Chao Yan took Xie Jiuniang back to the family.

There are many versions about what the legendary No. 1 family in the Southern Region is like in the world of immortal cultivation, but without exception, they all talk about one thing, that is, the wealth of the Nalan family.

The Nalan family is surrounded by towering city walls.

Entering through a city gate, there is a vast plain.

There were groups of spiritual animals grazing on the grass, the kind that were raised for food, such as spiritual pigs, cattle and sheep. After walking a little further, you could see the endless spiritual fields.

The cultivated miraculous rice is a golden field.

When the wind blows, the rice waves rise and fall like a golden ocean.

Every few meters, you will see a village with hundreds of houses built. A group of children are playing in the open space at the entrance of the village, and happy laughter can be heard from time to time.

The years are stable, peaceful and beautiful.

After flying for a while, we saw another towering city wall.

This is the second gate of the Nalan family. In front of the heavy gate, there is only an old man guarding the gate. Don't underestimate this old man, he is a Yuanying.

"It's the Second Young Master who's back!"

The old man was confused when he first saw Zhao Yan, but suddenly he stood up to greet him, "Second Young Master, is it really you? It's been more than 160 years since you last came back to the family."

Chao Yan felt a little guilty when he heard this, "Ji Bo."

"It's really the Second Young Master!" Ji Bo wiped his tears.

Xie Jiuniang pretended not to listen or see anything inappropriate, but she was actually secretly glancing at her own master.

I haven’t been back to my family for one hundred and sixty years, which is quite a long time.

Ji Bo finally saw Xie Jiuniang, "Second Master, this is..."

"It's my apprentice Yuan Xi."

Chao Yan looked at Xie Jiuniang again and introduced her, "Disciple, this is Grandpa Ji, the elder who watched your master grow up."

"Junior Yuan Xi pays his respects to Grandpa Ji." Xie Jiuniang said humbly and politely.

After parting with Ji Bo, Chao Yan and I passed through several city gates. According to Chao Yan, flying randomly is prohibited in the Nalan family's territory, and there are prescribed flight routes to avoid accidentally entering forbidden areas or agencies.

Along the way, the mountains and rivers are beautiful and the scenery is superb.

A family with all kinds of facilities is like a large city.

Finally we arrived in front of a large emerald lake.

What shocked Xie Jiuniang the most was seeing a floating island above the center of the lake.

The floating island is like a huge monster, floating in the air motionlessly.

Looking from the ground, you can still see the complicated array patterns under the island, with white light flashing from time to time. Xie Jiuniang, who has practiced array formations, knows that there are many small spirit gathering arrays, which form a large spirit gathering array. The spiritual energy condensed daily constantly maintains the large array on the island.

“A big deal!”

Xie Jiuniang was amazed.

Chao Yan smiled and said, "Come on, hurry up and follow me."

After saying that, he flew into the air and headed towards the floating island in the center of the lake.

The broken sword flew out, Xie Jiuniang flew up and followed behind Chao Yan.

When approaching the floating island, there was a barrier outside. Chao Yan formed a seal and hit the barrier. The barrier was like rippling water and an entrance opened up.

Chao Yan flew into the island first.

Xie Jiuniang followed in.

The scenery in front of her eyes suddenly changed. The floating island was larger than Xie Jiuniang had imagined. In the center of the island there was a tower that seemed to reach the clouds, which was particularly eye-catching.

Chao Yan introduced: "The ninety-nine-story Tower of Babel is an immortal weapon."

Xie Jiuniang's heart was slightly shaken.

Forgive her for her shallow knowledge in her past and present lives combined.

Around the Tower of Babel, there is a square paved with bluestone slabs, and then there are rows of buildings. The orientation of the buildings here is very particular.

There are the techniques of the Five Elements and Eight Trigrams.

In addition, it looks like a town, but it is not a town because it lacks the atmosphere of fireworks.

This place actually seems like a retreat route left by the Nalan family.

The sword spirit exclaimed, "Master, this island is a flying machine."

"Your master has already predicted it, so there's no need for you to tell him." Xie Jiuniang had thought of it when she saw the floating island on the ground. If the Nalan family encountered a major crisis, they could take their clansmen away at any time and live in seclusion, making it difficult for outsiders to find them.

"Yan'er, come to the top of the tower and bring your apprentice with you." A vicissitudes of life voice came from above the Tower of Babel.

Chao Yan and Xie Jiuniang looked at each other.

Then he flew to the top of the tower. Chao Yan found it more and more strenuous to fly. He secretly used his skills to resist, and in an instant all the pressure disappeared.

What else is there to understand? This is a test from our ancestors.

Just as he turned around to watch the show, he found that his little disciple behind him was sitting cross-legged on the broken sword, his little face relaxed, more at ease than him, who had attained the state of incarnation.

"Didn't your disciple feel the pressure?"

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

"Not bad."

Xie Jiuniang's soul reached the Nascent Soul stage.

The pressure from the Jindan level could not affect her, not to mention the help of the Broken Sword. Therefore, the invisible pressure did exist, but only a trace, really just a trace, almost like a tickle.

The corner of Chao Yan's mouth twitched.

Very good, I was tricked by my apprentice again!

This was quite infuriating. He hoped that his ancestors wouldn't be mad at him, so he didn't hesitate and went up in an instant.

Xie Jiuniang followed closely behind. When they reached the 90th floor, the pressure increased greatly. However, when a silver light flashed on her body, the pressure disappeared.

Fall into the eyes of those who are interested.

People just fly up without any pressure.

The senior members of the Nalan family who were watching from the dark wondered, "Didn't the ancestor say that he wanted to test the child? Why is there no movement? We've already gone up to the ninety-third floor!"

"Yes, in the blink of an eye, we have reached the third floor."

"The ancestor took action. There is something strange about the child."

"She doesn't need to bother to control the sword under her butt. Just now, a silver light flashed from her body, like the power of the law..."

"Brother, stop joking. How old is that child?" This man clearly did not believe that it was the power of the law, but instead suspected that it was some kind of magic weapon.

Because of this, the two elders started arguing.

Someone on the side laughed and said, "Master, Third Master, this discussion between the two of you is boring. Am I the only one who is concerned about the fact that the child's bone age is not very old, but his cultivation has reached the seventh level of the Golden Core. His aura is smooth and rich, and there is no sense of emptiness. Looking at the entire world of immortal cultivation, there has never been such a person. This child can be called a peerless immortal pride."

"The most important thing is that he is Xiao Chaoyan's apprentice, hehe. Doesn't that mean he is ours?"

"You're not wrong to say that."

"I also agree with this statement."

“Second!”

"I second that!"

The elders, who usually quarreled like cross-eyed chickens, finally reached a consensus this time.

The Nalan family is a large family, and its management is similar to that of a sect.

The clan rules are strict and fair.

The disciples of the family have been taught very well by their elders since childhood. At least they have a strong sense of family honor, and even the habit of protecting their own shortcomings is inherited from generation to generation.

Xie Jiuniang didn't know yet that she had been assigned to the Nalan family.

The sword spirit was so focused on resisting the pressure at this moment that he had no intention of paying attention to his surroundings, let alone eavesdropping on gossip.

I know it, Xie Jiuniang is also happy about it.

If you don't want a big backer who offers himself to you, you'd be a fool.
