Chapter 1217 Cang Yuan Sect, Nie Ying
Fatty Qian was quite efficient in trying to please Ye Chunyang by agreeing to the Wan Ding Hui.
Less than half an hour later, someone brought a dozen seeds of top-grade spiritual herbs to Ye Chunyang.
After a simple inspection, Ye Chunyang was secretly satisfied.
These top-grade spiritual herbs are not difficult to find, but those that are fifty years old or even more than a hundred years old are hard to find. They can basically only be found in spiritual medicine families or large sects.
Ye Chunyang's cultivation is inseparable from the ripening of spiritual herbs. These spiritual herb seeds may be useless to others, but they are the most precious things to him.
After being placed in the jade gourd for cultivation, it will take one or two months to grow to a hundred-year-old ingredient.
"Master, the spiritual herb seeds have been handed over to you now. You see... There are less than ten days left before the Jiu Ding Hui. Our Lindu City is far away from Yunlan City, so I'm afraid we need to leave earlier."
This person didn't want the finished spiritual herbs, but wanted their seeds, which puzzled Fatty Qian.
However, he couldn't wait for the Wan Ding Hui.
"I will come to Yunbao Tower to find you in three days." Ye Chunyang nodded.
After saying goodbye to Cheng Ye, he walked out of Lingmiao Pavilion.
Fatty Qian was overjoyed and hurried to see him off.
On the way back to the Nie family, Ye Chunyang felt a gaze staring at him. After a quick scan, he found that it was the old man surnamed Wu next to Madam Zheng.
He smiled slightly and didn't care.
...
In a snowy place outside Lindu City, several figures were flying on swords, and they slowed down until they approached a dense forest and slowly stopped.
In the forest, a young man in white was grabbing a freshly roasted spiritual turkey and eating it with relish.
"Greetings to the Grandmaster!"
The four blood-stained men bowed in unison.
"How is the investigation going?"
"Grandmaster Bai" asked vaguely while gnawing on the roasted chicken without even looking at the four people.
"We have found out! This person is called Ye Yun. He is a son of a small family who married into the Nie family. However, he has mediocre talent and only has the third level of Qi Refining." The tall man said respectfully.
"Ye Yun?"
"Master Bai" ignored the tall man's words and murmured to himself with some doubt.
In the ancient tomb, he tried his best but couldn't take this person down. He could kill a first-level intermediate monster with one punch. How could he be a low-level cultivator of the third level of Qi Refining?
He asked again: "What else did you find out?"
The four looked at each other, and a female voice came from them, "Reporting to the master, in addition to this person's identity, we also found a strange thing."
The speaker was the only woman among the four, Xiao Rou.
"Oh? What strange thing? Tell me!"
"Master Bai" became interested, threw away the chicken leg in his hand, and stared at the woman with shining eyes.
Xiaorou looked at the tall man, then at the other two blood-stained men, hesitated, and said: "We have been investigating clues in Lindu City these days and found that Senior Brother Zhou Yuntian died at the hands of this man."
When Xiaorou said this, she felt that it was a fantasy.
The tall man and others could not hide their surprise.
Zhou Yuntian is a powerful man in the Dao Foundation Realm. If a kid in the third level of Qi Refining could kill him, it is simply unreasonable.
"Master Bai" was also surprised when he heard this.
But soon he shook the white paper fan in his hand with the "Immortal Style and Taoist Bones" and looked thoughtful.
"Master, according to the information we have found, Zhou Yuntian has a brother in Lindu City, named Zhou Quan, who once accepted the task of assassinating the son of the Ye family, and the person who hired him was Madam Zheng of the Qi family and the Nie family."
"However, Zhou Quan failed to assassinate and was killed instead. After Zhou Yuntian knew this, he went to seek revenge on Ye Yun, but Zhou Yuntian also died in the hands of this person."
Seeing the hesitant look of "Master Bai", the tall man hurriedly told the clues he knew in detail.
"Kill two people in a row?"
"Interesting."
"Interesting..."
"Master Bai" nodded repeatedly, with a smile on his lips.
The four trembled when they saw this.
The tall man and Xiao Rou looked at each other and saw the fear in each other's eyes.
When their master was angry, he smiled, and when he was happy, he was sad. His personality was like the clouds in the sky, uncertain. The current chuckle was the most terrifying.
They couldn't imagine how earth-shaking the scene would be once the master got angry.
"Grandmaster, that kid can't possibly kill Zhou Yuntian with his third-level Qi Refining cultivation. He must be guarded by experts. Why don't we go to Lindu City to investigate? If there is a chance, we can just kill that kid directly."
"No! I'll go myself!"
"Grandmaster Bai" smiled even brighter.
Seeing this, the four people were even more terrified.
Their grandmaster never killed chickens by himself, but now he was going to find that kid. It seems that the grandmaster was furious.
With the grandmaster's temper, that kid would probably be crushed to ashes.
"Let's go! Take me to Lindu City!"
"Grandmaster Bai" ordered with a smile.
The four people were terrified, but how dare they disobey the grandmaster's order? They immediately drove the flying sword and carried it to the direction of Lindu City.
...
"Crack."
In a hidden secret room in the Qi family, Qi Mubai crushed a teacup to pieces, his face full of gloom.
"Second Master, that Madam Zheng just now..."
A confidant stood beside him respectfully, looked up at him, and hesitated to speak.
"Hmph! She is just a bitch who has become a phoenix after flying up the tree. When a Japanese master takes charge of the Qi family, sooner or later she will beg for mercy in front of me!"
Qi Mubai's face was grim.
"But her threats just now, I'm afraid that if you can't win the heart of Miss Nie before Nie Changfeng comes out of retreat, she will turn to the eldest son." The confidant whispered.
Qi Mubai's fists turned white, and his knuckles "cracked".
He took a deep breath to calm himself down, and said slowly: "I'm not worried about my eldest brother, but she just said that the man has now returned to the Nie family. This person is a strong enemy."
"Are you talking about Nie Ying?"
"That's the person."
Qi Mubai nodded gloomily.
After a long silence, he paced in the room.
"Nie Ying, like my eldest brother, is the only one in the Nie family who can enter the Cang Yuan Sect to practice."
"The Cang Yuan Sect is the largest sect in Yinyue Country. Those who can be accepted as disciples are all young talents from various families. Although Nie Ying is only the adopted son of Nie Changfeng and not a descendant of the Nie family, his talent is far superior to others and he is a legendary figure in the Nie family."
"Three years ago, he broke through the eighth level of Qi Refining at the age of sixteen and was selected as a registered disciple of the Cang Yuan Sect. Now that he has returned, his cultivation has reached the tenth level of Qi Refining. Moreover, this person has always had some thoughts about Nie Xin. Now that he has returned from the Cang Yuan Sect, he may become my rival."
Qi Mubai said slowly.
In the past, he did not think that anyone of the same level was qualified to compete with him, but the appearance of Nie Ying now made him feel a little solemn.
"Nie Ying is indeed extraordinary."
"But as far as I know, Cang Yuan Sect recruits disciples from major families every three years. As long as they reach the eighth level of Qi Refining before the age of sixteen, they can enter to practice. Nie Ying is a little older after all, and has practiced for a few more years than you. But you didn't meet the requirements back then, but now you are old enough. How can you be inferior to Nie Ying?"
The confidant also frowned, but did not forget to flatter him.
Qi Mubai looked at this confidant with a satisfied smile on his face.
Seeing this, the confidant knew that he was not wrong, and hurriedly said: "Young Master, since Nie Ying has returned to the Nie family now, how should we deal with it next?"
"Wait."
Qi Mubai said a word lightly, saying: "It is better to be still than to move. Now there is a useless Ye Yun, and Nie Ying has come. How can we miss such a big show?"
"Your meaning is to borrow Nie Ying's hand..." The confidant's eyes lit up.
"Hehe..."
Qi Mubai shook his head and chuckled.
"With Nie Ying's feelings towards Nie Xin, how could he tolerate the existence of that waste. But there are hidden masters around the surname Ye. If Nie Ying takes action, I wonder who will win or lose?"
"When two tigers fight, one will be injured! Young master, this move is brilliant!"
The confidant laughed and couldn't help but praise.
Qi Mubai raised the corner of his mouth slightly, with disdain in his eyes.
Two tigers fighting?
In his eyes, Nie Ying might be worth a little evaluation, but the surname Ye is not even qualified to enter his eyes.
...
At this time, the Nie family was very lively.
Many young men and women gathered together, all of them were in high spirits, talking about something with each other.
Among them stood a young man in green clothes, who looked about eighteen or nineteen years old and handsome.
He carried a black sword behind him. The sword body was only two feet long, which was shorter than ordinary swords, but more than ten inches wide, almost occupying his entire back, but he stood straight, without any sense of weight from the giant sword.
The cultivation of this young man also made the younger generations of the Nie family look up to him. He has already reached the tenth level of Qi Refining and is only one step away from the Dao Foundation.
Standing among the crowd, he seemed to stand out from the crowd, with a transcendent temperament.
"This is Brother Nie Ying, a legendary figure of our Nie family."
"When he was selected into the Cang Yuan Sect three years ago, he was still at the eighth level of Qi Refining. Now he has reached the tenth level. His talent is amazing."
"The Cang Yuan Sect is the largest sect of immortal cultivation in our Yinyue Country. It is not easy to enter it to cultivate immortality. I think it will not be long before Brother Nie Ying can cultivate the Dao Foundation?"
"..."
The young men and women of the Nie family talked about it, looking at the blue-clothed boy with amazement.
It is said that the Dao Foundation is the threshold of immortal cultivation. Stepping into the Dao Foundation can cultivate spiritual power and supernatural powers. Having a long life of two hundred years is the first step to immortality.
How can the younger generations of the Nie family not be extremely envious and in awe of it.
Listening to the discussions of his peers around him, the young man remained unmoved, but a hint of pride could not be concealed in his eyes.
He did not answer anyone, but stood quietly in the hall, as if waiting for someone.
After about half an hour, a beautiful figure finally appeared at the door. Seeing the graceful figure and attractive appearance, the young man's always stern face showed a hint of smile.
The person who walked in was Nie Xin.
