The two of them, one in front and one behind, turned through numerous courtyards and walked into the depths of the small garden. Along the way, the purple-dressed Xu yuanshuang whispered, ‘
“My mother wanted to ask about him!”
Ji Xuan laughed,”as expected. All these years, the clansmen have been harsh to aunt and have always said unpleasant things.” But I feel that what aunt did back then was only human nature. As a mother, which mother wouldn’t love her child?”
“Seventh brother, are you implying that my father is worse than a beast?” Xu yuanshuang glanced at him.
Ji Xuan’s smile did not change. the state preceptor has only made a choice.
What is cousin yuanshuang’s attitude towards that person? ”
Xu yuanshuang sighed. father and uncle want him dead. I can’t change that.
But to me, he’s still my brother. We come from the same mother. All I can do is try not to pay attention to him and pretend he doesn’t exist.”
“But I’ve heard from Yuan Huai that you’ve been actively asking around for information about him,” Ji Xuan said, narrowing his eyes.
Xu yuanshuang’s beautiful face blushed.
The two of them ended their conversation and walked in silence for a moment.
Whoosh, whoosh, Whoosh!
The sound of wind whistling could be heard. When they turned into a large courtyard, they discovered that a young man was practicing with the spear. The nine-foot long spear in his hand was exuding a mighty aura.
The Spear’s body was pitch-black, and the spearhead was a golden flood dragon’s head. It opened its mouth and spat out the Spear’s tip.
His face was cold as he waved his spear. The wind whistled in the yard, stirring up dust.
“Yuan Huai,”
Ji Xuan greeted with a smile.
The young man who was practicing with the spear stopped and looked over. A faint smile appeared on his cold face as he said, “Sister, seventh brother.”
Yuan Huai’s spear technique has improved again. Have you comprehended spear intent? ” Said Ji Xuan with a smile.
“Just a little bit more,”
“I can achieve rank-4 within half a year,” Xu yuanhuai nodded and said.
His expression was cold, and his tone was also cold, as if ascending to the fourth stage was an insignificant matter.
“Yuan Huai’s talent is truly terrifying, ” Ji Xuan said with emotion.
Xu yuanhuai, seventeen years old, had a terrible talent for cultivation. At fifteen years old, he had refined essence, at sixteen years old, his skin was as tough as iron, and at seventeen years old, he had touched the threshold of the fourth stage “will.”
Of course, this was also related to the abundant resources. The status of the Xu siblings in the hidden Dragon City was not inferior to that of Ji Xuan and his brothers and sisters.
He had been taught by famous teachers since he was young, had no lack of medicinal pills, and had been taught moves by experts.
For these young geniuses with prominent status, the essence refinement realm could only be cultivated after their bodies had grown up, but the spirit refinement realm could be cultivated one step ahead.
He had been visualizing since he was young and tempering his primordial spirit. When he had crossed the two realms of essence and Qi, it would be a matter of time for him to step into the spirit-refinement realm. After that, with the help of top-grade elixirs to temper his body and soul, it would not be difficult for him to reach the bronze skin and iron bones realm.
However, Xu yuanhuai only took a year to advance to the fifth level after the sixth level, which showed his great talent.
Although Xu yuanhuai was a fifth stage huajin, the flood Dragon Spear in his hand was a top-tier magic weapon. The body of the spear was made of the spine of a fourth stage flood Dragon, and the head was made of the sharpest and hardest dragon teeth of a flood Dragon.
In addition, the primordial spirit of a flood Dragon of the fourth stage was sealed in the spear.
With this spear and the other magical artifacts that accompanied him, ordinary fourth stage cultivators were no match for him.
Compared to his eldest son, who was treated as a vessel, Xu Pingfeng was quite nice to his second son.
“Seventh brother, what are you doing here?” Xu yuanhuai asked.
“My aunt is looking for me,” Ji Xuan replied.
Xu yuanhuai looked at his sister. He stood firmly with the long spear in his hand and nodded.
“Mother is in the inner hall, I’ll lead you there.”
Ji Xuan laughed as he shook his head. This younger cousin of his seemed to be quite interested in the older brother that he had never met before.
The three cousins passed through the courtyard and entered the inner hall. A beautiful woman in luxurious clothes was sitting on a high chair. She had a dignified oval face, snow-white skin, and cherry lips. Her facial features were extremely beautiful.
She was no longer young, but time did not leave any mark on her beautiful face. Instead, it settled her temperament and gave her a mature charm that young girls did not have.
There was a faint sorrow between her brows, like a lilac with sorrow.
“Aunt!”
Ji Xuan greeted with a smile.
“Mother!”
The siblings, Xu yuanhuai and Xu yuanshuang, also shouted.
The beautiful woman held the teacup, her Jade-like fingers pinching the lid of the tea cup and gently knocking the edge of the cup. Her voice was magnetic and gentle.
“He’s back?”
As she asked the question, the beautiful woman’s eyes were fixed on Ji Xuan, and her fingers that were holding the lid of the tea cup tightened slightly.
the state preceptor has returned. He and my father summoned me just now.
When Ji Xuan smiled, he would narrow his eyes, giving off an amiable and easy to get along with appearance.
The beautiful woman held her breath and slowly said, “”ls it done?”
Xu yuanhuai and Xu yuanshuang immediately looked over and waited for the answer.
“Aunt, what you want to ask is whether the fate energy in Xu Qi ‘an’s body has been taken out,” Ji Xuan said after some thought.
The beautiful woman’s breathing immediately became heavy.
“The state preceptor has failed,” Ji Xuan shook his head and sighed. Hu … The beautiful woman’s towering chest heaved up and down as if she had been relieved of a heavy burden.
The purple-dressed Xu yuanshuang had a complicated expression.
Xu yuanhuai’s expression was still as cold as ever.
The beautiful woman couldn’t hide her smile. Her decision back then was correct. Within the nine regions, if there was anyone who could protect her eldest son, it was none other than the supervisor.
In her eyes, be it her family’s business or her husband’s great ambitions, none of them could compare to the child she had carried for nine months.
Even though she had been placed under house arrest here, even though she had been left out for more than ten years after giving birth to a son and a daughter.
The clansmen all said that the child was mediocre and incompetent. Compared to his younger siblings, he was simply a pile of mud that couldn’t be supported on the wall. Using such a waste as a vessel for fate could be considered as making the best use of it.
However, her soft-heartedness delayed the important matters.
She scoffed. Why should her child be sacrificed for the family’s business?
Over the past ten years, the clan had often ridiculed and used the term ” trash ” to stab her. In the year of the capital investigation, such a term had gradually decreased. Now, no one dared to say that the child was trash.
If her child was a good-for-nothing, who else in the world could be?
“Not only did he fail, but he was also seriously injured. He might need to go into seclusion for a period of time before he can recover,” Ji Xuan continued.
“The supervisor is indeed powerful. It’s too difficult for father to plot against him.
Xu yuanhuai commented lightly, ‘
“A first-grade Warlock is naturally not easy to deal with. We can take over Da
Feng’s territory in a proper manner, and only then can we replace it. ”
Ji Xuan thought for a moment and said,
“From what you’ve said, it seems that it wasn’t Jian Zheng who injured him, but the backlash of fate.”
“The backlash of luck? How was Xu Qi ‘an doing? Explain clearly …”
The beautiful woman frowned and asked.
Seeing his aunt and cousins looking over, Ji Xuan shrugged his shoulders and said,
“Father and the state preceptor didn’t say that it was. secret anyway … Well, it seemed that the National master’s failure this time was because Xu Qi ‘an had guessed his identity in advance and the truth behind the scenes related to fate, so he had already set up a plan.
“As for the backlash of fate, the Imperial advisor didn’t go into detail, but it obviously has something to do with Xu Qi ‘an.”
She had already guessed his identity … The beautiful woman was both surprised and sad. The surprise was that her eldest son was so powerful that even a second-grade Warlock could not easily control his life and death, which made her proud.
What kind of blow would the truth of sadness cause to him?
Xu yuanshuang’s eyes widened slightly. The beautiful girl could not hide the shock in her eyes. She was a Warlock and knew how powerful and terrifying her father was.
His elder brother, who was far away in the capital, had destroyed his father’s plan of twenty years and seriously injured his father in a counterattack. How amazing was this?
Xu yuanhuai was still expressionless.
The beautiful woman took a deep breath and asked again, “”Did he say anything about Xu Qi ‘an’s current situation?”
Ji Xuan nodded. yes. Xu Qi ‘an has been sealed by the demon-sealing nail of the Buddhist sect. His cultivation has been crippled. It’s extremely difficult to unseal him. I don’t think there’s any hope.
ah! the beautiful woman let out a low cry. Her eyes were red, and she was worried and distressed.
Xu yuanhuai frowned.
. ‘m crippled … The elder sister, Xu yuanshuang, had a look of pity on her face.
She looked at Ji Xuan and said,
“Seventh brother, father and uncle didn’t come to you just to talk about this, right?”
With a smile, Ji Xuan examined his younger cousin and said frankly,”ln a few days, I’m going out to travel and help father and uncle with things.”
“What is it?” Xu yuanshuang asked.
“Collect the scattered spirit of the dragon vein to strengthen our fate energy and contribute to the great cause of replacing the DA Feng imperial family.”
Xu yuanhuai’s eyes lit up. seventh brother, I’ll go with you.
Xu yuanshuang frowned.
“Sure, but you have to greet my father and the state preceptor first.” The smile on Ji Xuan’s face slowly spread.
Yongzhou City.
A young man in green LED a horse and walked down the main road.
On the horse’s back sat a woman with ordinary looks. As the horse walked, she jolted up and down. From time to time, she stepped on the stirrups and lifted her buttocks to relieve the soreness in her buttocks.
In this era, long distance travel was extremely tiring for ordinary people. The weak could even die of illness on the way.
Fortunately, the two of them had been traveling at a slow speed by boat and horse. Occasionally, they would stay at an Inn for a day or two to relieve their fatigue.
This ordinary man and woman blended into the crowd and were not eye-catching. They were not as attractive as the young mare under the woman.
At the very least, this horse was tall, strong, and had beautiful curves. One look was enough to tell that it was a top-grade horse.
“I’ve been to Yongzhou City once to save a friend, so I’ll tell you a secret. In the mountains a few dozen li south of the city, there’s an ancient underground
Palace. There’s an ancient corpse that’s been sleeping for a few thousand years. It’s very evil.” you’re lying. mu Nanxi looked scared. you’re lying.
Xu Qi ‘an winked at him. why Would I Lie to You? remember to lock the windows and doors when you sleep at night. Don’t open the door if someone knocks on it.
Mu Nanxi looked at him suspiciously. you’re the one who knocked on my door, aren’t you? ” ” you’re the one.
“Nonsense,”
“We’ve been gone for so many days. Did I knock on your door?” Xu Qi ‘an said seriously.
“That’s true!”
Mu nanzhi lifted her butt again, half-lying on the little mare to relieve the soreness.
The two of them entered the city. The streets were packed with people, and the memorial archway’s cloth fluttered in the wind. It was a lively and bustling scene.
Xu Qi ‘an asked the people on the roadside where the best Inn in Yongzhou City was. After getting the address, he led the horse and walked in the direction pointed out by the good-hearted person.
Mu nanzhi smiled.
This stinky man could still be considered to be trustworthy. As expected, he brought her to stay in the best Inn and eat the best food. Now that they had arrived in Yongzhou City, she planned to go for a stroll in the Rouge and face powder shop.
When they passed by a medicine shop, Xu Qi ‘an tied the little mare to a stake outside the shop and smiled. “Wait a moment, I’ll go buy something.”
Mu nanzhi was too lazy to get off the horse and hummed in a reserved manner.
After entering the medicine shop, Xu Qi ‘an came to the counter and said, “”Shopkeeper, give me two pounds of white arsenic.”
“Two, two catties?”
The shopkeeper, who was wearing a Blue Coat, looked at this young customer.
Xu Qi ‘an placed two pieces of silver on the table.
The shopkeeper immediately felt that this customer’s temperament and appearance were both beautiful. He smiled and said, ‘”‘Please wait a moment,
Sir.”
He immediately ordered the waiter to weigh two catties of arsenic.
The waiter quickly brought back the arsenic and the weight. He weighed the amount in front of Xu Qi ‘an and packed it for him.
“Sir, please keep it.”
Xu Qi ‘an took it, opened the paper bag again, took out the water bag, and poured some arsenic into the water bag. He shook it a few times, and then drank it in front of the shopkeeper and the waiter.
“As expected of Yongzhou city’s medicine store.”
Xu Qi ‘an gave him a thumbs up,”the taste is good!”
The shopkeeper sat on the ground and looked at him in fear.
The waiter’s jaw almost dropped to the ground.
“Sorry for the disturbance, goodbye!”
Xu Qi ‘an picked up the remaininq arsenic and left, satisfied..
