"The man riding the silver dragon horse just now is of the same generation as me, his name is Qin Xingjun, but he is the youngest martial arts master and clan elder of our Qin family. So don't mention me, even those who are senior to him must respect him.
A clan elder cannot be called by his first name, let alone treat him as a junior." Qin Xingbao watched a horse and a man enter the city gate, and said to Qin Ziling in a low voice.
"How old is he this year?" Qin Ziling asked.
"He became a martial arts master two years ago. It is said that he was twenty-three years old that year, so he should be twenty-five years old now!" Qin Xingbao replied.
"Becoming a martial arts master at the age of twenty-three, wow, that's awesome!" Qin Ziling admired sincerely.
"Yes, if nothing unexpected happens, there is definitely no problem with becoming a middle grandmaster, but it is hard to say for a great master. There have been many martial arts masters younger than him in the history of Wuzhou, but they either died halfway or were stuck in the heart.
At this level, if you can really become a Grandmaster, that would be incredible!" Qin Xingbao said...
"Haha, the middle master and the great master are far away from us. Let's go to the Qin Mansion first." Qin Ziling said with a smile.
"Hehe, yes, yes." Qin Xingbao smiled, and then followed Qin Ziling to ride the horse onto the suspension bridge.
Qin Ziling carried the identity letter issued to him by Qin Tianchou, and he handed the identity letter to the guard.
After the guard read the identity letter, he did not dare to neglect, and immediately politely led Qin Ziling to the waiting hall, and then ordered someone to report it quickly.
Soon, an old man who looked like a steward came in a carriage to greet Qin Ziling.
"Uncle Clan, I'll leave first. I live in the Yingwu Courtyard. After you have made arrangements, you must remember to come to me." Seeing the steward coming to greet Qin Ziling, Qin Xingbao said to Qin Ziling.
Once the children of other tribes are rated as B-level, the Wuzhou Qin family will prepare a house for them in the Qin Mansion as a residence for them to practice life in Wuzhou.
The courtyards composed of these houses are named "Kongwu Courtyard", "Yingwu Courtyard" and "Weiwu Courtyard" respectively.
The three major courtyards correspond to the second-class, first-class and key disciples. As for the core disciples, they usually directly own a large house with an independent name.
Qin Xingbao broke through and became a great bone refining martial artist at the age of twenty-nine. He was rated as a first-class disciple by the Wuzhou Qin family, so he had his own house in the Qin family.
"I will go find you." Qin Ziling smiled and nodded.
Qin Ziling quite liked this talkative and chivalrous nephew.
Qin Ziling rode a clouded leopard horse and drove along a straight and spacious road with the carriage until they arrived at a large house covering an area of 100 acres.
Qin Ziling got off his horse and followed the steward through the winding corridors and gardens before arriving at a courtyard with a quiet environment and full of greenery.
"Wait a moment, I will go in and report." When they arrived at the entrance of the courtyard, the steward bowed and said.
"No need to report, come in." A majestic voice came from the yard.
So the steward took Qin Ziling in.
The purpose of entering is to lay out a quiet garden courtyard.
In the middle of the courtyard, under a big tree, a gray-haired old man was lying on a wicker chair, while a young woman gently rocked the chair for him.
Sitting next to the gray-haired old man was a man who looked to be in his fifties or sixties.
Sitting there casually, this man gave off the impression of a Yuan Ting Yue Zhi, and the energy and blood in his body was as surging as the sea, unfathomable.
As soon as Qin Ziling walked in, the man raised his head and looked at Qin Ziling.
Two sharp gazes shot out, like lightning and swords, as if they could penetrate people's souls and see them clearly from the outside to the inside.
At the same time, there was a majestic momentum pressing towards Qin Ziling like a mountain or a sea.
"Junior Qin Ziling has met great uncle and the head of the family." Qin Ziling bowed to the end and seemed not to be affected.
Before arriving at the courtyard, the steward had already told Qin Ziling that the identities of the two people in the courtyard were Qin Zaixin, the current head of the family, and Qin Longyuan, the father of the family.
"In the face of strong people, you are calm and composed without the slightest flinch or panic. It shows that you must be a person with a strong and calm mind. This cannot be achieved by eating the flesh and blood of strange animals or taking magical medicine.
Yes, it seems that you have reached the advanced stage of bone refining at the age of only twenty-six. It is definitely not a fluke or a mere chance. It has a lot to do with your own talent and character." The man with a majestic demeanor and surging energy and blood put away his body.
With a strong momentum, he nodded with approval.
"I don't dare to be the head of the family and praise you," Qin Ziling said again.
This majestic man is none other than Qin Zaixin, the current head of the Qin family, two generations senior to Qin Ziling.
"Child, come here and let me take a good look." At this time, the white-haired old man lying on the wicker chair slowly sat up, waved to Qin Ziling, and said.
"Yes." Qin Ziling replied respectfully, and then quickly approached the white-haired old man, who was Qin Longyuan.
Qin Longyuan is said to be in the realm of a young master of martial arts, but due to his old age, his energy and blood have been severely depleted, his face is full of wrinkles, and his eyes are a little cloudy.
After Qin Ziling approached, Qin Longyuan stared at Qin Ziling's face for a long time, and then said with emotion: "Your face shape is really similar to your great-great-grandfather. He was as handsome as you at that time. Speaking of which, this difference is eighty
Eight years. When people get older, it is easy to think of people and things in their youth.
I still remember that when I was a child, I liked to follow your great-great-grandfather. He was a generation older than me, but he was only five years older. At that time, my great-uncle was weak and I was often bullied by several brothers, all of whom were your great-grandfather.
Come forward to help me fight against injustice.
It's a pity that he has no cultivation talent and his nature is relatively strong. At that time, our lineage was just a side branch and his status in the Qin family was average. He had no cultivation talent. Naturally, the family could not spend efforts to cultivate him, so he chose to leave and stay far away.
Going to Xiyunzhou, I want to carve out a world on my own there.
I didn't expect that life and death would be separated by yin and yang. However, I'm going to meet him soon. God is still open to me and allows me to see you before I leave. When I get to the underground, I will just give you a high
Grandfather gave him good news, telling him that one of his descendants had an outstanding descendant."
"Father, this is fine, why are you saying these unlucky words?" Qin Zaixin said quickly.
"Yes, yes, great-uncle has a rosy face and surging energy and blood. He will definitely live a long life...a thousand years old." Qin Ziling echoed.
But when I talked about longevity, I suddenly thought that this great-granduncle was only five years younger than my great-great-grandfather, and should be over a hundred years old now, so I quickly changed my words.
"Haha, you kid, you have to say nice things. Unless we, the martial arts practitioners, can successfully refine our marrow, turn nature into nature, and extend our lives for hundreds of years in one fell swoop, even if we become great masters, we will live to be one hundred, fifty or sixty years old.
It's as good as the sky. Great uncle is already one hundred and two years old this year. Even though his body still looks very strong and he still has some strength left, he doesn't have a few years left in his life." Qin Longyuan said with an open-minded smile.
Then, Qin Longyuan took Qin Ziling to reminisce and chat about some past events between him and Qin Ziling's great-grandfather.
Then, Qin Longyuan seemed a little tired and ordered his servants to take Qin Ziling down.
"I like this kid Ziling better. Can you see if you can arrange a core disciple status for him?" After Qin Ziling went down, Qin Longyuan said to Qin Zaixin.
"I am in the late stage of bone refining at the age of twenty-six. This talent is indeed relatively high. But you also know that in order to cultivate Xingjun and several other descendants of our lineage, a lot of high-quality resources have been spent over the years.
Several other branches have already had their opinions." Qin Zaixin frowned.
"After all, they are still not willing to let you sit in this position. However, your cultivation as a master is indeed not enough to convince everyone. If your aunt hadn't supported you wholeheartedly, you wouldn't have been able to sit in the position of the head of the family twenty years ago.
But after all, your aunt is an external force. If our lineage wants to secure its position as the head of the family, we still have to rely on ourselves.
Moreover, your great-aunt has been stagnant in the realm of Grand Master for a long time, and it is estimated that she will try to induce thunder to temper the body in the next few years. If she succeeds, everything will be fine. If she fails, our Qin family may face internal and external troubles, so Xingjun and their
, no matter how those branches object, you have to increase your efforts to cultivate him. As for Zi Ling, you should try your best to see it." Qin Longyuan said.
