Chapter 1630 Returning to the Nie Family
Lindu City is located in the north. In the cold winter, the world is covered with silver.
According to Nie Qingshan, the mine is only about 300 miles away from Lindu City. With the speed of Ye Chunyang and Nie Xin, they can arrive soon. However, there is also a Nie family team on this trip. It is impossible for them to fly like them. The speed of travel is naturally much slower.
After walking for a whole day, the appearance of a city appeared in sight.
Lindu City does not look large. After all, this is a mortal city, not a cultivation city in the world of immortal cultivation, gathering various forces.
In addition to the four major immortal cultivation families and Cheng Ye's Lingmiao Pavilion, the rest are just some small scattered cultivation sects.
"You... come back to the Nie family with me?"
After landing outside the city, Nie Xin looked at Ye Chunyang and whispered.
Ye Chunyang nodded and did not refuse.
In fact, he did not have much feeling for the Nie family. He only went there with Ye Yun to repay a favor and collect some information about the demon god world.
Now that he had just come out of the Black Sea, he also needed to recuperate.
Seeing him go to the Nie family mansion with Nie Xin, the unaware Nie family members did not think anything, but Nie Qingshan had a complicated expression.
Back then, this "Ye Yun" had a great reputation in the Lingxian Mansion of Yunlan City, and even Master Cheng Ye was impressed by him. Although Nie Changfeng and his daughter did not mention a word about this matter, some people still heard about it.
Knowing that this person had such great ability, those who remembered that they had targeted and ridiculed him in every way, their faces immediately turned into fear.
…
Lindu City was the same as before, with peddlers and soldiers on the street.
However, when pedestrians saw the Nie family's team, they all avoided them, and the patrolling soldiers did not check them.
The soldiers obeyed the imperial court, but the foundation of the Xiuxian clan also made them keep awe.
Of course, the Xiuxian clan does not participate in secular government affairs and never interferes in official affairs. Instead, it helps ordinary people to suppress demons and eliminate monsters, so the two sides have been at peace for many years.
However, soon many people on the street focused their attention on Nie Xin, and they all showed surprise.
"Isn't this the eldest daughter of the Nie family? It is said that she has not returned to Lindu City since she was selected into the Cangyuan Sect more than ten years ago. Why is she back now?"
"Speaking of the Cangyuan Sect recruiting disciples, she has not appeared in recent years. I don't know what's going on?"
"It's really strange. It is said that something happened in the Cangyuan Sect... and the current Nie family... This eldest daughter of the Nie family came back at this time, I'm afraid..."
As the group entered the city, someone soon recognized Nie Xin.
Back then, the Nie family's daughter was almost known to everyone in Lindu City. After seeing her, everyone was surprised at first, and then some people's expressions flickered.
Finally, a man who was discussing was about to say something, but was suddenly covered by someone's mouth, stopping him from continuing to speak.
Nie Xin's cultivation has greatly improved, and she can hear every word of the conversations of the people on the street.
Hearing the last words of the man, she frowned slightly, and a sense of strangeness rose in her heart, but she did not pause for a moment and continued to walk towards the Nie family mansion.
"I still remember that my father personally sent me and Chen Xue to Cang Yuan Sect from Lindu City. Now I haven't seen him for more than ten years, and I don't know how he is doing."
Standing outside the familiar house, Nie Xin's heart was unsettled.
She was young when she left home, and now she has grown up when she returned.
When she joined Cang Yuan Sect, she had not yet completed her foundation. At that time, she was obsessed with the marriage certificate with "Ye Yun", and firmly believed that as long as she worked hard to practice, she would be able to stand in front of the latter one day and personally cancel the engagement.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but look at the young man beside her, and a trace of confusion flashed through her heart.
However, Nie Xin did not hesitate for too long outside the mansion. She suppressed her thoughts and walked in.
As soon as she entered the courtyard, a surprised voice came from the front: "Miss? You're back!"
A woman in her twenties appeared in front of her. She was not very skilled, only at the minor stage of Dao Foundation Realm, but she looked very pretty, giving people the feeling of a girl next door.
"Qing Luo."
When Nie Xin saw the woman in front of her, she also smiled.
"Miss, it's really you!"
This woman was the maidservant who had been with her since she was a child. She was called to serve her, but they were actually like sisters. Since Nie Xin joined the Cang Yuan Sect, they had been separated for more than ten years. Seeing Nie Xin return at this time, she was naturally surprised.
"I... I will report to the clan leader right now. He will be very happy to know that you are back!" Qing Luo said excitedly.
"Yes." Nie Xin nodded with a smile.
At this moment, she let go of her tense heart for many years and became the carefree young lady of the Nie family again.
"No need to report, I will come to pick up my daughter in person."
A hearty laugh sounded in the courtyard, and the figure of a middle-aged man appeared.
His clothes were not very luxurious, and his hair was gray, but he was upright, like a sword in a sheath. Although his edge was hidden, he could not hide his arrogance.
"Father!"
Looking at this middle-aged man who was only in his forties or fifties but looked a bit old, Nie Xin felt bitter.
After leaving home for many years, she saw the father who had protected her when she grew up. She suddenly realized that no matter how strong she was, she was just a weak woman.
"A few years ago, I sent people to the Cangyuan Sect to inquire about you. I didn't expect that you had already left the sect and disappeared. I thought you had..." Nie Changfeng's eyes were also a little moist. At the end of his words, he only sighed: "It's good to come back, it's good to come back..."
"My daughter is unfilial. I failed to report the news to the clan in time, which made my father worried." Facing her father, Nie Xin felt guilty.
"It doesn't matter. As long as I can see that you are safe, I will be relieved." Nie Changfeng smiled.
Since Nie Xin's whereabouts were unknown, Nie Changfeng had difficulty sleeping for countless days and nights. Now that he saw her return safely, the depression in his heart finally disappeared.
"Xin'er, you can return to the Nie family safely. We are all very happy for you." At this time, a figure next to him said.
He carried a black iron sword on his back, and his appearance was handsome. His slightly dark skin did not destroy his handsomeness, but made him look very tough.
"Brother Nie Ying, you are back too." Nie Xin was a little surprised to see this man.
This person is Nie Ying of that year.
"Five years ago, Nie Ying left Cangyuan Sect to train alone, and now he has returned to the clan to help me take care of things." Nie Changfeng explained.
"I see." Nie Xin nodded, turned to Nie Ying, and said, "Thank you, brother Nie Ying, for sharing my father's worries."
After not seeing each other for several years, although Nie Ying is now arrogant, he is more mature and stable than before. From his slightly deep eyes, it can be seen that he has experienced a lot in these years.
"No way, I am also a member of the Nie family, and it is my job to share the worries of the clan leader." Nie Ying waved his hand and smiled.
Nie Xin looked at Nie Ying after hearing this, but was slightly surprised and said, "You have also cultivated to the Spiritual Transformation Realm."
At this time, Nie Ying had also advanced to the Spiritual Transformation Realm. Although it was only a small success, it was extremely difficult to reach this step in just a few years.
"Haha, I have indeed made some progress in these years, but I can't compare to you, Xin'er. If I'm not mistaken, you are now at least at the level of the Great Spiritual Transformation Realm, right?" Nie Ying said modestly with a wry smile, and then looked at Nie Xin again, with a complex expression on his face.
There was envy, amazement, and unwillingness.
No one knew how much effort he had put in these years, but he didn't expect that he was still one step ahead of Nie Xin.
When Nie Ying said this, all the Nie family members around him gasped and looked at Nie Xin with amazement.
The Great Spiritual Transformation Realm, this is the same level of cultivation as Nie Changfeng!
"Good, good, good... My daughter is really extraordinary!"
Nie Changfeng laughed with relief.
"When you joined the Cangyuan Sect, you were only at the ninth level of Qi Refining. I didn't expect that more than ten years later, you have reached such a realm. No one in Lindu City can match such an achievement."
"Father, you are too kind." Nie Xin was not proud.
"By the way, Xin'er, where have you been these years? We are all very worried about you." Nie Ying interrupted.
"I went to Zhongzhou." Nie Xin replied.
As she spoke, she inadvertently glanced at the black-clothed young man beside her. She was with him when she left the Northern Territory that year, and now she is with him when she returns to the Northern Territory. Is it really destined by heaven?
"Zhongzhou?"
Nie Changfeng and the others were stunned.
At this time, the two of them noticed the young man next to them. When they saw his face, Nie Changfeng's expression suddenly changed, and Nie Ying opened his mouth suddenly. Thinking of a scene that shocked the Northern Territory, his heart was pounding wildly.
"Ye..."
Nie Changfeng's face became serious, and he hurriedly bowed to salute.
Halfway through the action, he suddenly stopped and was stopped by an invisible force.
"Ye is here only temporarily, and there is no need for you, Patriarch Nie." Ye Chunyang said calmly.
He had just escaped from the Black Sea and came here unexpectedly. He didn't want to be high-profile, so he stopped Nie Changfeng from saluting him.
Nie Changfeng's eyes flickered. He had witnessed the scene of Lingxian Mansion with his own eyes that year, and knew that the person in front of him was the "Master Ye" who was famous all over the world at that time, and was also the Supreme Elder of Cangyuan Sect.
Seeing Ye Chunyang stop him from bowing, Nie Changfeng also guessed that the other party might be willing to show off, so his face turned normal and said, "I am very relieved that Master Ye and Xin'er came back together."
After the words fell, he laughed and ordered Qingluo: "Qingluo, arrange a place for Master Ye to stay immediately."
"Yes, I will prepare a guest room for you, please follow me." Qingluo bowed with a smile.
This "Master" made many Nie family members feel complicated.
Nie Xin wanted to explain, but found that he had no way to start.
Nie Yingze couldn't close his mouth for a long time, and didn't dare to look at Ye Chunyang at all.
Nie Changfeng and his companions were entrenched in this small Lindu City, so they naturally didn't know about the epic battle on the top of Linshan Mountain. Perhaps those among them who had received news from the Lingxian Mansion in Yunlan City only thought that Ye Chunyang was "Master Ye" and the Grand Elder of the Cangyuan Sect. Only Nie Ying knew how high this seemingly calm young man stood.
Ye Chunyang didn't care about the eyes of others, and didn't want to waste time to explain anything. He followed Qing Luo and gradually disappeared into the courtyard.
