When they arrived at the door of the Xia family, the ancestor of the Xia family was greeting him outside the door, with a smile on his face and a gentle nod to Li Mu.
He is nearly two meters tall, has a kind face, and bright eyes. His black beard hangs down to his waist, and his robe sleeves are flowing, giving him an air of aloofness.
As a monk in the Nascent Soul Realm, he seemed very ordinary, not even a trace of his spiritual consciousness was released, and others did not feel any sense of oppression.
His eyes fell on Li Mu's hand, stayed there for a while, and nodded gently.
Several cultivators looked slightly panicked, "Ancestor, why did you go out?"
Even if he is a monk of the same level, the ancestor does not have to go out to welcome guests, let alone a cultivator of the Golden Core Realm? In their opinion, this seemed too grand and even treacherous.
"Haha, little friend Li is very kind to my Xia family, so it doesn't matter if he goes out."
The ancestor smiled easily and didn't take it seriously. He clasped his fists in front of Li Mu and said, "I am Xia Shan of the Xia family. Little friend Li, please come in."
Li Mu quickly bowed and saluted, "Senior is so solemn and solemn, which makes this junior very frightened. Senior invites you first."
"Easy to say, easy to say."
Xia Shan smiled, waved his sleeves, and walked in first. Li Mu led Zheng E, and the two of them followed him. As for Xia Xin, as soon as she entered the door, she was taken away by the Xia family's servants and put in place, needless to say.
The three of them entered a small hall, and the guest of honor sat down.
Li Mu looked around. The decoration of the hall was very low-key, but low-key did not mean simple. It also showed extraordinary in many details, highlighting the identity of the owner.
For example, those futons are actually made of the fourth-grade top-grade fog-condensing grass. They are always filled with cool mist, making people feel peaceful. And a small light red flower bloomed alone in the corner. If Li Mu didn't admit his mistake. That is the sixth-grade high-grade Red Flame Thousand Silkworms. Rich in the power of fire attributes, it is extremely rare, and it is worth at least 100,000 yuan at auction.
Not to mention the walls on all four sides, which are made of sixth-order Qiu Shan jade. As the seasons change, the changes of the four seasons are all reflected in them. Being alone in a room, you can feel the nature of heaven and earth, how wonderful it is.
The ancestor sat on the futon. He stared at Li Mu for a while, smiling and saying nothing.
Xu Mu was slightly surprised, "Senior Xia Shan, please tell me if you have anything to say."
Xia Shan stroked his beard and smiled and said, "My little friend, there is no need to call me senior. You and I are quite compatible, and my little friend has helped my Xia family a lot, so we can be friends as equals. If you want, just call me Brother Xia." "
Li Mu thought for a moment. Smiling and nodding, "Since Senior Xia is so respectful, it is better for me to obey my orders than to be respectful. Brother Xia is good."
Xia Shan nodded with satisfaction, then stood up and saluted Xu Mu solemnly, "The Xia family's ability to save Xia Xin this time is all thanks to little friend Li. From now on, my Xia family will also rely entirely on my little friend. Please accept my kindness." bye."
Li Mu was shocked, and Zheng E was even more surprised. It was completely unheard of for a Yuanying realm monk to salute to a Golden Core realm.
But Xia Shan has obviously made preparations. It would be much better to talk about friendship first and then salute. It would indeed be out of line and loss of face to salute directly to the younger generation. Even with his open-mindedness, he would not dare to do so.
He quickly stood up and returned the salute, saying repeatedly, "Brother Xia is too much, and Li can't bear it."
Xia Shan slowly sat back down, his face became much more solemn, "It's not an exaggeration. Our Xia family has not produced talents for many years. Xia Xin is the hope of the Xia family for hundreds or even thousands of years in the future. Saving Xia Xin is Save my Xia family, no courtesy is too much."
Li Mu nodded lightly. The family is not a sect, and it is impossible to accept unlimited disciples. If the family itself does not have enough talents, it will only slowly wither and weaken to nothing.
"Since Xia Xin is so important, why doesn't Brother Xia protect him personally?" Li Mu had some questions.
Xia Shan shook his head and said with emotion, "Why don't I think about it, but I can't get out of Xing'an City. If I leave the city, the old man from the Miao family will definitely follow him out of the city. There will be no result in my fight with him, and the fight will only make it worse." The young Xin'er was harmed. As a Yuanying realm monk, he couldn't go out of the city to chase Xin'er, who had not yet cultivated, due to his face. Naturally, I wouldn't give him a reason to go out of the city, so I just waited with him."
"I see."
Li Mu nodded, and after thinking about it, he took off the soul-containing ring from his hand and handed it to Xia Shan, "Brother Xia, this contains Xia Liyi's soul. Brother Xia will know the origin of the matter as soon as he asks."
"Thank you, little friend Li."
Xia Shan reached out to take it and smiled, "I have already sensed it. I also used my soul to communicate with Li Yi just now, and I have a clear understanding of the cause of the matter. Don't worry, Li Xiaoyou, a big thank you will be indispensable."
Li Mu was slightly surprised. Xia Shan had already communicated with Xia Liyi, but he didn't feel anything. This was really incredible.
"My little friend, there is no need to be surprised. This way of communication will become apparent to you when you reach the Nascent Soul Realm."
Xia Shan explained kindly, "The communication between Yuan Shen's spiritual thoughts does not require the consumption of true energy. It is normal that my spiritual consciousness cannot detect it. However, you can rest assured. If the Yuan Shen attacks, with my little friend's The powerful spiritual consciousness will definitely sense it."
Li Mu nodded slightly confused. Spiritual consciousness detection or communication requires true energy and will be sensed, but Yuan Shen's spiritual thoughts do not require it. This realm is beyond his reach for the time being.
Xia Shan smiled and said, "Little friend Li, just ask for any kind of thank you you want."
After going through hardships, until this moment, Li Mu looked excited, his eyes were slightly bright, and he was a little uneasy.
The Xia family is just a family, not an aristocratic family that has lasted for thousands of years. However, the wealth of the family is far beyond that of ordinary sects.
He wants to fight for benefits.
"Haha, little friend, you can take your time and think about it. Within my ability, I will try my best to satisfy you." Xia Shan stroked his beard and smiled, looking at Xu Mu indifferently.
Li Mu's mind couldn't stop spinning. He wanted a lot, but he couldn't bear to speak loudly and annoy the Xia family. It would be harmful rather than beneficial.
"I wonder if Brother Xia has any treasures here that can help condense golden elixirs?"
After thinking for a while, Li Mu said slowly. For him, the pagoda is the top priority. However, as the power of the pagoda increases, the number of top-grade spiritual stones and sixth-grade top-grade stones required is too large. It is not easy for him to speak rashly, as it may easily arouse suspicion. In comparison, asking for an auxiliary treasure that condenses golden elixir seems much normal.
Xia Shan nodded calmly, "Yes."
"Excuse me, what is it?" Li Mu looked happy.
Xia Shan directly took out three jade boxes and placed them on the stone table in front of him, "The Yin Yang sparrow eggs can increase the chance of condensation by one tenth, and the white flow pine cones can increase the probability of condensation by about one tenth. Finally, this Pangu sand tree, It’s hard-won, and it can increase the chance of condensing pills by about one-fifth.”
His eyes fell on Zheng E, and he smiled and said, "As far as I know, the chance of condensing pills using external objects can be increased by up to three-tenths. The key is to rely on yourself."
"Three out of ten is enough."
Li Mu was very happy, shook Zheng E's hand, and shouted excitedly.
Before, it was only one-tenth. Once they get these, she and Shen Xuejun can both reach three-tenths. This is really great.
