Zhang Mu flew over the Demon Beast Mountain Range, and the powerful aura made many Demon Beasts extremely frightened, and a few unlucky ones were solved by him casually, and he took off the magic core as pocket money.

However, when he arrived at Wutan City, Zhang Mu restrained his breath, and the Gu clan was beating the attention of the ancient emperor of the Xiao family at the moment, so he needed to be careful.

He changed Zhengang into the appearance of local decoration, walked into Utan City on foot, and stood on the busy streets, his mental power spread silently, and every grass and tree within a radius of more than ten kilometers, and the sound of people's speech, all of them were discovered by him.

His brain quickly processed the information, and soon learned the location of the Xiao family, and knew the big things in the entire city about the same.

Half an hour later, on the mountain behind Xiao's house, on the slope filled with mist, the ground soil suddenly appeared with yellow light, and then a shadow shot out, which was the curtain that came through the earth escape technique.

Looking at the rather imposing manor at the foot of the mountain, Zhang Mu sat down and cultivated with meaningful eyes.

For him now, the time of cultivation was only an instant, in fact, a few days had passed, and he didn't open his eyes until a young man in black appeared.

The boy was only fifteen or sixteen years old, with a pair of dark eyes with a maturity that did not belong to his peers, and his eyes were full of anger, unwillingness, and a hint of unyieldingness.

He climbed up with heavy steps, found a stone and sat down, and muttered to himself in grief, evidently greatly stimulated.

He is Xiao Yan, the child of destiny in this world, a rising figure, who is at a low point in his life at the moment.

Perhaps, Zhang Curtain is not here, and everything will develop according to the established trajectory.

"Today's insult, I don't want to suffer a second time!" Xiao Yan said hoarsely, his tone was firm, and he spread out his left hand, where there was a hideous blood mark, which was bright and shining, as if it was warning and mocking.

"Hehe, very ambitious, but who wouldn't talk big?"

A joking voice suddenly sounded in his ears, completely out of thin air, without the slightest trace.

While Zhang Mu spoke, the black ring on Xiao Yan's right hand trembled slightly, and then calmed down again.

And Xiao Yan's body trembled violently, and he instantly tensed tightly, and his sharp eyes looked left and right, but he didn't see a figure at all.

"Upper."

Zhang Mu reminded.

Xiao Yan looked up, a young man in a long robe was floating in the void, standing in the air, looking at him quietly, a pair of unfathomable eyes were like black holes, making him feel like his mind was about to fall.

"Who are you!"

He took a step back in shock, as far as he knew, the Douwang Volley needed to be transformed into wings with Dou Qi to do it, but this young man did not have a trace of Dou Wing or even Dou Qi on his body, could it be ......

Thinking of this, Xiao Yan's heart was turbulent, and he couldn't calm down.

This is an existence that surpasses the Dou King, and it is a strong man that he can't imagine!

Zhang Mu was very satisfied with Xiao Yan's performance, and said flatly: "It doesn't matter who I am, the important thing is that I can make you a strong man." ”

"Strong ......" Xiao Yan's eyes lit up, two flames came out from the depths, no one can appreciate the importance of strength better than him, what happened just now made him eager to become a strong man.

If he was strong, his father would not be humiliated, and that woman would not be qualified to be arrogant, and he would not face those sneering eyes every day.

But why did this person say that?

Xiao Yan glanced at Zhang Mu warily: "What do you mean?" ”

is worthy of being the protagonist, and he still remains calm in this situation, which is indeed unique.

Zhang Mu's eyes showed appreciation, and he glanced at the ring on Xiao Yan's right hand indifferently, and continued: "Your talent is good, it is worth cultivating by me, in other words, I can take you as an apprentice." ”

Xiao Yan was stunned, such a strong man actually took a fancy to him, isn't this a dream?

"You're not dreaming, now the opportunity is in front of you, only once, if you don't want to, I won't look for you again."

Zhang Mu's mind reading technique instantly understood Xiao Yan's thoughts, and he still said lightly.

Xiao Yan was extremely excited, and hurriedly bowed to Zhang Mu, and his expression became respectful.

Zhang Mu nodded with satisfaction, he had a task of cultivating forces, and he needed to find a genius like Xiao Yan to cultivate.

He looked at Xiao Yan, who was standing on the ground with some apprehension, and said meaningfully: "Do you want to know why you have regressed instead of cultivating for more than three years?" ”

"Yes!"

Xiao Yan blurted out without thinking, this is something that has plagued him for many years, obviously the speed at which he absorbs Dou Qi has increased unabated, why does his cultivation still regress?

"The reason is in the ring you are wearing." Zhang Mu secretly shocked the medicine elder in the ring, and said directly: "It is it that absorbs the fighting spirit that you have worked so hard to cultivate, and makes you a waste material in the eyes of people." ”

"Rings?" Xiao Yan looked down suspiciously, this was left to him by his mother, how could he absorb his fighting spirit.

"You take off the ring and try to cultivate." Zhang Mu was noncommittal.

"I'll try."

Xiao Yan took off the ring suspiciously and put it aside, then sat down cross-legged, and as soon as he tried to run the exercise, his expression was shocked, and the strange phenomenon that he had been unable to gather fighting energy disappeared!

He suppressed his excitement and ran the exercises, feeling the fighting spirit surging like a loose horse, he was happy and angry, jumped up and kicked the ring out with one kick.

"I've been harmed by a ring for so many years and didn't know it, it's really stupid."

Xiao Yan smiled bitterly, if he had known that it was a ring problem, he would not have fallen to today.

At this time, the ring that he kicked down the cliff changed its original trajectory, as if it was alive, and wanted to escape into the distance.

"Since I found you, how can I let you leave casually."

The sound of the curtain sounded next to the ring, and then the ring was instantly imprisoned, unable to move anymore.

On the stone wall, Zhang Mu was still expressionless, looking at Xiao Yan, whose emotions had gradually calmed down, and said: "Sai Weng is not blessed, you may have been delayed for a few years, but it is not without benefits. ”

"First of all, your foundation has been strengthened in a few years, far stronger than other peers, and secondly, your heart is also more resilient and calm than before, these things are more important in the long run than your talent, which is one of the reasons why I am interested in you."

Xiao Yan thought thoughtfully, recalled what had happened in the past three years, and combined with Zhang Mu's words, he faintly saw more things.

But thinking of what happened today, the anger in his heart came out again, and he became depressed again: "Teacher, I have been delayed for three years, and I am too far behind others at the moment, even if I am firm-minded, can I catch up?" ”

"Do you know how many years I've been cultivating?"

Xiao Yan was stunned for a moment, a little incomprehensible.

"The amount of time I actually spent cultivating is only ten years, and the rest of the time I am contemplating enlightenment, how much time do you think you need for me to cultivate?"

"Teacher, ......" Xiao Yan was a little shocked, he didn't think that Zhang Mu would be idle to lie to him, that is to say, at this moment, Zhang Mu, who was extremely powerful in his eyes, had not been cultivating for a long time.

In this way, under the guidance of the teacher, you will definitely be able to catch up with others.

"Teacher, can I really catch up with the others?"

"You shouldn't be suspicious, but ask me what to do." Zhang Mu said proudly: "There are too many treasures in this world to improve your cultivation speed, as long as you are qualified to bear it, you will have a chance to reach my point within ten years." ”

"Thank you for reminding me, I must work hard." Xiao Yan said excitedly, he saw hope from Zhang Mu and gained great confidence.

"You go back first, get used to your recovered body, and I'll come back to you in the evening."

Zhang Mu waved his hand and sent Xiao Yan away.

After Xiao Yan left, he beckoned to the bottom of the cliff, and a black ring flew over and hovered in front of him.

As he looked at the appearance of the ring, with a pop, a white flame burst out, and instead of attacking Zhang Mu, he tried to flee instead.

"Do you still want to escape?"

Zhang Mu muttered, a glint flashing in his eyes, and then the void seemed to freeze, and the white flames collided with an invisible barrier, and then he was imprisoned and unable to move.
