Zhou Xing and his wife were sitting in the restaurant, eating side dishes, listening to others talking about the big and small things in Xuanyuan City. Soon, the two of them also roughly understood some of the superficial relationships in this city.
"Brother, is this the Fang family?"
Zhou Xing nodded and then squinted his eyes and whispered: "Fang Yan...Fang Wenfa, that's interesting..."
Then Zhou Xing and Hui Yi went to Wanbao Tower in Xuanyuan City. They exchanged all the things they got at Baiduan Mountain into spiritual stones. However, most of those things were worthless, and all the things they exchanged were only about 20 yuan.
Just a spiritual stone.
In the afternoon, when Zhou Xing and the two were looking for an inn, a piece of news interested him.
"I heard that the Fang and Lin families are competing for the right to manage the city for the next year. The Fang family has invited a young master to help, but the Lin family is still feeling helpless because they can't recruit a master to help."
"Yes, it seems that the Lin family will lose the right to manage the city in the third year. If this continues, the Lin family will not be able to develop and will only become worse and worse than the Fang family."
Two busybodies were walking and gossiping about the Fang Lin family. At this time, someone else became interested in their topic.
"Hello brother, may I ask why the two families are still asking for help in their fight?"
"Brother, have you just come to Xuanyuan City? Let me tell you! The competition between these two families is divided into formation battle and martial arts competition. The formation battle is a competition between the two families, and the martial arts competition can involve people from the same family.
To help out; if you win both battles, you will be considered a winner. If you win one and lose the other, it will be two versus two battles between the battlers and the martial arts fighters. The winner will have the right to manage the city for the next year..."
Zhou Xing listened to the conversations of the people passing by, and he felt more and more that the Fang and Lin families were becoming more interesting, but these had nothing to do with him, so he just smiled and left.
At Fulai Inn, Zhou Xing and Hui Yi walked to the counter. Zhou Xing asked a shrewd-looking shopkeeper: "Shopkeeper, are there any spare rooms?"
"Oh! You two are objective, it's a coincidence that you came here. There are just two upper rooms left in the store. Do you want them?" When the shopkeeper saw Zhou Xing and the others dressed well and carrying a big ax, he was immediately attentive.
.
"Of course, give us two upper rooms." Zhou Xing agreed directly.
"Okay! Two distinguished guests, please come upstairs. Waiter..."
"Shopkeeper, bring me two upper rooms, hurry up!"
Just when the shopkeeper was about to call the waiter to take Zhou Xing and the others to the room, an extremely arrogant voice suddenly sounded, causing Zhou Xing and others to turn their attention to the speaker.
This is a fair and fat young man, and he is accompanied by two young men in white clothes carrying swords. It seems that he wants to open two rooms for these two young men in white clothes.
After the young man finished speaking, he led the two people directly towards the counter. When the shopkeeper saw it, he hurriedly walked from behind the counter and said with a flattering look on his face: "Hey! What brought Mr. Fang to our small shop?
coming?"
"Stop talking nonsense and get me two bedrooms quickly!" The young man was extremely arrogant and didn't take the shopkeeper's words to heart at all.
"this……"
"What? You dare not book a room?"
When the young man saw that the shopkeeper was hesitant, his voice suddenly became louder, as if he had lost face in front of the other two people.
Hearing this, the shopkeeper quickly replied: "Master Fang, how dare you! It's just...the last two remaining upper rooms have been objectively booked by these two people."
When the young man saw the shopkeeper pointing at Zhou Xing and the others with an embarrassed look on his face, he immediately turned his attention to Zhou Xing and the others: "Boy, hurry up and give me the room to this young master, and leave as soon as possible!"
Zhou Xing was speechless as he looked at this young man. Where did this second generation ancestor come from? He didn't take others seriously at all. Seeing that he was only at the first level of the Spirit Gathering Realm and yet still so arrogant, he knew he must be a kid from a rich family.
Zhou Xing also heard what the shopkeeper called him, and combined with the young man's attitude, he also had some guesses about the young man's identity.
After the young man finished speaking, he was about to go upstairs. He didn't take Zhou Xing and the two of them seriously at all, and he didn't care whether Zhou Xing agreed or not.
Hui Yi knew Zhou Xing's character. He just moved and blocked the way upstairs in an instant. The young man was very angry when he saw that the way in front of him was suddenly blocked by someone.
"What are you doing? You dare to block my way, do you want to die!" The young man pointed at Hui Yi's nose and yelled. Although Hui Yi was also very angry, he still looked at Zhou Xing and asked Zhou Xing what he wanted to do.
How to do.
Zhou Xing then said to the young man: "We booked the room first. If you want to stay in a hotel, then please go to another hotel!"
"you……"
The young man pointed at Zhou Xing and was speechless, but he suddenly rolled his eyes and turned around and walked to the two white-clothed young men he had brought with him.
"Brothers, you have also seen that these two boys don't want to leave the room. There is nothing I can do..."
The two young men in white didn't know what he meant when they heard this. They looked at each other and the young man on the left immediately walked out, raised his hands to Zhou Xing and said: "Brother, we are here because of the inn next to us."
It’s full, that’s why we came here to stay, please give us these two rooms.”
"I'm sorry, we don't want to look for another place, we won't let you!" Zhou Xing rejected the other party directly, and the faces of the two people became ugly.
However, a hint of smile flashed in the eyes of the arrogant young man next to him. At this time, the shopkeeper was about to say something, but the young man's glare scared him and he quickly backed away.
"snort!"
Facing Zhou Xing's refusal to give in, the young man in white on the right glared, snorted coldly, and then he showed off the aura of the seventh level of the Spirit Gathering Realm.
But before Zhou Xing could take action, the young man in white on the left also burst out with an aura at the seventh level of the Spirit Gathering Realm. The two of them obviously wanted to use force to force Zhou Xing and the two to agree.
They could all see that Zhou Xing, the two in gray, was at the fifth level of the Soul Gathering Realm, and Zhou Xing was at the sixth level of the Soul Gathering Realm, so in their opinion, the two would definitely compromise obediently after feeling their strength.
Unexpectedly, when Zhou Xing and the two felt these two momentums, their expressions did not change at all, and they did not even have the slightest intention to get out of the way.
"It seems that if you don't eat the toast, you will be fined with wine!"
The young man in white on the right finally couldn't bear it any longer. His right hand gathered spiritual power and struck directly at Zhou Xing with a palm. Seeing this, Zhou Xing hit him with a palm.
"Bang! Chi..."
Everyone saw that the young man in white changed his face as soon as he slapped Zhou Xing. Then he was directly hit by Zhou Xing's palm and retreated to the door of the inn before he stabilized his figure, leaving a long mark on the ground.
Long scratches.
"How can this be?"
This scene shocked the young man named Fang to widen his eyes. The shopkeeper and the young man who had not taken action also had expressions of disbelief.
"Junior brother, how are you?" The young man in white on the left reacted and quickly ran to the young man who took action. He began to check the latter's injuries.
"Senior brother, I'm fine, but he should hold back, otherwise I will be seriously injured even if I die from one of his palms!"
"How is that possible? He is just a boy at the sixth level of the Spirit Gathering Realm. Can he still match the talent of the senior brother?"
"This...is not impossible..."
After the two young men in white exchanged a few words in a low voice, they turned their attention to the young man next to them: "Master Fang, let's go to another house! Our senior brothers are no match for these two!"
The young man's face changed again and again, but in the end he breathed out a sigh of relief, and then looked at Zhou Xing: "Boy, my young master, Fang Wuji, of the Fang family, I have remembered what happened this time. How dare you put your
Do you want to keep your name?"
Zhou Xing heard the other party's registration, which almost proved his suspicion. However, he was not afraid of the Fang family. He walked upstairs with gray clothes, leaving only two sonorous and powerful words.
In everyone's ears.
"Zhou Xing!"
"Hahaha...Brother Zhou Xing is indeed a young genius! Lin Yu, I hope to make friends with Brother Zhou Xing."
Just as Zhou Xing and the others watched Fang Wuji and the others leave, a burst of hearty laughter came from upstairs, and then a young man in more gorgeous clothes slowly walked downstairs.
"Brother, thank you!" Zhou Xing smiled secretly in his heart when he heard this, and then he returned the favor with his hands in hand.
"Brother Zhou Xing is such a young genius. Lin Yu takes the liberty to ask, I wonder if you are that master's disciple?"
"I'm just a casual cultivator with no sect."
While the two were asking and answering, the shopkeeper came forward again and saluted the young man and said hello: "Mr. Lin."
"Well, the room charges for these two brothers should be on my head!"
Lin Yu said seemingly casually, but looking at Zhou Xing, he had some thoughts in his mind, but in the end he secretly shook his head.
"well……"
After Lin Yu finished speaking, before Zhou Xing could refuse, he turned and left with a depressed expression, leaving only a helpless sigh.
"Please come upstairs, you two!" At this time, the shopkeeper hurriedly came over and signaled Zhou Xing and the two to go upstairs. When Zhou Xing and Zhou Xing were brought to the front of the room by the shopkeeper, Zhou Xing stopped the shopkeeper.
"Shopkeeper, I would like to ask if Lin Yu belongs to the Lin family?"
"Yes! I don't know this objectively. Lin Yu is the only son of the head of the Lin family. He is very talented in practicing spiritual formations. However, he suffered some inexplicable injuries in the past two years and has not fully recovered until now. I guess he will not be able to compete in the formation this year.
I have no match for you." The shopkeeper replied in a low voice.
Zhou Xing was stunned, no wonder he felt something strange in the other party's body: "Isn't there still a fight?"
"Let alone martial arts, there are no outstanding geniuses in Xuanyuan City now, and the Fang family is looking for geniuses elsewhere, and the Lin family has no candidates for martial arts yet! I guess Mr. Lin is also looking for martial arts talents.
Be sad for those who fight!"
Only then did Zhou Xing understand how difficult the situation of the Lin family in Xuanyuan City was. From this point of view, the Lin family would lose again in this battle for city management rights. The Lin family would have no room for development in the next year, and it would be difficult for the Lin family to turn around in the future.
day.
However, Zhou Xing was just curious. He had nothing to do with the Lin family, and winning or losing had nothing to do with him.
Just as the shopkeeper turned to leave, he murmured to himself, which aroused Zhou Xing's interest: "Oh! I didn't expect that the Lin family even took out treasures like the Wind Spirit Pearl for the sake of fighting. I didn't know that this
Can we succeed this time..."
"Wind Spirit Pearl..."
In the room, Zhou Xing has been thinking about the wind spirit bead that the shopkeeper mentioned at the end. He only learned about this kind of treasure in the Continental Chronicles some time ago.
Wind Spirit Bead: A sixth-grade spiritual material. It allows wind attribute cultivators to speed up the practice and understanding of wind attribute spiritual skills. It can also nourish and enhance the wind attribute power for a long time.
"Boy, this Wind Spirit Bead is a rare good thing! There will be a lot of benefits after you get it." Ax Zu obviously knew what Zhou Xing was planning, and he immediately started to encourage Zhou Xing.
Zhou Xing was also very conflicted. He did not want to participate in the power dispute, but the next words of Ax Zu made him make up his mind.
"Boy, when you encounter an opportunity in the world of cultivation, you have to grab it. Only when you become stronger is the last word!"
As soon as Ax Zu said these words, Zhou Xing no longer had any worries. Just because the power of a small town made him hesitate, then he had underestimated himself too much.
The next day, Zhou Xing took Huiyi to the Lin family's location in Xuanyuan City. He stood outside the Lin family's door and looked at the desolate appearance of the Lin family, one of the two major families in the city. He also knew how declining the Lin family was today.
.
"Stop, why do you two come to the Lin family?"
The two of Zhou Xing were stopped outside the door by the generals of the Lin family. Zhou Xing smiled when he heard the words: "We are here to help the Lin family participate in the martial arts."
The family general was shocked, knowing that no one dared to fight for the Lin family now, but he still said politely: "Please wait a moment, I will go in and inform the family leader!"
After the general finished speaking, he hurriedly ran towards the Lin family. The man in gray clothes next to him suddenly asked, "Brother, are you here for the Wind Lingzhu?"
"Yes, but Fang Yan and Fang Wuji are also a bit unpleasant, and judging from the conversations among people in the city these two days, I think the Fang family must all have the same temperament, so they should just do good deeds!" Zhou Xingqing
Smile lightly.
As soon as Zhou Xing finished speaking, three people walked into the door of the Lin family. The first one was a middle-aged man with a melancholy expression, followed by the general. The other person next to him was Lin Yu, whom Zhou Xing and the two met yesterday.
"May I ask the names of these two little brothers? Where did they come from? Are they really here to help my Lin family in fighting?" The head of the Lin family originally had hopes in his eyes, but when he saw Zhou Xing and the others, his heart dropped.
Half of it, but he still politely handed it over and spoke.
"Let's go next week. This is my brother Huiyi. We saw the Lin family leader's recruitment conditions and came to join the war for the Lin family."
"Brother Zhou, are you coming to fight for the Lin family?"
Lin Yu was a little confused when he saw Zhou Xing and the two of them. Only then did he have the chance to say something.
The head of the Lin family was stunned when he heard this. The person he was in love with also knew Lin Yu: "Since we are acquaintances of Yu'er, let's invite the two of you!"
"Brother Zhou, please speak inside!"
Seeing that the head of the Lin family and Lin Yu both invited them in, Zhou Xing and Hui Yi also walked in first. At this time, the head of the Lin family looked at Lin Yu with deep meaning, but Lin Yu just shook his head secretly.
"You two little brothers, please sit down!"
After Zhou Xing and the two walked to the Lin family's living room, the head of the Lin family motioned for them to sit down, and the maid immediately poured tea.
"Master Lin, let me be blunt. I am here for the Wind Lingzhu."
"Brother Zhou, do you know that the Wind Lingzhu is prepared by my Lin family for those who participate in the martial arts fight for my Lin family? It can only be obtained after winning the martial arts fight."
