"?"
Zhan Xuanyuan was stunned for a moment, and just when he was about to ask more questions, he heard Lu Lan continue:
"But I couldn't believe them, so I declined... Fortunately, Senior Yuan was reasonable and let me go."
When lies are hidden within truth, it becomes difficult to tell whether they are truth or lies.
Even Zhan Xuanyuan, who has always been suspicious by nature, nodded after thinking for a moment:
"Indeed, this is the best thing to do... After all, the Yuan family is also one of the five great families, and the person who can sit in that position is definitely not an ordinary person."
Zhan Xuanyuan was indeed a little afraid of Lu Lan establishing cooperation with the Yuan family.
Because he knew that one day in the future, if he and Lu Lan both became powerful men in Cangyuan Continent, then Lu Lan would unceremoniously become his enemy.
After all, he had threatened Lu Lan.
This is what Lu Lan can't stand the most.
The reason why he hasn't fallen out yet is because he still can't figure out Zhan Xuanyuan's true strength.
Only when Lu Lan was in a life-and-death crisis, and he risked his own life to save Lu Lan, would it be possible to put an end to the past.
However, Zhan Xuanyuan, whose personality has changed drastically now, cannot do this no matter what.
Even if he wanted to, the "senior" in his soul would never allow it.
Therefore, he did not want Lu Lan to cooperate with the Yuan family before he grew to a height unmatched by the entire Cangyuan Continent.
Hearing Zhan Xuanyuan's words, Lu Lan couldn't help but sneer secretly, and without saying anything else, he entered his room and started to refine the medicine.
He wants to cultivate to the fourth level of [Dragon Elephant Fu Shi Jing] as soon as possible.
In this way, he can enhance his physique and become stronger.
At that time, even if he faces Yuan Wang again, he can easily defeat him.
The elixir refining this time was a bit troublesome, but fortunately, Lu Lan had already memorized the elixir refining process in his mind, and all it took was time.
After spending a day and a night.
Finally, a muffled sound came from Lu Lan's room.
In another room, Zhan Xuanyuan, who was feeding Cang Nian Poison Gu, was stunned for a moment, and then put away the Cang Nian Poison Gu.
"Aren't you going to see what kind of elixir he has made?"
The mysterious Gu's voice sounded in his soul sea.
"It's not necessary. Every time he refines the elixir, he won't let me watch from the side."
Zhan Xuanyuan said indifferently:
"As time went by, I didn't bother to see what pills he refined... Besides, I am not an alchemist now, but a Gu Master. Why should I pay attention to that broken pill?"
"Haha, to be able to separate your current self from your past self so cleanly and neatly, it seems that you were very concerned about Yaoshen Sect's attitude towards you back then."
After all, Xuan Gu has been in his soul sea for a while, and the two of them may now have a deeper cooperative relationship than Lu Lan, so Xuan Gu also knows part of his memories and what Zhan Xuanyuan went through back then. some things.
"Of course...it was clearly promised that there could only be one genius like me...but they have cultivated another genius who is stronger than me. Isn't this cheating?"
As soon as he recalled what he had experienced before, Zhan Xuanyuan's face turned cold:
"They promised me that Yaoshen Sect would train me wholeheartedly...but they turned around and gave up on me..."
"I can't figure out why this is!"
Xuan Gu was silent for a while, and then asked:
"Where is your master? Does he have the same attitude as the Yaoshen Sect?"
"That's not true...if I hadn't seen my master go to ask for an explanation for me, I might have felt that my master had given up on me."
Zhan Xuanyuan calmed down and said in a calm voice:
"So master is now my only being related to Yaoshen Sect... Fortunately, they didn't do anything to my master after I left."
Xuan Gu quickly asked again:
"Then do you understand why they abandoned you back then?"
"Why did you abandon me..."
Zhan Xuanyuan's eyes were cold and his tone was almost crazy:
"I just used a few dying homeless beggars to experiment on the elixir I refined. But they said that I ignored human life and was not worthy of being an alchemist at all..."
"Heh, I just want to ask, if they don't use these people for experiments, do they dare to give the elixir to those living people without any worries?!"
"Of those famous elixirs in history, and the magical elixirs that have been refined by people by word of mouth, which one has not been tested?!"
"I don't believe that those pills were not tested on people when they were refined!"
"Because of this, I committed the most unforgivable sin in the Medicine God Sect's rules, but I also made a bet with them that if I could refine the perfect elixir that I expected without any side effects at the Medicine God Conference, , then they can't deport me...or even convict me."
"At that time, I could still be said to be the 'Holy Son' of the Medicine God Sect, so they had to compromise for my sake."
"After that...that's what I just told you...they secretly cultivated Xia Ningmo at some point and defeated me openly at the Medicine God Conference!"
"Not only is the elixir she refined perfect and of a higher grade than me, but even the most perfect efficacy I expected appeared in the elixir she refined!"
"That's why I lost completely...and was expelled from the Medicine God Sect."
What happened next was that Zhan Xuanyuan tried every means to find someone to attend the Medicine God Conference to initiate revenge.
Xuan Gu had explored that memory, and naturally knew how many years Zhan Xuanyuan had spent and how many countries he had traveled to in order to find someone who met his requirements.
Only then did I finally find someone like Lu Lan who met the requirements extremely well.
"Haha, no wonder you chose to become a Gu Master... With your temperament, you are born to become a Gu Master."
Xuan Gu said with a smile.
Unlike an alchemist experimenting with new elixirs, if a Gu master wants to test whether a cultivated Gu insect is useful, his first choice must be a human being, especially a living human being.
Except for those "corpse control voodoos" that can only act on corpses, this is the case for all other voodoo species.
This is also the reason why Gu masters are completely unpopular in Cangshen Kingdom and even the entire Cangyuan Continent.
"It seems like there's nothing good about staying in that damn place for a long time...at least I can meet a good prospect like you."
Xuan Gu said with a smile.
Zhan Xuanyuan did not agree with his statement.
He didn't know if he was a natural Gu Master... but at least, in the past, he would never have been willing to be evaluated as a good candidate for a Gu Master.
This was a negative comment for him at that time.
But now he naturally doesn't care about this.
At this time, Lu Lan's room.
He held a blue-white pill with a satisfied look on his face.
This is the elixir he refined, called "Zhoutian Divine Body Pill".
After taking this elixir, the physical strength will become stronger every week.
It is very suitable for him to practice [Dragon Elephant Fu Shi Jing].
He judged for himself that after taking this Zhoutian Divine Body Pill to break through to the fourth realm, he would probably no longer need to refine pills to strengthen his body in the future.
"Come on, let's see if we can break through to the fourth realm [Crossing the Sea]."
Lu Lan swallowed the Zhou Tian Divine Body Pill without any hesitation.
Soon, a warm ocean current poured into the body, spread out in the body, and poured into every corner of the body.
Very comfortable.
Lu Lan could clearly feel that his body was gradually getting stronger.
This feeling is very real and not illusory.
He began to control the warm ocean current to strengthen his body.
Another two days and one night passed.
Wu family guest room.
The Wu family now has a constant stream of guests.
The reason is naturally attributed to Lu Lan helping the Wu family win the first place in this Yuanling Martial Arts Tournament.
At the same time, many people have noticed that the Yuan family seems to be intentionally approaching the Wu family, and the Wu family is naturally overjoyed and will certainly not refuse any contact with the Yuan family.
Although I don't know what the reason is, since the Yuan family has taken the initiative to put aside their status and approach the Wu family, it means that at least there will be no loss in establishing cooperation with the Wu family.
At this time, the living room of the Wu family.
Many people came to visit the Yuan family today.
They were even led by two important figures from the Yuan family... One was Yuan Yuan, the eldest elder of the Yuan family, and the other was Yuan Wang, the young master of the Yuan family.
Naturally, the Wu family did not dare to neglect these two people and quickly served them with good tea.
"Young Master Yuan and Elder Yuan Da came to our Wu family today. It can be said that our Wu family is in full bloom."
Wu Tianqing said with a smile.
"Master Wu, there is no need to be so polite. I brought the young master here today just to discuss specific cooperation matters with your family. At the same time, I also want to show the Wu family the 'sincerity' of our Yuan family."
As he spoke, he took out a purple card, placed it on the table, and pushed it to Wu Tianqing.
Wu Tianqing took a look and was slightly shocked.
The purple Xuanyuan Chamber of Commerce card... its status is really not low, and the number of Xuanyuan stones that can be stored in it is definitely quite a lot... I just don't know how many there can be.
Xuan Stone is different from Xuan Crystal. It is a spiritual stone that can absorb Xuan Qi for Xuan practitioners, and Xuan practitioners can use it to enhance their own Xuan strength.
It is also divided into three different levels: low, intermediate and high.
The number of high-grade black stones determines whether a family's resource base can be called "strong".
If a family has enough high-grade black stones, it can cultivate many strong men.
According to Wu Tianqing's understanding of Xuantian Chamber of Commerce's cards, generally speaking, the number of mysterious stones that can be put into purple cards must be at least two million!
I just don’t know what level of black stone is stored inside.
Wu Tianqing reached out and touched it, and suddenly took a breath of cold air after detecting the mysterious energy.
Actually... there are more than four million high-grade black stones!
This amount is comparable to half of the number of mysterious stones they collected in half a year!
"Elder Yuanda, this..."
"Please hear me out first."
Yuan Yuan said calmly:
"If you want this card, first of all you must not only agree to cooperate with us, but also agree to our request."
"Please tell me." Wu Tianqing was mentally prepared.
The request that Yuan Yuan can make is probably very difficult to fulfill.
"There are a total of 4.8 million high-grade black stones in this card, of which you need to give half of it to Mr. Lu Lan."
