Three days later, in the early morning, on Yushui Mountain in the north of the city, two extremely fast shadows were rushing down from Yushui Mountain.

"Whoosh~"

Lightning-fast!

At the foot of the mountain, the two shadows gradually slowed down. On closer inspection, the two shadows turned out to be a man and a dog. The man was dressed in white, with a delicate long sword behind his back, and his appearance was handsome, and his figure was not burly but very straight. And the dog, on the other hand, was much worse, with little meat on his body, and his dryness was even worse than that of the local dog on the street, as if he hadn't eaten for months.

"Whew~"

This person and a dog are naturally Xia Yan and the earth dog phantom wolf. Xia Yan stopped his body, exhaled a long breath in his chest, his eyes released fine light, his palms slowly stretched forward, and a qi energy emanated from his palms, forming an air mass in the air and rushing out. Xia Yan's hair was still stained with a trace of water.

Three days ago, after Xia Yan listened to the words of the Holy Emperor Old Man, he had another direction. Although the strength cannot be greatly improved in a short period of time, it also knows a direction.

As long as the potion is used to accelerate the increase of the Gathering Spirit Acupoint, the speed at which the internal force is converted into spiritual power will also be accelerated.

Now, the key issue is to find the twenty or thirty kinds of medicinal materials needed and then prepare them.

If you want to find all these medicinal materials, it is difficult to do so in a short time. The next day, Xia Yan went to the auction house to find Mo Kai, the director of the pharmacy, but Mo Kai was not sure that he could find all these medicinal materials. Moreover, even the more precious medicinal materials that he was sure to find would take a week before they could be transported from Purple Leaf City to Jade Water City.

"Earth dog, look at this mountain, this city, this sky, how beautiful!" Xia Yan took a deep breath and breathed, looked at the scenery in the distance, and then turned to look at the earth dog beside him and sighed.

The earth dog looked at Xia Yan with green and faint eyes, as if he didn't understand, he whined twice, and his tail wagged back and forth.

Suddenly, a hare appeared in the sight of a man and a wolf.

The earth dog snorted, and its body rushed out like an arrow from the string, and its hooves galloped towards the hare. The hare seemed to be so frightened that it forgot to run away for a while, and when it reacted and wanted to run away, the big mouth of the earth dog had gently bitten its slender throat!

"Click~"

With a slight force, the hare's fragile neck broke.

Xia Yan frowned, his white clothes fluttered slightly, and then said with a smile: "I haven't eaten breakfast yet, so let's roast a hare and eat it!"

"Hey, put the rabbit down and get some firewood!" Xia Yan instructed the earth dog.

The dog's eyes lit up, and he put the hare down, jumped up happily, and slapped his hooves on the ground, and then ran towards the forest.

Nearby, there is a clear river.

The hares were skinned and washed, and the dogs were able to pick up a lot of dry branches.

A stuffle of green smoke rose from the brook. After a while, an intoxicating smell of meat spread to the surroundings. The earth dog squatted beside him, his eyes shining, his front paws constantly picking at the loose dust on the ground, his furry ears erected, and his green eyes motionless as he looked at the rabbit meat on the fire.

"After that, I don't have time to roast meat for you. Xia Yan shook his head and looked at the earth dog helplessly.

In the past three days, the earth dog seems to be addicted to eating.

"Woo~"

Reluctantly, he whispered twice.

.................................... "Brother Xia Yan......"

"Brother Xia Yan......"

Just as Xia Yan was dealing with a roasted rabbit leg, two shouts came from a distance from the direction of the official road in Yushui City.

"Huh, is the family looking for me?" Xia Yan paused slightly, stood up, and threw the remaining rabbit legs at the earth dog.

The earth dog jumped up, caught the rabbit's leg at once, and rolled on the ground excitedly.

Xia Yan stepped out under his feet, his figure flashed, and he soon came out of the woods, and sure enough, he saw two Xia family disciples wearing Xia family costumes rushing towards this side.

"Quick, Brother Xia Yan is there. A child of the Xia family had sharp eyes, saw Xia Yan, and hurriedly said to another person excitedly.

The two of them rushed over to Xia Yan excitedly.

"Brother Xia Yan!" When they got closer, both of them saluted respectfully.

Xia Yan nodded and asked, "You came here, could it be that the patriarch is looking for me?"

Only when the patriarch looks for him will he let the children of the family look around.

"Yes, Brother Xia Yan, the patriarch and the elders asked you to go back. A Xia family disciple said in an excited tone, looking a little nervous.

It was also the first time he spoke to Xia Yan.

"Oh, the patriarch asked me to go back, is there anything wrong?" Xia Yan couldn't help but wonder.

"This ...... We don't know, but today the elders are back in the family, as if the elders' meeting is going to be held. The children of the clan said honestly.

"Elders?well, I see, thank you!" Xia Yan frowned, nodded, and then smiled at the two and said.

"Brother Xia Yan......" The two of them flashed their eyes and glanced at each other, but they wanted to say something and stopped.

"Is there anything else?" Xia Yan asked with his eyebrows moving.

"That'...... We want to...... We want to ask you for martial arts!" After swallowing, a Xia family disciple finally gritted his teeth and said in a deep voice.

Xia Yan couldn't help but smile and said, "I may not have time now, I have to go back to see the patriarch." Then, in the afternoon, come to my courtyard. ”

The time to stay in Yushui City is only half a month, and it is not bad to use this time to improve the strength of the children of the family. Besides, now his strength has also reached a bottleneck, there is not much progress in the fusion of martial arts, and the transformation of internal force is only a wisp. Even if it takes more time, it doesn't have a big effect.

"Thank you, Brother Xia Yan!"

When the two heard this, they were immediately overjoyed and exclaimed.

"You don't have to be like this, you are all children of my Xia family, and the Xia family will rely on you in the future. Okay, I'll go back and see if the patriarch has anything to do with me. With that, Xia Yan's feet shook slightly, and his body instantly jumped ten meters away.

The two children of the Xia family only felt that the figure in front of them flickered, and then they disappeared Brother Xia Yan, and when they saw Xia Yan again, Xia Yan had already run a hundred meters away.

At this time, another shadow sprang out of the woods and chased after Brother Xia Yan.

"That's Brother Xia Yan's earth dog!"

A child of the Xia family said in astonishment.

An earth dog can also have such speed, these two people are really very incomprehensible.

"Let's go back too, Brother Xia Yan promised us to teach us martial arts in the afternoon, haha, now we can also become stronger, great." One of the children laughed, his expression excited.

Since the news of Xia Yan's fingering of a side disciple came out last time, many children of the Xia family have very much wanted to get Xia Yan's guidance. However, many people did not dare to look for Xia Yan directly. After all, there are too many disparities in status. It's like these two children of the Xia family are also looking for Xia Yan because the patriarch is looking for them, and then they ask Xia Yan to guide them by the way.

It's like an ordinary Xia family disciple who definitely can't just go to the patriarch to make a request! There's no way around it, and it's not realistic if everyone else is the same.

It is impossible for ordinary children to be equipped with a maid to call, which is also a symbol of status.

"Patriarch, what should I do when I go back at this time? Even if it is an elders' meeting, it has nothing to do with me!" On the way, Xia Yan's mind was still spinning with this thought.

At tea time, Xia Yan entered the north gate of Yushui City.

The Xia family is in the North District, so as soon as you enter the city, it is almost equivalent to arriving at the Xia family's mansion.

"Young Master Xia Yan!"

Outside the door, the guards saw Xia Yan saluting!

"The two big brothers worked hard!" Xia Yan nodded and smiled.

The front yard, the conference hall, the doors are open.

Outside the door, four Xia family guards stood straight. These four people are all Xia Yan's elders, and their strength is not weak. Probably, they are all cultivators who have opened up seventy or eighty martial arts meridians.

"Four uncles, it was the patriarch who asked me to ......"

Before Xia Yan finished speaking, the four of them bowed down and said solemnly to Xia Yan: "Young Master Xia Yan, please come in, the patriarch and the elders have been waiting for you for a long time." ”

Hearing this, Xia Yan couldn't help but be stunned again.

"Earth dog, wait outside!" After coming back to his senses, Xia Yan turned back to Earth Dog and said.

The earth dog let out a low whimper, and then lay down on the spot, his eyes rolling and sticking out his tongue to look around.

If this earth dog is different from ordinary earth dogs, it is only those green and faint eyes. When this earth dog stares at people with its eyes, it is indeed a little scary. Ordinary cultivators can be stared at creepy.

"Stomp~"

Footsteps stepped into the conference hall and let out a soft sound.

"I've seen the patriarchs, I've seen the elders!"

After Xia Yan entered the conference hall, he said respectfully.

This time, it was the second time that Xia Yan had entered the Xia Family Conference Hall. The first time I entered the conference hall, it was completely different from now. At that time, Xia Yan was still a forgotten waste, a waste who had not opened up a martial arts meridian. At that time, the patriarch and the elders couldn't have imagined that Xia Yan would become the hope of the Xia family, right?

Even the three elders who had the best relationship with Xia Yan never imagined that Xia Yan would have such a day.

In fact, it is no wonder that the patriarch and these elders, who would pay too much attention to the children who have no hope? This is the same in the entire continent.

Entering the conference hall again, Xia Yan's state of mind was already different, and the state of mind of the patriarch Xia Feilong and the elders was also completely different.

"Hehe, Xia Yan, you can sit down too!" Xia Feilong smiled and pointed to a chair on the long table and said to Xia Yan.

Xia Yan was stunned for a moment, sit down?

Only patriarchs and elders are eligible to participate in this council of elders. Even the Pavilion Elders were not eligible to participate. And now, the patriarch let him sit here?

In this case...... In Xia Yan's heart, many thoughts came to mind for a while.

"Xia Yan, there is a very important matter for the elders to pass today, and you need to be present. Come and sit down, too. Great Elder Xia Lai also beckoned to Xia Yan and said.

In the past, Great Elder Xia Lai sneered at Xia Yan, and Xia Yan's father abolished the arm of Great Elder's son Xia Guqiu, so it was no wonder that he would make a false statement about Xia Yan. Now, the situation is completely different.

Xia Lai, of course, also hopes that the Xia family will be strong, and he now hopes that Xia Yan can be stronger and stronger, and he will become a spirit master as soon as possible. This, he has the same wishes as everyone else!
