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

After hearing Wu Ning tell Xiahou Zhan's current situation, Zhou Yiqiao secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

Don't blame him for judging a gentleman's heart with a villain's heart. In fact, he has been treating people in this way since he was a member of Yanzhou Yaori Sect, and he has already formed such a logical thinking.

Even though he now has the protection of Elder Skeleton, the outside world will no longer treat him as before, and it is difficult for Zhou Yiqiao to change this habit for a while.

Therefore, although he felt happy in his heart, he still looked sad on the surface.

"It's also my fault that I didn't explicitly reject Brother Mo and Brother Xiahou back then, otherwise they wouldn't have hurriedly found a fellow disciple to form a team and go to the secret realm in the end."

Wu Ning also felt sad and patted Zhou Yiqiao's shoulder to comfort him.

"How can you blame Brother Zhou for this matter?"

"Mo Hetong and Xia Houzhan wanted to gain great power in the family, so they ignored their strength and wanted to participate in the massacre feast in order to get a good ranking on the death list."

"According to Brother Zhou's remarks, isn't Wu also the culprit?"

"If Wu hadn't entered the deceased list and taken over part of the family affairs from my father, they would not have seen hope and made such an unwise move."

Having said this, Wu Ning paused and looked at Zhou Yiqiao with a hint of depth.

"Forget it, it was Zhou who made Brother Wu something else."

"It's rare for the two of us to see each other. Let's not mention it for now. Why don't we talk for a while."

"Alright."

Wu Ning nodded in agreement.

"Let's go, I know a good teahouse with an elegant environment and good taste."

The two walked out of Wu's residence side by side and came to the south of the city together, stopping in front of a tea shop called "Yuexiangju".

"The tea here tastes really good, even my father is full of praise."

Both of them are human spirits and will not be affected by temporary moods.

When they walked into Yuexiang Residence, they were all smiling.

As soon as I stepped into the teahouse, the welcoming boy came forward with a smile.

Wu Ning waved for the other party to leave, and then led Zhou Yiqiao straight into the window seat on the second floor.

As soon as he sat down, he asked the waiter to bring him a few pots of tea.

Zhou Yiqiao was not polite. He picked up the celadon cup on the table and took a sip of tea.

The light aroma flows on the tip of the tongue, refreshing the soul and relaxing the whole body.

"I haven't congratulated Brother Zhou on his advancement to the Nascent Soul, and I hope he will live forever!"

Wu Ning picked up the tea cup and toasted Zhou Yiqiao.

Zhou Yiqiao waved his hand and smiled.

"Brother Wu's false praise is just an occasional insight and cannot be taken seriously."

"Besides, Brother Wu has also advanced to Nascent Soul, so we should be happy together."

Wu Ning shook his head.

"No way, compared to Brother Zhou, I'm just lucky."

Wu Ning was modest, so Zhou Yiqiao changed the subject.

The demon infant in his dantian didn't know the bottom of it himself, so he didn't dare to talk too much about cultivation issues with others.

"Speaking of which, I would also like to trouble Brother Wu to say thank you to Miss Wu for me."

"Without the Nascent Soul elixir given by Miss Wu, Zhou would not have been able to advance to the Nascent Soul realm so smoothly."

Wu Ning's face suddenly turned ugly when he heard Zhou Yiqiao talking about Wu Zuirong.

"Brother Zhou doesn't know. My eldest sister is having a hard time now."

"Oh? How do you say this?"

Zhou Yiqiao narrowed his eyes and asked with interest.

In his eyes, a monk like Xiang Wu Zuirong, who is both a direct descendant of a large family and a descendant of the Holy Sect, should never encounter difficulties in his life's practice.

Moreover, even in the only interaction between the two, Zhou Yiqiao could see that for a monk as determined as Wu Zuirong, unless there was complete force majeure, no difficulty could restrain the girl.

"Well, it's a long story..."

Upon hearing Zhou Yiqiao's inquiry, Wu Ning sighed. After a moment of silence, he finally slowly revealed the reason.

It turned out that after Wu Zuirong returned to Xianxin Tower, he temporarily abandoned all his affairs and concentrated on refining the phantom treasure box and could not come out of seclusion.

While she was practicing in seclusion, one of Wu Zuirong's personal maids, in Wu Zuirong's name, took out a treasure called the Tiandao Crystal from the treasure house of Xianxin Tower and fled far away.

This piece of Tiandao crystal is the treasure left by the first building owner. It is said that the founder of Xianxin Building found it in an ancient ruins.

This treasure not only contains extremely strong heavenly luck, it can change the destiny against the heavens and bring an additional blessing from heaven to the user.

It even has endless magical uses and is a top resource that is sought after by immortal cultivators all over the world.

It is said that after the first generation owner of Xianxin Tower obtained this treasure, the powerful men of the major holy sects have been coveting it.

However, He Xianxinlou, as the biggest killer in the Tianchen world, stopped him. Under layers of protection, no one could see the true face of this treasure.

Now times have changed, and everyone thought that this treasure had been forgotten by all forces in Tianchen Realm, but it was actually stolen by Wu Zuirong's most trusted personal maid, and it also escaped the pursuit of various masters.

Wu Zuirong's family was not the only one in Xianxin Tower. Many elders who opposed Wu Zuirong took this opportunity to join forces with the second-ranked disciples to criticize her.

Wu Zuirong suffered a lot of oppression during this period, and had to choose to stay in seclusion on the pretext of backlash from the magic weapon sacrifice.

"The maid disappeared from the world after stealing the Heavenly Dao Crystal, and her whereabouts are unknown. Sister, she didn't even have the chance to capture this female general to make up for her past mistakes."

Speaking of this, Wu Ning was filled with anger and gritted his teeth.

Zhou Yiqiao never expressed his position from the beginning to the end. He lowered his head and sipped the spiritual tea, his expression hidden behind the mist rising from the tea cup.

Halfway through, he regretted his talk.

No matter how strange it is for a maid to disappear out of thin air.

The mere fact that this saint can enter the Xianxin Tower treasure house that many Holy Sect forces cannot penetrate and take away the Heavenly Dao Crystal is full of doubts.

If Zhou Yiqiao's guess is correct, this matter may have been the work of forces within Xianxin Tower from beginning to end.

Even Zhou Yiqiao knew about this. As the Wu family was the backbone of the Netherworld Demon Sect family faction, and there were countless think tanks in the family, it was impossible for them to not think of this.

However, they still chose to be patient and allowed this saint to steal the Heavenly Dao Crystal and take it away. This shows that the forces involved behind it are quite profound.

Zhou Yiqiao wanted to clean up the cause and effect between Mo Hetong and Xiahou Zhan, but he would not stupidly get involved in the power struggle of the Holy Sect.

Otherwise, not to mention his little Nascent Soul cultivator, even the Bone Elder behind him might suffer a disaster.
