Chapter 148: Joining the Tongzhou Alliance Again

A few months later.

Shopkeeper Sun resigned from his post, left Canglanfang City, and returned to the secular world to take care of himself.

Chu Chen knows the new Dan Pavilion shopkeeper.

Taoist Qingrong.

A member of the Tongzhou Alliance, whose status is second to Qiao Yan'er. He is Qiao Yan'er's right-hand man. He is regarded as the deputy director of the Tongzhou Alliance by all members of the Tongzhou Alliance.

When Chu Chen was still in the Tongzhou Alliance, his relationship with Taoist Qingrong was pretty good. Sometimes they would drink together and chat all night long.

"Why did Taoist Qingrong come to Canglanfang City Dan Pavilion to be the shopkeeper?"

Chu Chen was a little surprised.

With Taoist Qingrong's tenth level of Qi training, he is more than enough to be the shopkeeper of Canglanfang City Dan Pavilion.

But if you want to be the owner of the Alchemy Pavilion, you not only need cultivation, but also need to master the art of alchemy. Not only must you be an A-level alchemist, but you must at least be a B-level alchemist.

Taoist Qingrong is a formation master, not an alchemist.

"Did Qiao Yan'er help behind the scenes?"

Chu Chen understood clearly in his heart.

The will of a foundation-building master is enough to break the rules that the Dan Pavilion has adhered to for many years.

On the first day that Taoist Qingrong arrived, he was warmly welcomed by the alchemists of the Alchemy Pavilion. They all held banquets in Tingyu Tower to entertain Taoist Qingrong.

A group of alchemists may not know the specific background of Taoist Qingrong, but if a formation master can become the owner of the alchemy pavilion, all fools know that Taoist Qingrong is not simple.

Everyone did not dare to neglect and showed their kindness to Taoist Qingrong one after another.

Chu Chen followed the trend and also set up a table of spiritual delicacies in Tingyu Tower and invited Taoist Qingrong to come and have a gathering.

"Fellow Daoist Sun, this wine?"

Taoist Qingrong tasted the spiritual wine poured by Chu Chen, with a surprised look on his face.

"This wine is called Hanquan Manna. If fellow Taoist Qingrong likes it, I still have several altars, and I can give two of them to you."

Chu Chen smiled.

"Fellow Taoist, where does this spiritual wine come from?"

Taoist Qingrong asked.

Chu Chen replied: "A few years ago, I bought it from an old Taoist."

"But an old man with white hair, wearing a green robe, and a warm smile on his face?"

Taoist Qingrong was a little excited and described the appearance of 'Qin Zhou' to Chu Chen.

"Exactly. Fellow Taoist, do you recognize this old Taoist?"

A hint of doubt appeared on Chu Chen's face at the right time.

"This is an old friend of mine. This wine is a kind of spiritual wine that he is good at brewing. He separated from me many years ago and disappeared."

Taoist Qingrong's eyes showed a look of reminiscence, and he asked calmly: "Fellow Taoist, do you know the whereabouts of my old friend?"

"I don't know either. This old man only stayed in Canglanfang City for a few days and sold a batch of cold spring nectar, and he never appeared again."

Chu Chen shook his head, but his heart trembled.

‘Whether it is a mortal woman or a female monk, sometimes she is so petty and so small-minded. After so many years, Qiao Yaner is still following my traces? ’

Chu Chen sighed secretly, and was even more grateful for his decision to leave in the first place.

If he was still in the Tongzhou Alliance, he would inevitably be punished by Qiao Yaner.

If the secret of the Taoist Fruit of Immortality is exposed, it will be troublesome.

"I see."

Taoist Qingrong nodded without any doubt.

The two of them were drinking and chatting, and Chu Chen made insinuations about the purpose of Taoist Qingrong's visit to Canglanfang City.

Taoist Qingrong was very calm, or in other words, he had no intention of covering up at all.

According to Taoist Qingrong, he was ordered to come to Canglanfang City to establish a branch of the Tongzhou Alliance.

"A branch of the Tongzhou Alliance?"

When Chu Chen heard this, his heart moved.

Through Jin Kexing, he learned that Qiao Yaner had controlled Chiyanfang City through the Tongzhou Alliance since she broke through the foundation building period and became the guardian of Chiyanfang City.

Nearly ten years have passed, and with the support of Qiao Yan'er, the Tongzhou League has taken control of all aspects of Chiyanfang City.

Spirit rice, talismans, array flags, including the elixir business, are all controlled by the Tongzhou Alliance.

Therefore, Chiyanfang City has become Qiao Yaner's one-stop shop. No matter Master Qingxu or Master Lingyin, they have less control over Chiyanfang City than Qiao Yaner.

"Qiao Yan'er finally couldn't help it and wanted to reach out to other cities."

The expansion of the Tongzhou Alliance is a general trend. In fact, a few years ago, Chu Chen thought that Qiao Yaner would expand the Tongzhou Alliance. Unexpectedly, Qiao Yaner had to wait for several more years.

"Being steady and steady, this woman may really be able to make a difference in the Qingzhou Immortal Cultivation World."

The premise of all this is that Qiao Yaner is strong enough.

With Qiao Yan'er's current level of cultivation, there would be no problem if the Tongzhou Alliance ventures into two or three cities. However, if the Tongzhou Alliance continues to expand, it is likely to be suppressed.

In the world of immortality, in the final analysis, strength is the most important thing.

The Tongzhou Alliance only has one foundation-building master, Qiao Yaner, and it is not qualified to grow into an organization that spans the Qingzhou Immortal Cultivation World.

Unless Qiao Yaner can grow into a late-stage Foundation Establishment monk, or even a Peak Foundation Establishment monk, and recruit a few more Foundation Establishment monks.

The topic returned to Taoist Qingrong. Under the arrangement of Qiao Yaner, Taoist Qingrong became the shopkeeper of Dan Pavilion and took control of Dan Pavilion. He wanted to establish a branch of the Tongzhou Alliance based on Dan Pavilion.

"Fellow Taoist, would you like to join my fellow-ship alliance?"

Taoist Qingrong sincerely extended the invitation.

"This...I am the alchemist of the Alchemy Pavilion."

Hearing this, Chu Chen hesitated.

Dan Pavilion is also an organization under the Yunshui Sect, similar to the Tongzhou Alliance.

Going back further, the founder of Dan Pavilion was an alchemy master from Yunshui Sect, and the current controller of Dan Pavilion is also a foundation-building master from Yunshui Sect.

"Fellow Taoist, don't worry. I can become the shopkeeper of Dan Pavilion in Canglanfang City, and Master Lingqian also knows it."

Taoist Qingrong thought about it and revealed some information.

Chu Chen's expression changed. The information revealed in Taoist Qingrong's words was very obvious.

Tongzhou League and Dan Pavilion, or more precisely, Qiao Yan'er and Linggan Zhenren, the controller of Dan Pavilion, have joined forces.

"Even so, it's better to obey than to be respectful."

Chu Chen raised his glass and toasted Taoist Qingrong.

"Joining Tongzhou League will definitely not disappoint fellow Taoist."

Taoist Qingrong also raised his glass and toasted Chu Chen.

For a while, both the host and the guest were happy.

"So, I joined Tongzhou League again?"

However, he is not the talisman master Qin Zhou now, but the alchemist Zhou Qin.

Compared with the talisman master Qin Zhou, the identity of the alchemist Zhou Qin is more inconspicuous. Even if he joins the Tongzhou League, it will not attract too much attention from Qiao Yan'er.

He does not need to leave Canglan Market.

The next day, Chu Chen went to Dan Pavilion to inquire about the news. Many alchemists in Dan Pavilion, except for a few first-class alchemists, all other alchemists have agreed to join Tongzhou League.

A-grade alchemists have a very high status in Dan Pavilion, and even Linggan Zhenren will give them a certain amount of respect and will not force them too much.

But in Chu Chen's opinion, it is only a matter of time before these A-grade alchemists join Tongzhou League.

Linggan Zhenren intends to join forces with Qiao Yaner, so how could these A-grade alchemists go against Linggan Zhenren's wishes?

Now they are just waiting for a price, and want to gain more benefits for themselves.

"With Linggan Zhenren joining, the development speed of Tongzhou League may exceed my imagination."

Chu Chen's eyes were condensed.

This was something he had not expected, and he didn't know how Qiao Yaner would convince Linggan Zhenren to join forces with her.

Of course.

No matter how Qiao Yaner persuaded Lingmi Gan Zhenren, judging from the current situation, the rise of Tongzhou League has begun to show signs.

I just don't know how far Tongzhou League can go?
