See this scene.

Yan Zezhi narrowed his eyes slightly.

He didn't think much about Wei Tu's move. He just felt that Wei Tu deliberately selected three second-level spiritual lands that did not belong to the Yan family to reject the Yan family's good intentions.

"Perhaps I pushed him too hard." Yan Zezhi thought to himself, feeling that he was too enthusiastic just now, and was suspected of being a "flattery for nothing, a traitor or a thief."

“Fellow Daoist Cui, these three spiritual lands are not owned by the Yan family. They already have owners, so it's not easy to deal with them.”

Yan Zezhi reminded.

In a word, he can still make the decision to let Wei Tu temporarily stay in the sacred land of the Yan family, but he does not have the ability to do so in the spiritual lands of other families of Lou Gaozong.

“Elder Yan doesn't have to worry about this. Cui has little financial resources and may not be able to rent a third-level spiritual land, but it is easy to rent a second-level spiritual land.”

Hearing this, Wei Tu smiled slightly.

Hearing Wei Tu's words, Yan Zezhi, who still wanted to persuade him, had no reason to persuade him at this moment. He shrugged his throat and swallowed the words in his mouth.

 When Wei Tu joined the Lou Gao Sect, he allocated a cave for free to Wei Tu, the guest elder, on behalf of the sect, so he had room to intervene.

Now, Wei Tu has offered to rent the cave and is willing to bear the rent himself.

 It would be inappropriate for him to try to persuade others with a shy face.

"But it's not a big deal if you don't live in Yanjiadongfu. If you want to seize the inheritance of Cui, there is more than one way..." Yan Zezhi narrowed his eyes and started from his heart.

—Moving into the Yanjiadongfu means that Wei Tu becomes half of the Yan family. Once Wei Tu's life is over, the Yan family will have legitimate reasons to take care of Wei Tu's inheritance.

Of course, on the surface, Yan Zezhi did not reveal his ambitions. He smiled and complimented Wei Tu a few times, and guaranteed that he would become a lobbyist and help Wei Tu successfully rent any of the three spiritual lands.

The three second-level spiritual lands that Wei Tu is interested in are named Xiaohan Mountain, Luoxia Stream and Chitapo respectively.

After letting Wei Tu temporarily move into the Yingbin Hall of Lou Gaozong, Yan Zezhi immediately arranged for his nephew Yan Zhenping to negotiate with the owners of the three spiritual lands to purchase or sell the ownership rights of the spiritual lands in his name.

 Pick the persimmons when they are soft.

Yan Zhenping is eyeing Xiaohanshan.

 Different from Xiaohan Mountain, Luoxia Stream and Chitapo, the two second-level spiritual lands, belong to the Li family and the Song family respectively, which have equal status to the Yan family.

Although these two families are not mortal enemies of the Yan family in Lou Gaozong, the three parties also have a certain relationship by marriage. But Yan Zezhi's uncle and nephew...were worried that the Li family and the Song family wanted to get a share of Wei Tu's inheritance, so they deliberately avoided the Song and Li families when arranging the matter.

The Xiaohan Mountain is different. Although it is a spiritual land leased by the Sun Shooting Department thousands of years ago, on the surface, the power in charge of the Xiaohan Mountain is only a small foundation-building family named "Bian".

With the prestige of the Yan family, it is not difficult for a small family to give up the title deed to Xiaohan Mountain and get out as soon as possible.

Yan Zhenping acted vigorously and resolutely. He flew to Xiaohan Mountain in the afternoon of that day and informed the head of the Bian family to abandon the clan land and move away immediately within seven days.

“According to the spiritual contract of that year, our building, Gaozong, has the right to unilaterally terminate the lease.”

"However, Lou Gaozong is not unreasonable. This is five thousand spiritual stones, which is enough to compensate the Bian family for their losses."

After saying this, Yan Zhenping's face turned cold. He did not listen to the plea of ​​the head of the Bian family. After placing a spirit stone bag on the family affairs hall, he flicked his sleeves and robes and left directly.

 This move completely alarmed the Jindan Zhenjun of the Shooting Sun Department who was hidden in Xiaohan Mountain.

“Xiaohan Mountain is remote and the spiritual things it produces are poor. Thousands of years have passed and Lou Gaozong has not taken back this spiritual land. Why is it suddenly anxious to take back the land deed and no longer perform the lease?”

“The Yan family is so anxious. Could it be that they have discovered the ice soul liquid underground?”

"Impossible! The name of the Bian family is the Bian family, but it is actually our Yuwen royal family, so it is impossible to leak the secret. Besides, among the Bian family monks, except for the clan leader Bian Sheng, no one knows that there is a cave under the Xiaohan Mountain..."

　　The three True Lords of the Shooting Sun Division all had expressions of confusion on their faces and communicated with each other with their spiritual consciousness.

 After all, Xiaohan Mountain is not a feng shui treasure on the surface, so there is no reason for it to be remembered.

"Let Bian Sheng go to Lou Gaozong to find out something first. If the secret is really leaked, you and I will discuss it later."

 Finally, a burly man with a golden crow tattoo on his face glanced at the two true kings of the same race sitting across from each other and made a preliminary decision.

Xiaohan Mountain is located in Caozhou of the Xiao State, not the territory of the Sheri Department of the Kang State. He did not want to use force and occupy this place by force until the last moment.

 He prefers to follow the official process.

 Two days later, the head of the Bian family named Bian Sheng came to report and explained the reason why the Yan family "forcibly occupied" Xiaohan Mountain.

With the thousand-year layout, the Archery Department naturally placed some spies in the Lougao Sect to ensure that there would be no unexpected changes in the treasured land of Xiaohan Mountain.

The fact that Wei Tu became the guest elder of Lou Gaozong was not a top secret within Lou Gaozong.

“The old man Jin Dan, who is about to live for a long time, wants to rent Xiaohan Mountain as a temporary cave…”

Hearing this reason, the three true monarchs of the Sheri Department all breathed a sigh of relief.

This kind of business behavior under normal order appeared from time to time during the millennium when the Sheri Department occupied Xiaohan Mountain.

 It's just because the traders are not at a high level and are all in the foundation-building level. They can be resolved one by one with just the Bian family's intervention, so until now, there has been no disturbance.

Wei Tu, who wanted to rent Xiaohan Mountain, was no different from the previous traders. However, because his realm was the Golden Elixir and he persuaded the Yan family to intervene, this made the matter a little more complicated.

“Master Dun'er, what should we do now?”

Bian Sheng bowed and asked the burly man with a golden crow tattoo who was sitting cross-legged on the underground altar.

The Bian family is just a foundation-building family and is not yet able to refuse the Yan family's request.

 "I am dying of old age..." Archmage Dun'er pondered for a while.

With the strength of the three of them, it is not difficult to destroy the Yan family of Lou Gaozong or kill "Wei Tu".

 But in this case, Xiaohan Mountain will inevitably arouse the suspicion of the Xiao Kingdom. It is only a matter of time before the ice soul liquid is exposed.

However, if you want to occupy Xiaohan Mountain reasonably and legally now, relying solely on the apparent strength of the Bian family is undoubtedly a fantasy and is almost impossible to achieve.

“The ice spiritual liquid is located under the Xiaohan Mountain. Except for monks with spiritual pupil magic, who can find some clues, it is difficult for other monks to notice it.”

 “The person named Cui doesn't live long...”

"In this case... Bian Sheng, you promise the Yan family to give up Xiaohan Mountain, and we will seal the ice soul fluid and redeem it after Cui's life is over."

Master Dun'er thought for a moment and made what he thought was the most appropriate decision.

  After all, the icy soul liquid under Xiaohan Mountain has existed for thousands of years.

 During this period, none of the ancestors of Lou Gaozong discovered it. How could a golden elixir master who was about to expire have the means to discover the anomalies in Xiaohan Mountain?

Hearing this, a fellow Jindan next to Master Dun'er seemed to have thought of some questions. He opened his mouth and wanted to speak out, but when the words reached his throat, he swallowed them hard.

If you want to keep the interests of Xiaohan Mountain, Master Dunba's practice is not suitable, but if you add a little addition, there will be a more perfect solution.

That is, while sealing the "Ice Soul Liquid" underground, the three of them left one or two people behind to stay near the "Ice Soul Liquid"...

In this way, even if the "Wei Tu" finds any clues, they can remedy them in time.

 It's just that without the nourishment of spiritual energy, staying here for decades would undoubtedly be torture and a waste of life.

—There are a lot of spiritual energy in Lingdi. Once you steal the spiritual energy underground, you will not only be easily discovered by others, but also your whereabouts will be exposed.

 Decades of time, neither long nor short, are not worth wasting your life on this "little thing".

the other side.

Wei Tu was waiting for the good news at Gao Zongjing.

This time, the reason why he chose Yan Zezhi's uncle and nephew as his introducer to Lou Gaozong was because of their selfishness.

 Legacy after death, Jade Flame Pill…

These two are bargaining chips for him to attract his uncles and nephews from the Yan family to help him with things, so he doesn't have to worry about them not trying their best.

And the special nature of Xiaohan Mountain was learned after he searched the soul of Yu Wencheng.

Therefore, as long as his means of seizing Xiaohan Mountain are normal and reasonable, he will not arouse suspicion.

 Seven days passed by in a flash.

 The day has come for Yan Zhenping to issue an ultimatum to the Bian family in Xiaohanshan.

“Fortunately, the Bian family has moved away from Xiaohan Mountain and given up this geomantic treasure.”

Yan Zezhi's uncle and nephew came with gifts to congratulate Wei Tu on his move to a new house.

Wei Tu noticed that beside Yan Zhenping, there was also an elegant young female nun wearing a red palace dress.

 The state is in the early stage of foundation building.

"Who is this?" Wei Tu had a slight guess, and he followed the thoughts of Yan Zezhi's uncle and nephew and asked.

“Returning to Senior Cui, this is the junior's daughter. Her name is Yan Xiaolan. She has a kind personality and knows how to take care of the monks best.”

Yan Zhenping stroked his beard and said with a smile. The words fell.

Yan Xiaolan picked up her palace skirt, stepped forward, bowed to Wei Tu and said, "I have met Elder Cui."

While giving the gift, Yan Xiaolan looked at the middle-aged monk with sallow skin and average face in front of her. Although she felt repulsion and disgust in her heart, thinking of Wei Tu's legacy after his death, a friendly smile immediately appeared on her face.

“Fellow Taoist Cui came to our sect for the first time, and he didn't bring any family members or confidants, and the cave in Xiaohan Mountain is quite large... I am a grand nephew who is good at taking care of internal affairs. If Taoist Cui doesn't dislike it, I can drive him..."

Yan Zezhi had been staring at Wei Tu's expression from the corner of his eye. When he saw the look of surprise in Wei Tu's eyes when he saw Yan Xiaolan, he immediately knew it and said with a smile.

 After all, Yan Xiaolan is the most outstanding-looking female cultivator in their family.

"This matter..." Wei Tu looked hesitant, as if he was considering whether to agree to this matter.

"Forget it! The Yan family helped Mr. Cui come here, took advantage of the favor, and took over the spiritual land of Xiaohan Mountain... Mr. Cui had no choice but to agree to Elder Yan's invitation."

Wei Tu pondered for a moment, and when he said this, he seemed to be taking advantage of him and acting like a good boy.

 Seeing this, Yan Xiaolan felt contempt, thinking that Wei Tu was obviously **** after women, but he said one thing and did another.

However, even though she thought so in her heart, Yan Xiaolan walked up behind Wei Tu without any hindrance, and gently held Wei Tu's slightly skinny waxy palm with her jade hand.

Seeing this scene, Yan Zhenping couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly, with a slightly embarrassed look on his face. After all, the female cultivator in front of him was his daughter.

 Now, he is forced to serve Wei Tu, an old golden elixir, for the sake of his inheritance after his death... He can't help but feel a little humiliated.

"Forget it! If a person named Cui is addicted to women, his body will not last long and he will die sooner." A glimmer of light flashed in Yan Zhenping's eyes, thinking of his own wishful thinking.

　Today, sacrifice your daughter.

Tomorrow, he will be able to legitimately inherit Wei Tu's inheritance in the name of his daughter's concubine.

　No one can find fault.

 Half a day later.

Accompanied by Yan Zezhi's uncle and nephew, Wei Tu and Yan Xiaolan moved into Xiaohan Mountain together.

 In the name of Yan Xiaolan.

Taking the opportunity, Yan Zezhi's uncle and nephew stuffed some Yan family slaves into Xiaohan Mountain to serve Wei Tu.

Of course, the greater role of these Yan family servants is to act as traitors, keeping an eye on Wei Tu's every move to prevent the rich man from escaping.

 Xiaohanshan Cave Mansion, in the bedroom. Yan Xiaolan sat on the warm bed with a shy face, waiting for the arrival of Wei Tu, the old golden elixir, so that she could fulfill her role as a concubine.

Unexpectedly, when Wei Tu entered the room, he looked different from his previous lecherous appearance. He frowned slightly, looked at Yan Xiaolan for a few times, then left the bedroom with a flick of his sleeves and went to the alchemy room on the side.

 He only left a cold word.

“Cui understands the thoughts of the Yan family. If it is really difficult to return to Kang State in this life, Cui's legacy will be left to the Yan family.”

Hearing this, Yan Xiaolan suddenly turned pale and sat on the warm bed, at a loss.

 The Yan family sent her to Xiaohan Mountain for the purpose of becoming husband and wife with Wei Tu. After Wei Tu's death, she could use her own identity to embezzle Wei Tu's inheritance.

Now, Wei Tu is not lucky enough for her...

 This means that her mission failed from the beginning.

“Sure enough, this old man is not stupid and knows that the Yan family is trying to seize his inheritance.”

Yan Xiaolan cursed secretly.

However, no matter how much she scolded Wei Tu, Yan Xiaolan could not change her current situation. She was pacing back and forth in the bedroom, anxious.

 Her relationship with Wei Tu has not progressed. Even if the monks of the Yan family listen to her explanation, what will happen next?

Obviously, the Yan family would not blame Wei Tu, the old Jin Dan, for being one thing on the outside but another behind the scenes. They would only blame her for not serving Wei Tu well and not doing her best, which is why Wei Tu did not sleep with her...

 One sentence.

 Her status is too low!

　　Whether in front of Wei Tu or in front of the family, she is the passive party.

"Elixir?" At this moment, Yan Xiaolan suddenly smelled the fragrance of elixir coming from outside the door, which was refreshing.

 Under the fragrance of red pills, her state of mind was also slightly relaxed.

“I'm very lucky today, the elixir is made into four pills. I'll give this chalcedony pill to you as a gift.”

 Suddenly, Wei Tu's voice came to Yan Xiaolan's ears. She looked up and saw a green mana carrying a jade pill rushing towards her.

 The next moment, the Jade Pill fell steadily into Yan Xiaolan's palm.

"Thank you, Senior Cui." Yan Xiaolan was overjoyed when he saw this pill, and he bowed and thanked him.

Chalcedony Pill is a second-level low-grade elixir, one pill is worth seven hundred spirit stones. With her status, if she wanted to obtain such elixirs in her family, it would take at least ten years of contribution points.

 But today, she just met Wei Tu, and Wei Tu casually gave her this gift.

 The difference was so big that Yan Xiaolan was in a trance.

 At this time, Yan Xiaolan couldn't help but have another idea in her heart: to seek refuge in Wei Tu and obtain greater benefits.

 Next door, in the alchemy room.

When Wei Tu saw Yan Xiaolan's expression, a faint smile appeared on his face, as well as some sarcasm.

"Fellow Daoist Wei's judgment is really accurate. Yan Xiaolan's mind has really changed after she received a small favor from you..." Bai Zhi smiled slightly and chatted with Wei Tu casually.

"Whether she really changes or not depends on how she behaves in the future. The Yan family is not my enemy. Otherwise, it is feasible to use colorful phantom moths to hypnotize you, or to use your "demon parasitism technique", and it is even more feasible. More convenient…”

Wei Tu shook his head and said.

Let Yan Xiaolan enter Xiaohan Mountain, but he did it deliberately to dispel the suspicion of the Yan family, Master Dun'er and others.

 After all, it is better to clear things up than to block them.

 It's just that Yan Xiaolan becoming his concubine is a troublesome thing after all.

 At other times, he wouldn't mind practicing double cultivation with a beautiful woman. For example, Qi Feng back then.

It's just that now that he has lost his essence and blood, if he continues to practice dual cultivation... he will not be able to recover until he recovers his physical cultivation.

In addition, he is only using a false identity at the moment, and it is also inappropriate to use this false identity to take concubines.

the last point.

Yan Xiaolan and Qi Feng are different after all. Yan Xiaolan came here to covet his inheritance after his death, while Qi Feng wanted to use his strength to protect her so that she could practice with peace of mind.

 It is not a good thing for him to accept a female cultivator like Yan Xiaolan who has ulterior motives as a concubine.

“Yan Xiaolan, a woman who is willing to become your concubine for profit, can naturally betray the family for profit.”

Bai Zhi is well versed in human nature and spoke.

“Okay, Fellow Daoist Bai, let's not mention the matter of Yan Xiaolan. We came to Xiaohan Mountain not for a concubine, but for the ice soul liquid underground.”

Wei Tu waved his hand and immediately interrupted Bai Zhi, indicating that it was time to get down to business.

 “Yes, Fellow Daoist Wei.”

Bai Zhi was not annoyed, she rolled her eyes secretly, asked for Wei Tu's Taimiao Mirror, then turned into a black ghost aura and went to explore the underground of the cave.

 It took about half a day to wait.

The ghostly aura transformed from Bai Zhi emerged from the gaps in the alchemy room floor in wisps.

"The underground of Xiaohan Mountain has been sealed by the great mages from the Sheri Department. However, the good news is that there are no monks stationed underground." After Bai Zhi's ghost body regrouped, he informed Wei Tu one by one.

“It's just that this time is different from Silver Moon Pond. The underground formation in Xiaohan Mountain is too profound. It will take at least a month and a half before I can open it.”

Bai Zhi added.

 “Half a month?” Wei Tu was secretly surprised.

You must know that Bai Zhi is a third-level high-grade formation mage, and she has the most forbidden treasure of Tai Miao Bao Mirror in her hand. Basically, the third level formation can be broken almost overnight.

“The Sheri Department is worthy of being a Nascent Soul force.”

 Wei Tu Xin Dao.

He estimated that the sealing formations under Xiaohan Mountain were most likely laid out by Master Jinxia himself. Otherwise, the Archmage Dun'er alone would not have the ability to deploy such a profound formation.

However, this also explains why Archmage Dun'er and others were so confident that after retreating, no one was left to guard the "Ice Soul Liquid" under Xiaohan Mountain.
