Beauty helps me achieve immortality

After the guests left.

In the courtyard deep in the Jiuhua Blood Palace, only Zhao Qing and the other three were left.

Pang Zhen casually told Zhao Qing, "For the Jian family in Zhongzhou, Jian Ting is still considered a junior in the direct lineage. Once he reaches the Golden Core realm, he should be able to take over some of the family affairs."

"It's quite different from the families in Yongning."

Only those who have reached the Golden Core stage can take over family affairs...

Zhao Qing sighed and said, "In Chu State, those who have reached the Golden Core Realm are already the heads of a clan. When we settled in Songshan in the past, the heads of the Sun and Zheng families were still at the Foundation Establishment stage."

Golden elixir.

I have also reached the door of this realm...

He suppressed the distracting thoughts in his mind, turned his eyes and said to Pang Zhenyan: "I have previously communicated with my senior brother that the Chu Kingdom will establish an immortal dynasty, and those clans still need the support of the Blood God Peak."

"Of course there is nothing wrong with this. How much resources can the State of Chu spend?" Pang Zhen naturally agreed. Not to mention that Zhao Qing was not only a wandering person, but also the son of Yongning Prefecture. It was natural for him to spend a little money.

"When we have more disciples in the future, all the shops in Yongning Prefecture will be ours."

"Originally, Liang Yu was going to return to Liao to become the emperor, but after you became a walking monk, he went straight to Qixia to open a sect and seek pleasure. Now there are plenty of spirit stones in the Blood God Peak."

Meng Xue also smiled sweetly and responded, "How many spirit stones and spirit mines does the Chu clan need every year? When you have time, you can ask them to come to Jiuhua for a gathering. Leave the rest of the trivial matters to me."

Zhao Qing was not surprised by this response.

He smiled at Qing Huan at this moment, and Gu Qing Huan immediately understood and said softly, "Senior Sister, don't worry about these things. Sect Master Chen and Sect Master Qin have already called them together to discuss it."

"This trip is to explain everything to Senior Sister, so that she won't be bothered by these trivial matters and affect her mood."

Pang Zhen sat aside and sipped tea. After listening to Qinghuan's words, a strange smile appeared on his face.

Meng Xue didn't respond to the question about the detailed resources. Instead, she asked with a sweet smile, "Why does Qing Huan seem to have changed?"

Gu Qinghuan had been to the Jingzhe Feast a long time ago, and she had also seen this strange Zhongzhou garrison many times, but she had always been a silent servant...

Qing Huan's phoenix eyes fluttered as she spoke with a light smile, "Qing Huan was never foolish or stupid before, so how can you say she has changed her personality?"

·

The setting sun is like blood.

The huge moving jade boat arrived at the boundless northern desert.

The cold wind howled in my ears, and in the distance a tornado of yellow sand swirled...

Outside that dark world, there is a magnificent and fantastical clan city located in the crystal clear ice valley.

The vast divine consciousness gathered together and evolved into the illusory image of the woman in Taoist robes.

Qin Chuxin faced Zhao Qingqinghuan, Meng Xue and the other two and bowed with a smile, "Hanbing Valley has been waiting for our distinguished guests for a long time."

"Fairy Qin." Zhao Qing responded politely. Qinghuan stayed beside her master and acted like a mute.

Meng Xue's beautiful eyes fixed on the woman's spiritual body, and she nodded and smiled, "It's been a long time since we last met. Fellow Daoist Qin's cultivation has improved again..."

After a while.

In the crystal palace in the deepest part of Zongcheng.

The high ice dome glowed with a faint light, and the smooth cold jade ground was like a mirror.

It was completely different from the strange sight of flying sand just now.

"Aren't you going for a stroll? How come you're here in less than two days?"

Hong Ning's cheerful laughter echoed under the vast ice dome, sounding extremely ethereal and pleasant.

She walked over gracefully, her watery eyes filled with a sly smile. She kept looking Qinghuan up and down, then raised her head and gave Zhao Qingfei a vicious look, as if in a provocation.

Zhao Qing immediately pulled Ning Mei into his arms and said, "I have to come and take you home, right?"

He knew he was in the wrong, and had promised Ning Mei to travel around Chu for a long time, but after becoming a traveler, he took Qing Huan to Tianshui first...

There were cold beds placed everywhere in the ice palace, and several jade tables were filled with cakes and spiritual fruits.

Bai Wanqiu immediately exchanged glances with Su He, and when she looked at Hong Ning again, her eyes were filled with confusion: "Huh!?"

"Didn't you just ask if Zhao Qing had forgotten you here?"

Hong Ning: ???

Faced with this sudden betrayal, she puffed out her cheeks and looked back angrily, then exchanged a smile with her husband before breaking free from his embrace and greeting Meng Xue.

The cold couches and small chairs in the ice palace are built on the ground and arranged in a very messy way, but with a unique beauty.

Zhao Qing brought Qinghuan and Ningmei together.

Qin Chuxin and Meng Xue, the two Yuanying, each occupied a place.

The two guests, Bai Wanqiu and Su He, stayed beside the small table where they had been chatting and laughing.

Zhao Qing felt very uncomfortable about this.

I don't know which idiot designed this, but when multiple people are discussing something, they can't help but talk from a distance of three or five meters...

And this is a Guanyin bureau, with a total of seven people, and I am the only man.

"The furnishings in this ice palace are quite novel, completely different from those formal halls." Meng Xue chuckled and exclaimed in admiration, wondering if she had the same idea.

Qin Chuxin was far away and responded softly, "Chuxin drew these plans himself, using his spiritual consciousness to carve out the strange ice. If Meng Xuezi likes them, Chuxin will draw more plans."

Meng Xue was overjoyed and agreed immediately.

She said that she had practiced in Liao before, and now she was in Chu, and was planning to build a place for her own practice in the Jiuhua Mountains.

Zhao Qing brought Meng Xue to meet Qin Chuxin.

Of course, we are here to discuss matters.

The immortal politics of the Chu clan will come from Si You in the future, and each clan force will be provided with spiritual stone resources by the Blood God Peak. Qing Huan has already told Meng Xue the details.

But it was obvious that the State of Chu had other matters to discuss.

"Should I go to Lanqingji with Master Chen and change the name of Chu State to Siyou State?" Qin Chuxin asked.

Meng Xue also seconded the idea and whispered, "If the name is changed to Si You, it might also be beneficial to the Empress's incense affairs."

Zhao Qing thought intently after hearing this.

Although the logic is correct, but...

He glanced sideways at Ning Mei and smiled, motioning everyone to look at Hong Ning with him.

Ning Mei pursed her lips and smiled, saying briskly, "If you want to change it, change it. What do you want me to do?"

Zhao Qing: ...

He stroked Ning Mei's long black hair, raised his eyes and smiled at Qin Chuxin: "Siyou is so big that it is not limited to a country or a city."

Qin Chuxin immediately understood that Hong Ning was the daughter of the Ziyang Chu family.

The Chu State returned to Si You's hands, which was considered to be the return to orthodoxy.

"It's only been a year since the Lanqingji Secret Realm ended."

"Except for Divine Blade Island, each clan and tribe has a nine-year deadline for the territorial mineral veins they have been allocated."

"Just like Danxia's Nanze in the past, the Longxi of the Seven Killings Palace today, and the Jiangbei of the Murong clan... How should these resources that originally belonged to the clan be disposed of?"

Zhao Qing paused for a moment. He and his aunt had already discussed this. He replied slowly, "Within nine years, all the resources and mineral veins will still belong to the various clans."

"The Siyou Sect's mineral veins will be handed over to the Changsheng Sword Sect to be used for rewards and punishments for political achievements under the Immortal Dynasty. Sect Leader Chen can temporarily allocate them."

"As for the next Lanqing Gathering..."

Zhao Qing stopped talking and turned his gaze to Meng Xue.

Although he now travels around the world, he has never participated in the Lanqingji secret realm in Yongning Prefecture.

When he was practicing in the sect, he was still a young Qigong alchemist and was not worthy of entering the secret realm.

After building his foundation, he left the sect and became a complete independent cultivator. He still did not participate in the Five Cities Secret Realm matter concerning the division of clan resources.

Meng Xue looked back at Zhao Qing, her beautiful eyes narrowed slightly as she pondered for a moment before suggesting, "After nine years, why not follow the example of the Liao Kingdom?"

She glanced at Qin Chuxin again and explained softly, "In the past, the Liao Dynasty's various clans, led by the royal family, did not fight each other, but instead competed for resource mines belonging to other countries."

"When the next Lanqing Gathering opens, Junior Brother, due to his position as a traveler, may not have the time to take care of these trivial matters."

"Senior Brother Pang and I will enter Lanqingji as members of the Chu royal family. It will be more than enough for us to coordinate the large and small clans under the Chu Immortal Dynasty."

Qin Chuxin nodded slightly and whispered, "After the next Lanqing gathering, all the mineral resources in Chu will belong to the Zhou royal family and will be distributed among the Zhou family officials. How about that?"

Zhou family?

Then wouldn’t it all be given to Si You?

Zhao Qing nodded with a smile: "If it's not something important, I won't leave Chu for too long. I will slowly adjust the long-term matters in the future."

"If I really miss Lanqingji, I will just follow the plan just now."

Today, Qin Chuxin and Chen Changsheng can be said to be providing both manpower and effort to the Siyou Sect...

It was really because the Blood God Peak treated the two of them too well - the resources allocated to them each year were determined based on the half-share of the Sixth Blood Son of Yongning Prefecture.

This is far more than the resources that a clan or family can gather.

After Zhao Qingcheng became a walking official, the status of the Blood Robe lineage in Yongning Prefecture also rose rapidly.

Not to mention that in the next ten years, thousands of Blood-Cloaked Disciples will be born.

Once the trading houses of various countries are re-established, many Blood Robe Towers will have garrison officers...

It can be said that 80% of the cultivation resources in the entire Yongning Prefecture will pass through the hands of the Blood Robe.

Zhao Qing's family was busy gathering incense from the State of Chu, and Pang Zhen also extended his hand to the entire Yongning Prefecture.

Don't talk too much.

Many of Yongning's Yujing disciples and the Nine Swords Liyan Fenghuang are independent travelers, and they do not have a Taoist temple in Yongning.

In the past, when there were major events, they would just go to the peaks and seas of Xueyi and Tianxiang...

Now that Blood Clothes is walking out of Yongning, Yongning Blood God Peak may not be able to turn the entire Yongning into Blood Clothes' back garden like Thousand Illusions Endless Peak.

……

The moonlight is cold and gloomy.

A small apricot-yellow boat swayed in the air, as if returning to its hometown along the old road.

Hong Ning steered the apricot boat near Songshanfang and said softly and teasingly, "When you sent me away that year, we arrived at Beimo from here..."

"Who told you to hold it in?" Zhao Qing cursed with a smile, his eyes full of reminiscence.

"whispering sound!"

Ning Mei smiled and gave Qing Huan a look: "It's obvious that you only have eyes for Qing Huan, and you can't see me at all."

Qinghuan's phoenix eyes were smiling, and she naturally understood what Ning'er meant.

When Ning'er often came to hang out at home, the owner was accompanying him to Tianshui to see his sister, and he also asked Ning'er about the White Horse Temple...

But she obviously would not help Hong Ning to squeeze her master.

He just smiled gently without saying anything, and extended his weak spiritual sense to observe the old house which was now in ruins.

Seeing that Qing Huan was not helping her, Hong Ning stopped playing around and said slowly while looking at the ruins covered with weeds and dead trees, "I will go to Qing Rao for shelter then, so I have to leave."

Seeing her uninterested look, Zhao Qing took her in his arms and soothed her, saying with a soothing smile, "Hurry up and find the cat. Si He helped Shu Yue prepare the dinner, so we should go back early."

"The Queen did it!?" Hong Ning still calls Si He "The Queen".

"Ah."

"Why, you don't like it?" Zhao Qing asked softly with a smile.

Ning Mei's watery eyes flickered, her face as beautiful as a flower, and she exclaimed in admiration from the bottom of her heart: "Your Majesty's cooking is the most delicious. I'm so happy! How could I not love it..."

The moonlight is like a veil of smoke, cold and lonely.

Spring in Songshan seems to come earlier than in Tianshui.

The snow on both sides of the long official road had long disappeared, and the small puddles everywhere reflected the quiet moonlight, making it look very quiet.

Zhao Qing and the other two steered the small boat, slowly floating along the official road, searching for any suspicious small animals.

Zhao Qing extended his spiritual sense to search the deep mountains in the southeast, while Hong Ning searched the northwest countryside.

As for Qinghuan... Qinghuan's spiritual sense cannot reach too far.

She looked at this very familiar land and whispered softly, "The friend who mentioned Qing Huan before."

"Except for the time when we were in Tianshui, when the young lady was quite caring towards me... the only time I was closer to Ning'er was when we were in Songshan."

"Ning'er always takes me home to chat and laugh."

Zhao Qing smiled as he looked into her absent-minded eyes. He felt that under the dim moon, Qinghuan's profile was tranquil and beautiful.

I couldn't help but recall the ferocious gunshot that Qing Huan had unleashed at the Sun family on that snowy night...

He chuckled and asked Ning Mei, "When Sect Leader Qin convened the clan for a meeting, did anyone from the Sun and Zheng families go to Mobei?"

Hong Ning had also stayed in Songshan, so she naturally paid attention to these things.

Without hesitation, she said, "The Sun family was wiped out, but someone from the Zheng family did go there. There was also a guest official in blood-stained clothes traveling with the head of the family. His name was Zheng Yan."

"Master Chen also gave Zheng Yan a sword technique, saying that if she wanted, she could go to the Changsheng Sword Sect to practice."

Zheng Yan?

Zhao Qing was a little confused for a moment.

"It's the guest official that the master picked up in the mine." Qinghuan reminded softly.

It’s her…

Zhao Qing said casually: "Nian Ke should be familiar with her. Maybe I can see her in Si You's Blood Clothes Building in the future."

Mentioning the Blood Robe Building, Hong Ning chuckled and quipped, "When I was helping Sect Leader Qin sort out the clan roster, I discovered something interesting."

"Murong Ming, whom we visited back then, has now returned to the Changsheng Sword Sect."

"However, there is a female cultivator in the Murong clan who is in the late stage of Qi training... She seems to be familiar with you."

Murong clan?

"Who?"

Zhao Qing stared at Ning Mei with confusion. He knew that Ning Mei had investigated him thoroughly before, and she even knew who the junior sister living next door was.

But if there is someone I know... Murong...

"I couldn't remember who it was."

A teasing look flashed across Hong Ningshui's eyes. She lightly gathered her sleeves and stepped in front of Zhao Qingzheng.

Zhao Qing and Qing Huan exchanged glances, feeling somewhat anticipatory.

After a moment's hesitation, Hong Ning bowed gracefully, performing a maid's ceremony. She softly and teasingly asked, "Master Zhao Dan has become a Blood Robe servant now, but do you still remember Wan'er from the Blood Robe Tower in Danxia?"

What the hell!

Zhao Qing's eyes froze: "Do you know her?"

Qing Huan also remembered who this person was and whispered with a smile, "So she is a descendant of the Murong clan."

Hong Ning smiled and nodded, leaning forward to embrace Zhao Qing and whispering softly in his ear...

"You don't even go to the Blood Robe Tower when you're traveling, so how can you possibly meet Murong Wan'er?"

"She is now in Siyou Xueyi Tower. I saw her once when I was strolling with Qixiu."

Zhao Qing: ...

"Qixiu also knows her?"

Seeing Zhao Qing's great interest, Hong Ning couldn't help but wonder, "Qi Xiu naturally doesn't know her. Do you really have a past with Wan'er?"

Why not!?

That’s great!

This is the matchmaker between me and my aunt!

At my aunt's wedding banquet...she has to sit at the same table with Bai Wanqiu, I said!

He brushed Qing Huan's willow waist and explained to Ning Mei with a smile, "When Xiao Yi lived alone in Danxia Xueyi, Wan'er was half her maid, serving her by bringing tea and water."

Qinghuan's eyes were filled with relief, as if he had found an old friend again.

"When I first went to the Blood Robe Tower with Master, Wan'er also handed Master a communication jade."

"That's Xiaoyi's communication jade..."
