After turning out the window and cleaning up the remaining traces, Luo Guan jumped up to the eaves, hiding himself into the night.
The flames and smoke were quickly discovered.
"It's gone!"
"Quickly put out the fire!"
The guards of the Yan family came quickly and put out the fire before it broke out. Yan Du's body was carried out. Looking at his son who was still on the ground, Yan Hua's eyes were filled with pain.
"Where is the murderer?"
The guard's face turned pale, "I didn't... didn't find it..."
Yan Hua waved his hand violently, and the man's head was like a ripe watermelon, splitting into pieces in an instant.
"Go find it!"
"He can't escape far!"
"If the murderer is not caught, you will all be buried with the young master!"
Everyone dispersed in fear.
The Yan family is in chaos!
On the eaves, Luo Guan looked solemn, and Yan Hua's blow to kill the guard... was terrible.
"Ten Thousand Levels Realm!"
Xuangui said: "That's right."
At this moment, Yan Hua's eyes swept around like an eagle. When he passed by Luo Guan, he suddenly felt the sting of needles, but his body was as motionless as dead wood or tiles.
Xu Hai said in a deep voice: "Brother Yan, the murderer must have escaped after he succeeded. Let's go after him separately."
"Excuse me, Brother Xu!"
call out--
call out--
The two of them rushed into the night.
With his thoughts moving slightly, Luo Guan continued to lie on the spot.
After a while, two figures walked out of the darkness. They were Yan Hua and Xu Hai who had been chased out just now.
Yan Hua's face was ashen.
Xu Hai said slowly: "The murderer has indeed escaped, and the clues left behind have been destroyed by the fire. It will be difficult to catch him." After a brief pause, "Then tomorrow..."
Yan Hua took a deep breath and said, "Act as planned."
Turn around and leave.
Xu Hai didn't stay long, frowned and left.
Before taking action against the Luo family, Yan Du was actually killed... What a bad luck, I hope nothing happens!
After waiting for a while, Luo Guan quietly climbed down the eaves, left Yan's house with all his hands and feet, destroyed his night clothes and threw them into the garbage, and returned home.
Close the door, pour yourself a cup of herbal tea, and drink it all in one gulp.
"Teacher, in ten days, can I break through to the Hundred Man Realm?"
The Luo family has one million-level person, and even if the Hu family comes to help, there are only two, but the Yan family and the Qingjiang Gang join forces, but there are three ten-thousand-level members!
After thinking about it, Luo Guan decided not to tell everyone in the Luo family about this to prevent them from panic. Now only his cultivation breakthrough can help him deal with the dangerous situation.
Xuangui said: "Perfect foundation building brings you strength that far exceeds that of ordinary practitioners, but the difficulty of breaking through will also increase."
"In ten days, even with the help of the purple jade gathering spirit lamp, it may not be possible."
"Maybe we can think of other ways."
Luo Guan shook his head, "It was a helpless move to go to Jinding that day. The disciple can no longer let the teacher take risks for his own selfish reasons."
His eyes were firm, "I want to try!"
Xuangui said happily: "The path of cultivation ultimately depends on yourself. It's rare that you have this kind of character, so hurry up."
"is teacher!"
Sitting cross-legged, Luo Guan took out the purple jade spirit-gathering cup. The cup was filled with spiritual fluid. He raised his head and drank the spiritual fluid, which instantly turned into heat and spread out.
Buzz——
The sword skills of the Twelve Emperors of the Wilderness are circulating, constantly transporting and absorbing them, generating a large amount of qi and blood. After one night, the spiritual liquid was exhausted. Luo Guan clenched his fists. His strength improved again, but the opportunity for a breakthrough did not appear.
Luo Guan thought about it and got up to go out. Although Jin Ya agreed to help, he still had to make sure.
Soon, I met Luo Ning and others on the road, and they all looked happy.
"Luo Guan!" Luo Ning's eyes lit up, "Where did you go yesterday? I wasn't home when I looked for you."
Luo Guan said casually: "I went to meet a friend." His eyes flickered, "You just came out of the ancestral hall, what happened?
Luo Ning laughed, "Good news!"
"Early this morning, the Jinding Chamber of Commerce announced that a grand auction will be held in ten days. Among them, there are rare magic weapons that can be held in battle with Chongxiao! The news spread that Jiangning was in a state of excitement, and many forces sent people to prepare for the accident. Order that private fights are strictly prohibited in Jiangning City until the end of the auction!"
"Under such circumstances, the Yan family and the Qingjiang Gang will never dare to commit crimes. Once the Hu family's help arrives, our crisis will be solved!"
Luo Guan nodded, Jin Ya was a very fast woman.
Luo Ning looked confused, "Why do you look like you knew this before?" He leaned over and said, "Could it be the famous Jinding shopkeeper you met yesterday..."
Luo Guan's expression froze slightly.
"Hahaha! What a beautiful idea you have, what kind of status is Jinya? It is said that the invitations from the City Lord's Mansion have been rejected. How can we see him?" Luo Ning said jokingly, "No kidding, just now Qingqing said she wanted to go find her. You just happened to meet me."
Xu Qingqing came over, blushing, "Luo Guan, it was my fault yesterday..."
Looking at her appearance, Luo Guan felt naive. When the survival of the family was at stake, how could he care about this? He said calmly: "It's okay."
Luo Ning glanced at him and said, "We are going to visit Xu Tai to worship, and then have a dinner to discuss spiritual practice, shall we go together?"
Luo Guan shook his head, "I still have something to do, please give my regards to Brother Luo Ning."
He nodded to a few people and turned to leave.
"Why is Luo Guan like this?"
"Qingqing even apologized, it's simply too much!"
"Isn't it just that we have condensed the Heavenly Bones? None of us are. Why are you so proud?"
Luo Ning frowned and glared at the people in Broken Mouth, "Qingqing, Luo Guan is reliable. If he says something happens, something will happen. Let's find an opportunity to get together again."
Xu Qingqing nodded silently, looking at Luo Guanyuan's back, feeling empty in his heart, as if he had lost something important.
Confirming that the delay plan was successful, Luo Guan went to Luo Zhenyang's residence, talked to his father, and explained that he wanted to retreat. When he returned to his residence, he ordered his servants to prepare water, dry food, etc., and ordered no one to disturb him.
Practice!
…
Yan family.
Xu Hai looked helpless, "Brother Yan, it seems that our plan has to be postponed."
Yan Hua, who had experienced the pain of losing his son, had black eyes and a hoarse voice, "The Luo family has sent troops to the county to ask for help. It would be a good idea to eradicate them all at once to avoid future troubles."
"Then let them live a few more days!" Xu Hai sneered.
The outcome has already been determined.
The three Ten Thousand Level Realm warriors working together are enough to destroy everything and crush all resistance.
The Luo family will surely perish!
…
In the blink of an eye, seven days passed.
The auction of the golden tripod was approaching, and there was a mixture of dragons and snakes in Jiangning City. Several small-scale fights broke out. The city lord's palace struck hard to suppress all the troublemakers, and only then stabilized the situation.
During this period, Hu Chong, the head of the Hu family, arrived with several Qianshan realm masters. The Luo family breathed a sigh of relief and held a grand welcome dinner. The information that can be collected shows that the Yan family and the Qingjiang Gang did not give up their plan to attack the Luo family.
"Don't be careless. Maybe the Yan family and the Qingjiang Gang have other methods!" Luo Zhenshan made a decision at the family's high-level meeting and sent people to communicate with all parties in Jiangning City to ensure that they would not interfere in the fight between the two sides. In such critical matters, only one's own people can be trusted. Not only the elders and priests, but also the younger members of the clan were ordered to join in.
"Where is Luo Guan?" Several ministers who were short of manpower thought of the only son of the third family.
One person said: "The third elder sent someone to send word that Luo Guan is practicing in seclusion."
These words made several of the worshipers look strange, and the young man who had just condensed his bones was not afraid of flashing his tongue even if he said anything about seclusion!
"This kid, shouldn't he be scared anymore?"
Another worshiper shook his head, "After all, he is a junior and has never experienced storms."
Thinking of Luo Zhenyang's care for this only son, they looked at each other and smiled bitterly, suppressing the idea of continuing to find someone.
After all, Luo Guan is just a bone-condensing junior, what role can he play when big things happen? If you want to hide, just hide!
At this moment, Luo Guan, who was "hiding" in the room, opened his eyes, a burst of light surged, and astonishing fluctuations of energy and blood surged around his body.
Its intensity even exceeds the peak of Qianshan Realm!
But Luo Guan looked helpless. In the past few days, he had been refining the spiritual liquid, and his strength had improved a lot, but he still couldn't break through. After thinking for a while, he said: "Teacher, if you combine it with the elixir, will it be effective?"
Xuangui said: "In your current state, the amount of spiritual liquid produced by refining the Purple Jade Spirit Gathering Cup every day has reached the limit. Taking the elixir will do more harm than good. You should also practice relaxation and relaxation. You have been in seclusion for many days, so rest first. Just take a moment."
Luo Guan took a deep breath, "The teacher is right, the disciple is impatient." He also realized that his current state was not right.
Haste makes waste!
After gathering his thoughts, Luo Guan ordered someone to bring hot water, washed away his fatigue, put on fresh clothes and went out.
Now that the weather is getting colder, several winter plum blossoms in the garden are blooming in the wind, like flames. Luo Guan was entranced for a moment, and didn't come back to his senses until Uncle Ku shouted again.
He said respectfully: "Young master, the head of the family has ordered the younger members of the family to clean the ancestral home today to pay homage to their ancestors and seek their blessings."
This is indeed the habit at every important moment for the family.
Luo Guan nodded, "I'll go right away."
The ancestral home is a dilapidated small courtyard behind the ancestral hall. The ancestors of the Luo family used this as a starting point to build a huge business.
When Luo Guan arrived, almost everyone had arrived.
"let's start."
The fifth elder, who was still injured but still had the same loud voice, curled his lips when he saw Luo Guan.
"I heard that your boy has been practicing hard in seclusion recently."
"We, the elders, are taking care of the family affairs. It's not time for you to step forward yet."
"Don't be impatient in practice, you kid, be careful!"
He dismissed the rumors that Luo Guan was timid and hiding. This kid is not even afraid of death, so why is he afraid of this?
Luo Guan felt a little warm in his heart and said yes.
Seeing his sincere attitude, the fifth elder nodded with satisfaction and waved him to go to work.
A group of juniors from the Luo family quickly cleaned up the ancestral home. The fifth elder placed tributes and led everyone to kneel down and pray.
After going through the process, the fifth elder stood up and said, "Today I am going to choose someone to keep vigil at the ancestral home." He casually pointed at Luo Ning, who agreed with a sad face.
"Nothing else, just leave."
Luo Yong took a step forward and said respectfully: "Fifth Elder, the Yan family and our Luo family have always been at odds. What is the root cause? Disciples and others are very curious. I wonder if you can clear up the confusion?"
Everyone nodded, they also wanted to know.
The fifth elder thought for a while, "This is not a secret. The origin of the feud between the Yan family and our family is this ancestral home."
He raised his finger and pointed, "About three hundred years ago, the ancestors of the Luo family moved to Jiangning and bought this house from someone else as a place to settle down. But I don't know when, there were rumors that there was something hidden in our ancestral house. A peerless sword makes everyone happy, but the idiots from the Yan family actually believe it."
"We can just sell it to them somewhere else, but the ancestral home is the root of our Luo family. There have been frictions over the past two times, and the old grudge has become deeper and deeper."
Everyone was stunned.
Some people couldn't help but say: "There really is something in our ancestral house..."
The fifth elder shook his head, "The Yan family is pursuing that posture. Our ancestors have searched the ancestral house dozens of times, not to mention the peerless sword, not even a piece of iron. So this belongs to the Yan family. The excuse is that I don’t like the Luo family and want to deal with us!”
Xuan Gui's voice suddenly sounded, "Maybe there is a sword hidden in your ancestral house... Find a way to keep it, and you will know once you try it."
Luo Guan's eyes brightened slightly.
After telling the story, the fifth elder left first, and everyone dispersed in twos and threes.
Luo Guan and others were almost gone before he stepped forward and said, "Brother Luo Ning, I see you have a sad face. Do you have anything going on tonight?"
Luo Ning hesitated.
Luo Guan guessed that it had something to do with women and said with a smile, "Okay, if you have anything to do, just go and I'll keep watch for you."
Luo Ning was overjoyed, "Really? Good brother, thank you very much!"
The joy went away.
Luo Guan closed the courtyard door and looked around. When he was cleaning just now, he basically turned around in a circle and didn't notice anything unusual.
Could it be that it's hidden underground?
"If it's so simple, the baby has been found a long time ago, and it's still your turn?" Xuangui said, "Go into the room first."
Following Xuangui's guidance, Luo Guan kept moving.
"Stop, that's it."
"Run the Twelve Emperor Sword Techniques of the Great Wilderness to release the aura of the Emperor Sword."
Luo Guan took a deep breath, raised his hand and shook it forward.
Buzz——
Between the five fingers, a sword shadow emerged out of thin air!
And the moment the sword shadow appeared, like a stone falling into the lake, the space suddenly rippled. The sunlight passes through the windows and door eaves and casts shadows on the ground, living like a fish!
Drawn by the aura of the Imperial Sword, the shadows gathered on their own and formed a simple long sword.
Standing in the air!
