Entering Taoism from the womb
Chapter 195 Meeting Shangguan Xue Again (1/2)
Jiang Ping'an returned to the bedroom, did not practice any more, and took out "The Roar of the Winter Night" that he bought during the day to read through it.
More than half an hour later, Jiang Ping'an finished reading "The Roar of Winter Nights".
Then, he closed his eyes and opened the panel.
Turning his eyes on [Spell], Jiang Ping'an saw that "Winter Night's Roar" had been successfully recorded on the panel.
"Winter Night's Roar" [Heavenly Level] (0/1 million).
As he filled up his proficiency points in "Winter Night's Roar", a lot of insights about "Winter Night's Roar" immediately poured into Jiang Ping'an's mind.
Lasting for about half an hour, Jiang Pingan understood "The Roar of Winter Nights".
"Roar of the Winter Night" [Heavenly Level]: The roar of the soul is emitted, and the temperature of the heaven and earth within a radius of thirty miles plummets to more than 100 degrees below zero. The sky is completely dark, and heavy snow falls, severely suppressing the spiritual consciousness. Winter nights penetrate deep into the soul, making all living beings feel lonely and depressed, and even commit suicide in despair.
However, it was not completely penetrated, and there was a thin barrier between them.
This is the gap between the Celestial Race and the Human Race. "Winter Night's Roar" is, after all, the Celestial Race's skill.
Jiang Ping'an felt that he could cast "Winter Night's Roar", but the power would be somewhat compromised.
"Try adding one million more proficiency points? As long as you understand "Winter Night's Roar" deeply enough, you should be able to break the barriers between different races' spells." Jiang Pingan thought, "But what if I add one million more proficiency points? What if it’s not enough? What if I need to add 10 million proficiency points to break the barrier?”
Now there are less than four million proficiency points left on the panel, and ten times the proficiency points cannot be added at all.
Moreover, he also needs to save three million proficiency points for emergencies.
"Alas, proficiency is not enough."
"Entering Shenyuan Ruins, you must pick the enlightenment tea leaves!!!"
After weighing it for a moment, Jiang Ping'an decided to add another one million proficiency points to "Winter Night's Roar".
A lot of profound insights about "The Roar of Winter Night" poured into Jiang Pingan's mind, and Jiang Pingan tried his best to absorb and digest it.
After one stick of incense, Jiang Pingan received the insights brought by one million proficiency points.
He opened his eyes, breathed a sigh of relief, and said to himself: "Kankan has understood it thoroughly. It seems that learning alien spells requires twice as much proficiency."
The next morning, Jiang Pingan suddenly received a message from a six-tailed white fox, saying that a human monk was urgently asking to see him outside the gate of Tianhu City.
When Jiang Ping'an heard the name, he knew that Ping'an City was looking for him if there was an emergency.
So, he quickly flew to the gate of Tianhu City and walked out of it.
"Mr. Jiang." A human monk waiting outside the city gate quickly came up to greet Jiang Ping'an and called out with a respectful salute.
Jiang Ping'an nodded slightly and asked, "Zhang Che, what's going on in Ping'an City?"
This monk named Zhang Che is the grandson of Zhang Yijie. He is a seventh-level cultivator in the Dragon Transformation Realm. He is the person responsible for contacting Jiang Pingan in Pingan City.
Jiang Ping'an was not keen on Ping An City's rights and needed to practice quietly, so he became a hands-off shopkeeper and asked Ping An City to contact him only for very important matters. Otherwise, all matters would be discussed and decided by Zhang Yijie, Qin Peiyuan and other Dharma Realm experts.
Zhang Zhe replied: "Probably because the Shenyuan Ruins were about to open, many human monks gathered in Qingqiu City and then learned about Ping'an City. Some people asked to buy the land of Ping'an City, and among them were seven or eight princes and saints from ancient aristocratic families. But "You previously stipulated that the land in Ping'an City should not be sold for another five or ten years. Several elders feel that the opportunity is not lost and want to ask you to go back and discuss it."
Jiang Pingan thought for a moment and said, "I know about this. I will return to Pingan City later."
"Zhang Che retires." Zhang Che bowed respectfully to Jiang Pingan, then took two or three steps back, and finally turned around and flew away.
Jiang Pingan turned around and returned to Tianhu City.
He first went to Lianjun Peak to find Hu Yan'er and Hu Hongzhuang's master and servant, and asked them to arrive at Shenyuan Ruins three days in advance to wait for him.
Finally, he went to Qihu Peak to pack his things.
The Shenyuan Ruins were about to open. After returning to Ping'an City to handle matters, he should go directly to the entrance of the Shenyuan Ruins instead of returning to Tianhu City.
After packing his things, Jiang Pingan went to say goodbye to the Nine-tailed Sky Fox Princess.
It turned out that the Nine-tailed Sky Fox Princess was not in Tianhu City and was entertaining other creatures who were about to enter the Shenyuan Ruins. Jiang Pingan had no choice but to leave a letter to thank the Nine-tailed Sky Fox Princess for her hospitality for more than a year.
One day later, Jiang Pingan returned to Pingan City.
Viewed from the air, Ping'an City has changed a lot from a year ago. Many new buildings have been built, including restaurants, restaurants, teahouses, shops, etc.
There were people coming and going on the streets, there were many human monks flying around in the air, and a long line of people lined up in front of the city gate to enter the city.
Ping'an City has become prosperous.
This is a miracle. In just over a year, a newly established huge city has become prosperous. Behind this is that the human race within a radius of hundreds of thousands of miles is very eager to have a powerful human city.
Jiang Pingan also entered Pingan City through the city gate, but he did not need to queue. He had a token to enter the city directly.
After entering the city, Jiang Pingan flew directly towards the city government office.
The city government office is the center of power in Ping'an City, but it is not in the center of the city, but a majestic building about fifty miles west of the east city gate.
As for the center of the city, it is the place with the strongest vitality of the world in Ping An City, and it is also the place with the highest value. About 70% of it has been auctioned off.
Jiang Pingan and Lan Yu together accounted for 50%.
As Jiang Ping'an landed in front of the city government office, the guards immediately greeted him, saluted with admiration and shouted: "Greetings, Mr. Jiang is back!"
"No need to be polite." Jiang Ping'an nodded, walked into the city government office, and walked towards the city lord's palace.
Along the way, everyone who saw Jiang Pingan immediately bowed respectfully.
Entering the City Lord's Hall, Jiang Pingan asked the officials in the hall to notify Zhang Yiji, Qin Peiyuan and other human beings to come and discuss matters.
Not long after, Zhang Yiji, Qin Peiyuan and others arrived.
"Hello, Mr. Jiang." Zhang Yiji, Qin Peiyuan and others bowed to Jiang Pingan.
Jiang Pingan stood up and smiled: "Daoyou Zhang, Daoyou Qin, Daoyou Peng..."
After bowing and calling the names one by one, he said: "Everyone, sit down and discuss matters."
After sitting down, Jiang Pingan said straight to the point: "Zhang Zhe told me that someone wants to buy land. How sincere are they?"
"Very sincere." Zhang Yiji immediately replied, "We have received them in recent days. They appreciate and support Pingan City very much."
Jiang Pingan nodded slightly and continued to ask: "How much Yuanshi are they willing to invest?"
"This..." Zhang Yiji was a little speechless.
Peng Tailai said: "It's probably more than 150,000 top-grade Yuanshi."
Peng Tailai is the descendant of the saint Peng Qingyang. Peng Qingyang was the saint who donated 50,000 top-grade Yuanshi to support Ping'an City.
Jiang Pingan thought for a moment and said, "Too little. If it doesn't exceed 300,000 top-grade Yuanshi, there's no need to disrupt our plan."
"Five or ten years later, Pingan City will only be more prosperous, and the value of land and houses will at least increase by more than ten times."
"At present, we still have plenty of Yuanshi."
Zhang Yiji said, "Mr. Jiang is right, but some of these people are young masters and saints from ancient families. If they buy the land of our Pingan City, it is equivalent to supporting Pingan City. Pingan City will be much safer, and everyone will feel more at ease living in Jiang Pingan City, which is beneficial to the development of Jiang Pingan City."
"That makes sense." Jiang Pingan asked, "How far are they from Pingan City?"
Zhang Yiji thought for a while and replied, "It seems to be quite far, and the nearest one is more than 200,000 miles away."
"Distant water cannot quench nearby fire." Qin Peiyuan said.
Others nodded in agreement.
After letting everyone digest it for a while, Jiang Pingan said: "If they insist on buying land, it's fine. Let them raise 300,000 top-grade Yuanshi, and we will set aside 5 million acres of land to sell to them. If the deal is successful, we will use this Yuanshi to upgrade the defense formation, and the remaining Yuanshi will be distributed to everyone."
"What do you think?"
Pingan City has a total of 33.75 million acres, and 5 million acres accounts for about 15% of the entire Pingan City.
In terms of the ownership of Pingan City, Jiang Pingan adopted the city-wide ownership system from the beginning, that is, all landlords and house owners own shares in Pingan City, and the number of shares is determined by the value of the land and houses.
Jiang Pingan's sharing of profits with everyone means allocating Yuanshi to all landlords and houses.
After a discussion, everyone agreed to Jiang Pingan's proposal.
After discussing the land sale, Jiang Pingan asked, "What major events have happened in Pingan City recently?"
After a moment of silence, Qin Peiyuan said, "Now that our Pingan City has initially stabilized, there have been monks moving into the city, and the monk population has exceeded one million. However, the Black Abyss River Plain alone is not enough to support our development."
"Now many monks enter the Daluo Mountains to obtain cultivation resources. We have discovered many high-value mineral veins in the Daluo Mountains."
"However, the Daluo Mountains, which stretch for 5,000 miles, are the territory of the Bashan Ape tribe."
"At present, the Bashan Ape tribe is very interested in us. Be alert, and have banned our monks from entering the Daluo Mountains. They have even formed patrols to kill any monks they find. "
"Should we drive the Bashan ape tribe out of the Daluo Mountains and make the Daluo Mountains one of our territories?"
"Now a large number of monks are eager for us to take action."
"Mr. Jiang, what do you think we should do?"
Jiang Ping'an thought for a while and shook his head and said, "It is not difficult to drive the Bashan ape tribe out of the Daluo Mountains, but it is not appropriate at the moment."
There are two demon kings in the Bashan ape tribe in the Daluo Mountains, and their strength is not very strong.
"Ping An City was just built not long ago, and it needs to lie dormant for more than a few decades, otherwise it will easily attract strong rejection from the surrounding major races."
After a pause, Jiang Ping An continued: "For the Daluo Mountains, I suggest slowly infiltrating, constantly weakening the strength of the Bashan Ape tribe, and squeezing their sphere of influence step by step. We have many human cultivators and they grow fast, and the Bashan Ape tribe cannot fight us."
"As long as their demon king does not take action, our saints do not need to take the initiative."
Hearing Jiang Ping An say this, Qin Peiyuan and others were a little disappointed, but they did not mention it again.
In fact, they asked Saint Peng Qingyang, but he did not agree.
As the top existence of the human race, it is impossible for the saint to take the initiative to fight for the cultivators below every time.
You know, as long as it is a battle of the same level, there is a huge risk of falling.
After the meeting, when Jiang Pingan was about to leave, Zhang Yijie stepped forward and said, "Mr. Jiang, there are several young masters from ancient families who want to meet you. What do you think?"
"No need to meet." Jiang Pingan refused, "I still have to prepare for entering Shenyuan Ruins."
He has decided to be a lone ranger after entering Shenyuan Ruins. The more people he knows, the more inconvenient it will be.
Zhang Yijie: "I know, I will refuse them on your behalf."
"Thank you."
Leaving the city government, Jiang Pingan flew to the center of the city and returned to his home.
He and Lan Yu occupied half of the center of the city, covering an area of up to three million acres. At present, in addition to enclosing it with a wall, they only hired people to simply build a dozen buildings.
Only the building complex where Lan Yu lived and practiced was carefully built, with array formations and so on.
In addition to the land in the center of the city, he also owned more than a dozen pieces of land in non-core areas.
When the city was first built, he and Lan Yu's contribution value was very high, adding up to 4 billion contribution value, accounting for more than all the people combined.
After flying to the mansion where Lan Yu lived and landing, several guards in the Shenzang realm in front of the gate immediately shouted to Jiang Pingan respectfully: "Welcome back to the mansion."
Jiang Pingan nodded and walked into the gate.
On the plaque hanging on the gate of this mansion, there were two big characters written-Jiang Mansion.
At present, Lan Yu is still his maid in front of outsiders, so it is impossible for her to build a mansion alone.
Not long after Jiang Pingan returned to the mansion, Lan Yu came to see him.
"Congratulations, my lord, your cultivation has improved again." Lan Yu bowed to Jiang Pingan and smiled sweetly.
Jiang Pingan smiled and said, "The heaven and earth vitality of Tianhu City is indeed very good. I have gotten some benefits. However, I also owe a favor to the Nine-tailed Heavenly Fox Princess."
Lan Yu went closer to Jiang Pingan, sniffed Jiang Pingan, and then laughed and said, "It smells like a vixen. It seems that my husband is very lucky."
"Really?" Jiang Pingan subconsciously raised his arm and smelled the clothes.
As a result, he really smelled a little bit of the strange fragrance of Hu Yan'er.
Suddenly, he felt a little embarrassed.
Lan Yu giggled at this, and then said coquettishly, "My husband, I can also warm your bed."
"Okay, you come to warm my bed tonight." Jiang Pingan said with a smile.
As he spoke, he took out 10,000 top-grade Yuanshi and gave them to Lan Yu: "I have sold the two places to enter Shenyuanxu."
Lan Yu accepted the Yuanshi, and then said, "I really don't want my husband to enter Shenyuanxu."
"I also know the dangers, but I must pick the enlightenment tea leaves." Jiang Pingan said seriously.
…
Late at night, when Jiang Pingan was practicing, he suddenly heard a gentle knock on the door.
He scanned with his spiritual sense and found Lan Yu standing outside the door.
He stopped practicing and said, "Come in."
As the voice fell, Lan Yu appeared in front of the bed: "My dear, I'm here to warm your bed."
She was wearing a goose yellow silk robe and long dress. The robe was close to her body, outlining her tall, graceful, curvy figure. Her long black hair was piled up high, combed into a complicated and gorgeous cloud bun, and she wore a few pieces of jewelry with flowing precious light.
Her beautiful face was also painted with makeup, which made her look even more beautiful. A pair of eyes were shining, revealing a dreamy color.
Although she was already a female saint, her temperament was very innocent and feminine.
"Why did you take it seriously?" Jiang Ping'an said with a bitter smile, "I never treated you as a maid."
While speaking, Lan Yu had taken off her shoes and got on the bed. She walked around Jiang Ping'an, put her jade hands on Jiang Ping'an's shoulders, and gently kneaded them: "You didn't treat me as a maid. I'm so sad."
"I treat you as a real good friend." Jiang Ping'an said.
Lan Yu hugged Jiang Ping'an's body from behind, her soft chest completely pressed against Jiang Ping'an's back: "I don't want it, I just want to be your personal maid."
"Are you really willing to do this?" Jiang Ping'an asked puzzled.
Lan Yu was silent for a while, then said: "I also know that this idea is not normal, but I like it this way. Many of my personality preferences are the opposite of my previous life."
Jiang Ping'an said: "This is not the real you. Don't talk about warming the bed in the future."
"Hate it, I've sent myself to bed, but you don't want it. I'm so embarrassed." Lan Yu snorted.
Then, she let go of Jiang Pingan and lay on her back in the bed: "Anyway, I won't leave tonight."
...
Two or three days later, several young men and young ladies from ancient families and saints who wanted to buy land agreed to Jiang Pingan's conditions, but they could not take out 300,000 top-grade Yuanshi for the time being, and said that they would raise Yuanshi to buy it after leaving Shenyuan Ruins.
A few days later, Jiang Pingan and Lan Yu set out from Pingan City three days in advance and went to the entrance of Shenyuan Ruins.
When they arrived at the entrance of Shenyuan Ruins, they found that a large number of creatures had gathered around the entrance, including the Nine-tailed Sky Fox, the Golden-winged Dapeng, the Jiaolong, the Pixiu, the Celestial Clan, the Demon Clan, the Blue Wolf, the Mountain Ape... and so on.
Of course, there were also a large number of human beings and saints.
Not long after Jiang Pingan and Lan Yu landed, the master and servant of Hu Yan'er and Hu Hongzhuang came over and saluted Jiang Pingan, saying, "Young Master Jiang."
They did not transform into humans and remained in their original form.
"Miss Yan'er, I've kept you waiting for a long time." Jiang Pingan smiled and nodded.
Hu Yan'er said, "Yan'er dare not."
At this time, a six-tailed white fox flew over and sent a letter to Jiang Ping'an: "Mr. Jiang, this is a letter from the princess."
Jiang Ping'an took the letter, opened it and took a look, then said to the six-tailed white fox: "Tell your princess that I thank her for her kindness, but Jiang has other plans. After entering the Shenyuan Ruins, if there is a chance, Jiang will repay her hospitality."
After the six-tailed white fox left, three or four groups of human beings came to invite Jiang Ping'an to form a team, but Jiang Ping'an declined.
As the time for the opening of the Shenyuan Ruins got closer and closer, more and more creatures came.
When there was only about half an hour left before the opening of the Shenyuan Ruins, three ice phoenixes and a beautiful and cold human woman carrying a long sword flew in in a high-profile manner.
Jiang Ping'an saw clearly that the human woman was Shangguan Xue.
Seeing Shangguan Xue, he was both happy and worried.
I was happy that Shangguan Xue was still alive, but I was worried that Shangguan Xue was with the three-headed ice phoenix. Maybe the demon phoenix had regained control of Shangguan Xue.
However, he did not fly over to find Shangguan Xue immediately.
First, the Shenyuan Ruins was about to open, so it was not appropriate to cause trouble; second, it would not be too late for him to find Shangguan Xue after entering the Shenyuan Ruins.
In the Shenyuan Ruins, he was confident that his strength was the strongest among the small group. If Shangguan Xue was really controlled by the demon phoenix again, he would rescue Shangguan Xue.
