After Li Sen retrieved the upgraded Jin Geng Sword, he returned directly to his mansion in the Star Mansion. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Afterwards, Li Sen hung a sign at the door to avoid guests and began to retreat and practice. Prepare to refine that jade spirit pill within half a month.

As an extremely rare and top-grade elixir in the human world, a jade spirit pill can increase Li Sen's current cultivation realm by as much as half a percent. Don't underestimate this half-percent gap, in the life-and-death battle of many Jindan stage monks, such a little extra spiritual power is very likely to reverse the tide of the battle and lay a chance for victory.

This time, Li Sen's retreat did not inform many Shang Alliance monks, including Wei Rulong. Only a handful of port executives, including Yanagi, Juan and Ikeda, knew about it. Therefore, the news of Li Sen's retreat in the Star Mansion almost did not attract any attention in the Star City.

In this way, Li Sen cultivated peacefully in this mansion for half a month without being disturbed in any way.

......

Half a month later, Li Sen walked out of the mansion with a calm expression, and there was no difference from before on the surface. But the occasional glitter in his eyes was breathtaking, and it was obvious that his cultivation had made obvious progress.

However, Li Sen just took a deep breath, and directly hid the wisp of essence in his eyes, and reverted to the appearance of the usual secluded pool.

At this moment, if you look at it from a distance, except for a little deeper, there is nothing special about Li Sen's eyes at all. And the look on his face is just ordinary calm, and there is nothing that will make people care.

In short, if Li Sen is casually thrown on the street at this moment, I am afraid that he will be unnoticed, and he will not be able to attract anyone's attention at all, let alone arouse anyone's vigilance.

Even if someone knew that Li Sen was a Jindan period monk, I am afraid that they would subconsciously regard Li Sen as an ordinary existence without any threat.

If it were other Jindan Stage Ancestors, I am afraid that they would be annoyed that they had no sense of existence. But Li Sen was extremely satisfied with this state.

After touching his chin, Li Sen glanced around, and found that there was no trace of the monks around, and after no one paid attention to him, Li Sen took a step and quietly left the Star Mansion.

After leaving the Star Mansion, Li Sen went straight to the Wisdom Pavilion.

The journey was relatively peaceful, but after Li Sen came to the Weide Pavilion, he was recognized by a monk of the Shangmeng who was about to teleport out of the Weide Pavilion.

"Huh, isn't this Li Sen?"

"What!?Leeson here?"

In an instant, many of the monks in the Weide Pavilion looked sideways at Li Sen. Soon, these people showed a look of curiosity on their faces and looked Li Sen up and down.

"This guy is Li Sen, and he doesn't look very good in an ordinary way!"

"Shhh, you can eat food indiscriminately, and you can't talk nonsense. This Li Sen looks ordinary, but in fact he is an extremely powerful master. Wasn't that demon realm spy who was wandering in the human realm captured by him?"

"Hmph, what is this? It's just a small low-level ghost, and if it were me, it would be easy to catch. Sadly, I didn't have that luck. Otherwise, wouldn't that 'Jade Spirit Pill' be in my bag?"

"Hehe, don't be whimsical. Li Sen is not only strong, but also a celebrity in front of Elder Wei. If it weren't for that, even if he caught the spy, he wouldn't be able to reward him with a 'Jade Spirit Pill'!"

"Silence! Elder Wei is such a noble person, and you can chew your tongue at will? Instead of being envious and jealous here, it is better to hurry up and do tasks to earn contribution points. If you can save 300 contribution points, you will naturally have the opportunity to exchange for the Jade Spirit Pill. ”

Hearing this, those Shang Alliance monks who had originally looked Li Sen up and down and sneered at him were shocked, and then left the Weide Pavilion without saying a word.

When Li Sen saw this scene, his brows couldn't help frowning slightly.

But at this moment, Liu Xian, the steward of Weide Pavilion, hurriedly greeted him from behind the counter on the side, and arched his hand: "Governor Li is here?

"There is no business trip, it's just that Li is preparing to return to Xingang in Cai County today. ”

Li Sen replied casually, and then asked with a strange look: "Steward Liu, has something happened in the past few days? ”

"Hey, it's just a trivial matter, Governor Li is relieved, don't take it to heart. Why bother to be like those guys who have narrow hearts and eyes and blush others at every turn?" Liu Xian just comforted Li Sen.

Li Sen shook his head slightly and said, "There must be a reason for what Qianfu is referring to." Steward Liu doesn't have to be shy about it, please say it directly. ”

Liu Xian couldn't help but hesitate when he saw that Li Sen had to ask, but after he pondered for a moment, he still spoke: "It's easy to say, it's just that the news that you 'captured a demon realm spy and was rewarded with a jade spirit pill' a few days ago spread among the Shang Alliance. Therefore, many Jindan monks in the Shang Alliance had envy for Li Daoyou, so they said those words today. ”

When Li Sen heard this, he was slightly stunned: "The news has spread? How could this be? Could it be the news from the White Tiger Hall?"

"It's not the White Tiger Hall. The first place to get the news was from the Ministry of Internal Affairs, which was in charge of issuing the mission. Liu Xian explained, "The Internal Affairs Office updated a lot of new tasks a few days ago, most of which were tasks to sweep and investigate the demon spies in various parts of the Yuanyang Continent. And the task is heavy and the rewards are few, which makes many monks of the Shang Alliance a little dissatisfied. Therefore, these monks began to probe around, and finally locked the source of the news on Li Daoyou. ”

"I see. ”

When Li Sen heard this, he was a little surprised. But soon, Li Sen showed a trace of helplessness on his face: "It's no wonder that those monks of the Shang League pointed fingers at Li." You know, for the same sweeping and arresting mission, they have very few rewards. But Li was able to get a precious 'Jade Spirit Pill'. Even if this kind of thing is replaced by Li, I am afraid that there will be some resentment. ”

"That's it, that's it. What kind of person is Governor Li, how can he be idle and elegant to be angry with this group of mediocre people?" Liu Xian admonished.

"Hehe, Li is naturally not stingy to the point of holding grudges. Li is going to return to the port today, and he asked Steward Liu to make it convenient. Li Sen arched his hand.

"Governor Li is polite, the teleportation array you need has been prepared here, please. Liu Xian hurriedly led the way, looking very kind and polite.

Not long after, a spiritual light that rushed into the sky flashed in the Weide Pavilion, and Li Sen had already returned to the tower of Xingang in Caixian County.

After returning to Xingang, the teleportation fluctuations in the Gathering Star Pavilion had not completely disappeared, and Liu Yinyue hurriedly ran over to meet her.

"Li Lang, you're back! I've been waiting for you for a long time!"

Li Sen frowned immediately when he heard this, "What's the matter, something happened at the port?"

"Nothing happened, but someone came looking for you. ”

Liu Yinyue said: "It's the Nie family monk from the Red Maple Valley in Huizhou, Wu State, their envoy has been waiting at the port for three days, saying that he must see you before he is willing to leave." ”

"Nie family?" Li Sen couldn't help but feel a little strange when he heard this.

"Strange don't you think? I think it's strange too. Liu Yinyue said with a suspicious look on her face, "The relationship between the Nie family and our Gathering Star Business Alliance has always been ordinary, and it is not very close. Since the Sea Clan Grand Event, there has been no contact in the past few years, how could they suddenly think of sending an envoy over?"

At this moment, an old business came from the door.

"As for the reason, the old man has inquired in many ways in the past few days, and he already has an eyebrow. ”

With this voice, an old man with a sheep's beard in a blue robe walked into the living room, and it turned out to be Juan.

Juan first saluted Li Sen with a respectful look on his face, and then continued: "It is said that the Nie family has sent envoys to the major sects in the Wu Kingdom these days, saying that they are going to celebrate the birthday of their head Nie Qihai. ”

"Birthday?" Liu Yinyue said in surprise when she heard this, "Is it the four hundredth birthday of this old ghost?" But even so, it won't put on such a big show, right?

"I don't know. ”

Juan shook his head and continued: "Although Nie Qihai is only a Jindan Stage Ancestor, he is known as the first person in the Jindan Stage in the Wu Kingdom, and he has extremely strong strength. The Nie family is also an alchemy family that has been inherited for thousands of years, and it has quite a lot of heritage. Therefore, the sects and families in the territory of Wu basically sold Nie Qihai's face, and almost all of them sent messengers to congratulate their birthdays. Even the Wu Guoru Lord of the Yuanling Business Alliance, Bai Xiuzhu and the white old ghost, are said to have gone to cheer in person. ”

Hearing the words 'white old ghost', Li Sen couldn't help but look at Juan with a solemn expression.

"Didn't the Yuanling Business Alliance promise to take the initiative to withdraw from the Wu Kingdom half a year ago?

Juan smiled bitterly and replied, "The Yuanling Business Alliance has been operating in the Wu Kingdom for 10,000 years, and its power is deep-rooted. It's just that in the recent period of time, the monks of the Yuanling Business Alliance have been carrying their tails and carrying materials silently in the territory of Wu State, which can be said to be extremely low-key. Because of this, it has not been brought to our attention. ”

When Liu Yinyue heard this, a trace of worry appeared on her pretty face: "This old white ghost has always been shrewd, and because of the events of the year, he has formed a lot of bonds with Li Lang. This time, I really don't know if this old white ghost will take this opportunity to play any other tricks. Li Lang, since the old white ghost has gone to the Nie family, then you won't go, right? After all, he is a late Jindan monk, and he is not easy to mess with. ”

Hearing this, Li Sen pondered for a moment, and finally shook his head.

"Although the white old ghost is known for his shrewdness, Li is not afraid of him. You must know that when Li was still in the foundation building period, he was able to fight with him, but now it is already the Jindan period, and he can still be afraid that he will not succeed. Besides, the people of the Nie family deliberately staged such a big battle at such a difficult and tense juncture now, I am afraid it is not just as simple as 'celebrating birthday'. It is better for Li to go to the Nie family to meet the white old ghost, and by the way, observe and make friends with those sects and families of the Wu Kingdom. Li Sen said.

"Governor Li is reasonable, after all, we are going to celebrate our birthday on behalf of the Gathering Star Business Alliance, and the old ghost will not dare to oppose us openly. Moreover, almost all of the cultivators of the Wu Kingdom gathered in the Red Maple Valley, which could be called a grand event. We are absent from this event for no reason, and it will also break the face of our Gathering Star Business Alliance for no reason. Juan agrees.

"Cut, everyone cares so much about faces, I really don't know what you think. If you want to go, then go. I'll call the messenger of the Nie family to come up. Liu Yinyue waved her hand a little unhappily, and then prepared to leave to summon the messenger under the tower.

But when she was about to go out, she seemed to have remembered something temporarily, and she didn't look back, and added another sentence very casually.

"By the way, ten days ago, a woman named 'Nanxin' from the southern part of Xinjiang also came to look for you, but I told you that you had gone to retreat and cultivate, so this woman came back in a huff. But she said she would come back after a while. ”

After saying this, Liu Yinyue left the Juxing Pavilion without looking back.

"Nan Xin, what is she doing here?" Li Sen couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this.

Juan smiled bitterly, what Nan Xin was doing, where would he know.
