Chapter 21: The Secret Realm of Yunxia
"Do you know how my Ye clan rose back then? Xuan'er. Pen ~ Fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info" Ye Mingren asked slowly.
"I don't know." Ye Xuan hesitated and replied cutely.
"I know you little lazy won't know this." Ye Mingren listened to Ye Xuan's answer, didn't care, and then explained to Ye Xuan.
"A thousand years ago, the ancestor of my Ye family was just a lowly cattle boy, but one day when he was herding cattle in Yunling, the sky suddenly brightened, and a beautiful cloud appeared, and the cloud lasted for half an hour and then gradually dispersed, revealing a door covered by the cloud."
"The ancestor of my Ye family is also a bold person, so he put the cow aside and broke in directly. After coming out, the ancestor had to meet the immortal fate, and directly transformed from a mortal cowboy to a spiritual master. After that, he broke into the world and established my Ye clan. ”
Ye Mingren's tone was leisurely, as if he had returned to those long years.
"When the ancestor died, he told this secret to his descendants, saying that it was a secret place left by an ancient sect, and there were many treasures and inheritances in it. This secret realm is open once in a hundred years, and only young children under the age of 18 are allowed to enter. My Ye family relied on the treasures in the secret realm to gradually become stronger, and grew into the current wealthy family. But ......"
Ye Mingren's words changed and became cold.
"It's hateful that three hundred years ago, there was a big traitor in my Ye clan's lineage, and he told this secret to the other two families in Tianhai County, the Ji family and the Lin family. In desperation, the patriarch of the Ye clan had to agree with them that when the hundred-year period came, ten people from each family would enter the Yunxia Secret Realm, regardless of life and death. ”
After finishing speaking, Ye Mingren stopped and looked at Ye Xuan quietly, his deep eyes were so deep that it was impossible to guess what he was thinking at this time.
"The Yunxia Secret Realm is about to open?" Ye Xuan's big eyes blinked, and he was cute.
"Yes, the Yunxia Secret Realm will open in three days, does Xiao Xuan'er have any thoughts of going." Ye Mingren looked at Ye Xuan with some expectation.
"Didn't Uncle Akihito find the right person in the Ye family?" Ye Xuan did not answer Ye Mingren directly, but asked suspiciously.
"You little slippery head, you are indeed one person missing. I think that my Ye clan has been inherited for thousands of years, but today it is so green and yellow that I can't even get together the ten grandmasters of the Nine Realms of Martial Dao. Ye Mingren's tone suddenly lowered, a little sad.
"I heard that Ye Ningxue, the daughter of the Great Elder, has returned from her studies and has broken through the martial arts and is a great master of the Spirit Realm. She is a spiritual realm master, how can she be better than ten martial arts masters on the other side? Ye Xuan was puzzled.
"You don't have a master of the spirit realm in the Ji family and the Lin family." Ye Mingren smiled dumbly, and then added.
"Moreover, Ye Ningxue is not a ...... after all"
Before Ye Mingren finished speaking, the smart Ye Xuan understood what he meant, Ye Ningxue was a member of the Great Elder's faction, and the clan respected the two factions of the Great Elder and the Patriarch.
"Is it dangerous inside?" Ye Xuan said with some hesitation, she is not stupid, the three major families have been grudges for a long time, and at this time, the young talents of the three clans gather in a realm of life and death, and fools know what will happen.
"Of course it's very dangerous, but generally speaking, it's good that half of the ten people who walk in make it alive." Ye Mingren's tone was heavy, and the words he said made people shudder.
"However, we usually have a well-cultivated guard for each of our descendants, so the true elite children of the family are rarely damaged. Otherwise, how can I be willing to let you go, Xiao Yexuan. Ye Mingren looked at Ye Xuan, whose little face was frightened, and couldn't help but say funny.
"Scared the baby to death." Ye Xuan patted his small chest gently, and when he heard that the mortality rate was as high as fifty percent, Ye Xuan was indeed a little scared. But then she thought about it, she was a person who aspired to become an empress, how could she be intimidated by this small difficulty, so she said to Ye Mingren firmly: "Uncle Mingren, I want to go inside to exercise." ”
"That's good! Tomorrow, you will go to the martial arts arena and choose your own guard. Ye Mingren said with a smile.
"Uncle Akihito, that secret realm is dangerous. Can you bear to hurt your sweet and beautiful little niece there? Ye Xuan grabbed Ye Mingren's hand and looked pitiful.
"I knew you'd be coming to this set. This is a spirit pattern jade pendant, which can withstand three attacks from a spirit level master. Get out of here after taking it, my family is about to be hollowed out by you. Ye Mingren scolded with a smile, gave Ye Xuan a jade pendant with clear lines and a faint fragrance, and waved his hand, like chasing flies, with a look of disgust.
Ye Xuan originally wanted to knock him a few more bamboo sticks, but when he saw his action of sending off guests, he left the study in a huff.
"Child, you have to grow up as soon as possible, the time is ...... Not much...... Don't let the master down. Looking at Ye Xuan, who was gradually leaving, Ye Mingren spread out the phoenix character, and a purple flame emerged from his fingertips, and the phoenix character seemed to be pulled by something, separated from the white rice paper, and turned into a huge fire phoenix, burning in the air, shining the study brightly.
"If it's a phoenix, it should spread its wings and soar."
…………
Ye Xuan walked out of the study and looked at Xiuqing who was still standing at the door, it was now approaching winter, and the cold wind was cold at night, Ye Xuan was okay, not only was he a martial artist, he was not afraid of the cold, but he was also wearing a thick and precious fox fur coat, but Xiuqing was not good.
She herself does not practice martial arts, and her body bones are extremely weak, so she wears a maidservant dress and stays in this cold wind for a whole hour, her fair face has gradually turned purple, and her delicate fingers have no trace of blood at this time, frozen there.
Ye Xuan passed by her side, and she reacted, hurriedly made a gesture, and said, "Miss Biao, go slowly." ”
Looking at Xiuqing, who was already shivering from the cold, Ye Xuan's eyes flashed with a hint of pity, and when she looked at her eyes, she felt that her whole body and mind were about to be shocked.
What kind of eyes are they, the black eyeballs are inlaid with a piece of flawless white jade, the long eyelashes are slightly upturned, the eyes are black, like a pool of ancient wells without fluctuation, even if they are shivering in this cold night, they have not changed, as if they have seen through all the vicissitudes of the world.
Indifferent? Sit down under? No, neither. It was a pride, a pride that would never give in even in a filthy place. That perseverance, that arrogance, that kind of nobility on the soul level, shocked Ye Xuan so much that he couldn't breathe.
Ye Xuan took away all the pity and sympathy in her eyes, any sympathy and pity is a great insult to this woman, she seems to be the green lotus in the summer, out of the mud but not stained, clear ripples but not demons, straight from the middle to the outside, not vines and branches. Although she is a mere maid, she has received Ye Xuan's greatest respect at this time.
Ye Xuan walked to Xiuqing's side, took off his fox fur coat, said to Xiuqing in a sincere tone: "Xiuqing, the weather is gradually getting colder, remember to add a few more clothes." ”
Xiuqing suddenly took the coat and let Ye Xuan drape it on herself, and for a while her body was warm, and even her heart was warm.
Looking at Ye Xuan's curling posture leaving, Xiuqing touched the warm and comfortable coat, and her eyes couldn't help but be a little moist. It stands to reason that she should refuse, it's not that those young ladies or young masters have done this, but their eyes are either pity or greed or ulterior motives, Xiuqing refused directly without thinking about it, she knows that those people's overtures are just for her identity as the patriarch's maid and her beautiful appearance. But this cousin's face was full of sincerity, so that she couldn't bear to refuse.
Besides, what do you have that is worthy of Miss Biao's picture? Does she need to build a good relationship with the patriarch? Xiuqing smiled bitterly.
"The kindness of today will be repaid by a spring in the future." She clenched her pink fists and said silently in her heart.
