Chapter 506: Change of Mind
Jiangfu is also magnificent, the vermilion promenade that can be seen everywhere, the pavilions and water pavilions, there are green lakes in the distance, although it is autumn, but the back garden is full of flowers, a group of butterflies fluttering, green vines around the wood.

Xiao Chen and Chu Qi walked for a while, going around, still not arriving at the living room of the front hall, on the way met a maid with clear eyebrows, so he followed the maid to the living room, to the living room, the maid made tea for the two, and said: "Please stay for a while, I will go and invite the master to come over." ”
After the maid finished speaking, she went out, Xiao Chen sat on the chair, looked up at the layout in the living room, and Chu Qi was silent all the time, about a tea time, and a burst of footsteps gradually sounded outside, getting closer and closer.
"Xiao Shaoxia, you're awake. ”
Seeing Jiang Beitian walk in from the outside quickly, Xiao Chen also got up immediately, and said with a smile: "I have been taken care of by the city lord of Laojiang these days." ”
"Xiao Shaoxia is polite, please sit, please sit. Jiang Beitian smiled and looked very enthusiastic.
Xiao Chen looked at him, thinking to himself that the people outside said that he didn't have a trace of cultivation, is that really the case?
The two chatted for a while, Xiao Chen spoke appropriately, trying not to talk about his own business, and of course he would not mention the matter of the million spirit stones, and after a while, Jiang Beicai smiled and ordered a guard outside to walk in.
Seeing that the guard was holding a small brocade box in his hand, it seemed to be a little heavy, Xiao Chen's eyes swept away, but his face still looked calm and waveless, and he smiled faintly.
Jiang Beitian took the brocade box in the guard's hand, and as soon as he opened the box, the whole room was suddenly filled with a mellow aura, only to see that there were twenty spirit stones with a faint blue light neatly placed in the box, each spirit stone was the size of a palm, and the purity was extremely high, it was the best among the spirit stones, not only could it be used as a universal currency, but also could directly absorb the spiritual power inside.
"Here are twenty six-grade spirit stones, ten of which are Xiao Shaoxia's reward for winning the sword championship, and the other ten are Jiang's thanks to Xiao Shaoxia for saving the little girl's life that day. Jiang Beitian said with a smile.
In Zifu, if it is a universal currency, it is based on one grade spirit stone, six grade spirit stones are equivalent to one hundred thousand one-grade spirit stones, and twenty six-grade spirit stones are two million spirit stones, but at present, these twenty six-grade spirit stones are all very pure and superb, and the value is far more than two million spirit stones, if they are used as currency, it is really a bit of a waste.
Xiao Chen suppressed the excitement in his heart at the moment, his face still looked calm, and he still had a smile on his face: "This ...... How dare Xiao accept such a valuable gift from the Jiang City Lord. ”
When he spoke, he didn't look at the brocade box, Jiang Beitian smiled and said: "Xiao Shaoxia doesn't need to be polite, if Xiao Shaoxia refuses to accept it, Jiang Mou feels a little unhappy in his heart." ”
"That being the case, then thank you to City Lord Jiang for your kindness. Xiao Chen smiled, looked at Chu Qi, and then immediately turned his head and diverted the topic before Jiang Beitian: "By the way, City Lord Jiang, there is something Xiao is not clear, can you ask City Lord Jiang?"
Xiao Shaoxia said that it didn't matter. ”
Xiao Chen said: "I saw that the structure of the fighting platform was exquisite, but why did it suddenly malfunction?"
He thought that Ren Tianxing was missing, and if he wanted to find it, he would have to intervene from his old man, but he couldn't say that he wanted to find Ren Tianxing, because now he and Jiang Beitian hadn't reached the level of rebellion.
Jiang Beitian said: "It's not a secret, this fighting platform was designed by Master Ren back then, but it was only due to disrepair that it broke down, and I really can't stand Xiao Shaoxia." ”
Xiao Chen said: "It's okay, it was originally designed by Master Ren, no wonder it was so ingenious, but hasn't Master Ren come back all these years?"
As he spoke, Xiao Chen's eyes stayed on Jiang Beitian's face, wanting to find a trace of different emotional changes from his face, only to see Jiang Beitian sigh and say, "Yes, it's been several years, and I haven't seen Master Ren come back." ”
"Oh, then where did Master Ren go for the last time?" Xiao Chen still didn't look away, and continued to ask, he felt that things would never be so simple.
Jiang Beitian also raised his head and looked at him, at this moment, the two looked at each other, as if they wanted to find something from each other's eyes, the atmosphere in the living room suddenly became a little strange for a while, and after a short silence, Xiao Chen smiled and said: "City Lord Jiang, don't misunderstand, I just asked casually." ”
Jiang Beitian nodded, and sighed again: "Actually, there is nothing to hide, Master Ren is very famous, many people have heard of him, but where was the last time he appeared, some say that he was in the realm of death, some say that he was in the realm of life, and some people say that he went to other realms, and all kinds of theories are different." ”
Xiao Chen smiled, he didn't believe Jiang Beitian's words, Jiang Beitian definitely knew something, but he would never tell himself an outsider.
"By the way, I almost forgot about it. Jiang Beitian also smiled at this time and diverted the topic, took out two delicate jade notes from his arms, and handed them to him: "This is the jade paper of the Cloud Mist Courtyard, this time Xiao Shaoxia won a place, and there is another place that Chongyang Zhenren decided to give to the seventh girl of the junior high school." ”
Xiao Chen took the jade note, what kind of cloud courtyard is this, he didn't even think about going, and said with a smile: "So, thank you City Lord Jiang, I don't know where my friends are now?"
"They are also in the mansion, I will take Xiao Shaoxia there, please. ”
At that moment, Xiao Chen followed him to find Yang Qing and the others, and after Jiang Beitian left, Yang Qing whispered, "Brother Xiao is okay, right?"
Xiao Chen shook his head and said contemplatively: "I will leave today and leave Yanzhou City." Yang Qing was stunned: "Leaving in such a hurry, isn't Brother Xiao going to the Cloud Mist Courtyard?"
"What am I going to do there?"
Yang Qing was even more stunned, but it was no wonder, Xiao Chen was not a person in a difficult situation, so he didn't know what the Cloud Mist Courtyard was, thinking of this, Yang Qing looked outside, and only after making sure that there was no one did he say: "Brother Xiao, in fact, I have always wanted to tell you before, if you want to win over people to form a force, the Cloud Mist Courtyard is the best place to go." ”
When Xiao Chen heard this, his expression also became solemn, he came to the suffering realm this time, one was to find Ren Tianxing, and the other was to win over his own forces, and asked, "How to say?"
Yang Qing whispered in his ear: "Cloud Mist Academy is not a certain force, but equivalent to an academy, and you have also seen its entry qualifications, even Liu Qing can't enter, the people who can enter Cloud Mist Academy can be said to be one in a hundred, and they will also enter a certain force in the future, so it's better for Brother Xiao to win over ...... as soon as possible."
Xiao Chen's eyes froze, and he understood what he meant, if it was really as he said, this was indeed a good way, you know, with his current ability, it was impossible to pull those older generations of the Transformation God Realm Mahayana Realm, but if it was the fresh blood of the Cultivation Realm, it would be different.
Now that the era of annihilation has arrived, the older generation, whether it is combat power or status, is of course extremely important, but the strength of the rising stars must not be underestimated, it is the back waves of the Yangtze River that push the front waves, these young powerhouses are definitely expected to surpass their predecessors in the future, so they are definitely more important than one or two Mahayana realm cultivators!
Xiao Chen settled down, thinking that now in the five continents, even if it is as strong as the Tianlan Sect, there are only a few disciples in the late Yuan Infant period plus Zuo Qiu Yang at the peak of the Yuan Infant Stage, and most of the rest are still in the early Yuan Infant Stage, or even the Yudan. And the young powerhouses that he brought back from the Cloud Mist Courtyard must be the peak of the Yuan Infant, and even the Extinction Realm.
If Brother Xiao Ning and Gu Feng also came to take charge, wouldn't they directly surpass those so-called gate sects? Wouldn't they become a great force in the Purple Realm in one fell swoop?
Yang Qing saw that he had already changed his mind, and continued: "Not only that, the Cloud Mist Academy is the best place to cultivate, within three years after Brother Xiao goes, he will definitely cultivate to the great advance, what is the reason not to go?"
Xiao Chen pondered for a moment, thinking that after he came to the Purple Mansion, he was always distracted by various things, and he had never cultivated well, although his cultivation seemed to be higher than that of others in his generation, but the strong people in this world were like clouds, maybe compared to the real powerhouses, he was nothing at all, and it seemed that it was really necessary to improve his cultivation, so that he could face the unpredictable future more calmly, and he could better serve the public in the future.
Thinking of this, Xiao Chen nodded heavily: "Okay, I'll go to this Cloud Mist Courtyard!" After speaking, he looked at Chu Qi, Chu Qi was silent, but since Xiao Chen was going, she must be by her side.
Next, the group quit Jiang Beitian and left Yanzhou City, although Jiang Qianqian was also going to Yunwu Courtyard, Xiao Chen would definitely not be with her.
The Cloud Mist Courtyard is in the southwest corner of the Dead Realm, a place called White Mist City, tens of thousands of miles away from Yanzhou City, and the geographical division in the Bitter Realm is actually equivalent to the division of the five continents of the Purple Realm, and the registration time of the Cloud Mist Courtyard is on September 28, that is, there is still half a month, Xiao Chen is not in a hurry to hurry, and when he encounters a sparsely populated place, he will take the sword, and the densely populated place will change to a carriage.
Of course, although this road seems to be easy and comfortable, Xiao Chen still has not relaxed his vigilance, especially staying at night, he must be careful and vigilant, he still remembers that he was attacked and killed by an unknown person on the night of the sword, although he still doesn't know who the other party is, but the other party must have been eyeing him.
Time flies quickly, half a month has passed in a blink of an eye, when it is late autumn, the grass and trees are withering, the world is solemn, the barren place of the bitter realm is more barren, the prosperous place is more prosperous, the white fog city is the most prosperous city in the four small realms of the bitter realm, and it is also the most dangerous city, because there is a black force called Black Horn here.
Black Horn is all over the Bitter Realm, large and small, and this is just a harbor for them, they trade in people, including slaves, women, children, and not only human trafficking, but they also have close ties with various forces, and they carry out unknown dark trades, including souls.
At the same time, they also shelter outlaws from all over the world, and some people will ask why the Cloud Mist Courtyard doesn't care about them, because they can't manage it at all. White Mist City is very large, called a city, it is actually bigger than a state, even if it is Tianyuan City, compared to White Mist City, it is only a small town.
White Mist City is divided into three districts, the northern city is where the Cloud Mist Courtyard is located, and the southern city is connected to the Dead Sea sea, which is where Black Point is located, so some people also call South City District Black Point City or Black Point Port, and Midtown is a borderless land, the most chaotic, and there are bloodshed every day.
When Xiao Chen first came to this city today, he couldn't help but feel a little shocked, in terms of area alone, I'm afraid that no city in the five continents can compare with it, even if it is Tianyuan City, he has walked for more than half an hour, as if he has only walked a few blocks.
At this moment, he suddenly noticed a trace of murderous aura behind him slowly approaching, the aura was getting closer and closer, he turned around, but a man in Tsing Yi was standing in front of him.
"Senior Brother Xiao. ”
