The middle-aged man looked at Xia Yuan in a daze, he had an elegant temperament, a fluttering green shirt, and a two-foot long hair that showed a bit of a scribe's demeanor, with long sleeves moving without wind, and his inner strength was mixed with.

He is the teacher who adopted Xia Yuan since he was a child-the Sect Master of the Heartless Sword Sect, Zhu Zhenyue.

Zhu Zhenyue and the young man in the snow looked at each other from a distance, he suddenly turned around, and regardless of whether what the two juniors of the Nangong family said was true or not, he took out two pieces of spiritual jade from his arms and stepped forward with a smile.

"The old man is not strict, so the two of them are frightened, and they are not with each other. This jade contains essence, and it only needs to be dissolved with strong qi to absorb it directly.

I want to come to the old man to see the virtuous nephew and the virtuous niece, but I haven't been able to speak, and now that I have the opportunity, these two pieces of jade should be regarded as a small gift, virtuous nephew, virtuous niece, don't shirk it. ”

Nangong Rong recognized that this was a good thing, so he stepped forward to take it, looked sideways at the young man standing in the snow, and then looked at Zhu Juneng who was kneeling, and finally turned his gaze back to Xia Yuan, and snorted coldly: "Apologize." ”

Xia Yuan's expression was calm, neither angry nor angry.

Zhu Zhenyue closed his eyes in a deep voice and said, "Yuan'er, apologize." ”

Xia Yuan said, "I'm sorry." ”

There was still no anger in his voice, not even a fierce chill, but surprisingly calm.

Zhu Juneng knelt on the ground, a pair of leopard eyes glared fiercely at the two Nangong family, if it weren't for the master's presence, he roared "grass your mother", and then drew his sword and rushed up, the husband was angry, blood splashed three feet, what are you afraid of?

As for the master beating him, he was not angry.

After receiving the gift and hearing the apology, the Nangong Rong brothers and sisters were also satisfied, and they looked as I expected, laughing and said, "Zhu Fatzi, how is it?"

At this time.

A majestic voice came from the hall.

"What happened?"

Zhu Zhenyue turned his head and looked at the golden-robed man who had just come over from the main hall in the hall, and hugged his fists and said, "Elder Nangong, it's nothing, it's just a fight in the child's house." ”

The golden-robed man was naturally waiting on purpose, he walked over and suddenly asked, "Rong'er, what did you say happened?"

Nangong Rong looked at the expression of his family elder, thought about the purpose of coming here, and opened his mouth to come: "Cousin Yuan and I are walking here, and this fat man and that Xia Yuan suddenly insulted us, and they wanted to make a move, so my cousin screamed." ”

He didn't say a word about compensation.

Hearing this, the golden-robed elder glanced at Zhu Zhenyue coldly, and said sharply: "Zhu Palace Master, good ability... Let's go!"

He waved his hand, and four disciples of the Nangong family rushed out from the side hall, and the Nangong Rong brothers and sisters also followed.

Zhu Zhenyue hurriedly stepped forward, "Brother Nangong, misunderstanding, this is a misunderstanding", but after only a few steps, Elder Nangong said directly: "I wish the sect master, there is no need to send it." ”

Moment.

The sect was extremely quiet.

Zhu Zhenyue sighed and wanted to say something, but he still shook his head and looked at Xia Yuan, "Yuan'er, you have been out for four years, and when you come back, you will take care of your heart, be more stable as soon as possible, and the master and mother will rest assured of you."

Maybe you think that Master's performance just now is too weak, but now the situation is special, the Nangong family is picking bones in eggs, hoping that we will have conflicts with them, and Master's weakness is also for the sake of Xuegong. ”

At this time, a graceful figure in white walked out, this woman was Xia Yuan's sister-Zhu Zhenyue's wife, Ning Xiaoran.

She stood beside Xia Yuan and said, "Lao Zhu, don't say it again, Yuan'er finally came back, you are ruthless, and you are willing to let him freeze outside." ”

Zhu Zhenyue smiled bitterly and sighed heavily, who would understand how heavy the burden of the lord of the first palace is?

Xia Yuan said softly, "I'm sorry, Master. ”

Zhu Zhenyue raised his hand: "Okay, you and I don't have to be like this, it's just that the situation is complicated now, and you haven't been clear outside, that is, just at the top of the cliff to collect your heart, watch the situation, don't say a word, and raise this belly pattern, and stay in the future, if you have the opportunity, the master will come to test you."

Go back to the house to warm up, get ready, and go up the mountain tomorrow when the snow stops. The affairs of the Nangong family will be handled by the master. ”

...

...

Next.

"Senior brother, in fact, I don't blame the master, the Taishang Sect Master was killed by the people of the Demon Sect, and the master and the master have only just entered the Heavenly Sealing Realm, and it is not easy for them. ”

"Yes, senior brother, I heard that the Nangong family has the background of the court of the East China Sea Kingdom, and for some reason, the court seems to want to meddle in the affairs of the rivers and lakes, and in my five university palaces on Chiyue Mountain, there are also people who are willing to cooperate...

The people don't fight with the officials, although they fight alone, the generals of those imperial courts may not be the opponents of the master and the master, but if the troops are sent, 2,000 elite soldiers are enough to encircle and suppress us. ”

"Senior brother, don't worry, I will come to bring you food every day. The little junior sister poked out her cute head, "By the way, senior brother, where have you been ridiculous in the past four years?"

"Senior brother, I remember that the master didn't allow you to drink, and you ran away in a fit of anger, isn't that the case? ”

Xia Yuan looked at the group of junior brothers and sisters, and smiled: "It's nothing, I can't figure out something, so I went on a trip by myself." ”

Little junior sister: "Senior brother, if you don't understand something, you can tell me, you see, I have everything in mind to tell you." ”

Xia Yuan laughed, "Wait for you to go up the mountain to deliver food, and I'll talk to you slowly." ”

The little junior sister's apricot eyes lit up: "Hmm!"

...

As the winter deepened, the snow began to fall again, and when I looked down on the world from a great height, I saw that the mountains were like swords, and the snow dragons were rolling with the wind, roaring and swimming among the mountains.

The mountain steps have long been impossible to climb.

The younger brothers and sisters also seemed to be worried about this early, so they transported a lot of food to the top of the mountain in advance and stored it in the cave of the Blue Sky Cliff.

The winding path has long been flooded by heavy snow, and there is no ten days and a half months that cannot be dissolved, and even if it does, it is necessary to wait before going up the mountain, and it is often the case in the north as soon as winter comes.

Cliff tops.

Xia Yuan should have shrunk in the cave, sat in front of the door, and looked at the distance, the white sky between heaven and earth, as the master said, "Collect your heart, recuperate, and be stable as soon as possible."

But.

At this time, there was no one in the cave...

Xia Yuan is gone.

When everyone thought he should be at the top of the blue cliff, he disappeared and no one knew where he was.

The sky was full of wind and snow.

Nangong's family is a first-class family in Tianou City, at this time, because the head of the family has been reused by the court, so the bronze door has doubled, and two stone lions that are more than a foot high are located in front of the door, which looks very powerful.

Under the eaves, the red light is hanging, and the four words "Nangong Family" inscribed by the Son of Heaven of the East China Sea Kingdom, the dragon flying and the phoenix dancing, and Xuan He is abnormal.

In the wind and snow, many businessmen, wealthy families, and even local government officials in Tianou City were flowing between the bronze gates.

There are no white dings in the exchanges, they are all rich and noble, but that's it.

Two tall and sturdy guards held their swords and stood on both sides like door gods, and they could only enter after receiving the invitation stickers.

But at this moment, a young man wrapped in a black cloak appeared from the darkness at the end of the road, and he walked to the gate in the wind and snow, and the two guards did not seem to see him.

In the eyes of the two of them, it seemed that there was no such person at all, allowing him to walk up the steps, follow the footprints of others, and step forward, so stepping on them, the footprints completely overlapped with others', and it was impossible to distinguish.

He walked into the mansion of the Nangong family so openly, and then walked out along the main road, which seemed to be extremely familiar, and the strange thing was that along the way, there were many maids and guards, and even disciples of the family, and they came and went in a hurry, but no one saw him.

He went around the main hall, entered the inner door, walked directly to a large house on the east side, pulled the hood of the black-clad cloak to completely cover the part above the bridge of his nose, and stood in front of the door.

In the door, the head of the Nangong family was discussing with the three elders.

“...... If my Nangong family can take advantage of this imperial court's fortune, they have to behave well. ”

"The head of the family, the imperial court may not be using our family to fight the outpost with the school palace, I think there are still many families who have not corresponded, why us?"

"Three Elders, this is their short-sightedness, let's not talk about this for now. This time, we have to take advantage of the contradictions in the Five Mountains Academy Palace and let them consume each other.

And the second elder did a good job in going to the Wuxin School Palace this time, although I wish Zhenyue's old turtle can bear it, he was still found a flaw... Well done!

Let's discuss below, how to make this Wushan School Palace friction, maybe the new Wuxin School Palace disciple is an opportunity, that hairy boy looks impetuous. ”

The three elders and the head of the family immediately discussed, you say a word to me.

Probably to support a family, in the name of unifying the Wushan School Palace to cause them to fight, since the Wuxin School Palace gave a reason to do it, then take them under the knife, and when it was almost consumed, the Five Palaces were included in the strength of the Nangong family, and they took away their ancestral skills.

The so-called exercises are not simply a booklet, the earth lock realm contains at least the force operation diagram, visualization diagram, and prescription.

And the Heavenly Seal Realm contains the Divine Vein Operation Diagram, Mental Method, Prescription and so on.

Each exercise is composed of dozens of volumes, and it is very difficult to cultivate, as for the kind of "peerless divine skill" that a booklet says, it is just a small means of reckless self-deception in the rivers and lakes.

Only when you step into the ground lock and break the shackles of your body can you truly enter the martial arts and become a... Students.

Do-do...

On a snowy night, there was a knock on the door.

The head of the Nangong family raised his voice and said, "Fourth Elder, it's early, come in." ”

The other three elders didn't think about it.

Because although the Nangong family is not Longtan Tiger's Den, it is impossible for anyone to enter here silently.

Squeak.

The door was pushed open.

The man in black walked in slowly, gently closed the door with his backhand, and locked it again.

The wind and snow locked the door, and the brazier inside the house was warm in spring.

When the head of the Nangong family saw the man in black, his pupils suddenly contracted, staring at him deadly, and his right hand quickly held the hilt of the sword.

The air was instantly suppressed.

The three Nangong patriarchs, including the Nangong elder who went to the Five Elements Sword Sect a few days ago, all "vacated" the ground, stood up, each holding a long sword, and waited for the battle.

A tense atmosphere suddenly rose.

The head of the Nangong family asked sharply: "How did Your Excellency sneak into my Nangong family silently, and what are you doing here?"

The man in black didn't answer, he came to kill, not to fight, so he just walked forward.

Every step he takes, the momentum around him is a little stronger, and when he stands between the four of them, the momentum has formed a complete sense of oppression, which is a tyrannical murderous aura, like a long mallet wrapped in thick gunpowder smoke on the killing war drums, so that people's hearts can't help but follow his every step, and hit hard, and scream.

The head of the Nangong family and the three elders looked at each other, and suddenly understood that when this person appeared, I am afraid that such a strong murderous aura will not be good.

But now, although this person's murderous aura is strong, he is still at the level of the Heavenly Seal, and he may not be able to fight.

This is the Nangong family, and the first strike is strong.

Suddenly...

Brush Brush Brush Brush!!

Behind each of the four of them, a phantom appeared, and they spared no effort to attack at the same time.

Three rounds of phantoms emerged from behind the three elders, and in an instant, they fused again, and the willow was like a long python, casting out from the hands of the three people, attacking from afar, piercing through the air current, and shooting at the legs, waist, and neck of the man in black respectively.

And the head of the Nangong family burst out with a terrifying heavenly seal coercion, his body flew out like a swift wind, and a famous sword came out of its sheath like a roar, entered his palm, and turned into a "python" that had been condensed with him.

Four rounds of heavenly seals, in an instant, thousands of long willows into giant Jiao!!

Jiao passed, driving the brazier charcoal to stir up, dotted with stars, fiery and dazzling!

The man in black shook his head, and he raised his hand, releasing the restraints......

But what made the head of the Nangong family strange was that the terrifying man in black finally said the first words after entering.

He listened attentively, only to find a soft sigh in the voice:

"This is what you deserve, and then half a point is indispensable. ”

Nangong Family Master: ???

Three Elders: ???

...

...

The meeting hall at the inner gate of the Nangong family was shrouded in a dark shadow.

The sound of skulls exploding came out.

The last scream was made by the head of the Nangong family.

This voice was extremely desperate and fearful, tearing through the sky of this snowy night, and also quieting the entire Xuanhe lively and prosperous Nangong family.

When the guards and disciples of the family heard this, they were stunned and ran to the inner door one after another.

And the man in black walked in the opposite direction, passing by them.

But no one noticed him!

He is a ghost walking in the snow.

Behind.

The conference hall opened, and everyone was completely stunned by the scene in front of them.

The three elders, as well as the head of the family, were no longer human, as if they had been trampled on the chest by the hooves of the giant elephant, crushed into the ground, the stone slabs were cracked, the spider patterns were heavily expanded, and the heads of the four people were already broken, like four pieces of rotten flesh...

Everyone was stunned, and Nangong Rong's brothers and sisters were also inside, and at this time, their cheeks were pale and their legs were trembling.

It's not just visual, it's a strong shock full of blood.

It is also the complete collapse of the spiritual pillars.

It's over, it's all over.

If a family doesn't have high-level combat power, then there is no need to think about the outcome at all.

Under the nest, there will be no eggs.

Maybe their ending is not as good as that of ordinary people...

Maybe even their Nangong family's inheritance exercises will have to be used to slap others.

...

A few days later.

On the Bixiao Cliff, the man in black took off his hood, revealing Xia Yuan's calm face.

He dusted off the snow from his body, stamped his feet to move the blood, and muttered "starve to death."

ran into the cave, there was still a pile of wine sent by the little junior sister in the corner, a whole sheep carried by Zhu Juneng hanging on the wall, and the food sent by the other junior brothers and sisters was also complete.

Xia Yuan skillfully lit the bonfire with flint and steel, cut a leg of lamb with a knife, roasted it on the bonfire, patted the mud again, sniffed the rich aroma of wine, and smiled.

Several lines of information appeared in front of his gaze:

【Xia Yuan】
