Chapter 105
After Ning Xu finished speaking, Xuhua's calm expression finally showed a crack.
Xuhua: "You..."
Ning Xu continued, "This great-great-great-grandson of the Mahayana master has average talent and usually relies on taking pills to level up. Unfortunately, even though he has taken countless good pills, his cultivation is still mediocre."
"You just happened to bump into him at this moment."
"You have a single water spirit root. Although it is not as good as the top-grade furnace, it is also a good choice..."
Xuhua, "Enough!" After saying that, Xuhua turned around and left, not even bothering to maintain her character. As soon as she left, Zhi Qing followed suit. Before leaving, he gave Ning Shu a cold look.
After the two of them left, the originally empty front hall seemed even more spacious.
Gou Chen and Lie Quan looked at each other. Although they wanted to know more details, such as how Xuhua was fooled by those two people, now was obviously not a good time to ask more questions.
Liequan was the first to say goodbye.
"Brother Si, we have almost finished discussing this matter. I will be leaving first, then?"
Gou Chen followed closely and also said goodbye.
"Brother Si, I suddenly remembered that I have something on hand that needs to be dealt with as soon as possible."
The sword fairy said calmly, "You guys go and do your work."
Gou Chen and Lie Quan clasped their fists and said goodbye: "Yes, Brother Si!"
After the two left, only Ning Xu, Si Zang, and his natal spirit beast, the old yellow ox, were left in the entire front hall.
Ning Xu then noticed that the old ox's huge eyes were full of interest.
She was a little surprised.
The Sword Immortal sat upright in his seat. Seeing Ning Shu sizing up Moo, he said calmly, "Moo is very interested in what you just said."
"Anything else you want to add?"
Ning Xu, "..."
She said to the melon-eating system, "I didn't expect that the sword immortal doesn't like to eat melons, but his natal spirit beast likes to eat melons."
The melon-eating system clicked its tongue twice, "Those who don't like to eat melons are a minority." Melon is so delicious, who doesn’t like to eat it? 】
[Sword Immortals are the outliers.] 】
Ning Shu coughed lightly and asked Moo, "What do you want to know?"
The next second after Ning Shu asked this question, Moo Moo spoke in human language.
It came out in a lazy boy's voice, "How long has she been with that guy?"
Ning Xu exchanged some words with the melon-eating system and replied, "More than ten years."
The old ox said, "She is so stupid that she didn't find any clues after so long."
Ning Xu, "..."
She had been in contact with the old ox for a few days. During these days, the old ox had never spoken a word. She thought that the old ox was just like Brother Pig and had not been able to cultivate into a human form. I didn't expect that it wasn't that it couldn't be said, but that it didn't want to say it.
If it encounters something it's interested in, won't it start talking? And once it opens its mouth, it becomes as venomous as the melon-eating system.
The old yellow cow then asked, "Who is that Mahayana monk who is over 4,000 years old?"
Ning Xu reported a name.
This was just told to her by the melon-eating system.
Before, the melon-eating system had always used "old thing" to describe the monk, which resulted in her only knowing his name now.
Hearing this, the old ox uttered an "oh" and said in a disdainful tone, "Him?"
"It was all thanks to my good luck that I found a cave left by an ascender and became rich overnight."
"If it was him, it wouldn't be surprising for him to do such a thing."
From the old ox's words, one could hear its contempt for the monk.
The melon-eating system also started to grumble at this time, "After listening to what the old ox said, I went to learn about the old guy's life. 】
[Tsk.] It was really a stroke of luck. 】
[Wait, something is wrong.] 】
[This old guy is quite something.] 】
Ning Shu asked, "What do you mean?"
[This old guy behaves like a halberd cultivator, and others also think he is just a halberd cultivator. 】
Ning Xu, "Then?"
The melon-eating system was a little surprised. [Then, he is actually a divination cultivator. 】
[The cave of the ascender was not something he came across by accident, but something he calculated. 】
[His family has been practicing Gua for generations, but this secret is only known to the direct descendants. Moreover, only the direct descendants can practice Gua as the main discipline. Even the side branches only think that they are a family of Ji practitioners. 】
Good job.
This old guy is really good at hiding things.
They deceived everyone in the cultivation world.
Everyone thought he was lucky, but it turned out that he was the most hidden one.
If this is the case, then it is understandable that Xuhua was fooled.
Although Xuhua is a tough character, she is too young and has too little experience. Compared with the old man who is more than four thousand years old, she is still too immature.
After hearing the two people's heartbeats, a hint of surprise flashed in the eyes of the Sword Immortal and the Old Ox.
The Jin family is hiding so deeply?
Judging from their family's behavior, there is no sign that they are related to Gua Xiu.
As a result, all the direct descendants of their family are Gua cultivators?
If you think about it carefully, you can still see one or two clues, but these clues are really too insignificant. If the melon-eating system hadn't suddenly pointed this out, even they would have been fooled.
The melon-eating system suddenly realized, [So that's it. 】
Ning Shu asked, "What?"
[I was wondering, how come the descendants of the Jin family were so accurate in their calculations, and there was no trace of this person three thousand years later? 】
[It turned out that it was because they changed their surnames.] 】
Ning Xu became interested. "Oh? What did they change it to?"
[It was changed to many surnames, Liu, Chen, Tan Tai, and...Xu. However, the descendants of the first few surnames have not achieved anything remarkable, and each generation is worse than the previous one. Only those with the surname Xu are all geniuses. 】
"Xu?" Ning Xu asked sharply, "Does the Xu you are talking about have anything to do with Xuhua?"
The melon-eating system gave an affirmative answer, [Yes. The next head of their family married Xuhua, and all his descendants took her surname. 】
Ning Shu frowned slightly, "Did they figure out something?"
[It should be.] 】
[All the direct descendants of their family married into the family, and only the side branches retained their original surnames. 】
[Three thousand years later, the only ones who still have spiritual roots for cultivation are those who changed their surnames. Those with the original surname all became mortals and could no longer pursue the path of cultivation. 】
[The descendants of Liu, Chen, and Tan Tai, although their spiritual roots are all ordinary, at least their descendants can still practice. 】
[As long as spiritual roots exist, there is a chance that future generations will revert to their ancestral roots. Once reversion occurs, the offspring will most likely have a single spiritual root. Will lead the family to prosperity again. 】
[They should be betting on that possibility.] 】
After listening to what the melon-eating system said, Ning Xu realized that the Jin family was not simple.
They have taken every aspect into consideration, probably even things that will happen long in the future.
Then, they must have also calculated the Sword Master’s...death.
Perhaps, they also contributed to Xuhua's success behind the scenes.
Originally, she had no intention of dealing with the Jin family.
The old and young of the Jin family deceived Xuhua like a fool, and she was happy to see it.
but……
If the Jin family and Xuhua are in collusion, that would be a different matter. Part of the pain that the pure-hearted Xiu Gou endured in the Endless Sea came from Xuhua, and the Jin family was in the same camp as Xuhua.
In this case, the Jin family, Xuhua, and Xuhua’s accomplices—Zhiqing, Gouchen, and Liequan—all have no chance of escaping.
Ning Shu saw the old ox starting to eat grass again, as if it was no longer interested in the four thousand year old man of the Jin family, so he took the time to ask the melon-eating system, "Does the Jin family have any melons?"
The melon-eating system asked excitedly, [What? Host, are you going to deal with the Jin family? 】
Ning Shu gave an affirmative answer.
This is the world three thousand years ago. Everything she does may not change the outcome of many things, but even if it is just to vent her anger, it is good.
Moreover, she had a hunch.
The outcomes of some things are already determined and she is powerless to change them, but some small details can still be changed.
If that were the case, then everything she did now would make sense.
Hearing that the host was going to deal with the Jin family, the melon-eating system laughed arrogantly, [Okay, host, let's start making trouble! 】
[Even if something bad happens, the Sword Immortal will still be there to back you up! 】
[It doesn't matter if he can't come to the bottom of the matter. Once we get his sword bone, we can go back three thousand years later. 】
[Making trouble!] Make trouble! Make trouble! 】
Sword Immortal: ...
Old Ox: Hehe.
Ning Xu said calmly to the melon-eating system, "Since you want to cause trouble, then make it a big one."
The melon-eating system can't wait any longer. It can't wait to see it and its host making waves in this era!
Here, there is no one they dare not mess with!
Since Ning Xu has decided to take action, the most important thing now is to pick out the big and important melons.
At this time, the Sword Immortal said calmly, "What are you thinking about?"
Ning Xu replied, "I was thinking about Xuhua and the old and young man from the Jin family."
The swordsman continued to ask calmly, "You seem to dislike them very much?"
Ning Xu admitted it openly.
"Why?"
Ning Xu didn't even need to think about this question and could give an answer directly.
"Because I have a grudge against them."
At this time, the screams of the melon-eating system rang out crazily.
If the Sword Immortal had not specially set up a formation so that only he and Moo Moo could hear the heartbeats of Ning Xu and the Watermelon Chi System, otherwise, most of the cultivation world would probably have heard this scream.
The melon-eating system has become so excited that it is incoherent.
The one who has a grudge against Xuhua and the others is not its host, but the pure-hearted Xiu Gou!
But Ning Shu said so!
What does this indicate?
This shows that she has categorized Chunqing Xiu into the category of her own people! Although its host had expressed its attitude several times a long time ago, how could the previous times be as firm and tough as this time?
This is sugar! Pure sugar, the kind without the knife!
It hit!
On top!
Ning Xu, "...Shut up."
The scream of the melon-eating system suddenly stopped, [Okay, host. 】
"How did you know about Xuhua and Zhiqing?"
Ning Xu, "If I say that I am a fortune teller and that I calculated all their affairs, would you believe it?"
The sword master didn't ask any more questions, and it was unclear whether he believed it or not.
He casually threw a jade token to her, and then left the front hall without saying a word.
He left, but Moo Moo didn't leave.
However, Moo Moo returned to his unwillingness to speak and just kept eating the top-grade spiritual herbs with extremely high spiritual energy content.
Ning Su looked at the jade token in her hand, guessing in her heart the sword immortal's intention in giving her the jade token.
The melon-eating system doesn’t know what is written on the jade card.
Actually, the main system it installs is not very easy to use sometimes. How should I put it? Sometimes it just doesn't work very well. But it’s not a big problem. Most of the time, the main system is very reliable and you can get the big melons you deserve, so it’s never been a big concern.
The melon-eating system began to urge, [Host, quickly take a look at what is written inside. 】
After Ning Xu put his spiritual consciousness into the jade token, his expression suddenly became complicated.
What's wrong, host? 】
Ning Xu was silent for a while before saying, "The jade token contains the weaknesses of Xuhua and others in their martial arts and swordsmanship."
Melon eating system, [? ? ? 】
【ah? 】
[Sword Immortal, do you want to be so...?]
Poke people.
If the sword immortal remained so aloof and unlikable, then when the time came its host would be able to take the sword bone from him with more ease.
After all, just thinking about the process of removing the sword bone would reveal that it would be painful.
But...
After the sword immortal knew that Ning Xu and Xuhua had a grudge, he actually told Ning Xu the weaknesses of Xuhua and the others.
Did he anticipate that its host would need it someday in the future?
Seeing Ning Xu's mood getting low, the melon-eating system spoke to comfort him, "Host, the sword immortal's fall is an inevitable outcome, and we are powerless to change it. 】
[Fortunately, after losing an old dog, there will be another one to repair it! 】
[Xiu Gou is purer, better behaved and more obedient! 】
So, it’s not a big problem. 】
Moo, who was eating grass happily, couldn't help but complain, "Is it not a big problem?"
It’s not a big deal!
The owner of its contract is about to die, and he can't even keep his natural sword bones. How can it not be a big problem?
Although its owner will be reincarnated, there is still a difference between the reincarnation and the original owner.
unless……
Thinking of this, the old ox lowered its huge head and continued to eat the magical grass slowly.
After getting the jade token, Ning Xu kept thinking about the relationship between Jianxian and Xuhua's group.
Since he could give her all these relationships, it meant that his relationship with them was just that.
If that was the case, how could he be hurt so badly by them?
The melon-eating system then slowly spoke, "You can't say that. 】
[Whether the friendship is deep or shallow is purely determined by comparison.] 】
[If you, the host, had not shown up, their friendship would definitely be considered deep. 】
[But you happened to appear!] 】
[Then the Sword Immortal must have a deeper friendship with you! 】
Ning Shu: ...
"The Sword Immortal and I are just acquaintances. We have only known each other for a few days."
How could it compare to the hundreds of years of friendship between him and Xuhua and others?
The melon-eating system immediately rejected it and said, [A pure and innocent Xiu Gou can fall in love with you at first sight! Then he definitely could not escape this fate in his previous life! No matter it was the previous life or the reincarnation, I am destined to be firmly controlled by you, the host! 】
The tone of the melon-eating system is firm and confident.
Ning Xu, "…love at first sight?"
The melon-eating system asked back, [Isn’t it? 】
"I don't think so."
Ning Xu couldn't figure it out, so he stopped thinking about it for the time being.
After all, the most important thing at the moment is not to guess Chunqing Xiu Gou’s feelings for her, but to cause trouble!
The melon-eating system instantly forgot about the pure love cultivation.
Although pure love is really important, eating melons is also important!
-
Ning Xu carefully considered it for the entire afternoon.
By the evening, several big pieces of news suddenly spread throughout most of the cultivation world!
And these big melons are all related to the Jin family!
The secret that the Jin family had concealed for thousands of years was suddenly brought to the public's attention!
