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

After hearing what Mu Honglian said, Zhou Yiqiao nodded and stood there quietly, his eyes falling on the giant castle high on the mountain.

There, stands the largest fortress in the entire Qianyun Island.

This fortress is the cave of Qianyun Lao Dao, Qianyun Immortal Pavilion.

It is said that Qianyun Lao Taoist is extremely low-key in life. Building such a large and eye-catching residence also symbolizes the glory of Qianyun Island and establishes a spiritual leader for the Qianyun Island monks.

"No matter how powerful Qianyun Taoist is, he can't possibly occupy this important place for more than a thousand years and establish such a huge casual cultivator force here, right?"

Various doubts arose in Zhou Yiqiao's heart.

"Besides, among the three major demon sects, there are many capable people who are stronger than Qianyun Lao Dao. Any one of them can easily level Qianyun Island."

"I'm afraid that there are a lot of exchanges of interests behind the fact that the three major demon sects can allow Qianyun Lao Dao to station again..."

When Zhou Yiqiao was thinking wildly, the guard left and came back, followed by a fat man wearing gold and silver with a rich and sinister face. It was the Ji Fengyue that Mu Honglian mentioned.

Zhou Yiqiao didn't expect that Ji Fengyue would go out to greet him in person, so he quickly bowed his hands and saluted.

"I, the White Bone Taoist Master of the Nether Demon Sect, sat down to teach Zhou Yiqiao personally. I have met Taoist Fellow Ji."

As soon as these words came out, not only Ji Fengyue was stunned, but also Mu Honglian, who had been with Zhou Yiqiao for some time, looked sideways.

Zhou Yiqiao didn't know why and said doubtfully.

"Fellow Daoist Ji, what is this?"

Ji Fengyue reacted quickly and laughed.

"Fellow Daoist Zhou has gained a reputation among the Netherworld Demon Sect over the years. Even the casual cultivators like me on Qianyun Island are talking about it."

"My master has mentioned it many times in front of several of our disciples that he is envious of Senior Bai Gu for accepting an outstanding talent for the Netherworld Demon Sect."

Having said this, Ji Fengyue paused deliberately and then continued.

"When I saw him today, he really lived up to expectations. Fellow Daoist Zhou is not only extraordinary in strength, but also has a majestic appearance, which is amazing."

Ji Fengyue flattered her for a while, and although Zhou Yiqiao was cold-hearted, he felt quite comfortable after being praised by him.

"Fellow Daoist Ji is ridiculous. I only relied on some adventures and some lucky opportunities to get to where I am today."

"Haha, what a fluke. Fellow Daoist Zhou is really humble."

Ji Fengyue shook her head when she heard this, then put away her polite smile, changed the subject, and went straight to the topic.

"Fellow Daoist Zhou came here specifically to visit Ji. I'm afraid he wants the bone-transforming fire in Ji's hands, right?"

After hearing what Ji Fengyue said, Zhou Yiqiao did not deny it.

"That's true."

When Ji Fengyue heard Zhou Yiqiao's affirmative answer, a smile formed on her lips.

"In this case, we might as well open the skylight and speak frankly, and Ji will tell the truth."

"If Fellow Daoist Zhou had come earlier, Ji could have given this bone-transforming fire to Fellow Daoist Zhou, which would also be regarded as forming a good relationship with Fellow Daoist Zhou."

"But what a coincidence, a few days ago, one of Ji's friends in the Central Continent Sanctuary has reached an agreement with Ji and is planning to purchase this bone-transforming fire, so now I'm afraid I have to live up to the kindness of fellow Taoist Zhou."

Zhou Yiqiao frowned slightly when he heard this, and his words became a little urgent.

"Zhou is also determined to get this bone-transforming fire. I don't know if Daoist Fellow Ji's friend can give up his love. Zhou can give him enough compensation to ensure that the other party is satisfied."

When Ji Fengyue heard this, she waved her hand.

"Don't worry, Fellow Daoist Zhou. After all, this bone-transforming fire is still a gimmick used by Ji to attract monks from all walks of life to attend the trading conference. Naturally, it is impossible to trade it before the trading conference."

"If Fellow Daoist Zhou really needs this thing urgently, he can discuss it with Ji's friend in person after seven days. As long as the other party is willing to sell it, Ji will have no problem with it. It all depends on what both parties like."

When Zhou Yiqiao heard this, a hint of disappointment flashed across his brows, but he no longer struggled.

"Then please help Daoist Ji to introduce you to me."

Ji Fengyue nodded after hearing this, and then spoke again.

"Fellow Daoist Zhou came here in such a hurry. He must have not decided where to live. How about staying at Ji's house for a while and waiting for the trading conference to be held?"

Zhou Yiqiao was startled when he heard this, but then he showed a look of joy.

"Thank you Daoyou Ji for your kindness, but this is too disturbing to Daoyou Ji."

"Haha, it's okay, it's okay, Ji is just trying to make friends with fellow Taoist Zhou."

Seeing Ji Fengyue's insistence, Zhou Yiqiao did not refuse. He turned around and threw three thousand spirit stones to Mu Honglian. After sending the opponent away, he followed Ji Fengyue into his palace.

The interior of Ji Fengyue's palace is as magnificent and luxurious as its appearance.

After the two were seated respectively, Ji Fengyue ordered the maid to bring them fine wine and food, and then raised a glass to invite them to drink.

After some pushing and changing cups, the two of them drank to their heart's content.

During the dinner, Ji Fengyue introduced Zhou Yiqiao to his friend from the Central Continent Sanctuary.

It turned out that the friend's name was Wu Meng, from the Sword Pavilion of the Central Continent Holy Sect. He came to trade this bone-transforming fire in order to use this bone-transforming fire to temper a magic sword he had recently forged.

Although I don't know what price Wu Meng plans to offer at the trading conference, but judging from the way the other party is determined to win, he must be able to offer a jaw-dropping price.

Ji Fengyue hinted to Zhou Yiqiao overtly and covertly, asking him to prepare sufficient spiritual stones and resources so as not to be short of money and return with nothing.

"Thank you, fellow Taoist Ji, for the tip. Zhou really needs to make some preparations in case the spirit stone is not available when the time comes."

With that said, he stood up.

Ji Fengyue understood what Zhou Yiqiao meant and immediately called for a servant to take Zhou Yiqiao to a quiet room in the palace.

"Senior Zhou, if you need anything, you can call on me at any time."

The servant finished speaking respectfully and then withdrew.

Zhou Yiqiao walked into this room and looked around first, with a look of helplessness in his eyes.

This house is still in the style favored by Ji Fengyue. The decoration is extremely luxurious. Even the tables, chairs and beds are carved from jade.

In addition, there are a large number of calligraphy, paintings and even exquisite sculptures placed in the room, giving it a real sense of wealth.

Zhou Yiqiao has always kept things simple and dislikes extravagance. When he saw this scene, he always felt a little awkward.

However, he also knew that this was not the time to be picky, so he quickly calmed down.

Zhou Yiqiao walked to the bed, sat down cross-legged, closed his eyes, and calculated how to quickly obtain enough resources to prepare for the trading conference seven days later.

After a long time, he finally opened his eyes, and at the same moment, his eyes completely regained their clarity.

"It seems that I have to return to my old business and ripen some rare spiritual plants."
