I Am a Late Bloomer In the World of Immortality Chapter 195

Chapter 195 You and Qingluo will be strangers from now on (please subscribe)

Wei Tu did not deny Wei Xiuwen's choice.

There are many choices in a person's life, but it is easy to choose the path of "life", but it is difficult to choose the path of "death".

Smuggled to Kang State, this road has a brighter future than hiding in the Mei family and secretly guarding the Mei family.

Wei Tu has always been worried that Wei Xiuwen will become the next Li Xingye, abandoning his family and children for the sake of his future, causing the whole family to die.

—Today's Mei family is Wei Xiuwen's other family.

Now, Wei Tu no longer has this worry.

After getting the exact answer from Wei Xiuwen.

Wei Tu did not stay in Cuiping Valley for long. He took Tao Jie and his sister directly to Hanshan.

In the past, Wei Tu would not have had the courage to go directly to the "enemy's" lair without covering up. Moreover, this lair is also the clan territory of the Jindan forces.

But it's different now.

He is already a disciple of Jindan Zhenjun and an important member of the Sanxian Alliance.

Have quasi-Nascent Soul forces to rely on.

The Tao family of Hanshan should be afraid of him, rather than him being afraid of the Tao family of Hanshan.

Seven days later.

In the southern border of Zheng State, the Tao family of Hanshan.

After learning that his son and daughter had returned safely, Tao Shisheng, the elder of the Tao family, went out to welcome them and prepared a banquet to entertain Wei Tu, a second-level talisman master who was quite famous in the casual cultivator world.

During the conversation, Wei Tu casually mentioned his identity in the Sanxian Alliance.

I heard that Wei Tu is a disciple of Jindan.

The attitude of Tao Shisheng and his wife towards Wei Tu changed obviously, from the vague arrogance of the family monks to humility.

"This is the fine spiritual wine brewed by my mother. Please enjoy it, Senior Wei." Tao Ya came out of the boudoir, with a hint of blush on her cheeks. She was generous and carried the pot to fill Wei Tu with a glass of wine.

On the way, the two brothers and sisters, although they were afraid of Wei Tu and worried that Wei Tu would "seek money and murder", but after Wei Tu brought them back to Hanshan safely, their "dissatisfaction" also disappeared. The smoke disappeared.

Instead, it is gratitude to Wei Tu.

After all, Wei Tu was not an old friend of the Hanshan Tao family, so they were lucky that he could help them on the way.

“Thank you, Miss Tao.”

Wei Tu thanked him, covered his sleeves, raised his cup, and drank all the wine in the cup without tasting it himself.

Although the chance of the Hanshan Tao family poisoning him is very small, he cannot act carelessly because of this. It is always good to be prepared in advance.

In a word, be prepared.

No one of the Tao monks present could notice Wei Tu's small movements. After all, in terms of cultivation, Wei Tu was already among the top of the monks present.

After the wine has passed three rounds and the dishes have passed the five flavors.

Weitu's lips moved slightly, and he transmitted his voice to "Tao Shisheng" sitting on the seat, and started talking to him about business.

“When Wei was rescuing Mr. Ling and his wife, he had a conversation with Shang Ming. He learned from Shang Ming that the third brother of Tao Daoyou's wife was Nie Wenjing, the monk guarding Chishui Pass.”

“I wonder if this is the case?”

Wei Tu asked with a serious look on his face.

In his words, Wei Tu also saved face for the Tao Jie brothers and sisters, and blamed Shang Ming for the family secrets that the two told in order to save their lives.

“What do you mean by this, Fellow Daoist Wei?” Tao Shisheng was stunned for a moment when he heard this. However, he quickly calmed down and did not become confused because of this.

There is an old relationship with "Nie Wenjing". Although this matter is secret, it is not fatal to the Hanshan Tao family.

Furthermore, anyone with a discerning eye can see it. Wei Tu personally sent the Tao Jie brothers and sisters back to Hanshan, making it clear that he had good intentions towards the Tao family in Hanshan, rather than threatening them like Shang Ming and other robbery cultivators.

From this point on, there is no need for him to be nervous.

In addition, there are far more than one family in Zheng that has an old relationship with the monks guarding foreign countries, such as the Hanshan Tao family.

The smaller the circle, the more relatives and friends there are.

“Wei's children have reached the stage of foundation building at this time, but because the world of immortal cultivation in Zheng is currently in troubled times, Wei has not publicized this matter..."

Wei Tu intends to point out the way.

"What? A pair of sons and daughters of fellow Taoist Wei have already laid the foundation?" Tao Shisheng was greatly surprised when he heard this.

As far as he knows, Wei Tu's descendants are Wei Yan and Wei Xiuwen. But now, these two children have actually established a foundation?

Father and son built the foundation three times.

This is not only a good talk in the world of immortality, but also fully proves Wei Tu's "strength" in the foundation-building realm.

Ordinary foundation-building monks do not have the strength to cultivate two foundation-building offspring.

The Wei Yan siblings may have acceptable qualifications, but in the world of immortal cultivation, there are many people with better qualifications than the Wei Yan siblings, and most of these people failed at the foundation building stage and turned into bones.

Hence, Tao Shisheng could easily guess that the success of the Wei Yan siblings was inseparable from Wei Tu, their biological father.

“The State of Zheng is in troubled times. In the past few decades, countless forces have been destroyed...Wei once went to Jingguo. It is difficult to find another Jindan family in Jingguo back then.”

Weitu reiterated the old question and made it clearer.

When he learned from Tao Ya the reason for Shang Ming's pursuit, Wei Tu already understood that his interests were consistent with those of the Hanshan Tao family.

The difference lies in whether the Tao family of Hanshan would take him with them as an outsider when they fled the state of Zheng.

With this statement, Tao Shisheng understood Wei Tu's intention. There was a hint of thought in his eyes and he said: "Fellow Daoist Wei has saved my children's lives. Logically speaking, Tao should agree to Friend Wei's request..."

"Just...opening up the smuggling channel to Kang State. My third uncle "Nie Wenjing" alone is not enough. He is just a key part of it."

At this point, Tao Shisheng showed a look of helplessness on his face, as if this decision was very difficult for him.

In fact, if Wei Tu had not come from the Sanxian Alliance, when they heard that Wei Tu wanted to take a share of the smuggling channel, the Tao family in Hanshan would have killed someone to silence him. Not to mention letting Wei Tu get involved.

But unfortunately, Wei Tu now has a background.

So, Tao Shisheng's implication is that if Wei Tu wants to get involved in the smuggling channel to Kang State, he must pay a certain price and benefit for it.

This is the prerequisite for cooperation.

The Tao family in Hanshan is afraid of the Sanxian Alliance, but they are afraid of returning, and they are not yet humiliating themselves because of the Sanxian Alliance's sign.

“Wei is very wealthy and would like to help the Tao family.” Wei Tu expressed his stance without much hesitation.

　　Cherish your life when doing big things, forget your life for small things.

Neither is done by wise men.

It can take as short as twenty or thirty years, or as long as fifty or sixty years, before his cultivation can reach the peak of foundation building and prepare for the elixir formation. During this period, it is unknown what changes will take place in the current situation in Zheng.

When the end is near, think of a way out.

　　It's already too late.

Wealth that cannot be converted into strength is just floating wealth. Wei Tu has a very clear understanding of this.

“Tao admires Wei Tu for his quick words.” Seeing Wei Tu being so cheerful, Tao Shisheng showed a hint of admiration in his eyes.

When negotiating just now, he thought that Wei Tu was trying to defeat the Tao family in Hanshan, and he wanted to let the Tao family help him sneak across the country without any cost.

Unexpectedly, Wei Tu was not a beggar, but planned to cooperate with the Tao family of Hanshan to open up this smuggling channel to Kang State.

Just from this gesture.

Tao Shisheng felt that Wei Tu was a person.

… half a month later.

Weitu left Tao's house in Hanshan alone.

Comparing with when he came, when he left, Wei Tu was missing seven thousand spirit stones and some second-level talismans.

These few spiritual stones and talismans were Wei Tu's initial investment in the Hanshan Tao family's plan to open up smuggling channels in Kang State.

Seven thousand spiritual stones.

Sounds like a lot.

However, this is for an individual. For a large force, although seven thousand spirit stones are not worth mentioning, they are still very limited.

Hanshan Tao family agreed that Wei Tu would join.

First, it is to prevent the illegal immigration from being revealed.

Second, I also read a copy of Wei Tu's helping hand.

Three, the number of people smuggled in by Wei Tu and the Hanshan Tao family was not large, less than the number of a hand. With this number of smugglers, in exchange for Wei Tu's capital injection, the Hanshan Tao family would not suffer a loss.

After leaving the Tao family in Hanshan.

Wei Tu thought about it for a while. He first went to Baishi Hufang City and delivered a letter to Kou Hongying. Then he went straight to Qiyue Zhao's house to meet Fu Zhizhou and Wei Fei.

Ten years ago, on his way to "Cicada Cliff", Wei Tu visited Qiyue Zhao's house.

However, it is a pity that Fu Zhizhou, like Wei Tu, was also issued a "recruitment order" by the Immortal Sect and went to the "Green Water Bay" on the front line of the battlefield to garrison.

Time flies, time flies.

In the blink of an eye, ten years have passed.

Fu Zhizhou was also lucky enough to survive and return from the "Green Water Bay", escaping the disaster and becoming a free man.

Of course, Fu Zhizhou's luck is inseparable from the short length of his tenure. Fu Zhizhou's garrison time was only five years, half of Wei Tu's garrison time.

Half a month later.

The Zhao family in Qiyue, Qiyue Mountain.

Wei Tu stood at the entrance of Qiyue Mountain and sent several talisman letters to Zhao Qingluo, but he waited for a long time and did not see him. Zhao Qingluo went out to greet him.

"Fellow Taoist Wei, Qingluo is currently practicing in seclusion. If anything happens, just contact Zhao directly..." Zhao Tinghai flew out from Qiyue Mountain, bowed to Wei Tu, and said.

“Clan Chief Zhao.” When Wei Tu saw Zhao Tinghai, he quickly returned the salute.

Wei Tu noticed that Zhao Tinghai's hand held several talismans that he had just sent out.

“Wei is looking for Princess Qingluo just to catch up on old times.”

Weitu prevaricates casually.

This time he came to Qiyue Zhao's house. In addition to wanting to see Fu Zhizhou and Wei Fei, he also wanted to return the "little moving talisman" that Zhao Qingluo gave him to Zhao Qingluo.

After all, the small moving talisman is too valuable.

He now has the small teleportation talisman given by Che Zhenjun, and it would not be appropriate to hold the small teleportation talisman from Zhao Qingluo.

—This little moving talisman is also Zhao Qingluo's life-saving thing. If anything happens to Zhao Qingluo because of him taking away the little moving talisman, he will regret it extremely.

However, in front of Zhao Qingluo's biological father, he couldn't say that he still had the life-saving thing in his hand that the Zhao family gave to Zhao Qingluo, the genius.

“There is no need to reminisce about the past.”

Zhao Tinghai stood in the clouds. He glanced at Wei Tu condescendingly and said in an indifferent tone: "Ten years ago, after you left, Qingluo closed her eyes and started condensing elixirs. Two years ago, her vision of condensing elixirs appeared. , and soon she will be the True Monarch of the Golden Core."

“From now on, you two are just strangers.”

More than thirty years ago, before the Yunze Secret Realm was opened, he had the idea of bringing Wei Tu and Zhao Qingluo together. With the marriage, he won over Wei Tu, a talented talisman master, to join the Qiyue Zhao family.

More than ten years ago, when Wei Tu left the Zhao family in Qiyue, he asked Zhao Qingluo to give Wei Tu a ride. In addition to letting Zhao Qingluo settle her knot and calmly pass the "divine consciousness barrier", he also helped to win over Wei Tu again. and Zhao Qingluo's thoughts.

But now, times have changed.

Not long after, Zhao Qingluo will be the ancestor of their Qiyue Zhao family's Golden Elixir, while Wei Tu is currently only in the middle stage of foundation building, and is far away from the Golden Elixir realm.

In one lifetime, one may not be able to achieve the golden elixir.

The status difference is too big.

It is no longer possible for him to acquiesce to Wei Tu and Zhao Qingluo.

Because, as the patriarch, he knew that if Zhao Qingluo, the ancestor of Jindan, had an "intimate affair", it would be a huge disaster for the Zhao family.

“Stranger?” Wei Tu was startled when he heard this.

He did not expect that one day he would be treated like the protagonist in the novel.

However, unlike in the novel, Wei Tu did not feel resentful at this time, but only had a sense of the impermanence of the world, and some...relief in his heart.

After all, he had no feelings for Zhao Qingluo, all he had was... just some guilt.

At that time, he rejected Zhao Qingluo's kindness in the stone palace. Now, it is reasonable for the Zhao family to "reject" him again.

"Princess Qingluo... she actually started condensing elixirs ten years ago?" At this time, Wei Tu realized the situation and said slightly surprised.

Ten years ago, although Zhao Qingluo's cultivation had reached the peak of foundation building, he thought that Zhao Qingluo would spend several more years to stabilize her realm before forming pills.

Unexpectedly, Zhao Qingluo went into seclusion to form elixirs directly after he left.

Fortunately, although Zhao Qingluo formed the elixir in a little haste, the result is good. She has already achieved the vision of forming the elixir, and she will be able to break through the realm of the golden elixir in a short time.

Zhao Tinghai on the side saw the worried look on Wei Tu's face, and his mood couldn't help but feel a little better. He even felt a little ashamed in his heart. After all, he had not asked Zhao Qingluo in advance to drive Wei Tu away. These words were only his. Selfishness at work.

"If one day... Wei Daoyou succeeds in condensing the elixir, this matter..." Zhao Tinghai considered his words and said tactfully.

However, halfway through the words, Zhao Tinghai laughed at himself and stopped mentioning it again.

For casual practitioners, forming an elixir is as difficult as ascending to the sky.

He is equivalent to setting an almost impossible goal for Wei Tu.

Let's take a step back 10,000 steps.

Even if Wei Tu succeeded in condensing the elixir and reached the realm of golden elixir, would Wei Tu at that time... still be the same as Wei Tu today?

Jie Dan is a huge watershed.

The difference in status is far greater than Qi training and foundation building.

Wei Tu doesn't have much affection for Zhao Qingluo to begin with. How can he "humiliate himself" and try to mend the relationship with his Zhao family again after he has formed an elixir?

　This matter is impossible even if you think about it.

Wei Tu didn't know what Zhao Tinghai was thinking.

He does not think that Zhao Tinghai's decision to let him be a "stranger" in Zhao Qingluo's life is too much.

He is also a man with a daughter.

If Fu Lin abandons Fairy Leng in the future and then reunites with Wei Yan, he, as a father, will find it unbearable.

Comparing his feelings with his own, he didn't think Zhao Tinghai was too much.

Zhao Tinghai is just using his own methods to protect his daughter Zhao Qingluo.
