Chronicles of Celestial Origins

The two of them couldn't reach within a stone's throw, so Jiang Yuhuan spoke again: "Why should I have some credit for getting that Magic Bell Flower? How about even if the merit and demerit are equal?"

Nangong Feiyue had a sullen face and said nothing.

The two of them walked past a shop one after another, when Yin Qingyuan came out. Seeing the two of them walking side by side, he smiled slightly and greeted them: "Junior brother Jiang, fellow Taoist Nangong, you are also out to visit the shop. "

Nangong Feiyue smiled at him and walked into the shop.

Jiang Yuhuan did not follow up.

Yin Qingyuan smiled and said: "Junior Brother Jiang, it's not me who disturbed you! Look at fellow Taoist Nangong, he doesn't seem very happy. Why did you provoke her?"

Jiang Yuhuan smiled helplessly and said, "Only women and boys are difficult to raise."

"What's wrong with you guys? Junior Brother Jiang, you have to seize the opportunity!"

"It's just a small misunderstanding, it's not a big deal."

The two chatted and walked away side by side.

In the shop, Nangong Feiyue saw the two people walking away, feeling slightly relieved but also a little angry.

The apology with a playful smile was not sincere at all. When she thought of that day, her heart was filled with confusion, joy and anger.

Tang Ning visited dozens of shops until the sky turned slightly white before returning to Yaxing Inn.

In the room, Yin Qingyuan had already returned and was sitting cross-legged, closing his eyes and practicing Qi.

Seeing him coming back so late, Yin Qingyuan opened his eyes and asked, "Junior brother Tang, what took you so long? What's the gain?"

Tang Ning responded: "It's just a casual look. I can't say what I gained. I have gained some knowledge! I didn't expect that there are so many types of spiritual weapons in the world, and their functions cover almost all aspects. We are trapped in Xingang, and we are really looking at the sky from the bottom of a well."

Yin Qingyuan said: "My knowledge has greatly increased this time! This Kongming Island is not even a big island in Qinghai. The various objects dotted in the Chamber of Commerce and Market made me a little dazzled. If it were inland of Qingzhou, it would be I don’t know how grand it is. I must go and see it if I have the chance.”

"Didn't Senior Brother Jiang go to the store to have a look?"

Yin Qingyuan said with a smile: "Junior brother Jiang was accompanying fellow Taoist Nangong to visit the market! But I was disturbed."

Tang Ning said, "Oh? If that's the case, it seems like I have to congratulate Senior Brother Jiang for getting this beauty back in his arms."

Jiang Yuhuan smiled and said, "It's not what you think. Fellow Taoist Nangong and I just met by chance. I had some misunderstandings with her before, and I wanted to clarify them, so we walked together for a while."

The three of them chatted for a while. Around 10 o'clock in the morning, there was a knock on the door outside. Pan Chengyuan came in and said, "Uncle Peng passed the order and set off."

Several people then left the house and left the city walls together with the other disciples. The Aurora Boat carried everyone into the sky and headed toward the southeast.

Everyone sat cross-legged on the Dharma boat, and Yin Qingyuan asked: "Uncle Master, have you gained anything from this trip? Have you reached an agreement with them?"

Peng Wanli replied: "We are here to do business, don't be so anxious. As the saying goes, when you shop around, you have to look more and compare to know the pros and cons."

"Where is our next stop? Huangyi Island?"

Peng Wanli nodded.

Tang Ning asked: "Are there no other forces occupying the entire Kongming Island except the Yaxing Chamber of Commerce? Why not ask other sects or chambers of commerce?"

Peng Wanli said: "There is no Xuanmen sect stationed on Kongming Island. There are only Yaxing Chamber of Commerce and Tianquan Chamber of Commerce and some powerful cultivating families. Tianquan Chamber of Commerce is not responsible for the breeding and sale of spiritual animals, and those cultivating families themselves rely on The two major chambers of commerce will survive, so they have no choice.”

The Aurora Boat traveled for more than ten days, and the land under our feet gradually disappeared, and a blue sea in the distance appeared in our field of vision. After traveling for several more days, we finally sailed out of Kongming Island, with endless blue sea and blue sky as far as the eye can see.

……………………

Xingang, Wu State, a deserted wilderness, a pavilion by the lake.

Two men were sitting opposite each other, playing chess.

He has kind eyebrows and a kind face, and his beard and hair are all white.

One person has eagle eyes, thin lips, and sinister eyes.

The two of them were Wu Zhengping, the headmaster of the Blood Bone Sect, and Mo Daode, the headmaster of the Crescent Moon Sect.

Tens of feet away from the pavilion, several men were guarding with lowered hands.

In the distance, rays of light shot out and landed in front of the pavilion, revealing the figure of a short, fat man with a fat head and big ears. He was Zheng Jiehuai, the headmaster of the Youmei Sect.

"We have been together for a long time, my two Taoist friends." Zheng Jiehai sat down beside the two of them and said.

Wu Zhengping nodded slightly at him, while Mo Daode ignored him, as if he hadn't seen him. He held the white chess piece in his hand and looked down at the chess game, frowning and thinking in silence. After a long time, Fang landed on the chessboard.

After a game of chess, Mo Daode was defeated at a glance. He took out a storage bag and handed it to Wu Zhengping.

"Concession." Wu Zhengping took the storage bag and said with a slight smile: "This time I invited two Taoist friends to come here all the way to discuss the next step with you. I got the news that Xuanmen has sent a team. The purpose of going to the islands is to get a share of our spiritual beast breeding industry. What do you two think about this?"

Zheng Jiehuai said: "I also heard the news and was just about to talk to two fellow Taoists. It's okay if Xuanmen just wants to develop spiritual beast breeding. I'm afraid their purpose is impure and not just for their own development. I'm worried. They will sabotage it and try to drain us out of the fire."

"If they can give up more benefits and persuade the several chambers of commerce that provide us with spirit beast cubs to provide them with spirit beast cubs from now on, then we will be kicked out. This section has to be Defend."

Wu Zhengping said: "It is precisely because of this that I invited the two Taoist brothers here. Although we have established a foothold in Xingang, it may not be so in the eyes of the outside world. In their eyes, we are still hiding in deep ravines and lurking in the dark. If you shrink your head, you may be defeated by Xuanmen one day."

"In this case, if Xuanmen goes to negotiate with them and offers more benefits, they might kick us away. Those monks from the Chamber of Commerce have always been unkind and only seek profit. Regardless of Xuanmen's reputation, , its prestige in the outside world is beyond our comparison.”

Mo Daode said: "If this is the case, we can only fight to the death with them. We will be divided. We have worked hard, and as soon as we get a little better, they want to pick peaches. There is no such truth in the world."

Zheng Jiehuai said: "We can no longer hesitate about this matter. We should take countermeasures immediately. Otherwise, once Xuanmen reaches an agreement with the merchants, we will be in a very passive situation."

Wu Zhengping asked: "Do you have any good ideas, Fellow Daoist Zheng?"

Zheng Jiehuai said: "This matter should be carried out in three steps. The first step is to send people to contact those chambers of commerce to stabilize them. It is a matter of pros and cons. As long as the chamber of commerce does not agree, there is nothing Xuanmen can do. This is the best policy. Of course, we can’t completely count on those in the Chamber of Commerce, we must be fully prepared.”

"The second step is to send people to negotiate with the Xuanmen people and make our attitude clear. If Xuanmen tries to manipulate this matter, we will not hesitate to fight. With the strength of our three sects, Xuanmen We are only five to five years old, so I don’t think they will really fight us to the death for these interests.”

"The third step is to base ourselves on war. Fight first and then talk. Only when we beat them painfully can we negotiate peace. Only then can our threats be effective."

Wu Zhengping and Mo Daode both nodded slightly.

Wu Zhengping said: "What Fellow Daoist Zheng said is exactly what I want. On top of that, I have another suggestion. I want my two fellow Daoists to help me capture the Qingyang Sect's camp first and occupy their teleportation array as a bargaining chip to force them to negotiate."

"If they don't allow it, we will destroy this formation. The other end of the formation is occupied by the Canhua Sect, and we can't use it anyway. For us, occupying this formation will neither provoke Xuanmen to fight, nor show any With enough strength, it can also be used as a bargaining chip in exchange. It can be said that it kills three birds with one stone."

Mo Daode frowned and said, "Will this make the Canhua Sect unhappy? If they send someone over there, it will be difficult for us to resist."

Wu Zhengping said: "We are killing the disciples of the Yang Sect. What does it have to do with the Canhua Sect? The teleportation array is just a bargaining chip in negotiations. We don't really want to destroy it."

Zheng Jiehuai said: "What Wu Daoyou said is reasonable. Occupying the teleportation array is indeed a good bargaining chip, but there are also powerful enemies within our jurisdiction who are eyeing them. If we cannot attack for a while, we are afraid that the Ganyi and Shuiyun sects will attack the mountain gate of our sect. We finally have a base and have been operating for such a long time. If the mountain gate is breached, the loss will be too great. This matter needs to be dealt with slowly. "

Wu Zhengping said: "You don't need to worry about this. I have a high-level insider hiding inside Qingyang Sect. He can help us open the defense formation of Qingyang Sect's camp."

Zheng Jiehuai and Mo Daode looked at each other, both a little surprised. It should be known that the Qingyang Sect camp was guarded by the Master of Qingxuan Hall and the Master of Jie Miyuan. Wu Zhengping's detailed arrangement could actually obtain the array disk from them. Opening the formation, one can imagine that this person has great magical powers and must be the most elite disciple within the Qingyang Sect.

Mo Daode asked: "Is the person Wu Daoyou mentioned is the person who opened the Xuanyue Mountain Spiritual Mine Array for us?"

Wu Zhengping nodded slightly: "Yes, it is this person."

Zheng Jihuai asked doubtfully: "With Shen Wenze and Zhao Gong guarding him, can he do it?"

Wu Zhengping said: "This man has great supernatural powers and has been hiding in the Qingyang Sect for many years. To be honest, although I have been in contact with him, I still don't know his specific identity. I only know that he is a disciple of the Qingyang Sect. , there is almost nothing he can’t do within the Qingyang Sect.”

Zheng Jiehuai said in surprise: "The Qingyang Sect actually hides such a number one person and has such ability. It's really incredible."

Wu Zhengping said: "I have secretly followed him several times, trying to find out his identity, but he got away with me every time. This person behaves mysteriously and has weird origins. Qingyang Sect's internal investigations over the years have not found him out. You two. Fellow Taoist, you only need to wait for my news, and when the time comes, you can defeat the Qingyang Sect camp in one fell swoop.”

Mo Daode said: "Since Wu Daoyou can solve the defense problem of the large formation, we are naturally willing to help you."

The three of them talked for a long time, then each turned into light and left.
