Chapter 97 Xie Qiaoxuan looked at Ji Xia: "Wutong, meet your uncle!", the Black Mountain Abyss shook!

Black Mountain City, in the Ji family courtyard.

Someone came from the Xie Mansion and asked Ji Xia to come over, presumably to discuss something.

Watching Ji Xia adjusting his clothes, he felt a surge of energy throughout his body, as if every inch of his muscles and bones had been tempered to perfection. It was hard to believe that he had only been practicing for a month.

After the turmoil of the past few days, Ji Han became extremely curious about the layers of mysteries surrounding his brother.

But even if he asked again and again.

Ji Xia didn't tell him much about the details.

Because the less the relevant 'insiders' know about 'Song Chai Xin's' affairs, the better it will be for both Ji Xia at present and Ji Han who is related to him by blood.

Like Tan Tai Yao, like Chen Zhao.

It was because of accidents, or because he had no choice, in order to find a way out, that Ji Xia leaked a little bit of information.

After all, before he could completely figure out what kind of "enemy" he had offended in his previous life, or what kind of person was "coveting" him.

He was not sure whether he could guarantee his safety in this world.

Especially when he heard it from Tan Tai Yao and Chen Zhao.

When he learned that the inheritance of the 'Great Demon Lord' that he had obtained in the past had been exposed to the whole world, and that a peerless demon had been released, it turned out to be 'Song Fanjing'
Even if I don't know the ins and outs of it, I don't know what earth-shattering thing I did back then.

Ji Xia knew very well that he must not let himself, who had not even reached the second step, get involved with Song Chai Xin!
Otherwise, take the example of the "Military Temple" back then, where a piece of groundless information shocked a fourth-grade priest and a martial marquis, causing Pei Nanbei and Ye Cang to come forward.

Even if people like Xie Qiaoxuan and Tan Tai Yao were tied together.

Perhaps, it is just from the point of view of the exposure of the 'Demon Hunting Dao Qi'.

No one can protect him!
Not to mention,
Currently, with the unrest in the northwest, demons are invading Aquarius State.

In every city, everyone is in danger.

As a result, the thirty-six demon palaces and demon caves lurking in the three mountains and five peaks were completely in turmoil. From time to time, they would sneak into the cities and palaces, and use all means to plunder the popularity of those who want to advance to the 'Great Innate'.

In addition, Chen Zhao had received a message from 'Wutong Mansion Master', who was Zheng Zizhen, the chief constable whom Ji Xia had first seen when he went to Heishan as Song Chaixin.

He talked about his biological father 'Gu Hua' who was the source of Song Chai Xin's bloodline.

Decades later, he actually embarked on the path of transforming into a dragon and ranked fourth. He leaped from the branch of dragon blood that was separated that year and directly became a powerful ancestor in the ancestral court of demons!

He also opened up the 'Xuanqing Dragon Vein', which was able to summon wind and rain, and gather three thousand monsters by water. Each monster soldier was as vigorous and energetic as the warriors guarding the city, far superior to the 'Xuanqing Lake' back then!
This time, I have made a new big enemy!

In the past, he was just the leader of Wutong Mansion, Jiaolong, tinkering around in that small piece of land. A garrison commander who had advanced to the third step could gather the second-step masters from all sides and unite to encircle and suppress him.

As a result, after not seeing him for decades, I don’t know what kind of good fortune he had, but he actually broke through the fourth step a few years ago, and now he is advancing straight into the demon king who is attacking Wutong Mansion!
His purpose is so obvious!
Ji Xia knew it without much thought.

It was all to avenge the grudge of having a dragon's tail cut off at Qinjian Mountain!
The cause of the incident in the past was due to firewood from the Song Dynasty.

Now, I have been dead for a long time.

However, because of the inheritance of the "Pool of Red Blood and Red Heart", the foundation of Qinjian Pavilion was depleted, so the section of dragon tail was left in Qinjian Pavilion.

With the dragon's tail and blood, it absorbed the remaining spiritual charm. After several years of brewing, it became a treasure land that was slightly inferior to the "Pool of Red Blood and Red Heart", but could also give birth to "authentic energy".

Qinjian Pavilion is next to the "newly renovated" Jiaolong Pond.

In recent years, many warriors have been trained to break through the great innate barriers with "authentic qi".

With more accumulation, even if there is no Tan Tai Yao, it is a foregone conclusion that a truly native "third step" figure will appear in the future.

But you reap what you sow.

The Jiaolong Pond was broken by Ji Xia with the help of Yang Xiu, one of the three city masters of the Demon-Suppressing Great Wall, 'Bai Yujing', and his supreme fist intention. It was a rebellion against the Tiangang and a shame of his life.

A few years later, he called himself "Xuanqing Demon King" and led his 3,000 demons of "Xuanqing Dragon Vein" into Wutong Mansion.

Can he not revisit the old place and erase the shame he suffered in the past?
Therefore,
Just one day ago.

Tan Tai Yao and the man from Heishan City named Xu Qin, who was said to be the disciple adopted by the former Qinjian Pavilion Master Xu Nian, chatted in detail for nearly an hour.

So this morning, he said goodbye to the Jixia brothers and left.

Ji Han felt quite disappointed about this.

After all, this was the first time in his life that he met a master like Tan Tai Yao, and he also helped him solve his "hidden dangers", so he had a very good feeling.

But compared to him.

Ji Xia felt quite heavy in his heart.

Because according to what Tan Tai Yao said.

In Tongye Prefecture, he defeated all enemies in the "Ten Absolute Passes" where four steps could be broken with three steps, killed countless enemies, and finally received the initiation from the master of the Ten Absolute Passes.

As a result, he did not become the fourth-step immortal who broke through the "Ten Absolute Barriers" of this generation.

On the contrary, due to his flawed state of mind, he failed to knock on the Heavenly Gate, causing his Yuan Dan's 200-year lifespan to be cut in half. His vitality was severely damaged, and he was facing the embarrassing situation of his lifespan running out and his cultivation level being reduced to only one tenth of what it was, which was not much different from being at the end of his rope.

He had killed so many masters and offended so many people along the way in the 'Ten Absolute Passes'. If he could achieve the fourth step, using force to intimidate, and sign the 'Life and Death Contract', there would not be any consequences or risks.

But unfortunately, he failed to break through and wasted an opportunity given by the Master of the Ten Absolute Pass. He became one of the few people in history who failed to break through and became a laughing stock.

If his enemies knew that the sect he was born and raised in was just a small and famous sect in Aquarius State,
I'm afraid the consequences will be disastrous.

This is one of the reasons why Tan Tai Yao does not want to return to Qinjian Mountain.

But now, there is one more reason.

What would he do if he happened to run into the 'Xuanqing Demon Lord' Gu Hua when he returned?

Think of this.

Ji Xia was worried.

He knew Gu Hua.

According to ancient legend, people with dragon blood are cruel and vindictive.

He didn't inherit much cruelty from Gu Hua, but he did inherit his vindictiveness and coldness to the fullest.

Because of their blood connection, he knew that Gu Hua was a person who held grudges very hard. Even if the incident happened dozens or hundreds of years ago, it would only deepen the demon king's memory, but he would not forget it.

If Tan Tai Yao returns to Qin Jian Mountain and evacuates all the disciples of Qin Jian Pavilion and sends them down the mountain to avoid disaster, then the mountain gate will be gone, so there shouldn't be many accidents, right?
As he thought about it, he stepped out of the door and told Ji Han to practice well.

While walking on the bluestone alley, he headed towards Xie Mansion in the inner city.

Because of the turmoil a few days ago.

As a result, now, most of the former neighbors would avoid Ji Xia or his brother Ji Han and stay away from them.

The head of the military department, a big shot in the martial arts hall, also brought with him thirty or fifty warriors!

结果
He failed to capture Ji Xia, and yet he went to the garrison with impunity and came back alive?

Police officer.

This is the "identity" that people around him gave him in the past.

but now.
Even if you live in a humble room.

In the eyes of others, Ji Xia's identity began to become gradually confusing and unclear.

The whispers and discussions along the way fell into Ji Xia's ears, but he did not pay any attention to them. He was just thinking deeply about what was in his mind.

Let alone Tan Tai Yao.

The 'Aquarius Rebellion' caused chaos in Aquarius State, and Ji Xia's ideas were also forced to shift.

As he got back in touch with Chen Zhao and heard the news of the Aquarius Rebellion, Ji Xia decisively declined the hot potato of "guarding Black Mountain".

Originally, he wanted to rely on Chen Zhao in Heishan, and first cultivate to the great innate state, and then inherit the position of guardian. On the one hand, he would reconnect with Yunluan Mountain, and on the other hand, he would go through the government and continue to be promoted.

But this time period.

If you take up a garrison position, you must defend it to the death.

run?
Demon, Dazhao!
No side will let go of a garrison commander or a governor who abandons the city and flees!
Can.
The problem is, he is only at the first step, building the Wuguan foundation!

But he is not the Black Mountain Guardian who, with a pair of iron fists and Huangting Taoism, could defeat the big demons in the Free and Easy Realm with his fists decades ago.

Now, Ji Xia's top priority is to avoid disaster!
As the saying goes, if you keep the green hills, you won't have to worry about running out of firewood.

The sky is about to fall. He is not even as tall as he was when Song Chaixin was young. If he goes up to the top at this time, he will be courting death!
So, upon hearing the news from the Xie Mansion, Ji Xia rushed there without stopping.

At this time, Xie Wutong must be extremely busy in the Demon Hunting Bureau.

She can send someone to summon herself
There is only one possibility.

That is,
Xie Qiaoxuan is here!
When I think of my great-grandfather Xie Qiaoxuan.

Ji Xia knew that this was a good clue.

The danger to Guhua is imminent.

Even if there are many third-step masters in Wutong City, how could they be able to defeat a fourth-step master?

And in Black Mountain City, Ruan Xiuxiu's disciple Pei Luye had no intention of returning to Yunluan Mountain.

Ji Xia met her by chance, and it was impossible for him to beg her to take him to Yunluan Mountain.

Therefore, he could only rely on Xie Qiaoxuan to get in touch with Ruan Xiuxiu.

Xuanqing Demon Lord Gu Hua, the fourth step.

And where is the fourth step mountain gate in Wutong Mansion? Except Yunluan Mountain!

If you don’t enter Yunluan Mountain.

Not to mention practicing, I'm afraid my life will be in danger! Fortunately, I was Song Chaixin back then, and I was able to rely on my former "connections" to expand little by little.

If not,
We are really encountering this kind of "chaos" that we haven't seen in decades.

It's just the words of the common people.
It is not a kind of thing that one can only follow the general trend, let others do whatever they want, and let the upper demons and warriors decide the outcome to decide their own life and death.
Great sorrow?!
Xie Mansion.

There are pavilions and waterside terraces, blooming grass and flowers, and a gentle breeze. It is a perfect time of year with beautiful mountains and rivers.

But Xie Wutong was not in the same leisurely mood as he was a few days ago when he saw Ji Xia, sitting on the stone bench by himself, eating fruit with a "crunch, crunch" sound.

She was seen returning home in a hurry.

There was a thin layer of sweat on the tip of her pretty nose, and her fair face was full of fatigue. She wished she could lie down on the bed and take a deep sleep.

Because in recent days, there have been endless demonic disasters both inside and outside Montenegro.

As a result, the Demon Hunting Division was short of manpower. Even she, a bronze-badged patrol officer at the peak of the first step, was busy running around arresting demons and bandits and had no time to even go home.

Even today.

It was also because I received a piece of news.

He had just hurried back from the Demon Hunting Bureau, having quit a case involving the arrest and investigation of a second-ring demon, before rushing here.

"Grandfather, why did you come all the way from Wutong Prefecture to Black Mountain City?"

"Could it be because of the previous letter?"

"Don't worry, I've already invited that person here. If you have anything you want to ask, just ask him in person."

"only."

"I heard that the city was attacked by a demon king. Is this true or false?"

"If it is true, how can you, old man?"

Xie Wutong wiped the sweat from the tip of his nose and was shocked to see Xie Qiaoxuan, who looked gloomy and sitting on a stone bench.

And then inadvertently.

She saw the blood on Xie Qiaoxuan's wrist, and her beautiful eyes narrowed immediately, revealing worry:

"Grandfather, what are you doing?"

But Xie Qiaoxuan just waved his hand indifferently:
"When you enter the third step, you will know that no matter whether it is a 30-year-old warrior or a warrior like me who is about to die, the strength we unleash is the same."

"The Yuan Dan can lock up your Qi, blood and Qi, which will keep you in peak condition forever. As for this injury, it was caused by fighting with a third-step 'Xuanqing Demon' on the road."

"If I had known that old loach would end up like this, I would have gone there in person to grind him to dust even if I didn't care. How could I have let Xuanqing guard Duanjiang back then and let the tiger go back to the mountains until now?"

"Cough cough."

Xie Qiaoxuan's eyes were filled with anger, as if he had not expected that the Xuanqing Demon King Gu Hua, who was once just his equal and had brought shame to his Xie family, could be as glorious as he is today.

As a result, after leaving Wutong Prefecture, without the protection of the 'official luck' of the prefecture and the city, they encountered a vanguard army of the 'Xuanqing Dragon Vein'. After fighting a big demon of the third step among them, their journey was delayed.

It took him several days to finally reach Black Mountain, where he was injured, making his body, which was already nearing the end of its life, even more shaky.

But it doesn't matter.

Xie Qiaoxuan put his hands on Xie Wutong's, looked at the worry in her eyes, shook his head, and asked in a deep voice:

"What about that person?"

Unconsciously, anxiety was mixed into Xie Qiaoxuan's tone.

Xie Wutong was slightly stunned:

"Before coming here, I sent someone to summon him. Old Ancestor, why are you so anxious? Who is he..."

There are the previous mysterious Gray Yuandan and the Black Mountain guarding these two things.

Xie Wutong no longer dared to take Ji Xia lightly.

She had suspected before that her ancestor might really have a relationship with Ji Xia, but she didn't expect that.
The next moment, what Xie Qiaoxuan said completely overturned Xie Wutong's imagination.

"Don't ask who he is."

"Wutong, the situation in Wutong City must be unstable now. I am afraid that I cannot be dragged back with my body."

"The posthumous legacy of a 'Yuan Dan' has always been the most important 'foundation' of inheritance for a major power, and it can pass on the essence of one's own Yuan Dan to future generations."

"Not only can it help future generations to advance their cultivation by leaps and bounds, it can also increase the quality of their future 'Nengdan', almost saving them thirty years of hard work."

"In the past, the person chosen by the clan, including me, the ancestor, was you."

"but."

I saw the apology in Xie Qiaoxuan's eyes.

Xie Wutong had a bad feeling in his heart, and was greatly shocked:

"Grandfather, what are you talking about? My great-great-granddaughter has never cared about this, but...could the person you chose be?!"

She had just finished speaking!
Da da da!
There was a burst of hurried footsteps.

Before, when Xie Wutong entered the mansion, he had given instructions to the servants.

If Ji Xia came, he could enter directly without any obstruction and come to pay a visit to the ancestor of the Xie family, Xie Qiaoxuan.

When the young man in black clothes and long boots with a stern brow came to the Xie Mansion Garden and saw Xie Qiaoxuan sitting on the stone bench.
The two looked at each other.

Xie Qiaoxuan just stared at it for a while, then smiled:
"Did you write this?"

Ji Xia looked into the pair of old eyes and was silent.

He accidentally heard some of what was said just now, and when he heard words like "the end of the world is approaching" and "traumatized", he felt a little sad.

So he felt quite uncomfortable and pursed his lips, but after thinking about it, he still said:

"I wrote it."

Xie Qiaoxuan said "Oh" and stroked his beard:

"You look like someone I know."

"Plus the relationship mentioned in your letter."

"Tsk."

"If you don't mind, would you like to be my 'godson'?"

Xie Qiaoxuan was born with a slender face and an aquiline nose. No matter how much he smiled, he gave people a cold feeling. Only Xie Wutong, who had lived by his side since childhood, felt that he was gentle.

but now,
In his eyes, the old ancestor who never really smiled.
But it really was as if his facial features had melted, as if he was looking at his "hopes" and "hopes" for the future.

He looked at Ji Xia, whose back was straight, and paused before saying:
"At my age, if I accept you as my 'godson', it would be too much against the will of Heaven, and you know it in your heart."

"But fucking grandson is just right."

"You don't need to change your name."

"I'm dying."

"How about I leave you my 'Yuan Dan' legacy as a gift?"

Xie Qiaoxuan smiled.

Ji Xia heard him say that he 'understood' a few words.

I couldn't help but feel a little sore in my eyes.

I just think about planning, thinking, plotting, etc.
Under the most direct 'blood connection'.

It seemed so ridiculous and so pale and powerless.

Maybe there are just such people in this world.

Maybe just a look at you.

Even if you change layer after layer of skin, I can still see through your essence and willingly do good for you and pave the way for you.

"Hey, old man, long time no see."

Ji Xia licked his dry lips, forced a smile and greeted him.

Xie Qiaoxuan heard his response, especially the sentence "Long time no see".

After listening, his cloudy eyes finally brightened.

So, he patted Xie Wutong on the shoulder, feeling very relieved:

"Wutong, why don't you come and meet your uncle who is of the same generation as your father!"

The girl in the demon-hunting uniform had a tired expression on her face that suddenly froze.

I just felt like my worldview was about to collapse.

Two people meet?
Just acknowledge him as your godson and call him grandfather?
really.

She had thought about the most painful thing before.
happened.

at the same time.

Outside Montenegro City.

That abyss that spans the east and west.
Suddenly, there was a sudden vibration as if a dragon was turning over!
immediately
A faint outline, with an ancient palace in its vicissitudes, slowly stretched across the 'sky abyss void'.
Reflection, all around!
This caused some people in Heishan to be responsible for observing the unusual movements of the abyss.

Everyone, raise your heads!
