Chapter 523 Conspiracy
Xie Yanxia was born in Qihu Sea. He left his hometown because he offended someone in Qihu Sea. Because the incident happened suddenly, he almost fled alone. He wandered around Qingli Sea for more than a hundred years before coming to Xuanyang Sea to practice.
After the establishment of Yanxia League, Xie Yanxia naturally had no shortage of beauties, but because of his high cultivation, it was not easy to have children. Although Xie Yanxia had taken in many concubines over the years, he only had three children. Although he had a high cultivation and the Yanxia League was not weak, the Xie family did not take root in Xuanyang Sea.
Without the burden of relatives, Xie Yanxia could naturally move freely and come and go like the wind.
There were eleven purple mansion elders under the entire Yanxia League, two of whom were disciples accepted by Xie Yanxia. Like Xie Yanxia, these two were outsiders and could practice anywhere. Of course, they unconditionally agreed with Xie Yanxia's decision.
The other two were killed by Zhang Zhixuan in the last battle. There were only seven local purple mansions left, such as Yang Juncheng and Lu Xiqing.
They were local tyrants, each occupying several islands. Although they did not dare to violate Xie Yanxia's decision, they were unwilling to give up their foundation and leave the familiar environment.
Once they chose to leave, it was impossible to carry all the clansmen on the treasure ship. They could only give up most of them and choose those who were close to them.
Moreover, this migrating treasure ship fleet went to an unfamiliar environment, and naturally they had to fight for territory and fight with local forces. At that time, the future was uncertain. If the treasure ship was sunk, it was very likely that the relatives would die.
Xie Yanxia's determination to leave naturally made the monks below feel uneasy. Since Xie Yanxia was unreliable, although they did not dare to oppose it openly, they had already planned to find another backer.
Just when Xie Yanxia was planning to find another place to stay, the Kongming Stone Mine was on the right track, and the third-level spirit vein was cultivated on Quyang Island. The six foundation-building monks on the island had already started to dig the veins, and the monthly output was also very gratifying.
Even at the beginning of the excavation, the Kongming Stone produced in the first month was worth 400 Lingshi. After half a year, the Kongming Stone produced in a month increased fivefold to more than 2,000 Lingshi. The benefit of this mine has exceeded the Chaoyin Mountain Lingshi Mine by several points.
If more manpower and more investment are added, according to Qingchan's estimate, the output can be increased by more than four times. The Kongming Stone mined in a year is worth at least 80,000 Lingshi. Even if all the cultivators in the Yu Kingdom are added together, this mine can supply all of them.
Just when Xie Yanxia was ready to retreat, Zhang Zhixuan also kept his promise and gave Xie Yanxia a sum of Lingshi every month according to the contract, which made him put down his worries. In the first year alone, he was given a profit of tens of thousands of Lingshi.
Zhang Zhixuan naturally would not sell the mined Kongming Stone on Xuanyang Island, but put it all in a storage bag to take back to Qingxuan Sect.
As the situation on Dafang Island became more and more complicated, it became increasingly difficult to cope with it relying on Zhang Zhixuan and the other two alone. This time when he returns, he plans to tell Liu Guyan about the intercontinental teleportation array and ask Liu Guyan to dispatch some masters to Dafang Island.
Zhang Zhixuan will not hide the sect's ancestor Jin. After all, Qingxuan Sect has three Jindan-stage cultivators, which is also a considerable force. He plans to share the benefits of this side through three parties. Even if Huanshui Sect can get Liu Guyan's consent, Zhang Zhixuan will let them share a share.
Yang Juncheng and Lu Xiqing of Yanxia League have had grudges with Dafang Island. Unlike Xie Yanxia, they are far less knowledgeable than Xie Yanxia. They did not see Qingchan's footsteps, and did not realize that Dafang Island has become the center of the storm.
After noticing the news that Xie Yanxia was about to leave, Yang Juncheng, Lu Xiqing and others were of course unwilling to surrender to Dafang Island. Instead, they chose to leak the news of the Kongming Stone Mine to Xuanyang Sect, hoping to use the power of Xuanyang Sect to suppress Dafang Island, and then use the power of Xuanyang Sect to stop the expansion and invasion of Dafang Island.
The news of the Kongming Stone Mine was of great importance, and immediately alarmed He Luochou, the head of Xuanyang Sect. The sect's supreme elder was in seclusion, and the power of Xuanyang Sect fell into the hands of He Luochou and Bai Yuzhu.
There were nine Jindan-stage cultivators in Xuanyang Sect. Except for one who was traveling outside, two were transferred to Jiaolong Sea to participate in the war between human cultivators and monsters, and the remaining six were in Xuanyang Island.
After receiving the news of the Kongming Stone Mine, He Luochou did not dare to neglect it. He quickly summoned six Jindan elders and informed them of the news, preparing to send troops to Dafang Island and Yanxia League to control the Kongming Stone Mine.
After all six people arrived, He Luochou said: "Xie Yanxia is at the fifth level of Jindan, and he has a fleet of treasure ships. To deal with him, you need a Jindan cultivator and a fourth-level upper-grade treasure ship to cooperate with him to ensure success. However, we have an insider in the Yanxia League. As long as the battle can be stalemate, it is possible to rely on the insider to win. Moreover, according to Xie Yanxia's personality, he may not dare to be an enemy of the sect, and I am afraid he will choose to escape.
The origin of the cultivators on Dafang Island is mysterious. It is estimated that they are also dragons from outside. However, I mobilized the archives of Chiyun Tower and found that their leader is only a second-level Jindan cultivator. The fleet of treasure ships is also relatively weak. It is estimated that they are not as good as Xie Yanxia. Only one Jindan cultivator and a fourth-level middle-grade treasure ship can win."
Although Xuanyang Sect is the overlord of this sea area, it only has two fifth-level treasure ships, one of which is a fifth-level lower-grade treasure ship fighting in Jiaolong Sea and not in Xuanyang Sea. The other fifth-level middle-grade treasure ship was damaged in the battle many years ago and is still under repair.
Although there are five or six fourth-grade high-quality treasure ships accumulated, two of them are in Jiaolong Sea, and the remaining three are still cruising near Xuanyang Island. In fact, not too much force can be withdrawn to attack the enemy.
The six Jindan of the sect will have to leave two to protect the old ancestor Mo, and one will stay at the mountain gate. There are only three people who can really take action.
After hearing He Luochou's words that underestimated the enemy, Bai Yuzhu frowned.
Although she and He Luochou have serious competition, and she may not have thought about making him suffer a bloody head, but in the overall situation of the sect, they are all people on the same path, and they will all prosper and suffer together.
If Xuanyang Sect suffers a bloody head on Dafang Island, with heavy casualties, and also attracts the hostility of the third-level Yuanying cultivator Liu Lingjun, the situation of Xuanyang Sect will be very tight.
Bai Yuzhu pondered for a moment, frowned slightly and said: "Brother He, don't act rashly. There are masters behind the cultivators on Dafang Island. Let's wait for Uncle Mo to come out of retreat before making a decision."
The Jindan cultivators present were all smart people. When they heard Bai Yuzhu say this, they knew that the back of Dafang Island must involve Yuanying, and their faces immediately became solemn.
He Luochou's eyes lit up and he said, "It seems that Senior Sister Bai knows the monks of Dafang Island very well."
"Sixing, some of the conversations involve the Netherworld Blood Oath and you can't listen in. You should go back to Chiyun City and take charge." Bai Yuzhu turned around and drove Bai Sixing away.
Bai Sixing had signed the Blood Oath Contract, so it was impossible for him to help deal with Zhang Zhixuan and others, and he couldn't tell their secrets to outsiders. Bai Yuzhu knew it clearly, mainly because he inquired from the side and behind the scenes, and secretly met Qingchan to confirm it.
