I Am a Late Bloomer In the World of Immortality Chapter 153

Chapter 153: Marriage, leaving the Huang family (please subscribe)

"However, Yan'er's foundation building this time was still too dangerous. He didn't notify me in advance and built the foundation on his own."

 After being happy, Wei Tu couldn't help but feel a cold sweat about Wei Yan's adventure.

Before entering the secret realm, although he gave each of Wei Yan's siblings a high-quality demon refining talisman as a means of foundation building, this was just a precautionary measure on his part - to prevent him from accidentally dying in the secret realm of Yunze. The Yan siblings have no demon refining talisman to use when building their foundation.

 Hence, Wei Yan's adventure in building the foundation was beyond his expectation.

After all, Wei Yan's character has always been calm and disciplined, so it stands to reason that she would not make such risky moves—at least she would have to wait until the "double armor age" comes twenty years later, and will not have the opportunity to build a foundation pill before she can start to make a breakthrough.

If Wei Yan delayed the foundation building for a while until he returned from the Yunze Secret Realm, this time the foundation building would not be too risky.

In addition to finding seven pill-forming spiritual objects in Yunze Secret Realm, he also obtained three foundation-building spiritual objects.

—Yunze Secret Realm is not rich in foundation-building spiritual objects. These three foundation-building spiritual objects were obtained after he killed a "Jie Xiu" of Taixuanzong after he separated from Zhenren Qin.

 These foundation-building spiritual objects are enough for him to exchange for a foundation-building pill.

With the Foundation Establishment Pill protecting his heart, Wei Yan will not die even if he fails to establish the Foundation.

“Yan'er successfully built the foundation by herself and saved a Foundation Building Pill. Then this Foundation Building Pill can be used on Xiuwen.” Wei Tu thought to himself.

Originally, according to his plan, Wei Yan would first take the Foundation Establishment Pill, and then he would find a Foundation Establishment Spiritual Item, exchange it for the second Foundation Establishment Pill, and then use it on Wei Xiuwen.

This time, Wei Yan succeeded in building the foundation, and he did not need to find another spiritual object to build the foundation.

 What you have on hand is enough.

“Xiu Wen has no heirs, so I have three foundation-building spiritual things, and the extra one is of no use to me...”

Wei Tu fell into thinking.

He now has two directions to deal with the remaining foundation-building spiritual objects.

 One, he sold it, together with some of the shady “stolen items” he had on him, at auctions across the Zheng Kingdom in exchange for resources.

 The two of them sold this foundation-building spiritual item to Wei Fei at a friendly price.

"What's the choice?" Wei Tu shook his head. He still remembered the scene when Wei Fei wanted to give him the "Blood Food Pill".

Wei Fei shared the immortal cultivation method "Five Yuan Yun Spirit Body" with him. It can also be said that he did not understand the immortal cultivation method and wanted to find someone to study it with him.

 But the following "Small Eclipse Skill" and "Blood Food Pill" are entirely due to the care and trust of Wei Fei, a sworn brother.

 He was able to lend a hand to Kou Liang, an eldest brother who was not very close to him, but now how could he bear to not help Wei Fei within his ability.

 Sold Wei Fei's foundation-building spiritual item at a low price.

 He will lose spiritual stones, but the loss of hundreds of spiritual stones is completely out of his eyes.

Last time, Wei Fei wanted to "borrow" spiritual stones from him, but he refused. It was because Wei Fei was not motivated, and when the time came, he wanted to hold the Buddha's feet of him and Kou Hongying...

Of course he was not happy.

However, this misunderstanding has been clarified afterwards.

Wei Fei did not ask them to borrow such a large amount of spiritual stones, but he was clumsy and lost his words when speaking, which caused a misunderstanding between him and Kou Hongying.

“After this foundation-building spiritual item was sold to the second brother at a friendly price...the second brother raised money to buy the next foundation-building spiritual item. In his lifetime, he might not be able to hit the foundation-building realm again.”

Wei Tu thought.

 In his heart, the priority for foundation building for his children is higher than that of Wei Fei. If there is a foundation building pill, it will only be given to the Wei Yan siblings first, not to Wei Fei.

 But...he also hopes that the four brothers of Yishe can start well and end well.

At this moment, he has spare power to take care of Wei Fei, and Wei Fei has helped him before, and his kindness has not been exhausted. Of course, he is willing to help Wei Fei again this time.

 Think about this.

Wei Tu began to write a letter, asking Wei Fei for his opinion on whether he wanted to use the rest of his life to make a fortune, or wait until the end of his life to cultivate his descendants like Kou Liang.

  A few months later.

Wei Tu recovered from his injuries, his mana returned to its original state, and he became slightly more energetic.

 He waved, took the letter outside the door into his palm, and looked at it a few times.

This letter is Wei Fei's reply to him.

Regarding this foundation-building spiritual object, Wei Fei said that he was willing to use 2,500 spiritual stones to purchase it, and asked Wei Tu to keep it and exchange it for him when he collected enough spiritual stones.

 The market price of a foundation-building spiritual item is about three to four thousand spirit stones.

Two thousand five hundred spiritual stones, although a bit low, this foundation-building spiritual object was originally sold by Wei Tu to Wei Fei at a friendly price.

 So as long as the price offered by Wei Fei is acceptable, there is nothing to worry about.

"I just don't know...when will the second brother get these two thousand and five hundred spirit stones together." Wei Tu sighed secretly.

Wei Fei doesn't have any skills, nor does Fu Zhizhou dare to work hard to earn spiritual stones in the Yaolang Mountains. He wants to collect 2,500 spiritual stones, which will not happen overnight.

The remnants of the Wizard Immortal Master back then had been exhausted when Wei Fei broke through the foundation-building realm for the first time.

 See Wei Tu walking out of the inner courtyard.

 Huang Chengfu hurried over. He bowed to Wei Tu and said, "Cousin, the patriarch came to see you a few days ago and saw you retreating. The patriarch asked me to tell you that after you come out of retreat, go to the clan affairs hall to meet him."

 “The patriarch is looking for me?” Wei Tu was confused. He didn't understand why the patriarch Huang Changshun wanted to see him at this time.

“Is it because there is an emergency on the front line? The three major immortal sects have sent a mission to the Huang family in Heshan, to extract the foundation-building monks from the Huang family?”

Wei Tu's face was solemn.

 A few months ago, after returning to the Huang family in Heshan and learning about the rebellion of Huang Juzhi, the second ancestor of the Huang family, he had the idea of ​​​​leaving the Huang family in Heshan and choosing another family to worship.

He is a worshiper of the Huang family, and he is not a dead soldier of the Huang family. There is no need to continue to stay on the sinking ship of the Huang family in Heshan.

However, considering the favor given to him by the Heshan Huang Family, and the fact that it would be difficult to avoid the battle between good and evil after leaving the Heshan Huang Family... he continued to stay in the Huang Family and did not leave immediately.

But if the Huang family of Heshan planned to treat him like the Xia Qi master, and also wanted to send him to die on the battlefield in exchange for the Huang family's foundation to survive—

His departure from the Huang family in Heshan is inevitable and must be put on the agenda.

 Half a day later.

Weitu came to the clan affairs hall.

“Master Wei Fu, please take a seat.” Huang Changshun, the clan leader, saw Wei Tu arriving and enthusiastically invited Wei Tu to the table.

 Such behavior made Wei Tu a little flattered, but then he glanced at the few foundation-building monks in the hall and suddenly understood.

 In the secret territory of Yunze, all the seven foundation-building monks of the Huang family died.

 The second ancestor Huang Ju rebelled against the clan and took away two foundation-building monks of the Huang family.

At this time, the number of foundation-building monks in the Huang family dropped from twelve at the time of prosperity to only three, which was extremely miserable.

Without the support of Huang Xinglie, the ancestor of Jindan, the Huang family today would only be regarded as a slightly stronger foundation-building family.

As for the remaining three Huang family foundation builders, only the clan leader Huang Changshun has a cultivation level in the later stage of foundation construction, and the other two are all in the early stage of foundation construction.

  Not an exaggeration.

With Wei Tu's current strength, he has firmly ranked among the top three in Heshan Huang family's combat power.

From this point of view, how could the patriarch Huang Changshun not be enthusiastic about Wei Tu.

“This trip to the secret realm, my Huang family suffered a lot of losses. In addition to the death of Changkong and others, Master Yu also died unfortunately.”

“Now the only ones who can be worshiped by my Huang family are you, Xia Qi Master and Wei Fu Master.”

"I think Master Wei Talisman also saw the weakness of our Huang family..." When the clan leader Huang Changshun said this, he paused, looked at Wei Tu and said: "Only brave men can be rewarded. I, the Huang family, are willing to improve. The treatment given to the Talisman Guard Master in exchange for the full assistance of the Talisman Guard Master will help my Huang family overcome this difficulty!"

 Hearing these words, Wei Tu's tense expression softened slightly.

However, he did not let down his guard.

The number of people building the foundation of the Huang family has dropped sharply, and the middle layer has been severely damaged. It makes no sense that the Huang family would give priority to their own people to die, and then let him, an outsider, hide in the rear and enjoy the happiness.

 There is no such thing as a free lunch.

“When Changkong was still alive, he once proposed to me that he wanted to bring together the Guardian Talisman Master and Caiyu, but unfortunately, Caiyu was also on the list of those who died this time…”

After a few words, the patriarch Huang Changshun finally got to the point. He said: "A few days ago, my fifth daughter successfully established the foundation. She is young and cannot be more than a hundred years old. She has not yet agreed to get married. I wonder if Master Wei Fu is willing to marry my fifth daughter. This can be considered completed. A last wish of Changkong.”

 Huang Changshun knew that Huang Changkong was the one who led Wei Tu into the Huang family. Correspondingly, he was also the person with whom Wei Tu had the deepest friendship in the Huang family in Heshan.

 That's why he proposed the marriage at this moment through Huang Changkong's mouth.

Wei Tu had no particular objection to the marriage. If when he joined the Huang family in Heshan, Huang Changkong had matched him with not Huang Caiyu, but the "five girls" that Huang Changshun now calls, he would have agreed immediately.

 But it's different now.

The Huang family in Heshan is in crisis. He is getting married at this moment. If he gets too involved in it, he may get burned.

Wei Tu didn't need to think too much, he also knew that the number of monks coveting the “wealth” of the Huang family was as countless as the crucian carp crossing the river.

His being worshiped by the Huang family will not arouse too much "hostility" from outsiders, but if he is the son-in-law of the Huang family, this may not be possible.

Besides, after a trip to the Yunze Secret Realm, he now has a lot of secrets, and it is not suitable for him to marry a strange female cultivator from the Huang family and become his personal person at this time.

"The incident was too sudden. Wei was not too prepared. For the time being, he was unable to agree to the clan leader's request. Please give the clan leader some time to think about it." Wei Tu hesitated for a moment and said tactfully.

 Unless the Heshan Huang family can provide him with sufficient benefits at this moment. Otherwise, it would be impossible for him to board the Huang family's sinking ship.

It's just that he already has the opportunity to form a pill. Apart from this, it is obviously difficult for the Huang family to come up with a “treasure” that can impress him.

Of course, you can also promise not to send him to the front lines.

 But Wei Tu knew this was impossible.

 At a critical moment, there is not much difference between whether he is the Huang family's son-in-law or the Huang family's worshipper.

He knew clearly that the Huang family was trying to win over him at this moment, not to let him enjoy happiness, but to relieve him of his burden, so they promised him a marriage to prevent him from running away.

“Since the Talisman Guard Master is unwilling, then let's let this matter go.”

When the clan leader Huang Changshun heard this, the smile on his face suddenly faded away. He was no longer as enthusiastic as before and became a little cold.

What Wei Tu said just now was that he was thinking about it, but how could he not understand that it was just Wei Tu's excuse.

 Hence, he was too lazy to be polite to Wei Tu.

After all, in times of crisis, only your own family can be relied upon, and false politeness will not bring any improvement to the current situation of the Huang family.

“The Talisman Guards are here to serve my Huang family. Now the front line is in a critical situation. Our Huang family is still short of a batch of second-level talismans. I hope that within this period of time, the Talisman Guards can hurry up and rush them out.”

Huang Changshun ordered.

As he spoke, he took out a jade slip and handed it to Wei Tu.

 The content of the jade slip is exactly the list of large quantities of talismans that the Huang family needs this time.

When Wei Tu took the jade slip and looked at it, he suddenly felt a little unhappy, but he didn't show these emotions openly, he just hid them in his heart.

The number of these talismans is three hundred, but the Huang family has kept the price extremely low, only slightly higher than the cost price.

  It stands to reason.

 As the talisman master of the Huang family, he should help the Huang family draw talismans during the war, but this does not mean that he should work in vain for the Huang family.

 Cost price and low price are two different things!

Although the enshrinement and the master's family have a subordinate status, their relationship is more like a loose alliance - the master's family provides inheritance and spiritual land, while the craftsman's enshrinement is responsible for providing the produced spiritual objects, strengthening the master's strength, and making the master's family Rather than being "stuck" in a certain item, at the same time, through economic exchanges, the dependence of the subordinate families on the main family can be strengthened.

 There is mutual benefit between the two.

 After all, in terms of resource supply, the family's salary to the priests is not large, and it is not enough for daily needs. Most of the priests need to earn spiritual stones by their own crafts for cultivation.

  In other words.

 The Huang family in Heshan only gave him a platform to practice and sell his goods. Before selling the goods, he gave him some family inheritance.

 Cost price, this is why Huang Changshun is determined to leave the Huang family in Heshan, thinking of squeezing out the last bit of use value from him.

There is nothing wrong with doing this, but it is easy to get things done.

"No wonder Huang Caiyu dared to provoke Xia Qishi and me at the exchange meeting more than 20 years ago. Now it seems that it is inseparable from her father." Wei Tu thought to himself.

 In his opinion, what the Huang family in Heshan now lacks is fighting power, not property.

 Huang Xinglie, the ancestor of the Golden Pill, did a good job, avoiding the extraction of his pill-forming spiritual objects, and formed a good relationship with him.

 Huang Changshun is the opposite.

After he refused the marriage, he kept his face and said nothing. The harsh requirements of this jade slip alone were enough to make him feel separated and dissatisfied.

“After completing these three hundred talismans, we will leave the Huang family.” Wei Tu made the decision.

Three hundred talismans were his repayment of the kindness of the Huang family in Heshan for asking him to be a worshiper.

As soon as the kindness was repaid, he immediately left the Huang family in Heshan and found another way out.

Thinking of this, Wei Tu bowed his hands to the patriarch Huang Changshun and made his thoughts clear.

"Wei is foolish and lives on his salary from the Huang family without making any achievements. After completing the talismans in this jade slip, Wei is willing to resign and leave Yunhe Mountain, and he also asks the clan leader for permission."

 Helping and resigning.

Although it is not common in the Jindan family, it is not uncommon either. Usually it is the elderly monks who want to return to their roots and then resign.

There are very few young monks like Wei Tu.

The voice fell.

The atmosphere in the family affairs hall was suddenly silent, and you could hear a needle drop.

The Huang family monks present gathered their eyes together and fell on Wei Tu, and their eyes were full of hostility.

 After all, the Huang family was in crisis at this time. Wei Tu's resignation was not only disrespectful of morality, but also suspected of adding insult to injury.

 Weitu's reaction.

Clan leader Huang Changshun had already predicted this. From the moment Wei Tu refused to marry the daughter of the Huang family, he had anticipated this.

If Wei Tu wanted to stay in the Huang family, he would not have refused to marry the Huang family at this time and would not have married a daughter of the Huang family.

 Marriage is a certificate of trust he issued to Wei Tu.

"Yes!" Huang Changshun nodded. He agreed to Wei Tu's resignation and said: "As long as Master Wei completes the talisman of this jade slip, the Huang family of Heshan... is willing to send Fellow Taoist Wei a gift to leave Yunhe Mountain."

 “Thank you, Patriarch Huang.”

 Wei Tu's tone was a bit different.

 He is not afraid that the Huang family in Heshan will lie about this matter.

When he walked out of Yunze's secret realm, he took out the coffins of Huang Changkong and Huang Wenqing from the storage bag. For the Huang family, this was both a great achievement and a great kindness.

 He resigned and left the Huang family.

If the Huang family of Heshan wants to take revenge on him in this matter, they will block his way.

 In the world of Zheng Guo's immortality, the reputation of the Huang family in Heshan was ruined.

In addition, he is not a casual cultivator without any background, and he has a wide network of contacts.

 Zhenren Qin will form a golden elixir.

Kou Hongying is the golden elixir seed of Jingshui Pavilion.

 Sworn brother Fu Zhizhou is a worshiper of the Qiyue Zhao family...

These connections determined that the Huang family in Heshan would not make things difficult for him openly.

 Secretly, he didn't believe that the Huang family in Heshan could send Huang Xinglie, the ancestor of the Golden Pill, to kill him because of such a small grudge.

 After all, the Huang family in Heshan was already in a precarious situation at this time.

 It is not advisable to cause too many troubles.

(PS: Wei Fei's first foundation building failed, his energy and blood declined, and his potential has been exhausted. Even if the second foundation building is successful, there is no hope for a lifetime of golden elixir. It is still very different from Fu Zhizhou. Wei Fei's potential has been exhausted, This can be regarded as paying for the freedom I had in the Qi training realm.)
