"Hui Yu, are you confident that you can defeat Yun Xiao in a head-on battle?"
Shang Huiyu, who was in high spirits, suddenly heard his grandfather's question. His expression froze, and his original excitement suddenly dropped, and his face became a little bitter.
Before today, Shang Huiyu probably had never regarded Yun Xiao as his opponent. Even if he tempted Xue Qi to betray Yun Xiao's mother and son, he had never personally taken action.
But Yun Xiao, who came out of the Snake Nest alive, seemed to be a different person. In that remote courtyard, Shang Huiyu did not take any advantage. Later, in the Zhengqi Hall, he was even beaten by Yun Xiao with one move.
I broke my wrist.
Even Shang Huiyu himself doesn't believe such a record is reliable, but until now he still doesn't understand why Yun Xiao can beat the middle stage of the Pulse Qi Jin stage when he only has the Pulse Qi cultivation in the late stage of Pulse Qi Jin.
of myself?
Even if Shang Huiyu was unwilling to give in, he couldn't help but feel a little frightened when he thought of Yun Xiao's ghost-like methods. It seemed that Yun Xiao's two attacks had shaken him out of his heart.
Moreover, Shang Huiyu also had some vague guesses, perhaps the methods he saw of Yun Xiao were not all of his strength, so after his father asked him, he remained sullen and did not respond for a long time.
"Hui Yu, do you know why Yun Xiao suddenly improved in strength?"
Shang Ying actually has some doubts in her heart. It stands to reason that Shang Li and her son have been living in a remote courtyard for these years. The exercises or pulse skills they practice are all at the lowest level, and there is no resource supply. How could they suddenly
Coming up?
Hearing his grandfather's question, Shang Huiyu suddenly remembered something and said: "Grandpa, according to my guess, that boy Yun Xiao must have obtained some treasure in the snake nest, and then he has those weird methods. This treasure, said
Maybe it will be of great use to all my businesses!”
Shang Huiyu is not a complete idiot. Now he has a psychological shadow on Yun Xiao, but he knows that no matter how strong Yun Xiao is, he can't be stronger than his grandfather. If he uses some means to get the "treasure"
Come on, then he can be as tyrannical as Yun Xiao.
"Snake nest, treasure?" Shang Ying obviously didn't know much about this matter. As the eldest grandson of the merchant's family, how could he take care of the fight between the children, so he didn't learn about it from his grandson until now.
.
"You mean, Yun Xiao didn't die after entering the snake nest, and came out alive?" Shang Ying's face was a little solemn, and he asked this most critical question first.
"Yes, grandfather, that boy stayed in the snake nest for a whole month, and his strength improved greatly after he came out!" Shang Huiyu nodded. In his heart, he never forgot about that treasure.
"This... doesn't make sense!" Shang Ying was obviously deep in thought. There seemed to be one thing that he couldn't figure out. Even though the snake nest was within the merchant's headquarters, even the owner of the merchant, Shang Yan, didn't dare to
Half a step in, let alone a young boy like Yun Xiao.
"Grandpa, the top priority is to snatch the treasure that Yun Xiao got from the snake's nest. In this case, I am absolutely sure to get the place as an outer disciple of the Yuhu Sect!" Shang Huiyu didn't have so many ideas.
I always thought that I would be defeated by Yun Xiao just because the latter had a unique treasure.
"No, you can't attack Yun Xiao just yet!"
Unexpectedly, just when Shang Huiyu finished speaking and Shang Ying had not yet opened his mouth, a slightly old and familiar voice came from outside the courtyard gate, which shocked both his grandfather and grandson.
.
However, when the two of them looked back, they were relieved. It turned out that the person who came was none other than Shang Yan, the current owner of the merchant family. It is worth mentioning that behind Shang Yan, there was also an old man with a white beard who looked equally old.
, that slightly arrogant figure stood upright, but said nothing.
"Father!"
"I've met the head of the family!"
Neither Shang Ying nor Shang Huiyu dared to neglect the business owner. They bowed respectfully, and then Shang Ying said directly: "Father, if we don't use some tricks, I'm afraid Huiyu is no match for that boy Yunxiao!"
After all, Shang Ying didn't want to give up her position as an outer disciple of the Yuhu Sect to Yun Xiao, but during the daytime battle in the Zhengqi Hall, Shang Ying saw clearly that she could defeat Shang Huiyu with one move.
Yunxiao seemed a little strange, he was not sure at all.
"Ying'er, have you forgotten what Yin Huan said before leaving? We merchants can't afford to offend the Yuhu Sect now!" Shang Yan first explained, and then Shang Ying's lips moved to speak, but she was
He waved his hand to stop it.
"But as long as Hui Yu can defeat Yun Xiao, then everything will not be a problem. I know what you are worried about, so I want to introduce you to a noble person!" Shang Yan did not delay, and when he finished speaking, he turned to the white man behind him.
The old man Xu gave way.
"This is Mr. Yan Cheng. I asked someone to bring him all the way from Luo Xing City. He is a genuine mortal-level senior pulse refiner!" Shang Yan's tone was somewhat respectful, and when he heard this
As soon as they were introduced, Shang Ying and Shang Huiyu's eyes lit up instantly.
Mortal-level senior pulse refiners are rare even in the entire Moon Bow City, and those old guys have their nostrils turned to the sky, and their relationship with merchants has never been very good.
Shang Ying and Shang Huiyu did not expect that this time the head of the family would be so powerful and invite a mortal-level senior pulse refiner from Luo Xing City thousands of miles away. Thinking of that possibility, both the grandfather and grandson were inexplicably surprised.
.
"I've met Mr. Yan!"
At the moment, Shang Ying's ancestors and grandson did not dare to show any slightness. Even though Yan Cheng's pulse energy cultivation was almost the same as that of Shang Yan, his title as a mortal-level senior pulse refiner was infinitely more noble than that of Shang Yan.
Times, this is the meat and potatoes that all the major forces are competing for in the entire Xuanyue Empire.
"That's all, if there's nothing else, let's get started!"
Yan Cheng waved his hand, as if he didn't even see Shang Ying in front of him, and stared directly at Shang Huiyu with a pair of old eyes. After a moment, he nodded and said: "The talent is not bad, and now I have a lot of confidence."
Some more!"
Hearing this, Shang Yan showed a hint of joy on his face, but he still explained to Shang Huiyu and Shang Huiyu: "I invited Mr. Yan here this time originally for Huiyu, but now that something like this has happened, it's just a coincidence.
, I believe that with Mr. Yan’s pulse refining methods, there should be no problem for Hui Yu to advance to the late stage of the pulse guiding realm!”
At this point, Shang Yan obviously paused, and after a slight hesitation he said: "And if you are lucky, the ancestral vein that Hui Yu did not activate when he broke through the vein-guiding realm may be able to be reactivated.
A little Yun Xiao will never be Hui Yu's opponent again!"
"Ancestral veins?!"
Suddenly hearing these two words that seemed to have magic power, Shang Ying and Shang Huiyu were stunned for a moment, and then felt ecstatic. This was really a surprise from the sky. They never thought that there was such a thing.
An unexpected gain.
Generally speaking, things like ancestral veins only have a certain chance of being activated when they break through a major level. Moreover, the higher the cultivation level achieved by the predecessors, the greater the chance of activating the ancestral veins.
Among the entire merchants, only Shang Yan has activated an ancestral vein, and he is already a strong man in the Chongmai realm, which means that he only succeeded once after breaking through three major levels.
Of course, the activation of ancestral veins cannot only be successful when breaking through the major levels. Some powerful pulse refiners have the means to activate ancestral veins for pulse and Qi cultivators, but this requires a certain amount of luck, and the probability is higher than
When it breaks through the big level, it will be much smaller.
So after hearing Shang Yan's words, Yan Cheng couldn't help but frowned and said: "Master Shang Yan, I am 100% sure that this little guy's pulse energy will be raised to the late stage of the pulse channeling realm, but this ancestral vein,
But it’s all illusory. If it doesn’t succeed by then, you can’t break your promise to me!”
"Of course, of course!"
Seemingly hearing the hint of displeasure in Yan Cheng's tone, Shang Yan immediately knew that he had said too much, and he also knew how difficult it was to activate the ancestral veins in this situation, so he responded immediately.
"Let's get started!"
Yan Cheng paid no attention to Shang Yan's flattery. After speaking in a cold voice, he waved his hands, and then the two powerful merchants understood and both left the courtyard.
"Father, do you think Huiyu can really successfully activate the ancestral veins?" Shang Ying was obviously still immersed in that fantasy and asked immediately after leaving the courtyard.
"Didn't you listen to what Mr. Yan said? Even he is not sure. I think we should just leave it to fate!" Shang Yan looked back at the peaceful courtyard, and there was also some melancholy in what he said.
"In this case, we may have to prepare something. This time, we must not let that bastard Yun Xiao snatch the quota that belongs to Hui Yu!" Shang Ying's eyes flashed, and there was a hint of hatred in his tone.
"Don't worry, I've already prepared for this!" Shang Yan glanced at Shang Ying, then stretched out his hand to touch his waist, and a dark red jade bottle appeared out of thin air in his hand.
"With this, even if Huiyu doesn't activate his ancestral veins, he won't be defeated by that boy Yun Xiao. As for the lost pulse energy cultivation, are you afraid that you won't be able to make up for it when you join the Jade Pot Sect?" Shang
The sinister smile on Yan's face made De Shang Ying instantly relieved.
This pair of merchant father and son are really vicious. Now, they have no regard for the merchant half of Yun Xiao. After what happened during the day, the two sides seem to have become sworn enemies.
It's just that the father and son never thought that Yun Xiao was no longer the timid young man they could manipulate at will. Shang Huiyu had a mortal-level senior pulse refiner to help him, and Yun Xiao didn't have his own methods. Maybe soon.
