Linyuan City, by the mountains and the sea, is a big city in Donglai Kingdom.

In this golden age, the strength of the mystic determines everything. With strength, status, wealth, beauty...... And so they came. The city lord of this city is surnamed Li, who has the strength of the Xuanjun level, and was named a marquis here by the lord of Donglai.

Under the city lord Linyuan Jun, there are three deep-rooted and long-standing families in Linyuan City, namely the Xu family, the imperial style and the Ge family, and the heads of the three families are all strong people at the peak of Xuanzong.

Xu Yang slowly retracted his thoughts and looked at the towering city gate in front of him.

The guards at the city gate checked their identities, and after Xu Yang showed the ascetic certificate, they gave up the idea of extorting and asking for benefits, and waved their hands impatiently to let Xu Yang in.

"It's really unlucky, it's a poor ascetic, and he can't even pull a hair off. The gate soldier muttered. In the minds of the city gate officials, the ascetics were the poorest. Born in a retail household, spending three months in the wilderness, it is impossible to carry any coins at all, and even if you find some herbs, you will take them on the spot.

Xu Yang was not in the mood to care about this, he followed the path in his memory and walked briskly towards the southwest of Linyuan City. That's where he lives.

The Xu family, the Yu family, and the Ge family, the three major families have been inherited in Linyuan City for hundreds of years, and they can be described as deep-rooted. Among them, the Xu clan occupies the south of the city, the Yu clan and the Ge clan are in the east and west of the city respectively, and the three families dare not involve in the north of the city where Lin Yuanjun is located, and there have been many open and secret battles in other areas.

Of course, where there is competition, there is cooperation, and whenever one of them has a talent and is powerful, the other two will secretly join forces to fight against the powerful one. This three-legged situation is very stable, and for hundreds of years, the three major families of Linyuan City have been standing together.

For example, fifteen years ago, there was a genius Xu Qingyuan in the Xu family, who practiced to the peak of Xuanshi in his twenties, and had no opponents under Xuanzong. In the case of the three old patriarchs checking and balancing each other, the Xu family had one more Xu Qingyuan, which naturally took advantage of it, so that the Yu clan and the Ge clan could hardly raise their heads.

Later, the Yu clan and the Ge clan secretly joined forces to boycott the Xu family in various markets and dojos, which brought the situation back. The Xu family didn't dare to be too persecutive, lest the Yu clan and the Ge clan really join forces, and it would be possible to destroy the Xu family at that time.

After all, Xu Qingyuan is only the peak of Xuanzong, not Xuanzong! The old patriarchs of the Yu clan and the Ge clan are all at the peak of Xuanzong, and once they join forces, the Xu family will not be able to compete at all with Xu Changling, the head of the family.

Later, something happened in the Xu family, and Xu Qingyuan angered a big shili for some reason. That big shili is a hundred times stronger than the three major families of Linyuan, and any elder who comes out is a Xuanzong-level cultivator! This shili did not exterminate the Xu clan, but just sent someone to warn.

After this incident, Xu Qingyuan was nowhere to be found.

The big shili made it clear that he was dissatisfied with the Xu family, and many families and shili who had dealings with the Xu family suspended their cooperation with the Xu family one after another, causing the status of the Xu family to plummet.

The reason why Xu Yang has these memories is because he and his sister Xu Yu are Xu Qingyuan's children.

The reason why Xu Yang and his sister were excluded from the Xu family was because many children of the Xu family believed that it was Xu Qingyuan who caused the Xu family to lose a lot of shili, and now they are faintly inferior to either the Yu family or the Ge family.

"Whew...... A group of children of a family who don't want to become stronger and always want to rely on the family's shili actually planted the reason for the family's decline on my cheap father......" Xu Yang sighed and stopped thinking about those Xu family children.

"After returning home, I will properly settle my sister, and it can be regarded as cutting off a trace of the fetters of this body," Xu Yang thought silently, "In the future, I will have nothing to worry about, and I will be able to impact the higher realm and climb to the peak of the Xuanzhi." ”

The route in memory took Xu Yang to a dilapidated blue-tiled mansion. The gatehouse of this house is tall, and the intricate pictures on the shadow wall wall in the door seem to tell its former prosperity.

But the house was ruined after all, and the left side of the wall was collapsing one after another, and a tuft of dogtail grass was growing luxuriantly on the wall and on the blue-tiled roof. The patterns on the shadow wall are mottled and washed by rain for many years, and they have long lost their former brightness, but are blurred.

Here is a dilapidated courtyard of the Xu family, and across the street, is the prosperous Xu family's main house, the door is tall, the decoration is luxurious, forming a sharp contrast.

Xu Yang gently pushed open the door and found that the wooden door with corroded copper nails was hidden.

"The little girl was only ten years old, and she really didn't know how to take care of herself, and she was alone at home, and she didn't know how to bolt the door. Xu Yang said in his heart. He couldn't tell how he felt about Xu Yang's sister, Xu Yu, maybe because of the influence of memory fusion, he always cared about this little girl he had never met, but he didn't realize it.

Bypassing the shadow wall, behind which was an overgrown yard, Xu Yang's eyesight was very good, and he suddenly found a small figure squatting behind the weeds and trying to weed.

"Sister...... Xu Yu, I'm back. Xu Yang opened his mouth and said.

The little figure stood up suddenly, and a small shovel fell to the ground with a "bang", and a surprised voice shouted.

"Brother—"

Before the voice fell, the small figure had already fallen.

Xu Yang was startled, the galloping horse involuntarily used, brought a gust of wind, came to the side of the little girl, saw that she was pale and her breath was weak, and hurriedly squatted down and used his fingers to probe her snort.

"Brother, I'm fine," Xu Yu didn't faint, she still had her eyes open, her big eyes staring at Xu Yang tightly, with a deep joy, "You're finally back...... Xiaoyu has been having nightmares these days, dreaming that her brother is in danger...... I thought you would never come back......"

Xu Yu's dirty little hand gripped Xu Yang's arm tightly, as if as soon as he let go, Xu Yang would disappear.

Feeling Xu Yu's strong attachment, Xu Yang's heart warmed. He checked Xu Yu's situation up close, and he was sure in his heart.

After squatting for a long time, I suddenly get together, and my head is easy to suffer from ischemia and cause black vision. Xu Yu's physical fitness is too poor, and her condition is more serious than ordinary people. Just now, I suddenly heard the news of Xu Yang's return, and in the midst of joy, I fell down for a while, not because of any disease.

Gently helping Xu Yu up, Xu Yang said with some reproach: "Why don't you eat well? ”

Xu Yu smiled shyly, without justification, took Xu Yang's hand and said, "Brother, you just came back, you must be hungry, Xiaoyu will cook rice for you......"

Xu Yang's nose was slightly sour, he pretended to look at the sky, sniffed, and then lowered his head and smiled: "I'm not hungry......"

"That's right!" Xu Yu suddenly said happily, "Brother, you come with me." ”

Xu Yu jumped up and down, jumping back into the house like a happy deer. For the past two months, she has been frightened, but now that her brother has returned, she has put down a big stone in her heart, and her mood is much more relaxed.

Xu Yang looked at Xu Yu's back, his heart was inexplicably touched, he shook his head and quickly followed.

The room was a little dim, and in the huge house, there were only two beds, one large and one small, one low table, and two broken stools. It is not an exaggeration to describe it as "four walls of home".

Xu Yu ran to the head of the bed, carefully took out an object wrapped in a red cloth from the bedside table, and handed it to Xu Yang: "Brother, look!"

Xu Yang was a little curious, what kind of treasure could Xu Yu send like a treasure?

Slowly opening the red cloth bag, Xu Yang saw a yellow pill.

"What is this?" Xu Yang was a little stunned, in later generations, he had read a lot of books and knew about many pills in the Golden Age, but this pill stumped him.

It's not that this pill is precious, Xu Yang identified the appearance and found that this was simply a refined "Quenching Pill", which added at least three conflicting medicinal materials, and the fire was so bad that it was a mess, and it was simply unreasonable not to scrap it.

Xu Yu didn't seem to see Xu Yang's expression, and said happily: "Brother, this is the 'Fire Wheel Elixir', you can take it now, you can remove impurities from your body, and the success rate of condensing the Fire Xuan Turbo will increase by three percent in the future!"

Xu Yang smiled bitterly and did not speak. Where is this Fire Wheel Elixir, it is clearly a waste pill and a poison pill! If you eat this pill, you will at least get a serious illness.

"How did you get this pill?" asked Xu Yang, who felt that Xu Yu had been deceived.

"It's the shopkeeper of the Jimin Pharmacy, speaking of which, the shopkeeper is really a good person, this fire wheel elixir, in the Qianbao Pavilion in the north city, will sell for at least 100 Xun Leopard coins. But the shopkeeper sold it to me, only 50 Xun Leopard Coins, and it was allowed to owe ...... on credit" Xu Yu said more and more excitedly, and her pale little face showed a sickly flush.

Xu Yang shook his head and said with some reproach: "50 Xun Leopard Coins, it's not a small amount, you are so young, how did you think of buying such an expensive thing?"

"There's still a month to go, and it's going to be a big family competition," Xu Yu looked at her brother timidly, "Hasn't my brother always regarded the family big competition as very important?"

Xu Yang came back to his senses, and in the mutilated memory of the dead Xu Yang, there was indeed a strong obsession with the family competition.

For the children of the family, the family is their root, and relying on the family, they can not be bullied by others and have good conditions for cultivation.

Outside things aside, this in itself is a sense of belonging in the bloodline.

For Xu Yang in the past, one of the major motivations for his efforts was to be recognized by the family again, return to the family, and no longer be excluded.

Xu Yu said softly: "Xiaoyu can't help my brother anything, so I can only try to create conditions for my brother...... Therefore, Xiaoyu used the ancestral house as a guarantee and bought this 'Fire Wheel Elixir'...... As long as my brother can be promoted to Xuanshi, even if there is no house to live in, Xiaoyu will be happy......"

A warm current rose in Xu Yang's heart, he didn't blame his sister anymore, and sighed low in his heart.

Originally, Xu Yang thought about giving up this family relationship and settling Xu Yu in a good life, and after he was a man with a wide sea and a fish, the sky was high and the birds could fly! But now, Xu Yu's attachment to him touched his heart and loosened his original thoughts a lot.

"Brother, what's wrong with you?" Seeing that Xu Yang was silent, Xu Yu asked a little uneasily.

When Xu Yang heard this, he smiled slightly: "It's nothing, Xiaoyu...... Let's go back to the house, and I'll cook you some porridge. ”

Xu Yu was a little strange, and when her brother came back from the Giant Python Mountain Range, he felt a little weird. However, she still squinted obediently and smiled, "haode...... Brother, let's cook porridge with Xiaoyu, you still have to practice, you can't delay. ”

In the past, Xu Yang worked very hard, and he continued to cultivate penance whenever he had time, and he didn't think of any way to make money at all, making this ancestral house more and more dilapidated, and everything of value was basically pawned out.

"Cultivate Xuan, cultivate Xuan, cultivate the four walls of the family, and you can only drink the northwest wind. Nutrition can't keep up, how to temper the flesh and grow liliang?" Xu Yang sighed a little, the previous Xu Yang was simply putting the cart before the horse, no wonder the cultivation in the early stage of the Xuantu, the flesh liliang was only two or three jun, not even as good as an ordinary healthy man.

It's time to think about ways to make money, the so-called poor and rich martial arts, the children of big families, eat the flesh and blood of fierce beasts and even foreign beasts at every meal, and there is a lot of energy contained in it, so that they can temper their bodies and lay the foundation for the path of the mysterious.

Xu Yang is still very confident in making money, he comes from later generations, not to mention the magic magic in his mind, and there are a lot of knowledge of alchemy, refining, and talismans, which is 10,000 years ahead of this era. If you can't make any money, Xu Yang simply doesn't have to live.

Just as the two siblings were returning to the house, a half-yin voice suddenly came from the shadow wall:

"Xu Gongzi is back, our debts should be settled, right?"
