Volume 1: The Beginning of the Tide Chapter 4: The Swordsmith of the Tide
However, after waiting for a while, the sword master elder of Canglan Courtyard still did not show any signs of appearing.
Ling Diyuan began to get impatient, flicked his sleeves, couldn't help but get angry, and was already planning to leave: "Why hasn't this guy come yet? Even if he is an elder of Canglan Courtyard, the leader will not be so big." Although the Ling family and the Canglan Courtyard can't be on the same stage, our Ling family can't be bullied casually! Let's wait, what kind of system will it be?"
"People are guests from afar, and we, as hosts, are fine waiting a little longer. What's more, the person who came was still the elder of Canglan, and he was probably delayed by a sudden important event. ”
Ling Tianhao patiently admonished and patted Ling Diyuan's fat body. Under the advice of the eldest brother, the angry Ling Diyuan reluctantly retreated to his original position.
"Most of the people who came to Canglan City in the past were ordinary mentors in the Canglan Academy, why did they come to the Ling family this time to be an elder-level figure. Big brother, do you know why?"
Why did Canglan Academy attach so much importance to the Ling family this time, and Ling Renjie was very puzzled by this matter. Could it be that there is something hidden that no one knows?
Every once in a while, Canglan Academy would send outstanding mentors to Canglan City to teach the cultivation methods of various avenues and guide the disciples of various families in Canglan City to cultivate. But the people who came in the past were basically ordinary mentors in the Canglan Academy. Except for one family that had a close relationship with Dean Canglan who had an elder who had been present in person, I had never heard of a single elder of Canglan coming to other families in Canglan City in person. To have the elders present today is not only for the Ling family, but also for the entire Canglan City, which can be described as a once-in-a-lifetime event in thousands of years.
Ling Tianhao looked into the air and answered this question with a faint smile: "The elder who came today is named Qian Changkun. This Elder Qian is a good friend of mine for many years. A long time ago, he and I practiced outside, cultivating spiritual power and studying martial arts together. Although there is a big gap in age, the two of us can be regarded as old friends. ”
"It's a small world, but it's really small. Unexpectedly, after many years of absence, he came to Canglan Courtyard to serve as an elder, so that we can reunite in this Canglan Domain, which is already remote compared to the Imperial City. ”
"Therefore, the one who came to the Ling family this time would be an elder-level figure in Canglan Academy. ”
I see. No one could have imagined that the head of the family, Ling Tianhao, and the sword master elder of the Canglan Academy would be friends for many years, and the reason why the Canglan Academy would send an elder to the Ling family in person this time was actually because of this.
"Since that elder is your brother, why do you want me to wait so hard, obviously he doesn't take our Ling family seriously. Ling Diyuan complained quietly.
However, he didn't dare to let Ling Tianhao, who attached great importance to righteousness, hear this, otherwise he would inevitably provoke a severe reprimand from his eldest brother.
Just as everyone continued to wait, a hearty laugh suddenly sounded in the air. An old man carrying a slender wooden sword on his back was stepping into the void, striding towards him, and appeared in the sky above the Ling family.
"Haha, the old man is late, please invite Ling Jiahaihan. ”
Seeing the scene in front of him, the surprise was like a thunderbolt in the clear sky, resounding in the hearts of everyone present, and everyone was shocked.
Step on the void! The person who came turned out to be a Heavenly Spirit Realm level powerhouse!
Only after cultivating to reach the Heavenly Spirit Realm can a martial artist have the opportunity to initially come into contact with the mysteries of space power. After comprehending the power of space, you can step on the void in front of you and walk in the air.
Ling Tianhao, the number one master of the Ling family, only had the cultivation of the tenfold peak of the Earth Spirit Realm. Although it is very close to the realm of the heavenly spirit, the earth spirit realm and the heavenly spirit realm, one is the sky and the other is the earth, after all, they cannot be compared.
"Elder Qian is here, it's too late for my Ling family to feel honored, how can Haihan forgive his sins?"
Seeing the comer, Ling Tianhao felt quite emotional in his heart, and hurriedly stepped forward to greet him: "Brother Changkun, it's been a long time. I didn't expect that many years later, you would be a distinguished Elder Qian in the Canglan Academy. It's really unpredictable, it's unpredictable. ”
"Hahahaha, Brother Tianhao, you are really hiding deeply. Back then, the old man didn't know that you would be the head of the Ling family in Canglan City. Qian Changkun walked with his feet on the ground and brushing his beard, feeling the same in his heart.
After many years of separation, the two old friends are actually reunited in these two identities today.
"Come, Brother Changkun, let me introduce you to the children of our Ling family, they all admire you. Ling Tianhao greeted Qian Changkun to the location where everyone in the Ling family was.
"Yes, yes, admiration, admiration. ”
Ling Diyuan hurriedly nodded and echoed, how could there be an extremely dissatisfied look on his face just now? The identity of the elder of the Canglan people was there, even if he ate the bear's heart and leopard gall, he would definitely not dare to provoke.
If Canglan Domain is a tree, then Canglan Courtyard is the trunk of the tree. The Ling family is just a relatively thick branch on the tree.
Ling Tianhao introduced everyone around him to Qian Changkun one by one. Everyone saluted respectfully to the sword master elder of the Canglan Courtyard in front of them, and did not dare to slack off in the slightest. Although he is Ling Tianhao's best friend, now Qian Changkun represents not only himself, but also the overlord of the Canglan Courtyard, and Ling Tianhao also represents the Ling family.
Because of his position, Ye Xiao was on the very edge, and he was the last person introduced by Ling Tianhao to Qian Changkun.
When Ling Tianhao mentioned Ye Xiao, Qian Changkun also smiled heartily: "It turns out that he is the kid you said loves swordsmanship, and he looks quite handsome." ”
However, as soon as the words fell, his face was a little solemn, and he obviously saw the difference in Ye Xiao.
There is no spiritual power! There is no trace of spiritual power on this son's body!
Qian Changkun frowned and walked over, stretched out his hand and pressed his fingers to the location of Ye Xiao's pulse, exploring Ye Xiao's situation. As time passed, his brow furrowed even more. After a long time, the pinched fingers finally slowly released.
"It's the depletion of the Spirit Mansion!"
Qian Changkun is worthy of being a powerhouse in the Heavenly Spirit Realm, and his perception of spiritual power is many times stronger than that of ordinary people. The conclusion that the Sect Master of Medicine and Dao had reached after a long time of probing was broken by him.
"Brother Changkun...... Is there a way?"
Ling Tianhao knew that his brother's supernatural powers were vast, and he anxiously asked, still holding a glimmer of hope in his heart. Since Qian Changkun can see Ye Xiao's situation at a glance, maybe he can really say a rare way to make the big stone that has been backlogged in his heart for many years fall.
However, the ideal is beautiful, but the reality is very cruel. In response to Ling Tianhao, only Qian Changkun shook his head helplessly: "The old man is only a shallow learner, and he can't think of a countermeasure, I'm afraid that he will disappoint the Tianhao brothers." ”
"But there are no absolutes. Just because the old man can't solve it doesn't mean that others can't do it. ”
Mentioning Ye Xiao's situation again, Ling Tianhao couldn't bear it in his heart, but on the surface, he still forced a smile and washed the dust for Qian Changkun.
The two of them have been friends for many years, how could Qian Changkun not understand Ling Tianhao's mood at the moment? Ye Xiao is Ling Tianhao's righteous son, and he can also be regarded as his junior. But even if I wanted to help, I couldn't do anything.
Although he knew that most of the results were like this, Ye Xiao was still a little difficult to accept. Even the Heavenly Spirit Realm level Qian Changkun can't do anything?
The Heavenly Spirit Realm was already the highest realm he could reach. As for the higher-level realm, I haven't even seen it at all, and it only exists in the casual conversation after dinner.
In the dining room of the Ling family, Qian Changkun and the three heroes of the Ling family were seated together, and several juniors sat at another table. Ye Xiao was in the mood to eat at this time, and a few bites of hasty eating were counted. A person came outside and sat silently in the courtyard in a daze.
The scene in front of him was so harmonious and beautiful, and a picture suddenly attracted Ye Xiao's attention.
It was a few chicks yearning for the sky, desperately fanning their wings in the air. Despite the extreme difficulty of flying and the risk of falling at any time, one day they will grow into eagles with wings spread.
"Kids. Qian Changkun sounded from behind Ye Xiao. Ye Xiao didn't find out when Qian Changkun arrived, and hurriedly stood up: "Elder Qian has something to do with the junior?"
"Although I can't do anything about the depletion of the Spirit Mansion, you have to remember that no matter whether you are related to the path of martial arts or not, as long as you do your best and persevere to the end on the path you choose, you are a strong man!"
Listening to your words is better than reading a book for ten years!
Qian Changkun's words were like a blow to the head, and Ye Xiao, who was completely immersed in loss, suddenly woke up: "Thank you seniors for mentioning something, and the younger generations will follow the teachings of their predecessors." ”
Qian Changkun deserves to be called a master, and in one sentence, Ye Xiaoliu was bright and suddenly bright.
What is the meaning of human life? is to chase dreams and realize one's ambitions. If a person has no hope of life, then what is the difference between him and an empty shell?
Even if you can't cultivate spiritual power, what if you want to be defeated like this? Heaven and earth are so big, and in the vast world, there are thousands of roads. All roads lead to success. As long as you are willing to look, there will always be a path of your own.
Don't you love kendo? Maybe kendo is your own way.
"What the seniors taught is that the younger generations should not sink just like that. Finding your own way is the most important thing for the younger generation. ”
"If you think of it, I didn't say it in vain. ”
Qian Changkun was very pleased, and thought to himself: This son has such a heart at a young age, and he will definitely have some achievements in the future. With his identity, there is a great possibility that he will become an important figure in the Ling family in the future. With Ye Xiao's son in charge of the Ling family, he will definitely be able to take the Ling family to a new height in the future.
After a short time, the Ling family compound was in the courtyard.
Qian Changkun sat cross-legged in the center, motionless. In the eyes of others, he held his breath, like a sitting old monk, without any movement, without causing the slightest wave, giving people the illusion that it did not exist.
At this time, the Ling family's compound was already crowded with many figures. Everyone took Qian Changkun, who was meditating in the center of the compound, as the center of the circle, and circled one circle after another to form a circle composed of people, and the inside and outside of the position occupied were determined by the identities of each person.
