Even though Shi Wu felt very stressed at this moment, he still held up the teacup with a calm expression. He savored a sip of red leaf tea, and the power of fire spirit and wood spirit fused in the tea made him calmer.

He put down the teacup and looked back at Zou Wei and Lu Kang and said, "You two fellow Taoists will not treat me as the murderer if you look at me like this?"

Zou Wei laughed first: "Even if Fellow Daoist Shi is really the murderer, it has nothing to do with me and Fellow Daoist Lu. At most, we and Senior Chen Lingzi nodded."

Lu Kang said at the right time: "Yes, we have seen Senior Chen Lingzi three or four times over the years."

Shi Wucai didn't believe what these two people said, even if he was the real murderer, it had nothing to do with them. He had already thought of a way to clear his suspicion: "The two fellow Taoists look down on me too highly. Although I am a wandering cultivator and have magic weapons to hide my cultivation, I am not brave enough to kill the only son of Senior Chen Lingzi. My purpose of traveling north this time was to heal my natal spirit beast. It's a coincidence that when I was in Ten Thousand Beasts City, I would have had a chance to discuss with the Wuxu Sword Sect and Guan Mizi, two fellow Taoists, and then made friends with Senior Guo Sheng."

When Zou Wei and Lu Kang heard about Guo Sheng's name, they were indeed moved.

Zou Wei touched his bald head and said, "I wonder why fellow Daoist Shi and fellow Daoist Guan Mizi competed with Wuxuzi and Wan Beast City?"

Shi Wu was waiting for Zou Wei to ask him. He immediately told the story about the Ten Thousand Beasts City. Guan Mizi had been promoted to the late stage of the Return to Xu, and Zou Wei and Lu Kang's expressions changed. When the two heard that Shi Wu was protecting the Ten Thousand Beasts City with the late stage of the Return to Xu, and Guo Xu let Shi Wu name him in the North in the future, their suspicion of Shi Wu was eliminated.

In the eyes of Zou Wei and Lu Kang, Qiu Zheng and Zhai Xiao were Guo Jin's subordinates. If Shi Wu was really the murderer of Chenxu, and he also returned to Giant Turtle City to kill Tian Jun and Liu Jing, Guo Jin would never protect Shi Wuwu. As for the truth or falsehood of what Shi Wu said, they had a close relationship with Wuxuzi of Wuxu Sword Sect, so I found a gap to verify it.

When the spiritual body of the heavenly tribulation saw Shi Wu outside and Zou Wei and Lu Kang, he was worried about Shi Wu, "I'm so afraid that they will suddenly attack you."

Shi Wu was drinking red leaf tea calmly. He used the method of introspection of "Nine Transformation Spiritual Art": "They will not take action until they are 70% sure. The suspicion in their hearts will drive them to follow the clues I gave. When they finally find out that everything I said is true, they will feel a little guilty because of their previous suspicion of me. It is this little bit of guilt that will guide them to believe me step by step. With Guo Sheng as a guarantee, Shi Wu's identity is the innocent!"

The spiritual body of the heavenly tribulation said, "Human hearts are really sinister and complicated."

Shi Wu said helplessly to the spirit of the heavenly tribulation: "This is impossible. These people who have lived for thousands of years are still talking and laughing with me. When I show my strength, they should use thunderous means."

The spirit body of the heavenly tribulation reminded: "Please pay more attention."

"I can do it." Shi Wu turned back to the heavenly tribulation spirit and heard Lu Kang confirm to him whether Guan Mizi had really reached the strength of a sword cultivator in the late stage of the Return to Void.

Shi Wu affirmed: "This matter was said by fellow Taoist Wuxuzi personally, and many monks in Wanbeast City have witnessed it."

Zou Wei helped Shiwudao: "Fellow Daoist Lu, although Fellow Daoist Guan Mizi's promotion speed is a little faster, I believe what Fellow Daoist Shi said is true."

"Fellow Daoist Zou misunderstood. It's not that I don't believe what fellow Daoist Shi said, but that I have a close relationship with them who are also sword cultivators. Now I heard that Wuxu Sword Sect has added another sword cultivator in the late stage of the Return to Xu, and I want to find some time to congratulate them." Lu Kang explained.

Zou Wei took out a red jade plate and said, "How can I choose time? I will ask you when the Wuxu Sword Sect will issue celebration invitations."

As Zou Wei said that, he injected a wisp of spiritual power into the red jade plate, and a bright spiritual power mirror immediately appeared above the jade plate.

About three breaths passed, Wuxuzi, wearing a green robe, appeared in the mirror. Wuxuzi said, "Brother Zou, what gust of wind reminds you of me?"

Zou Wei smiled and said, "Of course it's a festive wind. I heard that your junior brother Guan Mizi was promoted successfully. I want to congratulate you here on the Wuxu Sword Sect having two late-stage sword cultivators in the Return to Xu."

"Brother Zou, your news is so amazing." Wuxuzi said a little surprised.

Zou Wei joked: "Fellow Daoist Wuxuzi, this is why you are not interested enough. How can you notify your friends in the circle of such major issues as the promotion of Fellow Daoist Guan Mizi?"

"Isn't it too late? Originally, I thought of going to Wanbeast City with Junior Brother Guan Mizi to find the previously thrown place back, and then announcing the news of Junior Brother Guan Mizi's promotion in the circle. Unexpectedly, the six-toothed tiger-winged beast was seriously injured by us and killed a late-stage skill called Shi Wu, who was saved by him from Wanbeast City." Seeing Zou Wei's expression strange, Wuxuzi added, "Don't look at me like this. I thought that there is no need to be a human cultivator with fellow Daoist Shi to hurt the harmony because of those spirit beasts. Moreover, even Senior Guo Sheng praised the fire-type magic of fellow Daoist Shi."

Zou Wei laughed and said, "Okay, I know you have a big picture. Look at who these two are."

Zou Wei turned the jade plate in his hand, aiming the bright mirror of spiritual power at Lu Kang and Shi Wu on both sides of the guest seats.

Wuxuzi said in surprise: "Fellow Daoist Lu, Fellow Daoist Shi! Why are you together?"

Lu Kang first congratulated Wuxuzi and said, "Congratulations to you Wuxu Sword Sect for adding another sword cultivator in the late stage of the Return to Xu. I just came out of seclusion to ask fellow Daoist Zou if there was any major incident in the past 150 years. I happened to meet fellow Daoist Zou who cooked tea to entertain fellow Daoist Shi. During the tea tasting, we heard fellow Daoist Shi say that fellow Daoist Guan Mizi cut off the right arm of the ferocious beast Hei Xiaozi in the early stage of the Return to Xu with one sword. Then I learned that he had successfully promoted the sword cultivator in the late stage of the Return to Xu. Fellow Daoist Zou helped me contact you to ask when you would send us a celebration invitation."

Wuxuzi secretly wondered why Zou Wei didn't explain it earlier. He was glad that he hadn't said anything belittled Shi Wu just now, otherwise the scene would be awkward. He replied to Lu Kang and said, "Fellow Daoist Lu, don't worry, I will confirm the time for you friends, and try to choose a day that everyone can come to have a good gathering."

"Fellow Taoist Wuxuzi is intent." Lu Kang said with a smile.

Shi Wu bowed to Wuxuzi and said, "Fellow Taoist, come here, okay."

Wuxuzi stared at Shi Wu with curiosity: "Fellow Daoist Shi, how could you be with Fellow Daoist Zou?"

Shi Wuguai knew: "After I left Wanzhou City, I went to Juechu City to explore the news about Hua Jingxuan, but he left first. When I continued to travel through Wenping City, I fell in love with the formation barrier there, and then met the hospitality of fellow Daoist Zou and the very destined fellow Daoist Lu."

Wuxuzi heard it even more strangely and said, "Fellow Daoist Shi, there is something I don't know whether to talk about it or not."

"Fellow Daoist Wuxuzi, but it's okay." Shi Wudao.

Wuxuzi said, "I got the news that the perfect spiritual root triangular red spirit leopard in Wanbeast City was promoted to the early stage of God Refining yesterday. Wanbeast City had a big banquet for guests for three days and three nights. The triangular red spirit leopard was still named the young city lord by the six-toothed tiger-winged beast at yesterday's dinner. As the benefactor of Wanbeast City, they should treat you as a guest and leave you to celebrate in the city."

Shi Wu had already guessed that Wuxuzi was going to say this. He replied: "Fellow Daoist Wuxuzi, I told you and fellow Taoist Guan Mizi at that time that I went to Wanwu City to heal my natal spirit beast. I rescued it because I didn't want to owe the love of the leopard beast. After I gave me the spirit grass in Wanwu City, I had no connection with them anymore."

If Shi Wu said this before, Wuxuzi would definitely not believe it. But now Shi Wu appeared here to drink tea and chat in Zou Wei while celebrating the city of Ten Thousand Beasts, which directly proved that what Shi Wu said was true. He smiled and said with a smile: "Fellow Daoist Shi is really a principled person. Fellow Daoist and I can be regarded as not knowing each other without fighting."

Zou Wei reminded Shi Wu: "Fellow Daoist Shi, fortunately, the three of us have not talked about why you left Wan Beast City just now. Otherwise, you explained to fellow Wuxuzi that you are afraid that you will lose all your cultivation."

A look of fear appeared on Shi Wu's face and said, "Thank you for your advice."

Wuxuzi remembered that there was a rule that Zou Wei could not spread the content of the chat when drinking tea and chatting. He apologized: "Fellow Daoist Shi, I'm sorry. I didn't mean to talk about this on purpose."

Zou Wei said to Wuxuzi again: "I believe that fellow Taoist Wuxuzi definitely did not intend it. It is natural that we talked to fellow Taoist Wuxuzi, who was involved in the matters he had experienced, but I am afraid that we would accidentally talk about other people's affairs. All three of us made a swearing, and to be on the safe side, I still have to shut down this Mirror Flower Art."

Wuxuzi understood and said, "Brother Zou, then you guys will talk first. I'll deal with some matters within the sect. When the day is confirmed, I'll send someone to send you the first invitation."

"Okay." After Zou Wei said that, he took the initiative to close his mirror flower technique.

With Wuxuzi's confirmation, especially after knowing that Shi Wu was the fire-type technique practice in the late stage of Return to Xu, Zou Wei and Lu Kang's suspicion of Shiwu was completely eliminated. The atmosphere in the hall also became relaxed and comfortable.

Zou Wei praised Shi Wudao: "Fellow Daoist Shi's fire-type magic can praise Senior Guo, which is probably of great power."

Shi Wu said the truth: "It was Senior Guo who praised me. In the face of Senior Guo's Lieyang Achievement, my magic is really nothing."

Lu Kang said: "Fellow Daoist Shi is too modest. Older generations of monks from the Holy Realm, like Senior Guo, have experienced countless battles. They have already polished their magic to the extreme in these battles, and their ability to grasp the situation and respond to changes on the spot are even more comparable to us. So Wuxuzi said that Senior Guo praised your magic, so your magic must be outstanding."

The Tianjie Spirit Body looked at Zou Wei and Lu Kang saying good things, and said to Shi Wu: "Are these the two people who were going to attack you just now?"

Shi Wu smiled and said, "Don't praise me anymore. Fellow Daoist Zou, Fellow Daoist Wuxuzi came up and said that you have a brilliant news. What big news do you have here? It's good to make me and fellow Daoist Lu have a better experience."

Zou Wei followed Shi Wu's words and said: "Now think about it, combined with the news given by fellow Taoist Shi, one thing I know here may be related to the opportunity mentioned by Hua Jingxuan."

"Oh?" Shi Wu and Lu Kang both said intriguedly, "Let's talk about it quickly."

Zou Wei then said: "Hua Jingxuan and Hunyuanzi went to the northeast to look for opportunities. The opportunity that was qualified to be seen by Hua Jingxuan in that direction was nothing more than the third stronghold of the Northern Lingchen Alliance and the Tianchen Valley of the senior Chen Lingzi. I learned from a friend of the Lingchen Alliance that the third stronghold of the Northern Lingchen Alliance received a star stone half a month ago, and it has been reported as a reward for the Lingchen Festival thirty years later."

Shi Wu had no special expression on his face when he heard this news, but he thought to himself: "The six array ring star stones in my arms are likely to be the one in the third stronghold of the Lingchen Alliance. Since Zou Wei has learned this news, it is only a matter of time before Chen Lingzi knows it. Do you really have to give up these array ring star stones?"

Shi Wu took the red leaf tea unwillingly and took a sip.

At this time, Lu Kang asked Zou Wei: "Fellow Daoist Zou, Hua Jingxuan and Hunyuanzi have obtained a whole batch of array ring star stones. Is there any powerful spiritual food in the Spiritual Season League to be released? Or will there be a treasure of heaven and earth falling to Tianchen Valley?"

Zou Wei tasted the Lingshuo Tea Ceremony: "It's unknown. Anyway, Senior Chen Lingzi has already gone to the third stronghold of the Lingchen Alliance because of the array ring star stone."

Shi Wu heard this and said, "It seems that Fellow Daoist Qiu and Fellow Daoist Zhai can breathe a sigh of relief."

Zou Wei laughed and said, "Fellow Daoist Shi must not know much about Lingchen Alliance if he can say this."

Shi Wu said with a nod, "I do know very little about the Spiritual Season Alliance. But I have had an indissoluble bond with Spiritual Season since my practice. I promised a friend that he would become a Spiritual Seasonian through the Spiritual Season Alliance's assessment."

"Are you going to win the Array Star Stone?" Lu Kang said half-jokingly.

Without waiting for Shi Wu to explain, Zou Wei helped reply: "Fellow Daoist Lu, you misunderstood Daoist Shi. Before he came to me, I had already bought a map to the third stronghold of the Lingchen Alliance in Wenping City. Speaking of which, there is also your contribution in this map."

"My credit?" Lu Kang said in confusion.

Zou Wei nodded and said, "Wenping City is six million miles away from the third stronghold of Lingchen Alliance. The map of the Kaifeng Gate is only distributed within a radius of four million miles. The manager there later thought of a way to find one of your subordinates to help and make up for the remaining two million miles."

"So that's it." Lu Kang said.

Zou Wei continued to tell Shi Wu: "Fellow Daoist Shi, you just heard me say that Senior Chen Lingzi has passed through the third stronghold of Lingchen Alliance. Do you think that Lingchen Alliance will resell the array ring star stone to Senior Chen Lingzi?"

Shi Wudao: "Isn't it? Senior Chen Lingzi is a cultivator from the Holy Realm. The Spiritual Champion Alliance always wants to give him some face."

Zou Wei shook his head and said, "The Lingchen Alliance will not give any face to Senior Chen Lingzi. The array ring star stone will only be obtained by the winner of the Lingchen Ceremony."

Shi Wu just wanted to ask what the spiritual meal ceremony was. Now that he heard Zou Wei mention it again, he couldn't help but say, "Fellow Daoist Zou, is this spiritual meal ceremony a competition?"

Zou Wei explained: "This spiritual meal ceremony can be said to be a competition, or it can be regarded as a review of all spiritual meal skills by the Spiritual Cheung Alliance. Cultivators who have passed the spiritual meal examination can buy spiritual meal materials at half the price lower than on the market within the spiritual meal alliance, and there will be a fixed quota of spiritual stones or fairy jades distributed every year. However, there are many revenge in the cultivation world. Even if the spiritual meal status is high, accidents will inevitably occur. The spiritual meal alliance will determine whether those monks have the spiritual meal qualifications granted to them by the Spiritual Cheung Alliance through the spiritual meal ceremony held every two hundred years. Each spiritual meal ceremony will evaluate the best effect of each grade.

That spiritual meal will reward the cooker of that spiritual meal. Those commendable items will be provided by the Lingchen Alliance bases in various hidden worlds. If the third stronghold of the Northern Spiritual Festival does not report the Array Ring Star Stone, Luan Suling may also give Chen Lingzi a face to replace the Array Ring Star Stone. However, now the Array Ring Star Stone has been reported to the Lingchen Alliance headquarters. In other words, the Array Ring Star Stone belongs to the entire Lingchen Alliance. The face of the Senior Chen Lingzi is not enough. I can say that Luan Suling may be in a good mood or may be able to pay attention to Chen Lingzi. If he is in a bad mood, Chen Lingzi may not even see Luan Suling's face."

Shi Wu said in surprise: "The Lingchen Alliance is so powerful?"

Zou Wei sighed, "Of course it's amazing. The top thirty spiritual food masters on the Spiritual Food Heaven List are all monks from the Holy Realm, and they can refine more than two spiritual food masters from the Holy Level. The Dan League, which could have fought with the Spiritual Food Alliance, was crushed to his last breath after the new generation of top-grade fire spirit root cultivators were all under the command of the Spiritual Food Alliance. Although there are still many alchemy masters, there are only a handful of them."

Shi Wu said a pity: "There are only a few talented cultivators of fire spirit roots. They all pounce on the spiritual food, and the alchemy lineage will inevitably wither. Alas, I am not qualified to say such things. After all, I am determined to become a spiritual foodie."

Lu Kang Kaijie said: "Fellow Daoist Shi's ambition does not conflict with your unfairness in the lineage of alchemy."

Shi Wu asked Zou Wei and Lu Kang: "Is there no fire spirit root cultivator to take into account both the identities of spiritual food and alchemist?"

Zou Wei and Lu Kang's face changed drastically when they heard this. Zou Wei advised: "Fellow Daoist Shi, just say this to me. Don't mention this idea in front of unfamiliar people in the future. The mutual hatred between the Spiritual Chess Alliance and the Pill Alliance leads the Spiritual Chessian to look down on the alchemist, and feel that the elixir will be completely replaced by the Spiritual Chessian. The alchemist looks down on the Spiritual Chessian. They think that the Spiritual Chessian is just relying on the number of people to have the current prosperity. They believe that in the future, the Alchemist will produce a great genius, who will lead the Dan League to overtake the Spiritual Chessian with a proud attitude. So if you want to take into account the identity of both the Spiritual Chessian and the Alchemist, it is equivalent to offending both sides."

Shi Wu bowed and said, "Thank you, fellow Daoist Zou, for your advice, I will pay attention."

Seeing that the words were already open, Zou Wei continued, "Actually, I think for us monks who do not participate in the fight between the two sides, whether it is spiritual food or elixir, we need it. Take the late-stage Guling Soup I usually need, for example, the price of a bowl of Guling Soup is thirty immortal jade, while the late-stage Steady Pill with the same effect is only ten immortal jades. The effects of the two are actually not much different, but the number of times that can be taken by the Steady Pill is less than that of Guling Soup. Now that the spiritual food is prosperous, you don't know that those monks with fire spirit roots and talent for refining spiritual food all think that they are chosen people and will definitely be on the spiritual food list in the future. They then try their best to refine spiritual food. The prices of those spiritual food materials soar day by day, and the prices of the final product also rise wildly."

"The price is still secondary. What I don't like most are those top-grade spiritual foodmen with high eyes in the sky! I wanted to be more diligent in speed back then, so I sincerely went to the second stronghold of the Spiritual Food Alliance to find the Yu Ao Ling Foodmen who I had funded before. At that time, he could already refine the late stage spiritual food in the Xun period. Who knew that when he heard it was me, he asked his subordinates in his mansion to reply to me, saying that he was refining spiritual food for many monks from the Holy Realm. If I want to buy it, I will pay the fairy jade first and then wait in line for three hundred years. After hearing this, I turned around and left. Later, Brother Zou contacted a master of alchemy and bought the wind and thunder pill at the late stage of the Xun period for me. Only then can my spirit-slaying body technique be perfect." Lu Kang recalled the past and couldn't help but hold the elephant pine-wood teacup in his hand tightly.

Zou Wei smiled awkwardly and said, "Fellow Daoist Lu, no matter how you say it, don't crush me like a pine wood teacup."

Lu Kang let go of his palm and said, "I am just angry, but I can't cure him!"

Shi Wu asked, "Fellow Daoist Lu, what is the cultivation level of Yu Aoling's meal teacher now?"

"It's still the late stage of returning to the emptiness." Lu Kang replied.

Shi Wudao: "Or what if we have time, we will go outside his mansion and wait, and tie him up and beat him up when he is not careful. Anyway, fellow Taoist Zou also said that there are many cases of revenge in the cultivation world, and people like him who don't even think about your support must have many enemies."

Zou Weigang drank the spiritual tea in his mouth and sprayed it out. He knew that he was disobedient and wiped his mouth and said, "Fellow Daoist Shi, it's your business that you want to tie up and hit people, I don't know anything. Don't count me."

Lu Kang understood that Shi Wu's proposal was to vent his anger, but reason told him that he could not do this.

Zou Wei seized the opportunity and said, "Forget it, Brother Lu, we can't mess with the top third-grade spiritual chef. We are now expecting fellow Daoist Shi to be on the Heavenly List in the future and to overwhelm the bastard Yu Ao to vent our anger for us."

Lu Kang echoed: "Yes! Fellow Daoist Shi is a cultivator of the late stage of the Return to Void. As long as he works a little harder, it is only a matter of time before he surpasses Yu Ao's bastard. Fellow Daoist Shi, we will agree first. If you can make spiritual meals at the late stage of the Return to Void in the future, Fellow Daoist Zou and I ask you to your mansion, you can't let the servants send us away."

Shi Wu patted his chest and said, "Don't worry, if I can really use your auspicious words to become a spiritual master, if you and fellow Daoist Zou come to me, I will definitely go out to greet me in person!"

Lu Kang said to Zou Wei: "Fellow Daoist Zou, you heard it."

"Well, I heard it. By the way, Fellow Daoist Shi, what level of spiritual food can you make now?" Zou Wei said.

Shi Wu said truthfully: "The late-stage level of the Nascent Soul."
Chapter completed!
