Xiyun Kingdom can only be regarded as an inconspicuous small secular country among the dozens of countries in Sansheng Island. Its population will exceed ten million, but its geographical environment is quite favorable.
Xiyun Kingdom is surrounded by mountains on three sides, with only one Yunliu River running through the territory. Therefore, since Xiyun Kingdom was established here two hundred years ago, the entire Xiyun Kingdom has been singing and dancing at home and abroad, and has never suffered foreign invasion. Perhaps it has been peaceful for a long time.
, some domestic wealthy merchants were gradually dissatisfied with the status quo, and began to do business with neighboring Beili, Yulan and other countries, carrying large amounts of goods. As a result, many aristocratic families who had been doing business for centuries were born.
These aristocratic families have been doing business for generations and have countless wealth. They have countless disciples and guests. Some immortal cultivators who are greedy for the secular world come here because of their reputation and are willing to be driven by them. Some of the aristocratic families even have more power than the royal family of Xiyun Kingdom. This situation has been observed throughout the Three Kingdoms.
The Holy Island is unique among secular countries.
Of course, most of these immortal cultivators who are willing to surrender to aristocratic families have limited immortality and low cultivation, but they have not caused much trouble.
The Chen family is located in Chuiliuzhou of Xiyun Kingdom. As one of the largest aristocratic families in the entire Xiyun Kingdom, although the Chen family has absolute power in the entire Xiyun Kingdom, the family does not have the arrogance of ordinary aristocratic families. Chen family disciple Wen Gongqian
Liang, moral character is the highest.
In the afternoon, the fierce sun sets in the west.
In the backyard of the Chen Mansion in Xijing Lane, Chuiliu Prefecture, the contemporary head of the Chen family, Chen Rufeng, Mr. Chen, is lying leisurely under a weeping willow tree hugged by two people, squinting and sipping a pot of fragrant tea at hand.
, thinking about something in his mind.
Mr. Chen has long passed the age of knowing his life, but he has taken good care of himself. His hair is black and there is no white hair, and he is energetic but not old. Even if he takes a rest in the afternoon, he just lies quietly on the recliner, giving people a sense of rigorous family tradition.
.
The afternoon sun was not very bright, and with the willows surging and the gentle breeze blowing, Mr. Chen soon fell asleep.
However, just when Mr. Chen seemed to be sleeping but not sleeping, a slightly urgent footsteps suddenly sounded. He had just approached, maybe because he saw the old man taking a nap, the footsteps suddenly became lighter, and he came closer quietly.
"Old man, old man..."
The boy's voice sounded softly in his ears, and the sleepiness that had just arisen immediately disappeared. Mr. Chen, who was pretending to be asleep, shook his head to wake himself up, glanced at the boy and said, "Say it!"
"Master, you have ordered me to notify you as soon as the young master comes back. This young master has just passed the house and has already come to the backyard."
The boy bowed his head slightly and said softly.
"Oh? Yingwu is back? Let him come over quickly."
After hearing what the young man said, the old man who was quite resentful at first
The master's voice was raised and he said excitedly.
As soon as he finished speaking, a young man who looked about 20 years old, wearing white armor, and who looked like an extraordinary warrior had already appeared at the gate of the garden. Seeing the old man, the young man seemed extremely happy, "Grandpa, Xiao Wu is back. I haven't seen you for a long time, grandpa."
, how are you lately?"
The young man who was called Chen Yingwu was also very excited. When he saw the old man, he immediately strode over. Before he could reach the old man, he had already bent his knees and was about to kneel down.
However, he was wearing a soldier's armor and had to bow inconveniently. Before the opponent could surrender, the old man had already helped him up. He looked at the young man up and down. The old man, who was already extremely happy, laughed loudly and said, "Good boy, you are worthy of being a member of my Chen family."
Descendants, I asked you to come back this time for something..."
Having said this, Mr. Chen seemed to have thought of something. He suddenly patted his head and ordered the boy behind him, "Go and get the thing I got a few days ago."
After receiving the order, the boy was stunned for a moment, but then he came to his senses, responded, and left in a hurry.
"Grandpa, what is the purpose of bringing your grandson back this time?"
"Haha, you will understand later, but whether this thing will succeed or not still depends on luck. Although our Chen family has a great family and a great business, we are also powerful in Xiyun Kingdom, but these are just appearances. Back then
Xiyun has just been founded, and you must know how powerful the Yun family, the largest surname in Xiyun, is. However, because of offending a guest of the Zhao family of the Three Saints Sect, the whole family was slaughtered overnight, which shows that strength is the foundation of the family.
, Although our Chen family has recruited some immortal cultivators in recent years, the cultivation level of those cultivators is really not good, and they cannot even compare with some secular warriors, alas..."
Having said this, Mr. Chen Rufeng Chen sighed heavily, with a hint of worry in his brows.
"Could this incident have something to do with the immortal cultivators?"
Hearing this, Chen Yingwu suddenly became excited, and even his voice raised a lot.
"Haha, I also tried my luck..."
Just as he said this, the young boy who had left came running out of the courtyard panting, followed by two powerful men carrying a majestic-looking wooden sculpture.
"Could this be the legendary puppet beast?"
Seeing this wooden sculpture, Chen Yingwu, who was still frowning, seemed to have thought of something. Suddenly his eyes lit up and he couldn't wait to go forward and take a closer look.
"Haha, yes, it is exactly a puppet beast, but the strength of this wind leopard puppet beast is extraordinary, and it is comparable to the immortal cultivators in the foundation-building stage."
Chen Rufeng stroked his short beard under his forehead and said with a smile, but as soon as he finished speaking, Chen Rufeng, who was originally just interested,
But Yingwu raised his eyebrows, quite disbelieving, "Can you compare with the immortal cultivators in the foundation-building stage?"
Hearing Chen Yingwu's somewhat doubtful tone, Chen Rufeng did not explain. He directly took the wooden box handed over by the boy, took out a white spirit stone, made a "click" sound, and stuffed it into the groove on the belly of the wind leopard in front of him.
.
"Yingwu, come and try it. You can be considered an immortal cultivator now. It shouldn't be difficult to manipulate this puppet beast."
After hearing what Chen Rufeng said, Chen Yingwu was not polite. He took off his armor and carefully pulled off a gray-white storage bag from his waist. He patted it lightly and a white jade bottle fell into his hand.
, poured out two emerald green pills, swallowed them without hesitation, and then sat up cross-legged to meditate.
After a cup of tea, Chen Yingwu, who originally seemed a little tired from the long journey, became energetic again. Then he took a deep breath, closed his eyes slightly, and a ray of soul wave extended from the center of his eyebrows, and cautiously moved towards the puppet beast in front of him.
It fell.
This time it took a full stick of incense to pass. When Chen Yingwu's face turned pale with a faint hint of fatigue with his eyes closed, he suddenly opened his eyes with a look of surprise and uncertainty on his face.
"Yingwu? What's wrong? Is there something wrong?"
Seeing the surprised expression on his grandson's face, Chen Rufeng, who was originally full of confidence, said worriedly, but the latter seemed not to hear it at all. As Chen Yingwu softly uttered a few words in his mouth, the originally sluggish puppet in front of him
The beast seemed to come to life in an instant. When it opened its mouth, a green wind blade spurted out from its mouth. The crescent moon that was originally the size of a palm swelled in the wind and suddenly became three feet in size. Before the people around him could react, they heard a muffled sound.
, not far away, a century-old willow hugged by two people was broken in the middle, and the cut surface was as smooth as a mirror.
Seeing this scene, no matter Chen Rufeng or the young men around him, even Chen Yingwu, who had just reached the seventh level of Qi Refining, had a dull look on his face, as if he was frightened by the scene before him.
"this……"
Chen Rufeng still managed to maintain his composure, his throat rolled, but he didn't say anything else.
In Shanyang Town, Chuiliu Prefecture, in the evening, "Kong's Grocery Store" ended its business for the day and had closed its doors. The backyard formation was sealed, and in a small flower garden covering an area of about two feet, the face of Patriarch Jin was restored.
The devil's body is sitting cross-legged quietly. In front of him, the devil-eating vine that was only as short as a forearm is now nine feet long. It has circled around the entire flower garden. Except for the darkness above and below, it looks nothing like the world.
The maple vines in the room are all the same. The extremely rich true demon energy slowly escapes from the stems of the devil-devouring vine in front of you. However, before it can float around, it is absorbed by a strong devouring force.
