Tao Yougong said calmly: "I know, but after half a year of waiting, you don't care about waiting for two more days, right? One more person will give you more strength, and if you add a few more people, you will be more sure of saving your father, right? Not to mention the Immortal Sect Messenger We have come a long way, we are tired all the way, and we need to rest for a few days.”
Tao Yougong's words were reasonable and well-founded, but it was hard for Tao Zhengyou to refute them. It had been almost half a year since his father was trapped until now. If something happened, it would have happened a long time ago, and it wouldn't be just a day or two away. Moreover, the underground palace is very dangerous. Even if people from Qingfeng Palace are found, they are not completely sure. The success rate will be higher with more helpers.
Watching the verbal exchange between the two men, Chen Biwang and others were thoughtful. It seems that things are not that simple. Tao Zhengyou wanted to save his father, but Tao Yougong deliberately delayed. Is there any conspiracy in this? This is getting more and more interesting.
However, these are all internal affairs of the Tao family. As outsiders, it is not easy for them to interfere. Since there are other helpers, it doesn't matter if they wait a few more days. The sect has given them a long time, so there is no rush.
The guests followed the hosts as they pleased, and then Chen Biwang and others settled in the backyard of Tao's house. The three of them rested while waiting for the arrival of other helpers that Tao Yougong had found.
This small mountain valley of the Tao family is a rare spiritual place nearby. No wonder the Tao family built the manor here. Of course, this is compared with a desolate place like Yongzhou. If compared with the location of the Immortal Sect like Qingfeng Palace, it is simply the difference between fluorescence and bright moon. Even compared with Yuling City and Tujiao City, it is worse. Far.
Practicing in a place like this is not very effective, especially for Qi refining monks like them, so Qingyang is too lazy to waste time. He just meditates and relaxes to get rid of the accumulated pain from his body caused by traveling non-stop for more than two months. fatigue.
Two days passed quickly. Early in the morning, Tao Zhengyou came to invite him personally. He said that all the other people Tao Yougong was looking for had arrived and asked them to meet with everyone and discuss the departure time. So the three of them followed Tao Zhengyou and went to the Tao family's reception hall.
Before reaching the door of the reception hall, I heard a rude voice inside: "What kind of messengers from the Immortal Sect? They are just a group of boys who have had bad luck. They have lived under the wings of the Immortal Sect for a long time and have never experienced anything like this." How much ability can one have when fighting without seeing blood?"
Another high-pitched voice advised: "Fellow Daoist Guo, don't say that. The disciples of the Immortal Sect come from a famous sect, have abundant resources, and their overall strength is very strong. Not to mention anything else, just the top-quality magic weapon they have. , how can we, the casual cultivators, be comparable?"
The tone of the high-pitched voice was to dissuade, but the words he spoke made the rough voice even more angry. He said in a loud voice: "It's just relying on the power of the magic weapon. If you put aside these things, those immortals of the same level Disciple, Guo can fight two of them."
At this time, a woman's voice came, saying: "Fellow Daoist Guo, be careful that trouble comes from your mouth. We cannot offend the disciples of the Immortal Sect. It is better not to say some nonsense."
After listening to the woman's words, the man surnamed Guo seemed to restrain himself a little, but he was a little unconvinced in his heart. He whispered: "It's not me, Guo, who is talking nonsense. In fact, these immortal disciples are too arrogant. We have been waiting for a long time. They But he didn’t come for a long time, obviously he doesn’t take us casual cultivators seriously.”
Tao Yougong was also in the reception hall. At this time, he quickly reassured: "Fellow Taoist Guo is overly worried. It's not that the disciples of the Immortal Sect are too arrogant. It's because the courtyard of my Tao family is too big. Several Taoist friends from Qingfeng Hall live too much." It’s a little far away. My friend’s nephew has already gone to invite him, so please wait patiently.”
Tao Yougong's explanation seemed to have some effect. There was no sound in the reception hall. However, everyone heard what he just said. Chen Biwang suddenly became cold and serious. Even Lu Both Dingshan and Tao Zhengyou were unhappy.
The four of them didn't speak, and walked directly into the reception hall. With a glance, they saw four people sitting in the large reception hall. The person sitting at the main seat was naturally Tao Yougong, and at the guest seat opposite, at the front was a man with a gloomy face, a somewhat feminine aura, and a fourth-level Qi refining level. Next to him was a strong man with a build like a bear. , the cultivation level of the third level of Qi refining, the last one is a woman, her cultivation level is similar to that of the strong man, and she is also the third level of Qi refining.
Without any introduction from the Tao family, everyone could guess that the man with the rough and arrogant voice just now must be the strong man in the middle. Chen Biwang walked straight up to him, stretched out his hand and said coldly: "I am Chen Biwang, a disciple from the outer courtyard of Qingfeng Hall, what do you call me?"
Anyone can see that Chen Biwang seems to have evil intentions, but the strong man surnamed Guo does not seem to be afraid. He directly stood up and looked down at Chen Biwang, stretched out his hand to shake it with Chen Biwang, and said: "Yongzhou casual cultivator Guo Kaifeng , Fellow Taoist Chen, do you have any advice?"
Chen Biwang did not speak, but calmly held the hand of the strong man surnamed Guo. Suddenly, his momentum was released, and at the same time, he circulated the true energy in his body and rushed towards the monk surnamed Guo. They are both Qi Refining cultivators, and the difference in aura between them is not very big. If they are prepared in advance, the people present can still cope with it. The bad thing is that Chen Biwang deliberately concealed his behavior when he entered the door, and then another one came A sudden attack from inside and outside at the same time.
The monk surnamed Guo was the first to bear the brunt. He groaned and took four or five steps back. Even the chair he was sitting on was knocked over. He obviously suffered a big loss. After finally regaining his balance, the strong man surnamed Guo asked in surprise: "You... are you at the fifth level of Qi refining?"
Chen Biwang just wanted to give the other party a blow, and now that he had achieved his goal, he threw his hands behind his back, assumed a superior posture, and said coldly: "I just heard that some people are dismissive of us Immortal Sect disciples. I wanted to test what he is capable of and dare to say such big words, but I didn’t expect that he would be so vulnerable.”
"How can you be considered a hero when the fifth level of Qi Refining bullies the third level of Qi Refining?" The monk surnamed Guo said angrily. Although he suffered a loss at the hands of Chen Biwang, he seemed to be very unconvinced.
The other two people were in the same spirit as the monk surnamed Guo. Seeing that their own people suffered a loss, they also stood up and stood together with the monk surnamed Guo. The gloomy man's face became more and more gloomy, and he said angrily: "You will show off your power to us as soon as you arrive. What does this fellow Taoist mean?"
Chen Biwang held his head high, as if he was too lazy to say so much, and looked like a lonely master. Lu Dingshan said from behind him: "It's easy to teach you a lesson if you talk about people behind their backs. If you meet someone else with a tough character, you might not even be alive at this time."
