things he couldn't recognize, even though they were just some low-level cultivators' items.

  After strolling for a while, the noise from up ahead came over.

  "My elixir is fine, if you don't want to buy it then put it down!"

  "Little brat, you're asking for death, how dare you sell low-quality medicine to your brother!"

  ……..

  The sound of quarreling came, Wang Chen frowned and walked up, anyway, it was also a good time to come out and take a look. Wang Chen stood leisurely on the periphery of the crowd, looking at the situation inside.

  A frail young man argued his elixir in the crowd, while another was a robust big man, one practiced air two layers, and one practiced air eight layers, the struggle between them can be imagined.

  "Master Xian, you can imagine their situation! I used to work in the Li family's store, and I know a thing or two about many things in Fuyue City."

  The attendant saw Wang Chen stop and spoke cautiously.

  Wang Chen nodded and treated these things as a pastime.

  "This big Han's name is not remembered, only that there was a accidentally obtained hammer-shaped superior Dharma instrument, and because of the particularly stylish fight, he was called 'Tiger Brother' by the monks." As he said this, his attendant's eyes showed a hint of envy.

  He paused, and the attendant continued: "This young man's name is Zhou Yan. Previously, he had several grandfathers who relied on each other for survival. However, a year and a half ago, the mine in the north of Fuyue City was occupied by the demon cultivators. His grandfather, as a miner, unfortunately died! Since then, this young man has been practicing alone!"

  "It's said that this person has a rare water and fire dual spiritual root, which makes it easy to go crazy during cultivation, but apparently he has some talent in alchemy, so the past year or so hasn't been too bad!"

  The introduction of the attendant made Wang Chen's eyes light up slightly, and after glancing at the young man's stall, an idea suddenly rose in his heart. Immediately afterwards, Wang Chen pushed through the crowd and walked in.

  The monk in the crowd originally wanted to scold someone, but after seeing the aura emitted by Wang Chen, he shrank his head and didn't dare speak.

  "This Daoist friend, it's not good to bully a little kid like this!" Wang Chen said with a smile all over his face.

  "Mind your own business! It's better for you to leave early, don't invite disaster!" The big man said with a fierce tone, his voice full of arrogance and disdain. However, there was a hint of hesitation in his eyes, as if he had never seen such a cultivator in Fuyue City over the past few decades. Judging from the situation, this cultivator probably had an unprovokable background, so it's better not to provoke him unless absolutely necessary, but if provoked, the other party wouldn't have it easy either.

  "Calamity?" Wang Chen chuckled, "I see the vast and clear sky, where is the calamity? Nothing's wrong, let's hurry up and go! I still want to buy some things for my little brother!"

  "Who are you?" The big man glared at him fiercely, "If you have the ability, wait for me!" After finishing speaking, he turned around and left, but the two cultivators behind the big man stayed, looking at Wang Chen.

  "Wait a minute, after I help you solve the trouble, follow me, I have something to ask you!" Wang Chen mouthed slightly, quietly telling the young man called Zhou Yan. The young man was stunned for a moment, and then calmed down when he saw Wang Chen's smile.

  Wang Chen was interested in fiddling with the items on the young man's stall. Just as he had finished a cup of tea, the big man who had just left led a team of monks over!

  It seems that it is the Li family's law enforcement team in Fuyue City.

  Wang Chen smiled slightly when he saw this, and the playful color in his eyes became even more intense!

  "Li's family just arranged for a servant to be assigned to Luo Yunzong's monk, which is clearly a conciliatory move. But now that he's run into him himself, maybe this is an opportunity... The situation in Fuyue City is still unclear, and I'm not sure what's going on!"

  Some thoughts flashed through his mind, and Wang Chen also had an idea. He would follow this Shifu to Fuyue City after he arrived. To put it bluntly, it was to let others control life and death. As for whether the Li family was the same as the Demon Cult, what happened, and how the situation would develop, Wang Chen didn't know at all. He could only make some inferences from the small amount of information he knew.

  If Li's family really joins forces with the demonic cultivators and ambushes Luo Yunzong and his men, then Fu Shu should be able to escape. As for the others, including Wang Chen, it would all depend on their luck!
