After more than a year of reconstruction, all the kuyin in the Demon City was exhausted and almost all the income of the Demon City over the past year was exhausted. The Demon Valley finally basically returned to its original state. Of course, in addition to more than a hundred guest rooms and the houses of more than twenty Demon Valley disciples who are under construction.
Du Xuan also successfully refined two magic weapons, each with three and four magic tricks, but its power is only comparable to the Huanghan Caiyu, far from Du Xuan's expectations. Therefore, these two magic weapons have not continued to be refined, and are only used as daily practices.
Now that the Demon Valley has entered the regular state, Du Xuan does not need to come forward for a month or two, the others have handled the affairs of the Demon Valley well. This is exactly the same as Du Xuan's wishes and more in line with Gu Wen's thoughts.
In addition, the help of the Demon Cultivation Tower to Du Xuan has become smaller and smaller, and his cultivation has reached a bottleneck, and he has not made much progress in burying his head in cultivation.
Winter goes and spring comes, and summer is already in front of you. Everything is reviving and active again. Du Xuan's heart is also restless and gradually cannot bear the tranquility and comfort of the Demon Valley.
On this day, Du Xuan asked Zhong Nan and the others to come to their house to discuss the matter. This house was completed in Gu Qingshan's original residence. In fact, all other courtyards also follow their original location.
After the servant served the food, Du Xuan sent the servant away and the two disciples of the Demon Valley serving here.
Now that Du Xuan has become the Lord of the Demon Valley, many rules follow the original habits of the Demon Valley, including the disciples who serve the Lord of the Valley and the elders. Of course, Du Xuan will also give advice to these disciples who serve him when he is resting occasionally.
All the idle people left, and Du Xuan used the Golden Bell Formation in the inner hall. Seeing this, everyone knew that Du Xuan must have something important.
"Mingzi." Du Xuan looked at Xie Ming first and asked, "Is there any sign of breakthrough in cultivation?"
Xie Ming shook his head helplessly and said, "Not yet."
"Now that life in the Demon Valley is comfortable and there is no danger, it is even more difficult to break through the cultivation level." Du Xuan did not blame him and said slowly, "So, when you refine pills, you can try to force yourself as much as possible and consume more demonic energy and demonic consciousness."
"Is there anything wrong with this in cultivation?" Xie Ming was stunned and asked in confusion.
Du Xuan chuckled twice and said lightly: "This is just my guess. Brother Nan's last breakthrough in his cultivation and my previous breakthrough in cultivation were all broken after the demon consciousness was on the verge of collapse and life-and-death battle. Therefore, perhaps stimulating the potential of meridians and demon consciousness to the greatest extent will help promote the breakthrough of cultivation as soon as possible."
"Yeah, there is some truth." Zhong Nan nodded and said.
"And." Du Xuan looked at Xie Ming and said, "I'll ask you to pay more attention to how to repair the collapse of the demon consciousness and the atrophy of the meridians. Is there any progress?"
Du Xuan was naturally doing this for Long Wanshan. Among these people, only Xie Ming, who is the master of practicing skills, can only count on Xie Ming.
Xie Ming sighed lightly, looked at Long Wanshan apologetically, and shook his head helplessly, "This is too difficult, I have no idea yet. However, I will not give up."
"It's okay, there is no hope for meridian atrophy." Long Wanshan smiled.
Of course Du Xuan knew this truth, and even Mr. Zeng had no choice, let alone Xie Ming, who was only a great magician's cultivation level.
After a pause, Du Xuan looked at everyone and said, "Over the past year, with everyone's efforts, the Demon Valley has finally become regular, and more and more disciples have returned to its former grand scene. Therefore, I should also give the position of the master of the valley to go out and explore."
"Jie Xian?"
"Go out and go out?"
Everyone was shocked.
"Xuanzi, let's go to the Kongtong Mountains again?" Zhong Nan asked, with no joy or sorrow on his face.
"Haha! Okay, I'm suffocating in this Demon Valley." Gu Jinxuan said happily with a smile.
Xie Ming frowned slightly and asked, "Who do you want to give the Valley Lord to? Gu Wen?"
Du Xuan first glanced at Zhong Nan, then looked at Xie Ming and asked, "You have assisted Gu Wen for so long, what do you think of Gu Wen as a person? Can you be the master of the valley?"
"This..." Xie Ming thought for a while, and said, "Elder Gu is highly respected in the Demon Valley. Now it seems that he is a suitable candidate."
Long Wanshan looked at Xie Ming, but he stopped talking, but he still said nothing.
"Since you said that, I'm relieved." Du Xuan nodded and smiled.
At this time, Zhong Nan said, "Xuanzi, I think Gu Wen still needs to consider this person."
"Oh? Why did you say this?" Du Xuan asked.
Zhong Nan paused and said, "I found that Gu Wen had been the city lord in the Demon City for several years, and there were many unknown accounts, and Kuyin was more than the number we took over at that time. Over the past year, many merchants in the Demon City have bribed me. In their words, it seemed that the last city lord, Gu Wen, had been close to them in the past."
"I suspect Gu Wen has also gained a lot of benefits from this reconstruction of the Demon Valley. Moreover, this person is good at forming cliques. When we first arrived at the Demon Capital, if you weren't too strong, you might have caused something. Therefore, this kind of profit-oriented villain cannot be regarded as the important task of the Demon Valley Master."
As Zhong Nan said, although Du Xuan did not know that Gu Wen had profit from it, he knew that he had the intention of forming cliques and plotting against him. Therefore, Du Xuan asked them to come together to discuss it in order to listen to their ideas and then make a decision.
"Xuanzi." Long Wanshan thought for a while and said, "Even if you want to go out and make a fortune, you don't need to give up the position of the Valley Master immediately. You can take advantage of this time and make good considerations."
"Yes! Wanshan makes sense." Yuchi Lanhua finally spoke, "Now, except for you, the only ones who can take on the position of the Valley Master are Gu Wen and Brother Nan. Brother Nan is your brother. If you force him to be virtuous, it will naturally be difficult to convince the public. Moreover, Brother Nan must want to follow you. If you give it to Gu Wen, it may be detrimental to the Demon Valley. Even if you regret it in the future, it will be useless."
"So, why not do what Wanshan said, and we will still go out and leave the affairs of the valley to Gu Wen, so that Wanshan will secretly supervise it. If Gu Wen did not have the intention of making personal gain while in charge of the valley, it would be fine. If it is inappropriate, you can still destroy him at any time."
"Yes! This method is very good." Zhong Nan immediately agreed.
Du Xuan nodded slightly while listening. After thinking for a moment, he looked at Zhong Nan and Xie Ming and the others with a smile and said, "This matter is done like this. However, you don't have to go out this time, and the Demon Valley still needs you."
"Why don't you let us go?" Before Du Xuan finished speaking, Zhong Nan was the first to frown and asked.
Yuchi Lanhua also looked confused and asked, "That's right, why do you want to go alone? I think we are dragging you down?"
"At least I'll have to go with you, otherwise someone will heal you." Xie Ming said.
Du Xuan shook his head and smiled, "This time, I'm the only one. I run fast and won't be injured so easily. There are so many things in the Demon Valley, so how can you be missing? Besides, if all of them are gone, it's definitely not OK for Brother Long to have no one to take care of him in the Demon Valley. By the way, you can also supervise Gu Wen to prevent him from doing things that are unfavorable to Demon Valley."
"Brother Nan, Miss Yuchi." Du Xuan looked at the two of them and continued, "You two have married, and you are still following me to do anything. Just live a good life in the Demon City. It is best to have a boy as soon as possible to cultivate. As for Mingzi, it is meaningless to follow me out. Practice in the Demon Cultivation Tower, break through your cultivation as soon as possible, and become the elder of the Demon Valley as soon as possible, and then bring your father to the Demon City to enjoy your happiness."
"And Jinxuan, your cultivation is still too poor, you have to step up your cultivation. Besides, if Miss Yuchi is pregnant in the future, you still need to protect the safety of the Demon Valley." Du Xuan said to Gu Jinxuan with a sad face pouting.
Gu Jinxuan was about to follow Du Xuan to go to Kongtong Mountains to experience it, but Du Xuan said it first, especially the saying "The cultivation level is too poor", which really left her speechless.
Du Xuan said something very reasonable, and everyone was silent.
Zhong Nan and Yuchi Orchid should indeed settle down and enjoy life well, without any more fatigue and risking. Xie Ming returned to the Demon Valley, and his mind changed a little. His father had long become a free person and a guest of honor for that family, so he could naturally come to the Demon City to spend his old age. More importantly, Du Xuan did not let Gu Jinxuan go with him, but he gave Xie Ming a great opportunity.
Du Xuan arranged everything, so the supper was naturally performed by everyone.
The next day.
Du Xuan summoned Gu Wen and all the disciples in charge of the Demon Valley to discuss matters in the newly completed Demon Palace Hall. In the past six months, Du Xuan rarely came here to participate in the Demon Valley affairs. This is the first time today.
"Everyone." Du Xuan sat high in the main seat and looked around everyone. "More than a year ago, my Demon Valley was attacked by the enemy and the valley was burned. Now, with your joint efforts, my Demon Valley has finally been rebuilt, and there are more and more disciples in the valley. You have made great contributions to all this, and you will definitely remember and be grateful to future generations in the future."
After a pause, Du Xuan continued, "From today, I will go out to practice in seclusion, from a few months to a few years. Therefore, the affairs in the valley need to be bothered. During the period when I am not in the valley, all the affairs in the valley are decided by the two elders, and you will cooperate with each other. Everything is based on the overall situation of my Demon Valley, and the main focus is on the Great Demon Valley and the Demon Cultivation."
"Master of the Valley, the Demon Valley has just started. How can you do without you taking charge of the overall situation?" Gu Wen bowed with a worried look on his face.
Du Xuan waved his hand and chuckled, "During this period, Elder Gu and Elder Zhong were mostly dealing with the affairs of the valley. I, the valley master, didn't care much. As long as everyone works together and puts the Demon Valley first, it doesn't matter whether I am here or not."
After a few brief explanations, Du Xuan sent everyone away and left Gu Wen alone.
For Gu Wen, Du Xuan must rely on his seniority in Demon Valley. Whether it is the reconstruction of Demon Valley or the dealings with other families, Zhong Nan and the others are not good at, and Gu Wen handles these more appropriately.
Therefore, before leaving, Du Xuan instructed Gu Wen to manage the Demon Valley well, carry forward the Demon Valley, and regain the grand occasion of the past. Of course, it is inevitable to imply that Gu Wen will resign from the Valley Master and return to Du Mansion when he comes back in seclusion.
In just half an hour, Du Xuan walked out of the Demon Palace Hall and, under the gaze of everyone, stepped on the wild Ruyi Shuttle and flew towards the Kongtong Mountains.
