Chapter Thirty-Eight: The Journey
Lin Xi naturally had no idea about this impending danger, except for the qualification to enter the Tianhua Secret Realm and the reward he was sent by the Law Enforcement Hall yesterday night, his biggest gain in this big competition was in addition to Wei Zheng's big trouble.
Two years ago, he was chased and killed by three Jindan Realm masters, and it became his nightmare for a while, the disciple of the Law Enforcement Hall who killed Senior Brother Liang was a thorn in his heart, if it wasn't for Wei Zheng to open his mouth today, Lin Xi still didn't know who he was.
An unknown enemy is far more terrifying than an opponent on the surface.
But having said that, Wei Zheng obviously realized Lin Xi's identity a long time ago, but he did not secretly do it, but challenged him openly, and this alone has to be admired.
The forces behind Wei Zheng couldn't deal with it at all with Lin Xi's current strength, and the three Jindan Realm masters that day had very different styles of tricks from the disciples of the sect, so he couldn't be careless.
The bronze medal from the dead master's storage ring seemed to be a breakthrough.
Lin Xi's mind was racing, and after thinking about it for a while, he made a decision.
Just as he was about to leave his residence, a voice suddenly came from outside, "Is Senior Brother Lin here?"
When Lin Xi heard the voice, he hurriedly walked out of the house, and after looking at the person who came, he was suddenly startled, and shouted respectfully, "Lin Xi has seen Senior Brother!"
Tan Qingshan said, "Senior brother don't have to be polite, I came to you for an urgent matter, you can follow me to the mountaintop hall first, and then talk to you on the way." โ
"Okay!" Hearing that Tan Qingshan was so eager, Lin Xi couldn't help but straighten up a little, and hurriedly nodded and agreed.
"That's the case, there is an important guest in this vein, when I see this person later, the junior brother must behave better, I won't go into details, the junior brother will know later. โ
As soon as the two of them took off into the air, Tan Qingshan spoke a few words very quickly, Lin Xi was confused when he heard it, and was about to ask a few words, but Tan Qingshan made a silent gesture, as if he was afraid that someone would hear it.
The flight speed of the two of them was naturally extremely fast, and it didn't take long for them to come to the main hall on the top of the mountain.
Tan Qingshan whispered again, "This matter is very important, junior brother must behave well in front of that senior!"
When Lin Xi heard this, he felt nervous for no reason, nodded hurriedly, and strode into the hall, but Tan Qingshan stood respectfully outside the hall and did not come in with him.
In the hall at this time, Qin Guan and a beautiful woman in white were sitting, looking to be thirty or forty years old, holding a floating dust, dignified and generous, but their expressions were cold, as if they were ice sculptures.
It seems that it is precisely because of this woman that it makes people feel that the whole hall is cold and cold.
Qin Guan was saying something to this woman, with a smile on his face, and seemed to be very afraid of this woman.
And Shao Yun and Lan Fengrong, although they both had seats behind them, they were both standing.
Seeing this scene, Lin Xi's heart jumped, and he hurriedly stepped forward to salute, "Disciple Lin Xi, I have seen two masters, masters, and seniors!"
After saying this, Lin Xi waited respectfully for a few people to respond, but it didn't take long for his face to freeze.
Because for a long time, no one paid attention to him.
Qin Guan said something to the woman with a smile on his face, but the other party had an impatient look, glared at Lan Fengrong from time to time, and occasionally said a few words, and his tone was like an elder.
As for Lan Fengrong, her face was flushed at the moment, and she stood aside and was reprimanded like a little girl.
Shao Yun, the uncle, even though his expression is no different from usual, but at this moment, he is also looking at his nose and nose, and he doesn't say a word.
After listening to the conversation of several people for a while, Lin Xi's heart suddenly dawned, no wonder Tan Qingshan repeatedly instructed him to behave well and dare to love this woman in white, who was actually the sister of his master Lan Fengrong!
Seeing the vicious appearance of this female fierce god, Lin Xi suddenly cried out in distress.
As for the content of the conversation between several people, it is nothing more than that Lan Fengrong has been away for many years and has never visited her sister, and what kind of flesh and blood family relationship cannot be forgotten, Lin Xi was confused, but gradually understood a general idea.
"This is your disciple?"
I don't know how long it took, the beautiful woman in white's face softened slightly, and then after glancing at Lin Xi, she asked lightly.
Lan Fengrong hurriedly said, "Sister Mingjian, his name is Lin Xi, it's me..."
Before she finished speaking, the beautiful woman waved her hand to interrupt her, stared at Lin Xi suspiciously, and said coldly, "It's not that I don't like what I say, do you think this kid can do things stupidly?"
When Lin Xi heard this, he was immediately embarrassed.
The beautiful woman saw his reaction in her eyes, smiled coldly, and said, "What, am I wrong?"
Lin Xi was speechless for a while, but seeing that Qin Guan, Shao Yun, and Lan Fengrong all looked at it, he bowed and said, "What the senior said is naturally right. โ
The beautiful woman said coldly, "What you think in your heart, you know better than anyone else!
Lin Xi smiled bitterly, "Where did the seniors see that the disciples were stupid?"
The beautiful woman snorted coldly and said, "Those who grow are stupid." โ
Lin Xi froze in vain, unable to say a word for most of the day.
Seeing this, Lan Fengrong couldn't help but smile bitterly and said, "Sister, don't blame him." โ
The beautiful woman glared at her and said, "Why, can't my sister even say a few words about your disciple?
After speaking, he glared at Shao Yun again, and sneered, "The dignified Chifeng Marquis, he has no ability, but he hides his head and tail in a small sect, and he is not ashamed!"
Shao Yun arched his hand and said, "What my sister said is true." โ
The beautiful woman was suffocated, and then looked at Qin Guan again, Qin Guan hurriedly said, "What my sister said is very true." โ
The beautiful woman was suddenly furious, and her face turned pale and said, "You... You're mad at me!"
Lan Fengrong hurriedly said, "Sister is angry, how dare we make my sister angry?"
The beautiful woman said angrily, "Then you are still so perfunctory to me!"
Lan Fengrong smiled bitterly, "Where did we perfunctory my sister?"
The beautiful woman said, "The kid surnamed Tan just now was stupid, and now this one is even more stupid!
Lan Fengrong was surprised, "I still don't understand, what are the two children of Qingshan and Lin Xi who are stupid?"
The beautiful woman snorted coldly, "I look stupid, that's stupid!"
Lan Fengrong whispered, "Back then, Senior Brother Shao was also very stupid in your eyes. โ
The beautiful woman glared at Shao Yun and said angrily, "He was stupid before, but now he is even more stupid! If he wasn't a fool, who would be able to do such a thing as destroying people!"
After speaking, he glared at Qin Guan again, and said, "The three of your brother and sister married Jin Lan righteously, needless to say, but at the time of the incident, you, as the eldest brother, did not stop Shao Yun, but instigated him to kill, is there a big brother like you?"
Lan Fengrong's face changed slightly, and she said, "What did my sister say!"
The beautiful woman seemed to think of something at once, and immediately stopped speaking, and after a moment said, "In short, you have to think well, and if you really think you can, it doesn't hurt to send a fool over!
Lan Fengrong took a deep breath and said, "Lin Xi is the sixth place in the Sword Mansion this year's competition, if he is a fool, then I am afraid that no one in the entire Sword Mansion will dare to call himself a genius." โ
"A mere Moissanjian Mansion, what is the sixth place!" When the beautiful woman heard this, she was suddenly a little moved, and couldn't help but glance at Lin Xi carefully, but she still didn't give up.
Lan Fengrong said, "Lin Xi is my most proud disciple, my sister might as well let him give it a try." โ
When the beautiful woman heard this, she immediately hesitated.
Qin Guan saw that she was shaken, and hurriedly said, "Lin Xi has only been in the field for three years, and he has achieved the sixth place in the Sword Mansion Competition, and his qualifications are not inferior even if they are compared to the elite disciples of the four major sects. โ
Shao Yun glanced at Lin Xi and said, "It's indeed appropriate to let him go." โ
Lan Fengrong said again, "Sister, this kid..."
"Needless to say," said the beautiful woman with a sigh of relief before she could finish speaking, "since you have all said so, what else can I say." โ
Saying that, she stood up and said, "Since the person has been decided, then I won't stay longer, you three can do it yourself!"
After saying this, he beckoned to Lin Xi and strode out of the main hall.
Lan Fengrong hurriedly said, "Since my sister is here, I might as well stay for a few more days, why leave in a hurry." โ
Qin Guan also stood up and said, "Anyway, this matter is not in a hurry." โ
The beautiful woman said, "It's been more than half a month since I left the mountain gate, and Ling'er, Wuhe, and haven't left me for half a step since I was a child, I'm afraid I'm a little unaccustomed." โ
After speaking, he said to Lin Xi, "Why are you still stunned, let's go!"
Lin Xi hurriedly said, "Yes." โ
But he began to secretly complain in his heart, until now he didn't know what he was about to do, what place he was going, looking at Lan Fengrong's demeanor of wanting to speak and stopping, it was obvious that he had something to tell him, but this senior clearly did not mean to let the two of them contact each other alone.
Seeing that the beautiful woman had already walked outside the main hall, Lin Xi had no choice but to follow, and as the beautiful woman waved her hand to shoot out a spiritual cloud and roll him up, the two of them took off into the air and flew quickly towards the south.
Qin Guan and the three of them followed closely behind, and when they saw this scene, they immediately let out a long sigh and became helpless.
Tan Qingshan, who was waiting outside, looked at Lin Xi's back with deep pity in his eyes.

The land of Cangwu, Kyushu is connected, the territory is vast, the land is vast, someone once said that the cangwu is big, from east to west there are thousands of miles away, from south to north there are also thousands of miles away, but now Lin Xi knows that the cangwu is big, not to mention thousands of miles.
From the time they left the Sword Mansion to the present, the two of them have been flying for two months, and there are still many cities in their field of vision, with smoke curling and no end in sight.
With Lin Xi's speed, he can travel about three hundred miles a day, and Lan Fengrong's sister is at least five times faster than him, so if you calculate it, in half a month, they have left Moissan, at least nearly 100,000 miles.
If it weren't for this woman's cold attitude from beginning to end, Lin Xi couldn't help but want to ask her, where are the two going?
At this moment, Lin Xi was holding a map in his hand, which he bought at the market when he passed by Ningcheng in Jizhou a few days ago, and the two did not continue to go to Qingzhou after arriving in Jizhou, but turned a corner halfway, and are now on the way to Cangzhou.
In the territory of Cangwu, Cangzhou, Laizhou, Wuzhou is the south, Qingzhou, Jizhou, Dingzhou is the middle, Xizhou, Xiongzhou, Youzhou is the north, from Youzhou to Cangzhou, across most of Cangwu.
After looking at the map over and over again, and confirming his location again, Lin Xi carefully put it away, but there was a sneering voice from the beautiful woman in his ears:
"I've actually looked at a broken map so many times, it's really right to say that you are stupid! If the Cangwu map was so easy to buy, the Xiliang army would have attacked it a long time ago!"
Lin Xi's expression remained unchanged at all, and he took out the map again and looked at it a few times, and after a long time, he found the word "Xiliang" from the westernmost side of the map.
"It turns out that Xiliang is so small. He muttered to himself.
The beautiful woman was stunned and couldn't speak for most of the day.
After a long time, she glanced at Lin Xi deeply and said, "It seems that you are really stupid, not pretending." โ
Lin Xi glanced at her and said angrily, "Is it wrong?"
The beautiful woman didn't answer, but threw over a stack of boxy drawings and said, "Just look at this and you'll know." โ
Lin Xi was surprised to take the drawing, opened it and took a look, and found that this was also a map, much more detailed than his own, and the depicted area was nearly five times larger.
On this map, Xiliang, which originally didn't look big, suddenly became a territory that was ninety percent large, and there were two places in Zhongzhou and Songhai on the same side, and in the center of this map, there were two big characters written "wasteland".
The beautiful woman looked at him and explained, "This is the complete map of the wasteland, within the wasteland, there are four major territories of Zhongzhou, Cangwu, Songhai, and Xiliang, in comparison, our overall strength in Cangwu is slightly weaker than Zhongzhou, and slightly stronger than Songhai and Xiliang." โ
Then she pointed to a place called Nanling in Wuzhou, "The place we are going to is Nanling." โ
Lin Xi glanced at Nanling, then nodded, folded the map, and returned it to the beautiful woman.
The beautiful woman had an expression of disbelief, and it took a long time before she said, "You don't know Nanling?"
Lin Xi was stunned and said, "It's the first time I've heard of Wuzhou, how can I know about Nanling?"
The beautiful woman immediately showed an expression of looking at a fool, but Lin Xi had already seen it.
The beautiful woman said, "Have you ever heard of the Forbidden Sky Technique?"
Lin Xi was taken aback, and hurriedly said, "Naturally, I've heard of it, could it be that Nanling has something to do with the Forbidden Sky Technique?"
The beautiful woman was speechless and said, "How can they have a relationship! However, Nanling has a lot to do with the Forbidden Sky Array. โ
She went on to explain, "Historically, there was a big war between Cangwu and Xiliang every few years, in the territory of Xiliang, there was a natural gravity field everywhere, and the Cangwu army could not enter, but Xiliang could invade Cangwu at any time. โ
"This situation didn't change until 30 years ago..."
With the introduction of the beautiful woman, gradually, Lin Xi also had an understanding of this period of history.
