The man smiled.
Xia Ji took out a similar jade pendant.
The man reached out and touched it. It was true. He nodded and said,”You and I might be from the same family.”
Xia Ji was naturally puzzled.
The man did not mind. He had already prepared a clear jade porcelain plate. Then, he did not put on an act and directly circulated his Qi. A drop of blood seeped out of his finger and fell on the southernmost part of the jade porcelain plate. The blood condensed in the clear water and did not disperse. After it fell, it stopped moving.
The man made an inviting gesture. ” You do it.
Xia Ji had already experimented with it, so he wasn’t flustered. His fingertips hung on the northernmost part of the jade porcelain plate.
Drip.
When the blood dripped to the north, it also stopped moving.
Then, the two drops of blood seemed to be pulled by a mysterious force and began to move. Then, they gathered together in the center and completely fused into a large dark red drop of blood.
The man looked satisfied and laughed out loud. ” Young Master Feng’s surname isn’t Feng, but Su. You should be Su Nanbei. ” My name is Huang Wucheng, and I’m from the Duke of Cheng’s Public House.”
Xia Ji was delighted. He had found it.
“Su?” he asked, deliberately showing a puzzled expression.
Huang Wucheng said, ” It’s a long story. Follow me back to the Huang Mansion first. The family has been recruiting disciples these few days. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. The cultivation resources in the family are many times better than those in the outside world. You just happened to come at this time.
The Su family was recruiting disciples?
Wasn’t this a coincidence?
Xia Ji was puzzled, so he asked directly, “”Why is the clan recruiting people?”
Huang Wucheng said, ” It’s said that we’re on the verge of a calamity. However, there’s a great enemy outside. The clan issued such a secret order to avoid the calamity and the enemy. ‘
“I’ve heard about the killing tribulation, but a great enemy…What kind of enemy?” Xia Jiqi was curious. The water in this world was really deep. He had never thought that there would be someone who could balance the five great clans.
Huang Wucheng said, ” I don’t know who the enemy is either. Let’s go, Nanbei. Other than you, this old man still needs to find some of the descendants of the clan that were left behind.
At this moment, he had completely confirmed the identity of the youth in front of him.
In fact, there were quite a number of people with the Su family’s blood on this land. However, only those who carried the dragon jade could be considered as ” qualified to enter the family and be recognized as a disciple. ” The rest were ignored.
“I still have unfinished battles,” Xia Ji said.
“The first on the Heaven Roll and the new Marquis of the Pavilion?” Huang Wucheng asked.
Xia Ji nodded. He needed to act like a young man who had just come out of the martial world and was eager to make a name for himself.
Huang Wucheng smiled and walked to the window. He waved and said, “Nanbei, come here.”
Xia Ji walked to his side and looked outside.
Huang Wucheng pointed at a large lake in the East Sea Metropolis. The lake was blue and looked like a huge, flawless heart of jade. It reflected the clouds, flowers, and birds. There were also some sightseeing boats on the lake. There were even two or three men and women chatting and laughing by the lake. It was a spectacular sight.
” This lake is called the Skyheart Lake. It symbolizes the center of the sky. It can be said to be extremely domineering. ‘ Then, Huang Wucheng turned to the east window.
“And here…lt’s the sea.”
Looking far away, he saw a vast expanse of deep blue in the distance. The vast and boundless sea was like a sleeping cosmic dragon, slowly rising and falling. The sun was shining on this land that was hundreds of millions or billions of miles wide, but it would eventually sink under the sea level. In the morning and evening, even a huge wave might cross the original Skyheart Lake.
Compared to the ocean, the lake was so small.
Huang Wucheng said, ” The pugilistic world is a lake after all. The aristocratic families are the sea. Why should the North and the South fight for first place in this small lake? ” Follow me.
Duke Cheng Mansion.
Xia Ji was arranged to stay in an independent room with a large courtyard.
He could set up a total of seven “transfer stations”. The first one was set up in the cultivation chamber in the back palace of the imperial palace. The second one was set up in the Su family. The Duke of Cheng Mansion was just a temporary place for him to stay.
In the middle of the night, the sound of the zither was heard. It was like a tide with the wind, but it hid a sadness that was as thin as a veil. It was like crying and complaining. It was lonely and helpless. The sound of the zither gently drowned the flowers and trees, and the entire mansion. It made people wonder what kind of beautiful woman was playing the zither under such a charming moonlight.
Xia Ji couldn’t help but feel curious.
Thus, he calmed his mind and took out the agarwood and carving knife from his bosom, continuing to carve the prayer beads…
He could not waste the extra energy he had every day. More was better. The more spiritual artifacts he had, the stronger his power in the eleventh realm would be. In an instant, eighteen Buddhist Kingdoms in the Palm of Three Thousand Worlds would suppress him. It would be a beautiful scene.
Sculpting had become his daily routine.
Every time this happened, he would become calm and his heart would be at peace. It was the kind of peace that he felt when he was playing a strategy game in his previous life, and no one knew that he had killed his soldiers in the base.
The second night…
The zither played again.
Xia Ji would read books during the day and collect Skill Orbs at once. At night, he would start carving the prayer beads. After he was done, he would go drink.
At first, he was just acting as a prodigal son, but after acting for so long, he suddenly liked this kind of life. It was unrestrained, unrestrained, unrestrained, and happy.
The third day..
Huang Wucheng brought back another young man from outside. The young man was called Xin Wangshu. Obviously, he was also a disciple of the Su family who had been left outside. He had an otherworldly temperament and vaguely
had a hint of Taoism..
