Chapter 118 Yangzhou Bartering Conference
Among the three counties, Boyang County is located in the hinterland, with Yu County in the west as a barrier, and Jiaoyang and Yunyang Counties in the north as a shield, it is considered the safest place among the three counties.

The Jiaoyang County that Chen Nianzhi was going to this time was very similar to Yu County. They were the closest to Eshiling, and they were the first barrier in Yangzhou.

In Jiaoyang County, apart from six or seven Foundation Establishment Immortal Clans, there is also a third-rank top-rank spirit vein, which is Yangzhou's first barrier against Eshiling.

This third-tier high-grade spirit vein was cultivated by the previous head of Qingyang Sect against all opinions, spending millions of spirit stones, and arranged a fourth-tier formation, sending a large number of monks to sit in it.

It is precisely because of this barrier that Eshiling has never crossed Yangzhou for 500 years, and has never successfully invaded the hinterland of Chu State, allowing the Qingzhou immortals to cultivate and live for hundreds of years.

Chen Nianzhiyu County straddled the Bianyang Mountains, and crossed Boyang County, and flew 13 miles all the way, before arriving at Jiaoyang County.

"Jiaoyangfang."

Looking at Fangshi in front of him, Chen Nianzhi's eyes moved slightly, remembering the information he knew.

Jiaoyangfang is the largest Xiuxianfang city in Yangzhou. It is located under Jiaoyang Mountain, the third-level top-grade spiritual vein.

Fifty percent of the tax revenue of this square city fell into the hands of Qingyangzong, the Pan family of the Zifu immortal clan in Jiaoyang County accounted for [-]%, and the remaining [-]% ​​was jointly controlled by the Zhuji immortal clan of Jiaoyang County.

Don't underestimate these shares, you must know that Jiaoyangfang's tax revenue is far higher than that of Yuyangfang City, it is equivalent to the combination of Fengyangfang City and Tianxu Mountain.

This square city has been in operation for more than 500 years, and it is enough to rank among the top ten in the entire Chu Kingdom. The annual tax revenue alone exceeds [-] spirit stones, which is more than six times that of Yuyangfang City.

With this in mind, Chen Nianzhi stepped into Jiaoyangfang.

After entering Jiaoyangfang, he was about to find Qingyang Pavilion, which was owned by the Qingyang Sect, specializing in the sale of medicinal instruments.

After finding out the location of Qingyang Pavilion, he went directly to Qingyang Pavilion, and the person who received him was a deacon of Qingyang Sect.

This person's name is Qin Lingyuan, and his cultivation base is in the middle stage of foundation establishment. After seeing him, he said with a smile.

"Your friend, is this the first time you have come to Jiaoyangfang?"

Chen Nianzhi nodded: "I'm from the Chen family of Yu County, this time I'm here for the Yangzhou barter conference."

"Bianzhou is hundreds of thousands of miles away from Jiaoyang Mountain. Fellow Daoist has worked hard." Qin Lingyuan greeted with a smile, and finally got to the business: "I don't know what fellow Daoist is going to buy when you come to my Qingyang Pavilion?"

"To be honest, I came to Jiaoyangfang because of Qingyuan Pill."

Hearing that he wanted to buy Qingyang Pill, Qin Lingyuan showed a wry smile, shook his head again and again and said, "To tell the truth, in the past two months when the Bartering Conference is approaching, no. 16 fellow Taoists have come to ask about Qingyuan Pill."

"My place has long since disappeared. Even if someone wants to trade at the barter conference, fellow daoists should be prepared."

Hearing what he said, Chen Nianzhi shook his head helplessly, and could only leave.

As soon as he left, Qin Lingyuan stepped into the cabinet, and in the wing of the cabinet, there was a mess.

On the opposite side of the endgame, a white-haired old man is holding a chess piece, frowning and thinking.

Seeing Qin Lingyuan approaching, the old man smiled slightly: "Why did Junior Brother come back so soon?"

"I'm here to buy Qingyuan Pill again." Qin Lingyuan held the chess piece and was about to make a move. He added, "The Chen family in Yu County, Bianzhou, built a foundation, and came all the way to Jiaoyang County for a Qingyuan Pill. I think it’s probably a waste of time.”

"It doesn't matter if you don't mention him, you and I haven't seen each other for more than ten years, keep playing chess!"

"Wait a moment!"

Before he finished speaking, the white-haired old man's smile subsided.

The old man lost his interest in playing chess, dropped the chess pieces, and said with a blank expression.

"The Chen family's fairy clan in Yu County?"

"If I remember correctly, my brother-in-law Zuo Yu Nian must have fallen into their hands."

"Brother Yan..."

Qin Lingyuan's complexion changed slightly, he got up and closed the door, and then reminded him in a low voice.

"I have also heard about the strength of the Chen family."

"The person here is Chen Nianzhi, the strength of this person should not be underestimated."

Senior Brother Yan frowned slightly, looked at him deeply, and finally retracted his gaze, and continued to speak slowly.

"If it's Chen Nianzhi who came here, I'm afraid you really shouldn't underestimate it."

"But don't worry, Senior Brother Wei has been guarding Jiaoyang Mountain all these years. He and Zuo Yunian have been friends for a hundred years, and they are as close as brothers."

"Now that I have an opportunity, Senior Brother Wei probably won't let it go."

Following Senior Brother Yan's words, Qin Lingyuan nodded.

Although the senior brother Yan in front of him is in the late stage of foundation establishment, his strength is quite ordinary, but the senior brother Wei has an unusual background.

Senior Brother Wei is named Wei Mingyuan, and he is over 170 years old now. He is the son of Wei Chongyang in the Zifu of Qingyang Zong, and with the support of Zifu's father, he has attacked the Zifu twice.

Although the two breakthroughs failed, wasting two Lihuo crystals, but they also penetrated more than half of the 'Purple Mansion Dao Vein', and their strength far surpassed that of ordinary late-stage foundation-building monks.

Thinking of this, Qin Lingyuan nodded, and said with a smile: "If Brother Wei makes a move, this time, Chen Nianzhi will definitely be killed in Yangzhou."

"..."

Chen Nianzhi didn't know that he had been targeted by the monks of Qingyang Sect.

Zuo Yunian stayed in Qingyang Sect for nearly 200 years, and he was able to make some friends for many years, which was expected by the Chen family.

It's just that Chen Nianzhi didn't expect that these friends were willing to avenge the dead Zuo Yu Nian, and even more unexpected that they happened to meet in Jiaoyangfang City.

After leaving Qingyang Pavilion, Chen Nianzhi was not reconciled, and went to the shop of Pan's family, the fairy family of Zifu, but unfortunately, there were no Qingyuanzhi and Qingyuandan in the shop of Pan's family.

In desperation, Chen Nianzhi could only wait for the Yangzhou Barter Conference to start.

There is no time to practice, and more than ten days passed quickly. On this day, the Yangzhou Bartering Conference finally opened.

Compared with the Bianzhou Bartering Conference, this Yangzhou Bartering Conference is three points more lively. In the Fengyang Fang City last time, the monks who participated in the Bartering Conference were mainly Bianzhou’s Foundation Establishment, so only Only fifty people.

However, Yangzhou and Qingzhou are generally under the control of Qingyangzong, so besides the monks from Yangzhou, there are also many monks from Qingzhou who participated this time.

Coupled with the approaching monster rebellion, this Bianzhou barter conference was very lively, with more than 100 foundation-building monks participating.

Chen Nianzhi entered the venue of the barter conference, and found that there were monks gathered in twos and threes, but he was alone, which seemed to be unique and more eye-catching.

"Chen Daoyou, long time no see."

At this time, a voice suddenly came over:
