In the dead of night, the lights in the Zi family's mansion were dim.
Xiao Nan sat cross-legged on the bed, closed his eyes and practiced. He calmed down and guided the weak spiritual power in his body to flow slowly through his meridians.
First, there was constant severe pain in the body, and then the familiar tingling feeling spread throughout the body. Xiao Nan felt extremely comfortable, and his whole body was light and airy, as if he was in the clouds.
Finally, the spiritual power flowed through every meridian, and then Xiao Nan's body shook, groaned softly, opened his eyes, and slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air.
That turbid air floated in the air and turned into black mist, all of which were impurities expelled from the body.
After running for a long time, there was no obvious change in the spiritual power compared to last night, which made Xiao Nan feel a little depressed. He couldn't help but secretly lamented that the speed of his cultivation was too slow!
Master is right, this path of cultivation requires perseverance and a tireless spirit. Indeed, nothing can be achieved overnight!
However, Xiao Nan's body continued to improve, expelling a layer of greasy impurities and exuding a foul odor.
He simply chose to ignore the stench on his body.
When he was in the Xuantian sect, he once stole a newly weaned piglet and used it to barbecue and improve his food. He could even endure it by lying in the smelly pig manure for a long time. Therefore, he felt that the stench expelled from his body was simply terrible.
When a small witch meets a big witch, it means nothing!
Xiao Nan got up, took a shower, changed into new clothes provided by the Zi family, and opened the door feeling refreshed.
It's broad daylight outside.
Xiao Nan stood at the door of the room, with his hands behind his back, and looked up at the sky.
The weather today is the same as yesterday, the sky is clear and cloudless.
Xiao Nan took a deep breath and suddenly felt very good.
In Zi's house, he had food, drink, shelter, and maids to serve him, and no one came to disturb his practice. Xiao Nan couldn't help but think to himself, this kind of life is really comfortable and comfortable!
He didn't wander around, he just stood at the door of the room for a while, then turned back and walked into the room, closed the door, came to the bed and sat cross-legged.
He suddenly saw an extinguished oil lamp on the table, and immediately said earnestly: "Brother Deng, if you want to become a peerless master, you must not be lazy. You have to be like me, work tirelessly and practice hard all the time.
ah!"
After despising the oil lamp, Xiao Nan closed his eyes and continued to practice. Ever since he was able to gather spiritual power in his meridians, he has now become somewhat obsessed with practicing the "Tai Shang Enlightenment Manual".
Three days passed like this.
On the third night, Zifeng came to the door of Xiao Nan's room, knocked on the door, and asked: "Is Mr. Xiao here?"
He has already learned Xiao Nan's name.
Xiao Nan, who was sitting cross-legged on the bed to practice, opened his eyes, but had no intention of getting out of bed and opening the door. He just said calmly: "Go and reply to the Zi family master and say that I agreed to his conditions. When the time comes for the finals, I will directly
Just send someone over to notify me."
Zifeng outside the door said: "Then I won't disturb Mr. Xiao. Farewell!"
In the past three days, everything has been peaceful here in Xiao Nan, and he couldn't help but admire the Chen family in his heart.
After killing two young men, the Chen family could still hold back and keep silent. There was no movement and no trouble came to the Zi family.
This Chen family is a bit extraordinary! Xiao Nan thought to himself, then smiled slightly and said to himself: "No matter what you say, the Chen family and the Yun family are just ordinary warriors. They can just block the water and cover it with the earth!"
Xiao Nan said and closed his eyes again and continued to practice "The Supreme Sutra of Enlightenment".
In the study, Zilan stood in front of the window, looking at the sky outside. Behind him, stood a girl covered with a purple veil.
The girl has picturesque features, is wearing a white dress and white dress, and has a curvy and graceful figure. She is the girl who went to the lake with Xiao Nan that day and gave her the token as a gift.
Zilan said in a deep voice: "Mo'er, in this competition to recruit a bride, that beast Yun Sheng of the Yun family is indeed going to participate, and it is said that he is bound to win the title!"
It turns out that this girl with a purple veil is Zi Mo, the eldest daughter of the Zi family, and she is also the protagonist of the Zi family's martial arts competition. If the winner of the competition passes her test again, he can enter the Zi family and marry her.
.
Although few people have witnessed Zimo's appearance, she is one of the top three beauties on the Flying Flower List in Ba Jian City. If she wants to be ranked on the Flying Flower List, the first requirement is that she must have the majority of people.
Needless to say, Zi Mo’s appearance is recognized by her beautiful appearance!
The head of the Zi family is one of the two deputy city lords of Bajian City, so there are as many young people as crucian carp crossing the river who want to become the son-in-law of the Zi family!
Yun Sheng, who dominates the Yun family in Sword City, is naturally no exception!
Of course, with Yun Sheng's innate Dzogchen state, she did not have to participate in the preliminaries like Xiao Nan, but got a token to directly enter the finals, and became one of the most popular candidates to win this time.
The other popular candidate appears to be very mysterious. He only appeared once at the Zi Family Night Banquet. He is a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy.
No one has seen that young man before, and they don't know where he comes from, but his strength has become more and more popular due to the spread of some caring people.
The only time he appeared, he killed two young disciples of the Chen family, a martial arts family in Bajian City, on the spot, but the Chen family rarely chose to remain silent!
There are rumors in Bajian City that the mysterious young man has unfathomable strength and is ruthless. He will kill people if he disagrees with her! He will also become Yun Sheng's strongest opponent on the road to winning the championship!
Zi Mo's eyes showed hatred, and she whispered: "I will definitely kill that beast this time to avenge my mother and brother!"
Zilan said: "Your mother and unborn brother were killed by that beast. Maybe this time we can get revenge! But it wasn't you who took action. Dad had already changed his plan and negotiated terms with someone. He wanted to invite someone.
He took action and killed that beast!"
Zi Mo wondered: "Changed the plan? Who is that person who can make dad so confident?"
Zi Lan narrowed her eyes slightly and said, "It's the young man who killed the two brothers of the Chen family during the previous night banquet incident!"
Zi Mo frowned and asked, "Is it him? Is he really as powerful as the rumors say?"
A smile appeared on Zilan's lips and she said: "No, he is much more powerful than the rumors say. Even your father and I are no match for him!"
Zi Mo's mind was shaken, and she became more and more interested in the young man, so she asked softly: "Dad, have you ever fought with him?"
Zi Lan had a look of excitement on her face and said: "Yes, I fought with that young man in this study room. I tried my best at that time, but I couldn't even touch a corner of his clothes, and
I can feel that he is relaxed and still has energy left! I can only describe him as unfathomable, and he looks like he is only sixteen or seventeen years old!"
Hearing Zilan's high praise for that mysterious young man, a figure standing by the lake and reciting poems by ancient immortals flashed through Zimo's mind. That person seemed to be sixteen or seventeen years old.
Zi Mo asked again: "Where is that young man now? What kind of conditions did dad negotiate with him?"
Zilan looked at her daughter Zimo and said, "That young man is now living in our Zi family mansion. As for agreeing to his conditions..."
Zilan then stated all the conditions for the agreement.
Zi Mo's face suddenly became serious and she asked in a low voice: "Dad, are you really willing to pay such a high price?"
Zi Lan said firmly: "In order to avenge your mother and unborn brother, I have been planning for a long time and will do whatever it takes! And I feel that the Yun family will attack our Zi family sooner or later. After the death of our ancestor,
, they immediately secretly captured your mother and tortured her to death! Now that I think about it, this was just to test our bottom line! However, what dad promised him was because he was afraid that he would wrong you..."
Zi Mo's eyes were red and she said softly: "Dad, if I can really get revenge, I won't feel wronged! Does dad know the name and origin of that young man?"
There was a trace of relief in Zilan's eyes, and she said: "That young man has agreed to the conditions I proposed today. However, his origin is not clear. I only know that his name is Xiao Nan, but I don't think he is a person who breaks his promise.
, I am willing to make a bet! If the bet is right, we will minimize the risk, and if the bet is wrong, there will be no loss!"
When Zi Mo heard this, her heart was shocked, and a surprised smile quickly melted in her eyes!
