It would be nice to be able to get some compensation for the benefits.

\tEven if it doesn't work, he has to think of ways to instigate the two sides to continue fighting, no matter which side is unlucky, Ke Laosan feels that he is avenging his brother who died in vain.

\tAs a result, before Ke Laosan saw Master Qin, he was unlucky enough to meet the eighth elder of the Xia family.

Seeing that he appeared near Master Qin's residence, covered in embarrassment and wounded, the Eighth Elder was suspicious, so he coaxed him to his place in a few words.

\t Ke Laosan knew that the head of the Xia family was in the family, and he had a deep grudge against Xia Jiang, and he always wanted to find trouble with him to drive him away, so he thought he had found an alliance, and said that he was instructed by Master Qin a few days ago to attack Xia Jiang and his party at night under Panlong Mountain.

\t They were busy dealing with Hong Shu's pursuit at the time, and they didn't see the situation on Xia Jiang and Xia Jiao's side, but it was enough.

Ke Laosan didn't want the Xia family to think that they were incompetent, and he didn't want to say that Hong Shu had a large number of medium spirit runes in his hands, for fear of scaring the head of the Xia family, so that they didn't dare to continue to deal with Xia Jiang and the others.

\tSo he tried his best to boast about Hong Shu's power, saying that he didn't look like an acquired eighth-layer martial artist at all, but like an innate level powerhouse.

The eighth elder was suspicious in his heart, and while stabilizing Ke Laosan, he asked the head of the family, Xia Gu, to discuss the matter.

\tXia Gu also knew about Master Qin's finding Fuhu Sanying to deal with Xia Jiang, he pretended not to know, and hoped that they could make some "achievements", but he didn't expect them to lose so badly.

\tHe also didn't believe that Hong Shu alone had the strength to wipe out Fuhu Sanying and the helpers they invited, and there must be fraud in this matter!

So he arrested Ke Laosan and tortured him to extract a confession, and within a few clicks, Ke Laosan was all recruited.

\t Nothing else, he kept saying that Hong Shu had an "inexhaustible medium spirit rune" in his hand, which really scared Xia Gu and the Eighth Elder enough.

Although Xia Gu was ruthless and stingy, he was also a cautious and indecisive person, and as soon as he heard that the mysterious spirit master behind Xia Jiang was so powerful, he immediately dispelled the idea of dealing with Xia Jiang in the near future.

\tFor fear that Xia Jiang would unite with the mysterious spirit master and attack him through the matter of Fuhu Sanying, Xia Gu even ordered the Eighth Elder to destroy Ke Laosan's body, lest he be caught as the only remaining witness.

After this battle, Xia Gu temporarily restrained his arrogance, and Xia Jiang and Xia Jiao unexpectedly lived a relatively peaceful life.

\tTime flies, and it's another three years......

On a cold winter morning, the north wind swirls and whistles in the empty streets and alleys, as if it can penetrate all obstacles and blow straight into the cracks of everyone's bones.

\tIn the library building of the Xia family compound in the south of Liuli City, Xia Jiao closed the last book in front of him, stretched his somewhat stiff muscles, and took out a small white porcelain stove from his arms and opened it.

There was no half-star charcoal fire in the furnace, only a small piece of paper emitting a faint residual heat.

\tXia Jiaoshu stretched out her delicate eyebrows, pushed open the window to look at the sky outside, and whispered to herself with satisfaction: "It seems that the improvement has been successful, this flame talisman can just last for three days, I am really a genius!"

\tIf anyone saw it clearly at this moment, the paper talisman in the white porcelain furnace that was about to turn to ashes at any time would definitely be shocked—it was clearly a spirit rune! And it was a rare medium spirit rune in the legal fighting world!

\tIn the law fighting world where spirit masters are scarce, spirit runes have never been something that ordinary cultivators can afford to use casually, and Xia Jiao, a little girl, actually used them as charcoal for heating without cherishing them!

What's even more strange is that the flame charm, which is known for its violence, has become a tepid "warmth charm" for some reason.

\tThe spirit master who can do this, at least in the legal fighting world, has never appeared.

In the past few years, Xia Jiao has not wasted her time, relying on the gift from Hongtang, she has drawn a high-level spirit rune.

\tIn the process of painting high-level spirit runes, more true qi is consumed, and the urging and guiding effect of the true qi in her body is also greater, and the problem of her cultivation speed slowing down can be regarded as a temporary solution.

\tXia Jiao changed to painting high-level spirit runes while taking pills and consuming spirit beads to cultivate.

\tTwo years ago, she finally broke through to the third layer of the day after tomorrow. Now just wait for the accumulation of true qi to be enough, and take the Realm Breaking Pill, you can try to impact the fourth layer of the day after tomorrow.

\t reciprocated the favor, and after discussing with Xia Jiao, he promised to supply Hongtang with twenty high-grade spirit runes every month. Relatively speaking, Hongtang was responsible for supplying Xia Jiao with a large amount of Lingxi paper and Yunhuo ink.

\tHongtang has no opinion on this, compared to the huge benefits brought by the high-level spirit runes, these materials are only a small amount, and the conditions can be negotiated with the branch of the upper realm of Hongtang, and the goods can be transferred.

Drawing the runes was not challenging for Xia Jiao, so she began to study the comparisons, the similarities and differences of the spirit patterns on different runes, looking for patterns, and then trying to change them to make the runes more "suitable".

For example, like the current one, changing the flame charm that bursts into a fierce flame in an instant to a "warm charm" that heats up slowly and lasts for a full three days, and puts it in the stove to carry with you, and you don't need to change the charcoal fire, which is simply a must-have for home travel.

\'s just such a good product, and there are few cultivators in the Law Fighting Realm who can afford it, let alone ordinary people.

\t packed up the stacked books around him, and took one last look at the rows of towering bookshelves in the library building, Xia Jiao picked up the basket containing dry food and miscellaneous items, and walked outside the library building.

\tThe ancestor of the Xia family broke through more than half a year ago, and his old age and decay combined with the failure of the impact on the congenital realm, although the old man seemed to have nothing wrong, but the inside was already exhausted, and it was not far from the time limit.

\tXia Jiang and Xia Jiao's father, Xia Ren, were taken care of by their ancestors back then, and the relationship between Xia Jiang and their ancestors was even closer to father and son, so for most of the past six months, Xia Jiang took Xia Jiao back to the Xia family's old house.

In addition to the monthly transactions with Hongtang and the important tasks of dealing with the Coral City Xia Ji business, Xia Jiang and Xia Jiao spend most of their time in the courtyard of their ancestors, taking care of and accompanying the elder nearby.

\tDuring this period of time, Xia Jiao read all the books and volumes in the Xia family's library building, and remembered them clearly, but unfortunately there were very few words about the spirit master.

\tOccasionally, there are one or two notes mentioning the spirit master, and that kind of description is more like imagination and bragging in Xia Jiao's opinion.

As for the exercises and the like, the grade was far inferior to the ones Xia Jiang taught her, and she couldn't look down on them.

\tOccasionally, there are one or two exercise cheats that are quite distinctive, but unfortunately they all take the masculine and violent route, Xia Jiao's weak physique, before the exercises are refined, the meridians will burst and die.

Fortunately, there are also a large number of books on ores, herbs, beasts and even fierce beasts in the library, many of which are illustrated and illustrated, explaining the characteristics and usefulness of these things very clearly, which has benefited her a lot.

\t She dared to say that if she was put in any barren mountains and mountains now, she would be able to find out all the valuable things on the mountain as soon as possible, of course, provided that her life was safe and secure, and she would not encounter any poisonous snakes, poisonous insects, and man-eating beasts.

\tThe Xia family started in a place like Liulicheng, which is close to the deep mountains and dense forests, and most of the ancestors were hunters, so they naturally paid special attention to the collection of records of this kind of knowledge.

\tXia Jiao let out a long sigh of relief, and wrote down all the contents of the books in the entire library building, which was still very fulfilling, and there was no need to come in the future.

The ancestor's body was weakening day by day, and Grandpa Jiang thought of a lot of ways, and even asked Tuo Hongtang's steward to find a lot of precious life-prolonging pills, but the effect was still not obvious.

\tIf the old ancestor is gone, Grandpa Jiang will probably take her away from the Xia family and also from Coral City.

\tEvery five years, important disciples from all the secret places of the legal fighting world will appear together to hold a talent conference and openly select and recruit new disciples.

The next Fellowship Conference will be held in the middle of next year.

\tThis is a grand event every five years, if Xia Jiao misses this time, and goes to participate next time, he will have to wait until he is nineteen years old, and it will be even more difficult to be selected if he is older.

\tIf she can break through the fourth layer of the day after tomorrow before the conference, she should have a relatively good chance of being selected and becoming a disciple of the secret land.

According to the information that Xia Jiang knew, in those secret places in the Law Fighting Realm, not only was there a lot of spiritual energy, and a large number of rare elixirs were planted, but there were also various exercise secrets from the Upper Realm sects, and many elixirs that were hard to find in the outside world, such as the Realm Breaking Pill and the like, all came from various secret places.

\tXia Jiao has only eaten the pill as a meal all these years, and the idle Qi Condensation Pill and the like are no longer of much use to her, if she wants to continue to cultivate, only by joining one of the secret places and getting more higher-level pill exercises can there be hope.

\tXia Jiang has traveled in the upper realm and even the holy realm for many years, and there are some powerful exercises in her hands, but none of them are really suitable for Xia Jiao's weak physique, so she can only be sent to the secret place to try her luck.

\tXia Jiao was thinking about his thoughts, and when he walked out of the library building, he was blown by the oncoming north wind, and couldn't help but shudder and shrink his neck.

She habitually saluted the fifth master of the Xia family, who was guarding the library, said early, and walked to the courtyard of the old ancestor.

Fifth Master Xia glanced at her, shook his head and continued to meditate in front of the building with his eyes closed.

\tXia's library building is famous for its rich collection in Liuli City, including miscellaneous books of ordinary mortals, as well as martial arts practitioners' exercises and notes, and many categories of data atlases collected by the children of the Xia family when they were wandering outside, etc., although the level is not high, but the amount is large.

The children of the Xia family have the opportunity to enter the library once a month, and they can stay for up to three days, and all books are only allowed to be copied and not borrowed.

\tMost people take the time to find one or two books that interest them, copy them and take them away.

For most of the past six months, Xia Jiao has been visiting the library every month, and she will never come out until she stays for three days, but she has never looked at it without copying it, and she has seen it quickly, and she doesn't know if she has seen it.

\tHer strange behavior had already attracted the attention of Fifth Master Xia, but he was too lazy to care.

\tWhat is the use of reading more and faster?
