Deep in Luotian, the sound of rain at night is annoying.
A drizzle of rain seemed to wash away the hustle and bustle of the day.
After being turned over by the red waves, we went together to Wushan after the clouds and rain.
Luo Chen lay on the bed, looking at the carved beams and painted buildings above his head, as if he had seen through the roof and gazed at the dark night sky outside.
The corners of his eyes were downward, and the woman seemed to have lost all her strength, lying helplessly on his chest. Only her long black hair and snow-white shoulders were so dazzling.
Some things happen suddenly.
But it was a matter of course, a half push and a half success.
The reason cannot be explained in detail.
"You seem to be unhappy today?"
Listening to the thunderous heartbeat in her ears, Sima Huiniang asked lazily.
"Um."
A soft "hmm" indicates that after the extreme joy, there is still depression condensed.
"Can you tell me?"
Faced with Sima Huiniang's inquiry.
If it were in the past, Luo Chen would definitely not have answered.
He has always been used to planning this kind of thing in his own mind and not talking to outsiders.
But at this moment, the other party is no longer an outsider.
He did not hide anything and told the whole story of Tantaihun's declaration of sovereignty during the day.
In the quiet room, the only thing that could be heard was the man's heavy voice.
Among them, it also involves the Jade Dew Pill business between Luo Chen and Ice Castle, as well as the current power structure within Ice Castle.
After a long time.
Sima Huiniang just lifted her arms from Luo Chen's broad chest.
"Things here are both good and bad."
"In my opinion, the benefits to you, President, always outweigh the disadvantages."
Looking at the rosy little face, Luo Chen adjusted his lying position and put one hand behind his head.
"Elaborate!"
Luo Chen is not a willful person.
I can listen to other people's suggestions.
Sima Huiniang didn't show any timidity and told her the story of her business discussion in the evening.
Which company has reached an intention with, and with which company has the cooperative relationship been confirmed.
How much has been paid and how much advantage has been taken.
Best, she concluded: "Without Tantai Xun's personal presence, without that secret pill-forming skill, even with my power of words, I would never be able to take advantage, and those people would never be able to compromise."
Luo Chen frowned.
"This is just short-term convenience."
"Even if Tantaixi doesn't come, and she doesn't show her importance to me with her secret pill-forming skills, these business deals can still be negotiated."
It's not that Luo Chen is arrogant.
These were originally planned by him.
He had already thought of this when he was preparing to hold a celebration for Sima Huiniang.
Luo Tianhui must use this opportunity to quickly digest the sudden influx of resources.
If we proceed step by step, it will take decades to achieve results.
Decades are too long!
Especially for today's Jade Cauldron Territory, no one knows when the two Nascent Soul Sects will end up personally, pushing the conflicts that are as warm as water into a boiling war.
That's why he did this.
Among them, he is confident to complete this step with or without Tantai Xun's intervention.
Even if you make less money.
"A sharp eye?" Sima Huiniang smoothed her messy black hair and said with a slight smile, "I don't see you that way."
As Luo Chen watched, she said calmly:
"Tianlan Immortal City was jointly built by seven sects, and the interests involved are huge and complex, far beyond what most people can imagine."
"If we want to survive in Tianlan, we must not be helpless."
"In fact, I recently read through the information from various companies and discovered the entanglements in the relationship."
"The greater the power, the more shadow of the big sect is behind it."
"Otherwise, the more you make, the more jealous people will be, and sooner or later you will end up dead and tragic."
The more you earn, the more envious people will be?
Death?
Each word rushed into Luo Chen's mind calmly but extremely powerfully.
He woke with a start.
Some time ago, I attacked everywhere and was invincible. It seemed that I was a little complacent?
How strong can a mere scattered cultivator force be, no matter how strong it is?
The Danxia Min family a hundred years ago?
Lianyun Business Alliance ten years ago?
It's strong enough!
One's formation is unparalleled and can withstand a year's siege by enemies several times larger than one's own.
One has more than a dozen foundation builders, three late-stage foundation builders, and even a golden elixir-stage worshiper secretly.
The final outcome is not all in sight.
Sima Huiniang was still talking.
"Many forces in Tianlan are more or less related to the big sects."
"But those relationships are actually useless at critical moments. They are just a cover for doing things cheaply."
"Take the Li family of Qinhuajiang, who are right in front of us, as an example. They are not related to Qingdan Valley, but when life and death were at stake, did Qingdan Valley help?"
"No, no!"
"There's not even a word to be said."
"And the Tianlan forces that are able to stand firm are all closely related to the Jindan Sect."
"Taoshan relies on the Taohua Ancestor of Baihua Palace, Luosha Fang is protected by Ailao Mountain, and the Du family of Taibaifang directly supplies the most valuable Taibai wine in the family to the Jade Tripod Sword Sect. And Tianyifang City... "
"With all these factors, even the seemingly helpless Iron Sword Hall is actually just like the Zheng family of Gunlongji, a die-hard vassal of the Yan Alliance!"
Luo Chen's face was tense.
He has suddenly woken up!
When Luo Tianhui encountered a crisis before, Ice Castle also treated the Li family with the same indifference as Qingdan Valley did.
At that time, he only thought that Ice Castle only valued him and looked down upon Luo Tianhui.
He thought it would be the same in the future.
However, he ignored that after embezzling the resources of Danyuan Sect and Shengong Sect, Luo Tianhui's potential was no longer just a small foundation-building force.
In the future, it will definitely be possible to catch up with and surpass the great forces in the later stages of foundation building such as Tie Jian Tang and Tian Yi Fang.
in this case.
Ice Castle is not a fool!
Even if it were Luo Chen himself, he would change his mind in a different place.
Turn a nominal vassal into a real vassal.
Tantai Xun's few words yesterday suddenly became clear.
"It's just a secret pill-forming technique, and it's nothing to me, Ice Castle. As long as Luo Tianhui and my Jueqing lineage will always be comrades and work together, it's enough."
The secret technique of forming pills was given to him by Luo Chen.
But what Tantai Xun said was that Luo Tianhui and Jueqing were of the same lineage!
The purpose is self-evident!
It’s not just Tantai Xun’s words.
Tao Yisheng's words rumbled in Luo Chen's mind like a bell.
"Among the seven sects of Jade Cauldron, Ice Castle has the fewest vassals. I didn't expect Luo Tianhui to be so valued by Ice Castle!"
Speech emphasis.
It’s still Luo Tianhui!
Luo Chen finally understood.
Now Ice Castle not only values Luo Chen himself, but also begins to value the Luo Tianhui he established with his own hands!
"But I was in the middle of the game and ignored the changes before and after."
Luo Chen murmured.
Sima Huiniang didn't hear it clearly, and she poked Luo Chen's strong chest with her fingers.
"Iceburg's attention has benefited us a lot in the short term."
"In the long run, it will be of great benefit."
"At least within the scope of Tianlan, no one dares to take action against Luo Tianhui. Even if one day, Tianlan's rotating sect is replaced by someone else, the situation where I, Luo Tianhui, was caught in the fire will not happen again."
"Of course, President, you have great ambitions, and you may feel a little aggrieved by this situation of being inferior to others."
"But a human being can bend and stretch without losing his true qualities as a man!"
“The benefits you get are the down-to-earth benefits.”
Let’s analyze these words.
Get to the bottom of it carefully and get to the essence of the problem.
The sorrow between Luo Chen's brows disappeared, and the corners of his mouth raised unconsciously.
He, Luo Chen, can certainly bend and stretch.
No matter how hard you bend, how hard it will naturally be when you stretch out!
"Hui Niang, listening to your words is like studying for ten years!"
Sima Huiniang pursed her lips and smiled, "You are Lord Huo Ling, then what kind of Lord am I?"
"Of course that's my Zhuo Wenjun!"
Sima Huiniang was stunned, her face as white and tender as a freshly peeled egg was full of doubts, wondering what Zhuo Wenjun meant.
Luo Chen didn't wait for any explanation and stepped forward.
Tonight, he is not someone who "succumbs to others"!
…
On the occasion of Yinmao.
Luo Chen played with a silk magic weapon, which was a woman's bellyband.
The lotus is embroidered with a hidden carp, and under the green lotus leaves, there is a white carp looming.
"I didn't expect that you are still using this strange magic weapon!"
This strange magic weapon came from the Zhenlong black market in Dahefang.
It is an extremely special offensive high-grade magic weapon that is worn by monks close to their bodies and nourished by spiritual energy at all times.
At the critical moment, it can explode with a strike of the best magic weapon.
Feeling the surging spiritual power fluctuations under the refreshing fragrance, it can be seen that Sima Huiniang has refined it to the extreme and can unleash a powerful blow at any time.
"Um"
Sima Huiniang rested her head on his other arm and hummed softly.
As if remembering something, she opened her eyes and looked at Luo Chen.
"After that black market auction, it was you, the president, who saved us!"
Although it is a question, the tone is affirmative.
Luo Chen smiled softly and kissed her smooth forehead.
"Didn't you guess it already?"
Sima Huiniang squeezed into his arms and said softly: "Although I know, having you personally admit it makes me feel more at ease after all."
indeed!
Since recruiting Sima Sanxiu, Luo Chen has not concealed his methods.
Whether it was the waste chalcedony beads that broke the formation or the robbed green dragon-gathering musk flag, they had already revealed his identity as his savior.
"So, you seduced me last night to repay the favor of saving your life?"
Sima Huiniang raised her head and blinked.
"You should give yourself to me for saving your life!"
Luo Chen laughed and said, "Fortunately, I'm not bad looking, otherwise I can't repay the favor of saving my life. The little girl can only make a grass ring in her next life to repay the great kindness."
Sima Huiniang was stunned for a moment, and then she couldn't help but laugh.
How could she be such a superficial person?
While her smile was spreading, she twisted her body and felt that a vital part had been grasped.
"President."
"At the auction, I thought you were just ordinary, but I didn't expect you to be so powerful and ignorant of your true nature."
"At that time, when traveling around, I had to cover up a little bit! It's almost dawn, shouldn't we..."
…
After the night rain, the sky is clear.
A streak of escaping light, wielding a sword, flew away from Danxia Peak.
Anyone with a little bit of knowledge can tell from the impressive spiritual power fluctuations that he is a true cultivator of foundation building.
However, such a scene is no longer strange in Danxia Peak today.
Yesterday’s foundation building celebration.
Although it cannot be said that tens of thousands of immortals came to the court, there were countless escaping lights and foundation-building practitioners who came in droves.
Today's Luo Tianhui is no longer a loose cultivator force with two or three big cats and kittens.
In the eyes of many casual cultivators.
Luo Tianhui is already a second-rate force under the Golden Pill Sect.
What is missing is a late-stage foundation-building monk to take charge.
If there is a late-stage foundation-building monk in charge, he can become a second-rate leader.
If you are lucky enough to invite a Jindan Qi to worship him, he will be one of the most powerful forces among the great sects.
Of course, these must be based on the premise that Luo Tianhui can redeem the potential in the future.
For now, it is indeed a second-rate force that has separated itself from the third-rate.
Inside Danxia Peak.
Many monks also discovered the escaping light and left.
People with knowledge will naturally know that it is their respected president.
Gu Caiyi got up early in the morning and received a notice to rush to Huixin Hall for a meeting.
She knew that at yesterday's celebration, the president and the president had negotiated a lot of business.
And to make those businesses run smoothly, she, the master of the Golden Palace, must be indispensable.
When we arrived, no one had arrived yet.
She and Murong Qinglian got together and briefly chatted about the possible content of the meeting.
Murong Qinglian said worriedly:
"Will Zhongmiaowan be specially supplied to Momoyama in the future? Then, we will be missing a product, which is not good!"
"It doesn't matter. With Taishanfang Kangjia's golden jade liquid, there is no such shortage of product types. Besides, I heard that President Sima has also negotiated for Taoshan Xiantao, as well as future Mo Sang's Black Blood Mulberry as a supplement, and Dandian New We have no shortage of things to sell for the refined Yuan Yang Dan."
"Caiyi, you are very precious to these things!"
"It's within the scope of responsibilities!"
Gu Caiyi smiled slightly.
She is already familiar with these things and can explain them in a few words.
During the conversation, everyone's voices gradually became softer.
Because from the back of the hall, crisp footsteps could be heard.
After a while, the radiant Sima Huiniang appeared in front of everyone.
After looking at everyone, she waved.
"Everyone, please take a seat. There is a lot going on today, so sit down and chat slowly."
After saying that, she sat down directly.
The rest of the people are not pretentious, they all come out of the crisis together, and sometimes they are not so reserved.
However, as soon as Gu Caiyi sat down, she clearly heard a soft sigh from Murong Qinglian next to her.
"Huh?"
"What's wrong?"
"nothing."
It was nothing, but the weird look Murong Qinglian stared at Sima Huiniang still made Gu Caiyi puzzled.
She looked intently and gradually discovered something was wrong.
"This feeling?"
"It seems like there were some newly married brides in Tianxiang Tower."
The rosy little mouth opened. With Gu Caiyi's knowledge, he naturally knew this.
Even if you have never eaten pork, have you never seen a pig running?
However, as the dignified president of Luo Tianhui, how could Sima Huiniang do it without forming a Taoist couple...
Suddenly!
She thought of the sword light that left this morning.
She thought of the graceful figure walking into the Luotian Hall in high spirits outside the hall last night.
A hint of bitterness appeared at the corner of his lips.
"Obviously, I came first."
