My sister is the daughter of destiny

As the promotion round of the Tianjiao Festival came to an end, the Tianjiao who successfully advanced received gifts from the emperors and began to retreat together.

But the bustle of the Tianlan Realm did not end with the retreat of many geniuses.

More geniuses who were eliminated in the promotion round will not be willing to be left behind, and they will set their sights on the Tianxu battlefield and the Tianlan treasure house.

Those who go to the Demon-Slaying Tower will compete for rankings and obtain treasures from the Tianlan Treasury by killing the alien races in the tower.

Then they can join the army, fight against foreign races, and exchange their military exploits for resources from the Tianlan Treasury, so as not to fall behind others.

Lu Ningfeng and Xiaoxue naturally also needed to go into seclusion. They had already reached the great perfection of the Creation Realm for more than a few months. They had tried to break through before the promotion round, but their accumulation at that time was still a little lacking.

And now, after going through five rounds of trials and tribulations, fighting continuously with geniuses of their generation, and receiving gifts from the emperors, they need some time to digest what they have gained.

Ningdao Palace, a place for retreat.

Lu Ningfeng and Lu Ningxue sat cross-legged facing each other, with their palms facing each other and pressed tightly together.

In the entire secret room, half was burning with raging flames, while the other half was a scene of ice and snow.

Flame and ice, two elements that should be in conflict with each other, actually get along very harmoniously here.

With Lu Ningfeng and his partner's hands pressed together as the boundary, the ice and snow that crossed the boundary turned into flames without delay, and the fire shadows that splashed across the boundary turned into frost spots.

The spiritual power and soul of Lu Ningfeng and the other person blended with each other. In the soul space, they faced the Avenue of Ice and Fire and comprehended the Avenue.

At a certain moment, the fire in the secret room gradually died down, and the ice and snow gradually melted away, leaving only the remains of spirit stones and many miscellaneous fragments of materials on the ground.

Lu Ningfeng slowly finished his training, his eyes opened and closed, and a sharp light flashed faintly.

When this sharpness touches the person on the other side, it turns into gentleness like water.

"It's done."

Lu Ningfeng smiled slightly.

Xiaoxue opened her eyes and smiled.

Their accumulation is enough and they can enter the Daoyuan realm at any time, and Lu Ningfeng has made a new breakthrough.

After visiting the human race's inheritance monument, he was able to comprehend the true meaning of Tai Chi. Based on this, he reorganized his understanding of the Dao of Formation and eventually succeeded in becoming a ninth-grade formation master.

The spiritual stones and various material debris all over the floor of this secret room came from here. He successfully set up a ninth-grade spirit gathering formation.

In Ningdao Palace, after Lu Ningfeng finished reading the family affairs handling reports that had accumulated during his retreat and the intelligence submitted by his sixth son, he finally had some free time and began to enjoy the afternoon tea prepared by Xiaoxue.

"What are you laughing at? You are so happy?"

Xiaoxue sat aside, looking at him with a smile on his face, showing off the pastries one bite at a time, and asked curiously.

"Xiaoxue, didn't you read the group message?" Lu Ningfeng took a soft little cake, broke off a small half, and handed it to Xiaoxue's mouth.

Xiaoxue opened her little mouth and ate the cake, then shook her head slightly, "I took a look and saw that it was all that idiot Xueqiu looking for me in the group, so I didn't look closely."

Lu Ningfeng laughed. Xueqiu would ask in the group every day: Xiaoxue, come out and chat. Xiaoxue, can you talk? And so on.

After all, this guy doesn't need to retreat and has a lot of free time.

The gifts from the emperors of the human race are of no use to a special life like it. It only needs to practice with the great emperor of all races, and it will never fall behind others.

This retreat lasted nearly a month, and some interesting things happened during this period.

When Lu Ningfeng and the others just started their retreat, Yang Kai planned to send Mu Wanlin back to Shengdan City before starting his retreat again.

But there were some unexpected events.

They were chased and almost captured alive.

The person who took action was Situ Chong, the master of a major holy place in the area, the Star Palace.

Situ Chong brought a group of Daoyuan realm guards and intercepted them halfway between Dikun City and Shengdan City.

They concealed their identities and launched a surprise attack, trapping Yang Kai and his companions inside and sealing off their cultivation.

Situ Chong was confident of victory and planned to go forward to humiliate Yang Kai and then kill him with his own hands.

However, he underestimated Yang Kai. Yang Kai actually broke through the ban and recovered his cultivation. He launched a surprise attack with all his strength. As they were both in the early stage of Creation Realm, Situ Chong was seriously injured by him and was held hostage.

However, there were too many Dao Yuan Realm guards around, so he didn't dare to kill Situ Chong easily. It was impossible for the other party to be stupid enough to let Yang Kai and the others take Situ Chong away.

Yang Kai planned to inform Medicine Saint through Baichiyin, but he was worried that the other party would be in a desperate situation. He might not be able to escape from the siege of so many Daoyuan realm masters, let alone Mu Wanlin who was only in Nirvana realm.

Situ Chong's guards did not dare to gamble, because Situ Chong's life was still in Yang Kai's hands. If Situ Chong died, they would have no need to live.

The situation came to a stalemate.

However, although he could not notify Medicine Saint through Baichiyin, Yang Kai could ask for help in the group through Baichiyu. He only needed to move his mind slightly and the Baichiyu in his pocket could send the message.

Kai: Is Senior Sister Su here? I have something urgent to ask of you.

It seemed like after waiting for a while, there was no reply from Xiaoxue, and someone else reminded her.

Wen Ziqi: They should have started their retreat. They returned to their tribe yesterday.

Yan: What happened?

Xiao Yan'er felt that since Brother Feng and Sister Xiaoxue were not around, and she had such a good relationship with them, she should take up the banner of the group and care about the situation of her group members.

Kai: Wan Lin and I were ambushed by people from Xingchen Palace. I held their young master Situ Chong hostage. Can anyone help me pick up Wan Lin? Thank you very much.

Yang Kai's move was obviously to use his trump card to send Mu Wanlin away first, so that he could deal with the people from the Star Palace alone without any worries.

However, his trump card obviously has many limitations, either distance limitation or strength limitation. In short, he needs someone to help pick up Mu Wanlin before he can feel at ease.

The group fell silent for a few moments.

Just when Yang Kai was feeling somewhat disappointed and his consciousness was about to leave Baichi Yu to think of another way, another person emerged from the group.

Ye Tianchen: Who? Situ Chong?

Ye Tianchen: Give me a seat, I'll be there soon

Ye Tianchen: You stabilize them first

Obviously, Yang Kai was a little surprised by the enthusiasm shown by Ye Tianchen. He was stunned for a moment and then quickly replied to the message.

Kai: Region, sunken valley

Ye Tianchen: I am familiar with this place

Ye Tianchen: I will teleport to the area immediately. You try your best to negotiate with the other party and give me one hour.

There was no time to think about why Ye Tianchen, a native of Tianyu, was so familiar with the area. Yang Kai communicated with Ye Tianchen in the group about how to pick up Mu Wanlin.

However, Ye Tianchen's enthusiasm is naturally not just as simple as wanting to help Yang Kai, a member of the discussion group.

Situ Chong, this is the only son of his old enemy.

Last time, I couldn't kill the enemy on the battlefield, so I could only fight to vent my anger.

This time it's different.

Maybe we can kill Situ Chong and make that guy in the Xingchen Palace sad for a while.

They also roughly discussed the results in the group.

After meeting Mu Wanlin, Ye Tianchen led the elite troops he had secretly trained, hid himself, and launched a sneak attack on the Star Palace guards who were besieging Yang Kai.

The battle was won and all of Situ Chong's guards were killed. Unfortunately, when they wanted to kill Situ Chong, they triggered the secret hand that Situ Lan left in Situ Chong's body, which protected him.

Ye Tianchen and Yang Kai naturally had no choice but to flee from this place, quickly head to Dikun City, and teleport to another area.

Being chased by an angry Saint Realm expert is not a fun thing.

After that, the Xingchen Palace issued a notice to the entire Tianlan Realm, saying that Yang Kai and Mu Wanlin from Shengdan City, together with bandits, had ambushed the Young Palace Master of the Xingchen Palace, causing him to be seriously injured and almost killed. They hoped that the Shengdan City Alchemist Association would give an explanation.

This is the case of the bad guy filing a complaint first.

But the move by the Star Palace was quite wise. After Situ Chong attacked Yang Kai and others and exposed his identity, the relationship between the Star Palace and the Medicine Saint was directly broken, and there was no hostility between them.

Later, Shengdan City also issued a notice saying that the facts were just the opposite and that it was Situ Chong who led his men to launch a surprise attack on Yang Kai and his men.

In this way, both sides stick to their own opinions and no one can provide any actual evidence.

Even when the Star Palace was deliberately playing the victim, most people were willing to believe in it.

After all, Situ Chong was really seriously injured.

As for Yang Kai, he only had some minor skin injuries and recovered on the same day.

Of course, the matter would not just end there. The Medicine Saint was furious and ordered his faction in the Alchemist Association to terminate its dealings with the Star Palace.

As the grand elder of the Alchemist Association, he can influence so many people.

Almost no alchemist dared to offend the Medicine Saint at this critical juncture.

The two sides became hostile.

This is also expected.

"Such a thing actually happened..."

Xiaoxue was a little shy and stuck out her tongue.

She paid no attention to this nominal junior fellow apprentice at all.

Fortunately, the first thing Yang Kai thought of was to ask her for help.
