Aspiring to the Immortal Path Chapter 69: Ask for help
Wolves are anger fuel.
When two angry women argue and bicker with each other, there is no wolf at all.
If things continue to develop like this, then the outcome of the matter is really likely to be that Xu Miaoran pushed Tang Jie onto Shen Qingdan's bed. No matter how extreme it was, it was even possible to watch them perform.
Fortunately...or unfortunately, it was only Xu Chen and Tang Jie who lost the wolf.
So after just flying for a short distance, Tang Jie threw away the two of them and said, "Have you had enough trouble?"
The two girls watched Tang Jie together.
Tang Jie sighed and said to Xu Miaoran, "You don't really want me to climb into her bed, do you?"
Then look at Shen Qingdan: "You don't really want to consummate your marriage with me, do you?"
In the end, he spread his hands and said: "Actually, neither of us wants to do something, so why do it just for the sake of temporary pleasure?"
Xu Miaoran hummed: "What am I afraid of? Who doesn't have three wives and four concubines? Just treat my man as having a house of concubines."
Shen Qingdan's eyes widened: "What a joke, am I still afraid that I won't be able to consummate my husband's marriage? Also, you'd better understand that if you enter the Tang family, you will be the concubine!"
Xu Miaoran was furious and retorted: "Okay, you will be the first wife and you will remain a widow for the rest of your life!"
Shen Qingdan also said angrily: "No matter how much I remain a widow, I will be better than you, a seductress who seduces men. The seductress of Tianya Hai Pavilion really deserves her reputation!"
Xu Miaoran: "It's better than a wild woman popping up out of nowhere. How can I, Tianya Haige, be someone you can covet and talk nonsense about?"
Shen Qingdan: "No matter how small my Xiaoyao Palace is, I am still a young master. No matter how big the Tianyahai Pavilion is, it is not yours! You are only the daughter of a true king, and you cannot be called a member of the Tianyahai Pavilion. Where is the young master?"
Tang Jie slapped his forehead: "Here we go again."
Finally, the two women no longer mentioned the matter of consummating their marriage, and the topic did not know how to change. They automatically turned to status, and neither of them had any intention of changing it back.
Xu Miaoran is the daughter of the big sect, and Shen Qingdan is the young leader of the small sect. They are evenly matched, so when they are fighting for each other, they are unambiguous and do not give in to each other. Finally, they were in the air now, and they no longer had to attract countless onlookers every time they quarreled. To be honest, by the end of their quarrel, they were already acting like shrews, and it was no longer suitable for people to see them.
Tang Jie felt a headache and couldn't help shouting: "Have you had enough trouble?"
This roar was full of energy and a bit majestic. Sure enough, the two women stopped at the same time and looked at Tang Jie together.
Tang Jie took a deep breath and then said: "You are the daughter of a true king and you are a young master of Xiaoyao. You are both cultivators. What does it look like to make such a fuss here? Can't you sit down and talk carefully if you have anything to say? ? This matter is nothing in the first place, why should we make a big fuss out of ourselves because of a maid’s ignorant words?”
Xu Miaoran and Shen Qingdan looked at each other, snorted at the same time, and turned away from each other. Although they were still angry, they finally stopped arguing.
In fact, they also knew that such a quarrel was extremely indecent, but they were so angry that they couldn't calm down for a while. At this moment, Tang Jie stopped them and stopped.
At this time, Tang Jie said to Shen Qingdan: "The cause of this matter is still with the little maid. In fact, Miaoran has already punished her after that day. I will tell you about this matter on her behalf." ."
Seeing him like this, Shen Qingdan snorted: "That little girl is really hateful. She even said that I came here after a man. She is really uneducated."
She was referring to Sang Huai. Xu Miaoran was about to change his face, but was stopped by Tang Jie. He turned to Shen Qingdan and said, "By the way, why did you come to Yahai before I asked?"
Tang Jie asked this question in a reasonable manner. In fact, he deliberately gave Shen Qingdan a chance to explain to relieve her anger and change the subject in time.
Sure enough, when Shen Qingdan heard this, his face brightened and he said, "I came to Yahai this time because I was entrusted by someone to open a fairy palace."
"The Immortal Palace?" Tang Jie was slightly stunned. He never expected that Shen Qingdan would give him such an answer.
The so-called fairy palace is actually a palace-style magic weapon or sacred treasure. Due to their size, this kind of treasure can lay out a large number of magic circles and restrictions, so it is often extremely powerful.
Tianya Hai Pavilion and Xiaoyao Palace are both famous palaces of the Immortal Family. Even the sect is named after them, which shows its value.
Tang Jie did not expect that Shen Qingdan came here for this, so he blurted out: "What palace?"
Shen Qingdan shook her head: "I don't know either."
It turns out that three months ago, Shen Qingdan suddenly received a message in Xiaoyao Palace, stating that there would be an Immortal Palace in Yahai, and he wanted to ask Shen Qingdan to help open the palace. As long as he did this, I am willing to donate most of the resources in the palace to you.
Because Xiaoyao Palace owns palace treasures, it has lived in it for many years and traveled everywhere. What it is best at is opening various closed fairy palaces. In this regard, even Tianya Haige is not better than them. .
Xiaoyao Palace has accepted such invitations before, and this time because it said that most of the resources in the palace would be given, Shen Qingdan even came in person. Unexpectedly, he encountered this kind of invitation just after arriving in Yahai. thing.
"So that's it, then you still have the intention to quarrel here?" Tang Jie said in a half-joking tone to try to lighten the atmosphere.
Shen Qingdan glared at Tang Jie angrily: "I don't know where the Xian Family Palace is. The person who entrusted me has not shown up yet, so I can only wait. Anyway, I am idle..."
Tang Jie smiled and said, "Isn't that person trying to trick you?"
Shen Qingdan rolled her eyes at him again: "Do you think everyone is as insincere as you? The person who entrusted me paid a deposit of 100,000 soul coins. If he really doesn't fulfill his contract, I will be happy to make the money in vain. Besides, if that person hadn’t appeared until now, do you think I would have told you this so casually?”
Tang Jie held up his hand and said, "Thank you, girl, for clarifying this matter. Please be considerate."
"That's all." Shen Qingdan said lazily: "It's better to restrain the servants from now on."
As he said that, he turned around and left.
Seeing Shen Qingdan leave like this, Tang Jie and Xu Miaoran looked at each other, then threw themselves on the ground and laughed at the same time.
Tang Jie smiled and said, "Are you enjoying it? I didn't realize that you still have such a hot temper."
Xu Miaoran replied grumblingly: "Besides, if it wasn't for your sake, I would never have spared her."
Seeing how tough her mouth was, Tang Jie sighed: "If I had known, I wouldn't have stopped you from consummating my marriage with her."
Xu Miaoran glared: "How dare you!"
She put her hands on her hips and said, "I am testing you to see if you have the evil intention. Finally, you still know what you are interested in. If...if..."
After she finished speaking to support the scene, she couldn't speak anymore. She didn't know what she thought of, but she covered her face and burst out laughing.
Tang Jie was speechless when he saw her like that. He pulled her and said, "Look at your silly smile, let's go."
"Where to go?"
"Back to the inn, Yiyi came with a message saying that someone was looking for me..."
————————
Back at the inn, Tang Jie saw Yiyi walking out and said, "He is waiting for you in the inner hall."
Tang Jie nodded and went in, and saw a person pacing back and forth in the inner hall with an anxious look on his face, but it was the old man Yun Chang Anyun, the captain of the ship who had been rescued by Tang Jie not long ago.
Seeing Tang Jie coming in, Old Man Yun hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Master Tang, you are back. Please help my Yun family this time!"
"Old Yun, please get up." Tang Jie hurriedly helped the old man up: "Speak slowly if you have anything to say, is there something wrong with the Ruixue?".
The old man shook his head: "The Ruixue is fine. We have returned from Qianfan Island. But the Yun family is about to face a disaster..."
As the old man spoke, Tang Jie finally understood what happened.
The Yun family was originally one of the four major Yahai families located on Lingfeng Island. It had strong financial resources and many spiritual masters in the family. It was said that there were several cultivators who had reached the peak of transcendence.
The main business of the Yun family is silver scale trading. The silver scales come from a type of siren, the barracuda. It is so named because of its long and slender body like a shuttle and its sharp mouth like a spear. This fish swims extremely fast and has silvery scales. It is a relatively rare material for cultivating immortals. Barracudas are mainly concentrated in the Leshan Island and Nanxing Island areas. This area is an affiliated island of the Yun Family, so the sea areas in this area have always been controlled by the Yun Family.
About forty days ago, the fishermen of the Yun family went fishing and encountered a school of barracuda. At that time, the fishermen on the boat used the silver silkworm net specially made by the Yun family to try to catch this school of barracuda. Although Barracuda belongs to the Kraken, it is born with a low rank and poor strength. It can be easily caught by prepared fishermen. Occasionally, high-level ones can be dealt with by calling the local spiritual master.
But this time the situation is different.
Somehow, the school of barracuda broke through the Yun family's silver silkworm net. Not only that, he also took the initiative to attack the Yun family fishermen, killing most of them on the spot, leaving only three people who ran away in the boat.
After this incident, the Yun family sent three spiritual masters.
But the result surprised them. None of the three spiritual masters came back.
The Yun family no longer dared to underestimate this matter, so they could only mobilize all the spiritual masters to explore the sea to see what happened. As a result, they encountered the Sawtooth Shark and the Octopus Giant Chapter, which are relatively famous in that area of the sea.
More than twenty spiritual masters from the Yun family started a battle with thirteen sawtooth shark beasts with middle-level intelligence, two eight-clawed giant seals with high-level intelligence, and some other sea monsters.
The outcome of this battle was unexpected, because the loser turned out to be the one with the upper hand.
The spiritual masters of the Yun family were defeated. More than ten spiritual masters were killed on the spot, and only seven of them escaped. Three of them were seriously injured and could not recover.
In this case, the Ruixue, which was facing a mission to sea, had to give up the **** of the spiritual master and set off alone. If Tang Jie hadn't taken action in time, the Ruixue would have been doomed.
In addition to delivering goods, the Ruixue's mission this time also has an important mission, which is to immediately recruit enough spiritual masters for the Yun family. The defeat of this battle has had a profound impact on the Yun family. Not only has the income from fish products been greatly reduced as a result, but other companies are also ready to take action.
Unfortunately, spiritual masters cannot be hired only if you have money. Although Yun Changan offered a high price for this, there were only very few applicants. So far, Yun Changan has only hired two spiritual masters.
At this moment, the Yun family's crisis came again.
Just when Yun Changan was rushing to Lingfeng Island with the two spiritual masters and his income, he received a letter from the Yun family. It turns out that just seven days ago, Leshan Island, the fundamental base of the Yun family, was besieged by sea monsters.
This kind of thing like a sea monster attacking an island has not happened before.
Every time the number of sea monsters increases and their strength increases, the ferocity of the sea monsters will be stimulated, and they will even join forces to actively attack humans.
The sawtooth shark beast, the eight-clawed giant seal, and even the faceless dragon, the overlord of that area, all appeared one after another and attacked Leshan Island.
Finally, under the Yun family's century-old management, Leshan Island has all kinds of defensive measures in place. The Yun family defends Leshan Island relying on the favorable geographical location. However, as waves of sea monsters come in, the Yun family's situation becomes increasingly pessimistic. .
Under such circumstances, the Yun family's biography came into the hands of Yun Chang'an. The head of the family ordered Yun Chang'an to hire a powerful spiritual master to save the Yun family no matter what. Otherwise, without Leshan Island, there would be no To the Yun family.
Poor old man Yun is a mortal who doesn't know any powerful spiritual masters. At this time, the rumors about Tang Jie and Xu Miaoran happened to come into his ears. The old man seemed to have picked up a life-saving straw and hurriedly came to find Tang Jie. .
In fact, what he really wanted to beg was Xu Miaoran, but he also knew that he was of low status and was not qualified to beg Xu Miaoran. He could only find Tang Jie.
After understanding what happened, Tang Jie thought for a while and said: "There is something I don't quite understand. Hasn't Yahai always been under the governance of the major factions? Since Leshan Island is in danger, why not just ask Tianya Haige to take action? ? The six major sects are worshiped by the world, and they will naturally eliminate disasters for the world."
Old man Yun lamented: "We thought too, but Leshan Island is not under the direct jurisdiction of Tianyahai Pavilion. It is under the management of Qiongya Pavilion. Qiongya Pavilion has sent spiritual masters to help, but the sea monsters are so powerful. The impact is far wider than just Leshan Island. Qiongya Pavilion is struggling to support itself even though it is hard to support a single tree. It is said that a huge demon in disguise has even appeared in the Qiongya Pavilion headquarters."
"So that's it." Tang Jie understood.
He did not ask why Qiongya Pavilion did not ask for help from Tianyahai Pavilion. As a disciple of the Xiyue Sect, he knew the relationship between the major sects very well.
Unless it is an invasion by a foreign enemy, if it is an ordinary danger, it is no problem for the small sect below to ask for help, but they have always had to pay huge fees and sometimes have to agree to some harsh conditions.
This is what the Xiyue Sect's Gongtang does. Whenever the sect is in trouble, Yan Changfeng will rush there with a pen in his left hand and a sword in his right hand. Sign an unequal treaty, hand over a lot of benefits, wave your sword, and eliminate all crises.
It should be for this reason that Qiongya Pavilion is reluctant to ask Tianyahai Pavilion unless necessary. They can hold on, but families with limited strength like the Yun family are suffering.
Leshan Island was besieged, and the Yun family was in a precarious situation, so they sent this old man everywhere to ask for help.
Hearing what Old Yun said, Tang Jie also sighed.
However, although he sympathized, he could only say: "I'm sorry, I can't help you with this matter."
"Young Master Tang!" Yun Changan had already shouted.
Tang Jie still just shook his head: "Asking Tianyahai Pavilion to send people to rescue is suspected of interference. After all, I am not from Yahai, I am just a foreigner. I am not qualified to say such things or do such things. Although Miss Xu and I are good friends, we can't lose our duty and see ourselves clearly. As for myself, I'm just a ninth-level cultivator. It won't help the overall situation if I go away. Besides, I still have my own things to do. I have to do it, so... I can only apologize."
Yun Changan's heart felt cold after hearing this. He looked at Tang Jie for a while, and suddenly shouted loudly: "What's your business? Aren't you just accompanying the young lady from the Xu family to travel around? ".
This can be said to be the wrong thing to say, but Tang Jie could understand the old man's mood and anxiety, but in the end he just frowned and said nothing.
Yun Changan burst into tears.
He swayed his body and walked out, saying loudly: "What cultivators are, they are just a group of selfish and greedy ghosts! What kind of immortals are they cultivating? They seek longevity, immortality, freedom, and invincibility. After all, they are not For selfishness. I don’t have a heart for the world, but I want to dominate the world. I’m just talking and dreaming. It’s a beautiful dream in Huangliang!”
The old man used three dreams to criticize loudly in one breath, looking up to the sky and laughing wildly.
He walked out of the inn and shouted to the sky: "The way of heaven has no eyes! The way of heaven has no heart! The way of heaven has no benevolence!"
He shouted loudly, and one of the island owner's guards wanted to step forward to hold the old man, but Tang Jie stopped him, looked at Yun Changan and said: "Let him say... what he said is right. What a cultivator , are originally a group of selfish ghosts who only know how to reap the benefits and do not know how to fulfill their responsibilities. In Qixia Realm, some things are never natural disasters, but **."
One of the guards said: "But this person is so bold that he even dares to attack Heaven."
"Just criticize him." Tang Jie said calmly: "If Heaven had eyes, a thunderbolt would naturally come down and kill him. Since Heaven doesn't care, why should humans care?"
The guard was speechless and should finally retreat.
Yun Changan shouted on the long street, walking with disheveled hair.
A sudden rumble of thunder sounded in the sky, which startled Tang Jie.
However, the thunder and lightning did not strike and electrocute the old man. Instead, heavy rain poured down.
In the rainy night, Tang Jie looked at the old man's back and felt an inexplicable sense of desolation in his heart.
"Do you regret it a little?" Xu Miaoran's voice sounded behind him.
Tang Jie didn't even look back: "Did you hear everything?"
Xu Miaoran said kindly: "Actually, not to mention you, even I can't interfere in the affairs of Haige at will. Although I am the daughter of the true king, when the six major sects act, how can I be a small county? Can the Lord decide?”
"I know, but no matter what, I am selfish after all."
"It's us...we are selfish. ~IndoMTL.com~ Xu Miaoran replied. She looked at Tang Jieyu and smiled sweetly: "Whether it's good or bad, I will decide and act together with you. Next time If this happens again, remember not to leave me alone. ”
Tang Jie was stunned for a moment.
He stretched out his hand and took Xu Miaoran's waist.
This action made Xu Miaoran's body stiffen suddenly, and then relaxed little by little.
"Let's go back to the room." Tang Jie said.
"What are you doing when you go back to your room?" Xu Miaoran felt his heart beating like a deer.
"Silly girl." Tang Jie lightly scratched her nose: "I just want to find a place where no one is around to talk to you."
Xu Miaoran's heart relaxed.
"Of course, if you want to do something else, I have no problem with it."
Xu Miaoran was so embarrassed that she slapped Tang Jie on the back: "Go to hell, you pervert!"
