Chapter 32: Ling Tianfu
"Tell the head of the house, a messenger came outside, saying that he had brought a letter to the Xiang family on the orders of the lord of the house!" Just when Xiang Chen was talking to Xiang Nantian and Xiang Hero, there was a sudden sound of news outside, and it turned out that the lord of the house had sent someone.
"Please!" said to Nantian, and hurried out with Xiang Hero.
There were only two people left in the room, Xiang Chen and Jiang Yingxue, and there was also a Yan Loach who was playing with Jiang Yingxue.
"Brother Xiangchen, now that the mansion master has sent someone, it won't be to investigate the guilt of our two families!" Jiang Yingxue blinked her big eyes and said a little nervously.
"I don't know about this, but it's unlikely, even if the power of the mansion lord is great, but the influence of the family alliance is not small, and the mansion master will not easily offend the family alliance. Besides, this time it is clear that Wu Xiong is at fault first, and it was he who dealt with the two of us first, so we naturally can't sit still. Xiang Chen's face was calm, but he was also puzzled in his heart.
According to common sense, it is absolutely impossible for the lord of the mansion to stand up for Wu Xiong in such a situation, because doing so is likely to affect the tension between the official family and the family alliance.
However, why the lord of the mansion would send someone to deliver the letter at this time, Xiang Chen couldn't guess. However, Xiang Chen has a good habit, that is, if he can't guess anything, he will put it down for the time being and wait for the results to surface.
……
Time passed minute by minute, and about two hours later, Xiang Hero and Xiang Nantian came to Xiang Chen's room again. But this time, both of them had a thick look of incomprehension on their faces.
"Dad, grandpa, what news did this mansion master bring, how could your expression be like this, could it be that he wants to make a move on our Xiang family?" Seeing Xiang Nantian and Xiang Yingying's expressions, Xiang Chen's heart suddenly became nervous.
"No, this time the lord of the mansion sent someone to deliver the letter, not to blame Wu Xiong's affairs, on the contrary, the attitude of the lord of the mansion in the letter turned out to be very humble, he said that Wu Xiong did a very excessive job this time, it was his negligence, he apologized to us to the family, and hoped that the head of the family could temporarily take the position of the city lord!"
"There is such a thing?" Listening to Xiang Yingying's words, Xiang Chen also felt a little incredible.
The official family and the family alliance influence each other, but it does not mean that the relationship between the two sides is good. It can even be said that the relationship between the two sides is very bad, so the attitude of this mansion master today also attracted the confusion of Xiang family.
"I studied this truth with your grandfather for a long time, and in the end I didn't have a definite answer, so I could only agree to it temporarily. In addition, the lord of the mansion also brought a message, saying that the trial of the Tongtian Road is about to start recently, and all the best disciples of the family will enter the Tongtian Road to meet the test, and our Xiang family is naturally among them, and the lord of the mansion will let you prepare well, and when the time comes, you will go to the Tongtian Road to practice!"
"The Mansion Master really thinks of me, but why do I think this matter doesn't seem to be so simple?" With his keen intuition, Xiang Chen always felt that there was something wrong with this.
"The trial of the road to heaven will be held every once in a while, it is a test for selecting talents, as long as you perform well, you can get the opportunity to be cultivated, and even enter the thirty-six blessed land, become a disciple in the thirty-six blessed land! This should be a good thing!" Xiang Nantian was also puzzled, the Xiang family had clearly just killed a city lord, that was the mansion lord's right-hand man, why was the mansion lord not only not angry, but also gave the Xiang family such a big opportunity.
"If you can't figure it out, don't think about it for the time being, anyway, even if the mansion master doesn't remind me, I want to go to Tongtian Road to experience it at that time, it's better now!" Xiang Chen explained.
"I can only think like this, you and Yingxue should prepare well, the messenger who sent the letter said that he would go to Xiang's house first, and then he would go to Jiang's house, Yingxue, you are also the most outstanding child of the younger generation of the Jiang family, I think you must be among the people reminded by the mansion master!" Xiang Nantian glanced at Jiang Yingxue and instructed.
"I'm not interested in that one that leads to the sky, but since Brother Xiangchen is going to participate, then I'll go too!" Jiang Yingxue's little face was very calm, everything she did was only related to Xiang Chen, as for those things that had nothing to do with Xiang Chen, she was not interested.
"Okay, then you can prepare together, the road to heaven is not smooth, you two must cooperate well, so that the hope of winning is greater. "To the south of the heavens.
"Grandpa, don't worry, when my injury is better, I'll take Yingxue to train, and I will definitely turn her into a heroine!" Xiang Chen patted his chest.
"Whoever wants to be a heroine in the middle of the women, I just need to cook the dishes, and you will do the rest!" Jiang Yingxue smiled mischievously.
"Cooking and cooking, you are really ambitious!" Xiang Chen shook his head helplessly, saying that Jiang Yingxue was the number one person in the Jiang family, but after arriving at Xiang's house, Xiang Chen found that Jiang Yingxue was completely a little bird.
"Don't look down on cooking and cooking, the food I cook is very good, it can make you eat to your heart's content, and only when you are full can you have the energy to fight, so I am the biggest hero!" Jiang Yingxue smiled mischievously.
"Ah......" Xiang Chen opened his mouth, but he didn't know how to continue. It is said that reasoning with a woman is self-defeating, and now Xiang Chen finally believes that this sentence is true.
……
Xiang Chen's injuries this time were lighter than the attack on the Shen family, but it took him a day to move around freely.
It's not that Wu Xiong's cultivation is not as good as Shen Chunheng, it's just that the current Xiang Chen has cultivated the new Yan Spirit Determination, and the recovery ability of his body is several times that of the previous one, so it seems that Xiang Chen's time in bed is much shorter, but in fact, the injury he suffered this time is much more serious than the one in the Shen family.
can get out of bed and walk around, Xiang Chen didn't take a moment to relax, and always pulled Jiang Yingxue for training. Jiang Yingxue's strength has been significantly improved these days, although she has complained about Xiang Chen's strict requirements, she can still see the excitement on Xiao Nizi's face.
Of course, Xiang Chen is also enjoying it, Jiang Yingxue is very smart, and sometimes she can even draw inferences, and Xiang Chen has also benefited a lot from being with her.
In addition to training Jiang Yingxue, Xiang Chen's time was spent refining the Flame Halberd and the Flame Order. Xiang Chen already knew the power of the Flame Halberd, and even the treasure of the Zhen Clan, which symbolized the inheritance of the ancient clan, could be harmed, so Xiang Chen's first choice was to completely refine the Flame Halberd and make it his most handy weapon.
As for the Flame Order, Xiang Chen is more interested in the secrets contained in it. Xiang Chen had been studying the Flame Order for a while, and he had discovered that there was an important information in the Flame Order, which he could not read yet, but he could guess that the content of this important information might be related to the Overlord's sleep.
Otherwise, the Mansion Master called Ghost would not have been so eager to get this Flame Order.
Happy times always pass quickly, and a month has passed in a blink of an eye, and this month, both Xiang Chen and Jiang Yingxue have undergone earth-shaking changes. Xiang Chen is more stable than before, and Jiang Yingxue is also a little more sharp.
Of course, what I saw the most in the eyes of others was that Xiang Chen seemed to have become more cheerful, and his smile was more than before. Especially Xiang Yingying, he pays attention to Xiang Chen every day, this feeling is the most real, and his heart is naturally blooming.
Xiang Chen's performance seems to be stepping out of the shadow of emotional failure, and the biggest contributor to all this is Jiang Yingxue. Although today's Xiang Chen can't fully accept Jiang Yingxue, he no longer rejects it. The road ahead of the two teenagers seems to have become clearer.
On this day, Xiang Chen and Jiang Yingxue had just finished their routine training and were about to go back, but they saw Xiang Nantian and Xiang Yingying walking towards them.
"Dad, grandpa!" Xiang Chen greeted him respectfully.
"Uncle Xiang, Grandpa Xiang!" Jiang Yingxue also followed Xiang Chen to greet her, if it weren't for the different names of the two people, many people would mistake the two people for the newlywed Yan'er's little couple.
"You all seem to have changed a lot during this time, and we are very happy to see it, but I think it's time for your training to come to an end, just now the mansion master sent someone to summon it, saying that this road to heaven will be officially opened on the fifteenth day of this month, today is already the fifth day of the first month, and there are less than ten days to go, I think you should go to the Ling Tianfu lord to report first!" Xiang Nantian looked at the two young men and said.
"Is it so fast, I really don't think I'm ready yet!" Jiang Yingxue seemed to be a little reluctant, she and Xiang Chen were very happy during this time.
"Hehe, silly girl, what's so good about this kind of preparation, you can take this road to heaven as a preparation, we can go there to meet a new test. Xiang Chen smiled slightly.
Xiang Nantian and Xiang Yingying didn't speak, but both of them had smiles on their faces.
Xiang Chen and Jiang Yingxue didn't delay much, and on the third day after receiving the message from the mansion master again, the two of them got up and rushed to Ling Tianfu.
Ling Tianfu is one of the five provinces of the Beizhou Continent, the Beizhou Continent is also known as the Northern Frontier, and the Ling Tianfu is the middle province ranked under the Northern Xinjiang Lord. The mansion master's name is Ling Wei, and he is a very powerful figure, it is said that when he was young, he once went into the Valley of Hundred Beasts alone and killed many demon beasts that plagued humans. It was precisely because of that time that Ling Wei was appointed as the head of the mansion by the Xinjiang director of Northern Xinjiang.
Xiang Chen and Jiang Yingxue each rode a tall horse and walked on the smooth continent. For Ling Tianfu, they had only heard of it, the Xiang family and the Jiang family in Qinglan City were considered big families, but within Ling Tianfu, they were nothing at all. Therefore, it was not surprising that neither of them had ever been to Ling Tianfu.
"Brother Xiangchen, this Ling Tianfu is really lively, it's the first time I've seen such a prosperous place?" Having entered the range of Ling Tianfu, Jiang Yingxue's eyes kept looking left and right, as if she had suddenly come to a new world, and it was all fresh.
"This should be Ling Tianfu, the two of us will go to the mansion master to report first, and then come out to have fun!" Xiang Chen had never seen such a non-slip scene, and his heart was suddenly occupied by curiosity.
