Chapter 202 Resolving Conflicts

After weighing the pros and cons, Zhang Zhixuan decided to keep Gu Chengxun. He thought for a moment and said to Gu Chengxun: "If it's just this, as long as you don't go out and run around, I can guarantee the safety of Fellow Daoist Gu. If the Zhang family doesn't fall, Fellow Daoist Gu will be as stable as a rock."

Seeing that Zhang Zhixuan agreed to act as guarantee, Gu Chengxun relaxed his worries a little.

Ever since Zhang Zhixuan sold spiritual wine in Xihefang, his brother Gu Chengliang has become an alcoholic. This time, he almost caused trouble for the family because of his drinking.

After hearing the news from his friend, Gu Chengxun and his disciples hurriedly left Taohuatan to avoid Li Zhang coming to seek revenge.

He heard that the Zhang family was recruiting talents on a large scale, so he hurried to Tiantai Peak with his disciples.

Because there were powerful enemies outside, in order to get the protection of the Zhang family, Gu Chengxun did not dare to hide it. He not only explained the cause and effect clearly, but also handed over the inheritance of alchemy from his ancestors.

However, as the saying goes, it is better to resolve enemies than to make enemies. If there is a chance, Zhang Zhixuan is still willing to shake hands with Li Zhang and make peace. If the conflict can be resolved, it is better not to easily make enemies.

In order to resolve the matter, Zhang Zhixuan personally went to Qingxuan Sect to find Han Yan.

The two of them found Chen Hongyuan as their middleman, and sent a letter to Li Zhang to clarify the cause and effect of the matter.

Because the Zhang family came forward, Li Zhang had no way to pursue the case. He could not attack Tiantai Peak and kill Gu Chengxun, who was protected by the Zhang family.

Although he has a high level of alchemy, he is not as bright as Zhang Hanyan on the road.

If Han Yan opens the Zi Mansion in the future, the descendants of the Li family may have to look at Zhang Hanyan's face. It is impossible for him to get things done now and create an irresolvable conflict with the Zhang family.

In order to thank Li Zhang for his generosity, Zhang Zhixuan also made a copy of the Gu family's alchemy inheritance and gave it to Li Zhang as a thank you gift.

Although Li Zhang is a third-level top-level alchemist, the Gu family's alchemy inheritance contains two third-level alchemy recipes, which are also of great help to Li Zhang. This inheritance of alchemy can also increase the Li family's heritage.

The Li family has been rooted in the Qingxuan Sect for five generations, and each generation has people who can build the foundation, relying on the family's inheritance of alchemy.

It is precisely because each generation can cultivate alchemists of high level that the Li family can become more and more prosperous in Qingxuan Sect.

After receiving such great benefits, Li Zhang was satisfied. Even if there was still a trace of dissatisfaction in his heart, as long as he didn't meet Gu Chengxun on the spot, he would choose to give up and not cause trouble for the Zhang family.

After resolving the conflict with Li Zhang, Zhang Zhixuan had just arrived at Han Yan's cave when he saw Zhang Luo and his grandson Zhang Zhen coming to visit.

These grandparents and grandsons are quite worldly. Ever since Han Yan established the foundation, they have been taking care of her cave spiritual field.

Because of the cold smoke, their cultivation has been relatively smooth over the years, especially Zhang Zhen. Although he is just in his early thirties, his cultivation is already good, and he has now reached the eighth level of Qi refining.

When you reach this level of cultivation, you have to consider foundation building.

It has been five generations since Zhang Zhen's ancestors left the Zhang family and joined the Qingxuan Sect. However, they were unlucky and had never been a monk in the foundation-building period.

After five generations of operation, they have not accumulated enough good deeds. Unless they take risks and pass the test, Zhang Zhen's generation alone cannot save enough good deeds to exchange for the Foundation Establishment Pill.

Even if he has good spiritual roots and can reach the ninth level of Qi training very early, without the foundation building pill, he will still be stuck at this step. Even for a large sect like Qingxuan Sect, not everyone has the courage to take the risk and pass the test.

In the entire Qingxuan Sect, there are less than ten monks who have the courage, opportunity, and perseverance to build a foundation without using the Foundation Establishment Pill, and most of them are the bones of failure.

Therefore, Zhang Luo's ancestors and grandsons could only hope to use external force and use the help of others in exchange for the Foundation Establishment Pill. This external force could only be the Zhang family of Taicheng County.

Therefore, Zhang Luo has been very diligent in recent decades.

Every time Zhang Zhixuan came to Qingxuan Sect, he would bring Zhang Zhen to visit him, hoping that Zhang Zhen could perform well in front of Zhang Zhixuan. At the critical moment when he was building his foundation, the Zhang family could lend a sum of resources to help exchange for a foundation-building pill, so that Zhang Zhen could Can further build the foundation for success.

Even though Zhang Luo appeared to be attentive, they had been away from the family for a hundred years and had no sympathy for sharing the hardships with the family. If it's a simple matter and they have the same ancestor, Zhang Zhixuan is willing to help.

However, in exchange for the Foundation Establishment Pill, tens of thousands of spiritual stones are required, and it is simply impossible for the Zhang family to take the lion's share.

Even Zhang Sidao had to find a way to earn some of his good deeds, let alone Zhang Zhen, who was far more connected.

Zhang Zhixuan exchanged a few words with Zhang Luo's ancestors and grandsons. Seeing the submissive and groveling look of the two ancestors and grandsons, Zhang Zhixuan sighed and said: "Fellow Daoist Zhang, although my cultivation level is higher than yours, you are much older than me in terms of age. What should we do?" We have the same ancestor. I know clearly what you have meant over the years. If Zhang Zhen lacks one or two thousand good deeds when building the foundation, Han Yan and I should help him to prevent him from missing the foundation. Opportunity. But if our family takes the lead, I’m afraid there’s nothing we can do.”

Although ancestor Zhang Luo has been rooted in the Qingxuan Sect for five generations, his ancestral good deeds are only less than a thousand. Even if he and Zhang Zhen risk their lives, they can't get enough. After hearing Zhang Zhixuan's straightforward words, the ancestors and grandson's faces turned pale. Gray, suddenly a little discouraged.

Zhang Zhixuan's words were a big blow to them, and almost shattered the hopes of the grandfather and grandson.

"If a cultivator wants to go far on the path of Taoism, he still has to rely on himself. Zhang Zhen's cultivation is already good, so why not let Han Yan introduce him to Yu Wanling and learn alchemy first. Only by having a skill can you exchange resources for cultivation. Even if this generation cannot accumulate enough good deeds, it can lay a good foundation for future generations. What do you think?"

Zhang Zhixuan's next words gave Zhang Luo a glimmer of hope.

Although Yu Wanling is only a third-level lower-grade alchemist, he is far from a big shot that Zhang Luo's grandparents can curry favor with. The reason why he can accept disciples is because of the Zhang family's relationship within the Qingxuan Sect.

Although Patriarch Zhang Chuyun has been in meditation for many years, he also accepted more than ten disciples in those days. Although these disciples did not open up the purple palace, most of them were also foundation-building cultivators.

Almost two hundred years have passed. Although most of these disciples have been in meditation, their disciples have also grown up.

Yu Wanling is the direct disciple of Patriarch Chuyun. Ever since Patriarch Chuyun's Taoist partner Grandma Yunzhi passed away, he has become very close to Han Yan. They have more and more contacts in Qingxuan Sect, and gradually they have become close friends.
