Please show your spirit to our ancestors

Chapter 151 Fairy, please respect yourself

……

Same time period.

A sword-shuttle-shaped treasure boat, only six or seven feet long, pierced through the gale layer and arrived above the Qingyu Cliff like a sharp sword drawn from its sheath.

Chen Ningtai, who had heard the news and was waiting outside the main gate of the house, looked up.

The lines of the treasure ship are smooth and gorgeous. Every curve on the hull looks very pleasing to the eye. It is inlaid with blue and white textures. The patterns are simple but elegant. You can tell at a glance that it is a carefully designed one.

On the treasure boat, a flag fluttered in the wind. The intricate golden texture on the surface of the flag outlined a faint flower pattern. It was the flag of the Wanhua Palace, one of the three major sects of the Great Wu Kingdom.

On both sides of the bow, there is a blooming blue lotus logo with sword-shaped petals.

There is no doubt that this is the treasure ship of the Qinglian Sword Pavilion of Wanhua Palace.

Chen Ningtai's expression became solemn, and he bowed and said in a loud voice: "Chen Ningtai, the head of the Cangyi Chen family, respectfully welcomes the Qinglian Pavilion Master to come."

He received a message that Fairy Yu Lian of Qinglian Sword Pavilion first went to Tianjian Peak to pay a visit to Master Taiyue, and then prepared to come to Chen's in person to express her gratitude for Chen's support for Si Jianli and others.

Chen Ningtai naturally attached great importance to the visit of the Jindan cultivator, and some core members of the family followed him.

Subsequently.

Under the personal guidance of Chen Ningtai, the sword-shaped treasure boat docked at the bluestone square of the main residence.

In the last war, the entire Bluestone Square suffered great damage. However, in just one year, the site had been leveled again and paved with large slabs of bluestone, making it look brand new.

When the treasure ship came to a steady stop and the hatch opened, Si Jianli, Kou Qianjue and Lu Qingyao flew down first.

Then, a fairy in a light blue gauze skirt gracefully floated down.

She was wearing a gauze skirt that swayed in the wind, her skin was as smooth as snow, and her steps were as graceful as an immortal, pure and ethereal, yet there was a hint of solemnity in her appearance.

Good guy!
Lu Qingyao and other disciples were secretly shocked. How could the master use such a big move right at the start?

They were very aware of the master's charm. Many Jindan cultivators from Jindan families were also conquered by the master's charm, including the third ancestor of Lu Qingyao's family, Lu Jianhan, who was known as a genius.

It's a pity that they all know that although the master likes to exude charm and make people fall in love with him, he has never been truly attracted to anyone. Many people even suspect that Fairy Yulian likes True Person Hongfu, the master of Wanhua Palace.

Chen Ningtai was slightly distracted when he saw this, but he recovered in the blink of an eye and saluted with a neither arrogant nor humble attitude: "Ningtai greets Senior Yulian."

Then she bowed to Si Jianli and the other two behind her.

"Hello, Junior Sister Jianli, Junior Sister Qianjue, Junior Sister Qingyao."

"Master Ningtai, there is no need to be so polite." Fairy Yulian said calmly, "I am here to thank your family for rescuing my three inferior disciples."

After some pleasantries.

The Chen family invited the Qinglian Sword Pavilion people into the Chen family's main residence.

After entering the main residence, the knowledgeable Fairy Yulian was stunned when she saw the five tall Five Elements Towers. Her clear and beautiful eyes were filled with surprise and astonishment, and even her steps stopped for a moment.

Is this a joke?

Isn’t this the foundation-building family?

Even the vast majority of Jindan families cannot afford to build a Five Elements Tower with all five elements, right?

Although she had received battle reports and knew that the Chen family was very strong, the battle reports would not reveal the specific situation of the Chen family.

When she was in the sky just now, because the Chen family's main house and its surroundings were always shrouded in clouds and mist, it was difficult to perceive what was going on inside unless she deliberately used magic to disperse the clouds and mist, or used her huge spiritual sense to spy.

However, using spiritual sense to spy on other people's families is a very impolite and even hostile behavior, which will lead to all kinds of adverse consequences.

She came to express her gratitude, so she would naturally not do such a thing.

Si Jianli and the others were also secretly observing the changes in their master, and found that her pretended dignified temperament was instantly broken by 30%, and her eyelids twitched slightly, and they all secretly exclaimed in pleasure.

Thinking back to the beginning, they were also shocked by Chen's actions all the way here, and now it was the Master's turn to enjoy himself.

What's more.

In their hearts, the three of them did not quite support their master bullying Senior Brother Ning Tai.

Senior Brother Ning Tai is a decent and mature person, thoughtful and considerate. He is also a rare gentle gentleman, and everyone has a good impression of him.

Seeing that their master was almost defeated, they naturally felt relieved for Senior Brother Ning Tai.

"Senior Yulian." Chen Ningtai said modestly, "The Five Elements Towers in our house are all simplified basic versions, and their power is far less than that of the real Five Elements Towers."

Hear the words.

Fairy Yulian then breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that this made more sense.

But with her strength, she can naturally feel the power contained in these five Five Elements Towers. Even the so-called basic version is definitely not simple.

The Chen family's background far exceeded her expectations.

After Chen Ningtai took the guests on a tour, he invited everyone into his Forget-Sorrow Garden, where he held a banquet to entertain the distinguished guests from the Green Lotus Sword Pavilion. The dishes served were naturally some spiritual vegetables grown by his own family, spiritual fish caught from the sea, meat of ferocious beasts hunted in the Southern Wilderness, and so on.

Of course, there are also freshly produced Qingling Daoyou from Qiuhu Villa. The meat of this fish is delicate and delicious, and has a light taste of green lotus. Even Chen Xuanmo's master, Master Chiyang, liked it very much.

With Chen Ningtai's neither arrogant nor humble hospitality, the welcoming banquet was a great joy.

However, Fairy Yulian was a little puzzled.

At first, she used the charm of a dignified fairy, but Chen Ningtai remained unmoved. Then, she changed to a slightly more enchanting type, but he still watched her with his eyes and nose, and remained calm.

After changing into five or six different styles of temperament, Chen Ningtai remained calm.

How could she have expected that, firstly, Chen Ningtai was so focused on his career that he had never thought about love between men and women; secondly, he had been beaten up by Master Taiyue in a domineering fairy way and warned not to have any affairs.

Are you kidding? Chen Ningtai has seen Master Taiyue show his power many times. How dare he defy Master Taiyue's iron fist?

With his current physique, he is not strong enough to withstand a punch from someone else.

Also.

After the meeting today, I was beaten up twice by my father for no reason, and just got some compensation from my eldest son Chen Daoling. How could I have any distracting thoughts now?
In fact, Chen Ningtai had a hard time enduring the various charming powers emitted by the Jade Lotus Fairy in various ways.

If he could defeat Fairy Yu Lian, he would have done it long ago.

Now he could only complain silently in his heart, Fairy, please respect yourself, I, Chen Ningtai, am not that kind of person.

Fortunately, his acting skills have greatly improved now, and even if he is feeling mixed emotions, Chen Ningtai can still maintain a calm appearance.

Faced with Chen Ningtai's stubborn resistance, Fairy Yu Lian felt frustrated.

Just when he was about to steel himself and use his ultimate move, his disciple Si Jianli finally couldn't stand it anymore, coughed twice and said in a voice transmission: "Master, please don't forget your business."

Business?

Yes, I'm here to do business.

Fairy Yulian took out a green sword talisman and a token in the shape of a green lotus petal and handed them to Chen Ningtai: "Master Ningtai, to express our gratitude to your family, please accept this sword talisman and green lotus sword token."

Chen Ningtai's expression suddenly brightened, and there was a look of surprise in his eyes.

He did not refuse and directly put away the sword talisman and the Qinglian sword order: "Thank you, Senior Yulian."

Are you kidding? This Green Lotus Sword Talisman is a talisman.

He had heard Si Jianli say that she had severely injured Xueyu with the help of a Green Lotus Sword Talisman, which shows how powerful this thing is.

What Chen lacks most now is these powerful life-saving trump cards that can fight against Jindan cultivators. The Qinglian Sword Order is even more precious. Anyone holding this Qinglian Sword Order can ask Qinglian Sword Pavilion to help within the scope of their ability. This is an extremely useful strategic resource that may not be bought with 100,000 spirit stones.

As for the remuneration for Chen's two repairs and searches for the Green Lotus Sword Boat, that was part of normal business and mission dealings, and Si Jianli had paid it off by sending spirit stone tickets through the sect half a year ago.

Seeing this, Fairy Yulian felt upset again.

She, the charming and unparalleled Fairy Yu Lian, is not as valuable as these two things in the eyes of Chen Ningtai?

She was about to do something else, but Si Jianli coughed twice and spoke first: "Senior Brother Ning Tai, we are here to talk about something else."

"Junior Sister Jianli, please speak." Chen Ningtai quickly regained his calm and solemn expression, "As long as Chen can do it, I will never refuse."

For favors like those from Qinglian Sword Pavilion and Si Jianli, the more you sell, the better.

Especially a gifted child of destiny like Si Jianli, if nothing unexpected happens, he will be the leader of the Qinglian Sword Pavilion in the future. If they can become good friends, it can bring hundreds of years of benefits to the family.

You know, with the strength of Qinglian Sword Pavilion, there are not many times when they can use the foundation-building families. Other families, even if they want to make Qinglian Sword Pavilion owe them a favor, may not have the opportunity.

"I saw Chen Xintao from your family before and I liked him very much. I wanted to take him in as my disciple. I have never taken in a disciple before, so Xintao can be considered my first disciple." Si Jianli said directly without beating around the bush.

"Xin Tao?"

Chen Ningtai was slightly stunned.

His family is under the jurisdiction of the Yunyang Sect. Why did they suddenly come to his house to recruit disciples? He didn't think Xin Tao could be so charming.

Although Xin Tao has four spiritual roots of gold, water, wood and fire, and is considered a genius in the eyes of ordinary families, and can also make a place for himself in the sect, but in the eyes of Si Jianli, who has three spiritual roots, he is probably just an ordinary person, right?

However, after a brief thought, he understood.

The main influence of Wanhua Palace is concentrated in the north of the Great Wu Kingdom, but there are also scattered families supporting it in the inland areas, especially in Donghai County, where 20 to 30% of the area is directly under the jurisdiction of Wanhua Palace.

The Chen family occupied Linhaiwei, which was considered half of the power of Donghai County. They accepted disciples from the Chen family, most of which was meant to win them over.

Chen Ningtai pondered for a moment and said, "Is it Junior Sister Jianli's own idea to accept Xin Tao as her personal disciple, or...?"

As he spoke, he looked directly at Fairy Yu Lian.

Fairy Yulian frowned slightly.

If an ordinary foundation-building family could have a disciple with four spiritual roots become Si Jianli's disciple, especially as the first disciple, they would definitely agree faster than anything else. Why did Chen Ningtai still look frowned and pondering?

She was confused and a little depressed, but she still smiled and said directly: "It is Jianli's idea, and it is also my idea. In fact, it is not wrong for Patriarch Ningtai to understand it as Wanhua Palace's idea."

Chen Ningtai was already sure that this was the decision made by Wanhua Palace.

With the potential and ability that Chen has shown now, he is undoubtedly a hot commodity. If we make good investments and build good relationships with him now, it will have a positive impact on the layout and influence of Wanhua Palace in marginal areas such as Donghai County and Hedong County.

Of course, this is a mutually beneficial thing.

Strengthening the bond and connection between Chen and Wanhua Palace will also be of great benefit to himself.

As for the attitude of Yunyang Sect, there is no need to worry.

Wanhua Palace is a neutral force among the three major sects. They are accustomed to recruiting disciples from all over the country. Correspondingly, Yunyang Sect or Wuhen Mountain can also recruit male disciples within the sphere of influence of Wanhua Palace.

Therefore, even if some members of the Chen family joined Wanhua Palace, it would not be a big problem.

Of course, Wanhua Palace basically recruits female disciples across regions, but they "believe" that the Chen family currently does not have any suitable girls with four spiritual roots, so they make an exception and recruit Chen Xintao.

This is also the reason why the number of female disciples in Wanhua Palace far exceeds that of male disciples.

Previously, Gao Peilian intended to recommend her granddaughter Chen Wenjing to join the Wanhua Palace. Unfortunately, Si Jianli and her two daughters were captured by Master Taiyue and taken to Tianjian Peak for recuperation before they had even stayed at the Chen family for two days. They did not know that the Chen family had a hidden poisonous spirit root seedling.

however.

Chen Ningtai did not agree immediately, but after thinking for a moment, he said: "The Dugu clan of Donghai has fled now, and there are many power vacancies in Donghai County. I wonder what Wanhua Palace is thinking now?"

Fairy Yulian's eyes widened immediately.

She didn't expect that Chen Ningtai not only fell into consideration, but also started bargaining.

Does he want Wanhua Palace to support Chen family in expanding territory in Donghai County?
All of a sudden.

Fairy Yulian also began to take things seriously, returning to the thoughtfulness and dignity of a true Golden Core Master: "Master Ningtai, we in Wanhua Palace adhere to the principle of neutrality. We cannot openly support your Chen family in launching a family civil war in the Great Wu Kingdom."

Not publicly supporting?

Chen Ningtai understood and said, "Senior Yulian is right. Our Chen family is not a greedy family. It's just that the Dugu family ran away. Now Donghai County is leaderless, which is easy to cause unrest in the county. It may even be seized by the Blood Soul Cult and become a hotbed for the Blood Soul Cult's activities."

"As a member of Donghai County, our Chen family has the power and obligation to maintain local order." Chen Ningtai said in a firm voice.

Fairy Yulian pondered for a while and said, "The families under our jurisdiction in Donghai County can not only maintain a neutral attitude and will not embarrass your actions, but will also lend a helping hand to your neutral actions."

You know, in recent decades, the entire Donghai County has been extremely exclusive to the Chen family, as if the entire Linhaiwei was excluded from the county, especially the families under the jurisdiction of Wuhenshan, who have been trying to trip up the Chen family in both open and covert ways.

She also felt that the Chen family had extraordinary potential, so she provided this disguised support plan on behalf of the sect.

"Senior Yulian." Chen Ningtai said calmly, "Donghai County is like a sieve now. It is very easy for the Blood Soul Cult to infiltrate. I feel very insecure. I hope that the Chen family can form an alliance with the families under the Wanhua Palace to fight against the Blood Soul Cult and sort out the law and order of this county."

Fairy Yulian's expression finally changed, and her voice was filled with a bit of indifference and resistance: "Master Ningtai, it is a good thing that you are ambitious, but the kindness you gave to Jianli and others is not enough to make Wanhua Palace turn against Wuhenshan in the East Sea County strategy."

What he meant was, of course, that you and I are not that familiar with each other yet, and our relationship has not reached that level. It is obviously far from enough for you to use the bond between you and Chen Xintao, a direct disciple of the Four Spiritual Roots, to bargain.

"Senior Yulian." Chen Ningtai said with a smile, "I heard that Senior Brother Kong Qing from the Qianqiu Valley lineage of the Wanhua Palace is already over 150 years old, right? I guess he will try to reach the Golden Core stage in the next 10 to 20 years."

"This is public information. What does Patriarch Ningtai mean by mentioning this?" Fairy Yulian frowned slightly, becoming a little suspicious.

"The righteous inheritance of Qianqiu Valley requires the poisonous spiritual roots among the strange spiritual roots to practice."

Chen Ningtai continued calmly.

Ever since Chen Wenjing was born, he began to focus on inquiring about information related to the inheritance of the poisonous spiritual root. The Qianqiu Valley of the Wanhua Palace was naturally also within his scope of investigation.

"The inheritance of different spiritual roots is very troublesome. First, different spiritual roots are relatively rare. Second, different spiritual roots are not like the geniuses of five elements and three spiritual roots. They can cultivate all three elements and can be adjusted with each other in the inheritance of each element. Third, the success rate of impacting the golden elixir is only 30% to 40%! Therefore, the righteous inheritance of different spiritual roots often encounters temporary interruptions."

This is also the biggest difference between the inheritance of alien spiritual roots and the inheritance of the five elements.

The golden elixir that has inherited the Five Elements Dharma usually only accepts one disciple with three spiritual roots, and then devotes all efforts to training. Only very few will accept a second one. The fear is that if they are not careful, there will be a situation where the same disciples kill each other.

However, those with different spiritual roots and golden elixirs will usually try to recruit more disciples who are qualified to inherit the mantle. Who can inherit the mantle in the end depends on who is lucky enough to form a golden elixir.

Even so, none of the last ones achieved the golden elixir, and the inheritance was temporarily cut off.

"I have a general understanding of the current situation in Qianqiu Valley. The Valley Master is now old. Senior Brother Kongqing's only sister failed in her attempt to achieve the Golden Core stage, and the younger sister behind her...had another incident like that."

"In short, considering Senior Brother Kong Qing's age, regardless of whether he succeeds or fails in his attempt to reach the Golden Core stage, it would be best for him to quickly recruit another disciple with a young poisonous spiritual root."

Speaking of which.

Chen Ningtai said calmly: "It just so happens that we have a young child in our family who has a relatively rare poisonous spiritual root."

"what?"

Fairy Yulian widened her eyes and finally couldn't control her expression, revealing a look of disbelief.

Si Jianli and other girls also showed incredible expressions.

First, the genius with three spiritual roots Chen Shiyun joined the Yunyang Sect, and then there was Chen Xiuyang who had the wind spiritual root, and now there is even a poison spiritual root?

This, this, this... Is there smoke coming out of the Chen family’s ancestral tomb?
