The physical awakening was in full swing, and in the family's field, a girl with pigtails, a light red dress, and a pair of hollow pink and white shoes was running quickly.

The girl has a beautiful face, with a small cherry mouth, a straight nose, a pair of big twinkling eyes, and a small pink face, which makes people feel lovable. The childishness that can be seen at a glance shows that the girl is at least sixteen years old.

The girl did not shy away from the filth in the field, and ran directly to a young man who was busy farming, shouting happily: "Brother Yangyu, brother Yangyu, why are you still working! Your parents are anxious to death, today But it’s the family’s awakening meeting, why are you still working!”

Hearing the voice, the young man raised his head. His yellowish skin gave people a feeling of sunshine. His seven-foot height and thin but strong body reflected the young man's ability at all times. The black hair is coiled on the top of the head, the eyes are bright, and the facial features are exquisite. Although he is wearing common clothes, he can't hide the heroic spirit of the young man.

The young man gently wiped the sweat on his head and said with a smile: "Your brother and I are just children from ordinary families. I can't awaken any physical fitness, so I might as well work honestly!".

"Hmph! Anyway, it was your parents who asked me to call you over. If you are not there then, let's see how uncle deals with you," Belle said angrily.

Hearing Belle mention his father, the boy stopped smiling and said repeatedly: "Okay, okay, I'll go now, and what's more! How long has it been since the Awakening Conference started?"

Belle just reacted and said angrily: "It's all your fault. It's been a long time. Come on." After saying that, the girl wanted to hold the boy's hand.

The young man had a dark look on his face and thought to himself, we have only met for less than 10 minutes, how can you blame me? ~. The young man who reacted smiled and said: "Belle, why do you look so good in your clothes today! Do you have someone you like? Come on, come on, my brother will help you check it out."

The girl stamped her feet angrily and said, "Are you still the cousin who cares about me the most? I am fourteen this year, and I also want to awaken my physique."

Hearing this, the young man scratched his head in embarrassment and said with a smile: "It's my brother's fault, but the conference is about to end, so we'd better go quickly!". As he spoke, Yang Yu took a step forward before the girl's hand could catch it.

Seeing this, the girl murmured in a low voice: "Besides, Belle also wants to wear it for you to show to her brother, big wood."

The young man looked back at Belle who was speaking softly and said, "Little girl, what are you talking about?".

"Huh, big wood, big wood, huh, let's go quickly. Besides, I'm not a little girl." Belle also ran out and replied complainingly.

The boy had a dark look on his face again, thinking to himself, girls are really hard to figure out. "Don't walk so fast, wait for me!".

"Humph, I won't."

In the midst of the noise, boys and girls also rushed to the main platform.

The style of the painting changed, and in a pale yellow room, a sinister old man was sitting on a high seat, listening to what the people below were reporting. If you observe carefully, you may find that they are masked people coming out of the awakening venue.

After hearing this, the old man looked up to the sky and laughed: "So what if you have the strongest immortal physique? Without the support of fresh blood, the Qi family will fall sooner or later."

After finishing speaking, the old man looked at the young man sitting in the corner of the hall. The young man was dressed in light yellow and arrogant. Even in the solemn hall with a group of old men, his expression did not change.

That's right, he is the latest genius of the Mingjie family, "Yao Yu". He has an intermediate physique, main Mingjie (30%) and deputy thunder tribulation (15%). It can be said that he is a genius rarely seen in the Yao family in the past nearly a hundred years.

Then, the old man Yin Xiao said to himself: "Qi Zhen, just as your Qi family came into poverty a hundred years ago, I want you to leave in the same way." After saying that, the old man shook his head and said, "It should be genocide."

Everyone in the hall did not dare to answer the question. After the old man finished speaking, they immediately asked: "Chief, what should we do next?".

The old man Yin Xiao cleared his throat and said: "Contact those families first, and ignore the remaining small families. As long as they have eyesight, we will start taking action after the blood moon."

At this time, an old man from Longzhong said: "Chief Yao Wei, the physical growth of the Qi family is too high, and we don't know the background. Besides, the daughter of their young patriarch has not received the news yet. Please think twice."

Yao Heng looked at the old man who spoke, calmed down and said: "Wangxiang Town is located in the southeast and lacks resources. Even if they have the background, they are not as good as our three major families combined, and that woman, even if she wakes up, We don’t have to give her a chance to grow because of her physical condition.”

Speaking of this, the old man Yin Xiao said sternly: "My physique is 7% higher than Qi Zhen's. In the end, I am still not as good as him, but no matter how strong the physique is, there are bottlenecks. No matter how strong he is, he can't beat three spiritual skill kings."

"Aren't the remaining two families determined to cooperate?" said the old man Long Zhong.

"The Qi family is getting stronger and stronger, and now they have monopolized the power of Wangxiang Town on the fourth floor. I believe that those two old guys are not blind enough to see this," Yao Heng replied calmly.

"But..." Old Man Long Zhong wanted to say more.

"There is nothing more to worry about," the old man Yin Xiao interrupted: "Okay, don't say any more, I have already decided, and the next step is to wait."

The old man Long Zhong stopped talking, and after a group of echoing voices from the audience, he slowly left the stage.

The Yin Xiao old man sat alone in the hall and said to himself: "Why would Lier not choose me if I am better than you? I don't understand. Is it because your physique is superior to mine? No, then I will kill you." , let Li'er see, I am the best." After saying that, the old man touched the tear spar in his hand and immersed himself in it.

Soon after, two waves of people came to the first house in the center of the two quaint but majestic houses. It was someone sent by the Mingjie family, after performing simple etiquette.

The leader of the visitor said: "Master of the Conquering Family, I believe that you all know the process of awakening of the Immortal Family, and you all also know the growth of the Immortal Family's status in the past few decades." The leader really wanted to say something more, but the head of the Conquest family interrupted him and said: "Just tell me what you want to do, I don't want to beat around the bush."

At first, the leader was stunned in embarrassment, but after hearing what the old man said, he also said happily: "The quality of the new students in the Immortal family is getting worse and worse, and Qi Zhen's growth is close to stagnant. After the blood moon, we Launching a general offensive is the best time to drive them away."

Seeing that after listening to his speech, the head of the conquering family was no longer as decisive as before, the leader felt that there was a trick, so he took advantage of the victory and pursued: "You know this is Wangxiang Town, but after a hundred years, can Xiangxiang Town surpass us? No way. In reality, we don’t have to think about it, we can only leave better resources to our descendants.”

Seeing the even more troubled expression of the head of the Conquering family, the leader continued: "As I said, the family doesn't care about us at all, so we don't have to be afraid of revenge, and we are the ones waiting for sin, so we might as well take advantage of it." Let’s live here in Wangxiang Town.”

After saying that, the leader stopped talking and stepped aside. He whispered again: "Clan Chief Wei, please think about it carefully." After saying that, he bowed and left.

"Wait a minute, I agree with your suggestion. Also, I, Wei Liyuan, still understand whether to drive away or exterminate the clan. I don't need to talk about Yao Wei and Qi Zhen anymore. Next time you talk to me, please don't beat around the bush. No need to beat around the bush, got it?”

The leader bowed and agreed, waved with the conquering family master, and walked out of the hall.

At the same time, under the same words, the head of the Qianggong family looked sad at first, and then said sternly: "Drive away, haha, don't treat me like a three-year-old child, but what you said is also very reasonable. , but I have a condition."

Hearing that there was a turn of events, the leader quickly asked: "What are the conditions? Master Wang, please tell me."

"My conditions are that things can be done, but not too extreme. Children under the age of three from the Immortal family should not be killed, but sent to the abandoned city," the head of the Qianggong family said.

"This..." The leader was in trouble: "I know you can't be the master of this matter. Go back and talk to your family leader. I have plenty of time to wait."

"No need, there was a loud voice coming from the door." The person who came was none other than Yao Wei.

"Everyone says that you, Wang Meng, have a kind heart. I know it today, but I still have memories of you when you were three years old, maybe one year old."

Seeing the anger on the face of the head of the Wang family, Yao Heng shook his head and said: "Well, two years old, doing great things does not rely on kindness."

Wang Meng looked at Yao Heng's determined face, shook his head helplessly and said, "Okay, you have to keep your word."

"Hahaha, that's inevitable." After saying that, before Wang Meng could say anything else, Yao Heng had already walked out of the door. In the hall, when the Wang family was about to say something, Wang Meng waved his hand and said, "Go down and leave me alone for a while."

In an instant, the head of the Wang family was the only one in the room, and he said to himself: "Hey, Qi family, please wish yourself well."

The Awakening Conference is still going on, but every once in a while, it will stop for a while. Because of the awakening of the physique, only the powerful masters of Spiritual Skill King and above can have this ability.

Therefore, there are not only 60% ordinary people in Tianyun Continent, but some people who will never have a chance to awaken in their lifetime. There are only four major families in Wangxiang Town, each with a Spiritual Skill King. The remaining small families must rely on the four major families to avoid being removed from their family identity.

Therefore, there are not many new fourteenth-year-old girls and sixteen-year-old young people in the Qi family, but it still takes close to a day.

"Father, why don't you just take a rest today and come back tomorrow?" Qi Wei said worriedly.

"No, I am the leader of the clan, and I am the leader. I cannot break the rules of the Qi family," the old man replied happily.

Hearing this, Qi Wei nodded helplessly, put away his rarely concerned face, and said solemnly: "Next one."

The old man continued the awakening ceremony, and among the crowd, a beautiful girl and a handsome boy squeezed in. The girl followed the boy as if she was looking for someone. After walking among the crowd for a while, the two came to a middle-aged man and woman who were dressed in common clothes but were clean and tidy.

The girl jumped in front of them and said: "Uncle and aunt, good afternoon."

The middle-aged men and women responded happily: "Okay, okay, Belle is really getting more and more beautiful!". The girl blushed slightly and walked to the middle-aged woman's side and stopped talking.

Seeing Yang Yu coming, the middle-aged man became serious and was about to speak. But the young man said in advance: "Dad, I know, you have said it many times in the past few days, we are ordinary people, if we awaken our physique, no matter we are strong or weak, we must practice well, and then we can contribute to the family. If It doesn’t matter if we haven’t awakened yet, our silent contribution is also a reward for the family.” The middle-aged man nodded and said, "Okay, Yu'er remember what you said."

At this time, the girl who had listened to the father and son's words said playfully: "Brother Yangyu, if you awaken your good physique, don't forget me. You said you would protect your sister."

The boy turned around, touched the girl's head gently and said, "What did you say? Even if you don't wake up, my brother will still protect you, because you are my sister." The girl's face, which had just been about to be happy, calmed down again.

The call for "Next" came from the stage again, but no one came on stage for a long time, and the young patriarch's eyes seemed to be searching for something. After seeing Belle, his eyes flashed with concern, and then returned to calm. He shouted solemnly: "The next Qi Xinbei".

When Belle heard her father calling her, she was excited at first, and then a little angry and said: "Father is really bad, why do you still call me by my name in front of so many people?"

Everyone's eyes were also focused on the girl, who walked towards the platform a little awkwardly.

"Isn't this the young patriarch's daughter? She's grown so big."

"I don't know what kind of physique can be awakened, but it's a pity that it's a girl."

"You are so slim and graceful. I wonder if you can fall in love with my child."

………

Amid the divergent opinions, Beier walked up to the clan leader. She looked sideways at her father, then turned to look at Brother Yangyu who had been paying attention to her, and then she closed her eyes and prepared to wake up.

Although it was the old man's granddaughter who had awakened, the old man had no intention of special treatment. As always, the old man first cheered up his flagging spirit, and then the light green light gradually ignited in his right hand. Without hesitation, the old man began to draw gestures, and then accompanied by incomprehensible spells, the green light gradually faded into the girl's mind.

Putting away his burning right hand, the old man was a little confused. First of all, he didn't feel the fatigue that he had when he awakened others before. Instead, he felt a sense of relief. Secondly, the girl did not have any obvious body shaking like the previous awakened ones.

"Could it be an ordinary person? It's impossible. I can feel the feeling of a mortal in an instant. Could it be another physique? But our family still takes the Gujisan bought from Yaolingdu. Is it fake medicine? No Maybe, or rather, Li'er is you?" The old man kept speculating in his mind.

Both the people at the elders' table and Qi Wei standing aside had expressions of confusion and worry. Except for the people in the audience, they were whispering to each other about insignificant topics.

Suddenly, the girl began to tremble slightly, and a comfortable breath began to spread around her body. As the smell spread, everyone in the audience also smelled this strange smell. The noisy crowd began to calm down, and even some people who kept coughing from colds also calmed down.

Looking at this strange scene, the old man stretched out his hands and closed his eyes to feel something. His doubtful expression flashed away, replaced by an expression of relief, pride and longing. For a moment, the whole audience didn't know what to do. what's good.

The old man increased his intake of light green light. After a while, the girl stopped trembling, and everyone greedily drank up the scent. The girl's hair slowly turned from black to white-green, and her delicate body slowly grew, but it seemed to only grow a little, and you couldn't notice it without looking carefully.

The old man cleared his throat and said loudly: "Qi Xinbei, awaken the advanced (75%) holy healing physique." As soon as these words came out, the whole place was shocked, and the confused people let out shocking roars.

"Wow, senior. This is the highest level we have ever reached in Wangxiang Town."

"Holy healing physique, this is a force that can be on par with aristocratic families."

"Belle, you have changed. You seem to look better."

"Belle is my goddess now"

………

After a moment, Belle opened her eyes, feeling the changes in her body. Looking at the eyes of everyone watching, Belle was a little at a loss. Belle turned around, looked at the old man and said, "Grandpa, what kind of physique do I have?".

Originally on a big occasion. The old man does not allow his children and grandchildren to call him this, but looking at the granddaughter who can make the family strong again, it reminds people of the granddaughter in the past. The old man did not correct his face and speak as usual, but talked about her physique and rank. Gave it to Belle.

After hearing this, Belle was not excited, or she was too shocked to get excited. She remained sluggish for a long time. Belle said innocently: "Then I will be very powerful in the future, and I can make everyone in the family live a better life." .

The old man touched Bei'er's head and said with a smile: "Yes, I will rely on you Bei'er to manage our family from now on."

During the conversation, an elder came forward with a sturdy one-eyed young man and said: "Patriarch, I heard that the holy healing constitution has the basic ability to heal wounds. Do you want to treat this kid?"

The old man looked at the one-eyed man intently and said calmly: "Your name is Qi Shoulin. Your eyes were blinded by the fish-men when you were defending the family a few days ago. You also shed blood for the family. You can give it a try." ".

After listening to the old man talking so much in one breath, the man knelt down on one knee and said: "The patriarch cares about me so much, even if I am blind, it is worth it."

Seeing such a gratifying younger generation, the old man quickly helped him up and said with a smile: "The Qi family is so united, why not be strong?"

The man added: "I heard that the healing methods of the Holy Healing Tribe will damage your essence and blood. How could you be so virtuous as a forest guard?"

In Tianyun Continent, blood essence refers to a person's physical strength, physical condition, and the degree of damage he or she has endured. Essence and blood are different from flesh and blood. Injuries to flesh and blood are reflected externally, while injuries to essence and blood are reflected internally. Damage to flesh and blood requires the recovery of the body, while damage to essence and blood can be recovered by just resting, and the rest time depends on the degree of damage. In other words, blood essence is equivalent to the blood volume in the game. The character can be injured, but it will not be reflected on the body and will naturally recover automatically.

Looking at the honest man, the old man gave a brief introduction to Essence and Blood to everyone. The young man scratched his head. It seemed that he didn't understand much. The old man ignored him and turned his head to Xinbei aside. After listening to his grandfather's words, Xinbei nodded and said, "I am willing, but I have to How can we treat Brother Shou Lin's injuries?"

The old man nodded first, and then said softly: "Put your hand on the injured area and say healing in your heart."

Everyone at the elders' table and Qi Wei on the side were also surprised and hopeful. They marveled at why the patriarch knew so much, and they were looking forward to seeing what kind of performance Bei'er would perform.

After saying that, Belle straightened her clothes and went to treat the young man's injuries.
