In the early morning, the sky was not completely bright yet, and stars could still be seen vaguely in the sky. In the small courtyard where Xiao Ran and the others lived, bursts of whirring sounds continued to come out, making the few people who were still sleeping suddenly startled.

, and then they all quickly got up.

When the four of them came to the door with sleepy eyes, they were shocked.

Through the starlight, you can vaguely see a young man in white holding a three-foot-long dagger in his hand. He keeps pulling it out and moving it forward from bottom to top. After completing this action, he takes it back.

Then repeat it again, doing the same action over and over again.

"Well? It's the young master? What is he doing?" The four of them had gathered together at this moment. After watching for a while, Huang Ting said with a slightly surprised voice.

As soon as these words came out, the four people looked at each other, but none of them saw the reason.

Xiao Ran, who was sitting in the open space in the small courtyard not far away, didn't even look at the four of them. He was still practicing his sword skills by himself.

Just after Xiao Ran finished practicing, he couldn't sleep for a while, so he walked out. It was not too bright outside, so Xiao Ran remembered the six sword skills he had created in his previous life, and started practicing when he had nothing to do.

What Xiao Ran used at this time was the Sword Drawing Technique, one of the six major swordsmanships, and it was also the lowest ranked among the six major swordsmanships.

In fact, the sword drawing technique is familiar to everyone in the entire Wolong Continent. As long as you are a warrior, you will use it, because the sword drawing technique is the lowest level of swordsmanship, and it is also something you must be familiar with to become a sword cultivator.

A swordsmanship.

However, since it is a first-level swordsmanship, it is naturally not very powerful, so not many people will pay much attention to it. Xiao Ran didn't care much about it when he reached the level of Sword King.

But something happened later that made Xiao Ran start to care.

That was when Xiao Ran had just broken through to the Sword Emperor, and wanted to find someone to compete with him to determine how his cultivation was. However, with his sixth-level swordsmanship, he thought he should be invincible among the Sword Emperor, but he didn't expect it.

I met a person who only had the cultivation level of the Sword Emperor, but was actually a high-level Sword Emperor. With the most basic sword-drawing skills, this person suppressed Xiao Ran to death, and in the end he almost defeated Xiao Ran directly.

Killed.

From then on, Xiao Ran began to study the most basic swordsmanship. When Xiao Ran reached the Sword Sect, he finally created the swordsmanship of drawing a sword.

Although this sword-drawing technique does not seem to be much different from ordinary first-level swordsmanship, after Xiao Ran's subtle adjustments, this sword-drawing technique is no longer limited to the level of swordsmanship. As long as the modification is higher, the power will be lower.

The greater the level, for example, if your cultivation level is in the Sword Emperor, if you exert it to your full strength, you will definitely be no less than the fifth level swordsmanship, or even surpass the fifth level to reach the sixth level swordsmanship.

In the following time, with the steady improvement of Xiao Ran's cultivation, the other five sword techniques were gradually created and transformed by Xiao Ran one by one, and were divided into six sword techniques. In the previous life, Xiao Ran practiced these six sword techniques hundreds of thousands of times.

, making these six swordsmanships seem to be engraved in the bones, so that they can be effective without any practice in this life.

Today, Xiao Ran finally found time to start practicing, and once he started practicing, he spent several hours.

A few people watched for a while and then dispersed, and then got up again soon. When the first ray of morning light fell, everyone had already prepared breakfast.

Breakfast was naturally prepared by Huang Ting and Huang Fang. When everyone had prepared breakfast, Xiao Ran finally walked in from the outside. After putting the dagger aside, he glanced at the food on the table with a smile and said:

"I didn't expect that the craftsmanship of the two of you looks good. It's delicious. Let's all eat together!" As he was talking, Xiao Ran had already found a seat and sat down.

After a day of getting along, everyone already knew Xiao Ran's temper. Therefore, when Xiao Ran asked them to sit down, they did it without being polite, and then picked up the things on the table and started eating.

"Wu Zhi, you go out to help me buy some medicinal materials today. The gold coins and the names of the medicinal materials are all here!" Just as he said that, Xiao Ran immediately took out a gold coin card and a note from the space ring and handed them to him while eating.

Takeshi was holding the porridge, and the latter immediately nodded and took it.

Seeing Wu Zhi take it, Xiao Ran turned around again and said to the other three people next to him: "Yu Changchun, you will go out with Huang Ting and Huang Fang to rent a carriage later. We will be preparing to leave the city in a few days.

, it will be useful when the time comes!”

Seeing everyone nodding, Xiao Ran smiled slightly again, and then took out three gold coin cards and handed them to the three of them one after another: "There are 10,000 gold coins in each of them. You three will keep them for now. All future expenses will be taken directly from them."

, if it’s not enough, tell me again!”

The three of them were stunned and looked at the hand Xiao Ran held out in disbelief. It was worth 30,000 yuan! Wu Zhi was slightly stunned after hearing this, and subconsciously looked at the gold coin card in his hand.

past.

It didn't matter. He almost threw away the gold coin card in his hand, because he clearly saw 10,000 gold coins clearly displayed under the gold coin card. In other words, Xiao Ran also gave him 10,000 gold coins.

.

The four people felt a little moved in their hearts, and then they took the gold coin card from Xiao Ran's hand one by one, and nodded heavily to Xiao Ran. This move by Xiao Ran represented absolute trust in them in their hearts.

"By the way, after you go out, don't cause trouble for me, otherwise I won't take my mercy lightly!" When Xiao Ran said this, a cold light suddenly flashed in his eyes, making the people opposite him slightly startled.

But the next moment, Xiao Ran immediately changed his tone and said: "But if someone takes the initiative to provoke you, you can just beat me. If something happens, I will come naturally. If you dare to touch my people, hum!" After speaking, he snorted coldly.

He didn't continue to speak, but everyone naturally understood the meaning of his words.

After having a peaceful meal, Xiao Ran went straight back to the room to continue practicing. Now that someone has taken care of these chores, Xiao Ran will naturally start to practice hard. After all, Xiao Ran knows that the current Wolong Continent

, but it is not as peaceful as it seems, and if Xiao Ran wants to protect himself and his family, only strength is the way to go, and everything else is empty.

For several days, in addition to practicing and refining his true energy, Xiao Ran continued to practice sword-drawing skills. Everyone looked at each other in confusion and didn't know what was going on, but no one said anything.

But Wu Zhi and the other four people didn't know that the reason why Xiao Ran stayed in Wangu City was precisely for them. Although Xiao Ran seemed very generous, he was only for his own people. From Xiao Ran's perspective, how many people

After bringing it back, I have been observing a few people secretly.

Only when a few people are truly recognized by Xiao Ran, will Xiao Ran truly trust them. These days are when Xiao Ran tests them. Once they cannot gain Xiao Ran's true trust, it will be difficult to gain Xiao Ran's trust in the future.
