Space Cultivation

Chapter 96
A group of people entered the city with Hei Nian.It sounds like a city, but it is really big.The wide street can accommodate four horse-drawn carriages driving side by side, with densely packed shops lined up on both sides, and walking through the alleys, there are patches of residential areas.

Further forward is a big square, about the size of five football fields.On the right side of the square is a three-story auction house, and on the left side is the only academy in the city.

Looking to the back of the square, a magnificent building with jade walls, black tiles, painted buildings and red curtains is the City Lord's Mansion.Everyone looked east and west along the way, their eyes full of amazement, and they walked for half an hour before arriving at the City Lord's Mansion.

That Hei Nian was very patient and didn't get annoyed, allowing a group of people to touch and rub along the way to visit at will.When they came to the gate of the City Lord's Mansion, the two rows of guards beside the gate bowed down to salute

"Lord City Lord."

Only then did everyone come back to their senses, and looked in astonishment at the majestic mansion in front of them and Hei Nian who was called an adult beside him.

Hei Nian seemed to be in a good mood, smiling and leading the crowd to find a quaint and elegant courtyard and settle down.Since then, everyone has officially started a year-long life here.

After settling down that day, Hei Nian went back to his yard to deal with the government affairs that had been delayed for the past few months, and he didn't show up for a long time.But this made a group of people unfettered and enjoyed it freely, and fell in love with this place instead.

During this period, after Chen Ruirui took the Foundation Establishment Pill, he retreated for three consecutive days, and when he came out, he had broken through to the Foundation Establishment Stage.Facing the congratulations from everyone, his brows were filled with joy, and he was even more grateful to Shi Xuan.

These days, Shi Ren and his wife have also been preparing to break through the innateness under the accumulation of Shi Xuan's large number of pills.The couple are working very hard, looking forward to their breakthrough as soon as possible, so as not to hold back their daughter.

Shi Xuan also took advantage of this leisurely time to prepare a lot of pills for everyone.On this day, when Shi Xuan was still in the process of alchemy, a beautiful young woman came to the door suddenly with a group of servants.

"You, where do you put this, and that over here..."

In the inexplicable eyes of everyone, he commanded for a while, then turned his head, and stepped forward with a smile:

"You are, Sister Xuan. You are such a beauty. It is rare to see you in this world. I have heard about you from the city lord a long time ago. These days, I have been busy with government affairs with my lord, and I can't take time off. Now I remembered to give you some daily gifts." Supplies, I’m sorry, I’ve wronged you these few days. By the way, my name is Xuan Ye, let me know if there is anything missing here, and I promise to take care of it for you.”

Everyone smiled politely, feeling embarrassed at the arrival of the pretty and enthusiastic woman in front of them.

Xuan Ye didn't care, as if he didn't see the uncomfortable expressions of everyone, he continued to laugh:

"Sister Xuan, let's have a good chat when we have time. The city lord is still waiting for me in the study, so I won't bother you today."

After hearing this, Shi Xuan smiled and nodded his thanks.Xuan Ye also smiled at everyone, and left gracefully holding up her skirt.

Everyone in the yard looked at each other and shook their heads helplessly. Hearing the woman's address to Hei Nian, she thought she was not the hostess, but she insisted on posing as a hostess to be the master of the house. That anxious look was extremely funny.

Xuan Ye, who was far away from here at this time, stopped and let out a long sigh, turned his head and glanced at Shi Xuan's direction complicatedly, then looked at the dark door in front of him with some disappointment, and strode in.

Inside the gate, Hei Nian was discussing important matters with several elders at this time, and it was coming to an end.Seeing Xuan Ye coming in, he glanced at it as usual, and said a few more words before finishing.Xuan Ye obediently stood aside, his eyes involuntarily drifted towards Heinian when no one noticed.

"Master City Lord, I just had nothing to do to deliver some daily necessities to Sister Xuan. You often say that I am beautiful, but I only know what is going on after seeing Sister Xuan. As a woman, I can't help but marvel when I see it. Again and again."

Xuan Ye stared closely at Heinian's expression while admiring.

When Hei Nian heard Xuan Ye's praise, he immediately flashed a look of complacency, as if he was the one who praised him.

"Of course, I fell in love with Hei Nian...but you are also beautiful."

Hei Nian wanted to praise his good eyesight, but when he suddenly thought of Xuan Ye by his side, he stopped talking, smiled and patted her on the shoulder to express his comfort.When Xuan Ye saw his happy expression, a trace of disappointment flashed in his eyes, and finally disappeared into his eyes.

Xuan Ye's father, Xuan Tian sighed helplessly when he saw this, and left with his distraught daughter.The other three elders, Tianquan, Diping, and Huang Zhong, also left one after another.

"Young master, let me take care of Xiaoying City." After the crowd dispersed, Uncle Zeng stood up from the shadows and whispered with a gesture of wiping his neck.

Heinian stroked his forehead and sighed.

"Don't worry, the soldiers will come to cover the water and soil, and Black Rock City can withstand it for a while. It's just that the disciples in the city are weak now, and there will be no worries after solving this."

"That girl, is she really that capable? If she succeeds, she will also solve a major problem in the city, and the rest of the matter will be easy to handle. It's just a matter of time."

Uncle Zeng crossed his hands in front of his belly, thinking.

"I can go see her and him today, and I can start preparing for the college."

Hearing this, Heinian's eyes suddenly lit up, and he regained his energy. He packed up his things excitedly, and prepared to go to find Shi Xuan.

At this time, Shi Xuan had nothing to do, and was grilling meat under the unanimous request of everyone.Before Hei Nian approached, he smelled the smell of meat, his nose writhed, and his face was intoxicated.The pace accelerated a bit.

When he was sharing flesh and blood with everyone, he saw Hei Nian coming in, looking at himself and the others eagerly.Everyone looked at each other in blank dismay, wondering if it was a bad day today, one after another came, without stopping at all.

Dazed for a moment, attracted by the fragrant barbecue in front of him, ignoring Heinian's eyes, he continued to divide the meat, the barbecue.

Seeing that everyone was eating deliciously, but no one paid attention to him, Hei Nian was even more greedy, and swallowed a big mouthful of saliva with a "gulong".But seeing everyone's shocked gazes cast on him in unison, he couldn't help but blush in embarrassment.

Shi Xuan twitched the corners of his mouth, and silently handed out a piece of barbecue.

"Do you eat?"

After all, feeling the astonished gazes of the crowd, he only realized that he was secretly calling himself an idiot. Isn't this exposing his face in public and sweeping away his majesty?It's over, this time I completely offended him.Immediately regretted, and quietly retracted his hand, just as if this had never happened.

Unexpectedly, Heinian suddenly stretched out his big hand to hold Shi Xuan, stared eagerly at the barbecue in his hand, and said shamelessly:
"To eat."

Everyone looked up again, and silently lowered their heads to eat their own barbecue, to soothe their wounded hearts, and stopped looking at these two strange things.
