Let’s talk about what happened after Jiang Bei left the villa where Xu Wanqing was.
Sure enough, I saw the Xu family members waiting anxiously at the gate.
"Mr. Jiang, my daughter is now..." Xu Changlin took the initiative to step forward, looking quite anxious, and the charming woman next to him, if not unexpectedly, should be Xu Wanqing's mother.
Their facial features seem to be carved from the same mold, and their temperaments are also very similar.
But I didn't expect that such a gentle and elegant beauty would be the same as her father, and become a martial arts fanatic obsessed with ancient martial arts.
"Uncle Xu, please rest assured. Miss Xu has successfully broken through to the Grandmaster level." Jiang Bei smiled rather stiffly.
"Thank you, Mr. Jiang." Xu Changlin hurriedly thanked him.
"My dear Jiang, if it weren't for you, Wanqing wouldn't have been able to become a master so easily. I have prepared some small gifts, I hope my dear Jiang won't refuse." Xu Jiansheng on the side also breathed a sigh of relief, and a kind smile appeared on his face again.
But what Jiang Bei still doesn't understand is...
Why does this Xu family member look like they want to eat me?
I instinctively wanted to refuse, quickly cut off ties with the Xu family and leave.
But if I don’t take some money before leaving... I would really be letting myself down.
The three gifts from the Xue family last time were all of extraordinary value.
Just the Fire Cloud Grass alone brought Jiang Bei a rich harvest.
Otherwise, after the battle with Old Man Xuanwu that day, let alone being able to help Xue Yu advance to the Grandmaster level, he would probably have to recuperate for ten days or half a month before he could get out of bed.
And because he listened to what the women at home said, Jiang Bei dared not touch Xu Wanqing. He even "went one step further" and added another rule for himself: he must not look at her!
But if an equal amount of true Qi is used to help Xu Wanqing advance, the final result will definitely be that Xu Wanqing's strength is inferior to Xue Yu.
This...is not easy to deal with.
Since Xue Yu has already come to Shanghai, Xu Wanqing, who is obsessed with ancient martial arts, will definitely go to challenge Xue Yu to a fight.
By then...it would be bad if biased facts came to light.
So although Jiang Bei did not act recklessly this time, the price he paid was that he paid more true energy.
As a result, the true energy in his body is now less than 20%.
Jiang Bei nodded and did not refuse.
…
Not long.
The group has returned to the back hall of the Xu family's ancestral home.
As expected, there were two simple wooden boxes on Xu Jiansheng's desk. If I wasn't mistaken, one of them was made of golden nanmu! ..
This kind of wood is extremely rare and can be said to be hard to come by. In ancient times, it was supplied to the royal family for use in building palaces and mausoleums.
And its greatest function is that it can keep the corpse from decaying for thousands of years!
Jiang Bei took a quick look with his spiritual sense and knew that the Xu family's gift was just as he thought, a medicinal herb that was extremely suitable for him.
A true elixir can absorb the spiritual energy between heaven and earth, but once it is picked, the spiritual energy will quickly dissipate.
But if you see it but don’t pick it…what if there’s a strong wind or hail one day, wouldn’t you be left with no tears to cry?
This golden nanmu wood is made into a box to preserve the spirituality of medicinal materials, which is also a major function.
The Xu family was not stupid either. After hearing Jiang Bei say that it would take ten days or half a month to recover from this attack, they specially asked someone to prepare this herb.
"Mr. Jiang, this is heavenly gold and black iron! If it is cast into a magic weapon, it will be invincible." Xu Jiansheng introduced.
This one alone is worth as much as the three treasures of the Xue family!
It is not difficult to see that he was reluctant to part with such a precious treasure.
Even if they really agreed to cancel the engagement... and didn't do anything else, the Xu family still owed Jiang Bei a favor.
Although the marriage is called off in name only, in reality...
Oh! This favor is too big to be repaid.
But as we all know, Senior Xu is a man who cares about his reputation. He can't just give up if he can't pay it back, right? So he still has to take out some valuables from the clan treasury.
"As for this herb..."
When Mr. Xu opened the golden nanmu box, revealing a dark blue herb with faint white spots on it, a rich medicinal fragrance instantly filled the room.
Star grass!
This is the only thing that can have such an effect and such a rich spiritual energy!
Jiang Bei's eyes froze instantly. He had only seen this name in Old Man Lu's ancient books, and there wasn't even a picture of it.
He just thought the appearance was similar to the description, but he didn't expect...
"Mr. Jiang, my father accidentally got a precious herb called Tianxing Grass in his early years, but because he didn't take good care of it and didn't dare to use it carelessly, the medicinal effect of this herb was lost by 30%."
"But we did come to a clear conclusion. This grass is nourished by the spiritual energy of the weather, and the spiritual energy within it is extremely terrifying."
"It cannot be used unless one has extremely strong Qi and blood. Even a single leaf is enough to kill a person. And I'm afraid only a Grandmaster, and a Grandmaster with truly extraordinary strength, can use it."
Xu Jiansheng said with emotion.
Jiang Bei nodded.
That was about as far as he knew.
After knowing this... the Xu family never even thought of using it.
Abundant blood and energy represent youth, and the oldest cannot be over 40 years old, but one still has to be a grandmaster with extraordinary strength?
Isn't this nonsense?
But it’s easy now, just give it to someone!
To the Xu family, this was just a piece of waste occupying a golden nanmu box, but to Jiang Bei, its value was immeasurable.
I guess... this one is worth Mr. Lu’s five ginseng kings!
And it doesn’t take up any space in your stomach!
"Young friend Jiang, please don't act recklessly. Although this herb has lost 30% of its spiritual power, its strength has not diminished at all."
"I know. Senior Xu, have you forgotten that my master is a doctor?" Jiang Bei said with a smile.
"That's good." Xu Jiansheng nodded.
Just as I was about to introduce the last gift, my cell phone suddenly rang.
He was about to hang up.
But I saw the name "Xu Weiliang" on the caller ID.
Xu Weiliang is the youngest son of his third brother, and also his nephew.
He has a pretty good talent in martial arts. At the age of 35, he barely reached the Grandmaster level last year.
When the Shanghai Film and Television City was attacked by foreign assassins, Mr. Xu organized the power of his hidden family to go abroad for revenge and to train the young generation of ancient warriors.
In the huge city of Shanghai, dozens of ancient warriors were dispatched in a grand manner, led by Xu Weiliang!
Although the young generation today may not be as strong as the previous generation, if we really take a look at them, none of them are weak.
And ancient martial arts are the real killing skills!
As long as they cooperate properly, they will have no problem facing even those powerful killer organizations.
But it’s only been a few days?
Is there good news already?
"Mr. Jiang, let me take a call first." Xu Jiansheng said directly.
Old Master Xu had a feeling that the incident at the film and television city was most likely related to Jiangbei. Although the official announcement was that the "national blade" was deployed, who knew what this blade was?
Is it possible that it was just one person?
And he knew that Jiang Bei had been a soldier before!
Therefore, if I could use this incident to gain some favor from Jiangbei... that would naturally be great.
It can also help him save his dignity, otherwise it would be difficult for this old man to regain his face in front of Jiang Bei.
but……
Xu Weiliang on the other end of the phone said just one sentence, but it made Xu Jiansheng stand up suddenly with empty eyes.
"Uncle, something happened!"
"The original siege is over. We have wiped out the Black Fox Killer Organization overnight, but three people suddenly appeared... None of those who were carrying out the mission survived..."
Xu Weiliang seemed to be panicking. A 35-year-old man, crying at this moment, he couldn't even utter a complete and coherent sentence.
But this was enough for Xu Jiansheng to understand.
"How many of you are left?"
"Six people. The six of us did not participate in tonight's operation. None of the fifty-seven people survived."
