Immortal Mansion: With mediocre qualifications, I have no choice but to live forever

Ten days later, Liu Rushui's reply finally arrived at the border market.

The person who delivered the secret letter was someone Zhou Yiqiao had never expected.

"Senior Sister Bi Yao! Why did you come here in person?"

The person who came was none other than Biyao, the jewel in the crown of the Qingmu family, whom Zhou Yiqiao asked Liu Rushui to contact in the secret letter!

Biyao took off her hood, revealing her rosy face, with a unique temperament that was a mixture of heroism and gentleness between her brows.

After not seeing each other for many years, Biyao's temperament has become more and more otherworldly, like a clear spring in the mountains, pure yet lively.

She smiled, her eyes twinkling with cunning and concern.

"Senior Sister received your request, but disobeyed the old man's warning and took a long detour to avoid the sect's eyes and ears, just to personally hand this letter to you."

"You kid, you really know how to cause trouble for me."

Zhou Yiqiao welcomed Bi Yao into the backyard, but he did not believe Bi Yao's one-sided words.

"Sister, you are like this, I'm afraid you didn't force Elder Qingmu to agree, right?"

"I guess it was Senior Sister's soft and hard persuasion, coupled with your sharp words, that forced Elder Qingmu to give in."

When the truth was exposed, Bi Yao's pretty face turned red, and a look of anger and shame suddenly appeared on her face.

"You are so good, Zhou Yiqiao, you are getting better and better at reading people's minds!"

"But don't be complacent. The old man was willing to send me here because this matter is of great importance and cannot afford to make any mistakes."

As Bi Yao spoke, she took out a delicate letter from her arms and gently placed it on the table.

"This is the result of a discussion between the old man and a group of elders. I haven't opened it yet. You can take a look at it yourself."

When Zhou Yiqiao heard this, he was shocked and knew the importance of this letter.

He took a deep breath, and without any thought of avoiding suspicion, he unfolded the letter, scanning it word by word, and his expression became solemn.

In the letter, the countermeasures discussed by Elder Qingmu and several elders were detailed and thorough. Not only did they analyze the severity of the current situation, they also bluntly told Zhou Yiqiao that Qinjian Villa could not provide much help in this battle.

"Has the friction between the Villa and the Great Elder reached such a critical point?"

After reading the contents of the letter, Zhou Yiqiao frowned and felt mixed emotions.

He looked up at Biyao, his eyes full of worry.

"Senior Sister Biyao, Qinjian Villa has no reinforcements. I can't completely wipe out Yanyang Sect and Qibaozhai from the map without making any noise."

Seeing this, the anger on Biyao's face gradually disappeared, replaced by a sly smile.

"Junior brother, look at me, your sister. Didn't I come here to help you with this matter?"

When Zhou Yiqiao heard this, his heart moved. He knew that Bi Yao must have something to say, so he listened attentively.

Seeing that Zhou Yiqiao was finally scared by her, Bi Yao smiled slightly, raised her jade hand slightly, and shook her fingertips lightly. An almost invisible green light flew out from her sleeve and landed on the stone table in the backyard.

The green light gradually solidified, and it turned out to be a tiny spirit insect, emerald green all over, emitting a faint light.

"This is the spiritual insect I have carefully cultivated for many years - the Green Shadow Insect."

Bi Yao introduced softly, with a hint of pride in her eyes.

"Although it cannot directly participate in combat, it can be used for reconnaissance, communication, and even for performing illusions under certain circumstances. It is very effective."

Zhou Yiqiao was shocked. He could feel that although this green shadow spirit insect was small, it had something extraordinary.

He knew that Bi Yao's cultivation had reached the peak of the Spiritual Transformation Realm. Since this spirit insect could catch Bi Yao's eye, its strength must not be too low.

While Zhou Yiqiao was thinking, Bi Yao had already told him the information about Yan Yang Sect and Qibaozhai.

"Although the villa cannot help you, we have gathered all the information about Yanyang Sect and Qibaozhai for you."

"Li Xunfeng of Yanyang Sect is actually named Du Yifeng. He was wanted by the villa because of practicing the forbidden technique "The True Solution of Blazing Sun", so he defected from his master."

"Now it seems that after he left the sect, he was taken in by the Great Elder and is working for that old man."

"This person is ruthless and very good at fire magic. Although he is only half a step away from becoming a god, it is said that he has defeated a god cultivator with his fire magic."

"According to the information collected by the villa, this person accidentally found an ancient fire vein at the foot of the mountain gate of the current Yanyang Sect 23 years ago, and established his own sect, the current Yanyang Sect."

"As for Qibaozhai, it is an even more mysterious force."

"On the surface, they are dealing in rare treasures, but in reality, they are secretly involved in all kinds of transactions, ranging from cultivation resources to intelligence networks."

"As far as we know, there is a powerful force behind Qibaozhai. This force is far beyond the reach of the forces in the border market. Therefore, for many years, these clans and families in the border market have been in a state of confusion and dare not offend them."

When Biyao said this, her tone became particularly solemn.

"The shopkeeper of Qibaozhai is the lady Dan whom you have met."

"The sect only found out that this woman appeared out of nowhere a hundred years ago. She came to the border market to establish a force under the order of the great elder and secretly protected the great elder's spiritual herb smuggling business. As for her true identity, even the villa can't find out the general idea."

"But we interrogated several monks who had close contact with Qibaozhai, and learned from them that this woman seemed to be an illusionist who had the ability to control people's minds and identify treasures. She is a person who should not be underestimated."

"Because of her existence, Qibaozhai has many masters under her command, including some who are at the Spiritualization Stage or above. This is why Qibaozhai can maneuver among the many forces in the border market with ease and remain standing."

After listening to the information provided by Bi Yao, Zhou Yiqiao still felt heavy in his heart, but a gleam of light gradually appeared in his eyes.

Even though Qinjian Villa cannot provide direct support, with Biyao and her green shadow insects, they are not without a chance.

"Senior Sister Biyao, if the Emerald Shadow Bug can really make everyone in Qibaozhai fall into an illusion as you said, then we do have a glimmer of hope."

Zhou Yiqiao said in a deep voice, with a hint of determination in his tone.

Biyao nodded, full of confidence.

"I have been studying and cultivating green shadow insects over the years. Although they are small, thousands of them can form a huge fantasy realm when combined."

"As long as the arrangement is proper, it won't be difficult to make everyone in Qibaozhai fall into illusion at once."

"In the illusion, reality and illusion are intertwined, and even a strong man in the Spiritualization Stage will find it difficult to distinguish. By then, Senior Sister has the confidence to deal with the entire Qibaozhai monks alone."

Biyao continued, her eyes gleaming with wisdom.

Zhou Yiqiao thought for a moment and spoke slowly.

"Since you are in charge of dealing with Qibaozhai, I will concentrate my efforts on dealing with Yanyang Sect. As long as these two forces can be eliminated, the chance for the Great Elder to smuggle spiritual herbs will be delayed for another fifty years!"
