Northwest of Miaozhou.

Valley.

"Sister Xue. Wen Ning walked up to Xue Yuan, who was standing near the entrance of the valley at this moment, and called in a low voice.

Xue Yun came back to his senses, turned his head to look at Wen Ning, with a shallow smile on his face, and reached out to touch the top of Wen Ning's head: "At this time, shouldn't you be cultivating?"

Wen Ning lowered his head slightly, his face flushed a little: "I...... Not yet in the valley...... Just ......"

"Came out looking for food?" Xue Yuan hooked the corners of his mouth: "Isn't the stove room over there?"

"Hmm...... On the way over, I saw Sister Xue here. ”

Xue Yuan's eyes lowered for a moment, he breathed a sigh of relief, and touched the head of the young man standing in front of him again: "Thank you for our Wen Ning's concern, I'm fine." ”

"Sister Xue......"

"Let's go and cultivate. Xue Yuan patted Wen Ning on the shoulder: "Since you have the opportunity, you have to make good use of it." Now let's ...... What is most lacking is strength. ”

Wen Ning paused, and nodded vigorously: "I understand Sister Xue, I will cultivate hard and improve my cultivation quickly...... Helped you earlier. ”

"You're already doing me a favor. Xue Yun sighed lightly: "The valley was first built, although there are only a few of us, there are really a lot of things, and the things I can't take care of are all Wenning cuisine, and they are very good." ”

The tips of Wen Ning's ears were a little red: "Sister Xue......"

They went south from Yuanzhou, fled into Miaozhou all the way, and settled in this valley in the northwest of Miaozhou, where the aura is still acceptable, and it has been half a year of hard work to this day.

During this period of time, Xue Yuan took the twenty-one foundation building periods of loose cultivation, including Wen Ning, and used all the things he could use to arrange this valley into a simple residence in the station, and each person chose a cave mansion to arrange and live in.

On the second day of coming to this valley, Xue Yuan, the only Jindan monk among the people, gathered everyone together,......

She wants to use this valley as a base to establish a new power.

Don't look at the pedigree, regardless of the roots, don't talk about the background.

Gather people with the same aspirations or aspirations in one place and form a tower.

Scattered on the continent of Kyushu, suppressed by the high-ranking family for many years, the people who have to swallow their anger, whether they are scattered or cultivated, ordinary people......

Only they are gathered in one place, only they are twisted together, only they come out of the way, only they have the strength to resist......

Seek justice for one and justice for all.

After three days, after careful consideration, the scattered cultivators who had made a little retouching finally ......

None of them left.

As a result, this uninhabited valley in the northwest of Miaozhou became the place where they started.

At the beginning of Yuanzhou, Xiao Luo broke through the boundary with the Kunwu sword, and led away the monk guards who were guarding nearby, and these people were under the cover of the formation formed by the array disk that Xue Yuan had left behind and activated at the same time in his hand, and successfully covered up the traces of his body, and escaped from the secret place under the nose of Rao who lingered for a moment and was not led away by Xiao Luo, and hid silently outside the barrier. Until the monks who didn't find them in the hidden formation hurriedly left to chase Xiao Luo, who was quite quiet.

At that time, after their group settled down in this valley, it came in handy again, and together with some formation maps that Xiao Luo had given Xue Yuan before, they were used in the layout of the valley station.

Gathering aura for cultivation and isolation on the periphery for defense is rough but barely comprehensive.

During that time, he opened a cave in the valley and built a station, tried to set up an enchantment, led people to patrol the vicinity, cut down demon beasts, picked elixirs, collected monster beasts, and found shops nearby in exchange for supplies......

Xue Yuan was not familiar with these things, but fortunately, Wen Ning helped.

A month had passed since everything was in order, and everything in the valley had barely settled down, and the people who had gained a lot from absorbing more than a day's chaotic aura in that secret place in Yuanzhou began to concentrate on cultivation.

As monks, cultivation is the foundation of their lives.

And now, what they need most about this hastily built force is strength.

There is only one Jindan monk in Xue Yuan, and he can still be ranked on the remote border, but ......

Their aspirations don't stop there.

No longer a mermaid, no longer an ant, no longer at the mercy of others.

These casual cultivators may not have the same ambition as Xue Yuan, they stay here mostly for themselves.

Kyushu is vast, and it is difficult to support it alone. Especially these low-level casual cultivators who are not highly cultivated, in the eyes of those families, they are almost indistinguishable from ordinary people.

Especially in Yuanzhou, even if they don't know that those are the people of the Feng family, the scattered cultivators also clearly know that it is because of characters like them to shake the big forces, and they don't want to break through what they see is the secrets of the big people they can't reach......

But how can anyone like them, who has no foundation and no profit, be willing to take the risk of offending the big people to shelter them?

Thereupon......

In the newly built valley, more than half of the members of the first batch were forced to protect themselves.

Only a few people really recognized Xue Yuan's ambition in their hearts.

But this is not easy.

Now among the people in the valley, only Wen Ning will still call her "Sister Xue". Others had called her "Senior Xue" before, but now they have all changed their names to "Gu Master".

Although their valley is not yet well named.

Wen Ning hesitated for a moment and said softly:

"Sister Xue, didn't we have received the news from Brother Xiao a long time ago, and also sent him information about the affairs of the valley? Brother Xiao has a high cultivation level and has such a powerful spiritual weapon in his hand, he is proficient in formations, he is a very capable and smart person, he must be safe and sound. It's just that something has been delayed, and it's not convenient to communicate with us frequently at the moment, so it's ...... He'll be coming to us soon. ”

Soon after they fled to this valley, Xue Yuan received a message from Xiao Luo. There were no soul birds, no sound transmission stones, just a few words from the messenger.

'Be well, don't worry. ’

Only four words made Xue Yuan, who was anxious at that time, almost unable to stand on his feet.

But that's all there is to it.

After that, Xue Yu hurriedly reported the matter of their settlement in the valley to Xiao Luo. Out of caution, fearing that the summons would be intercepted and snooped on at that time, Xue Yuan only dared to vaguely hint at the general location of their safe footing in the summons, and reminded Xiao Luo that he could follow the traces of the array disk he gave her to find the exact location.

It's just that...... That summons was like a stone sinking into the sea, and there was no response, and Xue Yun didn't know whether those news and hints had successfully reached Xiao Luo's hands.

So long has passed since Xiao Luo's arraignment......

Xue Yun sighed slightly: "...... Yours is. ”

Wen Ning frowned and thought for a long time, and inevitably blamed himself for being stupid and couldn't say anything, so he had to use the method of changing the topic:

"Sister Xue, you got up with me yesterday, Sister Shangguan of the Shangguan family has been found, and she is on her way to our valley?"

Xue Yun raised his eyebrows, he also knew Wen Ning's thoughts, and after sighing, he followed his thoughts and took over the conversation:

"Well, my friend named Ling Xia interrogated with me a few days ago and finally found Shangguan Miao of the Shangguan family. She is now in Miaozhou, not far away. It's just that it's inconvenient for me to leave the valley right now, but fortunately, Ling Xia and Shangguan Miao are willing to come and meet us. By the way I imply, about ...... In just one or two days, you can get there. ”

Wen Ning was a little apprehensive: "Shangguan's ...... Sister Shangguan ......"

"Wen Ning?"

"Our family...... We are ashamed of the Shangguan family. I promised my grandfather that he would try his best to find someone to compensate the Shangguan family, but now I really want to see him...... Again...... I'm a little scared. Wen Ning raised his head and smiled at Xue Yuan: "Maybe it's ...... I'm afraid that Sister Shangguan will hate me, right? But if you really want to count it, she should hate me, and when she thinks about it this way, she is more calm. ”

Xue Yun sighed: "She hasn't come yet, you haven't seen it yet, don't think too much." Maybe...... She didn't think so. ”

"If she doesn't blame our family, she is generous, blame our family, and it should be. If you do something wrong, you should bear the consequences, and there is no reason to keep getting away with it. No matter what Sister Shangguan thinks, I want to compensate her on behalf of our Wen family. ”

Xue Yu looked at Wen Ning deeply, was silent for a while, and then sighed with a smile:

"When I was in Chenzhou, I sighed with your brother Xiao...... You have a pure heart. ”

Wen Ning's face flushed a little: "No...... I...... I'm not ...... yet."

Xue Yuan's palm was raised again, gently touching the top of Wen Ning's hair: "At that time, your brother Xiao ...... Also ...... with me"

“...... What?"

He ...... He seemed to have heard a senior mention before that the so-called pure heart should be able to face the future with a pure and warm heart after going through hardships, thorns, and seeing the darkness of the world.

Wen Ning was stunned for a moment, and after thinking for a moment, his brows relaxed, and his entire aura changed.

He nodded solemnly and said to Xue Yuan, "Wen Ning understands, Sister Xue." No matter what happens in the future, Wen Ning will firmly remember his current mood and will not change. ”

Xue Yun let out a breath and patted Wen Ning's shoulder: "...... Well. ”

After Wen Ning left, only Xue Yu was left.

Her gaze fell back to the entrance of the valley not far away, and her mind was once again a little dazed.

After getting the news of Ling Xia the day before yesterday, Xue Yun thought twice and sent a message to contact Li Yanran, who was far away in Cangzhou.

The Li family's Cangzhou no longer has much eyeliner from the Feng family, and there are no longer people around Li Yanran from time to time, and it seems that the previous Li Yanning's marriage has faded.

However, Li Yanran had another thing with Xue Yuan.

The shops under the Li family no longer sell Qingyun Dan.

Li Yanran didn't know if this was because the Feng family cut off the supply of the Li family, or if the Li family was angry here and took the initiative to give up the sale, but this incident is really proof of the stiff relationship between the Feng family and the Li family now.

At the time of the interrogation, Li Yanran had no eyeliner around her, and the Li family didn't care about encircling her now, and she was already planning to leave Cangzhou in a few days.

Li Yanran did not mention it for caution when she was arraigned, but they all knew that Li Yanran was going to find Li Yanning first.

Li Yanning, when Xue Yu fled from Yuanzhou in a hurry, he found an opportunity to send her a message, and Li Yanning, who was still in the town near Peiyuancheng in the north of Yuanzhou at that time, is now in Chenzhou.

The movement in Dingyuan City was too big, and they accidentally hit Jiujing, the stakes were very high, they broke into Jiujing and escaped, and killed the "son" that the Feng family attached great importance to, after that, the entire Yuanzhou may not be safe, even if they did not find any trace of Feng Jiarao near Peiyuan City, which is thousands of miles away, they have to be more careful. Li Yanning's situation is special, once found out by the Feng family, the consequences are really unimaginable.

So after receiving Xue Yuan's warning summons, she avoided Zhongzhou in the west where the Feng family was located and Cangzhou where the Li family was located in the east, and did not dare to approach the south of the strict investigation.

In fact, it should be the safest to go to Qiaozhou, where Su Run and Zhou Yan are now, but at that time, the Streamer Grass Mountain Range had not yet been unsealed and the Feng family still had many people wandering at the junction of Qiaozhou and Cangzhou, which was close to Yuanzhou, and the second came to ......

Zhou Yan also seems to have had an accident.

It's just that until now, Xue Yun still doesn't know what happened to Zhou Yan.

One by one, the previous doubts could not be answered, and the ensuing questions had to be planned, as well as the development of the valley, and the public rao arranged......

Xue Yun had never felt so tired.

And so it is...... Panic.

But even the emotions of worry and panic, she didn't dare to let them stay in her heart for too long, for fear that they would shake and crush her mind.

She has become the "valley master", and she has to straighten her spine and take on more forgiving paths and wishes.

From the moment she embarked on this road and made this decision, she could not fall and did not dare to fall.

Fortunately......

Maybe I still love her.

......

Because he knew that Shangguan Miao of the Shangguan family would come to the valley with Xue Yuan's friend and Ling Xia in the past two days, Wen Ning couldn't calm down, so he would come to the valley entrance like Xue Yuan every day.

Shangguan family, Qingyun Jue, now everyone in the valley, only Xue Yun and Wen Ning know, the others just heard that their valley master's friends will come over in the next two days. The truth of Qingyun Jue is fine, but the affairs of the Shangguan family, especially the matter of Shangguan Miao, before Shangguan Miao's original consent is obtained, Xue Yun and Wen Ning have no intention of talking to others in the valley.

On this day, when Wen Ning brought some tea to Xue Yuan near the entrance of the valley, he was pleasantly surprised to see-

At the entrance of the valley, outside the large array of protection and obscure, there has only been occasional entry and exit in the valley for many days, and in the distance, a familiar figure slowly approached.

The man was dressed in indigo, his figure was erect, and he was still so conspicuous under a green tree.

Xiao Luo.

Brother Xiao, whom he hasn't seen for a long time.

Wen Ning almost knocked over the teapot and teacup in his hand in surprise, and was about to open his mouth to shout, but he swallowed back when he caught a glimpse of Xue Yuan's slightly trembling back a few steps away. Stretching out a hand, he greeted the figure from afar, then turned around and quietly left the same way with his tea.

Well......

He's better, let's go and arrange a place for Brother Xiao to live, food, and clothing first......
