In fact, Qiao Yuan didn't mind becoming the guest elder of a certain family, after all, in this unfamiliar Donglin Continent, there was a big force behind it, and it could also avoid a lot of unnecessary troubles.

As the saying goes, it's good to enjoy the shade with your back against a big tree, which is the truth, but in the choice, you should be cautious.

The people invited in front of me covered more than 30 immortal cultivation families large and small in Kyoto City, and it can be said that except for the people from the royal family and the royal family, almost all of the other immortal cultivation families were here.

"All the Taoist friends are warm, you shouldn't have shirked in the next, but you have no choice but to fight with the friends of the Lijiang Dao, there are still injuries in the body, and you need to carefully recuperate for a month, after a month, I will give you an answer. ”

Although there are more than thirty immortal cultivation families, there are also many famous big families, such as the Wu family, but Qiao Yuan will not make a decision so quickly, and he needs to think carefully.

What he said was reasonable, and everyone couldn't chase after him, so they sent Qiao Yuan out of the martial arts hall with a smile on their faces, and watched him disappear at the end of the street.

But no matter where Qiao Yuan and Qinglian went, someone could recognize them.

Although those people don't come up close, they have been looked at with strange eyes, not to mention that Qinglian is unacceptable to a woman, and Qiao Yuan is also difficult to accept.

In desperation, the two had no choice but to take a beast cart and come to Xicheng, where there were fewer monks, changed their appearance, and lived in a very ordinary inn.

After a month of recuperation here, Qiao Yuan's injuries were completely recovered, and his condition was at his peak, and then he and Qinglian came to Shengyuan Auction House again.

"Giggle...... Qiao Daoyou, I didn't expect you to really be able to beat Lijiang, at that time, the concubine also remanded you with a hundred spirit stones. ”

On the corridor in the backyard of Shengyuan Auction House, Hong Ying, who was dressed in a big red dress, covered her lips and giggled, while looking at Qiao Yuan and said in a charming voice.

Qiao Yuan had long heard about some merchants setting up gambling games, so many monks lost their fortunes, and secretly complained about him.

Hearing Hongying mention this matter at this moment, Qiao Yuan couldn't help but sweat on his forehead, and secretly said Eldest sister, with your net worth, don't you stake a hundred medium-grade spirit stones, isn't it clear that I want to lose to Lijiang.

It is true that Hong Ying only bet on Lijiang Dasheng at the beginning, and also bet on 10,000 medium-grade spirit stones, and in the end, she didn't know why, with a flash of inspiration, she actually made a ghost send a god to bet on Qiao Yuan's 100-grade spirit stones.

Unexpectedly, Qiao Yuan really won, because Hongying pressed him with a hundred high-grade spirit stones, not only recovered his losses, but also made a small profit.

is also because of this, the more Hong Ying looks at Qiao Yuan, the more comfortable she becomes, as for the embarrassing and ambiguous thing a month ago, she has long been thrown out of the clouds.

"Hongying Daoyou, I don't know what that senior is called?"

Qiao Yuan smiled awkwardly, changed the topic, and inquired about the elder of the Shengshi Business Alliance.

He came to Shengyuan Auction House this time to meet with that person and ask what he had to do when he entered the Forbidden Source Land.

"Qiao Daoyou, forgive me, I don't know about the concubine's body, the son only lived in Kyoto City seven years ago, and the dragon saw the head and the tail before, not to mention the concubine, even if it was Chen Lao, he didn't know the name of the son. ”

As soon as Hong Ying heard Qiao Yuan mention that person, the smile on her face was immediately put away, and she said with a solemn expression.

Qiao Yuan was skeptical about this, but he didn't ask much, after all, in his opinion, that person was indeed mysterious and unpredictable, and he couldn't see it thoroughly.

After a short time, the three of them came to an extremely ordinary courtyard in the east, looking at the small courtyard door that was only one zhang wide, Qiao Yuan's expression was slightly condensed, and he could see that there was an extremely extraordinary prohibition on it.

Hongying walked to the door, first saluted with a respectful expression, and then raised her hand to send out a communication talisman and entered the prohibition.

After waiting for nearly a cup of tea, a ripple of water suddenly appeared at the door of the courtyard, and then Qiao Yuan saw an innocent-looking pink-faced boy walk out.

"Childe, please come in. ”

The pink-faced boy was just building a foundation and cultivating, but he saw that Qiao Yuan did not have the slightest sense of awe, and said lightly.

Qiao Yuan naturally didn't care about this, nodded, and followed the powder-faced boy into the courtyard step by step.

Walking into the courtyard, he saw that there was only a seven-story corner tower in the small courtyard, and under the gesture of the pink-faced boy, Qiao Yuan straightened his back and strode in.

The building was extremely dim and silent, so Qiao Yuan's footsteps were extremely harsh.

"Dash...... Da ...... Da ......"

When he walked down the stairs to the second floor, he strangely found that his footsteps were getting louder and louder, but Qiao Yuan clearly knew that he had not increased his strength.

"Something is wrong!"

Qiao Yuan stood on the wooden ladder to the third floor, frowning and muttering, after thinking for a while, he guessed that this was most likely the secret trick of that senior.

With more vigilance in his heart, Qiao Yuan walked up again, but this time, he deliberately reduced the intensity of his steps, trying his best not to make a sound.

"Dash...... Da ...... Da ......"

The footsteps still existed, but it was much smaller, Qiao Yuan quickened his pace, and soon reached the fifth floor.

But as soon as he stepped on the fifth floor, the sound of his footsteps exploded in his ears like thunder, making Qiao Yuan frown and be vigilant.

But his footsteps did not stop, and he walked faster towards the seventh floor, and the sound became louder and louder, and in the end it was almost equivalent to a big bell overhead, and someone was desperately striking the big bell.

No matter whether Qiao Yuan closed his hearing or stopped, the sound was always there, lingering, and his mind was roaring and his heart was irritable.

Fortunately, there were only two floors, Qiao Yuan quickened his pace, and stepped on the seventh floor in just a moment, and the voice also dispersed.

The seventh floor is not large, and there are elegant and exquisite tables and chairs as far as the eye can see, and there are beaded curtains made of dark jade and jade around it.

On the other side of the beaded curtain, a man in a crimson coat sat cross-legged with his back to Qiao Yuan, and before he could see the situation in the building, he heard a cold drink.

"You have the audacity to disturb the tranquility of this seat. ”

The voice was not loud, but it contained an extremely strong coercion, which made Qiao Yuan's scalp numb, and his heart trembled and almost collapsed.

Cold sweat instantly wet his back, and the look of horror in Qiao Yuan's eyes was clearly visible, and he secretly said that it was not good, and then he hurriedly bowed down and said apologetically.

"Seniors, juniors have just arrived, if there is any offense, I hope that the seniors Haihan. ”

The man turned around suddenly, his eyes as bright as stars were cold and awe-inspiring, staring at Qiao Yuan and snorting coldly, and said lightly.

"Just once. ”

Qiao Yuan shouted luck, and at the same time he was quite puzzled in his heart, the thunderous footsteps just now should have been deliberately given by this person, wanting to knock and knock himself.

But looking at his appearance at the moment, the coldness is clearly visible, not like the appearance of giving Ma Wei.

Even Qiao Yuan saw a trace of unkindness from the coldness, which was not there when they met at the inn before.

Thinking of this, Qiao Yuan was more vigilant in his heart, and it was better to stay away from this person in the future.

"Seniors, juniors and friends from Lijiang have already won and lost, I wonder if you can say what you need help from juniors?"

"It's still twenty years before the Forbidden Source Land opens, and when the time comes, I'll let you know. ”

The man put away the coldness in his eyes and said in an unquestioning tone.

Qiao Yuan's brows frowned slightly, and he was a little worried in his heart, but the man seemed to be able to see through his thoughts, and then said.

"Don't worry, there will be other arrangements in this seat to ensure that you can get out of the forbidden source land alive. ”

In fact, when he said this, the man sneered in his heart, and secretly said If your kid doesn't come back alive, how can this seat avenge the revenge of the year.

I still remember that a month ago, he saw Qiao Yuan in the mirror to use the moonrise to break through the clouds, and a trace of murderous intent flashed in his eyes.

"So the juniors are relieved. ”

Qiao Yuan pretended to breathe a sigh of relief on his face, but he was still vigilant in his heart.

"Little friend, I don't know which sect you come from in the Nantai Continent, and who is your teacher? When I was young, I traveled to the Nantai Continent, maybe I met your elders. ”

Just as he was thinking about how to leave as soon as possible, the man asked in a soft tone with a faint smile on the corner of his mouth.

Qiao Yuan did not hesitate at all, and replied calmly.

"Back to the seniors, the younger generations have no sect or faction, just a casual cultivation. ”

He had already considered this matter, leaving the Nantai Continent and coming to an unfamiliar region, his previous identity was naturally of no use, for the sake of prudence, it was safer to say that it was safer to cultivate casually.

The man's eyes flashed slightly, remembering the memories he learned from Qinglian's sea of knowledge, and he didn't know much about Qiao Yuan, it seemed that he was a loose cultivator with no sect and no sect, and he entered the Hehuan Sect by accident and had an intersection with Qinglian.

"Loose cultivation? Hmph, the Rising Moon and Sky Technique is not something that can be learned by a casual cultivator. ”

The man did not show the slightest discoloration on his face, and nodded, but he sneered and ridiculed in his heart, and he was even more sure that Qiao Yuan was the descendant of his enemy.

"You take this thing, and before the Forbidden Source Land is opened, this seat will use it to communicate to you. ”

The man took out a palm-sized token from his wide red sleeves, threw it to Qiao Yuan, and said lightly.

Qiao Yuan took the token, swept his senses, and didn't find anything strange, so he held it in the palm of his hand and said goodbye.

The man didn't have any intention of retaining, but when he turned around, he reminded him lightly.

"Little friend, be careful when you go downstairs. ”

Qiao Yuan was stunned, nodded, and then took a light and steady step and landed on the wooden ladder, but did not make a sound.

After walking out of the courtyard, Qiao Yuan breathed a sigh of relief, and he actually had the feeling of walking around the edge of the cliff.

This feeling was very bad, and he didn't want to stay in this Shengyuan auction house for a moment, and he didn't want to stay in Kyoto City.

Thinking of this, Qiao Yuan hurriedly said goodbye to Hongying and wanted to leave here, but Hongying was flattering, her red lips were pursed, her soft tail note was lengthened, and she deliberately laughed.

"Qiao Daoyou, why are you in such a hurry to leave, is it because you want to elope with Miss Bailian?"

As soon as these words came out, Qiao Yuan didn't react, but Qinglian blushed and glared at Hongying in shame.

"I really have something urgent in the next place, and when I come to Kyoto City next time, I will definitely come to visit Hongying Daoyou. ”

Qiao Yuan said with a straight face, and after speaking, he turned around directly, Hongying bit her soft red lips, stepped forward, and stopped in front of him.

"Wait a minute, someone wants to see you. ”
