Chapter 1184 The Son of the City Lord

But Xiao Huibai doesn't want to live in this kind of environment all the time. She has nothing to eat and no clothes. She would rather be bought away than continue to stay like this. Although she doesn't know whether the person she bought is good or bad, at least there is Chance can change.

So she took a gamble, and now she doesn't know whether she was right or wrong.

Ye Tian looked at Xiao Huibai and walked away from the booth with two eyes. There was no emotion in those bright eyes. Such an expression appeared on the face of a thirteen or fourteen-year-old girl, and he couldn't help sighing. .

It seems that the previous life has changed this little girl's temperament, and it will take time to slowly mend these injuries.

The slave owner saw Ye Tian and greeted him, but he didn't recognize that the little girl next to him was Xiao Huibai who was locked in the cage yesterday.

This kind of atmosphere was a bit depressing, Ye Tian didn't say anything, and took Xiao Huibai to walk around to have a look.

"Hey, wait a minute."

Ye Tian was walking on the road, when he heard a voice behind him, he didn't think it was calling him. After all, he was not familiar with the place and didn't know anyone, who would stop him.

The man ran up to Ye Tian, ​​panting, and stopped him with his hands open.

"I've been calling you from behind for a long time, and you just ignore me no matter what."

"You are calling me?" Ye Tian was a little surprised, who is this person, do they know each other?

"I saw yesterday that the stone you bought at a stall was willing to pay double the price. As for that stone, have you cut it? If not, I'll buy it again." The man finally breathed a sigh of relief and straightened his back. Look directly at Ye Tian.

This person has a certain demeanor, although his appearance is mediocre, but he is a very attractive type. He is dressed in luxurious clothes, and the jade pendant on his waist is not ordinary, but there is no fluctuation of spiritual energy on his body, like an ordinary person. people like that.

His introduction reminded Ye Tian. Yesterday was the last person who said that he would buy the stone in his hand for 20,000 jadeite, but when he turned around, that person had already been bought by the peddlers. Surrounded, unable to see clearly, just let yourself go.

Listening to the discussion, it seems to be the son of the city lord?

"I'm sorry, I already cut that stone open yesterday, and there is no treasure inside." Ye Tian cupped his fists, after all, who would tell if the treasure was cut, whether the other party believed it or not, anyway, he just said there was no treasure. .

"Ah, that's fine." The man was a little annoyed when he heard that, but he still raised his head and clasped his fists at Ye Tian.

"I'm Tu Gaoyi, the son of Master Tu, the city lord. I'm sorry to disturb you."

"It's okay, I'm just strolling around."

"That's just right, why don't I invite you to the Taohuazhai in front of me for dinner?"

Ye Tian happened to not want to go back to the Lingluo Mansion either. He had no interest in seeing the sisters when something like this happened today. The incident happened because of them. If he knew that he saved them, he would be beaten up by their clansmen. It won't help.

"Then it would be better to obey than to be respectful."

"Your Excellency, please."

The three of them went together to the Taohuazhai together.

The son of the city lord, Tu Gaoyi, seemed to come here often to eat, and he went directly to the top floor without saying hello, and the waiter also brought out one after another of delicacies.

"I don't know what your name is. I left in a hurry just now and didn't have time to ask for advice."

"Under the kingship." Ye Tian thought for a while, and in this Hongwu Continent, he should use this pseudonym first, and then use his real name to walk in the Central Holy Continent.

"I know you. You have scheduled a group arena match with Mu Yuan of the Mu clan, and the fight will start tomorrow. Brother Ye, why are you still leisurely hanging out here?" Tu Gaoyi knew Ye Tian's name, and immediately changed his address.

"Just fight, there's no need to make more preparations for it." Although Ye Tian came to this world not long ago, it's only been more than a month, but now he still has confidence in this kind of small fight duel. The ruins at the bottom of the lake and the guardians of the ruins must have asked for some exercises. Although they are not particularly powerful, they are enough for normal situations.

"Brother Ye is very relieved. It is said that Muyuan is deeply appreciated by the elders of the family, and he made an exception to teach some martial arts in person. This Muyuan is famous on the list of talents." Tu Gaoyi poured a pot of wine for himself, and then gave it to Ye Tian poured a glass.

"Oh? Has the talent list started to have rankings?" Ye Tian didn't know about this news, he thought the talent list would only come out after finishing the group arena there.

"Brother Ye is really joking. There is this list of talents every year, but it's just difficult to gather for a real competition. The place of returning to one is a good place, just for monks from all over the world to gather and compete."

"You just said that Mu Yuan is on the list, so what is his exact ranking?"

"On the seventeenth."

"Seventeen, it doesn't seem to be very powerful."

Seeing Ye Tian's comment, Tu Gaoyi stopped the chopsticks in his hand and said seriously.

"Brother Ye, don't underestimate the gold content of this list of talents. It has gathered outstanding young monks for nearly a thousand years. It is ranked based on the entire world. No one in our Jade Crystal Realm can compare with that kind of convincing power. .”

"Is that so?" Ye Tian ate the food, thinking carefully about what he just said.

This list of talents is really high in gold content, not all kinds of miscellaneous fish can make it, so this Kihara is ranked seventeenth on the list, I don't know if it is mixed with water or relying on his true strength.

"Brother Ye, I heard that the cause of this incident is..." Tu Gaoyi said again in front of Ye Tian that the people from the Miao family poured dirty water on him, and Ye Tian was so annoyed that he didn't even bother to pick up vegetables.

"This Miao family is really interesting. Aren't you afraid of being punished by God for turning black and white like this?" Ye Tian cursed secretly, and Xiao Huibai who was concentrating on eating dishes beside him was taken aback by him.

Seeing that it scared people, Ye Tian endured the anger in his heart and looked at her with a smile, telling her to eat well.

"Brother Ye is kind to this lion girl."

"Why, you can see that she is a lion girl?"

"I'm born with the ability to distinguish orcs. I knew she was the first time I saw you, but I just heard what Brother Ye said. Could it be that there is something hidden about your gambling fight with Mu Yuan?"

Then Ye Tian told Tu Gaoyi all the ins and outs of the matter, and Tu Gaoyi was also a little annoyed when he heard Miao's behavior.

"How can a cultivator do such an act, which insults the heart of the Tao." Tu Gaoyi complained for Ye Tian.

"It's up to him, they can do whatever they like, and I just want to borrow their boat."

"Borrow a boat?"

"Borrowing a boat? I don't know where Brother Ye is going. Our City Lord's Mansion also has an intercontinental warship, which is not necessarily worse than that of the Miao clan."

Hearing these words, Ye Tian's eyes brightened. If there were warships in Tu Gaoyi's mansion, he wouldn't have to be their Miao clan's warships. He had more choices and more paths.

"I need to go to the Central Holy Continent to participate in the opportunity competition for the land of unity."

"That's great. I'm going to the Central Holy Continent. Our City Lord's Mansion also has a quota. It just so happens that there are no other people of the right age in the City Lord's Mansion. This quota should belong to me." Tu Gaoyi said with a smile.

Ye Tian didn't care, this person might say that it was a lie to come to him today to ask for that stone, but it was true that he wanted to strike up a conversation with him. Ye Tian doesn't dislike this kind of situation, many friends have many ways out, it's not a bad thing to have a good relationship and be friends.

"Where did Brother Ye get his quota? I don't think the Miao clan will hand over this quota easily." Tu Gaoyi drank another glass and said to Ye Tian while pouring wine.

"I don't need this quota from the Miao clan, but their behavior makes me a little disgusted. Even if I don't want this quota, I won't give it back to them easily."

"I'm afraid that if that's the case, brother Ye is going to have a bad relationship with that Miao clan."

"So what about fighting against each other, they are not the only ones in this world, and they have the right to speak wherever they are strong."

"Brother Ye is right, let me toast you." Tu Gaoyi said, raising his glass to Ye Tian.

Ye Tian gestured to him, and drank the wine in the glass in one gulp.

"If something happens to Brother Ye and you can't get on the boat, you can come to me, and I promise that I won't treat Brother Ye like the Miao Clan."

"That's naturally excellent. Considering the face of the Miao clan, it is really possible to do such a thing."

"Perhaps the Miao people have been used to being pampered and respected in Nanya Capital these years, so they are inevitably a little arrogant. It would be great to be hit by Brother Ye."

"That's right, but Brother Tu, I didn't feel any aura fluctuations from you. Are you not a monk?" Ye Tian asked. , I am afraid it is difficult to convince the public.

"Brother Ye can also see it, because I have no spiritual roots since I was a child, and I can't cultivate immortality and Taoism, so my father passed on the mantle to me, and I have practiced a rare line of physical arts."

"Physical arts?" Ye Tian was a little surprised. Most people focus on cultivating Taoism, and few practice physical arts. I have also met a person who cultivates both Taoism and body, and his strength is very strong. The level of that person's physical skills is the same as his level of cultivation. When I met him, he was considered a very strong opponent.

"I've heard that there are five realms in body art, entering qi, going out, coming again, Tuohua, and ascending dragon. I don't know what realm Brother Tu is in now."

Tu Gaoyi smiled, raised the wine in his glass and shook it there.

"I'm not talented, but I can only reach the Tuohua realm, which is far behind Brother Ye who reached the Lidi realm at a young age."

The state of Tuohua is not low. Those who can cultivate physical skills to this level are mostly determined in their minds. Those who practice physical skills are very painful physically. Few people can persevere. This Tu Gaoyi can persist to this point , the strength is really extraordinary.

"According to Brother Tu, it seems that he has some understanding of my strength?"

"When I was young, I used to travel around with my father. I once saw a person like Brother Ye who reached the realm of standing at a young age, and his body was full of arrogance. I was envious when I saw this, but I couldn't practice Taoism, so I had to give up. "Tu Gaoyi really said Ye Tian's realm in a few words, which surprised Ye Tian.

But he didn't show any strange expression, neither admitted nor denied, just smiled at Tu Gaoyi.

"It seems that my guess is right, but Brother Ye, do you know that Mu Yuan is also in this realm?"

This passage caught Ye Tian's attention. He thought it would be extraordinary to step into the Lidi realm at this age with his good luck, but he didn't expect that Kihara was also a monk of the Lidi realm.

"It's not just Kihara, the top 20 on the talent list have all stepped into the ground. Brother Ye, you may think that this achievement is not easy at such a young age, but you need to know that the world is big, and there are always people who have more opportunities than others."

If the facts are really as what Tu Gaoyi said, then he has to re-evaluate whether his own strength can reliably defeat those people and enter the top ten.

"Not only the top 20 monks, but even many other monks are above this level. Most of them did not cultivate to this point with their own strength. Some families piled up rich resources and poured them into the seedlings in the family. effect."

"In this way, as long as people who are not too indifferent to the Tao can generally go to the Taixu Realm, Taixu enters the Dao, and once the hurdle is passed, they can then use more resources to hit the Lidi Realm. For a long time family, this kind of behavior is not uncommon." Tu Gaoyi explained.

If you can cultivate to the realm of standing ground casually, then it would be like nothing.

"Thank you, Brother Tu, for sharing the news. Ye is very grateful." Ye Tian clasped his fists at Tu Gaoyi. It was indeed very necessary and useful for him to be able to tell him so many important news from someone he had just met.

"These are nothing." Tu Gaoyi waved his hand, indicating that you are welcome.

Then they continued talking here for some time, well into the night.

"Boss, the man told the son of the city lord that he hasn't left yet." A figure in black jumped out from the street in the middle of the night, and came to the courtyard of Lingluo Mansion where Ye Tian lived. There were actually people behind the roof wall. Ambush there.

"Don't worry, he's definitely going to come back at night. I've already made it clear to the downstairs. He has no other place to stay except here."

"But he is acquainted with the son of the city lord, if he alarms the city lord..."

"Don't worry, this person has only been here for two days. He appeared in the area of ​​Ziluo Island before. He should have just met the son of the city lord. The person he just met died. He has nothing to report to the city lord."

"Then the captain, shall we wait on this roof?"

"Just waiting on the eaves."

At this time, Ye Tian was still chatting happily with Tu Gaoyi, not knowing that someone was ambushing him in this courtyard.

"Brother Tu, we really hit it off today. My little girl fell asleep. I'll send her back first, and we'll meet again some other day."

"Okay Brother Ye, I have gained so much from discussing Dao with you. There is another way of luck. I have to go back and give it a try."

"Let's leave it alone, we will see you another day."

Then, Ye Tian hugged the little gray and tapped on the eaves, and swept towards the direction of Lingluo Mansion.

It was already late at night. If I walked through the main entrance, I was afraid that it would attract the attention of others. It would be much better if I entered through the eaves.

Ordinary alcohol would not stay in the blood for a cultivator, but I don't know what kind of alcohol Tu Gaoyi brought. Qing was fine, both of them were a little bit overwhelmed after drinking a pot.

Ye Tian thought in his heart that he could have a good rest when he went back, but before he jumped from the eaves into the courtyard, an arrow suddenly passed his chest and stuck on the tree next to him, the force was so strong It shook the leaves a little.

This made Ye Tian sober up a lot. He had experienced a sneak attack before, but that was when he was on Ziluo Island.

Unexpectedly, there are people in the capital city of Nanya who are ambushing secretly. Are they here to grab the sword, or because of other things, they will never chase here from Ziluo Island.

Fortunately, Ye Tian reacted quickly. Even after drinking a little wine, he could hear the sonic boom of the arrow passing through the air with his keen perception. This archer is very skilled in martial arts. It was already impossible to move sideways, so I had to look around and avoid it.

"Who is it?!" Ye Tian shouted.

In an instant, those men in black who were ambushing on the eaves rushed out in unison, blocking his way in four directions: front, back, left, and right.

Now there is still a little Huibai by his side, Ye Tian carries her behind his back, it is difficult to let go of his hands and feet to fight against these people.

These people actually have the cultivation base of the ground level, there are more than 20 people, Ye Tian's situation is really not good, twenty masters of the ground level are besieging, normal people are afraid that it will be difficult to fly up.

It's not that Ye Tian didn't dare to hit her, but he had a little gray by his side, afraid of accidentally hurting her.

The leader of the man in black looked down at Ye Tian in the air.

"My boy, we met again. Last time I failed to complete the task because of you. I was cut off a finger. Today I want your life to pay for it!"

This familiar voice was the man in black who was about to kidnap the Miao sisters. It seems that the two attacks belonged to the same group, but was he the target this time?

"You can fight with me, but I have a child here, you ask me to put her in a safe place and I will fight with you again."

"Hehe." The man smiled contemptuously.

"It's hard for anyone related to you to escape. This child will be buried with you. If you are lucky enough to survive, stay here for the brothers to have a good time." With dirty words in his mouth, he even stuck out his tongue and licked the sword .

Ye Tian's eyes gradually darkened with such disgusting behavior and such disgusting words.

"You four, set up restrictions around the surroundings, and the rest of you will kill together. Whoever cuts off his head first will be rewarded with a hundred thousand Jade Crystals!" The leader commanded the rest of his subordinates, and those subordinates heard that Ye Tian's head was worth ten yuan. When Wan Bijingshi, his eyes were red, and he rushed in the direction of Ye Tian.

Ye Tian looked at the figures rushing around, he couldn't dodge, the surrounding space was locked, there was nowhere to hide in the narrow space, so he had to fight recklessly.

"Kill!" Ye Tian was aroused by this dangerous situation, and summoned the Ziluoxing Sword to face the men in black.

"Wang Tiger Fist."

"Purple Thunder Palm."

"Thunderbolt Sword Art."

"The fire dragon soars to the sky."

"Ancient wood bondage."

A variety of physical skills and fairy arts beckoned to Ye Tian one by one. Ye Tian was not easy to dodge. After all, he had a little Huibai on his back.

Relying on one person alone is really useless. Although Ye Tian has high attainments in the immortal way, it is difficult for him to cope with being besieged by so many people.

With a small carelessness, a cut was made on his arm, and wisps of breath spread from the wound, trying to invade his body.

"Wan Jian returns to the sect!"

Ye Tian saw that there were a lot of people, so he used a ranged attack technique, but before the phantoms of the sword came out, they were interrupted by the restriction.

"You won't be able to run away this time. I specially brought isolation stones from the clan to prevent you from using fairy arts." The leader said, revealing a triangular-shaped stone in his hand.

Ye Tian could kill all of these people simply by relying on sword skills, but he has been harassed by some mages during the process of using the sword formula, which made him unable to hit the spirit to use a complete set of sword formulas, so he has been stuck in the Passive situation.

The leader watched Ye Tian being besieged with great interest, rubbing the isolation stone in his hand, as long as it takes longer, how could this Ye Tian resist the siege of a group of people, now this situation only needs to consume his physical strength.

Ye Tian tried his best to dodge those people's moves within a limited range, but the space is too small, there will always be some energy pouring out on his body, and Xiao Huibai is on his back, so he can't use Xiao Huibai as a shield.

It's also inconvenient for the lotus lamp old man to show up, after all, he's just a weapon spirit, and if he shows his traces in this kind of place, if his enemies find out and cause trouble to Ye Tian, ​​even with his strength, he won't avenge him, then Ye Tian's current strength is not enough.

"Prism defense!" Ye Tian used spiritual energy to form a crystal around his body to resist the attacks of these people.

He needs a little time to buffer. These people attacked him not long after they appeared, not to mention drinking some wine just now, which still affected his performance somewhat.

After closing his eyes for a moment, the spar shield almost cracked under the bombardment.

In such a critical moment, Ye Tian still decided to use the killer move he just learned.

"Raksha sword energy!"

Ye Tian held up the Ziluoxing sword, all the aura poured into the sword, and drew a line around his body with all his strength.

I saw a fiery red sword energy appearing from the void, raging with intense and hot flames in this small confined space, those who couldn't dodge all had a part of their body broken, and some were even waist-length Cut it off, and the two sides of the body fell down like this.

The Rakshasa sword energy was so powerful that most of the men in black who had besieged Ye Tian were killed or injured, and the rest were also affected and stopped attacking.

Ye Tian leaned on the sword in the void, his face was a little weak.

The Raksha sword energy was about to drain the aura in his body, but such power was not enough to bury the aura that had been sucked away.

"Haha, you do have some strength. It seems that you have reached the end of your strength." The leader is still intact, still taunting Ye Tian, ​​he didn't make a move just now, and stayed in the air to watch the battle.

Ye Tian was doing his best at this time, and that person saw him, knowing that Ye Tian was weak, so he slowly walked towards Ye Tian.
