Xie family, ancestral home.
The place with the strongest aura in Hongzhou is also the core of Hongzhou’s power.
The Hongzhou Martial Arts Temple is located here, surrounded by the ancestral residence of the Xie family, and the Xie family is also uniquely blessed to enjoy the baptism of the true martial arts of the Martial Arts Temple. Year after year, strong men are born, making the Xie family even stronger!
Nowadays, the power of the Xie family is ranked among the best in the entire continent, and in the southwest region, even just stamping one's feet can cause a tremor.
The forces that can control a super large state have a terrifyingly deep foundation, accumulated over at least tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of years.
Some even date back to a previous era!
The Xie family is also among the most powerful at this level.
Xie Shiying rarely set foot in the ancestral home. Although her surname was Xie, her bloodline was distant and her status was even more humble. A child born of a maid was not qualified to live in the ancestral home.
Today, the head of the family summoned Xie Shiying and she was able to come here.
The stewards of the ancestral home had never given Xie Shiying a good look in the past. They all knew that Xie Shiying was not valued by the head of the family, so they were not afraid of anything. Being able to show off her power in front of these so-called young masters and ladies was also a great psychological satisfaction for them.
But this time, he showed a rare smile, and introduced Xie Shiying into the courtyard with a friendly attitude. Finally, he stopped outside a very elegant small courtyard.
Obviously, Xie Shiying broke through the nine-story tower and passed the family test, giving Xie Shiying a different weight than in the past!
"The master of the house is inside," the steward informed and then left.
This place may look like nothing, but if you look closely, you can see the meticulous care everywhere. Every blade of grass, every flower, and the placement of every piece of rockery has been carefully measured and selected.
It doesn't look like luxury, but it is thousands of times more luxurious than the so-called luxury that can be seen!
The Xie family has long been extravagant and has invested heavily in the status of a so-called wealthy family. On the contrary, their investment in martial arts has not increased.
This is the arrogance of the Xie family, and they are arrogant to the core!
Xie Shiying took a deep breath, walked in, crossed the flowing stream, and came to a pavilion in the middle.
Here, sitting is a middle-aged man in rich clothes, who is very majestic. Sitting there, it is like an insurmountable mountain, which makes people want to worship him.
This person is the current head of the Xie family, Xie Junjie!
"Did you pass the assessment?" Xie Junjie sat there, watching the fish swimming in the pond, without looking back at Xie Shiying.
Xie Shiying saluted respectfully, "Reporting to my father, yes, I broke through the nine-story tower and passed the family test."
As she said that, Xie Shiying couldn't help but look forward to it. She was eager to be recognized by her father and eager to prove herself!
But this time, she did it, she felt the change in others' view of her, I believe Xie Junjie did the same!
"Hmph, you are trying your best. It seems that you are not satisfied with the family's arrangements." Xie Junjie snorted lightly.
Xie Shiying looked anxious when she heard this, and she quickly said, "Father, I..."
However, Xie Junjie waved his hand to stop Xie Shiying from continuing, "That's all, it doesn't matter, as long as someone sends it over, at most I will get a few complaints from my second brother."
Xie Shiying was silent and looked complicated.
But obviously, Xie Junjie didn't think highly of her because she passed the test. Instead, he was a little unhappy with her disobedience to family arrangements.
Could it be that in Xie Junjie's eyes, she was really inferior to the servants around her?
"Did you use the thousand-story sword light in the nine-story tower?" Xie Junjie said calmly.
Xie Shiying's heart tightened, and she quickly knelt down and said, "Father, Shiying is guilty!"
Divine skills cannot be practiced without permission from the family.
And Xie Shiying is not qualified to practice.
"Did Jun Hao say where he went?" Xie Junjie asked lightly. He knew that it was Xie Junhao who handed the thousand-layered golden sword light to Xie Shiying.
"Uncle Qi didn't say anything," Xie Shiying shook her head.
"What a troublesome guy," Xie Junjie snorted. Xie Junhao acted unscrupulously and brought shame to the Xie family.
"Uncle Qi..."
"Shut up, you are not qualified to express your opinions to your elders." Xie Junjie snorted coldly.
Xie Shiying's body stiffened and she did not dare to speak.
"I heard that you took on an unknown boy as your teacher?" Xie Junjie asked, faintly angry.
"Father, please don't be angry. Master is very powerful. It is because of him that I can pass the test of the nine-story tower. I..."
"Shut up, do you know what you are talking about? When did the children of my Xie family fall to the point where they need guidance from a mere junior? If word spreads, won't they become a laughing stock!"
"You'd better remember your identity. Even if you have a humble status, as long as your surname is Xie, my Xie family will arrange for you to be taught by famous teachers. This is the right path! I didn't expect that you can't even understand this, and you are so complacent.
You are so proud, you are so stupid and pitiful!" Xie Junjie shouted sternly.
Xie Shiying's body was trembling, her eyes were red, and her fingers were clenched tightly.
"But, but I became stronger and I passed the nine-story tower!"
"It's ridiculous. Why do you think you have achieved this point by yourself? By relying on your so-called master? Neither!"
"The reason you are as strong as you are now is because half of my blood flows in your body. Only with this half of my blood can you have such a talent. Without this, you are nothing!"
"It's a pity that half of the low-quality miscellaneous blood was mixed in. Otherwise, your sword tomb would not have been opened only half way, and the powerful blood of my Xie family would have been wasted!" Xie Junjie said coldly.
Xie Shiying clenched her teeth, tears were rolling, and she was determined to
Strong enough not to fall.
"Remember, don't talk about master again in the future. What can you learn from an inferior person? It's just a waste of the talent I gave you!" Xie Junjie shouted in a deep voice.
Xie Shiying kept lowering her head, unable to see her expression. After a while, she said hoarsely, "Yes."
"You have passed the nine-story pagoda, and you are qualified to practice the Thousand-layer Golden Sword Light. From now on, you will be allowed to continue to use it. Later, go to the Sutra Pavilion to receive the advanced martial arts from His Majesty the Golden Emperor: Thousand Swords Returning to the Clan."
The Golden Emperor's Thousand Swords Return to the Sect is an advanced divine skill that can only be practiced after the Thousand Layers of Golden Sword Light has been cultivated to the extreme. It is ranked third grade!
Even in the Xie family, it is considered an extremely powerful inheritance. It is indeed a great grace for Xie Shiying to be able to practice this magical skill as a maid.
"...Thank you father," Xie Shiying whispered through gritted teeth.
"After this, go to the Forgotten Sea of ​​Fog," Xie Junjie said calmly, with a flash of pride on his face, "Your eldest brother has the qualifications to become a king. For this reason, the family must do its best to pave the way for him. Things in the Forgotten Sea of ​​Fog,
To be useful to your elder brother, you must go all out to find a way for your elder brother, do you understand?"
The Wangchuan Sea of ​​Fog is a desperate place. The Xie family has invested heavily in it and has already suffered heavy casualties!
"Father, that's the end of the world..."
"Hmph, for your eldest brother to be king and for the Xie family to continue to be strong for thousands of years, it doesn't matter if you make a little sacrifice. Since your surname is Xie, you must take responsibility!"
"Okay, let's go down, because you and I are in a bad mood today. After making preparations, let's go to Wangchuan Wuhai as soon as possible!"
Xie Shiying walked out, her eyes dull.
She has worked hard all the way from childhood to adulthood and has never relaxed, just to gain Xie Junjie's recognition, to win glory for her mother, and to give her a status.
But it seems that no matter what she does, nothing will change.
Xie Junjie only has eyes for her eldest brother, the future new king of the Xie family!
"Master, what should I do?" Xie Shiying looked up at the sky. She really wanted to go to Lin Chen, but she knew she couldn't.
Continuing to have contact with Lin Chen will bring disaster to Lin Chen. She can no longer be willful.
"Father, would you be happy if I came back from the Sea of ​​Mist in the Forgotten River?" Xie Shiying murmured.
She turned around and walked towards the Scripture Collection Pavilion.
…
Lin Chen was currently on the flying treasure ship heading to Mutian Drinking Blood State.
In Mutian Yinxue Prefecture, there is no large-scale teleportation array open to the public, and the last section of the road can only be passed by flying treasure ships.
Lin Chen could fly over by himself. With his speed, he could be on top of the treasure ship.
However, Mu Tianyinxue State is in a special situation this time, and a war between good and evil will break out, and all forces will be involved.
Especially those states and territories that have suffered heavy losses in the sea of ​​suffering,
He was even more filled with hatred and vowed to find out the blood and uproot him.
With such a general trend, Mutianyinxue Prefecture will definitely become a battlefield.
To be continued...
