Chapter 2179 Method
They said it was a celebration, but in fact they just talked a little more and reminisced about old times.
Most of the time, Zhou Shu was discussing current issues with Jian Lao in a way he had never done before.
"If it were me, I would have to fall out with you."
Jian Lao looked at Zhou Shu with a solemn look in his eyes, "What you did is very wrong. You are someone who always values them. Although you have always been apart, with Zhibaoxuan here, there is always the possibility of getting back together in the future. But now, You used the token he gave you to become a True Immortal, but after you came out, you ignored him and instead courted others in front of him. In my opinion, this is the most obvious form of rebellion. As a Golden Immortal, you must I can’t stand it any longer and must do something.”
Zhou Shu seemed to be thoughtful, "Yes, I sincerely declined the previous few times without causing him any loss of face. Moreover, at that time, I was just a miscellaneous immortal and my status was too low, so he wouldn't care too much. But it's different now... …But when things happened suddenly, I was still thinking about how to consolidate my realm, so I didn’t think too much about it. Of course, I have never liked Chang Tian very much and had a grudge against him, so I didn’t think much about him at all at that time.”
Jian Lao said slowly, "It's useless to talk about it now. Think about how to solve it."
Zhou Shu nodded, "Well, I think this will happen sooner or later, although it's still a little early... Mr. Jian, how do you think we can do it well?"
"There are several ways."
Jian Lao thought for a while and said, "First, go over there tomorrow to thank Chang Tian, say something nice in front of Shouzheng and the chief secretary, and give him an expensive gift, so that he can gain face. In front of Shouzheng, It is impossible for him to stop chasing you fiercely and make big things small and small things disappear. But if you do this, it is equivalent to letting the whole East District know that you are a Changtian person. There seems to be no harm in it. After you become gold Immortal Qian can get enough resources, and Zhibaoxuan's share will definitely be more. When you become a Golden Immortal and are on an equal footing with him, you can just throw him away."
Zhou Shu smiled faintly, "This is tantamount to retreating in order to gain time to practice. But if Chang Tian asks me to do some particularly dangerous things before I become a golden immortal, such as chasing the murderer in another world, what should I do? how?"
Jian Lao spread his hands and said, "What can I do? It's been assigned to you, can you still refuse? I have to do it."
Zhou Shu's expression was slightly condensed, "Let's not mention the danger. The key point is that Chang Tian has murderous intentions. If he threatens to take revenge and makes a little move, I will be sitting on the ground and let him slaughter me. This method will not work."
"Well, then there's the second way."
Jian Lao nodded, knowing that Zhou Shu would say this, "It's not difficult, find a way to find a backer, and make Chang Tian feel that dealing with you will cost a lot, even to the point of breaking his own muscles and bones, then he won't If you do it, you'll be fine."
Zhou Shu sighed slightly, "The Golden Immortal will never offend the Golden Immortal for the sake of the True Immortal, unless the True Immortal is of great use to him. Neither Mu Xue nor Yu Yitian will do this for me, and I want to find the truly useful one." To gain a backer, I have to sell my ability, but all I can sell now is my unrealized talent. If this thing is sold, I will no longer belong to me. It is no different from selling it to Chang Tian, so why bother with it."
Jian Lao nodded lightly, "That's how it is. You've been in Immortal City for so long and haven't you realized that Immortal City is a place like this? Because of the existence of city regulations, it is impossible for sect gangs to appear in Wufang City. The power of the group means that the strong is respected, and the strong can decide everything. If low-level immortals want to live a peaceful life and practice, they must rely on the strong, otherwise they will survive in the cracks. It is better not to offend others. Once they offend others, they want to It’s impossible to survive, you’re like this now, and you’ve offended someone that many golden immortals can’t afford to offend.”
Zhou Shu smiled and said, "I can see it too, but I don't see it as clearly as Jian Lao."
"Stop flattering, you just don't want to say it."
Jian Lao snorted and his face became solemn, "You'd better think of the second way. Find a reliable backer. You don't have to sell your talent to sell your future. You also have other things that can be sold at a good price. .”
Zhou Shu glanced outside at Hanruo who was practicing as if nothing had happened, and shook his head, "I know, but that's impossible, none of it is mine."
Jian Lao said calmly, "I'll just say it casually. This is just the simplest. You should be able to come up with a better way."
Zhou Shu seemed to have some realization, "If I have enough time, I should be able to do it."
He is already a true immortal. He can fully display what he has in front of the East District and even the entire Wufang City. As long as he has enough fame, even if there is no Golden Immortal to protect him, Chang Tian will have to consider touching him. Weighed.
Jian Lao said slowly, "Then just buy time and become a celebrity as soon as possible, such as a celebrity like Mo Xian."
Mo Xian is indeed a celebrity.
Although he is a true immortal, he has always lived in the North District where golden immortals gather. He also occupies one of the three best immortal peaks in the North District, Juxian Peak.
The usually aloof Golden Immortal had to visit Juxian Peak in person if he wanted to see him, and even begged in a low voice, just to get an elixir.
Yes, Mo Xian is a genius alchemist. He is the only one in Wufang City who can refine the fifth-grade elixir, the elixir that can help Jinxian go further.
No one would mess with Mo Xian, even if he was just a true immortal or a miscellaneous immortal.
Zhou Shu hesitated and smiled unconsciously, "If it were Yang Mei, I would have an idea to help her become the next Mo Xian, but it wouldn't work for me. At that level of alchemy, it is impossible without talent. And my talent in that area is really not high.”
Alchemy is Zhou Shu's master of suffering, and it has always been so in the Xuanhuang Realm.
His calculations and deductions cannot be used much in alchemy. The requirements for alchemy are too high, and the changes are too sudden and fantasy. Only those who are truly talented in alchemy can be unique in this aspect and refine the best elixirs, just like bayberry. Just like Mo Xian, even if Zhou Shu maximizes his talent, he still can't refine a fifth-grade elixir, even if he reaches the Golden Immortal level.
The only way to refine a high-level elixir is if Zhou Shu is transparent or has mastered the laws of reincarnation and allows the laws to condense the elixir on its own. But with such a level of cultivation, there may be no point in refining such an elixir.
Jian Lao said in a deep voice, "I'm not asking you to make elixirs. You can try something else."
"I know, but it takes time."
Zhou Shu nodded slightly, looked at Jian Lao and said with a smile, "Jian Lao, that's enough. If you say it this way, it will be much clearer."
Jian Lao breathed a long sigh of relief and hummed, "I'm really tired."
In the past, when he and Jian Lao discussed, the two of them always stood on the same side. As Zhou Shu's absolute ally, Jian Lao would consider Zhou Shu first no matter what, and then consider the matter itself. But this time it was different. Zhou Shu I specifically asked Jian Lao to be as objective as possible and consider it as a bystander or even an enemy, so that the conclusions drawn would be more useful and effective.
