Chapter 30: The Key

Nie's Annex.

Nangong Xin'er was in Jiang Li's room, helping him clean up his clothes, bedding, and cleaning, looking a little lonely.

In fact, Nangong Xin'er had already come back a month ago. During that time, she traveled all over Ling County, but what she remembered was her life in Donglin City before she came to this county town.

Back then, her father Nangong Ba's cultivation was extremely high, and she was a hero in Donglin City, where the strong were like forests, and she lived a quiet life under the protection of his wings since she was a child.

But by the time she was fourteen years old, that all changed.

Nangong Xin'er still clearly remembers what a noble person she was to deal with the masters of the Nangong family at that time, and they all had forces that were incompatible with her father in Donglin City.

Nangong Xin'er didn't understand how the Nangong family caused this large group of Donglin City bigwigs to be killed, she only vaguely heard that it seemed to be about a treasure, and Nangong Ba had one of the keys to open the treasure.

Nangong Xin'er was very sad after her father's death, but this was only the beginning of cruelty. After Nangong Ba's death, those masters didn't seem to get what they wanted from him, so they shifted their attention to the Nangong family's descendants.

That night, the blood flowed like a river, the men of the Nangong family were basically slaughtered, and the women were humiliated, and life was worse than death!

Nangong Xin'er didn't know how she survived cleanly, she only remembered that when she woke up the next day, she was already in an underground Fengyue organization, and she had become a group of forbidden people that the organization was preparing to cultivate!

She didn't know if it was misfortune or luck!

In fact, Nangong Xin'er has never forgotten this blood feud, but it is a pity that when she was deeply trapped in that organization, she was forced to train all kinds of skills to please men every day, and she had no chance to contact the way of cultivation at all.

Now that she has stepped into the age of seventeen, she has not even had a chance to test her cultivation talent, which can be said to be extremely sad.

In the Mixed Yuan Continent, once you reach the age of fourteen, you must choose your most qualified system for cultivation, that is the recognized golden time for cultivation in the Mixed Yuan Continent, early the body has not developed enough, it is easy to destroy the foundation, and once the acupuncture points, bones, qi veins, meridians, magic circuits, etc. of the human body are fixed, it will be difficult to lay the foundation, which is equivalent to the road of cultivation is blocked!

Therefore, in this case like Nangong Xin'er, it can be said that she has basically lost her qualification to cultivate!

In the Mixed Yuan Continent, the strong are respected, everything depends on whose fist is big, whose power is strong, no strength, no cultivation, basically a person at the bottom, not to mention revenge, that is, to control their own destiny, it is extremely difficult.

Originally, Nangong Xin'er had never thought about this, but because she had already escaped from the dust, and because she had not cultivated in the Nie family, she was repeatedly bullied by the people of the Nie family and had no ability to resist, so she suddenly had a strong thirst for power.

It's a pity that her age has exceeded the golden time of cultivation for too long, unless she has a legendary-level top-level mixed yuan spiritual liquid, or a legendary anti-heaven exercise method that can change her qualifications, otherwise there is no hope at all.

Just when Nangong Xin'er felt sorry for herself, she heard the greeting of the servant outside, she was pretty, knowing that it was her son-in-law who was back, and hurriedly picked up the mirror to look at it, and saw that she was well-dressed, and her dress was very pleasing, and there was nothing messy, so she put down the mirror, hurriedly pushed open the door, and walked to the compound.

"Childe, you're back. Before she walked in front of Jiang Li, Nangong Xin'er had already screamed.

"Well, I'm back. Jiang Li said a little apologetically. He saw that Nangong Xin'er's eyebrows were more sad than before, thinking that it was caused by him snubbing her for too long, and he couldn't help but feel a little guilty in his heart.

Nangong Xin'er came to Jiang Li and looked at Jiang Li carefully.

I haven't seen it for more than a month, Jiang Li's complexion seems to have tanned, turning into that masculine wheat color, and the skin and flesh on her body are much stronger, no longer as white as she saw at the beginning. This is not to say that Jiang Li's appearance has become rougher, on the contrary, he has more of a masculine taste, which makes people close.

Nangong Xin'er thought that she hadn't seen him for so long, and she would definitely be very excited to meet again, after all, he was the first person she had cared for in all these years.

But when she came to him, she was stunned, because she didn't have the strong feelings she thought would appear.

What's wrong with me? Nangong Xin'er asked herself in her heart. Thinking that Jiang Li spent a huge amount of money to redeem her, and did not care about utilitarianism, he only paid for her, and did not ask for her, and moved her to be able to do it for this life, so he could only entrust it to him.

But when more than a month has passed, this emotion has slowly faded.

Nangong Xin'er really couldn't figure it out, and at this moment, Jiang Li shouted next to her, "Xin'er?"

“...... Son, you call me?"

"You're wandering so much, is there something on your mind?" Jiang Li asked. I used to see her a little sad, so forget it, but now even standing in front of me will be stunned and suddenly there is no movement, and Jiang Li can't be allowed not to care.

"I ......" Nangong Xin'er how could she say what she thought in her heart, she could only say some excuses to fool the past.

After that, Nangong Xin'er served Jiang Li to bathe and change clothes.

Jiang Li hadn't washed well for a long time since she had been cultivating in the wild, so of course she had to enjoy it when she went home. Feeling that Nangong Xin'er's enthusiasm for herself had cooled down slightly, Jiang Li was a lot more relieved.

In fact, Jiang Li never believed in the so-called love at first sight, and he didn't have this kind of charm. He understood that the reason why Nangong Xin'er had been so blue-eyed to her before was entirely because he had given her great kindness, so that she confused the difference between kindness and affection for a while.

It can be said that whether it is Jiang Li or Nangong Xin'er, they are just the kind of people in their early teens, and they still lack the essential cognition of feelings, which can only be appreciated if they have really experienced and precipitated.

So for Nangong Xin'er to be able to let go of her mind, Jiang Li is still relatively at ease.

This is not to say that Jiang Li has no thoughts about Nangong Xin'er at all, it is definitely self-deception, like Nangong Xin'er, who has reached the extreme in terms of appearance alone, there are few men who can be completely immune.

But Jiang Li didn't like women to repay his feelings with kindness, it was a very boring thing, and secondly, he was still young, and he had a long way to go in his cultivation, so he didn't put too much thought into it.

Moreover, Jiang Li knew that sooner or later he would have to leave Lingxian County and go to the Chaoyuan Continent. There is no need to dispute this, Jiang Li has a top terminal and has a bright future, he can't be confined to this small place in Lingxian, and it is impossible to take a woman around, and it is only a matter of time before he and Nangong Xin'er are separated.

He was afraid that Nangong Xin'er relied on him too much before, making it difficult for him to let go of her, but now he has no worries about this.

And Nangong Xin'er is also a person with a good mind, and she is older than Jiang Li, has more experience, and has a deeper understanding of human nature, so in less than half a day, she also figured out what was going on.

Of course, this does not mean that she has no feelings for Jiang Li. She's not a white-eyed wolf, so that's not it. She still has a high impression of Jiang Li, but she has abandoned the mentality of easily entrusting her for life.

On this night, Jiang Li took a refreshing bath, rested abundantly, and read Nie Tianming's collection of documents in the room, which was quite rewarding. Nangong Xin'er was not idle, busy making new clothes for Jiang Li. This is what she has wanted to do for a long time, to show her gratitude to Jiang Li.

Jiang Li saw her clumsy appearance, and pierced her delicate fingers several times, and was also quite heartbroken, and said: "Xin'er, you don't need to help me make clothes, it's not that I don't have money to buy them." ”

"But you never buy it, and you wear it all the same. Nangong Xin'er smiled at Jiang Li and insisted on finishing the clothes.

Jiang Li pondered for a moment, then went over and took off the cloth needle and thread in her hand, then looked into her eyes and said, "Do you remember when you helped me shake the bed board, I promised to do one thing for you?" ”

Nangong Xin'er's face was blushing, of course she remembered, after waking up that time, she also found that her shirt had been taken off, and she slept with Jiang Li, and was even broken by the Nie family early in the morning, which was very embarrassing. It's just that she still hasn't figured it out, what is the use of Jiang Li shaking that bed board?

"I thought you were joking. Nangong Xin'er said with a smile.

"I never took that as a joke. Jiang Li said solemnly. In Nangong Xin'er's eyes, of course, it was a joke, but for Jiang Li, it was a turning point in his life, the first time he earned enough money to exchange the exercises, and he got through the first difficulty of coming to the Mixed Yuan Continent. He will never forget Nangong Xin'er's help to him.

Moreover, he also wanted to do something for Nangong Xin'er. After he came back, he found that the sorrow between Nangong Xin'er's eyebrows was becoming more and more obvious, and he already knew that it was not because of his own neglect, but he didn't want to ask too much, so he could only think of this way.

"Do you really want to do something for me?" Seeing Jiang Li's serious expression, Nangong Xin'er stopped laughing.

"That's right. Whatever you want me to do for you, as long as it is within my ability, I can help you!" Jiang Li said categorically.

"That'...... Can you help me test the cultivation qualifications, the cultivation qualifications in the direction of each system. Nangong Xin'er looked at Jiang Li expectantly, and there was a rare trace of persistence on her face.

“...... Do you want me to help you test your cultivation qualifications? Have you never tested before?" Jiang Li was taken aback. Testing cultivation qualifications, this is something that almost everyone has to do at the age of fourteen, just like people from the earth plane who enter school, it is related to a person's future and future. Nangong Xin'er is now seventeen years old, and she hasn't tested her cultivation qualifications yet, how can Jiang Li not be surprised?

"That's right. Nangong Xin'er smiled bitterly and said, "Originally, when I was fourteen years old, my father planned to help me test it, but unfortunately I didn't have time to do it, so I ......" Her voice became lower and lower.

"I can naturally help you test it, it's just ......" Jiang Li looked at her seriously and said, testing a person's cultivation qualifications, in fact, it is not difficult, there are systematic testing methods in the Mixed Yuan Continent, as long as you learn a little, you can master it. "But do you really want to test? You know, no matter what the result is, you're only going to be disappointed!"

Nangong Xin'er naturally understood what Jiang Li meant, she had already passed the golden stage of cultivation and foundation laying, even if she helped her test, what could she do? The qualifications of each cultivation direction were mediocre, adding a sense of sorrow, and the qualifications in some aspects were good or even amazing, so what, what it brought was more regret and useless!

"You don't have to worry about this, I've already made up my mind!" Facing Jiang Li's eyes, Nangong Xin'er was entangled in her heart for a while, but she still decided to ask Jiang Li to help her do this, she didn't want to leave any regrets in her heart.
