I've Led the Villain Astray, How Do I Fix It?
Chapter 148
"It was only later that we found out that the two sides of the fight were the Xu family and the Yuan family. It was said that it was because of something... er, what mine? Anyway, as a woman, I can't tell. In short, it was the Xu family and the Yuan family who fought. , Mo Xincheng is not peaceful. And looking at the situation, the Xu family seems to be not doing well. I heard that the head of the Xu family has been injured. Tsk tsk, it’s so pitiful. The Xu family is so good, why can’t they beat those What about outsiders!" The aunt's tone was still a little angry.
"Thank you, Mom, we know."
"Well, since you are passing by, you should hurry up. It seems that the sky is going to change these two days. Since the two sides fought a big fight three days ago, the Yuan family has become more and more arrogant. I think the Xu family Seems like you're going to be unlucky, you monks passing by, don't get caught by that Yuan family."
"Catch strong men?" Xu Ziyan's eyes flashed: "Ma'am, what's the matter with arresting strong men?"
The aunt carefully looked around and lowered her voice: "My son saw this with his own eyes. Some monks who passed by were captured by the people of the Yuan family. Later, I don't know what benefits they gave. , just look at those monks helping them to fight the Xu family. Otherwise, the Xu family would not have lost so quickly. You better be careful, this monk will die at any time when he fights, and he was killed for no reason. Forced to fight for life and death with others, no one will be happy when it's their turn. I advise you, it's better to leave as soon as possible."
"Auntie, thank you for your reminder, we will definitely be careful." Xu Ziyan comforted the aunt with a smile, and then gave her another low-grade spirit stone.
The aunt smiled happily and took the two spirit stones away.These are two spirit stones. If they were exchanged for silver, they would be enough for their family to live for two years!Got it just by answering a few questions, what a bargain!
"Brother Ziyan..." As soon as Jiang Ying said that, he felt the chill on his back.This title was decided by Xu Ziyan, he didn't want Jiang Ying to call him 'master's brother'.However, Xu Zirong didn't seem to like this title very much, but under Xu Ziyan's high pressure, he could only recognize it by rubbing his nose, and then turned his head like Jiang Ying exerting pressure...
Jiang Ying analyzed the pros and cons, and decisively decided to use this title.Being hated by the master, although it is bad, but if you offend Xu Ziyan, you will suffer double hatred, and the master will hold the hatred even deeper...
_(:з"∠)_, Emma is not easy to be a younger brother these days, both left and right are wrong, it is really difficult to mix.
Jiang Ying's reaction caught Xu Ziyan's eyes, and he immediately cast a threatening look at Xu Zirong.
Xu Zirong: ...
"Azusa Yan, shall we go back to your house now?"
"Let's not go back now. Now the enemy is in the clear and I am in the dark. Let's take a look first before we talk. Zirong and I will go back quietly from the back mountain at night."
"Okay, then shall we go to the hotel now?"
Xu Ziyan thought for a while: "Forget it. From the tone of that aunt, this Yuan family is about to fight our family. At this time, once the monk progresses, it will definitely attract the attention of the two families." After finishing speaking, he read Look at Zirong.
Xu Zirong shook his head: "No one is staring at us. Maybe the two sides are evenly matched now, so no one dares to come out alone for fear of being attacked. But if we live in an inn, it will be difficult to hide."
"Since this is the case...then we'd better go out of the city first, find a quiet place to wait, and go home at night to have a look."
"it is good."
After discussing it, everyone went back along the way they came from.When passing by the city gate, Xu Zirong frowned slightly, flicked his fingertips, and shot a drop of blood at a skylark in mid-air, and the skylark fell in response to the sound. In a large courtyard in the east of the city, a middle-aged man groaned , spit out a mouthful of blood.
"What's going on?" The matter of the middle-aged man's injury was quickly reported to the head of the Yuan family. An old man with silver hair rushed over and asked the middle-aged man.
"Elder Qi, today I sent a skylark out to patrol the city. I didn't expect to see a few strange monks at the gate of the city. Those people's cultivation base is not low, and one of them quickly discovered me. Skylark was killed." The middle-aged man said respectfully.
"Huh? Strange monk? Could it be that he came to help the Xu family?" The old man's eyes flashed, and there was a sternness in his eyes.
"I don't know. My Skylark only saw that there were about four of them. They couldn't tell from their cultivation, but they were heading out of the city. They might have heard about what happened here, so they wanted to avoid it."
"Huh, no matter whether you are passing by or not, since you are here in Mo Xincheng, if you don't come to my Yuan family as a guest, wouldn't you be looking down on my Yuan family!" Those guests please come back."
The middle-aged man looked at the old man hesitantly, and finally sighed silently and said nothing.He didn't agree with the old man's forcible arrest of monks, but in the Yuan family, he was just a priest, and there was no comparison with the elders of the Yuan family's own clan.
The middle-aged man watched silently as a burly man brought four monks at the pulse condensing stage to take orders from the old man. Most of the people who haunted Moxin City were casual cultivators below Foundation Establishment. He was already very proficient in this kind of thing, but he still maintained his vigilance, even leading four monks in the pulse condensing stage to make a move.
The silver-haired old man was very satisfied with Yuan Qi's cautious attitude. After all, the battle was imminent. If the foundation-building monks were allowed to leave the city, they might be in danger of being ambushed by the Xu family.However, there is nothing wrong with cultivators at the pulse congealing stage. After all, the Xu family only has two Golden Core cultivators, and one of them is the Patriarch of the Xu Family who has just broken through the Golden Core for two years. He is unlikely to go out and attack the Yuan Family cultivators.
"Go." The silver-haired old man waved his hand: "Let the monks in these small places see the grandeur of my Yuan family. Being able to serve my Yuan family is a blessing they have cultivated for several lifetimes!"
Yuan Qi cupped his hands and left with the four monks.
The silver-haired old man encouraged the middle-aged man a few more words before leaving.Looking at the silver-haired old man's back, the middle-aged man couldn't help but secretly smiled wryly, did he choose Yuan's house as the place to stay at the beginning, did he choose the wrong one?

"Someone is chasing them." Xu Ziyan had the widest spiritual sense, and soon discovered the monks from the Yuan family who were chasing them.
"This Yuan family is really rampant. We all acted like we were about to leave, but they still chased us out?" Jiang Ying rubbed his chin, slightly surprised.
Xu Zirong sneered: "Since they are willing to come, let's come, just to get rid of them in advance."
Xu Ziyan didn't make a sound, but judging from his expression, he obviously agreed with Xu Zirong's meaning.He and Xu Xiao may not have any father-son relationship, but the other party has never lacked anything materially from him.Even if the relationship between father and son is not mentioned, he is still grateful to the Xu family, so naturally he cannot tolerate others bullying the Xu family at will.
Yuan Qi took the monks and followed the direction where the strange monks left with his sword.
His two bushy eyebrows were furrowed very close. Now that the battle with the Xu family was imminent, but the elder asked them to come out to carry out such a task, he couldn't help feeling a little resentful in his heart.
As one of the descendants of the Yuan family, he also has the right to inherit the Yuan family. Nowadays, who doesn't know that the son of the main line is a waste whose spiritual roots have been destroyed. Almost every young disciple of their branch line is eager to try, without any concealment own ambition.
Yuan Qi was naturally one of them, and he also knew that the elder's nephew was his competitor.Now that the elder sent him out to carry out such a task, it might be that he wanted to use the Xu family to kill him.
"Hmph." Yuan Qi snorted coldly, and stopped flying suddenly.
The four monks stopped after him, looking at Yuan Qi in bewilderment.
"Master, what's the matter?" The man who was able to follow Yuan Qi to carry out the mission was naturally his confidant, and the man in the lead asked in a low voice.
"I'm just upset that that old thing sent us out." Yuan Qi cursed carelessly without hiding his dissatisfaction with the silver-haired old man.
The leading man was silent for a moment: "The young master wants to be more open. After all, he is the patriarch's confidant, and the order to arrest casual cultivators was given by the ancestor."
When mentioning the old ancestor, Yuan Qi showed a look of fear on his face: "But the old ancestor let us arrest the loose cultivators in the city, that is to prevent those casual cultivators from being used by the Xu family, but these people are obviously going to leave , why bother with them?"
The leading man gave a wry smile, touched his nose and did not speak again.
Yuan Qi couldn't help vomit bitterness: "At the beginning, they were the main line. They offended the young master of Luoyumen, and lost most of our Yuan family's savings. Now that they have come to this Mo Xincheng, if they develop well, we will soon After several decades, it may not be impossible to develop, but I don't know what the patriarch thinks, what's the matter with fighting with the Xu family here? Such a big brother Xiaocheng, can my Yuan family still live here forever? "
"Maybe... the patriarch has his considerations." The leader man whispered.
"Fuck it, it's because he heard that the Xu family has something... er, what... what?"
"Climbing the fairy steps."
"That's right, I don't know which bastard spread the word about ascending the immortal stage, saying that if someone without spiritual roots walks up the immortal stage once, it will give birth to spiritual roots. Pooh, if this thing has such Great, how can the Xu family live in such a small city with no fixed point? If such a baby is known by those big sects, they will either try their best to win over the Xu family, or directly destroy their family and take away their things, neither of which Happened, obviously that thing is a lie."
Yuan Qi looked gloomy, and he wondered, where did the wise and courageous patriarch go?Now because of his stupid son, he even believed such outrageous news?
Besides, his stupid son's spiritual roots have been abolished, but it's not that he doesn't have spiritual roots, even if he finds the immortal step, it's useless.
Yuan Qi sighed, scratched his hair angrily, squatted on the flying sword without making a sound, neither said to go back, nor continued to chase.
One of the monks following him asked in a low voice: "Master, should we still chase after him?"
"Chasing, chasing, chasing, chasing. I'm not in the mood. This is not very far from Xu's house. If the Xu family is disturbed by a fight, we all have to stay here. I'm just perfunctory." Take a look at that old thing, and tell him when you get back, those monks have run into Xu's house, and we can't chase them in." Yuan Qi said with a displeased face.
The other monks looked at each other in blank dismay and fell silent.They are all monks of the Yuan Qi lineage. Although they are not named Yuan, they have already been branded with Yuan Qi. If Yuan Qi is good, they will be fine. Don't worry about someone going to inform you.
"Huh? They stopped." Xu Ziyan, who was in the distance, checked in his consciousness and saw that they stopped suddenly, said something and then stopped chasing them, and he was a little puzzled.
"What did they say?" Jiang Ying asked curiously.
Xu Ziyan shook his head. His spiritual sense was only observing from a distance, and he didn't dare to get too close. After all, the other party was also a monk in the pulse condensing stage, so it would be bad if he was discovered.
After waiting for a while, the other party was still hovering there, neither leaving nor approaching.
"Did they find us?" Xu Ziyan looked at Xu Zirong suspiciously.
Xu Zirong thought for a while, then shook his head lightly: "It's unlikely."
He made such a judgment based on the opponent's cultivation.The other party was only a monk in the early stage of pulse condensing, and the strength of their spiritual consciousness was far inferior to theirs. In addition, Xu Ziyan and others deliberately concealed them, so it was unlikely that they would find them.
Besides, even if some of them really have some special ability to discover their ambush in advance, if this is the case, they can either pretend not to notice, plot against them, or retreat directly.What's the point of doing neither, just wasting spiritual energy hovering there for no reason?
"They... have left?" Xu Ziyan said dumbfounded.
The other three couldn't help but look at each other, what is the meaning of this Yuan family?Get a bunch of people to chase them out, then don't come forward, and finally go back without saying anything?
I really can't figure it out...
"Forget it, don't care, who knows what the Yuan family is up to, let's find a place to rest, and we'll find out when we go home tonight." Xu Ziyan said helplessly.
He didn't bother to guess what the Yuan family was thinking, now he just wanted to know exactly what happened.He is still not sure whether the news he got from that aunt is true or not. The only thing he can be sure of is that the Xu family and the Yuan family are fighting.No matter what the reason for the fight was, he always had to consider it from the perspective of the Xu family.
Xu Ziyan doesn't talk about peaceful coexistence, sharing resources, etc. In this cultivation world, a good mine vein is as attractive to a cultivation family as those natural treasures are to monks.
He has never heard of any monk who can take the initiative to give up any natural treasures.
Of course, if the two parties are of equal strength, it’s okay to share together, but the Yuan family only came to Mo Xincheng for a year, and they wanted to steal the Xu family’s mines. Is Xincheng about to change hands?
So this matter is absolutely unbearable!
***
The short day passed quickly, and when night fell, Xu Ziyan led Jiang Ying and others quietly into the back mountain of the Xu family.
The back mountain of the Xu family is adjacent to a piece of forest, and that piece of forest is a good place for the children of the Xu family to practice.
Xu Ziyan had also been in and out of this sea of forest countless times, so he was very familiar with it, so he found the cliff on the mountain behind the martial arts hall after going around three times.
Looking at the towering rock wall, Xu Ziyan couldn't help feeling deeply moved. He remembered that when he and Zi Rong first slid down the rope, they seemed to be only 12 years old. In the blink of an eye, more than nine years passed, and they were only eight Zirong, who was [-] years old, is now an adult, time flies so fast.
Leading Jiang Ying and the others around the cliff and along the path to the back door of Xu's house, Xu Ziyan's heart skipped a beat and he stopped the hand that was about to knock on the door.
"What's wrong?" Xu Zirong asked.
Xu Ziyan rubbed his chin: "Almost one-third of an acre of land around Moxin City is under the control of our Xu family. It stands to reason that if a mineral lode is discovered, there is no reason for the people of the Yuan family to know about it. After all, they have only been here for a while. How could it be such a coincidence that they found out about our Xu family's mine veins?"
Xu Zirong's eyes flashed: "Is there a traitor?"
"Who knows, it's not a big mistake to be careful." Xu Ziyan shrugged, let Jiang Ying and the others hide aside first, and then under the cover of Mr. Fang Ge, he quietly climbed over the wall and entered the Xu family compound.
Familiar environment, different atmosphere.Today's Xu family compound is very tense because of the upcoming war.Almost every few steps, there are monks guarding in the dark. It seems that the Xu family is very afraid of the power of the Yuan family, otherwise they would not have mobilized so many people to guard against the opponent's sneak attack.
Xu Ziyan sneaked into Xu Xiao's courtyard quietly, and didn't come back for more than six years, so he felt a sense of trance.
"Who!" Shouted a stern voice, and a golden light burst out of the window.
Xu Ziyan was startled, and quickly dodged sideways, calling in a low voice, "Father, it's me."
"Ziyan?" Xu Xiao came out from the study, searching around with a pair of sharp eagle eyes.
Seeing his son appear in front of him like this, Xu Xiao felt as if he was dreaming.Shouldn't he be practicing in the Liuguang sect?Why did you come back suddenly?
"You!" After only a few glances, Xu Xiao's expression changed drastically. He walked over quickly, raised his hand and grabbed Xu Ziyan's veins.
Xu Ziyan forcibly restrained the urge to fight back, and kept telling himself in his heart, this is your father, ahem, at least the father of your body, maybe he has no father-son relationship with you, but at least he is the person in charge.And it is impossible for him to entrap his son, so - don't be nervous, don't overreact, don't let out a Purple Night Thunder, it will be a lot of fun.
After repeating it over and over again, he finally didn't really make a move to send Xu Xiao flying.Don't look at Xu Xiao's cultivation at the early stage of Jindan, but against Xu Ziyan, I'm afraid he really won't get any benefits.
Xu Xiao's spiritual power traveled around the meridians in Xu Ziyan's body, until he confirmed that there was no hidden danger in his body, and then he pulled it out.
He looked at Xu Ziyan with incredible eyes: "You are already in the late stage of pulse condensing? Why did you improve your cultivation so quickly?" Just after he finished speaking, before Xu Ziyan could answer, his face suddenly darkened again: "Just now I caught you. Why didn't you resist when you pulsed?"
Xu Ziyan: ...
Xu Xiao said with a cold face: "You know, the pulse door is the lifeblood of a monk, even if I am your father, you should not touch it easily! Do you know how many people in this cultivation world betray each other because of a little profit, how can you Guaranteed that father will not plot against you?"
Xu Ziyan: ...
Xu Xiao continued to blame: "Even if Dad has no intention of harming you, how can you have no intention of guarding against others? What if Dad is controlled by someone? Do you know how many ways to control people in this world? Plotting, how can you be the head of the Xu family?"
He said earnestly: "Ziyan, you are not young anymore, why are you still as defenseless as you were when you were a child? Remember, from now on, no matter if it is your father or anyone else, you must not let anyone easily pinch your pulse Door, do you know!" At the end, Xu Xiao's tone became very harsh.
Xu Ziyan had no choice but to nod silently.
Well, although Xu Xiao is not a good father, at least he is a responsible father.
For him, don't even think about looking for love, he even wonders if Xu Xiao understands what love is?
After admonishing Xu Ziyan, Xu Xiao frowned: "Why did you come back from Liuguangzong? But what happened?"
Xu Ziyan shook his head, and only said that he led his master to go to Wuti City to congratulate the clansmen of his master's friends, and came back to have a look.
Xu Xiao's heart moved: "Wuyi City? But Wuyi City was attacked by monsters a while ago?"
Xu Ziyan suddenly realized that it had been several months since they were dragged into the Demon Realm of the Prison of Fire. The attack by monsters was no small matter, and the news must have spread.
He nodded, a look of worry flashed in Xu Xiao's eyes, but nothing showed on his face: "Is there any injury?"
"No." Xu Ziyan shook his head.
Xu Xiao nodded: "Since you're back, why didn't you see your brother?" He still remembered the child who had a cold face all day, but liked to pester Zi Rong.Speaking of which, at the beginning he wanted that child to be Zirong's sharpening stone, but now it seems that he has become Zirong's help.
Forget it, although the child didn't please him, and even disliked him a little because of his mother, but after all, he also has his own blood, so I still have to ask a question.
"Zi Rong is outside the door, as well as our two friends." Xu Ziyan explained.
"Thank you, Mom, we know."
"Well, since you are passing by, you should hurry up. It seems that the sky is going to change these two days. Since the two sides fought a big fight three days ago, the Yuan family has become more and more arrogant. I think the Xu family Seems like you're going to be unlucky, you monks passing by, don't get caught by that Yuan family."
"Catch strong men?" Xu Ziyan's eyes flashed: "Ma'am, what's the matter with arresting strong men?"
The aunt carefully looked around and lowered her voice: "My son saw this with his own eyes. Some monks who passed by were captured by the people of the Yuan family. Later, I don't know what benefits they gave. , just look at those monks helping them to fight the Xu family. Otherwise, the Xu family would not have lost so quickly. You better be careful, this monk will die at any time when he fights, and he was killed for no reason. Forced to fight for life and death with others, no one will be happy when it's their turn. I advise you, it's better to leave as soon as possible."
"Auntie, thank you for your reminder, we will definitely be careful." Xu Ziyan comforted the aunt with a smile, and then gave her another low-grade spirit stone.
The aunt smiled happily and took the two spirit stones away.These are two spirit stones. If they were exchanged for silver, they would be enough for their family to live for two years!Got it just by answering a few questions, what a bargain!
"Brother Ziyan..." As soon as Jiang Ying said that, he felt the chill on his back.This title was decided by Xu Ziyan, he didn't want Jiang Ying to call him 'master's brother'.However, Xu Zirong didn't seem to like this title very much, but under Xu Ziyan's high pressure, he could only recognize it by rubbing his nose, and then turned his head like Jiang Ying exerting pressure...
Jiang Ying analyzed the pros and cons, and decisively decided to use this title.Being hated by the master, although it is bad, but if you offend Xu Ziyan, you will suffer double hatred, and the master will hold the hatred even deeper...
_(:з"∠)_, Emma is not easy to be a younger brother these days, both left and right are wrong, it is really difficult to mix.
Jiang Ying's reaction caught Xu Ziyan's eyes, and he immediately cast a threatening look at Xu Zirong.
Xu Zirong: ...
"Azusa Yan, shall we go back to your house now?"
"Let's not go back now. Now the enemy is in the clear and I am in the dark. Let's take a look first before we talk. Zirong and I will go back quietly from the back mountain at night."
"Okay, then shall we go to the hotel now?"
Xu Ziyan thought for a while: "Forget it. From the tone of that aunt, this Yuan family is about to fight our family. At this time, once the monk progresses, it will definitely attract the attention of the two families." After finishing speaking, he read Look at Zirong.
Xu Zirong shook his head: "No one is staring at us. Maybe the two sides are evenly matched now, so no one dares to come out alone for fear of being attacked. But if we live in an inn, it will be difficult to hide."
"Since this is the case...then we'd better go out of the city first, find a quiet place to wait, and go home at night to have a look."
"it is good."
After discussing it, everyone went back along the way they came from.When passing by the city gate, Xu Zirong frowned slightly, flicked his fingertips, and shot a drop of blood at a skylark in mid-air, and the skylark fell in response to the sound. In a large courtyard in the east of the city, a middle-aged man groaned , spit out a mouthful of blood.
"What's going on?" The matter of the middle-aged man's injury was quickly reported to the head of the Yuan family. An old man with silver hair rushed over and asked the middle-aged man.
"Elder Qi, today I sent a skylark out to patrol the city. I didn't expect to see a few strange monks at the gate of the city. Those people's cultivation base is not low, and one of them quickly discovered me. Skylark was killed." The middle-aged man said respectfully.
"Huh? Strange monk? Could it be that he came to help the Xu family?" The old man's eyes flashed, and there was a sternness in his eyes.
"I don't know. My Skylark only saw that there were about four of them. They couldn't tell from their cultivation, but they were heading out of the city. They might have heard about what happened here, so they wanted to avoid it."
"Huh, no matter whether you are passing by or not, since you are here in Mo Xincheng, if you don't come to my Yuan family as a guest, wouldn't you be looking down on my Yuan family!" Those guests please come back."
The middle-aged man looked at the old man hesitantly, and finally sighed silently and said nothing.He didn't agree with the old man's forcible arrest of monks, but in the Yuan family, he was just a priest, and there was no comparison with the elders of the Yuan family's own clan.
The middle-aged man watched silently as a burly man brought four monks at the pulse condensing stage to take orders from the old man. Most of the people who haunted Moxin City were casual cultivators below Foundation Establishment. He was already very proficient in this kind of thing, but he still maintained his vigilance, even leading four monks in the pulse condensing stage to make a move.
The silver-haired old man was very satisfied with Yuan Qi's cautious attitude. After all, the battle was imminent. If the foundation-building monks were allowed to leave the city, they might be in danger of being ambushed by the Xu family.However, there is nothing wrong with cultivators at the pulse congealing stage. After all, the Xu family only has two Golden Core cultivators, and one of them is the Patriarch of the Xu Family who has just broken through the Golden Core for two years. He is unlikely to go out and attack the Yuan Family cultivators.
"Go." The silver-haired old man waved his hand: "Let the monks in these small places see the grandeur of my Yuan family. Being able to serve my Yuan family is a blessing they have cultivated for several lifetimes!"
Yuan Qi cupped his hands and left with the four monks.
The silver-haired old man encouraged the middle-aged man a few more words before leaving.Looking at the silver-haired old man's back, the middle-aged man couldn't help but secretly smiled wryly, did he choose Yuan's house as the place to stay at the beginning, did he choose the wrong one?

"Someone is chasing them." Xu Ziyan had the widest spiritual sense, and soon discovered the monks from the Yuan family who were chasing them.
"This Yuan family is really rampant. We all acted like we were about to leave, but they still chased us out?" Jiang Ying rubbed his chin, slightly surprised.
Xu Zirong sneered: "Since they are willing to come, let's come, just to get rid of them in advance."

Yuan Qi couldn't help vomit bitterness: "At the beginning, they were the main line. They offended the young master of Luoyumen, and lost most of our Yuan family's savings. Now that they have come to this Mo Xincheng, if they develop well, we will soon After several decades, it may not be impossible to develop, but I don't know what the patriarch thinks, what's the matter with fighting with the Xu family here?

If such a baby is known by those big sects, they will either try their best to win over the Xu family, or directly destroy their family and take away their things, neither of which Happened, obviously that thing is a lie."
Yuan Qi looked gloomy, and he wondered, where did the wise and courageous patriarch go?Now because of his stupid son, he even believed such outrageous news?
Besides, his stupid son's spiritual roots have been abolished, but it's not that he doesn't have spiritual roots, even if he finds the immortal step, it's useless.
Yuan Qi sighed, scratched his hair angrily, squatted on the flying sword without making a sound, neither said to go back, nor continued to chase.
One of the monks following him asked in a low voice: "Master, should we still chase after him?"
"Chasing, chasing, chasing, chasing. I'm not in the mood. This is not very far from Xu's house. If the Xu family is disturbed by a fight, we all have to stay here. I'm just perfunctory." Take a look at that old thing, and tell him when you get back, those monks have run into Xu's house, and we can't chase them in." Yuan Qi said with a displeased face.
The other monks looked at each other in blank dismay and fell silent.They are all monks of the Yuan Qi lineage. Although they are not named Yuan, they have already been branded with Yuan Qi. If Yuan Qi is good, they will be fine. Don't worry about someone going to inform you.
"Huh? They stopped." Xu Ziyan, who was in the distance, checked in his consciousness and saw that they stopped suddenly, said something and then stopped chasing them, and he was a little puzzled.
"What did they say?" Jiang Ying asked curiously.
Xu Ziyan shook his head. His spiritual sense was only observing from a distance, and he didn't dare to get too close. After all, the other party was also a monk in the pulse condensing stage, so it would be bad if he was discovered.

He made such a judgment based on the opponent's cultivation.The other party was only a monk in the early stage of pulse condensing, and the strength of their spiritual consciousness was far inferior to theirs. In addition, Xu Ziyan and others deliberately concealed them, so it was unlikely that they would find them.
Besides, even if some of them really have some special ability to discover their ambush in advance, if this is the case, they can either pretend not to notice, plot against them, or retreat directly.What's the point of doing neither, just wasting spiritual energy hovering there for no reason?
"They... have left?" Xu Ziyan said dumbfounded.
The other three couldn't help but look at each other, what is the meaning of this Yuan family?Get a bunch of people to chase them out, then don't come forward, and finally go back without saying anything?
I really can't figure it out...
"Forget it, don't care, who knows what the Yuan family is up to, let's find a place to rest, and we'll find out when we go home tonight." Xu Ziyan said helplessly.
He didn't bother to guess what the Yuan family was thinking, now he just wanted to know exactly what happened.He is still not sure whether the news he got from that aunt is true or not. The only thing he can be sure of is that the Xu family and the Yuan family are fighting.No matter what the reason for the fight was, he always had to consider it from the perspective of the Xu family.
Xu Ziyan doesn't talk about peaceful coexistence, sharing resources, etc. In this cultivation world, a good mine vein is as attractive to a cultivation family as those natural treasures are to monks.
He has never heard of any monk who can take the initiative to give up any natural treasures.
Of course, if the two parties are of equal strength, it’s okay to share together, but the Yuan family only came to Mo Xincheng for a year, and they wanted to steal the Xu family’s mines. Is Xincheng about to change hands?
So this matter is absolutely unbearable!
***
The short day passed quickly, and when night fell, Xu Ziyan led Jiang Ying and others quietly into the back mountain of the Xu family.
The back mountain of the Xu family is adjacent to a piece of forest, and that piece of forest is a good place for the children of the Xu family to practice.
Xu Ziyan had also been in and out of this sea of forest countless times, so he was very familiar with it, so he found the cliff on the mountain behind the martial arts hall after going around three times.
Looking at the towering rock wall, Xu Ziyan couldn't help feeling deeply moved. He remembered that when he and Zi Rong first slid down the rope, they seemed to be only 12 years old. In the blink of an eye, more than nine years passed, and they were only eight Zirong, who was [-] years old, is now an adult, time flies so fast.
Leading Jiang Ying and the others around the cliff and along the path to the back door of Xu's house, Xu Ziyan's heart skipped a beat and he stopped the hand that was about to knock on the door.
"What's wrong?" Xu Zirong asked.
Xu Ziyan rubbed his chin: "Almost one-third of an acre of land around Moxin City is under the control of our Xu family. It stands to reason that if a mineral lode is discovered, there is no reason for the people of the Yuan family to know about it. After all, they have only been here for a while. How could it be such a coincidence that they found out about our Xu family's mine veins?"
Xu Zirong's eyes flashed: "Is there a traitor?"
"Who knows, it's not a big mistake to be careful." Xu Ziyan shrugged, let Jiang Ying and the others hide aside first, and then under the cover of Mr. Fang Ge, he quietly climbed over the wall and entered the Xu family compound.
Familiar environment, different atmosphere.Today's Xu family compound is very tense because of the upcoming war.Almost every few steps, there are monks guarding in the dark. It seems that the Xu family is very afraid of the power of the Yuan family, otherwise they would not have mobilized so many people to guard against the opponent's sneak attack.
Xu Ziyan sneaked into Xu Xiao's courtyard quietly, and didn't come back for more than six years, so he felt a sense of trance.
"Who!" Shouted a stern voice, and a golden light burst out of the window.
Xu Ziyan was startled, and quickly dodged sideways, calling in a low voice, "Father, it's me."
"Ziyan?" Xu Xiao came out from the study, searching around with a pair of sharp eagle eyes.
Seeing his son appear in front of him like this, Xu Xiao felt as if he was dreaming.Shouldn't he be practicing in the Liuguang sect?Why did you come back suddenly?
"You!" After only a few glances, Xu Xiao's expression changed drastically. He walked over quickly, raised his hand and grabbed Xu Ziyan's veins.
Xu Ziyan forcibly restrained the urge to fight back, and kept telling himself in his heart, this is your father, ahem, at least the father of your body, maybe he has no father-son relationship with you, but at least he is the person in charge.And it is impossible for him to entrap his son, so - don't be nervous, don't overreact, don't let out a Purple Night Thunder, it will be a lot of fun.
After repeating it over and over again, he finally didn't really make a move to send Xu Xiao flying.Don't look at Xu Xiao's cultivation at the early stage of Jindan, but against Xu Ziyan, I'm afraid he really won't get any benefits.
Xu Xiao's spiritual power traveled around the meridians in Xu Ziyan's body, until he confirmed that there was no hidden danger in his body, and then he pulled it out.
He looked at Xu Ziyan with incredible eyes: "You are already in the late stage of pulse condensing? Why did you improve your cultivation so quickly?" Just after he finished speaking, before Xu Ziyan could answer, his face suddenly darkened again: "Just now I caught you. Why didn't you resist when you pulsed?"
Xu Ziyan: ...
Xu Xiao said with a cold face: "You know, the pulse door is the lifeblood of a monk, even if I am your father, you should not touch it easily! Do you know how many people in this cultivation world betray each other because of a little profit, how can you Guaranteed that father will not plot against you?"
Xu Ziyan: ...
Xu Xiao continued to blame: "Even if Dad has no intention of harming you, how can you have no intention of guarding against others? What if Dad is controlled by someone? Do you know how many ways to control people in this world? Plotting, how can you be the head of the Xu family?"
He said earnestly: "Ziyan, you are not young anymore, why are you still as defenseless as you were when you were a child? Remember, from now on, no matter if it is your father or anyone else, you must not let anyone easily pinch your pulse Door, do you know!" At the end, Xu Xiao's tone became very harsh.
Xu Ziyan had no choice but to nod silently.
Well, although Xu Xiao is not a good father, at least he is a responsible father.
For him, don't even think about looking for love, he even wonders if Xu Xiao understands what love is?
After admonishing Xu Ziyan, Xu Xiao frowned: "Why did you come back from Liuguangzong? But what happened?"
Xu Ziyan shook his head, and only said that he led his master to go to Wuti City to congratulate the clansmen of his master's friends, and came back to have a look.
Xu Xiao's heart moved: "Wuyi City? But Wuyi City was attacked by monsters a while ago?"
Xu Ziyan suddenly realized that it had been several months since they were dragged into the Demon Realm of the Prison of Fire. The attack by monsters was no small matter, and the news must have spread.
He nodded, a look of worry flashed in Xu Xiao's eyes, but nothing showed on his face: "Is there any injury?"
"No." Xu Ziyan shook his head.
Xu Xiao nodded: "Since you're back, why didn't you see your brother?" He still remembered the child who had a cold face all day, but liked to pester Zi Rong.Speaking of which, at the beginning he wanted that child to be Zirong's sharpening stone, but now it seems that he has become Zirong's help.
Forget it, although the child didn't please him, and even disliked him a little because of his mother, but after all, he also has his own blood, so I still have to ask a question.
"Zi Rong is outside the door, as well as our two friends." Xu Ziyan explained.
