I am a late bloomer in the world of cultivating immortals

Chapter 360: Trade routes restored, Yan Xiaolan’s choice (please subscribe)

Leave the Zongwu Hall.

Kou Hongying went to his cave to meet Wei Yan.

With an apologetic look on her face, she informed Wei Yan of the results of the Jingshui Pavilion senior management's discussion.

"Being too old to die is a thief! Shen Yunqiu is angry with you because of our lineage."

"Sister Hongying, it's okay. If it weren't for the token given by Master Ning Pavilion, I could still go to Ningyue Palace to break through." Wei Yan held Kou Hongying's arm and smiled gently.

"That's fine."

Kou Hongying nodded helplessly.

There seems to be no difference between breaking through in Jingshui Pavilion and breaking through in Ningyue Palace. They are both immortal sects with little difference, but the actual difference is huge.

For the former, she can provide certain care.

To put it bluntly, if Wei Yan fails in her attempt to break through the golden elixir, she will be able to protect the law in time in Jingshui Pavilion and save Wei Yan's life.

But the latter is quite different.

Without her help, Wei Yan's eyesight almost went dark in the unfamiliar environment of Ningyue Palace.

"I will ask the Frost Fairy to take care of you as much as possible."

Kou Hongying tried her best to remedy the situation.

Wei Yan did not refuse. When it comes to the important things in life, she understands the importance.

Accepting a favor is better than the consequences of failure.

"Shen Yunqiu..."

After conversing with Kou Hongying, Wei Yan returned to the guest room and whispered these three words several times, completely remembering the name "Shen Yunqiu" in her heart.

She remembered this name not because she hated it to the core of her bones, but to "check for omissions and fill in the gaps" to avoid being plotted against in the future and not knowing who the enemy was.

……

Wei Tu's good luck did not last long.

Not long after he broke through the golden elixir, news came from Haizhou that the Tianyi Sect had surrendered and the major chambers of commerce had reopened the trade routes between Xiao and Kang.

This incident did not cause much trouble in Caozhou, but it was very detrimental to the Yan family who were concerned about Wei Tu's legacy after his death.

Everyone in the Yan family was worried that Wei Tu would suddenly run away, leave Caozhou, Xiao State, and return to Kang State.

"Xiaolan, how is Senior Cui's status recently? Has he ever expressed his intention to leave Xiaohan Mountain?"

The next day, Yan Limei contacted Yan Xiaolan privately again to inquire about Wei Tu's specific information.

In the past eight years, although Wei Tu has not touched Yan Xiaolan's body, Yan Xiaolan is still in perfect condition. However, Yan Xiaolan once hinted to Yan Limei that there was a certain degree of close communication between herself and Wei Tu, just to preserve the Yin Yuan of the furnace. That's why he didn't break through the last step.

Therefore, no one in the Yan family has ever doubted whether Yan Xiaolan was Wei Tu's bedfellow.

"Senior Cui seems to be in good spirits recently, but when he comes into contact with Xiaolan... he often looks old and lacks energy... I'm afraid he doesn't have much left to live."

Yan Xiaolan made nonsense.

She deliberately portrayed Wei Tu as a lustful old cultivator who was unwilling to care about Shu.

"Lack of energy?" Yan Limei looked at Yan Xiaolan's pretty red face and couldn't help but cursed inwardly. She was not ashamed to seduce Senior Cui all day long, and she didn't know how many kickbacks she had received.

Yan Limei guessed that Wei Tu had taken a lot of aphrodisiac pills recently because of bed needs, which made him appear energetic and out of shape.

"Tomorrow, my uncle will come to Xiaohan Mountain to visit Senior Cui. You keep an eye on Senior Cui and try not to let him refine elixirs during this period and miss the meeting time..."

After pondering for a moment, Yan Limei said.

seeing is believing. She and Yan Xiaolan were only in the foundation-building realm, and it was difficult to see through Wei Tu's physical condition. If they were deceived by him, something would be seriously wrong.

Let Yan Zezhi take a look in person, not only to confirm the truth, but also to make it easier for her to shirk the corresponding responsibilities in the future.

"Second Grandpa is coming?"

Yan Xiaolan secretly thought something was wrong.

In the past eight years, she had troubled the Yan family a lot because she had boarded Wei Tu's pirate ship and could not rebel.

——These lies are not only to "cover" Wei Tu, but more so that she can eat both sides and let the Yan family continue to give her corresponding benefits.

If Yan Zezhi came in person and had corresponding communication with Wei Tu, her lie would be easily exposed.

Therefore, after Yan Limei left, Yan Xiaolan immediately turned to Wei Tu and reported the corresponding matter. In fact, it uses the concealment of the colorful phantom moth.

Wei Tu already knew everything about the conversation between Yan Xiaolan's aunt and nephew.

However, he was quite pleased that Yan Xiaolan could understand the situation.

"I'm not hiding anything. I came to Xiaohan Mountain for other important reasons, not to take care of myself."

After thinking for a moment, Wei Tu told Yan Xiaolan part of the truth.

It’s different in the past.

Before coming to Xiaohan Mountain, his body-refining realm was half-impaired and his Qi-refining cultivation was only in the middle stage of the Golden Core. He had to be afraid of Lou Gaozong and the Yan family.

But now, his physical and mental cultivations are at the same level, they have both reached the late stage of the Golden Core, and their combat power is at the top of the Golden Core peak.

There is no need to be afraid of Lou Gaozong and the Yan family!

There were only two things he really had to worry about.

First, his true identity was exposed, and he was completely hated by the Japanese Ministry of Fire and regarded as a life-or-death enemy.

Secondly, the sun-shooting department reacted, causing him to fall short in Xiaohan Mountain, and his body was not completely washed away by the ice soul liquid.

The reason why he told Yan Xiaolan his true state was that Wei Tu wanted Yan Xiaolan to understand that the only way to go was to surrender to him.

Make Yan Xiaolan completely his confidant so that this scene can be played out until the end two years later.

It is absolutely impossible for him to ride on two boats!

Wei Tu could see clearly that although Yan Xiaolan had taken refuge with him on the surface, deep down she still had the idea of ​​rebelling against him and returning to the Yan family.

"What? Not just to live in your old age?" Hearing this sentence, Yan Xiaolan almost fainted.

She had worked diligently for the past eight years just to wait for Wei Tu to die of old age so that she could inherit the inheritance.

Unexpectedly, all this is just a dream.

"With my strength, it is not difficult to escape from Lou Gaozong's sphere of influence."

Then, Wei Tu said this coldly.

Hearing these words, Yan Xiaolan's expression changed a few times. At this moment, she indeed felt a powerful aura from Wei Tu that far surpassed that of her second grandfather Yan Zezhi.

This means that Wei Tu's realm is at least in the late Jindan stage.

After all, the second grandfather Yan Zezhi's realm is the middle stage of Jindan.

"When Xiaolan married into Xiaohan Mountain, she once said that when you marry a chicken, follow the chicken, and when you marry a dog, follow the dog. It is Xiaolan's honor to have the honor to serve my senior today."

Yan Xiaolan forced a smile and replied.

If Wei Tu follows the Yan family's plan and dies of old age, she will still have the opportunity to conceal her past surrender to Wei Tu and be accepted by the Yan family again.

But now, when Wei Tu reveals his true state and expresses his purpose... she really has no choice but to marry and follow the other, and her path is in tatters.

After all, in the Yan family, she is just a dispensable tool. No one was willing to listen to her last resort.

"Cui has two pills in his hand, one is a green flame pill and the other is a third-level poison pill."

"It's your choice."

Wei Tu looked satisfied. He nodded slightly, turned his palm, and found two pills in his hand.

The Biyan Pill is a substitute for the Metamorphosis Pill. But its value is far from that of the Metamorphosis Pill. Not enough for him to lament.

If you want to take it, you must first give it.

If he wants Yan Xiaolan to be willing to work for him, the temptation of this Jade Flame Pill is indispensable.

In addition, with the Biyan Pill, no matter how stupid Yan Xiaolan is, she will no longer care about the family.

——The value of Yan Xiaolan, in the eyes of the Yan family, is far less than that of Bi Yan Dan.

"Yes, Senior Cui!"

Yan Xiaolan didn't hesitate at all. She gritted her teeth, stepped forward, took the third-level poison pill in Wei Tu's palm, raised her jade neck, and swallowed it in one gulp.

After swallowing, at Wei Tu's signal, she bowed and took the Biyan Dan from Wei Tu's palm.

　I read that Shen Yunqiu is expected to turn into a baby in the last chapter... Some people have doubts...

　　Of course Shen Yunqiu is not only old, but the article is short and it is difficult to describe her opportunities and strengths one by one.
