Chapter 20 Xuan Ming Fire Bead
The atmosphere at the City Lord's Mansion dinner became solid again. This time it was not the aunt who made people unable to get off the stage, but the City Lord's words that aroused everyone's curiosity.
Shui Yingrou asked worriedly: "Cousin, what did Ruan Ying do? It's actually related to Elder Duan's daughter, who is his heart and soul." Ruan Ying defended herself, "I'm not On purpose, I didn’t know that the fire bead was so important to Elder Duan.”
Auntie coughed and stopped Ruan Ying from speaking, “There are many people here, and then we will be together with my family, and I will ask you again. "Explain, let's eat first."
Tang Wenhua said: "That's right. I originally wanted to talk about this matter tomorrow. I should entertain my cousin tonight." The implication was that he didn't want to. At this time, he mentioned this embarrassing thing to Shui Peishan, but she always said some unpleasant things, so he brought it up.
So everyone finished their meal in a hurry. Everyone had this matter in mind and wanted to find out more about it, but they had no intention of tasting the dinner carefully prepared by the City Lord's Mansion.
In the evening, Shui Yingrou invited her cousin to her small flower hall to discuss things. Tang Yue and her cousin Ruan Ying were also listening. Shui Yingrou was helpless after listening to Shui Peishan's explanation. She remembered that Tang Yue in the past was just like Ruan Ying, but fortunately Tang Yue was no longer like this.
As for the enmity with the people in Zixiao Mansion and the kidnapping of the famous disciples of Kunwu City, she considered it as a last resort. Those people deserved what they deserved, and she couldn't blame Tang Yue.
Tang Yue was speechless after hearing this. Isn’t this just looking for trouble? Elder Duan's beloved daughter was born with a congenital defect that was even more serious than hers. She had to rely on Elder Duan's spiritual energy to carry her since she was born, otherwise she would not survive at all.
Elder Duan loved his deceased wife deeply. His wife suffered an accident during pregnancy and did not survive. He could only give birth to a baby girl who could only breathe and passed away.
Therefore, Elder Duan tried his best to leave the only crystallization of his love with his deceased wife in the world.
After forcibly keeping the child for more than 20 years, five years ago Elder Duan found a formation that could allow his daughter Duan Yitang to regain a normal body, called the Rejuvenation Formation.
It can help Duan Yitang reshape her body so that she will be consistent with a normal monk from now on. Not only will she have a strong body, she will also be able to practice and embark on the path to immortality.
Elder Duan has been looking for formation materials for many years, and now he only needs one Xuanming Fire Bead to complete the entire formation.
Elder Duan found the Xuan Ming Fire Bead, but this fire bead was not mature. It was considered half a fire bead and could not meet the requirements of the formation. Therefore, it had been refined by Elder Duan with fine fire and was almost mature. .
Ruan Ying must have been framed. She heard from her people that Elder Duan had this fire bead, and was encouraged by someone who wanted to steal the bead and give it to her sweetheart.
The senior brother she admires has the Fire Spirit Root. With the Xuanming Fire Bead, she can refine the Life Fire, which greatly improves her cultivation. The Life Fire can also be used to refine elixirs and weapons. The Wuji Mountain monks practice a lot of alchemy, and they have to refine their own life fire before they can continue to practice the Tao.
In order to please her senior brother, she went to steal the treasure without finding out what Elder Duan was doing with the Xuanming Fire Pearl. She accidentally destroyed the bead refining circle, causing the essence fire to overflow and destroy the beads.
When Elder Duan hurried over, the entire bead had burned away and turned into part of the essence fire.
Elder Duan was so angry that he wanted to throw Ruan Ying into the essence fire to pay for his daughter's life. pellets.
The major trading houses accepted Elder Duan's request to purchase the Xuanming Fire Bead at a high price. They sent many monks to search for it, but none of them found it. Only Xuanwu Town might have such a fire bead.
Shui Peishan could not let her daughter die in the hands of Elder Duan like this. She also relied on her connections to intercede, but Elder Duan had one attitude, either Ruan Ying would pay for her life or a whole heart. of fire beads.
She also tried to find the Fire Bead, but she couldn't find it in the entire Liuzhou Continent. She had no choice but to hide in Shui Yingrou, "Cousin, you must save Ruan Ying, she is Your niece, only you can save her this time."
Shui Yingrou said helplessly: "Cousin, Elder Duan is so powerful that I can't stop him. Besides, Ruan Ying is indeed at fault this time. First, Kunwu City has no reason to protect you, and I have no choice."
Shui Peishan said: "Cousin, you are the only one who can help me with this matter. I need my niece Tang Yue's help. I'll take a trip."
Tang Yue heard that there was something of his own here, and asked curiously: "Aunt, how can I help you and my cousin? I only have the fifth level of Qi Refining now, so I can't do it at all. Leaving Kunwu City alone."
Shui Yingrou also nodded, indicating that Tang Yue was indeed of low cultivation and could not help much.
Shui Peishan said hurriedly: "Only Tang Yue can enter the secret realm of Xuanwu Town. This is the only place where it is possible to find the Xuanming Fire Bead." The aunt explained that Xuanwu Town wanted to protect the remnant soul of the ancestor Xuanwu Beast. Xuanwu descendants, who are very rare in the secret realm, do not welcome too many monks to their secret realm.
It’s just that we can’t completely prevent the monks from entering, otherwise other monks will be anxious and attack Xuanwu Town directly on the excuse that they do not share the spirit and are unwilling to jointly build Liuzhou Continent. Take the secret realm.
So the people of Xuanwu Town made a rule that only disciples from famous families are allowed to practice. They can bring an elder with a high level of cultivation to enter at the same time to protect the younger ones. The Xuanwu Secret Realm is still relatively dangerous.
This will benefit the big sects and big families, and famous people will not call on people to attack Xuanwu Town.
Ruan Ying is not the child of the head of the Ruan family, and her status is not enough to experience in the secret realm, while Tang Yue is the legitimate daughter of the city lord, and her status is enough to meet the requirements of Xuanwu Town. Therefore, Shui Peishan came to beg Shui Yingrou. I hope she can agree to let Tang Yue get the beads for her.
"Cousin, I asked the Ruan family's Huashen elder to protect Tang Yue and enter the Xuanwu secret realm with her. I will never let anything happen to her. I hope you can let Tang Yue go and save Ruan Ying's life. ." Shui Peishan looked pleading, which was completely opposite to the acrimonious look she had when she got out of the car.
Shui Yingrou pondered for a while, she really couldn’t just watch her niece lose her life. The strength of the many monsters and beasts in the Xuanwu Secret Realm is equivalent to the distraction stage. The monks in the Nascent Soul stage should not be protected by the god-transforming monks. Something would go wrong. She looked at Tang Yue, wondering if she had the guts to make this trip. If she didn't want to, forget it.
Tang Yue knew what Shui Yingrou meant. She thought about it and the problem was not big. This trip was regarded as a long-term experience. How could a monk be afraid of hardships and not take some risks in practice?
“Aunt, I can go to Xuanwu Town, but let’s agree first. So many monks have gone to look for the Xuanming Fire Bead, but they haven’t found it. There is a high possibility that I can’t find it either. I hope to go there. Don't blame me."
Tang Yue added this sentence considering her aunt's character. She didn't want to contribute and suffer complaints afterwards.
Shui Peishan said hurriedly: "How can aunt blame you? This time, an uncle from the Ruan family went in to look for it. You just need to bring him in. If you really can't find it, then that's okay. It's Ying'er's life." As she said that, Aunt Shui pulled Ruan Ying over, both of them looking sad.
Ruan Ying said to Tang Yue: "Cousin, thank you very much for agreeing to go to Xuanwu Town and save my life."
Mrs. Shui and Tang Yue couldn't accept it. In their impression, Shui Peishan and Ruan Ying had never been so humble.
On the second day, Shui Yingrou informed Tang Wenhua that Tang Yue was going to Xuanwu Town. Tang Wenhua agreed. This was considered a good way to sell Elder Duan, and he also explained the brother-in-law relationship of the Ruan family. Chengdu's success or failure will be good for Kunwu City.
He also didn’t expect that Tang Yue, who had always been pampered and willful, would take risks for his cousin, but he never saw that she was so close to his own sister. In short, Tang Wenhua can think of a thousand bad things about Tang Yue, and he can explain away some of the good things by himself.
The elder Ruan Sang sent by the Ruan family this time has cultivated in the divine transformation stage and has some status in the family. The head of the Ruan family couldn't bear the loss of his niece Ruan Ying. In addition, he had to answer to Elder Duan, so he sent Ruan Sang to help Shui Peishan.
Tang Yue went to visit Ruan Sang. He did not come to Kunwu City with Shui Peishan yesterday. He arrived this morning. He thought he wanted Shui Peishan and Shui Yingrou to make an agreement first, and then come back after they agree. .
Ruan Sang and Tang Yue talked about some things to prepare. After the two organized, they set off. Shui Yingrou gave Tang Yue a storage bracelet directly this time, with a space equivalent to dozens of storage bracelets. The bag contains many magic weapons and items.
Not only that, she dressed Tang Yue in magic weapons and spiritual treasures. Fortunately, these magic weapons have their own concealment functions and look like ordinary clothes and jewelry. Otherwise, the biggest risk for her to go out would not be Xuanwu The ferocious beast in the town was robbed.
Tang Yue and Elder Ruan went there by flying boat together. Elder Ruan was very kind to her, not only because of her identity, but also because she was taking a risk for her junior this time, so he owed her a favor.
Elder Ruan talked about some situations in the secret realm, which were summarized by people who have entered the secret realm.
“Xuanming Fire Beads usually appear in Xuanwu Beast Tombs. They will be disguised as ordinary Hellfire, but the color is redder. However, if unfortunately touched, the whole person will be burned instantly, so you still need to be careful.”< br>
Elder Ruan said again: "Except for the fire bead that Elder Duan found, we haven't heard any news about the Xuanming Fire Bead for a hundred years. I wonder if we can find it during this trip. It can be regarded as satisfying Peishan's motherhood." "
Elder Ruan is so unsure about this search for the Fire Bead. It seems that the Fire Bead is indeed a rare treasure. However, Tang Yue forgot that in the first half of the year, she had found "treasures of heaven, materials and earth that were rare to see in a century."
