"Something may have happened to the Su family." Yan Ting looked deeply at the courtyard where the withered grass grew, "I hope this is just my imagination."
After hearing this, Qiong Yi let out a long sigh and thought to herself, aren't we here to plead for Su Ye to be released from confinement? Why did we end up being grounded as well?
Sheng Xuanyuan pondered for a moment: "We are injured, let's follow their wishes for a while and then go find someone when the time is up." When he said this, he already had someone to turn to for help.

Healing is also part of spiritual practice.
In that thrilling bloody battle, Qiong Yi unexpectedly "broke through" and was promoted, becoming the youngest senior monk Yan Tingshen had ever seen, at only sixteen years old. Along with the externalization of her true energy, she seemed to have gained access to other abilities, which was the energy flow that saved Sheng Xuanyuan several times.
"I don't know what this is, but I realized it somewhere." Qiong Yi raised one hand slightly, and a ball of invisible energy condensed on her palm: "At first, I thought this was the release of true energy, but later I realized I realized that it does not belong to the breath in my body, nor does it waste my true energy."
Sheng Xuanyuan and Yan Tingshen looked at it with their naked eyes and couldn't see anything. But when they calmed down and felt it, they could notice that there was something in her palm, like the wind that was gathered in one place and kept expanding. Sheng Xuanyuan raised his hand to touch the ball of wind, but it was bounced away at great speed. His fingertips even stung a little. He stopped and said, "This is your 'gift' skill."
Qiong was also a little confused: "'Fu' skills? What is it? I have never heard of it."
"When a monk breaks through from a low level to a high level, those who are destined will realize abilities that are very similar to themselves, whether they are spells, sword skills, or other talents." Sheng Xuanyuan told him what Qin Hanchuan told him at home. Those words were explained in detail to the two people in front of him: "There are only a few high-level monks, and those who can obtain the skills are only one in a thousand. Therefore, very few people know about it."
Qiong also sighed: "Wow, then I am so powerful?"
Yan Ting laughed when he heard the words: "It's very impressive. I feel ashamed to stand with you two."
"Brother Yan, don't say that. You are also very powerful and very smart." Qiong Yi waved his hand and asked again: "Sheng Jing knows so much in detail, does he also have this kind of talent?"
Sheng Xuanyuan nodded: "Yes."
"What's it like? Is it similar to me?"
"No, it's quite different." Sheng Xuanyuan moved his fingers, and the Chengying Sword not far away flew into his hand. "My skills and sword energy will undergo some changes, that's all." He said After that, he first slashed out a few blue sword lights, which was his sword energy that Qiong was familiar with. Then he turned the edge of the sword, and the breath also changed. The sword body gushed out with a strong ink color, and the sword energy turned into ink green, with great power. subsequently increased.
Qiong Yi thought after reading it: "It feels much more practical than mine. My energy seems to be unable to cause any harm to the opponent."
Yan Ting lowered his eyes: "Perhaps it would be better to use it as a self-defense method?"
"Used to block?"
"Yes. Judging from my observation in the martial arts competition, your guarding ability is not very strong." Yan Tingshen raised the Zhaolin Sword with his left hand, "Would you like to test how much sword energy your wind can withstand?"
Qiong Yi did not refute Yan Tingshen's remarks about her weaknesses at all. Her defensive ability was very weak. Because of her fast body shape, she could directly dodge attacks in most situations, so there was no need to practice blocking. If the newly acquired skills help one defend, it can also be considered as making up for the shortcomings.
"Okay." Qiong Yi raised his hand to Ningfeng: "Let's try it."
Yan Ting patted Sheng Xuanyuan deeply on the shoulder: "Go ahead. My hand hurts."
Sheng Xuanyuan did not refuse, took a few steps back, and asked Xiang Qiongyi: "Will your air flow be connected to you like the spiritual blade of Qinggui Sect? If you cut it off, will you suffer backlash?"
"Intuition tells me, no." Qiong Yi moved his fingertips slightly, and the air flow moved accordingly: "Because this ball of energy is not the same as the one before, they dispersed as soon as I stopped my hand."
"good."
Then, Sheng Xuanyuan used all the moves in Jichen's sword technique, but failed to cut away the air mass in front of Qiong Yi, including the "Yixiantian" that once cut through the aura of Yue Huan's sword domain.
There was a lot of sweat on his forehead and his body was a little weak. Qiong Yi advised: "Sheng Jing, you are still seriously injured, so there is no need to show off."
Sheng Xuanyuan put away his sword and gave up with some helplessness: "Well, I'm afraid even if I recover from the injury, my full strength may not be able to split this air ball." After finishing speaking, he added: "It is very strong. "
After this attempt, not only did she get the approval of Sheng Xuanyuan and Yan Tingshen, Qiong Yi also roughly understood how to use this gift of hers, thinking: Since Sheng Jing can't cut it open, let's consider it indestructible! I'm going to give this ability a name, "Wind Condensation Technique".

The three of them lived peacefully in the deserted courtyard that was guarded in shifts. In addition to healing their wounds, they practiced practice every day.
When the disciples guarding the gate saw how hard they were working, they were so shocked that they couldn't even utter a word. Sometimes the yard was quiet, with only the strong smell of medicine; sometimes the three of them would practice swordplay and chat in the open space; and sometimes, the handsome young man would hold the girl's hand and sit on a low stool to bask in the sun. Her smile is very friendly, and she also says some words that she can't hear clearly, and her voice is very pleasant.
At this time, the gatekeeper disciple would always be envious, turn away, and choose to stay out of sight.
Not a few days later, something happened that shocked both Qiong Yi and Sheng Xuanyuan: Yan Tingshen also broke through and was promoted.
His promotion was not achieved by practicing skills, nor by overflowing with true energy, nor by experiencing it in battle, but by figuring it out on his own.
He only relied on two words of advice from Sheng Xuanyuan, and the rest relied entirely on thinking and understanding, to complete the most unstable leap. It was true that Qiong Yi felt sincerely that he was really smart.

January time flies by in a blur, the spring color is getting thicker, the trees in the courtyard are all green, and the red apricots on the branches are in bud, leaning out of the wall, climbing on the tile edge, pink and tender, pleasing to the eye. The Su family used the best elixirs and medicinal materials for them. Their injuries were almost healed, and it was time to leave.
That night.
Sheng Xuanyuan asked Qiong and Yi to practice as usual, and he climbed over the wall alone to find Su Ye's eldest sister, Su Liming. If Su Liming didn't mention anything about the clan's affairs and could do nothing to help Su Ye's confinement, then he really didn't know who to ask for mercy.
Sheng Xuanyuan calmed down and took a look outside the courtyard. He remembered that Su Ye had told him before that Su Liming and himself were going to Tingyu Hall in the south of the mansion, so he quickly walked there. He met many inner sect disciples along the way, but he cleverly avoided them all. He listened to their chats on the way, and most of them talked about interesting things. Only one of them mentioned the branch of the clan, saying that a new deputy sect leader might be elected.
The deputy head of the Su family is named Su Yi, who is Su Changming's father. Sheng Xuanyuan was crouching in the corner, thinking to himself: Is the newly elected deputy sect leader a side branch abandoning his chariot to protect the commander? Or is it that the Su family has stabilized and is reshuffling the cards?
He couldn't see the situation clearly for the moment, but he only felt that both were possible. When he thought of Su Changming, he couldn't help but snorted: He is an extremely difficult guy, and I don't know what is happening to him now.
Hearing the voices of people on the road fading away, Sheng Xuanyuan continued to run towards Tingyutang with gentle steps. There was a group of lofts in front of him. He jumped up onto a tree and used the tree crown to cover his body. Seeing that there was no one around, he jumped up to the roof and looked around.
Vaguely hearing Su Liming's voice, Sheng Xuanyuan condensed his energy and followed the sound while walking on the tiles. Suddenly he heard a sentence: "Xiao'er, I didn't expect you had a guest tonight." He was suddenly shocked. He had clearly already arrived. He hid his breath and didn't make any sound, but he was still discovered!
Jumping down from the house, I saw a tea table in the corridor. Two people were sitting in front of the table. Sheng Xuan bowed with resentment and called out: "Miss Su, I'm sorry."
He turned his attention to the middle-aged man in front of the stage. The man was wearing a snow-white gown with a lifelike flying crane embroidered with red gold silk on his collar. His eyes were as plain as water, but his face looked slightly haggard, with a bit of a bitter medicinal smell. Sheng Xuanyuan was stunned for a moment. He had seen him before, "You...are Sect Leader Su?"
The moment Su Zong leader Su Min saw Sheng Xuanyuan, his hand that was originally on the table was put under the table silently, and the fists in his long sleeves were clenched so tightly that they turned white.
Like, so much like him back then.
"You belong to Sheng Shangpei..." He suppressed the surging emotions in his heart and said.
Su Liming was startled: "Little complaint? Why are you here?"
Seeing Su Liming's complete ignorance, which also confirmed Sheng Xuanyuan's previous suspicion, he said directly: "Sect Master Su, my friend and I have been detained in the Su family's mansion for more than a month. We are imprisoned in another place. There are also two disciples from the Qinggui Sect.”
Su Min fell silent after listening to his story. He naturally knew that there were two Qinggui Sect disciples being held in prison, but apart from this, he had not received any news about the three Sheng Xuanyuan who were under house arrest.
"My friends and I were raped together with the Qinggui disciple. The ancestor of the Su family asked the doctor to heal our injuries. We are very grateful. Only when we wanted to express our gratitude to the ancestor again did we realize that we had been ordered to stay in the mansion. Sun and Moon Like a shuttle, it has been nearly forty days now."
"You come to Yize, what do you mean?"
Sheng Xuanyuan said calmly: "Looking for friends."
Seeing that Su Min didn't speak anymore, he continued: "Su Ye is a close friend of mine. He promised a few years ago that he would attend Qing Feng's lectures this year, but he didn't want to see anyone for a long time, so he was in confinement at home. I didn't know he committed the crime What's wrong? I just hope you can be accommodating."
There was silence for a long time.
Su Min rubbed his eyebrows: "Just for this matter?"
"yes."
"Xiao'er, arrange a ride tomorrow and send them back to Yize Qingfeng." Su Min stood up and said to Su Liming. Seeing that he was leaving, Su Liming hurriedly called, "Dad!"
Su Min looked at her, "Dad, I... I have to contradict you, but I feel that what Yi Yang said that day is actually quite reasonable. He has a free-spirited nature, and you... really can't bear to see him locked up in the room all day long. Are you depressed?" Su Liming's eyes were slightly red and she bit her red lips.
"You asked for him to be exempted from the cane punishment, and now you are asking for him to be exempted from the ban?" Su Min's tone became more serious, "If many disciples see him speak out and blatantly desecrate family training and ethics without being punished, how can he convince the public? !" He was so angry that he touched his chest and coughed several times. Su Mingxiao hurriedly stepped forward to help him and patted his back to calm him down.
Sheng Xuanyuan stood there and didn't know what to do. When he saw Su Min was about to leave, he took a step forward and said, "Sect Master Su..." Su Min didn't look at him, "No need to say more. I will remove your disciples who are under house arrest now and leave Su as soon as possible." Family home.”
"Sect Master Su!" Sheng Xuanyuan shouted, but Su Min did not look back.
Su Liming looked at him and shook his head: "It's useless to complain."
"Miss Su." Sheng Xuanyuan asked in a deep voice, "What on earth did Su Ye commit?"
"He..." Su Liming lowered his head, "Young and energetic, eager for success. He doesn't know how complicated the power entanglement is, but he still can't tolerate a little sand in his eyes."
