Cultivating Immortality in a World of Chaos - Chapter 122

[Chapter 121 The Storm is Coming (Subscription Request)]

Mirror Moon Lake.

In the dreamlike spiritual mist, a bright moon shone brightly, it turned out that the Water Moon Array was fully activated.

In the meeting hall.

Fang Xi walked in and found that quite a few people had already arrived.

Mu Zhong, Feng Manlou and others were all there, nodding and greeting him.

“Friend Hua Dao is here too. How rare!”

He was amazed when he saw that the slightly older Hua Chanjuan was also there.

The demise of the Mo family on Black Sand Island had a huge impact on all the forces on Peach Blossom Island.

Even Hua Chanjuan, who had never come down the mountain and was even more of a homebody than him, came for the first time to discuss countermeasures.

“Everyone…”

Ruan Dan, wearing a flaming red dress, stood in front of Ruan Xingling’s former seat and looked down: “Now that we are all here, let’s discuss how to deal with this…”

“Young Island Master, please help me with this.”

A middle-aged man in a blue Taoist robe knelt on the ground, tears streaming down his face.

His name is ‘Mo Qinghe’, from the Qing generation of the Mo family. After the Mo family acquired the Mu family’s spiritual land, he was appointed to the Twin East Peak and served as the head of the local Mo family branch. His cultivation level is at the fifth level of Qi Refining.

Although the main branch of the Mo family was destroyed, many clan members living outside the family were spared.

At this time, he was crying and recounting what happened on Black Sand Island.

Just two days ago, a group of robbers easily broke through the protective formation of Black Sand Island. The leader was the notorious “Silver Armor Demon”!
The head of the Mo family, who was in the late stage of Qi Refining, died on the spot!
A large number of clansmen were killed!

Only a few of the tribesmen managed to escape and bring back news…

Some members of the Mo family were so scared that they never returned. They did not stay in Taohua Island for too long, but fled to more distant islands.

“What should I do?”

The middle-aged Feng Manlou was so anxious that he was sweating coldly. The strength of Baiyu Island was almost the same as that of Heisha Island. If the Silver Armored Demon came again, the Feng family would definitely not be spared.

Even… Peach Blossom Island is even weaker now! There is not even a cultivator in the late stage of Qi Refining!

“Report to the alliance immediately!”

“Someone has already done this. Why not contact Baiyu Island and Jinyan Island, and let the three islands protect each other? Old Monster Jin Ya… No, Old Ancestor Jin Ya has already turned from an enemy to a friend with us…”

…

A group of cultivators in the middle stage of Qi Refining were running around in panic.

“Humph, you are so short-sighted!”

Hua Chanjuan sneered: “Let the wolf in!”

She looked at Ruan Dan: “Where is the island owner? Even if she is out looking for opportunities, and something so big happened… As her apprentice, you must have a way to contact her, right?”

Fang Xi discovered that many of the old monks who had been like headless flies before now showed expressions of relief and were suddenly speechless.

“These cultivators probably wanted to call Ruan Xingling back a long time ago, but they didn’t want to take on the responsibility… If they disrupted the other party’s foundation-building project, they would definitely be hated.”

“Fellow Daoist Hua is a bit of a loner after all. If she was the same as she was back then, she should have thought of this earlier and would not have been pushed out to be used as a tool.”

Ruan Dan listened, his expression unchanged: “I don’t have any way to contact Master either!”

This statement was of course false, but in her opinion, the safety of everyone on Peach Blossom Island was not as important as her master’s foundation building!

After all, spiritual veins are difficult to destroy. Today, the Black Sand Island is just a mess. The robbers will kill people, steal floating wealth, and harvest all the precious spiritual medicines. They will retreat on their own initiative and will not wait for the joint law enforcement team to encircle and suppress them.

If there were any brave Mo family monks, they could go back and announce the rebuilding of the family now…

“What?”

“How could this be?”

Hearing that Ruan Dan, a disciple, was unable to contact his master, even Feng Manlou looked stunned and panicked.

“Don’t worry, everyone!”

Seeing this scene, Ruan Dan sneered: “The robbers will rob Black Sand Island and leave. They will not stay on the nearby islands… I will also report to the Thirty-Six Island Alliance as the acting island owner. The law enforcement team will be here soon, so don’t worry!”

…

Fang Xi walked out of the meeting hall, feeling that coming here today was a mistake.

Everyone was arguing, but in the end no result was reached.

Judging from Ruan Dan’s expression, she was determined not to disturb Ruan Xingling’s foundation building even if it meant sacrificing Peach Blossom Island…

In fact, if Fang Xi puts himself in his shoes, he will think that the other party is right!
As long as the master succeeds in building the foundation, what does a mere Peach Blossom Island mean?
Unfortunately, he is now the one who is to be abandoned!
‘Perhaps the situation is not that bad. The robbers who robbed the Black Sand Island must indeed flee thousands of miles away… But there are two points that are not clear.’

“First, the Silver Armored Demon is a dog raised by the Zhong family. Was this action directed by the higher-ups or was it just a whim?”

‘Secondly, if we just pick an island to rob, Taohua Island is better than Heisha Island, why not Taohua Island?’

“Could it be that the drunkard’s real interest is not in drinking?”

…

“Uncle? I’ll walk with you!”

Not long after, someone caught up with him. It was Mu Zhong!
“Well, let’s go together.”

Fang Xi and Mu Zhong came to the Twin East Peak and looked at the white banner hung by the Mo family branch not far away, and were silent for a moment.

“This world is so unpredictable…”

Mu Zhong walked among the spiritual fields and suddenly sighed: “Back then, the Mo family forcibly took the land, but now it has ended up like this… Haha, evil really pays off!”

In fact, there is no cause and effect in the world of immortal cultivation; it is all just self-consolation.

“This is my family’s two acres of land. I’ve been growing spiritual rice for more than ten years. It’s full of spiritual energy. Maybe I can grow herbs next year…”

“My Mu family only has this little bit of support here. Even if the robbers come, I will fight them to the death!”

As the sun sets, Mu Zhong picks up a handful of soil, holds it tightly in his hand, and sits on the ridge of the field: “What a pity… my nephew has no strength left.”

As soon as he finished speaking, his eyes slowly closed and the dirt in his hands fell to the ground.

This old cultivator from the Mu family eventually died before the disaster came.

“Go with peace of mind…”

Fang Xi is now very sensitive to vitality and knows that this person is indeed dead, and that he has reached the end of his life and died of old age, which is considered a good ending in the world of immortal cultivation.

As for why Mu Zhong came to him and said so many inexplicable things?

It’s nothing more than building relationships, hoping that because of the friendship between the three families in the past, this last lineage can be preserved when something goes wrong.

…

The law enforcement team of the Thirty-Six Islands Alliance arrived quickly. After several flying boats cruised in the nearby area for a while, they announced that the robbers had escaped and everyone continued to live and work in peace.

Then it left the area without taking a cloud with it.

This practice made many monks feel uneasy.

…

Two months later.

Emerald Cliffs.

Fang Xi was sipping tea under the peach tree, with Hai Dagui and Wang Xiaohu standing next to him.

Not long after, Lu Guo walked in with a letter in his hand.

“Master, I asked a few acquaintances in the law enforcement team to inquire, and I have already found out the exact information.”

Lu Guo bowed and said.

“Tell me your conclusion!” Fang Xi sipped his tea with an unchanged expression, but Wang Xiaohu and Hai Dagui felt that the atmosphere around them was inexplicably solemn.

“The joint law enforcement team’s patrol this time was indeed a bit perfunctory!”

Lu Guo took a deep breath and replied: “Moreover, most of them have been withdrawn to Lingkong Market… This is indeed a bit unusual and does not conform to the previous rules.”

“really……”

Fang Xi sighed, and smiled bitterly in his heart:

“Ruan Xingling is truly worthy of being the Peach Bell Fairy for being able to make these two major forces join forces to deal with her…”

Ruan Xingling has been out looking for opportunities to build her foundation for five years, and she can no longer hide it. Now everyone knows what she should know.

The Longyu Zhong family naturally does not want another foundation-building person to appear in the Thirty-Six Islands.

As for the Thirty-Six Islands, I am afraid there are people who do not want to see this scene.

That’s why the ‘Silver Armor Demon’ attacked Black Sand Island!

It is to force Ruan Xingling to come back, delay or even destroy her foundation!

Even Ruan Dan’s assassination may not have been unrelated to this matter!
As for why they didn’t just massacre Peach Blossom Island?

‘Ruan Xingling is a smart and patient girl. Her whole family was wiped out, but she continued to practice in silence outside, and only came back for revenge in the late stage of Qi training.’

“Destroying Peach Blossom Island will only make this girl free of worries, and may even help her build her foundation…”

“If we destroy Black Sand Island first and then put pressure on Peach Blossom Island, things will be different.”

“But I didn’t expect that Ruan Dan would really withstand the pressure and would rather die than let Ruan Xingling return…”

Fang Xi felt that he had already vaguely grasped the context of recent events.

Once you grasp the main thread, things will become easier.

“This matter is most likely being presided over by a few high-ranking people who have reached the Perfect Qi Refining Stage…”

If there were any foundation-building cultivators hiding in secret, or even sneaking into Peach Blossom Island and spying on Emerald Cliff, Fang Xi would definitely sense it!
Because he had already cultivated his divine sense!
Moreover, within the range of the demon tree, his senses were even sharper!

‘The main attack direction is undoubtedly Jingyue Lake! The key target is Ruan Dan!’

If it were an ordinary cultivator, he would definitely start with the easy ones and then move on to the difficult ones. He would first attack the Emerald Cliff, which has a weak defense and is far away from the Mirror Moon Lake, and try to grab some first.

But if you have a plan and a goal, you still have to attack Jingyue Lake!

After all, Fang Xi is just an acquaintance with whom he has a distant relationship, while Ruan Dan is his beloved disciple!

“In this matter, the Zhong family is the main force, and some high-ranking officials in the Thirty-Six Island Alliance are responsible for dragging their feet, such as deliberately creating patrol loopholes to allow the “Silver Armor Demon” to commit crimes! Both sides have a tacit understanding! “

‘Where do I stand?’

‘Save as much as you can, and if it’s impossible, leave immediately!’

‘Why, why do so many people always come to disturb me when I am planting trees?’

“I’ve remembered this time… Anyone who disturbs me from planting trees will die!!!”

The murderous look on Fang Xi’s face flashed away, but it made the three people around him shudder.

He looked at Wang Xiaohu and the others, and said in a deep voice: “The situation has been unstable recently. I will revoke your permission to enter and exit the Small Cloud and Rain Formation on a daily basis. This formation must be activated at full power on weekdays! You should practice more spells and skills to save your life, otherwise when chaos breaks out, it will be too late to regret.”

“Thank you for the reminder, sir.”

Lu Guo’s expression changed, and he vaguely guessed something.

As for Wang Xiaohu and Hai Dagui, they were still confused.

Sometimes, people are happier when they are ignorant.

Fang Xi planned to mention it to Widow Wang when the time came. This female cultivator was surprisingly reliable at critical moments.
