Immortal Mansion: With mediocre qualifications, I have no choice but to live forever

"really."

Liu Qingyun didn't seem surprised by the Shadow Guard's answer.

He sighed softly, a look of disappointment flashing in his eyes.

"That Zhou Yiqiao is very powerful. It is said that he is also a core disciple of the Netherworld Demon Sect. It will not be easy to defeat him."

Liu Qingyun said slowly, with a trace of helplessness in his tone.

When the shadow guard heard this, he lowered his head and said nothing.

He knew that the reason why Liu Qingyun had such high hopes for this competition was that he hoped to take this opportunity to suppress the arrogance of the Nether Demon Sect.

More importantly, it is to fulfill the expectations of some people inside Qinjian Villa.

Unfortunately, it seems that the reality now is not satisfactory.

"However, there may not be no chance."

Liu Qingyun suddenly changed the topic, and a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes.

Suddenly a red pill appeared in his hand.

The Danwan was fiery red in color, and its surface was decorated with fine cracks, as if it had been torn apart by something. It looked extremely strange.

"After taking this Fire Spirit Barrier-Breaking Pill, the monk's combat power can be tripled in a short period of time, making him truly invincible at the same level."

Liu Qingyun said lightly with a smile on his lips.

His face showed a look of wisdom, as if he had everything under control.

Upon hearing this, Shadow Guard's pupils shrank suddenly and he took a breath of cold air.

The Huoling Barrier-Breaking Pill is powerful, but the side effects of taking it are also extremely terrifying. It can range from a regression in cultivation to a serious damage to the foundation, making it difficult to make any progress from now on.

Liu Qingyun was actually willing to take out the Fire Spirit Barrier-Breaking Pill, obviously he had planned everything long ago.

He raised his head, looked at Liu Qingyun with complicated eyes, and couldn't help but say.

"Palace Master, logically speaking, subordinates should not interfere."

"But for the sake of a proton from the Nether Demon Sect, is it really worth it for the disciples of the Holy Sect to completely cut off their path to immortality?"

Liu Qingyun frowned slightly when he heard this.

He took a deep look at the shadow guard and seemed a little dissatisfied with the other party's question.

“Whether it’s worthwhile to do your own thing is not something you can judge at will.”

Liu Qingyun said lightly.

"Some things, even if you know they are wrong, you still have to do."

"As for that disciple's future...it's just a necessary sacrifice."

Liu Qingyun narrowed his eyes slightly, and in a few words, he decided the fate of a disciple with a bright future.

"After that team arrives at Tiangang City, they will give this pill to the disciples in their team who decide to compete on stage."

"Speak to him clearly about your interests, and I'm sure he won't refuse."

Liu Qingyun said slowly, without any fluctuation on his face, as if he was talking about an ordinary little thing.

The shadow guard was silent for a moment, and finally nodded.

He knew very well that he could not change the decision made by Liu Qingyun, and he was powerless to change it.

As a shadow guard, his own destiny is in the hands of Qinjian Villa, so where can he find the ability to help others?

......

Asking about the side room of Jian Mansion, Qijian hurriedly returned with the latest news he had found out.

"Master, now almost all the young monks within a few thousand miles of Tiangang City know about this competition."

There was a bit of urgency in Qijian's tone.

The name Zhou Yiqiao seemed to spread throughout Tiangang City and hundreds of immortal cultivating forces around Tiangang City overnight.

Even a stupid person knows that there must be Qinjian Villa’s promotion behind this.

"Oh? So fast?"

Zhou Yiqiao poured a cup of tea for Qijian, raised his eyebrows slightly, and showed a look of surprise.

Originally, he thought that Qinjian Villa just wanted to give him a show of strength, but now it seems that this battle is also related to a greater conflict of interests.

"Where are the two elders?"

Zhou Yiqiao pushed the tea cup in front of Qijian and asked curiously.

"The two of them left Tiangang City early this morning on the pretext of looking for old friends and disappeared without a trace."

Qi Jian took the teacup, hesitated for a moment, and began to explain.

"interesting."

"It seems that the two elders are well aware of the interests at stake behind this competition..."

Zhou Yiqiao tapped his fingers on the table, making a regular clicking sound.

In his mind, he had already vaguely guessed some of the reasons.

The reason why the two elders chose to leave at this juncture was simply to clear their relationship and avoid being involved in the whirlpool behind the competition because of this competition.

"That's all, let's not mention this for now."

Zhou Yiqiao raised his eyes and looked at Seven Swords.

"Since Qinjian Villa is so grand, they must think that this competition is certain to win."

"It's easy to resolve the crisis in this competition, as long as I can defeat the Qinjian Villa disciple who came up to compete against me."

"Go and help me collect all the information about the team members who are carrying out the sect's mission nearby, as Liu Qingyun said. I want to study it carefully."

"Yes, Master."

Upon hearing this, Qijian bowed and left without any hesitation before drinking the spiritual tea in his hand.

Zhou Yiqiao looked at the mist still rising on the tea cup and fell into deep thought.

......

a few days later.

Tiangang City, on Wuyang Street opposite the city gate, a group of young men and women dressed almost identically came in.

These people were the same team that surrounded and suppressed the God-Transforming Tiger Demon a few days ago.

"It's been a long time, but Tiangang City has become so lively?"

The only female nun in the team was named Bai Ling. She had a beautiful appearance and an outstanding temperament. She looked at the bustling pedestrians around and said with some surprise.

"It's not because of that competition that all the monks near Tiangang City came here because they wanted to witness the glory of our Holy Sect disciples."

A burly male cultivator next to him said, his eyes scanning the crowd, observing every unfamiliar face.

"Humph!"

Bai Lingqiong wrinkled her nose slightly and snorted dissatisfied.

"Why are you here because of its reputation? I think most of them are here to see the Netherworld Demon Sect's jokes."

"After all, that Zhou Yiqiao is just a discarded son of the Demon Sect. There is no suspense in competing with disciples of our Holy Sect."

"makes sense."

The burly male cultivator nodded in agreement, and the other team members also agreed.

In their view, this fight with Zhou Yiqiao was just a footnote when performing the sect's mission, and they didn't take it too seriously.

"Don't underestimate your opponent."

At this time, the young man who led the team finally spoke.

His face was cold and serious, and his eyes were as sharp as blades.

"I heard that Zhou Yiqiao is quite popular in the sect, and he has outstanding talent and strength."

"Although he was thrown to Central Continent by the Demon Sect this time, there is no guarantee that the higher-ups of the Demon Sect will not give him self-defense treasures. If we underestimate him, we may capsize in the gutter."

"Yes, Captain."

The young man's prestige in the team was extremely high. When the four of them heard this, they all suppressed the smiles on their faces.
