A certain mansion.

Although the courtyard is not very luxurious, it can be seen elegant bit by bit, whether it is the finely carved rockery stone and jade in the courtyard, or the clear stream through the courtyard, it can be seen that it is a large family.

This is the residence of the Feng family, one of the six major families in the Yuzhou Prefecture, and the Feng family has been prosperous for more than 100 years, especially after the grandmaster Feng Hongsheng was born in the family, his status has risen steadily, and he has become one of the most powerful families in the state capital.

"Chen Mu has arrived?"

Feng Hongan, the head of the Feng family, was standing in the courtyard with a shiny purple spirit bamboo cane, he was the elder brother of Feng Hongsheng, the elder of the Seven Xuanzong Sect, who was only one year older than Feng Hongsheng, but his appearance was obviously much older than Feng Hongsheng, after all, he was not a grandmaster, and the Feng family only had Feng Hongsheng.

The person standing next to him to report respectfully responded to Feng Hongan.

After Feng Hongan nodded slightly, he took two steps with a bamboo cane and said, "Prepare a generous gift to give, remember to be thoughtful for a few weeks." ”

"Yes."

The attendant answered, and then withdrew.

Feng Hongan paced a few steps with a bamboo cane, looked up at the sky, and sighed slightly.

Chen Mu, a peerless genius in Hanbei Dao, after nearly a hundred years, another person who realized the artistic conception of Qiankun in the Five Organs Realm, but unfortunately suffered from the conspiracy of Xuanji Pavilion, otherwise he would like to marry his granddaughter to Chen Mu to win one or two by marriage.

The main reason is that Chen Mu already has a family, otherwise a young master of the Billboard List, even if the future grandmaster road is slim, he is completely qualified to marry the granddaughter of the Feng family as a wife, but being a concubine will seem that the Feng family is too up-and-coming, and it is also a little decent, after all, the Feng family is a big family in the state capital, and there is Feng Hongsheng as a grandmaster in the clan.

But all in all, Chen Mu brought some family members to the state capital to settle down, that is, it is better to make friends than to make enemies.

……

Another mansion.

This is the Qin family, one of the six major families.

As soon as the surname Qin came out, it was also immediately associated with an existence, that was Chen Mu's master, Qin Mengjun, the master of Lingxuan Peak, Qin Mengjun was indeed from the Qin family, but he rose from the side branches, not the main sect of the Qin family.

Of course, since Qin Mengjun became a grandmaster, the vein she is in has also risen and become a pivotal part of the Qin family, and she can completely compete with the main sect of the Qin family.

"Chen Mu is here?"

"Go prepare a gift and say hello."

After the head of the Qin family learned the news, he also quickly ordered to go down.

As one of Qin Mengjun's true disciples, Chen Mu would be fine if he was just an ordinary deacon protector, but as a master on the Fengyun List, and even a person who could kill Situ Shu, he naturally needed to pay more attention, and it was natural to take the initiative to greet him.

……

Just half a day's work.

The six major families in the state capital, as well as the 'Meng family', the 'Yan family' and many other families on the next level, all reacted to Chen Mu's entry into the state capital, but the reactions of each family were not the same, the attitude of the Feng family and the Qin family among the six major families was obviously much more eager, in addition to the 'Liu family', which was at the end of the six major families, also took the initiative to show friendship with each other.

As for the reaction of the other three, it was relatively flat, and they only sent people to say hello symbolically.

The attitude of the family on the next level is much more eager, needless to say the Meng family, Meng Danyun and Meng Tianzhang's family, and then the Yan family doesn't need to mention much, just look at the surname to know that it is Yan Jingqing's family of birth and raising, these small families living under the six major families, they are unabashed about Chen Mu's overtures, and even on the first day, some people tested whether Chen Mu had the idea of marrying a concubine, and the daughter of the right age in the clan was down to fourteen years old and up to more than twenty years old.

Compared with the six decent and fascient families, the status of these small families in the state capital either relies on marriage ties, or there are people like Yan Jingqing in the family who can maintain their power.

Chen Mu, as a master of the wind and cloud list who is more than Yan Jingqing, is naturally the target of these small families unconditionally, especially when Chen Mu only married a small family daughter from a remote county town, and has no close relationship with the various families in the state capital, it is undoubtedly more worth trying his best to win over.

Not to mention that Chen Mu is not very old, he is only thirty years old this year.

But.

Chen Mu ignored such temptations.

He had already experienced a struggle between family forces in Yu County, and now he naturally had no interest in getting involved in another family power conflict, which would only waste his time and affect the speed at which he drew his sword.

Bringing Xu Hongyu, Chen Yue and others to the state capital is just to give them a more stable environment, and it is also to allow them to travel with more peace of mind, and they don't need to worry too much about their recent situation, and they can go home every time they go back to Qixuanzong.

"The Qin family, the Feng family, and the Liu family...... The gifts from these three families are really not light. ”

In the brand-new mansion, Chen Mu counted the gift lists from various families in the state capital who came to visit them, among which the Qin, Feng and Liu families were the most, and the value of each family's gifts was no less than a 'Tuyuan Pearl' like a dirty spiritual object.

In the end, it is a big family in the state capital, there are grandmasters behind it, and the shots are all extraordinary, far from being comparable to Xue Xie and other families in the remote Yu County, at least the family of Yu County can easily take something of this grade as a gift for the first visit.

"Do you want to go back?"

Xu Hongyu stood next to Chen Mu and asked in a low voice.

There is still a difference between generous gifts and thin gifts, thin gifts are just a gesture on the face, and generous gifts involve human feelings.

"No, just take it all."

Chen Mu shook his head slightly.

He took it when someone gave him a gift, and now what he lacks is resources, and when he left, he also went to the Yu family's treasury, from which he took away some things that the Yu family could not easily use, but were more valuable.

These are combined, and after that, they will all go to the Seven Xuanzong and exchange them for the warm and nourishing spiritual things he needs.

In fact, it makes no difference whether the 'Qin family's gifts are received or not, his master Qin Mengjun is the Qin family, and he has a certain connection with the Qin family itself, if the Qin family asks him for something, he will have to think about the other party.

As for the Feng family's share, it is nothing to accept, although it seems that he has nothing to do with the Feng family, and even before Feng Hongsheng came forward to block Fu Jingyuan, the elder of the Xuanji Pavilion, but after clearing the Xuanji Pavilion rudder, he and Yan Jingqing gave Feng Hongsheng a part of the Xuanji Pavilion resources, and Feng Hongsheng will not stick to this kind of subsection, and it would be disproportionate for the grandmaster to accept it in person, so this resource was directly handed over to the Feng family.

Finally, the Liu family ......

This family is a bit interesting, the situation is a bit similar to the original Yu family, behind it is the elder of the Seven Xuanzong Sect, Liu Zongsheng, but this elder is already too old, it seems that he is more than one hundred and seventy years old, even if it is a marrow washing master, he is also approaching his twilight years.

In this case, it is very normal to show favor to him, even if he is not a Sect Master of Cleansing the Marrow, but only ranks on the list by virtue of his strength, for the current Liu family, if he can win over, it will also be a huge help from the family.

After all, he was too young, only thirty years old.

Therefore, the gift prepared by the Liu family for the visit was the most generous, and the value was comparable to three parts of refining dirty spiritual objects, Chen Mu accepted all of them, and at the same time politely rejected the Liu family's temptation to marry him.

After all, he is not too little now, he can send as much as he wants, and he is not worried about being coerced by favors, after all, with his natural qualifications, it won't take long for his cultivation to reach a higher level, win the Grandmaster and even go to the realm of martial arts.

At that time, even if something is asked of him, it will only be solved with a single word.

As for getting married, it is another thing to be tied by blood, although he has a good double cultivation method in his hand, but it is not so much that it will become the kind of painting style of the Hehuan Sect, and he will be merciful everywhere Night Sheng, this exercise is better than nothing for him in the final analysis, and it can make him not delay his practice while satisfying the fun.

"In the end, it is a big family in the state capital, and it is much richer than our Yu County."

Xiaohe was also counting the gift list next to him, and he couldn't help but sigh at this time.

Most of Yucheng's annual materials, including taxes, various medicinal materials found, heaven and earth spiritual objects, and many official businesses, basically have to be transported to the state capital to a large extent, and then remitted to the Seven Xuanzong for digestion.

In comparison, these large and small families in the state capital have a large degree of 'self-reliance', and many of their businesses and various discovered resources are controlled by themselves, and they do not need to be handed over to the Seven Xuanzong, because they themselves represent a part of the Seven Xuanzong, and there are peak lords and elders behind them, and they are the vested interests at the top of Yuzhou.

Plainly.

The respective forces of the six major families are no worse than the seven peaks under the Seven Xuanzong Sect, and there are also many Six Organs Realm existences, many masters of the Five Organs Realm, they can actually be regarded as the 'Outer Six Peaks' of the Seven Xuanzong.

If Chen Mu was not only thirty years old, the attitude of these six families towards him would be a little colder, if he didn't defeat Situ Shu, but he was only at the bottom of the list, his attitude would be a little lighter, if he couldn't go up to the list, it was just an ordinary six intestine realm, then the six major families might not have too much to ask about his arrival, only the Qin family, the Meng family and other old families would greet him.

A moment later.

Chen Mu sorted out all the visiting gifts of each family, plus some of the resources he took when he disposed of the Xuanji Pavilion rudder, as well as the ones he took from the Yu family, and put them together to calculate, and he could probably exchange five to six warm spiritual objects in the Seven Xuanzong Sect.

"Five or six, that's not a lot."

Chen Mu bowed slightly in his heart.

In fact, this is already a lot, after all, the warm spirit object is rarer and more precious than the refining of dirty spirit objects, don't look at the value of the cold spirit knife and the evil breaking thunder spear in his hand are far more than several warm cultivation spirit objects, but the acquisition of these two is not so easy, the evil breaking thunder spear is a coincidence, and the cold spirit spirit knife was taken from the hands of a master of the wind and cloud list.

He summoned the system interface and glanced at it.

【Martial Arts: Qiankun Artistic Conception (Step 2)】

[Experience: 6827 points]

……

【Six Intestine Meridians (44%)】

[Experience: 0 points]

Escorting Xu Hongyu and his party from Yujun to the state capital, it took almost a month and a half of hard work, and he was always perceiving the heavens, earth, mountains and rivers along the way, and finally gained more than 3,000 experience points, which is also very rich, and he will be able to continue to deduce the artistic conception soon.

The refining of the six internal organs has only increased by one percent in a month and a half after consuming the 'Yellow Ultenia', from 43% to 44%, which can be said to be better than nothing, fortunately, Xu Hongyu and Xiaohe's improvement is not small, Xu Hongyu should be able to enter the five visceral realm soon, Xiaohe forging bones can probably be practiced steadily, and Chen Yue should be about the same.

"If you change it to five or six warm spiritual objects, I don't know how much you can improve."

Chen Mu looked at the system panel and muttered to himself.

If each one is like Huang Wuteng, which can increase the progress by ten percent, then it can almost be practiced directly, but if you think that the refining of the Six Organs Realm is the same as the Five Organs Realm, the closer you get to the limit, the more difficult it is, and you can't budget in advance.

But even if it is only increased to more than 70%, it is also a big improvement for him, after all, the martial artists of the ordinary Six Organs Realm are afraid that they have been tempered to seventy or eighty percent, which is the so-called 'consummation' in their mouths.

Chen Mu practiced to that extent, Yuan Gang's strength was greatly improved, and when he encountered a figure of Situ Shu's level, he could easily defeat him between three moves and two styles, and the domain he hit collapsed, and he didn't need to spend so much effort.

Just as Chen Mu was thinking in his heart.

Suddenly, a timid voice came from the side.

"Brother Mu, tea."

When Chen Mu turned his head to look, he saw Yu Ru approaching with a pot of tea, calling him in a low voice, but he didn't dare to look up at him, and Xu Hongyu and Xiaohe and others who were still here in the room disappeared at some point.

These guys......

Chen Mu was also a little funny for a while, rushing all the way from Yu County to the state capital, Xiaohe and Chen Yue's stealing plan, how could they hide it from his eyes, but just after arriving at the state capital, he thought of a way to arrange him.

Speaking of which, Xu Hongyu provoked this matter, but compared to her sister-like Yu Ru, it was indeed Xu Hongyu, who was cold and gorgeous at that time, who attracted him more.

"Hmm."

Chen Mu picked up the teacup and took a sip of tea, and then carefully looked at the girl in front of him.

If you talk about her appearance alone, Yu Ru is more pretty than Xiaohe, but because she was too young before, he treats Yu Ru more as a younger sister, and there is not much lust for men and women, and now the little girl has indeed grown up.

Take a closer look.

You can see a red rope around Yu Ru's neck, hanging a delicate and small jade pendant, hanging between the gaps, which is the Qingling pendant that Chen Mu once gave her.

The quality of this jade ornament is actually not high, it is only a low-grade Qingling jade, but Yu Ru has been wearing it on her body to this day.

"Xiaoru, you are the same as Yue'er, you are all close to me, Hongyu also regards you as a relative, even if you don't marry me, I will always take care of your brother, and I will not let anyone bully you, but if you want to marry me, it is difficult to have any reputation."

Chen Mu looked at Yu Ru and spoke softly.

In his current state, he is strong-willed, and it is difficult for lust and lust to affect him anymore, and he can turn a deaf ear to all kinds of temptations outside, but he has always acted recklessly, and will not pretend to be hypocritical.

Yu Ru listened to Chen Mu's words, and the first encounter with Chen Mu appeared in her heart, and then in the Yu family, in the Chen Mansion, and she didn't know where she got the courage, and said:

"I, I don't care about that."

Let's talk about it.

The little girl, who has always been weak, raised her head and looked at Chen Mu, as if she had mustered up enough courage and said: "I can have Sister Hongyu, Brother Mu, Sister Ning, and Yue'er, I have already lived a very happy life, even if Brother Mu doesn't want to marry me, there is nothing." ”

If it weren't for Chen Yue's constant back-and-forth, Xu Hongyu also knew her intentions, and Ning He also supported her, she would probably not take the initiative to be honest with Chen Mu like this, because for her, she can live together like a family, and she is very happy to be a younger sister, and even sometimes she can't even understand whether Chen Mu is the longed-for brother or the love between men and women, which has long been mixed together and cannot be clearly distinguished.

"You."

Chen Mu listened to Yu Ru's words, but smiled, put down the teacup in his hand, touched her head, and said: "Even so, no matter what, there is no such big difference, but a few of them are worried about you all day long." ”

Yu Ru's temperament is too gentle, even if she sees him marrying Xu Hongyu, she doesn't have any jealousy, she is only happy for him and Xu Hongyu, and it is this kind of temperament that makes Chen Yue, Xu Hongyu, Xiaohe and others take care of her everywhere, including Chen Mu.

Such a temperament is actually difficult to survive in troubled times, if there is no him in the world, Yu Ru will not know how the Yu family will arrange it in the end, and Xu Hongyu may not be able to protect her, but for Chen Mu now, protecting her is just a gesture, even if she does not show any talent in martial arts, no one in the Yu family dares to dominate her marriage, and it is up to her to do it herself.

Chen Mu was also willing to indulge her.
