It’s spring again.
The winter snow melts and everything revives.
Li Jingqiu's body was stolen, Zhong Yan felt like a lump in his throat, and he felt worried. He always felt that things were not that simple and that it was not over yet.
However, no clues have been found, so we can only put it aside for the time being.
At the beginning of March, the Zhong Mansion ushered in a happy event.
He Jinyan gave birth to a son with dual attributes of true spiritual roots.
There are also Ding Wanjun and Wen Hong who have been pregnant for half a year.
The population is getting more and more prosperous.
On this day, everyone was joking in the courtyard, and Zhong Xiaoshun came quickly.
"Master, Guard Lin is here!"
Zhong Yan was slightly startled. This was the first time Lin Zhengping came to visit him after he came back from taking pills. It seemed like something big was going on.
He handed the baby into Yu Qingyao's hands and walked quickly.
Zhong Xiaozhong followed and said: "The guard looks relaxed, there must be good news."
Go to the side hall.
Zhong Yanlang smiled and said: "Mr. Lin! I have something to report, and I am looking for you. Why should I bother you to go there in person?"
Lin Zhengping smiled, put down his teacup and stood up, "Let's go and see the scenery in your house."
Zhong Yan was surprised and said with a smile: "It's rare for a senior to be so elegant, please come here!"
Go out for a while.
Lin Zhengping said: "Are you interested in going outside and seeing the world?"
Zhong Yan was stunned for a moment, then blinked and came to his senses: "Senior, are you going to Dachu to participate in the vassal competition?"
Lin Zhengping nodded: "I will lead the team this time. We will set off at the end of the month. I still have a spot that I can give you."
It was natural to think so, but Zhong Yan had other plans. In the future, there would be more opportunities to travel far away, so he asked: "Who are all going?"
"I and four other elders, plus forty disciples, ten in the late stage of Qi refining, ten in the early, middle and late stages of foundation building..."
"In the past, there were only five reserved places, and the remaining ones were selected through open competitions. This time, due to the delay in the Yunmeng Secret Realm, all the personnel were reserved."
Lin Zhengping shook his head as he spoke. Looking at his expression, he didn't seem to have much hope for this result.
Find out in detail.
The participating disciples are only limited to those under sixty years old.
The realm of each level is not broken down. For example, if you are in the first level of foundation building, but the competitor is in the first level of foundation building, your opponent may be in the third level of foundation building.
In addition to individual competitions, there are also five-person team competitions.
There are five contestants from the Yan Kingdom, each from the Fire Cloud Sect and Chiyang Sect, two from each of the remaining sects, and the others are from various powerful families ranked high in the rankings.
Lin Zhengping randomly reported some foundation building realms.
Zhong Yan heard three familiar names, Qifeng Pei Nanjin, Tang Sanyuan of the Tang family, and Chu Xin of the Xuanyin Sect.
He couldn't help but mutter, Pei Nanjin had built the seventh level of the Foundation. Even if he cultivated the 'Ultimate Critical', he would still be at a disadvantage. Maybe his opponent was the Great Perfection of the Foundation.
Tang Sanyuan had the advantage, he was stuck at the peak of the sixth level of foundation building, and had the highest block in the middle stage of foundation building.
"Generally, the contestants are at the peak of each period, but there are exceptions. For example, those who are appointed are not only our Yan country, but also other countries. In many small countries like Yan country, the junior monks of this age group have never been outside the country. It is necessary The main way to increase your knowledge when going out is to watch the draws for each event..."
After saying that, Lin Zhengping smiled and asked, "How is it?"
"With your fighting ability, there shouldn't be any suspense about making the list in the individual competition. You are in your fifties. If you don't go this time, you won't be able to compete next time."
Zhong Yan was stunned in his heart. The fifth level of foundation building destroyed the peak of the sixth level of foundation building of a large sect. It was too late to hide from such a dazzling thing.
As for awards and honors, he doesn't care about them at all.
"Junior wants to go, but I can't leave. There are a lot of things at home, and..."
After a pause, Zhong Yan blinked and said, "Isn't the Yunmeng Secret Realm about to open?"
Lin Zhengping said with a smile: "It's none of your business to open it! Apart from the people from the Shenxiao Sect, the first batch of people who can enter the Yan Kingdom must be the old guys from the major forces. If I'm not around, who will take you to play? Wait until the raids are done and the secret realm is divided. When it is half open, I have already returned from Dachu, so there will be no delay."
Zhong Yan said: "Thank you for your kindness, senior. Let's forget it. I have to spend time thinking about how to protect this family business."
Lin Zhengping nodded to express his understanding: "Then I will sell my quota to others."
Sell?
Zhong Yan laughed.
Lin Zhengping stopped and looked around, then suddenly said: "Borrow some money to spend."
Zhong Yan looked at each other and saw that his old face was red and slightly embarrassed, so he couldn't help but smile to himself. This must be the reason why he took the initiative to come to the door.
The number should not be small.
"How much does Mr. Lin want?"
Lin Zhengping tried: "One million?"
Zhong Yan's mouth opened slightly, with an expression like 'Why do you think I can have a million?'
Although Zhong Mansion’s assets have exceeded five million.
But most of it was not cash, but was exchanged for resource goods in various stores.
As for the more than three million given by Master Jiang Huan and the harvest from Mangdang Mountain, outsiders don't know about it.
"Stop pretending, you brat!"
Lin Zhengping cursed with a smile and said: "With your urine, how can you not have a side job in these years? I heard that when you were in Immortal City, a group of women in your family started a small business and robbed the Qiu family. !”
Zhong Yan's mouth twitched.
Lin Zhengping added: "I just happened to buy something in Dachu. I'll borrow it for five years and pay you back according to the bank's interest."
"Senior, you are living alone, how could you know how terrible it is for a big family like me to spend money..."
As he said this, Zhong Yan looked like he was thinking seriously, and after a while he smiled and said, "I have to find a store for you! Senior, give me a few days, and I will deliver it to your house."
…
The next day.
Unexpectedly, Pei Nanjin came to the door.
Because Zhong Yan had summoned her several times before and wanted to meet, but was rejected for various reasons.
Unexpectedly, he took the initiative to come to the door before leaving.
Also coming with him is Gongsun Nuannuan, the ninth disciple of Qifeng. She is a young girl in her twenties, but she is still very out-of-the-box, carefree and fun-loving.
Had a little get-together.
After the three sisters talked about old times and said goodbye, Pei Nanjin found Zhong Yan alone.
The two of them stood on the promenade and looked at the scenery in the garden.
Zhong Yan couldn't help but think of the last time he met Li Lin. The master and apprentice had really similar personalities.
He broke the silence and asked: "Nuan Nuan also participates?"
Gongsun Nuannuan has a different attribute, Wind Spirit Root, and is extremely talented. It is not known whether he is lazy or trying his best to suppress his realm. After so many years, he has only built the second floor.
Pei Nanjin said: "Enter Shenxiao Sect."
Zhong Yan was surprised: "The sect is willing?"
It is a mandatory rule for subordinate forces to send outstanding seedlings to upper-level sects.
In addition, if a disciple has entered the late stage of foundation building or is old, it will be difficult for him to make progress within the sect. He can travel far away to look for opportunities and seek better development, but he will still be a member of the sect and may be able to protect the sect from the wind in the future. Rain, such as Dongfangtuo.
Neither Gong Su nor Nuan Nuan belong to him. If he leaves, he will leave the sect and become a disciple of another sect.
He has just been trained and has not contributed to the sect's success. Especially when the current situation is chaotic and the sect is short of manpower, how can he be released easily?
Pei Nanjin: "Senior Sister has taken care of it and handed over half of the medicine garden and spiritual field to the sect. The rest is not clear."
The corner of Zhong Yan's mouth twitched. Su Yue must have lost everything Li Lin left behind.
However, Gongsun Nuannuan can indeed achieve better development if he goes out.
There is no need to worry about forming the elixir, but someone still has to take care of the practice during the Nascent Soul stage, it’s just that the time has been advanced.
Zhong Yan asked: "What about you?"
Pei Nanjin was silent for a moment and said: "You don't need me now. With Zhou Yun here, almost no one in the Yan country can do anything to get you. I have fulfilled my master's instructions. After the competition, I plan to stay in the Chu country. Walk around the Eastern Region, and then go to Zhongzhou to find Master."
So, this is the last parting scene?
