Everyone was sitting around Yun Xi's house, talking about rumors on the Internet, laughing and chatting.
To be honest, after the game with Qingyuan High School, Qi Feng's pressure has been reduced a lot. From the top eight to the top four, Yun Xi and Ying Nian Ling have successively demonstrated their strong personal strength. This time Tianling
The knockout competition has almost completely become their stage.
With the two of them here, whether it is Cangling High School or Tianling High School, Qi Feng has a lot of confidence.
As for things other than the competition, it is useless to worry too much at this time. They are very open-minded in these aspects.
Surprisingly, neither Yunfeng nor Qin Susheng came to urge them to attend meetings or practice today. Perhaps the two elders also realized that they might have to face something they had to face next.
They are not stupid, and they also know that Yun Xi will not be stupid. Since some things have been exposed, they must be prepared to bear the consequences. But luckily, everyone can be sure of one thing, that is, for Tianling Continent, Yun Xi will not be stupid.
The birth of Xi and Ying Nianling is definitely not a bad thing.
……
It's getting late, the sunset has arrived, and the sky turns blood red.
Everyone has dispersed from Yun Xi's room, and only Ying Nianling remains here.
The little girl slept all afternoon. Now she stretched herself out of bed after a full sleep. She opened her eyes and looked at Yun Xi. She found that she and Yun Xi were the only two people left in the room. Even Ye Nianhan and Ye Nianhan, who were usually by their side,
Xiao Lingyuan also disappeared.
"Yunxi, why are there only two of us?"
In the past, Ying Nianling would definitely not have cared about this, but we have been getting along with each other for so many years, and even a wooden person has feelings, let alone her who has always been taken care of by everyone.
Yun Xi rubbed her little head. Her long, snow-white hair was soft and smooth, with a satin-like feel.
"They have something to do, so it's just the two of us together tonight."
"Oh."
Ying Nianling didn't ask anything, just took out a lollipop and ate it.
Yun Xi indulged and scolded: "If you eat sweets as soon as you wake up, your teeth will be damaged."
"Nothing bad!"
Ying Nianling retorted seriously and opened her small mouth, revealing her neat teeth. Not to mention cavities, there was not even a hint of yellowing.
Yun Xi shook her head helplessly, and when she was about to say something else, someone suddenly knocked on the door.
"Dong dong dong!"
The knock on the door was soft and slow, obviously very polite.
Among Yun Xi's acquaintances, the only ones who would knock on the door like this were Lu Qi, Qin Susheng and Ye Nianhan. However, Lu Qi had just left not long ago, and Qin Susheng and Ye Nianhan would usually call themselves by the way when knocking on the door.
Therefore, Yun Xi easily judged that this person was not an acquaintance of her.
‘What is supposed to come will eventually come!’
Yun Xi patted her little face, took a deep breath, and said to Ying Nianling: "Get up quickly and get ready to go out."
"Okay!"
Ying Nianling stuffed the lollipop into her mouth and got out of bed with her mouth puffed out.
Yun Xi walked to the door and opened it as calmly as possible. As the door moved, a slightly familiar stranger came into view.
This is a woman who looks young. The reason why she is a slightly familiar stranger is because Yun Xi has seen her many times during this period, but does not know her name.
When Yun Xi saw this person, she knew that it was the Tianling Alliance who had come to visit her. She said hello respectfully: "Junior Yun Xi, I have met Lord Gui Du."
This person is one of the nine great governors who has been accompanying Wei Huating during this period.
Tang Xiaoshu smiled gently: "Hello, classmate Yun Xi. It's our first time meeting. No need to be so polite. Just call me Aunt Tang."
Regardless of watching from afar at the Zhutian Spiritual Field, this is indeed the first official meeting between the two.
After Yun Xi heard her words, she immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Tang Xiaoshu's words undoubtedly explained the current situation to her, that is, the Tianling Alliance not only has no malice towards them, but even has good intentions!
Also, with the level of caution of the Tianling Alliance, I am afraid that Yunxi and Ying Nianling have been investigated countless times. And now they can still show their power in the Tianling Awards, which shows that the Tianling Alliance actually does not think that
They will cause harm to Tianling Continent.
Under such a premise, the better they perform, the happier the Tianling Alliance will be.
But even so, there are some things that the Tianling Alliance still needs to understand.
Before Yun Xi could ask, Tang Xiaoshu took the initiative and said, "I'm here to find you and classmate Ying Nianling. The boss wants to see you."
The only one who can be called the boss by Tang Xiaoshu is the old man in green.
"Yes."
Yun Xi didn't show any hesitation and quickly agreed. She turned around and waved to Ying Nianling, who had just changed clothes: "Xiao Ying, come out soon. We are going out."
"Coming!"
Ying Nianling ran out quickly.
She stopped slightly in front of the door, looked up at this strange woman, her big eyes twitching.
Tang Xiaoshu looked at these two girls, one was dignified, the other was charming and naive, and both looked stunning. Even she, an old woman who had lived for thousands of years, couldn't help but feel moved.
Yun Xi reminded Ying Nianling: "Xiaoying, this is Aunt Tang."
The little girl bowed obediently and said crisply: "Hello, Aunt Tang."
Listening to the healing voice, Tang Xiaoshu couldn't help but smile.
"Let's go."
She waved her hand, and the three of them immediately disappeared.
……
When the surrounding scenes reappeared, Yun Xi had appeared in a completely unfamiliar environment.
This is a strange place full of retro buildings and technological equipment. Yun Xi looks at the surrounding furnishings and feels an indescribable sense of dissonance.
This is like a place where ancient architecture and modern technology merge. The fusion of the two eras made it difficult for her to adapt for a while.
In fact, this kind of architectural style can be found in many places in Tianling Continent, but those places are not as thoroughly integrated as here.
After all, although Tianling has developed technology, for people in this world, spiritual practice is the mainstream.
Tang Xiaoshu noticed Yun Xi's eyes looking around and said with a smile: "This is the headquarters of the Tianling Alliance. Compared with the outside world, the technology here is more powerful. Don't be surprised."
Of course Yun Xi will not be surprised. She has seen more high-tech things in her previous life, such as artificial intelligence and robots.
But these are only in terms of technology. If we really compare it in all aspects, any prince in Tianling Continent should be able to easily level the entire earth.
Tang Xiaoshu walked in front and led the way. Yun Xi held Ying Nianling's hand and followed behind her. The little girl was still eating a lollipop and looking around curiously with her big and smart eyes. She was very interested in some of the novel things here.
Curious.
Tang Xiaoshu led the two of them through the aisles and walked through the complicated buildings before stopping.
Seeing Tang Xiaoshu stop, Yun Xi also stopped. She raised her head and saw a staircase in front of her. The stairs extended upwards. This should be some kind of back mountain.
Tang Xiaoshu said: "Don't talk nonsense later."
Yun Xi nodded immediately and whispered to Ying Nianling to put away the lollipop, and the little girl was also obedient.
Tang Xiaoshu then led them up.
I don’t know how long they walked, but when the sunset was about to fade and the bright moon was about to rise, they finally arrived at their destination.
Yun Xi stood behind Tang Xiaoshu and looked forward. In front of him was a wide pavilion. The construction of the pavilion was particularly retro, but the decoration was simple and elegant.
In the center of the pavilion is a round stone table. The stone table is neither big nor small, with only six stone benches, and three people are already seated on it.
Yun Xi did not dare to focus her spiritual power on her pupils to look at them, but tried to see clearly through the moonlight.
Among the three people sitting in the seat, the one in the middle is Wei Huating, who has been appearing during the Tianling Shang period. The two people beside him are one who is fat and looks rich with a big belly, and the other is graceful and should be a woman. Yun Xi didn't speculate on anything, she just held Ying Nianling's little hand and followed Tang Xiaoshu quietly.
Tang Xiaoshu led the two of them outside the pavilion, saluted the three people inside the pavilion, and said, "Boss, I've brought you here."
The three people in the pavilion immediately turned around, and Yun Xi finally saw the appearance of the other two people clearly. The fat man had a kind face and looked a bit rich, while the graceful woman had a beautiful and cold face.
, but she has a temperament similar to that of a strong woman.
Yun Xi pulled Ying Nianling along to salute: "Junior Yun Xi, I have met three adults."
Ying Nianling, who bowed along with him, also followed suit and said, "Junior Ying Nianling, I have met three adults."
Wei Huating first looked at the two of them intently, then smiled slightly and said kindly: "Take a seat."
Yun Xi hurriedly said: "Thank you, Sir."
Although she knew that the identities of the three adults in front of her were not simple, since Wei Huating took the initiative to ask them to take a seat, Yun Xi could not refuse.
She held Ying Nianling's hand and sat down obediently, while Tang Xiaoshu bowed again and quietly retreated.
When Tang Xiaoshu's figure completely disappeared, only the two sisters Yun Xi and three important figures with aloof status were left in the large pavilion.
Yun Xi lowered his head slightly, not looking at the three adults, but also not trying to figure out their status. At this time, sincerity may not solve the problem, but it will definitely weaken the problem.
Ying Nianling, on the other hand, looked like a curious baby, looking left and right, and finally looked at the three big shots without fear.
After the five people were silent for a while, the pot-bellied man couldn't help but laugh: "These two girls are quite interesting. If I had known that this year's Tianling Reward Party would be so interesting, I should have taken the initiative to invite the alliance leader.
Order me to take charge."
Wei Huating chuckled: "It's not too late for you to apply now, their competition is not over yet."
The man shook his head: "If I host it now, the novelty will be gone."
The woman who had been watching Yun Xi and the two quietly spoke at this time. She said lightly: "If you want something new, I heard something happened at the Demonic Spirit Battlefield. You can go over and investigate."
The man said helplessly: "That's Dongfang's job. If I go there, I'm afraid I'll be kicked back."
Yun Xi listened to their conversation, and even if she didn't want to guess, she had to come to a conclusion at this moment.
Those who dare to talk to Wei Huating like this, and dare to call General Dongfang like this, the identities of these two people are obvious.
These are undoubtedly the other two of the three great Huatings.
The three great Huatings are not secretive existences in the world of spiritual cultivation. After seeing Wei Huating come to take charge of the Tianling Appreciation, Yun Xi once asked Qin Susheng for some information in this regard.
Then I learned that there are two men and one woman in the three major Huatings of the Tianling Alliance, and the most senior among them is undoubtedly Wei Huating.
Wei Huating's real name was Wei Guiyi, and he lived for more than 6,000 years. Even the leader of the alliance had to call him Uncle Wei.
The other two people are named Qiu Jinlai and Ruo Ganyu respectively. These two people are slightly inferior to Wei Guiyi in terms of qualifications, but they are also old monsters who have lived for thousands of years.
As for the realm of the three people, I am afraid only people with the status of the county king know this.
The three Huatings, three peerless experts in the spirit-killing realm, are sitting in front of Yun Xi. Yun Xi is praying silently in her heart, hoping that they will not find out that she is the soul of the demon saint.
"Yun Xi."
A vicissitudes of voice sounded, and Yun Xi immediately raised his head: "Here."
Wei Guiyi chuckled: "Relax, there is no need to be nervous."
‘I don’t want to be nervous...but I just can’t control it!’
Yun Xi felt helpless in her heart. This nervousness was due to being flattered by seeing a big shot, but also due to worries about her other identity.
But when the words came to an end, Yun Xi said smoothly: "I...I will try to be calm."
The three seniors looked at her. They were actually a little surprised by Yun Xi's way of speaking. This girl seemed a little nervous, but she didn't have the shyness and restraint.
Being able to maintain her own style in conversation gave them a good impression of her.
Wei Guiyi smiled lightly and said: "Let's drink tea first."
In addition to the three seniors, there are also two cups of hot tea placed on the stone table, which are obviously prepared for the two of them.
"Thank you, senior."
She will change the name of herself from "adult" to "senior". This is a response to Wei Guiyi's previous statement that there is no need to be nervous. At the same time, she also takes the initiative to increase the distance between herself and the three important figures.
Her brain is more flexible than everyone thinks.
Yun Xi reached out to pick up the teacup, placed a cup in front of Ying Nianling, and whispered to her to drink slowly.
The little girl nodded like a chicken pecking at rice, and curiously looked at the green-yellow tea in the cup. She had drank a lot of drinks, but she had never drank much tea.
Ying Nianling hesitated for a moment, and finally carefully stretched out her pink tongue and licked it gently.
"Chirp chirp chirp."
Ying Nianling sucked the tea on her tongue, then turned her head and looked at Yun Xi aggrievedly.
"Yunxi is bitter."
Yun Xi touched her head like a sister and explained in a low voice: "After the bitterness is over, it becomes sweet."
This is the first time for the three Huatings to come into contact with Ying Nianling. This girl is indeed the same as the news from her subordinates. She is a cute and cute little girl.
If we put aside her performance in the competition, everyone would never imagine that she is an adult over 20 years old.
However, twenty does not seem young, but it is still too young for a spiritual practitioner.
After Yun Xi comforted Ying Nianling, she gently picked up the tea cup and took a sip. She sipped the tea carefully for a while, and finally blinked her big, dazed eyes.
“Delicious!”
The three of them were immediately amused. Wei Guiyi shook his head: "You kid, you can't even lie. If you don't understand tea, just say it."
"Hey hey hey."
Yun Xi touched her head in embarrassment.
She really doesn’t understand tea ceremony, but she can still judge whether it tastes good or not. This tea is really good.
Behind this conversation, Yun Xi noticed that the three seniors seemed to be surprisingly friendly to her.
