Chapter Twenty-Seven: Fighting the Fire

Zhuang Hao and others have been to Annan more than once, and naturally they know many roads, since there are people chasing after them now, the official road is impossible to walk, so they have to take a detour.

After several days of hiding in Tibet, I was relieved to find that I had not been caught up.

During this period, He Ping also learned why they were hunted down by these people.

It turned out that Miss Yan's real name was Yan Xiqin, and the Yan family was the same as He Ping guessed, it was the Yan family of Yan Gang, the prime minister of the court, and Yan Xiqin was his granddaughter.

However, Yan Xiqin is not the daughter of a big house, and she is introverted, although she has cultivation qualifications, she has not reached Sancheng.

Even families like the Yan family categorically can't do it for everyone to give Tongmai Dan to assist in cultivation, except for the Zhao family, a family like the one who can obtain Tongmai Fruit by themselves, most of the rest of the families will only select a small number of clansmen to give Tongmai Dan assistance.

Although the Tongmai Fruit is not unique to Yishui, but in general, the output of the Tongmai Fruit is still scarce, and the families who can pick the Tongmai Fruit, after they use it up, most of the excess is sold to the sect or some extremely powerful monks, and few of them fall into the hands of the rest of the families.

What's more, the aura in the family is extremely rich, even if there is no three-grade cultivation qualification, in the twenty years that he has been waiting for the Tongmai fruit to ripen, he can rely on himself to break through the qi refining.

If Yan Xiqin can cultivate on her own normally, she will naturally be able to break through Qi refining at this moment, but when she was born, her mother died of dystocia, and the cold qi entered her body, causing her to be congenitally deficient in essence and sickly, which is a physique that is difficult to cultivate.

Yan Gang didn't look for a cultivator to help her see it, and after the overhaul came, he carefully examined it, and said that she was a heavenly body, and this kind of physique cultivation was extremely slow, almost no different from mortals, and she could indeed practice.

Even if this kind of physique can break through the Qi refining with the help of the Tongmai Fruit, it will be difficult to make an inch of progress in the early stage of Qi refining, unless it can obtain an elixir, called Blood Lingzhi.

However, the blood reishi is extremely rare and difficult to find, and even if there is, it is hidden in the hands of some major repairs, and there is not enough price to obtain from these major repairs, after all, the blood reishi is not only the effect of filling the innate essence, but also the best medicine for the monk when he is injured.

The Yan family didn't find the blood lingzhi, so they gave Yan Xiqin some tonics, but it didn't work, and there was no follow-up.

As for them being hunted down, it has to start with an elder surnamed Lu.

If the family is to continue for a long time, it will not be possible to do without the support of practitioners behind it, and the number of practitioners needed is not quantity, but quality.

The reason why the Yan family can be so prosperous is precisely because their Yan family had a major overhaul in the later stage of foundation building a few years ago, coupled with the overhaul that was already enshrined, and the power is so thriving.

But just a year ago, the Yan family went to a ruins to explore treasures before the overhaul of the foundation building, and it didn't matter if he went, there was no news from him in the future, and everyone speculated that he had fallen in the ruins.

But he was afraid that if he didn't die, he didn't dare to act rashly, until a few days ago, when he returned from the overhaul that went with him, it showed that he had died in the ruins, and the major families of Shuntianfu couldn't hold it back.

The Yan family has expanded its power over the years, offending many families, and the Lu family is also among them, without the protection of the monks in the later stage of foundation building, the power of the Yan family does not match their strength, so they naturally have to spit out something from their mouths.

In the process of spitting out things, killing is always inevitable, and several major families have joined forces, and the momentum is violent, I am afraid that it is not only to hurt the Yan family, but to want the life of the Yan family.

At this moment of crisis, Yan Gang immediately decided to send the juniors out first, keeping the Yan family's fire, and some of the juniors with outstanding qualifications were escorted out by cultivators, and like Yan Xiqin, he only arranged for Yan Xian to be escorted by people who are good at martial arts, not that the Yan family is unwilling to use all cultivators, but that there is indeed a shortage of manpower.

The Lu family had a big enmity with the Yan family back then, and volunteered to take over the hunt, and the Lu Gang and others were chasing and killing the Yan family who fled south.

Yan Xiqin's trip was also to join her uncle in Annan.

Knowing about Yan Xiqin, He Ping could only sigh, he didn't expect that the Yan family would attract everyone to push the wall just because of the fall of a cultivator.

If the Yan family has no accident this time, they are afraid that they will end up with a broken family, and Yan Xiqin also understands.

He Ping rides with her every day, and naturally she can feel her low, and she is also a poor person.

He Ping didn't want to share a horse with Yan Xiqin, he knew since he was a child that men and women can't kiss, but Yan Xiqin really can't ride a horse alone, her physical strength is extremely poor, He Ping had to take her, just try not to touch her.

Ever since Yan Xi knew that He Ping was a cultivator, he wanted to match He Ping and Yan Xiqin intentionally or unintentionally.

He talked there all day long, "Miss is still not married", "Miss has never ridden with other men", "I don't know if He Gongzi is married" and so on.

Yan Xi is planning to marry Yan Xiqin to He Ping, he has watched Yan Xiqin grow up since he was a child, and naturally knows her pity, if she can marry a cultivator, it is naturally a hundred times better than marrying a mortal, not to mention that now that the Yan family is afraid that it no longer exists, it is a great thing to be able to win over such a young cultivator.

And He Ping is handsome, scholarly, and he is only sixteen years old, which is a good match for young lady.

At this time, Yan Xiqin was so ashamed that she couldn't speak, refused to raise her head, and only grabbed the horse tightly with both hands.

He Ping naturally knew what Yan Xi meant, and only said that he would escort Yan Xiqin to Annan well, and did not give a clear answer to his potential meaning.

He didn't want to, Yan Xiqin is such a beauty, and everyone has a love for beauty, but He usually thinks of another woman, she can't speak, but her weakness has already touched He Ping's.

He Ping didn't know how to deal with the relationship with Yan Xiqin, not to mention that Yan Xiqin might not have intentionally relied on a stranger he had just met.

But if she had the opportunity to see Zhao Xianglian again, she might have forgotten He Ping, a person she hadn't met a few times, maybe she already had someone she liked, and even if she was married.

These are all unknown, He Ping's heart is in turmoil, and he doesn't know how to deal with these things, so he has to drag it for the time being.

In addition to this stack of things, He Ping has spent the rest of his time studying this "Night Pearl" in addition to compressing the aura, learning tiger boxing, and practicing the wood spirit ball technique in the past few days.

Since absorbing the fire spirit ball, the night pearl is no longer transparent, but the whole body is bright red, He Ping tried to inject the aura, but there was no response, and tried to raise a fire, the night pearl was still in the fire, in the blink of an eye, the fire of the fire was completely absorbed by the night pearl.

After just a few more attempts, the Night Pearl no longer absorbs the fire in the fire, and only stays in the fire.

He Ping guessed that this night pearl might be a magic weapon that could only be used by fire monks, and its function was to be able to absorb fire, and fire monks might be able to release the absorbed flames when they used it.

Since this thing has an upper limit on absorption, it should not be relied upon to resist the attacks of the Fire Cultivators.

But that's just it, this can be regarded as a good treasure, but it can't be called the night pearl, so He Ping named it a fire bead.
