Chapter 69
Wolves are fuel for rage.
There is no wolf at all when two angry women are arguing and bickering with each other.
If things were allowed to develop like this, then the result of things might really be that Xu Miaoran pushed Tang Jie onto Shen Qingdan's bed, even if he did it to extremes, he might even watch them perform.
Fortunately...or unfortunately, it was only Xu and Chen who lost the wolf, not Tang Jie.
So after flying for a short distance, Tang Jie shook off the two of them and said, "Have you guys had enough trouble?"
The two girls watched Tang Jie together.
Tang Jie sighed and said to Xu Miaoran, "You don't really want me to climb into her bed, do you?"
Then look at Shen Qingdan: "You don't really want to consummate the house with me, do you?"
In the end, he spread his hands together: "Actually, it's something that neither of us thinks about, why do it for a moment of enthusiasm?"
Xu Miaoran snorted: "What am I afraid of, who doesn't have three wives and four concubines? Just treat me as a man who married a concubine."
Shen Qingdan's apricot eyes widened: "Joke, am I still afraid of consummating the house with my husband? Also, you better understand that you are the concubine if you really let you into the Tang family!"
Xu Miaoran was furious, and retorted: "Okay, you will be the wife, and you will be the widow's wife for the rest of your life!"
Shen Qingdan also said angrily: "If you remain a widow, you are better than a witch who seduces men. The witch of Tianyahai Pavilion really deserves her reputation!"
Xu Miaoran: "It's better than a wild woman who comes out of nowhere. How can you covet my Tianyahai Pavilion?"
Shen Qingdan: "No matter how small my Xiaoyao Palace is, I am still a young master. No matter how big the Tianyahai Pavilion is, it does not belong to you! You are only the daughter of a real king, and you can't be called the young master of Tianyahai Pavilion. .”
Tang Jie patted his forehead: "Here we go again."
Finally, the two women stopped talking about consummating their marriage, and somehow the topic changed, and they spontaneously turned to status, and neither of them had the intention to turn it back.
Xu Miaoran is the daughter of the big faction, and Shen Qingdan is the young master of the small faction, so they are almost the same, so they are unambiguous when it comes to being a father, and they are not willing to give in. Finally, they are in the air now, and they no longer have to attract countless onlookers when they quarrel like before-to be honest, they have become a bit of a shrew after the quarrel, and it is really no longer suitable for people to see.
Tang Jie only felt a headache for a while, and couldn't help but shouted: "I said, have you guys had enough trouble?"
This roar was full of arrogance and a bit of majesty. As expected, the two girls stopped at the same time and looked at Tang Jie together.
Tang Jie took a deep breath, and then said: "You are the daughter of a true monarch, and a young master of carelessness, both of you are cultivators. What does it look like to be arguing here? Is there anything you can't sit down and talk about? It's nothing at all, why bother to make a fuss because of a servant girl's ignorant words?"
Xu Miaoran and Shen Qingdan looked at each other, snorted at the same time, turned their heads away from each other, although they were still angry, they finally stopped arguing.
In fact, they also knew that such arguing was extremely indecent, but they couldn't let go of their anger for a while, and Tang Jie stopped them at this moment, so they stopped.
Only then did Tang Jie say to Shen Qingdan: "The cause of this matter is still on that little maid, in fact, after that day, Miao Ran has already punished her. In this matter, I will accompany you on her behalf."
Seeing him like this, Shen Qingdan snorted: "That little girl is really hateful, she even said that I came after a man, she really has no tutor."
She pointed at Sang and scolded Huai, Xu Miaoran was about to change her face, but Tang Jie stopped her, turned her head and said to Shen Qingdan: "By the way, I haven't asked you why you came to Yahai?"
Tang Jie's question was level, in fact, he deliberately gave Shen Qingdan a chance to explain to dispel her anger, and also to change the topic in time.
Sure enough, after hearing this, Shen Qingdan turned pale and said: "I came to Yahai this time because I was entrusted by someone to open a fairy palace."
"Xianjia Xinggong?" Tang Jie was slightly stunned, never expecting Shen Qingdan to give him such an answer.
The so-called Xianjia Xinggong is actually a palace-style magic weapon or treasure. Due to their size, this kind of treasure can lay a large number of magic circles and restrain them, so it is often powerful.
Tianyahai Pavilion and Xiaoyao Palace are all famous fairy palaces, and even the sect is named after it, which shows its value.
Tang Jie didn't expect that Shen Qingdan came here for this, so he blurted out, "What palace?"
Shen Qingdan shook her head: "I don't know either."
It turned out that three months ago, Shen Qingdan suddenly received a message in Xiaoyao Palace, saying that there would be a fairy palace in Yahai, and wanted to ask Shen Qingdan to help open the palace. Most of the resources are donated.
Because Xiaoyao Palace has its own palace treasures, it has lived in it for many years and traveled everywhere. It is best at opening all kinds of closed fairy palaces. Even Tianyahaige is no better than them in this regard.
Xiaoyao Palace had also accepted such invitations before, but this time, because it said that most of the resources in the palace would be given to the invitation, Shen Qingdan even came here in person. She never expected to encounter such a thing when she first arrived in Yahai.
"So that's the case, so you still have the mind to fight here?" Tang Jie said in a half-joking tone, trying to ease the atmosphere as much as possible.
Shen Qingdan glared at Tang Jie angrily: "I don't know where the fairy family's palace is. The entrusted person has not yet appeared, so I can only wait. Anyway, idle is idle..."
Tang Jie smiled and said, "That person is not playing tricks on you, is he?"
Shen Qingdan rolled his eyes at him again: "Do you think everyone is as dishonest as you? The entrusting person has put down a deposit of 100,000 spiritual coins. If he really does not perform the contract, I will be happy to earn it for nothing. Besides, if it weren't for that The person has not yet appeared, you think I can tell you this casually?"
Tang Jie cupped his hands: "Thank you, miss, for speaking out about this matter, and I will spare you."
"That's all." Shen Qingdan lazily said: "It's better to restrain the servants in the future."
Then he turned around and left.
Seeing Shen Qingdan leaving just like that, Tang Jie and Xu Miaoran looked at each other, then they jumped to the ground and laughed out loud at the same time.
Tang Jie smiled and said, "Have you enjoyed it? I really didn't realize that you still have such a hot temper."
Xu Miaoran groaned and replied: "Besides, if it wasn't for your face, I wouldn't have spared her."
Seeing that her mouth is still so stubborn, Tang Jie sighed: "If I knew this, I wouldn't stop you from pulling me to consummate the house with her."
Xu Miaoran stared with phoenix eyes: "How dare you!"
She put her hands on her hips: "This girl is testing you to see if you have the evil intentions. At last, you are still sensible. If...if..."
After talking about the scene, she couldn't continue herself, and she didn't know what she thought of, so she covered her face and laughed.
Seeing her like that, Tang Jie was also speechless, so he gave her a hand and said, "Look at your silly smile, let's go."
"Where to go?"
"Go back to the inn, Yiyi sent a message saying that someone is looking for me..."
———————
Back at the inn, Tang Jie saw Yiyi coming out, and said, "He's waiting for you in the inner hall."
Tang Jie nodded and went in, and saw a person pacing back and forth in the inner hall with an anxious expression on his face, but it was the old man Yun Chang, the captain of the ship that Tang Jie had rescued not long ago.
Seeing Tang Jie coming in, old man Yun rushed forward and said, "Young master Tang, you've come back, please help my Yun family this time!"
"Mr. Yun, please get up." Tang Jie hurriedly helped the old man up: "If you have anything to say slowly, is there something wrong with the Ruixue?".
The old man shook his head: "The Ruixue is fine, we have returned from Qianfan Island. But the Yun family is about to face disaster..."
Following the old man's words, Tang Jie understood what had happened.
The Yun family was originally one of the four Yahai families located on Lingfeng Island, with strong financial resources and many spiritual masters in the family.
The Yun family's main business is the silver scale trade. Silver scales come from a species of siren, the barracuda. It is named for its slender body like a shuttle and its sharp mouth like a gun. This fish swims extremely fast and has silver scales. It is a relatively rare material for cultivating immortals. Barracudas are mainly concentrated in Leshan Island and Nanxing Island, which belong to the affiliated islands of the Yun family, so the sea area in this area has always been controlled by the Yun family.
About forty days ago, the fishermen of the Yun family went fishing and encountered a school of pike. At that time, the fishermen on that boat tried to catch this school of barracuda with a special silver silkworm net made by the Yun family. Although the barracuda belongs to the sea monster, it is born with a low rank and poor strength. It can be easily caught by well-prepared fishermen. Occasionally, it is high-ranked, and even a local spiritual master is enough to deal with it.
But this time the situation was different.
Somehow, that school of barracudas broke through the Yun family's silver silkworm net. Not only that, but also took the initiative to attack the fishermen of the Yun family, killing most of the fishermen on the spot, and only three of them ran away in the boat.
After this incident, the Yun family sent three spiritual masters.
But the result surprised them, none of the three spiritual masters came back.
The Yun family didn't dare to underestimate this matter, so they could only mobilize all the spirit masters to explore the sea and see what happened. As a result, they encountered the well-known tyrannical creatures in that area, the Sawtooth Shark and the Octopus.
More than 20 spiritual masters from the Yun family fought against thirteen medium-level sawtooth sharks, two high-level octopus giants, and some other sea monsters.
The result of this battle was unexpected, because the loser turned out to be the side with more people and superiority.
The spiritual masters of the Yun family were defeated, more than a dozen spiritual masters died on the spot, only seven escaped back, and only three of them were seriously injured.
Under such circumstances, the Ruixue, which was facing the task of going to sea, had to give up the escort of the spiritual master and go on the road alone. If Tang Jie hadn't made a timely move, the Ruixue would have been finished.
Apart from delivering the goods, Ruixue's mission this time is to immediately recruit enough spiritual masters for the Yun family. The defeat in this battle had a profound impact on the Yun family. Not only has the income of fish products been greatly reduced, but other companies are also eager to move.
It's a pity that healers can't be hired with money. Although Yun Changan offered a high price for this, there are very few applicants. So far, Yun Changan has only invited two healers.
And at this time, the crisis of the Yun family came again.
Just as Yun Changan was rushing to Lingfeng Island with the two spiritual masters and Yiyi, he received a letter from the Yun family. It turned out that just seven days ago, Leshan Island, the foundation of the Yun family, was besieged by sea monsters.
It is not uncommon for the sea monster to attack the island before.
Every time the number of sea monsters floods and their strength grows, they will arouse the ferocity of the sea monsters, and even unite to attack humans proactively.
The Sawtooth Shark, the Giant Octopus, and even the Overlord of that area, the Faceless Dragon, all appeared one after another, attacking Leshan Island.
After all, Leshan Island has been managed by the Yun family for a hundred years, and all kinds of defense measures are complete. The Yun family relies on the favorable location to defend Leshan Island, but the situation of the Yun family is getting more and more pessimistic as waves of sea beasts rush in.
Under such circumstances, the Yun family's biography came into Yun Chang'an's hands, and the patriarch ordered Yun Chang'an to invite a powerful spiritual master to save the Yun family no matter what, otherwise the loss of Leshan Island would mean the loss of the Yun family. .
Poor old man Yun is a mere mortal, so he doesn't know any powerful spiritual masters. At this time, the rumors of Tang Jie and Xu Miaoran just entered his ears. The old man seemed to have picked up a life-saving straw, and rushed to find Tang Jie.
In fact, what he really wants to beg is Xu Miaoran, but he also knows that his status is low and he is not qualified to beg Xu Miaoran, so he can only find Tang Jie.
After understanding what had happened, Tang Jie thought for a while and said, "There is one thing I don't quite understand. Isn't Yahai always under the governance of the major factions? Since Leshan Island is in an emergency, why don't you just ask Tianyahaige to help? Pai is enshrined by the world, so it will naturally eliminate disasters for the world."
Old Man Yun lamented: "We also think about it, but Leshan Island is not directly under the Tianyahai Pavilion. This place is under the management of Qiongya Pavilion. Qiongya Pavilion has already sent a spiritual master to help, but the sea monster is so powerful that it spreads far and wide. , is far more than just one Leshan Island. Qiongya Pavilion can’t stand alone, and it’s struggling to survive. It’s said that there’s even a monster in the main part of Qiongya Pavilion.”
"So that's how it is." Tang Jie understood.
He didn't ask why Qiongya Pavilion didn't ask Tianyahai Pavilion for help. As a disciple of the Xiyue Sect, he was very clear about the relationship between the major sects.
Unless it is an invasion by foreign enemies, if it is a general danger, it is no problem for the small sects below to ask for help, but they have always had to pay huge fees, and sometimes they have to agree to some harsh conditions.
This is what the worship hall of the Xiyue Sect does. Whenever there is any difficulty in sending down the sect, Yan Changfeng will rush there with a pen in his left hand and a sword in his right. Sign unequal treaties, hand over a lot of benefits, and swing your sword, all crises will be eliminated.
It should be because of this reason that Qiongya Pavilion is not willing to ask for Tianyahai Pavilion unless necessary. They can hold on, and it is the Yun family with limited strength that suffers.
Leshan Island was under siege, and the situation of the Yun family was in dire straits, so the old man was sent everywhere to ask for help.
Hearing Old Man Yun's words, Tang Jie also sighed.
However, although he sympathized, he could only say: "I'm sorry, I can't help you with this matter."
"Young Master Tang!" Yun Changan had already shouted.
Tang Jie still just shook his head: "Let Tianya Haige send people to rescue, this is suspected of interfering. After all, I am not from Yahai, I am just a passerby from outside, and I am not qualified to say such things or do such things. I Although we are good friends with Ms. Xu, I can't lose my duty because of this, and I can't see myself clearly. As for myself, I am only a rank nine cultivator, and it won't help the overall situation if I go. Besides, I still have my own things to do, so ...I can only apologize."
Yun Changan's heart went cold when he heard it. He looked at Tang Jie for a while, and then suddenly yelled loudly: "What's your business? Aren't you just traveling with the lady from the Xu family?".
This can be said to be a violation of the following, but Tang Jie could understand the old man's mood and anxiety, and in the end he just frowned and said nothing.
Yun Changan was already crying bitterly.
He shook his body and walked out, loudly said: "What kind of cultivators are just a group of selfish and greedy ghosts! What kind of immortals who cultivate, seek longevity, immortality, freedom, and invincibility are not for their own sake. Selfishness. There is no world in my heart, but I want to surpass the world, idiots talk about dreams, daydreams, Huangliang dreams!"
The old man lashed out with three dreams in one breath, laughing wildly at the sky.
He walked out of the inn and shouted to the sky: "The way of heaven has no eyes! The way of heaven has no heart! The way of heaven has no benevolence!"
He shouted loudly, and some of the island owner's guards tried to grab the old man, but Tang Jie stopped him. He looked at Yun Chang'an and said, "Let him say...he was right. What kind of cultivator is originally A group of selfish ghosts who only know how to take advantage of their own profits, but don’t know how to fulfill their responsibilities. In this Qixia Realm, some people have never been natural disasters, but evil spirits.”
A guard said: "But this person is so bold that he dares to criticize even the Dao of Heaven."
"Let's criticize." Tang Jie said indifferently: "If the way of heaven has eyes, a thunder from heaven will come down and kill him. Since the way of heaven doesn't care about it, why should people care about it?"
The guard was speechless, and should have retreated in the end.
Yun Changan shouted on the long street, walking with disheveled hair.
A rumbling thunder suddenly sounded in the sky, which startled Tang Jie.
However, the thunder and lightning did not strike the old man to death, instead, it rained heavily.
In the rainy night, Tang Jie looked at the old man's back, and felt a sense of desolation in his heart.
"Are you a little regretful?" Xu Miaoran's voice sounded from behind him.
Tang Jie didn't turn his head back: "Did you hear everything?"
Xu Miaoran said kindly: "Actually, don't say it's you, even if it's me, I can't interfere in Haige's affairs at will. Although I am the daughter of the real king, but when the six major factions act, it is up to a little county lord to decide Is it?"
"I know, but anyway, I'm selfish."
"It's us...we are selfish." Xu Miaoran replied, she looked at Tang Jieyu with a smile and said, "Whether it's good or bad, I will decide and act together with you. Next time there is such a thing, remember Don't leave me alone."
Tang Jie was stunned for a moment.
He stretched out his hand and grabbed Xu Miaoran's waist.
This movement made Xu Miaoran's body stiffen suddenly, and then loosened up bit by bit.
"Let's go, let's go back to the room." Tang Jie said.
"What are you going back to the room for?" Xu Miaoran only felt her heart beating wildly like a deer.
"Silly girl." Tang Jie scratched her nose lightly: "I just want to talk to you in a place where no one is around."
Only then did Xu Miaoran's heart relax.
"Of course, if you want to do something else, I have no problem."
Xu Miaoran was so ashamed that she slapped Tang Jie on the back: "Go to hell, pervert!"
