Chapter 35 Hidden Dangers Appear
With Xiao Yue's successful breakthrough, the sky at this time had gradually broken down, and the pale cyan sky was inlaid with a few remnant stars. The quiet earth was hazy, like a light veil shrouded in silver-gray.
Xiao Lin and the others who were guarding the door were all sitting cross-legged, closing their eyes and staying motionless, like sculptures, but they did not enter the cultivation state, and at this time, all their minds were in the door, and they could not meditate with peace of mind.
"Old patriarch, patriarch, elders!"
The sudden sound in the slightly silent courtyard made Xiao Zhan and the three elders open their eyes one after another and look at the comer. But I saw a clear figure slowly walking into the hospital with a slight footstep, and saluted respectfully to Xiao Lin and the others.
"Butler Mo, what's the matter?"
Although he had already ordered his subordinates not to enter this courtyard without being summoned, the Mo steward in front of him, who had served the Xiao family for many years and had won the trust of the high-level, was obviously not among them.
But even so, with the other party's eyes, if it weren't for something important, I was afraid that he wouldn't take the initiative to come in and disturb him.
Thinking of this, not only Xiao Zhan and a few people, Xiao Lin also slowly opened his eyes, nodded at Steward Mo, and asked the reason.
The Mo family had a humble attitude, and said in a slightly uncalm tone towards Xiao Lin: "Old Patriarch Qiqi, there is already definite news about the Dark Attribute High-level Exercises that you asked me to pay attention to. Half an hour ago, Mr. Zhao Peng of the Temir Auction House sent someone to inform him that two months later, the Imperial Capital Temir Auction Headquarters would hold a large-scale auction fair. It has been confirmed that there will be earthly class dark attribute exercises at that time!"
"What...... Ground level exercises!"
When Xiao Zhan and the three elders heard this, they immediately stood up, their faces stunned, and even the Great Elder, who had always been calm, couldn't help but exclaim.
It's no wonder they are so surprised, after all, it is a thing of this level that has not appeared in the Gamma Empire for many years, and it is almost a legendary existence.
And even if there is, it must be treasured by those big forces, and it is difficult for ordinary people to see it at all.
And you must know that with their family's hundreds of years of heritage, having the highest level of exercises is only at the intermediate level of the Xuan Rank, so they can't help but shake their hearts.
Not to mention them, in fact, even Xiao Lin couldn't help but tremble when he heard the words "Ground Level Exercises", and felt unexpectedly surprised. He was originally worried that Xiao Yue would face the trouble of having no high-level exercises available after being promoted to fighter, and he might have to have no choice but to use low-level exercises and waste his potential. But ****** suddenly came such a good news, which made him a little incredible, and secretly sighed that Xiao Yue was lucky.
But then he frowned again, and while he was happy for his disciple, he was faintly solemn in his heart.
Because the rarity of the earth-level exercises can no longer be measured by money alone, its value, even if it is a volume of Xuan-level advanced exercises, it may not necessarily be compared.
Because it is so precious, there must be no shortage of forces and strong people who pay attention to it, even if they don't need it for the time being, the value of collecting it is not small. And with the strength of the Xiao family, if you want to pull your teeth, the difficulty is not ordinarily huge.
Don't look at the Xiao family, although in the past year because of the windfall profits of the earth-shaking thunder, there has been a faint trend of developing towards the nouveau riche, but when it comes to the real background, I am afraid that it is not even comparable to an ordinary imperial high-ranking family.
"It seems that I can only ask that old friend for help!" Xiao Lin took a few steps back and forth, and suddenly smiled bitterly, and said helplessly.
Then he continued to admonish Xiao Zhan and the others: "Regarding the matter of this earth-level exercise, don't tell Xiao Yezi for the time being, after all, whether you can get it or not is one thing, if you can't get it at that time, you can save him a happy time!"
"Understood, old patriarch..."
"Got it, Father!"
Xiao Zhan and the others also understood the key, looked at each other, nodded their heads, and responded in a deep voice.
"Squeak..."
The wooden door of the quiet room was suddenly opened, causing Xiao Lin and the others in the courtyard to be stunned for a moment, and then they all turned their heads to the door, with a look of expectation.
The door opened, and Xiao Yue's young figure walked out slowly with a calm step, and the hazy sunlight shone on him looking extremely holy, shining like a holy son.
"Success!" Although Xiao Lin was at the door, his tone was extremely affirmative, with his Dou Ling's eyesight, Xiao Yue couldn't hide it from him at all.
"Yes, teacher!" Xiao Yue nodded slightly.
When the words fell, Xiao Zhan and the others suddenly smiled from ear to ear, looking at Xiao Yue's eyes full of relief, even Xiao Lin was also full of smiles at this time, and nodded with relief.
"Hehe, good, very good, Xiao Yezi, you really didn't disappoint us, the fighter who is less than ten years old, it's crazy to think about it, the rise of the family is just around the corner, I just hope to be able to witness this scene in my lifetime!" the Great Elder sighed lightly and sighed with emotion.
"Yes, yes!" the second elder heard this, and hurriedly answered and nodded.
Xiao Yue didn't say anything about this, but under her calm appearance, her eyes were a little complicated.
"Very good!But Xiao Yezi, don't be in a hurry to cultivate the cultivation exercises after the fighter, I have now obtained a set of news about the Xuan-level dark attribute exercises, I will try to see if I can get it, so if it is not necessary, don't lightly cultivate low-level exercises." Xiao Lin suddenly spoke, not mentioning the matter of the earth-level exercises.
"Hmm... Yes teacher!" Hearing this, Xiao Yue nodded hurriedly in response, and secretly rejoiced in his heart, he himself attaches more importance to the exercises than anyone else, and of course he will not be sloppy and contemptuous.
"Okay, break through overnight, you must be tired too, go back and rest first!" Xiao Lin saw that he listened to his advice, nodded with satisfaction, and then spoke.
"Then the teacher, and the elders, the kid will leave first!" Xiao Yue was indeed a little tired, so she didn't shirk it, and bowed to a few people and retreated.
Seeing that Xiao Yue had already left, Xiao Lin turned his head to a few people with deep worry in his eyes and said, "Don't be busy with happiness first, think about the hostile forces of our Xiao family, and the fact that Xiao Yezi was almost killed half a year ago." Do you think that if the news of Xiao Yezi's breakthrough through the fighter spreads, will he still survive?
What's more, don't forget how the Xiao family was driven out of Zhongzhou in the first place, do you think that terrifying existence knows that we have the potential to threaten them, and will let us go? Don't be too optimistic, they may already be ready to start making a move!"
When the words fell, the air seemed to be frozen, and everyone present shivered in unison, their expressions were unusually ugly, as Xiao Lin said, the matter was over.
Seeing that the atmosphere was a little solemn, Xiao Lin chuckled again and said, "Okay, don't be too pessimistic, it's a blessing or a curse, and you can't avoid it." If that storage zài really wants to do it, we can't do anything but wait for death. And let's not forget that there is another equally good being, who secretly supports us, and if they still miss the old love, they will definitely not sit idly by when they want to come!"
Hearing this, Xiao Zhan and the elders and others were all relieved, and Xiao Zhan said even more angrily: "That's right, we haven't broken off contact with that family for all these years, and I also got news from there a while ago, it is said that a certain high-ranking person over there wants to entrust his children to our Xiao family for a period of time." I don't know why, but if something really happens in the future, they won't ignore it!"
"Hmm, so the only thing we have to do now is to completely block the news of Xiao Yezi's breakthrough to the fighter, and no news can be revealed. You must remember for me, if any of you reveal a little bit of tone, then don't blame Lao Tzu for killing all the people involved, even my son!" Xiao Lin said indifferently, his words full of thick death threats.
Xiao Zhan and the three elders were stunned for a moment, knowing that he was not joking, and while smiling bitterly in their hearts, they also solemnly responded in unison with a solemn face: "Father... Old patriarch, rest assured!"
………………
"Mother, why are you here?" As soon as I arrived at the door, I saw Zhao Yi leaning on the threshold, Xiao Yue was stunned, her heart was warm, and she hurriedly stepped forward and smiled.
"Hmm... It's good, let's go and rest early after eating!" Seeing Xiao Yue coming back, Zhao Yi saw his relaxed state and knew that he would be successful, so he didn't ask anything, just nodded lightly, and got up and entered the room with an indifferent face.
"Uh... What's going on?" Zhao Yi's abnormal attitude made Xiao Yue a little baffled, seeing that the other party was obviously waiting for him all night just now, but after seeing him, he was so cold, what the hell was going on, and there was a faint feeling of something bad in his heart.
Walking back to the room casually, the joy of the fighter who had just broken through seemed to fade a lot.
Xiao Yue didn't plan to cultivate today, anyway, he had already broken through, and he should combine work and rest, and he couldn't strain his nerves too much, he planned to sleep well today and rest for a day.
But just as he suddenly walked to the door of the room, he suddenly fell into a stun. His face turned pale, his palms couldn't help but cover his mouth, and then a suppressed cough came out.
Half-loud, as the coughing stopped, he slowly took his hand away, looking at the scarlet blood in his palm, his face suddenly became extremely ugly.
"Damn, what's going on, it stands to reason that it shouldn't have been so fast, could it be that I carelessly ignored something! This "Absolute Life Formula" is really getting weirder and weird!" Pushing the door in and locking it with his hand, Xiao Yue muttered with a gloomy face.
Thinking that he might not have died in the hands of the Soul Clan, nor in the hands of other enemies, but might be played to death by himself, Xiao Yue felt aggrieved, depressed, and helpless.
But it's too late to regret it now, and there is no need for him to regret it, because if it weren't for the Absolute Life Technique, he wouldn't have been able to break through to the Fighter in just one year, let alone become Xiao Lin's disciple, and the family wouldn't have paid so much attention to him now.
"No, we can't wait any longer, there should be news about the ancient river of the Yunlan Sect now, and I have the opportunity to probe Zhao Peng's tone, if the 'Yansheng Pill' has been successfully refined, I must get it no matter what the price is."
In the past few years, in order to secretly explore such things to prolong life, a lot of money has been spent, but there is very little news about this kind of thing, either the price is too high, or the person who owns it is too strong, and even he can't afford to buy it, and he can't afford to offend. Or it's just too far away, it's hard to get it in a short period of time, and there are some gossip that I don't know if it's true or not, alas!
It seems that the easiest thing to get is the 'Yansheng Pill' of Guhe, and this Yunlan Sect must go to it in a short period of time!"
