The immortal mountain is steep and straight, like an insurmountable pillar to the sky, connecting the ethereal vastness of Yunzhou.

On the winding mountain road, a group of people is slowly walking.

The mountain pass is like a fierce beast, choking the throat of the mountain road.

"The envoy of Chaoyun Sect has arrived. A man in a pale blue cloud robe shouted in the group.

The gate of the road leading to Xianshan in Pofeng Village was open, and everyone lined up to greet them.

Chen Jiumu, Geng Quzhi, and Li Xianghuan lined up, and the members of Pofeng Village were straight and energetic on both sides.

"I've seen Elder Jane. Chen Jiumu bowed and said.

An old man at the head was full of red light, and there was a faint cloud of mist in the hall, and the instrument was extraordinary.

It was Jian Fenghan, who was in charge of collecting tribute from Chaoyun Sect.

"How well this year's tribute is prepared. Jian Fenghan was not polite, and went directly to the topic.

"Everything has been cleaned up according to the rules of previous years, and I ask Elder Jian to accept it. Chen Jiumu smiled all over his face, and was very respectful to the old man.

"This year is different, and we need to increase by 30% on the basis of the previous one. Jian Fenghan said lightly.

Thirty percent is not a small number for Splash Wind Village, after all, the difficulty of mining domain stones is there, and it requires a large number of people to invest more essence blood.

"Elder Jian has come from afar, please enter my pavilion to rest first. ”

Chen Jiumu looked humble and invited the Chaoyun Sect group to his residence.

In the attic, a banquet is set up.

Jian Fenghan sat at the top, and Chen Jiumu and the other three village owners sat next to him and toasted each other.

"Splash Wind Village guards the entrance of the fairy mountain, but there have been any suspicious people mixed in. Jian Fenghan asked casually.

"No, no one has entered this place except for the surrounding villages. Chen Jiumu laughed repeatedly.

Jian Fenghan was very satisfied with Chen Jiumu's attitude, and his tone became a little softened.

"I know that increasing the amount of tribute will also be a lot of pressure on you. However, this is a decision within the sect, and I can't go against it. Jian Fenghan picked up the wine glass and took a sip gently.

Chen Jiumu said with a smile: "Elder Domeng Jian has been taking care of him for a long time, so he should carefully follow the instructions of the sect. ”

When he was pouring the wine, Chen Jiumu secretly stuffed Jian Fenghan with a small storage ring, which contained a lot of domain stones.

Jian Fenghan accepted it quietly, probed it, and showed a satisfied expression on his face.

"This year's quota is decided by the old man, as long as those who meet the requirements can be included in the sect. ”

Eat people with a short mouth, and take people softly.

After accepting Chen Jiumu's benefits, Jian Fenghan of course had to make it convenient.

"Thank you Elder Jian for your support, there are indeed a few outstanding teenagers on my side who can be used as candidates. "Chen Jiumu was under Ruan Ruan's control, and everything was done according to his orders.

"Send them up. Jian Fenghan nodded and said.

For several years in a row, there have been no decent talent recommendations, and Jian Fenghan is waiting to see what happens.

Ruan Ruan and his entourage of six people appeared in the attic, and through this half month of sleeplessness, the realm has improved.

Yuqing, Zhu Zixin, Wu Changli, and Du Xiaobai have all recovered to the early stage of the Yuan Infant.

Shui Yunxi has reached the middle stage of the Yuan Infant, and she is about to enter the late stage, but the breakthrough here is a little difficult.

Ruan Ruan also recovered from the early stage of the Yuan Infant to the late Yuan Infant stage, and there seems to be a layer of obstacles from the Great Perfection of the Yuan Infant, I don't know if it is because of the unique environmental restrictions here.

In this way, Ruan Ruan also deliberately hid his cultivation, only showing the appearance of the early stage of Yuan Ying.

His Yuanshen world is different, and ordinary people can't see any flaws at all.

Except for Ruan Ruan, several people have returned to their true cultivation, and the purity of the breath in their bodies is even purer than before.

"Where did these people come from, and how they hadn't heard of it before? ”

Jian Fenghan saw that the age of the six people was not very old, but their cultivation was quite extraordinary, and he looked at Chen Jiumu with some confusion.

"Haha, Elder Jian doesn't know, these are all carefully selected by us and have been in retreat. It wasn't until the breakthrough that they were officially released. ”

These words were also the words agreed upon by Ruan Ruan and Chen Jiumu in advance, just to cover up the identities of several people.

"I didn't see it, the owner of Chen Zhai still hid a hand. Jian Fenghan didn't care, which showed that Chen Jiumu was loyal to the sect and had been working hard to make contributions.

"Elder Jian is satisfied, these are all things. Chen Jiumu stroked his palms and smiled.

"By the way, Elder Jian, the number of tributes has been increased this year, but there is something wrong in the sect. Chen Jiumu felt the thought passed by Ruan Ruan and asked.

Jian Fenghan raised his eyebrows, and the light in his eyes flashed.

"Don't ask what you shouldn't, it's not good for you. ”

Seeing that Jian Fenghan had reservations, Chen Jiumu hurriedly picked up his wine glass and raised it high.

"Elder Jane taught me exactly what I was taught, and I punished myself with a cup. ”

Chen Jiumu leaned his neck and drank it all, sitting on the seat with a solemn expression.

"Elder Jane, there is some great news that has also opened our eyes. Li Xianghuan twisted her waist and came over to make a round.

Before she arrived, a fragrant wind came to her nose.

Li Xianghuan's cultivation in the Splashing Wind Village is only decent, but this charming person's ability is first-class.

"You girl, you're still so naughty. Although Elder Jian was not moved by the beauty, he would not take the initiative to refuse.

Li Xianghuan smiled coquettishly, and half of her body was almost on Jian Fenghan's arm. There was a slight friction, the taste of ecstasy, even Jian Fenghan was a little unbearable.

In front of the public, Jian Fenghan still had to maintain the image of a master, he was sitting in a precarious position, but his tone was relaxed.

"The sea of clouds at the top of the Immortal Mountain fluctuates, and it seems that it is time for the Yunzhou Passage to open again. The Sect Master hereby orders to increase the number of domain stones to be paid, and strive to make a breakthrough before the Cloud Gate opens. Jian Fenghan said solemnly.

There was a passage between Yunzhou and Xianshan, which was still opened from time to time, which aroused Ruan Ruan's interest.

"What kind of attraction does Yunzhou have, it deserves so much attention from the sect master. ”

Li Xianghuan smiled charmingly, with all kinds of charms, and suddenly the house was full of spring.

"Yunzhou is above the Immortal Mountain, and it is said that there is an opportunity to break through the realm of the Yuan Infant. There are many strange people inside, and we can not match them. Elder Jian was so fascinated that he had completely forgotten his deliberate attitude of keeping a secret.

"I don't know when we will have the opportunity to go to Yunzhou to have a look, we have been here for a long time, and we are full of the smell of domain stones. Li Xianghuan said quietly.

Li Xianghuan's idea resonated with everyone, who doesn't want to go to the wider world to explore.

"When you are promoted to the Great Perfection of Yuanying, maybe it is still possible, even the sect master has not been able to break through, let's not be too whimsical. ”

Jian Fenghan sighed, and the atmosphere in the banquet was a little dull.

Geng Quzhi stood up, raised his glass to Jian Fenghan and said, "Elder Jian has worked hard all the way, I hereby talk about my heart, and I will give Elder Jian a cup." ”

Jian Fenghan nodded and smiled, took a sip, and his gaze swept over Ruan Ruan and the others.

When he saw Shui Yunxi, Jian Fenghan suddenly frowned, as if he remembered something.

"Where you come from, where your home is. ”

The change in Jian Fenghan's attitude shocked Ruan Ruan's heart.

This elder of Chaoyun Sect must have seen some familiar shadows from Shui Yunxi's appearance.

Shui Yunxi and Shui Yi are actually mother and daughter, and their eyebrows are naturally somewhat similar, if Jian Fenghan has seen Shui Yi, he will have doubts about Shui Yunxi.

"The little girl is from Xianze Village at the foot of the mountain, born and raised. Since entering the Splash Wind Village, he has been concentrating on cultivation, why did Elder Jian ask this. Shui Yunxi said unhurriedly.

Li Xianghuan was still leaning on Jian Fenghan's arm, and said coquettishly: "Elder Jian, do you see that young and beautiful women have to be interrogated, why don't you dare to look at the slave family." The little girl has no personnel, how can she be so enthusiastic as me. ”

Li Xianghuan was attached to Jian Fenghan's ear, softly speaking softly, looking like a little bird.

Jian Fenghan's face was a little red and his heart was beating, so he had to raise his wine glass, touch Li Xianghuan, and no longer mention the topic of Fang Cai.

Li Xianghuan accompanied Jian Fenghan to drink a few glasses, then turned around and returned to his seat.

Her eyes wandered, looking at Ruan Ruan, with a look of invitation.

Ruan Ruan secretly gave her a thumbs up and praised her quick wit.

Jian Fenghan's subtle expression allowed Ruan Ruan to catch a clue.

The water must have entered Chaoyun Sect's line of sight, otherwise Jian Fenghan would not have asked for no reason.

It seems that the water is still not in the Chaoyun Sect, and it may have arrived in Yunzhou. Be sure to take advantage of the opening of the Cloud Gate this time to investigate.

At the end of the banquet, Jian Fenghan collected the tribute and began to bid farewell to Chen Jiumu with a group of disciples.

On the road that was sent to Xianshan, Chen Jiumu and the others turned around and left.

Ruan Ruan and the others followed behind Jian Fenghan and began their journey to Chaoyun Sect along the Immortal Mountain.

The mountain is steep, and from a distance, the village turned into a black dot and gradually disappeared under the mountain road.
