Chapter 571: Xie of Shanyin
'However, Elder Qingmu Ridge is righteous after all, and the forces under its jurisdiction must also pay attention to eating manners...'
'Even if the Fei family wants to annex Poison Dragon Slope, they must do it slowly, otherwise their reputation will be gone...'
'And, they still need sufficient reasons and excuses...'
'For example... the Poison Dragon Slope cultivators encountered robbery cultivators and all died? Then let the child born by Xiao Cui or Song Yunyun rule this place?'
'This is probably one of the reasons why the Fei family is willing to marry?'
'It's really a bit scary. I'd better continue planting trees...'
Fang Xing said goodbye to Song Yunqian, who had just married off her daughter, and her mood was clearly not very good.
A few months later.
In the thousand-acre bamboo forest, Fang Xing came to the wine cellar and took out a bottle of fruit wine.
Since seeing Monkey Wine, he had been very interested in various fruit brews and had made many attempts.
After obtaining a type of spiritual wine yeast, he had successfully brewed healing berries into wine with a certain healing effect.
It's just that the effect became a bit strange, from immediate healing to slow-acting repair of physical damage, which was quite good for various hidden injuries.
Uncle Tie Luo Sanren was almost on the verge of death back then, and later it was thanks to drinking this wine of his that he barely managed to keep his sixth level of Qi Sensing cultivation.
"Today is autumn dew, suitable for 'Mulberry Brew'!"
Fang Xing took out a jar of wine. The wine liquid inside was like purple crystal, which was mulberry wine brewed from mulberry fruits.
He poured himself a cup and sipped it slowly.
Suddenly.
Natural perception made him look at a place: "Hu Liuniang... why did you come today?"
A beautiful woman walked into the bamboo forest, and it was Hu Liuniang.
Although this woman was still beautiful, there was a trace of vicissitudes between her brows.
"Fellow Daoist Fang..."
Hu Liuniang took Fang Xing's wine cup, not minding that he had used it, drank it directly, and stared at Fang Xing's face blankly: "I also often beg for 'Beauty-Nourishing Pills', but I feel the effect is getting worse and worse. What do you use to maintain this? Could it be 'Blood River Beauty-Preserving Pill' or something?"
Blood River Beauty-Preserving Pill was very popular in the Corpse-Driving Sect, and it needed the essence blood of sixteen-year-old girls as the main raw material. It is said that one pill can preserve beauty for ten years and is extremely popular.
If those old demon women in the Corpse-Driving Sect were still young and beautiful at seventy or eighty, there was a high probability that they used this kind of pill.
"How could I use that kind of evil pill? Probably because the Profound Wood Art I practice is a health-preserving technique, which originally has a certain beauty-preserving effect, and combined with Beauty-Nourishing Pills, the effect is better, right?"
Fang Xing shook his head and said.
This was an excuse he had thought of long ago, and the facts were indeed so.
Among the righteous path, if one practices health-preserving or special techniques, or breaks through the realm fast enough... aging will never catch up with the cultivator.
"So that's how it is..."
Hu Liuniang seemed to believe it, and seemed not to believe it.
"Haha... I don't know why you came to me, Liuniang?"
Fang Xing laughed and muddled through it directly.
"Could it be that I can't come to find you if there's nothing to do? You heartless..."
Hu Liuniang first acted a little angry, but seeing Fang Xing was unmoved, she said: "Yunyun is a good child... She took advantage of her return to bring news that the former Fei family head 'Fei Tianbao' has very likely failed to forge a Dao Foundation and died..."
"Ninth level of Qi Sensing, third-class Dao Foundation... wanting to seek a lower-class Dao Foundation is as difficult as ascending to heaven..."
Fang Xing sighed, and was a bit curious: "Isn't the Fei family able to exchange for Dao Foundation spiritual objects from Elder Qingmu Ridge?"
"According to my speculation, there are many types of Dao Foundation spiritual objects, both for increasing the success rate and for saving lives... Fei Tianbao probably gambled everything and sought one that could increase more Dao Foundation possibilities."
Hu Liuniang said.
"So that's how it is... The Fei family has suffered heavy losses this time, and the days of our five families will be even harder..."
Fang Xing shook his head.
"In Poison Dragon Slope, the ones having a hard time are our East Peak. What does it have to do with you, this enemy/lover?" Hu Liuniang rolled her eyes, and then her expression became incomparably solemn: "Is it... safe here?"
"Naturally safe..."
Fang Xing sat up straight: "What's wrong?"
"According to big brother's speculation, that Dao Foundation of the Fei family, I'm afraid there isn't much time left... Otherwise, Fei Tianbao wouldn't have gambled everything this time." Hu Liuniang leaned closer, her breath like orchids.
"Not much time left?"
Fang Xing's eyes flashed. He naturally knew who she was talking about.
Except for that ancestor of the Fei family in the Dao Foundation realm, no one could make Hu Liuniang so solemn: "How old is he... is there any evidence?"
"There is naturally no evidence, only speculation..." Hu Liuniang said: "Except for the core disciples of the ten major righteous and evil sects, 99% of the Dao Foundation realms in the families outside have only about two hundred years of lifespan. And that Fei family ancestor started to be active one hundred and eighty years ago..."
"In other words... there are still twenty or thirty years?"
Fang Xing was speechless: "If he finds another way to extend his life, it's even harder to say..."
"Dao Foundation life extension is completely different from ordinary people and Qi Sensing life extension. Unless it's the Great Zhou Zhou Shenchao side, it's very difficult..." Hu Liuniang sighed faintly.
Fang Xing could see it. These cultivators in the land outside the square were both loving and hating the Great Zhou Zhou Shenchao, and even carried a trace of indescribable inferiority and admiration.
"And, it is rumored that the Fei family ancestor was seriously injured in his early years, which may have damaged his foundation and lifespan... Plus Fei Tianbao's all-out effort this time, and the bone-sucking and marrow-sucking of our five families..."
Hu Liuniang said: "This possibility is very large, we must be more cautious."
"I understand."
Fang Xing responded solemnly.
If the speculation is true, the Fei family should be cultivating a second Dao Foundation realm expert regardless of the family's foundation.
But if it fails again, no one can guarantee whether that Dao Foundation cultivator will go crazy before dying and completely eliminate the hidden dangers.
'Wait... if it's hidden dangers, my sixth level of Qi Sensing shouldn't be in the other party's eyes, right? At least the White Bone Alliance is more attractive for firepower...'
'And, I am a tiger that doesn't leave the cave. If he dares to come and die, I dare to bury him.'
Thinking of this, Fang Xing returned to calm, looked at Hu Liuniang, and his expression became a bit playful: "Many thanks for the information, Liuniang. I still have a few pots of fine wine here, which are quite effective for beauty, so I will give them to you..."
(Note: Garbled text.)
Spring goes and autumn comes.
The Qiao family caravan came to Poison Dragon Slope again.
"The world changes, who can say clearly?"
Qiao Wuyong looked at the bamboo shadows and sighed quite a bit.
Originally, the Seven Righteous Ones of the Song family in Green Water Bay were very prosperous, but in just a few short years, they had completely declined.
On the contrary, Poison Dragon Slope, without a sound, actually supported Fei Cai to become the Fei family head.
Not only that, but they also married a daughter to the direct line of the Fei family.
This relationship was completely different.
He boarded Poison Dragon Slope and saw that both Fang Xing and Old Man Lv were there, and couldn't help but be a bit surprised: "Fellow Daoist Lv, Fellow Daoist Fang... sorry to trouble the two of you to come out and welcome me personally."
"Haha, Steward Qiao, one year has passed, and your style is still the same, please!"
Old Man Lv invited Qiao Wuyong into the living room, drank and had fun at the banquet as usual, and only then ordered people to serve fragrant tea and talked about business.
"Poison Dragon Slope's 'Poison Dragon Gall' has a good harvest this
Old Man Lv bargained with Qiao Wuyong while selling misery.
Fang Xing watched with a smile.
This time, at Old Man Lv's request, he also came out to receive him as proof that he still had a relationship with the Five Friends of Floating Clouds.
After all, the outside world did indeed have a bit of a treacherous appearance.
Qiao Wuyong dealt with it skillfully while using the spiritual eye spell to scan Fang Xing.
'Sure enough... still the same as the previous few times, without any flaws... no matter how you look at it, it's the sixth level of Qi Sensing...'
'However, cultivation at the Late Stage of Qi Sensing is getting harder and harder. I don't know if this person can successfully break through to the ninth level of Qi Sensing before the sixty-year limit, and try to forge a Dao Foundation...'
Forging a Dao Foundation is the beginning of a cultivator's transformation. If one is over sixty years old, the blood and energy begin to fail, and the success rate will drop quite a bit.
Qiao Wuyong himself might not have much certainty.
The resources of the Qiao family can probably guarantee that he will cultivate to the ninth level of Qi Sensing before the age of sixty, and then smash the pots and sell the iron to obtain a Dao Foundation spiritual object, that's all.
This is already the treatment that many cultivators dream of.
'Before, the leader of the Song family went missing and was later confirmed dead... maybe he died at this person's hands...'
Qiao Wuyong knew the true defensive power of Poison Dragon Slope at that time. Besides that black snake, there was also Fang Xing at the seventh level of Qi Sensing!
Therefore, even if Uncle Tie Luo Sanren, the number one expert on Poison Dragon Slope, had been confirmed to have fallen in realm, he was still very polite.
Especially when discussing the bamboo paper and bamboo strip business with Fang Xing, he gave up a lot of profit.
Even, he finally sold a piece of news:
"Do the two Fellow Daoists know that the Fei family has a conflict with the Xie family of Shanyin?"
"Xie of Shanyin?"
Old Man Lv was startled: "The Dao Foundation family on the Corpse-Driving Sect side?"
"Exactly... it is said that it is for the distribution of income from the Cloud Come Market, and they have already fought a few secret battles..."
Qiao Wuyong said with a smile: "I don't know if they will each mobilize vassals to fight if it expands later..."
As soon as these words came out, the Five Friends of Floating Clouds all looked incomparably solemn.
After Qiao Wuyong left, Old Man Lv's expression was gloomy, and he looked at his sworn brothers and sisters: "According to the agreement of the wasteland opening order, if the Fei family conscripts, we must either provide talisman coins or effort... According to the Fei family's current urine, I'm afraid we have to provide people. According to my meaning, if there is something this time, I and the third brother will go... If we go again next time, it will be the fourth sister and fifth sister... The second brother has already paid a lot for us. If there is something again, it will be the third batch."
"Big brother..." Uncle Tie Luo Sanren was a bit moved: "If there is something, bring my Uncle Tie Luo Umbrella, it's a magical artifact after all."
Fang Xing glanced at Uncle Tie Luo Sanren, who actually looked a bit skinny compared to before, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
"We know..." Song Yunqian and Hu Liuniang both agreed, only Lin Xu looked a bit unconvinced, but didn't say anything.
After these people left, Old Man Lv specifically sent Fang Xing to the West Slope, and only when they parted did he say: "Fellow Daoist is the foundation of my Poison Dragon Slope, so when encountering things, remember to protect yourself... The third brother has the most active mind, but as long as I am here, I can still suppress it. The families of Poison Dragon Slope will have to rely on Fellow Daoist to look after them in the future."
