Chapter 555 The Lin Mansion Changes Owner, The Nine-story Demon Tower
Today's Xingyu City is destined to belong to the Xiao family, Xiao Xueyan and Li Jianfeng.
Their engagement ceremony today was grand and luxurious.
Wu Yun watched from a distance for a while, then went back to Wu's house.
The day came to an end in a hurry, and so did the proposal ceremony.
Everyone dispersed, leaving only Li Jianfeng staying at Xiao's house.
After that day, the Xiao family's popularity completely overshadowed that of the Wu family. Its reputation was not only limited to Xingyu City, but even families from many surrounding cities traveled thousands of miles to curry favor with the Xiao family.
The title of Li Jianfeng, the eighth outer sect of Feiyun Sect, is enough to make countless families fawn over him.
Two or three days passed peacefully. During these days, Wu Yun has been practicing in his room.
Three days later, Li Jianfeng had no choice but to end his intimate time with Xiao Xueyan early because the sect was recalled due to some matters.
After he left, there was such a thing spread outside.
It is said that Li Jianfeng gave Xiao Xueyan a bottle of spiritual nourishing spring water in order to help Xiao Xueyan break through from the tenth heaven to the realm of sea transformation.
It is rumored that there are some ancient spiritual energy deep in the center of the earth, and there are many springs from the center of the earth that lead to the outside world.
The spiritual energy nurtured in the heart of the earth is dispersed to the surface of the earth through these springs, turning into a clear spring.
A small bottle of spiritual nourishing spring water is already worth a fire cloud spiritual grass.
This shows how powerful its effect is.
But such a rare treasure is naturally very rare. Some people may search for it all their lives and never come across it once.
I don’t know where Li Jianfeng got this bottle of spiritual spring water.
This news came from the Xiao family, and no one doubted its authenticity.
After all, since Li Jianfeng left, no one has seen Xiao Xueyan in the Xiao family again.
It is said that she has entered a state of seclusion and is preparing to break through to the Sea Transformation Realm before the Xingyu City Competition in a month, causing a complete sensation in the city and attracting the attention of the top brass of the Imperial Capital.
If she succeeds, it may really shock the Yunyue Empire.
A seventeen-year-old strong man in the sea transformation realm is probably countless times more precious to their Yunyue Empire than a rare elixir.
Today, there are still more than twenty days until the Xingyu City Tournament.
Wu Yun's cultivation level is still at the eighth level.
The news that Xiao Xueyan went into seclusion to attack the sea-changing realm really made Wu Yun worried.
He originally thought that as long as he snatched away the Fire Cloud Spirit Grass, Xiao Xueyan would not be able to attack the Sea Transformation Realm in a short period of time.
But who would have expected that Li Jianfeng would show up halfway, and he would gift Xiao Xueyan such precious spiritual items as the spirit-nurturing spring water.
For Wu Yun today, this is a huge challenge.
If Xiao Xueyan stays in the tenth heaven realm, maybe Wu Yun can still find a way to beat her in the competition.
And if Xiao Xueyan breaks through to the Sea Transformation Realm, Wu Yun has no confidence in defeating her.
Once he loses, it won't just be him, Wu Yun, but the entire Wu family will probably get involved.
However, things have already happened. Wu Yun can only motivate himself and accelerate his cultivation. He cannot estimate the development of the situation.
Nowadays, the Fortune Pill has no effect. I have been practicing quietly in my room for a few days. Although my cultivation has improved somewhat, there is no sign of breakthrough.
Days always pass by so fast, and in the blink of an eye, more than half of this month has passed.
There are less than ten days left before the Xingyu City Tournament.
This day was as peaceful as usual.
But the news that came out from more than one person completely shocked the entire Xingyu City.
"Breakthrough, breakthrough, Xiao Xueyan has broken through the Sea Transformation Realm. Our Xingyu City has welcomed the first seventeen-year-old Sea Transformation Realm powerhouse in history. Even if we look at the entire Yunyue Empire, there are probably very few people who can."
Beat this record."
Such a piece of news directly detonated the entire Xingyu City.
Regarding this news, the most shocked person was undoubtedly the Wu family.
After confirmation, this news is absolutely true.
The bet was about to be fulfilled, Wu Yun had not made any move, but Xiao Xueyan made breakthroughs one after another, and even reached the realm of sea transformation.
I would like to ask the entire Xingyu City, not to mention the younger generation, including old guys like them, who else is Xiao Xueyan’s opponent?
At this moment, the top management of the Wu family held an emergency meeting to discuss matters regarding the competition in a few days.
Except for Wu Tian and Wu Zhan, everyone else raised their hands and voted to go to the Xiao family to seek peace. Even if they were their lackeys, it would be better than being expelled from Xingyu City.
Of course, Wu Tian, the dignified head of the Wu family, is so courageous that he will not settle for anything less than compromise.
Not just the Wu family, the entire Xingyu City is discussing that this time, the Wu family may be completely removed from Xingyu City.
As for that good-for-nothing Wu Yun, if it weren't for this incident, everyone would have forgotten his existence long ago.
No one would think that Wu Yun had the strength to challenge Xiao Xueyan. Not to mention outsiders like them, even the Wu family themselves did not place their hopes on Wu Yun.
Even Wu Tian, his closest father, didn't hold out much hope.
Although he knew that his son had recovered his Dantian and had made quite a breakthrough some time ago, he was still far behind Xiao Xueyan, who was so powerful that she broke through to the Sea Transformation Realm in one fell swoop.
When he heard the news, even Wu Yun himself was shocked.
He is aware of his current strength and eighth-level cultivation.
Although he might be able to defeat a ninth-level cultivator with the Supreme Martial God Art and golden beads in his body, there was nothing he could do against Xiao Xueyan who was in the Sea Transformation Realm.
The news that Xiao Xueyan had broken through to the Sea Transformation Realm spread quickly.
One day later, there were even rumors that the monarch of the Yunyue Empire finally couldn't bear it and wanted to come to Xingyu City to meet this shocking female genius.
The peerless genius who reached the eighth level of heaven at the age of fifteen and the realm of sea transformation at the age of seventeen was enough to alarm the emperor of the empire.
Wu Yun felt inexplicably anxious, but he was helpless. If he wanted to break through, he would need many elixirs to support him.
But he didn't want to drag his father down because of this, and now that there were only a few days left, it was too late to find the elixir.
On the second day, as rumored, a mighty team, riding ferocious-looking monsters, majestically appeared outside Xingyu City.
It turns out that the emperor of the empire himself came with his troops to congratulate him.
The monarch of the Yunyue Empire is a middle-aged man in his forties or fifties, wearing a yellow robe with a vivid five-clawed golden dragon embroidered with gold thread.
A unique temperament belonging to those in power is undoubtedly revealed in him.
The arrival of the monarch made this small Xingyu City shine, and people from many surrounding cities traveled thousands of miles to watch the excitement.
Because of Xiao Xueyan, the entire Xingyu City was packed to the brim for a while.
The name Xiao Xueyan was deeply imprinted in their hearts.
This peerless female prodigy reached the realm of sea transformation at the age of seventeen.
The emperor of the empire praised Xiao Xueyan in front of everyone and took the initiative to extend an olive branch to her.
As long as Xiao Xueyan agrees, she can directly go to the Imperial Palace to serve as an elder.
The Imperial Palace is the residence of the supreme ruler of the Yunyue Empire. In terms of power, being an elder of the Imperial Palace is even more attractive than the Feiyun Sect.
Naturally, Xiao Xueyan would not refuse such a request that would benefit the family's long-term development.
At the same time, the news quickly spread throughout Xingyu City, and even the entire Yunyue Empire.
For a time, the people in the empire were almost crazy. If it weren't for the distance, they would even be eager to come and see what kind of person this woman who reached the sea-forming realm at the age of seventeen was.
Let the monarch personally come to the door and give him the position of elder in the palace.
A seventeen-year-old imperial elder, this is unprecedented, the first in the history of the Yunyue Empire.
Suddenly, the name Xiao Xueyan was like a heat wave that quickly swept through the entire Yunyue Empire.
Although Xiao Xueyan has not yet gone to the imperial capital to take up the position of elder, the effect brought about by this is enough to increase the status of the Xiao family infinitely.
Overnight, from a relatively unremarkable family in Xingyu City, they became relatives of the emperor.
It can be seen that a person in power can change the fate of a person or even a family with just one sentence, and there is nothing false about it.
Then, when the monarch learned that a city-wide competition would be held in Xingyu City in a few days, he became interested and decided to watch the competition before leaving.
He wanted to witness with his own eyes Xiao Xueyan's heroic appearance in the competition arena.
At this moment, the Wu family was completely panicked.
Xiao Xueyan has become the elder of the King's Palace, and the Xiao family members have become relatives of the emperor. Now it seems that the Wu family has really reached a point of desperation.
