It has been a week since Zichenmu gambled.

Lu Qing has been living in the headquarters of the Tianxing Chamber of Commerce these days, quietly recuperating.

He was suffering from snake venom that day, and suddenly fainted with poison, but fortunately, Cheng Su'e and others applied medicine and treatment, so that he did not have any accidents, but because of the delay was a bit long, he still needed to recuperate for a few days to completely remove the toxin.

And these days, Cheng Su'e will come to visit him every day, always with the intention of being close, but she has been rejected by Lu Qing many times thousands of miles away.

Although the Tianxing Chamber of Commerce has a big family and a lot of money, their headquarters is not very inconspicuous, it looks like an ordinary manor, and more than half of the rich families in Linyuan City can afford to live in such a house, which looks inconspicuous at all.

In a secluded room in the headquarters, Lu Qing sat cross-legged on the bed, his expression relaxed, his eyes closed lightly, and he was obviously cultivating.

But even in this state, he still didn't take off the mask on his face, and in the end, he still couldn't completely trust the Skywalker Chamber of Commerce.

Without him, because his identity is too special, if he is exposed to the world, he is now outside the protection of Qingyun Palace, and he will be helpless in the face of the secret pursuit of the imperial court.

And when he closed his eyes, it was half a day, and when he opened his eyes again, it was already sunset and dusk.

Most of the snake venom has been removed, and the depleted true yuan in his dantian has long been recovered, and the original feeling of weakness has gradually faded away.

At this rate, it will take about three or four days for him to fully recover, and then it will be time for him to get out of here.

After thinking about the schedule in his heart, Lu Qing took out a jade pendant from his waist again, only to see that its rich color was positive, and there was a faint warmth in his hand, and a strong and fiery aura fluctuation revealed from it, as if he was falling into a deep sleep.

Lu Qing looked at this jade pendant, his heart was a little hot, and he couldn't help but think in his heart that when the fluctuations in this jade pendant awakened, he was afraid that it would give him a huge surprise.

After all, it's swallowed a golden liquid and a Dan-level elf...

...

"Have you found out, what is his whereabouts?"

In the headquarters of the Chamber of Commerce, in a spacious, bright and richly decorated hall, there are several figures guarding one of the shadows.

She stood on a low staircase, with her back to everyone, although she couldn't see her face clearly, her identity could be deduced from the curve behind her and the fiery color in the eyes of several people present, intentionally or unintentionally.

When one of them saw her asking, he immediately withdrew his gaze, lowered his head and said, "This... Not yet, we have scattered a large number of people in the past few days, and we have not found any useful clues. The rivers and lakes have never heard of such a number one person, he seems to have fallen from the sky, and suddenly appeared in Linyuan City. ”

"That's it. . . Maybe he really fell from the sky." The shadow spoke, and the words meant something.

"Boss, do you think this kid is a spy and got into our Chamber of Commerce to find out the news?"

“.. No, after my observation, he should be just a traveling casual cultivator, just... How did he do that?" Hearing this, the woman's eyes narrowed with her back to everyone, and there was no charm in her beautiful big eyes, only a penetrating cold light flashed away.

"In my opinion, in my opinion, that boy must have some great treasure to do such an astonishing thing. Since he is now at the headquarters, it is better to send someone to arrest him and torture him severely, I don't believe that he will not offer the treasure obediently!" Seeing this, the man said busily, with flattery and flattery in his tone.

"Oh, really, you're so loyal." The woman sneered, looked at the man with his head bowed, a disgust flashed in her eyes, and said lightly: "Let's discuss this matter later, you have to remember that you must not act rashly without my order." ”

"But steward, he's going to be gone in a few days, and even if we want it, we won't get it. Don't forget, this kid relied on it to defeat a golden liquid Great Pill level spirit beast, if this is for our use..." The man's face changed slightly, but he still didn't intend to give up, and continued to persuade.

"Presumptuous, are you disobeying my orders?" the woman turned suddenly, her long skirt was windless, and her long hair like a waterfall blew up, revealing her delicate face.

Jade pointed a little, pointing at the man, his face was as cold as frost, "I said, everything is waiting for my orders! Are you going to disobey my orders?!"

"My subordinates know that they are wrong, and I hope that the chief manager has a lot, so let's go around me for a while, I am also thinking about the Chamber of Commerce." Seeing her like this, the man quickly knelt down and begged for mercy, burying his face deeply, but a trace of hatred flashed in his eyes.

"Just spare him once, the manager."

"Now that the enemy is now, it is the time to employ people. ”

"It is a bad omen to kill a general without a fight..."

..

Seeing this, everyone in the audience pleaded for the man, and the woman finally slowly withdrew her hand, moved lightly, her long skirt dragged to the ground, slowly walked down the steps, and when she stood next to the man, she slowly exited, "That's it, this time, for the sake of so many people interceding for you, I will spare you lightly, and I will go to receive the punishment later." ”

As she spoke, she glanced around at the people in the field again, her tone was ethereal, and she said expressionlessly, "It's just that stepping on two boats is not a long-term plan after all, and it is good for you to stand far away from the Cui family." ”

When the man heard this, he was shocked, and then he kowtowed again and again to ask for guilt, but the woman didn't even look at him, Shi Shiran returned to the steps, waved his sleeves, and said, "That's it for today, you guys will disperse." ”

Hearing this, everyone bowed their heads and said yes, and finally dispersed.

The woman looked at their departing backs, her eyes were full of frost, and her face was gloomy...

"Aunt Cheng, they are all a group of wolves that can't be fed! Why don't you get rid of them?" Behind the screen in the hall, a cyan figure flashed, tall and graceful, walked up to the woman, and took her hand.

Her face was full of indignation, and her eyes were full of resentment, as if she wanted to tear out the hearts and bones of those people.

"Alas, I don't want to, but now we still need to rely on them, and it is better to separate our friends from Germany than to be strong neighbors who have not committed any crimes in autumn. Cheng Su'e said, pulled Feng Qiuying over, hugged her into her arms, and stroked her lightly, "This is even more true for us today." ”

"Aunt Cheng, I'm not a child anymore, why are you still touching my head. Feng Qiuying seemed to resist and broke free from her arms.

"Wasn't that how you were when you were a kid, I was just as old as you then, and you were a little kid, and I often took you out of town to see the fallen leaves and snowflakes..." Cheng Su'e said, her eyes were a little misty.

"Aunt Cheng, don't say it, it's okay if I'm wrong, can't I listen to you all in the future?" Feng Qiuying said, and took Cheng Su'e's slender jade hand again, "Of course, except for that incident!"

Cheng Su'e smiled when she heard this, but there was some bitterness in her eyes, and then she nodded slightly, pulled her into her arms again and said, "Okay, I promise you, always.."

When Feng Qiuying heard this, she smiled happily, hugged her tightly with both hands, and closed her eyes with satisfaction.

..

Outside the headquarters of the Chamber of Commerce, a group of people in the main hall just now gathered together in twos and threes, exchanging heads and ears.

"What does this woman mean today?"

"Who knows, it was she who asked people to investigate the details of that Lu Qing, but in the end, it seems that we want to kill ourselves for money!"

"If you want me to say, she is selling her reputation and reputation! Obviously, her eyes are red, but she can't pull her face, and she is not a person inside and outside us caught in the middle."

..

"Not necessarily. We have to be careful, if she is tempting us and pretending to shirk it, and it would not be good if we gave her a handle at this time."

"Yes, let's be careful, don't fall for her, let her have a chance to disintegrate us from within. ”

..

"yes, yes. ”

"Makes sense. ”

..

"Hmph! It's just a little girl who hasn't dried up, and when the president recovers her cultivation, she will stand aside... But I was really unwilling to be ridden on the head by a yellow-haired girl, yelling at five and six. ”

"Hehe, don't worry.. Let's wait patiently, wait until the day she stands aside, as the so-called public anger is difficult to commit, how many of these lonely ministers have a good end since ancient times?"

"Well, I don't think we can wait long, we should be able to see this scene!"

"Huh.."

...

In the next few days, Lu Qing lived a very leisurely life, and in her spare time every day, she dealt with Cheng Su'e's temptation and had a few words with Feng Qiuying, and the time passed like this.

And most of the rest of the time, in addition to pulling out snake venom, he is also adapting to his own cultivation. Because of the effect of the Spirit Pool and the Xuanjie Pulp Cleansing Pill this time, his marrow washing can be said to be the ultimate realm.

As a result, Lu Qing, who has a light body and is clear inside and outside, has no obstacles before reaching the foundation building realm.

And his next cultivation can be described as smooth, and his cultivation progress has become rapid as a result.

He could feel that he was now constantly approaching the critical point of advancing to the foundation building realm, and all he needed to do was wait for the day when the water would come to fruition.

And at his current rate, that day, he believes, should not be too far away.

Now that his injuries are almost healed, he plans to resign to Cheng Su'e in two days, he has been in Linyuan City long enough.

On this day, after Lu Qing finished his cultivation, he planned to go out for a walk, after all, he hadn't gone out for nearly ten days.

If you are bored in your room for too long, it will not be beneficial to your cultivation.

He has been cultivating for so long, and it is time to relax.

Therefore, after Lu Qing freshened up for a while, he left the headquarters of the Heavenly Chamber of Commerce and walked around Linyuan City at will.

While wandering around, he heard something that shocked him very much: among the three major forces in Linyuan City, the Desperate Pavilion and Sanssouci Hall actually jointly went to the City Lord's Mansion to ask for a "point-to-point" sword competition. In line with the principle of promoting the spirit of monks and stimulating the development of Linyuan City, through a sword competition, the purpose of eliminating the old sects and promoting and supporting the growth of the new sects was achieved. Together, we will create a fair and energetic cultivation environment in Linyuan City.

And this time the sword discussion was presided over by Lord Ye Chenye, the county guard of Fengtian County, and ruled whether the three major forces of Linyuan City were still eligible to enjoy their current status.

If there is an unqualified sect, it will face the end of recovering all privileges, and then it will be ordered to rectify, dismiss the redundant sects, and reduce it to a second-rate sect.

This incident instantly ignited the enthusiasm of the people in Linyuan City, and it was spread in the streets and alleys, and some inns and restaurants were also talking about it everywhere.

"Heh! It seems that the Desperate Pavilion still sees the clues." Sensing this situation, Lu Qing let out a sneer in his nose.

This kind of thing, except that it was deliberately done by the Desperate Pavilion, who else would do this?
