Everyone decided that the fat man was fully responsible for the Yuntian business, and the fat man took it as a matter of course, sitting on the side with a pen and constantly writing and drawing, quite seriously.

However, after a while, he suddenly raised his head and looked at Xiao Jiu and said, "Boss, you have to tell me something, otherwise I won't be able to think about things with peace of mind!"

"Hehe~!, do you still want to know about your father?"

"Tell me, because my head hurts!"

Everyone was also very interested in this, and they all raised their heads to look at Xiao Jiu.

"Hmph, can I suffocate if I don't tell you?"

"You can't hold it back, but you can go crazy!"

So Xiao Jiu told him how he 'fooled' Shangguan Zhentian's process.

"Cow, boss, you're a cow!"

Everyone laughed for a while, and then went about their own business according to the plan.

Ten days later, with the efforts of the fat man, the 'Yuntian Firm' was officially opened.

Under the auspices of the fat man and the help of the Shangguan family, the ceremony was lively and grand, and the entire backing town almost moved, after all, Xiao Jiu is also a celebrity now, and he is not afraid of the existence of the Shangguan family!

In the following time, Yuntian business was operated by the fat man very prosperously, and the scale continued to expand, and there was a tendency to become the first business in the backing town.

Now that they have relatively sufficient cultivation resources and advanced exercises, the strength of everyone is also steadily improving.

Xiao Jiu's strength was repeatedly suppressed by him, but he still reached the ninefold peak of the martial master realm, and there was only a line of separation from the grandmaster realm.

And the strength of Mu Qianyu and the others is also growing rapidly, except for the fat man who is slightly behind the triple peak of the martial arts realm, everyone else has reached the quadruple peak of the warrior realm.

However, Xiao Jiu has been feeling uneasy recently, because the old man has been gone for more than a month, but he has not heard from him yet, so he can't help but be secretly worried in his heart.

One day, Xiao Jiu and others were suddenly invited by Shangguan Zhentian to their home as guests. During the banquet, Shangguan Zhentian told everyone that after the 15th, Fengnan County will hold a rookie competition under the age of 16, and the registration conditions are under the age of 16 and the strength of the samurai realm is above six, and asked everyone if they are interested in participating.

Xiao Jiu's heart couldn't help but move when he heard the news, and he said in his heart, "It's really time for this big competition to come, and I'm thinking about how to experience it!"

Next, Shangguan Zhentian introduced some of the situation of Dabi in Fengnan County.

The Fengnan Rookie Contest is held every five years. Each family's sphere of influence can have a maximum of ten registration places, and the Shangguan family in Backing Mountain Town will be allocated ten places for the last time this time. The reason is that, according to the registration rules of Dabi, if the number of applicants cannot be made up for three consecutive sessions, the number of applicants will be reduced, and the number of registrations will be subject to the average number of registrations of the three sessions.

Due to its remote and sparsely populated location, it is still the closest place to the Beast Domain, coupled with the situation on the mainland in the past ten years, the Beast Domain has continuously eroded the territory of the continent, and the living conditions are relatively poor, resulting in the continuous loss of cultivators.

The number of applicants for the first two sessions of the Guishan Town was six and five respectively, and if the number of registrations for this session is not enough, the Shangguan family of the backing town will become the target of the reduction, and the number of reductions is quite a lot, nearly half.

At the same time, there are also various resources allocated to the Shangguan family, so the Shangguan family is very anxious, and there are only four Shangguan brothers and sisters in the family who meet the registration conditions, and it would be good if other big families could make up one or two.

"Tianshao, I won't tell you a secret! Hehe~! The first two times the Shangguan family has become the target of ridicule from other families, and my old face has no place to rest! If we can't get it together this time, not only will it be a problem of not being able to afford to lose people, but our Shangguan family will also suffer a heavy blow!"

Xiao Jiu listened to Shangguan Zhentian's complaints, his eyes rolled, he thought about it, and said: "Well~! The head of the Shangguan family is in trouble, we must help, this is incumbent!"

Shangguan Zhentian was overjoyed when he heard this, and thanked him again and again.

"However, we ——!" Xiao Jiu said with a look of embarrassment on his face, deliberately slurring.

"There are few things to do, but it doesn't hurt to talk about it, if there is any difficulty, my Shangguan Zhentian will definitely help!"

"Hehe! Shangguan family master, then you're welcome! Look! We went to participate in the big competition on behalf of the family, and we had to fight fiercely, but we didn't even have the most basic equipment, this is not suitable! Also, if there is a 'horse stirrup short', we also need to heal!"

Shangguan Zhentian couldn't help but secretly complain, and said in his heart that your mysterious identity can still lack equipment?

"Haha! Tian Shao is extremely worried! Don't worry, I will definitely prepare the equipment for you according to your strength! Then each person will have a healing pill of the same level, what do you see?"

Shangguan Zhentian said that his flesh hurt for a while.

"Almost! And ——!"

"And, more?"

"Hehe! There is another thing, that is, can you match a pair of inner armor for Miss Xia Yurou? You see a delicate little girl, for ——!."

"Okay, good, I'm worthy, I'm worthy!" After speaking, he looked at Xiao Jiu, for fear that he would put forward any more conditions.

Xiao Jiu smiled and didn't say anything more.

On the side, the fat man looked straight at his teeth, and said in his heart, 'Boss, you even cheat my father!'

The dinner was also enjoyed by the guests and the hosts, and they each achieved their goals, and after the banquet, the fat man sent Xiao Jiu and the others out.

The fat man looked at Xiao Jiudao with resentment: "Boss, you are a 'pit father'! Oh! No, it is my dad! Your 'goose plucking' style, is it a pity for him not to do business?"

"Hehe, fatty, don't complain, I'm thinking about our 'small group'! Also, hurry up and find your father to ask for our things, and I won't need my share on the counter and sell it!"

"Hiccup~! Originally, you and your sister are also members of our group, and I originally planned to ask for another share to be added to the public treasury for you, but then I thought about how to say that it was also a family! Give me a 'family price', so I got a 20% discount! Tell your father that you don't have to thank you too much!" Xiao Jiu said with a full burp while picking his teeth.

The fat man really wanted to cry without tears when he heard it, and the others wanted to laugh but didn't dare to laugh, so it was quite uncomfortable!

Xiao Jiu returned home, thinking about Dabi's affairs, and he didn't know what the martial arts level of Fengnan County was like, so he had to find Shangguan Zhentian to inquire another day.

However, at the level of Xiao Jiu, it is already difficult to advance an inch only by relying on the thin aura cultivation of the outside world, and it will require a lot of cultivation resources to further improve in the future. At the same time, he also had to take into account the cultivation of the 'Soul Refining Nine Secrets', which gave him a headache because there was no environment with sufficient soul power, and this kind of soul refining technique would be difficult to improve at all.

In the dead of night, Xiao Jiu, as usual, lit the 'Soul Nourishing Incense', took out two pieces of top-grade Xuanjing Jade and held them in his hands, and began to try the 'Soul Martial Arts Double Cultivation'.

With the simultaneous operation of the 'Soul Refining Ninefold Technique' and his own martial arts exercises, the superb Xuanjing Jade in his hand was slowly vaporizing, turning into an incomparably pure spiritual energy into the body, flowing through the meridians of the whole body, turning into his own spiritual power, and storing it in the dantian.

When these pure spiritual qi entered the head meridians, it made the soul extremely active, increasing the extraction of the soul power from the outside world, and the soul power within a hundred miles was extracted by it, and the soul power liquid in the soul sea was also slowly increasing.

The next day, Xiao Jiu felt refreshed, and he had endless energy, so he hurriedly 'looked inside his body' to check the effect of his cultivation.

It doesn't matter if you look at it, you can't help but be surprised. It turned out that after a night of cultivation, the spiritual power in the dantian had reached the peak of the martial artist realm, and it was constantly impacting the barrier of the grandmaster realm.

Looking at the soul sea again, the soul power liquid has also increased a lot, and the exploration range of soul power has also reached about ten zhang.

"Huh~!Could it be that his 'Soul and Martial Dual Cultivation' method has worked, or is it the reason for the 'Superb Xuanjing Jade'? It should be because of the combination of the two! I didn't have such an effect when I practiced alone before!"

Xiao Jiu was ecstatic to find a new method of cultivation.

"Ahem~!"

Just when he was rejoicing, a few coughs suddenly came from the courtyard, Xiao Jiu couldn't help but be overjoyed, and he had to jump down from the kang and rush out of the room.

"Old man, you're back, you're worried about me!"

The old man stroked Xiao Jiu's head lovingly and said, "Hehe! miss me!"

Xiao Jiu's eyes were red, he held back his tears, looked at the old man's face full of dust, and with endless exhaustion, his voice was slightly choked: "I'm tired, I'll talk about it when I go into the house to rest!"

The old man then entered the house, and Xiao Jiu looked at the old man's rickety figure from behind, and quickly wiped a handful of tears from his eyes.

Xiao Jiu asked the old man to sit on the chair, and he also moved a chair to sit next to him.

"Huh~?Kid, you're in good health!What's going on, tell me quickly!Haha, yes, you've actually reached the peak of the martial arts realm, and you're about to break through, and your foundation is also very strong——!!

Before the old man finished speaking, he coughed.

"I'm sorry old man, that man won't let me reveal any information about him! So—" Xiao Jiu said in embarrassment.

"Haha, don't say it, don't say it! As long as your body is better!"

"Old man, leave me alone, why do you keep coughing!" Xiao Jiu asked nervously.

"It's okay! This time I went out, I was targeted by the secret guards of the imperial palace, and I was a little injured! I went around in a big circle before I got rid of them, so I was delayed for more than ten days!"

"Are you injured, where are the injuries?"

"Hehe~! Look at you, I'm in a hurry! If I'm seriously injured, can I still sit here and talk? But when they find out my traces, it's really troublesome! This is not a place to stay for a long time!"

"Didn't you get rid of them? Can they still find this place?"

"You don't understand, those people are like hunting dogs, I dare to conclude that in less than a month they will follow my breath to find here!

"No, no, then we can't just walk together, why do you have to part with me!"

And on the way back, the entire southern part of the continent is looking for a teenager and a woman, and they are definitely searching for your mother and son, they seem to have locked up the southern region, isn't there anyone from the backing town?"

"Oh~!I heard the fat man's father talk about this, but we happened to be not at home at the time, and he prevaricated!"

"Oops~!I'm scared to death! I've been worried about it all the way! As long as you don't meet those people, otherwise your appearance will arouse their suspicion, after all, you look too similar to your father!"

Xiao Jiu was also afraid for a while when he heard it, he was arrested for a small time, and the truth of his father's fall was completely sunk into the sea!

"What should I do, after all, you still have to walk on the mainland in the future!" the old man was so anxious that he turned in circles.

"Haha, there you have it, it's really a fan of the authorities!" the old man patted his head and suddenly burst out laughing.
