Time flies, time flies, spring goes to autumn, flowers bloom, and ten years later in a blink of an eye.

Sixteen-year-old Xie Qingning was already born in the country and the city, his body was extremely tall, his skin was as white as the snow in the first spring, and his phoenix eyes were extraordinarily bright, like two black pearls.

At this moment, she hurriedly walked into the house of "Zhuangyuan Lane" with the zither and the smoke and rain, the two girls had already become dignified and introverted under her creation, and the breath was not exposed, especially the zither, holding her head high like the big girl ring in the house of a big family, looking imposing and very aura.

Of course, her aura is only shown in front of outsiders, and she is still cautious in front of her master, and she is very thoughtful and considerate in her service.

"Is Xie Tan seriously injured?" When he hurriedly walked through the first courtyard, Xie Qingning couldn't help but ask.

"Although I hurt my meridians, I don't have to worry about my life." The words of the Zheng were concise, which made Xie Qingning breathe a sigh of relief.

In the past ten years, Xie Tan has been running around and working hard for her, and has already become her confidant and family, so when she heard the news of the other party's injury, she almost immediately rushed back from the family study, and the anxiety in her heart can be imagined.

Fortunately, Xie Tan's injuries were not fatal, otherwise Xie Qingning would not have been resigned, even if the person who started was likely to be a powerful and high-ranking official elsewhere or a family of immortal cultivators, she would not hesitate to do so.

Half an hour later, Xie Tan woke up slowly, and his pupils reflected Xie Qingning standing alone in front of the window, looking at the canna in the courtyard swaying gently in the wind, and I don't know whether it was a distraction or a contemplative silhouette, he hurriedly turned over and sat up and said, "Miss Seven, why are you here?" ”

Xie Qingning, who heard the voice, immediately turned around and walked over, moved a cotton pestle and sat on the edge of the bed and asked, "What's the matter?" Tell me. ”

"It's nothing, it's just a quarrel with someone." Xie Tan's gaze wandered a little, obviously unwilling to tell the truth, Xie Qingning had no choice but to sink his face and force him to say, "I want to listen to the truth." ”

Xie Tan was helpless, so he had to slowly tell the cause and effect.

It turned out that he had been secretly helping Xie Qingning sell the elixir all these years, and then used the money to exchange for the elixir and spiritual herb, which was transported back to Lanling City from all over the country and stored in Xie Qingning's house in "Zhuangyuan Lane" for her to squander the alchemy and improve her realm. Ten years later, with the guidance of Fanmo, Xie Qingning has now successfully promoted to a third-grade Dan Master, and occasionally can refine high-grade pills, which really surprised Xie Tan.

If he agreed to do things for Xie Qingning just because he had nowhere to go and find a job to support his family, then today, he has truly regarded Miss Seven as his master, and is willing to take the lead for her and obey all her orders.

After all, it is difficult to find a Dan master in this world, and Xie Fu lacks this kind of talent, and the Dan Dao course in clan studies always stays at the basic theoretical level, which cannot bring any value to the children of the Xie family at all, so Xie Qingning is actually self-taught, and he is about to surpass the realm of Zheng Pingbai in just ten years, how can such a heavenly posture and speed not make Xie Tan convinced and willing to be a servant?

However, Xie Qingning had never treated him as a servant, not only that, but anyone who had refined a mid-to-high-grade pill would give him a few pills to help him walk more smoothly on the path of cultivation, which firmly grasped his heart, not just interests.

But it is precisely because it is difficult to find Dan masters in this world, and pills are also not available, so when Xie Tan has been in and out of the Dan Dao trading markets in various places over the years, in exchange for a lot of value, he will attract the attention of the two forces.

The first is a merchant who does Dan Dao business with him, and the second is a wicked person who covets the pill in his hand.

Xie Tan's injury this time was because he auctioned off ten third-grade super pills in Chaoyang City, the largest immortal city in Xizhou, which attracted the attention of a group of illegal people, who not only intercepted him halfway, but even wanted to forcibly extract a confession from him, forcing him to reveal the identity of the alchemist behind the scenes, and he didn't know what he wanted to do.

Fortunately, Xie Qingning was worried about his safety, so he had already hired four loose cultivators as bodyguards for him, and they were also driven by him, if it weren't for the long-term cooperation of the five of them, there would be no way to escape from Chaoyang City safely, although they were all injured, they were not fatal.

After listening to what happened, Xie Qingning's face was slightly cold, "Can you see the identity of those people?" ”

"No, but I saw that their swords were engraved with a symbol, and on the way back, I asked someone to inquire, it was a family emblem surnamed Fei in Chaoyang City, and this Fei did monopolize the pill business in Xizhou, I heard that their family supported a four-grade pill master with a lot of money, and all the economic resources in their house depend on pills, and the price of our pills will inevitably make them suffer some small losses, presumably this disaster is for this reason." Xie Tan replied while guessing.

Xie Qingning nodded, although she had never heard of this Fei family, she was not famous in her previous life, so she would not have a place in the capital of Shangjing. But since someone made the decision to hit her, they always wanted to investigate the matter thoroughly and seek justice for Xie Tan and the four guards.

Hearing that she was going to Xizhou together, Xie Tan was shocked and said, "Miss Seven." ”

"Why?" Xie Qingning raised his eyebrows.

"Do you know, that Xizhou is on the verge of the wasteland, and the wasteland is full of brutes and aliens, so although that area is prosperous and lively, it is the most mixed place among the five continents, the situation is more complicated than you can imagine, but it is not as prosperous and stable as Lanling City, and there is a city lord in charge, no one dares to make a mistake casually."

Xie Tan's words did not make Xie Qingning change his mind, but said with a smile, "This is very good, my cultivation realm has been stuck in the late stage of foundation building for more than a year, take this opportunity to travel and increase my knowledge, maybe it will be of great help to break through to the Great Perfection realm, it just so happens that there are endless beasts and aliens over there, the more opportunities for contact, the more helpful it will be for my cultivation, and I want to go even more." ”

"Miss Seven, you ......," Xie Tan was shocked, and when he wanted to persuade again, Xie Qingning had already comforted him softly, "Don't worry, I'm not going alone, it just so happened that I discussed with the third brother a few days ago, and asked a few friends to go out to travel together, and there is no need to call others, just you, me, the third brother, Lan Gongzi, Ling Feng and Qing Ze." It just so happened that Bang Zheng had just broken through to the early stage of foundation building, and he needed to travel to stabilize the realm, so it was decided. ”

In this way, Xie Tan had nothing to say, so he could only hurry up and recuperate from his injuries, so as to get out of bed as soon as possible and not drag down the progress of his master.

But in his heart, he was also surprised and admired that his master's cultivation had broken through to the late stage of foundation building, he remembered that when he left Lanling City three years ago, the master had just reached the middle stage of foundation building, right? It's only been three years and you've broken through again? Is she a demon?

Thinking that he is nineteen years old this year, and his cultivation is still in the early stage of foundation building, he is quite troubled in his heart, and then he heard that the girl who has broken through to the same level as him, and the sourness in his heart is naturally indescribable, so he swore in secret that he must study hard and practice hard, and catch up with the master's progress as soon as possible, even if he can't surpass her, but he can't fall too far, otherwise what face and qualifications will he have to do things for his master in the future?

He knew that the master's secret alchemy was hidden from the Xie family, this was her privacy, and it was also her hole card, so the auction of the elixir and the collection of the spirit herb elixir were very secret and important things for the master, and he had always been proud of being able to hold this position, so he must not drag down the master and delay her progress! He thought.
