If it weren't for the fact that there were five sects in the Lingtian Realm, fighting openly and covertly to contain each other in order to compete for cultivation resources, all the major sects would have been cannibalized one by one.
The Spiritual Heaven Realm has long since become the world of the Zong Mansion, or rather the world of the Immortal Mansion.
Aotian Zongfu is one of the five major sects.
In order to maintain a balance, and at the same time to avoid making enemies everywhere and giving other sects an opportunity to take advantage of them, the five major sects have a tacit understanding not to take action against the sect families, but secretly they are competing to win over them, and the Aotian sect is certainly no exception.
More than ten years ago, Mu Zhongchuan, the head of the Aotian Sect Palace, took a fancy to the Taiyi Sect and tried hard to persuade Ke Mingjian to form an alliance with it.
It is said to be an alliance, but with such a huge gap in strength between the two sides, how can they really be on equal footing? To put it bluntly, it is to make Taiyi Sect attached to Aotian Sect.
At that time, the Taiyi Sect was at its peak and was focused on annexing the Pianyun Sect. Of course, it was not willing to succumb to others.
Of course, Ke Mingjian didn't dare to offend Aotian Zongfu. He neither agreed, nor refused outright. He delayed it vaguely for more than ten years.
But now, he couldn't delay it any longer.
As Yudanfang withdrew from Fenglan City, the foundation of Taiyi Sect was broken in half, and the Pianyun Sect completely turned against itself.
The Pianyun Sect will certainly not give up after being betrayed like this.
Although the current Pianyun Sect is not something to be afraid of, relying on Gu Qingxi's alchemy skills, I believe that it will be able to rise strongly and regain its former glory in less than a hundred years at most.
Those who are waiting for Taiyi Sect can only die.
Even before the Pianyun Sect takes action, other sects and aristocratic families will besiege the Taiyi Sect in advance in order to please Gu Qingxi.
For example, the Fairy Dust Sect, the Star Gazing Sect, the Mo Family that I saw a few days ago...
Today's Taiyi Sect seems to be calm on the surface, but in fact it is in a precarious situation. There is no other way to survive except to seek refuge in Aotian Sect as soon as possible.
Thinking that the sect that the ancestors had endured the humiliation and painstaking efforts to build was reduced to someone else's vassal, Ke Mingjian's heart was cut with a knife, and he hated Gu Qingxi even more.
"Okay, okay, I will report this to your grandfather right now.
After the Luo family auction is over, I will host a banquet to entertain Sect Master Ke. "Uncle Mu didn't notice the hatred in Ke Mingjian's eyes, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed when he finally agreed.
Although he is the only grandson of the current Palace Master, he has taken the position of Young Palace Master early due to his good talent and strength and his grandfather's preference. However, because he is too young and his temperament is too flamboyant, Aotian The elders of the clan did not agree with his abilities.
Moreover, he is only Mu Zhongchuan's only beloved grandson, but he is not the only bloodline of the Mu family. In addition to the main family's third bedroom, the Mu family has branch families with many cousins.
Therefore, if he is not succeeded as the palace master, he will not be able to rest at ease.
This time he brought Ke Mingjian to Luohe City to participate in the Luo Family Auction. He wanted to show off the heritage of Aotian Sect and find a way to persuade Taiyi Sect to form an alliance, thereby proving his ability.
I thought I would have to waste some words or get some benefits in private, but I didn't expect it to be so easy. Even before the auction, Ke Mingjian had already made up his mind.
Because he had been training deep in the Longyin Mountains some time ago, he had not heard of the competition between Jade Pill House and Shendan Pavilion, so he did not know that Ke Mingjian was actually forced by the pressure brought by the Piaomiao Sect. He had to agree to form an alliance with Aotian Zongfu.
But no matter what, being able to convince Ke Mingjian is a great achievement, which means that he is one step closer to the position of palace master.
Having just been promoted to the Great Perfection of Transcending Tribulation, and having achieved such great achievements upon his return, Mu Shaobo felt that he was in a good mood and his confidence was greatly inflated.
Suddenly, a graceful and charming figure fell into his sight.
"I never expected that there would be such a beautiful woman in Luohe City," Mu Shaobo murmured.
For the vast majority of monks, seeking immortality, seeking knowledge, and understanding heavenly secrets is the right path. Beauties and beauties are just a fleeting thing and can only be appreciated for a moment.
But there are exceptions, such as Mu Shaobo in front of him.
He had no other hobbies in his life except for beauty. Despite his young age, he already had four concubines in his family. Of course, concubine is a term used in the secular world, and he himself still calls it a Taoist concubine, but there are just a few more Taoist concubines than others.
These are just the "Taoist couples" in his family. There are countless so-called Taoist couples who meet by chance and fall in love with each other outside.
Even though he had been looking at the flowers for so many years, he thought to himself that he was used to seeing the beauties of the sky and the country, but this was the first time for him to see someone as beautiful and elegant as the girl in front of him, with an ethereal fairy spirit.
Looking at that figure blankly, Mu Shaobo's state of mind suddenly fluctuated, and his eyes also revealed a strong possessive desire.
What stunning beauty? Ke Mingjian was startled when he heard Mu Shaobo's muttering.
Then following his line of sight, his eyes fell on Gu Qingxi again.
Ke Mingjian frowned slightly: He had also heard about Mu Shaobo's lustful habits. If it were an ordinary female cultivator, he wouldn't bother to pay attention to it.
But is Gu Qingxi an ordinary female cultivator? She is an alchemy wizard who used her alchemy skills to trample Sun Tingxuan's feet and rub him hard. Not to mention Mu Shaobo, even if it were his grandfather, Mu Zhongchuan, the head of the Aotian Sect Palace, I'm afraid they won't be easily provoked.
"Mr. Mu, her name is..." Subconsciously, Ke Mingjian reminded Mu Shaobo and prepared to tell him Gu Qingxi's identity.
But before he finished speaking, Mu Shaobo had already taken long strides and walked towards Gu Qingxi.
It was impossible for the entire Tianyuan Continent to find another person with such stunning beauty. Now that he had encountered her, of course he would not let her go.
Noticing the burning fire and strong possessiveness in his eyes, Ke Mingjian felt something in his heart: Gu Qingxi has become famous now, and behind him is not only the Pianyun Sect, but also the Xianchen Sect, Guanxing Sect and other sects and aristocratic families.
Let’s not talk about whether he can get rid of Gu Qingxi and vent his hatred. Even if he succeeds, it will leave endless troubles.
It would definitely not be a bad thing for Taiyi Sect that Shaobo Mu provoked Gu Qingxi. It would be even better if things got serious and Aotian Sect and Gu Qingxi formed a deadly feud.
Thinking of this, a sinister sneer appeared on Ke Mingjian's face, and he swallowed back the rest of his words.
"This fellow Taoist is very polite. I'm Mr. Mu. How dare you call me?" The next moment, Mr. Mu had already arrived in front of Gu Qingxi and asked with a smile.
It has to be said that although he looks a bit ordinary, he comes from a famous family and has been the young master for a long time, but he still has a somewhat dignified air about him.
When he smiles, he shows his white teeth, and he is conceited yet peaceful, which makes people feel like they are in spring breeze.
Just with this smile, he has deceived many ignorant girls who are just beginning to fall in love.
But unfortunately, the person standing in front of him was not an ignorant girl, but Gu Qingxi, a man of three generations.
