After leaving his residence, Duan Lingtian walked to the Shenwei Hou Mansion. Ice@Fire!Chinese ..com
He did not forget what the maid said to him just now.
"What did dad leave with Uncle Nie?"
Out of curiosity, Duan Lingtian came to the Shenwei Hou Mansion.
Although the guards at the gate of Shenwei Hou Mansion were all strangers, after Duan Lingtian revealed his identity and they found a senior guard of Shenwei Hou Mansion to prove Duan Lingtian's identity, they respectfully welcomed Duan Lingtian in.
"Go and do your work. I'll just go find Uncle Nie myself."
Seeing that there was no one in the main hall of Shenwei Hou Mansion, Duan Lingtian said something to the palace guard who welcomed him in, and then went alone to the courtyard where Shenwei Hou 'Nie Yuan' lived.
As soon as he arrived outside the hospital, Duan Lingtian heard a familiar voice coming from inside.
However, now the voice is a little low, "Father, the worst thing is that the mother should not be the sect leader! She is also old, and she can come back to enjoy happiness and hold her grandson."
Duan Lingtian could tell that this was the voice of his Uncle Nie.
"Uncle Nie seems very angry..."
Duan Lingtian raised his brows, thinking about what Nie Yuan said, "Uncle Nie's mother is still the head of a sect? Is the sect she belongs to also a sect of the Qinglin Empire?"
Although Duan Lingtian has never met Nie Yuan's mother, he has heard about it a long time ago.
Back then, when he had just arrived in the Imperial City of the Chixiao Kingdom, his first visit to the Shenwei Hou Mansion was to detoxify the old Marquis and the poison of the 'Black Ming Mink'.
Before detoxifying, he heard the old Marquis mention that the reason why he was poisoned by the Black Marten was because of a spiritual fruit protected by the Black Marten.
And that spiritual fruit is what his wife, the mother of Shenwei Hou Nie Yuan, needs.
If he cannot get the spiritual fruit, his wife will be in big trouble.
At that time, Duan Lingtian knew that the old Marquis's wife, the mother of Shenwei Marquis Nie Yuan, was still alive, but not in the Chixiao Kingdom.
Now that he heard Nie Yuan's words, he guessed that Nie Yuan's mother should be the head of the Qinglin Imperial Sect or a sect of another imperial sect.
As for the empire, or even the Han Dynasty, Duan Lingtian did not dare to think about it, and it was not realistic.
"Grandson? Brother Nie married a wife and had children?"
In addition, Duan Lingtian also captured another layer of information from Nie Yuan's words, and couldn't help but light up.
At this moment, another old voice continued to come.
"I told your mother that she was also willing to let go of her burden... However, those old guys said that if she really wanted to leave the sect, she would have to abandon her entire cultivation! Not only that, but she would also have to go through the process of going up to the sword mountain and down to the sect. Only by going through the test of the sea of fire can we escape from the sect."
Duan Lingtian could tell that this was the voice of the old Marquis.
Snapped!
Almost as soon as the old Marquis finished speaking, a loud noise came from the courtyard. Through the small window on the courtyard wall, Duan Lingtian could see Nie Yuan smashing the stone table with his palm.
"Too much bullying! Those old guys, when my mother first took over the position of sect leader, they kept making trouble for me... It wasn't until my mother took the spirit fruit and her cultivation greatly increased that they restrained themselves a little. This time, my mother Because the sect was injured, not only were they not grateful, but they forced my mother to abdicate, you deserve to die!"
Nie Yuan was very angry.
"Grandpa Nie, Uncle Nie."
Duan Lingtian walked to the courtyard gate and greeted him inside with a smile.
"Xiaotian? When did you come back?"
Hearing Duan Lingtian's voice, the two people in the courtyard were startled for a moment. Nie Yuan was the first to react and welcomed Duan Lingtian in with a surprised look on his face.
At this moment, where does he still look angry?
Of course, Duan Lingtian could see that although Nie Yuan was happy that he was back, there was still uncontrollable anger deep in his eyes.
"I just came back. I heard from the maid that my father left some things with you, Uncle Nie, before he went on a long trip, so I came over."
Duan Lingtian smiled.
"You kid...is it because your father didn't leave anything with me that you didn't want to come over to see Uncle Nie?"
Nie Yuan smiled and cursed, but a kind look appeared on his face.
"of course not."
Duan Lingtian shook his head hurriedly.
"Take it. This is the ring your father asked me to give to you before he left."
Nie Yuan raised his hand and handed a Nai Ring to Duan Lingtian.
Duan Lingtian put away the ring and did not take a closer look for the time being. Instead, he looked at Nie Yuan and the old man beside him, "Uncle Nie, Grandpa Nie... you seem to be in trouble?"
"Xiaotian, it's rare for you to come back, so you don't have to worry about our affairs."
The old Marquis is still as amiable as before.
"Grandpa Nie."
Duan Lingtian's face straightened and he said seriously: "In my eyes, you and Uncle Nie are both my relatives. If something happens to my relatives, I cannot stand by and watch...unless you treat me as an outsider."
"Alas. How can we treat you as an outsider? This matter is really too troublesome and cannot be solved by you."
The old Marquis sighed.
"Yes, Xiaotian, don't worry about this matter."
Nie Yuan also said: "It's rare that you come back, so you should be happy. Don't let other things affect your mood."
"Grandpa Nie, Uncle Nie, just tell me... maybe I can help?"
Duan Lingtian insisted.
Seeing Duan Lingtian's persistence, Shenwei Hou and his son looked at each other, nodded, and began to tell Duan Lingtian the ins and outs of the matter.
Soon, Duan Lingtian had a certain understanding of this matter.
It turns out that Nie Yuan's mother used to be a disciple of a second-rate sect in the Qinglin Empire. She met the old Marquis when she was young, married the old Marquis who was still the 'Shenwei Marquis' at the time, and had a son, Nie Yuan. .
As for Nie Yuan's mother, because of her excellent talent in martial arts, she had always been valued by the old sect leader of that sect, and regarded her as the successor of the next generation sect leader, and even ignored her secretly getting married and having children outside the home.
There is an unwritten rule in that sect.
All sect leaders and sect lord successors must cut off all emotions and desires, and must not marry and have children, because only in this way can they ensure that they can selflessly dedicate their lives to the sect.
"What bullshit rules!"
After hearing this rule, Duan Lingtian couldn't help but curse in his heart. He felt that that bullshit sect was too selfish. An unwritten rule would ruin a person's life.
Life without a partner and children is undoubtedly incomplete.
And soon, as the old sect leader traveled to immortality, Nie Yuan's mother naturally became the sect leader. However, some senior officials of the older generation who couldn't stand this, made things difficult for her at every turn.
In the beginning, the old Marquis was poisoned by the Black Marten for a spiritual fruit. It was precisely because he got that spiritual fruit that he helped his wife improve her cultivation.
After his wife took the spirit fruit, her strength greatly increased and she overpowered a group of older senior officials in the sect, and she became much calmer from then on.
Even if the old Marquis went to live in that sect permanently, those old guys would not dare to say anything.
The last time Duan Lingtian came back, the reason why he didn't see the old marquis was because the old marquis was staying with his wife in that sect.
Half a year ago, that sect had a dispute with another sect. Nie Yuan's mother was injured in the conflict and her strength was greatly reduced.
At this time, the elders from the same sect jumped out to bully her again.
Nie Yuan's mother thought that she had devoted half her life to the sect, but received such a reward. The more she thought about it, the more uncomfortable she felt. Then she thought that her grandson was already a biological child, so she decided to abdicate and stay away from the sect's infighting.
But the high-level officials of the sect did not allow it, and insisted that she stay in the forbidden area and serve as the sect's protector.
Unless the sect is in danger, she is not allowed to leave the forbidden area.
Of course, she can choose to leave the sect.
But there are two conditions:
The first is to waste one’s cultivation.
Secondly, after abolishing one's cultivation, one can officially leave the sect after passing the test of 'climbing the mountain of swords and descending into the sea of fire'.
"What is going up the mountain of swords and going down to the sea of fire?"
Duan Lingtian asked curiously.
Nie Yuan said with a calm face: "That is an extremely harsh test... Generally, only those who have committed serious crimes and have their entire cultivation level destroyed can pass that test."
"Since the existence of that sect, no one whose cultivation has been abolished has been able to pass that test. Those old guys want my mother to die!"
After talking about it, Nie Yuan's eyes turned red.
Although he is the mighty prince of the Chixiao Kingdom, inferior to one person and superior to ten thousand people, he cannot influence the sect where his mother belongs.
"Grandpa Nie, Uncle Nie... let me go with you."
After knowing the ins and outs of the matter, Duan Lingtian said to the two of them.
"Um?"
Duan Lingtian's words stunned the two of them, and then they both shook their heads at the same time, "No! This matter is not something you can solve."
"Yes, Xiaotian. Although your talent is good, in just a few years, you have only just broken through to the 'Peering into the Void Realm'...and that sect is still a 'second-rate sect' no matter how bad it is. , among which there are many beings above the seventh level of the Peeping into the Void Realm."
Nie Yuan also said.
Although, he knew that Duan Lingtian's martial arts talent was incredible.
But in his opinion, in just a few years, it is impossible for Duan Lingtian to have achieved a level above the seventh level of the Void Peeping Realm.
"A second-rate sect?"
Duan Lingtian raised his eyebrows and muttered to himself.
According to his understanding of the sects of the Qinglin Empire, those second-rate sects should be at the same level as the 'Wuya Sect' where Xiong Quan originally belonged.
Among the second-rate sects, there are no warriors above the realm of virtual reality.
Such a sect is really nothing to the current Duan Lingtian.
After all, he was standing at a different height.
"Grandpa Nie, Uncle Nie, do you believe me?"
Duan Lingtian saw that the two of them were unwilling to let him take action, his face darkened, and he asked seriously.
In the end, Nie Yuan and the other two had no choice but to go along with Duan Lingtian.
"This time, rescuing grandma is a gift to my little nephew who I haven't met yet."
Duan Lingtian thought to himself.
This time when he came to the Shenwei Hou Mansion, he didn't even have time to meet Nie Fen and Nie Fen's children, so he left in a hurry with the old Marquis 'Nie Rong' and the current Shenwei Hou 'Nie Yuan'.
After leaving the Shenwei Hou Mansion, Duan Lingtian returned to the house.
After saying hello to Feng Wudao and the others, he met up with Nie Rong and Nie Yuan and left the imperial city of Chixiao Kingdom.
