Chapter 575
: After supporting Qiao Wuyong’s departure, Fang Xing was flipping through the “Qi Gathering Technique” and playing with the flying squirrel bag, and he was quite happy.

Suddenly, an idea came to him, and he looked at a figure in the bamboo forest: “Old Lu…you are here? It seems that the caravan has left.”

“Yes, Qiao Wuyong is a good guy. He gave us a big advantage this time.”

Old Lu smiled so hard that the wrinkles on his face seemed to bloom.

Fang Xing knew this very well. It is the nature of a businessman to make every last penny. The reason why he was willing to give Dulongpo a bargain was 99% likely because he knew how powerful he was.

In other words, it’s all about human relationships!
“Well, then what are you doing here?”

Fang Xing frowned.

Old Lu was old, his cultivation was not high, and he had not practiced any spiritual eye techniques, so his cultivation level was not discovered.

Once you have mastered the art of gathering energy, even Tie Luosan will find it difficult to detect you.

“I came here specially to ask for a cup of tea… Why, Brother Fang doesn’t welcome you?”

Old Lu laughed.

“Of course you are welcome.”

Fang Xing immediately took out the tea set, and the two sat opposite each other in the bamboo forest.

Old Lu held the teacup in his hand, looking at the steam on the tea soup, his eyes gradually blurred. “Unconsciously, I have settled in Dulongpo for five years… I finally don’t have to set up a stall in Yunlaifang to make a living. Thinking about it, it really seems like just a day ago.”

“I have always admired your courage, Old Lu.”

Fang Xing took a sip of tea and answered casually: “Not only the land reclamation, but also the last time we gathered all our strength to help Tie Luosan break through the seventh level of Qi Sensing…”

For this purpose, Old Lu even swallowed his pride and borrowed some money from him just to get enough money to buy the elixir.

Moreover, Old Lu had actually secretly instructed Fang Xing about that evil point, so that the aura it attracted was more suitable for Tie Luo Sanren to practice.

“Hey… I was forced to do that.”

Old Lu looked solemn, “At that time, we had not yet established a firm foothold. From the time we first started to explore, we encountered the monster black snake, which showed that there were still many hidden dangers. If it weren’t for Fellow Daoist Fang’s intervention, I’m afraid we would have either withdrawn in disgrace or lost several fellow Daoists…”

Development is like a snowball. If there had been too much damage at the beginning, Dulongpo would definitely not have developed so well now.

“My whole life has been like walking on thin ice… Even with the protection of the black snake, I still feel that I can’t reach the other side… I can only risk everything and help my second brother break through.”

Old Lu sighed, “Because of this matter, my third brother, fourth sister, and fifth sister have become somewhat estranged from me… Especially my fifth sister, who has only focused on Yunyun and basically ignored other matters.”

“I think Fellow Daoist Song has trained Yunyun well. Do you want to send her to Qingmu Ridge in the future?”

Fang Xing asked curiously.

“Maybe… maybe she wants to marry into a wealthy family and find a husband of her dreams.”

Old Lu said, “I agree with this as well. If we can get the help of a great family, our Dulongpo business will be truly stable.”

Fang Xing chuckled inwardly, knowing that the old man was finally going to get to the main point of the play.

“Do you know…the Fei family is going to change its head?”

Old Lu repeated the news that Qiao Wuyong had said before, and then said, “There are three people competing for the position of the head of the family… Fei Wu, Fei Cai, and Fei Shentong…”

Fang Xing immediately thought of the medicine garden manager: “Could it be… that you are interested in taking action?”

“Why not?” Old Lu smiled and said, “We have two powerful warriors at the Poison Dragon Slope who are at the latter stage of the Qi Sensing Realm… Among the five Qingli families, they are second only to the group of monsters in the White Bone Alliance.”

The White Bone Alliance is a group of independent cultivators who practice the same white bone skeleton magic. Since they acquired the burial ground, they have already cultivated two ‘white bone skeletons’ of the seventh level of sensing energy. Their strength is the best among the five Qingli families.

Well, this is the case when the Fei family is automatically excluded from the calculation.

“I think, Old Lu, you don’t know your own weight? We are a group of Qi Sensing Realm cultivators, and we want to influence the inheritance of the Patriarch of the Daoji Family?”

Fang Xing sneered, his eyes thoughtfully: “How much are you prepared to invest?”

Old Lu had no choice.

After all, his daughter Xiao Cui married someone from Fei Cai’s family, so they have long been considered a family.

Otherwise, it wouldn’t have been so easy to save the Dragon King Ginseng last time.

“Even in the Fei family, there aren’t many experts at the later stage of sensing qi. Even if we count the hidden ones, there are no more than two palms of people…”

Old Lu said, “This time, the change of the head of the family is not a change of the Daoji Patriarch, so it is not a big deal for the Fei family… The Daoji Patriarch has always been idle and lazy to intervene. Many family elders are neutral… In fact, the power of each candidate is only one or two, two or three people in the late stage of Qi Sensing. Why can’t it have an impact?”

“Okay, then what do you say we should do? Just get rid of the other two candidates?”

Fang Xing asked back.

“Are you kidding me?” Old Lu was shocked. “This is a way to death. Do you really think that the Taoist Patriarch is dead?”

“There is no need to talk about ability and character in this election for the head of the family, and it is hard to explain… Therefore, we will only look at the family’s contribution. We have sent two seventh-level Qi sensing warriors to help Master Fei Cai complete a few family tasks, which is considered a great contribution.”

“Two powerful warriors at the late stage of sensing qi… are you interested in our island guardian sacred beast?” Fang Xing suddenly realized.

“We still need you to communicate with the sacred beast…” Old Lu said with a smile.

In fact, five years ago, the five friends of Fuyun still had some thoughts of getting rid of the donkey after it had served its purpose, but after seeing Black Snake and Fang Xing getting close, they gave up all the thoughts.

They were even a little worried that Fang Xing would use the Black Snake to eliminate the five of them one by one.

The strong support for Tieluo Sanren was an action taken under such fear.

“The black snake cannot leave the Qingli Swamp… What I mean is that it is enough to let Tie Luosanren go.”

Fang Xing shook his head and said, “The black snake is just right to protect our foundation. What do you think, fellow Taoist?”

“This…” Old Lu wanted to persuade him again, but he saw Fang Xing holding up the teacup, as if he was seeing someone off.

He could only grit his teeth and leave the bamboo forest.

…

East Peak.

Meeting room.

Tie Luo San Ren, Lin Xu, Hu Liu Niang, and Song Yun Qian were all there. When they saw Old Lu coming over with his hands behind his back, they hurried forward to ask, “Brother…what’s wrong?”

“That person didn’t agree to everything. He only agreed to let the black snake be responsible for the defense of Poison Dragon Hill when my second brother left the island…”

Old Lu spoke.

“Hmph… I’ve told you before that outsiders can’t be trusted.” Lin Xu snorted coldly.

Obviously, the relationship between them is not as bad as the outside world says.

The intention behind this is, of course, to confuse foreign enemies.

This external enemy could be the other four families, or it could be someone on the Poison Dragon Slope.

“Forget it… When we discussed it before, didn’t we all feel that this was the most likely outcome?”

Hu Liuniang smiled and said something fair: “That’s good. My second brother is away, and there is no cultivator at the later stage of the Qi Sensing Realm to guard the house. I always feel uneasy…”

“In that case, I don’t have anything to say…” Lin Xu shook his head.

Old Lu looked at Tieluo Sanren and said, “Second brother, I’m counting on you this time.”

What he didn’t tell Fang Xing was that he and Fei Cai were deeply involved, to the point where they would prosper together and suffer together.

Therefore, this time we must take action!

…

night.

The shadows of the trees are swaying in the bamboo forest.

Fang Xing was standing under a ‘Three Sacred Oaks’, reaching out to touch the bark. With his druid sense, he could feel the joy of the oak tree’s growth, as well as a sense of ignorance.

“It is too difficult for ordinary spiritual wood to develop spiritual intelligence, unless it is enlightened and becomes a tree man…”

“However, this is an ability only high-level druids have.”

At this moment, Fang Xing was in a state of harmony between man and nature, and he seemed to vaguely sense that these hundred acres of bamboo forest had become his territory.

Every flower, grass, and even any living creature in the area has a vague perception.

Even nature will take the initiative to tell him where the enemies are in the bamboo forest.

“The Druid’s Ecological Park, after it was finally upgraded, is almost the same as the Mage’s Mage Tower…”

In the later stages of the Druid profession, you can also build your own “Mage Tower”, which is actually a legendary ecological park.

And, depending on the animal and plant realms, they have different abilities.

For example, if the main area is plant, then it is possible to use an unimaginable giant tree as the core, summon multiple levels of tree people, and provide a large amount of supplies.

If we focus on the animal field, we can breed some legendary beasts and even induce benign mutations in extraordinary species.

It is said that some fallen druids involved in the weird field will actively create a radiation environment in their own ecological park to induce the mutation of a large number of bloody and ferocious animals and plants.

Regardless of which ecological park it is, it has the ability to sense and suppress the enemy.

To be honest, it can be regarded as a scaled-down version of the “Kingdom of God”.

Fang Xing was sighing when his expression suddenly changed.

Nature told him that an old friend had come somewhere in the bamboo forest.

He walked a distance away and saw a beautiful figure. It was Song Yunqian. “Why did Brother Song come to visit at night?”

“I just want to remind you that the battle for the head of the Fei family is not simple. Not only our Poison Dragon Slope, but also the Green Water Song Clan and the Buried Bone Alliance are involved…”

Song Yunqian said: “The Song clan supports Fei Wu, and the White Bone Alliance supports Fei Shentong… The Song clan is very close to our Poison Dragon Slope. If they knew that my second brother had left, they might attack us… After all, when we made the alliance, it specifically referred to the years of land reclamation, and now the land reclamation has passed… And my third brother is very dissatisfied with you.”

“Thank you for the reminder, fellow Taoist.”

Fang Xing smiled and said, “I wonder what else you would like to ask for, fellow Taoist?”

“As for me, all I want is to watch Yunyun grow up in peace…” Song Yunqian sighed softly.

After Song Yunqian left, Fang Xing was going back to his room to sleep. Suddenly, he looked a little amused: “What is this? Six people have seven groups? You come to tell on me right after the meeting?”

He turned over and sat up, and saw the door open, and a gust of fragrant wind rushed in…
