Evil Emperor Zun

Chapter 557

The wind came and went, blowing the three corpses left on the ground, as if it was still showing the tragic battle just a moment ago.

Ye Shuo's gaze didn't stay around for long, and he moved his legs with difficulty, "Now the leader is dead, and the family is scattered. We must take it back to the various businesses as soon as possible, and kill chickens and monkeys." After taking a step, his body shape became He fell forward out of strength, and when he felt that the world was spinning, he was supported by Xi Lingjie: "Nephew Ye Xian, that's enough, leave these things to us to do!"

After many years of conquest in the shopping malls, Xilingjie naturally knows very well that he should treat his dependents with kindness and strength, neither make them feel that following the clan has no way out, nor make them feel that the clan is weak and can be bullied.The most important of these is how to grasp that "degree".

Ye Shuo nodded his head with difficulty: "I don't know anything about business. As for the re-operation of the firm, I'm afraid you will have to deal with it yourself, sir."

Xi Lingjie hurriedly responded: "Naturally. Nephew Ye Xian... No, benefactor, you are seriously injured, and you need to ask a doctor to come and see as soon as possible—"

Ye Shuo took a few deep breaths, and could clearly hear the violent roar of his chest like a blowing box, and he could see that it was also Venus bursting out, false and real.It seems that the trauma to the body caused by this war is far more serious than I imagined...

Looking inside, the soul saw that the body had been completely destroyed.This kind of injury can be big or small, if it is not treated in time, it is very likely to leave sequelae for future cultivation.

In this way, Ye Shuo stopped being brave, nodded and said, "Master Xiling, please prepare a quiet room for me. I can handle the rest by myself. Also, I hope that during my closed-door retreat, all of you will be able to do this." Don't bother me."

Xi Lingjie supported him all the way, still telling him: "Of course this is no problem. If you need any healing herbs, just ask us—"

……

When Ye Shuo left the customs again, his injuries had already healed.

During this time, apart from healing his wounds, Ye Shuo was not idle.After his injuries were basically healed, he began to use the insights gained in this battle to successfully enter the state of cultivation.

Stepping into the cultivation level, Ye Shuo's foundation was already more stable than others. This battle not only consolidated his cultivation base, but also made his spiritual power more solid, and even faintly approached the cultivation level. A period of peak gas.

If it had been according to Ye Shuo's original intention, he would really like to break through to the second level of Qi cultivation in one fell swoop before leaving the customs, but in the last few days, he could clearly feel that his spiritual power was like a bucket filled with water, clearly only The last spoonful can fill up the bucket, but it is this spoonful, no matter how poured it is, it will not fill the last gap.

After repeated attempts to no avail, Ye Shuo finally let out a long sigh and quit the cultivation state.

Breaking through the realm cannot be forced, even with the help of pills, it may be possible to forcibly promote, but this will also make the foundation vain, which is a taboo for spiritual practitioners.Speaking of which, it's only been a long time since I've been promoted to the cultivation level, and it's really too hasty to think about hitting the second stage so soon.

Strolling among the many courtyards of Xiling's house, as soon as he stepped into the main living room, before he had time to look around, Xilingjie greeted him with a smile on his face: "Grandpa, you are finally out!"

"How long have I been in seclusion this time?" Seeing Xilingjie's exaggeratedly happy expression, Ye Shuo asked in confusion.

"It's been more than a month!" Xi Lingjie still couldn't hide his excitement when he spoke, "We were all worried and wanted to go in several times to have a look, but because my benefactor once said that he didn't like to be disturbed, I still strictly ordered the servants not to be disturbed." Trespassing." As he spoke, he looked Ye Shuozhou up and down again: "How about it, have all of your benefactor's injuries healed?"

More than a month... Ye Shuo was suddenly taken aback at this moment.During the retreat, he didn't feel the flow of time in the outside world at all. In his estimation, except for the two times when he absorbed the spiritual source, his daily practice should last at most ten days.But I don't want to, it's been a month...

After all, the retreat at the cultivation level is not as good as it was before.In the future, with the increase in strength, the time for self-retreat will inevitably become longer and longer.In the future, after entering Nirvana, there may also be a retreat. The world has passed thousands of years, so the friends around me...

Thinking of this episode, Ye Shuo felt a little sad for no reason.The lifespan of an ordinary person is no more than a hundred years. Before the retreat, everyone is still reunited. When they leave the retreat, the sea is full of vicissitudes, the old people are gone, and the world is completely changed.Longevity alone is not a kind of misery.

After a while, Ye Shuo suddenly laughed at himself again.Now that I am a newcomer at the level of Qi cultivation, I have just gained a firm foothold in the world of spiritual cultivation, and I am starting to worry about the retreat after Nirvana. If others know this, I am afraid they will laugh out loud.

It would take thousands of years to really advance to that legendary realm.Until then, there is still time to be with friends.Cherish what you have now, this is the most important thing.

In just a short moment, Ye Shuo's expression changed drastically.In the end, under Xi Lingjie's confused eyes, he raised his head and smiled at him: "It's all right now. Have you settled everything about the branch?"

Xilingjie smiled boldly and said: "You have already solved the biggest trouble, those kittens and puppies, if we still can't get it right, then what will this old man have to be the patriarch of the Xiling clan?"

After the two laughed at each other, Xilingjie said again: "Of course, Gongsun's house is safe and sound. It's all thanks to your benefactor, you defeated the blood skeleton!"

As soon as the blood skull was mentioned, Ye Shuo's eyes flickered again: "It's a pity that I failed to kill him this time. If I leave, will he come to seek revenge on you again?"

Xi Lingjie smiled lightly and waved his hand: "It doesn't matter. He is a killer, and he always acts according to the standards of a killer. Xi Linglong is dead, and the remaining Xiling Chen, a little kid, can't control him. There is no client, He will not seek revenge on his own for personal grievances. But you, benefactor...I remember the blood skeleton said before, you killed their people in the blood cloud hall?"

Ye Shuo frowned slightly: "That's just a misunderstanding."

"Whether it's a misunderstanding or not, these big forces are extremely defensive. Especially the factions of Xueyuntang or Jiuyoudian, there are endless weird tricks, you must be careful!" Xilingjie warned seriously.

Ye Shuo nodded.In any case, it was always Xilingjie's kindness for his sake.

At the same time, he naturally won't be blindly complacent just because he defeated the blood skeleton.After all, the other party was in the Blood Cloud Hall, and he was only No. 1 of the younger generation. If that force really wanted to deal with him, there would definitely be many elder masters who would also join in the pursuit.Among them, there may be many strong men in the sky-reaching realm. Without using the ten directions to kill puppets, it is not something he can deal with now.

As for the fluke mentality that the big powers rely on their status and won't send real masters to embarrass themselves, a junior, Ye Shuo will never blindly embrace it.They are rounding up the murderer, so they won't pay attention to the morals of the rivers and lakes with him.

Afterwards, Xi Lingjie gave him a few more instructions, and Ye Shuo responded one by one. Just as he was about to say goodbye and leave, there was a burst of laughter in his ear.

"Ah Lu is right, among those of us who came out of Zhiyuan Academy, you are indeed the most promising one. The cultivation level singled out the transformation level, strong!" Jia Luo gave him a thumbs up in front of him.

"The gossip guys in the academy will never let go of such big news. When the time comes, you will definitely become their idol!" Gongsun Zhiqi was in high spirits.

Xu Yuan has already fallen into narcissism: "Then we are friends who are idols, and they are also idols!"

"Can you wait a bit..." Ye Shuo really couldn't laugh or cry because of these forward-thinking friends, "You just said... Ah Lu?"

Jia Luo nodded: "Yeah, when you first came to the academy, Ah Lu was very optimistic about you. We didn't understand it at that time. Looking back now, Ah Lu's vision is really vicious!"

The four chatted and laughed for a while, and Ye Shuo suddenly noticed that there was a missing person here: "By the way, where is Xiling Jiangkun?" That guy usually likes to be lively, but this time he has a rare good opportunity to make fun of himself. Why didn't he join in? This booing team that is afraid of chaos in the world?

When the three of them heard him ask about Xiling Jiangkun, they shrugged their shoulders tacitly and pouted in another direction at the same time.

Ye Shuo looked around, and saw a well-dressed figure standing behind the counter.He was dressed in a water blue fur cloak, which was glamorous, luxurious, and full of aristocratic style.At this time, one hand was behind his back, and the other hand was pulling the abacus in front of him in a dignified way. He only lacked a long beard.

Ye Shuo had been in the hall for a long time, and he only regarded this person as a visiting branch family head, and he didn't even glance at him.At this time, after looking carefully, it was only then that this dignified "Master" turned out to be the Xiling Jiangkun who was jumping up and down in Zhiyuan Academy and couldn't even calm down for a moment!

Accompanying him is Xiling Qi, who corrects him in a low voice from time to time: "Master, the abacus is not allocated that way...the account is not recorded that way..." Instructing in the mouth, he still has to help Xiling Jiangkun to revise it in his hand. Misremembered ledger.

Ye Shuo smiled and stayed beside the two for a long time before Xiling Jiangkun noticed him, and a familiar bright smile soon appeared on his face.

"Ah, Ye Shuo, I haven't had time to tell you that this month, we have conquered the branch family and various business houses, and rebuilt the family. From now on, I will officially become the heir of the Xiling family! From now on, you will all call me, 'Boss Xiling'." Stretchedly opened his sleeves and showed it to everyone, "How about it, do you think I look like a boss in this outfit?"

After the Xiling family was rebuilt, Xilingjie also began to delegate a lot of power to the Xilingtan lineage, and arranged for Xiling Qi to assist Xiling Jiangkun in business.In the final analysis, this catastrophe was all caused by the old-fashioned concept of "separation of clan and family".If it weren't for the clan's self-respecting nobility, and the fact that the sub-family has suffered many unequal oppressions over the years, it wouldn't have forced Xiling to collude with foreign enemies and rebel against the clan.

After the catastrophe, Xilingjie finally came to his senses and abolished many old rules.In the future, the heirs of the main family and the branch family will be treated equally, whether it is the usual cultivation resources or the future involvement in the family business.To put it simply, as long as you have the ability, you can get the best treatment. The tragedy of unrecognized talent like that in Xilingbei will never happen again in the future.

On the other side, Jia Luo and others also followed, and said with a smile: "We were all talking just now, if you can completely change your past after going through this ordeal, and hone your temperament, it will be a blessing in disguise. "

Xiling Jiangkun curled his lips: "What's more, I was always restless before. I dreamed that the world was covered by a sea of ​​blood, and I took two swords to kill demons and demons, which made me sleepless for several months. Sleep well. I thought some catastrophe was about to happen, so that's what happened!"

Ye Shuo was shocked when he heard this.Why is the scene described by Xiling Jiangkun so similar to the scene when the Gorefiend appeared in the world?But the appearance of the blood demon is only a recent event. According to Xiling Jiangkun, he had dreamed of it a few months ago.It can't be explained by coincidence. Could it be that... Xiling Jiangkun, who looks carefree, actually has the talent of a gossip master?

After hesitating for a moment, Ye Shuo took out the jade slip from his bosom, and transferred the first hexagram technique that Gong Tianying had left him to Xiling Jiangkun, and said earnestly: "There are some secret techniques here, you can learn them. If you can fully comprehend it after seven days, I will also hand over the rest of it to you. If not... then it can only be said that you have no luck with this hexagram technique."

Xiling Jiangkun didn't know what to do, but thought that Ye Shuo's secret technique must be powerful, so he looked through it cheerfully.Xu Yuan, Gongsun Zhiqi and others also surrounded him, expressing their opinions in a hurry.

Whether he can inherit the inheritance of the Bagua master depends on the good fortune of Xiling Jiangkun.Ye Shuo stopped talking to him, took out Minghan Glazed Light and Canglan Yanlang, came to the side of Xilingjie, and held them with both hands.

"Master Xiling, this is your family heirloom sword, and now it belongs to its original owner!"

Xilingjie's eyes turned slightly on the two swords, and then he raised his head firmly: "Grand En helped my Xiling family through the disaster this time, and I, Xilingjie, can't repay it. These two swords, even if you give them away Thank you benefactor!"

Ye Shuo refused again and again, but Xi Lingjie insisted on insisting. In the end, Ye Shuo could only put it away again.Thinking of the confusion that had been pressing in his heart for the past few months, he took a step forward and said in a low voice: "Master Xiling, about these two swords, I have something I want to talk to you alone."

Xi Lingjie seemed to have foreseen the content of the conversation, so without further ado, he invited Ye Shuo to a nearby guest room for a secret talk.

"Master Xiling, these two swords were forged by your family ancestors. Is there a living soul hidden in them? And why is there a living soul?" After the door was closed, Ye Shuo's first words were straight to the point. .

Xi Lingjie sighed deeply: "I already knew that this question would eventually be asked to me. Now, the soul brand of Shu Yun has disappeared, and I think she did what she should do. That also means that the Gorefiend is dead, and the mission of my Xiling family has been completed, and if I tell this secret at this time, Lady Shu Yun will not blame her."

The female hero Shu Yun... Ye Shuo unconsciously held his breath.So, is the living soul in the sword really another dark situation that Mi Shuyun set up back then?
