Chapter 2: The Wicked Guest Arrives
"Ah Chen, why are you so frizzy, don't you know that the old man is talking to the young master?" I saw a man wearing cyan short sleeves and a simple face scolding Fu Bo, and he just nodded curtly, but the angry expression on his face couldn't be hidden.
"No, Steward Fu, it's that Young Master Du is really ・・・・・・ he said that this Mu family will soon have the surname ・・・・・・. Before he finished speaking, Mu Ping stood at the door and said to the man with a smile: "Ah Chen, it's okay, you go and do your own work first, I'll deal with these things." ”
"Yes, sir. The man named Ah Chen nodded, and then withdrew. It's just the anger in his eyes and the expression of unwillingness, which shows the anger in his heart.
"Then Du Ming came here late at night, why, is it because of ・・・・・・" Thinking of this Mu Ping's face, it became extremely ugly.
"The Du family in Hongjiang Town, which borders my Mu family's Tianlong Town, doesn't seem to have anything to do with my Mu family! What are they doing here?" Mu Hao muttered in his heart.
Speaking of the Du family, it is a medium-sized immortal cultivator family with a higher strength than the Mu family, and the Hongjiang Town under its control is not only four times the size of Tianlong Town, but also has a small spiritual stone vein, which is a tyrant of Linjiang City in Qianguo.
In the world of cultivating immortals, in addition to the elixir that can help immortal cultivators increase their cultivation speed, there is also an ore called "spirit stone" that can increase their cultivation speed, and the spirit stones are lower-grade, middle-grade, and high-grade in order, and the exchange ratio between them is also one to ten, that is, a medium-grade spirit stone can be exchanged for ten lower-grade spirit stones, and so on.
"Grandpa, I'll go with you, I also want to see the strong man of the Jindan period?" Mu Hao said to Mu Ping with a smile.
This Du family is the number one immortal cultivator in the Qianguo Immortal Cultivation Realm, and there are about twenty monks in the foundation building period of his family, and there are hundreds of monks in the Qi refining period, and the head of his family is an immortal cultivator of the third layer of Jindan, I heard that there is an ancestor of the eighth layer of Jindan in his family, which is far from being comparable to the immortal cultivation family of the Mu family with only two monks in the foundation building period and seventeen monks in the Qi refining period.
Hearing Mu Hao's words, Mu Ping was stunned for a moment. Looking at Mu Hao's longing eyes, he finally nodded reluctantly and said, "Since Hao'er wants to go and see, let's come over together." With that, he took a stride forward.
Follow Muping through the backyard and into the living room. Mu Hao's somewhat puzzled gaze swept over the unfamiliar four, among the four, an old man in a white robe was sitting on the Taishi chair and gently tapping on the armrest, with a smile on his face. A pair of somewhat cloudy eyes, but they are shining. Beside him stood a pair of men and women, they were also wearing the same white robes, the young man was about seventeen or eighteen years old, handsome appearance, with a tall figure, very heroic.
This girl is the same age as Mu Hao, and the girl's delicate earlobes are hung with a jade pendant, shaking slightly, there is a crisp jade sound, and a touch of charm and moving is suddenly revealed. Although she is only a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl, she has begun to raise delicate small breasts, coupled with her moving temperament, it is inevitable that people will not be tempted.
Mu Hao's gaze only stayed on the girl's cold little face for an instant and then moved away, no matter what, under his young appearance, he had a mature soul, although the girl was very beautiful. However, his behavior seemed to surprise the girl a little, although she was not the kind of girl who thought that the world revolved around her, but what her beauty and temperament were, she couldn't be clearer, Mu Hao's casual actions, really surprised her a little, of course, that's all!.
"I don't know what's going on, I want Brother Du to visit late at night!" Mu Ping said with a smile to the white-robed old man who was sitting under him, and even a little awe in his words.
"Brother Mu, I came to visit late at night, but I have something important to discuss with you, but for the good of your family!" the old man said with a smile, but the laughter was full of aggressiveness.
"Oh, I don't know what's going on, it's good for my Mu family?" Mu Ping was surprised at first, and then asked with a little curiosity.
"Look, Brother Shepherd. Your Mu family has failed the sect assessment twice for ten years, and I heard that your only grandson, Mu Hao, opened up the meridians of the whole body three years ago, but his talent is extraordinary. This is Ling Sun, and he is really a talent. The old man glanced at Mu Hao and said with a smile.
After a pause, the old man said with a look of regret: "It's just that I haven't succeeded in rushing for three years, it's not that I say discouraged words, I'm afraid that Sun will not be able to become an immortal cultivator for the rest of his life! And after the sect assessment three months later, this Tianlong Town is probably about to change hands! I think, with the friendship between my Du family and your Mu family for many years, there is no reason not to help, you say yes!"
"Since Brother Du is willing to help my family, it's really good, I don't know how to help!"
Mu Hao, who was standing on the side, clenched his hands into fists, and said in his heart: "I'm afraid that it's not good! If I succeed in the rush, why will I be ridiculed and put the family in crisis." ”
"As long as your pastoral family is attached to my Du family. Before the old man could answer, the young man standing beside him answered, and his words were full of pride, as if the Mu family was attached to the Du family and took advantage of it.
In the world of cultivating immortals, if an immortal cultivator family is unable to complete the sect assessment, they can attach themselves to a powerful immortal cultivator and let it replace its assessment. It's just that the dependent family is obedient to the lord's family from now on, and must not disobey in the slightest, lose all autonomy, and completely become a vassal.
"Could it be that the children of the Du family are this Xiangzi, there is no tutor at all, this is the Mu family, not your Du family. Mu Hao scolded the young man loudly. Mu Hao was an orphan in his last life, and he had never seen his parents since he was a child, only his grandfather Muping was a relative. The dragon has anti-aging, and Mu Ping is Mu Hao's anti-scale. The boy's disrespectful behavior towards Mu Ping completely angered Mu Hao.
"Boy, you are who dares to scold me, believe it or not・・・・・・ ”
"Ding'er, why are you so rude, apologize quickly. The old man scolded the young man, but he was full of pampering in this scolding, and the young man just "snorted" and stopped talking, without apologizing at all.
"Forget it, forget it, it's inevitable that young people will be impulsive. Mu Ping said with a smile, but his eyes looking at Mu Hao were full of relief. Then he said solemnly: "Brother Du's intention, I think I understand, it's just that even if my Mu family is removed from the list of immortal cultivation families, it will not belong to any family." I appreciate Brother Du's kindness. ”
"Brother Shepherd, don't be angry with the rude behavior of the child, listen to me. As long as your Mu family is willing to attach to my Du family, my Du family can not only help your Mu family maintain the status of the immortal cultivation family, but also control Tianlong Town. I even married my granddaughter Du Ya to Ling Sun Muhao. This granddaughter of mine is not only beautiful and moving, but also a dual-attribute spiritual root of gold and fire, maybe she can give birth to a descendant of a dual-attribute spiritual root for your herdsman, and inherit the incense of your herdsman's cultivation of immortals. After the old man finished speaking, he pointed to the girl standing beside him.
The girl who was pointed at by the old man frowned when she heard this, and looked at Mu Hao with disgust. Obviously, no matter how good Mu Hao is, as long as he is a waste material who can't cultivate immortals, he is not worthy of her at all.
Then the old man smiled and pointed to the young man who had just bumped into Mu Ping and said, "Not only that, Ding'er is also the strength of the three attribute spirit roots of Jinmu and Fire, the strength of the fourth layer of qi refining, with his talent and strength, he can definitely enter the top ten in this Qianyang Sect assessment competition." This achievement can not only keep your status as a herdsman and immortal cultivator and control of Tianlong Town. It is even possible to bring a companion into the Qianyang Sect and cultivate with him, this quota obviously wants to give other talented children in my clan, and now it can be given to Ling Sun. In the Qianyang Sect, maybe Ling Sun will get some adventures, and he will succeed in rushing and becoming an immortal cultivator, so as to soar to the sky!"
After listening to the old man's conditions, Mu Ping's resolute expression was a little loose, obviously it was the old man's conditions that moved Mu Ping.
"No wonder, this kid is so arrogant, it turns out that he is a genius of cultivating immortals, not only is his talent extraordinary, but his strength is also extraordinary. Mu Hao glanced at the young man and said silently in his heart.
"I heard that in order to buy a Chongxuan Pill, Brother Mu used the Zhen clan exercise "Suyang Gong" as a collateral and owed 10,000 gold coins on credit to Wanbao Pavilion. This account can also be repaid by my Du family for you, it is better than Brother Mu half a year later, handing over the Zhen clan exercise "Suyang Gong". And every year, he can provide ten lower-grade spirit stones for his brother Mu for cultivation. The old man saw that Mu Ping still didn't agree, and directly threw out a more tempting condition.
"Grandpa, I don't want this Chongxuan Dan, how can you use "Suyang Gong" as collateral. Mu Hao exclaimed, a thin layer of mist appeared in his eyes.
"Hao'er, it's okay, just enter the Ten Thousand Beasts Mountain Range a few more times. Mu Ping said comfortingly to Mu Hao, and then said to the white-robed old man solemnly: "I hope that Brother Du will give me some time, think about it, and I will definitely give you an answer before the sect's assessment period comes." ”
"Okay, after three months, I hope that Brother Mu will give me a satisfactory answer, and I hope that I will forgive me for the trouble, then we will leave first. After speaking, the old man stood up and led the young man and girl beside him out of the gate of the Mu family.
When the girl passed by Mu Hao, Mu Hao heard a low and cold mocking voice: "If you are a man, don't agree." Before Mu Hao could answer, he passed by Mu Hao's side with a look of disdain.
As if he hadn't heard this, Mu Hao still had a smiling expression, but his clenched fists and nails pierced into the flesh, and he didn't notice it.
"Hao'er, cultivate well, strive to succeed as soon as possible, and become an immortal cultivator, don't take these things to heart. Mu Ping touched Mu Hao's head and said with a smile, but this smile was full of bitterness.
"Grandpa, do you have to be in the top ten in the assessment competition before you can pass the assessment and keep the status of my Mu family's immortal cultivation family?" Mu Hao thought about it, and still asked Mu Ping. Although Mu Hao knew that he was not even successful in rushing now, let alone having the strength of the fourth layer of qi refining like Du Ding, he entered the top ten.
