When Liang Yan heard what he said, his heart moved, and he asked: "I heard Li Xiran mention this before, and Liang is also a little curious, which chamber of commerce is in the hands of this bottle of mountain and river holy energy?"
"Palace Master Liang, to be honest, we have never seen this bottle of holy energy of mountains and rivers with our own eyes."
"Oh?" Liang Yan frowned slightly and asked, "Then why did Li Xiran say that there might be holy energy from mountains and rivers appearing in Guangling City?"
"Palace Master Liang doesn't know that the 'Wentai Treasure Fighting Conference' is approaching. All the major chambers of commerce are secretly sending more people to explore the treasures brought by other competitors. There were reports from spies before, saying that someone was carrying a treasure.
The Holy Qi of Pingshan River came to Guangling City to participate in the treasure fight, but I haven't found out which chamber of commerce this person is specifically worshiped by." Qianlong slowly explained.
"What about this person?" Liang Yan heard the key to the problem and asked hurriedly: "Where is this person now who may have carried the holy energy of mountains and rivers?"
"That's the weird thing about it!"
Qianlong replied: "This man only released the news when he was approaching Guangling City, saying that he had the holy energy of mountains and rivers in his body. However, after he entered Guangling City, he disappeared out of thin air. Even though we sent many people,
I don’t know where this person went.”
"This happened!" Liang Yan said in surprise: "Even your Wenxiang Chamber of Commerce couldn't find out. Could it be that this person really disappeared out of thin air? Then what is the purpose of the news that he released the holy energy of mountains and rivers?"
"This matter is indeed somewhat suspicious. This person was able to escape our tracking because he either hid his cultivation or brought an extremely powerful magic weapon. In any case, he is not a simple person."
When Qianlong said this, he paused for a moment and then continued: "But don't worry, Palace Master Liang, we will continue to investigate this matter. Once we get the exact information about the holy energy of mountains and rivers, we will definitely notify you as soon as possible."
After hearing what Gan Long said, Liang Yan smiled slightly, cupped his hands and said, "Thank you so much, Elder Gan! By the way, there are so many monks in Guangling City now. Is there any place where we can exchange information?"
"There is one place."
Qianlong thought for a while and replied: "The Juxian Tower in the north of the city is full of dragons and snakes. Most of the monks who go there are not members of the Chamber of Commerce, but some unknown casual cultivators in Xuanyuan Territory. They come to Guangling City to take advantage of the treasure fight."
During the conference, let’s see if there are any missing trade fairs.”
Liang Yan was not a confused person, and he understood after hearing this. Although the magical powers of the casual cultivators in various regions may not be as strong as those of the sect monks, most of them have a wide range of friends and are well-informed.
After all, they are alone, and if they don't have a few friends, they will be blind and deaf, and they may not even know that a disaster is coming.
Therefore, places like Juxian Tower are generally places where casual cultivators exchange experiences and exchange information.
Wenxiang Chamber of Commerce, as a long-established chamber of commerce participating in the treasure fight this time, would not be embarrassed to go to a place like this to find out information about its opponents. However, Liang Yan was a newbie, so it was most appropriate for him to go to Juxian Tower to find out information.
"In this case, Liang will go to Juxian Tower tomorrow to see if he can find any clues about the holy energy of mountains and rivers." Liang Yan said with a slight smile.
Qianlong also smiled and said: "Palace Master Liang has come a long way and will rest here for a day. Gan will prepare some wine to catch the wind and wash away the dust for Palace Master Liang."
Having said this, he took out another token from the storage ring and handed it to Liang Yan.
"Palace Master Liang, this is the guest token of our Wenxiang Chamber of Commerce. From now on, with this token, you can enter and leave this house at will, and you can also enter some chambers of commerce venues in Guangling City."
"Thank you, Elder Gan."
Liang Yan played with the token and put it into his sleeve.
Immediately afterwards, Qianlong summoned several merchants and guests from the chamber of commerce to hold a banquet in the courtyard to welcome him and entertain him well. It was not until night fell that the guests and hosts had a great time and then dispersed.
Liang Yan returned to his guest room, closed his eyes and meditated on the bed, and waited until noon the next day before slowly opening his eyes.
"The name of Juxian Tower is quite resounding, but I don't know if it is really well-informed and if they can find out what I want." Liang Yan said with a smile to himself.
"That's not easy. I'll beat anyone who doesn't tell me. As long as I beat them down, any secret will be revealed!" Li Xiaosong sat on his shoulder and waved his fist.
"I'll be thankful if you don't cause trouble! There are many masters in Guangling City now, and you are only in the middle stage of the Golden Core. Can you please calm down a little bit?" Liang Yan reached out and gave Li Xiaosong a blast on the head.
Li Xiaosong was in pain, held his head with both hands, and said aggrievedly: "I'm not helping you. Even though I'm only in the middle stage of Jindan, as long as my opponent doesn't have Tongxuan, I, Xiaosong, won't be afraid of him!"
"Then what if he is transformed into a calamity?" Liang Yan glared.
"Then" Li Xiaosong's eyes wandered, and he looked at Liang Yan and said, "Then there is still you!"
Bang!
Another burst of pain, so painful that Li Xiaosong almost screamed.
"No more trouble is allowed this time without my permission!"
Liang Yan's face was sullen, and he felt a little helpless.
Li Xiaosong's personality has gradually changed since he advanced to Jindan. He used to just like to join in the fun and show off, but now he is inexplicably aggressive.
Especially after practicing in Bihai Palace for fifty years and reaching the middle stage of Jindan, her aggressive character became even more obvious. If Liang Yan hadn't been restraining her, she would have caused trouble long ago.
Liang Yan gave Li Xiaosong a lesson, then stood up, opened the door, left the Wenxiang Chamber of Commerce's house, and came to the street.
This time he came out without Li Xiran.
This woman had left the Wenxiang Chamber of Commerce for many years, and she probably had many things to discuss with Qianlong. Liang Yan did not intend to let her follow him, but chose to go out alone.
Juxian Tower is not a remote place. Liang Yan made some inquiries on the streets of Guangling City and found this restaurant smoothly.
What I saw was an emerald jade building with gold edging on the roof and carved beams and painted pillars, which made people feel rich and noble.
Liang Yan walked into the restaurant and found that there were quite a few monks drinking here, either in twos or threes, or drinking by themselves. However, most of them were not high in cultivation. There were only seven monks in the Golden Core Realm, and the rest were only in the Juyuan Realm or Foundation Establishment Stage.
Cultivation.
At this moment, "Eight Divisions of Evolution" was running quietly. Liang Yan did not use his spiritual consciousness. He just moved the tips of his ears slightly. After a while, he had the direction and walked towards a corner of the restaurant.
A banquet was set up there, and there were three people sitting at the table, all of whom were in the middle stage of Jindan cultivation.
One of them was wearing linen clothes, with a square face, a broad nose, and a face as red as a jujube. He was drinking and talking at the same time:
"Two fellow Taoists, after analyzing so much just now, in my opinion, the leader of this 'Wentai Treasure Fighting Conference' must be the Wenxiang Chamber of Commerce!"
"No, no!"
Another old man in soap robe waved his hands and said: "Although the Wenxiang Chamber of Commerce is an old chamber of commerce with a profound foundation, it is not the most powerful one. According to my opinion, the Jialan Chamber of Commerce is stronger than the Wenxiang Chamber of Commerce. This
The leader of this treasure fighting conference must undoubtedly be the Jialan Chamber of Commerce."
"Hmph, why is the Wenxiang Chamber of Commerce not as good as the Jialan Chamber of Commerce? I think you're just taking a peek and making random guesses!" The man from before seemed to be angry and said angrily.
After hearing this, the old man in soap robe did not give him face, rolled his eyes, and said with a smile: "I am making a random guess? Hehe, who doesn't know that when you condensed the golden elixir, you got benefits from the Wenxiang Chamber of Commerce, but also
You don’t have to speak for them in everything, do you?”
The two men were tit for tat, arguing, and after a while they both turned their attention to the third person at the table.
"Fellow Daoist Lu, let me judge. Is the leader this time the Wenxiang Chamber of Commerce or the Jialan Chamber of Commerce?"
The last person was a horse-faced man. He was leisurely tasting wine. After hearing the questions from the other two people, he immediately laughed and said: "The two fellow Taoists are right. Wenxiang Chamber of Commerce and Jialan Chamber of Commerce are both first-class chambers of commerce."
, but haven’t you forgotten something?”
"What's going on?" they both asked at the same time.
"Hey, the 'Wentai Treasure Fighting Conference' is about treasures rather than people! Although the two major chambers of commerce have numerous elites, I heard that a dark horse has appeared in Guangling City called the Jiugong Chamber of Commerce. They have several important treasures in their hands.
Maybe you will stand out in this treasure fighting conference!"
"Nine Palaces Chamber of Commerce?"
The red-faced man and the old man in soap robe were both slightly startled, then shook their heads and said: "Where did this chamber of commerce come from? We have never heard of it. How can it possibly have the strength to compete with the established chamber of commerce?"
"Hey, just because you're not famous doesn't mean you don't have strength. You two don't know something, but I've heard about it."
When the horse-faced man said this, his voice became smaller and smaller, attracting both of them to listen.
Liang Yan was sitting on a wooden table not far away and ordered two side dishes and a bottle of wine. Although the three people did not talk about the holy energy of mountains and rivers, they talked about the major chambers of commerce.
When I got interested, I used "Ba Bu Yan Yuan" to eavesdrop.
At this time, I heard the horse-faced man lower his voice and said: "I heard that the president of the Jiugong Chamber of Commerce has a very good personal relationship with Xuanyuan Potian. In this 'Wentai Treasure Fighting Conference', Xuanyuan Territory will be the home venue. Maybe Xuanyuan Potian will meet
Helping in secret!"
When the red-faced man and the old man in soap robes heard this, they were both slightly startled. After a moment, they laughed at the same time: "Lu Laosan, Lu Laosan, where did you hear these things from? How could a person like the Lord of Xuanyuan City interact with a person like him?
Do you have any friendship with the president of a little-known small chamber of commerce?"
Lu Laosan was laughed at by two people at the same time, and his face looked a little ugly. Just as he was about to say something, he heard the sound of breaking through the air, as if something was flying towards him.
His heart moved, and he hurriedly turned his head to look, only to see a flying knife with murderous intent, but it was not directed towards him, but towards a man in gray clothes at the table next to him.
The man in gray clothes was also calm, still lowering his head to drink, without raising his eyelids. He just lightly tapped his right hand in the air, and a circle of ripples emerged, immediately trapping the flying knives.
"Oh, I can't tell, there are some tricks!"
Outside Juxian Tower, a woman's voice laughed.
After a while, two people walked in one after another. The first one was a beautiful young woman, dressed in pink and wearing a gorgeous headdress, with willow eyebrows and a slim waist. She walked with a lot of charm, attracting the attention of everyone in the restaurant.
Following her was a Taoist priest in black robes, with a yellow face, a sharp mouth, and a vulgar appearance, which was incompatible with the temperament of the beautiful young woman.
"Elder Wen, that's who he is!"
The black-robed Taoist priest pointed at Liang Yan and said angrily: "This junior met a talented person by chance. I wanted to introduce him to my sect and train him to become a pillar of the chamber of commerce. Unexpectedly, I was stepped in by this person and got it."
My apprentice got away!"
"Okay, you don't have to tell me so much!" The beautiful young woman waved her hand and said through the voice: "I just want to ask, can you see clearly, that boy is really the 'Five Thunder Devouring Extreme Body'?"
"It's absolutely true, it can't be wrong!" the black-robed Taoist priest nodded hurriedly.
"Okay, as long as you say this, it will be done!"
The beautiful young woman smiled slightly, looked at Liang Yan again, and said slowly: "I am a gentle person, and I am the elder of the Luowang Chamber of Commerce. Do you know your surname?"
When she spoke, her eyes flickered slightly, as if she had used some secret technique. Her aura instantly increased, and she wanted to find out the origin of Liang Yan's heels.
Unexpectedly, Liang Yan remained motionless and didn't even raise his eyelids. He poured himself a drink and then said calmly: "If you have anything to do, just tell me. As for my name, you don't need to know it."
After hearing this, Wen Chuchu narrowed his eyes slightly, but the smile on his face did not change, and he still said in a pleasant manner: "Since Taoist friend is unwilling to tell me his real name, Chu Chu will not ask more questions. It's just that you came from my department yesterday."
I have snatched his disciples away from you, please return them today."
"apprentice?"
Liang Yan glanced at her, then looked at the black-robed Taoist priest, and sneered: "Do you know the name of that child? Just say she is your disciple? I think you are such a shameless Taoist priest. Could it be that your own skills are too good?"
Oops, I can’t find my apprentice, so I have to rob him on the street?”
"you!"
The black-robed Taoist priest shouted angrily, but the anger in his eyes just flashed away. Thinking of Liang Yan's methods yesterday, he couldn't help but shrink his neck and hide behind Wen Chuchu.
"Elder Wen, don't listen to this man's nonsense. I obviously took a fancy to that kid first and was about to accept him as my disciple, but he snatched him away!"
Wen Chuchu ignored him, just stared at Liang Yan, and said with a smile: "Fellow Taoist, can you give me Luowang Chamber of Commerce a face and return the child to me? As long as you nod and agree, I can give you the VIP order of Luowang Chamber of Commerce.
Brand, within the next hundred years, all major branches of our chamber of commerce will have priority auction rights."
After hearing this, Liang Yan still sat still, only took a sip of the fine wine, and said lightly: "What if I don't agree?"
"Don't agree?"
Wen Chuchu's smile gradually disappeared, and her face gradually turned cold.
"If fellow Taoist refuses to sell this face, Chu Chu will have to use some 'special' means. This is Guangling City, and I don't want to make fellow Taoist look bad. I hope fellow Taoist can be more sensible and take the initiative to hand over this child."
"What a 'special' method, I would like to see it first!"
Liang Yan's expression seemed to be a smile but not a smile. His eyes swept over and looked at Wen Chuchu in the Immortal Juxing Tower. A gleam flashed in his eyes.
