Protagonist:

Xu Zhangqing

Spirit Field, Rong Family.

As a streak of green light radiated outward, enveloping the entire area, this scene was witnessed by Huo Wan, Ji Mingxuan, and the others, who hurriedly ran out of their rooms.

As the green light dissipated, the true forms of the three were revealed.

They were respectively Xu Zhangqing, Rong Yan, and Zhu Fuxian.

"Huo Wan of the Earth Fire District!"

"Junior of the Linghe Sect!"

"Paying respects to the Grain Master!"

Everyone cupped their hands and bowed respectfully.

Zhu Fuxian kept her eyelids lowered, not even sparing them a glance, and said indifferently, "There is no business of yours here."

Huo Wan looked at Rong Yan with slight hesitation; seeing the other party shake his head at her, she then turned and left.

The Linghe Sect crowd led by Ji Mingxuan, even more so, all returned to their rooms, shutting doors and windows tight.

The place quickly fell quiet again, leaving only the three of them once more.

Xu Zhangqing hesitated for a moment, then asked, "Grain Master, do we just wait dryly like this?"

Zhu Fuxian shook her head: "No."

Xu Zhangqing and Rong Yan exchanged a glance, and immediately asked curiously, "Then what?"

Zhu Fuxian gave a slight smile: "Drink wine on one hand, wait on the other!"

At these words, the two were instantly dumbfounded.

For a moment, neither knew what to say.

They had thought that, no matter what, some advance preparation would be needed.

After all, those were the Spirit-Eroding Fungus King and the Hundred-Year Sui Mai Worm Mother.

But from the looks of it now, Zhu Fuxian trusts the Earth Pulse Abyss Master, namely Shi Yuan, very much.

Zhu Fuxian took out the Top-grade Spirit Rice Wine Xu Zhangqing had given her, then raised an eyebrow and said, "How about it, does your Rong Family not even know the way of hosting guests?"

Rong Yan jumped in fright, and hurriedly nodded: "Yes yes yes!"

With a whoosh, he ran toward the house.

Originally it was evening, the vast majority of people were resting, and even the lights were very dim.

But before long, the place became brightly lit, and many people got up.

Those cleaning cleaned.

Those cooking cooked.

In short, it instantly became incomparably lively.

Zhu Fuxian took this in with her eyes, then slowly withdrew her gaze: "Xiao Xu, this matter is not as simple as you imagine."

Xu Zhangqing froze: "What do you mean?"

Zhu Fuxian narrowed her eyes slightly, her gaze exceptionally deep: "The Spiritual Energy inside this underground Spiritual Vein has long since withered away; it is impossible for it to attract the Hundred-Year Sui Mai Worm Mother."

Xu Zhangqing's expression changed slightly: "You mean to say, this is man-made?"

Zhu Fuxian downed a mouthful of the slightly cool Top-grade Spirit Rice Wine in one gulp, then said: "This is one of the reasons I sent Rong Yan away."

Xu Zhangqing frowned: "This matter, it shouldn't be him making trouble."

Zhu Fuxian gave him a sidelong glance: "How so?"

Xu Zhangqing described the events that had happened before in full: "It was like this..."

Upon hearing that the reason he was able to discover the disaster in advance was actually because he had been schemed against.

Even Zhu Fuxian, for all her deep schemes, listened to the end with a somewhat dazed look in her eyes.

For a time, she didn't know whether to punish Rong Yan or praise Rong Yan.

This cause and effect, others couldn't even dream of.

In other words, if this matter was truly done by Rong Yan, he would never have sought out Xu Zhangqing; he would only need to wait patiently.

Put bluntly, there was absolutely no need to deceive oneself.

Zhu Fuxian thought for a moment: "Even if Rong Yan is temporarily cleared of suspicion, this matter ultimately occurred in the Rong Family's Spirit Field, therefore it is most likely the doing of someone here."

Xu Zhangqing agreed: "Makes sense, but what is the meaning of doing it this way?"

At this time, Rong Yan, having arranged everything, ran out from the house, saying with an air of claiming credit: "Grain Master, Envoy Xu Ling, everything is arranged properly, let's eat and drink and wait."

Zhu Fuxian gave him a thumbs up: "You... are very excellent!"

"Huh?"

Rong Yan first froze, then scratched his head and laughed awkwardly a few times: "Hehe!"

Then, the three entered the house.

Inside, everything had been tidied up, and all kinds of melons and fruits were laid out.

As for the meal, the cook was still preparing it, they would have to wait a bit.

Just like that, the three waited while drinking and eating.

Time flowed quietly by, and soon it reached the latter half of the night.

After three rounds of wine and five flavors of dishes.

Zhu Fuxian glanced at Xu Zhangqing, who understood at once and immediately asked: "Old Yan, why did you choose this area to open up spirit fields?"

Rong Yan was already a bit drunk, and hearing someone address him so familiarly made him very happy; he immediately laughed and said: "Initially, we did not choose here."

After all, many things had been planned long ago.

Xu Zhangqing was quite surprised: "Then why did you suddenly change your mind?"

Rong Yan continued: "A Senior Array Master of our clan said the terrain, environment, feng shui, and such here were all very good, with a very low possibility of disaster."

Therefore, we chose here."

Array Masters and Alchemists are similar.

Divided into:

Junior Array Master

Mastering the most basic array knowledge, memorizing the definitions and functions of "Array Base, Array Eye, Array Pattern," and able to read the complete array diagrams of low-grade arrays.

Intermediate Array Master

On the basis of basic array knowledge, slightly understanding high-grade arrays and mastering simple feng shui knowledge, judging the "auspicious position" for setting up arrays by observing the density of surface vegetation and hours of sunlight.

Senior Array Master

Mastering rich high-grade array knowledge and feng shui theory, able to disassemble and recombine different arrays to form new variant arrays, and using terrain and feng shui layouts to enhance array effects.

Top-tier Array Master

Deeply fusing high-grade and top-tier arrays with feng shui layouts, terrain, environment, etc., setting up "pseudo-natural" arrays with immense power and astonishing effects.

Array Grandmaster

Using the course of spiritual veins, by setting up high-grade or top-tier arrays, changing the terrain, feng shui, and overall layout of a local area, even precisely locating the position and course of underground spirit veins and mineral veins, able to guide Earth Pulse Spirit Qi to gather in specific areas, creating "natural arrays" that require no manual maintenance.

Xunlong Sect Master

All arrays they set up merge with the laws of heaven and earth, understanding the law that "earth veins breed spirit veins, spirit veins generate dragon veins," setting up arrays with the momentum of nature to guide spirit vein spirit qi to nourish dragon veins, or let dragon vein spirit qi feed back into earth veins, even seizing the creation of heaven and earth to give birth to new spirit veins.

Being able to become a Senior Array Master shows that this person's talent, comprehension, and ability are all first-rate.

Therefore, their status in the Rong Family is absolutely not low, even very high.

Zhu Fuxian asked with great interest: "What is that person's surname and name, and where are they now?"

Rong Yan expressed great regret: "That is an elder of my family, named Rong Long."

Over three hundred years old this year, ranked Qin Hua Golden Core."

Said he wanted to tour mountains and rivers, and has already left the immortal sect."

Xu Zhangqing and Zhu Fuxian glanced at each other, both seeing the suspicious look in each other's eyes.

Not leaving early, not leaving late.

But touring mountains and rivers at this time?

Probably has a guilty conscience!

If the person were still here, immediately catch them and interrogate.

Only a pity, the other party has already run away, and definitely cannot be found in a short time.

What's more, this person is not only a Senior Array Master, but also ranked Qin Hua Golden Core, not an easy person to deal with.

Xu Zhangqing suddenly had a thought, then asked further: "By the way, is your elder Rong Long perhaps an Insect Controller Master?"

Rong Yan asked back in great surprise: "How do you know!"
