Chapter 2065 Wuchen
Qu Jianlei performed very attentively, but Master Yulin continued to stare into his eyes and asked questions slowly.
"A gentleman should avoid making false statements... Senior Brother once divined for the Immortal Yongheng."
"Was it he who tricked Immortal Yongheng?" Qu Jianlei asked calmly, "But I want to ask, what is your senior brother's name?"
From the sound of his voice, he actually wanted to settle the score with the other party.
Upon hearing this, Immortal Yulin was slightly shocked for no reason - do you really need to do that?
If anyone else dared to have similar thoughts towards her senior brother, she would just sneer inwardly and would not necessarily ask or take action.
Would the dignified Third Master of the Book Pavilion care about the resentment of the Yuanying in the outer world?
But the person who said this was the master of Hongye Ridge, so she had to take it seriously.
She calmly said, "I'm just trying to predict your whereabouts. I don't mean to harm you... It's common to get paid for divination, right?"
This is true. The art of divination is difficult to learn and even harder to master. Once you have learned it, it is impossible to use it only on your family.
This is just like a weapon refiner who creates magic weapons and tools for others and makes a living by relying on his skills. It's not surprising at all.
It’s just that her senior brother was very skilled in divination and he didn’t collect spirit stones but other hard currencies.
Qu Jianlei shook his head and asked seriously, "But he is dealing with our partners and helping Tianyu..."
"If I don't ask, others will say that Hongyeling is afraid of your library!"
This statement is a bit too arrogant. Looking at the entire Zhongzhou, which force dares to say that it is not afraid of the Book Pavilion?
"Okay, it's not a big deal," Fairy Yulin really didn't dare to argue with him, "Let them solve it themselves."
She really didn't want her senior brother to face such a powerful opponent, not to mention that at this moment, Shu Ge had something to ask of Hongye Ridge.
"After he recovers from his injury, I will arrange for you two to meet and clear up the misunderstanding."
"Forget it," Qu Jianlei waved his hand and said calmly, "I'm afraid I won't be able to control myself and will want to fight as soon as we meet."
The truth is, although the two fought from a distance and didn't even feel each other's breath, cause and effect had already been established.
The key is that both of them are masters of divination, and a vague sense of cause and effect has been formed in the dark.
In this case, if he expected that the other party would not recognize him after they met, it would be an insult to his opponent.
Even a divination expert like Yongheng Zhenxian is inferior to the other party. Why does he look down on others?
"My senior brother... is a very good person," Immortal Yulin could only explain in this way, "Master Qu Ling has a deep prejudice against the Book Pavilion."
Prejudice... Qu Jianlei smiled, "What if you didn't meet us today, and City Lord Huo didn't show up?"
Immortal Yulin remained silent. Some things really cannot be taken seriously.
"Forget it, I'm too lazy to talk anymore," Qu Jianlei shook his head, "I still hope to see your treasure list."
This is the secret of my library! Immortal Yulin really didn't want to agree.
The library has been passed down for so long, and there are many things that are kept secret. There are some treasures that even she, the teacher, doesn't know about.
Even her senior brother, the Third Pavilion Master, did not dare to say that he understood it all.
After a pause, she said, "There are some treasures that only the Pavilion Master knows about..."
"Don't want those," Qu Jianlei said simply.
He was also the leader of the team, and he knew very well how valuable the treasure was. "It's impossible to trade it."
"But this list..." Master Yulin's eyes turned and he showed a sly smile, "It can't be given away for free!"
"You need to bring out some light-attribute spells and talismans for the trade. Sealing towns and sky-repairing formations are also fine."
"Don't even think about it," Qu Jianlei shook his head and refused without hesitation, "It's just a list, there is no substantive content."
In fact, Immortal Yulin knew it in her heart. Her high request was nothing more than a negotiation strategy.
She smiled slightly, "If that's the case, Tianyu and the others...just give them some appropriate compensation."
"Fellow Daoist, you are annoyed by their greed and bullying. Aren't you the same as them? Don't do to others what you don't want done to you!"
Qu Jianlei looked at her with a strange expression, "Anyone can say this, but you... have the nerve to say it?"
Fairy Yulin was speechless and could only curse in her heart, thinking that Tianyu was too unreliable and put her in such a passive position.
But then, Qu Jianlei smiled again and said, "Forget it, I'll give the book pavilion a half-price discount."
Immortal Yulin calmed down after hearing this, then smiled slightly, "What's the difference between this and no discount? I can't afford it anyway."
"If you trust me, please give me more discounts... I will do my best to help you with the passage."
"You do know how to grasp the key points," Qu Jianlei also smiled when he heard this, "but the Hongyeling team... is not just me."
"You are the leader," Master Yulin said calmly, "so you must have enough power to make decisions."
Qu Jianlei looked at her calmly for a full half minute before nodding and speaking slowly, "Okay, I'll bet on your character."
Immortal Yulin was also staring at him, and after a long while she answered, "If you dare to gamble, I will naturally not let you lose."
I have to admit that this sounds quite responsible, worthy of the teacher of the library.
Qu Jianlei nodded slightly, "Okay, if that's the case, then let's say goodbye now."
"Wait a moment," Immortal Yulin said, "I have the list, how do I find you?"
"Just find the Immortal Yongheng," Qu Jianlei answered without hesitation.
Not many people know about the team's manor in Daye City, and as the city lord, Huo Jiujian is not in a position to act as a middleman.
Immortal Yongheng... Master Yulin's mouth twitched when he heard this. Are you doing this on purpose?
That person's whereabouts had just been predicted by his senior brother, and later someone blocked his way.
It’s hard to say whether the two have a deep hatred for each other, after all, they didn’t fight each other, but there is definitely some grudge between them.
But this is not important. Shuge is known as the Holy Mountain. If you want to find someone with relevant clues, it won’t be difficult.
Master Yulin really didn't want to show his weakness anymore, so he spoke up, "Then..."
At this moment, Qu Jianlei raised his brows and his spiritual sense probed into the distance.
Almost at the same time, Immortal Yulin also released his spiritual consciousness, with a slight frown on his face.
The next moment, she waved her hand and the gas mask disappeared.
Qu Jianlei and Qi Ya's figures suddenly flashed and disappeared in the heavy rain.
One kilometer away from them, two Yuanyings in the library were standing there, watching the three people talking.
Because of the rain, the visibility was not very good, but the two of them only dared to release a little bit of perception and did not dare to use spiritual sense to explore.
Immortal Yulin had already put up a protective shield, obviously not wanting anyone to hear their conversation.
Even though Zhang Lidong always claimed to look down on Kun Xiu, he really didn't dare to offend him easily.
Immortal Yulin is one of the five great masters of the library, and his status is only slightly inferior to the three pavilion masters. He, as a lecturer, is far from being able to rank among them.
Seeing the shield disappear, the two opponents shot away, and they came to the side of Yulin Zhenxian in a flash.
At the same time, three more flying boats appeared on the outskirts of Huangtuling.
There were more than ten people standing beside the flying boat, and just by looking at their positions, they were clearly divided into two camps.
Most of them are Golden Core, and there are a few Foundation Establishment, who seem to be helping out, and there is not a single Nascent Soul.
Not far ahead, Huo Jiujian was standing there with his hands behind his back, looking left and right, not taking the person in front of him seriously at all.
A Jindan bravely said, "City Lord Huo, we from Xiangyuan City were assigned by the Star Palace to come and investigate nearby."
This was all he dared to say. When facing the lord of a first-tier city, even an ordinary Nascent Soul cultivator had to show respect, let alone a Golden Core cultivator.
In the other group, a Jindan also spoke up, "Our city lord is here, is there anything else you need to check?"
At this moment, a figure came rushing over from far away, his body cut through the rain, and drew a long white line in the air.
The figure landed on the ground, revealing a handsome face and a white coat without a single stain of rain or mud.
The Yuanying in white clothes bowed to Huo Jiujian and said, "Xiangyuan City Wuchen greets Daye City Lord."
"Is it you?" City Lord Huo frowned slightly. He didn't care about ordinary Nascent Soul cultivators, but sword cultivators... were a bit troublesome.
He said calmly, "I have a few friends here, you can leave now."
However, Immortal Wuchen looked calm and said in a neither humble nor arrogant manner, "We came to investigate nearby on the orders of the Star Palace."
"City Lord Huo is also from the Star Palace, so he must understand the importance of this matter."
Huo Jiu couldn't help but frown when he heard this. Although being born in the Star Palace had its conveniences, it was also a shackle sometimes.
But he was not frightened by these words, so he said with a dark face, "I know my limits, you go back!"
The Yuanying in white was not frightened, and spoke calmly, "Since the city lord is trying to stop me, I can only go back and report the truth."
It’s not that he is afraid, but if the other party really dares to continue to block him, it will inevitably lead to inquiries from the Star Palace.
As long as he leaves, City Lord Huo must give an explanation for what happened here afterwards.
Moreover, this explanation must satisfy everyone, otherwise it will be difficult to escape the suspicion of "secretly hoarding rare opportunities."
Once this reputation gets out, not to mention the reaction of the Star Palace, it will also attract too much covetousness.
However, Huo Jiujian is not someone who can be frightened. Sometimes, you still have to take a gamble.
He was about to speak when suddenly two white rays of light shot out. They were Qu Jianlei and Qi Ya who had hurried back.
Seeing the two of them land, Huo Jiu nodded slightly, "Is it done?"
"Yeah," Qu Jianlei nodded, then looked at the Yuanying in white not far away, and said expressionlessly, "What happened?"
Hearing the malicious meaning in his words, Immortal Wuchen raised his brows slightly and was about to speak.
He could give Huo Jiu some face, but for the other Nascent Souls...that was really nothing.
But the next moment, his eyes turned to the distance, "This is..."
Three more white rays flashed by, and they were three more Nascent Souls.
He couldn't help but secretly complain, how many people were vying for the opportunity?
