The other side.

Zhong Yan toasted around and returned to the main table in the innermost room.

The people sitting here are all cultivated in Qingyang City and have the highest status.

Yang Yanqing and his wife, Bai Siyuan, Pang Baodu and other late-stage monks, plus Qingyang City Lord Qin Ben and Zhong Yan a few friends.

Everyone pushed the cup and changed the lamp, chatting freely from the south to the north.

Yang Yanqing: "How long does Pang Daoyou live in the city this time?" Where are you going to make your fortune again? ”

Duobao Taoist Pang Baodu had a fat face and was very happy, drank a glass of wine and said 'hi', and said with a smile:

"Look at it again, there is some chaos in the northwest now, and I accidentally lost my life."

Because of the war, the scattered cultivators on the Wei side poured into other countries, and the cities of Qingyang, Heishui, Shunyi, and Wangqi adjacent to Yan naturally bore the brunt.

Around the New Year's Festival, there were frequent interceptions and killings outside the city, on official roads, and on small roads.

"It's still good for us Qingyang, there is nothing to fight and kill, last year, more than ten monks in Blackwater City fought in a team battle, and five people fell on the spot......"

Pang Baodu said, looking at Qin Ben: "City Lord Qin, I heard that Wangqi City also seems to be planning to build the Keqing Mansion, is the news true?" Looking at this momentum, it is estimated that Yan Guo will follow the path of the Keqing Mansion in the future. ”

Qin Ben said with a smile: "I don't know, Qingyang Keqing Mansion has been tried for a year, it is quite stable, and the capital court does not praise or depreciate, in my opinion, Yan Guo still has a long way to go to fully implement the Keqing Mansion." ”

Yang Yanqing shook his head and said: "If it is still possible to say that Heishui and Shunyi, it is difficult to look at the city, where are the two immortal cultivation families of the Liu family and the Fang family, where can the existence of the Keqing Mansion be tolerated?" ”

Zhong Yan secretly agreed, and asked with a smile: "City Lord Qin, how is the war in the Wei Kingdom?" You can't keep fighting like this, right? ”

Yan, Wu and other countries united, mobilized heavy troops to encircle and attack together, even if the Wei alliance army was strong, the stubborn resistance could not last long.

Qin Ben glanced at it, and said in a deep voice: "It may last for a long time, if it is a war between the two countries, it will naturally decide the winner as soon as possible, now that the five countries are in the war, the four invading countries are based on local materials, anyway, they are not in their own territory, they are not worried about the national economy and people's livelihood, they all want to directly consume the Wei State with the least number of troops and the minimum cost, and then the huge territory will be divided into four, and each side will ......."

Zhong Yan secretly said No wonder, last year, Yan Guo dispatched 350,000 vanguard troops, and then not only did not send any more troops, but also transferred back 100,000, it is estimated that the same is true for other countries, all of which mainly attack and harass in small battles, plundering wealth and property.

“……”

They talked for a while about the war and the things in the cultivation world.

Yang Yanqing changed the topic and said with a straight smile: "Zhong Daoyou is now married to a beautiful monk, and he has all children, and his ambition to establish a family is clearly revealed. Daoist friend Fu Dao is outstanding, Yang intends to promote Qingyangfang City, can you be interested in cooperating together? ”

There was silence for a while, and all eyes converged on Zhong Yan.

Although the development of Zhongfu was not fanfare, it was not deliberately hidden.

It's a lot of momentum.

It has large and small cooperation with the City Lord's Mansion, the Caoyun Gang, and the Ten Thousand Hall, plus the position of a mage, and has a network of many Hakqing monks.

At present, it has not yet been rolled out, and it has become famous in Qingyang.

When it spreads out, it will become the head force of Qingyang, and it is unstoppable.

Bai Siyuan's eyes flashed slightly, and he swept over the faces of the two protagonists one after another.

Zhong Yan and Yang Yanqing looked at each other for a moment, and raised their glasses with a smile on their faces, "There is no such thing!" The lord of Qin City has worked hard and made great achievements, Qingyang City is growing stronger and stronger, and it will be among the big cities. ”

Qin Ben secretly cursed 'treacherous' in his heart, and also smiled: "This is a good thing!" It is the blessing of Qingyang for all the immortal masters to settle in Qingyang, the blessing of the people, on the side of the capital, Qin Ben will try his best to go to Cambodia, but in terms of the Huoyun Sect, you still have to take care of it yourself. ”

"Of course!"

Yang Yanqing laughed, raised his glass and looked around, "Huoyun Sect has its own Yang Mansion to come forward, borrow the Zhong Mansion to celebrate the wine, everyone will drink a cup for the prosperity of Qingyang!" ”

……

The banquet lasted from noon to midnight.

The guests are gone.

Zhong Yan sent Yang Yanqing and the others out of the house, his eyes flickered, and he asked Bai Siyuan, "Brother Dao, do you know that Zhang Yufu?" ”

A figure appeared in Bai Siyuan's mind, a burly man with thick eyebrows and big eyes.

"I'm not familiar, I've only seen him once before, that Zhang Yufu Qi refining sixth-layer peak cultivation, it seems that he entered the Yang Mansion at the end of last year as a guest of the house, and the elder brother asked him what he was doing?"

Zhang Yufu ...... Zhong Yan muttered in his heart, shaking his head slightly, that person was very faced, he was sure that it was the first time he saw him, but he sensed a trace of hostility in the other party's gaze, and it disappeared in a flash.

Bai Siyuan sighed: "The strength of the Yang Mansion is very strong, I am not surprised to announce the establishment of the clan tomorrow." ”

Yang Yanqing broke through to the ninth layer of qi refining, his wife Huo Qingqing was at the peak of the sixth layer of qi refining, and a pair of children entered the cultivation and reached the third layer of qi refining.

In addition, there are nineteen family house guests, of which there are five in the sixth layer of qi refining.

There is also an alchemist, Cheng Youliang.

If the Zhou family fills a few more, it will be stronger than when the Wangqi Fang family first established the clan.

Zhong Yan thought for a moment, "It's estimated that it's not so fast, at least until there are specific eyebrows in Fang City." ”

Bai Siyuan smiled and said: "He is a little anxious, he has attracted eight guests last year alone, and he is not afraid of problems in the future." ”

Send Bai Siyuan away.

Zhong Yan went to the study and called Zhong Xiaozhong, Li Yang, and Yan Sandao in turn to make arrangements.

Late at night, when he returned to the cultivation room, Yu Qingyao, who was lying on the couch with a red face, raised her hand and hooked her fingers.

"Zhong Lang!"

[You practice once with a Taoist companion and get the Water Spirit Root Bonus +2000, the Wood Spirit Root Bonus +1000, and the Cultivation Experience +3500]

……

It's another month in the blink of an eye.

Looking at the Taoist couple beside him with a satisfied smile and sleeping sweetly, Zhong Yan unfolded the panel, unable to hide his excitement.

[Name: Zhong Yan]

[Shouyuan:44/84]

[Spiritual Root: Fire 28% (536), Wood 29% (1618), Gold 12% (0), Earth 8% (0), Water 20% (1356)]

[Consciousness: 71 (312/1000)]

[Realm: Fifth layer of gas refining (363978/130000) can be broken through]

[Exercise: "Heavenly Fire Jue" (Intermediate 3977/5000)]

[Spells: Great Void (Consummation 736/1000000), Gravitation (Beginner 10021/100000000), Fireball (Beginner 5413/1000000)......]

[Occupation: Talisman (1st Order 31695/60000)]

[Binding: Taoist Yu Qingyao (31/97), Concubine Yan Sandao (21/70)]

Thereinto.

The purity of the wood spirit root essence has increased from 19% to 29%, and the water spirit root has reached 20% from scratch.

He had experimented, and the improvement of the spiritual root qualification had made his refining pill speed faster, and his qi sense had also increased, and he had become more sensitive to the spiritual energy between heaven and earth.

And the cultivation experience has skyrocketed!

It can break through at any time and reach the sixth layer of qi refining!

It's huge.

Zhong Yan tried his best to suppress his impulse, did not rush to break through, and was ready to keep it as a hole card.

Taking a deep breath, he couldn't help but look at Yu Qingyao again.

If there are too many times of double cultivation, it will affect the other party's cultivation.

It's not a long-term solution.

You still have to be modest.

And for a long time, he hasn't gone to find other wives and concubines, I'm afraid that he has some complaints in his heart.

The next morning.

Zhong Yan summoned his entourage and went out of the city to Fuyang Town.
