Chapter 304: The Wind Rises

In the quiet room, Xiao Mian sat cross-legged in meditation, refining the "Three Pure Ones Bible".

The fact that the God of Killing advanced to the Nascent Soul Patriarch during the day and challenged the Jade Hoe Patriarch made Xiao Mian feel more and more urgent. Even the Nascent Soul Patriarch who had been famous for many years, such as the Jade Hoe Patriarch, had the courage to challenge him. I think the situation in Wanzong City will be even worse in the future.

To protect oneself, at least the Golden Core Realm is required!

However, Xiao Mian is now at the last and biggest bottleneck before the Dan Formation. No matter how hard he practices, he cannot make the true qi in his body increase a little bit.

If the true qi in the body cannot continue to grow, it cannot be transformed from true qi to true essence!

If a cultivator in the foundation-building stage wants to form a pill smoothly, he must convert all the true qi in his body into true essence, then break the foundation, condense the golden pill, and thus trigger the heavenly tribulation. The tribulation that must be overcome during the process of forming a pill is commonly known as a small tribulation, which is relative to the big tribulation that must be overcome during the formation of an infant. Generally speaking, the danger of a small tribulation is not great. As long as the cultivator is fully prepared, basically seven or eight out of ten people can successfully overcome the tribulation and achieve a golden pill.

However, Xiao Mian is now stuck in the fact that the amount of true qi cannot continue to increase. As for the subsequent formation of a pill and tribulation, it is naturally even more distant.

"Hu..." After exhaling a breath of turbid air, Xiao Mian opened his eyes and frowned in deep thought. After a long time, Xiao Mian began to summon Guitou: "Ghost Master, do you have any good ideas?"

"Good ideas? Of course there are! You just need to take a gold-condensing fortune pill now, and the disease will be cured after taking the medicine, and your cultivation will soar all the way until you form a pill!"

"You talk as if I have an incurable disease!"

"Hmph! Don't even think about taking shortcuts! Bottlenecks are the most annoying thing. The most feared thing in cultivation is encountering bottlenecks. In the cultivation world, cultivators who encounter bottlenecks generally choose to travel, one to broaden their minds, two to look for opportunities, and three to find some strong enemies during their travels. Many cultivators After a fierce fight, the warriors suddenly got an epiphany, broke through the bottleneck of many years, and made rapid progress in their cultivation! "As he said this, Guitou's originally serious voice finally revealed a flaw, and he laughed sinisterly: "In Wanzong City today, are you still afraid that no one will fight you? Not to mention fighting, there are many people who want to fight you! Ha!"

"..., it is not unreasonable to understand after fighting and to establish after breaking! "

As he said this, Xiao Mian's originally somewhat irritable mood slowly calmed down, took a deep breath, closed his eyes again, and entered into meditation.

This time, Xiao Mian did not wake up until the evening of the next day, and it was not Xiao Mian who woke up on his own initiative, but was startled by something hanging around his waist.

Reaching out and pinching the jade that was constantly flashing a faint red light, Xiao Mian had a smug smile on his face. This jade could not transmit sound or imprint. It could only make a sound when the other half of the jade was summoned by the other party. As for the other half of the jade, it was in the hands of the girl in Tianyi Pavilion. Because the custom-made clothes for Xiao Mian and Ding Kaishan had to be completed in seven days, Xiao Mian left a piece of jade, saying that the clothes would be completed in the future, so that the girl could remind them to pick up the goods.

Unexpectedly, only a day and a half had passed, and the jade had played its role. It was obviously not for Xiao Mian to pick up the custom-made clothes.

In this case, it could only be her!

After injecting a little of his own true energy, the flashing red light of the jade gradually subsided, and then Xiao Mian stood up, pushed open the door, and walked out of the courtyard.

This time, Xiao Mian planned to go alone.

Now, Qi Zhizhai has revoked the hunting order against Xiao Mian, the God of Killing has sent a letter of challenge to the old ancestor Yuchu, and the Bai family is planning the wedding of Bai Jintang and Li Qingping in the near future. The seemingly turbulent situation has strangely calmed down. The last calm before the storm is the best time for Xiao Mian to meet Li Qingping.

Of course, before that, Xiao Mian still cautiously put on a human skin mask.

If someone with ulterior motives saw Xiao Mian and Li Qingping meeting, it would definitely not be a good thing for him or Li Qingping.

Xiao Mian came to Tianyi Pavilion with ease.

It was late, but Tianyi Pavilion was still brightly lit, and even the entire Tianmen District was like daytime - although the cultivators did not need so many lights to see things easily, the brightly lit night scene still showed the prosperity of Wanzong City.

As soon as he entered Tianyi Pavilion, Xiao Mian saw the girl who had received him before waiting anxiously at the door. Xiao Mian concentrated for a moment and walked towards her.

Xiao Mian showed the small sachet without leaving any trace, and nodded slightly to the girl. The girl was quite smart. After a moment of surprise, she led Xiao Mian into the inner hall of Tianyi Pavilion without saying a word, and led her to an exquisite private room.

"Didn't you say that it would take seven days to make the custom-made clothes?" Xiao Mian did not change his voice. When he spoke, the girl felt relieved. After hearing Xiao Mian's question, the girl explained awkwardly: "The custom-made clothes of Daoyou have not been made yet. I asked Daoyou to run this time because there is something else!"

"Oh? I don't know what it is?"

"This... Actually, there is a lady who wants to see Daoyou!"

Seeing that Xiao Mian did not show any displeasure, the girl felt relieved. After all, if Xiao Mian was a little more difficult, it would be troublesome to make a big deal.

How could she know that Xiao Mian was the one who was most afraid of making a big deal!

After thinking for a moment, the girl simply got straight to the point and told the whole thing.

When Xiao heard that Li Qingping had taken the bait and offered to meet him, he suppressed his excitement and made a reluctant expression.

Of course, Xiao Mian finally agreed to meet Li Qingping.

The girl walked out of the private room happily, obviously to invite Li Qingping. Xiao Mian took a deep breath, sat down on the chair, and waited for the young lady of the Li family.

Not long after, Li Qingping walked into the private room and closed the door.

"This fellow Taoist, you look quite familiar. Have we met somewhere before?" Sitting opposite Xiao Mian with grace, Li Qingping took the lead in opening the conversation. Xiao Mian was stunned when he heard this, but after thinking about it, he smiled and said, "I did go to the Yishouliu camp a few days ago, maybe I met you there!"

"So, everything that happened in Tianyi Pavilion was intentional by you? I wonder why you took so much trouble to bring me here?" Li Qingping remained calm, but she had obviously seen through Xiao Mian's trick of using Tianyi Pavilion to lure her to meet him. Xiao Mian secretly praised the girl in front of him, but asked instead, "It depends on whether you regard yourself as the young lady of the Li family, or whether you have already regarded yourself as the eldest lady of the Bai family. Different identities bring different opportunities!"

Li Qingping was stunned when she heard this, and her eyes looking at Xiao Mian were even more suspicious.

"I, Li Qingping, am naturally the daughter of the Li family, but I will soon be the eldest lady of the Bai family. Is there any conflict between the two?"

"There is no conflict between the two! But what if your father disagrees?" As soon as Xiao Mian finished speaking, Li Qingping suddenly stood up and stared at Xiao Mian with a cold look. Her whole body was tense, and it was obvious that she was going to fight if she disagreed. Seeing that Xiao Mian did not move after he finished speaking, Li Qingping sat down again, but her bright eyes were still fixed on Xiao Mian, and then she said word by word: "My father is dead!"

"The news of Senior Li's death has spread to everyone, but after all, he is not seen alive or dead. How can Miss Li be sure of this?"

Just kidding!

Li Mudao's body had long been placed in a cold stone box by Xiao Mian and buried in the Northern Wilderness Prairie, so naturally he was dead and his body was not found.

"My mother and my father had a heart-to-heart pendant, which was broken several years ago. My father must have been dead for a long time!" Seeing Xiao Mian nodded, Li Qingping smiled calmly and asked, "I have something I don't understand. I want to ask this Taoist friend! Logically speaking, my father should have died long ago. How do you know that he didn't want me to marry into the Bai family? Could it be that my father's death was related to you? And how did that four-leaf green duckweed bag end up in your hands?"

Four-leaf green duckweed bag is obviously the name of the small sachet.

Taking out the small sachet, Xiao Mian threw it to Li Qingping without even looking at it.

Li Qingping was obviously stunned when she caught the sachet. To outsiders, this thing might be just a small sachet, but Li Qingping knew that the four-leaf green duckweed bag was a high-grade storage magic weapon. It must have been in Xiao Mian's hands for a long time. It is impossible for the other party to not see any clues. How could he return it to her so easily?

"Senior Li didn't tell me how to open this thing, I guess you know it?" Xiao Mian shrugged helplessly, ignoring Li Qingping's gaze. Li Qingping was stunned for a moment and nodded, and then she reached out and touched the green duckweed flower on the sachet. Instead of pouring true energy into the sachet, she absorbed a huge and pure true energy from the sachet. Xiao Mian was stunned, but secretly cursed Li Mudao for being so dishonest: Who would have thought that the method of opening the sachet would be so against the will of heaven?

But before Xiao Mian could curse more, a sigh from Li Mudao rang out in the private room...
