The settlement place of the Spirit Snake Sect is not far from the Zhao family.
Zhao Yongqi was also confirming the safety situation nearby when he suddenly met Mo Xindao and other people from the Spirit Snake Sect.
"Master Mo!"
Since the two met, it was not easy to pretend that they had not seen each other. Zhao Yongqi immediately handed over his hand and gave him the courtesy of a junior.
It can be clearly seen.
Mo Xindao is in a completely different state than he was six years ago.
As a late-stage Foundation Establishment monk, although he has long been dust-free, he still shows a clear sense of vicissitudes of life, and the Spirit Snake Sect monks accompanying him are even more dusty.
What Zhao Yongqi didn't expect was.
Mo Xindao glanced at him coldly and said sarcastically: "Clan leader Zhao is indeed worthy of being a young hero. He is really a good calculator!"
Finished.
He no longer paid attention to Zhao Yongqi, and led the Spirit Snake Sect monks to pass Zhao Yongqi.
Don't believe this attitude.
Zhao Yongqi couldn't help but feel chills in his back. If this wasn't the Qianzhong Alliance, if he wasn't the head of the Zhao family and carried the clan's seal, Mo Xindao might have killed him on the spot.
On the way back to the Zhao family's stronghold.
Zhao Yongqi couldn't help but think, he didn't seem to have offended the Spirit Snake Sect. Could it be that the Spirit Snake Sect occupied the last ninth grade spiritual vein in the Thousand Layers Cave?
It must be said that the Zhao family suffered a loss!
Where did Mo Xindao get his temper?
Thinking of the ninth-grade spiritual veins, Zhao Yongqi couldn't help but think that the current predicament of the Spirit Snake Sect was all because of the spiritual vein in the "Five Yuan Valley". Mo Xindao must also be worried about the current situation of the Spirit Snake Sect.
Reminiscent of Mo Xindao's words.
Zhao Yongqi couldn't help but have an incredible guess.
Shouldn't...
Mo Xindao thought that the Zhao family had long known about the situation of the Five Yuan Valley, so they deliberately withdrew from the competition for the ninth-grade spiritual veins and deliberately left the Five Yuan Valley to the Spirit Snake Sect!
As soon as this idea came up.
Zhao Yongqi was roughly sure that maybe Mo Xindao really thought this way. After all, apart from this matter, the Zhao family and the Spirit Snake Sect had no other conflicts of interest.
This is truly a disaster.
I remember that Zhao Yongqi had doubted whether the Spirit Snake Sect and the Qianzhong Alliance had colluded for a long time.
but.
Zhao Yongqi had no intention of explaining.
Because there is no need, and there are really some unfavorable thoughts for the Spirit Snake Sect in his mind right now.
Since the Spiritual Snake Sect cannot hold the ninth-grade spiritual veins and the Five-Yuan Valley.
Then is it the Zhao family’s turn to try this position? The Zhao family now has the enhanced power of the Fiery Octagon Array, and there are also foundation-building monks sitting in charge. Although it is only in the early stage of foundation-building, the overall strength is not as good as that of the Spirit Snake Sect. Too big a gap.
The important thing is that there is an octagonal array of fire.
It can stop the intrusion of most evil spirits, which is where Zhao Yongqi's confidence lies.
But it's just an immature idea now.
Unless Spirit Snake Valley was directly destroyed by the evil spirit, Zhao Yongqi could not find a reasonable reason to drive Spirit Snake Valley away.
Even though it is extremely difficult for the Spirit Snake Sect to survive in Wuyuan Valley, it is impossible for the other party to give up Wuyuan Valley. After all, the other party has survived in Wuyuan Valley for more than six years. If it really does not have a certain trump card, how can it persist? Until now.
...
The Zhao family is located in three connected caves.
When Zhao Yongqi returns.
It happened that the monks from the Thousand Layers Cave came to visit, and the great elder Zhao Deguang was welcoming them.
"Clan leader, this is Fellow Daoist Qiu Yuanqiu from the Thousand Chong Alliance."
The visitor from the Qianzhong Alliance is a middle-aged female cultivator who is foundation-building. She is dressed simply and has a slight smile between her eyebrows, which makes people feel quite friendly.
Then, the great elder introduced Zhao Yongqi to Qiuyuan: "This is the head of our Zhao family."
"I have heard about Patriarch Zhao's young hero." Qiu Yuan nodded slightly and smiled brightly.
Zhao Yongqi saw this woman for the first time.
He only regarded it as a polite word from the other party, and thanked him politely: "Senior Qiu is overly complimentary."
Qiuyuan seemed to see that Zhao Yongqi didn't believe it, and said: "Clan leader Zhao may not know something. Shuang'er's mother is also named Qiu, and she is my cousin. I just heard Shuang'er talking about you next to me yesterday."
Shuang'er.
Zhao Yongqi knew only one Shuang'er, and that was Xiong Wushuang, the daughter of the Xiong family.
Zhao Yongqi did not expect that the Xiong family could actually have a relationship with the Qianzhong Alliance. No wonder Xiong Wushuang was so lawless in the Xiong family. It turned out that not only did Xiong Zhanmo have his backing, but his mother's relatives were even more impressive.
But you don’t have to think about it.
How could Xiong Wushuang say good things about him?
"I see."
No matter what he was thinking about, Zhao Yongqi showed a look of astonishment on his face, and praised with a hint of regret: "Shuang'er also has an appearance that shys away from the moon, and a beautiful and wise heart. It's a pity that Zhao has already decided on a Taoist partner. It’s really fate.”
He also strikes first.
It is inevitable that Qiuyuan also came to Zhao's house to talk about matchmaking and took the lead in blocking the rhetoric in this regard.
"Shuang'er is still young and doesn't know much about the world; it's really a pity."
Qiuyuan didn't know the implication of Zhao Yongqi's words, but she really wasn't here to talk about matchmaking. She just sighed and got down to business.
"It's true."
"My visit today is not because of Shuang'er, but on behalf of the Qianzhong Alliance to invite the elder of the Zhao family to temporarily join the Qianzhong Alliance's law enforcement team."
She looked solemn and revealed her true reason for visiting the Zhao family.
"Temporary law enforcement team, I wonder what the explanation is?" Zhao Yongqi frowned slightly.
"Actually, it's a common practice. It's just that it's the first time for the Zhao family to participate in the Foundation Building Conference, so I don't know about it."
Qiuyuan slowly explained: "Because there are too many monks coming to participate in the Foundation Establishment Conference, the Qianzhong Alliance alone is unable to restrain itself, so all monks who are Foundation Establishment and above will be temporarily recruited to join the Qianzhong Alliance law enforcement team. , the temporary law enforcement team will not be disbanded until the Foundation Building Conference actually begins."
There was a pause.
She continued: "Clan Chief Zhao can rest assured that every foundation-building monk recruited will be generously compensated afterwards, and all dangerous matters will be handled by the Qianzhong Alliance themselves and will not be handed over to the temporary law enforcement team."
What she said did make sense.
In layman's terms, there were too many monks from outside, and the Thousand Layers Alliance didn't have that many manpower to manage them, so they recruited foundation-building monks to assist in management.
But Zhao Yongqi suddenly thought of a deeper meaning.
Recruiting all the foundation-building monks into the law enforcement team not only allows them to assist the Qianzhong Alliance in managing foreign monks, but also directly and indirectly centralizes the management of these foundation-building monks.
Even if something goes wrong.
At best, it is a dispute between monks in the Qi Refining Stage. Without the participation of the Foundation Establishment monks, there would be no high-intensity sudden fight.
"Do all foundation-building monks have to join the temporary law enforcement team?"
Zhao Yongqi asked in confusion: "I see that the leader of the Spirit Snake Sect next to me is a foundation-building monk. If that leader is also recruited, wouldn't the Spirit Snake Sect be leaderless?"
"That's right."
Qiuyuan nodded. Although her tone was plain, it was full of irresistible charm: "Whether it is a ninth-grade or eighth-grade clan, or a non-grade force or even a casual cultivator, no matter what status you are, as long as you are a foundation-building monk , we must accept the temporary call from the Qianzhong Alliance."
