Slow and immortal

Chapter 197

Chapter 196

In the eyes of a cultivator, the light of January is just a blink of an eye. On the day of departure, Xiao Yao drove the "foot barrel" to the pre-arranged departure point, in front of the gate of Shuangluan Mountain, and found that Qin Qian had already been waiting quietly at the gate, far away. Seeing her coming, he lightly smiled.Such a handsome man stood in front of the beautiful trees in the mountains, with a tall and straight figure, and now he showed a refined smile, which immediately caused the two female disciples of the Qin family who happened to pass by to blush with respect and awe.

Xiao Yao also knew that this man was very popular in the hearts of female cultivators from the Qin family and even Taiyi, and he was an excellent candidate for a couple of monks. She was not surprised by his charm, so she stepped forward and saluted him respectfully: "Young man I have seen the elders."

"With my current status, you don't have to be so formal. My elder brother still has something to do, and he won't be here until later. I have to wait a little longer for you." At this moment, there was a trace of helplessness in Qin Qian's eyes. Knowing that she likes to be courteous and polite, no matter how many times she corrects her, she still goes her own way.

"It's okay. Senior Qin Ran is the head of the family. Naturally, he is entangled in affairs. The younger generation should wait a little longer." Hearing that there is still a wait, Xiao Yao respectfully showed no impatience on her face. She looked up and found that there was only The two of them asked again: "This time only the junior and the two seniors will go to the banquet?"

Qin Qian nodded: "Exactly, every hundred years, the major powers in Taiyi have to warm up. Each power will take turns to hold a banquet, and each family will send two to three people to go. No one can save face. "

When he explained it like this, Xiao Yao naturally understood: It sounds like everyone is warmly connecting with each other, but in fact it is just a grand banquet where each family competes secretly to show off their strength.From this point of view, the banquet guests must be all big figures with extraordinary strength and status in various schools and factions. How could Jindan monks like myself who have not even arrived at the Nascent Soul be invited?
Seeing her frowning slightly, Qin Qian guessed what she was thinking, and said with a smile: "Little friend, I find it strange, why is he invited to such a banquet?"

Xiao Yao was slightly startled, and then quietly waited for his next words with a look of all ears.

"Hey, by the way, after the little friend forged the fifth-grade spiritual weapon, did you receive an invitation letter?"

"Yes, there are quite a few."

"Has the little friend never replied to any of them?"

"..."

Now Xiao Yao is speechless. It has been 500 years, and this matter has long been forgotten by her. The families of these feelings gathered together and posted a big post. Well, the nine families invite each other, this is really helpless reject.

After finding out what was going on, she suddenly became enlightened and let go of her worries.Then the two chatted for a while, until half an hour later, Qin Ran appeared and greeted them, and then the three of them got on the beast cart that had been prepared and set off for the North Country.

The Qi family in the Northern Kingdom is located in the northernmost part of Taiyi, while the Qin family is in the southwest area, and Taiyi has a vast territory. Even if you take the beast cart specially used by Yuanying Da Neng, it will take half a month to reach the Northern Kingdom.Fortunately, the three of them chatted along the way, and they hit it off quite well, but they didn't realize that the journey was far away. In addition, there was a Nascent Soul sitting in the car, and some monks saw it from a distance, so they all detoured in fear, so the journey was flat, about ten days. The three of Chen Guang entered the northern border.

As soon as he entered the border, Qin Ran said to Xiao Yao: "Now we have entered the Northern Kingdom, a few days ago I heard from my little friend that we are going to the ice field to catch the 'Sharp-tailed Peregrine Falcon', do you want my help? "

Hearing that Da Neng wants to help in person, Xiao Yao was flattered and waved her hands quickly, "Thank you for your kindness, senior. This search for materials is also a kind of experience for this junior. You should do it yourself, so you don't have to bother senior."

"Well, what you said is reasonable, so I won't bother you," she would reply like this, and it was expected that Qin Ran didn't say much, just asked: "I don't know if you plan to go to the ice field before the banquet or After the banquet?"

"This..." Xiao Yao thought for a while and said, "I still have to ask seniors, when will the banquet start?"

"The trip went smoothly this time, and it was two or three days earlier than expected. In addition, the banquet is more grand, and the Qi family needs time to prepare. It is roughly estimated that it will be ten days later."

"There are still ten days of free time, and there is plenty of time. The younger generation thinks that it is best to finish things before the banquet, so as not to worry about it, and it is difficult to relax and drink to the fullest during the banquet. I don't know if it will be rude to enter Qi's house first to meet the seniors."

"Hehe, I guess this is what my friend will decide," Qin Ran laughed, and took out a warrant from his storage bag and handed it to her, "As for the banquet, you don't need to worry too much, even if you go early, you may not be able to Seeing those old guys, I'd better go and do your work first, and it won't be too late to go to Qi's house after the matter is settled, at that time, as long as you show this order and invitation card when you enter the mountain gate, someone will lead you in."

Xiao Yao accepted the hanging order and thanked: "Thank you for your help, senior. The junior will definitely arrive at Qi's house before the banquet begins."

Qin Ran knew what she was thinking, so he waved his hand and said, "Well, you go first."

After saying goodbye to the two of them, Xiao Yao boarded the bucket and headed to the ice field alone.According to the map given by Xuanyuan Yi, the ice field is located in the northwestern part of the Northern Kingdom. It is covered by snow and ice all the year round, and it will never melt. There are many monsters and beasts in it, and there are few people.The "sharp-tailed peregrine falcon" is a common monster bird that haunts the deeper part of the ice sheet.It is shaped like an eagle, with horns on its head and claws on its wings. When the wings are spread out, it is more than three feet wide. Its white feathers without impurities will glow in five colors under the sunlight. It is an excellent treasure for making decorations. The material is sought after by many girls, and is often raised to a high price.

Because the grade and speed of the "foot bucket" have been greatly improved, it can be reached in less than half an hour, so Xiao Yao is not in a hurry, but enjoys the scenery along the way slowly, not in a hurry.

The northern country is located in the extreme north of Thailand, and the climate is relatively cold. Here, spring, summer and autumn only occupy one season in a year, and the remaining three-quarters of the days are winter. Now it is winter in the northern country, and the eyes are covered with silver. The room is covered in white, looking at the stretch of white mountains, I feel very comfortable.

Walking around like this, when approaching the ice field, Xiao Yao let go of her divine sense. After some investigation, she found that there were three not weak spiritual powers active near the depths of the ice field.

She first observed with her spiritual sense on the spot for a while, and found that the three strands of spiritual power had been going around in the ice field, showing no signs of leaving. It seemed that they were either hunting monsters or gathering spiritual herbs.I came here to catch the "sharp-tailed peregrine falcon". If I get too close, it may cause conflicts due to interest issues.

Thinking about it, she frowned, then decided to avoid the three of them and head for another place marked farther away on the map.
