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

Seeing the ruddy Zhao Zhen, Zhou Yiqiao cupped his hands and thanked him in advance.

"I have troubled fellow Taoist Zhao to arrange a banquet for me. I would like to thank you again, Zhou."

Zhao Zhen waved his hand with a smile, introduced Zhou Yiqiao into the banquet, and said.

"It's just some home-cooked dishes, it doesn't cost a few spiritual stones. Little You Zhou and I are close friends. It's just a small effort to celebrate my little friend's birthday. There's no need to say thank you."

On the banquet, there were four dishes and one soup made from spirit animals and vegetables. Looking at the appearance, you could tell that they were the dishes of Deyilou, which is well-known in the world of immortality.

Zhao Zhen took out a slender gourd from his storage bag and poured a glass of spiritual wine for Zhou Yiqiao.

The aroma of the spirit wine was astonishing to his nose. After the aroma of the wine entered his body, the spiritual energy in Zhou Yiqiao's body became more active.

The nectar enters the throat and turns into pure spiritual energy, which flows into the Dantian.

"This wine is full of spiritual energy and leaves a fragrance on your lips and teeth. I am afraid that Fellow Daoist Zhao will spend a lot of money on it."

Zhou Yiqiao expelled the alcohol smell from his body and opened his mouth to praise.

Zhao Zhen is a wine lover. He laughed heartily when he heard others complimenting his wine.

"It's not worth mentioning. This is the only thing I'll have in my life. I brewed this spiritual wine myself. If you like it, you can take a pot with you later."

Zhou Yiqiao naturally responded with a smile when he heard this.

The two of them drank three rounds of wine and had five dishes, and talked about the current situation of the sect.

Zhao Zhen held the wine glass, squinted his eyes and murmured.

"Although the two parties are still in a stalemate, I always feel that the Ghost Alliance and the Blood River Sect are not using their full strength."

"Now that I have advanced to the later stage of Qi Refining, if all the old, weak, sick and disabled in the sect are exhausted, I will be the first to bear the brunt, so be prepared."

Zhou Yiqiao felt a little strange when he heard this. The benefits offered by the Yaori Sect have not diminished since the war started a year ago.

Many casual cultivators from several surrounding countries were attracted to seek a future.

However, the other party has been using its disciples to face the enemy. As one goes, the other goes wrong, and now the world of immortal cultivation says that the Ghost Alliance has brought shame on itself and can no longer sustain it.

After all, it was about his own life. Zhou Yiqiao put down his chopsticks with a serious face and asked.

"Now everyone is saying that our sect has the upper hand and the situation is great. Why does Fellow Daoist Zhao say this?"

When Zhao Zhen saw Zhou Yiqiao being so serious, he poured some spiritual wine for him and spoke to comfort him.

"Young friend Zhou, there is no need to be so serious. All of this is just some old speculation. Besides, even if my words are correct, it is far from a situation that requires abandoning low-level disciples like me."

"Old man is a master who can't sit still. He has not been idle here for many years. He has visited all the places in Luzhou that have not been affected by the war."

"The reason for this speculation is that I heard in the Xiuxianfang City of Zhulu City that there have been fluctuations in spiritual energy in Yezhou in recent months, as if many monks have broken through to the great realm."

Although Zhulu City was a mortal city built by the royal family of the Liang Kingdom in Luzhou, because it was located on the only way from Luzhou to Yezhou, not only were there a large concentration of mortals, but immortal cultivators also set up a market in this city.

After the war broke out, this city was occupied by the Yaori Sect and became a material transfer point. The news circulating here is indeed more credible.

Zhao Zhen drank the spirit wine in the wine glass in one gulp, made some magic tricks with his hands, and arranged a set of soundproofing bans in the room before he continued.

"If this is just the case, there have been several senior brothers and sisters in my sect who have broken through the realm in the past year, so I won't be afraid."

"But the Demon Slaying Mansion in Qingzhou has been ready to make moves in recent days, and its actions echo those of the Ghost Alliance. That's why I suspect that the Ghost Alliance's power has been used to contact the Demon Slaying Mansion this year."

After Zhao Zhen finished speaking, Zhou Yiqiao said with an expression of disbelief.

"The Demon Slayer Mansion is actually connected to sects like the Ghost Alliance and the Blood River Sect? Could it be that..."

Although the so-called good and evil in the world of immortality are a laughing stock in the face of interests.

However, if the monks of the Demon Slaying Mansion do not act righteously when faced with something that harms the heaven and earth, they will at least develop the inner demons of spiritual cultivation. If the inner demons are not eliminated, it will be difficult to improve their cultivation. At worst, they will backfire on themselves and hundreds of years of hard work will disappear in one breath.

If it was true as Zhao Zhen said, then what surprised Zhou Yiqiao was that the Ghost Alliance, a sect that was originally huddled in the barren Yezhou, could suddenly come up with benefits to persuade the Demon Slayer Mansion.

If what the Ghost Alliance offered was not profit, then Zhou Yiqiao no longer dared to think about the deeper whirlpool behind it.

Zhao Zhen's eyes were deep and he was not drunk at all, but he spoke.

"This old man is not good at drinking and is just talking nonsense. What does the sect's decision have to do with low-level disciples like us? The Ghost Alliance has been struggling for a long time, and we, the Yaori Sect, will surely win a great victory!"

Both of them are thoughtful people. Until this happens, even if no one is outside the room, they cannot continue to talk in depth and change the topic.

"By the way, my sect's Fairy Nongyu has announced a few days ago that she will be in seclusion to condense her true essence. It is estimated that after she comes out of seclusion, she can start preparing for the elixir formation and get married to senior brother."

The dishes on the table had long been used up. The two of them were sipping spiritual tea in front of the table when Zhao Zhen suddenly gossiped.

This Fairy Nongyu is the Baili Daiyu who was by her side when Xie Junzhi taught the Taoism.

Because Baili Daiyu is the most talented among the Foundation Establishment Generation, he is known as the two most outstanding talents together with Li Henyan, the Tayan Fairy of the Demon Slayer Mansion who is famous for his martial arts.

Zhou Yiqiao still remembered the scene of Xie Senior Brother that day, and the scene where the current Master Yushu announced in front of everyone that Baili Daiyu had become a Taoist couple after forming an elixir, and he found it quite interesting for a while.

But for some reason, the image of another person suddenly appeared in Zhou Yiqiao's mind. He attributed it to being sleepy after the meal and dismissed it from his mind.

"Senior Brother Xie and Senior Sister Baili are truly enviable couples."

Zhou Yiqiao sipped the spirit tea and spoke softly, neither salty nor bland.

Seeing that Zhou Yiqiao, who had not even spoken the word "female" for such a long time, actually spoke up about this matter, Zhao Zhen also became interested and spoke up.

"I heard that Senior Sister Baili once had a childhood sweetheart, and the two of them were already privately engaged for life. After that childhood sweetheart went to Central Continent to participate in the trial, and never returned, Senior Sister Baili joined our sect. Thank you, senior brother, for your mutual love."

Zhou Yiqiao listened carefully, remembered the matter in his heart, and hurriedly stopped him.

"Fellow Daoist Zhao, why don't you use your spiritual power to dispel the drunkenness and look at the nonsense you are talking about after drinking. Senior brothers and sisters are indifferent to rumors, but it does not mean that we can talk nonsense."

Zhao Zhen knew that he was on a whim and said something indiscriminately, so he immediately borrowed a donkey to go downhill.

"It's true that after a few sips of spirit wine, this old habit of talking without hesitation has returned. It's just nonsense. Little friend Zhou has heard it and passed it by. Don't take it to heart."

Zhou Yiqiao nodded slightly, smiled and said nothing, and the two of them quietly passed the matter over.
