Chapter 20: Parting
"It seems that the Imperial Power Continent is about to change. Tianyou's grandfather also said anxiously, and more worries in his heart came from the secrets of the Xiao family.
"Well, Xiao Lao, I have to go back and prepare, your Xiao family's affairs will be settled by yourself, if there are still comrades in the party, it will not matter if you are killed!" Shangguan Honglie disappeared after leaving his words, and a mirror was left in the place where the city lord disappeared.
The defense of Otsuki Castle was also closed.
There was no sound of rain, and Tianyou's sensitive ears listened to the words of the city lord and grandfather.
"Dark Spirit Bead, Evil City, Evil Heaven, Old Woman?" Tianyou didn't understand a word, but Grandpa's meaning of changing the sky, Tianyou understood that the Imperial Continent seemed to be about to start to be unstable.
"Huh?" The defense array of Dayue City was closed, and Tianyou turned into a soup chicken in an instant without preparation, but fortunately, my mother separated a true qi and formed a shield to block the heavy rain drenched in Tianyou.
"Six Elders, I hope that the matter of the Great Elder has nothing to do with you, if it is related, it is better to stand up yourself, otherwise you will understand. "Grandpa of Heavenly Blessing picked up the mirror left by the city lord.
"Mom, what is that?" asked Tianyou, puzzled.
"This is the Bright Heart Mirror, a treasure in the Heaven and Earth Level, and even cultivators under the Divine Departure Period cannot escape its clear heart light, and once they find a liar, they will be destroyed directly. However, this acquired spirit treasure also has the effect of calming the mind and calming the mind, and it is a great treasure for cultivators to cultivate. Tianyou's mother said to Tianyou, but her gaze swept over the remaining six elders.
Tianyou's body trembled for a while, "It's good that I don't have to be checked, otherwise the result will be self-evident." Tianyou was weak for a while, "It's good to be calm." ”
"Old patriarch, patriarch's wife, God pity Jian, we have never done anything to be sorry for the Xiao family, and it is also the meaning of Elder Xiao to target the young patriarch, and, and let a waste, no, no, old patriarch I mean to let the current Tianyou have such qualifications and cultivation, let him become the future of the family, we are indeed unwilling, but we have never done this in collusion with foreign clans, otherwise the sky will thunder. The second elder Xiao Yanming took the lead in kneeling, looked at Tianyou as he spoke, and swore directly.
Six bolts of lightning fell from the sky and fell directly into the bodies of the six people, needless to say that there was nothing wrong with these six people, but before Tianyou saw the eyes of the six elders, he immediately felt a scolding in his heart.
"You're the waste, your family is all waste. Oh, I think I'm scolding myself, too. Forget it, I don't care about you. ”
Tianyou pretended not to hear, and stood waiting for grandpa and mom to speak.
"Six Elders, I believe in your oath, now that Xiao Liangyu has escaped, the thorough investigation of the Great Elder's lineage will be handled by you, what about you, Second Elder? From now on, the economic lifeline of the Xiao family will begin to be in charge of you, and the Great Elder Clan will also be managed by you, until the next Great Elder is elected. Got it?"
"Yes, old patriarch. Second Elder Xiao Yanming knelt down and bowed happily.
"Alright, let's all get up. Here's to you, Second Elder. "Tianyou's grandfather threw the Mingxin Mirror to the Second Elder.
Treasures, also known as spiritual treasures, are divided into innate spiritual treasures and acquired spiritual treasures. Lingbao is different from weapon armor, especially the innate Lingbao belongs to heaven and earth, even if its role is single, it is also incomparable to weapons and armor.
There are special refiners in the Imperial Power Continent, in order to pursue the ultimate refining of weapons, so there are only a few people in the Imperial Power Continent who can successfully refine the acquired spirit treasure, and because it cannot be compared with the innate spirit treasure, the grade is divided into four types: heaven, earth, Xuan, and Huang, and the heavenly level is the closest to the innate spirit treasure.
"The role of this mirror of the heart Listening to my mother say this, it is no wonder that Yuxi has only been more than three years and has directly broken through from the acquired to the middle congenital stage. As for the use of the Xiao family, it is naturally because the relationship between the Xiao family and the Shangguan family is not ordinary. Of course, you still have to return it when you run out. ”
Recalling the knowledge about spiritual treasures that he saw in the Xiao family's library, Tianyou thought of the golden beads that had turned into a part of his body, and he didn't know if this golden bead was also a type of spiritual treasure? Fortunately, now the healing power of the golden bead is inherited by Tianyou.
And was stored in the body by a remnant soul, although he was saved by the remnant soul, but there is an unknown thing in the body, whether it is a blessing or a curse will be a variable in the future, so for Tianyou, the loss of the golden bead may be a good thing for him.
Back in the inner courtyard, Tianyou was taken into the secret room by his grandfather and mother again, and they talked all day, for cultivators, it may be nothing to not eat, drink or sleep for a few days.
But Tianyou, as a martial artist and a foodie, stayed in the woods in the back mountains for a few days, and in order to confirm his guess, it was difficult to sleep, and his mouth was light and tasteless, so after eating his mother's food, he went back to the house and fell asleep.
As for the Xiao family's great elder clan, an afternoon's effort, under the leadership of the second elder Xiao Yanming, and under the influence of the Ming Heart Mirror, all the inspections were completed, except for the personal butler of the great elder, all survived, and it was also confirmed that the clan was instigated against Tianyou, and nothing was known about collusion with foreign clans.
However, for Xiao Heng, the grandson of Elder Xiao, he couldn't accept the result of his grandfather's traitor, and in a hurry, he seemed to have lost his mind and became crazy. Suffering from Xiao Heng's talent, the second elder decided to put him under house arrest and found someone to take care of him, hoping that one day he would wake up on his own.
It is true that a cultivator's injuries and illnesses can be solved through pills, but in addition to the ability to practice qi, a cultivator's body is still an ordinary person, and once there is a problem mentally, it can only be seen whether it can be solved by itself.
The news that Tianyou is still alive was spread by grandpa and mother, and the whole city knew about it overnight, and this also let the people of the city know that the young patriarch of the Xiao family is still there, and the Xiao family still has no major fundamental problems, so that those who have a heart can restrain themselves.
And the city-wide arrest warrant against Xiao Liangyu, the elder of Xiao, was also posted in the major cities, villages and towns of the Imperial Power Continent for the first time.
Yuxi knew that Tianyou was not dead, and he returned to normal, and made up for his starving body, and the ban on freedom was lifted.
On the second day, the weather was slightly cold, but Yuxi went to Xiao's house early in the morning to look for Tianyou.
Knowing that the rain was coming, Tianyou didn't sleep anymore, but the family ate happily on the rainy night.
"It's a pity that Tsing Yi is no more, otherwise the family will be reunited. Although no one mentioned the marriage between Tianyou and Yuxi, at present, Yuxi's father seems to have no trouble coming to Tianyou for Yuxi, and seems to be beginning to admit this baby kiss. "God bless is not idle while eating head melons.
After breakfast, Tianyou and Yuxi left Xiao's house. Tianyou refining body is naturally unconscious of the slightly cold weather, but it can't be on rainy nights, and he wraps his whole body tightly in a light blue velvet robe.
At this moment, the same city, the same street, but because of the collusion of the elders of the Xiao family, there are many more patrolmen in the city.
But Tianyou knows that even masters such as the city lord and grandfather are worried, and whether these soldiers who are only innate can resist foreign invasion is a big question.
"After the coming-of-age ceremony, you must go as soon as possible to find something to solve the Xiao family's difficulties. Tianyou secretly made up his mind.
Delicious and fresh in the private room.
"Brother Doudou, do you really want to leave after the coming-of-age ceremony?" Yuxi asked with a pouting and a bad mood.
"Yuxi, I will be back as soon as possible. After all, it's been 16 years since my father left, and I have to go there too. Tianyou said with a friendly smile.
"Well, Brother Doudou is going to bring me something delicious and fun when he comes back. Of course, there are ......" Yuxi said and suddenly lowered her head with a blushing face, and couldn't go on.
"What else?" said the ruffian, sneering.
"Hmph, bad guy, ignore you. Yuxi stomped his feet and turned his head not to look at God.
"Okay, okay, Yuxi, I'll propose to your father when I come back, it's okay. "God bless an adult soul, where can the soul of a girl not guess the heart of a girl.
"Well, Brother Doudou, listen to you. Yuxi blushed and looked at Tianyou, full of happiness in her heart.
"But your father's attitude towards me, you know? ”
"That's not something Doudou is worried about. Brother Doudou, come and try this braised white deer tongue, I love it. You taste it too. Yuxi smiled and used chopsticks to pick up vegetables for Tianyou.
"You Nizi. Tianyou smiled and ate it, "Let you taste my fragrant tongue in the future, that's a good thing." Hey. Tianyou thought obscenely in his heart.
Yuxi, who is almost an adult, is more beautiful and fresh, takes off the velvet robe, and the measurements wrapped in the long skirt are more perfect, looking at the face without any rouge and vulgar water and the eyes brought by the cultivation of true qi, especially smelling the faint fragrance of the girl, Tianyou has the urge to kiss it, but thinking of his own exercises, Tianyou still endured.
Looking at Yuxi, who was shy, but couldn't hide his thoughts, Tianyou looked funny. However, looking at a table of delicious food, and this time he didn't have to pay for it himself, Tianyou split his mind, let go of his belly and ate it, and didn't say much.
Yuxi ate very little, and after eating a few bites, he watched Tianyou eat, looking at Tianyou, who was the essence of foodies, Yuxi rarely secretly covered her mouth and laughed.
"I said Brother Doudou, others don't dare to eat more of the delicious food made by these middle-level aestheticians, but Brother Doudou is like this every time, and his body is not burst by the energy inside, and Yuxi is so envious. Yuxi then looked at Tianyou with her chin pinched.
Tianyou doesn't blame Yuxi for snickering, but thinks of Tsing Yi, who has not seen her for 3 years, whether the 14-year-old has become more adorable like Yuxi.
"Yuxi, brother doesn't know why, since he started cultivating, that's it. Well, this braised tiger claw is really fragrant, do you want to taste it, Yuxi. ”
"I'm full, if you don't have enough, I'll order more, Brother Doudou. ”
Time is always short, and people always have a time of separation, although Tianyou and Yuxi have reached adulthood, but if they are not married, they must be separated.
The coming-of-age ceremonies of the Imperial Power Continent are extremely important, the children of ordinary families, whether rich or poor, will hold a big banquet, and the family and sect will pick out disciples who are over 16 years old or will turn 16 within the year to hold a big challenge competition, and select those who have potential, ambition, but do not meet the standards of cultivation to stay and continue to cultivate. Of course, it has been the object of key training, so it is naturally the object of challenge.
As far as the challenged and challenged are concerned, the winner of the challenge can rely on low cultivation to obtain the qualification to stay in the family and sect and continue to cultivate; if the challenged fails, he will be punished to a certain extent, and this is a matter of dignity, and he must not lose.
Therefore, no one side in the challenge is allowed to lose.
In the days leading up to the coming-of-age ceremony, cultivators who have reached the age of 16 or who will turn 16 within the year will use this time to cultivate and adjust their best state.
Three days later, the "March 3rd" Spring Victory Festival is the coming-of-age ceremony of the Xiao family, and Yuxi was also selected as the challenged person to go to the imperial capital to participate in the coming-of-age ceremony of the imperial power with her grandmother, so Yuxi will come to Tianyou early today morning. Tianyou also knew Yuxi's thoughts, so he didn't refuse Yuxi's intention.
Therefore, I don't know when we will be able to meet this parting, Tianyou looked at Yuxi who was crying and returned to the city lord's mansion, and silently said: "Wait for me to come back!"
