chapter 232

This matter was just a high-speed growth period in the normal development of Guiling City; the long-term environment remains stable.

As for the [Ancient Ruins - Eastern Extremes Capital], due to the exploration craze of the last time having passed, after recuperation, the Red Kite Cultivators once again regained their enthusiasm for this Ruins.

Especially after the news of special materials such as Corpse Wraiths, Corpse Demons, and Six-Eyed Corpse Infants spread, it attracted a batch of Corpse Dao Cultivators, and even disciples from the Celestial Corpse Peak of the Inverse Spirit Blood Sect came over.

Even if they couldn't obtain this fortuitous encounter, just the ordinary ancient corpses preserved from ancient times are beyond ordinary Corpse Refinement Material, and it is worthwhile for Qi Condensation Cultivators to capture them for cultivation.

This made Wang Yu's Immortal Abode Rental business officially explode in popularity.

Spirit Stones came in with a crash.

Wang Yu's little trick was naturally known by Luo Chen, but just as he thought, although the other party was annoyed, he did not leave San Mao City again.

Having tasted the sweetness of seizing other people's property, how could he bear the dozens of Spirit Stones he normally harvested every year? In fact, this amount is not small.

San Mao City is rich in Talisman Paper, Talismans, and Talisman Masters, and is definitely considered a high-quality asset, a level higher than Guiling City, which had nothing.

Luo Chen was not satisfied, besides the fact that he was a Core Formation Cultivator and his consumption was extremely high, his Cultivation of the Path of Talismans also cost a lot of Spirit Stones, unlike Wang Yu, whose Art of Alchemy relied entirely on Storage Slots.

He would personally refine pills after they reached Perfection, and the learning consumption was almost zero.

It was a completely blood-earning skill.

If you want to possess Combat Strength far surpassing those of the same Cultivation Realm, the resources consumed will naturally be more than theirs. San Mao City can satisfy Luo Chen's normal Cultivation, but cannot support his extravagant Cultivation.

As time passed, San Mao City fell into dire straits.

Another autumn arrived.

An old friend of Wang Yu, an old acquaintance, arrived from the Mountain Gate of the Inverse Spirit Blood Sect with a team, it was Inner Sect Gu Zhengshun of Celestial Corpse Peak.

He was not the Team Leader, but followed a Celestial Corpse True Disciple who had arrived. After many years, Gu Zhengshun had also broken through to the Foundation Establishment Stage, and was currently at the Second Layer Foundation Establishment Stage.

This Celestial Corpse True Disciple was not True Inheritor Jiang, whom Wang Yu had dealt with, but one of the ten True Disciples of Celestial Corpse Peak of this session. Because his Natal Corpse was devoured by someone surnamed Jiang at the .

He was defeated in the Nascent Soul Inheritance Competition.

After recuperating for many years, relying on his background and his own foundation, after breaking through to the First Layer Core Formation Stage, according to tradition, he left the Sect to Guard a Territory.

Coincidentally, he heard that Top-Grade Materials had appeared in the [Ancient Ruins - Eastern Extremes Capital], and coupled with the fact that You Province compensated Cloud Ridge State with nine cities, this True Disciple took the initiative to request one.

This is why he came to Wang Yu's Guiling City to Settle Down. As for the reason why Gu Zhengshun followed, it is not yet known, perhaps we can ask later.

And by the way, learn about the latest news from within the Sect Gate.

Gui Ling Council Hall.

Wang Yu arranged the seats for everyone and then took the lead in speaking.

"I wonder what this Celestial Corpse Peak True Disciple is called?"

"Law Enforcement Overseer Wang… City Lord Wang, since we are Fellow Disciples, we should address each other as Fellow Disciples (Brothers). My name is Wei Hao, you can call me Senior Brother Wei, how about it?"

"Of course."

The other party is at least Core Formation, and respect for Cultivation Realm is a hierarchical concept engraved in the bones of Cultivators. Addressing each other as Fellow Disciples (Brothers) is already a way of giving face.

If he held a position in the Sect, such as Wang Yu's Inner Sect Law Enforcement Overseer, he could also be addressed by his position, but it would be more distant.

This Wei Hao doesn't look very old, but in reality, he is already one hundred and sixty or seventy years old. In the eight hundred years of Core Formation lifespan, he is still in his youth. His appearance is quite delicate and pretty, looking gentle and weak.

If it weren't for a hint of Yin and melancholy aura between his eyebrows, which ruined the overall temperament, he would still easily give people a good impression.

But that's also true.

Having lost the True Inheritor Competition for thirty or forty years, and even his Natal Corpse is gone, it would be strange if he was in a good Mood. Maybe it has even accumulated into a Mental Knot.

But… surname Wei? He remembered Ding Ming saying that the Wei Family specializes in producing smart people, and their Faction in the Inverse Spirit Blood Sect is not small. In the past, he only regarded them as a Golden Core Family.

But if there can be True Disciple disciples in both Peaks, it might be a Nascent Soul Family, just not as good as the Zhuo Clan, which has multiple Nascent Souls, maybe only one or two.

Wang Yu's Deepest Heart stirred: "I wonder what is Senior Brother Wei Hao's Relationship with Wei Shanze?"

Wei Hao was also stunned when he suddenly heard Wei Shanze's name, but quickly reacted.

"Wei Shanze and I are of the same Family Clan, but the Bloodline is relatively distant. I heard some years ago that he came to Eastern Extremity Capital, presumably he met Junior Brother Wang."

"Oh—is that what he said?"

"Could it be that something else happened?"

"No, nothing."

Person Wang lowered his head and drank tea, laughing in his Deepest Heart. That guy is probably too afraid to say that half of his Family Fortune was blackmailed by him. The in his hand that can save lives came from Wei Shanze.

It is said that as long as there is still a breath left, it can be saved.

"By the way, since Senior Brother Wei Hao is here to take office, do you know which of the nine cities compensated by Yellow Springs Temple are, what is the situation, and which one did Brother Wei choose…"

Wei Hao also smiled relaxedly when he heard Wang Yu's question.

"Thanks to you, otherwise Wei would not have been able to get such a big Cheap deal. Zhengshun, bring the Map."

Gu Zhengshun was sitting next to Wei Hao. Seeing the appearance of Wang Yu and Wei Hao talking and laughing, his Mood was very complicated. Back then in Mysterious Bone Mountain, this person was still an Outer Sect Disciple.

Even his Identity was not as good as his, but now he is the City Lord of a Tier 3 Spirit Vein City, and his Cultivation Level is also so profound that he cannot see through it. This difference in Fortuitous Encounter is really sighing.

He couldn't help but think, if he had maintained a friendly Relationship with Wang Yu in Mysterious Bone Mountain, and had not helped True Inheritor Jiang with his affairs after returning to the Sect, perhaps he could say a few words now.

"Zhengshun?"

"Oh, coming——"

Returning to his senses from his memories, Gu Zhengshun quickly spread out the Map. Wei Hao said upon seeing this.

"This guy has been absent-minded since he arrived in Guiling City, making Junior Brother Wang laugh."

"Not at all, it should be because he saw Person Wang and is a bit emotional."

"Oh? You know each other."

"Naturally."

Wang Yu waved his hand towards Gu Zhengshun, signaling him to sit closer. He didn't have any opinions on Gu Zhengshun, and he could be considered an acquaintance to some extent.

Except for that time in Mysterious Bone Mountain, he was really angry.

Later, helping True Inheritor Jiang to pass messages in the Sect was completely irrelevant, after all, he obtained the rare [Ghost Domain Wailing Bamboo], which was somewhat of a Fortuitous Encounter.

"City Lord Wang… do you have something to ask me?"

"There are some things, let's talk after I finish chatting with Brother Wei."

"...Okay."

Wei Hao did not ask any more questions when he saw this, but spread out the map and said.

"Junior Brother Wang, this is Guiling, and this is the Ancient Eastern Extremity Capital Ruins.

"You Province ceded a crescent-shaped Territory, on which there are nine cities in total, and the one Brother Wei chose is the bottommost one—[Wang Long City]!"

Wang Yu observed carefully, and was surprised to find that the nine cities just completely surrounded the east side of 'Eastern Extremity Capital', and Guiling City was on the west side of the Ruins.

It is diagonally opposite to Wang Long City, and the distance is only about five thousand miles, which is not far.

Yellow Springs Temple's method of ceding is really frowning.

Because it looks like they have completely given the Ancient Ruins to Cloud Ridge State, and the New Nine Cities have Became the outermost defense line in the east of Cloud Ridge!

What is this about?

Seeing Wang Yu's incomprehension, Wei Hao took out another Map, but it was a Sea Chart, which made him even more stunned, because his understanding of the sea area was close to zero.

Wei Hao said: "Junior Brother, please see, the Chaotic Ancient Sea is divided into four banks: east, south, west, and north. The West Bank is Occupied by the people of Great Lake, and the South Bank is divided by Thunder Fire Temple, Joyous Union Sect, and Nether Mountain Sect.

"This East Bank is Saint Sect and Yellow Springs Temple. In order to obtain this crescent Territory, Saint Sect made a Concession on its Territory on the sea. This is a Mineral Deposit called [Deep Sea Sunken Silver], which has Already been given to Yellow Springs Temple."

Wang Yu: "..."

Person Wang opened his mouth to speak, but stopped again… he knew that place, Golden Abundance Pavilion had just bought it not long ago.

Damn it! Inverse Spirit Blood Sect is really shrewd, waiting for Yellow Springs Temple to discover, I'm afraid they will be furious! But whether the ceded Territory can be defended depends on whether these new City Lords are okay.

Moreover, Wei Hao doesn't seem to know about this matter.

Seeing the strangeness in Wang Yu's Expression, Wei Hao waved his hand to dismiss everyone, and his Expression Became much more solemn.

"It seems that Junior Brother Wang knows some of the Inside Story. Brother Wei was right to come here. I wonder if you can tell Brother Wei."

Since Ding Ming recognized him as a smart person, Wang Yu thought about it and decided to sell Wei Hao a Favor, considering that he is so polite…

"Since the words have been spoken to this point, then Person Wang will not hide it from Brother Wei. The Value of this Mineral Deposit is no less than several Cities, and it is Very Likely to have Rank 4 Spirit Object, and it has been bought by Golden Abundance Pavilion."

Wei Hao's brows were Tightly Locked, and the Yin and melancholy aura in his eyes became even stronger.

"I knew how someone surnamed Jiang pointed out the way for me, it really is a road to death! He really deserves to die——"

Hearing This, Wang Yu was even more unable to understand.

"Then you just believed him like that?!?"

Wei Hao smiled bitterly.

"Junior Brother Wang has never been a True Disciple, so he doesn't understand the Unspoken Rule between True Disciple disciples. The Competition of Celestial Corpse Peak is special among the Nine Peaks, after all, sacrifice nine out of ten.

"These types of Rules, if you are from Grassroots Origin, you can ignore them, but for a Family like Wei's, you have to obey them.

"Although Wang Long City is dangerous, it is a blessing in disguise, and it may not be a way out. Thank you Junior Brother Wang for your Guidance on this matter. I wonder if you can tell me more detailed Intelligence about this area."

"I can."

Since he has sold a Favor, Wang Yu may as well sell a little more.

Wei Hao came to Guiling, indicating that the new City Lords of the other eight cities will also pass through his place. Those with clear thinking and quick minds are estimated to come to his place.

Hostile ones… are not necessarily, it still depends on the person.

"When Brother Wei arrives at Wang Long City, you can contact Person Wang more often, and we can cooperate on anything face-to-face."

"That's natural."

The two chatted for a while, and Wei Hao then proposed to leave. He originally wanted to live in Guiling City for a few days, but after getting this news, it would be best to rush to Wang Long City as soon as possible.

The people belonging to Yellow Springs Temple in the Inner City need to be cleared as soon as possible, including all Hidden Agents. This matter requires extremely fast speed, otherwise, it will be too late when the Mineral Deposit incident occurs.

This may be the Inverse Spirit Blood Sect's real counterattack against Yellow Springs Temple's offense, and they are really not afraid of fighting.

Gu Zhengshun stayed behind, and after talking with Wang Yu for a while, he chased after Wei Hao and left together.

The content of the conversation between the two was not much.

But it also allowed Wang Yu to know a lot of new Intelligence. Yan Ling, True Disciple of Frigid Blood Peak, has Core Formation, and has officially Became the Disciple of the Mountain Lord of Cold Blood Peak.

Wei Chong disappeared in the Blood Abyss. Su Yu Long exited Seclusion from the Elephant Mountain Duan Clan and has also achieved Core Formation. After the Confinement punishment ended, it is said that he just Returned to Frigid Blood Peak.

"It's an eventful autumn~"
