The sky was as blue as a porcelain plate, and the white clouds were like silk.
Although the battle in Wu City had caused Qing Hu Island to become the topic of gossip among the residents of the Land of the Nine Prefectures, the internal affairs of Qing Hu Island were still the same as before. Because of this ridicule, many disciples of Qing Hu Island worked even harder.
They were one with Qing Hu Island! If Qing Hu Island was humiliated, they would be humiliated!
Qing Hu Island was respected, and all the disciples would be proud when they went out. The teachers were strict, and the disciples cultivated hard … Qing Hu Island was unprecedentedly united! At the same time, they hated Teng Qingshan to the core.
Qing Hu Island, Dragon Bolt Pavilion!
"Island Lord!" Gu Yong came to the Dragon Bolt Pavilion and looked at the golden-haired man who was meditating cross-legged. That man was the current Island Lord of Qing Hu Island, Tie Pan!
Tie Pan smiled and said, "Senior Martial Brother is here. Please sit."
"Island Lord, it has been half a month since the battle in Wu City. Do you have any news about Teng Qingshan? "Gu Yong stared at Tie Pan.
Tie Pan frowned and looked at Gu Yong before saying, "Ever since the battle in Wu City, Teng Qingshan escaped. Although there have been many news about Teng Qingshan, none of it is true! Until now, no one knows where Teng Qingshan is hiding! "
"Is he still pretending to be a merchant, or is he hiding in a mountain corner? No one knows! "
"With his disguising ability, it is extremely difficult to find him again. It is as difficult as ascending to heaven! Last time, it was because a godly thief found the Godly Axe and Reincarnation Spear! Only then did he find Teng Qingshan. Teng Qingshan must have learned from his mistakes. He will not make the same mistake again! "
Gu Yong's face darkened. He said in a deep voice, "Island Lord, does Qing Hu Island allow Teng Qingshan to be free and unfettered?"
Tie Pan's face darkened, and he shouted coldly, "Senior Martial Brother!"
Gu Yong froze. This Junior Martial Brother Tie Pan was usually very respectful to him. Although Gu Yong was no longer the Island Lord, he had been … for many years. Subconsciously, he still thought that his status was high!
"Junior Martial Brother, what do you want to say?" Gu Yong frowned.
Tie Pan was a little angry as he glared at him. Like an angry lion, he said, "Senior Brother, you are the most talented in our generation! I reached the Golden Dan Innate Realm a few years later than you. His strength is much weaker than yours! Even now, you still care about that Teng Qingshan? That's just a small matter! "
"So what if the people of the world think so? That was the extent of it! Who in this world dares to look down on Qing Hu Island? "
"This time, when Elder Zhao went to Yuzhou, didn't Emperor Yu's Hall receive him seriously? Why? It's because we have Grandmaster! "
"As for Grandmaster, there are only a few decades left before he reaches his 500-year-old limit! Senior Martial Brother, aren't you worried? "Tie Pan's eyes reddened." Once Martial Ancestor reaches the end of his lifespan, he will return to heaven! Qing Hu Island doesn't have any Emptiness Realm Experts. So what? A thousand-year foundation, destroyed in a day? "
"Teng Qingshan, it's just a small matter, an insignificant small matter! An Emptiness Realm Expert was the most important thing! Senior Martial Brother … it has been two months since you abdicated. But seeing you like this, I'm really anxious! "
Gu Yong was speechless.
Right …
Teng Qingshan only slightly damaged Qing Hu Island's reputation. However, Qing Hu Island's status was not affected at all! The foundation of Qing Hu Island, the 'heaven' of Qing Hu Island, was the Emptiness Realm Expert. Without an Emptiness Realm Expert, their heaven would collapse!
"The Gui Yuan Sect has an Emptiness Realm Expert. Zhuge Yuan-hong's improvement is even more shocking. It seems that Zhuge Yuan-hong might be able to step into the Emptiness Realm one day! In a few decades or a hundred years, the Gui Yuan Sect will have two Emptiness Realm Experts. Qing Hu Island won't have any! By then, Qing Hu Island will follow the footsteps of the Sword Sect from a thousand years ago! "
"By then, Qing Hu Island will be annihilated and will no longer exist! Senior Martial Brother, compared to that, Teng Qingshan's matter is nothing. "
Gu Yong was silent. His facial expression changed drastically. It was obvious that he was struggling.
After a long time —
Gu Yong's facial expression returned to normal. He bowed and said, "Island Lord! My eyes were blinded by anger. From today onwards, I will no longer interfere with the pursuit of Teng Qingshan! I will focus on cultivation in order to reach the Emptiness Realm! "Hearing this, the Island Lord, Tie Pan, smiled.
*****
After the battle in Wu City, Teng Qingshan first went to the Iron Saber Mountain Range in Yuzhou to try to change the Innate True Origin. He studied it for ten days. He had accumulated a lot of experience, so Teng Qingshan was confident. Even if he couldn't defeat a Golden Dan Innate Expert …
But at least, he could escape!
Soon after, Teng Qingshan left the Iron Saber Mountain Range and hurried north.
Every night, Teng Qingshan would ride a Dark Veins Horse he bought and gallop on the official road. With Teng Qingshan's night vision, it was no problem for him to travel at night. He could travel over a thousand Li in one night.
With this speed, Teng Qingshan could cultivate on the horse. He didn't waste any time.
During the day, Teng Qingshan would go to the forest and rest in an unfrequented place. At the same time, he could cultivate and practice the Three Postures.
… …
Just like that, he went out at night!
Half a month after the battle in Wu City, Teng Qingshan only took five days to leave Yuzhou and enter the northernmost part of the Land of the Nine Prefectures, Yanzhou.
White Lotus City, a small city in the northern part of Yanzhou.
A man walked in front of the Wan Xiang Tower.
This man wore a simple shirt, his hair was loose, and he carried a big bag on his back. A curved saber hung on his waist. This man stopped in front of the Wan Xiang Tower.
He raised his head and looked at the three golden words — Wan Xiang Tower!
"The Wan Xiang Tower exists in both Yi City and White Lotus City! In the entire Land of the Nine Prefectures, every city probably has a Wan Xiang Tower. The Wan Xiang Sect never contended for hegemony in the world and kept a low profile. However, in terms of wealth, the sum of all the Wan Xiang Towers in the world would be a terrifying amount. Among the eight supreme sects in the Land of the Nine Prefectures, many sects haven't existed as long as the Wan Xiang Sect! This is a sect with a long history. I'm afraid there are many experts. "Teng Qingshan sighed.
They were rich and had people all over the Land of the Nine Prefectures. They had disciples everywhere! They didn't compete for hegemony, so they naturally kept a lot of strength.
Just how strong was such a sect? It was hard to know.
"Please unload your weapon before entering the Wan Xiang Tower." The two girls at the door reached out their hands at the same time.
Teng Qingshan handed over the curved saber on his waist and walked inside.
The two disciples of the Wan Xiang Sect didn't stop Teng Qingshan … … even though there were weapons in Teng Qingshan's bag. However, they didn't know. Secondly, even if they knew, they couldn't force the customer to open the bag. That would be too much.
The interior of the Wan Xiang Tower was extremely spacious.
"《Earth Ranking》, 《Hidden Dragon Ranking》, 《Young Phoenix Ranking》!" Teng Qingshan looked at the first three books on the counter. When he entered the city for the first time, he bought an 《Earth Ranking》 from the Wan Xiang Tower. Because of that, he learned a lot about the Land of the Nine Prefectures.
"Waiter, give me one of these three books." Teng Qingshan said.
"《Hidden Dragon Ranking》 and 《Young Phoenix Ranking》 are each 100 taels of silver. 《Earth Ranking》 is 10 taels of silver." The waiter at the counter said.
Teng Qingshan took out a stack of silver notes and took out three 100 taels of silver.
When the waiter saw the stack of silver notes in Teng Qingshan's hands, he was a little jealous and sighed to himself, "You can't judge a book by its cover. It looks like it's an old man, but it doesn't have much silver. It looks ordinary, but it's a stack! "At the same time, he took out three books and gave them to Teng Qingshan along with 90 taels of silver.
Although there was a handling fee for exchanging silver notes, merchants still liked them. Ordinary civilians didn't like them.
"Do you have 《Heavenly Ranking》?" Teng Qingshan asked.
"No, it's not for sale." The waiter shook his head.
Teng Qingshan took the three books and went to the counter selling materials. His eyes instantly fixed on the Star Pattern Steel. "Give me 500 grams of Star Pattern Steel!" As he said this, he took out 10 100 taels of silver notes from the stack of silver notes.
"500 grams? Star Pattern Steel? "The waiter at the counter was slightly surprised. Star Pattern Steel, which was worth more than gold, was rarely bought.
The waiter quickly took 500 grams of Star Pattern Steel and carefully weighed it before giving it to Teng Qingshan.
500 grams of Star Pattern Steel was equivalent to 500 grams of gold, which was 1,000 taels of silver!
Teng Qingshan put the Star Pattern Steel and the three books into his bag. "With these Star Pattern Steel, I can repair the Reincarnation Spear's shaft … If I continue north, I will soon reach the Great Prairie! In the Great Prairie, it will be harder to find a blacksmith to buy Star Pattern Steel! "
White Lotus City was less than a thousand Li away from the Great Prairie.
With Teng Qingshan's speed, he could reach it in a day!
… …
White Lotus City, in the backyard of the Yang Clan Blacksmithing Shop.
"Old Craftsman Liu, this is Mister Qing. He is willing to pay a large sum of money for Old Craftsman Liu to repair weapons." A slightly plump middle-aged man wearing a felt hat spoke to a white-haired, sturdy old man wearing a round hat.
Old Craftsman Liu looked at Teng Qingshan and asked, "Mister Qing, what kind of weapon do you want to repair?"
"Craftsman Liu, can you repair Star Pattern Steel weapons?" Teng Qingshan asked.
"Star Pattern Steel?" Old Craftsman Liu laughed and said, "That's not difficult. However, it depends on how damaged your weapon is before I can fix the price!"
Teng Qingshan said directly, "The commission is 1,000 taels of silver! I want you to repair it immediately. "
"Sure, no problem." Old Craftsman Liu's eyes immediately lit up. Even if it was to forge a Star Pattern Steel weapon, the price of 1,000 taels of silver was already very high. Not to mention, it was just for repairing.
A moment later, in the craftsmen's shop.
Old Craftsman Liu looked at the Reincarnation Spear that Teng Qingshan handed over and his facial expression changed drastically, "This is, this is — —"
"Teacher, isn't this weapon … …" The disciple beside him also widened his eyes.
The news of the capture of Teng Qingshan spread like wildfire. The information about the Reincarnation Spear also became more detailed. After all, in the Great Yan Mountain, many Qing Hu Island's soldiers saw that Teng Qingshan's Reincarnation Spear was damaged.
The two were slightly puzzled and looked at Teng Qingshan in fear.
They were afraid that Teng Qingshan would kill them!
"If you repair it, there will be a reward! If you have other intentions … … "Teng Qingshan's eyes were like lightning as he glanced at the two craftsmen. The two were so shocked that they nodded repeatedly. The old craftsman hastily said," Master Qing, don't worry. I will definitely repair it! "
Teng Qingshan's reputation spread throughout the world. Even the four Golden Dan Innate Experts couldn't kill him. Who would dare to offend him?
When the sky turned dark.
Teng Qingshan carried his bag and quickly left the blacksmithing shop. "Tomorrow morning, we will be able to leave Yanzhou and enter the Great Prairie!"
In the blacksmithing shop, only the craftsman and the disciple were left in fear. They had just survived the disaster.
"Teacher, is he Teng Qingshan?" The disciple finally dared to let out a sigh of relief.
"Our guest is Mister Qing. What does he have to do with Teng Qingshan? " The old craftsman glared at the disciple and immediately looked at the gold note in his hand worth ten taels of silver. Only then did he let out a long sigh of relief. At this moment, he realized that his back was drenched in cold sweat.
