Chapter 310 Return to Kang State, Yuanjie’s favor (please subscribe)
He is also the only Jindan Zhenjun in the Tao family.
But Wei Tu didn't expect that Tao Chongzhou, who had not been heard from for decades, would die in the Black Blood Swamp.
You must know that the True Monarch of the Golden Core is not a foundation-building monk, so he has many options to choose from.
Surrendering to the demonic cultivators, or going to other remote areas to avoid fighting, are both feasible strategies.
There is no need, you must risk your life by crossing the Black Blood Swamp.
“The Black Blood Swamp, except for the Golden Elixir Overhaul, other Golden Elixir cultivators have difficulty crossing. This is exactly what Tao Chongzhou told me. It makes no sense...he would enter the Black Blood Swamp alone..."
Wei Tu thought secretly.
“Take me over and see the bones.” Wei Tu wanted to make the final confirmation.
Although his guess was pretty close, he couldn't rashly assume that this person was Tao Chongzhou without seeing the bones with his own eyes.
Besides, he has an old relationship with the Tao family.
It is also the obligation to help the Hanshan Tao family collect the bones of their Jindan ancestor Tao Chongzhou.
After a while.
Bai Zhi led Wei Tu to the place where she found Jin Dan's body.
“It is indeed Tao Chongzhou’s body.”
Wei Tu came closer, sensed the aura on Jin Dan’s corpse, and judged.
"It has been more than two years since he died. There are still some injuries on his body. In addition to the injuries from the monster beasts in the black blood swamp and the poisonous fog, there are also some injuries from magic weapons."
“It seems that Tao Chongzhou was attacked by fellow monks and accidentally died in the Black Blood Swamp.”
Weitu speculated on the cause of death.
However, Wei Tu did not open Tao Chongzhou's storage bag to search for any information about the perpetrator hidden in the storage bag.
He cut wood into a coffin, put Tao Chongzhou's bones in it, and then continued on his way.
If it is a stranger.
Wei Tu will also make this small fortune.
But the Tao family has an old relationship with him.
In addition to abiding by the contract and helping the Wei family in the matter of smuggling, after he arrived in Kang State, Tao Fangde and other Tao family monks also worked for him several times.
There is no need to be so jealous of money that you even touch your friends’ belongings.
Outside.
Wei Tu didn’t think that there could be something spiritual in Tao Chongzhou’s storage bag that would tempt him.
In the final analysis, the Tao family is just an ordinary Jindan family, and its ancestor, Tao Chongzhou, is not much different from Jindan casual cultivators.
…
One month later.
Weitu finally arrived in Kang State.
He did not take any rest and immediately went to the Ying Ding tribe to inquire about the safety of the Fenshan tribe and the Wei family.
He was lucky. Perhaps because he had only left Kang for a short time, his reputation still spread among the Ying Ding tribe, so neither the Fenshan tribe nor the Wei family encountered major setbacks.
Everything is calm.
“If you want to call it a crisis, there is one.”
“After the high priest left, Master Yuanxian once took a spiritual contract and wanted the Fenshan tribe to compensate him for his losses, but he was stopped by Yuan Jie who came after hearing the news..."
“Yuanjie, on behalf of the high priest, compensated Master Yuanxian with 30,000 spiritual stones.”
In Yanfen Mountain, Yan Yu reported to Wei Tu what happened after Wei Tu left.
“Yuan Xian?”
Hearing this, Wei Tu raised his eyebrows slightly.
More than fifty years ago, when he came to Fenshan tribe and served as the high priest, he made a bet with Yuan Xian: whether he could revive a dying elixir.
That elixir is suspected to be a dead branch of the strange tree "Thunder Spirit Tree".
Weitu had no intention of honoring this bet. He originally planned to wait until the time came to compensate Yuan Xian for 30,000 spiritual stones, and then cut off the dead branches of the Thunder Spirit Tree.
Unexpectedly, after Yuan Xian knew that he was in trouble, he immediately ran to the Fenshan Department and demanded compensation.
“Although it is hateful to take advantage of someone’s situation, Yuan Xian and I have no friendship at all, so what he did is reasonable and reasonable.”
Wei Tu was not annoyed.
It's just a pity for Wei Tu that he has to owe Yuan Jie a favor for this. "However, it is a good thing that favors reciprocate. Last time, Yuan Jie killed the second prince and owed me a favor."
Wei Tu shook his head.
Yuanjie is a young talent from the Ying Ding tribe and is expected to become the Righteous King.
His friendship with him has a lot of benefits for his practice in the Ying Ding Department.
Subsequently.
Wei Tu asked about the whereabouts of Wei Yan's sister and brother.
Just now he came to the Fenshan Department, but did not find the Wei Yan siblings near Yanfen Mountain.
If he hadn't known that the Fenshan tribe had not encountered any external attacks, he might have thought that the Wei Yan siblings had been kidnapped by the monks.
"It's Fairy Kou. Fairy Kou from Jingshui Pavilion immediately rushed to my clan and picked up Fairy Yan and her brother after knowing that the high priest was in danger."
Yan Yu quickly replied.
“Hongying?”
Hearing this, Wei Tu felt warm in his heart.
There is a long distance between Ningyue Palace and Yingding Department, so Kou Hongying was able to rush over as soon as possible after learning the news and pick up Wei Yan and his sister to save him from worries.
His thoughts are priceless.
…
Knowing that everyone in the Fenshan tribe and the Wei family was safe, Wei Tu remembered Tao Chongzhou's bones in the storage bag, so he set out for the Zama tribe where the Tao family in Hanshan now lived.
"What?"
“Is there any news about the ancestor?”
After hearing the news, the Tao family cultivators gathered together with excitement on their faces.
Over the years, although the Tao family has been under the care of Wei Tu and has not encountered any major crises, the care taken by outsiders is different from the care given by one's own ancestors.
The ancestor Tao Chongzhou is here.
Tao Jiajin can continue to establish the Jindan family in Kangguo, and when they retreat, they can be like the Wei family, protected by a high priest, and completely integrated into the Yingding tribe.
Just, after the excitement.
The Tao family cultivators calmed down again.
Because this time, they still did not see the figure of their ancestor Tao Chongzhou.
This means that Tao Chongzhou may still be in Zheng State, or...
"No, it's impossible." The Tao family cultivators held back their thoughts and did not think about the worst outcome.
“Senior Wei, what’s going on with my ancestor? Please speak up.”
Tao Fangde bowed his hands.
His intuition was that the news would not be good. Otherwise, Wei Tu would not have "sold out" and asked him to gather the Tao family's direct relatives.
“Fellow Tao Dao has passed away.”
Wei Tu sighed softly.
As soon as he flicked his sleeves and robes, a crudely made coffin appeared on the ground.
“This time, after Wei escaped from the abduction of the two female fox cultivators, he returned to the Kingdom of Kang. In the Black Blood Swamp, he accidentally came across the corpse of Taoist Taoist Fellow…”
Weitu narrates slowly.
As he spoke, he took out Tao Chongzhou's storage bag from his sleeve and placed it on the desk.
“The ancestor is dead?”
“The ancestor has fallen?”
Even though they had expected it, the Tao family cultivators couldn't help but feel sad after hearing the news, with sad expressions on their faces.
Different from ordinary members of the Tao family in Hanshan, these people could sneak to Kang State because they were either family elites or direct descendants of the family.
Hence, the relationship between them and Tao Chongzhou is not just a simple ancestor and clansman, but also a blood relationship between them.
“Ya’er, please open this storage bag on behalf of our Tao family.”
Tao Fangde spoke.
He looked at a girl in a white dress standing among the Tao family cultivators.
