Arrived at Xiling, made a big scene

Traveling is always boring, but with a fool like Qin Ruqing, such a boring trip is turned into a tourist tour.

Qin Ruqing: "Wow, it seems that there are fewer and fewer trees as we go further. Tsk, tsk, there are too many trees in Nanling. It's like a dense forest. It's annoying."

Lu Wei said softly: "The tree species here seem to be different from those in Nanling. We have only been flying for two days."

Qirong also said: "Why does it feel a little hot? Is it my illusion?"

These three little babies who have been locked up at home and have never been far away will be curious when they move a little, even the most stable Lu Wei is no exception.

Tang Zifeng is silent. That is to say, why can you be so curious about a tree for a long time? Even if it is a different species, it is still a tree, and it can bloom flowers.

"Tang Zifeng, where is the next stop? When will the heat start?" Tang Zifeng knew who it was without turning around because of the crisp voice with a slight rise at the end.

He kept his posture unchanged and said expressionlessly: "Next stop, Broken Vein Mountain."

These days, Qin Ruqing did not feel uncomfortable at all when traveling far away. On the contrary, she was extremely happy and excited. Except when it was her turn to control the flying boat, she would either lean on her third sister or take some food from Qirong's storage bag. Her mouth was never idle.

In the occasional quiet moments, she would sit alone at the stern, frowning and stroking her chin. Tang Zifeng knew that her mind was not idle and she was thinking of bad ideas.

Perhaps because he couldn't bear to see her so happy, Tang Zifeng added, "After passing the Broken Vein Mountain, you will reach the border of Xiling. Not far away is the Huoyan Mountain, which is one of the hottest places in Xiling. You will feel what heat is when you go there."

Tang Zifeng's emphasis is on the last sentence, meaning that you will soon be unhappy. As a result, Qin Ruqing's attention was obviously not on the front. She suddenly sat up, "What, Flame Mountain?!"

Tang Zifeng couldn't help but turn his head to look at her, her face full of excitement and expectation, "... Is there any problem?"

Qing: "Ha! Flame Mountain! No problem, no problem..." If she didn't cover her mouth and chuckle, this would be more convincing. Qi

Rong, who had been on the same channel with her, couldn't keep up with the rhythm this time, "Sister, is there anything funny about Flame Mountain?"

"Hehe... There's nothing funny, I just feel that the four of us are quite compatible with this Flame Mountain. Does the four-person team have to pass the Flame Mountain dungeon after all? Haha..."

She was laughing alone, and the others:? What on

earth was it about the three words Flame Mountain that touched her weird sense of humor?

Qin Ruqing was indeed happy. That is to say, who doesn't know about the four-member group of pilgrims in the previous life? Moreover, Qin Ruqing secretly glanced at Xiao Tang. Isn't there an Elder Tang in their team? Hahaha.

The four finally flew to the vicinity of the Broken Vein Mountain.

When Qin Ruqing first heard the name Broken Vein Mountain, he thought it meant "separation". After all, this mountain range separates the West Ridge from the South and North Ridges. When he really arrived at the place, he realized that it was a pictograph.

This Broken Vein Mountain really looks like someone used a big knife to split an entire mountain range horizontally in the middle, revealing a straight and steep cross-section.

At this time, Qingqing, Lu Wei, and Qirong were standing at the foot of the Broken Vein Mountain, looking up.

"Wow, it's so high!"

"So steep!"

"It looks like someone chopped it in the middle with a knife!"

Xiao Tang: "... Let's go forward. It's too high to fly over here. We need to come down and pass through the mountain."

To be honest, the road through the Broken Vein Mountain is really not easy. The mountain is too high. It is difficult to climb over it with a sword or a flying magic weapon. Only the great masters of the Golden Core Stage can directly jump over such a steep cliff.

Qin Ruqing and his friends rely on jumping or short-distance gliding to shuttle through the dense forest. They dare not go straight through because they will pass through the core of the Broken Vein Mountain. God knows what kind of thousand-year-old monster lives there. They can only go around the outer edge, which takes a lot of effort.

Not to mention that the entire journey relied on manpower to shuttle, the main reason was that there were many monsters in the dense forest, and they did not dare to let their guard down the entire time. Even when they were meditating and resting, they had to leave one or two people on guard. After a few days, everyone looked depressed.

Until they came to a steep cliff, the sky on the other side of the cliff was bright. Even if they could not see the situation on the other side clearly, they knew that the view on the other side must be much more open. Finally

, the few people were a little encouraged. Tang Zifeng quickened his pace and said, "After crossing this cliff, we have passed the fault mountain and reached the boundary of Xiling." Finally, when the view in front of them was opened up, the heat wave rolled in. Without any words, the body temperature directly told everyone that they had arrived at Xiling.

The distinct temperature made Qirong rub his arms in surprise, "It's really hot, so magical, why is there such a big temperature difference with only a mountain range?"

Qin Ruqing was still thinking about Huoyan Mountain, "Is it Huoyan Mountain if we go a little further?"

Tang Zifeng hummed and took out the flying tool again, but it was not the ugly flying boat, but a sand boat.

He said that it would be faster and more labor-saving to use this in the desert. So the four of them got on the boat and started to ride on the sand.

The three ducks living in the dense forest oasis had never seen such a vast desert landscape. The sky was high and the land was vast, and the warm and broad yellow was endless. The sand boat traveled on it, up and down along the slope, and it felt like traveling through the ocean.

Just as Qin Ruqing and the others were staring at them, a slender figure suddenly appeared on the other side of the sand dune, looming in the heat. As they got

closer, they found that it was a female cultivator dressed very lightly, riding on a skateboard on the sand.

The female cultivator was wearing a red dress, with her breasts only covered by a tight top, revealing a large area of ​​healthy wheat-colored skin at the shoulders and waist. The fabric of her lower body was also very limited, and the thin gauze skirt was already looming enough, but she had to split it from the side, almost to the root of her thighs, revealing her slender and tight thigh muscles.

She rolled up the control rope with one hand, and because of the speed, she was flying high from the highest point of the sand dune. In the flying yellow sand, she saw someone and shouted, "Get out of my way!"

The three little ones had never seen such a battle before.

Lu Wei was shocked: The female cultivator from Xiling is so unrestrained!

Qi Rong: Because the sister opposite was wearing too little, he started to cover his eyes, but couldn't help but peeking through a gap of fingers.

Qing: Haha, sister is so hot, I love her so much!

Tang Zifeng calmly adjusted the direction of the sand boat to make way for the female cultivator. The hot female cultivator passed by in a flash, bringing a burst of fragrant wind and dust, and flew away quickly.

Qin Ruqing followed the female cultivator with his eyes until her graceful figure completely disappeared, and then he looked away with regret. After a while, he became excited again, "Tang Zifeng, are all the female cultivators in Xiling so sexy?"

Tang Zifeng didn't think they were sexy at all, and said expressionlessly, "They really didn't wear much clothes."

Qin Ruqing was excited: Fuck!

She shook Lu Wei's arm: "Third sister, that dress is so beautiful. When we get back to the main city of Xiling, let's buy something like that. It's so hot!"

Lu Wei hesitated: "But, the fabric seems a little insufficient..."

Qin Ruqing: "It's so hot here, you should wear so little. It looks so good. Let's wear it! Third sister~"

Lu Wei: "Well, wear it!"

After chatting with the hot female cultivator for a while, Qin Ruqing realized that the temperature around him had risen. My God, the air seemed to be burning, and the surrounding stone walls seemed to be roasted red.

Tang Zifeng didn't know where he pressed the sand boat, and the sand boat began to reveal an aura shield that covered the inside of the boat. The temperature dropped a little.

He looked at Qin Ruqing, but found that he was fine, not even sweating. Hmm? Not afraid of the heat?

Qin Ruqing was holding a kettle and feeding Lu Wei with water. Qirong had always been strong and healthy. Although he was sweating profusely from the heat, he could still bear it. Lu Wei was a little bit weaker and was about to faint from the heat.

Qin Ruqing thought about it and decided that this would not work. She had to think of a way... Besides, why wasn't she hot? As if sensing something, Qin Ruqing took out a pendant from her collar.

Ah, the jade pendant that combined the cold black ice and chalcedony. Did it work?

Qin Ruqing had always used it as a kind of ornament. Now it seemed to be able to be used as a small mobile air conditioner, which was not bad.

She took out a piece of ice from the storage bag with a clang. It was azure in color. As soon as the ice came out, the aura shield became much cooler, and the third sister's complexion also improved visibly.

Tang Zifeng fixed her eyes on the ice block, and pursed her lips. One hundred thousand year old profound cold ice? She really has it! And only Qin Ruqing can use such a treasure to cool down.

Qin Ruqing watched her third sister slowly approach, and patted the ice block with her little hands with satisfaction, "Not bad, it is worthy of being frozen for a hundred thousand years. It has not melted at all in such a hot day." It's really wrong.

"Qi Rong, third sister, didn't I also give you a small piece of ten thousand year old profound cold ice? When you get there, cut off a small piece and put it on your body. Then we won't be afraid of the temperature in Xiling!"

Qi Rong and Lu Wei nodded heavily.

Qin Ruqing moved her eyes to Tang Zifeng again. He sat upright, still controlling the sand boat, with a little sweat on his forehead, but he looked much better, probably because he was used to living here for many years.

Qin Ruqing thought about it, moved to his side, and stretched out his palm. There was a small piece of blue on it, which obviously exuded the same aura as the 100,000-year-old cold black ice in the sand boat.

"Tang Zifeng, this is for you."

Tang Zifeng took a look, but turned his head away, "No, it's very expensive, I don't want it."

Qin Ruqing was impatient to bother him about this matter, so he stuffed the ice into his hand, interrupted his seal posture, and pushed him aside.

"Just take it. Well, you have been controlling it for so long, let me do it."

As he said that, he really started to control the boat himself. Her driving style is different from Tang Zifeng's. Tang Zifeng's driving style is steady and fast, while Qin Ruqing... Qin Ruqing's driving style is to step on the accelerator to the bottom.

Sure enough, the sand boat paused, and then moved forward. Because the speed was too fast, a layer of sand was thrown out from the stern, and then the sand boat began to move at a high speed.

Tang Zifeng held the ice in one hand, frowned and watched Qin Ruqing driving the flying boat recklessly forward.

This is why he tried his best not to let Qin Ruqing touch any means of transportation. Any flying boat or sand boat, in Qin Ruqing's hands, would feel like a cannon hitting Mars.

Tang Zifeng sighed silently, put away the cold and mysterious ice, formed a seal with one hand, and quietly stabilized the stern of the sand boat.

This time, Sha Zhou finally stopped twisting his butt wildly and could move forward steadily.

Qin Ruqing in front exclaimed: "I think I can drive this thing~"

Tang Zifeng: "Yeah."

Finally, they passed through the Flame Mountain and arrived at Xiling City.

Qin Ruqing really did what he said. When he arrived in the city, the first thing he did was to drag his third sister to buy hot Western clothes.

Half an hour later, four young and beautiful men and women appeared on the streets of Xiling City, perfectly integrating into the style of Xiling.

Among them, the two female cultivators had very different styles, but each had its own merits. The female cultivator with a high ponytail had a more eye-catching face. She was wearing a golden-red gauze dress, a small tube top with a layer of red short top, and a high-slit skirt, revealing her fair and slender calves. On her right ankle, she wore a string of golden bells on her ankle, which jingled when she moved, which was very consistent with the temperament of this female cultivator.

The other female cultivator was more dignified and graceful. She was wearing the same clothes, but in pink. The gauze dress she wore was not short, but a little longer. She had a sword on her waist, which was a little abrupt. Strangely, her face was slightly red, and she seemed to be unable to walk.

The two were naturally Qin Ruqing and Lu Wei.

Qi Rong, who followed behind, put on Xiling's big pants for the first time in his life, revealing half of his arms and a bone chain around his neck. This is a common outfit for Xiling body cultivators, but unlike Xiling body cultivators, Qi Rong's muscles are smooth and not strong, and he looks like a tall boy with red lips and white teeth.

The only Xiling person among the four was dressed the least like Xiling. Tang Zifeng was still wrapped up tightly, the only difference was that he changed into a lighter material than before, and then, at Qin Ruqing's suggestion, he opened the collar a little, barely in line with the characteristics of Xiling.

The four of them stopped in a teahouse and began to discuss the next countermeasures.

"Xiaowu, what should we do now? Should we go directly to Tang's house?"

Qirong also looked at Tang Zifeng, "Yes, Brother Tang, should we stay at the inn or at Tang's house tonight?"

Qin Ruqing put the teacup to his lips and smiled, "We would like to stay at Tang's house, but they may not welcome us... Tang Zifeng, have you thought about what to do next?"

After Tang Zifeng entered the Xiling urban area, he seemed a little silent. He thought about it and shook his head, "I don't know."

Qin Ruqing glanced at Tang Zifeng and roughly understood his complicated mood. He was driven out of his home and wandered in Nanling. He tried hard to transfer from Zhang's family to Qin's family. He finally got the Qin's family's permission and returned to Xiling with the elixir, but he began to feel timid for a while.

Many years have passed. Is the Tang family still the same Tang family? Are the people who drove him away living well in the Tang family? Is his return voluntary? Are there really people in this family who welcome him, even if he offers generous conditions and can bring huge benefits to the family.

Even if these people are really moved by the benefits and agree to his return to the Tang Sect, the injustice still exists. Wouldn't it be aggrieved to go back like this?

Therefore, Tang Zifeng said he didn't know, and he really didn't know. He had prepared everything he could, but for a moment, he didn't know where to start.

Qin Ruqing sighed in his heart. Xiao Tang was still too serious. He couldn't do some tricks and wouldn't think about them.

Therefore, he brought enough benefits to the Tang family in an orderly manner, but he didn't know that for some things, benefits alone are not enough.

Qin Ruqing put the teacup on the table with a sound, attracted the attention of the other three people, and said lightly: "If you want to come to the door, how can you not get some information about the person? Maybe it's not convenient for the person?"

Then he stretched out his hand and called the waiter at the back. Teahouses and taverns are the best places to get information.

The "waiter" came over quickly. It turned out to be a charming and charming big sister with black eyes and rare curly hair. At this time, the curly-haired sister glanced at them, and her eyes fell on Qin Ruqing who greeted her at the beginning, and said: "What do you want, guests?"

Qin Ruqing directly took out a spiritual stone and stuffed it into the beautiful sister's hand, and said with a smile: "I want to ask the beautiful sister something."

The curly-haired sister looked at the spiritual stone, and her beautiful eyes flashed with surprise. It's just to get some information. There are many such people in teahouses and restaurants, but they offer a spirit stone for every dollar they spend, and with such appearance and demeanor... she didn't hesitate to take the spirit stone, raised her red lips, and said, "Little sister, you are so sweet. Tell me, whatever you want to ask, I will tell you everything."

Qin Ruqing said, "I want to know from you about the situation of the Tang family, a big family in Xiling. I also know the taboos, so just tell me the news that everyone knows."

"As for the Tang family," the sister's eyes flashed slightly, "as everyone knows, the Tang family is a silver family, the largest family in Xiling, and most of the family members are weapon cultivators..."

Qin Ruqing nodded, as if waiting for her to continue. The elder sister laughed, "Little sister, forgive me for being blunt, but what I just said can be said by anyone on the street. Information in this aristocratic family is strictly controlled. We, the little people, really don't know what explosive information there is, and I'm afraid we are not worthy of a spiritual stone from you."

Qin Ruqing held her chin up, not in a hurry at all, "Then elder sister, please talk about the genius of the Tang family. I like to hear this the most. Isn't there a multi-tool cultivator in his family? Is there any famous master tool refiner?"

"Great weapon refining master..." The elder sister pondered for a while and said, "A weapon refining family like the Tang family naturally has many weapon refining masters, but it seems that there has never been any talent that spreads far and wide... Oh, some years ago, about four or five years ago, I seemed to have heard that there was a direct descendant who was gifted in weapon refining and rode Juechen. He won the first place in some weapon refining competition and was famous for a while. Later, I don’t know what happened, but this direct disciple seemed to have a brain disorder and killed a member of the clan with the spiritual weapon he refined. It seemed that it was the son of the clan leader. This time his future was ruined. Later I heard that he was driven out of the family and disappeared from then on." Killed

the clan leader’s son... Qin Ruqing felt a little sad, and Qi Rong and Lu Wei’s eyes also flashed.

Then the elder sister continued, "In the past few years, the most famous weapon forger in the Tang family should be Tang Biao, the younger brother of the Tang clan leader. He is already quite old, but he seems to have suddenly become proficient in weapon forging, and now he is almost the leader of the Tang family's weapon forging."

After saying this, the curly-haired elder sister stopped, "Little sister, this is about all the news I know about the Tang family. I don't know if it is enough!"

"Enough, thank you for clearing up my confusion!" Qin Ruqing said, and she actually took out another spiritual stone and stuffed it into her hand, "Sister, I also want to know about the Yang family." Yang

family. Lu Wei glanced at Qin Ruqing, thinking. Tang Zifeng also moved his eyes to Qin Ruqing's face, how did she know about the Yang family.

This spiritual stone has a very good effect. It seems that it is rare to see such generous people in Xiling. The curly-haired sister told everything she knew.

"As for the Yang family, this family was also powerful in the early years. At that time, there were two silver-quality families in Xiling, one was the Tang family, and the other was the Yang family. However, their family did not seem to complete the golden elixir inheritance. None of the younger generations had formed the elixir, and later they gradually lost their quality. Now, compared with before, they are naturally much more decadent. This family is all physical cultivators, and their main business is caravan transportation and armed escort. Oh, the most noteworthy thing is that they also have an auction house!"

Auction house? Even Qin Ruqing was shocked when he heard these three words. Not every family can run this auction house. It requires extremely high reputation and strength. Take the Qin family for example. Even though they have developed to this level, they are still not good enough to run an auction house. At least they have to wait until their ancestors have reached the state of elixir before they can manage this place.

The curly-haired sister nodded: "This auction house is naturally a product left over from their ancestors' heyday. Their family also runs caravans for transportation, so they can naturally get a lot of good things from outside. But now, the family has declined, and the auction house can't produce any decent rare items, so gradually no one goes there."

Maybe it was because Qin Ruqing's two spirit stones were really powerful, and the sister also gave an extra family news. It seems that Qin Ruqing and his family's main purpose is to find out the relationship between the aristocratic families in Xiling.

"Another big family worth mentioning in Xiling is the Lin family. Their development momentum is very strong. I heard that they have already built three foundations. All they need is for their ancestor to form a golden core before they can impact the silver level. Moreover, this family is also engaged in refining weapons, and they are not on good terms with the Tang family." They

are both engaged in refining weapons, and are about to impact the silver level. Not only are they not on good terms, they may even start a fight if they are not careful.

"Okay, little sister, I have said everything I should say. Are you satisfied?"

Seeing Qin Ruqing nod, she gave him a charming look, and finally twisted her waist and walked away charmingly.

After the curly-haired beauty left, there was a moment of silence at the table. Combined with the news she said, Tang Zifeng should be...

Qirong couldn't hold back his words and whispered, "Brother Tang, the one who was once famous and then... was it you?"

Qin Ruqing held his forehead, saying that there was nothing he could do with Rong Qiuer's straightness. Can he ask this question directly?

Lu Wei also pushed Qirong and looked at Tang Zifeng worriedly.

Tang Zifeng's eyes fell on a place on the table and suddenly said, "I didn't kill anyone!"

Qin Ruqing followed and slammed the table hard, "What a joke!" Tang Zifeng's eyes suddenly became sharp, even a little sad, meaning that even you don't believe me.

"... Are you kidding? You definitely didn't kill that person. Do you need to explain this again? Qirong was not asking if you killed that person just now. He was simply asking if that genius weapon maker was you. He thinks you are amazing and feels sorry for your experience. Isn't that right, Qirong?"

Qirong realized that he seemed to have said something wrong. He covered his mouth and apologized anxiously, "Yes, yes! Just like my sister said... I wasn't asking about murder. Sorry, Brother Tang."

Tang Zifeng's expression softened and he shook his head, "It's okay, I'm just being sensitive."

Qin Ruqing clapped her hands lightly, immediately dispelling the heavy atmosphere. She said, "The current situation is obvious. The people who are messing with you are in the limelight and definitely don't want you to come back."

Tang Zifeng lowered his eyes and hummed.

"Since we have come to Xiling, I will say some things directly. Our Qin family will definitely keep our promise and help you return to the family. But we also want you to have an attitude - do you want to beg the family and use benefits as a bargaining chip to let them let you go back, or, on the contrary, let them take the initiative to beg you to let you go back. These two attitudes will lead to completely different methods, it depends on your choice."

Is he going to beg the family or let the family beg him.

Tang Zifeng looked at Qin Ruqing quietly, and after a few seconds, she said, "I want them to beg me."

"Okay, you have ambition!" Qin Ruqing waved her fist, as if she had guessed Xiao Tang's choice long ago. Her eyes were bright, and she immediately said with a hint of excitement, "Then let's do something big in Xiling!"

In Xiling, she wanted to make her Qin family's name known thoroughly, and then help Xiao Tang return to the family, and finally make a small levitation. This is the great goal Qin Ruqing has set for herself in her heart!

"Big? How to do it?" Qirong and Lu Wei said in unison.

Qin Ruqing chuckled, "We're unfamiliar with Xiling, so of course we have to find a mountain to visit first. If the Tang family doesn't welcome us, then we can go to another one!"

When walking towards the Yang family, Tang Zifeng walked beside Qin Ruqing and suddenly said, "You asked me about my choice just now, but actually... maybe I have no choice at all." It felt like she had already made up her mind in her little head.

Qin Ruqing glanced at him and laughed, "Of course you have no choice. People have slapped you in the face, slandered you, and kicked you out of the house, but you don't want to take revenge and give your family such a big benefit, thinking that they will let you go back for the sake of benefit. Even Buddha doesn't have such a good temper as you!"

Tang Zifeng pondered, "Then I just..."

Qin Ruqing smiled: "If you still want to knock on the door of the Tang family and negotiate with them in a good temper, I will certainly respect it, but... I will keep brainwashing you on the way and try to make you change your mind!"

Tang Zifeng was silent.

"Why, do you think I am interfering with your thoughts?"

Tang Zifeng shook his head, he glanced at Qin Ruqing, and said seriously: "No, you are right."

Qin Ruqing smiled at him, ran to the front and hugged her third sister's arm at ease.

Arriving at the door of Yang's house, Qin Ruqing went forward and knocked on the door. The servant who opened the door looked at Qin Ruqing and the person behind her, bowed slightly, and said politely: "Dear guest, are you here?"

Qin Ruqing calmly took out a waist card and handed it to the servant, "Help me pass it to the owner of this waist card, and say that an old friend is visiting, please meet him."

The servant took the waist card, which was engraved with the word "Yang". He turned it over and saw the small characters specially engraved by the Yang family on the back. He immediately bowed and his attitude became more respectful: "Dear guest, please wait a moment."

When Yang Wenxu came out of Yang's house, he was still wondering who was looking for him? As a result, he opened the door and saw a female cultivator wearing Xiling clothing standing at the door.

This appearance, this look... Even if he had only seen her once, Yang Wenxu was still impressed. Isn't this the young lady of the Qin family who has a respected status?

Qin Ruqing stood tall and waved his hand familiarly when he saw the visitor:

"Hi, Taoist Yang, I'm here to visit Xiling. May I welcome you?"

Yang Wenxu was stunned.

So, this ancestor really came to visit? !
