Chapter 78: Golden Elixir Mid-Stage as a Maid

  Tuoba Qiurong sat quietly for a whole night. At the hour of the tiger, she opened her eyes. She stood in her bedroom, practicing her fierce flame spear.

  Tuoba Qiurong stood in a stance similar to the Funiu Pillar, her body seemingly still yet moving, her hands reaching forward as if grasping at something, as if she truly held a gun, her entire person like a flickering flame.

  Lieyan Gun is Tuoba Qiurong's military training, Leizhang Lao taught her Leifa Palm Thunder has made some progress, with an attack range of 100 meters, which is a good long-range attack method. As for her ghost face, it is her life-saving skill, and the only time she used it was in front of Liangshan.

  Tuoba Qiurong had been gone for a whole incense stick, and now it was early autumn, with a slight chill in the air indoors.

  The stake was finished, and Tuoba Qiurong began to make three simple movements: Zha! Tiao! Dou! The air immediately emitted a faint humming sound, as if there really was a gun shaking.

  The sky was slightly bright, and Taobao Qiurong's forehead also showed a slight sweat. Liangshan had not returned yet, and Taobao Qiurong's worried heart made her unable to continue practicing, so she stopped, let out a long breath, and walked out of the room door.

  Jin Zhanglao was busy in the kitchen of Xunfang Building with another outer door disciple, preparing breakfast for everyone.

  Before long, Yangming Shengzi came out of the room with a clear and refreshing spirit. Sima Yu and another future saint also emerged.

  Less than half a time, a group of people had a full meal, Tuoba Qiurong found that no one mentioned Liangshan.

  The sky has brightened, the bundles are all packed up, Xiong Hai is calling out in front to mount their horses and head towards the sunrise. At this moment, still no one mentions Liangshan. The green veins near Taobao Qiurong's temple begin to bulge and jump slightly.

  The three Yangming saints did not dare to fly in the city and got on their horses one after another.

  The horse's hooves clattered, the horse in front let out a loud snort, Xiong Hai was about to strike with his whip when Tuo Ba Qiu Rong couldn't help but say, "Liang Shan Bo hasn't returned yet."

  "Oh, I forgot." said Yangming Shengzi, slapping his forehead.

  Tuoba Qiurong was secretly annoyed in her heart, and this person waited for herself to ask.

  "Shengzi sent him to Huajiantang, this kid is probably trapped in the red powder trap and can't extricate himself." Quanshengzi said.

  "We'll go, no matter what he says." said Sima Yu, a quasi-saint, while glancing at Tuoba Qiurong.

  Tuoba Qiurong suddenly felt a surge of anger, it seemed that everyone knew that Yangming Shengzi was going to deal with Liangshan Bo, but they all pretended not to know.

  The rules seem strict, but for a Golden Elixir middle-stage saint to take action against an outer sect disciple in the initial stage of foundation building is like crushing a stinky bug. As long as it's not direct action, if something unexpected happens outside, which inner hall would really go investigate?

  "Please let Saint Son allow Taoba Qiurong to go and find him!" Taoba Qiurong cupped his hands.

  Simu Yu's face immediately turned somewhat pale, his eyes repeatedly hinting to Tuoba Qiurong not to speak rashly. But Tuoba Qiurong had already spoken, and if she didn't say it, the words wouldn't come out smoothly.

  Yangming Shengzi's face sank, and he said, "Tuoba Qiurong, do I need you to teach me how to do things?" As soon as he finished speaking, a vast and powerful aura rushed towards him. Tuoba Qiurong still stared at him with wide eyes, unafraid.

  "You are the key to this trip, don't branch out unnecessarily." Yangming Shengzi withdrew his gaze, a killing intent flashed by, and he shouted loudly at Xiong Hai: "Let's go!" Before the words had fallen, three riders rushed forward from ahead, with Liangshan in the middle.

  "Hey, how can you all leave without waiting for me? That's not very considerate."

  Tuoba Qiurong's face lit up with joy, but Yangming Shengzi was taken aback, holding the reins tightly, his face filled with a look of shock and uncertainty, his eyes flashing with a fierce light.

  Liáng Shān Bó has actually come back!

  The flower has no color, it won't misunderstand its own heart's intention, trapping Liang Shanbo in the Tea Forest Formation, activating the formation to suppress him. Naturally, Liang Shanbo arrived at that "bewildering to death" Huayueying Forbidden Land.

  Joking aside, Liangshan Bo saw that Huayueying, who was bathing in the lake, could still come back to life. Isn't this seeing a ghost in broad daylight? What's going on here?

  Even if Huayueying recognizes the true nature of Huawuyan and his intentions, Liangshanbo is still doomed to die. Huawuyan is already at odds with Huayueying anyway, so adding this to the mix won't make a difference, but it will cause great trouble for Huayueying, making it a clever plan that kills two birds with one stone.

  Yang Ming's eyes widened in shock, he had forgotten how long it had been since he was so surprised.

  When Yang Ming Sheng Zi saw two women beside Liang Shan, his facial expression became even more colorful.

  The flowers are full of red, the flowers are full of green. These two women are both high-ranking masters in Jindan who are not inferior to themselves, and they are the confidantes of Huayueying. How did they return with Liangshanbo together? As soon as he thought of this, Yangming Shengzi secretly guarded against it.

  Liáng Shān rode his horse up to Xīonghǎi and pointed with his whip, saying: "Little Red, Little Green, this is my fellow disciple, brother and sister, quickly greet them!"

  "Nice to meet you all, seniors!" said Hua Manhong and Hua Manting with a bow.

  Xiong Hai and those inner disciples behind him were all staring with their eyes wide open, almost drooling.

  Simayu's body swayed, almost falling off the horse. Guan Huaman and Hua Manting were called "Xiao Hong Xiao Cui", which was a term used to call maidservants, but these two women actually acknowledged it with a sweet smile, this...this is too bizarre!

  Tuoba Qiurong couldn't help but laugh. This was the Liang brother she knew, always full of unexpected surprises.

  "Sister-in-law, your senior brothers and sisters aren't very good, are they?" Hongyan said in a soft voice.

  Brother-in-law?

  "Liangshan Bo, what's going on?" Yangming Shengzi said in a low voice, his face turning cold.

  Yang Ming Shengzi took a sip, and everyone's mind was slightly calmed.

  "What's going on?" Hua Manhong glared at him with her phoenix eyes, others might be intimidated by the Young Master of Yangming, but she wasn't. She said: "Our sister has taken a liking to Liang Shanbo."

  "What?" The corner of Yang Ming's mouth curved upwards, as if he had just heard the most amusing joke.

  Hua Man Cui hastily added: "Our family's sister has already tied a lifelong knot with Governor Liang."

  "What?! The Saint Son Yangming couldn't help but stop smiling."

  If Hua Yueying and Liang Shanbo had tied the three-life silk, it wouldn't be a joke. But how could that be? Yangming Shengzi knew the importance of the three-life silk to the women of Huajiantang, yet he hadn't even tied it with Hua Wuyan despite their deep affection for each other.

  "My goodness, the number one beauty of Huajian Hall has taken a liking to Liangshan Bo?" The inner disciples were usually calm and composed in front of the outer disciples, but upon hearing this news, they couldn't remain calm. To joke about it, it wasn't just any ordinary woman from Huajian Hall, but the number one beauty, Hua Yueying. Not only was she renowned as the number one beauty of Huajian Hall, but also among the eighteen True Immortal Halls, Hua Yueying was also known as the number one beauty.

  Jin Lao felt a suffocating sensation in his chest, almost as if he was going to suffocate on the spot.

  How could this happen?!

  "Hmph." Yangming Shengzi let out two cold laughs, he was the first to react, "I've heard that this Liangshan Bo's daughter is actually our Zhengqing Sect's Holy Maiden, Huayue Ying is indeed daring to snatch food from a tiger's mouth."

  "What's the big deal? A woman from a good family, once she falls in love, doesn't think twice about it. Unlike some despicable people who dare to do but not to admit, truly shameless!" Flower Manhong said loudly.

  Yang Ming Shengzi had never been so humiliated in public before. His face turned cold and he was about to get angry.

  "Xiao Hong, Xiao Cui!" Liangshan scolded, "How can you speak to our Holy Son like that? It's too impolite."

  Hua Manhong and Hua Mantui immediately said to Liang Shandao: "Sister can't take it anymore."

  Liangshan didn't say this sentence and it would have been better, but Yangming Shengzi's face immediately became even more unbearable to look at, and he turned dark right then.

  "Alright, Liang Shidi, it's getting late, we should set off." Xiong Hai said immediately, looking robust like a bear but having a clever mind.

  "Xiao Hong Xiao Cui, I have arrived safely at my destination, you two can head back first."

  "Yangming Shengzi, Liangshan Bo is our family's maternal uncle, so take good care of him on the way."

  "Please rest assured, Holy Maiden Huayueying." Yangming Holy Son's nose was almost out of breath, fortunately his internal energy cultivation was excellent, and he didn't have an attack on the spot.

  Liáng Shān bid a reluctant farewell to the two beauties, Huā Mǎn Hóng and Huā Mǎn Cuì, as they rode off on horseback.

  Looking at the backs of the two girls, Liangshan muttered to himself: "Hua Yueying said that when she married me, these two girls would be concubines. Tsk, tsk, what does she take me for? I'm not someone who is motivated by lust."

  "Alright!" Yang Ming Shengzi shouted, "Return to formation, we're departing!"

  The rest of the people's faces twitched, this is a cheap and clever goods. However, others really have the ability to show off, the first beauty of Huajiantang actually favored him, this luck is too against the sky.

  Yangming Shengzi thought for a moment, and Liangshan's "romantic encounter" was probably due to his own efforts. Thinking of this, his face turned even darker. Tuoba Qiurong let out a long sigh and tried her best to hold back her laughter. This slap was loud enough to be heard clearly, but she also saw that Liangshan was not as carefree as he seemed on the surface. Hua Yueying was someone who would eat people without spitting out their bones, and yet he had devoted his heart to her? That's just ridiculous.

  A lone traveler rides his horse northward, with no words spoken along the way.

  At noon, while resting in a maple forest, Tuoba Qiurong asked Liang Shan to get to the bottom of things. When she heard that San Shi Qing Si only loved one person and wouldn't move forward forever if they didn't break through their boundaries, Tuoba Qiurong thought to herself, indeed there's no such easy thing.

  This is a gamble between Huayueying and Liangshan. Tuoba Qiurong worries about Liangshan, the three-life emotional thread is so severe, thinking that even if Huayueying unties it, it's not easy, otherwise why look for Liangshan.

  Liáng Shān was not worried at all, saying "where there's a cart, there's a road".

  "Then can't you think of your wife?" asked Tuoba Qiurong.

  Liáng Shān shook his head and said, "My family's Chen Si Niang can't think about it, thinking about it makes her headache split, this thief woman's emotional thread is really fierce, but my family's Zhù Qīng Yún is a bit better."

  "What's to be done?"

  Li Shang smiled and said, "Well, I won't think about it then. A big man like me thinking about his wife all day is really shameful. If anyone should be thinking about someone, it's them thinking about me." Li Shang spoke casually, but as soon as he started thinking about his wife on the way back from Hua Shan, he fell off his horse and rolled around on the ground in pain. With Li Shang's current endurance, what kind of pain could make him hurt so much? It was clear that it really hurt. This was a big problem - all along, his wife had been Li Shang's goal in life, but now he couldn't think about her, and he felt lost.

  "Thinking is not thinking, not thinking is thinking." Liangshan saw Tuoba Qiurong worried about himself and casually said.

  "What are you talking about?" Taobao Qiurong's voice was unexpectedly filled with a hint of charm.

  Liáng Shān didn't notice, but muttered to himself, "Thinking is not thinking, not thinking is thinking", repeating it a few times. Suddenly, Liáng Shān gave Tuòbá Qiūruì a big hug and then did a backflip, saying: "Got it."

  Tuoba Qiurong's face turned red, but she said, "What is it?"

  Li Shang waved his hand and said, "It's a very mysterious feeling, can't be described in words. Maybe I have a way to deal with it."

  The three-life emotional thread is very fierce, now in Liangshan's mind are all the Flower Moon Shadows, occasionally a glimpse of Zhu Qingyun appears, and the three-life emotional thread viciously pounces on it, cutting Zhu Qingyun's image into shreds with a "crack" from front to back.

  However, if the longing for one's wife is in a state of "thinking yet not thinking", then the threads of love across three lifetimes cannot find an object to rend asunder.

  After a conversation with Tuoba Qiurong, Liangshan saw some light and believed that the deeper the understanding, the more ways to deal with it. Although it is still quite far from completely solving the three-life emotional entanglement, Liangshan believes that there will always be a way.

  A group of people left Wuguan and entered the Weinan Plain, crossing the Yellow River. Yang Ming Shengzi and others did not fly again, but instead rode horses with Liangshan and others.

  The master can go up to heaven and down to earth, seemingly free, but actually subject to many restrictions.

  Above the top of the sky is just a level for eagles, and further up the air is thin, with countless whirlwinds. Even Golden Elixir saints in their infancy cannot fly there, and flight paths are only narrow local routes. Over cities and densely populated areas, it's impossible to fly, as they're filled with worldly rules, like flying into a foggy period, consuming huge amounts of energy.

  The land of mountains and rivers that Tian Di loves cannot fly, these places have excellent feng shui, often wrapping up the momentum of heaven and earth to form a natural feng shui array. When cultivators fly from these places, it's as if the gravitational force is ten or a hundred times stronger. In short, when cultivators fly, they have fixed flight routes just like the flights in the 21st century.

  In the blink of an eye, three days passed, and as dusk approached, everyone crossed the Wuding River, with Tongwan City right in front of them.

  Liáng Shān was immediately stunned by the grandeur of Tongwan City; all the tall buildings he had seen before were no match for this gigantic city.
