Until everything was arranged and it was already quiet at night, Nangong Tianya came to the secret room of retreat again, and took out two things from the spirit search bag and put them on the table next to him.

These two objects are a spirit rune that blooms with blue light, and an elixir that is filled with glow, the front of the spirit rune is impressively engraved with an ice dragon circling upward, and the elixir is flooded with energy fluctuations visible to the naked eye, these two things are the ice roar and the tribulation to increase the elixir.

In the evening, Shui Ling Yingyue not only fulfilled her promise and sent Shui Yunyan, Shui Siyan and Shui Mochen, but also returned the spiritual skills and elixirs as a reward, and to Nangong Tianya's surprise, the other party also sent Shui Yingxue to help.

Water Shadow Snow is the deputy hall master of the Moon Shadow Hall, and it is rumored that his cultivation is even higher than that of the Water Moon Jinlan, and he has broken through to the King of Heavy Weapons, and his swordsmanship is quite exquisite, and he is also helped by the Moon Shadow Frost Sword, a medium-grade spiritual weapon, and is the leader among the disciples of the Water Moon Pavilion.

This time, Shui Yingxue also brought a message from Shui Ling Yingyue, although the other party did not say that Shui Yue Pavilion would help, but between his words, he hinted that he would never stand idly by.

Nangong Tianya felt at a loss and puzzled by Shui Ling Yingyue's move, there was no alliance between the two sides, no deep personal relationship, and no interests, and he couldn't tear his face with Qi Wanyong for his own sake, but after carefully thinking about the other party's intentions, he noticed that Shui Yue Pavilion was quite good.

However, there must be a reason for what happened, and Shuiyue Pavilion's move must have a plan, and Nangong Tianya is not easy to ask about this, so he can only go with the flow and take it step by step.

No matter what, with Shui Yingxue and the other four secretly helping each other, even if Qi Wanyong came prepared this time, Nangong Tianya had no worries.

Under careful arrangement, it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no negligence, in order to ensure that the strategy is exhaustive, Nangong Tianya once again sorted out the current deployment.

At present, Yang Tianlin and Han Dayong have been transferred to a secret secret room, temporarily taken care of by the three masters of Shuiyue Jinlan, Lin Li's family is guarded by four guards day and night, Nangong Tianya and Lin Yufei will deal with Qi Wanyong and Cao Tianrui, and Shui Yingxue will secretly deal with those uninvited guests who sneak into the mansion.

Seeing that there were no obvious loopholes in the deployment, Nangong Tianya put away the spiritual skills and pills on the table, he walked quickly to the wall, opened the dark compartment in the wall, and took out the exquisite jade box again.

When Nangong Tianya gently opened the box, a dazzling golden light burst out, illuminating the entire secret room as bright as day.

Looking at the golden light rune in the jade box, Nangong Tianya's eyes flashed slightly, and he whispered to himself: "It's been five years, do you want to ask them to help this time?"

Nangong Tianya's soft words echoed in the secret room, where they were sacred in his mouth, I am afraid that no one else would know except himself, and the golden light talisman in the jade box was obviously not an ordinary thing, where the golden light went, the space was faintly torn!

After returning to the City Lord's Mansion, Cao Tianrui learned from the guards that Qi Wanyong had something important to discuss with him, so he rushed to the council hall non-stop.

Seeing Cao Tianrui walking in in a hurry, Qi Wanyong motioned for him to sit down and speak, and then he asked when he would go to Nangong Tianya's mansion.

Cao Tianrui said with a respectful expression: "Lord Qiyu, in the opinion of my subordinates, this time I went to Nangong Tianya Mansion to visit that hunter, and I must not send someone to infiltrate to investigate. ”

Qi Wanyong was puzzled: "Why is this?"

Cao Tianrui got up and explained: "My lord has already informed Nangong Tianya that he will go to visit the hunter today, I think the other party has already arranged it at this moment, even if we send a master to sneak in, I am afraid it will be difficult to find clues, and we will even be startled by this." ”

Qi Wanyong groaned: "Then what do you say?"

Cao Tianrui walked quickly to Qi Wanyong's side and said softly: "I suggest that the adults go to visit as usual in two days, and learn more about the hunter's situation, and after a period of time, after the other party's awareness of prevention declines, we will find an excuse to summon Nangong Tianya, and at the same time send a master to take the opportunity to sneak in, maybe we can find useful clues." ”

After pondering for a while, Qi Wanyong nodded and said: "This matter is all arranged by you, and you have to choose the candidates for the competition as soon as possible, if there is a suitable person to bring me over first, Fengyang City will hold a qualifier in six years, and all forces inside and outside the city will participate, and my City Lord's Mansion must win the first place!"

Then the two of them talked about other trivial matters, and then left the chamber separately.

A few days later, the news that the city lord personally went to the deputy city lord's mansion to visit Lin Li spread throughout Fengyang City, and this matter was discussed everywhere in the city.

Countless people envy Lin Li's family of three, who can get the favor of the deputy city lord and the reward of the city lord, which undoubtedly represents a bright future, and more good people try their best to inquire about Lin Li's origin, hoping to have something to do with the other party.

Accompanied by Nangong Tianya, Qi Wanyong cordially visited Lin Li's family of three and gave each other a valuable reward.

Seeing that Lin Li was unconscious, Qi Wanyong wanted to find out the clues from Liu's mouth, but he got nothing, he was unwilling, and then he started Lin Song's idea, knowing that the other party's mouth was very tight, and his words were not leaking.

Seeing that he had come here and found nothing, Qi Wanyong was quite annoyed in his heart, he deduced that he still had important things to do, and then left in a hurry with Cao Tianrui.

After returning to the City Lord's Mansion, Qi Wanyong sat down with a gloomy face, this time he went to Nangong Tianya's mansion, he wanted to find out what happened in the small mountain village that day from Lin Li's family, but what he didn't expect was that the man was unconscious, and the woman didn't say a word, and even the child didn't know anything.

Qi Wanyong thought that Nangong Tianya was deliberately embarrassing him, otherwise how could a country woman and a ten-year-old child be tight-lipped.

Since Nangong Tianya came to Fengyang City, although Qi Wanyong still controls everything here, the other party has fought against him everywhere, and even more grievances against those low-level and lowly people, so that the people's grievances suppressed by the power are like sparks, and they have begun to spread in the city again, and their hearts have long been furious.

Qi Wanyong originally wanted to get rid of him quickly, but several elders in the sect had told him many times that he should not easily attack Nangong Tianya, which was the reason why he hesitated.

Looking at Qi Wanyong with an angry face, a hint of sinister flashed in Cao Tianrui's eyes, and he said respectfully: "Don't be angry, Lord City, this time we seem to have gained nothing, but in fact, we have gained a lot. ”

Qi Wanyong was stunned and asked, "What are the gains?"

Cao Tianrui said with a smile: "We didn't take any action this time, so that everything carefully arranged by the other party did not come in handy, Nangong Tianya must be very confused at this time, so that they can't guess our intentions, which is conducive to us finding another time to start." ”

Qi Wanyong was dissatisfied when he heard this: "Is that all?"

Cao Tianrui continued: "I found that the four guards of the Deputy City Lord's Mansion were secretly guarding the surroundings of the hunter's room, it seems that Nangong Tianya values this person very much, we can inquire in many ways, and we may be able to get any useful information."

Qi Wanyong nodded and said: "This is good news, you go and find out quickly, if it is really as you said, we can put some effort into that hunter, maybe we can make Nangong Tianya fall into the trap." ”

Cao Tianrui said in a deep voice: "In addition, my subordinates also spied on a few unfamiliar breaths in the mansion, and it seems that Nangong Tianya has also invited reinforcements." ”

Qi Wanyong said in surprise: "I invited strong reinforcements, why didn't I notice it?" Five years ago, Nangong Tianya came to Fengyang City alone, and all the forces in the city have respected him, where did he find help?"

Cao Tianrui said with a smile: "City Lord, you only have Nangong Tianya in your eyes, so naturally you won't notice these details, as for which force is secretly helping him, your subordinates don't know." ”

"Hmph, I want to see who is so ignorant of life and death that dares to fight against me in Fengyang City!" Qi Wan stood up violently and smashed the table beside him with one palm.

Glancing at the table that had been shattered into sawdust, Cao Tianrui said softly: "The six major forces in Fengyang City, including the Moon God Temple, Xunwu Sect, Ancient Heavenly Gate, Lanting Villa, Water Moon Pavilion, and Tianxing Sect, are all looking at the heads of adults, and the masters invited by Nangong Tianya must be the forces outside the city, and their subordinates will immediately let the fog wind and cold secretly monitor and investigate." ”

Just when Qi Wanyong was in a rage in the City Lord's Mansion, Nangong Tianya was sitting in his room, he looked thoughtful, and Lin Yufei stood aside respectfully.

After a while, Nangong Tianya asked, "They didn't act today, this is not like Qi Wanyong's usual style, does he have other arrangements?"

Lin Yufei said softly: "Qi Wanyong is just a reckless man, don't be afraid, I guess Cao Tianrui thought that we would be on guard, so he persuaded Qi Wanyong to wait for the opportunity to spy again." ”

Nangong Tianya sighed lightly: "Open guns are easy to dodge, but hidden arrows are difficult to prevent, so there is a long way to go to prevent them, I must go to Shuiyue Pavilion again to discuss the current situation with Shuiling Yingyue." ”

Looking at Nangong Tianya, Lin Yufei said worriedly: "Judging from today's situation, I think the other party has noticed Qingyan and the four of them, and they will definitely think that Lin Li is very important to adults, and I am worried that Qi Wanyong will look for an opportunity to use him to blackmail adults." ”

Nangong Tianya snorted coldly: "This is not to be feared, I have already thought of a place to settle them, but I still need to observe for a while, as for Yang Tianlin and them, I also have other arrangements, during this time, you and the masters of the Water Moon Pavilion must be vigilant and not relax their vigilance." ”

The sun and the moon flew by, and the time of three months passed quickly, during this period, Nangong Tianya often visited Lin Li's family of three, and he found that the energy gathered in Lin Li's dantian was close to saturation, which means that as long as the opportunity came, he could become a real instrument.

In addition, Nangong Tianya also found some time to play with Lin Song.

From Liu's mouth, Nangong Tianya learned that Lin Song insisted on using the elixir left by the dust every day for internal and external use, and his body was strong and his bones were strong, which was by no means comparable to ordinary children.

In view of this, Nangong Tianya decided to guide Lin Song to cultivate swordsmanship first and lay a solid foundation for him, which can be regarded as a little feedback for the grace of that adult's cultivation and recreation.

Looking at Lin Song's slightly jerky swordsmanship, Nangong Tianya was quite surprised in his heart, in just one month, this young man had basically mastered the first-grade sword martial arts, while it would take a year for ordinary weapons to successfully cultivate it.

As Lin Song quickly swung out two powerful assassinations, a clear sound came out, and a rockery in the courtyard was immediately stabbed in two.

Although the speed of the sword move was not fast enough, and the blasting power of the piercing point was not very strong, in just one month, Lin Song was able to cultivate to this point, which was enough to be jaw-dropping.

Looking at the talented and intelligent young man in front of him, Nangong Tianya was overjoyed, he patted Lin Song's shoulder and said, "Good boy, you have really good swordsmanship." ”

Lin Song had already learned from his mother that the majestic young man in front of him was the famous deputy city lord of Fengyang City, whose cultivation was very powerful, and three months ago, he had killed the fourth-order Violent Blood Reverse Scale Wolf with one move.

Looking at Nangong Tianya slyly, Lin Song smiled and said: "Uncle Nangong, I know that your strength is very strong, and you have solved that powerful demon beast in one fell swoop, so can you accept me as an apprentice? After I go back, I will tell Xiaohu and Xiaoxun that you are my master, and they will definitely be very envious." ”

Nangong Tianya was stunned for a moment, and then scolded with a smile: "I will accept you as an apprentice, teach you great skills, and let you be envied by others, so what good will I do?"

"Your apprentice is envied by others, so you will naturally be a master and follow suit, Uncle Nangong, you said it yourself, where can you find such a great benefit." Lin Song almost blurted out.

"You ......" Nangong Tianya felt very aggrieved in his heart, and he couldn't say the following words.

Looking at Lin Song's blazing eyes, Nangong Tianya said solemnly: "I can teach you to cultivate, but I can't be your master, and you can cultivate with me, except for your parents, you must not tell anyone else, can you promise me?"

Seeing that Nangong Tianya's face was quite serious, Lin Song also put away his smiling expression, and he nodded heavily: "I promised my uncle that I would not tell anyone about this matter again." ”

Touching Lin Song's little head, Nangong Tianya slowly stood up, and at this moment he had his own thoughts.

Nangong Tianya thought in his heart that since Lin Song had the will to cultivate, then he could help him lay a good foundation first, and he would not waste the time of the past few years, but he could never be the other party's master, and that adult would accept him as a disciple in the future.
