Night falls.
The lanterns are on.
Jiang Yuqian hesitated several times, but finally asked: "Brother Zhong, what did they say to you?"
Zhong Yan opened his mouth and came: "You started to speak ill of Miss Zhiyu and win me over. Miss Zhiyu gave me treasures and taught me secret techniques. How could I be ungrateful and agree to her?"
After I sternly rejected her, Jiang Linglong threatened me, saying that I had embarrassed her in front of so many people, and asked me to wait and see. She also said that the rules of marriage recruitment could not be changed, and asked me to become her subordinate. Kneel down and lick her. "
"..." The girl was stunned, with her mouth wide open and her pretty face flushed. Who is she kneeling on? Can Jiang Linglong say such 'silver words'?
Zhong Yan glanced at her and explained: "Oh, it means to be obedient to her, obey her words, and serve her wholeheartedly."
Is there any difference... Jiang Yuqian blinked and asked: "Did she really threaten you?"
Zhong Yanyi said sternly: "Miss Zhiyu treats me with deep love and loyalty. It is impossible for me to betray Miss Zhiyu!"
Jiang Yuqian nodded and said seriously: "Well, Brother Zhong, don't worry, Miss will definitely protect you and won't let Jiang Linglong hurt you at all!"
"Friend Zhong Dao!"
With a shout, the two turned around, but it was Pang Baodu.
Flying forward, Taoist Duobao politely handed over his hand and said with a smile: "Congratulations to fellow Taoist for succeeding in the challenge. Fellow Taoist has shown great fighting power. He defeated the Flying Immortal Body and became a blockbuster. He has been on the star list, which makes people look up to..."
At the same time, a message was transmitted: "Brother, why don't you go to Lian Shen Mountain? There is still another game that should be over soon."
"Congratulations to Fellow Taoist Long for bringing home this beautiful woman."
Zhong Yan smiled back and said through a message: "It's too eye-catching. I'll go there another day. Brother Taoist will help me collect two more pieces of information, one for Jiang Zhiyu and one for Jiang Linglong. Outsiders can evaluate it."
Pang Baodu: "Okay, this is easy. Come here to remind you. Someone suddenly asked me to find out where you came from. It should be the first day you came to the Floating City, she saw us walking together."
Zhong Yan was startled: "Who?"
Pang Baodu: "She is a second-level Jindan woman, wearing the clothes of Julu Academy..."
Zhong Yan frowned when he heard the other party describe his appearance, but he had no impression.
Pang Baodu continued to send a message: "The feeling she gives me is not like ordinary inquiries. It's not the admiration or solicitation caused by your special physique and victory over Jiang Haochen. It feels like she is suspicious of you."
Zhong Yan's mind was spinning, and he had no clue: "Ignore her for now. If you really have ulterior motives, you should take the initiative to contact her."
Pang Baodou nodded: "Well, Julu Academy has an admissions office in the Holy City. She should be stationed there to do training tasks. I will check her detailed information for you later."
"Okay, thank you, brother Taoist."
"See you later, friend Zhong Dao!" Pang Baodu handed over his hands and left with a smile.
Jiang Yuqian asked in surprise: "Brother Zhong knows Long Duobao?"
Zhong Yan said casually: "We met once when we first arrived in the Holy City."
Jiang Yuqian said: "Brother Zhong, don't have any contact with him. This fat Taoist priest is not a good person. He cheats and deceives everywhere!"
Zhong Yan was dumbfounded: "How do you say that?"
The girl thought for a while and said: "I don't know the details. Anyway, he has a bad reputation in the Holy City. It is rumored that he often deceives outsiders and specializes in low-level monks with no background. The lady said that invitations to auctions are sold in the city at high prices. It could be him."
"Then the Jiang family won't take care of him?"
"The lady said that someone from the Jiang family was also involved, and their status was not low. The family turned a blind eye."
After a pause, Miss Xiao Qian continued: "But this Long Duobao is able to play both ways. He is very easy to get along with. He has some friendship with the monks from all the major forces. For some things that are not on the table, others will come to him."
That must be done by Pang Baodu. Zhong Yan was secretly happy and changed the subject: "Sister Xiaoqian, tell me about Jiang Linglong. Get to know her better so that you can be wary of her."
Sister Xiaoqian... Jiang Yuqian blinked and asked, "What does Brother Zhong want to hear?"
"Tell me everything you know."
"oh."
The girl thought for a while, carefully weighed her words and said carefully: "She has a water-attribute heavenly spirit root. She is currently thirty-six years old and at the sixth level of the Golden Core. She majors in spirit exploration in Baiyi. She is a fifth-level mid-level spirit agent. He has extremely high talent. He once found a spiritual vein and two mineral veins for his family. He has minored in spiritual planting and is a third-level spiritual planting master..."
"In the lineage of the late Emperor Haotian, Jiang Linglong is more prominent among the younger generation. Her family status is only that of Young Master Yu Shixun. However, because of her beauty, she is known as the second most beautiful woman in the Eastern Region. She is also ranked fourth in the Immortal Beauty List, so outside , she is as famous as Mr. Haochen, known to the world, and has many suitors..."
Zhong Yan couldn't help but smile and asked: "Where does your young lady rank?"
"Uh..." Jiang Yuqian choked and looked a little embarrassed: "Miss is not on the list, but I think she is prettier than her!"
Zhong Yan was slightly surprised. He didn't know how the talent list was arranged. Jiang Zhiyu couldn't even get into the top one thousand.
In terms of figure and appearance, he didn't think Jiang Zhiyu was any worse than Jiang Linglong. Instead, he thought the Zhiyu girl was more lovable, quirky, playful and cute.
But when you think about it, it becomes clear that there are a thousand people in the entire Xianwu Continent, and they must be competing for beauty, and a slight difference can make a difference of a thousand miles.
Jiang Yuqian continued: "Jiang Linglong is arrogant. She often looks superior to others, saves face, loves vanity, enjoys the feeling of being surrounded by stars, likes to be surrounded by young talents from all over the world, looks down on unknown people, but has a superficial appearance. She is hypocritical, narrow-minded, and very competitive. If someone overshadows her, she will definitely compete..."
Zhong Yan is funny. Sure enough, the person who knows you best is your opponent?
Under the influence of Jiang Zhiyu, Xiaoqian talked about Jiang Linglong's 'shortcomings', and then praised her own lady to the sky.
The two of them returned to the Jubao Palace. The Seventh Floor Courtyard was still deserted. Only the shopkeeper and the waiter were there. They all cast surprised glances, obviously knowing the result of the battle in the floating city.
With a simple nod of greeting, Zhong Yan went straight to the small courtyard residence next to the eighth courtyard.
"Brother Zhong, please rest assured and heal your wounds first. If you need anything, call me at any time."
"Um."
After entering the training room and closing the stone door, Zhong Yan sat cross-legged on the stone platform and took out two jade bottles.
There are two Liuqumiaoshendan pills, both with six lines, about the size of peanuts, round and smooth, with a crystal-clear purple color and a refreshing medicinal fragrance.
However, he was ignorant and had never heard of this kind of elixir before. He was not injured at the moment and would save it for later use.
The second jade bottle was opened, and a burst of spiritual pressure rushed to the face, making people feel refreshed and refreshed.
Zhong Yan probed with his spiritual consciousness and found that the inside only covered the bottom of the bottle, about as much as three drops on the pad of his little finger. It was light blue in color and looked very viscous, with no smell coming out.
"I don't know how effective it will be."
He is now close to the peak of the fourth level of the Golden Core, and he estimates that he can break through by refining the amount of spiritual energy contained in two to three million spiritual stones.
Taking a deep breath, Zhong Yan sat cross-legged and started to perform the technique. He pinched the bottle and poured it into his mouth. The astringent spiritual liquid melted in his mouth, and the majestic spiritual energy immediately penetrated into the meridians and acupoints and spread throughout the body.
Eyes closed and opened.
In just over an hour, he broke through to the fifth level of the Golden Core!
"Why is there any need to practice for riding a horse?!"
Zhong Yan couldn't help but complain, and was so shocked that his body trembled. He finally understood why the genius of the great family advanced so quickly in cultivation.
The spiritual energy contained in the spiritual fluid is extremely pure and does not require any refining before it is transformed into vitality, directly improving one's cultivation.
If it were a spiritual stone, it would take a year or two to be refined in seclusion.
And if it is replaced by elixirs or prayer beads, the refining time will be longer.
Because 'one spiritual stone' can buy 'elixirs or beads' that exceed the 'spiritual energy contained in one spiritual stone', most monks are willing to use spiritual stones to buy elixirs and beads for consumption. More practice time is exchanged for more practice resources.
Only the disciples of the sect family who have enough spirit stones can have the luxury of directly using spirit stones to practice. Not only will their practice be faster, but there will also be no problems like 'erysipelas'.
And this spiritual liquid is simply outrageous!
Zhong Yan looked inside his body and stared at the fifth 'Red Rainbow' on the golden elixir in the Qi Sea. After a while, he estimated that the three drops of refined spiritual liquid, if converted into low-grade spiritual stones, would be at least five million!
"Linglong Fairy is grand!"
"Get a few more drops from Zhiyu girl!"
Zhong Yan thought secretly.
At this moment.
The 'Zhiyu Girl' in his mouth was kneeling on the ground, pinching her ears with her two jade hands, her small mouth pursed, and peeking at the ancestors on the platform from time to time, but she was being punished.
