The Xing family's ancestral tomb is neither far nor close to Blue Maple City. Even if a warrior with excellent health runs at full speed, it will take an hour to complete the distance.
Luo Jun was an eighth-level warrior, and he was not seriously injured. It took him nearly an hour to reach the gate of Blue Maple City at full speed.
After entering Blue Maple City and running back to Luo's house covered in blood, Luo Jun surprised many residents of Blue Maple City along the way.
"Isn't this Luo Jun from the Luo family? Why does he look like this?"
"It seems that he is injured. He must have just fought with a strongman outside the city!"
"To be able to beat an eighth-grade warrior like this, I guess the opponent is not easy!"
"Who dares to attack the Luo family near Blue Maple City? Could it be the Xue family?"
Amidst the discussions of countless residents of Blue Maple City, Luo Jun entered the Luo Family Courtyard and was brought to the head of the family, Luo Biao, by the guards from the Luo Family Inner Courtyard.
At this time, Luo Biao was teaching Luo Heng, the Luo family's genius, in the Luo family's martial arts field. When Luo Jun plopped down and knelt in front of him, he frowned with a look of displeasure on his face.
"Why are you in such a mess? You still have sword wounds on your body. Could it be that you had a fight with a master of the Xue family?"
Luo Biao's tone was as cold as the weather at this time. Even though he was aloof in the Luo family, he didn't have the slightest bit of kindness towards the disciples of the Luo family.
"It's Xing Nan!"
Luo Jun's head was close to the ground and he didn't dare to raise it even a little bit.
"That trash?"
Luo Heng, who was dressed in white brocade clothes, held his hands in front of his chest and said with a smile: "That trash can hurt you like this? Is it because your brain is broken and you are talking nonsense here, or is it because of your eighth-level warrior cultivation?
Too much water?"
Luo Jun was trembling and did not dare to answer.
"Where's Luo Rong?" Luo Biao frowned even more. He knew that Luo Jun and Luo Rong always worked together, so he asked.
"Luo Rong, he..."
After Luo Jun hesitated for a moment, he replied bravely: "I'm afraid Luo Rong is... already dead!"
"What?"
Luo Biao's narrowed eyes immediately widened. He then sneered again and said, "Luo Jun, do you think I'm old and confused?"
"You and Luo Rong are both eighth-level warriors. Xing Nan is just a third-level loser. He was seriously injured and almost lost his life not long ago. He can kill one of you two eighth-level warriors and injure the other? This is what I have learned over the years.
The most unfunny joke I’ve ever heard!”
Luo Heng also responded. Like Luo Biao, he didn't believe Luo Jun's words at all.
"Then Xing Nan is really strong now, he seems to be... Ninth Grade!"
Luo Jun didn't believe that Xing Nan would suddenly become so powerful, but that was the fact.
"Where is Xing Nan now?" Luo Biao asked.
Luo Jun then detailed everything that happened after meeting Xing Nan this morning. However, when he said that he escaped, he did not tell the truth. Instead, he said that Xing Nan was in good condition and that he knew he was invincible. In order to
I came back to report the news, so I ran away and came back.
"Then if Xing Nan is really as powerful as you say, can you still escape?"
Luo Heng touched his chin and listened to Luo Jun's narrative, then asked with contempt.
"this……"
Luo Jun was speechless.
Luo Heng was about to continue questioning, but Luo Biao waved his hand to stop him.
"I will send someone to investigate this matter. You can go and recuperate first."
Luo Biao waved to Luo Jun again.
After Luo Jun left with a worried look on his face, Luo Heng frowned and said: "Grandpa, what Luo Jun said is too exaggerated! That Xing Nan is obviously a third-level warrior, and he has just saved a small life. In just a few months,
In the past, it was absolutely impossible for him to directly step from the third level to the ninth level!"
Luo Biao nodded first, and then said with doubts on his face: "That being said, even if Luo Jun lied, why would he involve Xing Nan?"
Luo Heng was silent. He subconsciously thought that Xing Nan would never be able to turn around, but he was also slightly nervous. If Luo Jun hadn't lied, then Xing Nan would most likely be a ninth-level warrior, not far behind himself.
, the advantage he has always been proud of will no longer exist... He is not afraid that Xing Nan will retaliate, but if Xing Nan, who he called a waste, really reaches the realm of a ninth-level warrior, it will be difficult for him to accept it.
***
I don't know how long it took, but Xing Nan finally woke up from the coma.
Just as he was about to move, severe pain shot through his body.
He lay down again, thinking that he should be surrounded by cold and biting snow, but in fact it was a warm and soft quilt.
He first tried hard to recall what happened before he fell into coma, then opened his eyes and glanced around.
This is a wooden wing. It is not large in area, no more than three feet in length and width, but it is very warm and elegantly decorated.
There is a goose-yellow carpet on the floor, and beautiful paintings of landscapes, fish and insects are hung on the walls. There is a mahogany Eight Immortals table in the room, and a tea set on the table.
The teapot is still steaming, and the whole room is filled with the fragrance of tea.
There is also a long table against the wall, and there are several flower pots on the table. Even in the severe cold winter, the flowers in the flower pots are still blooming.
There is also a dressing table near the window with a bright and clean bronze mirror, a comb, and several small boxes.
This was clearly a woman's boudoir decoration, and Xing Nan couldn't help but frown.
"Am I saved by a woman?"
Xing Nan secretly rejoiced and thought to himself: "God bless me, I didn't have the misfortune to meet anyone from the Luo and Xue families!"
After scanning the room again, Xing Nan saw a small animal like a ferret, curled up and lying at the foot of his bed.
The little guy also raised his head and looked at Xing Nan with a pair of eyes like black gems.
Xing Nan grinned at the little guy, but he didn't expect that the little thing actually flew towards the door like an arrow from a string after a whooshing sound, and easily opened the door and disappeared.
"What a timid guy."
Xing Nan shook his head and then lay still on the bed again.
Not long after, the half-open door was pushed open completely, and a woman wearing a white fur windbreaker and a blue palace dress walked into the room.
The cold wind blew from outside the room, enveloping it with a fragrant fragrance.
What surprised Xing Nan was that the ferret-like little guy was currently being held in the arms of the woman, staring at him with obviously curious eyes.
The woman has a graceful figure, even if she is wrapped in a windbreaker, she cannot hide her graceful figure.
Her face is fair and tender, her eyes are clear, as bright as stars, and her lips are as red as a ripe peach. She should be a stunning beauty, but there is a tattoo-like scar on the left side of her forehead, which extends from her forehead to her chin.
It made her entire left cheek look a bit shocking.
At one glance, Xing Nan felt sorry in his heart. Without that scar, this woman would have been absolutely stunning.
"you're awake."
The woman walked into the room and did not come to the bedside. Instead, she sat next to the Eight Immortals Table, poured herself a cup of fragrant tea, brought it to her lips, and sipped it carefully.
"Xing Nan, thank you for saving my life..."
While Xing Nan was speaking, he wanted to stand up and thank him, but unfortunately he could not get up even though he endured severe pain.
"You'd better lie down and be honest. Don't lose your life before I even settle the score with you."
The woman glanced at Xing Nan, and then said: "Xing Nan... I guess he is from the Xing family in Lanfeng City, right?"
"Exactly."
Xing Nan responded and did not force himself to get up.
"In order to save you, I spent a pill to unblock the collaterals and nourish the body, and a lot of medicine to treat trauma. I will bear this debt on your head. It should be okay, right?"
The woman put down the teacup in her hand and said in a very calm tone.
"Of course there is no problem with this. As the saying goes, a drop of water should be repaid by a spring, not to mention a life-saving grace." Xing Nan nodded in response.
"I don't need you to repay your life-saving kindness, but at least you can't let me lose money. You just need to pay off the medicine."
The woman waved her hand nonchalantly, and then said: "The previous rescue only stabilized your injury. If you want to truly recover, you have two options. One is to lie in bed and recuperate for a few days, and then take three or four doses."
A pill of Tongluo Health Pill is almost enough. The second option is to take a small pill."
"These two choices should have different results, right?" Xing Nan asked.
"Haha, since they are two choices, they naturally have different results."
The woman nodded and chuckled, explaining: "Both options can allow you to recover, but if you choose the first option, you will no longer be able to practice martial arts after recovery and will become a mortal. After all, your muscles and bones have been broken too many; if
Taking Xiao Huan Dan can help you reconnect your bones and muscles, allowing you to continue practicing after recovery. I guess you must have suffered a very serious injury before. Although you recovered, you only saved one life. This time you were seriously injured.
It won’t be easy to recover.”
"I choose the second option." Xing Nan said without hesitation.
"You are also from a big family, so you must know the value of Xiao Huan Dan. I am a businessman. I saved you before and gave you credit. Now that you have woken up, we have to make it clear."
The woman's tone was indifferent, but there was a smile on her face.
"Today's kindness will be repaid in the future!" Xing Nan said firmly.
"But you are penniless, how can I trust you?"
The woman shook her head and said: "I don't believe in empty words, and you shouldn't say anything like there is a huge treasure hidden somewhere."
Xing Nan really wanted to say that the Xing family still had a huge treasure, but when he heard what the woman said, he had to hold back the words.
"Right now, my Kirigakure Inn is in need of helpers. Once you recover from your injuries, you can work here to pay off your debts, and then leave on your own once the wages are enough to clear the medicine. How about that?"
After a moment of silence, the woman suddenly made a suggestion.
Xing Nan smiled bitterly and said, "That's all I have to do, thank you very much!"
"Then you should rest first, nourish yourself for a few days, and then take Xiao Huan Dan."
After saying these words, the woman stood up, hugged the cute little guy and left the room.
In the next few days, Xing Nan lived a very comfortable life. He kept lying on a soft and comfortable big bed and had three meals a day.
The food not only tastes great, but also has the effect of nourishing qi and blood.
When he could barely stand up and move his body, the woman asked him to take a golden pill.
That golden pill is the Xiao Huan Dan, and its value is higher than that of the Body Tempering Dan.
The medicinal power of Xiao Huan Dan was extraordinary. Xing Nan meditated deeply and worked hard to digest the medicinal power. Only two hours later, he felt the pain in his body gradually disappear.
Looking inside, he saw his broken tendons and bones, slowly being reconnected under the influence of the medicine...
