In Gongming City, in the restaurant of the Heavenly Saint Sect, Lin Xiao once again invited the principals of many businesses, but the ones who could be invited this time were all those who had lent money to Tianyun Prefecture a few years ago.

Before the banquet began, Lin Xiao paid off the loans one by one, among which Qingfeng Pavilion in addition to the shopkeeper, there was also a monk from the Spiritual Light Period, after all, the Dao Fruit Tree was too valuable, he didn't dare to be a shopkeeper easily, and he couldn't afford it.

Since Lin Xiao killed Lu Muyang and hit Lu Yan hard, Lin Xiao's reputation has spread to more than a dozen countries in the southwest of Nanzhou, Lin Xiao's combat power is enough to make people look sideways, and other idle Lingguang monks dare not compete with it, such as Xiang Guo in the east of Lu Guo, who came to Tianyun Prefecture as soon as possible, saying that he wanted to coexist peacefully with Tianyun Prefecture, and the two sides should not gather troops and horses on the border, everyone is a friend.

It was precisely because of this that Lin Xiao had the courage to let the rest of the Lingguang Monks enter Gongming City, because Lin Xiao was sure to deal with any Lingguang Monk.

The force behind Qingfeng Pavilion is the Wei State, and the Wei State once had the reputation of Qiang Wei, five or six thousand years ago, the strength of the Wei State was stronger than the current Song State, there were three Shenxu monks in the country, and the auction in Nanzhou was second only to Qi Qin, a big country, and it was the second grade of power in Nanzhou, so it was called Qiang Wei.

However, these three Divine Void Monks failed to break through the seventh realm, and they all sat down and fell, and as soon as the Divine Void Monk died, the Wei State began to weaken, and then although another Divine Void Monk appeared, he accidentally fell when he traveled outside, and failed to revitalize the Wei State.

In the past two thousand years, the Wei State has been weakening, and even the Divine Void Monks have not appeared again, and the Lingguang Monks are becoming fewer and fewer, and now there are only five people, and they are still in the process of weakening, so this Dao Fruit Tree has a different meaning for them, after all, only when the number of Daogang Monks increases, can Lingguang Monks appear more.

Tianyun Prefecture does what it says, and the promised interest, Dao Ji Dan, and Dao Fruit Tree are all fulfilled, which makes many businesses have a better impression of Tianyun Prefecture, and above the banquet, the praise for Lin Xiao is also overflowing, and he continues to praise it.

After the banquet, the Lingguang monk of Qingfeng Pavilion also had a secret talk with Lin Xiaomi, talking about the in-depth cooperation between the two countries, although the strength of Wei State is not as good as before, but the emaciated camel is bigger than a horse, much stronger than Tianyun Prefecture, and more importantly, people have a background there.

The Wei State has been inherited for tens of thousands of years, and its history is not shorter than that of the Qi State, and there are many fifth-order spiritual mountains in the country, so they also have a lot of high-level elixirs, and there are fifth- and sixth-order elixirs maturing every year.

However, the alchemy level of Wei State is very low, not only does there not have a fifth-order alchemist, but there is not even a fourth-order high-grade, and the best alchemist is only a fourth-order mid-grade, and the potential is exhausted.

And Wei Guo already knew that there were high-level alchemists in Tianyun Prefecture, and from the auction of Dao Ji Dan, they guessed that there were at least fourth-order high-grade alchemists in Tianyun Prefecture, and they had already locked Li Muxue.

Therefore, it is very easy for Li Muxue of the Lingguang Cultivator to become a fifth-order alchemist, and once he succeeds, then the benefits will be great for the Wei State.

You must know that Wei has the name of Qiang Wei, and it has this heritage, so it was suppressed by the big countries above the Song State, and the suppression method was the fifth-order pill, and the big countries of the Song State completely monopolized the refining of the fifth-order pills and above, and the fifth- and sixth-order elixirs that were matured every year in the Wei State were sold to the big countries of the Song State in exchange for the fifth-order pills, but the price was extremely expensive and they were exploited miserably.

Without enough fifth-order elixir to use, the cultivation of the Lingguang cultivators of the Wei State was very slow, and it was normal for them to ascend to the first level in fifty years, and according to the age at which they broke through the spiritual light, there was no chance to impact the Divine Void before the age of eight hundred, and it was precisely because of this that the Wei State continued to weaken.

If there were no other channels to get enough fifth-order pills, it was possible that another one or two thousand years ago, the Wei State would threaten to destroy the country, which was also the reason why the Wei State privately cooperated with Tianyun Prefecture.

Lin Xiao naturally agreed to this, according to Lin Xiao's knowledge, Wu Muyang and Lu Yan also rarely take fifth-order pills, not because they have no money, but because the big countries don't sell them to you at all, if you want to buy them, you can go to Zhongzhou, and Zhongzhou can't buy them if you want to, and now I only know that Yun Shaoyang borrowed the relationship of the Hou family to barely keep up with the consumption of pills.

The background of the Heavenly Saint Sect is too poor, although the fifth-order elixir has been planted a lot, it is still a long time before the maturity period, the fifth-order elixir is slightly better, it will take thousands of years to mature, and the Heavenly Saint Sect will continue to reduce the maturity time for more than two hundred years, so for a long time, Li Muxue will not be able to gather enough materials for the fifth-order elixir, but now with the cooperation of the Wei State, it will be different, as long as there is money, there is hope to buy enough materials.

After the secret talk, Lin Xiao sent the other party out of the country, and the cooperation between the two countries will be carried out secretly in the future, mainly relying on the channel of Qingfeng Pavilion, which will be very secretive, so on the surface, there is not much communication between the two.

After defeating the Chunyang Palace, Lin Xiao became the focus of Tianyun Prefecture, and was also pushed above the feudal wave, and at the same time, Tianyun Prefecture was like an independent kingdom, and many things had to be decided by Lin Xiao, which greatly increased Lin Xiao's workload.

For this reason, Lin Xiao had to leave Jia Mengran, who was going back to Wind and Fire Island, and replace him with a person, and then let Jia Mengran become Lin Xiao's spokesperson to deal with the affairs of the entire Tianyun Prefecture, such as dealing with some disputes and the like.

And Lin Xiao is concentrating on dealing with some internal affairs, mainly in terms of the teaching of new disciples, this time the Heavenly Saint Sect has lost more than 4,000 people, which cannot be made up for in a few years, and even many management positions in the sect are vacant, so Lin Xiao feels that he must seize the reputation of the newcomer.

This stay is five years, knowing that after three batches of disciples graduated from the New Disciple Academy, Lin Xiao left the academy, and in the past few years, the Heavenly Saint Sect has three more Daogang monks to break through, two of them broke through with Dao Ji Dan, and one of them failed, because the Daogang monks who lost in the war made up for it.

However, when it came to Daogang monks, Lin Xiao was still angry, because before the war, there were two Daogang who had traveled out and did not come back, and they avoided the war until the end of the war.

So Lin Xiao made a decision, expelled the two, directly declared them traitors, and asked them to repay the sect's investment in them, so that they could gather and disperse, or they would be hunted down to the end.

But those two didn't even dare to come back, they disappeared directly, out of the monitoring of the night owls, the night owls were understaffed, and they were in the middle of the continent, so the Heavenly Saint Sect had nothing to do with them.

Although the night owl has issued a chase and kill order, several years have passed, and no one has been found, and Lin ** is half dead, and he can't wait to hunt down the traitor in person.

Seeing that there was nothing to ask for in the sect, Lin Xiao went to retreat again, this time the retreat was five years, and after five years, Lin Xiao's cultivation was upgraded to the second layer of spiritual light.

Lin Xiao has been breaking through for almost thirty years, if he hadn't been implicated in the war, he would have been able to improve his cultivation a long time ago, but with Lin Xiao's age, it doesn't matter if he wastes a few years.

On the contrary, Lu Yan can't afford it, Lu Yan has escaped the self-explosion of the real-life mode several times, and his life is very big, but he has also been injured repeatedly, and now that ten years have passed since the war, Lu Yan has not recovered from his injuries.

And according to the report of the night owl Neiying, Lu Yan's injury this time was not only a foundation problem, but even his life span was greatly reduced, even if he took the treasure of life extension, it is estimated that he will not live to be eight hundred years old, and his physical injury is extremely serious.

Now Lu Yan's age should be in his early 700s, after all, Lin Xiao also participated in his 500-year-old birthday ceremony back then, and the approximate time can be calculated that Lu Yan's lifespan is less than 100 years.

In terms of successors, there is also a problem with the Pure Yang Palace, in the last war the Pure Yang Palace killed six Daogang monks, three of which were Dao Gang of the Pure Yang Palace headquarters, because there was also a problem with the financial resources of the war, and for ten years, not a single Dao Gang monk was cultivated.

Now there are three people in the Pure Yang Palace who are most likely to break through the spiritual light, one of them is Lu Muying, Lu Yan's descendant, the leader in charge of the intelligence department of the Pure Yang Palace, and the other two are Daogang monks from the six major families, including Lin Xiao's old acquaintance Li Changqing.

If Lu Muying doesn't speed up the breakthrough of the aura, there will be a catastrophe in the Pure Yang Palace, assuming that Li Changqing breaks through and Lu Yan sits down, it may not be clear whether the Pure Yang Palace will be surnamed Li or Lu in the future.

Under the internal and external troubles, the Pure Yang Palace is particularly desolate, and now it is all supported by Lu Yan alone, he does not dare to die now, once he dies, the Pure Yang Palace will be completely finished.

But no matter how bitter he is, Lin Xiao will not let him go easily, after the activities of the night owl over the years, the remaining five neutral states and counties of the Lu country have begun to fall to Tianyun Prefecture, and the forces of the pro-Chunyang Palace have been suppressed by a series of suppressions, and the night owl has even planned a number of assassinations to solve the diehards of the other party, and it will not be long before the people in charge of these sects will become pro-Tianyun Prefecture.

Now Lin Xiao didn't let them change their ways, because they didn't want to stimulate the Cangguo and the Eclipse Kingdom, Tianyun Prefecture had not recovered from the war, if it was another thirty years, then they could do it directly.

Now someone has suggested to Lin Xiao whether Tianyun Prefecture wants to establish a country, after all, the volume of Tianyun Prefecture is too big now, and the territory is much larger than that of Chunyang Palace, and it is a little unreasonable to call a state, and the name is not loud enough.

Many activities in Nanzhou are carried out in the country, if you don't establish a country, you still have to follow the name of Chunyang Palace when you go out, which also hurts morale.

Lin Xiao thought about it seriously and felt that this made sense, but it was too early to establish the country, and it would be enough to wait for the other five states and counties to show their banners, that is, in a few decades.

However, the country name can be considered, speaking of this country name, Lin Xiao is also very helpless, because the country names of the countries in Nanzhou are too arbitrary, such as Lu Guo, that is, the head of the overlord sect Chunyang Palace is surnamed Lu, so it is called Lu Guo, and Yelu Guo, it is the same, and Wei Guo is even more obvious.

In the future, you can't call the country name Lin Guo, it's too domineering, why don't you call the little sister next door, so this country name makes Lin Xiao hurt her brain.
