The gatekeeper next to the main entrance of the Xie clan in Chenjun.
The sound of footsteps sounded, and Xie Yuan slowly walked into the concierge. He immediately saw the familiar hooded figure, and his eyelids trembled.
Don’t even pretend to do it...
He waved to the respectful guards and servants, and then asked them to leave temporarily. For a moment, only Xie Yuan and the hooded and tightly wrapped firebender Yunxing were left in the concierge.
"Wouldn't the people of Zhikong Mountain have any objections to your behavior?"
Xie Yuan couldn't help but ask as he watched Yun Xing take off his hood freely, still revealing the thick and enchanting purple eye shadow and her beautiful fair face.
Yunxing blinked and smiled:
"Do they dare?"
Xie Yuan was silent and speechless.
"Thank you - Master, haha, I haven't seen you for a while, but you have suddenly become a big shot. Do I still have to give you a gift when I see you?"
Yunxing walked around Xie Yuan with his hands behind his back, his eyes full of interest.
Xie Yuan said calmly:
"Your Majesty, you are so polite. There is no need to kneel down."
Yunxing was stunned for a moment, his bright eyes blinked, and he bared his teeth:
"You really know how to joke...Since you don't have to bow, just serve coarse tea in the concierge. Is this how you thank the master of the house?"
She pointed to the cup of tea the concierge made for her and said with a smile.
Xie Yuan glanced at the cup of fragrant tea. Although it was only used by the concierge, Xie's hospitality meant that even here was the best tea.
And although it is a temporary resting place for the concierge, it is the main concierge and guest waiting room of the Chenjun family. It is actually wider and more exquisite than the living room of most people. It has the atmosphere of a wealthy family and is not perfunctory.
"I think it's nice here."
Xie Yuan sat aside, poured himself a glass, and drank it leisurely.
Yunxing put his hands on his hips and stared:
"I said thank you, Master, why don't you invite me in to sit for a while? It would be stingy to talk to the concierge. I have worked hard to bring you things."
Xie Yuan's heart moved when he saw Yunxing shaking a box.
Yunzhu previously reported that this guy was bringing something for the "teacher".
And he himself knew that this was some kind of master disciple of Zhikong Mountain. He was obviously the demon sect's witch and one of the four envoys.
Who else could her teacher be?
And what would that person give me?
Xie Yuan was very curious, but when he saw Yunxing shaking the box intentionally or unintentionally, he shook his head firmly:
"Your Majesty, I'm sorry, but I'll take you into the clan... Haha, let's wait until one day you take me to your main altar to have a look."
As soon as he became the head of the family, he brought his family's sworn enemy into the family's grounds to hang out. He was afraid that Xie Yi would be angry and Xie Xuan would be angry.
"How rude."
Yunxing shook his head regretfully and rolled his eyes:
"But if you want to go to the main altar, I can take you there. It depends on whether you dare or not."
Seeing Yun Xing's smile, Xie Yuan lowered his eyebrows and did not answer.
Although he didn't know where the Zao Cult's main forum was, he was just talking nonsense, and he wouldn't dare to go there even if he had more courage.
He changed the topic:
"Speaking of which, I was in the capital that day. Why didn't I see you when I came out?"
Yunxing glanced at him and said jokingly:
"Master has told you to leave the capital. I know there is trouble, why don't I run away quickly? Or...
"You can't bear to leave me and are you complaining that I didn't accompany you?"
Yunxing's voice became soft and hoarse, and her bright eyes in purple eyeshadow were full of charm.
Xie Yuan's heart skipped a beat when he saw it. He looked away calmly and took another sip of tea.
Although there are always stunning women like Mu Chaoyun and Situ Qin around him, and Xie Lingyun who hangs around him all day long is also a charming girl, this is the first time he meets a woman full of charm like Yun Xing.
Don't be fooled by bad women.
Xie Yuanzheng was secretly vigilant, Yunxing stared at him, and suddenly smiled softly, with an exaggerated look in his eyes:
"Hey, Mr. Xie, judging from your appearance, it seems that you haven't experienced what it's like to be a woman, have you?"
Xie Yuan suddenly took a sip of tea, put down the teacup, and frowned slightly:
"Envoy Yun, your Zao Cult is too unrestrained."
"Are you angry from embarrassment? You can't, right? The noble son of the Xie family in Chen County is now the head of the family. Don't you have a bed-warming maid or something like that? Or do you not know how? Little brother, how old are you this year?"
Yunxing seemed to have discovered something interesting and asked enthusiastically.
Xie Yuan originally didn't want to pay attention to her, but she kept questioning him, her tone and expression full of frivolity. He couldn't help but snorted. Haven't you ever eaten pork and seen a pig running? He also had a lot of resources before.
"Why, Master Yun is not very young yet he already knows countless people and has experienced hundreds of battles? Just look down on others."
If an ordinary woman hears this, she will definitely be annoyed.
But Yunxing didn't. She just smiled after hearing this, raised the corners of her mouth slightly, and said slowly:
"The Xie family is mainly interested in this issue. Wouldn't you know if you give it a try?
"Haha, anyway, you have driven away the servants, and there is no one else here..."
As she spoke, she pulled the collar of the burqa. Although nothing was exposed, the burqa tightened suddenly and her voluptuous figure was immediately completely stretched, revealing her curves.
?
So much? I really underestimated her.
Xie Yuan started to cough again. After all, the talk on paper was no match for the ruthless people of the Demon Sect, so he couldn't help but hold up the teacup to cover it up:
"Envoy Yun, this is Xie's concierge, not the bedroom."
"What's the matter with the concierge? I heard that you rich people like to do some fancy things. I'm afraid you think the bedroom is boring. Hehe, look at you! In fact, if you let the servants leave, they may be thinking about what the master of the house likes. What about Tiao Tiao..."
Seeing that Yun Xing's words were getting more and more outrageous, Xie Yuan couldn't resist and quickly stopped him:
"Okay, Ambassador Yun, let's tell you your reason for coming."
Yunxing chuckled, then slowly put the box on the table and sighed:
"You are heartless. I have come all the way to deliver things to you in vain. You won't even let me in."
Seeing Yunxing pushing the box over, Xie Yuan said curiously:
"What is this?"
“You’ll know if you open it.”
Xie Yuan pondered for a moment, carefully inspected it under Yun Xing's slightly mocking eyes, and then slowly opened the box.
As soon as he pushed open the lid, a mysterious aura hit his face.
Simple, lofty, chaotic, sharp...
Xie Yuan was stunned for a moment when a familiar aura came out, and his eyes narrowed.
A black candle, like a twisted branch, lay quietly on the lining.
Black Sky Book?
Xie Yuan didn't feel at all through the box that it contained the Black Sky Book.
Although Xie Yuan fantasized about it when he heard that Yun Xing came to give Situ Wan something, he never really thought about giving it to himself.
With a trace of joy in his eyes, Xie Yuan was about to reach out to take it, but saw a white and tender hand suddenly holding the box down.
Xie Yuan looked up and saw Yunxing smiling but not smiling, and said:
"Why are you so anxious?"
Xie Yuan silently retracted his hand and asked:
"Are there any conditions?"
Yunxing’s eyebrows are curved and she is smiling:
"What the hell, if the master gives you something, how can you give back the conditions?"
"Then..."
Xie Yuan was a little confused.
"But she didn't set any conditions. I've worked so hard, so it's not too much to pay for it, right?"
Yunxing blinked her big eyes wrapped in purple meaning.
Earning kickbacks makes you feel confident.
Xie Yuan cursed, but looking at the black book she was holding with her delicate hands, he patiently asked:
"What does your envoy want?"
Yunxing stared at him and curled his lips:
"I want you."
Xie Yuan twitched the corner of his mouth:
"Sorry, you are a good person..."
This time it was Yunxing's turn to look confused.
He actually said he was a good person?
Yunxing showed a slightly strange look. This comment was strange. Wouldn't he be fooled by the head of the family?
The charming girl shook her head and said:
"I'm not joking with you. If you want this Black Sky Book, you must agree to do me a favor after a while."
"What are you busy with?"
Xie Yuan suddenly frowned.
"Help me deal with someone. Haha, it's not difficult, and it won't violate your principle of hypocrisy."
Yunxing smiled.
Seeing that she was unwilling to say more, Xie Yuan couldn't help but ponder. This kind of human debt is the most troublesome, and she doesn't explain it clearly. If it gets involved, it will make people in a dilemma.
Yunxing pushed the box directly over and said leisurely:
"We're not forcing you. If you don't want to when the time comes, that's it. I'll just pretend that I didn't know the person and paid the unfaithful man by mistake."
"...I haven't agreed yet, let alone done anything to you, right?"
"Hehe, it's settled! There's no way I won't give it to you anyway. Otherwise, if the master finds out, I won't be able to bear the blame."
Yunxing made his own decision and clapped his hands with a satisfied expression.
Xie Yuan looked at the Black Sky Book in his hand, hesitated for a moment, and couldn't help but take it down.
That’s all, this thing has to be collected.
As for "kickbacks", it will depend on the specific situation at that time.
Anyway, this guy was asking for cards in private, and he didn't agree to it at all. If he didn't help her if something was wrong, she wouldn't be able to complain.
Xie Yuan carefully accepted the Black Sky Book, looked at Yunxing who had completed his task and was enjoying tea leisurely, considered for a moment, and asked slowly:
"Why did that person give me such a precious thing?"
Yunxing looked him over and said with a smile:
"Mother-in-law loves her son-in-law, this has been true since ancient times."
"………………"
Xie Yuan was silent for a while, feeling that nothing was wrong.
"However, you, your majesty, spent a lot of effort and almost had an accident to get such a valuable thing. Why did you give it to me not long ago?"
Why didn't you just give it to me directly...Xie Yuan didn't say this.
Even so, it would be too generous, even if he was taking care of himself for Situ Qin's sake.
If it was just Situ Wan's personal behavior, that would be fine; but if it was given by Zao Jiao, then Xie Yuan felt that the thing was a bit hot to touch.
I just saw the Krishna Book and couldn't move my eyes away. I didn't think much about it.
Thinking back on it now, Xie Yuan immediately hesitated. Even if he coveted the Black Book of Heaven, his identity at this time and Situ Wan's identity made him afraid to take it.
Seeing that Xie Yuan was about to take out the Black Sky Book again, Yunxing shook his head:
"I told you that she gave it to you. She played with it for a few days, and maybe the questions that needed to be answered were answered. It was of no use to her, so I gave it to you.
"I don't have to let you join the religion or anything. Do you still want to publicize this thing? If you want to expose a rare item of this level, trouble will keep coming. If you are so brainless, By then, your Xie family’s situation will probably be even worse... Well, that’s not bad.”
After hearing what she said, Xie Yuan nodded slowly and carefully put the Black Sky Book away.
Yunxing thought that he had never handled such treasures before, so he gave him a few words of warning.
She didn't know that Xie Yuan counted four pages of the Black Sky Book that he had come into contact with, which was nearly half of the total.
Speaking of which, the frequency is quite high.
However, Xie Yuan was not surprised at all, and the treasures were kept by those who were virtuous.
He feels that his moral character is quite good.
Yun Xing chatted with Xie Yuan for a few more words, and the words were full of teasing and ridicule, making Xie Yuan call the demon girl arrogant. The atmosphere in the Zao Cult is really unrestrained.
Xie Yuan also asked her sideways, what kind of help she needed, and what else was so rare for her, a candidate for the Saint and the four envoys of the Zao Sect?
However, Yunxing just pretended not to answer. He only said that he would know when the time comes. It would take some time, at least after the New Year.
Anyway, the New Year's Eve is just around the corner.
Xie Yuan had a suspicion in his mind that the only one who could embarrass the four envoys was another one of the four envoys.
After sending Yun Xing away and watching the hooded figure become blurry in a few steps and disappear on the road, Xie Yuan then touched the thing on his chest and hurried back to his home.
Why did you get involved with the Demon Cult?
Xie Yuan frowned slightly, not knowing how things turned out like this.
He personally killed the Fire Maker. Yunxing probably secretly applauded and thanked him. It is conceivable that the Saint didn't seem to care.
The saint actually gave such a treasure. Xie Yuan was not sure about his future mother-in-law, and he really couldn't bear to refuse.
With the Black Sky Book, which contains the art of weapons, in his possession, Xie Yuan's cultivation speed must have improved by leaps and bounds, which is exactly the help he urgently needs now.
Could it be that the mother-in-law really feels sorry for her son-in-law?
But this mother-in-law actually has a big feud with her biological father, the Xie family, or herself...
Xie Yuan sighed slightly, suddenly feeling that his identity had become more subtle.
That’s all. He shook his head. If you have many debts, you won't have to worry about them. It's useless to think too much.
Returning to the mansion, Xie Yuanping retreated from everyone, locked himself in a secret room, and then slowly took out the box and opened it.
Black Sky Book, thousands of soldiers and candle shadows.
Xie Yuan vaguely seemed to see countless candle shadows demonstrating weapon skills again. He was slightly startled before he regained consciousness.
【Black Sky Book: (3/2000)】
Just this time, two more points of progress were added.
Xie Yuan exhaled. Although he did not have the same great progress and understanding as when he first came into contact with it, he would definitely gain much more in the long run than a one-time deal.
It just so happened that practicing the Burning Heaven Dao-Destroying Spear was quite slow right now - of course he felt it himself, but compared to others, his progress had shocked Xie Fu to the point of numbness.
Xie Yuan didn't have an epiphany or breakthrough day and night, but his progress was like a wheel that never stopped, rolling forward at a stable and efficient speed.
No pass or difficulty can block his way forward. The countless pass and orifice peaks that block others will soon turn into a smooth rut behind Xie Yuan, and no other difference can be seen.
Unstoppable.
Xie Fu observed Xie Yuan for a long time, and in the end he only had this comment.
However, it still takes a lot of hard work to practice the peerless marksmanship. Xie Yuan is not impatient, but the current situation waits for no one.
Now that he is better, with Ten Thousand Soldiers Zhuying, Xie Yuan has already faintly felt that his control over the weapon has been strengthened and his understanding has deepened.
During his practice, his understanding of weapons and swordsmanship will definitely increase.
If you break the progress every once in a while, you can get a big benefit!
And it has been proven before that this is also useful for the Burning Heaven and Dao-Destroying Spear.
Perhaps, Elder Fu will blow his beard and glare again soon.
Xie Yuan held the Ten Thousand Soldiers Candle Shadow and smiled.
After receiving the love from his mother-in-law, Xie Yuan became even more immersed in spiritual practice.
However, the undercurrent of the Xie family has not been reduced.
The new year is approaching, and under the auspices of Cui Pingjun, the clan land has begun to be decorated, and the flavor of the new year is gradually getting stronger.
However, everyone knows that this year is definitely not an ordinary year.
In the owner's courtyard.
Xie Yuan, Cui Pingjun and Xie Jun, who had a calm face and seemed to be reserved and meticulous, gathered together.
Xie Jun looked at Xie Yuan and Cui Pingjun and exhaled:
“Recently, several houses have stopped submitting daily detailed statements and accounts.”
"What are they?"
Cui Pingjun asked quietly.
Xie Jun frowned slightly, raised his fingers and said:
"Shennong Hall, Longwu Academy, half of the halls of Your Excellency Xinglong... they all said that they should have reported to the head of the family, but not to me."
Xie Yuan raised his eyebrows and said:
"But no one has looked for me."
"They said you are too young and don't understand, so they don't need to bother you with martial arts practice."
Xie Jun shook his head:
"They are all veteran members of the clan. Many of them were in that position before Brother Yi or even Brother Xuan became the head of the family. They think very highly of themselves, or...heh, they think they can make the decision anyway."
Cui Pingjun said in a concentrated voice:
"This is tantamount to splitting up the family. Have you never thought about how they will explain it to Lingyun's father when he wakes up?"
Xie Jun and Xie Yuan were silent. I'm afraid many people were thinking that Xie Yi wouldn't wake up, or even if he woke up, it wouldn't be long before, so naturally they wouldn't care. But of course I couldn't talk to Cui Pingjun.
Cui Pingjun shook her head:
"That's all, as long as nothing big goes wrong, let's leave it at that. Xie Yuan, how has your practice been these days?"
Cui Pingjun has always paid no attention to Xie Yuan's cultivation progress. She seemed to feel a little pressure when she asked the question today.
Xie Yuan nodded:
"Elder Fu said that my progress is the first he has ever seen in his life."
The thin old man's original words were actually "inhuman". Xie Yuan was also deeply impressed by the way his eyes widened after he discovered that he was making faster progress.
Cui Pingjun and Xie Jun's expressions softened and they smiled:
"Since Elder Zhenwu has praised you so much, you must have really impressed him. Haha, neither your father nor your second uncle received such praise back then."
Xie Yuan actually thinks that Xie Fu likes to praise others, or rather likes to praise himself, and he doesn't seem that harsh.
"That's it. Just be clear about these things. Don't worry about the specifics. Your Seventh Uncle and I will help you deal with it. Just practice on your own."
Xie Yuan felt the pressure from the two of them, but he could only continue to practice, after all, the root cause was still with him.
The New Year's Eve is just around the corner. Xie Yuan is practicing martial arts with Xie Lingyun who runs over. The brother and sister work together to supervise each other. Suddenly it is spread:
"Master, Elder Bing of Longwuyuan invites you to go. There are important matters that require your decision."
"Elder Xie Bing?"
Xie Yuan frowned slightly.
Longwuyuan is the highest level martial arts hall in the Xie family and is a place for elite disciples to practice. For example, Xie Chun, Xie Wei and others were all students of Longwuyuan.
But Longwuyuan has also recently ignored him, one of the top departments of the family head.
Xie Bing is the elder in charge of Longwu Academy, and his personal cultivation is connected to both heaven and earth. He should have the strength of Feilongbang Grandmaster, and he also has a great status in the family.
But he has always ignored me, and now he is looking for me. Can anything good happen?
Xie Yuan pondered for a moment and then said directly:
"Tell Elder Bing that I will be there soon." After a while, he took Xie Lingyun, who was joining in the fun, and rushed to Longwuyuan together.
Entering the courtyard, which was as large as a martial arts field, Xie Yuan saw Xie Bing, who stood as tall as a javelin and had a meticulous face, quietly watching his disciples practice martial arts.
And with him personally supervising, even though many of the disciples here are the proud sons of the Xie family and the darlings of various clans, they still dare not relax at all and dare not breathe.
Seeing this, Xie Yuan nodded slightly. The Xie family's talent has never been cut off, and it is thanks to Longwuyuan's contribution.
He strolled forward, smiled at Xie Bing and said:
"Longwuyuan is full of talented people, and Elder Bing's hard work has made great achievements."
The disciples who were practicing all noticed the arrival of the new head of the family, and quietly turned their eyes away while practicing.
Seeing Xie Yuan talking like this, they all stared.
He is really the head of the family and he really comes to inspect it?
If such a young person dared to talk to Elder Bing like this, they would not dare even if they had ten thousand courages...
When Xie Bing saw Xie Yuan coming over, he glanced at him with a resolute face, then ignored him and turned to a disciple in front of him and shouted:
"What are you distracted by? Haven't you seen anyone?"
The disciple was so excited that he hurriedly practiced the martial arts wholeheartedly.
Seeing that Xie Bing seemed to be ignoring him, Xie Yuan stood up on his own without seeing anyone else:
"Elder Bing, it's rare to see me. What's the matter?"
Xie Bing looked at him this time and said slowly:
"Don't worry, wait until I finish taking care of these students."
After that, he ignored Xie Yuan.
The eyes of the disciples who were practicing martial arts were all rolling around, feeling that the news that the new head of the family could not convince the public was indeed true.
It's just that this kind of thing has always been done behind the scenes, but Xie Bing made it so obvious in front of everyone, so that young people like them could see it clearly. I'm afraid the problem is no longer simple.
I wonder what excitement will come next? Speaking of which, Xie Yuan was younger than many of them, so it would have been difficult for him to sit in this position.
While everyone was practicing, they also wanted to watch the fun.
Xie Yuan saw that Xie Bing was deliberately trying to show him off, so he smiled slightly without getting angry. If he blushes and loses his composure in front of so many people, it will only fulfill some people's wishes.
Xie Bing was not in a hurry, and neither was he. He was watching from the side.
But after a while, Xie Yuan suddenly said to a sword-practicing disciple in front:
"Your sword has a lot more force. It's obviously an attacking style, so it gives you the upper hand. You might as well try adding another minute and a half more force."
After hearing this, the young man was slightly startled and glanced at Xie Bing subconsciously.
Xie Bing narrowed his eyes and glanced at Xie Yuan, then looked at his disciple without saying anything.
Seeing this, the man hesitantly used the sword move just now again.
As a result, his sword moves were smooth and sharp this time, and it felt really different from before. His eyes lit up, and he used a complete set of sword moves, and then he shouted happily:
"I understand! Thank you... family... uh, thank you for your advice!"
He cupped his hands and put away the somewhat awkward address under Xie Bing's gaze.
Xie Yuan chuckled and waved his hand:
"You're welcome. As the head of the family, it's your duty to guide your children in practicing martial arts."
When everyone saw that he was old-fashioned and eloquent, they all had strange expressions on their faces.
How old is he? How much cultivation do you have? Do you really think of yourself as the head of the family who can give guidance to others?
But if there is a problem with what he said, there doesn't seem to be one... If there is no problem, I always feel that something is wrong.
Everyone was practicing silently. Xie Yuan walked in the field and stood not far from another disciple who was practicing guns. He looked at it for a while and shook his head:
"The spear is a formation breaker. With so many defenses, it's better to just use two shields."
When the man heard this, he was slightly dissatisfied:
"In the opinion of the head of the family, how should I use this gun?"
He placed an emphasis on the word "house master", which could be heard by the whole audience, and many people immediately pursed their lips.
Xie Yuan could see his dissatisfaction, smiled slightly, and drew out his sword:
"If you think that move just now worked well, try it and see if you can make me take a step back."
When the man heard this, his eyes flashed.
He is not an ordinary disciple, he is also an elite warrior in the Third Transformation Realm, and is in the same realm as Xie Yuan.
Seeing Xie Yuan holding a sword in one hand and holding the other behind his back, standing casually at his feet, obviously not taking him seriously, he snorted and said:
"That would offend."
"Don't hold back."
Xie Yuan gave an instruction.
The man had no intention of holding back. His eyes were cold, he raised his spear, and after a moment of luck, the spear danced with pear blossoms and stabbed Xie Yuan violently.
The tip of the gun was invisible, and no one else could see where it was, so they couldn't help but exclaim:
“Brother Jun’s marksmanship has improved again!”
"Yeah, it's obviously so powerful, but I didn't know...well."
As soon as they screamed in surprise, they saw Xie Yuan raise his long sword and pull out the invisible gun head directly from the gun shadow in front of him.
Xie Jun's spear suddenly tilted and he staggered, almost losing his balance.
The audience's admiration for Xie Jun stopped abruptly.
There was some disbelief in Xie Jun's eyes. He looked at the weak sword in Xie Yuan's hand, then looked at his own gun, and gritted his teeth:
"Come again!"
"Okay!"
Dang——
In the same way, Xie Jun staggered again.
"Come again!"
"Okay."
"It doesn't count this time."
"No problem."
"..."
"I just didn't use my strength."
"Yeah."
Several times in a row, Xie Jun gradually became more ruthless and even used all his strength.
However, Xie Yuan just stood there nonchalantly, with one hand behind his back and a sword in the other, blocking them casually, blocking all Xie Jun's guns without any effort.
The disciples who were watching had their mouths wide open. They heard that the head of the family had just entered the Third Transformation Realm not long ago, right?
How can it be possible to fight against people of the same realm, or use swords against guns, as easily and freely as an adult beating a child, or a master giving guidance to the younger generation?
Are they really in the same realm? Even Xie Wei and Xie Chun would not be able to take Xie Jun's swift and fierce spear moves so casually!
He is better than Xie Chun and is extremely powerful. But what he is showing now is not a matter of strength, it seems that he is not in the same realm at all.
Xie Yuan saw that Xie Jun's eyes were red and he was beginning to doubt himself, so he stopped continuing. Instead, when he drew his gun again, he shouted:
"The spear breaks the formation and moves forward indomitably, this is how it should be used!"
Xie Yuan's long sword suddenly changed its position of exerting force, and suddenly thrust forward, like a long dragon breaking through the formation!
With a ding sound, the spear and sword faced each other. Xie Jun couldn't hold the spear and let go.
The spear flew backwards and fell to the ground. Xie Jun looked at Xie Yuan's sword, his face trembled and his hands shook slightly.
He could feel that Xie Yuan didn't use much force, but the force of that sword, no, that spear, made him unable to resist it at all.
"Do you understand?"
Xie Yuan asked with a smile.
Xie Jun came back to his senses, recalling the difference between the two men's guns, and his expression suddenly changed.
He cupped his hand vigorously:
"Thank you for your advice."
Xie Yuan waved his hand, glanced around, and said with a smile:
"Keep practicing, watch what I do? Until you finish practicing, I have to wait for Elder Bing."
The disciples who were watching silently came to their senses and continued practicing in complicated moods.
Xie Yuan wandered among his disciples, giving advice on this and commenting on that from time to time. Those who had been commented on by him felt that they had benefited a lot. They were surprised and happy at the same time, no less than being tutored by a teacher alone.
Soon, everyone discovered that this little family leader seemed to have a knack for giving guidance to others? They did not dare to look down upon him, but instead looked forward to Xie Yuan coming to their side.
Xie Yuan looked at the fact that ninety-nine percent of the Xie family's disciples were using swords and spears. With his attainments in swordsmanship and his proficiency in the Burning Heaven-Destroying Dao Spear, not to mention these disciples who had just reached the Third Transformation Realm at most, Xie Yuan was Wei and others, he can also explain something to them.
Xie Bing kept watching from behind, his eyes narrowed and his inner thoughts revealed.
"Free practice."
He suddenly shouted, and then stopped giving instructions from the sidelines. He looked at Xie Yuan who was walking over, looked him up and down, and said lightly:
"Do you think you have practiced well?"
"I think it's average, but Elder Fu said it's okay. He also said that my age and my progress are the only ones he has seen in his life."
Xie Yuan said with a smile.
Xie Bing fell silent immediately.
The status of Zhenwu Elder has always been second only to the clan leader. But now that Xie Yi is sleeping, Xie Yuan cannot convince the crowd. Xie Fu is not only the person with the highest seniority and status in the family, but also the person with the strongest martial arts cultivation. Whenever he spoke, no one dared to do anything wrong.
Xie Bing moved his eyes and stopped talking about this topic, but instead called three people over.
Xie Yuan didn't have much impression when he saw these three people. He was a little curious as to why Xie Bing asked them to come, so he heard him say:
"These three people were sent by the Yao family in Jinling to practice martial arts. They were supposed to be taught by Xie Yi. Now Xie Yi can't teach them, and the progress is delayed. The new year is approaching, and they should go back to Jinling again. What do you think we should do?"
< br>
Xie Yuan looked at the three children of the Yao family and then remembered the origins of these three people.
When Xie Yi took him out of the Yao family, he promised to personally teach three Yao children to practice kung fu for three years to make up for the loss he caused by killing Yao Tianchuan.
It seems that these three people are international students.
Xie Yuan frowned slightly, glanced at the three of them, and said lightly:
"You want to practice martial arts with my second uncle?"
"Hey, this, it's not...it is."
When the three of them saw Xie Yuan's unfriendly eyes, their backs tensed up slightly.
Xie Yuan's gaze seemed to bring a sense of oppression to the young man of the Yao family.
In particular, Yao Tianchuan was tortured to death silently by him, and he had stayed in the Yao family for so long. Everyone in the Yao family was filled with hatred. They often made harsh words in private and insisted on eating his flesh and blood when they met. .
However, when they actually met, they felt Xie Yuan's undisguised evil spirit, thought of his reputation, strength and performance, and thought of his hostility and destruction to the Yao family, and the three of them were a little frightened.
Although they were disappointed that Xie Yi could not teach them, they were not dissatisfied because they could practice martial arts in Longwu Academy and the expenses were sufficient.
I told Xie Bing, but it was actually just to get better conditions and to ask him to teach me more personally.
In the end, I didn't know what Xie Bing was thinking, so he called Xie Yuan over directly. The three of them immediately regretted it.
He is now the head of the Xie family. If he really wants to do anything to the three of them, what can he do...
Seeing that the three of them looked a little nervous, Xie Yuan said calmly:
"Second uncle is ill and can't teach you for the time being. If you still insist on his teaching——"
His voice was long and he said slowly:
"Then only I will teach you."
"Eh? No, no, no."
The leader waved his hands.
"It's okay. Anyway, you just want to be the apprentice of the head of the Xie family. You don't care who the head of the family is. Do you?"
"No..."
"Come on. They are all swordsmen, right?"
Xie Yuan smiled:
"Draw your sword, hurry up."
The three people's faces turned pale, and they drew their swords very awkwardly.
The most dazzling swordsman genius of the same generation in the family, Yao Tianchuan, is the soul of Xie Yuan's sword. What can they do? They are also desperate.
Xie Bing frowned as he saw the three men holding the sword hesitantly. These three people were so out of place, and they were so scared to see Xie Yuan.
He didn't expect that Xie Yuan's name would really cast a shadow on the children of the Yao family. He just shook his head for a moment, feeling that there was indeed a reason for the decline of the Yao family.
But it doesn't matter, these three people themselves cannot cause trouble to Xie Yuan. If Xie Yuan punishes them with personal grudges, they can also be involved in the disgrace of the family leader.
However, Xie Yuan's performance exceeded the four people's expectations.
He waited for the three of them to draw their swords. He didn't mean to teach them a lesson, but he actually taught them swordsmanship in a serious manner.
He really knows a thing or two about the Yao family's swordsmanship, and even has a high level of attainment in the Autumn Wind Fallen Leaf Sword of the Qiufeng Tower. However, he is even more accomplished in the Yao family's swordsmanship, and he can teach them as much as he can.
Of course, there is no need for other sword skills. It is no problem to help them improve the Yao family's sword skills and teach them some sword principles.
The three of them stared blankly at Xie Yuan's demonstration, and then gradually their eyes brightened and they became attentive.
They are not extremely highly cultivated, but they are young talents with high understanding specially selected by the Yao family. As soon as they saw Xie Yuan's demonstration and explanation, they knew that they were extraordinary.
After Xie Yuan demonstrated, he let them practice again, and then improved them one by one, just like a master leading an apprentice.
After practicing two sets of swordsmanship, all three of them had gained something, Xie Yuan asked again:
"You practice Little Jinhe Gong? Big Jinhe Gong? If you have any questions, I can answer them for you."
The international students from the Yao family suddenly had a confused look on their faces. Even if the Dajinhe Kung Fu came out, they still need someone from the Xie family to teach them?
But based on the current situation of the Yao family, Xie Yuan's ninth-level Dajinhe Kung Fu is actually ranked upstream.
The three of them had mixed emotions, and then they rushed to ask for advice.
Xie Bing left early to avoid suspicion. Xie Yuan talked to them about internal strength for about half an hour, then looked at the skylight and said:
"Before you return to Jinling, I will teach you swordsmanship for half an hour and internal strength for half an hour every day. When you come back after the New Year, it will be the same."
Leaving aside the swordsmanship, Xie Yi couldn't teach them the gains in Dajinhe Kung Fu. The three of them looked at each other and felt that they had a lot to digest today. Xie Yuan really did not neglect them.
With complicated looks in their eyes, the three of them bowed:
"Thank you, Master."
After sending the three of them away, Xie Yuan was about to leave when Xie Bing suddenly appeared again.
He stood in front of Xie Yuan, his tall and straight body like a javelin was quite oppressive, and his resolute face had deep eyes, staring at Xie Yuan.
"I thought you wouldn't want to see the Yao family."
"What you don't want to see is what you don't want to see."
Xie Yuan shook his head and said calmly:
"But the second uncle made a promise to the Yao family. If he cannot fulfill it, as the successor head of the family and as a nephew, he will naturally have to fulfill it on his behalf and cannot make him or the Xie family break their promise."
Xie Bing looked him over and said slowly:
"But you don't have to teach them everything. After all, they are members of the Yao family. If you want to say who the Yao family hates the most..."
He looked at Xie Yuan, and there was no need to elaborate on what he meant.
Xie Yuan smiled and said calmly:
"What if I teach them swordsmanship and internal strength?
"I have never looked back at the person behind me."
He looked at Xie Bing and smiled:
"I only look at the way forward."
Looking at Xie Yuan's leaving figure, Xie Bing chewed his words slowly, his eyes twinkling.
The new year has come, and the snow is falling in Chen County.
The Xie family's land was decorated with lanterns and colorful decorations, and children wearing new clothes were running wildly in the snow, making it a lively scene.
At noon on New Year's Eve, it is customary for the head of the family to host a family reunion dinner for all the elders, sum up the family's harvest in the past year, and look forward to the new year.
Xie Yuan took office as a new official, so he had to hold this banquet. He doesn't need to worry, Cui Pingjun has taken care of all these things for him.
However, the banquet hosted by Xie Yuan as the head of the family was a bit deserted.
More than half of the seats for nearly twenty people were empty!
Xie Jun sat near Xie Yuan, who was sitting at the top, frowning a little:
"It's a bit ugly..."
Xie Yuan smiled, it was all expected. The elders' meeting when he took office was destined to be the one with the most people coming, and there might be others coming later.
"It's okay, there are fewer people and we eat more vegetables."
Xie Yuan said half-jokingly, but this joke did not resonate with the Xie family elders.
Cui Pingjun shook his head:
"Let Lingyun come. Why can't she be on the table? She said she wanted to become a master early and have lunch."
"I told her to come directly."
Xie Yuan smiled.
While he was talking, a servant suddenly came in with an old man dressed as a Taoist priest with white eyebrows and white hair, and said:
"Elder Yu is here!"
When Cui Pingjun and Xie Jun saw each other, they immediately showed joy.
Xie Yu is the oldest elder of the Xie family. He has traveled and studied for decades and returned to the family in his later years. He doesn't like liveliness and sometimes doesn't get involved in family affairs. For example, at this group's annual banquet, many people were absent and few came in the past few years. Xie Yuan and the others did not expect that he would come.
Xie Yuan quickly stood up to greet him and bowed to the ground respectfully:
"I've met Elder Yu!"
"Haha, the little master is so polite."
Xie Yu also bowed his head. He had a kind face and kind eyes, and was quite easy-going.
Cui Pingjun quickly helped Xie Yu to sit down. Before he could sit down, someone else announced:
"Elder Lei is here!"
"Xie Qian, the steward, has arrived on behalf of Elder Zhenwu!"
A rough man and a middle-aged man arrived together.
The former Xie Lei does not hold any position, but he is a famous martial arts idiot in the Xie family. His cultivation level is extremely high, he has connected the two bridges between heaven and earth, and is on the Flying Dragon List.
The latter, Xie Qian, was Xie Fu's son. Since Xie Fu couldn't come forward, Xie Qian came in his place.
Xie Leilong walked in at a leisurely pace, glanced at the banquet hall, and said hey:
"I don't even like to eat, so I'll eat! If you don't eat every day, you'll be a fool. No wonder you can't even practice martial arts!"
Just as Xie Yuan was about to go up to greet him, he received a slap from Xie Lei and a heavy pat on the shoulder:
"Well, it's quite strong. Just say hello and you won't have to."
He sat next to Xie Yu and went to say hello to Xie Yu.
Xie Qian had an easy-going face and was very friendly to Xie Yuan. He naturally knew that his father valued the young family head very much, so he said gently:
"My father sent me here specially to say that it was a pity that he could not attend the first New Year's banquet of the head of the family."
"You're welcome, Elder Fu. I'll take the food box to the arsenal later."
Warmth surged through Xie Yuan's heart.
Xie Qian smiled slightly:
"Father also said that you should go practice martial arts early and don't waste time."
Several unexpected elders arrived, and the banquet hall became less empty.
Seeing that it was almost time, Xie Yuan was about to announce the start when he suddenly heard his servant raise his voice:
"Elder Xie Bing of Longwu Academy has arrived!" (End of Chapter)
