Anyway, there are only a few or even a dozen of them in total!

As for these small forces who wanted to take refuge, Zhou Mingde decided to refuse to accept this vassal relationship after discussing with Zhou Chun, and just gave them a gift to thank them for their "good intentions".

After all, the Zhou family has already set the tone for low-key development in the future, and there is no need to touch the bottom line of Qinglian Guan on this kind of thing.

The current plan of the Zhou family is that the top management will support Zhou Daoyi in his attempt to form an elixir, while the middle and lower levels will discover and cultivate talents, consolidate the foundation of the family, and at the same time increase the development of the wilderness.

Anyway, time is now on the side of the Zhou family. The lifespans of several golden elixir-level monks in their family are still sufficient, so they can endure it slowly and wait for the situation to change.

…

In Frozen Yi Country, on the top of a steep snow peak.

Qingweizi, who transformed into a white-haired old man, came here based on the intelligence information she collected, and then carefully used her spiritual consciousness to search.

But no matter how hard he searched, his spiritual consciousness could not find any abnormalities on this snowy peak that was not particularly rich in aura.

After some attempts, he chose to give up, and then took out a special talisman to activate it.

Watching the magic talisman turn into a white eyeball pattern and float in the air after being activated, Qingweizi could only wait patiently.

After waiting for about a quarter of an hour, his consciousness suddenly moved and he looked towards the snow somewhere a hundred feet away.

I saw a flash of white light in that place, and a figure whose whole body was covered by a white robe appeared there out of thin air.

And Qingweizi's consciousness was bounced away when he got close to the person. With his cultivation in the middle stage of the Golden Core, he couldn't even see clearly what kind of cultivation the other party had. He only knew that he must be a monk in the Golden Core stage.

wrong.

"Could it be that what fellow Taoist performed just now was the ice escape technique?"

Qingweizi stared at the white-robed monk and asked tentatively.

The ice escape technique he talks about is actually a partial escape technique, derived from the water escape technique, and can only be used in places where there is ice and snow.

But the advantage of this kind of escape technique is that after it is successfully practiced, it can be used at will in the land of ice and snow.

Like the top of the snow peak where Qingweizi is now, the ice and snow underfoot are dozens of feet thick. Ordinary earth escape techniques cannot be used at all, and the same is true for water escape techniques.

But the ice escape technique here can be used like these two escape techniques to easily fly through the ice and snow.

If there was a fight in this environment, the monks who mastered the ice escape technique would be able to advance and retreat freely, occupying a very large geographical advantage.

And 70% to 80% of the entire Frozen Yi Country is covered in ice and snow!

But at this time, facing Qingweizi's inquiry, the white-robed monk had no intention of responding to him. He just asked in an indifferent tone: "Your Excellency came with a token. I think you know the rules of this sect. I don't know."

Who do you want me to take action against?"

After hearing his words, Qingweizi knew that it was impossible for her to get close.

Therefore, he quickly became solemn and said solemnly: "Of course I know the rules. The person I want your family to deal with this time is an early stage Golden Core monk who is tens of thousands of miles away from the Frozen End Country. He is related to

The information has been recorded here!”

After saying that, he waved his hand and a jade slip flew towards the white-robed monk.

After the white-robed monk took the jade slip, he did not immediately check the intelligence information inside. He just said coldly: "This sect needs time to investigate the true situation of the target and evaluate the reward of this attack. Wait until the evaluation results come out.

I will contact you later!"

After saying that, he made a seal with his hands and disappeared directly into the ground in front of Qingweizi and disappeared without a trace.

Seeing this scene, Qingweizi couldn't help but narrow her eyes and quickly turned around and left the place.

He still needs to continue waiting in Frozen End Country, waiting for Ice Prison Sect to contact him again to discuss specific remuneration.

This is the rule of the Ice Prison Sect. When the assassination target is a Golden Core monk, the task will not be accepted immediately. Instead, the situation must be investigated clearly, the target's danger level is determined, and then a quote will be made based on all aspects of the situation.

If they feel that the target is too difficult, they may even refuse to accept the assassination mission.

Without this caution, the killer sect like them would have been wiped out long ago because they kicked some iron plates!

After all, in the world of immortality, if you hide your sect's gate in a dark place where no one knows, no one will be able to find you.

For some Nascent Soul stage monks, they only need to collect a little bit of your breath to find your hiding place thousands of miles away.

There is even a magical divination technique in the world of immortality, which can directly predict the hiding place of the target person!

…

Zhou Chun, who only wanted to stay inside his family's mountain gate, would of course not know that Qingweizi had gone to the Frozen Yi Kingdom to hire a killer to assassinate him.

The reason why he stayed in the family mountain gate to practice instead of going to the Great Zhou Kingdom was mainly because he was worried that Qinglian Temple would not be willing to lose the bet, and then secretly made some small moves to deal with the Zhou family.

In addition, he currently does not have much demand for the Great Zhou Kingdom.

Apart from asking Luo Qingni for help in refining the [Dragon Transformation Pill], there was no reason why he had to go to the Great Zhou Kingdom.

Lin Hongyu can completely help collect the materials for refining the [Ancient Chen Pill], or let the family monks do it.

For this reason, he even asked some family foundation-building monks and Zifu monks to travel to various countries to help him collect relevant materials.

And if Luo Qingni leaves the customs and reads the summons he left, he will also find someone to come and notify him, without him having to make a special trip to wait.

"It's strange. It's been more than a year since this gambling fight ended, and Qinglian Temple really hasn't done anything. Could it be that it was taken by Master Bai Yue to warn him not to make any small moves? It doesn't feel like that of Taoist Yiyang.

He Qingweizi’s style!”

On this day, Zhou Chun went to the Zhongping Hall to check on the family's financial situation. After learning that everything was stabilizing and changing for the better, he couldn't help but murmur when he came back.

He had already planned for Qinglian Guan to use commercial means to snipe the Zhou family from everywhere. With the scale of Qinglian Guan, this matter could still bring a lot of trouble to the Zhou family.

Moreover, this kind of sniping is strictly a business competition. The Moon Wheel Sect can't even control how Qinglian Temple does business!

But what he didn't expect was that Qinglian Temple did nothing. Even the Zhou family shop in Hongyafang City, Lanzhou was still operating normally without any deliberate targeting.

This unexpected situation made Zhou Chun feel uneasy, like the calm before the storm.

After thinking for a while, he issued an order to ask the family elders to minimize going out in recent years, or to keep a low profile and conceal their true identities when going out to avoid any accidents.

For today's Zhou family, as long as high-level monks above the Zifu stage do not die unexpectedly, even if a few Foundation-building stage monks disappear or die, the losses are still within an acceptable range.

Several months later, Zhou Mingde suddenly came to Zhou Chun's cave in person to see him.

"Zhengchun, do you still remember the treasure map you obtained from the family secret vault after the Jiang family was overthrown?"

Inside the cave, as soon as Zhou Mingde saw Zhou Chun, he suddenly asked about an old incident from many years ago.

Hearing his words, Zhou Chun reacted immediately, looked at him with surprise and said, "Of course I remember, junior. Now that you suddenly mentioned this matter, could it be that you discovered another treasure map corresponding to it?"

He clearly remembered that the animal skin picture scroll was only half of it, it was a fragmented picture, but the texture of the animal skin was that of a third-level monster beast.

The treasure map made from the skin of this monster beast is definitely not an ordinary treasure, so it was collected by the Jiang family and entered into the secret vault.

And Zhou Chun remembered that he had put the rubbings of this treasure map in the family library many years ago. Any monk of the Zhou family who could enter the library could look at the copy for free, and indicated that he had great respect for the person who presented the other half of the treasure map.

reward.

Zhou Mingde, who is now in charge of family affairs, suddenly mentioned this matter, and Zhou Chun realized that the measures taken back then might have achieved results.

Sure enough, after listening to his words, Zhou Mingde immediately smiled and said: "That's right, Zhou Sihan, the junior who traveled in and out of the Japanese clan, suddenly returned to the family and handed over the other half of the treasure map. After Xinyi learned about this, he immediately contacted me

After a comparison, it was determined that the two treasure maps are exactly the same in terms of material, and there is no possibility of counterfeiting!"

Zhou Chun heard the words and immediately said thoughtfully: "Junior Zhou Sihan, if I remember correctly, he should be in the middle stage of foundation building now. After he got the other half of the treasure map, didn't he try to find the treasure?

place?"

"Hahaha, of course he tried it, but unfortunately that place is located in Chengguo, and it is now protected by a large formation and monster beasts. With his strength, it is impossible to obtain this opportunity!"
