Cultivation of Immortals Starts from the Roots

Chapter 91 Taoist Xumi (first update)
It was still dark outside the window.

There has never been a night in the city that never sleeps, but the monks belonging to the lineage of the city lord's mansion still enjoy a life that alternates between day and night.

And even in the daytime, the room is dry and cold, and even the aura he exhales is cool.

The bitter cold in the North Sea, even a cultivator would shiver from the cold, and only the comfort of the quilt.

It's a pity that some people have to get up even though they want to lie down.

This kind of person is either a casual cultivator who will die if he doesn't get up.

Or, busy people with power in their hands but no time to spare.

Ye Wood undoubtedly belongs to the latter, who made him the butler of the City Lord's Mansion.

He rubbed his painful temples, and forced himself up from the bed in a cotton robe.

Trembling and running to open the door, outside the door, two people have been howling ghostly, making it difficult for people to sleep well.

One is his confidant, with a short beard and no eyebrows, at the early stage of foundation establishment.

One is the shopkeeper of the Qitian Pavilion in the city, with a five-short figure and a late-stage Qi training.

"An accident happened in the city again?"

Ye Wood sat on the chair and yawned and asked, but he was definitely not angry at all.

A person like him would not be angry with such a thing, taking other people's money to do things for them, Ye Wood was favored by the city lord because of his dedication.

"Someone is selling talismans in Qitian Pavilion! The amount is huge!"

When the shopkeeper said this, his mouth was grinning to his cheeks, his face was full of disbelief, his meaning was very clear.

Now the city that never sleeps is surrounded by iron barrels, and only the city lord can allocate resources, so how did this batch of goods come in?
Before he finished speaking, Ye Wuudu's complexion changed abruptly, and he stood up in a jerk, almost touching the shopkeeper's nose.

"Go!" Ye Wood roared.

Originally, there were three people going out, but there were seven or eight more people when they arrived at Qitian Pavilion.

This is because Ye Wood stopped suddenly on the way and asked someone to find a batch of offerings for the foundation establishment period.

"People from Tianfu Pavilion?"

Arriving at Qitian Pavilion, Ye Wood's face darkened instantly when he saw it.

Clenching their teeth and giving an order, more than a dozen monks rushed forward and easily surrounded everyone in Tianfu Pavilion.

The leader was the dwarf-looking Tong Ying, and Xue Leng was not among them.

"Fellow Daoist Xue from Guige, where did you go?"

Ye Wood scanned around, finally set his gaze on Tong Ying, and asked loudly.

After all, among the crowd, the person in front of him is the only Foundation Establishment cultivator.

Tong Ying didn't seem to hear it, and looked at Ye Wood quietly.

"He seems to have gone to the City Lord's Mansion!"

A young boy boldly took a step forward, and replied tremblingly:
"According to the usual practice, so many goods have to be interviewed with the city lord!"

Ye Wood scolded himself for being confused, for forgetting this rule, but he was both surprised and afraid in his heart:
What's surprising is that the people from the Tianfu Pavilion dared to disturb the prices in the city openly, and even dared to go to the City Lord's Mansion!
This is not Tianfu Pavilion!This is the city that never sleeps!Is he a desperado with eyes open for money, or a muddle-headed idiot!

What I'm afraid of is that this guy has a lot of background, and I can't afford to offend him. Wouldn't Ye Wuhu lose face by doing so?
He galloped to the city lord's mansion at full speed, and greeted the guard monks. Before Ye Wudou could explain, he led a group of priests with their teeth and claws in front of the stunned servants and maidservants, and rushed straight to the banquet hall.

"Tom!"

The distraught Ye Wood suddenly pushed open the door of the hall, letting others wait outside, and was the first to rush in.

I saw the Fupao Taoist inside sitting and drinking tea.

Ye Wood seemed to have flames coming out of his nose instead of anger. He pointed straight at that person and walked over. Unexpectedly, but even more unexpectedly, he could only say one word:

"you you you you……"

Seeing so many people rushing in, the cultivator in the talisman robe was not panicked, and the teacup in his hand was as steady as if it had been cast in his hand.

Without shaking, he actually grinned at Ye Wood's strange expression of horror and anger.

This smile made the blood pupils in his eyes sparkle.

From Ye Wood's point of view, the flash of blood was like a sharp sword piercing through the air, awakening Ye Wood who was stunned, and cold rumors about this person emerged in his heart at the same time.

But in the next moment, he suddenly realized that he was the closest to him, and his masters were all outside the door. Just now, he was pointing at the man's arm like a gun, and suddenly he trembled like noodles on chopsticks.

"Come on!"

Ye Wood screamed, but backed away again and again, and the people on both sides of his body rushed past like a tide, and rushed towards that person—that Xue Leng.

Unexpectedly, wanting to see so many people rushing over, Xue Liang didn't resist, and put down the teacup sideways with a smile.

As soon as the bottom of the teacup touched the table, the foundation builder from the city that never sleeps arrived, but the commotion stopped in the blink of an eye.

With so many foundation builders, it would definitely not take too long to deal with an existence of the same level.

Not to mention a person who has no sense of resistance.

"So easy?"

Seeing Xue Leng being subdued so easily, Ye Wood felt a burst of remorse in his heart, and he couldn't do anything for a while.

He really didn't know what this guy was thinking, and he didn't want to offend him easily.

But this is the City Lord's Mansion, he can only do this!

Ye Wood lost his sense of proportion, but Xue Leng, whose hands were pinched, managed to raise his face and smiled at him:
"Is this how the city that never sleeps treats its benefactor?"

"benefactor?!!"

Ye Wood came back to his senses, the other party's indifferent expression completely angered him, this relaxed expression was simply the humiliation of the prey to the hunter.

The tone of the caught prey should be fearful or subdued. It is okay to pretend to be brave, but it should never be relaxed as if drinking tea, just like the bastard in front of you.

"You bastard! How dare you sell talismans privately in the city!"

"hey-hey."

Xue Leng didn't take it seriously, turned his head and still giggled: "Where is Senior Xu Mi?"

"Master City Lord?!"

Ye Wood only felt that his lungs were going to explode, he raised his head and smiled at the surrounding priests, and when he lowered his head, his face was already full of rage.

"What are you doing?"

There was a calm and prestige shout at the door, and an old man in brocade clothes was standing at the door in surprise.

Ye Wood, whose face was swollen and purple, raised his head and turned around to see that the city lord had come.

He wanted to go to sue, but found that he couldn't say a word.

One staggered and fell to the ground, only to feel the blood and burning flames flooding his entire chest, and his hands and feet were in great pain.

Especially the right hand with the index finger outstretched, the pain seemed to be knocked to the bone again to suck the marrow.

Ye Wood couldn't answer, and Xue Leng, who was full of respect, raised his neck to answer for him, still answering with a smile:
"Junior Xue Leng, pay homage to Senior Xu Mi."

"Are you Xue Leng?"

Taoist Xumi's expression changed, this person Ye Wood had already reported:

One of the Tianfu Gemini, with excellent cultivation and aptitude, is also the leader of Tianfu Pavilion's rush to help this time.

Seeing Xue Leng's hypocritical smile, the old and refined Taoist Xu Mi felt a sudden shock in his heart. Before he could think of anything to ask, Xue Leng had already spoken:
"Senior Xu Mi, I came from the north to slay demons.

In addition, you have an acquaintance, Xue Yu, ask me to greet you, hehe. "

"What did you say?!"

Hearing the word "Blood Feather", Taoist Xu Mi immediately changed his expression: "Do you have a token?"

Xue Leng, who smiled unpredictably, pouted his chin into his arms.

There is an elder's token of the Blood Desolate Sect.

With just one glance, Taoist Xu Mi changed his expression, looking at Xue Leng with impatient eagerness, he asked again:
"Nephew... why are you here?"

"I have batches of talismans that I want to sell."

As Xue Leng spoke, he tapped Ye Wood next to him with his chin.

Taoist Xu Mi couldn't see the way, and immediately asked Ye Wood angrily:
"Why don't you do business? How do you do things?"

Ye Wood took a breath, thinking that the master had forgotten about the True Spirit Sect, he shouted:
"Master, Fellow Daoist Gong of the True Spirit Sect has already taken over the talisman business in the city..."

"The old man is not dead yet, and it's not up to him, Gong Yushu, to make decisions in the city that never sleeps!"

Taoist Xu Mi interrupted Ye Wuodou's words neatly, and glanced over, Ye Wudou was immediately stunned.

"Nephew, are you all right?"

Taoist Xumi hurried over to help Xue Leng, turned his head and said:
"Come here, help him to the inner palace!"

Helping Xue Leng away, Taoist Xu Mi called Ye Wuud into the study alone, raised his hand and slapped him, and asked:
"Do you know why the old man beat you?"

After being slapped, Ye Wood didn't even dare to cover his face, he grinned his teeth and lowered his head to think for a while.

When he raised his head, there was already a look of shock and fear on his face, and he asked in a trembling voice:
"Could it be that he is a Jindan senior who pretends to be a pig and eats a tiger?"

Taoist Xu Mi rushed over again with an expression of being unable to suppress the fire, and nodded Ye Wood's head fiercely with his thick fingers:

"What are you thinking about all day long? This old man thinks that among the seven disciples under his seat, you are the smartest, so you will handle all the affairs in the city."

"Nephew Xue acts so confidently, can't you think about it more?"

Ye Wood shrank his neck like a child who made a mistake, and argued incoherently like a mosquito with a crying voice.

"You almost ruined something! Why are you yelling in front of so many people?!"

Taoist Xumi was still angry, and scolded with a face full of hatred:

"How many times has this old man told you that this is a special period, don't offend anyone on weekdays, your ears were eaten by dogs?

Do you think the old man is very comfortable being the city lord?Are you stupid? You! "

Seeing that Ye Wood was trembling like a leaf, Taoist Xu Mi waved his hands angrily, and ordered:

"You change into the clothes you wear to meet the guest, go call Yun'er, and accompany the distinguished guest together, you have to let her meet more people and learn more skills..."

After a long while, Ye Wudou didn't move as if he didn't hear it, Taoist Xumi let out a "huh":
"Why don't you go?"

"Master..."

Ye Wood raised his head, Taoist Xumi was surprised to find that this guy had tears in his eyes, and Ye Wood asked with trembling lips:

"The disciple offended that person, will something happen?"

"laugh!"

Taoist Xu Mi let out a laugh, and cursed angrily:
"That's one of the largest sects in the north! It's not a casual cultivator outside the city! Do you think people will have the same general knowledge as you?"

Taoist Xumi guessed right, Xue Leng, who had been scolded by Ye Wudou for a long time, did not show any signs of anger.

It's as if this has never happened, talking and laughing as if you just finished drinking tea with friends.

"In the city that never sleeps under the jurisdiction of Senior Xu Mi, even the family teacher is full of praise, saying that if the Dajin monks are like you, the world of cultivating immortals will become a paradise just around the corner."

Xue Leng smiled to the father and daughter of Daoist Xu Mi and Ye Wood who were sitting with him.

Taoist Xu Mi hurriedly motioned to the girl in palace attire, stood up and poured wine for Xue Leng who was sitting at the head, and said repeatedly:
"Senior Blood Feather's praise, I really don't dare to take it seriously, I'm ashamed."

Looking at the crystal clear fairy wine in front of him, Xue Leng said with a half-smile:
"If the situation reported by Senior Xu Mi is true, according to the will of the head of Tianfu, this pavilion will offer [-] pieces of talisman as aid."

"Hey, I can't help it, I can't help it. It's enough to help the old man. I just tried my best. I really deserve it."

As she said that, she turned her head and winked, the admiring girl in court toasted with the fearful Ye Wood and stood up.

"Nephew Xue, I wish you the best of luck in eradicating demons in the North Sea and becoming famous!" Taoist Xu Mi said with a toast.

Xue Leng smiled, raised his glass, and replied:

"Junior, I respectfully wish you, old man, to improve your cultivation and reach a higher level."

Even in normal times, Xue Leng would never touch wine much, not to mention that he has a task to do now, so after taking a sip of the toast, he put the glass upside down on the table.

Ignoring the slightly embarrassed expressions of the other three, he raised Erlang's legs, turned sideways and smiled at his master:

"Senior Xuya, let's talk about business."

"it is good!"

Taoist Xumi was stunned for a moment when he saw Xue Leng's actions, but he immediately understood what this person was thinking, and said yes repeatedly with his thumbs up.

"Is it convenient here?"

Xue Leng glanced at Ye Wood and the girl in palace costume.

"My own people, my own people!"

Taoist Xu Mi originally wanted to increase his daughter's knowledge, so he was not willing to drive her and his apprentice away, so he explained in detail what he knew.

The spearhead was directed at the Loose Cultivator Alliance, and also brought along the North Sea Monster Clan by the way.

Xue Leng nodded thoughtfully after listening to him:

"Senior Xu Mi, can you make a rubbing copy of the name of the evil cultivator outside the city for the younger generation, so that you can be careful in the future."

"Of course, Yun'er..."

Taoist Xu Mi was about to give orders when someone suddenly knocked on the closed door.

"What's the matter?!" Ye Wood asked loudly towards the door nervously.

"My lord, I have guests!" The priest who knocked on the door responded loudly.

"You bastard! Didn't you say you won't see any customers now!" Taoist Xumi frowned and scolded.

But the worship outside the door still refused to leave, and the words were quite anxious:
"My lord, all the sects rushing to help in the city have come, and there are still a lot of casual cultivators in the north.

They asked me to tell you that Gong Yushu from the True Spirit Sect is also here, can you see him? "

"what!"

With two exclamations, Taoist Xu Mi and Ye Wood stood up at the same time.

Taoist Xumi with kind eyebrows and kind eyes does not have the slightest demeanor of a Jindan real person.

He led a group of men and ran out around the gate, shouting as he ran:

"Where is Nephew Gong?"
