Chapter 689: Coercion and Inducement!
"The Cao family of the Jindan family?"
After leaving the side hall, Wei Hong thought to himself secretly.
Regarding offending Cao Hang and the other two, he actually felt very helpless and depressed.
Who would have thought that just by rejecting each other, Cao Hang would be so petty and directly resent him.
This was mainly because he had no understanding of Cao Hang and the two of them, which was why such a result was achieved.
But no matter what, Wei Hong would never agree to the Cao family's participation in this fight.
The Tang family in Guangning is another Jindan family. Its power is almost the same as that of the Cao family. Moreover, it can compete with the Cao family for the ownership of a mine. Its power can be imagined. Therefore, he is absolutely unwilling to do so because of a mine. He offended a Jindan family during a fight.
He enjoys the current life of ease and steady improvement in cultivation, and of course he does not want to get involved in the fights and disputes between the two golden elixir families.
"However, it seems that I still offended people, alas!"
Wei Hong couldn't help but sigh secretly when he thought of the ugly and gloomy expressions on Cao Hang's and Cao Hang's faces just now.
Originally, he had declined politely from the beginning, but who knew that the other party was so ignorant that he not only pressed forward step by step, but even assumed a threatening posture in the end.
As a result, Wei Hong was naturally even more unable to compromise.
Moreover, he did not immediately regard the entire Cao family as a huge threat in his mind. After all, in his opinion, rejecting the other party was just a trivial matter. The other party could definitely find another person to fight for them, and it was only Cao Hang who was so small-minded. , this matter is not a big deal, the Cao family should not take it seriously.
But the look in Cao Hang's eyes just now still made Wei Hong feel a little wary: "I just refused to fight, that guy won't be so stingy and wants to take revenge on me, right?"
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a little wary in his heart.
After leaving Cangling Hall, he did not return to Lingzhi Garden immediately. Instead, he went to Yuande Hall to buy a batch of alchemy materials to refine the elixirs he needed.
Now that he has broken through to the third level of foundation building, only the Zhengyang Pill among the pills he is familiar with can have an effect on him. Therefore, Wei Hong decided to refine the Zhengyang Pill in large quantities and then continue to practice hard in seclusion.
The cost of refining the elixir yourself is naturally much lower than purchasing the finished elixir directly from Yuande Hall, which is one of the reasons why he exposed his identity as an alchemist.
However, Wei Hong didn't know that when he was buying alchemy materials, Cao Zhen and Cao Jiang, another Cao clan member, not only quietly followed his whereabouts, but also made preparations to ambush him.
Completely unaware, after purchasing a batch of alchemy materials, he went to Baoqixuan to buy a batch of talisman painting materials. Then he slowly walked out of the gate of Cangshan Fairy City, and then left with his sword.
On the other side, Cao Zhen and Cao Jiang had hidden outside the city gate early. When they saw Wei Hong rising with his sword, Cao Zhen immediately said: "Fourth brother, this is this person. Shall we follow him immediately?"
Cao Jiang, who is next to Cao Zhen, is a middle-aged man with an arrogant expression and somewhat handsome appearance. He is wearing a black robe, his hair is simply tied up, and his eyes are slightly sharp.
Seeing Wei Hong's sword light rising into the sky, he said unhurriedly: "You follow at a distance and catch up quickly when you almost reach the destination. I will immediately go to the ambush point. I am flying with my sword." It is faster than him and can intercept it. When the time comes, we will attack from the front and back, and then use the power of the formation to kill it on the spot. "
"Okay, little brother will go right away!"
Seeing Cao Jiang's arrangement, Cao Zhen not only had no objection, but agreed with excitement, then immediately stood up with his sword and followed Wei Hong quietly.
As for Cao Jiang, he also flew up, but instead of following Cao Zhen, he took a slight detour and then headed towards his destination at full speed.
"Hmph, boy, if you dare to provoke our Cao family, you really don't know how to live or die!"
Cao Jiang sneered in his heart while flying.
He has a cultivation level of the fifth level of foundation building. He is naturally faster than Wei Hong when flying at full strength. This is why he is confident in intercepting Wei Hong. He believes that a monk of the second level of foundation building is in his hands. There is no way to turn the world upside down.
Moreover, they had already deployed a low-grade second-level [Five Elements Tracing Formation] on the only way for Wei Hong to go to Lingzhi Garden. As long as Wei Hong fell into the formation, there would be no way for Wei Hong to be spared. , the two of them can kill it calmly.
With this idea in mind, Cao Jiang quickly rushed towards the ambush point.
Wei Hong was flying in mid-air with his sword at this time, but his expression was a bit ugly.
Just because he noticed something unusual not long after leaving Cangshan Fairy City.
Just because an unspeakable and inexplicable crisis suddenly arose in his mind, and it lingered in his mind, as if something might happen, which made him immediately alert.
"Could it be that Cao Hang and the two really want to deal with me?"
Wei Hong frowned and thought to himself: "Except for Cao Hang, I asked myself that I have not offended anyone else. Could it be that they want to ambush me halfway?"
Cao Hang never expected that Wei Hong would directly guess the truth.
At this time, he was not sure who wanted to deal with him, but the sudden warning inspiration was absolutely unmistakable, and he had always trusted his intuition, so he immediately became alert.
"If you want to ambush me in the middle, you will definitely set up a formation or a trap, and it will definitely not be less than two people. From this point of view, it must be the Cao family!"
After thinking about it quickly, Wei Hong was sure of it soon.
He thought that the people who wanted to attack him this time were most likely Cao Hang and his partner, and they must have set up an ambush.
Originally, according to his principle of doing things, although the ambush had not happened yet and was not necessarily true, with his cautious nature, he could have taken a detour or changed his appearance, so that he could have avoided the crisis directly.
However, Wei Hong thought again: "The Cao family has learned my true identity and knows that I am stationed in the No. 7 Spiritual Plant Garden. If they are determined to make trouble for me, then I can't hide from them. Instead of passively being beaten, it is better to scare them directly or get rid of Cao Hang and his partner directly!"
Thinking of this, a trace of cold murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
He believed that as long as the matter was handled more neatly, there would be no handle left.
Cao Hang and his partner were naturally not taken seriously by Wei Hong. He was worried about the Cao family behind them.
But if he is always being remembered by the Cao family, this is not what he wants to see.
It is said that it is not the thieves who steal that are afraid of being remembered, but the thieves who are afraid of stealing. How can we always guard against thieves!
If this matter is not resolved, the Cao family may bring him more trouble.
With this idea in mind, Wei Hong made up his mind and did not change the direction at all. Instead, he flew straight to the spiritual plant garden, secretly swearing in his heart:
"I want to see what Cao Hang and the others want. If they really want to retaliate against me, don't blame me for being cruel!"
