Chapter 1952 Being Honest
This battle did not last long, only about an hour.
But the noise here was so loud that it alarmed many people.
Especially when Qu Jianlei and others were hunting down the Immortal Bowen, the scope of the pursuit even exceeded the control area of the Yan family.
Fortunately, Yan Xuemin and another Jindan of the Yan family were not involved in the formation and they controlled the situation in time.
But even so, there were still many Jindan spiritual consciousness watching from afar, but they did not dare to get close.
It's not that they don't know how to live or die, it's really a melee at the Nascent Soul level, which may very likely lead to a major reshuffle of Dongsheng's forces.
As an eyewitness to the incident, how could I not attach importance to first-hand information?
When the formation dispersed, several powerful Nascent Soul consciousnesses swept outward, and those Golden Core consciousnesses were hurriedly retracted.
The next moment, Qu Jianlei, Jing Yuexin, the paranoid maniac, Jia Shuiqing, Ji Xiaohua and Thousand Hands Immortal were already sitting in a pavilion.
It’s not the pavilion halfway up the mountain, but it’s still rather crude. However, Qu Jianlei doesn’t care.
He had seen the luxury of Ji Xiaohua's cave, but had also seen the simplicity of Zhu Jiayi's residence, so he felt that there was no need to work hard on this.
The Thousand-Handed Immortal sat a little further away from the other five, mainly because the fighting spirit he had just displayed was slightly inferior to Ji Xiaohua's.
But as an aside, the confidence of the independent cultivators who are becoming immortals is really a little lacking.
Even though the Ji family has become outdated, it still has huge resources in its hands.
If Ji Xiaohua and he were living in a different place, he would definitely not behave like this.
However, at this moment, Thousand-Handed Immortal did not feel unconvinced, but rather felt quite fortunate.
He was actually commissioned by the Immortal Ke Liang. Few people in the outside world knew that they were friends who had risked their lives for each other.
After Ke Liang found out that someone was going to make things difficult for Hongyeling, he found him immediately.
What Ke Liang meant was that this was a rare opportunity and it was not convenient for me to show up, but you must seize it!
Because for a casual cultivator, it is extremely rare to get the news earlier than the Ji family.
Qianshou didn't want to come at first, but Ke Liang said: I am repaying you a huge favor.
It doesn’t matter if you don’t want to go, and it’s okay if you don’t want to compromise. I just don’t want you to say in the future that I only eat alone!
Having said that, Qianshou had no choice but to come, and he quickly rushed over.
Who would have thought that Hongyeling would actually give him such a huge surprise!
If you don’t believe it, you can take a look. Sitting opposite the six True Immortals is Zeng Jiarui, one of the five great deacons of the Cultivator Alliance!
But at this moment, Deacon Zeng was under a ban! The seven True Immortals were not equal.
The host asked Jia Shuiqing, "Tell me about this 扌丸氵去令. How did you get it?"
Zeng Jiarui was full of dissatisfaction, "How could he get it? He must have followed the normal process."
"I advise you to tell the truth," Jia Shuiqing said calmly, "You are right. It is not convenient for us to kill you..."
"But I have thousands of ways to make you suffer and lose face... I wonder if you believe me or not?"
Zeng Jiarui certainly believed it. This group of people were immune to attacks within the Ten Directions Demon Subduing Formation. What else could they not do?
So he simply said, "It was Le Tong's activity, I just didn't object."
"Is it just his activities?" Jia Shuiqing's face was full of suspicion, "Wu Minxi was just wanted by them before!"
"Under the current situation, even if it is Hundred Medicine Valley that is responsible for the activities, they cannot instruct the Cultivator Alliance to investigate us, right?"
"After all, this is just a wanted order from a single force. It really puts us in a desperate situation... Has the Cultivator Alliance considered the consequences?"
What Qu Jianlei and his gang want to know most is the original intention behind this action of the Cultivator Alliance.
If the situation can be resolved, that would be best. However, the forces at Dongsheng are determined to achieve a certain goal, and they may not tolerate it.
Cui Jiarui was silent for a few breaths, and finally sighed, "In the final analysis, Hongye Ridge is too powerful and uncontrollable!"
In his words, there had been gray transactions in the Cultivator Alliance in the past, but it was basically impossible for them to involve the level of Hongye Ridge.
But this time, Hongyeling did not respond to the call and still wanted the position of deacon, which made most people in the alliance dissatisfied.
However, it is not appropriate to vent such dissatisfaction, because everything shows that this force is very powerful.
The Cultivator Alliance is just a loose alliance, and each person has his or her own interests.
At this time, if you expect anyone to come out and openly oppose it, I can only say... you are thinking too much!
But at this critical juncture, the Seven Stars Sect jumped out and insisted on targeting Hongye Ridge. Who could possibly object?
Therefore, those processes that were not feasible in the past can now be carried out smoothly.
Moreover, Zeng Jiarui was also secretly fanning the flames. Even if he wanted to deny it, Qu Jianlei and others would make up their own stories.
But others didn't want to get deeply involved in this matter, and in the end only the Seven Stars Sect and the Zeng Family arrived with their warships.
As for the Immortal Bowen, he was invited by the Seven Stars Sect - the Five Shang Sect does have more connections with Zhongzhou.
After he finished speaking, Jia Shuiqing snorted coldly, "Didn't you say... that you were going to go out and explore the void?"
"We have lost too many people here. How can we explore the void?"
"It's just a motion," Zeng Jiarui answered subconsciously.
After a pause, he coughed lightly and said, "If we can convict Hongyeling, won't we have the manpower to explore?"
"I know that's it," Old Lady Jia sneered, "Catch some scapegoats to do the work."
The corner of Zeng Jiarui's mouth twitched, but he didn't dare to say anything.
In any case, his answer was quite honest, so at this moment, it would be best not to irritate him further.
Anyway, these things cannot be hidden from these cunning people who have lived for hundreds of years, so it is better to choose to tell the truth.
But the next moment, Jia Shuiqing changed the subject, "But I don't believe that you are so innocent in this matter..."
"I'm just a small fry in Hongyeling. It's very stressful for me to help you get away with it."
"How about this, why don't you prove yourself that you are innocent..."
"I understand!" Zeng Jiarui said without hesitation, proving himself... What a joke, what the hell is that?
"Fellow Daoist Jia, my Zeng family still has some Nascent Soul techniques."
In fact, it is just an exchange of interests between Chiguo and Heguo. He wants to redeem himself!
Otherwise, there were six Yuanying masters sitting opposite, why was only one of them speaking while the others were silent?
This is not called bribery, it's called showing an attitude - the other five people, please understand that my Zeng family is sincere!
Jia Shuiqing paused. She didn't expect that the Zeng family would kneel so easily.
But the next moment, she shook her head decisively, "Nascent Soul... I'm afraid it's almost there. We have collected most of it."
This is really not an empty statement. Recently, this repair fluid has helped them collect a wave of Nascent Soul techniques.
Although the repair fluid is suitable for a small group of people, it is unique and those who need it really need it!
The key point is that the Dongsheng Continent is only this big, and how many Nascent Soul techniques can it have?
Now, apart from a few basic techniques that are used by their own families, most of the techniques circulating outside have been collected.
Many unheard-of martial arts techniques were dug out from hidden corners.
So Jia Shuiqing meant, "As for the out-of-body experience, it's not impossible to discuss it."
"I'm sorry," Zeng Jiarui shook his head without hesitation, "I don't have any at home!"
"I have it!" Qianshou Zhenxian interrupted directly, "As long as you can afford the price."
"The price is easy to negotiate," Qu Jianlei looked at him with a smile, "Fellow Daoist Qianshou, just name your price, and name it high."
"Don't be afraid of hurting our feelings. As long as you can show us the secret of leaving the body, which we don't have... it will only enhance our relationship!"
"Well..." Thousand Hands Immortal glanced at Zeng Jiarui and said after a moment's hesitation, "I just, ahem, have some experience."
Just looking at his expression, no one would believe that he only had one idea, but was unable to say it because Zeng Jiarui was present.
Jia Shuiqing didn't dwell on this question, but just coughed twice as well.
“Ahem, Daoist Fellow Qianshou is a casual cultivator, but he can also experience the state of leaving the body… It’s really rare, you are a good friend!”
She almost pointed at his nose and cursed - Damn it, your Zeng family is one of the twelve major families, but your foundation is not as good as that of a casual cultivator?
Zeng Jiarui was extremely annoyed at this moment.
He looked at the Thousand Hands Immortal deeply and said, "Daoyou Qianshou...you are indeed an honest person."
"Huh?" Qu Jianlei raised his eyebrows when he heard that. "You threaten me in front of me. Do you really think that all these True Immortals in Hongye Ridge are dead?"
"No!" Zeng Jiarui was shocked and shook his head hurriedly, "I was just sighing."
He really wasn't sighing, it was simply because he acted too much in his daily life and it was a habit he developed subconsciously.
But Qu Jianlei's words really touched his heart, and he was really annoyed that the Thousand-Handed Immortal jumped out.
He is just a casual immortal cultivator, he can beat two of them by himself, but he interrupts at this time - who is he trying to embarrass?
But Qu Jianlei knew people like him too well. Hearing this, his face darkened. "So... you are sure that the Zeng family doesn't have it, right?"
"Zeng family..." Zeng Jiarui was stunned when he heard this. Should I say yes or no?
If he says yes, then what he just said is a lie; but if he says no... can he afford the consequences?
Fortunately, his IQ was still high, and he suddenly had an idea. "Even though I don't have it, I'll try my best to get it. Leave it to the Zeng family!"
Jia Shuiqing coughed lightly and said, "You are quite tactful. Now... we have to talk about our losses."
"Loss?" Zeng Jiarui couldn't hold it in anymore when he heard this.
"Fellow Daoist Jia, I sent people to collect the Out-of-Body Technique in order to compensate for our offense...Fellow Daoist, you still want to talk about the loss?"
"Why not talk about it?" Jia Shuiqing looked at him calmly, "Offense is offense, loss is loss."
"Your offense to us will damage the reputation of Red Leaf Ridge. Do you admit this?"
"I admit it," Zeng Jiarui nodded, but muttered in his heart: What about the lost reputation of my Zeng family?
Jia Shuiqing continued, "But our actual losses are also huge. The consumption of the Demon Subduing Formation... you know!"
