,
Jian Chen showed a wry smile. He did not expect that things between him and the eldest young master of the Tianqin family would develop to such an extent. However, the eldest young master of the Tianqin family's heroic spirit and generosity also made Jian Chen look at him differently. After saying some polite words, Jian Chen also picked up his wine glass, clinked it with Qin Yao, and then drank the wine in one gulp.
"Brother Jian Chen, you are so strong. If you have time in the future, you must accompany me to learn from each other. Now the guard captains in the family are no longer my opponents. As a result, I can't find anyone to fight with. I can't I'm going to fight those elders of the Earth Saint Master. Isn't this looking for abuse?" Qin Xiao said while drinking.
"Definitely, definitely, as long as I am still here, I can compete with Brother Qinxiao at any time." Jian Chen said with a faint smile. This Qinxiao is really a war-mad maniac, but it is precisely this that prompted him to With his cheerful character, he looks much more pleasing to the eye than some hypocritical characters who appear to be one thing but secretly are another.
"Brother Jian Chen, I see that you two are not locals. I wonder where you are from." Qin Xiao asked with a curious look on his face.
Hearing this, Jian Chen hesitated for a moment and said: "To be honest, the two of us come from a distant kingdom. In order to go to the mercenary city to participate in the mercenary event, we traveled thousands of miles and traveled tens of thousands of miles. After traveling through several kingdoms, I didn’t arrive here until today. I originally planned to rest for a while in the city of Valorance, replenish my supplies and then continue on my way, but I didn’t expect that something like this happened as soon as I entered the city.”
Upon hearing this, Qin Xiao immediately became happy, slapping the table and laughing: "This is such a coincidence. I didn't expect that brother Jian Chen would also go to the Mercenary City to participate in the mercenary event. Haha, we just happen to be together." road."
"What? Is Brother Qinxiao also going to attend the mercenary event?" A look of surprise appeared on Jian Chen's face.
"That's natural. The rewards for the mercenary event are too generous. No force in Tianyuan Continent is unmoved, and our Tianqin family is no exception. Our Tianqin family will also send several direct members to this mercenary event. In the past, I was one of them." Qin Xiao said happily.
"Brother Jian Chen, you and I hit it off right away. Why don't you just stay in my Tianqin family first, and then rush to the mercenary city with us in two months."
Hearing this, Jian Chen frowned slightly and said: "Qinxiao, it seems that there is only less than half a year before the mercenary event, and there are still hundreds of thousands of kilometers away from here to the mercenary city. Just hurrying. It will take several months, and if we don’t set off until two months later, I’m afraid we won’t be able to get to the mercenary city in time.”
Qin Xiao laughed and said: "It seems that Brother Jian Chen hasn't heard of the Space Gate yet."
"The Gate of Space!" Jian Chen was stunned, and then a memory buried deep in his mind emerged. His expression suddenly became a little surprised, and he said: "Qin Xiao, do you still have someone in the Tianqin family?" The gate to space?"
The Gate of Space, Jian Chen had seen records about it in the library of Zhonghe Kargas Academy in Changyang Mansion. It is said that the Gate of Space is a magical portal, completely constructed of space, and can be found on the entire Tianyuan Continent. It is very rare, because this is a world gate that can only be created by the Holy Emperor-level peerless experts. Currently, only the seven major super cities known to the outside world have space gates.
It is said that through the gate of space, one can cross thousands of miles in just one step, and can cross to the other end of Tianyuan Continent in one step. It is very magical and mysterious. It is the only magical portal in Tianyuan Continent that can transmit long distances.
Jian Chen's words made Qin Xiao smile bitterly and said: "Brother Jian Chen, you think too highly of my Tianqin family. How could such a divine object be controlled by our Tianqin family, let alone our Tianqin family?" Family, even our Zhuya Kingdom does not have a space gate. However, among the allies of our Zhuya Kingdom, there is one country that has a space gate. Our Tianqin family plans to go to the Mercenary City through this space gate. of."
"Oh, that's it!" Jian Chen suddenly realized, and immediately looked excited. With the Space Gate, he wouldn't have to work so hard to rush to the mercenary city. Now, Jian Chen couldn't help but secretly rejoice that he was lucky. When he arrived at Valorance City, otherwise, he would never have been able to use the Space Gate to travel.
Although it is recorded on Tianyuan Continent that only seven major super cities have space gates, this is only on the surface. No one can tell how many space gates are hidden secretly.
In the Tianqin family, in a quaint study.
"What! You said that Xiao Er casually brought someone to the family outside to make nonsense. This is simply nonsense. How can anyone from our Tianqin family come in?" A man wearing a gray luxurious robe The middle-aged man immediately stood up from his chair with an angry look on his face.
The middle-aged man is about forty years old. He naturally exudes an aura that belongs to a superior person. His speech and behavior are full of grandeur. His shrewd eyes are bright and sparkle from time to time.
Opposite the middle-aged man, stood a woman wearing a white dress and a veil on her face. She was the second young lady of the Tianqin family.
"Dad, the eldest brother has a more straightforward character, but the person he brought this time seems to be quite extraordinary. He is young but so strong. Even the eldest brother is not his opponent. But what surprised my daughter is , the eldest brother lost to him, but he was convinced that he lost, and he admired him very much. This is the first time since my daughter has grown up that I have seen the eldest brother admire someone so much." The second lady of the Tianqin family has a voice like a lark. It's as lively as a bird, crisp and soft, and when heard in people's ears, it makes people feel excited.
"Oh, since this happened, it seems necessary for me to meet this little guy and see what kind of person he is, so that Xiao Er admires him so much." The middle-aged man murmured to himself, his face The angry look on his face has dissipated a lot.
At Qin Xiao's residence, Jian Chen and Ming Dong were drinking and eating meat with Qin Xiao. Qin Xiao was straightforward and bold. After some chatting, their friendship became stronger inadvertently. a bit.
"Xiao'er, this place is usually quiet, why has it become so noisy today?" Just as the three of them were drinking to their heart's content, a faint voice suddenly came.
Following the words, a middle-aged man wearing a gray luxurious robe was seen walking in from the outside.
"Dad, why are you here!" Seeing the person coming, Qin Xiao immediately stood up from the chair and said.
The middle-aged man glanced at Jian Chen and Ming Dong, and said with a smile: "It's been a long time since I've been here. Daddy came here specially to see you." After saying that, the middle-aged man looked at Jian Chen and Ming Dong, Said: "Xiao'er, you brought your friends here, why don't you introduce them to your father?"
"Dad, let me introduce to you, these two friends we only made when we were children are called Jian Chen and Ming Dong." Qin Xiao pointed at Jian Chen and the two of them and smiled.
Jian Chen and Ming Dong immediately stood up from their chairs, cupped their hands towards the middle-aged man, and said, "Jian Chen, I have met the head of the Tianqin family!"
"Mingdong, I have met the head of the Tianqin family!"
The middle-aged man glanced at Ming Dong roughly, and then focused on Jian Chen. After looking at him carefully, a hint of surprise flashed through the middle-aged man's eyes, and then he nodded with a smile. He said: "Yes, he is indeed a talented person. I wonder where this little brother is from."
Before Jian Chen could speak, Qin Xiao spoke first: "Dad, brothers Jian Chen are not from our Zhuya Kingdom. They come from a distant kingdom. They came all the way here just to attend the mercenary event. Unintentionally Passing by our city of Valorance.”
"Oh, so that's it. Haha, little brother Jian Chen comes from thousands of miles away. Since you can be close to me, it seems that you two are also destined to be together. Qin Xiao, dad has important things to deal with, so I'll spend more time with you. Friends." The middle-aged man was very easy-going, as if he were a loving father, without any airs of being the head of the family.
Afterwards, the middle-aged man left here, and only Jian Chen and the other three were left in the room.
Next, Jian Chen and the two accepted Qin Xiao's invitation to temporarily live in the Tianqin family because of the Space Gate matter, because with the help of the Space Gate, they could quickly rush to the mercenary city without having to It’s a long journey like before.
In the evening, Jian Chen and Mingdong were arranged in a side courtyard of the Tianqin family. This place was relatively remote, and even the patrol guards of the Tianqin Jing family rarely set foot here.
Late at night, Jian Chen held two magic cores in his hands and sat cross-legged on the bed to practice. In order to achieve good results at the mercenary event, Jian Chen must improve his strength as soon as possible. His goal is to enter the top three and achieve Heaven level combat skills.
Suddenly, Jian Chen's ears twitched slightly, and his slightly closed eyes suddenly opened. He saw two divine lights flashing away in the dark night, and the silver-white light wind sword instantly appeared in his hand. Jian Chen flew up, lightly. The wind sword turned into a black light and stabbed towards the roof.
"Wow!"
With a burst of noise, the tiles on the roof suddenly cracked, and a black shadow fell from the roof. As a scream broke through the air, a hard object collided with the light wind sword thrust out by Jian Chen. The powerful force of the counter-shock made Jian Chen's arms feel numb, and there was a huge pain from the tiger's mouth, and the skin had cracked.
Jian Chen was horrified in his heart. The strength of this person was too strong. Just one fight was too much for him. He was at least an Earth Saint Master of rank three or above.
Jian Chen flipped in the air and landed firmly on the ground. He stared at the black shadow with sharp eyes and said in a deep voice: "Who are you!"
The black shadow didn't say anything, and the black iron rod in his hand struck Jian Chen again with an ear-piercing scream.
Jian Chen snorted coldly, and the light wind sword in his hand suddenly burst out with a layer of faint purple and green light. It was so eye-catching in the dark room. The next moment, the light wind sword remained in the dark space. The next ray of silver-white sword light pierced toward the incoming black iron rod like lightning.
"Ding!" The two collided, and Jian Chen staggered back a few steps. The mysterious man who suddenly attacked him was extremely powerful. He had at least reached the stage of the third-level Earth Saint Master, and even the fourth-level and fifth-level earth saint masters. Turning around is simply not something that Jian Chen can defeat.
Despite this, the purple-green sword energy on the light wind sword still cut a gap the size of a hand in the black iron rod in the mysterious man's hand.
The mysterious man's whole body trembled suddenly, and then a hoarse voice came from his mouth: "No... this is impossible." The mysterious man's tone was full of shock, and then a black shadow flashed, and his body rushed out of the roof and disappeared instantly. As quickly as it comes, it goes as quickly as it comes.
Jian Chen stared at the big hole in the roof without saying anything. The light in his eyes flickered, and then a meaningful smile appeared on the corner of his mouth.
