Xiao Ning raised his hand to stop everyone's speculation, "If this is true, it would be for the best. But it does not rule out that the ninth-level Martial Lord is his real cultivation level. After all, Xiao Yifeng is the one we watched growing up.
His talents and bones are considered to be excellent, and he can be said to be a genius that is rare to see in ten years. If he really cultivates to this level, it is not impossible."
"Brother, you just think too highly of him! No matter how talented he is, without the help of elixirs and secret books, he still can't be great!" Xiao Zhe still dismissed it, "Brother, the most important thing for us now is to find a way to deal with him!
If we really wait until three days later, we will lose the opportunity! If Xiao Yifeng bites us back, wouldn't it make everyone laugh?!"
Xiao Ning said thoughtfully, "Fourth brother, you led a raid that night, but did you find out their background?"
Xiao Zhe said seriously, "Xiao Yifeng is really powerful. More than a dozen secret guards surrounded him but they still couldn't take him down! As for that young man, he is very fast, but there is nothing unusual in his tricks. In my opinion, he is not something to be afraid of.
"
Xiao Ning frowned, "Isn't it something to be afraid of? That boy easily blocked your blow last time, isn't it something to be afraid of?"
Xiao Zhe looked embarrassed for a moment, and then snorted coldly, "I was careless last time! If he was serious, how could he get a favor from me?"
"Whether you are serious or not, that young man's strength cannot be underestimated. Coupled with Xiao Yifeng, we must make sufficient plans." Xiao Zhe pondered.
"Then what are you going to do, patriarch?"
Xiao Zhe thought for a moment and then asked, "What has Lingxi been doing these days?"
The Sixth Elder replied, "Lingxi has been preparing for the selection of Taihe Sect these past two days. He is in Zhushan Courtyard almost every day. Chief, don't worry, I have arranged a large number of guards to guard there. If Xiao Yifeng dares to go there,
He will never come back."
Xiao Ning nodded, and suddenly thought of something, his face suddenly changed, and he raised his head suddenly, "Is the sealed path in the back mountain of Zhushan Courtyard sealed?"
The Sixth Elder was startled and asked in confusion, "What secret path?"
"It's the secret path where the underground training ground was built back then!" Xiao Ning's face darkened and he cursed, "Damn it! Someone, come quickly!"
The Sixth Elder was confused for a moment, and then suddenly realized, "Could it be the secret path leading outside Yunshui City? Didn't it collapse a few years ago? How could it be...?"
Xiao Ning said angrily, "So what if it collapsed? If Xiao Yifeng really had the strength of a ninth-level martial master, wouldn't it be easy to open a small secret path?! Xiao Yifeng grew up in the Xiao Mansion, how could he not?
Do you know the secret of Zhushan Courtyard?"
The Sixth Elder and others were shocked when they heard this, and the guards immediately called to ask.
At this moment, there was a commotion in the distance. Xiao Ning looked over and shouted, "What happened?"
"To report to the clan leader and several elders, there is news from Zhushan Courtyard that there was a raid. Miss Lingxi is missing and her whereabouts are unknown now!"
"What?!"
I am really afraid of what will happen.
Xiao Ning's prediction came true.
"Damn it! What do the guards do for a living? How come they can't even guard themselves?!" the Sixth Elder scolded.
The guard said in a panic, "My subordinates don't know, but it seems that Miss Lingxi set the fire and ignited the entire Zhushan courtyard. When the guards took the opportunity to put out the fire, they were attacked again. Under attack from both sides, Miss Lingxi
…is missing…”
Xiao Ning and several elders all looked gloomy after hearing this.
"It seems that the person who did it is Xiao Yifeng. He is the only one who knows the secret path of Zhushan Courtyard, and he is the only one who can break through the many guards and take Lingxi away..." Xiao Ning's face was already very ugly at this moment.
"Brother! What should we do now? Lingxi was taken away by him! We have one less thing to suppress him!" Xiao Zhe said anxiously.
"Why are you so anxious? Lingxi is my daughter after all, she will not do anything to disgrace my Xiao family!"
"It's hard to say! Everyone knows the relationship between Lingxi and Xiao Yifeng. What if she..."
"Fourth!!" The Sixth Elder quickly interrupted him and gave him a look to stop talking. Xiao Zhe looked over at Xiao Ning, whose face was already as black as coal, and had no choice but to stop talking.
Xiao Ning's face was gloomy, and he waved his hand to summon his personal bodyguards, and ordered, "Summon the Xiao family's children immediately and use all your strength to capture Xiao Yifeng! If the third lady resists, she will be knocked unconscious and brought back, and everyone else... will be killed without mercy!"
"yes!"
The guards immediately went down to deliver the order, but they never found Ling Xuewei hiding in the dark.
Ling Xuewei finally arrived at the Elder's House after evading the guards' detection along the way. Coincidentally, she happened to meet Xiao Zhe and others who were going to the patriarch's yard on the way, so she followed them all the way.
Unexpectedly, I heard a good show of their discussions.
It seemed that Xiao Yifeng had succeeded. Ling Xuewei felt relieved knowing that Xiao Yifeng and Lingxi were safe.
So next...
Ling Xuewei slowly backed away, planning to evacuate here.
The purpose of tonight has been achieved, and we have learned about Xiao Mansion's defense strength. It is time to leave. Otherwise, it will be dangerous if we are discovered.
She retreated step by step. Suddenly, Xiao Ning over there heard something and looked over suddenly, "Who?!"
Ling Xuewei immediately stopped and held her breath without moving.
"Who's there? Come out!!" Xiao Ning stared at this side and walked towards this side step by step.
Several elders also looked vigilant. They were surrounded by guards unknowingly, arrows were being cocked one after another, and the atmosphere gradually became tense.
Ling Xuewei in the dark frowned.
Was she discovered? It shouldn’t be? She probably didn’t show any flaws, right?
"If you don't come out, I will order an attack! If you come out on your own initiative, I promise that I won't hurt you."
Ling Xuewei narrowed her eyes slightly, and the wind killer in her hand was released.
It seems that we can only give it a try.
"Hmph! Since you are so stubborn, don't blame me for being rude!" Xiao Ning raised his right hand with murderous intent in his eyes, "Shoot!"
"Whoosh whoosh!" Several arrows flew out, and Ling Xuewei was about to rush out of the forest. Suddenly, her waist tightened, and she was hugged by someone and rushed out of the forest quickly!
All arrows shot empty!
Everyone in the Xiao family looked at the two people who suddenly appeared in the sky, feeling secretly shocked.
How did they break into the Xiao Mansion? And how did they get so deep into the Presbytery?
Two figures jumped across the air, drew an arc, and then after a few jumps, landed in the lake pavilion in the distance.
"Chase!!"
Xiao Ning gave the order and everyone immediately chased him out!
Ling Xuewei was carried into the lake pavilion. She turned her head and looked at the person behind her, "Who are you?"
The person behind him was covered in a black cloak, and his appearance could not be seen clearly.
Who is this person who can approach behind her without making a sound?
"Xiao Wei'er, you don't recognize me after not seeing me for a while?"
A low-alcohol and magnetic voice came from under the cloak, the moonlight penetrated the clouds, and the hazy shadows gradually receded, revealing the familiar and smooth lower jaw of the cloak.
It still has graceful lines and is like a miraculous workmanship. Once you see it, you will never forget it.
Ling Xuewei was stunned.
The man raised his slender fingers like ice sculptures, took off the black cloth covering her face, and then slowly approached her, pressing a gentle kiss to the side of her face.
A charming smile appeared on her pale pink lips, "Xiao Wei'er, I'm back."
Ling Xuewei's heart skipped a beat. She never expected that she would meet Ye Moyan here.
Night Moyan.
Why is he here?
"You, how could you..." Ling Xuewei asked blankly.
"Shh, don't ask yet, we'll talk about it after we leave." Ye Moyan raised the corner of his mouth slightly, took out a crescent-shaped silver face and gave it to Ling Xuewei, looked at it, and then nodded with satisfaction, "This one looks better."
Ling Xuewei was speechless.
Please, she comes out to do business, it doesn’t matter what she wears on her face, right?
At this time, bursts of footsteps were heard, and then countless Xiao family guards poured out from around the lake.
Xiao Ning and several elders walked out surrounded by the crowd, looked towards the center of the lake, and shouted loudly, "You have been surrounded. I advise you two to just surrender! In this way, I can spare your lives!"
This lake is a still lake that separates the inner courtyard from the Elder's Court. It is really not easy for these two people to break into the Xiao Mansion's Elder's Court easily without alerting any of the guards.
"What's the point of the two of you barging into my Xiao Mansion at night? If you don't say anything, don't blame me for being rude!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Zhe took a step forward and said, "Archers, prepare!"
On the roof, on the rockery, and in the woods, several archers suddenly appeared! Their arrows were all aimed at Ling Xuewei and the two in the middle of the lake!
"I'll ask you again, tell me or not!"
Xiao Zhe showed murderous intent, "Brother! What nonsense are you talking to them about? Just go up and capture them!"
Xiao Ning looked cold and shouted, "Shoot an arrow!!"
As soon as he finished speaking, there were several sounds of "swish, swish, swish", and arrows like flying rain were shot from all directions towards the center of the lake!
Ling Xuewei's body tensed up, the wind was killing in her hands, and her eyes were cold.
At this moment, the man next to her stood in front of her, raised his hand, and moved his slender fingertips slightly. The next second, the incoming arrow suddenly stopped one step away from them!
It's like pressing the pause button and freezing in the air!
Ling Xuewei's eyes widened!
This scene also shocked all the Xiao family children!
Ye Moyan's fingers like ice sculptures twisted the nearby arrow, and when he raised his eyes, all the arrows fell to the ground with a crash!
The sound woke up all the stunned Xiao family children!
But just as they regained consciousness, they saw an arrow coming at lightning speed. Before anyone could react, the arrow pierced the rockery wall behind the head of the clan leader Xiao Ning!
"hiss……"
Everyone gasped coldly and took a step back in shock.
Gala——
With a loud noise, the rockery cracked, and then with a "bang", it broke into countless pieces!
For a moment, there was deathly silence all around.
Everyone in the Xiao family was shocked by this hand, as if they were frozen, and no one moved.
Xiao Ning looked at the intact arrow among the countless rubbles, with a hint of panic in his eyes.
Everyone looked at the tall figure in the middle of the lake, their expressions extremely ugly.
