"You …"
"I … I think I have something else to do?"
"Um … you … you do what you need to do. I'll be leaving first!"
At this moment, the demonic phoenix, who had been slapped in the face, didn't even wait for Linley to say anything. It hurriedly replied, then disappeared from the bamboo hut.
"She ran so fast!"
He already knew about Xie Feng's actions, so he didn't say anything.
"Chu Ci, let your master in!"
Chu Ci, who had been guarding Lin Ray at the door, was in a dilemma when he saw his master. But Lin Ray's voice suddenly came, which solved his immediate problem.
Then, Chu Ci smiled and said to his former master, "Master, the young master invites you in!"
"Okay, got it!"
Chu Tiansheng didn't find anything strange about Chu Ci's words. After all, Chu Ci was a cultivator stronger than him, so it was impossible for him not to know that he had come.
Chu Ci nodded at him. With a smile, he took a step forward and entered the room.
Lin Ray, who was sitting cross-legged on the bamboo bed, didn't even turn his head. He had a smile on his face. A cup of tea and a piece of chess. He looked like an expert who lived in seclusion.
The fragrance of tea filled the room. Perhaps it was because it was early in the morning, but the fragrance of grass and bamboo leaves mixed with the morning sun and the fragrance of tea in the room made Chu Tiansheng frown. He couldn't help but close his eyes, and a look of enjoyment appeared on his face.
"Haha …"
"Sect Master Chu, could it be that you came so early just to smell the quiet and secluded air in my bamboo house?"
"Uh …"
At this moment, Chu Tiansheng, who had been affected by the aura in the room, suddenly heard Linley's words. He quickly regained his senses and bowed. "Fellow Daoist Lin, you must be joking."
With that, Chu Tiansheng revealed an awkward expression and walked toward Lin Ray. Step by step, he walked with vigorous steps. However, in Lin Ray's eyes, his image was already fixed.
Cowardly, timid, afraid of the wolf in front and the tiger behind, as cowardly as a mouse. There was nothing else.
Of course, Linley naturally couldn't say such things out loud. On the surface, he still had to be polite to him. After all, he was Chu Ci's master. He had to be polite on the surface. Otherwise, if things became awkward, it would be difficult for Chu Ci to return.
Moreover, the most important thing was that if he did this, then it would be hard for both sides to not be afraid of death when they worked together in the future.
"Heh … Yeah, you must be joking!"
At this moment, knowing that Chu Tiansheng was already in front of him, Lin Ray put down the teacup in his hand and looked up with the same expression.
"I wonder what brings Sect Master Chu here today?"
"Eh …"
Hearing Lin Ray's words, Chu Tiansheng was stunned. He secretly muttered in his heart, "Tch, aren't you asking the obvious?"
Even though that was what he was thinking, his words were different. They were impassioned and came from the bottom of his heart.
"Fellow Daoist Lin, you must be joking!"
With that, Chu Tian Tian sat down and continued, "Half a month ago, I didn't answer Fellow Cultivator Jin's question in time. It was my fault. In the past half a month, I've thought about it again and again and decided …"
"Oh? Half a month ago …? "
Knowing that he came from Lin Ray, Chu Tiansheng couldn't let him off so easily. He had waited here for half a month, and now he was going to let him off so easily with just a few words. This was Lin Ray we were talking about!
"Oh, that's right? Half a month ago, didn't you say that you wanted to become a Talisman Grandmaster? I've been thinking about it for the past few days, and I think that it's possible. I wonder … "
"Oh, so that's what you're talking about!"
Hearing his words, Lin Ray pretended to remember. However, a sinister and evil smile appeared on his face.
"That's right, I wonder …"
"Hold on …"
Just as Chu Tiansheng was about to speak, Lin Ray interrupted him, "Grandmaster Chu, what you're talking about is something that happened half a month ago. The conditions that I offered back then were definitely beneficial to your Danzong Sect. "
"But, you rejected me resolutely and decisively. Initially, I had already given up and wanted to bring the two of them to the Array Sect to look for a deal."
"What?"
Lin Ray's words ignited Chu Tiansheng instantly. "No, this … this … fellow Daoist Lin, you …"
At this moment, Chu Tiansheng was extremely frustrated. In fact, he wanted to give himself a few tight slaps. In the past half a month, he had weighed the pros and cons of this matter.
Be it the Pill Crafting Assembly or the Talisman Grandmaster, no matter which one it was, there were benefits to be had. And it was a huge one.
In the past half a month, he had thought about many things. Just yesterday, he had thought about it. He had wanted to come over yesterday, but he was afraid that he would disturb Lin Ray. Therefore, he delayed his visit. But now …
He was extremely particular about the pros and cons. Therefore … When Lin Ray said that he wanted to look for the Talisman Grandmaster for a deal, he regretted it. He truly regretted it.
"No … no, no, no! Definitely not! Fellow Daoist Lin, please listen to me! I …"
Just like that, a monk began to recite scriptures to him. All sorts of great principles and all sorts of irrelevant matters were all brought to this matter by the dignified Sect Leader of the Pill Sect. Regarding this, Linley adopted the attitude of watching a show. He drank his tea and played chess with himself. It could be said that he was rather relaxed and at ease.
Of course, if there wasn't this chattering Chu Tiansheng beside him, it would be even more perfect.
Time passed bit by bit. Lin Ray was truly impressed by Chu Tiansheng's eloquence. That little mouth of his was chattering non-stop. Midway through, Lin Ray passed him some tea. However, he seemed to be extremely nervous and afraid, and did not take a single sip. Just like that, he chattered from morning till night.
"Sigh! Fellow Daoist Lin, look! After talking so much, you should at least express your stance. I've shown you all my sincerity. As long as you say it, I, Chu Tiansheng, will definitely do it. As long as we can reach a deal, it's fine. "
"Hmm … Eh?"
Lin Ray, who was feeling sleepy, suddenly heard the chattering sound in his ear disappear. Then, his sleepiness also disappeared at this moment.
"Oh, my ears finally have some peace!"
He stretched his body and was about to stand up and leave. However, at this moment, a hand suddenly reached out and grabbed him.
"Fellow Daoist Jin, look at you …"
"Uh …"
When this voice suddenly appeared, even Linley was a little scared. He was already afraid of this voice. He could keep talking for an entire day. In response, Linley hurriedly responded.
"Um … Sect Master Chu, it's already dark. Shouldn't you …" As he spoke, Linley hurriedly broke free from Chu Tiansheng's grasp and gestured towards the door.
This gesture was enough to show what it meant. He believed that as long as he wasn't a fool, he would understand.
However, what Lin Ray didn't expect was that Chu Tiansheng would be so shameless. Chu Tiansheng had clearly seen his gesture and understood the meaning behind it, but he pretended not to see it. Lin Ray was helpless about this.
"Yes, Grandmaster Chu. You're really good."
Looking at him, Lin Ray nodded and sat down again with a helpless expression. He said, "I can ask for your previous conditions. Of course, the conditions have to be changed."
"Yes, say it!"
"As long as the deal is reached, and as long as it doesn't endanger the Danzong Sect, I'll agree to everything you said."
At this moment, Chu Tiansheng's face was full of smiles. The shameless expression from before had disappeared. He had now returned to his old, cunning self.
Of course, Lin Ray naturally sensed that he had agreed so readily. He didn't waste any more time and directly said, "Actually, it's not a big deal.
"Actually, the condition I want to add isn't anything big. I just want your Pill Sect to help me gather all the information about the Fire Sect, Rain Sect, Talisman Sect, and Sword Sect."
"Of course, this condition may seem simple, but it's actually full of danger. If you don't handle it well, the entire Danzong Sect will be implicated and may even be wiped out."
"…"
Lin Ray's words made Chu Tiansheng fall silent at this moment. However, Lin Ray could see that his eyes were very firm. Lin Ray understood this.
"The final condition is also very good. The Danzong Sect will be the leader of the Seven Sects. Similarly, the Xuanzong Sect will become your ally. You should know that a Venerable Grade Alchemist is very important to a sect that specializes in alchemy. "
"What? Venerable … Venerable Grade Alchemist? That's possible … This … "
"Nothing is impossible. You should know that there are all kinds of strange things in the world. What you know and see is just a cluster of icebergs in the world. The Venerable Grade Alchemist Realm is just the current realm. It's not certain how high it will be in the future."
"Mm …!"
At this moment, shock, surprise, joy, anticipation, and all kinds of complicated expressions appeared in Chu Tiansheng's eyes.
At the same time, his heart to form an alliance with Lin Ray became even more firm at this moment! He was firm, so firm that he wouldn't allow it.
"How about it? Do you agree … or … "
"I agree, of course I agree!"
Before Lin Ray could finish speaking, Chu Tiansheng moved closer to Lin Ray with a smile and said in a pleading tone, "That … Fellow … Fellow Daoist Lin Ray, you see, next month is the Alchemy Conference. All the forces will gather there to watch the event. Say, if a Venerable Grade Alchemist comes personally, then …"
"Ha, you're dreaming!"
His appearance made Lin Ray want to vomit. He had seen shameless people before, but he had never seen someone as shameless as him.
However, in order to make sure that his life would still be his after a hundred years, Lin Ray didn't refuse. "Okay, when the time comes, I will ask the Venerable Grade Alchemist of my sect to help you. At the same time, you have to express your attitude. I will know everything about the four sects."
"Remember, I want to know everything about their sons, grandsons, and even what grudges they had in their previous lives. What grudges they had with their sons, and even what enemies they have. I want to know everything."
As he spoke, Lin Ray's aura changed instantly. A moment ago, it was warm and warm, but the next moment, it was as cold as the Grim Reaper.
"If you can't do that, I will let you know that I, Lin Ray, don't make deals carelessly. I will let you know that the price of being perfunctory with me will be the death of your entire sect, including your clan, as compensation for my loss."
"Uh … I … I know!"
Fear. He, who was in a high position, also knew the taste of fear. For millions of years, he had been living under the protection of his clan and his master. He had lived a very peaceful life.
Even if the other six sects were eyeing him covetously, there was no danger to his life. But now, he knew the taste of fear. It was so despairing. It was suffocating.
At the same time, he swore that he couldn't afford to offend the person in front of him. Similarly, no one in the entire God Realm could offend him.
As for those who dared to provoke him, they would all meet a hellish end.
"Okay, as long as you remember!"
Looking at his current appearance, Lin Ray smiled. Then, he stood up and left the room in a flash, leaving Chu Ci's line of sight.
And this deal was made just like that. Although he didn't gain much from it, he didn't care. After all, this was related to his life. So, he felt that it was worth it. If he lost his life, it would be useless no matter how much he gained.
After death, everything would turn into nothingness, and he could only turn into a pile of yellow soil.
"Am I free?"
At this moment, Lin Ray, who had just left the room, wanted to go out and take a look at the beautiful scenery of the Danzong Sect. Perhaps Xie Feng had been waiting for him all this time!
"Aiya, damn!"
He knew this voice very well and was very familiar with it. After all, they had been together for so many years.
Hearing her words, Lin Ray smiled bitterly. Then, he hurriedly turned around. The bitter smile from before disappeared. At this moment, he was smiling and looked very happy.
"Xie Feng, you … you didn't go out to play?"
"Why? You don't want to see me that much?"
"Uh … what are you talking about? Why wouldn't I want to see you? You're a Saint Stage expert! I can't wait to curry favor with you! "
"Tsk, forget it!" Seeing Lin Ray's reaction, Xie Feng rolled her eyes at him. Then, she said, "Kid, don't say that I'm not on your side. The Danzong Sect is not simple!"
"Oh?"
He was already bored to death. When he heard Xie Feng's words, he was naturally tempted and curious.
"Hmm? When I went out to play today, I felt a terrifying aura in the back of the mountain. This aura made me feel sick and disgusted … "
"Oh? Something that could make you feel fear must be very powerful. "
Looking at Xie Feng, Lin Ray thought about what she had just said. Suddenly, a wave of curiosity rose in Lin Ray's heart.
"Oh, you're tempted?"
"Yes, Xie Feng knows me well!"
He was no longer surprised that Xie Feng knew him well. "There's still one and a half months before the Alchemy Conference. Since I have nothing to do, I might as well go there and take a look. Maybe I can find something interesting. After all, it's too boring here. I can't just drink tea, chat, and play chess for the rest of my days!"
"Hmm, that's true. Since that's the case, let's go. Anyway, there's nothing to do here. You've already finished your discussion with Old Man Chu."
