Chapter 2001 The risk is too great
"Compensation?" Wuyou Zhenxian really didn't like to hear this. He came here to make money.
But the situation was stronger than the person, and the other party was really powerful, so he could only express it with humiliation.
"I don't accept being outnumbered. Let's have a fight. If I lose, I'll really accept it."
"How did you grow so big?" Immortal Yongheng rolled his eyes at him, "I admit defeat... You deserve to be beaten to death for trespassing into a private house!"
These words from Qu Jianlei may not have much power, but he said that they really work.
The local tyrants in Daye City really have such strength.
Immortal Yongheng's words were more than just hurtful. "I just accept the fact that I can't even afford the compensation. Have you worked so hard for so many years?"
If Immortal Wuyou didn't have some experience, he would have been so angry that he would have suffered internal injuries. However, he finally held back and asked, "What should I pay for it?"
Immortal Yongheng thought about it and finally shook his head, "Forget it, you are familiar with the Lord of Daye City, so go and file a complaint."
He certainly didn't mean to encourage the other party to file a complaint by saying this. Once Daye City discovered the Lord of Red Leaf Ridge, what would the Five Friends Alliance gain?
Just say this first to give the other party a psychological hint - this option is not advisable, so as to avoid future troubles.
No matter how familiar I am with them, how can I be as familiar with them as you? Wuyou Zhenxian snorted coldly, "I'm not familiar with them. Tell me your conditions."
"Well..." Immortal Yongheng pondered for a moment, then said, "I heard that you are very good at divination!"
"This is impossible!" Immortal Wuyou flatly refused. He knew very well that the other party was also good at divination.
"The divination technique left by our ancestor is the top secret of our Jinxia Sect. If this is what you are thinking, you'd better give up."
You and I are not the only ones who are good at divination! Immortal Yongheng sighed inwardly.
He knew that Lord Qu Ling was also good at this and had predicted the future of Dongsheng, so he was not asking for it just for himself.
But there was really no need to say it, he smiled and said, "Then I really can only send you to Daye City."
Immortal Yongheng understands the weaknesses of the Jinxia Sect better than Qu Jianlei.
The strength and influence of this sect were actually enough to be promoted long ago, but it has never been possible.
There are many reasons for this, but it is undeniable that their potential influence is stronger than some of the doormen, so it is no wonder that they feel depressed.
The current Jinxia faction is still striving for advancement, and the conditions are still so outstanding.
But they have failed too many times, and at this critical juncture, they cannot afford to make any mistakes.
Daye City’s perception of the Jinxia Sect is actually not that important, but... the Jinxia Sect can’t afford to gamble!
Immortal Wuyou was also very aware of this, so he was extremely angry.
He gritted his teeth and said, "Yongheng, I call you senior as a respect, can you take this revenge?"
The hatred of blocking the way will never end, but Yongheng smiled disapprovingly, "Why don't I know that you still have the ambition to leave your body?"
"You know what I'm talking about," Immortal Wuyou said coldly, "Jinxia Sheng's coming to my house is not just my fault."
It's not even just his fellow apprentices' business. There are so many people watching him inside and outside Pangxing City.
But how could Immortal Yongheng be frightened by him?
He sneered and asked, "Then did your two brothers know that you came here to cause trouble?"
This question stumped Wu You, and after a long while he answered, "Whatever you think, that's what it is."
However, his performance was not enough to faze the old fox Yongheng.
He chuckled, "Look, you didn't even tell those two, which shows that you know that what you did is unjust."
Immortal Wuyou remained silent, neither admitting nor denying.
Immortal Yongheng continued, "You are the one who started the trouble. If there is a grudge that hinders the path, your two brothers should come to you, right?"
There is nothing wrong with this logic and no one can find fault with it.
Immortal Wuyou couldn't help but speak. He said coldly, "We brothers have our own duties. You don't need to worry about us."
"It seems that this doesn't make sense," Immortal Yongheng looked at Qing Hu, "Let's take them to Daye City."
"I have another method of divination," Immortal Wuyou finally couldn't help himself, "I can give it to you. The Jinxia Sect's method is not good enough."
Immortal Yongheng looked at him in surprise, "Why not? Isn't it for the entire Jinxia community to benefit from your coming here this time?"
"I am obsessed with money," Immortal Wuyou sighed, "It's all my fault."
He was completely defeated by the opponent and it was impossible for him not to admit defeat. He really didn't want to become the sinner of the sect.
In fact, his most basic request was to obtain two bottles of repair fluid at a relatively reasonable price.
However, if the other party is really from Hongye Ridge, then he can get more.
It would be even better if the other party was worried about his reporting. At that time, he could gain more benefits for the sect.
In short, he prioritized personal interests while also being willing to take into account sectarian interests.
But now, not only was he caught, but his sect was also about to be implicated, which he could not tolerate.
Seeing that he had completely given up, Yong Heng thought for a moment and sent out his divine sense, "Master Qu Ling, what do you think?"
"I'll leave it to you," Qu Jianlei replied. "I'll copy one copy of the divination book, and we'll split the rest in half."
"The key is that the news cannot be leaked in the short term... This is the unanimous demand of both you and me."
"Understood," Immortal Yongheng replied with his spiritual sense, and then looked at Immortal Wuyou, "In addition to the divination technique, you also need compensation!"
"Are you going to talk to me or Sanshi?"
Immortal Wuyou remained silent. When he saw the other party stand up and leave, he said, "Of course I'll talk to you!"
He is not crazy. If he talks to Sanshi, a petty person, not only will he have to bleed a lot of money, but he will also be hated after paying the money.
In short, Immortal Wuyou was greatly embarrassed this time, but fortunately Yongheng did not insist on asking for the sect's divination skills.
Otherwise, he would really have to die to atone for his sins.
He used the divination techniques he had collected from other sources and paid a large sum of spirit stones before he was able to escape.
The old man Yongheng was not a good person either. He guessed his wealth almost exactly and emptied out most of his property in one go.
Fortunately, the other party did not take away the magic weapons that Immortal Wuyou carried with him.
To be honest, the other party did a pretty good job in this regard.
In the world of immortal cultivation in Zhongzhou, confiscating the magic weapons of losers is not an uncommon phenomenon.
After the group walked out of the manor, they were all a little dejected and no one wanted to talk.
In the flying boat, Kun Xiu Jindan spoke up, "Master, I think something is wrong... The master seems to be hiding from Daye City."
No matter who you look at it from, Claire and her gang are quite powerful.
There are at least three True Immortal forces. Why don’t they contact Daye City directly, but instead ask the Five Friends Alliance to come forward?
So she thought that this group of people might really come from Hongye Ridge - at least, the suspicion has not been completely ruled out.
Wuyou Zhenxian could understand what she meant, "What do you want to do?"
“At least… go and inform Daye City,” Kun Xiu Jindan knew that his master also had connections in Daye City.
"If we are worried about the Five Friends Alliance causing trouble, we can also report it to Pang Xingcheng."
The people in Daye City who were openly searching for Hongye Ridge mainly relied on the East China Sea and were the first to get a lot of information.
By now, other first-tier cities in Zhongzhou have also heard about it, but no one has taken any action.
In the final analysis, the distance is too far and it is beyond our reach. There is no need to put too much effort into something that is just a figment of our imagination.
However, if someone who looks like someone from Hongyeling really appears and Daye City is unaware of it, other cities would not mind competing for him.
Immortal Wuyou thought about it and finally shook his head, "Forget it, we can ask Yongheng to make the decision... It's not something we can interfere with."
Regardless of whether that group of people came from Hongye Ridge or not, there was no doubt that they had a very good relationship with the Five Friends Alliance.
The combination of these two forces is definitely not something that the Jinxia Sect can touch.
In fact, he was still a little confused in his heart: Was that kind of powerful lightning magic emitted by the formation or by the Nascent Soul Thunder Cultivator?
If it was emitted by a thunder cultivator, there is an 80% chance that these people came from Hongye Ridge - there is a Nascent Soul thunder cultivator in that force.
However, it is enough for him to know this guess himself, there is no need to tell others.
This trip to Daye City was really a complete loss of face and dignity.
The good thing is that the two sides did not fall out in the end, and if they make efforts to make amends in the future, the relationship may warm up.
But if we hold on to it, not only will it affect the advancement of the Jinxia Sect, but we won't even be able to guarantee the resources to fight against the demons in the future.
The risk is too great for him to bear.
At the same time, Yongheng was not in a hurry to leave. After he divided the spoils with Qu Jianlei, he took the initiative to inquire.
"You said earlier that Hongyeling didn't want to be exposed in the short term. When do you plan to publicly debut in Zhongzhou?"
"It depends on the situation," Qu Jianlei said. "There are a lot of inconveniences, so we'll put it off for as long as we can."
"But don't worry. Since we have agreed to authorize the Five Friends to act as our agent, we will not change our mind unless it is absolutely necessary."
"I'm not worried about that," Immortal Yongheng shook his head, "I'm just wondering, when will you return to Dongsheng to take charge?"
He did not doubt the abilities of the Yuanying in Hongye Ridge, but the problem was... the other party had too many sensitive resources.
In this situation, if there is no one in charge for a long time, it will easily cause unnecessary chaos.
Qu Jianlei thought that this guy was still trying to find out indirectly about how he traveled to Zhongzhou.
But this is also human nature, and the other party was very cooperative in the treatment of Immortal Wuyou just now.
So he asked with a smile, "Are you so anxious for me to come back?"
Immortal Yongheng hesitated for a moment before speaking slowly, "I heard that you are somewhat interested in the Star Palace?"
Qu Jianlei was stunned for a moment, then nodded slowly, "I have a little bit, can Brother Yongheng teach me something?"
"I wonder what you want to know?" Immortal Yongheng replied seriously, "I am in the Star Palace and have two good friends."
What Qu Jianlei wanted to find out most was naturally the old stone jar, but there was no need to make this matter known to everyone.
He could sense the extraordinary nature of the stone jar, and naturally other people could sense it as well. There must be many masters in the world of cultivating immortals.
So he pondered and said, "I heard that there are many treasures in the Star Palace. How can outsiders get them?"
