Through this period of getting along, Xiao Yifeng has long regarded the woman in front of him as his partner, friend, and even his master who can sacrifice his life at any time.
If Ling Xuewei is in trouble, Xiao Yifeng will never ignore it!
"That's right. Do you want me to watch you being bullied by others?"
Ling Xuewei continued.
"Besides, I also need your help very much now. Only after you achieve your wish for many years, I think you can help me wholeheartedly!"
"Xuewei, are you really willing to help me?" Xiao Yifeng looked surprised.
"Of course. But not right away." Ling Xuewei said with a slightly solemn face, "Our strength is not enough, and a head-on confrontation with the big family is like hitting a stone with an egg. We cannot act without authorization before we are absolutely sure."
"I understand that this matter does need long-term consideration. Moreover, the Xiao family has many experts and many organs in the house, making it difficult for outsiders to break in. If you want to successfully rescue Lingxi, you need to discuss it carefully." Xiao Yifeng nodded vigorously.
"That's what I mean. This Solid Yuan Pill should greatly increase your cultivation." Ling Xuewei said, "During this period, I will also improve my strength as soon as possible and try to rescue Miss Lingxi as soon as possible."
The man who was almost thirty years old actually had tears in his eyes at this moment. It was as if he finally had a partner with whom he could share his feelings, and half of the big stone that had been hanging on his chest for a long time fell away.
Ling Xuewei sighed in her heart.
It's a good thing that he has carried such a big burden and struggled alone for so many years. It would be better to talk about it now.
"About Miss Lingxi..." Ling Xuewei suddenly hesitated.
"Xuewei, if you have anything to say, just say it." Xiao Yifeng said.
"Actually, you don't need to worry too much about Miss Lingxi. She is a very strong girl. Since she was able to deceive everyone in the family by pretending to be ill, she will definitely be able to find a way to live a good life in the family now.
"Ling Xuewei said.
She was not comforting Xiao Yifeng, because she heard from Xiao Yifeng's words that Lingxi was not a weak person. Even if Xiao Yifeng didn't save her, she would find a way to save herself.
"After this mission of the Medicine King Cauldron is over, we will start preparing for this matter. Now you should concentrate on improving your own strength and don't think about anything else. Do you understand?"
Xiao Yifeng nodded vigorously and tightened his hand holding the box slightly.
He will definitely become stronger!
…
In the next few days, Xiao Yifeng remained in seclusion. Ling Xuewei also ordered the guards outside the hospital that no one could enter Lingyun Pavilion without her permission.
Xiao Yifeng practiced with peace of mind, and Ling Xuewei was not idle either. She had been refining elixirs and practicing.
After the last show of authority, everyone in the Ling family avoided Ling Xuewei.
So no one dared to provoke her again.
Ling Xuewei also enjoyed her leisure time.
Just three days later, the Four Nations Competition began.
Xiao Yifeng also came out of seclusion.
He took Guyuan Dan, and after three days of sleepless practice, he was directly promoted from the second-level Martial Lord to the ninth-level Martial Lord!
There is only one step left to become the Martial Emperor!
Ling Xuewei was very happy when she found out!
Ninth level Martial Lord!
You can almost walk sideways in Xuanyuan Kingdom!
There are few opponents even among the four countries!
Now, their safety is further guaranteed!
Ling Xuewei never expected that this Solid Yuan Pill would be so precious, capable of allowing a Martial Lord to cross the seventh level in a row!
No wonder the people on Tianxuan Continent are trying so hard to get a Yuan-Guiding Pill!
Who wouldn’t want this kind of treasure that can improve one’s cultivation like a rocket?
But Ling Xuewei did not regret giving the Guyuan Pill to Xiao Yifeng.
After all, Xiao Yifeng is stronger and Ling Xuewei is safer.
What's more, Ling Xuewei now has a research base and the ancient inheritance of the medicine cauldron. Even if she faces a powerful enemy, she can still save her life.
After Xiao Yifeng realized the preciousness of Guyuan Dan, he was grateful to Ling Xuewei again.
I swore in my heart that I would be loyal to Ling Xuewei for the rest of my life and never betray.
After the two briefly met, the housekeeper outside came to inform Ling Xuewei that the carriage heading to the stadium was ready and would leave in half an hour.
Ling Xuewei had a simple breakfast, took the snowballs, and left Lingyun Pavilion.
When I came to the gate of Ling Mansion, I took a quick look and found that the Ling family was really complete today!
The children from all sides and the direct descendants are all here!
When Ling Xuewei appeared, the surroundings instantly became quiet.
Everyone looked at Ling Xuewei with wary expressions.
"Third cousin, you're here!" Only Ling Yule ran over, with uncontrollable excitement on his delicate face.
After all, it is the Four Nations Competition. Anyone would be excited about such a rare competition.
"Tsk, you're a guy who thinks the wind is coming! Do you think that if you catch up with Ling Xuewei, you'll have nothing to fear? You don't even know what you are!"
"That's right! Although Ling Xuewei has been appreciated by the queen, we still don't know what will happen in the future!"
"Don't think that just a few days ago, you were in the limelight at home, but when you get to the competition field, you will be destroyed in seconds!"
"Shh, stop talking, be careful if she hears it..."
…
Everyone murmured quietly, their tone full of disdain for Ling Xuewei.
Ling Xuewei heard these whispers clearly, but she ignored them and got in the car directly.
Because no one dared to ride in the same car as Ling Xuewei, so, together with her and Ling Yu who came up with her, the carriage was quite spacious.
Xiao Yifeng acted as driver for Ling Xuewei outside the car.
"Cousin, don't listen to their nonsense. These people are so angry because they are jealous of you." Ling Yu was worried that Ling Xuewei would be unhappy after hearing those rumors, so he comforted Ling Xuewei.
"It's nothing to me, but it's nothing to you?" Ling Xuewei said with a smile.
She wasn't the only one being talked about.
"What do I have? I've long been used to it!"
Ling Yu was quite open.
"I just treat them like flies buzzing around, going in one ear and out the other!"
Ling Xuewei looked at Ling Yu's cheerful face, with the corners of her mouth slightly raised.
"By the way, cousin, are you satisfied with the medicinal materials I sent you before?"
Ling Yu said excitedly.
"I go to this store often and I am quite confident in their quality."
After Ling Xuewei came back from the palace a few days ago, Ling Yu sent a large amount of medicinal herbs.
These herbs were listed by Ling Xuewei before and asked Ling Yu and Xiao Yifeng to buy them together.
"There is no problem with the quality. You are quite efficient in doing things. I will leave all the medicinal materials to you in the future." Ling Xuewei was very happy to have found a stable source of medicinal materials.
"No problem! Cousin, you asked Brother Xiao to teach me kung fu for free. I can't thank you enough! Just take care of this little thing on me!"
Ling Yu patted his chest.
"If you have any other medicinal materials you want in the future, just tell me in advance and I will buy them for you, guaranteed to be of high quality and low price!"
"Haha, I'll leave it to you." Ling Xuewei patted Ling Yu on the shoulder.
"Hehe, it's a trivial matter!" Ling Yu smiled even more happily.
After this period of contact, Ling Xuewei found that Ling Yu was straightforward, not evil-minded, and very efficient.
The most important thing is that Ling Yu will not ask more questions whether he should ask or not.
Even though Ling Yu was wondering why Ling Xuewei wanted so many medicinal materials, he never asked her.
In this way, Ling Xuewei was a little more satisfied with the young man in front of her.
"Xiaoyu, this is for you." Ling Xuewei handed him a white bottle.
Ling Yu took it doubtfully.
"Cousin, what is this?" Ling Yu asked.
Ling Yu opened the bottle cap as he spoke.
When I saw the pills inside, my eyes nearly popped out!
"So many pills?! Cousin, where did you get them?" Ling Yu cried out in surprise.
Ling Xuewei said, "Don't worry about this. If you participate in the Four Nations Competition, you will inevitably get injured. Here are twenty blood-replenishing pills and spiritual energy pills. You can keep them, they will be useful."
"Here, for me?" Ling Yu could fit an egg into his mouth.
Priceless!
For a while, there were only these four words left in Ling Yu's mind.
He had never seen so many pills in his life.
But Ling Xuewei gave him all the elixirs.
Ling Yu felt that he was dreaming.
"Of course." Ling Xuewei said dumbfounded.
"Cousin..." Ling Yu looked at Ling Xuewei gratefully and almost cried.
"You've helped me a lot recently, and you deserve it," Ling Xuewei said.
"What did cousin say?" Ling Yu panicked and quickly explained. "That's not why I helped you..."
"Of course I know." Ling Xuewei interrupted him and said with a smile, "It's just that the sword has no eyes in the arena, so it's better to prepare more just in case."
Ling Yu was deeply moved.
Ever since he was a child, no one except his mother had cared about him so much.
Ling Xuewei gave him so many precious pills in one go.
Ling Yu carefully put away the bottle and looked at Ling Xuewei gratefully, "Thank you, cousin."
He will remember this kindness forever.
…
The carriage slowly headed towards the arena.
The venue for the Four Nations competition was set in the Golden Colosseum in the center of the capital city.
The Colosseum can accommodate tens of thousands of spectators, and for this competition, more than a dozen additional circular arenas were added.
This can greatly increase the speed of the competition. After all, the number of participants this time has reached tens of thousands, and it is not that easy to quickly determine the winner.
Among the four participating countries this time, Xuanyuan has the largest number of people.
In addition to the children of major families, there are also many members of mercenary groups and casual cultivators.
It can be said that he is as strong as a cloud.
Ling Xuewei listened to Ling Yu telling her about the Four Nations Competition, and the carriage swayed to the main city street.
"Yifeng, stop here."
Xiao Yifeng stopped the carriage and opened the curtain. Ling Yu was confused, "Cousin, why did it stop here?"
"I have something to do, let Yifeng take you to the arena." Ling Xuewei ordered as she got off the carriage.
