After getting the Dan Lingzi, Chu Liang went directly to the Bao Dan Hall.

He had already negotiated with several shops to open branches in Hongmian Peak, but there had been no movement over the past few days, so he naturally had to come and ask for details.

It can be seen that when he saw Elder Sun, whom he was familiar with, he had a confused look on his face.

"Young Master Chu, Shu Mountain is far away. It's too difficult to get there from Taotie City." He said slowly.

Chu Liang was silent when he heard this.

Listen to your words, the distance between Shushan Mountain has been discussed by both parties, so there should not be any difficulties.

What the other person really wants to say is the second half of the sentence.

It's too difficult to get through Taotie City.

Could it be that there is some resistance?

Seeing Elder Sun's cryptic look, Chu Liang didn't ask any more questions, but stood up and left. Baodantang was not the only shop that was finalized earlier, and he went to other shops.

As expected, several shops all regretted it.

Although several people in charge were tight-lipped about the reasons behind it, there is no airtight wall in the world. Chu Liang made several insidious inquiries and finally asked for a name.

Hu Yanbin.

This is the name of the young master of Taotie City.

Chu Liang had heard before that although this young master was young, he was quite talented and had already taken charge of many affairs in Taotie City.

Unexpectedly, Shushan was actually involved.

It stands to reason that the market to be built in Hongmian Peak will indeed have similar functions to the Taotie City.

But most people don't think that the two will become competitors.

This is just like Chu Liang and Sword Master Li Laoba becoming competitors now. The huge gap between the two makes this matter sound too outrageous.

Hu Yanbin began to suppress the development of Hongmian Peak at this time. Either the two parties had personal grudges, or he had a far-sighted vision and could see that Shushan would definitely compete with it in the future.

Chu Liang may not have that much confidence in Hongmian Peak.

But if the other party wants to kill a potential competitor, now is indeed the best time. The market in Taotie City is a sea, and Hongmian Peak is just a small pond. As long as he goes to Hongmian Peak, he can't even think about developing in Taotie City.

, then everyone knows how to choose.

After all, businessmen are all driven by profit.

Chu Liang thought for a moment and felt that this was an inevitable obstacle, so he decided to go talk to the other party.

The city lord's mansion in Taotie City is not difficult to find. It is the most magnificent mansion in the city.

So Chu Liang came to the city lord's mansion alone, reported his sect and name, and asked to see the young city lord.

After the concierge reported the matter, a graceful maid immediately led him to a waiting room and asked him to wait here. If the young city lord was free, he would come and ask him to meet him immediately.

There were already two people in the waiting room, one was a middle-aged man with a bitter look on his face, and the other was an old man with gray hair, both of whom were quite silent.

Chu Liang sat quietly on the seat behind them and waited for about half an hour, but no one came to inform who was going to meet.

He stood up and looked around in confusion.

The middle-aged man said: "Don't wait, no one will see you."

Chu Liang turned around and said, "Isn't it my turn after the two of you?"

"After us..." The middle-aged man smiled bitterly, "Then you have to wait. I have been here waiting for seven days."

"Huh?" Chu Liang was slightly surprised and looked at the old man again.

The old man slowly raised his head, cleared his throat and said, "Let me tell you, my father came here to queue a year before I was born, and I took his place."

Chu Liang: "?"

…

Only then did Chu Liang realize that the living room was the place to persuade people to quit.

Even if the demon god had been queuing up here since he entered the demon-suppressing tower, he still wouldn't be able to see the young master of Taotie City.

He immediately stood up and left.

Although I can't think of any way to counter the opponent for a while, it's not that I have to let him show off in order to develop.

It's just that even if you try to strangle him, it would be too overbearing to not even give him a chance to negotiate.

But after all, this is just a competition at the commercial level, and I can't directly win over the master. Then the nature will change, and no one will be willing to cooperate with Shushan in the future.

If you think about it carefully, there may be no potential hostility between Taotie City and Shushan, especially now it is a rather sensitive time... The Fairy Gate Conference is approaching.

Thunder Castle and Taotie City have been somewhat unable to see Shushan in recent years.

In their view, Shushan is just a has-been fairy sect that is resting on its laurels.

The feat of suppressing demon gods and saving the world is indeed worthy of respect, but this has allowed you to be the leaders of the righteous path for more than two thousand years, which is long enough.

The Demon Suppression Tower is gone, which means it’s time for you to abdicate.

Don't block anyone's way, and you can quietly be a well-respected little fairy. If you keep occupying a high position without any ability, the respect you have for your ancestors will be exhausted sooner or later.

The position of Jiutian Immortal Sect is not only a false name that symbolizes glory, but more importantly, it has a very high voice within Kyushu.

On many occasions, many privileges, and the allocation of many top-level resources, only the Nine Heavens Immortal Sect can play together. Only if they are a little bit inferior, will they fall on the Ten Earth Sects.

In recent years, Thunder Castle and Taotie City have been developing very rapidly. They have no room for improvement and can only look at this position with ambition.

In fact, they are very close.

When the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths were set up, the Immortal Sects and the imperial court set up a charter.

One of them is that if the Nine Heavens Immortal Sect falls out of the top ten in the Immortal Sect Conference for five consecutive times, it will withdraw from the Nine Heavens; the Ten Earth Sect falls out of the top twenty in the Ten Earthly Sect for five consecutive years, and it will withdraw from the Ten Earthly Sect.

In the final analysis, the world of immortality is still the jungle law of survival of the fittest, and it is impossible to tolerate truly chewing on one's own achievements.

This regulation is actually not too strict, because the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths are supposed to be strong, and the requirement of the top ten already reserves the possibility for a certain lower-level immortal sect to suddenly emerge in a certain year.

Although there may be some errors in using the competition of young disciples to determine the status of an immortal sect. For example, in an immortal sect, the senior elders may be very strong, but the disciples may be very weak.

However, five consecutive sessions spanned a period of sixty years. If no outstanding disciples were born during this long period of time, then there is absolutely no problem in judging the decline of an immortal sect.

This will also encourage the elders of Nine Heavens and Ten Earths to pay more attention to the training of young disciples, and avoid the situation like the Demon Sect where the senior leaders are selfish and treat the disciples at the bottom as human beings.

Shushan has fallen out of the top ten for four consecutive years.

The last time Shushan was glorious at the Immortal Sect Conference was from the generation of Jiang Tiankuo, Yan Daoren, and Di Nu Feng. The three of them punched for nine days and kicked ten places. They swept all the way to win the championship and became the last glory of Shushan.

After that generation, there will be no outstanding talents in Shushan.

So now there are almost no young talents in Shushan below the peak masters and above the new generation of disciples like Chu Liang and others.

This session of the Immortal Sect Conference is very important.

There are rumors in the world of Immortal Cultivation that this Immortal Sect Conference will be particularly intense.

In previous years, if there was a genius disciple of the fifth level, he would definitely be considered a top expert in the Immortal Sect Conference.

But this year, it seems that many geniuses have broken through to the fifth realm. At least in terms of realm, it has expanded a lot compared to previous years.

"well."

Sitting on Jin Mao's back, Chu Liang also sighed.

This world is too complicated.

You also have to hurry up and push your realm upwards. You can't always expect to cross the border and challenge others.

In fact, the speed of his cultivation in the past year is definitely the best in Kyushu, but it is a pity that his starting foundation is too poor. Even if a row of big-headed dolls go crazy, he is still in the late stage of the Golden Core Realm, which is still far away from the peak of the Fourth Realm.

There are some slight differences.

But fortunately, there is still time.

It was late at night again when he returned to Shushan. He had been running around all the time, and Chu Liang planned to settle down in Yinjian Peak for a while.

From tomorrow onwards, I will be an idle person, gardening flowers, growing fruits, and fighting monsters in the wine jar. Facing Shushan, I will be safe and sound.

But early the next morning, an "uninvited guest" came over.

"Hey, hey, hey!" The visitor landed outside the door of the cabin with a hearty laugh.

Chu Liang opened the door and went out to take a look, and it turned out to be Lin Bei with thick eyebrows and big eyes.

"What's the matter?" he asked aloud.

"Brother, I'm finally about to break through, and I'm going to start preparing the outer elixir right away." Lin Bei smiled proudly: "I'm here to ask for your help."

Good morning.

Sorry to be so late again, I got stuck at a strange point. I spent several hours deleting, deleting, and revising it last night. In the end, I was still not satisfied, so I deleted and rewritten this chapter, and finally I finished it.
