Daqin arrests alchemists, what does it matter to me as a qi refiner?

Just then there was a knock on the door.

After Yang Ling opened the door, he saw the chief priest and the three Yin brothers and sisters. Seeing them, Yang Ling hurriedly and warmly invited them in.

"High Priest, why are you here?" Yang Ling looked at them curiously and asked.

The high priest and the Yin siblings looked at Yang Ling, and then the high priest said in a deep voice: "We plan to leave here, what are your plans for the future?"

Yang Ling frowned when he heard this and said, "High Priest, I plan to go to Xianyang City."

After hearing Yang Ling's words, the high priest couldn't help but ask in confusion: "Xianyang City? Why?"

"I have some friends over there, and I plan to go meet them." Yang Ling explained in a low voice.

"I see. Have a safe trip!" The high priest said, then turned to the Yin siblings and said, "Let's go! We should leave here."

The Yin siblings looked at the high priest and whispered, "High priest, we plan to follow Master Zhao."

"Follow him? Why?" The high priest frowned and looked at the somewhat nervous Yin siblings in confusion.

Yin Yunluo thought about it and pulled the high priest aside to explain the situation.

After hearing this, the high priest sighed helplessly: "Forget it, in this case, you should just follow Master Zhao!"

After saying this, the high priest was about to leave, but Yang Ling suddenly stopped him: "Please stay, high priest, I have something to give you."

The high priest who was called looked at Yang Ling with some confusion: "Why? What else?"

"No, I just have something I want to trouble the high priest with."

As soon as he finished speaking, Yang Ling took out two Shennong Dings and presented them to the high priest.

The high priest took a look at the two Shennong Dings, his eyes filled with excitement: "Young Master Yang, these two things are too valuable."

"I hope the high priest can find suitable successors for these two Shennong Dings." Yang Ling looked at the high priest sincerely, his eyes full of trust.

"Okay! No problem!" Hearing Yang Ling's words, the high priest nodded happily and agreed.

The high priest who received the Shennong Ding then told the Yin siblings, "Follow Master Zhao carefully. This may be your fortune in the future."

After saying this the high priest left.

A few days later, Yang Ling led everyone back to Xianyang City.

Once back in Xianyang City, Yang Ling brought everyone to his own residence.

As soon as Yang Ling returned to the city, Qin Emperor Ying Zheng and Fusu received the news. They did not expect that Yang Ling would come back with Xu Fu.

Fusu found Li Zixuan and informed him of Yang Ling's return, but Li Zixuan did not care too much.

In his opinion, no matter how strong Yang Ling is, he cannot be stronger than the power behind him.

Fusu looked at Li Zixuan with a gleam of sarcasm in his eyes.

In his eyes, Li Zixuan's confident demeanor was nothing but a joke.

Now, Yang Ling's return made Fusu and Qin Emperor Ying Zheng secretly glad, but they did not dare to express this emotion easily.

After all, Li Zixuan's strength is there, and they cannot shake it at the moment.

Fusu was thinking in his mind, but he put on a smile on his face and said to Li Zixuan: "Master Li, I want to hold a banquet to welcome Yang Ling. What do you think?"

Upon hearing this, Li Zixuan lowered his eyelids slightly, then a faint smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he looked at Fusu: "Since Master Fusu is in such a good mood, I am naturally happy to accompany you. But..." He deliberately dragged out the tone, a hint of cunning flashed in his eyes, and he glanced at Fusu.

Fusu's heart tightened. Could it be that Li Zixuan had additional requests?

He quickly asked, "Mr. Li, what do you need? Feel free to ask."

Li Zixuan laughed and said, "I just hope it will be quiet then, just the few of us."

Fusu was confused when he heard this, but then he thought that the witch clan behind Li Zixuan had always been mysterious, so it was understandable that they did not want to have too much contact with the outside world.

So he nodded and agreed: "Don't worry, I will make sure everything is arranged properly."

After that, Fusu said goodbye to Li Zixuan and hurried to the palace of Qin Emperor Ying Zheng. He reported his plan in detail to Qin Emperor Ying Zheng, who nodded in agreement: "Your idea is good, but Li Zixuan and the Wu clan behind him are not easy to deal with."

Fusu smiled and said, "Even so, I believe that the master can handle it."

Ying Zheng smiled with satisfaction when he heard this: "Since you are confident, then do as you planned."

After Fusu received the order, he immediately sent someone to invite Yang Ling.

Yang Ling, who received the invitation, also felt a ripple in his heart.

He summoned Xu Fu and asked, "Fusu held a banquet for me. Do you think there is a trick?"

Xu Fu pondered for a moment and said, "Master, this is probably a Hongmen Banquet."

Yang Ling seemed very interested when he heard this: "Oh? Then I'd like to go and take a look."

Xu Fu looked at Yang Ling and asked in confusion: "Master, why do you want to take this risk?"

Yang Ling smiled and said, "I'm very curious about what Ying Zheng and Fusu's attitude towards me is now."

After hearing this, Xu Fu fell into deep thought.

After a moment, he looked up and said, "Since Master has made up his mind, please be careful. Li Zixuan is not an easy character to deal with."

Yang Ling waved his hand and said, "Don't worry, I know what to do."

After saying this, he sent Xu Fu away and prepared to attend the banquet.

On the day of the banquet, in addition to Fusu, Qin Emperor Ying Zheng and Li Zixuan, Yang Ling also brought Xu Fu and the Yin siblings.

When they arrived at the banquet venue, Ying Zheng was already sitting on the dragon throne, with Fusu and Li Zixuan standing on his left and right respectively.

As soon as Yang Ling arrived, Ying Zheng stood up to greet him: "It is a blessing for our Great Qin that the master has returned!"

After saying this, he personally filled Yang Ling's glass with wine.

Yang Ling took the golden cup and drank it all in one gulp.

During the banquet, Ying Zheng introduced Li Zixuan to Yang Ling: "Master, this is Taoist priest Li Zixuan. He is very skilled in Taoism and has made great contributions to our Qin in exterminating the remnants of the six kingdoms."

Upon hearing this, Li Zixuan bowed to Yang Ling and said, "Greetings, Master Zhao."

Yang Ling replied, "Master Li, you are too polite." He was secretly alert in his heart. Although Li Zixuan seemed polite, he was actually a man of great potential.

When the banquet was halfway through, Ying Zheng suddenly changed the subject: "Master, this banquet is not only to welcome you, but also to discuss something with you."

Yang Ling's expression became serious when he heard this: "I'd like to hear the details."

Ying Zheng whispered, "In the far west, a force is rising. Their cultivation system is different from ours, but their strength should not be underestimated. What's more troublesome is that they have tamed monsters that can fly in the sky."

After listening to Ying Zheng's narration, Yang Ling frowned: "If this is true, then we really need to prepare for a rainy day."

A cold light flashed in Ying Zheng's eyes: "These people are all blond and blue-eyed foreigners, not of our race, and their hearts must be different."

At this time, Li Zixuan said: "Your Majesty, why don't you let me teach the Black Ice Guard how to practice."

Ying Zheng looked at Li Zixuan: "Are you sure?" Li Zixuan nodded: "I will definitely live up to your trust."

Yang Ling silently observed Li Zixuan's actions and thought to himself: If Li Zixuan was really a descendant of Chi You, could the Black Ice Guards he taught still be loyal to the Qin Emperor?
He recalled the miserable plight of those Qigong practitioners when Chi You was resurrected, and a chill rose in his heart.

At this moment, Yang Ling suddenly said: "In fact, I also gained something from this trip."

Upon hearing this, Ying Zheng and Fu Su both showed a curious look: "Oh? What did the master gain?"

Yang Ling said slowly: "I accidentally discovered a secret realm, where I found a method suitable for anyone to practice."

Fusu's eyes lit up when he heard this: "Master, please tell me, what kind of skill is this?"

Yang Ling smiled slightly: "Don't worry, don't worry, let me explain it slowly..." He explained in detail to everyone the secrets and practice methods of this technique.

After Fusu heard this, he almost jumped up with excitement: "So, don't we all have a chance to break through to the foundation-building stage?"

Ying Zheng's face was also full of joy: "Thank you for the gift, master!" He knew very well what this technique meant to the Qin Dynasty.

Yang Ling waved his hand and said, "You're welcome. I just hope that my Great Qin can prosper forever and the people can live and work in peace and contentment."

After that, he turned his gaze to Li Zixuan: "As for the new Western forces you mentioned, I think we will be able to defeat them in the future."

Upon hearing this, Li Zixuan just smiled and didn't say much.

Afterwards, they tacitly changed the topic.

After the banquet, Yang Ling said it was late and he wanted to leave.

Li Zixuan also took the opportunity to suggest leaving.

As the two of them walked out of the palace together, Li Zixuan suddenly summoned a black shadow.

Seeing this, Yang Ling stared at Li Zixuan and the black shadow with a stern expression.

The black shadow exuded the aura of Chi You, and soon Chi You's voice was heard: "You have repeatedly ruined my good deeds, do you want to be my enemy?"

Yang Ling said calmly: "I don't want to be your enemy, but you and your people are asking for too much."

Chi You's clone said angrily: "My clan is the master of this world!"

Yang Ling shook his head and said, "Heaven and earth give birth to all things, and there is no distinction between high and low. I understand the principle that the winner is the king and the loser is the enemy, but the world is so vast and the heavens are so vast, there is really no need for you and me to fight."

He paused and continued, "The land of the West is vast and boundless. Your fight with the Yellow Emperor was only over territory. A thousand years have passed. Why not make peace?"

Chi You's clone sneered and said, "Do you think I will agree? Not only will I become the ruler of this land, but the land in the west will also belong to me!"

Hearing this, Yang Ling said with a firm look: "If that's the case, then let's fight!"

As soon as he finished speaking, there was a deafening bang.

It turned out that Chi You's clone could no longer suppress his anger and turned into a ball of inky black mist and pounced towards Yang Ling.

In an instant, a strong wind blew up, and a cold and terrifying atmosphere filled the sky and the earth.

This sudden change made Yang Ling's face change.

Chi You, this powerful man who has been in power for thousands of years, is indeed extremely ferocious once he starts fighting.

However, Yang Ling, who had already broken through the realm, was not afraid of this.

"Humph!"

Yang Ling snorted coldly, and as he waved his hand, endless thunder power gathered and turned into a sharp thunder sword, which slashed out suddenly.

In an instant, his attack collided with Chiyou's attack.

Both of them were extraordinary people, and the power of just one blow was enough to shake the entire sky.

"boom!"

With a loud bang, the two men took several steps back at the same time.

There was a flash of surprise in Yang Ling's eyes. He didn't expect Chi You to be so powerful.

Chi You was even more shocked. Although he knew that Yang Ling was strong and could challenge opponents of higher levels, he never thought that the other party's body was even stronger than his.

Not daring to be negligent in the slightest, Chi You's clone launched another fierce attack on Yang Ling.

At this moment, Li Zixuan's eyes were almost bulging out of his head due to nervousness. He never expected that in just over half an hour, Yang Ling could fight with Chi You's clone for dozens of rounds and not lose at all.

If Yang Ling wins, won't his mission be a complete failure?
Thinking of this, Li Zixuan clenched his fists tightly, wishing he could rush forward to help immediately.

However, he was still rational and knew that rushing forward now would be a futile act.

"Swish!" Chi You's clone tightly grasped the long spear in his hand, and the tip of the spear burst into a cold light, like the fangs of a poisonous snake, and stabbed towards Yang Ling fiercely.

Seeing the attack coming, Yang Ling immediately concentrated and calmed his mind. A purple dragon shadow slowly emerged behind him.

In an instant, the long sword carrying the phantom of a dragon flew out and collided violently with the long spear in the hand of Chi You's clone.

"boom!"

A violent explosion sounded, and Yang Ling and Chi You's attacks disappeared into the void in an instant.

The two of them stood still and stared at each other.

A solemn look appeared on Yang Ling's face. He obviously didn't expect that one of Chi You's clones would be so powerful.

Chi You's eyes flashed with a sharp light. He didn't expect that Yang Ling, who had just entered the Jindan stage, would be so difficult to deal with.

Both sides became extremely cautious.

At this moment, Li Zixuan seized the opportunity and immediately threw out his magic weapon, intending to use Xu Fu and others to restrain Yang Ling.

However, his calculations were wrong.

Just when the magic weapon was about to capture Xu Fu and others, Yin Yunluo suddenly took out the Shennong Ding.

Li Zixuan was extremely shocked. He never expected that Yin Yunluo actually possessed such a treasure.

However, Li Zixuan could no longer care about that. He took a step forward, exuding a strong murderous aura, and swung the long sword in his hand, cutting through the air and heading straight for Yin Yunluo.

"boom!"

In an instant, Li Zixuan's sword light collided with Yin Yunluo's Shennong Ding.

The two were deadlocked in the air, neither willing to give in.

In the end, Li Zixuan was unable to gain the upper hand, and his right arm was burned by the flames in the Shennong Ding.

Yin Yunluo was not feeling well either. She had just signed the Shennong Ding and was unable to fully unleash its power. This time, activating it made her blood boil.

"Li Zixuan, step back!"

Chi You's clone on the side shouted loudly upon seeing this.

At this moment, Chi You's clone's eyes were extremely sharp, as if he was ready to devour someone. He stared at Yang Ling and the others viciously, and then countless murderous auras gathered around him.

After a while, a new clone of Chi You appeared in front of everyone.

Yang Ling didn't expect that the other party actually had such ability. He didn't dare to stop for a moment, and immediately put Xu Fu and others into the mustard seed space, then kicked his feet and quickly flew away. (End of this chapter)
