Zhou Luan took the wine jar with satisfaction and smiled: "You know your place. If there's anything you don't understand, feel free to come to my room and ask me. I will answer with all my heart."
Although Wang Daoyuan did not want to go over even if he was beaten to death, he still said that he would do it.
Now that he was being suppressed by Zhou Luan, he had no choice but to lower his head.
Zhou Luan carried the wine jar and arrogantly returned to the backyard.
Wang Daoyuan continued to inject wood attribute spirit energy into the flame. His fire attribute spirit energy had the characteristics of the Scarlet Sun True Fire.
If he used fire attribute spirit energy, the rootless flame would quickly be assimilated.
Among the five elements, wood gave birth to fire. Using wood attribute spirit energy could also maintain the fire attribute spirit energy. Although it would not burn too vigorously, it would not change the characteristics of the rootless flame.
He used his divine sense to probe the flame and carefully felt the fire laws.
His own Scarlet Sun True Fire was a third level upper grade spirit fire. The fire laws were not obvious, and the difficulty of comprehending them was higher.
This flame was condensed from Zhou Luan's small divine ability. It was considered a fourth level lower grade rootless flame. The fire laws were more obvious, and the effect of comprehending them was better.
He compared the rootless flame with the Scarlet Sun True Fire. In just half a year, he had a preliminary feeling of the fire laws.
Fire was the most destructive and violent attribute among the five elements.
Fire elemental spells all followed the same principle, which emphasized the instantaneous eruption of a huge amount of power.
Of course, this was only the simplest comprehension. Core Formation only required these simple comprehensions.
Starting from the Jindan stage, the path of cultivation could not be separated from the comprehension of the laws.
As one's cultivation increased, the requirement for comprehension would also be higher.
The Jindan stage only had comprehension of the laws, and used it as a basis to modify techniques.
At a higher level, one had to directly use the power of the laws.
Everything was difficult at the beginning. After comprehending the fire laws, it would be much easier to comprehend other laws.
He wanted to continue comprehending, but Jiang Jingming sent him a message saying that there was an important matter that he needed him to do personally.
He could not reject it. After all, he had the position of Guiyan City Square's guardian.
Before Core Formation, he still had to be a monk ringing the bell.
If he were to neglect his duties, he would definitely be punished.
After bidding farewell to Zhou Luan, he left the underground branch, took a big detour, and returned to the Underworld Sect's station.
After entering the encampment, Jiang Jingming immediately took out a beast skin book and said, "Steward Wang, this is the account book of all the matters I've dealt with over the years. Please take a look."
Wang Daoyuan took the account book and flipped through it briefly. He then checked the treasury and found no problems.
He nodded and said, "Elder Jiang is indeed a capable person. These few years, when handling the branch's affairs, there were no oversights.
Is there anything important that requires me to deal with personally? "
Jiang Jingming replied, "Have you heard of the major event that happened to the south of the Arctic Icy Plains?"
Wang Daoyuan was naturally well aware of this, but he would never admit it verbally. With a puzzled expression, he asked, "What happened to the south of the Arctic Icy Plains?
I've been cultivating in Huiyan Mountain all this time, so I didn't care about anything else. "
Jiang Jingming continued, "About half a year ago, the Snow Dragon Volcano twenty thousand miles to the south of the Arctic Icy Plains erupted, and caused a violent earthquake.
All the demons within ten thousand miles were affected, and a large beast tide was triggered.
These few years, the demons and half-demons were at odds with each other, and the beast tide destroyed many half-demon tribes.
This made the situation even more tense. At first, they were fighting in secret, but now they've started to act.
Furthermore, the Jindan half-demons and fourth-rank demons are more restrained, so there hasn't been an all-out conflict yet.
However, if this continues, an all-out war is unavoidable.
Now, both sides want to rope in the Underworld Sect. This time, they want to meet with you and ask about your attitude.
The time is three days later, and the location is at the Huiyan Pavilion in the center of the market. "
Wang Daoyuan nodded and didn't say anything, but his heart wasn't calm.
The situation he was most worried about had happened. Once the two sides clashed, he would be cannon fodder.
Three days later, Wang Daoyuan brought Jiang Jingming and a foreign Zifu elder to the Huiyan Pavilion in the center of the market.
The location of the meeting was on the third floor of the Huiyan Pavilion.
Wang Daoyuan led the two Violet Mansion Elders to the third floor and entered the main hall.
A silver-haired Violet Palace Realm half-demon sat on the main seat with two early-stage Violet Palace Realm half-demons beside him.
On the right was a peak Violet Palace Realm half-demon with black hair and red eyes. There were also two early-stage Violet Palace Realm half-demons beside him.
The Huiyan Pavilion was the property of the Silver Fox Tribe, so the one sitting on the main seat should be someone from the Silver Fox Tribe.
Wang Daoyuan brought the two to the left and sat down.
Then, he cupped his hands and said, "May I know why the two of you have invited me here?"
The silver-haired half-demon smiled, "I'm the Silver Fox Tribe's Grand Elder, Hu You. I'm the representative of the half-demons."
He then pointed at the red-eyed half-demon and said, "This is Daoyou, Cangyun. He's the representative of the demon race."
For a Violet Palace Realm meeting like this, the demon race would send their subordinate half-demons.
After all, third-rank demons couldn't take human form and couldn't speak the human language, so they couldn't discuss matters.
As for fourth-rank demons, their status wasn't on the same level.
Therefore, they sent their subordinate half-demons.
Wang Daoyuan cupped his hands and said, "I'm Wang Daoyuan, the guardian of the Huiyan Pavilion. Greetings, Daoyou.
Fellow Daoists, what do you want to discuss with me? Let's get straight to the point. "
Hu You smiled, "Daoyou is indeed a straightforward person, so I'll be direct.
The eruption of the Snow Dragon Volcano caused the demon beasts to flee and we half-demons suffered heavy losses.
Since the demon race attacked first, we naturally can't just sit and wait for our deaths.
Now that the conflict between the demon race and half-demons is inevitable, I wonder what the Underworld Sect's stance is? "
Wang Daoyuan chuckled, "What does the matter between you half-demons and the demon race have to do with my Underworld Sect?
My Underworld Sect only has a few shops in the southern part of the Huiyan Pavilion.
Apart from that, we don't have any other property.
We're just doing business here.
If the two of you want to fight, why should we take sides? "
Cangyun finally spoke, "It's said that the eruption of the Snow Dragon Volcano was caused by a human undergoing the Golden Core Heavenly Tribulation there.
Since the culprit is the human race, don't think you can get away with it. "
Wang Daoyuan mocked him, "Cangyun, what does Daoyou think my Underworld Sect is? The highest commander of the human race?
My Underworld Sect only occupies one-third of Zhao, which is just a drop in the ocean compared to the entire Beiyuan Xiuxian. How can we have the power to control all the human race's affairs?
You also admitted that the human race caused the eruption of the Snow Dragon Volcano, but that's just hearsay. There's no real evidence.
Daoyou wants to force my Underworld Sect to take sides with such baseless words. Isn't that too overbearing? "
Hu You also asked, "Daoyou means that the Underworld Sect doesn't care about the conflict between the half-demons and the demon race?"
Wang Daoyuan replied, "My Underworld Sect's attitude towards the north of the mountain has always been to do business and not get involved in the affairs of the north.
Naturally, we don't want the two of you to fall out, which will affect our business.
If you insist on fighting, we won't get involved. We'll just switch to another person to do business with. "
Cangyun didn't give up and asked aggressively, "This eruption was caused by the human race. The demon race also suffered heavy losses.
Daoyou wants to get away with it? You underestimate us too much. "
Wang Daoyuan also gave tit for tat, "The matter of the rogue cultivators has nothing to do with my Underworld Sect.
However, the Snow God Palace in the northwest is one of the four top forces of the human race and can represent all the human race.
If you have any opinions, you can go to the Snow God Palace and ask for an explanation. "
Cangyun had nothing to say. They didn't dare to provoke the Snow God Palace.
After all, those people were good at suppressing aquatic demons.
If the demon race dared to go there, they would be killed.
Seeing that Wang Daoyuan didn't want to get involved, Hu You was a little disappointed, "I wonder if the Underworld Sect can continue to do business with us half-demons?"
