Chronicles of Celestial Origins

Tangning nodded, not doubting the authenticity of what he said. There were many factions within the Mubei demons, and the rules and regulations were very chaotic. The reason why they were able to unite was mainly due to the strong power of the demon clan, otherwise they would have been scattered.

There have long been rumors that the Mubei coalition is very unfriendly to the sectarian families who surrendered. This is actually understandable. The Mubei demons went south to Qingzhou not to build, but to plunder.

In their eyes, Qingzhou is a big fat piece of meat, and there is no reason not to eat the fat meat they get. The three largest forces in Qingzhou, Taixuan Sect, Netherworld Sea Organization, and Jiang Family, will never surrender. The second-tier forces, For example, the Mirror Moon Sect and the leading families in each county were closely watched by the coalition forces and had no chance to change their banners.

Therefore, the sects and families that have surrendered are all small forces. The largest ones are only the leading family or the second-level Xuanmen in a county, and more are the overlords of a city like the Huanglong Sect, or even smaller forces.

These small forces have no backers within the Mubei Coalition and are outsiders, so they are naturally the targets of oppression.

Therefore, it is not surprising that Huanglong Sect’s cultivation resources are being cannibalized bit by bit by all parties.

"In this case, why didn't Guizong surrender at the beginning of the headquarters' attack on Changshan County? Wouldn't it be too late to turn back after the headquarters captured Changshan County?"

Lu Xundao: "When your army attacked, the Mubei Allied Army had recruited all the monks of Jindan and above from our sect into its ranks, including my father. Our sect once sent someone to send a letter to the commander of your army, Senior Wang. , expressing his intention to abandon the dark side and surrender to the bright side, Senior Wang only replied that if he wanted to surrender, he must show his sincerity and ask our sect to summon all his disciples to the coalition forces to participate in the attack on Changshan County. "

"At that time, the disciples of our sect were all in the team of Mubei Demon and were under his surveillance. They had no chance to summon the clansmen to leave. It was not until your troops attacked the city all the way and the Mubei Demon fled that our sect had the opportunity to escape from its control. ”

"My father has long heard of my senior's name and that he was ordered to garrison Fanyang City. He immediately sent my junior to visit me and begged me to say a few kind words for our sect."

"I see." Tang Ning stroked her chin calmly. He knew that although Lu Xun said he was extremely helpless, in fact, the Huanglong Sect still had an attitude of sitting on the fence. Otherwise, the army would have attacked earlier. At the beginning of Changshan County, he would lead his disciples to surrender.

As for saying that there is no chance and being monitored, it is just an excuse. No matter how closely the Mubei demon is watching, as long as you are determined, you can always find an opportunity. Even if you cannot summon all the disciples, Lu Zhengxian can go there in person to express his attitude.

Seeing that his attitude was always ambiguous, Lu Xun felt worried, and then said: "There are hundreds of people in our sect, and now they are all related to one person, senior. If senior is willing to help, our sect will also express our gratitude. Senior, what do you want me to ask for?" Zong will never refuse.”

Tang Ning looked embarrassed and said, "Even though I want to help Guizong, I'm afraid it won't help if I'm a soft-spoken person! Since Guizong has already approached Uncle Wang before, you might as well go to him to intercede with him again."

"Please forgive me for speaking bluntly. Our sect is not related to Senior Wang. I am afraid that he may not look down on our sect. Only senior can solve this matter. Everyone in your army knows that Senior Tang is the beloved son-in-law of Senior Nangong. With Nangong As a senior, if she is willing to say a word and our sect will return to the alliance, who dares to say no? "

"Yes, Uncle Nangong is indeed my wife's mentor, but she doesn't care about these trivial matters. Let me tell you the truth! What she hates most is people who are not firm in their stance. It is difficult for her to speak for your sect. ! Even though my wife is her disciple, I can’t say anything in front of her.”

When Lu Xun heard what he said, he was not worried but happy. Knowing that he was not a hawk in sight, he quickly promised: "Senior is too humble. With his abilities and this kind of relationship, wouldn't Senior Nangong treat him differently?" Treat each other? The senior defeated the Qingjiao royal family and became famous in one battle. Who doesn't admire him? Not to mention how many people in the small Changshan County can compare with Taixuanzong or even look at the world. ?”

"Our sect has been entrenched in Fanyang City for many years, and we still have quite a lot of wealth. If our ancestors can make the coalition forces accept our sect again, our sect is willing to give half of our family wealth as reward. A large amount of materials that our sect has used to finance our family business for many years are now stationed in the city. There is a secret place that my father might have been robbed, so I will personally guard it. If the senior can be kind enough to save our sect from danger, I will take the senior to get it."

Tang Ning was still silent. What he wanted was not just the existing assets of the Huanglong Sect. Moreover, even though Lu Xun had given up half of the family assets, who knows how much assets the Huanglong Sect had. In the end, it was not him who had the final say. , what he wants is a long-term blood transfusion pool.

After being silent for a while, he said, "Let me think about this matter."

Seeing that he was unwilling to express his position easily, Lu Xun knew that he had not satisfied his appetite, so he said: "My father has admired the name of my senior for a long time. He often wants to see his face and talk about it over wine. Our sect is quite rich in wine. I wonder if my senior can honor me and go?"

"The affairs of this department are heavy, so I won't go. If your father wants to see me, you might as well invite him to come to the headquarters!" Tangning would not agree to meet at his territory. He had just killed the descendant of the Qingjiao royal family, so he had to be careful in his actions. some. If it was a trap set by the Qingjiao Clan, wouldn't it be like falling into a trap?

"Okay, I'll go back and report to my father. My father has long wanted to get to know the senior, so he will be happy to go." Lu Xun agreed without even thinking about it.

"Then I will prepare some wine and wait here for your Majesty to arrive."

"Goodbye, junior. I'll see you again tomorrow." At this point, what should be talked about has been finished. Lu Xun got up and left knowingly.

At nightfall, Tang Ning was still practicing with her eyes closed. There was a flash of white light in front of her eyes, and Xiao Zhan suddenly came out. She was holding a green gourd in her hand, and her little face was full of excitement: "Xiao Ningzi, look, ice crystals have formed in the gourd again." ”

"Yes." Tangning opened her eyes and responded lightly without showing any signs of surprise. He used the green spiritual power in his body to irrigate the gourd every day. No one knew the changes in the demon core inside better than him.

Under the interaction of green spiritual power and innate energy, the demon pill dissolves little by little and turns into tiny sand particles that adhere to the gourd wall, and then gradually merge into one, condensing into crystal clear solid spiritual energy. This is one point of the entire transformation process. Everything happened under his nose, and he was already used to it.

"Hey! Why are you not happy at all?" Xiao Zhan asked in shock when he saw his cold expression.

"I have discovered the condensation of ice crystals a long time ago. This is just a natural process. Besides, the small piece of ice crystal that is formed is not as big as a fingernail. There is nothing to be happy about."

"Of course it's worth being happy. No matter how small a mosquito is, it's still meat! What's more, with you watering the gourd every day, it won't take long for this small piece of ice crystal to turn into a large one. By the way, Xiao Ningzi, those six When will you give me the spirit-boosting pill?”

Tang Ning had promised to give her three soul-boosting pills after she killed the green dragon, and when she escaped from the formation, she used three soul-boosting pills to protect Liu Ruhan at the critical moment, so she owed a total of six pills.

"Don't worry, Master Zhanxian, I haven't found the recipe for refining the elixir yet. Don't worry! I will never miss out on your share."

………………

At noon the next day, a short old man with a slightly bowed back who looked like a simple and honest little old man was welcomed into the cave. This man was Lu Zhengxian, the headmaster of the Huanglong Sect.

Tang Ning received him in a separate room, where a table of high-end spiritual wine and delicious food had been prepared.

"I've heard about Fellow Taoist Tang for a long time, but when I meet you today, it's better to be famous than to meet him. Fellow Daoist Tang has already reached the Void Refining Realm at such a young age. It's really shameful for me to be an old man."

"You're welcome, Fellow Daoist Lu. Please take a seat. I've known that Fellow Daoist Lu is coming, so I'll be prepared to greet you with a little courtesy."

The two exchanged polite greetings, sat opposite each other at the table, chatted for a few words, and drank a few glasses of wine together before getting down to the main topic.

"Fellow Taoist Mengtang did not give up. He treated me warmly with wine and food. I am very grateful. I have a few words from the bottom of my heart. I hope you will forgive me."

"Fellow Daoist Lu, please speak."

Lu Zhengxian lowered his eyes and sighed: "Fellow Taoist Tang is already aware of our sect's situation. To be honest, everyone in our sect has been frightened and walking on thin ice these days. This old master has neglected his duty! His decision to surrender to the Mubei Demon was wrong. What the old man did has caused many deaths and injuries to everyone in our sect, and the entire sect’s property has been wiped out.”

"Thousands of mistakes are all the fault of one old man. In his twilight years, a disciple who is waiting for death would not regret dying. However, the disciples of the sect have been unreasonably implicated and can only hide around all day long for fear of being caught. Discovering the traces really hurts my heart. It can be said that one mistake will lead to eternal regrets. "

"Since taking refuge in the Mubei demon, I have regretted every day. I have seen the sect's properties being eaten away one by one, but I still dare not speak out. My days are useless and helpless. I have long abandoned the dark side and turned to the bright side, and turned against the Qingzhou Alliance Army. However, I have always been unwilling to do so. Didn’t get a chance.”

"Some time ago, when I heard that your tribe was attacking this county, everyone in the sect was overjoyed. I immediately sent someone to contact the senior king of your tribe. However, I was in the enemy camp and had no chance to go there in person."

"I finally waited until the Mubei demons were in chaos and escaped from their control. I was about to lead my tribe to defect to your tribe, but I found out that your tribe had taken over the county without any blood."

"If you went there rashly at that time, you might be arrested as a demon remnant, so you had to hide in the city to wait for the opportunity. Fortunately, Taoist friend Tang was stationed in the city. I had heard about Taoist friend Tang's name for a long time, and I longed for it. I knew that you were a kind and righteous man who was willing to help those in need. So I sent my dog ​​to pay me a visit.”

"Quinzi returned home last night and praised fellow Taoist fellow Taoist's narrow-minded heart and was very sincere and sincere to him."

"The whole family of our sect is now tied to one person, Taoist friend. I hope that you, Taoist friend, can take pity on me. I, the old man and the whole sect, are deeply grateful. I am willing to be like a cow or a horse to repay my service."

After Lu Zhengxian finished speaking, he stood up and left the stone table, took two steps back, and bowed to the chief minister.
