Chapter 689: Coercion and inducement!
"The Cao family of the Jindan family?"
After leaving the side hall, Wei Hong thought to himself secretly.
Regarding offending Cao Hang and the other two, he actually felt very helpless and depressed.
Who would have thought that just by rejecting the other party, Cao Hang and the two would be so petty and directly resent him.
This was mainly because he had no understanding of Cao Hang and the two of them, so he had such a result.
But no matter what, Wei Hong would never agree to the Cao family's participation in this fight.
The Tang family in Guangning is another Jindan family. Its power is almost the same as that of the Cao family. Moreover, it can compete with the Cao family for the ownership of a mine. Its power can be imagined. Therefore, he is absolutely unwilling to do so because of something. He offended a Jindan family during a fight.
He enjoys the current life of ease and steady improvement in cultivation, and of course he does not want to get involved in the battles and disputes between the two golden elixir families.
"However, it seems that I still offended people, alas!"
Wei Hong couldn't help but sigh secretly when he thought of the ugly and gloomy expressions on Cao Hang's and Cao Hang's faces just now.
Originally, he had declined politely from the beginning, but who knew that the other party was so ignorant that he not only pressed forward step by step, but even assumed a threatening posture in the end.
As a result, Wei Hong was naturally even more unable to compromise.
Moreover, he did not immediately regard the entire Cao family as a huge threat in his heart. After all, in his opinion, rejecting the other party was just a trivial matter. The other party could definitely find another person to fight for them, and it was only Cao Hang who was so small-minded. , this matter is not a big deal, the Cao family should not take it seriously.
But the look in Cao Hang's eyes just now still made Wei Hong feel a little wary: "I just refused to fight. He won't be so stingy and wants to take revenge on me, right?"
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but feel a little wary in his heart.
After leaving Cangling Hall, he did not return to Lingzhi Garden immediately. Instead, he went to Yuande Hall to buy a batch of alchemy materials to refine the elixirs he needed.
Now that he has broken through to the third level of foundation building, only the Zhengyang Pill among the pills he is familiar with can have an effect on him. Therefore, Wei Hong decided to refine the Zhengyang Pill in large quantities and then continue to practice hard in seclusion.
The cost of refining the elixir yourself is naturally much lower than purchasing the finished elixir directly from Yuande Hall, which is one of the reasons why he exposed his identity as an alchemist.
However, Wei Hong didn't know that when he was buying alchemy materials, Cao Zhen and Cao Jiang, another member of the Cao clan, not only quietly followed his whereabouts, but also made preparations to ambush him.
Completely unaware, after purchasing a batch of alchemy materials, he went to Baoqixuan to buy a batch of talisman painting materials. Then he slowly walked out of the gate of Cangshan Fairy City, and then left with his sword.
On the other side, Cao Zhen and Cao Jiang had hidden outside the city gate early. When they saw Wei Hong rising with his sword, Cao Zhen immediately said: "Fourth brother, this is this person. Shall we follow him immediately?"
Cao Jiang, who is next to Cao Zhen, is a middle-aged man with an arrogant expression and somewhat handsome appearance. He is wearing a black robe, his hair is simply tied up, and his eyes are slightly sharp.
Seeing Wei Hong's sword light soaring into the sky, he said unhurriedly: "You follow at a distance, and when you are almost at the destination, you can catch up quickly. I will immediately go to the ambush point. I am flying with my sword." It is faster than him and can intercept it. When the time comes, we can attack him from both sides and then use the power of the formation to kill him on the spot."
"Okay, little brother will go right away!"
Seeing Cao Jiang's arrangement, Cao Zhen not only had no objection, but agreed with excitement, then immediately stood up with his sword and followed Wei Hong quietly.
As for Cao Jiang, he also flew up, but instead of following Cao Zhen, he took a slight detour and then headed for his destination at full speed.
"Hmph, boy, if you dare to provoke our Cao family, you really don't want to live or die!" Cao Jiang sneered in his heart as he flew.
He has a cultivation level of the fifth level of foundation building. He is naturally faster than Wei Hong when flying at full strength. This is why he is confident in intercepting Wei Hong. He believes that a monk of the second level of foundation building is in his hands. There is no way to turn the world upside down.
Moreover, they had already deployed a low-grade second-level [Five Elements Tracing Formation] on the only way for Wei Hong to go to Lingzhi Garden. As long as Wei Hong fell into the formation, there would be no way for Wei Hong to be spared. , the two of them can kill it calmly.
With this idea in mind, Cao Jiang quickly rushed towards the ambush point.
Wei Hong was flying in mid-air with his sword at this time, but his expression was a bit ugly.
Just because he noticed something unusual not long after leaving Cangshan Fairy City.
Just because an unspeakable and inexplicable crisis suddenly arose in his heart, and it lingered in his mind, as if something might happen, which made him immediately alert.
"Could it be that Cao Hang and the two really want to deal with me?"
Wei Hong frowned and thought to himself: "Except for Cao Hang, I have never offended anyone else. Could it be that they want to ambush me halfway?"
Cao Hang never expected that Wei Hong would directly guess the truth.
At this time, he was not sure who wanted to deal with him, but the sudden warning inspiration was absolutely unmistakable, and he had always trusted his intuition, so he immediately became alert.
"If you want to ambush me halfway, you will definitely set up a formation or a trap, and it will definitely not be less than two people. From this point of view, it must be the Cao family!"
After thinking quickly in his mind, Wei Hong quickly made up his mind.
He believed that the two people who wanted to deal with him this time were most likely Cao Hang, and the other party must have set up an ambush.
Originally, according to his principle of dealing with one thing less than one thing more, although the ambush has not happened yet, it may not be true, but with his cautious temperament, he can completely take a detour or change his appearance. This crisis can be avoided directly.
However, Wei Hong thought again: "The Cao family has learned my true identity and also knows that I am stationed at the No. 7 Spiritual Plant Garden. If they are determined to cause trouble for me, then I will never be able to hide even if I want to." Instead of being beaten passively, it is better to scare them directly, or deal with Cao Hang directly!"
Thinking of this, a hint of cold murderous intent flashed in his eyes.
He believed that as long as it was handled simply and neatly, there would never be any clues left.
Naturally, Wei Hong didn't take Cao Hang seriously. He was worried about the Cao family behind them.
But if the Cao family keeps thinking about him, this is not what he wants to see.
It is said that if you are not afraid of thieves, you are afraid of thieves. There is no reason to always guard against thieves!
If this matter is not resolved, the Cao family may bring him greater trouble.
With this thought in his mind, Wei Hong was heartbroken and had no intention of changing direction. Instead, he flew straight towards the Lingzhi Garden, and said cruelly in his heart:
"I want to see what Cao Hang and the two want. If you really want to take revenge on me, then don't blame me for being ruthless!"
