At the moment when the thunder and lightning hit Mu Ziyan-

Deep in the vast and infinite mountains of Great Xia, a mysterious place.

In the middle of a huge temple.

The hall was so big that it was beyond people's comprehension. I'm afraid that if a strong man walks in this hall, he will look extraordinarily small, no different from ants.

Such a building cannot be built by ordinary martial artists.

Suddenly, in the quiet hall, an ethereal and loud female voice sounded: "The seal that has disappeared for thirteen years has finally fluctuated. I felt her. ”

In addition, a male voice spoke: "Where is she?" ”

Female voice: "The place where the Qi Hope Technique reaches, the east of Great Xia Huaidong, the south of the Pingjiang River." ”

The man was silent for a moment, then said, "It's been thirteen years. Do you think you can really escape? Naïve. Pass the order down and bring her back at all costs. ”

Female voice: "Yes, I'll arrange it now." ”

……

Remember https://m in a second.

Zhonghai is still as calm as ever.

Under the withered ancient locust tree in the backyard of Yanyu Building, Mu Ziyan was still standing there.

Although he was struck by lightning, nothing happened.

She withdrew her hand and looked at her slender fingers. It seems unbelievable that such an ordinary-looking pair of hands can exert such unpredictable power.

It took a long time for her to slowly regain her composure and turn back to her room.

When I opened the notebook, it was as if I was recording something.

If Xiao Beichen was present, he would obviously feel that Mu Ziyan's eyes and expression had changed a lot.

……

It is said that after Xiao Beichen left Yanyu Building, he went to Yanbo Lake to see the reconstruction construction site of Xiao's mansion.

The main project has been completed.

The interior is also halfway over, and you can almost see the prototype of a magnificent mansion.

In charge of the project here is Chen Ziheng.

Seeing Xiao Beichen appear, Chen Ziheng was surprised and hurriedly came over to report the progress of the work.

It can be seen that Chen Ziheng has been much calmer these days with Chen Guohua.

For other details, Xiao Beichen was not interested, but just asked: "How long can I move in?" ”

Chen Ziheng patted his chest and promised: "Within a month and a half, it is guaranteed that it can be completed and moved in." ”

Xiao Beichen breathed a sigh of relief and patted Chen Ziheng's shoulder: "It's hard work." ”

Leaving a word, Xiao Beichen turned around and left.

After experiencing the things in Xiling, Xiao Beichen rarely had idleness. During the day, he went to Yefu to accompany Xie Rui as usual, and often took Xie Rui out for a walk. I didn't leave until dusk and returned to Wenchang Mansion to cook. Have a leisure dinner with Mu Tianhao, Zhang Lan, and Mu Ziyan's family.

The days are very calm, coarse tea and light rice, unpretentious.

But this is the happiest time Xiao Beichen has lived since he left Beiliang.

Every night, Xiao Beichen returned to the room alone and sat on the spot.

Begin to refine the Ancient Dragon Elephant Technique.

Next, Xiao Beichen is going to Gusu City.

Gong Xiuyue bought half a month for herself. The time is getting closer.

This time is considered the calm before the storm.

"The situation in Gusu City is a bit more complicated than that of Xiling Zhonghai. There are also more strong people among them, and for the sake of safety, I have to step into the second layer of the Ancient Dragon Elephant Technique to be safe. Otherwise, once the cold nature of the cold jade bone breaks out, it will inevitably be difficult to clean up. Xiao Beichen has his own worries.

Regarding his own strength, Xiao Beichen has nothing to worry about.

The only thing I am worried about is the hidden danger of cold jade bones in my body.

Once it erupts, it's going to be a big deal.

More than ten days of trance passed unconsciously.

On this day, Xiao Beichen went to the supermarket to buy some fresh ingredients after leaving Yefu, and sent a text message to Mu Ziyan by the way, telling her to go to Wenchang Mansion for dinner.

After all, after taking Mu Ziyan's first time, Xiao Beichen felt the need to show concern.

But Mu Ziyan, who has always been well-behaved, came back late today.

It was ten o'clock in the evening when I got home.

My clothes were a little wet, and my hair was stained with a lot of water.

Xiao Beichen hurriedly found a dry towel to wipe her hair: "Why don't you drive back." You're so easy to catch a cold......"

Swish!

Mu Ziyan suddenly threw herself into Xiao Beichen's arms.

Regardless of the soaked clothes, they just hugged so tightly.

Xiao Beichen caressed her back: "Did you encounter something?" ”

Mu Ziyan snuggled tightly on Xiao Beichen's chest: "It's nothing, I just miss you." ”

Xiao Beichen hugged her, a little distressed.

At this time, Zhang Lan and Mu Tianhao, who were watching TV on the sofa in the living room, watched it. His face was a little unnatural.

"Let's go, I'll take you up and take a shower. Come and eat again. ”

Xiao Beichen directly picked her up horizontally and strode upstairs.

During the meal, the family spoke very little.

Zhang Lan, who has always talked a lot, didn't know what was wrong today, so she became taciturn and only buried herself in eating. And Mu Ziyan was obviously not interested. At the end of a meal, there were only a few words......

Xiao Beichen was vaguely not quite right, but he didn't say much.

After the meal, Zhang Lan washed the dishes and chopsticks, and went back to the room with Mu Tianhao early.

If in the past, Mu Tianhao would always have to play two games of Go with Xiao Beichen to give up.

Today...... It's weird.

Xiao Beichen didn't say much, everyone will always encounter something on their mind, which is normal. After returning to the room, he immediately sat down and began to refine the Ancient Dragon Elephant Technique.

The closer he was to the time to go to Gusu City, the more diligent Xiao Beichen became in refining the ancient body strengthening technique of the master.

Through this period of practice, Xiao Beichen obviously felt that he had made great progress. Away from the second floor, only the last layer of window paper remains.

It's like it's going to break through at any time, but it feels like there's something missing.

In the end, Xiao Beichen had no choice but to give up.

"According to the Empress Master, it is extremely difficult to break the second layer of the Ancient Dragon Elephant Technique. It takes extraordinary talent and hard work. It is more difficult to describe the chance. ”

"I know talent, and I understand hard work."

"It's an indescribable chance...... What does it mean? ”

It's hard to put into words...... What's that?

Suddenly, Xiao Beichen thought of a very critical place.

Since stepping into the first layer of the Ancient Dragon Elephant Technique, Xiao Beichen has been unable to step into the second layer for several years of penance, and there has been no progress.

But...... Since a night of wind and rain with Mu Ziyan a while ago...... The situation has quietly changed.

The next day, Xiao Beichen advanced by leaps and bounds and directly touched the threshold of the second layer.

At that time, Xiao Beichen thought that his accumulation of opportunities and perceptions were enough.

But in the next few days, Xiao Beichen has been practicing hard so far, and there has been no progress at all.

This...... That's not right.

Xiao Beichen suddenly thought that he had something to do with Mu Ziyan......

After taking a bath, Xiao Beichen, who was lying on the head of the bed, began to ponder about it.

The more I think about it, the more I think it's possible.

Mu Ziyan......

Just then, the door was pushed open.

But it was Mu Ziyan who walked in.

Dressed the same as last time.

The tight-fitting and slippery sundress is tightly attached to the skin and wraps a perfect figure.

Sexy and enchanting, charming and moving.

Just one glance at the kind that will make people fall in love.

Moreover, after yesterday's incident, Mu Ziyan has faded a little shyness and become a little more charming.

Xiao Beichen couldn't help but smile after watching it: "Watching horror movies again?" ”

Mu Ziyan glanced at Xiao Beichen: "You don't welcome me?" ”

"The man is gone."

She puffed up and turned to look like she was leaving.

Xiao Beichen hugged her from behind: "Welcome." ”

Her body stiffened slightly, but it wasn't as squirming as it was yesterday.

Turned around and threw himself into his arms.

Delicate red lips kissed Xiao Beichen......

"Beichen, today, you want me fiercely!"

It was another stormy night......

……

When I woke up the next day, it was already three poles of the sun.

Mu Ziyan was not by his side.

Xiao Beichen smiled and prepared to get up and wash.

That's when -

Swish!

Xiao Beichen suddenly shook his whole body, standing in place in a daze, trembling all over.

The changes in the body have already been completed in the moisturizing silently.

Unexpectedly...... Broke through the second layer of the Ancient Dragon Elephant Technique?!

Xiao Beichen was stunned.

How can it be?

He immediately sat down cross-legged, breathed inside, and felt the changes in his body.

Sure enough, it steadily broke through the second layer of elephant power.

Between every gesture, there is an indescribable peerless power surging.

Unprecedented...... of toughness.

This is the Ancient Dragon Elephant Trick!

One of the three strongest alchemy techniques. It has been lost for many years, and looking at the entire Beiliang, there are few people who can step into the elephant power.

The Ancient Dragon Elephant Recipe is divided into 12 layers.

The first six floors are the giant elephant world. The last six layers are the true dragon realm.

There are six layers in the giant elephant world: elephant sound, elephant power, elephant image, elephant soul, elephant blood, and giant elephant.

Previously, Xiao Beichen had been stuck in Xiangsheng. It takes years to get into the image. So much so that Xiao Beichen once wondered if this method left over from ancient times was not suitable for today's human cultivation?

This road, whether it will not work.

Now, with the elephant power in hand, all doubts have disappeared.

Whew!

After feeling the horror of the elephant power and becoming familiar with this power. Xiao Beichen's face showed a satisfied smile: "Finally, I stepped into the elephant power." Relying on this unrivaled peerless power, the cold nature of the cold jade bone could be suppressed for the time being. Within three months, you can have no worries. ”

Xiao Beichen was telling the truth.

Now the cold nature of the cold jade bone continues to explode, and even the elephant power can only be suppressed for a while.

What will happen after three months is unknown.

But for Xiao Beichen, three months is enough to do a lot of things.

The darkness is slowly dissipating.

Light, is coming.

He stood up, went to the window, and looked at the eastern sky.

The rain stopped. The sun rises and shines brightly.

Everything is so wonderful.

"That's true. Zi Yan, you are really my true daughter. ”

Xiao Beichen suddenly had an indescribable taste.

Although he didn't know what was going on...... Between men and women, if something happens, you can break through the second layer of the Ancient Dragon Elephant Technique?

If there were more storms, wouldn't it be possible to reach the third and fourth levels......

What he didn't know, however...... It wasn't just Zi Yan who helped him, he brought Mu Ziyan even more help. What I don't know is that because of this, an unprecedented terrible storm is coming.

After going downstairs, Mu Ziyan left breakfast, and the person was no longer there.

"This girl, I haven't seen anyone all day lately. Are you really going to make plans to expand the Forbidden Palace? Xiao Beichen was eating breakfast, thinking about the expansion plan and not thinking about it yet, how could Mu Ziyan think it well?

And, a plan...... As for letting her work for a few days and nights?

After breakfast, Xiao Beichen also went to Yanyu Building on purpose.

Pang Qingyun and Li Tie are here.

As soon as I asked, I learned that Mu Ziyan had come here early to work. Lock yourself in your office and don't talk to anyone.

Oh?

Xiao Beichen knocked on the door with curiosity.

Isn't it a sure thing for a wife to open the door for her husband?

Although I am not officially married, I still have a marriage contract.

However, Mu Ziyan inside had no intention of opening the door: "Beichen, I'm busy." If you don't have time, you can go and wait at home. I'll go back to dinner in the evening. ”

It's not loud, but it's decisive.

Xiao Beichen didn't want to push too hard, so he didn't continue to knock on the door.

walked up to Li Tiegui and asked solemnly, "Is there anything wrong with her recently?" ”

Li Tiegui said while playing with a cane: "Miss Mu has really not been right recently. In addition to leaving early and returning late...... I secretly went to the backyard to see ......"

Halfway through, Li Tiegui didn't say anything more.

Xiao Beichen asked, "You said it." ”

Grunt!

Li Tiegui swallowed his saliva and said, "There is a hundred-year-old ancient locust tree in the backyard, and the growth is very good. In just these two days, it withered and died inexplicably. And when it rained in the past few days, lightning often hit the backyard. Several large trees were chopped to death. ”

Pang Qingyun also said: "That's true, we are very worried about Miss Mu. But every time she passed, she wouldn't let us in. Let's not talk about it yet. We saw that Miss Mu was fine, so we ......"

In the end, both of them are a little embarrassed.

Xiao Beichen waved his hand: "It's okay." Go down. ”

After retreating from the two, Xiao Beichen came to a separate side hall: "Come out." ”

A dark shadow walked out.

It's the Dance of Blood.

One of the four gods of war in Beiliang.

She secretly followed Mu Ziyan all the time, and outsiders didn't even notice her existence.

Xiao Beichen said lightly: "What's the matter?" ”

Blood Dance is Xiao Beichen's absolute cronies, and it is also a trump card arranged by Xiao Beichen by Zhonghai and Mu Ziyan's side.

She has a special identity and is inconvenient for outsiders to know.

So, many times, she retreats into the background.

But as long as she is in Zhonghai, she is the Dinghai God Needle.

And everything that happened when Xiao Beichen came to Zhonghai, she naturally knew.

Blood Dance said: "Do you remember what Li Weiyang said before? ”

Xiao Beichen said: "Remember." There are two peerless seals in Mu Ziyan's body, one to seal fate, and one to seal essence, bone and blood. ”

Blood Dance nodded: "Recently, it should be that the seal of the essence bone and blood in Miss Mu's body has been loosened. Although only a small part of it was loosened, the power and supernatural powers that emerged from it. Scary enough. ”

Xiao Beichen frowned.

He had a premonition that Mu Ziyan would face such a situation.

I just didn't expect it to happen so quickly.

Blood Dance continued: "These days, Miss Mu locks herself in the office, just to face all this alone and accept it all. It is not an easy thing for a woman who is accustomed to ordinary secular life to accept such a drastic change. ”

What's more, she's still trying to adapt and master the power of this suddenness. It's even harder. ”

Xiao Beichen was a little sad when he heard it: "She didn't tell me if there was such a big thing...... What if there's a difference...... What's the matter? ”

Blood Dance admired it very much: "Miss Mu is strong and chooses to bear all this alone, I admire it a little." ”

"It's nonsense!" Xiao Beichen snorted, turned around and was about to kick the office door.

Swish!

Blood Dance suddenly stretched out his hand to stop it.

Xiao Beichen frowned: "What do you mean?" ”

Blood Dance immediately withdrew his hand, extremely respectful: "Lord Wang, since Miss Mu has already made a choice, why should you interfere?" Everyone who has a dream wants to realize the value by their own efforts. If you are really good for her, then support her decision. ”

"Don't worry, lord. I will always watch, but if there is any accident, I will notify you as soon as possible. ”

These words moved Xiao Beichen.

Yes, everyone who has a dream wants to rely on themselves.

In the end, he couldn't rely on it, so he was forced to find a backer......

But this vast world can truly stand at the top of the world and become the backing of all living beings...... How many people are there?

Seeing that Xiao Beichen hadn't expressed his position yet, Blood Dance said: "Five years ago, when the prince first arrived in Beiliang, the empress did everything possible to let you not toss and spend the rest of your life, but in the end, didn't you listen to the empress's advice and keep tossing?" If it weren't for your original persistence, how could you come to King Xiao Bei behind? ”

Xiao Beichen smiled slightly: "Blood Dance, that is, you dare to say such things in front of me." I listened, though. ”

Syllable!

Xiao Beichen patted Blood Dance's shoulder violently, and solemnly stated: "Thank you for your hard work." Tell me anything that is wrong. Because, Mu Ziyan ...... There is no room for error! ”

Blood Dance breathed a sigh of relief and smiled, "Understood." ”

She is also a woman.

I know very well how difficult it is for women to gain a foothold in this world. It often takes more effort than men.

In this regard, she naturally has some longing for Mu Ziyan.

Why can't Xiao Beichen see it?

It's just that I didn't care, and deep down I was very supportive.

Back then, the empress gave herself enough space and trust, which led to the current Xiao Beichen.

treats the people around him, Xiao Beichen is also like the empress.

You can cover a person, but if the other party wants to really grow up, they need to rely on themselves in the end.

Leaving Yanyu Building, Xiao Beichen went to Yefu to visit Xie Rui, and when he returned to Wenchang Mansion, it was already nine o'clock in the evening.

The living room was empty, and I didn't see the familiar Mu Tianhao and Zhang Lan.

Mu Ziyan sat in the living room in a daze, holding a note in her hand, stunned.

Xiao Beichen leaned over: "What's wrong?" ”

Mu Ziyan handed the note in her hand to Xiao Beichen: "Look." ”

On the note, is Zhang Lan's handwriting.

Two sentences:

Daughter, just got news from your grandfather. Tianhao and I decided to go to Canghe overnight to find him.

When we are away, we should listen to Beichen's words more. He's a man you can trust!

Xiao Beichen's eyes sank: "No wonder last night, Uncle Hao and Aunt Lan were not quite right...... It turned out that they had news of Mu Zhengfeng at that time......"

Mu Ziyan raised her head and muttered, "Beichen, I ......"

I wanted to open my mouth several times, but I wanted to stop talking.

Xiao Beichen saw it in his eyes and said, "Where is the Canghe?" ”

Mu Ziyan said: "Canghe is close to Gusu City. It is an area of Gusu City connecting the Taihang Mountains. The terrain of the Canghe River is long and narrow from north to south, and the northernmost part is not far from Jianmen Pass. ”

Xiao Beichen nodded: "Since that's the case, then don't wait." Early tomorrow morning, we will go to Canghe. It just so happens that I also want to see Old Man Mu. There are a lot of questions, and I have to ask him. ”

In this marriage contract between himself and Mu Ziyan, Mu Zhengfeng is one of the operators.

There are many problems that only Mu Zhengfeng knows.

Moreover, regarding Mu Ziyan's life experience, Mu Zhengfeng must be the only person in Pingnan who knows.

Xiao Beichen really wanted to...... Meet this old man.

Mu Ziyan nodded heavily.

Mu Ziyan's mood was very low all night.

Xiao Beichen took her into his arms and hugged her and fell asleep.

I didn't do anything.

Mu Ziyan was gentle and intellectual, leaning on his arms and not falling asleep until the middle of the night.

Xiao Beichen finally breathed a sigh of relief and slowly fell asleep.

These days, I'm so tired.

Both physically and psychologically......

Just when Xiao Beichen was in a daze, a black shadow suddenly fluttered in from outside the window.

Swish!

Immediately after, a bright sword went straight to Xiao Beichen's throat.

Everything is lightning fast.
