I am a late bloomer in the world of cultivating immortals

Chapter 342: Monk Wu, why did you bully the old man? (Please subscribe)

After leaving Wei's house, Wei Tu was not in a hurry to leave Lingyan Island. He escaped from the light and went to the family affairs hall of the Qiyue Zhao family on Lingyan Island.

Yesterday, he promised Wei Fei's wife that he would help Wei Fei intercede with the head of the Qiyue Zhao family and find Wei Fei the manager of the puppet workshop.

Before leaving, I will never forget this.

In addition, in addition to interceding for Wei Fei, Wei Tu had two other purposes in going to the family affairs hall of the Qiyue Zhao family.

First, Zhao Qingluo is a direct descendant of the Qiyue Zhao family and the ancestor of the new generation of Jindan. He already has a substantial relationship with Zhao Qingluo, so he would not go to the Qiyue Zhao family to say hello.

On both sides, Zhao Jiangwu was very kind to him by informing him of the secret passage between Kang and Zheng.

For both emotional and logical reasons, he should pay a visit to Qiyue Zhao's house to deepen their relationship.

……

Lingyan Island is the habitat of many members of the Zhao family in Shengya, and there are more than just one branch of the Qiyue Zhao family living there.

The Zhao family branch on the island had three major Jindan families a hundred years ago. After the Qiyue Zhao family joined, it became four major Jindan families.

However, where there are interests, there are disputes.

The Qiyue Zhao family has been away from their master's family for thousands of years. Although they still maintain a relatively close relationship with the Shengya Zhao family, they are like strangers to other families on Lingyan Island.

Although the Shengya Zhao family has great authority, they can't help the Qiyue Zhao family when it comes to the interests of Lingyan Island. After all, the palms and backs of the hands are all flesh.

Wei Fei's loneliness is also a microcosm of the exclusion the Qiyue Zhao family received after they moved to a foreign country.

It was only because Wei Fei was worshiped by a guest minister and was too far away from the core level that when the Qiyue Zhao family reduced their expenses, he was the first to be kicked out.

Otherwise, a foundation-building elder can maintain basic dignity even if he is a guest.

After flying away for a moment.

Wei Tu came to the core area of ​​Lingyan Island.

This place is the location of the affairs hall of the four major families on Lingyan Island, including the Qiyue Zhao family.

"The Qiyue Zhao family is really in a bad situation." Wei Tu thought to himself when he saw the Qiyue Zhao Family Affairs Hall, which was alone and built outside the other three clan affairs halls.

Before Wei Tu could escape the light and land on the ground, an old man in purple flew out of the Zhao family's family affairs hall in Qiyue. He bowed his hands to Wei Tu and shouted "Zhenjun Wei".

Wei Tu had known this old man in purple since he was in Zheng State. His name was "Zhao Mengjie" and he was the backbone of the foundation-building elders of the Qiyue Zhao family.

A hundred years later, he killed Zhao Tinghai and other older monks of the Zhao family, replaced Zhao Tinghai, and became the new patriarch of the Qiyue Zhao family.

"Wei Zhenjun, Ancestor Jiangwu has prepared a spiritual banquet in the clan affairs hall and has been waiting for a long time."

Zhao Mengjie said respectfully.

While speaking, Zhao Mengjie felt uneasy. After all, he had rejected Wei Fei's pleas several times before, showing off to him, and had also agreed to the clan's proposal to reduce Wei Fei's treatment.

Now that Wei Fei has thick thighs like Wei Tu, he is naturally uneasy.

"Please also ask the clan leader to lead the way."

Wei Tu didn't look unhappy and said with a pleasant look.

He has no prejudice against Zhao Mengjie.

——Qiyue The Zhao family has helped Wei Fei enough, but we can't deny their previous kindness just because they didn't show mercy once or twice.

Seeing this, Zhao Mengjie breathed a sigh of relief. He bowed his arms and stepped forward to lead Wei Tu into the family affairs hall of the Qiyue Zhao family.

There were not many people in the clan affairs hall.

Except for Zhao Jiangwu, who was at the top, and the four elders of the Qiyue Zhao family who were accompanying him, there was no one else.

Seeing Wei Tu come in, the elders in the clan affairs hall were very enthusiastic. After saluting, they chatted with Wei Tu about the past events of the Zheng Kingdom.

Wei Tu was not regarded as an outsider at all.

"I didn't expect that the Qiyue Zhao family would still be able to fawn over and rely on Wei Tu..."

Zhao Jiangwu, who was sitting at the top, had a complex expression.

Back then, he gave information about the secret passage between Kang and Zheng to Wei Tu. Although he intended to make good friends with Wei Tu, a potential Jindan monk, he did so with a condescending attitude.

Compared with the Qiyue Zhao family, Wei Tu from a hundred years ago was not good enough in terms of strength and heritage.

However, times change.

Now that Wei Tu is holding the guest order of his master, his weight in the world of immortal cultivation is already higher than that of the entire Qiyue Zhao family.

The gap was so big, even though Zhao Jiangwu knew that Wei Tu had good thoughts towards Qiyue Zhao family, in his heart, he could not easily let go of this matter.

"Drink, drink."

"I'm here to take care of fellow Daoist Wei."

After Wei Tu took his seat, Zhao Jiangwu stood up with a smile on his face and toasted to Wei Tu.

"Ancestor Jiang Wu is too polite."

Wei Tu returned the gesture with a humble gesture.

Seeing this, Zhao Jiangwu felt better and the smile on his face became more genuine.

Everyone drank together and talked about the past.

room.

Wei Tu mentioned the matter of Wei Fei.

Zhao Mengjie patted his chest and made a promise, "Even if Wei Zhenjun doesn't mention the position of manager of the puppet workshop, we still prefer Fellow Daoist Wei... Fellow Daoist Wei has superb puppetry skills and is the top cultivator of our Qiyue Zhao family."

In order to curry favor with Wei Tu, Zhao Mengjie was forced to say something against his will.

As far as he knew, among the Qiyue Zhao family, there were only twenty or thirty monks in the Qiyue Zhao family who were better than Wei Fei in the realm of puppets.

"Meng Jie, just one manager is not enough."

Zhao Jiangwu gave some suggestions.

"Yes... Meng Jie didn't think it through well." Zhao Mengjie punished himself with three cups and said with a smile: "Tomorrow, I will let Wei Daoyou serve as the leader of the puppet workshop."

The remaining elders of the Zhao family began to praise Wei Fei, saying that he was a rare puppet master who had a long-standing reputation on Lingyan Island...

While praising him, they all asked Zhao Mengjie to provide Wei Fei with additional treatment and salary.

The elders of the Qiyue Zhao family knew that if they wanted to curry favor with Wei Tu, with the Zhao family's shallow background, it would be difficult for Wei Tu to pay attention to him, but... it would be easy to change his mind, change the direction of attack, and put more effort into Wei Fei. too much.

This move makes it easier for Wei Tu to miss him.

"Thank you all the elders for your support. My second brother is the leader of the puppet workshop. You can just use your skills. There is no need to worry about anything else."

Seeing this, Wei Tu quickly stopped.

If the situation continues, Wei Fei may replace Zhao Mengjie and become the new patriarch of the Qiyue Zhao family.

The position of the leader of the puppet workshop is just right.

Neither high nor low.

First, he can let the other monks see his love for Wei Fei. Both of them just reached the point where he had feelings for the Qiyue Zhao family.

If it were higher, not only would the appreciation be too great, but it would also easily lead to Wei Fei's "moral mismatch."

That would not be a good thing.

After half a day of spiritual banquet, Zhao Mengjie and all the Zhao elders retired, leaving space for Wei Tu and Zhao Jiangwu to talk.

"How is Qingluo?"

Zhao Jiangwu asked.

He knew very well that the real bond between the Qiyue Zhao family and Wei Tu was Zhao Qingluo, not some dispensable favor.

The reason why marriages between aristocratic families are so popular is because love will gradually fade over time, but bedside style will never.

The engagement between Zhao Qingluo and Jiao Zihua was a good thing for the Zhao family and Zhao Qingluo in Qiyue, but with the arrival of Wei Tu, this good thing... may turn bad.

"Qingluo..."

Wei Tu pondered for a moment and told everything that happened during his trip to Shengya Mountain.

Including the defeat of Daozi Situ Yang.

From other people, he could hide the details in Shengya Mountain, but from Zhao Jiangwu, he didn't have to.

Although he and Zhao Jiangwu were not familiar with each other and were even considered strangers, due to their interest relationship... Zhao Jiangwu was even less likely to betray him than the Shengya Zhao family.

"Qing Luo, this child, has had a Taoist heart since she was a child. She doesn't know much about human relationships. After she was robbed and killed in the qi training realm, she now understands a little bit about how to deal with others..."

Zhao Jiangwu sighed and defended Zhao Qingluo's refusal to break off the engagement.

In fact, in his opinion, Zhao Qingluo's choice was not wrong, and there was really no need to waste her promising future for a love affair.

It's just... Wei Tu was so dazzling that it seemed that it was Zhao Qingluo's fault. One sentence.

It's not the thing that's wrong, it's the person.

Zhao Qingluo couldn't understand it, but he, a veteran golden elixir, could see it clearly.

Being a direct disciple of Shengya Mountain can indeed provide Zhao Qingluo with resources and assistance, but that is only at the Golden Elixir level, and at the Nascent Soul level, it is almost gone.

In other words, it is almost impossible for Zhao Qingluo to use the resources of Shengya Mountain to break through to the Nascent Soul realm.

Back then, the reason why Zhao Zhujun had an affair with Situ Yang was not only the mutual affection between the two, but also had a lot to do with Situ Yang's identity.

——Becoming the Taoist companion of Taoist disciple Situ Yang, Zhao Zhujun will be able to take a step forward and break through the Nascent Soul realm in a few hundred years.

These are all things that can be verified.

In terms of resource rationing, Wei Tu is indeed not as good as Dao Zi from Shengya Mountain, but when he becomes the ancestor of Yuanying, this status gap will be unnecessary.

"Everyone has a desire to follow the Tao. Wei also fully understands Qingluo's move..."

Wei Tu smiled slightly and stopped talking.

As a Taoist, he will have a grudge.

But if you are not a Taoist monk, you don’t have to worry about it.

Moreover, after defeating Situ Yang, the Shengya Zhao family had promised to help him resolve the engagement matter.

Hearing this, Zhao Jiangwu didn't have much to say. After all, this was the private matter of the young couple. He shook his head and opened another topic.

only--

We haven't been talking to each other for long.

Outside the hall, there was suddenly a burst of mana fluctuations, the power of which was at the golden elixir level.

"Someone breaks into Lingyan Island without permission?"

Zhao Jiangwu's expression changed slightly. He apologized to Wei Tu and immediately flew out.

"Who has such courage?"

Wei Tu looked surprised.

Lingyan Island is the land of the Shengya Zhao family. It is protected by the Shengya Zhao family. How can a mere Golden Elixir monk dare to stroke the beard of a Nascent Soul force?

Therefore, Wei Tu followed Zhao Jiangwu out of the clan affairs hall and came to the outside of Lingyan Island.

I saw-

Outside Lingyan Island, a resolute young man with slightly dark skin was hanging in the air, holding a magic sword and looking at the several Zhao family golden elixirs in front of him with a cold face.

After seeing Zhao Jiangwu coming out, he slowly turned his eyes away and stared at Zhao Jiangwu.

"Zhao Jiangwu, the ancestor of the Qiyue Zhao family?"

The determined young man seemed to confirm his identity.

"Who are you?" Zhao Jiangwu saw the determined young man and felt that his appearance was vaguely familiar, as if he had seen him somewhere.

The determined young man snorted coldly and did not answer.

But at this time, Zhao Jiangwu had already searched his memory and remembered the identity of the determined young man.

"It's Tianyi Sect Jiao Zihua."

Zhao Jiangwu sent a message to Wei Tu.

Jiao Zihua was a candidate for marriage between the Shengya Zhao family and the Tianyi Sect Jiao family, and the marriage was related to the Qiyue Zhao family... Therefore, more than ten years ago, he had inquired about some matters. Jiao Zihua's information.

So at this moment, Zhao Jiangwu could recognize the determined young man in front of him at a glance. It was Jiao Zihua.

"It seems that Jiao Zihua came to Lingyan Island to cause trouble after he found out about the breakup of the engagement..."

Zhao Jiangwu made a judgment.

Jiao Zihua did not have the courage to challenge the Shengya Zhao family, but against the Qiyue Zhao family, as a direct descendant of the Tianyi Jiao family, Jiao Zihua had no fear.

"Fellow Daoist Wei, try not to take action and let our Zhao family resolve this matter..."

Zhao Jiangwu added.

He was worried that if Jiao Zihua angered Wei Tu, he might be killed or injured on Lingyan Island.

At that time, it will be difficult to deal with.

A blind cat and a dead bird.

Although the Shengya Zhao family and the Tianyi Jiao family are two major celestial families, both of which are Yuanying families, this does not mean that both families have talented people from generation to generation.

Jiao Zihua was on the same level as Zhao Zhujun in terms of status and strength, so he was allowed to marry...

——If you are really a proud person, generally speaking, your elders will not interfere at will in your marriage.

"There is a fellow Daoist Lao."

Wei Tu readily agreed and stepped aside.

Judging from the fact that Jiao Zihua only targeted Zhao Jiangwu, he probably did not know the existence of his "third party" and the information he received was limited.

To be honest, Wei Tu was a little sympathetic to Jiao Zihua's experience. After all, he was a victim from the beginning to the end, and he was annulled twice in succession...

However, if he were Jiao Zihua, he would only hate the Shengya Zhao family, "Zhao Zhujun", and even "Zhao Qingluo", and would not deliberately involve the Qiyue Zhao family, a family with no decision-making ability.

Even if the hatred expands, it will not jump out in a hurry when it is still in its infancy.

"Like Zhao Zhujun, he is just a second-generation immortal who is spoiled by his family and doesn't know how high the world is."

Wei Tu secretly shook his head.

……

Not long after Zhao Jiangwu appeared.

Jiao Zihua became furious and started to fight with the Zhao family's Jindan who was present.

The Jindan from other families saw that Jiao Zihua's only target was Zhao Jiangwu. After fighting for a while, they stopped working, leaving Zhao Jiangwu alone to bear Jiao Zihua's indiscriminate bombardment.

At this time, Fu Dalu, who was waiting outside the island, also came after hearing the news and stood beside Wei Tu to watch the battle together.

"This old guy is about to be defeated. He has lived such a long life in vain. He can't even defeat a young golden elixir in the same realm..."

Fu Dalu said disparagingly to Zhao Jiangwu.

He is in the late stage of Jin Dan, far ahead of Zhao Jiangwu and Jiao Zihua, who are in the middle stage of Jin Dan. Naturally, he has the confidence to judge their fighting skills.

However, Wei Tu on the side didn't see it that way.

He could see that Zhao Jiangwu had concerns and was afraid of his identity when dealing with Jiao Zihua, so he never used his full strength, and then he was suppressed by Jiao Zihua.

"Master Fu, this old guy... no, this old fellow Taoist is an old friend of Wei. Could you please help him solve his crisis?"

Seeing that Zhao Jiangwu was about to be defeated, Wei Tu immediately looked at Fu Dalu and asked him for help.

After all, on the surface, he is also a weak middle-stage golden elixir, not as good as Jiao Zihua, the Immortal Sect's golden elixir.

Zhao Jiangwu didn't let him take action, but he never said he wouldn't let Fu Dalu take action.

"Help me?"

Fu Dalu frowned when he heard this.

As a monk, he knew quite a lot of the monks in Haizhou and was unwilling to cause trouble.

When a robber goes to rob someone, he has to check the intelligence first, right?

However, Fu Dalu Si and Wei Tu were valued by the Shengya Zhao family, and the monks provoked by Jiao Zihua were not of a high level and were only the Golden Elixir Queen of a small clan...

He immediately felt confident.

"Monk Wu! Why are you bullying the old man? The young monk is here, let's fight with him!"

Fu Dalu took a step forward and put his palms together.

In an instant, bright Buddha light burst out from his body, and a golden sun appeared behind his head, as if the Buddha was alive.

see this scene.

All of the Zhao family's golden elixirs who were onlookers looked surprised. They didn't know where this bald monk came from and why he suddenly upheld justice for Zhao Jiangwu.

Even Jiao Zihua, who was fighting, had a look of confusion on his face.

Obviously, he did not know or know when he offended this bald monk.
