Chapter 196: Murmur

Although there were only five days left before the big competition in the middle capital, once the plan was formulated, it was implemented in an orderly and silent manner. If you want a big family like the Xu family, it is naturally strict and has a set of implementation methods.

At the same time, on the second day of Xu Ziyan's return, that is, when there were still four days left before the big competition in the middle capital, the Xu family's outer hall held a banquet, Xu Kang, Xu Wen, Xu Tianxiao, and Xu Huniu, the four gang leaders of the outer hall sent big gifts, and personally worked on the banquet to celebrate that Xu Ziyan was about to leave the Xu family's outer hall and enter the inner hall.

Xu Ziyan naturally wouldn't give Xu Kang any more, Xu Wen and Xu Tianxiao looked at each other, and chatted with everyone gently, which made Xu Kang, Xu Wen and Xu Tianxiao very happy, and at the same time admired Xu Ziyan's personality even more. Who is Xu Ziyan now? That was the top ten elite disciples of the younger generation of the Xu family. But he is still so approachable, which makes Xu dare to do so. While Xu Wen and Xu Tianxiao admired, they also felt deeply ashamed. Xu Huniu admired Xu Ziyan even more, and couldn't wait for Xu Ziyan not to leave the outer hall and be the leader of their Plum Blossom Gang.

After the banquet dispersed, Xu Ziyan called Xu Qingxue to her room, took a closer look at Xu Qingxue, and found that in half a year, she had reached the ninth layer of cultivation the day after tomorrow. Xu Ziyan was very satisfied with Xu Qingxue's cultivation and advancement, asked her about the process of cultivation, and answered some of Xu Qingxue's questions.

The next day, it was three days before the middle capital city of Dabi. Xu Ziyan was woken up early in the morning, and it turned out that she was told to report to the inner hall later.

Xu Ziyan washed up, and ate the last breakfast in the cafeteria of the outer hall. The moment she put down the dishes and chopsticks and left the cafeteria, she heard a sudden landslide and tsunami-like roar in the cafeteria:

"Congratulations to Senior Sister Xu for entering the inner hall, and I wish Senior Sister Xu a miracle and sweep the inner hall"

At this time, Xu Ziyan had already stepped out of the door, and when he heard the cheers of everyone, he didn't stop his figure, but just raised his right hand and shook it gently. However, a wry smile appeared on her face with her back to everyone:

"Divine power, sweeping the inner hall?"

Thinking about his experience of escaping this time, the disciples of those sects he had seen were cultivating. Xu Ziyan couldn't help but smile bitterly again. Compared with the disciples of those sects, the cultivation of the third layer of his foundation building period is really scum, although in the process of escaping this time, he killed many disciples of the sect, but they were all assassinations by surprise. In the last place in Langya Town, if it weren't for Langya's action, he would definitely die there, where would he return to the family safely?

I really can't be high-profile, if I go to the sect and still be so high-profile, I'm afraid I don't know how to die. After waiting for this Zhongdu City Competition, he will completely disappear in front of everyone's eyes, cultivate well, forget the previous things as soon as possible, and cultivate a low-key habit.

Zongmen

Xu Ziyan's heart was both expectant and a little uneasy

Walking all the way towards the inner hall of the family. A huge vermilion gate appeared in front of Xu Ziyan's eyes, and there was no one at the door. Xu Ziyan frowned slightly, and a trace of hesitation passed through his heart. In the past, Xu Ziyan also passed through the inner hall, outside the gate of the inner hall, no matter day or night, there were disciples of the inner hall taking turns to be on duty, but now there is no one, Xu Ziyan's heart can't help but be a little stunned.

He came to the gate and looked around. It is true that no figure was found.

"Could it be that something big happened to the family?"

Xu Ziyan thought secretly in his heart, but instantly denied the thoughts in his heart, because the inner hall disciple who notified him in the morning had not said anything, and when he left the outer hall, he had not heard anything about what happened in the family. I put my ear to the door and stopped for a while, but I didn't notice anything inside. I thought to myself if I should use my mental power to probe, and I felt that this was not good. As soon as he decided to keep a low profile, he used his spiritual power to investigate in the inner hall of the family, once he let others know the Tao, isn't this a show?

Therefore, Xu Ziyan honestly stood outside the door for a while, for about half an hour, and still no one came out, and no one came. Xu Ziyan tilted his head and thought about it, stretched out his hand and gently pushed the door, and the vermilion door opened inside with a "squeak". As the door opened, Xu Ziyan saw a scene that shocked her. I saw hundreds of disciples in the inner hall, under the leadership of Xu Qi, Xu Lin, Xu Tianwolf and others, standing neatly inside the gate. Seeing Xu Ziyan push open the door, he bowed neatly to Xu Ziyan and shouted in unison:

"See Captain"

Xu Ziyan was stunned for a moment, and while she was moved in her heart, she was also smiling helplessly. As soon as he decided to keep a low profile, Xu Qi and others made such a scene for themselves, how can they be low-key? However, Xu Ziyan couldn't say anything. After all, this is everyone's voice from the bottom of their hearts.

Xu Ziyan had no choice but to step into the door, smiling and clasping his fists in return to everyone. Everyone gathered around lively, some Xu Ziyan knew, some Xu Ziyan didn't know, naturally it was an introduction. Then Xu Mei, Xu Lan and Xu Meiruo volunteered to take Xu Ziyan to go through various procedures for the disciples of the inner hall, and finally sent Xu Ziyan to her residence in the inner hall.

The living conditions of the inner hall are much stronger than those of the outer hall, and the house is large and the courtyard is also large. But before Xu Ziyan could finish visiting his residence, he was taken away by Xu Mei, Xu Lan and Xu Meiruo. Xu Ziyan didn't know what they were going to do, but looking at their excitement, Xu Ziyan had no choice but to close her mouth and let the three of them pull her out of the city.

I walked all the way to the dining hall of the inner hall, and saw that it was very lively inside, and many inner hall disciples were busy there. Xu Ziyan was pulled by Xu Mei to a middle seat and sat down, and while everyone was not paying attention, she asked Xu Mei beside her in a low voice:

"Senior sister, is it true that every time a disciple from the outer hall joins the inner hall, do you have to put on a banquet to welcome the newcomers?

After asking this sentence, Xu Ziyan's heart was very emotional. Thinking that when he first entered the outer hall, he was bullied by the old disciples of the outer hall, although in the end he defeated those old disciples of the outer hall, but today when he saw the atmosphere of the inner hall, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart, the inner hall disciples are the elite of the family, you see the quality of others, it is not comparable to the outer hall

Hearing Xu Mei's "sneer" smile, she leaned into Xu Ziyan's ear and said softly:

"No, it's because it's your sister Ziyan who came to the inner hall, if it were someone else, where would there be a banquet to greet her. will directly give him an old fist and beat her down, so that she knows the rules of the inner hall of the Dao"

When Xu Ziyan heard this, he couldn't help but smile bitterly, and secretly said in his heart: "This ...... Really...... The world is as black as a crow."

Raising his eyes and looking around, he saw that the entire dining hall was already full of more than fifty tables, and when he swept his eyes, he found that there were not many high-level disciples in the Qi Refining Period, there were twenty or thirty disciples above the tenth level of the Qi Refining Period, Xu Ziyan fixed his eyes and saw that most of them were disciples who had experienced the battle in Langya Town with him, and that small number should be their closest relatives and friends.

Xu Ziyan smiled and nodded to them, then withdrew his gaze and asked Xu Mei in a low voice:

"Senior sister, is that all there are disciples in our inner hall?" No" Xu Mei shook her head and said softly: "There are more than two hundred disciples above the tenth level of the Qi Refining Period, they are all busy cultivating, and they will not participate in such activities."

Xu Ziyan immediately understood in her heart that these high-level Qi Refining Stage disciples who had experienced the Battle of Langya Town with her knew in their hearts that their true cultivation was the third layer of the Foundation Building Period, so they all attended the event to welcome her, and brought their relatives and friends with them. Although it was impossible for them to reveal their true cultivation, in order for their close friends to leave an impression on themselves, they were persuaded to attend this event together. This can be seen from the inquiring and disdainful gazes of the dozen or so high-level Qi Refining Stage disciples who were brought in to look at them, they didn't really want to come, they were just giving face to their relatives or good friends.

Fortunately, all the people also saw that Xu Qi, Xu Lin, Xu Tianwolf, the elites of the younger generation, and the dozen or so high-level Qi refining stage disciples who participated in the battle of Langya Town, respected Xu Ziyan very much, so no one dared to challenge Xu Ziyan, and a wine banquet was also enjoyable. Just with Xu Ziyan's cultivation, he could naturally hear some distant disciples whispering:

"Hey, what do you say is that Xu Ziyan, why is Senior Brother Qi, Senior Brother Lin and Senior Brother Heavenly Wolf so good to her? If it were someone else, it would have been a lesson earlier. That's good, and you have to give her a drink to welcome, what's going on? ”

"yes. Even if she was once erected as the idol of the family by the patriarch, but it was only a cultivation at the second level of the Qi refining period, there was no need to be so grand, you must know that when we first entered the inner hall, we were bullied a lot, why should she? ”

"Don't say that, Xu Ziyan defeated Yang Linglong, a talented girl on the first day of the Northland, who had cultivated at the fifth layer of the Qi Refining Period, with the cultivation of the second layer of the Qi Refining Period, but it gave our Xu family a face, and it is reasonable to welcome you with wine."

"That's because Yang Linglong had already been injured by Senior Brother Lin before she fought Xu Ziyan, otherwise she would have been able to defeat Yang Linglong at the fifth layer of the Qi Refining Period? Besides, she is also in the younger generation, like us, who is higher in generation than her, which one of them is not higher in cultivation than her, even Na Yang Linglong is not our opponent. If it weren't for the reason of seniority, with the cultivation of the eighth layer of my Qi refining period, I would have gone up to defeat Yang Linglong, a talented girl on the first day of the Northern Land, where would it be her turn to get Xu Ziyan? ”
