On the third day after receiving Jiang Wenshu's news, Jiang Xuehan arrived in Zhejiang City by car and went to the Ouyang family's mansion with Jiang Wenshu to celebrate Ouyang Zhiyuan's birthday.

Jiang Xuehan vaguely guessed the intention of the Ouyang family to invite her this time, Ouyang Zhiyuan's birthday banquet was just an excuse, and it should be the ancestor of the Ouyang family who really wanted to see her.

There are many luxury cars parked outside the Ouyang family's mansion, and the lights inside and outside the mansion are colorful, which is festive.

When Ouyang Zhiyuan saw Jiang Wenshu and Jiang Xuehan, he greeted him happily, his originally shriveled face was much more rosy, and he looked more energetic.

After a brief greeting between the two sides, Jiang Wenshu and Ouyang Zhiyuan entered the hall, Ouyang Zichen saw that Jiang Xuehan had no intention of following the past, and after making eye contact with Ouyang Zhiyuan, he stayed to accompany Jiang Xuehan.

Jiang Xuehan said hello to Ouyang Zichen casually, and found an unmanned pavilion to sit down, the Ouyang family has strong financial resources, and the entire mansion looks like a small royal palace, and even a small pavilion is quite chic.

The maid quickly served tea and snacks, Ouyang Zichen sat quietly beside Jiang Xuehan, only when Jiang Xuehan talked to him, he answered quickly, otherwise he looked very patient and drank tea quietly.

Jiang Xuehan sat idly for nearly half an hour, seeing that there were more and more guests, and the surroundings were also noisy, and when he was about to get up and walk, Ouyang Zichen suddenly stood up in a trance, looked straight into the distance, and muttered: "Old Ancestor......"

The surroundings also fell silent in an instant, Jiang Xuehan looked at Ouyang Zichen's line of sight, and his heart fluctuated slightly.

When she never saw the ancestor of the Ouyang family, she thought that the ancestor was a white-haired old man, but she didn't expect it to be a beautiful young man in the wind of Yushu.

I saw that the ancestor of the Ouyang family was dressed in an antique crescent-colored robe, with fluttering clothes, long black hair tied up with a white hosta, and his face was like a peach blossom and bright like a star.

Jiang Xuehan stood in the pavilion and saw the ancestor coming slowly from a distance, with a myriad of manners, and his gestures had his own ancient charm.

At this time, the ancestor seemed to notice Jiang Xuehan's gaze, his head tilted slightly, his gaze fixed on Jiang Xuehan, and he showed a faint smile at her.

I don't know if it's Jiang Xuehan's illusion, she seems to see a hint of flattery from the ancestor's faint smile.

Jiang Xuehan also nodded to the ancestor, unconsciously probing the ancestor, a trace of doubt rose in her heart, she actually felt the aura floating on the ancestor's body, although the spiritual power was weak, it was enough to surprise her.

Speaking of which, apart from herself, this Ouyang family ancestor who is said to have lived for hundreds of years is the first person she has met with spiritual power.

Ouyang Lin looked at Jiang Xuehan and was shocked in his heart, he couldn't detect the strength of the other party, there were only two reasons, one was that the other party was an ordinary human at all, and the second was that the other party's strength far surpassed him.

But according to Ouyang Zhiyuan's rhetoric, Jiang Xuehan was good at ancient medicine at a young age, and he was able to distinguish the ancient poisonous herbs that only cultivators knew, which showed that Jiang Xuehan was definitely not an ordinary person, and at present, Jiang Xuehan's strength was stronger than him.

Ouyang Lin is a cultivator, hundreds of years ago with the help of the immortal cultivators in the spiritual realm, he embarked on the path of cultivation, in exchange, Ouyang Lin wanted to become the eyeliner of the immortal cultivators in the spiritual realm to monitor the mortal world.

However, not long after Ouyang Lin embarked on the path of cultivation, the immortal cultivators in the spirit realm suddenly had no news, and at that time, Ouyang Lin himself had not yet cultivated spiritual power, nor did he have a key, so he had been quietly retreating and cultivating for the next few hundred years, and he did not leave the level until a few days ago.

Ouyang Lin was not alone, there were many people who were willing to serve the powerhouses in the Spirit Realm in order to become cultivators, and since they lost contact with the Spirit Realm, they all retreated silently for many years like Ouyang Lone, in order to cultivate spiritual power as soon as possible.

However, the spiritual energy in this mortal world is close to exhaustion, and the spiritual power that can be cultivated in only ten years has been dragged out for hundreds of years.

Only when one steps into the spiritual realm can a cultivator have a chance to become an immortal cultivator, because the aura in the world is already very thin, and most of the aura has been introduced into the spiritual realm.

If you don't have enough aura to support the energy required for cultivation, you can't reach the realm of a strong person, which is why the current cultivators are not eye-catching.

The strange poison in Ouyang Zhiyuan is just an ordinary poison for an immortal cultivator in the spirit realm, but for an ancient martial artist who has no spiritual power, this poison is extremely powerful.

As for the thing that kept Ouyang Zhiyuan immortal, it was the Wan Pi Dan that Ouyang Lin handed over to the patriarch of the Ouyang family hundreds of years ago, and the Wan Bi Dan was given to Ouyang Lin by the immortal cultivators in the spiritual realm, and Ouyang Lin didn't use it, so it was passed down from generation to generation as a family heirloom.

Ouyang Zhiyuan sent Qingming and Meiluo as Ouyang Zichen's assistants, and asked Ouyang Zichen to investigate the case of Ouyang Yuan's poisoning.

……

In the blink of an eye, Ouyang Lin was already standing in front of Jiang Xuehan, and Ouyang Zichen was panicked, not knowing what the ancestor wanted to do, after all, Jiang Xuehan was not a master to be messed with.

"Xuehan Xiaoyou, I have admired my name for a long time. Ouyang Lin was the first to speak, and his voice was like snow falling on a branch, cold and empty.

Jiang Xuehan smiled slightly and did not say a word.

"It's rude, I haven't introduced myself yet, I'm Ouyang Lone. ”

Jiang Xuehan nodded and said, "Hello Ouyang Lian, I'm Jiang Xuehan. ”

Ouyang Zichen's back stiffened, he didn't expect Jiang Xuehan to be so unpolite, he called the ancestor by his name, and hurriedly gave Jiang Xuehan a look, but Jiang Xuehan turned a blind eye.

The next scene made Ouyang Zichen stunned, only to see Ouyang Lin smile gently, not minding at all.

"Xuehan Xiaoyou seems to have a good relationship with Zichen" Ouyang Lin glanced at Ouyang Zichen and said tentatively.

Jiang Xuehan said flatly: "I have dealt with it, and I am an acquaintance." ”

Ouyang Lin nodded, made a gesture of please, and said slowly: "If Xuehan Xiaoyou doesn't mind, please go to the living room with me." ”

When Ouyang Zichen heard this, he hurriedly stepped forward to lead the way, since it was a separate conversation, it was impossible to go to the main hall with a lot of people, and could only go to the tea room with a more elegant style.

Ouyang Zichen ordered someone to prepare tea and dismissed the left and right, leaving only Ouyang Lin and Jiang Xuehan to sit facing each other.

Jiang Xuehan took a sip of tea soup and asked knowingly: "Ouyang Lone, you must have also explored me."

Ouyang was stunned for a moment, and suddenly smiled: "I'm ashamed, I've been cultivating for hundreds of years, barely cultivating spiritual power, but I didn't think of a pass, and I saw such an unfathomable powerhouse as you." ”

"You are an immortal cultivator"

Ouyang Lin shook his head and said, "No, I'm just a beginner cultivator now, and the real immortal cultivator only exists in the spirit realm. ”

"You've got a lot of potential. ”

"Back then, the immortal cultivators in the spiritual realm were willing to lead me to the path of cultivation because they saw my potential, otherwise, I was just an ancient martial artist, and I would have turned into a piece of loess. ”

"What do you want to talk about with me?"

Ouyang Lin said: "I heard Zichen say, you once asked him about the jade bead, and you also know the existence of the key, right?"

Jiang Xuehan asked rhetorically: "You want to enter the spiritual realm for better cultivation, right?"

"At present, if I don't enter the spirit realm, I can only stop at this stage and cannot move forward, and my goal is to become an immortal cultivator. ”

"It's none of my business. ”

Ouyang Lin shook his head and said, "No, this must have something to do with you, aren't you a cultivator, isn't the purpose of your cultivation to become an immortal cultivator, only by entering the spiritual realm, you can become an immortal cultivator!"

Jiang Xuehan didn't need to enter the spirit realm at all, it was enough for her to have space, but she couldn't expose the existence of space, which would trigger unimaginable scuffles, like a tragic battle thousands of years ago.

"I can find all the jade beads in one piece, and naturally I can go to the spirit realm alone. ”

"It's not that simple, you should understand the truth of guilt. Ouyang Lin shook his head and said, "There are other cultivators in this world, they are hidden in the shadows, if you want to open the door to the spiritual realm, it will inevitably cause spiritual energy fluctuations, and the spiritual energy fluctuations will last for a long time, before the door is opened, they will definitely arrive, and what happens next is not something that your personal will can control." ”

"What you're trying to say is that the two of us work together"

Ouyang Lin nodded.

Jiang Xuehan sneered: "One more of you can't change anything, I believe you can also see that my strength is more than a little bit stronger than you." ”

Ouyang Lin nodded and said, "Aren't we talking about the conditions, you can make a request, as long as I can do it, I can promise you, and you just need to give me a ride by the way." ”

"Let me ask you a question first, why do immortal cultivators in the spirit realm lose the key in the mortal world, there are a total of how many keys there are, aren't they afraid that you cultivators will use the key to open the entrance to the spirit realm one day?"

“……”

Ouyang looked at Jiang Xuehan in surprise, and asked hesitantly, "Didn't you see that scene back then?"

Jiang Xuehan's heart froze, it turned out that Ouyang Lin regarded her as a person like himself.

"You just answer my question, why is there so much nonsense. ”

Ouyang Qing cleared his throat, took a sip of the teacup, and said in a deep voice: "There is only one key lost in the mortal world, immortal cultivators will not easily lose the key, that was the last time I saw immortal cultivators, the moment they stepped into the spiritual realm, before they could take back the key, a strong air flow rushed out from the spiritual realm, and the explosive air wave knocked the key away, and the seven jade beads fell to different places like meteors...... I think something probably happened in the spirit realm, and it was probably a bad thing, after all, I never heard from the immortal cultivators again, they asked me to monitor the anomalies in the mortal world, and I couldn't convey it to them in time. ”

"I see. ”

Ouyang Lin continued: "I also tried to search for the key back then, but it was too difficult. ”

"Well, it's really not easy, so let's talk about this deal after all the jade beads are in hand. ”

Ouyang Lin held the teacup in his hand, lowered his eyes and thought for a moment, and said with a smile: "Yes, I hope you think about it." ”
