Retrograde fairy way

As the smelting conference was approaching, the number of people traveling to and from Xiajing was significantly higher than before.

Chi Lian, as one of the three casting masters in the casting hall, naturally had to rush back at this time.

The reason why the casting conference was opened is to use the huge resources of the casting hall and their superb skills to show their importance to all the monks who come to watch, and also to gather more training resources for this purpose.

For this reason, Zhuliantang did not hesitate to kill other families in the empire who mastered the method of casting. Although this caused complaints, but because there was no evidence, no one dared to do anything to Zhuliantang.

What's more, even if they knew it was done by Zhuliantang, no one would stand up for the already worn-out foundry family.

Since the incident ten years ago, Chi Lian has been moody all the time. Those who know the reason will do their best and will not dare to show any mistakes, so as not to be implicated by it.

And then, four years ago, it got even worse. These people who are good at casting mostly cultivate fire attribute energy, and their personalities are irritable and irritable. Under such circumstances, no one dares to raise their eyebrows.

In this smelting meeting, Chi Lian went all out, all in order to regain the face of the failure of smelting.

Ten years ago, it was also a casting meeting. It is said that Chi Lian failed due to a mistake in a casting that was supposed to be foolproof. This also made Chi Lian a joke among visitors.

Gein, when Chi Lian was selecting and casting materials, he mixed up the materials, so that the precious materials could no longer be smelted without checking, and became a waste product.

And this incident also became an irreparable failure in Chi Lian's opinion, because making such a mistake is the last thing a caster called a master can't allow.

But such a thing happened to Chi Lian, a master who has been famous for many years, and under such circumstances, Chi Lian's dilemma can be imagined.

For this reason, not only did he not participate in the casting conference five years ago, but his personality became moody.

But his casting skills, it is said that after that incident, Chi Lian learned from the pain and honed hard, and finally made a major breakthrough before this conference. This time, I am afraid that he came here to restore his reputation ten years ago .

Chi Lian was sitting in the carriage with a gloomy face, looking at his frown tightly, it was not difficult to guess what he was thinking, it must not be a good thing.

Chi Lian, who was a little restless, was honored as a master by many monks because he had been engaged in forging for many years. Under the pampering, he had already lost the vigilance that a monk should have, even if he was a strong man in the early stage of foundation establishment.

But in such a situation, he didn't notice until the danger was approaching himself, and only had time to avoid the vital point, and cried out in pain: "No!"

Chi Lian intuited that the inner palace had been stinging, his eyes turned black, and he tried his best to mobilize the vitality in his body, jumped out of the carriage, and only then could he see the person coming.

As for the guards around him, although most of them were mid-level Qi-refining monks, and there were even a few late-level Qi-refining monks, but after plotting against Chi Lian, that man did not take advantage of the victory to chase after them, but instead chased and killed those guards.

However, after Chi Lian tried to leave many times, but was blocked by the hidden weapon he shot, Chi Lian realized that the other party actually had the intention to keep them all here.

It's just that Chi Lian, who is inexperienced in fighting, realized that the man had almost killed the guards, after all, the gap in cultivation was too great.

Not to mention giving Chi Lian a chance to talk nonsense, he directly beheaded him on the spot.

After that, the man put away the corpses of all the people present one by one, and walked away. Although there were many traces of fighting on the ground, such things happened every day in the surrounding area, so naturally no one would pay attention to them.

And in the next few days, on this road that Xia Jing must pass, several incidents happened one after another, but no one knew about it at all, because their bodies were all taken away.

And it was not until ten days later that their bodies were discovered outside Xiajing City, and those who knew them caused an uproar.

"Report to Hall Master, Master Chilian was killed on the way here, and the No. 17 shop was robbed! [-] people were killed! Many precious minerals were stolen!"

"Report to the hall master, Master Li Bashan was killed, and the No. 21 shop was robbed! [-] people were killed! Many precious minerals were stolen!"

"Hall Master..."

"Crack!"

Li Batian listened to the report of his subordinates, no matter how happy and angry he was, he couldn't help the anger in his heart, and smashed the teacup in his hand!

In the past half month, Li Batian didn't know how many teacups he had broken. At this time, he was out of anger.

First, the beloved son Li Fengyu was missing, and then three days ago, it was reported that the store under his jurisdiction had been robbed, and the body was thrown outside Xiajing City, naked and slapped in the face!How can this not make Li Batian angry?

Seeing that the casting meeting was about to be held, but at this moment, the shops under his jurisdiction were robbed, and as the main person of the meeting, he was injured and killed one after another, and the resources were even robbed, which made Li Ba How can God not be angry?

This matter must have been known to other forces in the imperial capital. If he can't solve it satisfactorily, then this casting conference will be empty talk, and his casting hall will also become the laughing stock of others. The majesty accumulated over the years, I'm afraid it will also disappear.

But at this time, there is no way to start an investigation. Since half a month ago, his second son Li Fengyu has disappeared, and the six monks under him who are behind the gas refinement have also disappeared. After many investigations, although a little trace was found , but in the end it didn't matter.

To this day, Li Batian still remembers the attitude shown by the other party when he found the upper hand, which made him dare not act rashly.

No one knows the horror of the Feng family better than him, since when he was appointed by the family as the head of the Casting Hall, he was told that he would rather mess with the Bi Chaozong than the Feng family.It can be known that this Feng family is not just the owner of the general seller, such an identity.

What's more, he has no evidence yet, only a trace of suspicion. In this regard, Li Batian has no choice but to retreat and send personnel to investigate more vigorously.

But at this time, it was the casting conference held every five years in the Casting Hall, and there were already countless people pouring into Xia Jing, more than ten times more than usual. .

By this time, he was sure that his son and the six monks had been killed. After all, the other party hadn't disclosed any news for so many days. If they arrested people, threatened them, or made any demands, he would choose to believe that his son was still alive.

And what happened one after another made Li Batian almost lose his mind. Not only did he have no news about his son, but even the people who rushed back to the main hall from various places to participate in the casting meeting were damaged one after another.

Previously, most of the people in the main hall were sent out by myself to search for suspicious persons, but the number of people who went to support them was much weaker. Unexpectedly, this negligence made the casting conference almost destroyed.

For this reason, Li Batian had to take out the treasures in the casting hall's inventory to deal with it. For this, the anger in Li Batian's heart skyrocketed.

Those are all high-quality goods that are going to be transported back to the sect. If it is not for maintaining the prestige of Zhuliantang, he will not take them out.

......

But the instigator who did this was living leisurely in the civilian area around the Casting Hall.

Due to its large population, Xia Jing was divided into noble districts, wealthy districts, and civilian districts.

But half a month ago, a small courtyard in the civilian area changed its owner.

In this regard, it did not attract the attention of the surrounding people at all, because such things happened too frequently.

There are not many people who come to Xiajing to settle down every year. As long as their identity is legal and they pay enough fees, they can move in. Of course, they can only live in civilian areas.

In addition, the new resident is just an ordinary-looking monk. It is said that he came here to settle down because he was tired of the adventurous life outside and envious of the prosperity of the imperial capital.

And the owner of this small courtyard is Wang Mo.

He also did the robbery of the resources of the Casting Hall during the past half month.

Five days ago, he came to this place, spent a sum of primordial stones, which ordinary people would not be able to earn in a lifetime, to bribe the stewards of this area, and settled down here.

Of course, he has also been investigated by the Casting Hall, but the aura he reveals is only at the third level of Qi Refining.

And those searchers, whose cultivation base was only at the sixth level of Qi refining, naturally couldn't see Wang Mo's roots.

As for Wang Mo, who only had the cultivation level of 'Third Level of Qi Refining', he would naturally not be the person to investigate in Zhuliantang.

As far as Wang Mo knows, the Casting Hall holds a casting meeting every five years, which is a means for him to demonstrate his own strength.

After that, he guarded the main road between Xiajin City and Xiajing, and ambushed and killed the people in the Casting Hall one after another.

The members of the Casting Hall, Xu Anwen, were so arrogant that as monks, they lost the most basic vigilance, and were secretly ambushed by Wang Mo one after another.

Among them are Zhuliantang, Chilian and Li Bashan, the three great masters of refining. Not only are these two people in the early stage of foundation establishment, but Xu Shi has devoted his mind to casting and refining all the year round. It's quite normal, so it saves Wang Mo a lot of effort.

And all of these people brought a lot of resources, which added a lot of money to Wang Mo's exhausted casting and refining ore.

Later, after Wang Mofu killed seven batches of people from the Casting Hall, he withdrew back to Xia Jing, and put all the corpses outside Xia Jing City.

Only then did he enter the city and tidy up his small courtyard.

He didn't know how long he would live here, so Wang Mo decided to make this place his own training and self-cultivation.

Fortunately, Wang Mo has a lot of storage bags, and the space is big enough. He purchased most of the building materials on the way here, and there are also resources supported by the people from the Casting Hall.

The noise in this casting room was quite loud, and he didn't want to be approached by people from the casting hall within a few days after moving in.

With vibration soil, it can be used to build walls and floors, which can greatly reduce the transmission of noise. Casting furnaces are used to smelt various metals that are difficult to smelt. It took Wang Mo two days of work, and Wang Mo put the two tight The house next to him was transformed into a casting room in his heart.
