In every city in the four worlds of the three thousand worlds, there will be an alliance of cultivators.
Similar to the Medical Cultivation Association Alliance, it usually does not intervene in the internal affairs of major sects, but will help mediate conflicts and solve some problems among practitioners.
Such as debt and so on.
Meng Qi couldn't find Lu Qingran, so she had to take the IOU marked with her spiritual consciousness to the Alliance of Cultivators. They could recover the debt for her, but they had to take one-tenth of it as a reward.
The Alliance of Cultivators of Huajiang Mansion is in Dongcheng, and it is a short walk from Ruyifang.
Today, the person on duty at the Cultivator Alliance took the IOU and looked at it, a little surprised.
He raised his eyes and glanced at Meng Qi standing in front of him. The other party was just a foundation builder. There were three ninth-grade spirit stones and five hundred eighth-grade spirit stones on the IOU. Are there so many
The man was astonished, but still didn't ask anything, just said: "According to the rules, one tenth of the spirit stones should be drawn to the alliance."
"Yeah." Meng Qi nodded, "Can it be as soon as possible?"
The auction will be just two days later. To be honest, the price of Chiyu is more than a few hundred ninth-grade spirit stones, and what Lu Qingran owes is a drop in the bucket.
But as many as you can.
"If you want to rush, then you need to give an extra one hundred eighth-grade spirit stones."
"Yes." Meng Qi nodded, "Is it possible within a day?"
"Come again tomorrow evening, Fellow Daoist." The man completed the formalities for Meng Qi, and then marked the IOU.
"Thank you."
Meng Qi handed over the IOU to the other party and left the Alliance of Cultivators.
What else can I do
Standing in the center of Huajiang Prefecture, she can accumulate enough spiritual stones in a short period of time, what else can she do
Refining Beiming Dan again, the price will not be higher than last time, even if the quantity is doubled, it will be difficult to sell at a high price.
A few hundred more eighth-grade spirit stones will not help much.
Meng Qi looked up at the sky, and the names of the pills he could refine flashed through his mind.
She knew that if she was willing to sell the method of how to combine the magic circle and the elixir, she might be able to sell it at a high price.
But no!
Although Meng Qi also contributed some strength to this matter, from the refining of the magic circle, to the combination of the elixir and the magic circle... Without a mentor, it is impossible to do it.
He is the great expert on the magic circle, and only he has so many wonderful ideas.
Meng Qi was already very grateful for the teaching.
She also wanted to sell methods, and she felt that she was not qualified.
besides.
She counted her storage bags, she was a foundation builder, and she didn't have any valuable things.
Even if Qin Xiumo is forced to repay the debt now, it is still far from enough.
"What are you worried about?" Qin Xiumo waited outside from the beginning.
Seeing Meng Qi frowning sometimes, sometimes in a daze, he asked, "Not enough spirit stones?"
"If you buy it directly, it may be okay. It will be difficult when you go to the auction house." Meng Qi said.
"Is there a way to buy it directly?" Qin Xiumo asked, "Do you know who sent Chi Yu to the auction?"
"Of course I don't know." Meng Qi shook his head, "They will keep the Chi Yu's owner a secret."
"How much worse?"
"It's hard to say, according to Su Junmo, at least five hundred ninth-grade spirit stones must be prepared." Meng Qi said: "Not necessarily enough."
Qin Xiumo thought about it, but he was a little bit lost.
Even if he hadn't been betrayed and hadn't fallen to the current situation, hundreds of ninth-grade spirit stones were not a small amount for him.
"Does it have to be Chi Yu?" He couldn't help asking again.
"En." Meng Qi responded in a low voice.
After thinking about it, she still walked towards the Immortal Pavilion on Yunshang first.
No matter, let's refine some pills first, let's count how much they can sell.
The Fairy Pavilion on the Clouds sells most of the common medicinal materials in the Three Thousand Worlds.
Meng Qi spent two hundred eighth-grade spirit stones to buy enough medicinal materials, as well as the materials needed to draw the magic circle.
She almost filled her storage bag before returning to Ruyifang.
She went back to the small courtyard she had rented, let Xiao Qi out first, then closed the door, and took out all the spirit grass and spirit flowers.
The bitter medicinal fragrance filled the whole room in an instant, Xiao Qi jumped onto the bed, then turned to look at her.
He watched Meng Qi busily start drawing the Lihuo Formation, and then took out the small cauldron for refining medicine.
The magic circle Meng Qi drew on the ground this time is a bit complicated, with a total of six layers overlapping each other.
The magic circle is surrounded by the magic circle, and the last six magic circles together form the shape of a hexagon.
At the very center of the six-pointed area is an independent new magic circle, and the small tripod is placed at the very center.
Xiao Qi felt a little numb.
Meng Qi could even draw the star array of their White Tiger Clan, let alone other arrays.
He watched the little girl busily coming and going in front of him, and probably guessed what she was going to do.
I want Chi Yu...
To photograph Chi Yu, it was because of his own injury.
Xiao Qi's blue eyes gradually became gentle.
He looked at Meng Qi, and felt that the other party was like a hardworking little rabbit, obedient and clever.
It makes people even want to... rub her soft hair.
At the same time, in the suburbs three hundred miles away from Huajiang Mansion.
Under the green hill, Lu Qingran helped the black-robed cultivator to sit down beside a big rock.
They were leaning against a big tree, and the shade of the tree almost blocked all the sunlight, only fragments of light and shadow fell through the cracks and fell on Lu Qingran's small face, making the look of fear in her eyes even more obvious.
"You..." Her eyes flickered slightly, and she asked, "Are you okay?"
"Heh—" The cultivator in black was still wearing a bamboo hat, and the black veil completely covered his face.
His low chuckle was a little less sarcastic than when he was in the other garden of Xuanyun Villa just now, but a little more joyful.
He raised his hand, and suddenly grasped Lu Qingran's small jaw with his slender and pale fingers.
"Worried about me...huh?" He said with a touch of sarcasm, "Or do you want me to be hurt more so that you can take the opportunity to escape?"
"I'm not! I'm real! Didn't you say... that you couldn't make a move easily? Why did you..."
At the end of Lu Qingran's speech, her voice quietly dropped.
She lowered her head slowly, not wanting the other party to see the blush on her face, revealing a slender and fair neck.
"If I don't shock them, I won't be able to get out of there smoothly." The man in black snorted coldly, "Those few people, except your junior sister, are all above Jindan, and there is one who is already a Nascent Soul. Really moved Come on, now I... who?!"
The man in black suddenly turned his head, his gaze shot into the distance like a sharp sword through a layer of black veil.
Lu Qingran was startled, and then raised her head to look into the distance.
Surrounding the two of them were rolling green hills with tall trees covering the sky and the sun.
Then Lu Qingran saw four people standing silently on the trees around them.
All four of them were wearing dark blue cultivator robes with no logos on them.
They don't look very old, about thirty years old.
It's just that in the Three Thousand Worlds where there are countless beauties, her appearance can be considered ordinary at best, the kind that is thrown into the crowd and easily overlooked.
But now, the four stood proudly on the top of the tree, their slender figures slowly rising and falling as the wind passed by the tree.
It seemed that there was actually a bit more chilling coldness.
Lu Qingran was swept over by the eyes of one of them, and couldn't help shivering quietly.
She didn't realize at all when these people appeared.
Or, as soon as they left Huajiang Mansion, these people followed
The man in black didn't move, and continued to sit firmly beside the boulder.
With his back against the trunk of the big tree, he didn't seem to care about the sudden appearance of the four cultivators.
His right hand slowly descended, holding Lu Qingran's hand.
A small and icy jade pendant was stuffed into Lu Qingran's hands.
Lu Qingran was surprised and turned to look at the man in black, but he didn't even look at her.
The four people who suddenly appeared here are all Nascent Soul cultivators.
When he was intact, he would naturally not be afraid of them.
But now, he couldn't even guarantee that he would be able to escape unscathed. It was even more impossible to bring Lu Qingran with him.
For a while, there was only the sound of the wind blowing through the treetops and the rustling of the leaves in the forest.
None of the four blue-robed cultivators and the man in black spoke first.
Lu Qingran looked down at the jade pendant in his hand.
On the turquoise jade pendant, there is a piece of blood red. The carving of jade pendants is simple and clumsy, with almost no extra decoration.
But that drop of blood was red, Lu Qingran felt more and more mysterious the more he looked at it.
It seems that it is not the color of the jade pendant itself, but someone's blood dripped on it, forming this blood red.
Lu Qingran once heard the man in black mention that if he was killed, he would give her a token before he died, and asked her to find a way to take it and throw it into the Sea of Falling Stars.
So now, is he ready to die
Lu Qingran looked up at the man in black.
Through the black veil, she couldn't see the expression on the other person's face clearly.
She turned her head to look at the four silent blue-robed cultivators in the treetops, they were still standing there quietly.
Lu Qingran couldn't see the realm of these four people. Thinking about it, they must be much higher than himself and stronger than this person now, which made him so afraid.
She clenched her fist suddenly, grasped the jade pendant tightly, and stood up.
Lu Qingran spread her arms, stood in front of the man in black, looked up at the four blue-robed cultivators: "You..."
She swallowed with some fear, turned her head and squinted at the man in black.
Lu Qingran closed her eyes, blushed and mustered up her courage and said loudly: "You can't hurt him!"
"Heh—" The man in black sneered again from behind.
This time, the joy in the laughter was more palpable.
It seemed to be laughing at Lu Qingran's overreaching, but also... admiring her bravery.
Lu Qingran's face burned even more, but he still tried his best to straighten his back, and looked up at the four strange cultivators: "He...he is not a bad person! You can't hurt him!"
"Hehe..." the man in black laughed softly.
Under the black veil, those eyes that were always cold and ruthless also became warmer.
Like the perennial snow on the top of the mountain, it was finally blown by the spring breeze and began to melt a little.
Lu Qingran stomped her feet, and whispered in shame and indignation: "Don't laugh!"
"Silly boy." The man in black seemed to sigh softly.
He didn't intend to move, but now he stood up slowly while supporting the boulder.
He took a step forward, walked to Lu Qingran's side, and stood shoulder to shoulder with her.
The man in black was tall, standing out like this made Lu Qingran very cuddly.
"Stand behind me." His tone was light, and his eyes on the four cultivators became sharper.
"It's not that easy to hurt me." He said casually, even though he was hurt, the arrogance in his tone didn't diminish in the slightest.
"Come on." The man in black raised his hand, pointing his pale fingertips at one of the cultivators.
"You two misunderstood." One of the four cultivators who had been silent since their appearance suddenly spoke.
He said turning sideways, letting a man behind him step out.
The fifth cultivator...
The man in black narrowed his eyes, and his other hand hanging by his side had already clasped a magic weapon.
Jindan period
Usually it's nothing to worry about.
Now, every additional cultivator may become the last straw that breaks the camel's back.
Even if it's just building a foundation.
Misunderstand? He sneered in his heart.
The four Nascent Soul cultivators stood in a fan shape, and they must have moved extremely quickly, encircling him and Lu Qingran in the center in an instant.
What misunderstanding could there be? !
"Two fellow daoists..." The Jindan cultivator who just arrived had a smile on his face, "I have no ill intentions towards you two. Excuse me, is this fellow daoist Lu Qingran Lu Qingran?"
"Eh?" Lu Qingran was startled, did she come to look for her
She subconsciously took a step closer to the man in black, and took a careful look at the cultivator.
Even though the other party had a smile on his face, she hesitated for a long time before slowly nodding: "I... I am Lu Qingran."
Lu Qingran took a deep breath, and subconsciously grabbed the arm of the man in black beside him. The other party didn't intend to break away from her, so she breathed a little sigh of relief, and raised her eyes to look at the golden core cultivator: "May I ask you, what can you do for me?"
"That's how it is." The golden core cultivator explained with a smile: "I'm a clerk in the Huajiang Mansion of the cultivator alliance. You owed the Lingshi to fellow daoist Meng Qi and wrote down the IOU. I wonder if fellow daoist Lu still remembers it?"
Lu Qingran was stunned: "... I remember."
"That's good." The golden core cultivator seemed to be relieved, and his smile became more gentle. "Now, Fellow Daoist Meng entrusts our cultivator alliance to recover the debt for her. Please also ask Fellow Daoist Lu to pay back the money."
Lu Qingran blinked his eyes, his head was still in chaos, and he didn't react at all.
Meng Qi entrusted the Alliance of Cultivators to collect the debt
She was a little dazed.
So these people, didn't they come to hunt and kill themselves and...his
She subconsciously turned her head to look at the man in black beside her, and clearly felt that the arm she was holding carefully was also stiff.
Lu Qingran naturally knew about the alliance of cultivators.
I also know that the Alliance of Cultivators will indeed help the Cultivators to do these things, which are the rules set after the catastrophe thousands of years ago.
No matter how fierce the cultivators have been fighting openly and secretly in these years, the rules formulated by the cultivator alliance are still obeyed by everyone.
Lu Qingran swallowed nervously again, always feeling that the scene in front of her was familiar.
Meng Qi...Junior Sister Meng chased people to beg for spirit stones, and it really hasn't changed at all.
"Fellow Daoist Lu." The Golden Core Cultivator of the Cultivator Alliance reminded her again patiently, "Fellow Daoist Meng asked to recover the spirit stone that Fellow Daoist Lu owed her within one day. Please don't embarrass us, and pay back the money as soon as possible."
Lu Qingran: "..."
Her face was even more burned than before, and she was watched by five strange and powerful cultivators.
With a man in black beside her, she opened her mouth and said in a voice like a mosquito, "But... but I don't... I don't have so many spirit stones."
Lu Qingran said hesitantly.
Not to mention the ninth-grade spirit stones, the eighth-grade spirit stones are astronomically out of reach for a foundation builder like her.
Lu Qingran only felt that six pairs of eyes seemed to be shooting at her, she was so ashamed that she wished she could cover her face and run away immediately.
Her family is rich, and her life has been considered good since she was born.
Later, he was favored by the head of Qingfeng Valley, who thought her medical talent was extraordinary, so he brought her back to Qingfeng Valley as his personal disciple.
As soon as she started, she was extremely favored by her master. Even the senior brothers and sisters who started earlier than her were very polite and polite to her.
Even if something happened to Qingfenggu later, she was criticized by all her classmates, and she was quickly taken away by the man in black, and she didn't feel too embarrassed.
But now, in front of so many people, they are being pursued in public.
Lu Qingran's face became more and more red, her eyelashes trembled slightly, and her eye sockets were red.
She had a sore nose and couldn't figure out why Junior Sister Meng Qi would treat her like this.
At any rate, they used to be from the same family, and Junior Sister Meng Qi earned so many spirit stones, as a foundation builder, she wouldn't be short of money.
Why did she push herself like this? embarrass yourself? !
"But this IOU was left by Fellow Daoist Lu himself, so it's not fake. Then..." the Jindan cultivator frowned, "How many spiritual stones does Fellow Daoist Lu have?"
"One... One hundred and three grade spirit stones." With trembling hands, Lu Qingran took out all his spirit stones from the storage bag.
Her eyelashes trembled even more, and her nose was sour. When he took out the spirit stone, tears rolled down his smooth cheeks.
The man in black: "..."
He turned his head and glanced at Lu Qingran. The other party's tears finally made him recover from the shock of finding out that these people were only here to collect debts.
He took a deep breath and said in a cold voice, "How much Lingshi does she owe? I'll pay it back for her."
While speaking, the man in black wiped the storage bag, and then took out a small kit.
To be honest, he kind of despises these people.
What alliance of cultivators? !
For the IOU between the two Foundation Establishment cultivators, four Nascent Soul cultivators and one Golden Core cultivator were dispatched to collect the debt.
If the alliance of cultivators of the four worlds in the three thousand worlds is at this level, huh, it seems that it will be over sooner or later if they don't do it.
"That's fine." The golden core cultivator said with a smile: "Three ninth-grade spirit stones, five hundred eight-grade spirit stones."
The man in black: "...how much?!"
He thought he had heard wrong.
"Three ninth-grade spirit stones, and five hundred eighth-grade spirit stones." The golden core cultivator repeated patiently.
The hand of the man in black holding the kit froze instantly.
He was extremely embarrassed, neither did he throw out the kit, nor did he take it back.
If it was before he was injured and forced to leave there, let alone three ninth-grade spirit stones, even if there were three hundred, he would not take it seriously.
But now, there are only two hundred eighth-grade spirit stones in the kit.
The black-clothed man escaped from there all alone, with nothing else on his body except three life-saving magic weapons and hundreds of eighth-grade spirit stones.
Lingshi has already spent a lot during this period, even if they took out all of them, it would still not be enough to pay back the fraction of what Lu Qingran owed.
Those three magic weapons must never be seen by those members of the Alliance of Cultivators.
The man in black froze in place.
Under the black veil, his cheeks, which were originally pale to the point of sickness, were also stained with two touches of dark red.
The kit in his hand was held tightly by him, neither was it taken back, nor was it thrown out.
"You junior sister..." After a long time, he glanced at Lu Qingran, gritted his teeth and said, "It's really hard to ask for money."
Lu Qingran's tears rolled down again, and she nodded desperately.
The man in black took a deep breath and threw the kit in his hand to the Cultivators Alliance.
"Take these first, and the rest..."
"I'm sorry." The Jindan cultivator said with a smile: "Fellow Daoist Meng Qi paid enough, we must recover the spirit stone that fellow Daoist Lu Qingran owed her before tomorrow evening."
The tone of the man in black instantly became irritable: "There are not so many spirit stones."
This is probably the case of Longyou being caught by shrimps in shallow water!
He never thought that one day, he would be forced to look like a rascal who wanted to renege on his debt because of a few ninth-grade spirit stones.
Meng Qi, right? !
He remembered!
"Then..." the Jindan cultivator said with a smile, "We won't force the two of you too hard. According to the usual practice, we will advance the debt to Fellow Daoist Meng tomorrow on behalf of Fellow Daoist Lu."
As he spoke, he popped out a small porcelain bottle towards Lu Qingran: "This is a soul restraining pill, fellow daoist Lu, please take it. Next, we will assign fellow daoists some tasks until you earn enough spirit stones."
The golden core cultivator paused, and then said: "When the time comes, I will naturally give you the antidote."
Holding the small porcelain bottle, Lu Qingran was shocked.
The Soul Concentrating Pill can leave a mark on the cultivator's spiritual sea. The most special thing is that only the cultivator who refines this soul restraining pill can remove the brand left by this pill.
As long as she obeys, it means that from now on, she will be controlled by these people and must be obedient.
Lu Qingran gripped the black-clothed man's arm tightly again in fear.
Her tears fell faster, she didn't want to take the soul restraining pill... she was really scared!
The man in black seemed to sigh softly again.
He has completely calmed down, and his eyes are sharper than before.
He said to the Golden Core cultivator, "Give me one."
"I'll take the mission with her," he said.
"Okay." The golden core cultivator pondered for a while, and popped out another small porcelain bottle.
The man in black swallowed the soul restraining pill without hesitation.
"Send missions." He said coldly: "National Soul Seventh Realm, you can give missions with higher rewards as much as possible."
"Then it's hard work, Fellow Daoist." The Jindan cultivator smiled slightly.
He stared at Lu Qingran and also took the Soul Containing Pill, and then popped out a bamboo slip: "Xuanyun Villa asks for help, there are demon cultivators around Huajiang Mansion who are wounding people with immortal vines, please go and kill these demon cultivators. The task will be The settlement is based on the number of demon cultivators killed. Killing a demon cultivator of the fourth rank will reward one hundred and eighth rank spirit stones."
The man in black snorted coldly, and under Lu Qingran's worried gaze, he turned around and walked towards the big tree he was sitting on just now.
"Understood." He said coldly: "I will kill."
"Fellow daoist who worked hard." He, the golden core cultivator of the Cultivator Alliance, bowed his hands and saluted, then turned around and swept towards Huajiang Mansion with his four companions with a smile.
"You..." Lu Qingran waited for them to walk away before slowly walking to the man in black.
She half knelt down, her eyes still red: "I'm sorry, it's all my fault. But I didn't know that Junior Sister Meng would... would treat me like this."
While talking, Lu Qingran burst into tears again.
"Don't cry." The man in black said lightly, "Sooner or later, I will go and meet this Meng Qi."
Today's humiliation must be repaid a hundredfold by her.
Meng Qi was busy until the evening of the next day, and finally made nine pills.
She let out a long breath, contentedly stuffing the dark brown pills into nine different porcelain bottles.
It is obviously too late to sell it now, so she can only ask at tomorrow's auction if these pills can be directly counted as spirit stones and used to bid for Chi Yu.
Seeing that it was almost time, she turned around and slapped Xiao Qi who was lying on the bed, took him back to the animal house, and then walked quickly towards the alliance of cultivators.
At the same time, all the cultivators who are qualified to enter the Tianwai Tiantian brand auction house, as long as they are in Tianwaitian, the nameplates around them are all slightly shocked.
They subconsciously went to check the news, with surprised expressions on their faces in unison.
The author has something to say: woo woo woo, I’ve been preparing the testimonial for the success of regular updates for several days, but I can’t use it all the time, damn it!
