Chapter 41

The ceremony was not in the hall, there were too many guests, and the main hall of the original Danxia Gang could not be accommodated, so it was held in the large square.

Shen Tang sat in the main seat, and Lu Xingzhou sat by her side.

At a glance, the guests almost laughed to death. They said it was a vibrant newcomer, but as a result, two people in wheelchairs sat at a glance, and they were quite a match.

The new City Lord Sheng Yuanyao sat in the first seat of the guest seat, which made the guests pay attention to their quality, all hiding the irony in their eyes, and laughed and took their seats.

Shen Tang seemed not to see the guests' sarcasm, and greeted the guests with impeccable smiles. Lu Xingzhou was transmitting sound to Sheng Yuanyao and scolding: "Is this ranking of mine your ghost?"

Sheng Yuanyao was carrying A Nuo and rubbing her, looking straight ahead: "The general list is set, what does it have to do with me, a county-level commander?"

Lu Xingzhou was also dazed for a moment, feeling that there should be no saying of scolding people as 38, and there is no Women's Day, is it really a coincidence?

But looking at this dead melon sister holding a look of absolutely not laughing, how can it feel so strange... Forget it, anyway, today passes, this ranking has to change.

No, it has to change in half a year...

Manpower statistics are inconvenient, why not have a real-time Heavenly Dao list, flashing golden light, how high the forcing grid is.

Sheng Yuanyao was too lazy to care what he was thinking. She observed the Heavenly Travel Sword Sect and felt quite relaxed in her heart. This Heavenly Travel Sword Sect is broken, and it is withered and defeated compared to its heyday, but compared to Xiazhou, it is a suppression situation.

The highest Shen Tang is fourth grade. In addition, there is a Sword Peak Hall Master Jin Mingxiu, who is also a fourth-grade upper-level sword cultivator, very strong—he was leading the crowd to do other tasks outside when the incident happened, and escaped the disaster, and just returned to the sect the day before yesterday. Loyalty is hard to say, Lu Xingzhou even suspected whether he knew any information and deliberately hid outside when the incident happened, this has no evidence and is temporarily not mentioned.

Tang Yunzhong and others were not real high-level elders, the high-level basically died, they were all deputy positions or even idle positions in various halls, most of them were fifth-grade cultivation or only sixth-grade. Not long after arriving in Xiazhou, eight were killed by the little white hair with one sword, and now they are even more withered.

Two fourth-grade, three fifth-grade, seven sixth-grade, this is all the middle-three-grade combat power of the Heavenly Travel Sword Sect at present. And the sects in Xiazhou, the strongest are only fifth-grade, and there are not many.

It is just a county with thin spiritual energy.

It seems that this ceremony can't make any moths.

But Sheng Yuanyao forgot that Xiazhou is lagging behind, which does not mean that the surrounding is lagging behind. There are many spiritual mountains and handsome mountains around, although there are no top strong sects, there are quite a few third-grade and fourth-grade sects and gangs.

The famous alchemy sect Fenxiang Building is a third-grade sect, and there are not many fourth-grade powerhouses in the sect than the middle-three-grade people added up on Shen Tang's side. And the Fenxiang Building produces alchemists, spread all over the major gang forces in the state and county, and is very popular.

"Elder Bai of Fenxiang Building arrives~" The singing of the guard disciples came from afar, and the large square that was still whispering instantly quieted down a few points.

A white-bearded old man brought two guards, followed by a Bai Chi, and the four walked into the field slowly.

The white-bearded old man is Elder Bai Jingtian of the Fenxiang Building, Bai Chi's grandfather, whose alchemy strength is as high as fourth grade, and is a very famous alchemist. People don't know much about his cultivation, but everyone knows the cultivation of alchemists, piled up with elixirs, no practical ability, so he also brought two people to protect him, both of whom should be fourth-grade Daoist cultivators.

Many people know the grudge between Shen Tang hiring Bai Chi and being poached just after arriving in Xiazhou, and now it seems that this poaching might be the calculation of the Fenxiang Building wanting to eat the Danxia Gang's household, but the Danxia Gang was intercepted by Shen Tang. The grudge between the Fenxiang Building Bai family and Shen Tang Lu Xingzhou can be considered to be on the table, and this congratulation will only have malice.

Sheng Yuanyao's eyeballs rolled around, looking from the two wheelchair people in the main seat to Bai Chi who was walking over.

"You say if this pair of wheelchair people can succeed, does the first merit count as Bai Chi's?" Sheng Yuanyao quietly pinched A Nuo and asked.

"Count." A Nuo rubbed her face resentfully, she didn't know when she became the private pet of the City Lord sister, obviously she had cheated her silver before.

"Then today your master shouldn't deal with Bai Chi, he should kowtow to him."

"...You should say Bai Chi don't deal with my master! They are standing there, and sparks are coming out of their eyes, didn't you see it, City Lord, go and mediate!"

"Can your master still be afraid of them? Pfft." Sheng Yuanyao pinched A Nuo's collar who wanted to run: "Don't run, accompany sister to eat melon obediently."

Bai Jingtian walked to Shen Tang and arched his hands somewhat arrogantly: "Fenxiang Building wishes the Heavenly Travel Sword Sect a great joy."

Shen Tang smiled indifferently: "Thank you, Elder Bai. Speaking of which, when this sect master went to the Fenxiang Building to seek an alchemist, it was Elder Bai who recommended Mr. Bai Chi. This feeling is remembered by this sect master."

Lu Xingzhou narrowed his eyes slightly.

From Bai Chi's intention to eat the Danxia Gang's household, it can be seen that at first they thought of eating Shen Tang's household? It's just that Shen Tang didn't show her wealth at first, and Bai Chi found that the Danxia Gang's family business was much larger than Shen Tang's after arriving in Xiazhou, and happened to be familiar with Liu Yan'er in childhood, and they hooked up with each other, directly changing the target.

So Shen Tang's "remembered" is gritted teeth.

"Chi'er's cultivation is insufficient, making Sect Master Shen laugh." Bai Jingtian perfunctorily said, his eyes fell on Lu Xingzhou: "This is Mr. Lu Xingzhou Lu, ranked 38th on the Alchemist Newcomer List?"

Lu Xingzhou didn't pay attention to him at all, and smiled at Bai Chi: "I thought Brother Bai and I were about the same, and wanted to continue the fate on the list, but I didn't expect to find Brother Bai's name after searching the list, it seems there is no fate."

"You!" Bai Chi was furious.

He is only twenty years old, if he had successfully certified as a seventh-grade alchemist before, he would definitely be on the newcomer list. Unfortunately, it was destroyed by Lu Xingzhou, and he was stuck at the eighth grade, so he couldn't be on any list. He ran to such a small place as Xiazhou to certify, thinking he could drill a loophole, but he didn't expect to meet a ghost even for this little calculation.

However, he also knows that he is not comparable to Lu Xingzhou now. The reason why Lu Xingzhou can rank as high as 38th is not only because of the seventh grade, but because of the seventh-grade upper-level. This line of alchemists attaches great importance to experience. At Lu Xingzhou's age, he is definitely a genius, and only the proud children of those top sects can compare.

He took a deep breath and still maintained a smile: "I met Brother Lu that day and learned a lot. I will ask for advice again when I have fate in the future."

Lu Xingzhou smiled and said: "After some time, Brother Bai's illness has actually been cured, it seems that there is indeed some progress."

Bai Chi's face was blue and he didn't speak. Bai Jingtian's face was as heavy as water, because he cured it: "Young people are arrogant and rude. Sect Master Shen, is this your way of managing subordinates?"

Shen Tang also looked at Lu Xingzhou's nonsense with a smile, and only then said: "I only see my guest elder caring about Brother Bai's body, is this also rude?"

Bai Jingtian snorted coldly, flicked his sleeves and entered the guest seat: "I hope the two can always laugh happily."

After all, the City Lord is here, the ceremony hasn't started, it's not the time to cause trouble... When everyone is here, there will be calculations.

Sheng Yuanyao quietly said to A Nuo: "He is making trouble, she is laughing, so spoiled..."

A Nuo: "I hope sister can always laugh happily."

The guard sang again: "Sect Master Wu of Cangshan Sword Sect arrives~"

"Deputy Gang Leader Wang of Dongjiang Gang arrives~"

"True Person Xuanhe of Lingyun Gate arrives~"

With these few singing, the square became quieter, and Sheng Yuanyao finally couldn't laugh.

These are not Xiazhou forces, they are all far away, Dongjiang Gang is the first big gang in Dongjiang County, Cangshan Sword Sect and Lingyun Gate are strong sects in spiritual mountains and handsome mountains, almost never involved with the local area, all are fourth-grade forces.

These few plus the Fenxiang Building, the forces in the field are about to suppress the host a lot. If Sheng Yuanyao felt that the Heavenly Travel Sword Sect could suppress the Xiazhou forces from causing trouble, but now there is no confidence at all, and even her own City Lord's deterrent power is not visible...

Why should the outside sects give you Xiazhou City Lord face?

Shen Tang didn't seem to care, still greeted the people who just arrived with a calm and elegant smile, then looked at the sky, and spread her voice to the whole field: "The auspicious time has arrived, those who haven't arrived will not wait."

"My sect unfortunately encountered a great disaster, fortunately heaven did not abandon it, the Holy Emperor pitied it, and was able to re-establish itself in Xiazhou. You don't dislike the vulgarity, come to celebrate the ceremony of this sect, it is the honor of my Heavenly Travel Sword Sect. I hope you fellow Daoists will help more in the future, Shen Tang thanks you here."

Originally, I had to say some scene words, such as how the Heavenly Travel Sword Sect will give back to the villagers in the future, etc., and then show the sect's weather, ten thousand swords flying together, etc., to strengthen the momentum, and then everyone eats and drinks well, which is an ordinary ceremony.

As a result, Shen Tang's subsequent scene words hadn't started yet, and discordant voices came from the field: "Sect Master Shen, these words don't need to be said, the villagers want to know what your sect relies on to stand... Now your sect has inherited the original Danxia Gang, are you continuing to plant and sell medicinal materials?"

Interrupting others' founding speeches is an extremely rude behavior, equivalent to stepping on the faces of the Heavenly Travel Sword Sect and Shen Tang into the mud.

Sheng Yuanyao turned her head and saw that it was Bai Jingtian, and a fire rose up.

Lu Xingzhou didn't cause trouble, sure enough, it was you bastards who wanted to cause trouble!

Shen Tang's elegant smile that had always been gentle also disappeared, her expression sank, and her eyes turned sharp.

Thousands of people in the square felt a thump in their hearts... This woman looks beautiful and dignified, but once she pulls her face, the momentum is so heavy!

Fourth-grade sword cultivator, after all, has some skills.

But Lu Xingzhou spoke leisurely from the side: "Medicinal planting and selling is a widespread business for the villagers of Xiazhou. Our Heavenly Travel Sword Sect practices swords, and we are not good at this, so we withdraw from this industry and do not compete with fellow Daoists. This can be considered the first measure of our sect to stand with neighbors."

This made most of the Xiazhou forces in the field look much better. If it is really according to this statement, the founding of the Heavenly Travel Sword Sect is better for everyone than the original Danxia Gang, and there is one less competitor with a large medicine mountain.

Lu Xingzhou continued: "Even the alchemy industry that the former Gang Leader Liu tried to get involved in, our sect also mostly withdrew..."

As if finding a loophole in his words, Bai Jingtian sneered: "What is mostly?"

"Naturally, those low-grade elixirs, we don't do them, and we don't compete with the villagers, harmony makes money..." Lu Xingzhou said indifferently, but his tone gradually turned sharp: "But those sixth-grade elixirs, especially the Snow-Melting Return-to-Origin Elixir, our sect will still do."

Bai Jingtian was stunned, and then the whole field was in an uproar.

Snow-Melting Return-to-Origin Elixir, the famous treasure elixir of the Fenxiang Building, restores blood and qi and spiritual energy at the same time, taking into account both healing and returning qi, is one of the lifelines of the Fenxiang Building.

This Heavenly Travel Sword Sect, showing favor to a group of villagers with low grades, but opened its mouth to declare war on the third-grade sect Fenxiang Building!
