The travel of the lord of the mansion, whether it is momentum or pomp, is enough to attract the people in the city to watch.

"There really are two chariots, is Young Master Xia Zai in them?"

"Can this be fake? The people who are qualified to sit in our East Mansion are all direct descendants of the Xia clan, and I see that little monster is inside, and eight or nine are not far from ten. ”

With the discussion of the people, the mansion lord Xia Zhenyu and the others left Cangfeng City.

In the chariot at the front of the line, two middle-aged men with completely different postures bowed to the red-robed man in the upper position.

The burly middle-aged man is one of the four masters of Dongfu, Uncle Nan.

And the other man with a thin body is Uncle Bei, who is as famous as Uncle Nan, although the two are very different in stature, but their weathered looks are fully revealed.

"Master, the three mansions have already left for Tianxiang City, and only the lord of Zhuang Guangxuan Mansion in the West Mansion is there in person, and most of the rest are attended by the elders of various clans. Uncle Bei meticulously reported to Xia Zhenyu the information he heard.

"This regular meeting of the four clans, I'm afraid it's not simple, master, we have to guard against it. Uncle Nan straightened up and hurriedly said.

Xia Zhenyu wore a robe and red clothes to cover his strong arms, two handful of heroic sword eyebrows, showing the majesty of the head of the family, he closed his eyes tightly, listened to the words of the two subordinates, and sat quietly on the top without saying a word.

Uncle Nan saw that the mansion master continued quietly.

"Since the eleventh day of the day, there have been few mansion lords in the regular meetings over the years, and this time the east and west mansion lords gathered, I am worried about ......"

"I'm worried that Elder Taishang's tragedy will be repeated," Uncle Nan hesitated, but still spoke.

Although the Tianxiang Kingdom was established for a short time, it also has a complete year name, with the day as the head, the time number, and twenty-five years as a year.

"Hmph, old ghost Nan, you are afraid that the second young master who was summoned on this trip has three long and two short, and he can't explain to the deceased lady," Uncle Bei on the side sneered.

As soon as his words fell, Xia Zhenyu's disgusted eyes followed, and he also realized that he had said something he shouldn't have said, and buried his head deeply.

Uncle Nan was silent on the side, the beads of sweat on his face were clearly visible, and the atmosphere in the car became very solemn.

"After the eleventh day, the people of the four mansions are trembling, timid, and every year they send a few side elders, perfunctory, for fear that another disaster will break the masters cultivated in the mansion, how ridiculous, I am afraid that they have long forgotten the time when the ancestors fought bloodily with the demon beasts, and forgot the glory of their ancestors. Xia Zhenyu closed his eyes again and said loudly.

"I know what is going on, so go down. ”

If Uncle Bei received amnesty, he bowed to the lord of the mansion and retreated.

Uncle Nan choked on the words in his mouth, but he didn't make a sound, and retired with Uncle Bei.

After the two left, Xia Zhenyu opened his eyes, his eyes full of worry......

The three hundred years since the establishment of the Tianxiang Kingdom were just a drop in the ocean for the entire Zhanxing Continent. Although ordinary people only have a lifespan of about 50 years, they have a high level of knowledge of the world.

They knew of the existence of demon beasts, which were several times more powerful than ordinary people.

The monsters are divided by class, and nine is the most.

The small monster beast can break wood and gravel, and the big monster beast can move mountains and reclaim the sea. Moreover, the shortest lifespan of demon beasts is a hundred years, and the pregnancy period is longer than that of human races, and they have always been entrenched in this continent, feeding on humans.

Nowadays, there are only a few strong Terran martial arts cultivators who can compete with them.

In just a few hundred years, people still can't forget that their ancestors lived on this land as the rations of demon beasts.

At a regular meeting at eleven o'clock in the sky, an unprecedented tide of demon beasts broke out in the imperial city of Tianxiang City, overwhelming demon beasts appeared in the city, innocent people were eaten, and the lords of three of the four mansions were killed, and only the elder Taishang of the East Mansion was fortunate to be killed, but he also lost his hands and legs. In the end, the royal family and the four mansions sacrificed many elders and children to survive this disaster.

The reason for the outbreak of the demon beast tide was only known to the royal family of the person concerned and the surviving Dongfu lord at that time.

This regular summoning meeting, which has been held for the first time in 20 years, has to make Xia Zhenyu deeply worried.

The wilderness is vast, and he walks on a foreign road. Along the way, Ha Jae was also sad, although it has been four years since he came here, he still misses his past life.

There is no sense of belonging, and people and things here are unfamiliar.

Walking to the chariot behind the team, Xia Zai sat on the top seat, his closed eyes and his father Xia Zhenyu withdrew, but only the heroic spirit was missing, adding a bit of handsomeness.

Ever since Ha Jae came here, two artifacts always came to his mind whenever he was immersed in consciousness.

An hourglass that slowly drips grains of sand, and another ancient disc.

At first, there was nothing special about the two artifacts, I just thought it was a dream, but gradually Xia Jae understood that his life was closely related to these two things.

The hourglass in his consciousness was like a clock, with the top glass ball falling to the bottom through the middle slit.

The glass balls in both places have an arc to cut the layer, which is divided into five layers from top to bottom, and the layers are distinct.

Now, after four years, there is only one layer left of the original five-layer hourglass, which has to remind Ha Jae of his unusual growth rate.

"This strange hourglass drops down and records 'time'. Ha Jae groaned.

Another ancient disc, he didn't find anything, the two artifacts are untouchable, through a long look can only judge that its material and texture are of the highest quality, the front of the disc is a hazy haze, the surface is not translucent, giving people a deep sense of mystery.

Ha Jae opened his eyes suddenly, straightened up and stretched.

"Well, I don't know how Grandpa is now? I'm worried if I can't find it. ”

With a sigh, his grandfather's anxious face appeared in his mind, although he also had his own biological parents when he came here, just like water from roots and flowers from leaves, he still wanted to return to his grandfather's side.

This trip to Tianxiang City is the first time that Xia Zai has come into contact with the outside world when he comes to this world.

"Uncle Nan said that there is an elder in the royal family, who is familiar with astronomy and geography, ghost actuarial calculations, known as a know-it-all, and he will definitely go to see it when he arrives in the imperial city. ”

Ha Jae muttered to himself, thinking about where to ask for some clues to go home.

"Second Young Master, Elder Nan asks to see you. A guard outside the chariot said.

"Come in"

The car door was pushed open, and the burly Uncle Nan staggered a step, half-knelt on the ground, and said with both hands clenched into fists.

"Second Young Master, I'm ......"

Before Uncle Nan could finish speaking, Xia Zai rushed forward and helped him up.

"Uncle Nan, you are my mother's guard, you don't have to make such a big gift to me, get up and say it quickly. Xia Zai held Uncle Nan's arms with both hands and said with a solemn face.

Xia Zai's mother was the daughter of the Tang clan in the Northern Barbarian Wilderness, and Uncle Nan was also one of the warriors in the North.

Uncle Nan straightened up and continued with a solemn face.

"Second Young Master, this trip is not child's play, and the Imperial City is not Cangfeng City, besides, the royal family has appointed the Second Young Master to accompany you, and your subordinates are very worried about your safety, please allow your subordinates to stay in the city without leaving. ”

After Uncle Nan finished his request, he had to kneel down again.

Xia Zai hurriedly pulled him up and said with a smug smile.

"Uncle Nan, don't you know me yet?"

Uncle Nan was in a hurry to ask for his life because he knew his second young master's temperament too well.

Although Ha Jae looks like a steady teenager, his mischievous and playful temperament reveals his true age.

Indeed, this world is strange to Ha Jae, and he is just exploring it like a child.

Whenever Ha Jae hid in play, almost no one could find him, unable to perceive the breath, and could only distinguish his traces with the naked eye.

This is also the most troublesome thing for Uncle Nan, obviously he is just a person who has just entered the foundation building period, how can he hide his body so well.

Uncle Nan shook his head helplessly and remained silent.

"Uncle Nan, although I am in the fourth layer of foundation building period, I run fast, and my hiding kung fu is even first-class, even you can't find me, don't look down on me" Xia Zai replied with a playful smile.

"Second young master, my subordinates didn't look down on you......"

"Wait, you said, Second Young Master, you are already in the fourth layer foundation building period?" Uncle Nan asked with a stunned expression.

"Of course, when did Young Master Ben deceive you?"

The foundation building period is only the introduction to martial arts, and there are also shaping, qi training, fugue, unity, Kaiyuan and higher martial arts thresholds. These six periods are all nine levels in each period, and the breakthrough at each level can be described as reborn and go to the next level, because of this, the difficulty is greatly deepened every time you go down to the next level.

Uncle Nan is also a leader in martial arts, and his strength has surpassed the six periods and reached the profound Sanshang Realm, but he was shaken by Xia Zai's words, and the sense of unreality haunted his heart.

"II...... Second Young Master, I remember that you just stepped into the foundation building period seven days ago, why, you have already ...... Fourth, you're kidding me. ”

Even a master who has been immersed in martial arts for decades feels incredible, if it weren't for Uncle Nan's understanding of Xia Zai's temperament, he would have sneered at such an arrogant child.

Hum......

With a cold snort, Xia Jae quickly threw a jab into the air.

A heavy punch rolled up a light wind, and a move hit the wind, although there was no threat, but the strength of the fourth layer foundation building period was undoubtedly revealed.

"This ......"

Uncle Nan, who was burly, was also completely amazed at this moment, and the second young master had indeed reached the fourth layer foundation building period.

After stepping into the foundation building period, he broke through to the fourth layer in seven days, I am afraid that it is unprecedented in Tianxiang's country, Uncle Nan was surprised by Xia Zai's cultivation speed and at the same time, he strengthened his determination to protect the second young master.

"Second Young Master, as soon as you enter the Imperial City, you will not leave an inch, please understand. ”

Xia Zai's cultivation talent was terrifying, which made Uncle Nan worry about his safety even more, and if something went wrong, Uncle Nan would not be able to explain it to the late Lady Tang Zhu.

"Okay, okay, whatever you want, just don't disturb me"

......

At one end of the imperial city, in the courtyard.

"Your Highness, the people of Dongfu are already on their way. A woman bowed down to the green drapery.

"Oh, is the little monster coming?" asked a refreshing voice from behind the screen.
