The sky is getting dark and the evening breeze is gentle.
Xuan Ye looked at Fuliu outside the window and put down the "Tian Yuan Gong" in his hand.
"Half a year has passed, and I still haven't made much progress in my cultivation. It's time for the third elder to punish me. I haven't found out anything about my parents..."
He picked up the pen on the table, felt the faint coolness on the sapphire penholder, and tried to inject spiritual energy into it.
The pen began to glow faintly, and as Xuan Ye's hand slowly drew a word "broken" in the air. The word "broken" emitted a faint light, and you could feel a lot of power from it.
Xuan Ye was slightly happy, and just when he thought he was about to succeed, the broken characters suddenly collapsed and turned into wisps of blue mist.
"Failed, failed again, tried the Po Zi Jue thousands of times, why still failed?"
Xuan Ye thought to himself, and cast his eyes on "Tian Yuan Gong" again, with doubt in his eyes. But he quickly abandoned his thoughts and shook his head.
""Tian Yuan Gong" was given to me by the third elder. There is no way it could be wrong and it doesn't run smoothly. There must be reasons that I haven't discovered."
While Xuan Ye was thinking, laughter came from the young man who was half hiding at the door. After being noticed, he stepped into the room generously and said coldly: "Xuan Ye, Brother Xuan Qing is looking for you."
Xuan Ye looked at the person who sent the message. Xuan Ze, a branch of the Xuan family, had always acted as the lackey of Xuan Qing, the direct descendant of the Xuan family, and had never dealt with him.
"I know, I'll go right away."
Xuan Ye put away the "Tian Yuan Gong" and put a delicate ring jade pendant on the table into his arms. This was the only object left by his parents. It looked very mysterious, but he didn't know what it was used for.
He followed Xuanze out of the room and walked from the corridor to the climbing ladder in the back garden. He couldn't help but frown, with doubt in his eyes. "Isn't this the way to Tianlangya? Are you sure Xuanqing is on it?"
Xuanze nodded and squeaked impatiently: "Just leave, how about I lie to you?"
Xuan Ye thought about it. The Xuan family was built on the mountain. Although it was moved here a hundred years ago, it was thanks to the spiritual energy of this place that it was able to prosper. Tianlangya was also a place they often visited when they were children.
Only three years ago, there was a night ban in the back mountain. It was said that wild animals were infested, so the younger generation could not get close to it.
This Xuan Qing is the second son in the direct line and is very prestigious among the younger generation. Xuan Ye dare not not listen to his summons.
"Xuanze, do you know what Xuan Qing wants from me?"
Xuanze paused slightly, and the smile on his face was a little stiff, but he still answered quickly. "Isn't Bi Ling Sect coming to recruit disciples in half a month? Our Xuan family is also one of the top three big families in Shanyin City, so we will naturally be taken care of.
.Your talent is recognized as the best among the clan, so I naturally want to discuss this with you."
After hearing this, Xuan Ye lowered his head in shame and couldn't help but smile bitterly. He was probably the only one of the younger generation who hadn't learned the Po Zi Jue. How could he be said to be the most talented?
"Don't be discouraged. Maybe it's because of your talent that you can master the basic skills of Po Zi Jue."
When Xuanze said this, he didn't blush or feel ashamed, and completely forgot about his sneer at the door just now.
This abnormal appearance also made Xuan Ye feel abnormal. Looking at the dark mountain road, he couldn't help but feel a little uneasy.
After a while, the two came to Tianlangya. It was summer night and it was a good time to gaze at the stars. Therefore, the stargazing platform in Tianlangya was built.
Xuan Ye saw a man standing in front of the railing from a distance, with his hands behind his back, admiring the starry sky. When he came closer, the man turned around and looked at him with a smile on his face, which made him feel a little confused.
Not adaptable.
"Xuan Ye, have you heard? Bi Ling Sect is coming to our Shanyin City to recruit disciples. This is a grand event that happens once every ten years. You can't miss it!"
Xuan Ye frowned slightly, nodded and said, "I heard Xuan Ze talk about it on the way."
"How are you doing with your Po Zi Jue? The elders have high hopes for you and asked me to ask you a question." Xuan Qing was still smiling, making it difficult to tell what was in his heart.
Xuan Ye felt strange. Since he had not made any progress in practicing "Tian Yuan Gong", the elders did not want to see him. Even the third elder in charge of the technique always looked at him with cold eyes. Why did he have high hopes?
"Still in the Qi condensation stage..."
After hearing the answer, Xuan Qing smiled even deeper, walked up to Xuan Ye, patted his shoulder and sighed.
"There's no rush. Since you haven't matured yet, I'll tell the elders that you will wait another ten years. Anyway, you still have a few months to turn twenty. Bi Lingzong is eligible to run for election until he is thirty-five.
.”
Xuan Ye was stunned for a moment. He had noticed something in his heart, but it was hard to figure it out.
"What? You still want to participate?" Xuan Qing's expression changed suddenly, his voice turned from gentle to harsh, and his hand had quietly been placed on the long green and red pen on his waist.
Xuan Ye naturally did not miss the hand on his waist, but he thought that Xuan Qing did not dare to take action because he was in the family. Although his parents were not here, he was also a direct relative of the Xuan family.
Seeing Xuan Ye's defensiveness, Xuan Qing suddenly burst into laughter. In the dark night, his laughter made people panic.
"Silly brother, are you afraid that your elder brother will harm you?"
As soon as he finished speaking, a ray of green light emitted from Xuan Qing's body. The green light instantly gathered and turned into a broken character! It was the breaking character technique that Xuan Ye had not been able to practice for a long time!
Before Xuan Ye could react, he was hit with a broken character on his body. The clothes on his chest were torn instantly, and even a red mark with a broken character was pressed on his chest.
The qi and blood in his body were stirring like boiling hot water. His throat felt sweet, and a mouthful of blood-red blood spurted out.
After he landed, his eyes became increasingly fierce, but he couldn't understand, how could Xuan Qing dare to go against his family's motto and attack his own clan?
"Silly boy, it's such a pity that I can't let you participate in the Bi Ling Sect's trial training."
As Xuan Qing spoke, the long green-red pen in his hand floated faintly in front of him, and the blue light dyed the pen and moved like a spiritual snake.
"Wandering Spirit Art!" Xuan Ye squeezed out a few words from clenched teeth, but his heart was dead. Being able to control the Wandering Spirit Art proved that Xuan Qing had broken through Qi Condensation and was one level higher than them, even if
Even if you fight to the death, you are no match.
"I didn't expect you, a loser, to know the Wandering Spirit Art." After Xuan Qing finished speaking, his face gradually distorted and he began to smile ferociously.
"That's right. You are recognized by the elders as having outstanding talent. Unfortunately, it has been seven years and you are still at the Qi Condensation stage. Do you want to know why? Think about it carefully. Who gave you the "Tian Yuan Gong"?"
Xuan Ye's heart sank, and he clenched his fists tightly. Anger surged from the bottom of his heart, and his body trembled with anger. He gritted his teeth and said, "It's you!"
"That's right, you idiot! No matter how talented you are, you haven't even suspected that there is a problem with the technique for so many years. Even a pig should have discovered it long ago!"
Faced with the ridicule, the anger in Xuan Ye's heart burned even more intensely. Over the years, it was not that he had never doubted him, but he was from the same clan, so he did not dare to cast suspicion on his nominal second brother!
He was wrong, completely wrong, especially the indifference of the clan in the past year, which made him extremely disappointed with this fake family affection!
"Hahaha... Qingluozi, you can even scheme against a pig, so what do you think?" Xuan Ye laughed so wildly that his veins popped out!
Qing Lengzi came from the mouth of the elders, and the Xuan family's children would also call it in private. It has always been a pain point in Xuan Qing's heart.
Xuan Ye's eyes suddenly turned cold when he saw him, but he was not afraid, his face was full of sarcasm.
But the next moment, he was knocked away by a stronger pen force and slammed into the railing. He vomited blood again, and this time he didn't even have the strength to get up.
Xuan Qing ran up excitedly and kicked the dying Xuan Ye a few more times. Then he calmed down as if to vent his anger and said with a smile: "Okay, okay! Now that the matter is over, I'll tell you everything. Originally, if you didn't want to participate in the pen
There is no need to kill you for the Lingzong trial training."
Xuan Ye shuddered violently. Is this nominal second brother really going to kill him? The last hope in his heart was extinguished, but he didn't want to surrender. As soon as he could stand up a little, he was stepped on the head and pushed down.
"Don't worry, I've been holding it in for so many years, let me finally say it!" Xuan Qing said, kicking him a few more times. Seeing that Xuan Ye stopped moving, he lifted him up and took out the ring from his arms.
Jade pendant.
Xuan Ye wanted to resist, but several bones in his body had been broken, and he was not even conscious enough to raise his hand to grab it. Now, he was like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered, and could only listen to Xuan Qing's words.
"Ever since you failed to practice "Tian Yuan Gong" for the first time, for so many years, every detail has been arranged by me, not to mention poisoning the food and instigating everyone to exclude you."
"What's more important is that the Bi Ling Sect wants to be immortal and needs to test their talents. When the time comes, I will secretly change my skills and target you everywhere. Those old people in the clan are so cruel. If you don't die, you will die."
It will be me!"
"Why?" Xuan Ye still can't figure it out. After coming to the Xuan family, he has never taken the initiative to make grudges with others. He still has the same blood flowing in his body. Why should he target him?
Looking at Xuan Ye's sad expression, Xuan Qing felt even happier in her heart, and said coldly: "Because you are the third uncle and a pariah, the offspring of a secret marriage, and you are not worthy of staying in the Xuan family!"
Xuan Ye thought about when he was seven years old, his parents left him in the Xuan family, and then disappeared. People in the clan pointed fingers at him behind his back. Was this the reason?
"What's hateful is that the elders of the clan think that you have outstanding talents and will definitely shine in the future, and they want to cultivate you carefully! Why? You are half a pariah, and you still want to be the leader of the Xuan family? Fart!
"
Xuan Ye's anger reached its peak. Although he didn't have much memory, he knew that his mother was a warm person since he was a child. It was okay to humiliate him, but humiliate his mother? Then this is the bottom line!
"Your mother is a pariah! Try saying it again!"
He spat a mouthful of blood on Xuan Qing's face, and while the other person was blinded by the blood, he bit his palm hard. Until he heard a scream, his body was thrown away again, and he didn't know what hard object he hit, and he almost died.
Passed out.
"You are looking for death!"
When Xuan Ye regained consciousness again, he found that he was lifted up in the air, with a pitch-black abyss beneath his feet.
He knew he was going to die, and he saw through it, but he couldn't spare this beast so easily. He quickly thought of a plan in his mind and sneered: "Young fool, I will turn into a ghost and haunt you. Every night, remember
Light the bedside lamp!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xuan Ye felt his grip on the collar loosen, and his body fell sharply. The wind whistled in his ears, and the unwillingness and resentment in his heart sank to the bottom along with his body.
Xuan Qing looked at the figure disappearing under the abyss. The breath in his chest had not yet calmed down. When he turned around, he saw Xuan Ze sitting on the ground with a pale face, walking past him indifferently.
"If a third person knows about it, your end will be worse than him!"
When Xuan Ze heard this, he could only respond repeatedly. When he looked at Xuan Qing again, his face was filled with awe.
