Chapter 191 Cruel Reality
Lu Changan and Shi Manrong were both invited by Huanglong Mountain.
In recent years, Lu Changan and Huanglongshan have a good relationship, at least from outsiders' perspective.
Fairy Shi had worked closely with Huanglongshan before, and even met and talked with real Huanglong.
Funeral ceremony is considered a major etiquette event in the world of cultivating immortals, especially for Daoist Jiedan, there are many people who come to pay homage.
When the relationship is acceptable, if you don't go, it will appear impersonal.
"Manrong is going to go to purchase resources by the way. Huanglong Immortal City has seen a sharp increase in the number of people recently, and the auction will be held soon, and the specifications will be higher than usual."
"Chang'an can decide on his own. Even if he doesn't want to go, Huanglongshan won't blame him."
Shi Manrong knew Lu Changan's concerns.
There may be twists and turns in Huanglong's funeral.
For example, the enemies of Huanglong Mountain took the opportunity to attack.
If you are invited to go, there is a sense of "helping out".
However, the two of Lu Chang'an are outsiders after all, as long as they don't help Huang Longshan forcefully stand out, they won't cause any trouble.
Realist Huanglong has a wide network of contacts, and there are many invitees to the funeral, including some monks from the sect, who have a good relationship with Huanglongshan.
"Since Manrong is going, I might as well go together and take care of each other. However, we must understand the situation in Huanglong Mountain in advance."
Lu Changan nodded.
If Shi Manrong doesn't go, he will probably find an excuse to decline and go to worship later.
But also in Wuqi Mountain, Shi Xianzi will go, and he has received the "favor" of Huanglong Mountain, so he dare not even go to a mere funeral, he will appear cold-tempered.
If Huang Longshan survives the difficulties, there may be prejudice against him in the future, and the outside world's reputation for him will be greatly reduced.
Wu Qishan's vassal monks are full of well-informed people.
The peak master ordered to go on, and soon someone sent over the sorted information.
"One year before the death of the real Huanglong, it is rumored that he has been bedridden and has not left Huanglong Mountain for half a step."
"Ji Yifeng, the eldest disciple of Master Huanglong, has visited Master's old friends and some powerful forces in the past two years, and received a lot of rejection."
"Half a month ago, the 'Sanhu Real Man' came to Huanglong Fairy City again, and he was suspected of being hired, which may be detrimental to Huanglongshan."
…
While Lu Changan was sorting out the information, Wu Qishan welcomed an unexpected visitor.
A fake alchemy-level spiritual pressure descended from the dark clouds rolling in the sky.
"Peak Lord of Wuqi Mountain, come out and meet!"
A bald man in a purple shirt with a fierce face landed between the three main peaks, his voice as deep as a bell.
"Fake Dan real person!"
"He Yuanwu! The fourth disciple of Master Huanglong, how did he get to Mount Wuqi..."
The vassal monks on Wuqi Mountain were frightened, facing the menacing Master He, they hid in the corner and did not dare to say a word.
He Yuanwu, who has a reputation for being fierce and bullying, is not the kind of real person who is easy to deal with.
"I've met Mr. He."
The three peak masters, Lu Changan, Shi Manrong, and Ye Fei, came out to see the ceremony.
"Which gust of wind brought He Zhenren here? If Daoist has any orders, you can go to the main peak to talk."
Shi Manrong said with a dignified demeanor and a slight smile.
In the past, she cooperated with Huang Longshan and dealt with He Yuanwu.
"No need."
He Yuanwu's eyes swept across the three peak masters lightly, and stopped for a while on Shi Manrong and Lu Changan. As for Ye Fei, he was basically ignored.
"He came here this time to warn you that it is best not to go to Huanglong Mountain to attend the funeral. Otherwise, you will bear the consequences!"
This sentence is sound transmission.
The tone is domineering, without any hint of warning or threat.
Hearing the words, Shi Manrong's face changed, but she didn't dare to disobey her.
"He Yuanwu is a good man."
Lu Changan felt happy.
He didn't particularly want to go to Huanglong Mountain to join in the fun, one more thing is worse than one less thing.
But can't find a reasonable excuse.
At this moment, He Yuanwu threatened Lu Changan by coming to his door.
"Dare to ask Master He, is something going to happen to Huanglong Mountain?"
Lu Changan cupped his hands and asked respectfully.
He Yuanwu, he has also dealt with each other, to be precise, he has fought.
However, it was Junior Brother Cheng at the time.
On the surface, this is the first time Lu Changan and He Yuanwu have dealt with each other.
"This matter has nothing to do with you, don't ask more questions!"
He Yuanwu cast a cold glance at Lu Changan, and his figure was accompanied by a gust of black wind and sand, and flew away through the air.
…
Send away this evil spirit.
The three peak masters of Mount Wuqi looked ugly.
The three of them gathered for a while at Xiaoguifeng, dissatisfied with He Yuanwu's behavior.
"For more than ten years after Fu Xuemei formed the alchemy, He Yuanwu behaved with his tail between his legs, and dared not come to Huanglong Mountain area. Now that the real Huanglong passed away, he jumped out without any scruples."
Shi Man has a sarcasm on his face.
"As a traitor of Huanglong Mountain, he is probably more afraid of the development of Huanglong Mountain led by Fu Xuemei than other forces."
It is not difficult for Lu Changan to imagine that he and Fairy Shi were not the only monks who were obstructed by He Yuanwu secretly.
The monks targeted are probably casual cultivators.
"Fairy Master, we might as well wait for the situation to stabilize before we go to pay homage in the future."
Lu Changan's voice transmission.
"That's the only way."
Fairy Shi sighed, but she didn't dare to turn against the real person He Yuanwu. If she was hated, the consequences would be unpredictable.
On the same day, Lu Changan sent a letter to Huang Longshan to express his condolences.
He claimed that he was threatened by a fake Dan Daoist, and he would not dare to go to Huanglong Mountain in the short term.
Doing this way is in line with his personality and difficult to find fault with.
The relationship between Lu Changan and Huang Longshan has only improved in recent years, and there is no real friendship or interest exchange.
The world of cultivating immortals is hot and cold.
…
Ten days later.
Shocking news came from Huanglong Fairy City.
Lu Changan opened a letter from Zheng Centipede, his face was moved, and his mood fluctuated slightly.
It is believed that the number of monks who came to attend the funeral of Master Huang Long was less than one-third of what was expected.
Among them, there were only two real people of Jiedan, and less than ten people of fake Dan.
With Huang Long's connections with him for hundreds of years, only so many high-level monks came, which was beyond Lu Changan's expectations.
That's all.
At the funeral, there was another frightening detail.
The major sects of the Liang Kingdom did not send any high-level monks to come to condolences.
Leaving the Fire Palace, only a Foundation Establishment cultivator was sent to attend the funeral.
For other sects, at most one fake alchemy representative will come.
"The Huanglong Mountain lineage is over!"
Having read half of the letter, Lu Changan felt awe-inspiring, and had already guessed the subsequent development of the matter.
The reality is crueler than expected.
According to the letter.
Before his death, Master Huanglong confessed his funeral and voluntarily gave up a considerable part of the benefits of Huanglong Immortal City.
All parties in Huanglong Immortal City should have no opinion.
After all, there is still a real person in Huanglong Mountain, and the earth dragon beast also retains its strength at the beginning of the third level.
Being able to make money with harmony and get benefits for nothing, no one wants to fight with each other.
However.
During the second half of the funeral, the former hostile forces in Huanglong Mountain were mostly private grievances, and they launched a collective attack.
Without the protection of the high-level sect, the Huanglong Mountain lineage is isolated and helpless, facing two or three times as many enemies.
Of the monks who came to attend the funeral, only a few were willing to fight to the death, and most of them saw that the situation was wrong and took the opportunity to leave.
"Ji Yifeng, the eldest disciple of Huanglong Daoist, used secret techniques in the chaotic battle, dragged down several fake Dan Daoist, and died of overdrawn life..."
"The earth dragon beast desperately blocked the real person in the mid-stage of alchemy, his life and death are unknown, and there are also rumors that he was bombarded to death by the real person's magic weapon."
"Under the cover of Huanglong Mountain, Fu Xuemei was seriously injured and escaped from Huanglong Fairy City. Her whereabouts are unknown. The hostile monks did not form an organized pursuit."
"At dawn the next day, the law enforcement monks from Lihuo Palace arrived. They uphold justice, take charge of mediation, temporarily 'take over' Huanglong Mountain, maintain order in Huanglong Immortal City, and eradicate evildoers and plunderers."
…
"It's really timely to leave the Palace of Fire."
After reading the letter, Lu Changan felt as if the rabbit died and the fox was sad.
Huang Longshan is willing to give up his benefits, and in ordinary times, he can live in peace.
However, Liang Guozong's expedition failed and suffered heavy losses.
Especially Lihuo palace, the biggest loss.
The interests of Huanglong Mountain may not be appreciated by the sects in their heyday, or there is no need to affect their reputation because of it.
Now, after eating this piece of meat, the "wounded body" of Lihuo Palace can also replenish a mouthful of blood.
The only good news is.
Lihuo Palace, as the supreme ruler of Liang Guoxiu's world, still has a little face and did not end in person.
As long as the sect shows its attitude and just ignores it, Huanglong Mountain will fall into isolation, and some people will take advantage of it to rob.
Of course, Huanglong Mountain has made too many enemies in the past hundreds of years of prosperity and prosperity, and now it is facing backlash, which is also an important reason.
The next night, the cave in Xiaopan Peak.
Lu Changan and Shi Xianzi just finished communicating,
"This guy, why are you here again?"
He caressed a section of snowy and smooth beautiful back with his palm, and suddenly frowned slightly.
Right at this moment, a familiar aura of a fake real person quickly broke into Wu Qishan.
"He Zhenren! How could you trespass on the main peak!"
Ye Fei's startled and angry voice came.
With a bang, Xiao Danfeng's formation had not yet reached its full potential, but was violently broken by He Yuanwu's lingering punch.
"He Yuanwu, stop!"
When Lu Changan and Shi Manrong got dressed and rushed to the scene, it was too late.
Ye Fei was lifted in the air by He Yuanwu like a chicken.
"Master He, why did you capture Ye Fei?"
Facing the mighty He Yuanwu, Lu Changan and Shi Manrong didn't dare to get too close, and kept a distance to negotiate.
"I have no intention of killing Ye Yaoshi, I just take him away temporarily for a few days."
He Yuanwu said indifferently, not intending to continue to attack Lu Changan and the two of them.
Lu Changan and Shi Manrong are stronger, and the cave has a quasi-third-order formation, so it is much more difficult to attack.
"Why, it's me again..."
Ye Fei was banned, with a bitter expression on his face.
In Xiaodan Peak, similar situations have not happened once or twice.
"Master He, can you tell me the reason for doing this?"
Lu Changan always felt that He Yuanwu had some intentions in doing this.
"Nothing to do with you."
He Yuanwu didn't want to explain, so he left a sentence before leaving:
"In the past two days, it is best for Wu Qishan not to take in any outsiders, especially those who are seriously injured."
After finishing speaking, he stepped on the light and left Wuqi Mountain quickly.
Lu Changan and Shi Xianzi looked at each other, looking helpless.
"Is there something wrong with Xiaodanfeng's feng shui?"
Looking at the terrain, Lu Changan looked weird when he thought of what had happened in the past.
As for Ye Fei, what he can do is to let the rock mouse remember its personal smell, and then think of a way later.
He Yuanwu wanted to continue messing around in Liang Guo, so that he wouldn't take Ye Fei away in an open and honest manner, and then murder his life afterwards.
Judging from his experience and intuition, Ye Fei should not be in danger of his life, but at most lose money, or suffer a little bit.
In order to analyze the reasons.
Lu Changan and Shi Manrong came to Xiaodan Peak together to check the situation on the spot.
The update on the 13th will be very late, but you can watch it the next morning. (Probably postponed to daytime)
