"Haha, there is no way. Since the young lady has given that task, if the old man runs back before I finish it, wouldn't he be blamed to death by the young lady?" The old man raised his head and said with a smile, that old face was clearly that of Ling Ying!
The girl pursed her lips and smiled, thinking of the young man who made her worried. Her cold voice slowly became softer. She glanced at Ling Ying, and immediately a shy blush appeared on her cheeks that would make the whole Jia Nan Academy go crazy. She said softly, "Elder Ling, how is he?"
"Young lady, you mean Master Xiao Yan, right?" Ling Ying replied knowingly. The blush on the girl's cheeks became more and more intense, and she couldn't help but laugh out loud. It seemed that the little guy named Xiao Yan was the only one who could transform the elegant lady into a normal girl from her refined temperament.
No, maybe it is wrong to call Xiao Yan a little guy now, but it should be called a young strong man!
"After Master Xiao Yan left Wutan City..." Ling Ying hesitated for a moment, sorted out the order of words, and then began to speak slowly.
It turns out that Ling Ying has been following Xiao Yan in secret for the past six months, secretly protecting Xiao Yan's safety.
Of course, Xiao Yan had already discovered this when he left Wutan City, but he never pointed it out from beginning to end.
"Miss's vision is indeed extraordinary. Who could have imagined that in this barren and remote Northwest Region continent, such a genius who surpasses the entire continent would appear. Half a year ago, he was just struggling in Dou Qi Third Stage. Half a year later, he has become an unprecedented young Dou Zong strong man!" Ling Ying then added.
"We, Gu Clan, and even the entire Ancient Eight Clans combined have not heard of such a genius in a thousand years."
"Hehe." Listening to Ling Ying's compliment, Xun'er smiled sweetly, as if he was praising himself. However, the next second, the smile on Xun'er's face faded and became a little playful.
"Little Doctor Immortal, a young sixth-grade alchemist? Tsk tsk, it seems that such a genius alchemist can only be found in Pill Tower, right? Xiao Yan, brother is quite good. He can even summon such a strong person. The most important thing is the beautiful young master. There are also Qing Lin and Jade-Green Snake Three-Flower Pupils, she is also a beautiful loli." She opened the black hair hanging down in front of her forehead with her slender fingers. There seemed to be a faint killing intent in the girl's bright eyes. When she looked at Ling Ying, she suddenly felt the hairs on her back stand up.
This is the first time Ling Ying has seen such a young lady. It's really scary!
"That's it~" Xun'er finally sighed, "Is brother Xiao Yan already a strong man Dou Zong? It seems that I also need to improve my fighting spirit during this period. Otherwise, I'm afraid Xun'er will be squeezed away from brother Xiao Yan by those beautiful girls~"
"Ahem..." Ling Ying coughed twice and immediately changed the subject. "I think, maybe in the next month or two, Master Xiao Yan will come to the Jia Nan Academy. By then, it will relieve the young lady's lovesickness."
Hearing this, although the girl knew everything, she also restrained her originally vague murderous intention. Instead, she put a gentle smile on her lips and raised her head slightly. The thin figure of the young man slowly appeared in her mind. She hadn't seen him for more than half a year. Can we finally see him again?
There was a little warmth in her heart. After a long time, the girl lowered her head, glanced at Ling Ying in front of her, moved her lotus steps slightly, and walked towards the foot of the mountain.
"Elder Ling, during this time, you should find a place to rest outside the Jia Nan Academy. If there is nothing urgent, there is no need to sneak into the academy. Otherwise, if those old guys find out, I'm afraid they will cause trouble again. Their group of Old Madman, although we sell our family's face, we are very tough on certain rules. Regarding the academy's rules, there are only a few people on this continent who can make them give in." The girl's figure gradually disappeared among the leaves, but her voice still hovered in place.
"Haha, okay, if anything happens, just blow Bee Flute, old man, and I will be there immediately." He nodded with a smile, and Ling Ying twisted his body and turned into a shadow, which merged with the shadow of a big tree again, and finally gradually disappeared.
The girl slowly walked down the back hill, her light blue back finally forming an alluring silhouette under the faint sunlight.
"Haha, Xun'er, what a coincidence, you have just come down from the mountain to practice?" As the girl walked quietly, a gentle voice suddenly sounded from the side. The girl stopped and looked up, but she saw something not far away. At the foot of the mountain, a handsome young man wearing a white shirt was standing with a gentle smile. With such an impressive face and a gentle smile, even a strange girl who met him for the first time would not be able to help but let down some of his wariness.
"Yes." Xun'er looked at the upright young man in white, but his cheeks were not too soft due to his outstanding appearance. Although she also knew that this young man was not the kind of man who relied solely on appearance to make a living. His strength was also extremely high among the Jia Nan Academy, and to be able to stand out from the outstanding students selected from all over the country, he could be called a man of the young generation Jia Nan Academy.
Xun'er's plain greeting did not change the expression of the young man in white. He chuckled and took two steps forward. Just as he was about to take a step closer to talk, the former was the first to speak and blocked his words: "Bai Shan Senior, Xun'er has something to do for the time being, so I won't chat with you anymore. See you later."
The girl smiled slightly, then turned around and walked towards another path. However, before she had taken a few steps, another voice sounded.
"Xun'er, you are here again." Listening to this voice as soft as water, a soft smile appeared on Xun'er's face. He looked back at the mature woman walking from the side and said with a smile, "Instructor Ruo Lin, are you looking for me?"
Hearing this name, it turned out that the person who came was actually Instructor Ruo Lin who went to Wutan City for enrollment half a year ago. At this moment, after some preparation, she appeared to be more mature than two years ago.
Instructor Ruo Lin approached Xun'er, patted the latter's head helplessly, and said, "In half a month, we will be Advancement Competition of the college. You should know that as long as you pass the college If you take the competition, you are qualified to enter Inner Academy. There are only fifty places in the academy every year. With your cultivation level, there will be absolutely no problem if you enter Inner Academy this year."
"The sixteen-year-old Dou Ling, even if placed in the Inner Academy, is unprecedented. In terms of strength alone, even if placed in the Inner Academy, he is still one of the top talents."
"It seems that I want to take advantage of you as mentor this year."
"Teacher, maybe you will see other surprises then?" Xun'er said with a playful smile.
"Other surprises?" Ruolin was stunned for a moment, then seemed to react, "Are you saying that Xiao Yan guy will also come back by then?!"
"It's a pity that even if that little bastard comes back, his current strength will probably only be promoted to the high-level Dou Master, right? With such strength, he is not qualified to enter Inner Academy."
"Humph, mentor, you will know when the time comes." Xun'er smiled and pretended to be mysterious.
"Okay then, I'll sign up for that little bastard." Looking at Xun'er's appearance, Ruolin finally gritted her teeth and said, "If that little bastard doesn't come back by then, hum!"
"Instructor Ruo Lin, don't worry, brother Xiao Yan will definitely come here this year." Xun'er quickly hugged Ruolin's arm and said with a smile.
"I wonder how much confidence your little girl has in that little bastard? He has been absent from training in the academy for half a year. Could it be that his training speed outside is faster than the training models in the academy that have been evaluated by all the predecessors?" Instructor Ruo Lin said helplessly, "To successfully obtain a quota, at least Great Dou Master's strength is required, and this is only if he is lucky and does not foresee some abnormality in advance."
"Furthermore, Advancement Competition this time is not as simple as before. There are nearly three hundred people in the entire college who are qualified to compete. It is really difficult to break out without a few brushes." Instructor Ruo Lin curled her lips and said. She was always a little bit worried about the prickly student who dared to let her go.
"Relax, mentor, brother Xiao Yan will definitely bring you a big surprise." Xun'er took Instructor Ruo Lin's arm and smiled coquettishly.
"Oh, I really can't do anything about you. I keep talking about that guy all day long. There are quite a few boys who are better than him, Jia Nan Academy, for example." At this point, Instructor Ruo Lin suddenly glanced sideways at Bai Shan, who was standing beside him with a smile.
Xun'er smiled, but it was as if he hadn't heard anything.
"I knew you wouldn't pay attention." As if he knew the effect, Instructor Ruo Lin also took back the joke and whispered, "Let's go, it's almost time for morning class. Come back with me. I think you don't want to be entangled by Bai Shan here, right?"
Smiling and nodding, Xun'er pulled Instructor Ruo Lin. The two whispered to each other and walked slowly towards the other side of the trail.
The young man in white had been standing quietly by the path, looking at the two people who were gradually going away with a smile. After a while, the smile on his face finally faded a little. His slender fingers casually pinched a withered yellow leaf that fell from the top of the tree, and said lightly, "Xiao Yan? Are you the freshman who took half a year off? Oh, okay, just let me see, what qualifications do you have to have Xun'er, a mediocre girl like you, not qualified to have you?
After saying this, Bai Shan slowly turned around, and the fingers behind him suddenly flicked on the leaves. Suddenly, yellow shadows shot out, and finally stuck on a boulder in the distance like lightning. Nearly half of the seemingly fragile leaves shot into the hard boulder.
At the same time, Jia Ma Empire, Cloud Mist Sect square.
Everyone around, whether they were Cloud Mist Sect elder disciples or Jia Ma Empire strong men in the sea of trees not far away, were looking solemnly at the two people who were about to fight in the square.
Everyone looked inexplicable.
Nalan Yanran is holding the light green long sword tightly in his jade hand, and the light green Xiao Feng curls are rolling and floating on the sword body. In the wind, the sharp wind blades stretch and retract, and occasionally shoot out, leaving huge sword marks on the hard bluestone. The sword body gradually moves up, pointing at Xiao Yan in the distance. The sharp sword edge is reflected in the sunlight, giving off an awe-inspiring light.
In an instant, Three-Star Dou Emperor's aura completely exploded!
Across the square, Xiao Yan had a slight smile on his face. He raised his hand and pulled out Heavy Xuan Ruler from behind. At the same time, Three-Star Dou Emperor's aura erupted all over his body.
Ignoring the cool voices of reason coming from all around, Nalan Yanran immediately understood what this guy meant after seeing the aura of Three-Star Dou Emperor burst out from Xiao Yan.
After taking a deep breath, I saw a pair of Dou Qi Wings appearing behind Nalan Yanran.
The next moment, the whole person turned into a stream of light, and the long sword attacked Xiao Yan!
Seeing this, Xiao Yan also raised Heavy Xuan Ruler to attack.
In an instant, the long sword in Nalan Yanran's hand was cut horizontally in an extremely natural manner. With the help of the body's impact, several small wind blades had taken the lead to leave the sword and cut towards Xiao Yan's neck.
The fast-impacting figure suddenly stopped, and the giant Big Black ruler was slightly raised. With the clanging sound and a series of extremely dazzling sparks, those wind blades completely dissipated without even blocking the slightest bit of Xiao Yan's attack.
After resisting the wind blade, Xiao Yan raised his eyes slightly and waved his arms suddenly. Heavy Xuan Ruler brought up a fierce force and smashed it behind him. The pressure of the force pressed the dress on Nalan Yanran's body tightly against the skin, outlining the slender waist.
Feeling the whirring oppressive energy behind him, Nalan Yanran raised his eyebrows lightly, as if he was surprised by the sensitivity of the other party. He stabbed out with the long sword in his hand. The light green long sword left a cyan arc shadow in the empty air. The sharp sword tip seemed to penetrate the air barrier. With a crisp sound of "ding", the sword tip pointed straight at the heavy ruler that came from across the way. The two touched each other, and the power contained in the giant ruler was revealed. The force caused the slender long sword to be pressed into an extremely thrilling arc. The dangerous appearance of being about to break made the faces of the Cloud Mist Sect disciples around them show a little surprise. The sword body, which had been infused with fighting spirit, was strong enough to withstand an extremely huge gravity. And this was still the first time it came into contact, and the long sword was bent. This shows how terrifying the energy contained in the large black ruler was.
However, although the long sword was bent into such a thrilling arc, it never broke. Just when the tip of the sword was about to touch Nalan Yanran's jade arm, the latter lightly stomped the ground with the soles of his feet. The green light on the long sword skyrocketed. With the sudden surge of power, the heavy ruler bounced off with a bang. With the help of the elasticity of the two, Nalan Yanran flew up into the air, with a solemn face. The long sword in his hand suddenly trembled rapidly, and then moved slowly, and every time the long sword moved a minute, it directly formed a substantial Sword Shadow!
In just an instant, tens of thousands of long sword shadows appeared in the sky above the entire Cloud Mist Sect square, with the tip of the sword reaching Xiao Yan below!
"Wind Spirit Splitting Sword!?"
"Hiss, this is Wind Spirit Splitting Sword used by a strong person of Dou Huang level."
"Is this finally going to start taking real action?!"
"..."
