"Huh? Master, why are you back so early today? Didn't you go to the Martial Palace?"
The little slave was washing clothes in the yard. When he heard the footsteps, he looked back. His big eyes immediately turned into crescent moons, and he got up and walked towards Jiang Yi.
Jiang Yi touched Xiaonu's little head, nodded and said: "Xiaonu, please come in and let me talk to you about business."
Feeling the heaviness in Jiang Yi's heart, Jiang Xiaonu's smile froze, and he hurriedly followed Jiang Yi towards the back room, gave Jiang Yi a glass of water, and then asked with wide eyes: "Master, what happened?"
Jiang Yi pursed his lips, forced a smile, and said: "It's nothing serious. Wu Dian sent me to perform a secret mission. I may have to be away for three months. I'm a little worried about you being alone at home."
Jiang Xiaonu patted his chest, grinned and said: "I thought it was some big event. Master, go ahead. Xiaonu will be fine, I can take care of myself! Master, I will often do big things in the future. I will always do it."
He's out."
"event!"
Jiang Yi shook his head and smiled bitterly. He never had great ambitions, nor did he want to do big things. He just wanted to live a small life in peace with his little slave. However, fate always played tricks on him? At this moment, he was suffering from internal and external troubles, both inside and outside the family.
Someone wanted to kill him. In order to live a stable and happy life, he could only practice hard and fight hard...
"Right!"
Jiang Yi suddenly thought of something, took out a token from his arms and handed it to Jiang Xiaonu: "Xiaonu, what do you think this is?"
"Ah? Token!" Jiang Xiaonu was surprised when he saw it, and shouted happily: "Master, have you redeemed the token? How did you get the twelve taels of purple gold?"
"Given by Wu Dian!"
Jiang Yi took out a purple gold leaf from his arms and handed it to Jiang Xiaonu: "Take this gold leaf. You must take good care of yourself during the three months I am not here. Remember one thing - never leave the Jiang family compound."
, although Fengyue Tower won’t cause trouble on the surface, things will inevitably happen if you go out and wander around. No one can hurt you in the compound. If someone asks you where I have been, just say that I have been away for three months, but you can’t.
You said I went to the Martial Palace to do some work, you know?"
"Yeah!" Jiang Xiaonu nodded heavily after receiving the golden leaf, and grinned again, showing two cute little tiger teeth: "Don't worry, young master, I won't leave the compound."
Jiang Yi was slightly relieved. The Jiang family was very strict about rules, and the rule of not causing harm to the family was especially important. Even if Jiang Ruhu wanted to trouble him, he would not embarrass Jiang Xiaonu. Otherwise, if the family knew about it, the matter would be serious.
Touching Xiaonu's head again, Jiang Yi stood up and said, "Okay, I'll go talk to Manager Rong first, Xiaonu, wait for me when I come back."
Jiang Xiaonu smiled and nodded, without showing any trace of reluctance. He just said with concern: "Master, you must be careful. I will make dumplings for you when you come back."
Jiang Yi turned around, closed his eyes in pain, and strode outside without looking back at Xiaonu, because...he was afraid that if he took one more look, he would be reluctant to leave.
"Come on, Master!"
Jiang Xiaonu chased him out and stood at the courtyard gate watching Jiang Yi leave, waving his hands constantly with a sweet smile on his face.
When Jiang Yi's figure disappeared into the alley in the distance, Jiang Xiaonu suddenly stopped waving, and the smile on her face instantly solidified. Two lines of clear tears left silently in her eyes. She watched Jiang Yi leave.
direction, and murmured softly: "Master, although I don't know what happened, I know something big must have happened, otherwise you would not abandon me! Master, don't worry about me, just go ahead and do it."
Whatever you want to do, my little slave will be waiting for you at home. If...you die, my little slave will definitely not live alone. If you go to the underworld, my little slave will still be your maid."
…
"What? You don't work anymore? You have to go out for three months?"
In the steward's room, Steward Rong became furious after hearing Jiang Yi's words. He slapped the table and stood up to scold him, but before he could say anything, he was attracted by two gold leaves handed over to him.
Looking at Steward Rong who put the gold leaves into his sleeves without leaving any trace, a trace of disgust flashed through Jiang Yi's heart. He said in a deep voice: "Steward, this is to honor you! This time I went to the mountains with a few adventurers to collect medicine.
, if I can get good things this time and show my filial piety when I come back, please... take care of the family."
"Collecting medicine?"
Manager Rong's expression suddenly softened, and he patted Jiang Yi's shoulder affectionately and said, "Okay, Jiang Yi, you've got your wits about you. As a young man, it's always a good thing to go out and get some experience, but you have to pay attention to your safety.
You must return to the family within three months, otherwise the higher-ups will investigate you and find you a traitor, which will be troublesome..."
Jiang Yi nodded. If it weren't for this, how could he be willing to give two gold leaves to Steward Rong? The Jiang family has strict rules. Leaving the clan without permission will be treated as treason. If Jiang Yi died,
It's easier to say outside. If he is convicted and the children of the Jiang family see him, he has the right to kill him on the spot.
Promising again and again that he would definitely come back within three months, Jiang Yi said goodbye to Manager Rong and quickly went out from the Jiang Family South Courtyard. As soon as he walked out of the Jiang Family Gate, he immediately put on his cloak and walked quickly towards the Martial Palace.
Less than half an hour later, he arrived at Wudian safely. On the way, he circulated a trace of Yuan Power in his ears and walked through alleys to make sure no one was following him.
When Manager Yang heard that Jiang Yi was going to be in seclusion in the Martial Palace for three months and not go anywhere, not only was he not dissatisfied at all, but he generously waived Jiang Yi's room and board expenses. Jiang Yi could practice hard here and be promoted to the Ding-casting realm as soon as possible.
At the fourth level, a gold medal sparring partner can be quickly added to the martial arts hall, which can also earn them more money. You must know that when fighting with a sparring partner in the martial arts hall, the gold medal sparring partner is charged per game...
Jiang Yi lives in a small room in the main hall of the training room. Except for one battle with Yi Lingxue every day, he spends the rest of the time practicing in seclusion in his room. Manager Yang doesn't even let him sit in the main hall.
, for fear that other young ladies would ask Jiang Yi to train with him, which would delay his cultivation time.
This Yi Lingxue is also very strange. She comes to the practice room every afternoon and asks Manager Yang to call Jiang Yi out for a duel. Although she loses every time during the sparring, she never tires of it, letting the sparring partners in the martial arts hall and Yang
The stewards were very suspicious. Could it be that she had a crush on Jiang Yi?
"Huh... let's stop fighting. Canglang, you are getting more and more perverted. You seem to be at the third level of the Cauldron Realm, right? Why are you practicing so fast? Since you are so fast, why are you only at the second level of the Cauldron Realm now?
"
On the thirteenth day of retreat in the Martial Hall, Jiang Yi fought with Yi Lingxue for half an hour as usual. This time, Yi Lingxue did not leave in a hurry to change clothes, but instead asked curiously.
"Haha, I didn't like to practice before, and the speed of practice has accelerated in this Martial Palace. The Martial Palace also provides spiritual pills..."
Jiang Yi casually explained that he had been practicing day and night for more than ten days, and nearly a hundred of the runes in the seal had been dissolved again, and his training speed continued to increase. In addition, Yang Guanshi provided unlimited spiritual pills.
, can his cultivation speed not be fast? According to his estimation, it should take at most three to five days to break through the third level of the Cauldron-Forging Realm.
Yi Lingxue adjusted her fiery red warrior robe and sighed: "What a pity... If you had practiced hard earlier, maybe you would be among the top ten geniuses in Tianyu City."
"Top ten geniuses? Which ten?" Jiang Yi asked curiously.
"You don't even know this?" Yi Lingxue rolled her eyes at Jiang Yi. The charming look in her eyebrows and eyes, combined with her hot and delicate body, which was dripping with sweat and her robe clinging to her flesh, made Jiang Yi feel hot all over.
Yi Lingxue paused to explain: "The second son of the Ji family, Ji Changge, the third young lady Ji Tingyu, the eldest son of the Ma family, Ma Heiqi, the eldest son of the Jiang family, Jiang Henshui, the young master of the Jiang family, Jiang Rulong, the eldest son of the Leng family,
Young master Leng Qianjun, the fourth young lady of the Leng family Leng Qianqian, the third young lady of the Liu family Liu He, the young master Liu Zhan of the Liu family, and the eldest young man of the Yang family Yang Zhongtian. These ten people are all under the age of eighteen, and their lowest strength is the seventh level of the Forging Cauldron Realm.
, known as the top ten geniuses of Tianyu City of this generation."
No one in the Jiang family wanted to see Jiang Yi, and he seldom talked to outsiders, so he didn't know much about these gossips. At this moment, he nodded secretly. There are two people in the Jiang family on the list, and Ji Tingyu is also on the list.
The strength of these people is indeed abnormal. Jiang Henshui and Ji Tingyu are both strong men at the eighth level of the Cauldron Realm. As long as they break through one more level, they can hit the Zifu Realm.
However, he didn't care about these. Those young ladies were too far away from his life, and he didn't want to have anything to do with them. He looked at Yi Lingxue and said: "Miss Yi is not bad. During this period, I feel that your fighting ability is
It’s a rapid improvement. All your martial arts are perfect, right? Your realm is about to be upgraded to the fifth level of the Cauldron-Forging Realm, right?”
"hehe!"
Speaking of this, Yi Lingxue's face became excited, she clenched her little fists and said with a smile: "Canglang, to tell you the truth, these are actually your contribution. I know what my talent is. I understand martial arts very slowly. If it weren't for
You...how did I reach the mastery of these ten kinds of martial arts so quickly? This is actually the reason why I stayed here today!"
"Because of me?"
Jiang Yi's eyes were full of astonishment. He could help others quickly improve their martial arts skills by sparring with them? Is there such a wicked thing in this world? However...it seems that Miss Yi's recent progress in martial arts skills is a bit exaggerated, right? Is it really because of him?
"Wolf!"
When Jiang Yi was confused, Yi Lingxue solemnly took out a token from her arms and said: "I, Yi Lingxue, on behalf of the Yi family, formally invite you to join the Yi family. The position is the deputy elder of Wutang, the salary and benefits...
…”
"Wait! Vice elder of Wutang?"
Jiang Yi was completely confused. He, a boy under the age of sixteen, actually went to the Yi family to become an elder? Was this Yi Lingxue just teasing him, or was the head of the Yi family out of his mind? He was stunned for a moment, then asked in surprise
Said: "Miss Yi, are you kidding?"
Yi Lingxue looked serious, raised the token in her hand and said: "This is my father's token, and I'm not kidding, Canglang... maybe you don't know it yourself, but you have a very strange ability.
Help warriors master their martial arts skills quickly. Our Yi family values this very much and recruits you. You don’t have to do anything when you go to the Yi family. You just need to practice with the family members every day and help them master their martial arts skills quickly..."
"Is there really something so evil? Is it because of the black energy?"
Jiang Yi was shocked and lowered his head in silence. It was definitely impossible to go to the Yi family. If he didn't say that he had an agreement with Wu Dian, he would still die even if the Jiang family found out. This would be treason.
Seeing Jiang Yi's silence, Yi Lingxue became a little anxious. She walked a few steps forward and got three feet away from Jiang Yi. Then she bit her lips and said, "Cang Lang, you can ask for any treatment you want, and I can tell you."
My father. It’s not a problem if you are a child of another family. You can marry into our Yi family. I have a cousin who is more beautiful than me..."
