After Xia Yu left the Zhenghua Palace, the Eight Sages of Taixue discussed for a while, and then they also left. When leaving, Cao Rui suddenly found that the old child was still sitting on the chair, without a trace of leaving, and he couldn't help but ask curiously: "Senior Brother Cheng is not leaving?"

The old child pursed his lips and smiled, revealing two sweet dimples: "You guys go first." ”

Among the Eight Sages of Taixue, only Tianming and Lao Xiao'er were the first generation disciples of Tai Academy, so the relationship between the two of them was the best, and many of the top secrets in the academy were only known to the two of them.

"Let's go, Cao Rui, don't grind. At this time, Zhao Wu walked over and glanced at Cao Rui. He knew that the old child must have something to say to Tianming.

Cao Rui immediately understood, and saluted Tianming and the old child: "That junior brother will leave first." ”

After the rest of the people left, only Tianming and the old children were left in the huge Zhenghua Palace.

"Senior Brother Cheng, do you have something to do?" Tianming has always disliked to blame outsiders, so he asked directly.

The old child smiled slightly: "I'm just a little surprised, you would entrust such an important task to Xia Yu, so I'm a little curious, are you cultivating a successor?"

Tianming didn't hesitate at all, and immediately replied: "Xia Yu does have the potential to become my successor, spiritism, alchemy, and a new sword vein, this series of amazing achievements is really dazzling, I ask myself that when he is in this realm, I am afraid that he is not even half as good as him." This reform plan also shows that he is also quite talented in management. However, it is too early to say that he is my successor. A qiē depends on his appearance in the courtyard of this session. ”

"Hehe, although I also like Xia Yu's kid, but Tianming, you also know that Xue Hao is about to go out, as well as Tian Xin, Wu Tian and Qian Xiaozhi, these four people are not fuel-efficient lamps, this time they have been cultivating in the Forest of Trapped Beasts for a year, and their strength must have risen greatly. Especially Xue Hao, since the establishment of the Datai Academy, he has never seen a disciple with such high qualifications. Even if it is to break through the Great Yuan Realm, it is extremely possible. I'm afraid this time there will be a big competition in the hospital. It's hard for Xia Yu to rank in the top five. The old boy said.

After listening to the old child's words, Tianming thought about it for a while, and nodded in agreement: "Indeed, as you said, if Xue Hao and the others get out." This year, there are upstarts like Xia Yu and Meng Siqi. This year's in-hospital competition is really quite interesting. ”

"Don't forget. And the ghost boy of the Hundred Ghost Country. The old kid added.

Speaking of Baili, Tianming's expression couldn't help but change slightly, the Hundred Ghost Country was a very embarrassing existence for Huaguo. Because the current Hundred Ghost King used to be a descendant disciple of Tai Academy, Baili, as the prince of Hundred Ghost Country, naturally attracted special attention from Tianming.

"It's been three months since Baili entered the Land of the Living Dead. Tianming said.

"Almost. But I really didn't expect that Baili would have such great courage, the ghost place in the land of the living dead, even the elders didn't dare to enter it at will, he actually proposed to enter the land of the living dead to practice, what a crazy guy. "The old child has also entered the land of the living dead, and as long as he recalls all the horrors he encountered when he practiced there, the old child will still feel a chill in his heart now. The Land of the Living Dead is a true purgatory on earth, a place that has been utterly forsaken by God.

The old boy continued: "Among the newcomers this year, there are only Xia Yu and Baili, both of whom have extremely high potential, but unfortunately, Baili is destined to leave Tai Academy." ”

"Senior Brother Cheng, you have left one behind, among this year's freshmen, there are not only Xia Yu and Baili. Tianming said suddenly.

"Oh?!" the old kid couldn't help but be interested, he thought he had seen through all the new students this year, but Tianming would never look away. "Who am I left behind?"

"That person's name is Sun Guangyi. ”

"Sun Guangyi?" the old child furrowed a pair of shallow eyebrows, and thought about it carefully, but there was no trace of impression. "I haven't heard of this person, he doesn't seem to be famous, right?"

Tianming looked at the old child with a very serious expression: "Although this Sun Guangyi has been very quiet since he entered the Tai Academy, I have only seen him a few times from afar, but I have an intuition, this person is extremely not simple, I am afraid that his strength ...... It will be above the summer rain and a hundred miles. ”

The old child stared at Tianming's serious face, as if he couldn't believe it, and was very surprised, and a pair of eyes slowly widened......

After Xia Yu returned home, he was hit in the face by an envelope, "There is your letter." Meng Siqi said.

"My letter?" Xia Yu picked up the envelope and looked at it, only to see that there were three signatures on it, namely Xia Wan, Xia Xue and Bai Pengfei. Seeing these familiar names, Xia Yu couldn't help but laugh happily.

Seeing Xia Yu smiling so brightly, Meng Siqi couldn't help but be curious: "From your hometown?"

"Well, yes. Xia Yu couldn't wait to open the envelope, and there were a total of three letters inside, one for each person. Then, Xia Yu immediately sat down and read it with relish.

The first letter was Wan'er's, Xia Yu didn't even need to look at the signature, as soon as he looked at the round and cute font, he guessed that it was written by Wan'er. Wan'er's letter is full of a girl's innocence, how much she has grown taller, Yuan Li has cultivated to the twenty-ninth layer, the young master of a certain family has proposed to her again, a delicious restaurant has been built in Tongming City, Xia Xue has trained a certain clansman and the like, although they are all short and trivial things in some parents, but they are full of happiness and joy, reading her letter, Xia Yu will also laugh.

The second letter is from Sun Guangyi, and his words are still so "wild and uninhibited". In the letter, he boasted about the achievements of the Xia and Bai families, how much money they earned, which new trade routes they opened, and which families in which towns they had established relationships. What else to say, the money he earns now is enough to buy the entire Tongming City, and when Xia Yu comes back, he will take care of Xia Yu.

The third letter is Xia Xue's, but when it comes to her, the content is a little heavy. Xia Xue briefly but comprehensively summarized the recent situation of the Xia family, the Bai family and Tongming City, she said in the letter, recently, Zheng Guo was transferred from elsewhere to a heavy army in Yueshan City, the border friction between Zheng Guo and Wei Guo is becoming increasingly severe, Zheng Guo has always been an aggressive posture, and the wind helmet city on the border is under great pressure, but Wang Du did not say anything at all, which made Xia Xue very worried. She knew that King Zheng's ambitions were very big, and the defeat of Li Guo was inevitable, and the next target was probably to defend the country, but the table of the royal capital made her very worried, King Wei and some powerful people didn't seem to care about the life or death of the northerners at all, she was afraid that the king would betray them and lose the four northern cities to Zheng Guo in exchange for peace.

Finally closing Xia Xue's letter, Xia Yu couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and felt a little uneasy in his heart, if something happened to Tongming City, he would definitely leave Tai Academy and go back without hesitation.

"What's wrong?" Meng Siqi sat next to Xia Yu, seeing that Xia Yu was originally in a good mood, but after reading the letter, he suddenly frowned, and couldn't help but feel strange and asked. "Is something happening to my hometown?"

"My hometown is fine, but now the world is not peaceful, you also know, the war between Zheng Guo and Li Guo, Zheng Guo is afraid that he will win soon, I am worried that Zheng Guo's next goal is to defend the country. Xia Yu said worriedly.

"Then don't you have to worry? Zheng Guo's next target is definitely your defense of the country, your defense of the country is so weak, if I were King Zheng, I would have been the first to hit you. Meng Siqi was straightforward and said immediately. "My father also said that King Zheng is ambitious, and the annexation of Li is not the end, but only the beginning. ”

Listening to Meng Siqi's words, Xia Yu couldn't help but fall into deep thought, indeed as she said, Zheng Wei's war is inevitable, after annexing Li Guo, Zheng Guo will become a new superpower, and then Wei Guo will be a piece of meat on Zheng Guo's mouth, Zheng Guo can eat as much as he wants, and Tongming City will definitely be swallowed up by war.

Tongming City gave birth to Xia Yu and raised Xia Yu, and Xia Yu never wanted Tongming City to be destroyed. Take a million steps back, even if you can't save the country and Tongming City, Xia Yu must save the Xia family, the Bai family and the Li family, and keep Wan'er and the others safe. But with Xia Yu's current strength, he can't control a war at all, he has to become stronger!

After thinking about it left and right, Xia Yu suddenly turned his head, looked at Meng Siqi very seriously, and said, "Meng Siqi, I want to retreat!" (to be continued......)
