Longevity, starting from raising chickens

Chapter 226
"Second-rank alchemist, disappeared?"

Wang Ba was shocked when he heard this.

Immediately, he remembered the news he heard the last time when he was in the insect square city where the scattered cultivators gathered.

he asked hastily.

"When did this happen?"

"Didn't it say that the Baidan Conference will be held near Lingbi City recently?"

"On the second day after the Baidan Conference was held, these alchemists disappeared..."

With a solemn expression, Wen Yong expressed his guess:
"I suspect that it is likely to be the hands of the three majors."

Wang Ba thought for a while, then nodded, agreeing to Wen Yong's guess.

In fact, he thought so the first time he heard the news.

Baiyunping is located at the intersection of the three major sects, and it is almost impossible to rob these alchemists under the noses of the three major sects.

"But... why did they do this?"

Wang Ba couldn't help but wonder.

The three sects do have this ability, but they lack the reason to do so.

Wen Yong immediately shook his head and said:
"Did you forget? The time of the Zhenling Sect may be running out. The three sects have long been greedy for the many spiritual mines and spiritual veins in the Zhenling Palace. Once that person is gone, do you think they can let it go?" Opportunity?"

"You mean... they are accumulating strength, and they will fight for it after the Nascent Soul of Zhenlingzong emerges?"

Wang Ba quickly understood Wen Yong's meaning, and his expression became serious.

If the three sects really have such a plan, I am afraid that the future visible to the naked eye of the Yan Kingdom is doomed to be full of blood and rain.

"Mostly so."

"It can't be helped. If the three Jindan masters in Zhenling Palace hadn't fallen together, the seven Jindan masters could still barely maintain the title of the first sect in Yan Kingdom. The situation may not deteriorate, but Now there are only four Jindan real people, and when Zhang Zhenjun emerges, it is absolutely impossible to guard the large resources of Zhenling Palace."

"Yan country will be in chaos, we have to prepare early."

At the end of Wen Yong's words, he couldn't help but sigh.

For the past ten years, it has been an unprecedented loose time for casual cultivators in Baiyunping and even the entire Yan Kingdom.

Without the oppression of sect disciples, casual cultivators don't have to worry all day long.

You can practice freely, compete for various opportunities, and accumulate spirit stones...

But obviously, with the end of Dachu's counterattack against the kingdom of the gods and the return of a large number of sect monks, the days of most casual cultivators will inevitably return to the embarrassment they used to be.

The Shanli Singing Clothing Club, which has been developing at a high speed for a period of time, will inevitably lose part of its income even if it can learn to live in secret like a ghost market.

The original momentum of expansion will inevitably turn into prudent and conservative.

When Wang Ba heard Wen Yong's words, he couldn't help thinking secretly.

Out of careful consideration and his previous experience in the Eastern Sacred Sect and Tianmen Sect, the first thing that came to his mind was where he should go once Yan Kingdom was in chaos.

Either go south to Dachu, or go north to Song State, or go west, cross Jiantao's resident, and go in the direction of Sen State.

Or take the risk to go east, where Xu Guo and Qiao Guo are very close to Wei Guo, and naturally closer to Wanshen Kingdom.

But the option of going east, he gave up immediately.

Needless to say, going north, Song State is far less stable than Yan State because it is adjacent to Fu State in the 'Great Yan Dynasty', where demon cultivators are rampant.

The only thing left is to go west to Sen Country, or go south to Dachu.

Just as he was secretly weighing the pros and cons of these two places, Wen Yong said with a hint of envy in his tone:

"But fellow daoists, it's okay. With the skills and fame of fellow daoists, as long as the three major sects are not stupid, they won't do anything to you."

Wang Ba was taken aback for a moment.

I can't believe it:

"Fellow daoists are joking, right? I'm a casual cultivator, and the three sects want to handle me, isn't it easy?"

Wen Yong shook his head again and again:

"Fellow Daoist doesn't seem to be aware of his own influence... Do you know who are the people who come to us to buy the spirit chicken essence?"

Wang Ba frowned and thought for a while, then asked uncertainly, "Are they all wealthy?"

"That's true, but to be more precise, these people are either members of the three sects themselves, or they are outstanding people among casual cultivators."

Wen Yong's eyes were shining brightly, and he began to show his outstanding vision and cognition.

He analyzed:

"Fellow Daoist's spiritual chicken essence can increase the possibility of cultivators breaking through the bottleneck. Even if the effect is not so great for the cultivators who established the foundation, as long as the number increases, there will still be a slight improvement. Such a rare treasure, as long as the fellow daoist is there, Even if the energy is continuously refined, who would be willing to touch a hair of a fellow daoist?"

"If you really dare to do this, let alone casual cultivators disagree, even some cultivators within the three sects may not agree."

"After all, there are not just one or two monks trapped in the bottleneck."

"Even if Jindan Daoist is powerful, he can't completely ignore the thoughts of the people below."

"What's more... the three sects are not in harmony. If someone dares to kidnap fellow daoists forcibly, what will the other two sects think?"

"Do they really dare to let Fellow Daoist fall into the hands of a sect, allowing it to snatch the huge network hidden by Fellow Daoist?"

Wen Yong directly gave the conclusion:
"So, even if there is chaos in the country of Yan, fellow Taoists don't need to worry. Among the loose cultivators in the country of Yan, there are probably ones that are safer than you, and there may not even be one."

Wang Ba was taken aback when he heard this, because he didn't even realize that he had unknowingly gained a little status in the country of Yan.

No, according to Wen Yong's words, his status is not generally high.

Even the kind that is enough to affect the balance of the three sects.

Thinking about it, Wang Ba gradually came to his senses.

I found that it was really like what Wen Yong said, as long as I didn't explicitly oppose the three sects, with my fame and skills, the people of the three sects really could only provide me with good food and drink.

"However, there is one thing that Daoist friends should pay attention to."

"what?"

Wang Ba was a little curious, his status is so high, is there any problem?

But Wen Yong said meaningfully:

"The entire Yan Kingdom monks only know the name of the Taoist friend, but there are only a handful of people who have actually met the Taoist friend."

"I know fellow daoists are indifferent to fame and wealth, and don't like to show their faces."

"But I asked you a question, what if a sect knew the identity of fellow daoist and secretly captured fellow daoist?"

"It's like those second-rank alchemists from Baidan Society who were robbed."

"Master Shen Fu's reputation is still there, but fellow Taoists are afraid that they will be under the control of this sect, and it will be difficult to extricate themselves."

"Others will definitely not know, and the other two sects will naturally not stand up for fellow daoists."

"This is what I want to remind Fellow Daoists."

When Wang Ba heard the words, he suddenly felt excited.

Instantly understood what Wen Yong meant:
"Fellow Daoist, I understand."

"Hiding in the dark is better than standing under everyone's noses, so that all ghost tricks will naturally disappear."

"In the game with the three major sects, I was able to win the initiative and successfully become an outsider that no one wants to offend..."

"Thank you for your advice!"

Wang Ba solemnly bowed deeply to Wen Yong.

It's not that he couldn't think of this, it's just that the habit of keeping a low profile made him instinctively choose to hide his identity, his thinking was limited for a while, and he ignored another way to protect himself.

Wen Yong's words woke him up.

Times have changed, and the methods used to deal with crises in the past are indeed a bit outdated now.

And he is now far from being comparable in terms of cultivation base and background.

And what he was facing was not a method that directly touches life and death like sending a spiritual lottery.

High-profile, but not necessarily a bad thing.

Seeing Wang Ba salute, Wen Yong turned sideways and said repeatedly:
"Don't dare, I'm also a little selfish, I just want to keep Fellow Daoist."

With a thought in Wang Ba's mind, he understood Wen Yong's intention.

It was nothing more than hoping that he would stay, so that Shanli Singing Clothes Club could continue to operate.

Otherwise, without the spirit chicken essence as the finale, what is the difference between Shanli Singing Clothes Club and other singing clothes clubs and even ghost markets?
But this is also human nature, the reason why he has been able to cooperate with Wen Yong so far is not because cooperation is beneficial.

And Wen Yong never concealed this point, on the contrary, he seemed more magnanimous.

"I don't know how you plan to arrange it next? If necessary, why not use the next costume singing session as a stage where you will officially appear?"

Wen Yong thought for a while, and suggested again.

Wang Ba thought for a while, but couldn't think of a better way.

"Everything will be troublesome, Fellow Daoist."

Wang Ba raised his hand in salute and said sincerely.

"Fellow Daoist, you are being polite. I am honored to be able to contribute to the next level of Fellow Daoist. Once Fellow Daoist officially shows up, I have a hunch that even if I want to contribute to Fellow Daoist, I'm afraid I won't have the chance. "

Wen Yong sighed.

Wang Ba felt slightly regretful when he heard the words, knowing that what he said was true.

People from the Three Great Schools may be able to tolerate their own existence, but it is difficult for Wen Yong, a casual cultivator, to monopolize Wang Ba's output.

The likely result is that Wen Yong is forced out.

However, Wen Yong was also free and easy, he immediately clapped his hands, and greeted a few puppets to set up a table of wine and food.

While drinking, the two of them finalized the matter of the next clothing singing meeting one by one.

After all the discussions were over, it was already the second day.

Wang Ba left immediately.

But before leaving, Wen Yong suddenly thought of something, with a manly smile on his face, he just stuffed a small box for Wang Ba.

"This is……"

Wang Ba looked puzzled.

"Good thing, fellow daoist will know once he goes back to try it. This is a treasure specially offered by the court of the Great Chu royal family. I got two copies in total, one for myself and the other for fellow daoist."

Wen Yong specially emphasized.

Royal special offer?

Wang Ba was interested.

The Great Chu Dynasty is not the same as other dynasties, but the royal family Xiang's family dominates.

He was really curious about what was provided to the royal family.

Immediately suppressed his mood, left the formation, carefully restrained his breath, and flew towards the gathering place of casual cultivators.
