Qi Qian's mind echoed with Venerable Ghostfire's words. Even though he still had a lot of doubts, Qi Qian felt that Venerable Ghostfire's words might not be false. However, when he thought of his Eldest Senior Brother's death and the sudden change in the silver-haired cultivator's image, Qi Qian felt extremely uncomfortable.
"With Senior's strength, I'm afraid you'll have to at least reach the Divine Illusionary Realm before you can take your revenge. That's all I have to say. Farewell." Venerable Ghostfire cupped his hands towards Qi Qian and stood up to leave.
"Lu Xiaotian, oh Lu Xiaotian, don't blame me for being nosy. You only gave me thirty low-grade spirit crystals and a small amount of spirit stones. Although this amount of spirit crystals is enough for me to cultivate to the Nascent Soul stage, after coming to this world, my ambition is not limited to the Nascent Soul stage." After coming out of the restaurant, Venerable Ghostfire smiled coldly. Then, he put on a humble expression and disappeared into the vast crowd.
In front of them was a field of green lotuses that rose and fell one after another. From time to time, colorful dragonflies would rise and fall on the lotuses. Lu Xiaotian's group was in a stone pavilion next to the lotus pond. A row of maids were like butterflies flitting through flowers as they brought out a large number of spirit fruits and all kinds of fine wine. There were also some delicacies of this world. Lu Xiaotian was not in the mood to eat, but when he smelled the enchanting fragrance, he couldn't help but feel his appetite stir.
"This place is called Green Lotus Temple. Is it related to the Buddhist Sect?" Lu Xiaotian asked.
"That's right. Although it's not the property of the Pearl Buddhist Sect, in the past, a Buddhist Sect senior monk named Monk Green Lotus ambushed and killed Old Demon Hei Shi here. This temple was destroyed in that shocking battle. Later, Monk Green Lotus healed here and rebuilt it. Since then, Green Lotus Temple has become famous, "Guo Jingyu explained.
"I see. I thought it was the property of the Buddhist Sect." Lu Xiaotian poured the immortal wine in the cup into his mouth. As he savored the delicious taste, his eyes drifted to a group of people not far away. There were two bald monks in the crowd. One of them was Xiang Hua. Xiang Hua had a small mole on the back of his neck and a small scar that had been there since the Scarlet Abyss Continent. At this time, although the degree of clarity had not been changed, this had not been changed.
"Benefactor, this place did not belong to our Buddhist Sect in the past. However, it will soon belong to our Buddhist Sect." The young monk behind Xiang Hua said.
"Oh? Qinglian Temple is under the direct control of the City Lord's Mansion. The City Lord's Mansion's property will not be easily transferred, "Yu Zimo said.
"This is Second Miss Yu's ignorance. In no more than three days, the Green Lotus Temple will become the property of the Buddhist Sect. "At this moment, a tall and thin man with a gloomy expression spoke with a voice as cold as ice.
"This person is Shang Wuque's older brother, Shang Wuhen. The two brothers are very close, "Guo Jingyu whispered to Lu Xiaotian. "Brother Lu, be careful. This person has come with ill intentions, and his hostility towards you is even stronger."
"Why?" Lu Xiaotian's gaze swept over Xiang Hua. Xiang Hua also glanced at him. However, Xiang Hua's gaze was completely unfamiliar, no different from looking at anyone else. It was as if he didn't recognize him at all. Lu Xiaotian couldn't help but frown. He didn't know if Xiang Hua really didn't recognize him, or if he was doing it on purpose.
"Zhou Yu and Cui Liu used to be somewhat famous people in Yuan Spirit City. Shang Wuhen is very clear about their strength, as well as Zimo's. His younger brother Shang Wuque's team is even stronger than ours. This time, Shang Wuhen didn't make it back, so he's blaming us, especially Brother Lu. "
Guo Jingyu saw Lu Xiaotian's frown and comforted him, "However, Shang Wuque's pursuit of us that day was ultimately his Shang Clan's fault. Not to mention that there's no evidence to investigate, even if there is, it's their own loss of face. We're all on the same side, so there's no need to be too afraid of this person. However, we have to be careful that when we leave Yuan Spirit City in the future, we might be ambushed by this person. "
"You're the other Second Grade Pill King that came with Yu Zimo?" Shang Wuhen looked coldly at Lu Xiaotian, a powerful aura enveloping him.
"Since you already know, why bother asking?" Lu Xiaotian said indifferently.
"You've got guts. I've heard that not only are your alchemy skills exceptional, your divine abilities are even more outstanding. Do you have the guts to spar with me?" Shang Wuhen directly challenged.
"Shang Wuhen, Brother Lu is a guest that Jingyu and I invited. You're the Shang Clan's young master. Aren't you thinking too highly of yourself?" Yu Zimo slammed the table.
"Everyone, Green Lotus Temple is a peaceful place. Do not rashly start a fight. If you have any old grudges, my Buddhist Sect is willing to mediate between you. "" That's right. What do you think? "The monk that came with Xiang Hua said calmly.
"The Pearl Buddhist Sect has been expanding its influence these past few years. If my Yu Clan still needs to mediate, we'll become a laughingstock. If Brother Lu isn't willing, you can refuse. "Yu Zimo secretly transmitted to Lu Xiaotian.
"My name is Lu Xiaotian. How should I address the two esteemed monks of the Buddhist Sect?" Lu Xiaotian looked at the tall and skinny monk and Xiang Hua and asked.
"So it's Benefactor Lu. I don't deserve the title of esteemed monk. I'm Hui Gang, and this is my Junior Brother, Hui Xian." When Hui Gang heard that Lu Xiaotian seemed to have the intention of letting the Buddhist Sect be the mediator, he immediately warmed up to Lu Xiaotian.
"If your esteemed sect is willing to mediate, that's naturally the best. I'm willing to listen to your esteemed sect's arrangements. It's just that this Young Master Shang's murderous aura is quite strong. It's hard to say if he can mediate," Lu Xiaotian said.
"Yuan Ling City has its own rules. Not everyone can act rashly. When this matter is over, I'll write a letter to the Shang Clan and ask about this matter. That's right. In three days, my Buddhist Sect is preparing to hold an alchemy convention at Green Lotus Temple. I've heard that Benefactor Lu is quite famous in the field of alchemy. I hope you can accept the invitation."
"Alright, I'll definitely come." Lu Xiaotian nodded.
"Brother Lu, although the Buddhist Sect is a huge protective umbrella, it's precisely because the Buddhist Sect is too big that once you get involved with it, you'll be subject to a lot of restrictions. Brother Lu, you wouldn't want to seek protection from the Buddhist Sect, right? "
When Yu Zimo heard the conversation between the two, he couldn't help but feel a little anxious in his heart. If Lu Xiaotian was pulled into the Yue Feng Pill Store by Guo Jingyu, she could still ask Lu Xiaotian for help. If Lu Xiaotian entered the Buddhist Sect, the situation would be different.
"Don't worry, I haven't exhausted my six roots. I don't want to leave home and become a monk." Lu Xiaotian replied to Yu Zimo.
"Brother Lu, it's good that you understand." Yu Zimo and Guo Jingyu both breathed a sigh of relief at the same time. They naturally hoped that Lu Xiaotian would join their forces. It would be best if he had to choose between the two of them. If he entered the Buddhist Sect, that would be the worst outcome.
"Alright, I'll be ready when the time comes." Seeing that Lu Xiaotian was so cooperative, Hui Gang was extremely happy. Then, he looked at Shang Wuhen and said, "Benefactor Shang, Benefactor Lu has already agreed to participate in the Pill Assembly in three days. Benefactor Shang might as well consider my Buddhist Sect's suggestion. "
"I'll think about it." Shang Wuhen didn't expect Lu Xiaotian to be so spineless. He was also extremely dissatisfied with how the Buddhist Sect had stretched their hands so far. However, it wasn't convenient for him to flare up at this time. He immediately left in a huff.
