Text Chapter 217: Low-Key Cultivation

The so-called ‘Brother Miao’ naturally refers to Miao Yi.

He hardly looks at the current Donglai Cave Master, but pays attention to the former Cave Master, which is somewhat embarrassing.

Even Yuan Fang and Lai Yuhan looked at Gongsun Yu with evil eyes. They are now also part of Donglai Cave. Gongsun Yu's words and deeds somewhat give people the feeling of insulting Donglai Cave. After all, Yan Xiu now represents when he goes out. Go to Donglai Cave.

However, Yan Xiu knew that he was a sheep's head being sold as a sheep's head, so he was not unhappy at all and replied: "I am practicing in seclusion."

Gongsun Yu said "Oh", and when he came into contact with the cold eyes of the two Qinglian masters, his heart froze. Without saying anything more, he turned the dragon colt and led the people to Zhenhai Mountain.

Yan Xiu also left with his people.

Arriving at Zhenhai Mountain, the two of them were led successively by their aunt Luliu into the attic where the owner of the mountain, Qin Weiwei, dealt with matters in Zhenhai Mountain.

After completing the annual payment, Qin Weiwei, who was holding the Donglai Cave Memorial Certificate, asked seemingly casually, "Ma Cheng Miao Yi is not uncooperative with you, is he?"

Gongsun Yu on the side immediately stared at Qin Weiwei with some scrutiny, observing the changes in her expression.

Yan Xiu smiled bitterly in his heart. Although he was nominally the cave owner of Donglai Cave, it was obvious that Miao Yi was the one who really deserved everyone's attention.

But there was nothing that could be done about it. Donglaidong led by Miao Yi twice turned the tide against powerful enemy attacks, and twice attacked the side of Shaotaishan. It can be said that the results were brilliant, both in the two prefectures and even in the Wanxing Prefecture. When it comes to Donglai Cave, everyone seems to 'identify' with the former cave owner. Yan Xiu can naturally feel this when he temporarily acts as Donglai Cave's contact with the outside.

Face the mountain owner and ask. Yan Xiu replied: "Miao Ma Cheng is dedicated to his duties and very cooperative with his subordinates."

Qin Weiwei nodded and asked again: "Are you coming with me this time?"

Yan Xiu replied: "No."

Gongsun Yu, who had been observing silently, seemed to catch something strange in Qin Weiwei's eyes. In other words, she was disappointed. It seemed that she was a little disappointed that Miao Yi didn't come. Why was she disappointed? Do you want to see Miao Yi?

Gongsun Yu's heart twitched slightly, and he immediately noticed something.

Qin Weiwei looked up and asked, "What has he been doing in the past year?"

Yan Xiu replied: "Except for my professional duties, I almost never leave the house and have been practicing in seclusion."

Qin Weiwei suddenly hesitated to speak. Miao Yi, who had always been dishonest, turned out to be so honest. She couldn't help but wonder if she was unhappy about being demoted to Ma Cheng and was expressing her protest in silence. However, the strange words were not asked after all.

However, to Gongsun Yu, she seemed to care too much. Is Ma Cheng, a caveman, worthy of your concern as a mountain master?

Hongmian and Luliu also looked at each other quietly...

Yan Xiu, who had completed the one-year annual payment task, was not qualified to accompany the mountain master to escort the annual payment to Nanxuan Mansion, but he brought back some bad news to Miao Yi.

Xiong Xiao also seemed to be seizing the time to practice. Cultivation level breaks through again. The cultivation level is already at the first level of Qinglian!

"I got it! Don't forget to send a copy of the claim list from Guiyi Mountain every year."

Miao Yi was not surprised that Xiong Xiao's cultivation had entered another realm. The nearly one year of meditation seemed to have calmed his mind a lot.

He just came out to give a brief explanation, met with everyone, paid everyone the expected salary, and then went back to retreat.

Yuan Fang and others, who wanted to explore something, could not find the opportunity because they could hardly see Miao Yi's face.

Miao Yi has truly entered a state of complete seclusion and practice, and now he has enough wish beads. There is a temporarily safe cultivation environment and a group of subordinates to protect him. There are still 100,000 believers on hand to provide other training resources, and there are also maids to serve. There is no need to worry about food and clothing. Things that need to be handled by the cave master do not require him to come forward to deal with the waste of time. Yan Xiu is there to take care of it. It can be said that I have no worries for the time being and can focus on practicing!

This state of cultivation is what many casual cultivators or disciples of various sects dream of, and Miao Yi himself can feel it when he calms down.

Not to mention that those casual cultivators do not have various guarantees in life for hundreds of thousands of believers. First of all, the safety environment is worrying. In order to rob the limited cultivation resources, the casual cultivators generally do not dare to rob people under the Six Saints System. It may be that the poor are plundering each other, and the cycle becomes more and more vicious, and the situation is difficult, let alone having enough wish beads, unless there is a powerful background to cover it.

This is also the reason why many casual cultivators dream of joining the rules, because at least they don't have to worry about normal safety and security, and they can also get certain cultivation resources.

Even if the conditions of the disciples of each sect are slightly better than those of casual cultivators, the sect still needs training resources to support those disciples. Not to mention doing odd jobs, running around for the sect, hunting, killing, mining or collecting spiritual herbs, etc. This is all normal, otherwise no sect would have the cultivation resources dropped from the sky to support you.

Miao Yi looked like a stone sculpture in the quiet room, but time flew by outside.

Another year came, and it was still Yan Xiu who led his people there, but Miao Yi still did not show up, and seemed to gradually fade out of the sight of the people in the two houses.

It suddenly became so low-key, so low-key that it was almost silent, which first caused Zhenhai Mountain to send a red cotton to inspect.

When everyone in Donglai Cave was summoned, Miao Yi appeared for a moment, hiding at the back of the crowd, silently, as if he was a humble Ma Cheng, who gave Hong Mian a toothache.

As soon as Hong Mian left, Miao Yi continued to retreat.

After returning to Zhenhai Mountain, Hongmian was immediately questioned by Qin Weiwei, "How is the situation in Donglai Cave?"

"Replying to the mountain master, everything is normal."

"Did Miao Yi cause trouble for Yan Xiu?" Qin Weiwei always used this excuse to find out someone's situation in a roundabout way.

Hongmian could guess her thoughts to some extent and knew what she was paying attention to. She replied, "No, what I saw was that all the affairs of Donglai Cave were managed by Yan Xiu. He was very low-key, so low-key that he didn't want to meet me, and he didn't even seem to want to talk to me."

Qin Weiwei was silent. After a long silence, she pondered and said, "Do you think he looks resentful about being demoted to Ma Cheng?"

Hongmian shook her head and said, "I can't tell. His words and deeds are very calm."

Qin Weiwei frowned and said, "Could it be that Yan Xiu has completely taken control of Donglai Cave beyond our expectations? Is Yan Xiu suppressing him?"

Hongmian was a little amused and thought, if you want to see it, go and see it yourself. Although you are the owner of the mountain, women don't need to be so tough. If you want others to know something, just express it directly. How can you know their attitude if you don't say it? You are always so tough, how can others know your attitude?

Lvliu was also a little helpless. Although she had guessed Qin Weiwei's thoughts, she couldn't ask directly, for fear of scaring the seemingly tough owner of the mountain back.

"I don't see any signs of him being suppressed. Although he is very low-key, I see that everyone's attitude towards him is still very respectful. It can be seen that although he is low-key, his status in Donglai Cave is very transcendent. The mansion belonging to the cave owner does not belong to Yan Xiu, and he still occupies it." Hongmian replied.

Qin Weiwei knocked her red lips lightly with her pearly teeth and remained silent...

Not to mention her, even the owner of the mansion Yang Qing was a little surprised.

Although Yang Qing favored Miao Yi, for him, he had to face the entire two mansions. It was impossible for him to always pay attention to Miao Yi. There were many people and things in the two mansions that were more important to Yang Qing than Miao Yi.

However, after not hearing about Miao Yi for a long time, he naturally reacted one day. After asking Qin Weiwei a little, Qin Weiwei would not show any abnormality in front of him. She only said that Miao Yi was very honest and there was no unusual news.

Yang Qing was immediately surprised, so Qingju inadvertently went to inspect Donglai Cave again.

Just like when Hongmian came to Donglai Cave, Miao Yi still hid behind the crowd at any time, keeping a low profile, and had no intention of meeting Qingju.

Qingju was obviously more outgoing than Qingmei. Relying on their acquaintance, she took the initiative to stop him and chat with him, "How does it feel to be Ma Cheng?"

Miao Yi said politely, "Not bad."

"Not bad?" Qingju's eyes moved, and she smiled sweetly, "Do you want me to say a few good words to the Lord of the House to help you get your job back?"

Miao Yi shook his head and said, "Thank you, little aunt, for your kindness. It's great now."

No matter what Qingju asked, Miao Yi always kept a polite reply, a little bit unyielding, and didn't let Qingju find out any of his feelings.

After Qingju returned to Nanxuan House, her report to Yang Qing was similar to Hongmian's.

Yang Qing was immediately surprised, "Has this kid really changed his nature or has he been beaten up by me..."

It doesn't matter what outsiders think. For Miao Yi himself, he has to seize the time to improve his strength.

Reinstatement is nothing. I don't care about the position of cave master anymore. I'd rather be the mountain master.

The resources on hand will be exhausted one day. I can't go to Xingxiu Sea to rob again. After going there once, I really understand that I can't be so lucky every time I go to Xingxiu Sea to escape. It's better to get a stable high-income position first, such as the position of mountain master.

He also knows that he suffers from insufficient cultivation. Now he must seize the opportunity of the stable environment to improve his cultivation as soon as possible. Only with hard power can he have the real capital. Otherwise, it is not a long-term solution to keep a group of people to protect himself at such a cost. He can't afford it.

However, he also knows his advantage, that is, as long as he has enough wish beads, his cultivation progress is much faster than ordinary people, and he still has a great chance to kill Xiong Xiao.

After some things, he has gradually matured and has a long-term plan in his mind. The next time he takes action against Xiong Xiao, it will not be as simple as killing him. There is no need to take advantage of others. Killing Xiong Xiao now can only help others. Next time he gets promoted, he will offend people again. Why bother?

So if we want to do it, we have to take over Xiong Xiao's position. (To be continued. Please search for Piaotian Literature. The novels are better and updated faster!
