Changsheng Xiuxian: I can see through everything

Chapter 27: Strange Monks and Strange Daoists (Please Read)

"You received a big deal worth 800 spirit stones?"

The spiritual tea in Yu Qingsong's mouth suddenly sprayed out.

Fortunately, Chen Xuan was mentally prepared and avoided it calmly.

"Wait."

Yu Qingsong poured the remaining spiritual tea in the cup onto his hands, wiped his old face, and then shook his head vigorously, as if to make sure he was awake.

"Alright. Brother Xuan, I wasted a cup of spiritual tea. Did I hear correctly that you received a big deal and the other party is willing to pay you 800 spiritual stones?"

"Yes. Eight hundred spirit stones. You heard it right."

Chen Xuan briefly recounted how Su Zhengming asked him to exterminate the Fire Crystal Ants.

"If that's the case, eight hundred spirit stones are indeed not a lot."

Yu Qingsong was still a little confused.

"Xuan'er, tell me honestly, how confident are you?"

"Eighty percent."

In fact, after witnessing the extremely cold ice fog of the psychic green snake, he was 90% sure.

"Eighty percent, that's not low!"

Yu Qingsong looked Chen Xuan up and down.

After a while, he said, "If that's the case, why don't you go and earn some spirit stones? What do you want from me?"

"Aren't I worried about the Sima family?"

Chen Xuan smiled bitterly and said, "What if they send someone to ambush us halfway after we leave the market?"

As for whether the Su family would default on their debt, Chen Xuan was not particularly worried.

A cultivation family would publicly hire people to kill the Fire Crystal Ants, and kill people to silence them without paying spirit stones. Unless this was done perfectly, it would greatly damage the family's reputation and be detrimental to the family's development.

Yu Qingsong sneered: "In front of eight hundred spirit stones, the Sima family is nothing!"

"As long as you give me 30% of the spirit stones, I will guarantee that you will be fine!"

"Oh, tell me."

In fact, this is exactly why Chen Xuan went to Yu Qingsong to discuss.

After all, Yu Qingsong has been hanging around in Qingyun Market for more than fifty years. As a casual cultivator at the fifth level of Qi training, the fact that he can live safely to this age should not be underestimated.

"I have a close friend who is an outer sect deacon of the Jinyang Sect. He lives in Qingyun Market. As long as Brother Xuan is willing to contribute 30% of his spirit stones, I will ask him to come forward and sign a spirit contract in the name of the Jinyang Sect. He will accompany you and protect you. He can also support you in critical moments."

Chen Xuan's eyes lit up.

This Taoist Yu Qingsong is really unconventional. He actually has a good friend who is the sect's deacon.

On second thought, with Yu Qingsong's identity, how could he have the ability to curry favor with the deacon of Jinyang Sect?

Unless, he is a comrade who fought together in Tianxiang Pavilion.

"Is it reliable?"

"That's right! We often get together at Tianxiang Pavilion!"

He is indeed one of the four iron bonds in life, and our friendship is beyond doubt.

Yu Qingsong patted Chen Xuan on the shoulder and said, "Brother Xuan, don't worry. This isn't done in my personal capacity, but as part of the sect's mission. 10% goes to the sect, and he gets 20%."

After hearing this, Chen Xuan finally felt relieved.

When he got home, he told Jiang Yingxue that he had accepted a mission and had to go out.

"Will it take long?"

"About a month."

"Oh, be safe and go home early."

Jiang Yingxue was obedient and didn't ask any more questions.

"Don't worry, it's okay. This time, I'm going with the Jinyang Sect's deacon, so there's no problem with safety."

In the Qingyun Domain, the Jinyang Sect is the sky.

No matter whether it is a small or medium-sized sect, or a cultivation family, not to mention individual cultivators, no one dares to kill the disciples of Jinyang Sect.

"As for you, take Tiger Sister with you. Be careful and try not to go out. You must not leave the market!"

Chen Xuan warned with a serious face: "Do you remember what I told you? You can only rely on yourself. Don't trust anyone!"

"This is a great opportunity to practice hard. I'll come back and check on your progress!"

"Start with a physical exam!"

……

The deacon of Jinyang Sect is named Li Zongwei. He is about the same age as Yu Qingsong, over seventy years old, and seems to be at the eighth level of Qi training.

At such an age and realm, he is truly an eliminated figure in the Jinyang Sect. Relying on his family background, he finally managed to get a deacon position in a remote place like Qingyunfang City, but the benefits are pitifully small.

But in the eyes of the cultivation families and independent cultivators, he is a high and mighty sect steward with great power and influence who cannot be easily offended.

"You are Chen Xuan, such a young insect master?" Li Zongwei said with some surprise.

He had also heard about the ant plague that plagued the Su family in Feifeng Mountain.

When he heard that Yu Qingsong had found an insect tamer who could kill ants, he was skeptical.

After all, the Fire Crystal Ants are indeed difficult to deal with, and there are so many of them that even the Su family's ancestor, who is a foundation-building cultivator, finds it difficult to deal with them.

It's not that we are completely helpless. If we put in some effort and pay more attention to the foundation-building work, even if we can't completely eliminate the ant plague, we can reduce some of the losses.

It's just a matter of how much it costs.

In the past hundred years, the ancestor of the Su family rarely took action. If he lives a few more years, he can protect the Su family from wind and rain for a few more years.

Therefore, if you can ask for help from an extraordinary person and spend 800 spirit stones to eliminate the ant plague, it would be a good idea.

After Yu Qingsong's repeated persuasion and guarantee, Li Zongwei reluctantly accompanied Chen Xuan to Feifeng Mountain for the sake of his old friend.

It is definitely not for a mere 160 spirit stones.

……

On Feifeng Mountain, three thousand Fire Phoenix fruit trees tower into the clouds, standing proudly against the wind, and their dense and lush branches and leaves are full of fiery red spiritual fruits.

If you have good eyesight, you can clearly see that the fruit trees are covered with the same fiery red fire crystal ants, hiding their breath and disguising themselves as part of the fruit trees.

At this time, the Fire Phoenix Fruit is about to mature, and the Fire Crystal Ants are ready to go.

Su Zhengliang, the head of the Su family, sat in the reception room, flanked by Su Zhengming and several other family elders.

There were three people sitting in the guest seats: an old Taoist priest who was drunk, a fat monk with big ears, and a beautiful woman in palace dress.

"Is everyone here? Taoist Priest Li, Master Xu, and Fairy He, shall I take you to see it?"

Su Zhengliang said politely.

These are the three extraordinary people they invited, and it is said that they all have the skills to kill ants.

At this time, a young disciple hurried up and whispered a few words into Su Zhengliang's ear.

"Jin Yang Sect's Steward Li Zongwei is visiting? You go and report this to the ancestor, and the rest of you will follow me to greet him. Fellow Daoists, please be patient."

Su Zhengliang asked an elder in the meeting to report to the ancestor of the Su family, and took the remaining elders out to greet them.

"I haven't seen Patriarch Su for many years, and he's still as charming as ever!"

"Deacon Li's presence has brought glory to the place!"

The protagonists were Lee Chong Wei and Su Zhengming. The others bowed and watched the two perform with smiles on their faces.

After the greetings, Li Zongwei met everyone from the Su family and carried Chen Xuan out.

"This is my friend Chen Xuan. Don't be fooled by his young age, he's a skilled insect tamer!"

Hearing this, Su Zhengliang couldn't help but look at Chen Xuan a few more times.

"Master, this is Master Chen Xuan whom I mentioned to you."

Su Zhengming stepped forward to introduce at the right time.

"Good, good, he is indeed a young talent, very handsome!"

Su Zhengliang nodded approvingly and went back to the reception room with Li Zongwei.

"Let me introduce you to you, Taoist Priest Li, Master Xu, and Fairy He. This is Deacon Li from the Jinyang Sect."

Both sides stood up and saluted.

He Xiangzi bowed slightly and greeted everyone.

Everyone drank the spiritual tea and chatted for a while.

At this time, a cheerful voice came.

"Deacon Li, it's been years since we last met. What brings you here?"

Li Zongwei did not dare to be arrogant. He put down the teacup and quickly stood up.

"I have disturbed you, Elder Su. Zong Wei deserves death!"

The Su family ancestor waved his hand.

"Alas, when things get quiet, I want to move. It's rare to have so many friends come to visit my Su family."

The Su family gave enough face to Jin Yangzong and Li Zongwei.

"The ancestors of the Su family have come out. When the time comes, you must show your real ability to kill the ants. Otherwise, I can't speak for you." Li Zongwei lowered his voice and spoke softly to Chen Xuan.

"Don't worry. I won't embarrass the deacon."

Chen Xuan smiled.

"Eight hundred spirit stones, it's in my pocket, no problem!"

In the sea of consciousness, the tender voice of the psychic green snake was heard.

"Seventy percent of insect spirit essence, master, you are not allowed to refuse to pay!"
