Chapter 2 The Xiao Family
"How is it possible, how can this be?" The doorman looked at his palm in disbelief, he had been in the spirit realm five for two or three years, and one palm had the power of a thousand catties, how could he not even be able to repel a young man in the spirit realm fourfold, and his disbelieving gaze gradually turned to Yuan Chen's body.
"Spirit Realm Fivefold, how is it possible?" The stunned expression gradually froze on the doorman's face.
"Do you think that everyone will be like you for a few years of stagnation, who is a waste and who is low. Yuan Chen glanced at the doorman with a surprised face, and then pulled Xiao Feng to continue walking, without looking at the down-and-out doorman, martial arts are more ambitious than heart, these people will be far behind by themselves in the future, Yuan Chen believes that he has that strength.
Entering the Xiao family from the back door, you can still feel the strength of the four major forces in the ancient town, the magnificent building, the courtyard-style structure, the various flower and bird carvings on the walls, and the load-bearing pillars that support the surrounding are all made of good yew wood, according to Yuan Chen from Xiao Feng, each yew tree can only be purchased with at least a thousand gold, this is only the living environment of the next people, which shows how huge the four major forces of Yangyan Ancient Town are.
Walk a short distance into a courtyard, there is a corridor next to the courtyard, all kinds of precious horses compete to neigh, as if seeing Xiao Feng is very happy, welcoming the old man home, this is the home where Yuan Chen and Xiao Feng live, in the Xiao family's house can be said to be the worst, three of the four rooms are full of sundries, only one room can accommodate Yuan Chen and Xiao Feng to live, but Xiao Feng doesn't care about these things outside his body at all, just tidy up Yuan Chen's sleeper, but he simply put up a thatch and fell asleep.
Time passes slowly, there is still half an hour left at noon, and the Xiao family's monthly level assessment will be opened, and it is the tradition of the Xiao family to be tested every month, this habit is common in the family, whether it is for the younger generation's martial arts practice, or for the discovery of excellent seedlings It is a good method, and in the test, anyone who has reached the fivefold or more spiritual realm can go to the martial arts pavilion in the Xiao family's martial arts hall to obtain a martial art and learn it, and this reward is open to all Xiao family members, even including the Xiao family guards, Maids and all other subordinates, this means is not only an incentive for the Xiao family's subordinates to practice and strengthen themselves so that they can better protect the Xiao family, but also can win people's hearts, so that these subordinates have a stronger sense of belonging to the Xiao family, and they have to admire the family's means are different.
"Xiaochen, the level assessment is about to start, pack up and get ready to go. Xiao Feng's voice sounded outside the courtyard.
"Okay, Grandpa Xiao. Walking out of the cultivation state, Yuan Chen stretched his body, and the sound of popping beans sounded from inside Yuan Chen's body.
"Cool. Looking at his hands and feeling his strength, Yuan Chen couldn't help but smile, in fact, Yuan Chen's cultivation was not like most of the children of the Xiao family, he had been boiling his muscles and bones since he was five or six years old, constantly exercising his limbs, tempering his internal organs, and improving his realm step by step, this year's Yuan Chen of Fang Twelve was actually just an ordinary person who did not cultivate at all half a year ago, and his cultivation realm only started three months ago, because Xiao Feng said that Yuan Chen's talent was still good and he did not need to enter the martial arts road too early, but Yuan Chen learned from the outside that the earlier the martial arts are tempered, the easier it is to stimulate the potential of the body, and only then can he gradually improve his realm, But for Xiao Feng's words, Yuan Chen has always been convinced, and Xiao Feng is dependent on him, he has regarded Xiao Feng as his own grandfather, although Xiao Feng's explanation of many things is vague, but Yuan Chen does not ask, maybe when the time comes, Xiao Feng will naturally say it.
Greeted Xiao Feng, who was feeding the horses in the stable, and Yuan Chen walked towards the inner courtyard of the Xiao family.
The Xiao family is divided into the inner courtyard and the outer courtyard, the inner courtyard is where the Xiao family lives and the outer courtyard is where the Xiao family lives, Yuan Chen's residence is the most remote place in the outer courtyard, and it is not a short distance from the inner courtyard.
Walking on the obsidian-paved path of the Xiao family, although there are not many people on the path, there are also many descendants like Yuan Chen who go to the level assessment, hoping to one day be able to turn a dragon into a phoenix.
After walking along the path for a while and arriving at the inner courtyard of the Xiao family, Yuan Chen handed over the pass to the guards of the inner courtyard of the Xiao family, and entered the inner courtyard of the Xiao family, "The inner courtyard and the outer courtyard of the Xiao family are really the difference between heaven and earth, look at this gorgeous and luxurious building, it is dotted with precious flowers and plants everywhere, and even the strength of the guards is far greater than that of the outer courtyard, I am afraid that at least the spiritual power has entered the body to reach the spiritual realm of the seventh heaven or above." Yuan Chen thought to himself.
The time has slowly reached noon, and the martial arts square in front of the martial arts hall is full of people, there are many people in the Xiao family, but most of them are still the descendants of the Xiao family's outer courtyard, and the age is generally about fourteen years old, just when he was a teenager, Yuan Chen was already considered young among the heirs of the outer courtyard, after all, the martial arts cultivation in the outer courtyard is not the same as the martial arts cultivation in the inner courtyard, and the auxiliary cultivation of the spiritual herb elixir is very rare, plus the difference in its own roots and bones, it is even more impossible to keep up with the cultivation progress of the Xiao family in the inner courtyard, so if the cultivation in the outer courtyard is equivalent to the inner courtyard, it is extremely talented, and the Xiao family, which is the master, will of course focus on cultivation, Therefore, many heirs of the outer courtyard have entered the inner courtyard to cultivate.
Yuan Chen looked at the hour and saw that it was about noon, so he rested on the stone seat on the periphery of the martial arts square, waiting for the martial arts level evaluation to begin.
Not far away, there were two people who also walked towards this side, the person who came from the direction of the inner clan, one of them looked at the martial arts square and immediately pursed his lips, his eyes looked at the heirs of the outer courtyard arrogantly, and there was a deep disdain in his eyes.
"A group of ants are scrambling to enter the inner courtyard of my Xiao family, but I don't know that entering the inner courtyard is also our Xiao family's dog, the dog has to do what a dog should do, just watch the door, thinking about becoming stronger every day, thinking about changing fate, ridiculous. The man whispered.
Although the voice is not loud, the heirs on the martial arts square are all martial arts practitioners, and their hearing is a hundred times stronger than that of ordinary people, how can they not hear it, and they looked back at the people who came angrily, but when they saw the people who came, everyone lowered their heads, although they were angry in their hearts, they could only endure it.
The person who said that he was alive was Xiao Li, who slapped Yuan Chen five days ago, although Xiao Li had just entered the spiritual realm fivefold not long ago, many of the people had entered the spiritual realm fivefold for a long time, and there were even those in the spiritual realm who were not so afraid of Xiao Li, but Xiao Li's second brother Xiao Hong was extremely strong, and he was already the strength of the sixfold peak of the spiritual realm two months ago, and now he was impacting the sevenfold spiritual realm, and the people present at the evaluation were all below the sevenfold spiritual realm, so no one dared to refute.
And Xiao Li's second brother Xiao Hong is very domineering and extremely protective, two months ago, an heir of the outer courtyard was insulted by Xiao Li's words, and the heir of the outer courtyard was humiliated, and Xiao Li had a fight, at that time, Xiao Li only had four spiritual realms, and the heirs of the outer courtyard had six spiritual realms, you can imagine the consequences, Xiao Li was injured. But the good times didn't last long, and in the afternoon of the same day, Xiao Li found his second brother Xiao Hong, who had the strength of the sixfold peak of the spiritual realm, and Xiao Hong directly overbearingly beat the limbs of the heir of the outer courtyard, abolished the cultivation, and threw it out of the outer courtyard of the Xiao family.
Therefore, even if the heirs of the outer courtyards of the Martial Arts Square are extremely reluctant in their hearts now, in order to continue to survive in the Xiao family, they cannot have a trace of contradiction with Xiao Li, after all, no one wants to die.
Seeing the frightened eyes and the expressions of those outer courtyard heirs sitting on the martial arts square, Xiao Li felt that this feeling was a kind of enjoyment, at this moment his vanity was bursting, Xiao Li's eyes gradually looked from the inside of the martial arts square to the outside, at this time a person appeared in his eyes, that person did not have the same fearful eyes as those outer courtyard heirs, and the look of seeking a way to survive, but smiled at him, but the smile was full of disdain for him, at least Xiao Li thought so.
A nameless fire burned in Xiao Li's chest, "Yuan Chen, the qualification of your grandson of the horseman, has also come to test the level, are you worthy? Or raise horses in your stable, this may be your only way out in the future, accompany Young Master Ben to travel, Young Master Ben may consider giving you more gold coins." Xiao Li shouted.
"Let me accompany you on a trip? Xiao Li, you family-dependent moth, pathetic clown, a waste, deserve to talk to me like this. "Yuan Chen does not grovel at all because of Xiao Li's identity, the tenacious heart in the road of martial arts is the most important, if you are subservient, how can you talk about laughing and proud of the world.
Xiao Li is fifteen years old, and it takes eight years to cultivate spiritual power to be worthy of the fifth level of the spiritual realm, this is still under the blessing of the Xiao family who spared no effort to use the spiritual herb elixir, otherwise Xiao Li would not be able to reach the fivefold strength of the spiritual realm, Yuan Chen's cultivation has caught up with Xiao Li in less than half a year, and even the real cultivation realm is only three months, so Xiao Li's waste is also derived from this.
"Yuanchen, you are also a member of the Xiao family's outer courtyard, and you also eat the Xiao family's food, how can you talk to Young Master Xiao Li?
This person Yuan Chen knows, Xiao Li's lackey Ding Zhong, the strength of the spiritual realm, because he has a good mouth, he holds Xiao Li every day, Xiao Li specially allowed him to enter the inner courtyard to live, this incident made Ding Zhong do evil every day in the outer courtyard, and did all the bad things and told him that he was a person from the inner court, so that a group of people in the outer court dared to be angry and dare not speak, but because of the strength of Xiao Li and Xiao Hong, they had to swallow their anger.
