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

Outside Canglong Ridge, in the Immortal Emperor's tent, Luo Fengtian and a mysterious man in black robes sat opposite each other in the tent and dismissed all outsiders.

If Zhou Yiqiao were here, he would definitely be able to recognize the man in black robe. He was the mysterious young man who had saved his life and supported him in Qinjian Villa!

"It's just a fight between children. Is it worth mobilizing so many troops?"

The mysterious young man laughed softly, as if he couldn't understand what Luo Fengtian had done.

"I don't want you to be so romantic. I need to consider the safety of the entire Daxuantian."

"This matter is indeed just a small matter for people of our level of cultivation, but the people involved are royal nobles after all. If it is not handled properly, it will affect the foundation of the Great Xuantian Kingdom. I can't bear it."

Luo Fengtian did not put on any airs of an Immortal Emperor in front of the mysterious young man and revealed his true nature.

"I'm telling you, if you do something like this, aren't you afraid of exhausting yourself and delaying your work?"

"It's fine with me. Even if I collapse from exhaustion, at most I'll just be a crippled body."

Luo Fengtian laughed and didn't care at all.

As he spoke, he winked at the mysterious young man.

"Besides, with Zhou Yiqiao around, if the situation becomes desperate, you, a peerless master, will also lend a hand, right?"

"Okay, so you are waiting for me here."

The mysterious young man shook his head and laughed, as if he didn't care about Luo Fengtian's teasing.

"You are good at calculating, but you also know that I can only take action a limited number of times, and I cannot interfere in the affairs of your Great Xuantian at will."

Luo Fengtian nodded, without any doubt about the alarmist words of the young man in front of him.

"Don't worry, I won't let you take action unless it's absolutely necessary."

Luo Fengtian said seriously, then changed the subject and revealed a fox-like smile again.

"However, since Zhou Yiqiao has already stepped into this vortex on his own initiative, why don't you do me a favor?"

The mysterious young man raised his eyebrows, as if asking what Luo Fengtian wanted him to do.

"I need you to keep an eye on someone for me."

As Luo Fengtian spoke, he took out a jade slip from his sleeve and handed it to the mysterious young man.

"Sheng Kaiyao? What? Are you finally going to take action against the Sheng family and the Eight Pillars?"

The mysterious young man took the jade slip, scanned it with his spiritual sense, and said with some surprise.

When Luo Fengtian heard this, his face darkened as if water could drip out of it.

"Even if it is the Luo family, the royal descendants after ten generations have to establish their own family and find their own way out. He, the Eight Pillars of the State, is just a general who followed the founding emperor to fight on the battlefield. How can he be qualified to continue to enjoy wealth and glory?"

"When our ancestors founded the country, our Luo royal family and the Eight Pillar States signed an alliance, each performing their own duties and not invading each other."

"But now, which of the Eight Pillar States is not a blood-sucking insect lying on the Great Xuantian? Apart from grabbing a large amount of immortal cultivation resources from the entire Tianchen Realm every year, have they made any contribution to the Great Xuantian!?"

The mysterious young man frowned slightly as he listened to Luo Fengtian's accusations.

"I have had the honor of meeting the eight pillars of the founding of the Great Xuantian Kingdom. They are indeed outstanding people. It is not an exaggeration to call them seniors."

"However, up to now, the Eight Pillars, especially the Sheng family headed by them, have long been deeply rooted in the Tianchen Realm. It can be said that a single move can affect the entire body."

"Aren't you afraid of accidents if you take action at this critical moment?"

The mysterious young man asked in a deep voice.

Luo Fengtian snorted coldly, a hint of cruelty flashing in his eyes.

"The existence of the Eight Pillar States has long been a hindrance to the development of the Great Xuantian."

"Since I, Luo Fengtian, am sitting in this position, I naturally have to consider the future of Daxuantian."

"I conferred a higher title on Sheng Kaiyao, married his daughter, and even treated that lowly maidservant and someone else's bastard as my precious jewels!"

Luo Fengtian exerted a little force on his palm, and with a "pop" sound, the entire low table in front of the two of them broke and turned into powder.

"But they are greedy and secretly collude to weaken the imperial power. If I don't take the initiative, do I have to wait for them to overthrow my Luo family's rule?"

The mysterious young man remained silent. He knew that Luo Fengtian was determined and no amount of persuasion would be of any use.

"Okay, I'll help you keep an eye on Sheng Kaiyao, but remember, I'm only responsible for monitoring and will not interfere in the fight between you two."

The mysterious young man finally said.

Luo Fengtian nodded. He knew that this was the mysterious young man’s bottom line.

"Your words are enough."

Luo Fengtian said with satisfaction.

Afterwards, the two discussed some details, and the mysterious young man left the tent and disappeared into the night.

Luo Fengtian sat alone in the tent with a deep look in his eyes, as if he was thinking about something.

"Eight Pillars of the Nation, it's time to end it."

He whispered to himself, with clouds and rain surging in his deep eyes, as if a giant dragon had broken free from its restraints, about to stir up the whole Tianchen Realm.

......

At the same time, Zhou Yiqiao had arrived near the location where Yu Poyun last appeared.

He hid in a dense forest, his spiritual awareness spreading out like water waves, carefully searching for any possible clues.

"Strange, according to the records on the jade slip, Yu Poyun should have disappeared near here, how come there is no trace left?"

Zhou Yiqiao was confused.

He had fought with Yu Poyun before and knew that the other party's cultivation was not weak, but even so, it was not so easy for Yu Poyun to completely erase all traces in front of him.

"Did he discover something and leave early?"

Zhou Yiqiao thought to himself.

At this moment, his eyes were suddenly attracted by a slightly raised ground.

He walked forward quickly and found that there seemed to be something buried under the raised ground.

Zhou Yiqiao carefully dug away the fallen leaves and soil on the ground, revealing a wooden box.

He reached out and gently stroked the surface of the box, feeling the faint fluctuations of spiritual energy remaining on it.

"Is this... a storage box?"

A hint of surprise flashed across Zhou Yiqiao's eyes.

He tried to open the box, but found that the box was protected by a layer of restriction and could not be opened easily.

Zhou Yiqiao pondered for a moment, took out a talisman from his storage bag, and stuck it on the storage box.

The moment the talisman came into contact with the restriction, a dazzling light burst out, and then the restriction was broken.

Zhou Yiqiao opened the storage box and found a jade slip and a bottle of medicine inside.

He first picked up the jade slip, scanned it with his spiritual sense, and his expression suddenly became solemn.

The jade slip was sealed by an ancient restriction. It was not an easy task to crack it in a short time without destroying the contents.

"What should I do?"

Zhou Yiqiao was anxious and at a loss for a moment.

"Little guy, I have seen the ancient restrictions on this jade slip before, and I may be able to help you break it."

Just when he was at a loss, the Blood-Drinking Millstone, which he had intentionally left idle after his promotion, suddenly flew out of the storage bag without his control.

Immediately afterwards, a blood-red smoke gurgled out from the center of the Blood-Drinking Millstone and condensed into the shape of an old man in front of Zhou Yiqiao.

"Senior Xuesha, have you completely mastered the Blood-Drinking Grindstone now?!"

Zhou Yiqiao looked at the old man formed by blood-red smoke in front of him, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

Xuesha smiled slightly and nodded. Although his figure was illusory, the aura he exuded was extremely powerful.

"Yes, I have to thank you for giving me the opportunity over the years. It allowed me to slowly master the power of the advanced level in the Bloodthirsty Grindstone."

"Look, I just took control of the power of the Bloodthirsty Grindstone, and I happened to see you, little fellow, being troubled by this ancient restriction, so I couldn't help but help you."

Zhou Yiqiao couldn't help but sigh when he heard this.

It is said that having an old person in the family is like having a treasure.

Although this Blood Evil Senior's actual cultivation age is only about a thousand years longer than his own, the number of years he has actually experienced is countless times more than his own. Naturally, his knowledge and abilities are far beyond his reach.

"Senior Xuesha, if you can help me break the restriction on this jade slip, I will be very grateful."

Zhou Yiqiao said sincerely.

Xuesha waved his hand and smiled.

"This is just a return of favor. You don't have to be polite to me."

After saying this, the figure of the bloody old man slowly floated towards the jade slip. He waved his hands gently in the air, and blood-red rays of light shot out from his fingertips, wrapping around the jade slip like silk threads.

These rays seemed to have some kind of mysterious power. They wove into a complex pattern on the surface of the jade slip, reflecting the restrictions on the jade slip and gradually penetrating into it.

As time passed, the restrictions on the jade slip began to vibrate slightly, as if some power was awakening inside and resonated with the blood-colored light of the Blood Evil Old Man.

When Zhou Yiqiao saw the movement in front of him, he quickly used his means to block the surrounding space to prevent Yu Poyun and others from noticing the unusual movement and returning to give them a fatal blow.

Fortunately, Zhou Yiqiao was just worrying too much. After a slight resistance, the restriction was easily broken by Senior Xuesha.

"Fortunately, I have fulfilled my mission. Take it and have a look."

Xue Sha threw the jade slip into Zhou Yiqiao's hand and without any hesitation, he returned to his storage bag with the Blood-Drinking Millstone.

"Thank you for your help, senior."

Zhou Yiqiao patted his storage bag to show his gratitude to the old man, and then immediately focused his attention on the jade slip in his hand.

He probed the jade slip with his spiritual sense again. This time, the restriction on the jade slip had disappeared, and his spiritual sense entered the jade slip unimpeded.

The jade slips contained a huge amount of information, including some secret dealings between Yu Poyun and the Sheng family, as well as their plots against Daxuantian.

"This Yu Poyun is actually related to the theft of the Ascension Pill!"

A cold light flashed in Zhou Yiqiao's eyes.

He put away the jade slip and picked up the bottle of pills again, and found that this pill was the unique healing medicine of the Great Xuantian royal family - the Nine-Turn Soul-Restoring Pill.

"Nine-transformation Soul-restoring Pills. The entire Great Xuantian Imperial Family can only produce a few bottles a year. To give away pills of this level at once, this person who has a connection with Yu Poyun in the palace must be of a high status."
