Cultivating Immortals in the Family: Rising from Beast Familiarity

Chapter 76 No respect for elders, honey flower tea [seeking first order]

Zhou Jiahui is dead!
But this news will not be known for the time being.

Zhou Zhengkang is very confident in himself, confident that no one can find any evidence.

What disappointed him was that he couldn't find the habitat of the strange slime-producing fish, even though he guessed that the place should be in the deep mountains near the place where Zhou Jiahui died.

In this way, after repeatedly cleaning the scene and the battlefield, he left the mountain range and headed straight for Hongyafang City.

Soon after, Zhou Zhengkang arrived in Hongyafang City with his disguised identity, and then in a teahouse box in Fangshi, he handed Zhou Jiahui's relics to Yu Deguang, the foundation-builder cultivator of Spirit Beast Villa who was waiting here.

"In short, that's how things are. Although I haven't found the habitat of that strange fish, I can be sure that it is in that mountain range. You can hire casual cultivators to find it slowly, or you can send someone to find it yourself. Well, with a little more time, we will definitely be able to find a place!"

In the private room, after Zhou Zhengkang finished talking about the harvest of his trip in one breath, he picked up the teapot on the tea table and poured himself a cup of spiritual tea in one gulp, then showed a look of enjoyment on his face.

I couldn't help murmuring in a low voice: "That's the taste! Since I came to this Yasukuni, I rarely taste this honey flower tea again!"

Hearing his words, Yu Deguang's eyes flashed strangely, and he said with a smile: "If my nephew likes it, I will give it to my nephew to enjoy the half bottle of tea pills left here."

"Then I won't be polite to you, Master Yu."

Zhou Zhengkang's eyes lit up, and he immediately took the jade bottle containing the tea pills on the table and began to play with it.

This tea ball called "Honey Flower Tea" is a kind of spiritual tea specially produced by the Zhou family of Sanjuemen in the past. It is made with tea leaves from the spiritual tea tree, pollen from several kinds of spiritual flowers, and honey from [Jasper Spirit Bee] made.

Not only does it have a unique taste, but it can also slightly improve mana and increase the strength of spiritual consciousness.

When he was still in Sanjuemen, Zhou Zhengkang also drank this spirit tea a lot.

But after arriving in Yasukuni, with the splitting of the Sanjue Sect, important resources such as [Jade Spirit Bee] were taken away by the Spirit Beast Villa.

There are only a few people in the Zhou family who still have a little stock of this spirit tea, and they are usually reluctant to take it out to drink.

However, a mere half bottle of "Honey Flower Tea" obviously couldn't satisfy Zhou Zhengkang's appetite.

After playing with the jade bottle for a while, he put it into the storage bag, then looked at Yu Deguang and said: "Now I have done what you asked me to do, and even killed Zhou Jiahui. This can already prove that I Is it your wish? Then when will you give me the Foundation Establishment Pill you guys mentioned?"

Hearing his words, Yu Deguang immediately picked up his teacup and took a sip of the tea, then smiled and said:

"Nephew, don't be in a hurry. As far as I know, the Foundation Establishment Pill that the Li family is preparing to refine will be released soon. With the resources invested by the Zhou family this time, at least two or three Foundation Establishment Pills can be distributed. , at that time, with your status in the Zhou family, can't you still get one?"

"If you can successfully build a foundation in the Zhou family, the Zhou family will definitely reward you with a lot of things. If you come to our Spirit Beast Villa at that time, we promise you that the Foundation Establishment Pill can also be exchanged for other equivalent resources for you. Isn't that the case? better?"

There seemed to be no problem with these words, but Zhou Zhengkang's face turned gloomy.

He looked at Yu Deguang with an ugly expression and said, "You don't need to make cakes for me. I just want to ask you, do you think that after I killed Zhou Jiahui, I would have nowhere to go and could only be at your mercy?" ?”

Yu Deguang was stunned when he heard what he said, he didn't expect him to reveal such a thing to his face.

For a while, Zhou Zhengkang asked him questions, and he didn't know how to answer.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Zhou Zhengkang's face became even more ugly.

"No, no, nephew, you misunderstood, Yu has no such intention!"

Paying attention to Zhou Zhengkang's increasingly ugly face, Yu Deguang finally came to his senses and waved his hands again and again to show that he misunderstood him.

Then he looked at Zhou Zhengkang with a sincere face and explained: "It's just that Yu Yu really didn't bring the Foundation Establishment Pill with him. I'm afraid he still needs to ask Master Xiao for instructions after he goes back to get it."

After finishing speaking, he stretched out his hand to hold Zhou Zhengkang's shoulder, and said earnestly: "In short, nephew, you must believe in our sincerity, and also believe in how much Master Xiao values ​​you and your own value. We will never give up on you. Such a great talent!"

Hearing his explanation and flattery, Zhou Zhengkang's complexion gradually became better.

He has always been proud and conceited, even among the original Three Absolute Sects, among the younger generation, he was one of those people with outstanding aptitude and talent.

So he is confident that no matter where he goes, he will shine and attract attention.

Yu Deguang's current flattery just hit his itch, so how can this not make him feel happy and satisfied.

The reason why he still has a face is just that he doesn't want Yu Deguang to think that he is easy to bully, and he is a little embarrassed.

At this time, he snorted coldly: "Hmph, I hope you will do what you say, otherwise don't blame me for turning my face and denying people!"

When Yu Deguang heard his words, he immediately understood his state of mind, Dang Li nodded repeatedly and said: "Yes, yes, nephew, you can go back to Zhou's house with peace of mind and just wait patiently for good news from Yu."

After speaking, he even reached out to pat the storage bag on his waist, took out a money bag containing a large number of spiritual coins, and put it directly in front of Zhou Zhengkang.

With a smile on his face, he said: "There are more than 800 spirit coins in it, even if it is the funds that Yu Mou paid to the nephew first, after Yu has disposed of Zhou Jiahui's relics, he will make up for the remaining spirit coins for the nephew. How does nephew feel?"

Hearing his words, Zhou Zhengkang's eyes flashed with joy, then he immediately grabbed the purse and weighed it, and soon his face calmed down completely and he nodded at him, "It's not too bad!"

Then he put the money bag into the storage bag, picked up the teapot and poured the remaining tea in one breath, then patted his sleeves and got up and said: "Then I'll go back first, you guys Remember to be quick and don't make me wait too long!"

Seeing this, Yu Deguang immediately stood up with a smile on his face and said, "It must be, nephew, go slowly."

After sending Zhou Zhengkang out of the box and closing the door.

Looking at the teapot that had been completely drunk, his face suddenly changed, and he swung his sleeves in disgust and snorted coldly: "Hmph, what, an idiot who eats inside and outside, also wants to use the Foundation Establishment Pill of our Spirit Beast Villa to establish foundations." ? Do you really think Uncle Xiao, a dignified cultivator from the Purple Mansion, would take a fancy to an idiot like you?"

It is not difficult to hear from his words that his previous conversations and promises with Zhou Zhengkang were nothing more than false assumptions.

In fact, from the bottom of his heart, he didn't take a fancy to Zhou Zhengkang, full of contempt and disdain.

In this way, after scolding Zhou Zhengkang secretly, he seemed to remember something again, and he couldn't help muttering to himself with a contemplative expression:

"It's that Zhou Zhengchun, although his aptitude is a bit poor, but if the news from the Zhou family is true, he is indeed worth wooing. If he can be used by me, then there will be another one available in my Spirit Beast Villa. Talented!"

……

Zhou Zhengkang naturally didn't know that he would be so unbearable in Yu Deguang's heart.

After he left the teahouse, he originally wanted to go back to the family directly.

But when passing by the Lingshou Zhai, looking at the three big characters "Spirited Beasts Zhai" on the banner from a distance, the words that Zhou Jiahui said at that time "You are far worse than Zhengchun" suddenly appeared in his mind.

Then his face suddenly turned cold, and he immediately turned and walked into the shop.

"Welcome, my honored guest..."

Inside the Spirit Beast Zhai, after hearing footsteps outside the door, Zhou Chun reflexively showed a smiling face and prepared to greet the visitors.

But when he saw the face of the visitor, his subsequent words stopped.

"So it's Brother Seven, my younger brother has met Brother Seven."

Zhou Chun paused, and soon bowed his hands to Zhou Zhengkang who came in, saying hello.

Not wanting to face his greeting, Zhou Zhengkang looked at him coldly and questioned: "You are also a member of the core clan of my Zhou family after all. Do you want to be greeted in such a humble way if you come in casually? Isn't that self-defeating? Identity, are you willing to degenerate?"

I'm afraid this guy is not a fool!
Zhou Chun looked at Zhou Zhengkang in surprise, never expecting that the other party would say such words.

In fact, it's not that Zhou Zhengkang doesn't understand the principle of doing business with harmony and making money, but whoever made him preconceived and unhappy with Zhou Chun, he just wants to come here to pick on Zhou Chun's faults!
Besides, at this moment, Zhou Jiahui's words "You are far worse than Zhengchun" are all in his mind.

Under such circumstances, after seeing Zhou Chun's "humble" appearance, it was inevitable that he would feel angry and feel worthless for himself.

Whether he would like to admit it or not, Zhou Jiahui's sentence "You are far worse than Zhengchun" really made him very concerned and upset.

Fortunately, not only Zhou Chun was in the store at this time, but Zhou Jiasheng, the shopkeeper, was also there.

At this moment, Zhou Chun was stunned by Zhou Zhengkang's words.

Zhou Jiasheng, who was worried about the conflict between the two in the store, hurried over and said, "They are all brothers of the same clan, Zhengkang, how can you say that about Zhengchun? If there is any misunderstanding, come talk to me in the backyard first!"

As he spoke, he patted Zhou Chun on the shoulder, signaling him to hold back and not quarrel with Zhou Zhengkang in the store.

Then he was going to pull Zhou Zhengkang, wanting to drag him to the backyard to reprimand him.

Unexpectedly, Zhou Zhengkang moved his body, avoiding his outstretched palm, and then said lightly: "No need, I have to hurry back to the family, and I don't have time to chat with you."

After finishing speaking, regardless of Zhou Jiasheng's ugly face, he just threw up his sleeves and turned to leave the shop.

If it was the past, even if Zhou Zhengkang didn't have much respect for these so-called elders in his heart, he wouldn't make it so obvious.

But now that he personally beheaded an elder like Zhou Jiahui, he felt superior to these so-called elders psychologically, and felt that he could completely control the life and death of these elders.

Secondly, he had already decided to leave the Zhou family, so naturally there was no need for him to be humble and humble to win the favor of these elders, and to consider staying in the Zhou family for a long time in the future.

Thirdly, it was Zhou Jiasheng's apparent defense of Zhou Chun just now, which made him very upset, and automatically labeled Zhou Jiasheng as a member of Zhou Jiahui's group, thinking that Zhou Jiasheng also valued Zhou Chun more than him.

All these things led to the current scene.

At this time, Zhou Jiasheng also had a gloomy and terrifying expression looking at the back of Zhou Zhengkang who turned and left without hesitation.

He almost gritted his teeth and roared in a low voice: "No respect for elders, slandering my brother, this old man must write a letter to the patriarch himself to explain this matter, sue him severely, and make him apologize to this old man and Zhengchun yourself! !"

After speaking, he saw that Zhou Chun hadn't spoken all the time, and thought that Zhou Chun was too angry to speak, so he hurriedly comforted Zhou Chun and said: "Zhengchun, don't take it to heart, that kid is not arrogant and arrogant. Now, maybe it is because he has heard too much praise from the patriarchs in the family, so he came here to find fault with jealousy, you must not be fooled by him!"

Zhou Chun shook his head immediately when he heard the words, and said in a calm tone: "Little nephew is fine, don't worry, Uncle Sixteen, I won't argue with him about these things."

Then he said in a puzzled tone: "But if he has a problem with my nephew, the reason you said, Uncle Sixteen, can be explained, but why doesn't he even give Uncle Sixteen your face? Isn't it obvious to yourself? Looking for trouble?"

Zhou Jiasheng's face changed when he heard this, and doubts appeared in his eyes.

What Zhou Chun said was right, in retrospect, he had nothing to offend Zhou Zhengkang.

When Zhou Zhengkang met him before, at least on the surface he was considered polite and thoughtful, and it was impossible for him to be as rude and presumptuous as he is today.

However, he soon seemed to have thought of something, his face suddenly turned cold, and he said annoyedly: "I think I know why, it must be that he knew that he was about to succeed in foundation establishment, so he showed his true colors Oh, what a wolf-faced and ambitious beast!"

When it came to the end, Zhou Jiasheng himself was so angry that he cursed first.

Zhou Zhengkang is about to succeed in building the foundation?

Zhou Chun was also slightly taken aback when he heard Zhou Jiasheng's words.

Immediately asked for details.

He only knew that Zhou Zhengkang had broken through to the twelfth floor of the Qi Refining Period for half a year, but he never thought that the other party would attack Foundation Establishment so soon.

Facing Zhou Chun's questioning, Zhou Jiasheng hesitated for a moment, then nodded and said: "Zhengchun, you are also a core member of the family, so I will not hide this matter from you, as long as you don't spread it to outsiders."

"Uncle Sixteen, don't worry, my nephew will definitely not spread a word."

Zhou Chun quickly made a promise.

So Zhou Jiasheng told about the collaboration between the Zhou family and the Li family to refine the Foundation Establishment Pill.

It turned out that the reason why the Zhou family used good deeds instead of spiritual coins as benefits to the clan members when they first established their foundation in Jiufengling was because the clan spiritual coins were collected for several important events at that time.

One of the things is to buy the elixir for refining the Foundation Establishment Pill, and to refine the Foundation Establishment Pill together with the Li family.

Now after several years of preparation, all kinds of elixir have been purchased, and the Li family has started alchemy.

In the Zhou family, apart from the patriarch and elders, only Zhou Jiasheng and other senior elders knew about this matter.

At this moment, after listening to Zhou Jiasheng's words, Zhou Chun's heart was also surging, and he couldn't help but have some thoughts about the unreleased Foundation Establishment Pill.

It's a pity that he also knew that even if the patriarch Zhou Daoyi tried his best to give him a Foundation Establishment Pill, his current level nine cultivation level in the Qi Refining Stage would be useless at all.

So this batch of Foundation Establishment Pills is destined to have no fate with him.

And after Zhou Jiasheng told this secret, he also gritted his teeth and said: "Zhou Zhengkang is the family's foundation seed, and he must have a share this time, and with his high-grade spiritual root qualifications, he can probably succeed in foundation establishment with just one. That's why he is so arrogant now!"

Is it really the case?
Zhou Chun felt something was wrong when he heard his words.

Even if Zhou Zhengkang succeeds in establishing the foundation in the future and becomes the elder of the Zhou family, he will still be a generation behind Zhou Jiasheng in terms of seniority. It stands to reason that we should give the elders some face when they meet.

After all, respecting elders is a family rule promulgated by Zhou Mingde, the elder of the family.

Zhou Zhengkang has no reason to not even do this superficial article, and give people the opportunity to criticize him for nothing.

What's more, hasn't he succeeded in building the foundation yet?

Isn't he afraid that because of today's incident, the patriarch Zhou Daoyi canceled his chance to take the Foundation Establishment Pill?
This kind of doubt was buried in Zhou Chun's heart, but he didn't tell Zhou Jiasheng clearly.

Because Zhou Jiasheng's current attitude is undoubtedly more beneficial to him.
