Upon hearing this, Zhou Letian was quite tempted, but after pondering for a mont, he shook his head helplessly: "I’m afraid I can’t go. I’m the only Foundation Establishnt Cultivator in the clan. If sothing happens to , I’m afraid our clan won’t even be able to defend our land."
"That’s true!" Xu Ping nodded and did not continue to persuade him.
About the ti it takes to drink a cup of tea later, a thin elder led five spirit beasts of various kinds to Xu Ping.
"This is a First Rank Upper Grade Fire Crow. Its demon fire can assist in artifact refining without any issue; this is a Fire Soul Wolf..."
Zhou Tianle began introducing the demon beasts one by one.
Xu Ping listened quietly, secretly selecting suitable spirit beasts in his mind.
"Fellow Daoist Xu, have you decided which spirit beasts you want?" After introducing all the spirit beasts, Zhou Tianle asked with a smile.
Xu Ping looked at the five different spirit beasts, pondered for a mont, and then gave his answer: "I’ll take the Fire Crow and the Water Lake Rat."
The demon fire breathed by the Fire Crow is stable and an excellent choice for assisting in artifact refining.
As for the Water Lake Rat, it is a water elent demon beast that can perform a skill similar to the Spirit Rain Skill, making it excellent for taking care of spirit dicines and spirit plants.
"Alright, give Fellow Daoist Xu the Demon Control Talisman!"
Zhou Tianle instructed the elder, then turned his gaze back to Xu Ping and said with a smile, "Once you refine the Spirit Control Token, you can control the actions and give orders to the demon beasts."
"Like the Water Lake Rat, they have been trained. You can simply give it an instruction, and it will take care of the spirit dicines and plants efficiently."
"Oh?"
A hint of surprise flashed across Xu Ping’s face.
They’ve been specially trained?
This is quite convenient, so there’s no need to worry about it not understanding my words.
Just as the elder of the Zhou family was about to hand the Spirit Control Token to Xu Ping.
Buzz!
Suddenly, the array that enveloped the entire Zhou family started to ripple.
"Is soone breaking through the array?"
The change in the array imdiately captured the attention of everyone present.
"Zhou Tianle, co out and see !" A long shout sounded like thunder, echoing throughout the entire Zhou family territory.
"My apologies, Fellow Daoist Xu, I will go and take a look!" Zhou Tianle’s expression changed slightly, apologized to Xu Ping, and hurriedly walked out of the cave.
Xu Ping frowned slightly, hesitated for a mont, but ultimately followed out.
Outside the cave!
Zhou Tianle took out a restriction token and waved it lightly.
The mist cleared, revealing a late-stage Foundation Establishnt youth standing on a spiritual boat above the array.
This person was wearing a deep black robe embroidered with a dragon turtle insignia, the dragon turtle looked extrely majestic and had two dragon whiskers.
"Dragon Turtle Robe?"
"Soone from the Shuize Sect?"
Xu Ping was slightly surprised.
The Shuize Sect has a third-rank guardian dragon turtle spirit beast, so the robes of Shuize Sect cultivators are adorned with dragon turtle patterns.
"Fellow Daoist Lan Hun!"
Upon seeing this person, Zhou Tianle’s face imdiately filled with a fawning smile, quickly opening the array to invite him in.
"Bring all your First Rank Upper Grade spirit beasts from your clan!"
Lan Hun put away his spiritual boat, and without any courtesy, directly ordered Zhou Tianle, completely ignoring Xu Ping’s presence.
A re early-stage Foundation Establishnt cultivator wasn’t worth his attention at all.
"This..." Zhou Tianle glanced at Xu Ping, showing a hint of hesitation on his face.
"What, you have a problem?" Lan Hun noticed his gaze, and his tone was icy cold.
"No, no, it’s just that this Fellow Daoist Xu had reserved two First Rank Upper Grade demon beasts, after all, Fellow Daoist Xu ca first. Could you let Fellow Daoist Xu take the reserved demon beasts first?" Zhou Tianle felt a tightness in his heart, forced a smile, and attempted to negotiate with Lan Hun.
"Are you hard of hearing?" Lan Hun’s gaze was sharp as a knife, coldly staring at Zhou Tianle.
Zhou Tianle was instantly drenched in cold sweat, forcing a smile as he responded:
"I understand, I understand, I will imdiately call people to bring the First Rank spirit beasts to Fellow Daoist Lan Hun, while you rest for a mont in my cave!"
Seeing the other person’s arrogant posture and insistent attitude, a trace of unnoticed coldness flashed in Xu Ping’s eyes.
’The people of Shuize Sect really are overbearing!’
’By the looks of it, the spirit beasts I reserved are probably lost!’
If this were in the wild, he would have cut the person down with a single sword strike.
"My deepest apologies, Fellow Daoist Xu. Please go to the side hall to wait for , I assure you won’t leave empty-handed." Zhou Tianle transmitted his voice through Divine Sense, his tone full of apology.
"I understand," Xu Ping responded indifferently.
Lan Hun naturally sensed the voice transmission between the two, but he couldn’t be bothered to interfere, walking briskly towards Zhou Tianle’s cave.
And Zhou Tianle hurried to follow.
Watching the two gradually receding figures, Xu Ping’s gaze flickered, and after a cold laugh in his heart, he followed the Zhou family’s cultivators to the side hall.
...
...
Half an hour later.
While Xu Ping was resting with his eyes closed, he sensed sothing and opened his eyes, gazing out the window.
Whoosh!
Lan Hun could be seen stepping on his spiritual boat, soaring into the sky, transforming into a stream of light, swiftly leaving the Zhou family territory.
"This score will be settled later!" Xu Ping cast a cold glance, then retracted his gaze.
Although it would be easy to kill the other person, it was inappropriate to make a move under the watchful eyes of many.
By the ti he finished handling the spirit beast matters, the other person would probably have returned to the Shuize Sect long ago, especially since he still had spirit wood to plant, and ti couldn’t be wasted outside.
A gentleman’s revenge can wait for ten years. He also rembered Shuize Sect with a ntal note.
Shortly after Lan Hun left.
Zhou Tianle walked into the side hall, full of apologies, and said:
"Fellow Daoist Xu, truly sorry, I had arranged with Lan Hun to et in two months, but I never expected him to suddenly show up and take away even the two spirit beasts promised to you!"
