Shangyuque

Chapter 65: The War to Destroy the Family Will Begin ( new monthly tickets required~)

“My fellow Daoists, the last two horses are racehorses raised by the vassal forces of the Heavenly Snake Sect, but their racehorses are a little different from Qingcong horses.

Black Reverend, the Immortal Armor Horse at the pinnacle of the Miscellaneous Demon Realm...press it firmly, press it firmly!"

Just as Zhong Ningyao was introducing, something unexpected happened.

The Immortal Armored Horse Black Master in the horse racing preparation area suddenly jumped up and bit a green horse beside him.

It was covered in snake scales and had fangs in its mouth, and the poor young horse it bit made it cry out.

"How shameless! It should be a fairy armor horse or a snake skin horse!" Cuiguo cursed angrily.

This girl has always been Zhou Yingxi's companion. She has lived a life of luxury and has been well protected since childhood. She has a simple feeling for the Red Lantern's rival, the Tianshe Sect.

The Tianshe Sect serves the Tianshe. Outsiders call it the Tianshe, but they themselves call it Tianxian.

The magical power and bloodline of the celestial being have influenced many creatures within the Heavenly Snake Sect. Take this immortal-armored horse for example, it was born with snake scales.

Within the Heavenly Snake Sect, in order to express respect for the so-called celestial immortals, the snake-scale horse is called the Immortal Armor Horse.

Now, the mad Heavenly Snake Sect's Immortal Armor Horse was biting the Red Light Green Horse, and the spectators in the stands were immediately angry.

Obviously, they were the slaves of the Red Lantern Police, the leeks of the Red Lantern Police, the leeks of the great monk, but they were just like Cuiguo and felt angry.

Hearing the cursing from the stands, Yulou was afraid that Zhong Ningyao could not control the situation, so he sent a message.

“Just introduce the second horse, don’t let them go on stage, just start after the introduction.

By the way, if Black Venerable does this, remember to punish it by making it start three breaths late."

Now Yulou has reached the seventh level of Qi Induction and possesses spiritual awareness, making it easy for him to transmit sound.

After hearing Yulou's voice transmission and guidance, Zhong Ningyao calmed herself down, and used her magical power to speak, suppressing the audience's curses.

"My fellow Taoists, there was a small accident. Well, we won't show it on the track. Let's directly introduce the second horse.

The Tyrannical King, a peak Immortal Armor Horse in the Miscellaneous Demon Realm, comes from the Heavenly Snake Sect.

The game is about to start. Pin down the Black Reverend and make him start three breaths late!"

The audience in the stands received feedback, felt fully involved, and immediately cheered.

Following Zhong Ningyao's command, the racehorses catapulted into action from the preparation area.

The Black Venerable, who had been so arrogant just now, was so angry that smoke came out of his head when he saw that all the other horses had left but he could not move.

While the horses in the field were chasing each other, Yulou in the stands was secretly whispering with Zhou Yingxi using her spiritual sense.

"Fellow Daoist Yingxi, I would like to invite you to taste the freshly slaughtered donkey meat at Zhiweifang tonight. Do you have time?"

Yulou took the lead in starting a private chat.

"Have you agreed to marry into the family?" Zhou Yingxi didn't move, but she was shocked in her heart.

"No, your Zhou family members came to the big goods shop to buy a lot of contracts. Does this mean that you think the war between Miaofeng Mountain and Gushen Sect will expand?"

Dahuofang is the name of the contract exchange, and this shop nominally deals in large-order wholesale.

But the wholesale price is only slightly lower than the market price, and it is a price that anyone who wholesales can easily lose money.

The actual business of this shop is to broker contract transactions for related goods. Wang has made a lot of money in the past few years by relying on this business.

However, in addition to earning spirit stones, the Dahuofang has another special function - the ducks know first when the river water warms in spring.

Dahuofang is not a business, it is engaged in contract negotiation and trading of goods needed for the war.

By observing the two parties to the transaction, the amount of capital invested, and historical profit and loss data, Yulou has mastered a lot of unknown information.

For example, which sects and families are secretly supporting Gushen Sect, which are trying to trip up Miaofeng Mountain, and so on.

The Zhou family had never participated in such contract transactions on a large scale. Yulou knew that Zhou Yingxi would play with it occasionally, but only for fun.

But yesterday, a steward of Zhou family came to Qingxifang and spent half a day shopping. The total value of the contracts he purchased exceeded 40,000 spirit stones.

And today, he came again and spent the whole morning shopping.

The Zhou family is a member of the Purple Mansion Immortal Clan, and they are members of the Purple Mansion Immortal Clan within the Red Lantern Regiment.

What does it mean when they suddenly behave like this?
How could Yulou not worry.

"How do I know Wang Yulou? Don't tell me you don't know how much I lost from you!"

Zhou Yingxi was feeling a little annoyed, as if Wang Yulou was secretly trying to trip up her family and do something to them.

"You are responsible for your own profits and losses. You didn't buy the contract from me, and you have made money many times.

Daoist friend, please don't be unreasonable."

"You say I'm being unreasonable?" Zhou Yingxi turned around and put pressure on Yu Lou.

"Oh, my spiritual awareness is not enough, let's watch the game."

Yulou rubbed his forehead and looked towards the center of the arena.

The group of iron-boned wolves caught a stupid horse and were already ripping it apart, which made the monks' blood boil.

Yulou’s preparations did not fail and this special event was a success.

It is conceivable that many of the new viewers will become loyal viewers after today and will come frequently in the future.

The only unhappy person was the owner of the disemboweled racehorse, as his horse was gone.

But it is understandable that he is greedy for the appearance fee and has to bear the corresponding risks.

Seeing that Wang Yulou, that bastard, was concentrating on watching the game, Zhou Yingxi thought about it and then gritted her teeth and spoke in a voice transmission.

“Wang Yulou, I received news that the Valley God Sect has applied to the Immortal Alliance to start a war to destroy the sect on Miaofeng Mountain.

Senior Xian Zhou is one of the most brilliant talents in our Red Lantern Group. You, the Wang Clan, should get out of that muddy water as soon as possible."

The clapping hands stopped, Wang Yulou turned his head and looked at Zhou Yingxi.

Zhou Yingxi has a pair of beautiful peach blossom eyes with chestnut brown pupils.

"Really?"

The horrified Yulou forgot to transmit his voice. He subconsciously opened his mouth and asked silently.

Zhou Yingxi glared at him and continued watching the game.

In the field, the Black Venerable who came later finally surpassed the Green Qilin who was ranked first. After all, his cultivation and realm were higher.

After surpassing the Blue Qilin, Black Venerable kicked the Blue Qilin towards the Iron-Bone Wolves that were sharing the horse meat.

The wolves were stunned for a moment, and before Qing Qilin could struggle, they all pounced on him.

Qing Qilin's wailing made everyone feel sad, but Yulou looked calm.

Find two immortal-armored horses at the peak of the Miscellaneous Demon Realm. Of course, you can also call them snake-scale horses. Finding them naturally means that we hope they will win.

If we don't let Black Reverend or Tyrannical King win, how can we hype up the popularity of Qingxifang horse racing?
-
After passing the news about Zhou Yingxi to the clan immediately, Yulou directly closed the Treasure Pavilion and the Big Goods Shop.

The war may escalate, so I'll close the shop temporarily to prevent others from buying out my stock. I'll wait for news from the clan before doing anything else!

Then, he returned to Zhiweifang, where Zhou Yingxi had been waiting for a long time.

"This is the first time I know that a cultivator at the seventh level of the Qi Induction Stage can be so arrogant. It's inappropriate to let Senior Qi Training wait for you like this, isn't it?"

The spiritual tea of Zhiweifang is of the highest grade nine. Zhou Yingxi only took a sip and then waited. She thought she was very well-mannered as she only said one sentence to Wang Yulou.

"I'm sorry, Fellow Daoist Yingxi, I didn't treat you well today, but you also know that I'm very busy with worldly affairs."

Wang Yulou smiled bitterly.

Zhou Yingxi didn't make things difficult for him. Although they were not destined to be Taoist companions, they could still get along well as friends.

"Wang's training of you two brothers is quite interesting. Not only did they arrange for you to study Taoism with Hongmei in Qingxifang, but they also let you work part-time as the shopkeeper of two stores. Don't you find it strange?"

"We can only practice for a few hours every day, so we have to make use of the rest of the time." Yulou didn't think there was anything strange about the clan's arrangement.

As Tie Qinhe successfully established his foundation while Wang Rongjiang failed, it was a good thing that he could contribute to the family through business management.

After the red light harvest, Miaofeng Mountain is distributing benefits. Now, a piece of foundation-building resources costs at least 80,000 spirit stones to buy.

During these seven years, Yulou had managed to gather half of the resources for foundation building.

Of course, it is impossible for all the earned spirit stones to be used to help the Wang family cultivators to break through the foundation-building stage, but for the Wang family whose heel was cut, the Jade Tower has helped the family to get back a lot of blood.

Zhou Yingxi felt a little embarrassed when she heard Yulou's words. She had been practicing in Zifu Cave since she was a child, and it only took her two years to complete the Qi Induction Stage.

"What do you want from me? The news I told you is true. Ning Clan of Gushen Sect has really gotten angry.

Previously, their Huishan Mansion was destroyed by Miaofeng Mountain, and now they want to take this opportunity to avenge the destruction of their clan.

In the Immortal Alliance, many great cultivators and real people do not want your Mangxiang Patriarch to achieve the Golden Elixir. Fighting Miaofeng Mountain can put pressure on the Red Light.

Therefore, the Valley God Sect's application for a war of extermination will most likely be approved. At that time, the foundation-building cultivators will be able to take action within a limited range, and Senior Wang Xianzhou will definitely be targeted."

Family is family, individuals are individuals. Zhou Yingxi really regarded Wang Yulou as a friend, which is why she revealed such crucial information.

In fact, Yulou, the clan leader and other members of the clan had already guessed about Zhou Yingxi's news.

Patriarch Mangxiang achieved the golden elixir, and Li Haiping opened the purple palace.

With the red light spreading like this, the Tianshe Sect, who are right next to their bed, will not sit idly by and watch.

But he didn't expect that this interference would start with Gu Shen Sect's plan to destroy Miaofeng Mountain's Taoist tradition.

Once the battle to destroy the sect begins, perhaps Zifu Daxiu can save his life, but when all his disciples are gone, the sect's lineage will disappear.

If Hong Dengzhao helps Miaofeng Mountain, the situation will escalate further and Patriarch Mangxiang's enlightenment may be delayed.

This is the general trend. Yulou thought about it and chose to do what he could.

".What do you mean by our Mangxiang Patriarch? Our family doesn't have such a great blessing. Don't talk nonsense."

He has done a lot and accomplished a lot in the past seven years, and he can accomplish more in the future.

“Fellow Daoist Yingxi, I plan to hold a special competition in the name of Baibao Pavilion—the Qingxifang Talisman Masters Competition.

Invite all the Qi training stage talisman making masters within a thousand miles radius to Qingxifang to compete to see who has the highest level of talisman making.

According to the ranking, give them some rewards.

Through this competition, we can further promote the reputation of Qingxifang, and at the same time help Baibao Pavilion to reach a higher level."

Zhou Yingxi looked at Yulou in shock.

No, buddy?

The danger of war is growing, so forget it if you are not in a hurry.

But you actually told me that your response was to hold some kind of Talisman Masters Competition.

Isn't this appropriate?

Yeah, this is indeed inappropriate.

"Wang Yulou, a fight is about to start, why don't you seem panicked?"

Yulou shook her head and spoke calmly.

“I am only at the seventh level of the Qi Induction Stage, Fellow Daoist Yingxi, what can I do when giant beasts are fighting?

It's nothing more than practicing well and trying to help the family walk more steadily. I have no right to think about anything else."

Zhou Yingxi was so blocked that she was speechless.

Yes, she was born into a rich family, but there wasn’t much Zhou could do.

What she could do was equally unremarkable, and she even had to be assigned a designated Taoist companion by her family.

She wanted to refuse, but when the storm came, she had no family to protect her and was powerless to resist.

So, she couldn't actually say no.

Yulou didn't care what the woman opposite was thinking and continued talking about the Talisman Masters Competition.

“In the competition, I plan to invite three referees, my master Hongmei Jushi, my uncle Wang Rongsheng, and you.

The referee's main job is to prevent cheating. Considering that there is only so much room for cheating, this job is not difficult.

As for the cost, three hundred spirit stones, what do you think, Daoist Yingxi?"

Zhou Yingxi wanted to say that three hundred spirit stones were a bit too few, but when he thought of Wang's pitiful appearance, he changed his words.

"Yes, this talisman is big."

“The Masters.”

"The Masters Tournament, um, the Masters Tournament, when do you plan to schedule it?"

Zhou Yingxi would be in seclusion for half a month at a time, so she had to arrange her time in advance.

“My idea is that we need to spread the news so that all the monks who should know about it within a thousand miles know about it before we can hold the ceremony.

So we set the date for a month later. A month should be enough time for the news to spread.”

Yulou had already made up his mind. The cash flow problem at the racetrack had taught him a lesson.

“My father is a garrison monk, but after knowing you over the years, I gradually developed a feeling.

Yulou, you are actually suitable to be a garrison cultivator. Except for your cultivation, you are very good in other aspects."

The girl with peach blossom eyes felt a little sad. Her father only knew how to make money and had no intention of running Qingxifang at all.

On the contrary, although Yulou is not in the right position, everything he does is very beneficial to the development of Qingxifang.

The war materials futures exchange named Dahuofang made Qingxifang famous in the red light zone.

The Qingxifang Horse Racing Event is getting better and better. Zhou Yingxi watched Yulou run the racecourse bit by bit. How could she not admire him?

“It seems that you did these things just to earn spirit stones, but objectively they promoted the development of Qingxifang.

I can even feel that the number of monks in Qingxifang this year is much more visible than in previous years, and I have you to thank for that.”

Hearing Zhou Yingxi praising him like that, Yulou waved his hand modestly.

“Don’t flatter me. I’m not as great as you think. I just took advantage of the benefits after Wolongfang disappeared.

Because of the war, Wolongfang has temporarily disappeared, so the number of customers at Qingxifang will naturally increase."

This falls into the category of the universality of connection.

On the other hand, Yulou could not fight for the Wang family like Wang Xianzhou, nor could she be the mainstay of the Wang family like Wang Xianmao.

But he also wanted to contribute to the Wang family, so naturally he had to seize the opportunity in time and do what he could.

Looking at Yulou who seemed to be quite domineering, Zhou Yingxi felt the gap between himself and him.

She is like a flower that grows under protection, with high cultivation, strong strength, and a bright future, but she lacks tempering and may even be afraid and confused by distant and irrelevant things.

But Yulou is not bad either. He grows in the cracks of scarce soil like a wild grass with vigorous vitality. He does not miss any drop of rain and tries hard to grasp all the opportunities he can.

"Wang Yulou..."

Yulou quickly swallowed the donkey meat in his mouth and asked.

"what happened?"

Zhou Yingxi's eyes flickered as she looked at the plate on the table.

"…Your donkey meat is indeed delicious."
