Chapter 22 Longyan Has Made Meritorious Service! Anye's Return

…

The envy in Jiang Zhencang's heart.

How do you say that? Oh yes, the opening is taking off.

In that case, the Holy Land may be more than twice as powerful as it is now, and he may be in the middle stage of Lingxu Realm now. If he is lucky, he may have suppressed the Yinsha Sect!

Unfortunately, everything is impossible!

In fact, it was precisely because he, Jiang Zhencang, had difficulty starting out because of his family's weakness and had to work hard on his own and felt very tired that he expected his apprentice Yingxuan to have a higher starting point.

In the spectator seats.

For a time, all the big guys had their own thoughts.

In the trial field, the trial process of the candidates is also constantly advancing.

When Wang Lizi and Wang Yingxuan used war to support war and developed like a snowball, the other candidates also found their own way to enter the development stage.

For example, Luwei showed extremely high talent in planting. After several failures, she finally cultivated cold-resistant plant seeds, as well as some seeds for defense and combat, and has already advanced them externally.

The future Empress Luoqiu went out alone, looking for bandit leaders to challenge each other, and then indoctrinated her with ideas.

Over time, with her "king's aura" that she was very good at, she overawed several bandit organizations and made them bow to her empress, and the team quickly spread and grew.

There's no way she can act like an emperor. She looks more like the reincarnation of the emperor than Emperor Longchang.

When the bandit leaders took refuge in her, they all felt that they would serve as ministers of the dragon in the future and follow the upright road of becoming a marquis and benefactors, and their hearts were filled with excitement.

Even if you can't even wrap it up, you still have your own unique style. His excellent herbalism and alchemy skills allowed him to quickly develop different potions such as hemostatic medicine and dragon blood powder that stimulates potential, and he created a [Dragon Blood Army] in a short time!

As for Wang Liyao, Gong Yangce and others, they are following an upright and comprehensive route, planting, developing, building, exploring, and fighting. Every aspect is not the fastest, but it is the most stable. With such comprehensive development, there is a chance of overturning in the future. Very low.

The slight difference is that Wang Liyao is more stable than Gong Yangce, has more grasp of details, and has a better sense of the overall situation.

Each of the candidates for the Holy Son and the Holy Woman has gradually resolved their first wave of crises. Although there is already some distinction between superiors and inferiors, there is still a long way to go, and it is still unclear who will have the last laugh.

…

And at the same time.

The land of the far west.

The snow-capped peaks are towering, and the evil spirit lingers, as if they have never changed.

Yin Sha Sect.

Not far from the temple, there is a slightly shorter but equally steep mountain called "Snow Spear Peak".

The top of Snow Spear Peak is covered with snow all year round and the wind is biting. Near the top of the mountain, there is a large Yin evil cave, which is filled with evil spirits all year round and mixes into a strong Yin and cold air.

With the evil cave as the core, a large house was built around it. The house was carefully made of Yin spirit wood, with carved beams and painted pillars, and was full of grandeur.

For ordinary practitioners, living in such a place is undoubtedly a kind of torture. After living there for a long time, evil will enter the body and cause extreme pain.

But for the disciples of the Yinsha Sect, such a house is a geomantic treasure and an excellent place for cultivation.

This was originally the house where Qi Hongzhao lived when he was the Holy Son in his early years. Later, when he became the sect leader, the courtyard was sealed up and has never been used by others.

Now that Wang Longyan has arrived, Qi Hongzhao has unblocked this place and sent people to carefully repair it as a living place for the future saint.

By the way, he also changed the name of this house to "Minghuang Ju", which shows his expectations for Wang Longyan, his apprentice.

now.

In Minghuang Juli, several disciples wearing Yinsha Sect uniforms were watering the spiritual plants in the garden. Judging from their focused expressions, extreme care and caution, they don't look like they are taking care of Lingzhi, but more like they are serving their ancestors.

Next to them, a woman in a lavender dress was watching their movements.

She had a gentle and charming face, which seemed weak and delicate, but her tone was extremely stern.

"Don't blame me for not reminding you. Uncle Ruobing brought these seeds from his hometown. There are not many of them. There is no room for mistakes in each one. I'd give them a 12-point rating." Come on, if a petal is missing, I will make you pay for it with your life!"

After the words fell, the disciples' faces turned pale and their movements suddenly became more cautious.

Because the evil spirit within the scope of Yin Sha Sect is too strong, it is more suitable for a small amount of Yin Sha attribute spiritual plants. In addition, there are not many varieties of spiritual plants that can be supported, so spiritual plants are much more precious here than in the outside world.

Not to mention those delicate varieties that are purchased from other places and have to live in the isolation barrier of the formation. They will die for you at every turn. This kind of kind that can be planted on the ground also needs careful care. If there is a slight mistake, , may wither.

Here, even the water used to water the spiritual plants is specially prepared spiritual spring water, and there are dedicated disciples who take turns taking care of the spiritual plants. They keep an eye on them carefully twelve hours a day, for fear of anything going wrong.

After finally serving Lingzhi, the disciples breathed a sigh of relief and quietly wiped the sweat from their foreheads.

Under the sun, the water-soaked spiritual plant exudes green, and strings of small blue-purple flowers bloom on the slender stems, which looks extremely eye-catching.

The woman in the lavender dress nodded with satisfaction: "Well done. Master Ruobing will be happy to see it."

Hearing this, those disciples finally felt relieved.

One of the slightly older disciples boldly asked: "Master Xinrui, did Miss Ruobing tell you how these flowers are reproduced? Seeds or bulbs? I think this blue and purple bell flower looks better than ordinary ones." The spiritual plants are more tolerant of evil spirits. If we can multiply more, maybe we can plant a sea of ​​flowers in the future. Miss Ruobing will definitely be happy to see it."

"It's a good thing to have ideas." The woman glanced at him with a calm expression, "But remember, don't do anything unnecessary unless Uncle Ruobing gives orders. If something goes wrong, you can't bear the risk of losing your life. Get up. Do you know?"

The disciple hesitated for a moment, then quickly lowered his head and responded: "Yes. Disciple understands."

While he was talking, the ban in the inner courtyard was suddenly opened, and a figure opened the door and walked out.

The figure was wearing a plain white dress. She had a cold temperament, as if she had a fairy spirit. There was a strong ice evil aura about her body, which could make people feel palpitations even from a long distance away.

Who is this figure if not Wang Longyan?

"Uncle Ruobing." The purple-skirted woman's eyes lit up. She quickly went up to him and bowed, saying respectfully, "You have worked hard in seclusion. I specially prepared the 'Bing Qinshuang Cake' for you, which contains the yin elixir. It can strengthen your cultivation, nourish your body, and soothe your spirit. I'll have someone bring it to you right now."

"Yes." Wang Longyan nodded towards her and said calmly, "You have worked hard to help me take care of the house these days."

This woman was sent to her by Qi Hongzhao, named "Wu Xinrui". It was said that she was a disciple of the acting sect leader Yin Fengtu, and was responsible for helping her take care of some daily chores.

Wang Longyan was actually very uncomfortable with it at first and refused because she really couldn't use a great prodigy as a maid. However, this was the practice of Yinsha Sect. If she returned the goods, the elders would only think it was Wu Xinrui. Being careless and not clever enough in serving her will make her unhappy and she will punish Wu Xinrui instead.

This is the logic of the Yinsha Sect. The upper and lower levels are very clearly divided, unlike the masters and disciples in Lingyun Holy Land who get along harmoniously.

Moreover, even if Wu Xinrui is gone, other direct disciples will be sent over. Because Wang Longyan has a distinguished status, she cannot be left without someone to serve her, and those female disciples who are not qualified enough are not even qualified to serve her.

Wang Longyan had no choice but to work hard to adapt. After getting along with each other for this period of time, we gradually became familiar with each other.

"It's not hard, it's not hard." Wu Xinrui's smile was warm and gentle, very sincere, "It is Xinrui's blessing to be able to serve Uncle Ruobing."

While he was talking, the disciples of the Yinsha Sect also came up to worship him, their attitude was so respectful that it was almost humble.

The hierarchy within the Yinsha Sect is very strict, and the hierarchy is clear. Anyone who shows any disrespect to those with a high status may endanger their lives. Therefore, Yinsha Sect disciples act extremely cautiously on weekdays.

Wang Longyan nodded towards them, chatted with Wu Xinrui for a few more words, then looked at the blue and purple bellflowers in the flower bed, and nodded with satisfaction: "It's well maintained. It seems that you have spent a lot of money." thought."

Wu Xinrui smiled and pulled back the hair that fell to her ears: "It's good if Uncle Bing is happy. You are the future saint of our Yinsha Sect. You have a noble status and it is our duty to serve you."

Wang Longyan nodded and said nothing more. After all, this blue and purple bellflower has nothing to do with her parents, Ning Wei, so naturally she won't really have feelings for it. The so-called hometown is just made up.

However, the girl in charge of her identity story was very meticulous and arranged all the details very delicately.

At this time, the maid had already brought the ice cream cake.

Wu Xinrui personally arranged tables and chairs for her and made tea for her so that she could enjoy the flowers and eat snacks.

After getting along with him for a period of time, she had become familiar with Wang Longyan's character. She knew that she was not very talkative but liked to be lively, so she poured her tea and casually told some interesting things she had heard.

Wang Longyan listened indifferently, nodding from time to time, echoing a few words, and sorting out the things she said in her mind to extract useful information.

During this period, although no one arranged anything for her, she was actually quite busy.

Her energy is mainly focused on two things.

The first is, of course, cultivation.

The main purpose of her coming to Yinsha Sect is to obtain the "Yinsha Book", so cultivation is naturally the top priority.

Ever since she became the direct disciple of Qi Hongzhao, the leader of the Yinsha Sect, Qi Hongzhao gave her the first half of the Yinsha Book of Skills. She has been studying this technique for a while and tried to practice it. She found that the compatibility of this technique is quite high and can be practiced together with the "Xuan Bing Phoenix True Technique".

There is even a separate chapter in the technique, which is dedicated to explaining different types of bloodlines, and how Xuanwu monks who originally practiced other techniques can be transformed and how to make them compatible with the practice.

Obviously, for a heritage of this level, her current situation should be quite common.

In addition, Qi Hongzhao even gave her another book of training experience. It is said that it is from one of the previous demon kings of the Yin Sha Sect, who also practices the power of Ice Evil, and she can use it as a reference.

It has to be said that the Yin Sha Sect is indeed a powerful force that has stood for seven or eight thousand years, and it was also a lineage of the True Demon Palace before the Yin Sha Sect was established. Just the practice experience left by these ancestors is already an extremely precious heritage and wealth.

Just this book of cultivation experience that Qi Hongzhao casually handed to her can make countless demonic monks fight for their heads.

After a few months, Wang Longyan has basically completed the transformation of the true energy. Although there is no obvious improvement in his cultivation, he can clearly feel that the profound energy is more condensed and his combat effectiveness is much stronger.

Among them, the one that has made the most progress is the use of the power of ice evil.

Although she had mastered the power of ice evil in the past, because she did not have high-end skills and secrets in the related field, she could only use it as the power of mysterious ice. Her use of evil energy was quite superficial, and the powerful corrosive effect of evil energy was in vain.

But now, she has mastered many high-end applications of ice evil, and has a much better understanding of evil spirits.

Although she has not accepted further inheritance, she feels that with her current strength, there should be no problem in defeating the late Zifu realm, and she can even try her hand at the magical power realm.

In addition, she also devoted some of her energy to paying attention to the changes in the Yinsha Sect, trying to figure out what the three big figures from the True Demon Palace wanted to do.

Although Shouzhe said that she should focus on her own safety and not worry about intelligence. But as the ancestor of the Wang family, she now occupies the unique status of Qi Hongzhao's direct disciple, so she really can't care less.

Unfortunately, she failed to get the result from Qi Hongzhao.

Qi Hongzhao did not deliberately guard against her, but he felt that her current cultivation level was too weak. The most important thing at the moment was cultivation. He was afraid that she would be distracted by trivial matters, so he specifically told his subordinates not to bother her with these things. So much so that even though she has been in Yinsha Sect for so long, she still rarely hears news about this.

Wang Longyan was afraid of arousing Qi Hongzhao's suspicion, so he had no choice but to act uninterested and start with other details.

If the Yinsha Sect wants to do something, there will inevitably be changes in personnel and materials, and these cannot be hidden. Especially the various disciples below, who all have to rely on these jobs to earn money and practice, are the most well-informed.

It's also extremely easy to get information out of them. As long as they ask themselves, they dare not not answer.

She has gained a lot during this period of time, and the news has been sent back one after another, but she doesn't know if Shouzhe has received it.

"By the way~ Master Mingya has a young disciple who is handsome and elegant. His name is 'Hang Ruofeng'. Master, do you still remember him?" Wu Xinrui rolled up her sleeves and cut the ice Qinshuang cake into suitable pieces. The small piece at the entrance said casually, "Some time ago, he was sent to the Western Jin Dynasty by his master, but he was abducted by a snow fox of the Northern Wilderness who transformed into a human on the way."

"..."

Wang Longyan was greatly shocked and couldn't help but hesitate for a moment.

"and after?"

"Later, Uncle Mingya found out about this and was so angry that he smashed the table and said that he had brought shame on the Yinsha Sect. Of course, out of anger, he finally went to Beihuang to fish him out. Come out, and then punish him not to go down the mountain again for a hundred years, so he can practice hard on the mountain." Wu Xinrui was also speechless, "If you ask me, that kid probably asked for it. After all, he usually likes to provoke the sect. The female disciple is even more unscrupulous when she goes out. Maybe she looked at the charming human form of the Snow Fox in the Northern Wilderness, and got distracted by it, and ended up kicking her on the iron plate."

Wang Longyan pondered for a moment and asked: "What about his mission to the Western Jin Dynasty..."

"Of course it was replaced by someone else." Wu Xinrui looked unconcerned and added hot tea to Wang Longyan. "There are many people in the sect, but it's just an errand. Bring them back and refine them. Just turn it into a zombie and send it back, it’s not that difficult.”

"If the demand for corpse puppets in the Western Jin Dynasty wasn't a bit high this time, and tens of thousands of slaves were sent at once, there would be no need for the direct disciples to come forward, and the people below would be responsible."

Wu Xinrui's tone was understatement, but Wang Longyan's heart skipped a beat.

Tens of thousands of corpses!

What is the Western Jin Dynasty planning to do? ! Is it possible...

She didn't even bother to despise the system of the Western Jin Dynasty. She only felt that the ominous premonition in her heart was getting heavier and heavier, and a certain guess was about to come out.

She wanted to ask about Nan Qin's situation, but when she opened her mouth, she remembered Shouzhe's explanation, so she had to stop and reluctantly turned around: "Is there enough material to refine so many corpse puppets at once?"

"Hey~ Master is also worried~" Wu Xinrui didn't notice anything wrong at all, "The materials in the sect's inventory have been almost used when refining corpse puppets for Nan Qin. Recently, the materials on the Demon Dynasty market have The price has increased, and if you rush to collect it, you will have to spend more money. I have heard Master secretly complain several times."

"So urgent? Can't you practice again later?" Wang Longyan's brows furrowed more and more.

"It seems impossible." Wu Xinrui sighed, "I don't know what the specific situation is. I just heard from Master that it seems to be related to the True Demon Palace, and we can't help it."

Wang Longyan couldn't help but recall that meeting.

After the three demon kings from the True Demon Palace arrived, Qi Hongzhao sealed the temple. Not only did she not know what happened inside, but even Yin Fengtu couldn't enter.

After that, the Yin Snake Demon Queen and the Blood Boy Demon Lord left quickly, but the iron tower-like Ancient Elephant Demon Lord stayed. Now he lives on a separate hilltop next to the temple, not far from her Ming Feng. It's not too far away.

After that, everyone in the Yinsha Sect became inexplicably busy.

Except for the outer disciples in the courtyard who were specifically responsible for cultivating spiritual plants, the other disciples in the sect seemed to be very busy, and I could often see their hurried backs. But unfortunately, nothing special happened in the Yinsha Sect at all. The disciples were busy stocking up on supplies.

Coupled with the large-scale refining of corpse puppets in the Western Jin and Southern Qin...

Everything points to a possibility. They are preparing for something.

And that matter is most likely to be a national war!

But why did the True Demon Palace let the Western Jin and Southern Qin start a national war? Targeting Daqian, what benefits can it bring to them?

Wang Longyan only felt his scalp numb, and for a while he couldn't figure out the cause and effect relationship at all. But one thing was very clear to her, that is, she had to convey the news back to the Wang family as soon as possible!

Today's Wang family is a family connected to the fate of Daqian Kingdom, and there is no room for any mistakes.

…

same time period.

Daqian, Longzuo County, Changningwei, Xinping Town Port.

The huge port is bustling with traffic and bustling. Countless ships enter the sea every day, either heading north to Qingluowei, or southward to Baidaowei, or going up the Anjiang River to transport goods to various inland areas. county.

With the development of time, Wang's Xinping Port has gradually become the largest port in Longzuo County, with a huge daily throughput. At the same time, it also brought huge wealth to the Wang family.

now.

Under the high cantilever of the refiner, huge cargo boxes one after another are being hung by ropes, and are being moved bit by bit in a fixed direction to the large cargo ship.

On the pier, muscular men were shouting loudly to move goods, load and unload goods in an orderly manner. From a distance, they looked like a busy ant colony.

While he was busy, a young man holding a long sword came over with a small group of people.

These people all wore standard soft armor and held standard long swords in their hands. The clothes they wore were obviously distributed uniformly. The emblems of the Wang family were embroidered on their skirts and cuffs. They were obviously Wang's patrol team.

"Captain Zhuge."

Seeing this group of people, one of the muscular men immediately came out to greet them and saluted the leading young man with a respectful and familiar attitude.

Obviously, the two parties are old acquaintances.

"Have you noticed anyone acting suspiciously recently?" The young man returned the greeting, pulled the person aside, and pretended to chat, but actually asked with his spiritual sense, "Have you noticed anything special about the people you paid attention to before?" What’s going on?”

"Those people have been quite peaceful recently. Only one person left the dock and went to the outside world. He hasn't come back yet." The strong man also answered with spiritual consciousness, "Don't worry, I'm here to keep an eye on you." Nothing can go wrong. If there is any news, I will send someone to inform you immediately."

The young man nodded: "Okay. Then you will continue to work hard and keep watching."

"Where are you talking?" The strong man said with a smile on his face, "It's an honor for us to be able to serve the Wang family. What's the point of not having to work hard? Captain Zhuge, just leave the task to us."

After chatting for a while, the young man got some trivial information from the strong man, and then left with the people to patrol another place.

The young man's name is "Zhuge Liangcai" and he is the patrol captain of this dock. He also works part-time in some grassroots intelligence work.

It's not complicated, just connect with some people like the strong man, and then bring the news back, and the rest of the matter will be out of his hands.

Like many people here, his ancestors also fled and migrated from other places.

He still remembered that his grandfather once told him that their ancestors Zhuge Wenyao, Zhuge Tiedan and Zhuge Cuihua came to Changningwei more than a hundred years ago. At that time, the Wang family was only an eighth-grade family. , there are still many ordinary people living in Ping'an Town, and even Xin'an Town has not yet been developed.

At that time, our ancestors lost their homes due to floods and had to wander around with their wives and children. It was the Wang family who kindly accepted them as refugees, built a refugee camp for them to settle temporarily, and gave them the opportunity to work. It allowed them to go through the most difficult time, and gradually became a human being from having nothing, and later even bought a house.

After more than a hundred years, their family has deeply rooted in this land. The family has also grown from four people to hundreds of branches and branches. People of the same clan have spread almost throughout Xinkaisi Town. .

It's a pity that their family is just ordinary people with weak bloodline, and they have never been able to produce any good disciples for cultivation.

Occasionally, there is an ancestor whose talent is not high-grade, but is pretty good among common people. He signs a training contract with the Wang family and obtains a spiritual enlightenment pill. He is successfully promoted to a low-grade D grade, but ends up at the seventh level of Qi Refining Realm. Layer, can only be regarded as a fairly acceptable clan soldier.

However, as each generation's life became better than the previous generation, and the popularity of Qiling Pill gradually increased, the weak bloodline gradually became apparent, and it was only in this generation that Zhuge Liangcai, a single Miao Miao with good cultivation talent, emerged.

When he was eight years old, he was found to have a lower grade C qualification and received a scholarship provided by the Wang family.

He himself was very successful. At the age of thirteen or fourteen, he relied on hard work and diligence to get into Wang's elite class. He received a good education and was included in the training sequence for family generals.

Because he had good fighting talent and was calm and cautious, he successfully joined the Wang family's patrol team after graduation and became one of the many generals of the Wang family.

Today, he is in his tenth year as a member of the patrol.

Because of his good performance, he has received a lot of rewards. Mr. An Song, who was in charge of coastal defense some time ago, praised him by name and made him the squad leader.

Now, he has reached the eighth level of Qi Refining Realm before he is thirty.

According to the rules of the Wang family, as long as you polish your cultivation to the ninth level of the Qi Refining Realm before the age of sixty, you can receive a Heavenly Spirit Pill and some other auxiliary materials from the Wang family's warehouse.

Maybe, he will become the first person in the Zhuge family to break through to the Lingtai realm.

Although he is the general of the Wang family, he can still take care of the rest of the Zhuge family to a certain extent. In this way, the Zhuge family can be regarded as half a cultivating family.

As long as you can raise enough money to buy enough land and make great achievements, it is possible to become a formally canonized ninth-grade family. Now the Wang family also has relevant policies.

My ancestors more than a hundred years ago probably never imagined that the Zhuge family would have such a day~

Thinking about the high expectations that his grandfather, uncles and elders had for him since he was a child, Zhuge Liangcai felt that the burden on his shoulders was heavy, and he became more serious and cautious when patrolling.

In the patrol room.

Suddenly.

There was a commotion coming from the direction of the dock.

Zhuge Liangcai immediately led people over and took control of the situation with a few people from the patrol team. However, he saw a large light blue fish with a size as big as a hill swimming leisurely towards the entrance of the sea.

There are three tiny figures standing on the big fish's head.

One of the figures is dressed in white and has a graceful figure. Even from such a distance, people will notice it at a glance.

"It's Mr. Anye and the two princesses!"

Someone in the patrol team immediately reacted and exclaimed.

Zhuge Liangcai's eyes also lit up.

Even if they couldn't see clearly the figure on Big Fish's head with their eyesight, they still knew who it was. After all, not everyone is qualified to stand on Master Zong Kun’s forehead.

"Quick! Send someone quickly back to inform the family!" Zhuge Liangcai quickly ordered.

At this time, the entire dock was completely boiling with excitement and excitement, as if it were a festival.

There was no other way. Mr. An Ye and the two princesses went to sea to "herd fish" and were away for a long time. It took so long that they started to miss them.

This time, Mr. Anye will definitely be able to bring back a lot of good things when he returns, and even those of them who rely on the Wang family's industrial system will get a lot of benefits.

After all, who doesn’t like the God of Wealth~

…
