Hearing about those small countries wanting to pay tribute, Ling Xiao was a little embarrassed, and said with a dry smile: "Am I so prominent? ”

After all, he basically only did three things in Yongle County.

One is to reach cooperation with the Song family; the second is to do a good job in officialdom relations to facilitate the secondment of outstanding officials; The third is to teach the skills of spiritual plants and talisman making.

Oh yes, there's one more thing, and that's the penny.

Yongle County's annual tax revenue, he and Shen Meng each take 30%, Liang Weaving takes 20%, and the remaining 20% is used for various expenditures of the state and county.

Although it is only thirty percent, the spirit stones that Ling Xiao gets every year have increased from three or four million at the beginning to more than ten million now!

He didn't want to give it to the officials, eunuchs, and palace maids under his command like Shen Meng, and all the money he earned fell into his pocket, and the wealth he had grabbed from Yongle County alone over the years amounted to 400 million spirit stones!

What is this concept?

A monk in the early stage of the Yuan Infant is about 20 million spirit stones per year, which means that the Yuan Infant monk has to work hard, without eating or drinking, and working hard for 20 years to save 400 million spirit stones!

Coupled with the output of Ling Xiaodong's Heavenly Blessed Land, as well as the profits from the sale of talismans, he, Xiao Gua, and the Dark Fox have all lived an incomparably luxurious cultivation life in the past fifty years.

Driven by huge resources, not only did Ling Xiao break through to the late stage of Jindan, but Xiaogua and Stygian Fox were also on the verge of breaking through.

And the remaining resources that Ling Xiao has on hand now are still worth more than 500 million!

This is his hole card to impact the Yuan Baby.

……

Picking fairy fruits in the east tree, brewing new wine in the west cellar, making pickles from fresh vegetables in the early Ming Dynasty, preparing all kinds of dim sum, and picking a little fresh ingredients along the way.

The long journey to Inarizuki City passed in non-stop preparations.

Xiaogua is like a hard-working little bee, planning all kinds of exquisite food little by little, just waiting to see the "dead girl" June in her mouth, she threw out her brain and knocked the latter unconscious.

Wait, wait, wait, wait.

Ten months have passed.

After flying for a long time, Ling Xiao traveled through most of the cloud wilderness, appreciated the customs and customs of various places, saw the peaks higher than the sky, the basins deeper than the sea, saw the cities where humans and demons coexisted, witnessed the unquenchable sea of fire in the blizzard, and visited the ruins of the Demon World War full of ghosts.

He finally followed Tao Mingqian to the territory of the demon clan, the Impermanent Forest.

The Impermanence Forest is located in the northwest of the Cloud Desolate Continent, just opposite the Dragon Star Dynasty, this is the most vast primeval forest that Ling Xiao has ever seen, with mountains and savage growth as if reaching the end of the world.

In comparison, the Magic Canal Mountain Range and the Longbo Mountain Range are as delicate and miniature as a baby's toy.

"Even a god-shifting monk can't see the entire forest, which is full of forbidden areas of life and death Jedi. What is in the depths of the forest has not been known for thousands of years......"

Standing at one of the entrances of the forest, Tao Ming commented on the incomparably vast forest in a concise and concise manner.

Ahead is the paradise of the demon clan, but even the demon clan is secretive about the deepest part of the forest and does not dare to step into it.

The Demon Clan's holy land, Daoyue City, was actually only established in the central area of the forest.

"Don't go deep at will, I'll send a signal and wait for the demon clan to pick it ......up."

"Don't bother, I'm here."

Before Tao Mingqian's words fell, another voice sounded at the scene, only to see the greenery at the edge of the forest gradually changing, a group of wild ancient trees came to life, and the trunk opened its eyes, a pair of dark green strange eyes, looking at Ling Xiao and Tao Mingqian.

If you look closely, you can see that they are a group of green flying squirrels, each about half a human tall, clinging to the trunk of the tree, as if it is one with the tree.

A tree glider jumped down and said sharply: "It was originally Ming Qian Zhenren of the Dragon Star Dynasty, and the tree glider clan has been waiting for Your Excellency for a long time!" Please come with me! ”

Before the words fell, two more rays of light drifted in the distant sky.

Apparently another group of guests has arrived.

The glider glanced in that direction, then turned back and urged, "Quick! ”

Unexpectedly, Tao Mingqian saw the person coming, but he stroked his beard and smiled, and said: "Don't be busy, just wait for them, they are all old friends!" ”

"Is it an old friend or an old enemy?"

The glider asked sharply.

Successive councils have had a narrow path, and they have only come to welcome guests, not wanting to get involved in disputes between monks, and it is best not to allow any participants to meet each other in advance.

Tao Mingqian didn't answer, smiled and took Ling Xiao's hand, the two of them rose into the air, greeted the comer, and arched their hands from a distance: "Forgive the poor Dao for being clumsy, but the one who came is the Song Daoyou who is known as the 'Burning the Qin and Cooking the Crane'?" ”

The two people who came were the people of the Song family of the ancient immortal clan, and one of the women was wearing a cheongsam with a peerless appearance, and it was Song Lu.

Ling Xiao should have been happy to see his old friend, but when he heard the name of "Song Zhong", he almost burst into laughter, and hurriedly endured it desperately, and then looked at the man.

Song Zhong is a middle-aged man of about fifty years old, with a skeletal shape and gloomy eyes, which is in stark contrast to the plump and graceful, youthful and beautiful Song Lu next to him.

But the aura of the Yuan Infant exuded by this person is stronger than Tao Mingqian, and he is obviously a great monk in the late Yuan Infant period!

Burning the piano and boiling the crane - the end of the song!

One of the only two great monks of the Song family, in addition to the ancestor of the Song family and the head of the family, the third leader!

"It's down there. I have heard the name of Mingqian's real person for a long time, and I can see it today, how fortunate is it? ”

Song Zhong galloped with Song Lu and stopped in front of the two in an instant.

When Song Lu saw Ling Xiao, she didn't realize that her eyes were slightly bright, but when she saw his desperate and patient expression, she knew that he didn't hold back any good fart, and was definitely making fun of Song Zhong's name, so she couldn't help but get angry again and glared at him.

"What are you laughing at? This is my second uncle, be careful that his old man beats you to death! She warned angrily.

Ling Xiao hurriedly bit the tip of his tongue to calm himself down.

Song Zhong's gaze fell on him, piercing people like a needle.

"This is Ling Daoyou, and he is really a young talent. The Song family's business in Yongle County over the years, thanks to the strong support of Daoyou. ”

Ling Xiao hurriedly saluted and said, "See Senior Song." The cooperation between Yongle County and the Song family is mutually beneficial and win-win, but I have just done my part, and my predecessors are thankful and tormenting me. ”

Song Zhong squeezed out an ugly smile.

This person smiled, and it was really like his title, burning the piano and cooking the crane, and ruining the scenery.

Ling Xiao felt that the title of ghost sorrow was quite suitable for this person.

Who knew that after Song Zhong laughed, he suddenly said amazingly: "Ling Daoyou's supernatural powers, I heard Lu'er say it, he defeated the monk hunters and defeated the Tang brothers, he can be called the best of his peers, hehe...... Senior Shen Qianhe, he really accepted a good disciple! ”

Ling Xiao and Tao Mingqian were not surprised, but Song Lu on the side was shocked, revealing a look of disbelief.

"What?! You are ......"
