The spies gasped.
So, all the gangsters are dead!
Even the third leader... died so miserably!
What methods did the Xia family use to achieve this?
At this time, when the spies thought about the silence last night, they couldn't help but feel that it was very strange, and they couldn't help but have goosebumps on their bodies, which was just creepy.
But being afraid, they still wanted to understand the matter as clearly as possible, so that they could go back and report it to their master.
Therefore, these spies had to stay here, endure the surprise and shock, and try their best to inquire.
Not long after, the Xia clan leader also appeared and ordered a group of Xia family's attendants to pile up all the corpses and drag them away. Judging from the Xia family's performance, they really didn't spend a lot of money to eliminate the bandits last night.
Later, the gangsters were dragged outside the city and burned. Many spies checked again and then reported back...
After Chief Xia gave his instructions, he went to the warehouse. When he came out, he was holding a storage bag in his hand and striding quickly towards the residence of Ye Shu and Yan Changlan.
·
Ye Shu looked at Clan Chief Xia and searched the storage bag with his spiritual consciousness.
In the storage bag, there are a thousand spirit coins alone. In addition, there are various kinds of weapon refining materials. The materials originally used to refine the Seven Killing Formation for the Xia family are also hidden in it. There are also some precious medicinal materials, which are very abundant.
Chief Xia said: "Master Ye has devoted all his efforts to save our Xia family. It's just a small gift, but it's disrespectful. Please accept it, Master Ye."
Ye Shu glanced at him: "It doesn't have to be like this."
Patriarch Xia advised: "Master Ye, please don't refuse. This is just an extraneous thing, and it cannot compare to what Master Ye has done for my Ye family." At this point, he deliberately said frankly, "If Master Ye doesn't accept it, then the seven The killing array...how can my Xia family use it with peace of mind?"
Ye Shu slightly pondered.
The Xia family seems to want to make good friends with him, so they are certainly grateful, but if they were completely grateful, they probably wouldn't come up with so many things.
It is true that the value of these things is not worth the seven-kill array, but the seven-kill array he gave is far from the ultimate. The Xia family can do this, which is considered to be very sincere.
Now it seems that the Xia family can be called bloody, and he is not unhappy about it.
Thinking of this, Ye Shu calmly accepted the storage bag: "In that case, it's hard to refuse such kindness, thank you very much."
After he accepted it, Chief Xia also breathed a sigh of relief, and his smile became more sincere: "Master Ye, regarding your identity..."
Ye Shu said: "Please also ask Chief Xia to keep his mouth shut within the clan."
Chief Xia nodded in agreement: "Master Ye, please rest assured that no one in our Xia family will mention the relationship between the Seven Killing Formation and Master Ye."
Ye Shu nodded slightly.
Afterwards, several people talked about the marriage between Xia Yuqing and Zhu Yao.
Chief Xia said to Yan Changlan: "Zhu Yao has a deep affection for his niece. Now that the Seven Killing Formation is threatening us, our Xia family can deal with the Luo family. If Zhu Yao is interested in his niece, he should come and propose marriage as soon as possible."
Yan Changlan was stunned for a moment, then understood: "Clan Chief Xia, don't worry, my senior brother is sincere. It was just that he was afraid of wronging Junior Sister Xia, so he didn't propose marriage. Now that Clan Chief Xia has agreed, he will definitely prepare a generous gift in advance. Come."
He was able to ensure this. When Zhu Yao was drunk, he expressed regret countless times for not settling down with Xia Yuqing earlier. Now Clan Chief Xia is relenting. If he knew about it, how could he dare to delay even half a minute?
Chief Xia nodded with a smile and said no more.
He was the eldest daughter of the girl, so he was able to bring this up because Zhu Yao was indeed sincere, and besides, he still had to be somewhat reserved.
After everything was settled, Chief Xia left.
Ye Shu put the things into the Hunyuan Pearl, and Yan Changlan smiled and said: "It's good now. The Luo family matter has been resolved, and the senior brother and junior sister Xia can get married as soon as possible. After that, I have to go out and hunt for more things." , prepare a generous gift.”
Hearing what Yan Changlan said, Ye Shu said, "If you encounter rare materials, bring back more."
Yan Changlan liked Ye Shu's unobtrusive words very much, and said cheerfully: "Don't worry, A Zhuo, I will bring more for you."
After that, Yan Changlan went to find Zhu Yao and informed him in private that Chief Xia had agreed to marry him.
Zhu Yao first showed a look of ecstasy, and then suddenly became stunned.
Yan Changlan was confused: "Senior Brother, is there still something difficult?"
Zhu Yao shook his head: "It's not that I'm embarrassed, it's just that the things I prepared before may not be enough."
Yan Changlan understood.
When preparing for a marriage, the person seeking to marry is the one she loves, so she is naturally uneasy.
He then said: "Elder brother, it's better to go back and inform your parents first. The matter of proposing marriage must be handled by close relatives."
Zhu Yao then said: "It doesn't matter. My family already knows that I like Junior Sister Xia. If it weren't for me..." He was a little stunned, "...I want to prepare the betrothal gift myself, and I want to further confirm Junior Sister's feelings, so It wouldn’t be like this now…”
Yan Changlan said with a smile: "Then it won't be too late. Although the elder brother is sincere, after all, the nights are long and there are many dreams. If the elder brother goes back to ask for help, prepare the betrothal gift first. If you get something good in the future, you can give it back to your family."
Zhu Yao heard this and no longer persisted: "Junior brother Yan is right, I was wrong before." He couldn't wait anymore, "As long as junior sister doesn't dislike her, I will be devoted to her in the future and will never betray her."
Yan Changlan smiled: "Senior Brother must tell Junior Sister Xia about this matter."
Zhu Yao's face suddenly turned red, knowing that he had been too excited before.
When Yan Changlan saw Zhu Yao like this, he couldn't help but think to himself: In his early years, he heard A Zhuo mention that after entering the path of spiritual practice, he would be in thorns every step of the way, fighting endlessly with heaven and man, and the human heart is sinister. But senior brother and junior sister Xia have such a sincere relationship, sharing life and death, which is really enviable.
On second thought, he suddenly thought of Ye Shu.
Then he felt a little relieved.
Although he is not an immortal couple like Zhu Yao and Xia Yuqing, he has made an appointment with Ye Shu to accompany him on the immortal road. Thinking about it carefully, he does not necessarily envy these two people - Ye Shu treats him well. , he has already died.
Yan Changlan's mood changed several times, but Zhu Yao didn't know that Zhu Yao's thoughts were on Xia Yuqing's marriage with the two of them. The two of them thought about their own things and did not interfere with each other.
After that, Zhu Yao said: "I will write a letter and send it to my family, asking them to prepare the betrothal gifts quickly and propose marriage for me."
Yan Changlan said: "Then I would like to congratulate Senior Brother and Junior Sister Xia in advance."
Zhu Yao smiled in surprise, his heart full of joy.
After the Xia family's affairs were over, Ye Shu and Yan Changlan left first.
Zhu Yao still wants to stay here to accompany Xia Yuqing. There are still some disputes between the Xia family and the Luo family, and he also has to negotiate with the big boss.
After leaving, Yan Changlan said to Ye Shu: "Ah Zhuo, everyone in the Xia family knows about your formation. It's probably extremely difficult to keep it secret..."
Ye Shu said: "They don't know my true identity, but they know that you and I are good friends. Even if there is trouble in the future, they will find you." At this point, he turned his head and looked at Yan Changlan, "Aren't you afraid? ?”
Yan Changlan breathed a sigh of relief: "It's okay to come to me, as long as I don't implicate you." Then he remembered Ye Shuzhi's question and said, "There's nothing to be afraid of. The name of Qixiao Sect can always protect me."
Ye Shu asked: "What if your sect also wants this formation?"
Yan Changlan smiled: "Ah Zhuo is testing me." He said sternly, "Although the Seven Killing Formation is good, I am afraid that its use can only confuse the monks at the first and second level of foundation building, and it will not be called a sect. The sect will do whatever it takes to get it. But if the sect really wants it..."
Ye Shu: "How?"
Yan Changlan said: "Now that A-Zhuo has taken it out, I already have a plan. Since Clan Chief Xia is willing to take out those things in exchange, then I will come and ask for more resources from the sect on behalf of A-Zhuo."
Ye Shu nodded with satisfaction: "You are more flexible now than before."
Yan Changlan was helpless: "As long as Ah Zhuo doesn't think I'm stupid."
And so it is.
Ye Shun could arrange the Seven Killing Formation for the Xia family, and he didn't mind arranging it for others. Besides, Yan Changlan had the reputation of the Qixiao Sect. If he was an ordinary family, he wouldn't dare to force him to do it. And many direct disciples of the Qixiao Sect had unexpected encounters. Countless, where can I see good things and just come to force them? With Yan Changlan blocking the front, Ye Shu was not in much danger. If his identity is accidentally revealed and he encounters someone with evil intentions outside, Ye Shu also has a set of arrays in his hand. After careful calculation, he may not encounter many dangers.
Furthermore, the monks are going backwards. Even if there is no incident with the Xia family, when Ye Shu is walking outside, he will inevitably be coveted by using the array. If he is worried about being coveted and hides it, he is putting the cart before the horse.
Now he plans to do his best not to endanger his life.
The two of them were talking and unknowingly returned to Jiutai City.
Ye Shu practiced in the courtyard and accumulated magic power. He improved every day and his life was extremely peaceful.
Yan Changlan goes out every two days and comes back every two days. Every time he comes back, he is full of blood. It is precisely because he has been grinding in the mountains for breakthroughs. He has hunted many monsters and beasts, and also found a lot of spiritual minerals and spiritual herbs. Bring it back to Ye Shu.
Now Yan Changlan has accumulated eight strands of mana, and Ye Shu has three strands of mana, which is no slower than Yan Changlan.
At the same time, Yan Changlan's physical body became stronger due to frequent soaking in Chaos Water, and his current strength improvement was far more than just an increase in mana.
A few days later, the two received the wedding invitation.
This wedding invitation was written by Zhu Yao and Xia Yuqing, inviting them to attend the wedding ceremony in fifteen days.
Yan Changlan couldn't help but laugh: "This senior brother is too eager."
Ye Shu turned over the invitation and said, "I think it's really my heart's desire to come."
Later, Yan Changlan returned to the clan and found out what happened.
It turned out that after Zhu Yao's last letter came back, the Zhu family immediately brought a large amount of betrothal gifts and went to the Xia family to propose marriage. After the Xia clan chief reservedly declined it once or twice, he agreed and the date of marriage was successfully set.
During this period, Zhu Yao also reported his marriage to the peak master of Baixiao Peak. The peak master did not comment on the marriage of his direct disciples. After Zhu Yao mentioned it, he nodded in agreement.
Zhu Yao was really worried that things had changed, so he quickly chose this recent auspicious day to get married to Xia Yuqing as soon as possible.
Although Xia Yuqing was shy, she was willing to do so.
Yan Changlan also met Ruan Hongyi and Ge Yuanfeng, and listened to their complaints, saying that Senior Brother Zhu was dishonest in his treatment of them and had not asked them for help when he encountered difficulties before. So Yan Changlan comforted the two of them again, and then they changed the subject and began to discuss what gifts to give.
However, I never saw Lu Zheng during this period. I only knew that he was practicing in seclusion and only went to the peak master for guidance every few months...
After returning to the hospital, Yan Changlan was exhausted both physically and mentally.
It was rare for Ye Shu to see him like that, so he raised his eyebrows and looked at him.
Yan Changlan smiled bitterly: "Junior Sister Ruan and Junior Brother Ge are really annoying..."
Half a month later, Zhu Yao and Xia Yuqing got married.
Yan Changlan brought a hundred skins of different monster beasts that he hunted as gifts. Ruan Hongyi, Ge Yuanfeng and others also gave gifts to each other. Ye Shu refined a pair of concentric jade pendants. Once the blood essence of the two people is dripped, they can make The two of them know each other's safety within a thousand feet, which can be regarded as a good magic weapon. Lu Zheng didn't arrive, but he asked Yan Changlan to bring him a gift. When Yan Changlan met Lu Zheng, he didn't notice that he was any different from before, and felt slightly relieved.
Zhu Yao and Xia Yuqing were very happy. After bowing, they were sent to the bridal chamber.
From then on, the two became a couple, sharing good times and bad together.
·
Two years later.
Yan Changlan sat cross-legged and let out a long breath.
That breath was like a white sword light, hitting the opposite side directly, punching through several giant trees before disappearing.
Beside him, the young man with a cold temperament stood quietly and said, "Congratulations, you have reached the sixth level of Qi refining."
Yan Changlan stood up and smiled at the young man: "Ah Zhuo."
Yan Changlan is now seventeen years old, more than nine feet long, extremely tall, with smooth muscles, a strong body, wide shoulders and narrow waist, and his hands and feet seem to have explosive power.
In the past two years, whenever his physical body was tempered to the limit of the corresponding realm, Ye Shu would also give him half a drop of Chaos Water to swallow every day, asking him to quickly accumulate mana. He also used a large amount of middle-grade dew condensation pills on weekdays. Supply, if it were not for the sake of solid foundation, Yan Changlan would go out hunting from time to time, and his current state would be even higher - at least he would not have just broken through the sixth level of Qi Refining, but would have to accumulate a lot of mana in this state.
Ye Shu's spiritual roots are inferior to those of Yan Changlan, but the resources are not in short supply. Therefore, although he has not yet broken through to the sixth level of Qi refining, at the fifth level of Qi refining, he has accumulated 73 new With seven strands of mana left, you can start moving towards the sixth level of Qi Refining.
Cultivation so fast is unique in the entire Jiutai City.
It was also because of this that Ye Shu taught Yan Changlan a technique for condensing Qi.
After Yan Changlan stood up, the aura on his body suddenly weakened.
From the sixth level of Qi refining, he went down to the fifth level of Qi refining... and then he stopped at the fourth level of Qi refining.
Yan Changlan had already started practicing this technique when he broke through to the fifth level of Qi Refining. Now, what he shows to the outside world is still the fourth level of Qi Refining, but whenever he competes with others, he shows off his accumulated magic power. It's just increasing slowly.
For the people of the sect, Yan Changlan's progress has been very fast, but it is too difficult to break through after the fourth level of Qi refining. In just two years, he should not be able to continue to break through.
Ye Shu is also very satisfied with Yan Changlan's practice so quickly, and Yan Changlan's understanding of swordsmanship has also improved a lot. In the past two years, he has successively acquired many swordsmanships in the sect, and he has mastered them all. There is only one "Wind and Thunder Sword Technique" that is powerful in attack and killing. However, although the first two moves of "Wind and Thunder Sword Technique" are not very useful to monks at the fifth and sixth levels of Qi Refining, the third move is still very powerful if all the wind and thunder are integrated. of.
However, Ye Shu has a secret. Although Yan Changlan doesn't know what the secret is, he also realizes that it is not trivial. Therefore, after the two discussed it, it was okay to practice on weekdays. If they wanted to practice swordsmanship or make breakthroughs, they would I found a secluded barren mountain outside the city to practice.
Because of this, after moving several times, the two found such a cave.
On weekdays, whenever they have to go out, they stay temporarily in the cave, and they also practice on the huge stone ground in front of the cave.
Yan Changlan put away the Qi Condensing Technique again, pulled out two long swords and danced them wildly.
He only stopped after practicing all the sword techniques to his heart's content and becoming familiar with the power of his sword techniques after breaking through.
Ye Shu, a young man with a cold temperament, looked at him and said, "Come in, it's time for you to take a medicinal bath."
Yan Changlan suddenly sheathed his sword and turned his head.
Ye Shu said: "It is most suitable after a breakthrough. Once you enter it, you can endure it as long as you can."
Yan Changlan solemnly promised.
Afterwards, Yan Changlan walked into the cave at the back and saw the steaming big bathtub, which warmed his heart.
He knew very well that the concoction in the bathtub was suitable and beneficial because Ye Shu had been standing by to watch him break through, so he could determine it so accurately, and after making the determination, he quickly prepared the concoction, which was very troublesome.
Yan Changlan took off his clothes and got into the bucket.
The severe pain is like acupuncture, invading the body from every pore in all directions, strengthening every muscle and meridians, but also causing extremely terrifying pain. However, he endured it all his life - he is no longer the ignorant person who embarked on the road of cultivation for revenge. Naturally, he understands very well that in order to maintain such a fast cultivation, he has spent a lot of money. There are countless resources, and almost every time the two of them have some surplus, they spend it on cultivation. The higher the level, the more resources are consumed. This bucket of medicinal juice is extremely rare, and it must not be used. waste.
Yan Changlan knew better that although he had reached this stage due to his own hard work and talent, at least half of the credit must go to Ye Shu. If it weren't for his help, he would still be able to embark on the path of cultivation. It will definitely be extremely difficult, and it is impossible to achieve such a state now.
Ye Shu treated him like this, and he would never let Ye Shu down.
Because of this, Yan Changlan endured the severe pain for a full hour and absorbed all the medicine in the barrel.
Ye Shu saw it from the side and was slightly surprised, then nodded immediately.
This concoction is the Ye family's secret recipe for body building. Although the medicinal materials are not hard to come by, after adding the Chaos Water, all the medicinal properties will be immediately activated and purified. It is several times stronger than the potion prepared directly from the medicinal materials. Ordinary people can enter Among them, not to mention an hour, even a cup of tea or a stick of incense is unbearable. Not to mention, absorbing all the medicinal power... However, Yan Changlan did it.
None of the medicinal properties were wasted, and it was naturally very good for Yan Changlan's health.
After Yan Changlan absorbed the power of the medicine, his aura became a few points stronger. After feeling his current strength, he was very satisfied: "Now even if I face a monk at the eighth or ninth level of Qi refining, I may not be able to give it a try." .”
Ye Shu said: "You still need to work harder. It's normal for swordsmen to fight across different levels. You haven't established a foundation yet. You must always be the strongest at the same level, and be able to survive several levels before you have a chance."
Yan Changlan knew that Ye Shu was thinking about himself, so he responded: "Don't worry, A Zhuo, I will do my best."
The two of them had practiced as much as they should, and both of them had converged their auras to the fourth level of Qi Refining, and then they packed up and returned to the city.
Yan Changlan walked all the way and said to Ye Shu: "I was so eager to make a breakthrough earlier that I forgot to tell you that Senior Sister Xia and Senior Brother went out for training and came back pregnant. Now I am afraid that she will give birth soon."
After getting married, Zhu Yao and Xia Yuqing were inseparable for more than a year. Later, they found that they were addicted to love and forgot to practice, so they calmed down and went out to practice together.
Just a few days ago, the two of them came back unexpectedly. Xia Yuqing actually straightened out her belly and her face became a little more plump.
Zhu Yao was overjoyed and told many of his classmates that Xia Yuqing was actually pregnant before they left, but they didn't realize it. After going out to practice for a while, Xia Yuqing didn't know because of her inexperience, until one time she felt fetal movement. I knew I had been pregnant for several months. Zhu Yao was nervous for a while and accompanied Xia Yuqing to recuperate there for a long time. He only returned after he recovered.
Many fellow disciples congratulated each other when they heard about it.
After Yan Changlan found out, he was naturally happy, and now he told Ye Shu about it.
Ye Shu said: "That is really a happy event."
Yan Changlan smiled and said: "Exactly. Senior brother is so happy that he is so excited now that he doesn't know what to do."
Ye Shu raised his eyebrows: "It will happen once in a while. Then you and I will prepare some good things that are beneficial to the fetus and send them as gifts."
Yan Changlan said: "Of course this is good."
After returning, the servants in the yard had long been accustomed to the two of them going out from time to time. It was just their custom to welcome the two of them in and then go about their business.
In just two years, even though Ye Shu's family was good and everyone's level had not improved, they had made considerable progress.
