Chapter 108 Making things difficult
Although Wei Zhiyuan is not from the Qin family, it is not unusual for him to appear in the Jiuguang Temple as a great worshiper of the Shantang.
But this time was a bit too coincidental.
When Qin Ran saw Wei Zhiyuan, he immediately went forward, saluted respectfully, and said, "Hello Uncle Wei."
After saying that, he turned around to pay his respects to Qin Ze: "Father."
"Yes." Qin Ze nodded, his eyes were full of spoiling when he looked at Qin Ran. He looked at Xia Sheng for a moment and asked Qin Ran, "Is this...?"
Without waiting for Qin Ran to answer, Wei Zhiyuan had already walked forward with a playful smile on his face and said, "Isn't this Mr. Xia... Why did you come to visit the Jiuguang Temple in my Shantang today?"
Xia Sheng smiled indifferently and nodded slightly, "It turned out to be Gonggong Wei, it's such a coincidence. I also said why didn't I see you in the Good Hall today? It turned out that I was hiding here."
Seeing that the atmosphere between the two was a little wrong, Qin Ran hurried over and smoothed out: "Uncle Wei, I brought Brother Xia here. He said he wanted to choose a general-level spirit beast in our Jiuguang Temple. I thought, and just brought him over to pick it up."
"Oh?" Wei Zhiyuan's smile became even colder and he spoke, "Young Master Xia may not know that this Jiuguang Temple is a private place for my good hall. The spirit beasts raised in it are all for people in the clan. Although Young Master Xia is a distinguished guest of my Qin family, isn't this requirement a little beyond the boundaries?"
Xia Sheng looked at Wei Zhiyuan seriously, and did not answer his question, but asked back: "Dare you ask Wei Gongfeng, do you want to be the shopkeeper of this Shantang?"
Hearing this, everyone's faces changed. Wei Zhiyuan shouted coldly: "Young Master Xia! You can eat food, but you can't say anything randomly. If you don't explain such slanderous words clearly, don't blame me for turning against others!"
Xia Sheng smiled indifferently: "I'm just a little curious. The one who brought me to Jiuguang Temple today is the eldest son of the Qin family and one of the candidates for the future Shantang. The second master of the Qin family is the second master of the Qin family. Neither of them think I am beyond the boundaries yet. Where do you get the qualification to say such nonsense?"
"Or, you rely on your strength to be stronger than these two, and you are proud of your contributions and feel that you are above the Qin family? Or, is this so-called transgression that you have decided by yourself?"
Wei Zhiyuan's words were a little bit blue, but he still maintained his demeanor in front of Qin Ze and Qin Ran, and said coldly: "Why, Mr. Xia can only provoke discord now, and is he slandering?"
Xia Sheng shook his head, took a step forward, and whispered: "Those who hold the good copybook will be regarded by the Qin family as the most honorable guest in the world. Even if you are a polite worshiper in the Qi family, you are just a dog raised by the Qin family. It is simple for a guest to ask the owner to kill a dog to eat, but if the dog dares to offend the guest, then the consequences will probably be..."
What Xia Sheng didn't expect was that at this time, Wei Zhiyuan was so angry that he laughed, and interrupted him: "It seems that I'm too much. Since the eldest young master gave Mr. Xia a general-level spirit beast, just go and choose it. My Shantang is not so stingy."
Wei Zhiyuan's sudden concessions not only did not make Xia Sheng happy, but instead became a little alert in his heart.
Dogs that can bite people never bark.
What's more, it was a dog in the Martial Master Realm.
But the most urgent task is not to talk to Wei Zhiyuan here, but to take advantage of this opportunity to enter the Jiuguang Temple first!
Thinking of this, Xia Sheng looked at Wei Zhiyuan deeply, and no longer said anything. Instead, he walked forward, came to Qin Ze, held his hand and said, "This person should be Master Qin Er?"
Qin Ze naturally saw the conflict between Xia Sheng and Wei Zhiyuan, but at this time, he was not very good at expressing his position, so he could only nod and instruct Qin Ran: "Since Mr. Xia wants a spirit beast, you should take him into the temple."
Who would have thought that at this time, Wei Zhiyuan did not leave, but suddenly said: "Young Master Xia has a unique vision. I believe there is a special way to choose spirit beasts. Why don't I go with you and see you? It's better to pay attention to Mr. Xia's methods."
This time, Xia Sheng had no reason to refuse. Qin Ran was in a dilemma, and finally nodded: "Since that's the case, it's better for Uncle Wei to join us. It just so happened that I encountered some bottlenecks in swordsmanship recently and was thinking about asking Uncle Wei for advice."
Having said that, in order not to further escalate the conflict between Wei Chongfeng and Xia Sheng, Qin Ze could only follow everyone into the Jiuguang Temple and instruct his subordinates to be more vigilant.
This is not the first time Xia Sheng has entered the Jiuguang Temple. After all, he founded the Shantang from the beginning, but in order to cover up this, he still politely showed great interest in Qin Ran's introduction.
But it is undeniable that the return to Jiuguang Temple after five hundred years still made Xia Sheng feel sigh-in.
Although the name Jiuguang Temple contains the word "Sanctuary", it is actually not a ancestral hall. Instead, it looks more like a tower-shaped building with nine floors, and the levels of the spirit beasts raised on each floor are different.
The number of spirit beasts in the first floor is the largest, but they are all just spirits. Although from the outside, the Jiuguang Temple does not cover a large area, in fact, it uses some kind of space formation to make its real capacity. If it is spread out, it is equivalent to the size of five Luoyang cities!
In other words, there are probably more than 100,000 spirit beasts contained in this first floor alone!
This is probably the Shantang. It is placed elsewhere, even the three major academies may not have such a profound foundation.
Everyone did not stay in the first floor for too long, so they followed the steps up the steps. In the second floor of the Jiuguang Temple, the corresponding one was of course Shi Ling. Looking around, there was no end at all. However, with Xia Sheng's extremely sharp gaze, he still saw the green flame bird contained in Qin Yan's body in a quick glance.
In comparison, the Qingyan Bird is already a treasured master spirit, so there are only five in the entire Jiuguang Temple. And judging from its low reproduction ability, it is probably difficult to add one in a dozen or twenty years.
The higher the Jiuguang Temple, the higher the level of the spirit beast, but I don’t know whether there is really a legendary holy-level spiritual object on the top level?
