Chapter 611: Spirit Contract Refining Treasure Formation

Seeing the girl confess to him like this, Unlike Ning Zhuo's eye corner twitched, and his first reaction was to turn around and leave!

Trouble.

A big trouble had taken the initiative to find him.

Unlike Ning Zhuo observed her expression and saw that although Qing Chi was looking at him with pleading and miserable eyes, there was a heroic spirit hidden between her brows, so he secretly suppressed the impulse to close the door directly.

Unlike Ning Zhuo was very worried that this action would stimulate the other party to go crazy, knock on the door, and even shout: "Open the door, open the door, you have the nerve to be treacherous, go be a male concubine, you have the nerve to open the door" kind of situation.

By then, it would be even more troublesome.

Unlike Ning Zhuo's eyes turned, quickly looking around, and he had already noticed that many people around were paying attention here, and more obscure gazes were cast here.

Unlike Ning Zhuo decided to stabilize the girl before him first.

He sighed lightly and said to Qing Chi: "Qing Chi, stop making a scene first."

"Even if we can't get along, we still have the friendship of fellow villagers."

"I will explain it to you properly."

Qing Chi immediately urged: "Then explain, say it, I'm listening."

Unlike Ning Zhuo saw that her emotions were becoming more and more agitated, so he immediately shook his head: "No, no, no, the timing is not good now, and there are many things I can't say in public."

"Okay." Qing Chi immediately said, "Let's go inside and talk!"

Unlike Ning Zhuo didn't dare to let her into the house, continuing to block the door: "I will send you a letter, saying anything here is inappropriate, after all, this is the Yang-Strengthening Courtyard."

"Perhaps, when it is convenient for you and me, we can set a time and place to talk about some things clearly."

Qing Chi widened her eyes and said urgently: "It is convenient for me now, when

are you convenient? Is tonight okay?"

Unlike Ning Zhuo sighed bitterly: "What a coincidence, I am reaching a bottleneck in my cultivation now and need to concentrate on breaking through. Qing Chi, you don't want to drag down my cultivation, right?"

Qing Chi nodded repeatedly: "Of course I don't want to. How do you want to break through the bottleneck, I can help you. Let's go inside and talk!"

Unlike Ning Zhuo waved his hands repeatedly, politely refusing, and strongly requested Qing Chi to leave first.

After several rounds of verbal negotiation, Qing Chi was blocked and felt frustrated and secretly resentful as she stared at Unlike Ning Zhuo: "Little Ma, I can go. But before I leave, I want to hear you call me Qingqing again."

Unlike Ning Zhuo felt his scalp tingle and looked around, only to transmit via spiritual sense: "Qingqing."

Qing Chi was then slightly satisfied, leaving with full of attachment: "Little Ma, it hasn't been long since we last met, and talking to you feels like talking to a stranger. I know you have experienced a lot. I can go, but don't forget to send me a letter and make an appointment with me!"

"Okay, okay." Unlike Ning Zhuo used all his strength to finally send the girl away.

He closed the door and let out a turbid breath, feeling quite exhausted.

Sun Lingtong, on the other hand, watched a good show through the life-thread and laughed in Unlike Ning Zhuo's heart: "Little Zhuo, why didn't you let her into the house to have a good chat."

"Oh my, you hurt her heart like this, it's really not good."

Unlike Ning Zhuo said unhappily: "I am not really Jiao Ma, I can't do things like deceiving her feelings."

"Besides, this matter is not that simple."

Sun Lingtong was stunned for a moment, then understood Unlike Ning Zhuo's meaning.

He immediately frowned: "That's right! Her father, Qing Yan, was unwilling for you two to continue your relationship and even gave you a heavy gift as a severance."

"The Jiao family is still counting on you to climb up and have a closer relationship with the City Lord, so they would absolutely never tell Qing Chi your location."

"But Qing Chi not only found the Yang-Strengthening Courtyard but also didn't ask around and found your residence directly. You have to know, how long have you been moved to the Yang-Strengthening Courtyard?"

"This might be someone with ulterior motives, quietly telling Qing Chi."

"Someone is plotting against you, Little Zhuo!"

"Could it be the traitor?"

Unlike Ning Zhuo shook his head: "Not quite sure."

"Let me think about how to deal with it!"

He paced back and forth in the room with his hands behind his back, and after pacing just one circle, he had an idea.

He immediately wrote a letter, but not to Qing Chi, but to the head of the Jiao family and Qing Yan.

The content of the letter was to explain the matter of Qing Chi taking the initiative to find him, but he didn't say what they should do.

What to do, these two naturally knew very well.

Unlike Ning Zhuo looked at these two letters, thought for a moment, and tore up the one for Qing Yan.

Then he added a paragraph at the end of the letter to the head of the Jiao family, asking the head of the Jiao family to write to Qing Yan again to explain the situation.

Not long after the letter was sent, someone knocked on the door again.

Unlike Ning Zhuo's heart jumped every time he heard a knock now.

The head of the Jiao family and Qing Chi taking the initiative to visit were both troubles for Unlike Ning Zhuo.

Who was coming this time?

Unlike Ning Zhuo opened the door and saw an old acquaintance.

The visitor was burly, with a beard, and was the Yang Weida who had entered the city all the way.

Seeing Unlike Ning Zhuo, Yang Weida said: "Jiao Ma, you have to be careful, your current situation is too dangerous!"

Unlike Ning Zhuo raised his eyebrows: "How do you say that?"

Yang Weida looked past Unlike Ning Zhuo's shoulder into the room: "Let's go inside and talk."

Why did everyone want to go inside and talk?

However, Yang Weida was not the head of the Jiao family, nor was he a lovesick girl, so Unlike Ning Zhuo thought for a while and let him into the room.

Yang Weida: "I happened to see Qing Chi come to find you. You are not too stupid, you didn't let her into the room."

"You have to know, we are both male concubines, serving the White Paper City Lord."

"If you are hooking up with others outside and having an affair with others, this is a great taboo!"

Unlike Ning Zhuo nodded: "I have also considered this point."

Yang Weida said: "No, you haven't considered enough. Have you ever thought that you are being plotted against?"

"Qing Chi came too coincidentally!"

Unlike Ning Zhuo frowned, pretending to be surprised: "Ah, really? Who is plotting against me?"

Yang Weida: "There are many."

"Jiao Ma, you just came to the Yang-Strengthening Courtyard and don't quite understand the situation here."

"I came a little earlier than you and found out about the three most powerful male concubines here. They are Shen Bing, Chen Sui, and Sun Tiesheng."

"Shen Bing is a local from the Yin Soul Black Swamp, the youngest son of a pearl-raising household, who obtained a pearl in his childhood and relied on it to step into cultivation. He has an ice spiritual root and mainly cultivates the Cold Extreme Art."

"Chen Sui is from out of town; during a locust plague in his childhood, he was traded by his parents for food and eventually sold to the White Paper Xiancheng. He has been here for more than twenty years."

"Sun Tiesheng is a citizen of the White Paper Xiancheng, the illegitimate son of a blacksmith, and this blacksmith is an important member of the Sun family in the city."

Yang Weida introduced them briefly.

Unlike Ning Zhuo's brow frowned even tighter: "In this way, although I haven't been here for long, I have already suffered the suspicion and design of these three people?"

Yang Weida nodded: "Jiao Ma, don't underestimate yourself. Your family's main cultivation method is famous throughout the swamp, and coupled with your witty performance when you were framed before, you have already caught the City Lord's eye."

"As long as you are given some time to develop, you will inevitably be their most powerful competitor."

"I understand." Unlike Ning Zhuo nodded and saluted Yang Weida, expressing his gratitude, "I will pay close attention."

Yang Weida said a lot, and seeing Unlike Ning Zhuo had the intention to see him off, he hurriedly said: "Jiao Ma, although I am from out of town, I came with you and am on the same side."

"I won't hide it from you, I'll tell you the truth. I came to find you because I want to form an alliance with you."

"With these three people riding on our heads, how can we stand out?"

"Jiao Ma, you just came in and were suppressed by them; what will you do in the future?"

Unlike Ning Zhuo frowned and pondered for a while, then looked at Yang Weida and said: "What you said makes sense, and I am close to you, so of course we can join forces."

"But what can you help me with?"

Yang Weida laughed.

Unlike Ning Zhuo immediately waved his hands: "Don't mention the Yang-Strengthening ointment, you know, the higher-ups have issued more Yang-Strengthening elixirs."

Yang Weida's smile stagnated, and then he gritted his teeth and said: "Although I am just an ordinary traveling merchant, my older brother is not an ordinary person."

"My brother is called Yang Sanyan, a Golden Core true disciple of the Myriad Phenomena Sect, and a member of the Punishment Hall!"

"This ghost tide is powerful, and even if the White Paper Xiancheng offers heavy rewards for cultivators from surrounding villages and towns to come to the city to help, it is very difficult to solve the current predicament."

"Therefore, it is very likely that they will seek help from outside. They have done this several times before."

"And the primary target for help is the Myriad Phenomena Sect!"

"By then, if I can stand out by your side, I can use my brother's power to do many things."

Unlike Ning Zhuo could not help but raise his eyebrows and look Yang Weida up and down.

He did not expect that this person also had such a connection with the Myriad Phenomena Sect.

"A Golden Core true disciple of the Myriad Phenomena Sect, this is amazing!"

"There is no problem with us joining forces."

"But I will tell you in advance, I have no intention of standing out by relying on the identity of a male concubine."

"And Qing Chi... we do have lingering feelings!"

"I myself don't want to gain the City Lord's favor through Yang-Strengthening. It is only because of the family's interests and orders that I do so."

"As long as we survive the current ghost tide, everything will be waiting to be rebuilt, and Qing Chi and I will have new turning points."

Yang Weida said "Ah", hesitating: "This..."

"Therefore, when I was in the Hidden Yang Mansion, I didn't perform with all my strength, but exchanged for a lot of spiritual food for soul cultivation." Unlike Ning Zhuo said.

Yang Weida's expression moved slightly, recalling, and it was indeed so.

Unlike Ning Zhuo saw him off: "I still need to continue my cultivation, so I won't chat anymore. We will contact each other for subsequent matters."

Yang Weida could not help it and had to leave Unlike Ning Zhuo's residence first.

Sun Lingtong felt puzzled and asked secretly: "Little Zhuo, what exactly are you thinking?"

"You clearly don't want to get involved with Qing Chi, so why say such things to Yang Weida?"

Unlike Ning Zhuo: "Do you remember the ointment Yang Weida sold us?"

Sun Lingtong: "Yes, the mechanism ring warned that this ointment is problematic. But Yang Weida himself should have no problems."

"According to what we knew before, he was suspected of being a savior, so he was investigated before entering the city."

"Mourning Music Nether Spirit must have tried her best to test him."

Unlike Ning Zhuo nodded: "If I were the Wangchuan Prefecture Lord or the City-Overturning Alliance, I wouldn't send a traitor like a traveling merchant at this juncture."

"But this does not mean that Yang Weida has no other suspicions."

Speaking of this, Unlike Ning Zhuo's gaze was deep.

Sun Lingtong said "Ah", and finally understood: "You think this is very likely Yang Weida's design? He secretly revealed the news, letting Qing Chi find you?"

Unlike Ning Zhuo nodded slightly: "As a fellow villager, Yang Weida naturally knows more about Jiao Ma and Qing Chi than others."

"He knows even better the power of the Jiao family's main cultivation method."

"If he wants to use my power to resist those three, and uses this plan to force me to join forces with him, it is completely possible."

Sun Lingtong suddenly realized and finally understood why Unlike Ning Zhuo's attitude was inconsistent.

It is said that one speaks human words to humans and ghost words to ghosts.

Sun Lingtong frowned: "Then this situation is very complicated. Who is plotting against you? Is it Yang Weida, or

As the saying goes, speak human words to humans, and ghost words to ghosts.

Sun Lingtong frowned: "Then this situation is very complicated. Who exactly is plotting against you? Is it Yang Weida, the three people he mentioned, or a mole?"

"A mole has a strong motive to deal with you as well."

"First, my previous identity as Tie Tuo was as your personal guard, and I witnessed the battle where the mole ambushed Jin Yangzi."

"Second, you were favored by the City Lord's avatar and appointed to investigate the mole. Even though you used a disguise and pretended to be Wen Ruanyu's deputy, this identity is enough for the mole to target you."

Unlike Ning Zhuo smiled slightly: "I already have an idea."

He took the initiative to contact Wen Ruanyu.

"I have already thought of a strategy, perhaps one that can lure the mole into acting again," Unlike Ning Zhuo said to Wen Ruanyu, getting straight to the point.

Wen Ruanyu's eyes lit up. He had also been planning this matter for days and had many ideas, so he immediately said: "I would like to hear the details."

Unlike Ning Zhuo gave a brief explanation, which made Wen Ruanyu frown in silence.

Unlike Ning Zhuo saw through the hesitation beneath Wen Ruanyu's expression and took the initiative to point it out: "Do you feel that this strategy is too simple and straightforward?"

Wen Ruanyu nodded: "That is indeed how I feel."

Unlike Ning Zhuo smiled slightly and convinced him with just one sentence: "A strategy works as long as it is effective. The Great Dao is simple; the more complex a strategy is, the harder it is to implement and the more variables it contains. This is an open plot! Even if the mole hesitates, how could the army under the Wangchuan Prefecture Lord sit idly by once they launch?"

Wen Ruanyu clapped his hands and laughed: "That is exactly the logic! Young Master Jiao Ma thinks clearly! Let us proceed according to this plan."

Thus, that very evening, the Zhuangyang Courtyard implemented martial law and announced an important matter—the Zhuangyang Courtyard would set up the Spirit Contract Treasure-Refining Array.

This array was quite classic; it could lower the threshold for a magic treasure to recognize its master and reduce the difficulty of refining, allowing the treasure to recognize its master more quickly.

And the sole target of the treasure-refining array was the Golden Swallow Fork.

Whoever refined the Golden Swallow Fork could trigger the massive Yang energy within it, enabling the City Lord's true body to recover and resolving the crisis of the White Paper Xiancheng.

And the male consort who could accomplish this would naturally achieve immense merit and ascend to a high position in one fell swoop!

The Zhuangyang Courtyard distributed array flags, allowing every male consort to have a position to station themselves, fully releasing Yang energy to compete and vie for the status of the treasure's master.

A night passed.

Early morning.

The courtyard was in an uproar.

"Someone is dead, someone is dead!"

Shen Bing was dead.
