This Is Exactly How Cultivation Works

Chapter 531: All crows are black

Views:

Qi Yan, Kuixing City.

"The three secret realms that Qi Yan ceded to Wu Zhou are located in the eastern border. From the map, it looks like a tripod. But no matter what, the three secret realms are all within the territory of Qi Yan, so it is best to be cautious."

The mustard seed light fell to the ground, and three figures slowly appeared. Zhu Xiushi looked at the city ahead and gave careful instructions.

The main purpose was to remind Lu Bei that Wu Zhou had quelled the rebellion of the remnants of Qing Qian and had the upper hand in the confrontation with Qi Yan, and it was a perfect ending and it was not appropriate to cause any more trouble. A certain sect leader had better be honest and stop kneeling in front of the remains of Qi Yan monks and begging God to respect his life again.

Lu Bei heard the hidden meaning and said with a cute face: "This sect master is notoriously weak and never takes the initiative to cause trouble. But if cultivator Qi Yan takes the initiative to provoke me, then you can't blame this sect master for being cruel and ruthless."

“I, Wu Zhou, and Qi Yan have an agreement in advance that the Ji family cultivators will not cause trouble, but other forces in Xiantian Mansion…” Zhu Xiushi raised his eyebrows and gave Lu Bei a look that said you understand.

Lu Bei nodded, indicating that he understood.

Each country has its own national conditions.

The national conditions of Wu Zhou were that Xuanyin Division and Huangji Sect were closely intertwined and inseparable, and the Zhu family members were all internally fighting gods.

The national conditions of Xuanlong strictly prohibit internal strife. Everyone should not be idle and should go to the front line to resist the monsters. The Zhao family will take the lead and stand at the forefront.

The national condition of Qi Yan is that the Ji family and the cultivation forces within the country are fighting openly and secretly. For example, the Ji family is the royal family, and the various cultivation forces are wealthy and prestigious families that have been passed down for thousands of years. Xiantian Mansion is a microcosm of Qi Yan as a whole.

In Xiantian Mansion, Qi Yan is the undisputed boss, and the various cultivation forces are just obedient younger brothers on the surface. When there is money, everyone makes money together, and when there is trouble, everyone flees on their own.

According to the rules of Xiantian Prefecture, any secret realm in Qi and Yan belongs to Xiantian Prefecture. Sovereignty disputes shall be put aside and the two sides shall jointly develop and build a beautiful new Qi and Yan.

It was a very practical move. The Ji family united all the cultivation forces in the country by bundling them with interests. If there were any who disobeyed, they would be crushed by force.

When it came to Wu Zhou, the old Zhu family did not get involved in internal strife and tied up their interests. They pulled Yunzhong Pavilion and Dashan Temple onto the chariot and asked Tiejian League if they wanted to get on. Tiejian League said they had a car, but it was hit the next day.

Although Qi Yan's chariot has many problems, the headlights are not bright enough, the exhaust pipe is particularly black, and there is an endless debate about whether the four wheels should be front-wheel drive or rear-wheel drive, but with Ji Jia holding the steering wheel, it can generally still reach high speed.

Unexpectedly, he had an accident some time ago and was rear-ended by Wu Zhou.

The two drivers of the Ji family were not wearing seat belts and flew out on the spot. Afterwards, a passerby named Xuan Long testified that he saw the Ji family driving under the influence of alcohol, and Qi Yan was fully responsible.

There were complaints everywhere in Xiantian Mansion. The headlights said it had nothing to do with them, and the exhaust pipe said it was also a victim. They said that everyone could not pool funds for insurance next year, so the Ji family had to handle it on their own.

Then, the driver opened his wallet, and the parts discovered that he had hidden three gas cards.

It was agreed at the beginning that the interests would be tied together, and that the profits would be divided according to the amount earned, and no money would be left in the account. However, the leader not only reimbursed the money with public funds, but also tampered with the account books.

The headlights and exhaust pipe of the car were both very good, and the four wheels were no longer noisy. Everyone agreed that four-wheel drive was better. Even the wipers made a noisy sound, interfering with the normal driving of the Ji family driver.

In a nutshell, the broken car went to the repair shop and became even harder to drive after it came back.

Zhu Xiushi was hinting at something. The Ji family readily took out the three secret realms. On the one hand, it was to compensate Wu Zhou, and on the other hand, it was to throw out bait to divert conflicts and make the disobedient younger brothers fight openly and secretly and unable to unite as one.

The conflict can be limited to the younger brothers, or it can be transferred to Wu Zhou.

How to do it…

The Ji family did not make any move. The world of immortal cultivation is full of material desires, and people are unwilling to work hard without benefits. If they don't want to be surpassed by others, they have to seize other people's opportunities. A battle to convince others with reason is inevitable.

With a lot of experience in front of him, Lu Bei silently gave a thumbs up and thanked his old friend from the Ji family for giving him so many rockets.

"Sister Zhu, there is one thing I am not sure about."

Lu Bei raised his hand and put it on Zhu Xiushi's shoulder, rubbing his hands and saying, "Did the Ji family consult with your Zhu family on this trip to the secret realm and pay Wu Zhou's thugs to teach their little brother a lesson?"

"Master Lu, you think too much. The Ji family is just stupid, not crazy. Why would they spend money to hire someone to break their hands and feet?" Zhu Xiu Shi immediately laughed and denied it with a smile.

"Is it possible that it was a fly gathering honey, pretending to be crazy?"

"Impossible. Absolutely impossible."

"Haha, their hands and feet are not obedient. They need to be dismantled so that they can be replaced with new ones. Since our clan leader is from the Ji family and doesn't want to be a bad guy, it's worthwhile to spend some money." Lu Bei chuckled. The more he thought about it, the more he felt that something was fishy. The Zhu family must have taken the money.

Now the question is, how much money did the Ji family spend, and was Mr. Lu’s share withheld by the Zhu family

Damn it, not only did they dismiss his princess, but they even cheated him out of his wages.

"Master Lu, really not."

Zhu Xiushi sighed helplessly. It was someone who had too many thoughts and made things complicated. After explaining several times, seeing that Lu Bei was not giving in, he could only clench his fist and cough lightly, "Master Lu, don't be like this. It's not proper to flirt with each other in broad daylight. At least wait until dark. Your senior sister is still watching."

"It's okay. My senior sister is a reasonable person. She knows that I'm doing serious things and won't mind."

Lu Bei snorted coldly, and the moment he turned his head, he instantly changed his expression to an honest man, looking at Bai Jin in a naive manner: "Right, Senior Sister?"

Bai Jin: “…”

To be honest, I mind it a lot.

As an outsider, seeing Lu Bei and Zhu Xiushi being so close is purely due to their personalities. Flies don't bite seamless eggs, flies make friends with dung beetles, birds of a feather flock together, and all crows are black.

Since they are not good people and have a lot of common topics, it is easy for them to get together.

As an insider, especially an insider, seeing Lu Bei being intimate with a beautiful woman, even though he knew there was no **, it still looked very uncomfortable.

Bai Jin felt the need to correct it. Perhaps in Lu Bei's eyes, this was just acting to suit the situation and conceal his true inner thoughts, but wasn't this action also a form of teasing

If you flirt too much, naturally one or two people will believe it.

The two men were arm in arm and bickering, occasionally telling a few obscure dirty jokes. Zhu Xiushi became more and more excited as he talked, but suddenly he realized something was wrong and turned to look at Bai Jin who was standing beside him.

“Hiss, hiss, hiss—”

"What's wrong?"

"You kid, this senior sister looks a lot like the master!"

"No, it's obvious that the Master looks a lot like my Senior Sister."

As the two were chatting, a blinding golden light came from the sky, circled over Kuixing City, and then disappeared.

Golden light splashed like water, and two figures came in front of Lu Bei and the other two. The old man in the lead had a pale golden complexion and stared at Lu Bei expressionlessly.

This man was dressed in plain clothes, without any fluctuations of magical power, and his cloudy eyes were devoid of spiritual light. At first glance, he looked no different from the ordinary people in the city who had not practiced cultivation.

"I am Zhu Xiushi from Wu Zhou, nice to meet you, senior from the Ji family." Zhu Xiushi withdrew his hand from Lu Bei's shoulder, his face straightened, and his words were quite polite.

The old man nodded, his eyes still on Lu Bei: "Young man has a good sword spirit, and he is blessed with the natural beauty of heaven and earth. I think you are the leader of the Heavenly Sword Sect."

Lu Bei nodded. Although he didn't like Monk Qi Yan, he didn't want to hit someone who smiled at him. Since the other party praised him when they met, he couldn't say anything bad to him. He praised him back, "The old man has good taste."

"…" x4

The old man was silent for a while, then he made a comment that was very different from ordinary people. He then turned into golden light and disappeared, leaving behind the woman who was accompanying him.

Only then did Lu Bei notice that the woman had a natural beauty, an alluring appearance, and her emerald green palace skirt outlined her figure, which was indescribably graceful and delicate. She was a beauty that was one in a million.

If it weren't for the example of Fox Three, he would have been shocked by the beauty and would have gone up to her to start a conversation.

Nowadays, it’s just average stuff.

With the beauty in front of him, Lu Bei remained unmoved. He released his hand on Zhu Xiushi's shoulder, took two steps back, walked to Bai Jin, and skillfully held her slender waist.

Ji Jie: “…”

He looked at Bai Jin and then at Zhu Xiu Shi, and was quite confused about the complicated relationship between the three.

Without thinking too much, she bowed respectfully and said, "My daughter Ji Jie greets Senior Zhu and Sect Master Lu. The elders in the clan have important matters to attend to, so they asked me to entertain the two distinguished guests. If there is anything I can do, I will not refuse."

Ji Jie

What a good name, what a fate!

Lu Bei raised his eyebrows, looked at Bai Jin beside him, then looked at Ji Jie in front of him, thinking that if he took one of their names, he would be the legitimate principal of the high school.

"Boy, your princess is here."

While talking to Ji Jie, Zhu Xiushi also sent a message to Lu Bei, pointing out that Ji Jie was the beautiful princess. If Lu Bei had any ideas, she would find an excuse to get Bai Jin out of the way.

Having said that, Zhu Xiu Shi was not worried at all that the sect leader would be seduced by women. From his eyes, one could tell that the sect leader only had eyes for his senior sister.

As expected, Lu Bei refused directly, claiming that he had no worldly desires. If possible, he would drive the princess away, and it would be best if she did not appear again in the future, as he was afraid that his senior sister would misunderstand him.

Zhu Xiushi secretly laughed, his face expressionless: "So you are the princess of the Ji family. You are a noble and noble person, why do you lower yourself to run around for the three of us? You should return to the palace quickly."

"Senior, please don't make fun of me. In terms of noble status, both you and Sect Master Lu are superior to me. The elders in my family ordered me to accompany you to the secret realm. I am honored that you don't blame the host for being impolite in entertaining guests." Ji Jie replied in a sweet voice.

As he spoke, he smiled at Lu Bei.

"Master Lu, this woman is something!"

Zhu Xiushi sent a message to Lu Bei and praised him in his heart at the same time, secretly thinking that he was lucky. If Bai Jin had not accompanied her on this trip, she would most likely have to sacrifice her life in order to keep the Tianjian Sect's belt.

The human life here refers to digging a hole and burying Ji Jie.

"It's not small, but it's far worse than you."

Lu Bei replied confidently. While he was speaking, Bai Jin interrupted and wondered why the princess of the Ji family always looked at her man with lustful eyes.

Upon hearing this question, Lu Bei was no longer sleepy and proudly said, "Sister, you have found a treasure. To be honest, I am a popular guy outside. Wu Zhou, Xiong Chu, Xuan Long, and even Qi Yan under my feet are all thinking about getting a piece of me. They will kidnap the newly born hostage in ten months."

Bai Jin frowned slightly: "Junior brother, what on earth did you do outside? Why do these four countries think that the honey trap is feasible?"

Lu Bei: “…”

It hits the issue deep in his soul and immediately makes him unable to solve it.

"Don't play dead, speak!"

"What do you mean? I don't know the answer to this question either."

Lu Bei was speechless and used his old trick to use the Grand Master to defend himself: "Senior Sister, you can ask the Grand Master about this question. What is so good about the Immortal Sword Intention? I would rather give up my innocence and sit down with me to discuss it."

Bai Jin spat lightly: "Junior brother, don't talk nonsense. The master is not that kind of person."

"Indeed, she is not human."
