Because of Shui Che's arrival, the Zhang family reacted greatly. Zhang Yuxian even came directly from the island in the middle of the lake to the Xuanyan Mine, keeping a close eye on Shui Che's position.
"In any case, Shui Che's arrival is not a good thing, and I suspect that the Shui family just wants to use this monster to destroy our Xuanyan mine."
"You can't say anything too absolute." Faced with Zhang Yuxian's words, Zhang Yunting shook his head.
"I think Shui Che is after the demonic elixir. He has been on the ninth level of foundation building for a long time."
"I understand what Third Uncle means." Zhang Yuxian nodded, "It's just that these two things may not conflict."
After finishing speaking, Zhang Yuxian looked to the other side, where a plump woman wearing a fiery red cheongsam was staring silently out of the window, "What did sister Xueji say? Has there been any movement recently in the other two foundations of the Shui family?"
After hearing this, the woman finally withdrew her gaze, "Shuichang and Shui Fengchu have been chasing traces of demons around them. So far, there is nothing unusual."
"Same goes for Shui Che. I've seen him twice. He seems to have the means to track the location of the demon."
Zhang Yuxian looked at Zhang Yunting, "Third uncle, they seem to be surrounding the demon, making it impossible for the demon to leave the Xuanyan Mine from other directions."
Zhang Yunting fell silent, then looked at Zhang Yuxian, "Are you sure you can deal with Shui Che? Even if I are included, can the two of us keep him?"
"Winning or staying depends on the means, but we can't let him move freely around us. The Shui family's hand is stretched too far."
Zhang Yunting looked at Zhang Yuxian and said, "You've been too impatient lately."
"Brother, the key to this matter is the location of the demon. We must find the location of the demon before the Shui family, and then we can take control of Shui Che."
"You guys just keep watching." Zhang Yunting, the senior one, started to chase people away, but Zhang Yuxian and the others couldn't stay any longer.
After walking down the seventh floor, several foundation builders felt a little heavy and had no intention of communicating.
In a daze, Zhang Yuxian saw a familiar figure, walked over there in a few steps, and stood in front of someone.
"Boy Qing, what do you think about this matter?"
The tall and broad figure almost blocked all the light from Zhang Qing. After seeing the person clearly, Zhang Qing breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Uncle Yuxian."
"Don't talk nonsense. Where do you think the monster will be?"
Zhang Qing's head was full of question marks, and then he reacted, "Well... uncle, how could I possibly know the location of the demon?"
"There's no way a Qi-training monk like me can catch a demon at the peak of its Foundation Establishment."
Zhang Yuxian looked at Zhang Qing for a long time, and finally waved his hand, "Okay, you can go."
Zhang Qing walked away quickly, he did not dare to touch this person's brow.
There are only a few months left before the Jinlan Sect's people arrive, and this clan uncle is probably very agitated.
What's more, he was right. He didn't know about the monster for more than an hour. How could he know where the monster was?
With his small arms and legs, he wished the demon would stay away from him.
After hurriedly trading with his family for the resources he needed for his cultivation, Zhang Qing, Zhang Mingxian and others returned to Xuanfengyuan.
Although the cultivation efficiency here is not very good, it is better than purity. Apart from being careful every month, there is almost nothing else to do.
After a few days of calm, Xuan Fengyuan encountered a surprise.
A mortal boy traveled thousands of miles to Xuanfengyuan. After seeing Zhang Qing who stayed behind, he fell to the ground and shouted Immortal Master.
Coincidentally, several people had already come up from Xuanfeng Abyss, and they were amazed to see this scene.
"These days, there are not many mortals who can go to Xuanyan Mine. What do those family monks on the edge do for food?"
Hearing Ji Yue's complaint, Lin An explained with a smile: "Recently, there are many Shui family members around us. The family has shrunk the defense line of Xuanyan Mine and abandoned its garrison in many places. This person can be considered lucky. We actually walked all the way to the middle of the mountain range.”
After all, the reason why a mortal can appear here is a combination of various factors.
But it was impossible for him to move on.
Zhang Qing looked at the young man in front of him and said, "You get up first. The title of Immortal Master is correct, but you are in the wrong place."
If the young man appeared in Chihu, he wouldn't mind giving him a chance, but in Xuanyan Mine, no one would have the leisure to give advice to a mortal.
"Please give me the magic from the immortal master!" The young man did not get up and was still lying on the ground.
Although immortals and mortals are not completely isolated in this world, legends of immortals are spread in many places. However, it is easy for immortals to find mortals, but it is always difficult for mortals to meet immortals. The Zhang family in Chihu is very big, but it is not something that mortals can know casually.
"I'll find someone to take him out of the mountain." Ji Yue said, then got up and walked forward.
Hearing this, the young man's body couldn't help but tremble, but he still didn't make any unnecessary movements.
However, when Ji Yue crossed Zhang Qing, he was stopped by the latter.
Looking at the boy lying on the ground, Zhang Qing thought of the time when he was taken away from home by his family elders. Even though he knew where he was going, he was still confused.
"How old are you?"
The young man's voice was green, "Twelve."
"Can you read?"
"Before the drought, I still have some money left at home, so I asked my husband for advice."
"Then you should know what kind of kindness it is to preach and receive a mission."
"Students know that if they want to learn immortal magic, they will never forget the grace of the immortal master in giving them the magic."
"I will not give you the Dharma, nor will I lead you to practice, and you cannot spend the night in this mountain." After Zhang Qing finished speaking, he looked at the boy lying on the ground, "Raise your head."
The young man's tear-stained face appeared in front of several people, and in the void, dots of flames condensed into a pattern, "Remember this map, if you can reach Chihu smoothly, you may be able to get what you want there. .”
"As for this place, you are looking for the wrong one. Outsiders are not allowed here."
The young man didn't quite understand Zhang Qing's words, but his eyes were fixed on the flame map in the void until the latter gradually disappeared.
"Let's go, remember to go back the way you came, otherwise you will be in trouble."
"Students, remember, if you dare to ask the immortal master's name, Qingyang will definitely repay the immortal master's kindness one day."
Zhang Qing shook his head, "You don't need to know my name, I won't ask you what it is, and you don't need to repay me with anything. Let's go."
Qingyang knelt on the ground and kowtowed a few times. He glanced at Zhang Qing and others and seemed to memorize their faces before walking towards the forest. The process was not delayed at all.
"Brother, do you like him?" Lou Shaoen couldn't help but laugh, thinking that Zhang Qing's behavior was just a matter of youthful curiosity.
After all, when they were young, they had more or less heard the legends in the storybooks about the immortal cultivators recruiting children.
Who doesn’t want to be a grandpa for a time? They’ve all done this to a greater or lesser extent before.
Zhang Qing looked at the empty mountain forest where no one was back, "What do the clan brothers think of the mountain range where the Xuanyan Mine is located?"
"The spiritual energy is rich and unmatched by other places." Zhang Mingxian, who didn't speak much, answered.
"Yes, the spiritual energy is rich. In the world of cultivation, these four words usually have another meaning, don't they?"
"A place with strong spiritual energy is a very dangerous place. Due to family reasons, there may not be particularly powerful demons in the mountains, but they are not something that mortals can deal with."
"Isn't it a kind of luck that he can come all the way here without encountering anyone at all?"
Zhang Qing looked at Zhang Mingxian. After the latter fell silent, he took out the red jade pendant on his waist.
