Chapter 23: Secret Back to Xiao Yuan
Yuan Yan didn't intend to alarm anyone when he returned to Xiao Yuan City this time, and he knew that with his current cultivation strength, he couldn't be an enemy with Yuan Feng and the entire City Lord's Mansion. He just wanted to sneak into the City Lord's Mansion after nightfall, and then sneak out with Zeng Rourou.
In the past half a year, his solo cultivation has made his appearance have changed very significantly, especially after the chance in the Blood Lake, he is suddenly a head taller than when he left Xiao Yuan City. When Yuan Yan was walking on the streets of Xiaoyuan City with a wind-riding horse, no one connected him with the second young master, the original city lord.
In the past half a year, Xiaoyuan City has undergone a lot of changes. The most important point is that Yuan Feng officially took over the position of city lord three months ago. Judging from the news that Yuan Yan heard in the streets and alleys, on the day Yuan Feng took over as the city lord, all the famous strong men and nobles in the Sanyuan City area came to attend the feast, and even the kingdom came to no less than 20 strong nobles, and even the kingdom's famous alchemy master Liu Chengfeng came! It is said that Yuan Feng was full of spring breeze that day, and he was full of pride, and when Master Liu left, he not only gave a lot of genius treasures, but even gave Master Liu twelve girls to the master as maids.
Unlike the well-organized streets of Dayuan City, there are many adventurers who set up stalls and sell goods on the streets of Xiaoyuan City. In Xiaoyuan City, as long as you pay the cost of ten crystal nuclei, you can set up a stall on the street all day at will, and there are many adventurers who often choose to pay the price of ten crystal nuclei to sell goods on the street in order to obtain greater returns. Of course, there are often leaks in these street stalls, after all, adventurers don't know all about some rare cultivation materials. Before nightfall, Yuan Yan led the wind horse to wander among the stalls on the street to kill time and inquire for news.
There was everything on the street stalls, from all kinds of common magical beast materials to rare genius treasures, and even Yuan Yan saw someone selling the weeds that could be found everywhere in the Ten Thousand Beast Mountain Range! Yuan Yan looked over one by one, and a stall with rusty iron tools caught his attention.
The position of this stall is more conspicuous, just at the three-way intersection of a large road, the stall is not very large, and there are rusty ironware placed on it at random, because the rust is too serious, some of them can not even identify its original use. What attracted Yuan Yan's attention was a rusty iron plate with two faint handwriting on it - Yuyuan.
When he left that mysterious valley, the hundred and four words of the Yuyuan Sect that appeared on the cliff wall had been bothering him, but it was a pity that he didn't hear any news about the Yuyuan Sect in Dayuan City, as if the entire sect had never appeared, and this only stimulated Yuan Yan's curiosity even more. Something related to this was accidentally found here today, how could he miss it?
Yuan Yan squatted down in front of the stall, picked up an iron tool at random, and then asked very casually: "Boss, what are you? Why can't I see what's the use?" The boss, who was originally napping, looked up and saw that it was a young man, and suddenly came to his senses, cleared his throat and said: "Childe has a good eye! This is the magic weapon fragment of the ancient immortal master! Now there are very few such things! When forging weapons, adding these fragments can greatly increase the level of weapons!" When Yuan Yan heard this, he smiled playfully, looked at the boss and said, "The boss has such a good baby, why don't you use it yourself?" After hearing Yuan Yan's words, the adventurer who was selling Warcraft materials at the stall on the side laughed and said to the stall owner: "Hu Da flickered, when you see that people are young, you want to pit others again? What do you know! This is really a fragment of a magic weapon! I dug it in the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range half a month ago!" The adventurer laughed even louder when he heard it: "I dug it up in the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range half a month ago? Hahaha, I laughed to death! When did you dare to enter the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range? How easy it was to dig up the fragments of magic weapons?" Yuan Yan on the side moved in his heart after hearing the words of the stall owner, and said: "Don't talk about the fragments of magic weapons, antiques are possible." I'm quite fond of collecting antiques and other old things, if the boss can tell me where this came from, I'll take it!" When the adventurer saw that Yuan Yan really wanted to buy these things, he couldn't help but persuade: "Childe be careful, this guy is our famous coward! How dare he enter the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range! Don't be deceived by him!" The stall owner glared at the adventurer and said, "Why don't I dare to go in? This is really what I dug in the Wanshou Mountain Range! Do you think this boy is as visionless as you?" As he spoke, he turned his head to Yuan Yan and gestured three fingers and said, "Three hundred crystal nuclei! Childe, you can take them all! I'm taking you to the place where I dug up these treasures!" Yuan Yan shook his head and said, "Three hundred crystal nuclei are too expensive, I'm just a little interested." I can't be sure when these things will be, if you sell 20 crystals of nuclear energy, I'll ask for it, otherwise forget it!"
In fact, the stall owner himself is not very clear about what these things are for, and it is really the same as what the adventurer said. He has been selling this thing in this stall for most of the day, and he doesn't have a single one that he wants to buy, thinking that if he can't sell it today, he will have to pay another stall fee tomorrow, and he was also a little tempted at that time, and stretched out five fingers to Yuan Yan and said: "Fifty, I'll take you to the place I dug again! It can't be cheaper, I have ten crystal nuclei here!" Seeing this, Yuan Yan happily paid the crystal nucleus and put away all the iron tools on the ground.
Yuan Yan, who had completed the transaction, quickly followed the stall owner out of the city and towards the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range. Not long after leaving the city, Yuan Yan noticed that the adventurer next to the stall was following them from a distance along with two other companions. Yuan Yan actually noticed that the adventurer's eyes always glanced at his left hand wearing a storage bracelet intentionally or unintentionally, and he also knew very well that the other party was greedy because he saw his storage bracelet.
Soon, the three adventurers who were following them were catching up and surrounding them. Yuan Yan didn't expect them to be so impatient on the side of the road not far from the city. The highest cultivation among the three people was the adventurer in the bazaar, who was already a cultivator at the first level of the Early Yang Realm, and the other two were also masters of the tenth layer of the Yunyang Realm.
Looking at the three people who came around, Hu Da Yu said in a trembling tone: "Tian Lao Er, you guys are a little unparticular! At least let me complete this business!" Tian Lao held the long knife in his hand, squinted at Hu Da Fu, and said disdainfully: "Pay attention to your turtle son! Don't think about the two of you today! Especially you!" He pointed at Yuan Yan with a long knife and said: "Especially you kid, you are so well-dressed and can sell fifty crystal nuclei to pile up rags, you should be the son of a big family, right?" How will I continue to mix up in the future if the news leaks out? I'll make it clear today, I want my money and my life today!"
After hearing Tian Laoer's words, Hu Da Flicker knelt down on the spot, and said with a crying voice: "Second Master, you also know my Hu Da's guts, you just treat me as a fart, let me go! I don't know anything!" Tian Lao Er laughed, kicked Hu Da Flicker, and then slashed Hu Da Flicker's neck.
Yuan Yan hadn't spoken since the three of them appeared, and had been standing there silently watching the conversation between the two of them. At this moment, seeing that Hu Da was about to die under the knife, he finally couldn't help it. A punch smashed into Tian Laoer. Seeing this, Tian Lao Er hit Yuan Yan's fist with a single fist with his left hand, and shouted in his mouth: "Do you still have time to save him, see how I can blow you up with one punch!" However, before Tian Lao Er's words were finished, he felt a huge force surging from his left hand, his eyes were black, and the whole person was beaten five or six meters away, lying on the ground and not knowing whether he was alive or dead.
Seeing this, Tian Laoer's two accomplices shouted, and they all brandished their long knives and attacked Yuan Yan. Yuan Yan turned around unhurriedly, and swung his fists at the same time against the long knives of the two. Then only the sound of the bell was heard, and the two long knives broke inch by inch at the same time, and the two people were also knocked out by the vibration of the fist, flying more than two meters away.
Looking at the two people sitting on the ground with the handle of the knife, Yuan Yan said lightly: "Get out!" After hearing this, the two people hurriedly turned around and fled, not even looking at Tian Laoer, who was lying on the ground and didn't know whether he was alive or dead.
Hu Da flickered on the side and stomped his feet in a hurry: "Childe shouldn't let them go!" Tian Lao's elder brother Tian Lao Da is a tyrant in Xiao Yuancheng, if you kill his younger brother, those two will definitely report when they go back, so we will be in big trouble!"
Yuan Yan didn't expect that Natian Er would have an older brother, which made him a little surprised.
