Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    Early the next morning, Jiang Chen was awakened by the Hundred Poison Demon Lord, who asked him to prepare to go to the City Lord's Mansion to attend the alchemist's banquet hosted by Huang Yuantong.  This banquet was nominally for the alchemists who came to attend the Jingzhou Fair to cleanse themselves from the dust.  But in fact, everyone knew that Huang Yuantong wanted to select a high-level alchemist to refine the ambergris blood-clearing pill for his daughter.  Jiang Chen finished washing up, and then walked out of the door with Baidu Demon Lord, when he suddenly smelled a gust of fragrant wind, and then heard a clear and sweet female voice: "Eh? Jiang Chen? Why are you talking to Baidu?  "Senior Du, are you coming out together?" He looked up and saw that it was Zhou Ling who showed favor to him at the auction yesterday and made him owe a favor.  This woman is wearing an emerald green skirt, which looks even more charming in the golden sunlight.  Before Jiang Chen could answer, Baidu Demon Lord asked strangely: "Ling girl, how do you know Jiang Chen? Logically speaking, you should have never met before!" "We have never met before.  But we met at Tingxiang Xiaoxie last night!" Zhou Ling stared at Jiang Chen and said, "Brother Jiang, why are you here with Senior Baidu?" When Jiang Chen was thinking about how to answer,  However, Baidu Demon Lord helped him out first: "Ling girl, Jiang Chen is the descendant of an old friend of mine. He came to participate in the Jingzhou Trade Fair and had no place to live for the time being, so he stayed here temporarily By the way,  Why did you come to me today?" "That's it!" Zhou Ling breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Senior Baidu, I came to you originally to tell you that I found a high-level alchemist and he can help me.  Maybe I can cooperate with Master Shangguan to refine the Dragon Saliva Blood-clearing Pill and revive my beautiful sister. But now it seems that you have already known each other, so I am superfluous! Now you must be going to the city lord's mansion to attend the alchemist's banquet.  Selection?" She couldn't help but feel a little heartbroken at this moment. She bought a blood and bone skeleton for 230,000 spirit stones and gave it to Jiang Chen.  The reason was to invite Jiang Chen to participate in the alchemist selection. She believed that Jiang Chen had the ability to refine the ambergris blood-clearing pill.  But she didn't expect that this guy was going to participate in the first place, so she wasted her spiritual stones.  However, she soon realized that this favor investment was not a loss.  In the past, I only thought that Jiang Chen was an alchemist and a foundation-building disciple of the Heavenly Demon Sect.  But now there is a new discovery: Jiang Chen actually has a close relationship with the Hundred Poison Demon Lord, a casual cultivator who is famous for his use of poisons. If he befriends him, his relationship with the Hundred Poison Demon Lord will become closer.  ¡°And I heard that Baidu Demon Lord said that Jiang Chen was the descendant of one of his old friends.  But this old poisonous guy is a Nascent Soul cultivator, and his old friend is probably also a Nascent Soul cultivator.  Doesn't that mean.  Is there also a Nascent Soul cultivator behind Jiang Chen?  When Zhou Ling thought about this, she looked at Jiang Chen with admiration.  Although she knew that Tianmo Sect had no Nascent Soul Stage monks.  But what do you know about Jiang Chen not being favored by an old monster in the Nascent Soul stage?  He was accepted as his disciple or his descendant.  Although some secluded masters themselves do not often go out for activities, their descendants and relatives are often walking around.  These people are also unpredictable and have no trace of their actions.  Some are willing to wander around the world and become casual cultivators, while others want to join a certain force and stand out.  And Jiang Chen probably belongs to the latter group in all likelihood.  Thinking of this, she also restrained her slight discomfort just now.  Seeing Jiang Chen and the Hundred Poison Demon Lord nodding in agreement, they still said with a bright smile: "In that case, let's go to the City Lord's Mansion together! Uncle Huang and I haven't seen each other for a long time." The Hundred Poison Demon Lord was already there.  A very large and luxurious beast car was prepared at the entrance of the courtyard, and then the three of them got on the beast car.  Heading towards the city lord's mansion.  At this time, Baidu Demon Lord explained to Jiang Chen: It turns out that Zhou Ling is Huang Xiuli¡¯s best friend, and the two are like sisters.  Very emotional.  After Huang Xiuli's accident, Zhou Ling also put down her identity as the granddaughter of the head of the Demon Sect and ran around.  Look for elixirs and remedies everywhere.  Everyone in the casual cultivator alliance was deeply moved.  Huang Yuantong even gave Zhou Ling an alliance leader's token. When Ling Ru met with the alliance leader, he allowed her to act cheaply in Jiangling Mansion.  Jiang Chen finally understood why Kang Lianzuo was so afraid of Zhou Ling during the auction.  Even if the Sha Yao Sect is stronger than the Rogue Cultivator Alliance, it is still a powerful dragon that cannot overwhelm a local snake.  It turns out that there is such a layer of relationship in the relationship.  "By the way, Brother Jiang, I heard that there are many alchemists invited to the city lord's mansion to attend the banquet this time. They are all people with a few skills. Almost no alchemists dare to go. It is said that all of them are second-class alchemists.  I heard that if you can help Alliance Leader Huang successfully refine the ambergris blood-clearing elixir, you will definitely receive a very generous reward. In the name of the Rogue Cultivator Alliance, and Alliance Leader Huang is very interested in my beautiful sister.  You won't treat others poorly if you love me. Brother Jiang, you have to seize the opportunity!" Zhou Ling reminded in a pleasant voice.  She was quite clear about the inside story of this banquet.    Jiang Chen smiled, he didn't care how much Huang Yuantong was paid, as long as he could refine this ambergris blood-clearing pill and let the Hundred Poison Demon Lord owe him a favor, that would be enough.  You must know that it is very rare to have a Nascent Soul Stage monk owe you the favor of a Foundation Establishment Stage monk.  Especially in terms of cultivation and skills, if he can give careful guidance, he will benefit a lot.  Not long after, the beast cart stopped at the door of the city lord's mansion.  This city lord's mansion is very grand and magnificent, and it is a house that covers an extremely wide area.  The gate at the entrance of the courtyard is not much smaller than the city gate, and animal carts can drive in directly.  After entering the gate, there is a huge square. Now there are dozens of beast carts parked in the square. There are also some badges and marks on the cars. It seems that they are owned by the alchemists who participated in this banquet.  .  After Jiang Chen and others got out of the car, a middle-aged man wearing the badge of the Loose Cultivators Alliance came forward, bowed his hands with a smile on his face and said: "Senior Bai Du, Fairy Zhou, Fellow Daoist Jiang, you are finally here.  This way, please!" After saying that, he leaned slightly and made a "please" gesture.  Then he walked ahead to lead the way.  Jiang Chen couldn't help but be secretly frightened, because this person seemed to be a housekeeper based on his attire, but he actually had a mid-stage Foundation Establishment cultivation. It seemed that his status in the city lord's palace was definitely extraordinary.  "Hey! How do you know about me?" He immediately asked curiously.  It is not surprising that the housekeeper knows Baidu Demon Lord and Zhou Ling. After all, one is Huang Xiuli's master and the other is Huang Xiuli's best friend. They must have come here often before, but this is the first time for him to come here.  After the housekeeper heard this, he smiled slightly and said: "Young Daoist Jiang is a high disciple of Tianmo Sect. He is a second-level alchemist at a young age, which is very rare in the alchemy world. Moreover, Fairy Zhou can make Zhou Xianzi not hesitate to offend Kang Lianzuo, but also  How could our alliance leader not pay attention to someone who spends 230,000 spirit stones?" Jiang Chen was stunned after hearing this, and then realized that Jiangling City is the territory of the Rogue Cultivator Alliance. As the leader of the Rogue Cultivator Alliance, Huang Yuantong,  I don¡¯t know how many eyes and ears have been placed throughout the city, just afraid of every move of the monks in the city.  He knew everything about it, and there must have been some of his people among the ghost monks' private trading meeting last night.  Otherwise, the story would not be so clear.  When Zhou Ling heard this, he spat lightly, blinked his beautiful big eyes and asked: "Steward Zhang, how many alchemists were invited to the banquet today? Has Master Shangguan arrived already?" "Master Shangguan was at the city lord last night  We have settled in the mansion, and many alchemy colleagues have arrived early and are exchanging alchemy experiences with each other in the main hall. You are relatively late!" said the steward Zhang with a slight smile.  After a while, he led the three of them to an ancient place.  In front of the spacious and bright hall.  At the entrance of the temple, there are many monks from the casual cultivator alliance wearing badges as guards to maintain order. It seems that the security is quite tight.  After entering the main hall, Jiang Chen found that the main hall was very spacious.  Surrounded by a row of tables and chairs made of red sandalwood, the middle was empty, forming an open space of more than a hundred feet in radius.  It seems that it is mostly a display place for exercises or assessments.  There are already hundreds of people sitting here in the hall, nearly a hundred of them are wearing alchemy attire.  Look at their faces.  Obviously he is quite old.  However, they all looked indifferent, and they did not feel restrained in the slightest that this was the headquarters of the Loose Cultivator Alliance.  On the contrary, because I met so many comrades, I was happily discussing alchemy issues.  Although there were less than a hundred alchemists attending the banquet.  But each of them was accompanied by relatives and friends, or alchemy boys, apprentices, guards, etc., so the number of people in the hall increased several times.  Jiang Chen noticed that at a table not far from the entrance, someone was discussing in a low voice: "Huang Yuantong, the leader of the Loose Cultivator Alliance, can't just refine the 'Ambergris Blood Clearing Pill'? Do you actually need so many alchemists? You know  They actually invited President Shangguan here! " "Although the refining of the Ambergris Blood Pill is very complicated and requires the cooperation of more than one person, it actually doesn't require so many people, at most two or three people are enough.  Exactly. Leader Huang must be looking for the most suitable two people among these alchemists to cooperate with Master Shangguan. After all, time is tight, and he doesn't want to delay the treatment of his beloved daughter.  There will be a small gift, and we can't afford to suffer!" Another person obviously understood the situation and talked eloquently.  "There is still another selection?" Jiang Chen frowned a little after hearing this.  Because he has seen that most of the alchemists present are at the Golden Pill stage, and there are very few who are at the Foundation Establishment stage.  Although I don't know their alchemy level, I guess I am definitely at the bottom among these alchemists.    "Let's take a look at the situation first! Anyway, just do your best! I don't know exactly how to refine the Ambergris Blood Pill, or how to select President Shangguan. I'll see how he does it then.  Arrange it!" Baidu Demon Lord said.  Apparently he wasn't very confident either.  Jiang Chen could only nod helplessly, and then, together with Zhou Ling and her two junior brothers, they found a table and sat down. Naturally, they sat with a group of foundation-building monks.  But as usual, the Hundred Poison Demon Lord was invited to the top VIP table by Butler Zhang, where all the old monsters at the Nascent Soul Stage were sitting.  Between the two of them, there are the largest number of golden elixir stage monks.  "The guards and attendants who are body refiners, as well as the alchemy apprentices in the Qi refinement stage have no seats at all, and can only stand behind their masters with their hands behind their hands.  The entire hall looked clearly divided.  In the main seat of the main hall, an old man wearing a black robe sat.  This old man is thin and thin, with white hair and a trace of sadness on his face.  And sitting next to him were two old men who looked to be in their fifties.  One person has thick eyebrows and big eyes, a face with a Chinese character, and a very majestic appearance.  The other person has a haggard appearance and a thin body, but his small eyes are very sharp, giving people a feeling that he is not easy to mess with.  Jiang Chen tried to release his consciousness, but as soon as it touched the three people, it disappeared like a stone sinking into the sea.  His heart suddenly trembled, and he withdrew his consciousness.  He knew that the cultivation levels of these three people were far higher than his own.  Zhou Ling whispered to Jiang Chen: "Brother Jiang, these are the three giants of the Rogue Cultivator Alliance. The leader in the middle is Huang Yuantong, who has the middle stage of Nascent Soul cultivation. On the left and right of him are the two deputy leaders, both of whom have  In the early stage of Nascent Soul cultivation. The majestic-looking one on the left is Wang Zijun, and the thin one on the right is Kang Jianfei, the father of Kang Lianzuo who competed with us yesterday. This man is very scheming and ambitious, just like Wang Zijun.  The relationship is very tense, and it depends on Huang Yuantong to mediate it. It seems that it is not good for a gang to be too loosely managed. " Jiang Chen nodded. There are actually three Nascent Soul monks in this loose cultivator alliance.  Extremely powerful.  No wonder that although it is only a loose alliance, it is enough for five first-class sects with many Nascent Soul Stage monks to dare not underestimate its strength.  (To be continued)
