Jian Chen sat cross-legged on the bed, and the energy in the two fourth-level magic cores he held in his hands was continuously absorbed by Jian Chen. Since his strength was promoted to the Great Saint Master, the energy in the magic cores was absorbed faster than before. A lot, especially what surprised Jian Chen was that after waking up, the Ziqing Sword Spirit competed with him for energy no longer as fiercely as before. He could already absorb half of the energy in the magic core, unlike before. Only one layer or even less of the energy could be absorbed, and the remaining nine layers were snatched away by the Purple Green Sword Spirit.
The Purple Green Sword Spirit already has its own consciousness and the ability to think independently. Although it cannot communicate with people normally, it can already connect with Jian Chen's consciousness in another way and convey the meaning it wants to express. A mysterious and mysterious way was passed on to Jian Chen.
In the Kai family, not only Jian Chen was practicing, but even the members of the Raging Flame Mercenary Group took out their magic cores and locked themselves in the room to practice. The appearance of the Xia Family and Tianhua Sect made the Raging Flame Mercenary Group Many members also felt great pressure. Although they had only joined the Raging Flame Mercenary Group for a few days and had not been with Jian Chen for a long time, Jian Chen's behavior had already won the respect of most of the mercenaries. recognition.
In the blink of an eye, it was already dusk. Ever since the people from Huayun Sect left, the Kai family had been very peaceful and no one else came to disturb them.
On a mountain two thousand kilometers away from Wacker City, in the dense forest shrouded in darkness, you can clearly see a large open space, a large number of buildings and pavilions standing in the dark night, with little lights like fireflies. The ground is so obvious in the dark night.
Tianhua Sect, located within the Fenglan Kingdom, is barely considered a first-class strength in the kingdom. It has been almost a hundred years since Tianhua Sect was established. After a hundred years of development, Tianhua Sect has also It has initially reached a certain scale, with thousands of disciples in the sect, including more than fifty masters of the Great Saint Master class alone, making it the largest force within a thousand miles.
In a secret room of this building, two middle-aged men in smart clothes sat opposite each other.
"Uncle Master, the situation is like this. I don't know what action we should take because of this." A middle-aged man said with a serious face, this man was Qingyun. After returning to Tianhuazhong, Qingyun immediately reported the truth of what happened in Wacker City to the head of Tianhua Sect.
The middle-aged man in blue clothes sitting opposite Qingyun lowered his head and pondered. He was Qingtian, the leader of Tianhua Sect. He was five years older than Qingyun. Although the two were not very old, they Qingtian's talent in cultivation is not comparable to Qingyun's. As early as a few years ago, Qingtian had broken through the bottleneck of the Great Saint Master and gloriously became an Earth Saint Master. With his talent, in the past few years, Qingtian Now, I don’t know how far his strength has improved. But Qingyun is still at the peak of the Great Saint Master.
Qingtian frowned and thought for a moment, then said slowly: "Although the fifth-level magic core is very precious, it is not a priceless treasure. In some big cities, the fifth-level magic core is still relatively common. Since Jian Chen refuses to sell it, Then let this matter go, and don't force him or do anything extraordinary. I always feel that this Jian Chen person seems to be not simple. If I offend him, I'm afraid it will cause trouble for our Tianhua Sect."
"Senior brother, are you worried that Jian Chen has some powerful background behind him?" Qingyun's face became a little solemn.
Qingtian nodded slightly and said: "Yes, this is exactly what I am worried about. However, regardless of whether there is any strong background behind Jian Chen, his cultivation talent alone is surprising enough. For someone in his twenties, With such strength at such a young age, even if we look at the entire Tianyuan Continent, there are only a handful of such talents. If we give him a few more years, I am afraid he will have become the top expert in Tianyuan Continent."
"Now we have no grievances against him. It's not worth offending such a genius for a fifth-level magic core. Junior brother, you should return to Wacker City early tomorrow morning. If possible, try to make friends with Sword dust."
Qingyun nodded slightly and said: "Senior brother, I didn't expect you to come together with me. It was because I was worried about this that I went to report the matter to you in person."
Qingtian smiled slightly, looked at Qingyun with a somewhat complicated look, and said: "Junior brother, your strength has reached the peak of the Great Saint Master now. If I provide you with a fifth-level magic core, I wonder if you will be able to break through to the Earth Saint Master. "
Hearing this, Qingyun sighed, with a disappointed look on his face, and shook his head: "No, although the fifth-level magic core can help people break through the Earth Saint Master's chances of success, I'm still not completely sure. Once I destroy the Holy Soldier myself, I'm afraid it will be very difficult." Control the holy weapons to condense again." After saying this, Qingyun paused for a moment, and then said again: "Brother, it's getting late now, I'm going back to my room to rest first, I have to rush to Wacker City early tomorrow morning. "
After saying that, Qingyun stood up and left the secret room.
At the same time, in a mountain range thousands of miles away, a huge villa stood quietly in a small forest. This villa was the Xia family's base camp.
The Xia family has been established for decades, and the first head of the family is already a master of the Earth Saint Master. Because of his existence, the Xia family has become the number one force within a thousand miles. The strength is getting stronger and stronger.
However, the Xia family's headquarters is not in the city. In order to provide greater convenience and unrestricted travel, they directly built the family's headquarters in the wild. They just placed a Xia family in a secondary city dozens of miles away. Division.
At this moment, in the main hall of the Xia family, more than twenty people were sitting quietly in the main hall. In the center of the main hall, a stretcher covered by white cloth was lying there, outlining the shape of a human body, with dots on the white cloth. The bright red blood made the atmosphere in the entire hall seem a bit solemn.
At this time, an old man wearing a white robe and a long beard walked over from the back of the hall and sat directly at the head of the hall. With the appearance of the old man, the people sitting in the row below all had eyes in their eyes. Showing a look of respect.
"See the old master!"
Just when the old man was sitting firmly, the more than twenty people below all left their seats and knelt on the ground to kowtow.
The old man didn't even look at the crowd. He stared closely at the stretcher placed in the center of the hall with a complicated expression. After a moment, the old man waved his hand and said, "Everyone, please sit down."
"Yes, old master!"
It was only then that everyone finally dared to sit down again, and the expressions on their faces were very natural and not unpleasant at all. This shows how high the old man's status is in everyone's minds.
The old man stared at the stretcher lying in the center of the hall for a long time. Finally, he let out a long sigh, stood up from his seat, slowly came to the stretcher and squatted down, reached out and gently untied the white cloth.
I saw the face of a middle-aged man exposed in the air. The middle-aged man's empty eyes were open with no eyes open, and there was a very small wound on his neck that was stained red with blood.
The old man stretched out his palm and slowly closed the middle-aged man's eyes, covered his face with a white cloth with a heavy expression, then walked to the throne and sat down again, staring at everyone with sharp eyes, and said in a deep voice: "What on earth is going on here?" Who killed Uncle Liu Zheng?" Although the old man's tone sounded calm, people who knew him well knew that the old man's heart was filled with anger at this moment.
