Regarding True Immortal San Shi's question, Qu Jianlei did not avoid it, but did not intend to say more, "I have a way to quickly travel between the two states."
He went straight to the topic, "I have something to do now. I want to trouble Five Friends Alliance's friend. Please put a reward..."
"We really want to know how Red Leaf Ridge offended Art Academy, and who is Art Academy specifically responsible for this matter?"
"Art Academy..." True Immortal San Shi was obviously a little confused. He blinked his eyes before coming back to his senses, "Did you buy a piece of Stone?"
Qu Jianlei was a little surprised when he saw his reaction, "Has this news spread so widely?"
"No," True Immortal San Shi shook his head and spoke seriously, "Recently, a friend said that Art Academy offered a reward to anyone who bought Stone..."
Art Academy is one of Four Sages Mountain, and he rarely interacts with ordinary cultivators.
Four Sages Mountain are all self-contained, but Art Academy is especially so. It can be said to be the most geeky among Four Sages Mountain.
Like Book Pavilion is already considered a homebody, but there is still a saying that he should put into practice - read thousands of books and travel thousands of miles.
But people like Art Academy are basically research madmen who immerse themselves in their own magic world and never come out.
Therefore, it is very rare for the Art Academy to issue a reward, and Five Friends Alliance also received the news.
Normally, when the superior Art Academy offers a bounty, most forces will flock to him and take the opportunity to make friends with him.
However, the current development of the Five Friends Alliance has focused on commercial operations, and the related interests and risks will often be considered.
When they learned that there were at least three Nascent Soul Realm in the group of people they were looking for, they basically gave up on this idea.
Art Academy's favorability is of course important, but how high the favorability will be is very uncertain, after all, they have paid a bounty.
And because it's just for asking around, the reward isn't that big, so it's really pointless to provoke such a force for this.
Qu Jianlei said with a dark face, "So, who passed the news to the Five Friends Alliance?"
"I have to go back and ask about this," True Immortal San Shi replied, "I just heard that."
Then he asked curiously, "Ridge Lord Qu, are you planning to challenge Art Academy?"
"No challenge," Qu Jianlei replied in a deep voice, "I just want to ask, what did we do wrong that he wants to offer a reward?"
This is also equivalent to a challenge... True Immortal San Shi secretly muttered in his heart.
But he still doesn't want the other party to conflict with the Art Academy. No matter how strong you Red Leaf Ridge is, can you be stronger than Four Sages Mountain? "Ridge Lord Qu, listen to me, the bounty is not necessarily malicious... Maybe they came to you to discuss something."
Qu Jianlei glanced at him, thought about it and nodded slowly, "Okay, I'll remember it, thank you for reminding me."
Three days after True Immortal San Shi returned, the Five Friends Alliance boss True Immortal Yongheng came to the manor.
He had already investigated clearly, and the reason why he spent three days was to find the source of the reward.
That is Nascent Soul Realm named Heavenly Expanse, who mostly works in Xinhua City.
This person is the grandfather-in-law of Xinhua City Lord. One of his granddaughters became the concubine of the city lord, and she was very favored.
The city lord is also Nascent Soul Realm, who is much older than Heavenly Expanse, but this phenomenon is not uncommon among high-level cultivators.
Tianyu True Immortal does not rely on the City Lord's Mansion to make a living, but with the financial support of the city lord, he does not need to deliberately run anything.
This person has a wide network of contacts and is generous with his actions. It is said that he also has quite a friendship with the Art Academy.
Shortly after the last Xiangyuan City exchange meeting, this news came out from this person's mouth.
In addition, Five Friends Alliance also found out that Golden Core Realm, who sold Stone, was imprisoned on charges of stealing other people's property.
According to Tianyu True Immortal in private, that piece of Stone is not the only stolen property, there are a considerable number of treasures that are still missing.
It was precisely because of these unknown treasures that Heavenly Expanse issued a reward.
He was mainly targeting True Immortal who was furious with Flesh Puppet, and by the way, he offered a reward to those who bought Stone.
Qu Jianlei pondered for a moment and asked, "Has this Tianyu True Immortal... been to Mangdang Mountain?"
He gets along pretty well with Jun Wuji. Now that he can be found out, will that guy be okay? "Mangdang Mountain... Rogue cultivator?" True Immortal Yongheng was stunned at first, then raised his hand and started calculating naturally.
After pinching a few times, he frowned slightly, took the initiative to stop the calculation, and then looked at Qu Jianlei, "Mangdang Mountain also has cause and effect?"
"You..." Qu Jianlei said in a dumbfounded voice, "You don't care about the backlash at all?"
"Just a casual cultivator," True Immortal Yongheng replied nonchalantly, and then asked curiously, "Who is...Jun Wuji?"
Qu Jianlei blinked, then extended a thumbs up, "Fellow Daoist is really amazing!"
"What's so hard to guess?" True Immortal Yongheng curled his lips, "He is the only one who is qualified enough to make me worry about it."
He did not finish the calculation, but he felt that it would not be good for him to continue the calculation, so he decisively stopped.
However, this can be regarded as a divination result. Just check with the other party to confirm it.
Qu Jianlei will not deny it. Central Province will take advantage of too many people, so denying it is meaningless.
Seriously, he was a little curious, "In the news you received, Jun Wuji was not involved?"
"That's Xiangyuan City's business," True Immortal Yongheng wasn't sure about this, "I didn't go out of my way to inquire."
Five Friends Alliance also has a presence in Xiangyuan, but his level of well-informed information is definitely not comparable to that of Great Leaf City.
However, he did have a guess, "Mangdang Mountain should be nothing serious, otherwise there should be news."
"Besides, Art Academy's group of people are really good at divination. They may be able to figure out the cause and effect of Jun Wuji."
"And that guy is quite vigilant. Although his strength is not bad, it is much more difficult for enemies to find him than to defeat him."
"Is there such a thing?" Qu Jianlei smiled upon hearing this, "Since he's fine, that's good."
"Fellow Daoist Qu, do you have a good opinion of him?" True Immortal Yongheng raised his eyebrows, feeling a little surprised.
However, he did not continue this topic. Talking about people behind their backs is not a good quality, and it may be tainted with karma.
Seriously, he thought of a question, "If Art Academy can be calculated and it has nothing to do with Jun Wuji, why can't Red Leaf Ridge be calculated?"
If Red Leaf Ridge can be calculated, why would there be a need to offer a reward for the information?
"Count us?" Qu Jianlei smiled naturally, his disdain written directly on his face, "Haha, does Art Academy have Great Venerable?"
The cause and effect of team contamination is not that strong. Even if Great Venerable takes action, it may backfire to the point of vomiting blood.
Leaving aside the Great World where the empire, Alliance and Federation are located, the team has destroyed more than three or five Out-of-Body Great Venerable.
True Immortal Yongheng didn't think the other party was bragging, he just extended a thumbs up and nodded silently.
Qu Jianlei thought for a moment before speaking, "Can you contact Heavenly Expanse?"
"Okay," True Immortal Yongheng replied without hesitation, "Let him come and visit?"
He is not provocative, but feels that... Tianyu True Immortal may not be comparable to Red Leaf Ridge.
Behind that person are Xinhua City Lord's Mansion and Art Academy, but so what? It was as if there was no one behind Red Leaf Ridge.
Does it cost nothing to ask for help? Putting aside many backgrounds, the small circle of Heavenly Expanse is really not as good as the team of Red Leaf Ridge.
"No," Qu Jianlei replied disapprovingly, "We bought this manor with money, why should we let him know?"
"This little money..." True Immortal Yongheng shook his head speechlessly. The price of that piece of Stone alone was much more expensive than this manor!
The next moment, he realized that the other party was not reluctant to part with the money, but felt that... Heavenly Expanse was not worthy! A dignified True Immortal, the grandfather-in-law of Xinhua City Lord, is not worthy of being treated by Red Leaf Ridge in such a small manor! What kind of arrogance is this? However, he did not intend to comment on the other party's words and deeds, he just asked, "Where will we agree to meet?"
"You help me decide," Qu Jianlei replied casually, "It's best to be in a place where you can let your hands and feet go freely."
He is expressing his trust in True Immortal Yongheng - everyone is cooperating, so you should work harder and stand together.
He now has the courage to face Central Province forces, not only because of the grandfathers, but also because of the support of Dongsheng cultivators.
As for the power of Central Province, it is also right to fight for some of it if you can, and to make your friends Duo Duo.
He made the decision very happily, but True Immortal Yongheng was worried: Doesn't this mean we are going to act as guarantee? It is said that it is quite honorable to provide guarantee for these two parties. Tianyu True Immortal is not easy to mess with, and Red Leaf Ridge is a strong team that works alone.
But the problem is: these two families are really not easy to mess with! Although Tianyu True Immortal is only a close friend, he has the background of the City Lord's Mansion behind him.
Five Friends Alliance There is strength in numbers. If you don't have such a big foundation, it doesn't hurt to touch him. But the family has a big business and it really can't be spared.
Red Leaf Ridge is even more troublesome. True Immortal Yongheng intuitively thinks that this team is not as easy to talk to as it seems.
After all, it is absolutely impossible to tell the opponent's numerous achievements by mouth.
If Tianyu True Immortal can't give a decent explanation, Ridge Lord Qu once turns his back, True Immortal Yongheng doesn't think he can stop the other party.
Moreover, Red Leaf Ridge also has the confidence to attack. At worst, he can retreat to Dongsheng. No matter how powerful Xinhua City is, can he still catch up? Even Star Palace's influence on Dongsheng is just that. Now there is a serious problem like Heavenly Demon, how dare you attack it casually? After thinking for a long time, he sighed, "This matter still needs long-term consideration..."
Two days later, Broken Blade finally integrated with Slaughter Rule and fell to the stone table below.
Qi Ya and Fourth Boss, who were in trance, were also awakened. After resting for a while, they slowly stood up.
Seeing that the two of them were fine, Qu Jianlei raised his hand to call Broken Blade back, and asked again, "Do you need some retreat to sort out your thoughts?"
"Thank you, boss, no need," Qi Ya replied seriously, "This Blade Intent will be helpful for me to understand "Forget Sorrow Sword"."
Forget Sorrow Sword Manual is the one they purchased at the Xiangyuan City exchange meeting not long ago.
