In a magnificent hall, there was a girl sitting on the main seat. She was sitting on a chair, her feet were swinging back and forth, and she was holding a half-eaten fruit in her hand.
If anyone sees it, they will definitely be surprised, because the fruit she is holding is called "Yuanling Fruit", which is the main material for refining the third-grade Wild Spirit Pill.
But it is also a rare panacea, basically all of which have a price but no market.
After a while, when she was about to finish the spiritual fruit in her hand, a person walked in from the door of the hall. As soon as the girl saw the person, she stood up and ran towards the person happily.
He shouted: "Daddy, if you don't come back, Xin'er will go into seclusion!" After saying that, he pouted and pretended to be angry, which looked very cute.
This girl is Lingxin, and the middle-aged man in front of her is her father Shangguan Ao. He is handsome, with well-proportioned facial features, thick heroic eyebrows, and sharp-edged face, which clearly reveals his domineering aura.
At first glance, you can tell that he is someone who is not easy to mess with. His hair is shoulder length, silver gray, with bangs parted in the middle. He is not tied up or decorated in any way. He looks very free and easy.
Shangguan Ao touched Lingxin's head and said dotingly: "Xin'er, are you still used to being in Yuanwuzong?"
Lingxin replied: "Dad, I met a brother in Yuanwuzong, and he is really nice!"
Shangguan Ao asked doubtfully: "Brother?"
Lingxin replied: "Yes! His name is Lin Tianheng. I recognize him as my brother. I will bring him to see my father in the future!".
Shangguan Ao didn't know whether to laugh or cry after hearing this, but he didn't take a negative attitude. It seemed that he would happily accept his daughter no matter what!
So he smiled and said: "Okay, okay, I know those geniuses of Yuanwuzong, but I have never heard of this name! Isn't he the genius of Yuanwuzong?"
Shangguan Ao knows his daughter very well. His daughter is usually coquettish and makes trouble everywhere without reason. She is just like a little pepper. Even when facing the genius of Yuan Wuzong, she always looks disgusted.
But now he recognized an unknown disciple as his brother, and seemed to be very fond of him, so he also wanted to know what kind of person could cure this little pepper.
Lingxin added: "Dad, do you still remember the kind of physique that our ancestors talked about? It is a physique without attribute elements. Brother Tianheng has that kind of physique.
Although he has no attribute elements, his qualification is Tianpin spiritual root, and he can also practice. Do you think he is very powerful?
The most important thing is that I feel that brother Tianheng makes me feel very kind, just like a mother!"
After speaking, he looked at Shangguan Ao expectantly.
After hearing this, Shangguan Ao looked shocked. His expression seemed to Lingxin as if he didn't like Lin Tianheng and was about to persuade him.
But I never thought that Shangguan Ao said excitedly: "Xin'er, are you telling the truth?"
Lingxin nodded and said "Yeah"
Then Shangguan Ao said with joy on his face: "Xin'er, this is a big deal. I have to go see the ancestor. Aren't you about to break through? I have prepared everything you need. You can go to the secret room by yourself.
!
Also...if I have a chance to bring that brother of yours to our house, I have to take a good look at it, the sooner the better!"
After speaking, he held her head in his hands, kissed her forehead, and then left in a hurry, leaving Lingxin standing there stunned.
She murmured: "What's wrong with dad? I've never seen him lose his temper like this before! And isn't the news about my breakthrough in realm not as important as the news about brother Tian Heng? But that's okay, it seems that dad also likes brother Tian Heng."
, and then she also left the hall.
After Shangguan Ao left the main hall, he went to the back mountain. There were many buildings around the main hall, some high and some low. This was the residence of the Shangguan family.
The Shangguan family is an ancient family with a long heritage. Shangguan Ao is the current head of the family. He has no sons, and Lingxin is his only child.
The architectural styles here are all the same, similar to ancient buildings on Earth, but much grander. The entire station is very large, covering dozens of square kilometers, and is built in a mountain forest.
In the forbidden area of the back mountain, Shangguan Ao was standing at the door of a cave. After a long time, an old voice came from inside, "Ao'er, come in!"
As soon as the voice came to mind, the stone door opened. Shangguan Ao hurriedly walked in. The light in the cave was very dim. After twisting and turning, he reached another cave entrance. As soon as he reached the cave entrance, the closed stone door opened.
Then he walked in. There was only a stone platform in the middle of the cave and nothing else. Sitting on the stone platform was a gray-haired old man with his eyes closed tightly and his face full of wrinkles.
Shangguan Ao came to the old man and bowed deeply. Without getting up, he lowered his head and said respectfully: "Ao'er pays homage to the ancestor."
The old man didn't see any movement, and then a voice came out: "Why should I be alarmed?"
Then Shangguan Ao said excitedly: "Ancestor, do you still remember that ethereal physique?"
The old man said again: "Of course I know, do you think I'm an old fool?" Hearing the voice, he was slightly angry.
Shangguan Ao didn't dare to show off anymore and said quickly: "Ancestor, please calm down and listen to what Ao'er said. That girl Lingxin met a person in Yuanwuzong who was suspected of having an ethereal physique."
As soon as he finished speaking, the old man suddenly opened his eyes, and two bright white lights flashed past Shangguan Ao.
Immediately, he thought to himself: "This kind of physique is definitely not something that can be found in a pond! In Yuanwuzong, he must have discovered it too!" Then he said nothing, seeming to be lost in memories...
After a while, he said to Shangguan Ao: "If there is a chance, I will draw him into the clan. I would like to see if this ethereal body is what the rumors say!"
At this moment, Shangguan Ao was still frightened. If the two white lights just fell on him, he would be seriously injured even if he didn't die.
But he still said respectfully: "Don't worry, ancestor, that man has a good relationship with Xin'er. I heard from Xin'er that she recognizes him as her brother."
After hearing this, the old man was surprised and said: "Oh? That's very good. Xin'er is really the lucky star of my Shangguan family!"
After saying that, he stroked his beard, looking very satisfied and enjoying himself, and then closed his eyes again. Seeing this, Shangguan Ao did not dare to stay any longer, so he bowed and left.
However, the implication of the old man's words made him confused. He knew that although the rarity of that kind of physique could be called unique, it would not be like this, but he did not dare to ask more.
When he came out of the cave, Shangguan Ao's back was soaked with sweat. He thought to himself: "The pressure from ancestors is too great, even if it is not intentional!", and then hurriedly went down the mountain and returned.
