Holding the sword and holding the sister away

Chu Lingling?

For some reason, when hearing these three words, Fu Yan couldn't help being slightly taken aback. She seemed to have seen this name in the original book.

Perhaps it was because she abandoned the article halfway, so Fu Yan only knew the story that happened in the Northern Territory. After all, after the hero left the Northern Territory, she quickly abandoned the article, and the content behind it was naturally unknown.

But the name Chu Lingling seems to have appeared later in the content, but she is not one of the male protagonist's harem, after all, the male protagonist only has a relationship with Bai Yueli in the Northern Territory.

Looking at the little girl who was only about eleven or twelve years old in front of her, Fu Yan didn't get too entangled in her identity. Anyway, except for Bai Yueli, she had no interest in participating in the plot of the original book. .

Of course, it is also possible that she has misremembered, perhaps Chu Lingling is just an ordinary mortal.

"Lingling." Chu Yuzhan also came out of the wooden house at some point, as if he had cried, his eyes were still a little red, he looked at Chu Lingling in front of the house, and could not help but slowly squat down.

Chu Lingling just turned around and looked back at her brother whom she hadn't seen for a year. After thinking about what happened before, she couldn't help feeling sad, and couldn't help but hugged Chu Yuzhan and started crying.

Looking at the picture in front of her, Fu Yan suddenly felt a little embarrassed. It's not right for her to leave at this time, or not to leave.

At this time, there was a loud "bang" from the sky, and a few bolts of lightning suddenly flashed across the sky. Fu Yan raised her eyes and realized that it was going to rain.

Chu Yuzhan at the side seemed to have finally come to his senses, he couldn't help hugging the little Chu Lingling, and the spirit beast was still quietly in her arms, Chu Yuzhan raised his eyes to look at Fu Yan, After calming down, he said: "I'm sorry, I let fellow Taoist Fu read the joke, but I suddenly found out that my mother died of illness, and I couldn't hold it back."

Fu Yan withdrew her gaze, but shook her head helplessly.

"It seems to be raining heavily today. If Fellow Daoist Fu doesn't dislike it, you can simply rest here tonight and leave tomorrow by yourself." Chu Kuzhan also glanced at the dark cloud-covered sky, feeling a little embarrassed suggested.

Fu Yan thought for a while, but didn't say anything more, just simply nodded: "It's troublesome."

"Boom!"

After a huge lightning flashed across the sky again, the heavy rain fell quickly. It seemed that because it was in the mountains, the air smelled of mud.

Under the huge eaves, Fu Yan was leaning on a pillar beside her, her gaze calmly fell on the yard, she quietly watched the scene of the rainwater dripping quickly, and she didn't know what she was thinking.

On the other hand, Chu Lingling was hiding on the ground helping Xiaomao to comb his hair, while secretly looking at Fuyan next to her from time to time.

"What's wrong?" Fu Yan came back to her senses, looked down at Chu Lingling, and asked slowly.

"No...no..." The little girl seemed a little embarrassed, and quickly moved her gaze away, but after a while, she stared at Fu Yan curiously again.

This time Fu Yan didn't speak, but let her secretly look at herself, and it took a long time before she heard that childish voice.

"Sister, are you and my brother a Taoist couple?" Chu Yuzhan asked cautiously with his big eyes fluttering.

This inexplicable sentence made Fu Yan ask a bit funny, but she was not in a hurry to refute, but looked at Chu Lingling and asked, "Why do you think so?"

Hearing this, Chu Lingling seemed a little flustered: "I... I just heard that the immortal cultivators who walk together are all Taoist companions."

This time Fu Yan really couldn't help laughing. After thinking about it, she squatted down and explained: "Your brother and I are just ordinary friends."

In fact, they are not even friends, they just met each other.

After finishing speaking, Fu Yan became slightly interested in the spirit beast in Chu Lingling's hands. She glanced at Xiao Mao who was squinting comfortably, and asked, "It's called Xiao Mao, did you tame it?"

Chu Lingling didn't seem to understand the meaning of taking it in, she just replied in a daze: "Sister, do you mean Xiaomao, it suddenly appeared in my house not long ago, I saw that it was injured, so I begged my mother to take it in. "

Fu Yan nodded, but didn't continue to say anything, after all, this spirit beast has already recognized its owner.

"Ah! My clothes!"

At this moment, Chu Lingling on the side seemed to suddenly think of something, and she quickly stood up, ignoring the heavy rain outside, and rushed directly into the yard. When Fu Yan reacted, she saw that the small figure had already Shuttle in the heavy rain.

When Chu Lingling returned to the roof again, her whole body was completely soaked, she was still holding a set of clothes in her hands, and her black hair was tightly attached to her scalp, she looked a bit embarrassed.

Looking at the completely soaked clothes in her hands, the little girl couldn't help holding back her mouth in aggrieved manner, and then let out a long sigh.

Fu Yan couldn't help smiling, looking at Chu Lingling who was drenched in water, she was a little afraid that she would catch a cold, after all, the little girl in front of her was just a mortal, and her physique was naturally not comparable to that of a cultivator.

Thinking about this, Fu Yan couldn't help pinching out a ball of flames with his backhand, and then said to Chu Lingling: "Come here."

Seeing the sudden flame in Fu Yan's hand, Chu Lingling couldn't help being startled, but after hearing Fu Yan's words, she still walked slowly and moved over.

"Stretch out your hand." Fu Yan said again.

Chu Lingling looked at Fu Yan with some confusion, and finally stretched out her little hand cautiously, and then she saw that Fu Yan put the ball of flame directly on her hand.

"Ah!" Chu Lingling was startled.

Just when she quickly retracted her hand reflexively, she found that the flame was still on her palm, and what was even more incredible was that she didn't feel any heat.

She had never seen such a scene before, and Chu Lingling couldn't help staring at her palm curiously, watching the flames burning quietly, but in just a few breaths, her whole body was just wet, and in an instant, Come back.

"Sister is so amazing!" Chu Lingling was surprised, she couldn't help raising her eyes to look at Fu Yan, and praised sincerely.

Fu Yan smiled, and seeing that Chu Lingling was not wet at all, she moved her index finger slightly, and the white flame disappeared instantly.

Now, Chu Lingling stared at her palm even more in surprise.

"Do you want to be this powerful?" Fu Yan asked her suddenly.

……

After Chu Yuzhan finished dealing with his mother's funeral, the sky had already brightened and the sky cleared up. Fu Yan looked into the distance and prepared to leave.

"Thank you, Fellow Daoist Fu, for your life-saving grace. Although my strength may not be enough, Fu Yan can come to Yunxiao Pavilion directly to find me if I am useful in the future." Chu Yuzhan knew that Fu Yan still had his own There was something to do, so I didn't stay too long, I just looked at Fu Yan and said sincerely.

Fu Yan nodded, and responded: "Okay, then I'll leave first." After finishing speaking, she looked at Chu Lingling at the side, smiled and said: "Goodbye, Lingling."

"Goodbye, sister Fu!" Chu Lingling also hurriedly stretched out her hand to bid farewell to Fu Yan.

After finishing speaking, Fu Yan quickly met and left here, leaving only two brothers and sisters in the yard.

After Fu Yan's figure completely disappeared, Chu Yuzhan finally lowered his eyes to look at Chu Lingling at the side, thinking of his mother who had passed away, he suddenly felt uncomfortable.

As if aware of her brother's gaze, Chu Lingling couldn't help but look up at him, and then asked in a childish voice: "Brother, are you... leaving too?"

It is true that Chu Yuzhan will not stay here longer, he has to go back to the sect, but leaving Chu Lingling alone at home, he will definitely not feel relieved.

"Brother, I also want to cultivate immortality."

Just when Chu Yuzhan was hesitating about his sister's going out, he suddenly heard Chu Lingling's voice coming again.

Hearing this, he couldn't help being slightly taken aback, Chu Yuzhan didn't want his sister to cultivate immortality, but Chu Lingling's aptitude was too poor, and besides, it was too late to start cultivating at this age.

Seeing that Chu Yuzhan didn't answer, Chu Lingling's eye sockets suddenly became moist: "Is it not possible?"

"Okay, our Lingling is also cultivating immortals." How could Chu Yuzhan refuse, he thought that although Chu Lingling's aptitude is not good, but if he tried his best to earn some pills, he could make her enter the consecration period.

As long as you step into the consecration period, you will not be a mortal, and your life span will be long.

"That's great!" Chu Lingling laughed immediately, and then took out a few small bottles of body refining pills, and said to Chu Kuzhan, "Look, brother, these are all given to me by sister Fu, she Said that I can cultivate immortality as long as I eat these!"

Seeing the dozens of Body Tempering Pills in Chu Lingling's hand, Chu Kuzhan couldn't help being startled, the value is two to three thousand low-grade spirit stones.

Chu Lingling didn't seem to pay too much attention, she just pulled Xiao Mao and cheered happily: "Xiao Mao, did you hear that my brother said that I can also cultivate immortality!"

"Cultivating Immortals, Immortals, I want to be as good as Sister Fu!"

In fact, Fu Yan also saw that Chu Lingling was a little cute, and it was also a kind of fate that the two met, so she moved her heart and gave her a few bottles of quenching pills. For her now, it is basically useless.

Instead, let her make a favor along the way.

In fact, Fu Yan can also feel that Chu Lingling's aptitude is really average. If there is no great opportunity, they may only stay in the consecration period in this life, but with the spirit beast Xiaomao by their side, they should It is also possible to live well.

Moreover, there is no absolute statement on the path of cultivating immortality, everything depends on the luck of the individual.

After leaving the mountain of Chu Yu and Fan's house, Fu Yan didn't think too much, she raised her eyes to look in the direction of Shui Lingzong, and finally went directly with the sword.

Calculating the time carefully, it seems that it is not long before the triennial Zongmen Grand Competition in the Northern Territory. It is estimated that all major sects have already begun to prepare for it.

However, what Fu Yan valued was naturally not the sect competition, but the opening of the secret realm of the ancient battlefield, which was the most suitable opportunity to find opportunities around the time of the competition.

Speaking of the great secret realm this time, Fu Yan thought of the beast horde yesterday, perhaps because of the fluctuation of the birth of space, it had such a large scale.

No matter what, she will definitely get a share of the big secret adventure this time.

Thinking of this, Fu Yan didn't delay at all, and directly flew all the way to the direction of Shui Lingzong.

Because in order to track down Chu Yuzhan, Fu Yan had to fly with her back for a day yesterday, so it was not until two days later that she finally saw the shadows of the three major peaks of the Shuiling Sect from a distance.

When she stepped into the inner door again, Fu Yan couldn't help but feel as if she had passed away. The scene of her entering the inner door half a year ago was still vivid in her memory, as if it happened yesterday.

Recalling the past, Fu Yan thought of Tong Zhen, the first friend she made here. She doesn't know how she is doing now. With a family background like that in Zhongdu, she might be far behind her in strength. Far beyond myself.

Sure enough, the road of cultivating immortality really cannot allow a little slack.

Fu Yan's cabin is still the same.It's nothing special, it's just that there is a layer of dust on the inside. As soon as she entered the room, she squeezed a cleaning solution, and it was restored to the original cleanness in an instant.

After tidying up briefly, Fu Yan lay down and prepared to rest for the night. After all, he was still a little tired after driving for two days.

A good night's sleep.

Fu Yan opened her eyes again, it was already early in the morning the next day, the sun outside had already hung high, the sky was as clear as blue, it was a fine weather.

After going out for less than half a year, the ranking of the inner sect has already undergone great changes, Fu Yan couldn't help but took out his identity wooden badge, and checked the ranking of the inner sect again.

I saw that my ranking has dropped from No. 40 to 72. I have to say that in the past six months, the rankings of the top fifty have fluctuated greatly. After all, not only Fu Yan is improving, everyone's strength Both got raised.

No.1 is still Bai Yueli, and Shui Liuqing is also ranked No.20. Fu Yan remembers that before going down the mountain, Shui Liuqing should not have entered the top [-]. Presumably she returned to the clan earlier and faster than Fu Yan brought up.

For the Zongmen Grand Competition held every three years, only the top 35 of each sect can have the opportunity to compete on stage, and if they want to go to watch the battle together, they must have the strength of the top [-].

In fact, it doesn't matter whether you go or not, but she can't remember the exact time when the secret realm of the ancient battlefield was born. It seems to be when the Zongmen Grand Competition is held for one-third. If so, she can go and see it.

After all, Bai Yueli was definitely going to join the battle.

Thinking of this, Fu Yan quickly got up and left her cabin, and walked directly towards the inner door's competition field. After all, if she wanted to go to watch the competition, her ranking was far from enough.

Perhaps everyone has the same mentality as Fu Yan, so there are quite a few people gathered in the competition field at this moment, and there are also many masters on the list. It is estimated that they want to break into the top [-] in one fell swoop so that they can participate This is the grand ceremony of the Dabi.

Fu Yan was not in a hurry to find someone to challenge, but watched a few competitions at random below, but the competitions on stage were relatively well-regulated, and there was no strength worthy of people's eyes.

Soon, Fu Yan found a No. 20 top player on the list to challenge, and that person recognized Fu Yan after he took the stage.

"It turned out to be you, the dark horse player in the ranking competition last time. I didn't expect that half a year later, you also broke through to the late stage of consecration." Hao Yi continued to say wholeheartedly: "Although I am also in the late stage of consecration, I have already touched the threshold of Dzogchen, and my strength is still better than yours."

The man said it firmly, as if Fu Yan had already been defeated by his subordinates.

In fact, Fu Yan just wanted to be in the top 35 and get a place to watch the Zongmen Grand Competition, so he didn't care about this person's provocation at all.

The strength of the opponent is actually not as strong as Duan Sixin in the martial arts arena. If Fu Yan used the low-level sword moves of the prefecture level, he might be able to win or lose with one sword, but he didn't want to hurt his self-confidence too much. Yan still had a few tricks with him calmly.

Finally, seeing that the timing was right, Fu Yan directly used the third form of the Wuhuan Sword, and then defeated the opponent with one blow without accident, and won the victory very smoothly.

After the man was defeated, he still didn't seem to be able to react, and stared at Fu Yan who drew his sword in front of him in disbelief.

This competition naturally attracted a lot of onlookers.

"It turns out that she is Senior Sister Fu. I have heard about her deeds a long time ago. She was the biggest dark horse in the last ranking competition. I didn't expect that half a year has passed, and Senior Sister Fu is really getting better and better."

"My God, Junior Sister Fu has already comprehended all three forms of the Wuhuan Sword, and she is so proficient in using it, it's simply too terrifying."

"What's so surprising about this, haven't you guys heard of it? Junior sister Fuyan has won [-] games in a row in Chaoyang City's Martial Arts Arena. She is a genius who is as famous as our senior sister."

"What battle field? Is it very powerful, and what do you mean by the last sentence, you mean that Fu Yan is already as powerful as Senior Sister Bai?"

"Impossible. I saw Senior Sister Bai returned to the sect a few days ago. She has already broken through to the Great Consecration period. Fu Yan can't compare to it."

"..."

For a while, everyone couldn't help discussing what they saw and heard outside, but Fu Yan didn't have any interest in this. Now that he has entered the top 35, there is no need to stay in the competition field.

So after winning the competition, Fu Yan quickly walked off the stage, and then went straight out of the huge competition field.

After leaving the competition field, Fu Yan didn't intend to go to Shui Liuqing. Now they are in the inner sect. The master-servant contract between the two of them can't reveal anything. After all, there is an elder Zhou who is watching him all the time.

However, there are still more than ten days before the Zongmen Grand Competition, so Fu Yan naturally couldn't relax. After thinking about it, she went directly to the back mountain. With her current strength, she can try to challenge the B level. .

Because during this period of time, everyone's attention could not help but fall on their own rankings, so at this time, the challenge side of the Houshan checkpoint seemed extraordinarily deserted, and only a few people could be seen here and there.

Fu Yan didn't pay attention to it too much, and walked directly to the registration elder, and then happily chose the B level.

The level B is specially set up for the disciples of late-stage consecration, but Fu Yan's strength is obviously higher than that of ordinary late-stage cultivation, so there is no difficulty in breaking through the level.

A total of five levels, all went extremely smoothly.

But because of this, Fu Yan has a strong interest in the level A again, and she even wants to try whether she can break through the level set for the Dzogchen cultivation base during the consecration period.

As soon as he had this idea, Fu Yan quickly made a decision.

So in the next few days, Fu Yan has been in a two-point line between her cabin and the challenge of the Houshan checkpoint. The Jiazi checkpoint is extremely difficult, and she failed in the third checkpoint the first time.

But Fu Yan didn't give up lightly. Since she didn't do it once, she would do it a second time. So in the past few days, she has challenged back and forth three or four times.

Finally, at the fourth time, Fu Yan successfully broke through the Jiazi checkpoint in one breath. Thinking about it carefully, it was extremely difficult.

In the past few days, Fu Yan's ranking has dropped to No. 20 and [-] again, and she is about to fall out of the top [-].

Fu Yan: "..."

Looking at the frequency of ranking changes, Fu Yan had to sigh with emotion, these people are really crazy, and it is estimated that in order to get a place in the Zongmen Grand Competition, each of them rushed forward with all their strength.

And this kind of behavior is naturally welcome to the Zongmen. After all, if the Zongmen wants to achieve good results in the Grand Competition, it is natural to come up with the top [-] most powerful inner sects.

Therefore, in the last few days, the sect has specially issued a rule, that is, the top [-] disciples cannot refuse the challenge request of the subsequent disciples. move.

But Bai Yueli was the most stable, she was No.1 from the beginning to the end.

Fu Yan looked at the ranking in the wooden sign, and shook her head amusedly. She was not in a hurry to improve her ranking, as long as she didn't drop out of the 35th place.

Until this day, Bai Yueli suddenly came to the door.

Seeing Bai Yueli appearing in her yard, Fu Yan was still a little surprised. After all, it had been a week since they both returned to the sect, and this seemed to be the first time they had met.

"Senior Sister." Fu Yan looked at the people in the yard, couldn't help but greeted with a smile.

Looking at Fu Yan, Bai Yueli seemed to be hesitant, but in the end she asked truthfully, "Aren't you going to participate in the Zongmen Grand Competition?"

In the past six months, Bai Yueli has seen Fu Yan's progress one by one. She understands Fu Yan's current strength, and there is no problem in entering the top ten of the inner sect, but the other party does not seem to be participating in the sect grand competition. mean.

After coming back to the inner sect for so long, he just participated in a competition.

The Zongmen Grand Competition is the most important event in the Northern Territory over the years. If you perform well, you will not only get rich rewards from your sect, but you may also have the opportunity to study in the Central Capital.

So Bai Yueli has always attached great importance to this competition since she stepped into the cultivation of immortals, but the people in front of her didn't seem to care.

Fu Yan didn't expect Bai Yueli to ask her about this, and she didn't know how to explain it for a while. She couldn't just say that the competition was halfway through, and an ancient secret realm would be born.

After a while, Fu Yan suddenly looked at Bai Yueli seriously, and she said, "I see, senior sister."

The next day, Fu Yan wanted to challenge the fifth place, and it spread throughout the inner sect instantly.
