I conquer the immortal with my strength.

Chapter 277 Quarrel
Among the three elders, Elder Tao, who was the host, sat in the middle with a sullen face.

Elder Qian and Xiao Hongyi sat on the left and right sides respectively, while Xia Daoming and others sat upright behind their respective Jindan elders.

At first, the three elders said nothing, but just closed their eyes as if sensing something.

It was not until a day later, when they were far away from the capital of the Great Xuan Nation, that the three elders finally relaxed and slowly opened their eyes.

"Brother Xiao, your four nephews are very powerful and promising. They lay low at first and waited until the very last moment before they took advantage of the situation to rob their fellow disciples from Daliang. What a good plan!" As soon as he opened his eyes, Elder Tao accused with a cold face.

"It's really a good plan! We got two Sanyuan Spiritual Fruits and six Fire Nettles without any effort. Several of our disciples died for these Sanyuan Spiritual Fruits and Fire Nettles!" Elder Qian said with a gloomy face.

Two three-element spiritual fruits and six fire nettles?

Xiao Hongyi's heart couldn't help but skip a beat.

The fire nettle is relatively good. Although it is also very precious, for people of Xiao Hongyi's level, as long as they pay some price, they can always find it.

However, the Sanyuan Spiritual Fruit is a spiritual fruit that can be taken directly to increase the success rate of forming a pill. It is very rare in the Great Xuan Realm. Even if you have spiritual stones, you have to rely on luck if you want to buy it.

Unexpectedly, Xia Daoming and his four companions actually got two from the disciples of Changhe Sect and Xingyue Sect.

However, these four people are still inexperienced and not smart enough!

How could they take advantage of the situation to rob two major sects at the same time?
In a one-on-one fight, I can still fight back.

How can I handle the situation when two families come to call me to task at the same time?

Besides, for such a big thing, why didn’t you inform me in advance so that I could have a plan in advance.

However, the Sanyuan Spirit Fruit is extraordinary. If used well, the Qingyuan Sect might soon have one or two more Jindan cultivators. Now that it's already in their pockets, there's no way they can return it.

But with both companies putting pressure on each other at the same time, this matter becomes tricky!
His mind was spinning rapidly, but Xiao Hongyi remained calm on the surface. He just frowned slightly and said, "Brother Tao, Brother Qian, you are too serious. Our three families are together in Daliang State, shouldering the prosperity and stability of Daliang State. We prosper together and suffer together.

Before entering the ancient ruins, I told my four nephews that if they met fellow disciples from the Changhe Sect and the Xingyue Sect, they should help them as much as possible. How could they take advantage of the situation to rob the nephews' spiritual medicine? Most likely there is some misunderstanding!"

"Master uncle is right. We are all good disciples who respect our teachers. Since Master uncle has said that he will help fellow disciples of Changhe Sect and Xingyue Sect, how dare we, the disciples, disobey him?
Not only did we not dare to disobey, but in order to fulfill our uncle's words, we even stepped forward regardless of the danger, forced back the people from the Yuan Family and the Disha Sect, and rescued the disciples of the two sects.

Everyone went to the ancient ruins to seek opportunities, not to do good deeds. Four disciples risked their lives to save three disciples from two sects, and they only asked for such a small reward. How could it be considered taking advantage of the situation?
If that were the case, the four disciples should have simply stayed away and let them be killed by the Yuan family and the Disha Sect, so as to avoid being accused of taking advantage of the situation!"

Seeing that Xiao Hongyi's words were flawless, Xia Daoming praised him secretly, but he had already made excuses out loud.

"What? In order to save their lives, you confronted the Yuan family and the Disha Sect?" Xiao Hongyi was shocked when he heard this, but he was greatly relieved in his heart.

"Yes, if you don't believe me, ask Senior Sister Yuwen!" Xia Daoming blurted out.

Xiao Hongyi looked at Yuwen Feng.

Yu Wenfeng was honest and nodded, "Yes, at that time, there were eight people from the Yuan family and the Disha Sect besieging us. If it weren't for the four Taoist friends from the Qingyuan Sect, we would have died at the hands of the Yuan family and the Disha Sect."

Upon hearing this, Elder Qian and Elder Tao's faces suddenly changed, and Xiao Hongyi immediately straightened his back.

"Brother Qian, Brother Tao, saving my life is like giving me a new life! What are two three-yuan spiritual fruits? Besides, the Yuan family is not easy to mess with. This time, my four nephews went up against the Yuan family in order to save your people!"

"Actually, they didn't do anything. They just scared away the people from the Yuan family and the Disha Sect. It was just a piece of cake. But they asked for so many elixirs at once. It's too much!" Shen Xulong blurted out with an unwilling look on his face.

"Hmph, without this little effort, you don't even have the qualifications to talk to me here, let alone talk about elixir!" Xiao Hongyi smiled coldly.

After that, he looked at Elder Qian and Elder Tao with a dagger-like gaze, and said in a cold voice: "Brother Qian, Brother Tao, our Qingyuan Sect has fallen into decline in recent years, but it doesn't mean that anyone can bully us. It's fine that you are not grateful, but you actually turned the tables on us. This really makes Xiao feel disheartened."

Elder Qian and Elder Tao looked at each other, hesitated and said, "That's not the case. After all, the four nephews only showed up, and the Three Yuan Spiritual Fruits and Fire Nettle Grass were obtained by our disciples with their lives. The price was very high. You took away two Three Yuan Spiritual Fruits and six Fire Nettle Grasses at once, which is really too much.

In this way, you return the Three Yuan Spiritual Fruit to us, and we will convert it into some Spiritual Stones to compensate you, along with the six Fire Nettle Grasses, as a reward for saving your life."

"Humph, if my four nephews hadn't shown up, not only would you not have gotten a single Sanyuan Spiritual Fruit, but you would have also left all of your people behind. Now you've only paid such a small price, and you've gotten both the people and the spiritual medicine, yet you're accusing us of taking advantage of the situation! If you insist on being so unreasonable, I'm too lazy to argue with you, let's go!"

After Xiao Hongyi finished speaking, he turned around and stood up, taking Xia Daoming and the other three with him to leave the Yinling Flying Boat!

"Stop!" Shen Xulong blurted out when he saw this.

Xiao Hongyi paused, his eyes piercing towards Shen Xulong, a powerful aura pressing towards him like a tidal wave, causing the restrictions in the cabin to emerge and flicker. Shen Xulong was sweating profusely, his legs were weak, and he almost knelt down.

Even though he was a leader among the cultivators who had completed the foundation building stage, at such a close distance, the aura of a cultivator in the late Jindan stage was simply beyond his ability to contend with.

"Brother Xiao, calm down!" Elder Tao's face changed several times when he saw this. Finally, he flicked his sleeves, broke the invisible momentum, and lowered his posture with a gloomy face.

"Hmph, today I will spare him this time for Brother Tao's sake. If he does it again, I will punish him severely!" After saying that, Xiao Hongyi waved at Xia Daoming and the other three, then stepped out of the Yinling flying boat.

"Uncle Master!" Shen Xulong was still frightened and looked at Elder Tao with indignation and dissatisfaction.

"You bastard, who is Xiao Hongyi? If he wants to leave, can you shout to stop him?" Elder Tao glared at Shen Xulong unhappily.

"So are we just going to let it go when they threatened us in the ancient ruins and forcibly took the Sanyuan Spiritual Fruit?" Shen Xulong's head shrank slightly, but he immediately raised it again and said unconvinced.

"Humph!"

Elder Tao snorted coldly, glanced at Yuwen Feng, then looked at Elder Qian and complained, "Brother Qian, your nephew Yuwen is really wrong! How can you say that if it weren't for the Qingyuan Sect's actions, they would have died at the hands of the Yuan family and the Disha Sect? With this statement, Old Man Xiao is completely right!"

"That's right. It should be said that even if the Qingyuan Sect doesn't come, we still have a chance to break out of the siege." Shen Xulong said.

"The situation was indeed critical. Our lamp oil had run out and we were all injured. There were eight enemies on the enemy side. If the people from Qingyuan Sect hadn't arrived, we..." Yuwen Feng said unconvinced.

"Okay, Yuwen Feng, you don't have to mention this matter again." Elder Qian waved his hand to stop Yuwen Feng.

Then Elder Qian looked at Elder Tao and said with a wry smile, "It's too late to say these things now. When we return, we will report this matter to our respective sect leaders, and they will decide whether to continue to pursue the matter."

"This is the only way now." Elder Tao nodded helplessly.

After leaving the Yinling flying boat, Xiao Hongyi slapped the spirit beast bag he carried with him.

A python covered with dark scales as big as a bowl and with a pair of wings appeared in the sky.

A spirit beast bag can usually only carry small spirit beasts.

The spirit beast bag that Xiao Hongyi carries is a high-level spirit beast bag, which is as valuable as a magic weapon and can be used to collect medium to large level four spirit beasts such as Yingmang.

Although it is called a spiritual beast, it is not actually a truly psychic animal. Instead, it is a demon beast that has been domesticated since childhood and recognizes its master and is relatively human-like.

"It seems that I have to get a high-level spirit beast bag someday. I will have a chance to get a few high-level young beasts in the future and tame them to recognize their masters."

Xia Daoming looked at the spirit beast bag hanging on Xiao Hongyi's belt, and thought of the powerful monsters in the restricted area of ​​the ancient ruins of Nie Yan. There were many young beasts among them. If he caught them, he would have a chance to tame them and make them recognize their masters. He couldn't help but become distracted.

While he was distracted, Xia Daoming followed Xiao Hongyi onto the spacious and flat back of Yingmang.

Ying Mang rolled up the clouds and flew towards the direction of Daliang State.

"You four guys, after entering the ancient ruins of Nieyan, do you think you have grown powerful? Even for such an important matter, you didn't even inform me in advance!" Standing on Yingmang's back, Xiao Hongyi pointed out the four people one by one.

Xiao Hongyi had accumulated power for a long time. After being scolded by him, Li Tinghui and the other two lowered their heads and dared not say a word. They just secretly glanced at Xia Daoming.

As a result, Xia Daoming acted as if nothing had happened, and said to Xiao Hongyi with a smile on his face: "The sect sent us to the Nirvana Ancient Ruins, in addition to looking for opportunities, isn't it to hone us and make our wings grow stronger? So that we can fly farther and higher in the future?
Besides, we saved the lives of those two guys, but they turned against us. We didn't expect that they were so mean and despicable. In fact, if it weren't for the instructions given by our uncle before we left, we wouldn't have bothered to save them just for those two Three Yuan Spiritual Fruits!"

"It's just two Sanyuan Spiritual Fruits, and you're getting more and more outrageous! Didn't you see those two old guys who even lost their dignity for those two Sanyuan Spiritual Fruits? If I hadn't personally escorted you today, a Jindan elder might not have been able to suppress those two old guys."

In fact, these four guys took two Sanyuan Spiritual Fruits and six Fire Nettle Grasses from Shen Xulong and the others. Xiao Hongyi was so happy that he didn't even have time to be angry.

The reason why he acted angry and scolded was simply to sound a warning to them so that they would be more prudent and careful in doing things in the future. However, Xia Daoming's words made Xiao Hongyi laugh and angry at the same time, and he almost couldn't help but hit Xia Daoming on the head.

"Of course. Everyone knows that among the Jindan cultivators of our Qingyuan Sect, apart from the Sect Master, you, Uncle Xiao, are the most powerful." Upon hearing this, Xia Daoming immediately flattered him.

"Stop flattering me. If you can't explain the whole thing to me, I'll show you how I'll deal with you when I get back!" Xiao Hongyi glared at him unhappily when he heard that.

"Hehe!" Xia Daoming smiled disapprovingly when he saw this, then winked at Li Tinghui and the other two.
