"What's your name? What's going on with the contract between the two clans that we just mentioned?" After Master Li Xian and his party fled with tears of gratitude, Jiajun looked at the nervous woman in front of him and asked casually.
Before coming here, he also roughly looked up information about the ice field and knew that there were dozens of species of spiritual beasts and alien races living on the ice field, among which the Mei Yao clan was quite distinctive.
This clan looks similar to humans, but is extremely charming and handsome. They were once enslaved by human monks and raised as domestic slaves and concubines. Later, many powerful cultivators were born in their clan, and they gradually became independent from human control. In other cases
Jiajun didn't pay much attention to it.
"This...it turns out that the senior doesn't know about it. It seems that the junior is really lucky." The charming woman smiled bitterly, "The junior is called Mei Jing'er, and she is the leader of a branch of the Mei Yao clan. The contract between the two clans has been established for thousands of years.
It was established by the nobles and the powerful monks of our clan. The content of the contract is that our Mei Yao clan will not go to the human kingdom to commit crimes, but if they just kill people who step into the ice field, the human monks will not interfere."
Jiajun frowned after hearing this, "Why can't your Mei Yao clan live in harmony with humans? Do you have to kill them all?"
"This, this junior is presumptuous. Our clan likes flesh and blood, and mortal flesh and blood is indeed the most suitable for our clan's survival." Mei Jing'er looked embarrassed, completely losing her previous fierce look, "This ice field is poor in resources, and it is not easy for our clan to survive.
, Life is very difficult. My husband passed away in death a few years ago. I made this decision just to bring food to my children at home. I hope my seniors can understand!"
What he said made Jiajun full of emotions. He rescued someone, but ended up starving his child?
"Since you have not violated the contract between the two clans, there is no need to mention the previous matter again. Naturally, I will not blame you again!"
"Dare I ask Senior? It's a long journey, Senior, would you like to come to my cave to rest for a while?" After hearing what he said, Mei Jing'er finally breathed a sigh of relief, then smiled and said.
Now Jiajun is really interested in this Mei Yao clan. The Holy Spirit Continent has never seen such a strange race. They look similar to ordinary humans, but their appearance is indeed very charming. But it is this extraordinary beauty,
It also made him feel that the person in front of him was indeed not a human being. Since she invited him like this, he really wanted to take a look.
His curiosity for novelty was aroused for a moment, and since people with great skills are bold, Jiajun was not afraid of any tricks this charming demon might have.
"My name is Junming. In that case, I might as well pay a visit to your cave!" After thinking for a moment, he said calmly.
A trace of surprise flashed in Mei Jing'er's eyes, she just said casually, he really went? Are you not afraid that my cave has set an ambush?
Thinking this in her heart, she responded without delay, "Senior Junming is willing to honor me. It's such an honor! The cave is not far away. Please allow me to lead the way!"
Hearing what she said, Jiajun scanned forward with his senses and found that there were indeed many foreign monks ambushing in front of him. However, these monks were of too low level and he had ignored them when he sensed them before.
"Okay, I'll give you a hand!" Jiajun wrapped up Mei Jing'er with a burst of magic power, ignoring the timidity on her face, and took her directly to the place where Mei Yao was ambushing ahead.
…
"Mother!" A group of children, both male and female, who looked to be in their teens, rushed over. When they saw Mei Jing'er being brought flying by human monks, they all knelt down with a thud.
"I beg the Immortal Master to let mother go! Mother just wants us to have a good meal!" They seemed to have guessed what was going on, and they all cried with pain on their faces.
The group of children in front of him all looked extremely handsome and cute, and the way they knelt down and begged for mercy was even more heart-warming. Jiajun couldn't help but feel speechless for a while, feeling ashamed. He felt that he had instantly become a heinous person, actually in front of a group of children.
In front of them, he robbed their food without saying a word, and even bullied their mother.
"Don't be rude!" Mei Jing'er quickly shouted after landing, "Senior Junming is a visiting guest, why don't you hurry up and clean up the cave to welcome the distinguished guest!" After hearing her shout, a group of children hurriedly got up, while
Patting the traces of snow on his body, he hurriedly ran to the cave not far away.
Looking at their appearance, Jiajun suddenly realized why there were monks in Haitian Realm who specially kept the Mei Yao clan in captivity. It was naturally a great pleasure to have these handsome and lovely servants in the house. However, although these Mei Yao were beautiful in appearance, they were fond of
Living flesh and blood is something ordinary mortals cannot afford to offend.
"I wonder why Senior Junming went to the Bipolar Ice Cave? It is an extremely dangerous place on the ice field." After Jiajun sat down, Mei Jing'er offered a cup of hot tea. A group of children lowered their heads and stood obediently.
aside.
"Oh? How much do you know about the bipolar ice caves?" Jiajun raised his eyebrows, "I was just entrusted by my friend to run errands and pick up some things on her behalf."
"Get something?" Mei Jing'er asked strangely, "There is no grass or any living thing within a hundred miles of the ice cave at the two poles. Moreover, it is often shrouded by weird lightning storms. It is said that all those who are struck by lightning have no bones left.
, Jindan monks cannot dare to get close. And I heard that the lightning storm has become more severe in recent years! I don’t know about other things, this junior."
"Black lightning?" Jiajun suddenly became interested, "Interesting! I want to go take a look. You can't get close to the golden elixir stage, but I won't be afraid!" The black lightning should be related to the space rift, right? He thought secretly in his heart.
.
"Senior, is this the ancestor of Nascent Soul?" Mei Ling'er's face changed drastically when she heard this, and she asked in a voiceless voice.
Jiajun didn't answer, and immediately put down the tea cup, raised his hand and placed two elixirs on the table. "This elixir is called 'Marrow Cleansing Pill'. It is very useful for spiritual energy and foundation building. I will treat you as a patient for a while."
It’s the gift of leading the way.”
"Thank you, senior!" Mei Jing'er was ecstatic, practicing on the ice field, how could she get the elixir so easily.
She picked up the marrow cleansing pill and looked at it excitedly, but soon calmed down. After putting away the elixir, she looked at Jiajun timidly, as if she was hesitant to speak.
"If you have anything to say, just say it!" Jiajun naturally noticed her look and was slightly confused.
"Senior, do you know that my Mei Ya clan was once the favorite servant of the human monks, right?"
"I know, I know, but didn't you already study hard?"
"Senior!" Mei Jing'er suddenly stood up and bowed down, "Junior, I have something to ask of you!" Her behavior was so inexplicable that the children around her looked at each other in confusion.
"You get up first, no need to give a big gift!" Jiajun was startled, and a force of magic lifted her up.
"Although we, the Mei Yao clan, are good at reading, we are living in the ice plains. Survival is extremely difficult. Especially for cultivation, it is even more difficult. The younger generation is lucky enough to reach the late stage of foundation building. It is already a great blessing." Mei Jing'er thanked her again.
Finally, he slowly spoke with a sigh.
"Among the descendants of the younger generation, there are a pair of twin boys who are extremely talented in cultivation. They can also release supernatural powers when their abilities merge with each other. It is a rare sight in a thousand years! Unfortunately, I am unable to train them, so I can only watch them.
Their talents are buried in this ice field. The seniors are powerful Nascent Souls and are so kind-hearted. I sincerely ask the seniors to take them in!"
"Mother! Let's not leave!" After hearing what she said, two identical boys who looked about eleven or two years old ran out immediately, hugged Mei Ling'er and cried loudly.
"No surnames are allowed!" Mei Ling'er shouted, "Ancestor Yuanying has great power. If I can accept you as my servants, it would be a great opportunity! Why don't you bow to the ancestor quickly!" As she said, she gave a hand
He grabbed the two children and they fell to their knees, lowering their heads and sobbing.
"You want me to accept them as domestic servants?" Jiajun's face was full of weirdness, "What kind of talent do you two children have that is so rare?"
"Xiaoyun, Xiaohui, release your abilities quickly and ask Ancestor to take a look!" Mei Ling'er ordered eagerly, for fear that Jiajun would look down on them.
"Yes, mother!" The two children were still sobbing, but each stretched out a hand and held it with the other's fingers interlaced. At this moment, a strange feeling suddenly arose in Jiajun's heart.
He couldn't help being surprised, his perception swept towards the two brothers, and he found that the holy power in both of their bodies seemed to have been completely integrated into one.
Immediately afterwards, a strange scene appeared. The two children suddenly moved much faster. They stood up, walked back and forth in the room twice, and then came back to bow. The whole process was as if the camera was fast forwarding. Until the two people let go of their hands,
Only then did everything return to normal again, and the strange feeling disappeared.
"After two people work together, can the speed become faster?" Jiajun frowned. Isn't this a great talent? Why did he feel a strange feeling in his heart? Moreover, their movements were still so coordinated. Although the speed increased,
But it doesn’t seem like it’s hard?
"Ancestor, that's not the case!" One of the children said, his tone still choked with sobs, "We have this ability when we are very young, and our mother doesn't know what's going on. After working together, we can feel the surroundings
Everything has slowed down. We were actually walking at a normal speed just now, but in the eyes of others, it seemed like our speed had become faster."
"What?" Jiajun was stunned, not realizing what it meant. He turned to look at Mei Jing'er with a puzzled expression, but the latter was also full of expectations, and seemed to hope that he could give an explanation.
It's not that they have become faster, but that we have become slower? What is going on? Jiajun frowned and thought carefully. His own speed has not changed, but he can make everything around him slow down? Ah! Could it be?
Really? He suddenly remembered the records he had read in the academy, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he was stunned by this guess.
"Difficult, could it be the legendary... law of time?" After a while, he said these words in surprise.
