Chapter 79 Faction Struggle Gong Wansheng is very anxious! Ever since Xiao Changqing used the secret technique of spiritual consciousness to defeat the source of evil, although he had many thoughts and talked with Xiao Changqing, in fact, part of his attention was always on this piece of jade! The origin of this jade is mysterious, and now its original power has disappeared, but what if its function of allowing a foundation-building cultivator to possess the strength to form a pill is still there? Of course, the prerequisite is that you will not be possessed by evil spirits, fall into the abyss, and become a walking corpse. If it can really control the negative effects of evil spirits and allow foundation-building cultivators to quickly reach the level of Jindan, then this is a priceless treasure... Taking a step back, even if it no longer has magical effects, it is still worth studying. If we study it thoroughly, we might be able to gain a certain understanding of evil spirits. Of course, this was the main reason, he really wanted this mysterious jade. Part of the reason is that he does believe that this mysterious jade may still pose a great safety hazard. It seems that there is no problem at the moment, but if Xiao Changqing stays around and the evil power revives in the future and he is accidentally bewitched, it will be a huge disaster for Xiao Changqing himself and for Nanshanfang. The safest way is to bring him back to Luoxia Sect. "Fellow Daoist Gong, you are overthinking. Since I can destroy the evil power of this jade, I can definitely control it."
Xiao Changqing used his magic power to wrap up the jade and directly put it back into the storage bag. The resurrection of evil power? Not happening! After today, Xiao Changqing will draw evil-breaking talismans and calming talismans crazily! I had saved more than ninety photos before and thought that was enough. After all, if Ruan Qingzhu's son is possessed by evil spirits, a talisman to break the evil spirits and a talisman to calm the mind can solve the problem. But he didn't know that Ruan Qingzhu's son didn't face the evil spirit directly at all. He just watched it from afar and was contaminated by a trace of evil spirit. After today, the number of evil-breaking talismans and mind-calming talismans he carries with him must not be less than three digits! "Master Xiao Fu, would you like to reconsider this? Keeping this thing around may not be a good thing." Gong Wansheng sighed. “It has been thought through very clearly.” Xiao Changqing now resists the urge to use the system directly to check whether it can be equipped, for fear of any accidents. Although it stands to reason that if the mysterious jade is equipped on the system, no evil power can cause any trouble. No matter how strange the evil spirit is, can it be stronger than his inventory? However, to be on the safe side, Xiao Changqing planned to wait until his spirit and soul recovered to their peak and he had enough talismans on him before trying to equip the mysterious jade. "Oh, all right. Master Xiao Fu, you really need to be careful in the future. Prepare more evil-breaking talismans and calming talismans to suppress this piece of jade." Gong Wansheng did not force it, but just gave instructions. After all, Mu Renjie was eliminated by Xiao Changqing, and the evil power on the jade was also destroyed by Xiao Changqing, so this piece of jade is Xiao Changqing's trophy. As for him, although he was the one fighting with Mu Renjie at the beginning, he was defeated and fled in the end. At one point, he was hunted to the point of despair and thought he might die here. After all, Xiao Changqing was his savior. How could he rightfully ask Xiao Changqing to give him the mysterious jade? "Thanks for the reminder, I will pay attention to it." Xiao Changqing nodded and started talking about business. "Shopkeeper Zhou died at the hands of Mu Renjie tonight. What will happen to Lingfu Pavilion next? Will you, Fellow Daoist Gong, take over as the shopkeeper of Lingfu Pavilion, or will Luoxia Sect arrange for a new leader to come?" Gong Wansheng said: "I am only here to investigate Mu Renjie. Now that Mu Renjie is dead, I will be back to the sect soon. The new manager..."
Originally, he wanted to say that the sect would arrange someone to take over as the shopkeeper. But he suddenly seemed to have thought of something, looked at Xiao Changqing with a smile, and asked, "I wonder if Master Xiao Fu is interested in taking over the position of shopkeeper?" Xiao Changqing was stunned for a moment, then shook his head and said, "I am just a talisman painter. I am not suitable to take over as the shopkeeper, and I will not be the shopkeeper." Drawing talismans in the Lingfu Pavilion can only be regarded as being employed by the Luoxia Sect, which is equivalent to being a guest official. If you become the shopkeeper of Lingfu Pavilion, you will be a regular member of Luoxia Sect. If Xiao Changqing was weak and did not have the golden finger, being able to join the Luoxia Sect would naturally be a great thing and he would agree without hesitation. But joining Luoxia Sect now may not bring him much benefit. But there are many more constraints and shackles. For example, the current situation is turbulent. If a war between good and evil really breaks out one day and evil cults invade on a large scale, as disciples of Luoxia Sect, we must join the war and will not be able to withdraw at any time. Gong Wansheng was still trying to persuade him: "It's not impossible for a talisman master to be the shopkeeper. Although Elder Zhou is not a talisman master, before Elder Zhou, wasn't shopkeeper Hong Jiantao also a talisman master? Moreover, he was a second-level talisman master who had been hiding for many years..." "A second-level talisman master who has been hiding for many years? Didn't Shopkeeper Hong break through to the second-level talisman master just before he left Nanshanfang and was transferred to Liyang Fairy City?" Xiao Changqing hadn't heard any news about Shopkeeper Hong in the past few years. Nanshanfang, located on the southwestern border, is too far away from Liyangxian City, the center of the Dayu immortal world. Ordinary caravans would not make such a long journey. Naturally, it is difficult for news from Liyang Fairy City to reach Nanshanfang. "It seems that Manager Hong does not completely trust Master Xiao Fu and has concealed a lot of information from you." Gong Wansheng said meaningfully. "It's not that I concealed it, but I didn't ask." Xiao Changqing corrected. "Well." Gong Wansheng waved his hand, very casually, and did not argue with Xiao Changqing on this matter. Instead, he asked, "Since Master Xiao Fu does not want to take over the position of the head of the Ling Fu Pavilion, if the sect recruits you back and promotes you to the sect worshiper, Master Xiao Fu, are you willing to go back with me?" "I have little experience, how can I be worthy of the position of the sect's priest?" Xiao Changqing said politely. "Mastering the second-level skills, you are qualified to serve as a worshiper in any Jindan sect. What's more, you are a talisman master with such a natural talent." Gong Wansheng joked, "Master Xiao, you can't say that you haven't been promoted to the second level. You have so many second-level talismans in your hands today. Were they all bought or given to you by others?" "..." Xiao Changqing asked back: "If I say so, will Fellow Daoist Gong believe it?" After Gong Wansheng laughed loudly, he sighed and said, "It seems that Fellow Daoist Xiao does not intend to return to the sect with me, but plans to find an opportunity to go to Liyang Immortal City in the future to find Manager Hong." Xiao Changqing did not comment. Instead, he asked, "Manager Hong is also from Luoxia Sect. Why do I always feel that not only Fellow Daoist Gong, but also Elder Zhou before, don't like Manager Hong very much, and have a strong prejudice against him? What is the difference between going to the sect and going to Liyang Immortal City to find Manager Hong? Does Manager Hong leave Luoxia Sect when he goes to Liyang Immortal City?" Gong Wansheng was silent for a moment, and said vaguely: "It's nothing more than some old stories between the older generation. I don't know the specific situation. I only know that a group of elders in the sect, led by Shopkeeper Hong, have a great prejudice against the sect master and have never been convinced." Finally, Gong Wansheng changed his nonchalant image and said to Xiao Changqing sincerely, "Master Xiao Fu, I know you knew Manager Hong the earliest, and Manager Hong has been very kind to you. But the grudges and hatreds of the older generation have nothing to do with us. Not to mention you, even as a direct disciple of Luoxia Sect, I don't think I should get involved in them." "No matter what the Sect Master did, I don't know the specific reasons. But I know that when Luoxia Sect was in danger, it relied on the Sect Master to support the crumbling building and stabilize it!" "It's even more ridiculous that the rumor that the sect master got the position illegitimately is true. The world of immortal cultivation has always respected strength. The sect master is the only Jindan Zhenren in the sect. Apart from him, who else is worthy of being the sect master?" "If Master Xiao Fu is willing to follow me back to the sect, I can guarantee that you will never be treated unfairly after you return. The sect master is a genius and only appoints people based on their talents. He is not intolerant and will not suppress you just because of your relationship with Shopkeeper Hong."
