Chapter 1168: In Yecheng, Danyu, There Is a Girl Named Xinlan

The dawn sun first appeared, and a purple rainbow streaked across the sky, flying straight towards a huge dark green city in the distance.

This is an ancient city located on a plain in the north of Danyu. The city is surrounded by lush forests, making the city wrapped in green. Roads leading to the sky spread out from the forest, and then extend to End of sight.

The ancient city full of green color and vitality is called Ye City, not because there are many green leaves in the city, but because the ruler of this city is the Ye family, who was once prominent in the Dan Domain.

The Ye family of the Dan Realm is one of the five major families that has a special status in the Dan Realm. It is said that the five major families once joined forces to create the original Dan Pagoda. Some people also say that the ancestors of the five major families are the five ancestors of a certain Dan Pagoda. disciple.

There are various rumors, but without exception, they all illustrate the deep connection between the five major families and Danta.

There was a time when the five major families dominated the Alchemy Pagoda Elders' Seat and became the most powerful giants in the Alchemy Domain.

However, time has passed, and the five major families have also undergone some changes. Some of them have lost their former glory. For example, the Ye family now has few seventh-grade alchemists in the family. The previous Dan Pagoda failed the assessment. It is said that even the elders of the Dan Pagoda failed. It’s almost impossible to keep it.

However, even if the Ye family has fallen into the mortal world, they are still the masters of Ye City. A lean camel is bigger than a horse. What's more, the Ye family still has several seventh-grade alchemists. They still have no influence in Ye City. Dare to challenge the authority of the Ye family.

The Ye Family Manor in Ye City is naturally located in the most central area of ​​the city. Normal people are not allowed to enter, and are patrolled by guards and are heavily guarded.

Of course, this so-called tight defense cannot stop the real strong ones.

In the meeting hall of the Ye family, a group of old men were gathering together to discuss matters. They were all elders of the Ye family, at least Dou Huang or fifth-grade alchemists.

Among the seats, there was a woman in a blue dress sitting at a seat near the front. Looking at the many elders who were arguing endlessly, she couldn't help showing a trace of disappointment in her eyes.

"Our Ye family failed the Danta test last time. It would be terrible if we fail again the second time."

"The Danta assessment has strict requirements. If you fail once, the requirements will be higher. If you fail the second time, you will only have one chance, and you must get in the top three to keep your seat, but this is basically impossible to achieve. "

"What's the use of talking about this now? The assessment looks at potential. Only young alchemists are eligible to participate, and at least a sixth-grade senior alchemist is required to pass. After failing once, the second assessment may be... Only seventh-grade alchemists can pass."

"There are only a few seventh-grade alchemists in the entire Ye family now, and they are all old guys like us."

"What's the use of talking about this now? The key is to come up with solutions."

"Is there any other way? I shouldn't have let that boy of yours try it last time. If it doesn't work, it won't work. It's not like we don't have a suitable candidate for the Ye family to find a young alchemist from outside."

"How can I ask outsiders to deal with my Ye family's affairs..."

"enough……"

In the Ye family meeting hall, a group of Ye family elders kept arguing. An old man in Tsing Yi's face gradually darkened, and finally he couldn't help shouting and shouting.

The old man's name is Ye Chong, and he is the eldest elder of the Ye family in Dan Realm and the current leader of the family.

Since two generations of the Ye family's head have had problems one after another, the Ye family has been taken over by the eldest elder Ye Zhong. It is under his hands that the Ye family has turned from prosperity to decline. The last time it was his wrong decision-making that led to the assessment He failed, so he is under a lot of pressure now.

"Great Elder!"

Many of the quarreling elders booed and bowed their heads. Similar arguments happened in almost every clan meeting, and there was no result at all.

Ye Chongyin said sternly: "All of you, please supervise the younger generations and let them practice and refine medicine for me. The Ye family can't go on like this. We must succeed in the next Danta assessment. ”

"yes!"

The sparse response did not make Ye Zhong's face look better, but instead made his whole face darker. But he didn't know what to say at this time, so he could only keep out of sight and let these elders Get lost.

"Xin Lan, please stay for a while."

Just when the girl in blue was about to leave, the great elder Ye Zhong stopped her.

"Great Elder, what's the matter?"

When everyone left and only the great elder and the girl in blue Ye Xinlan were left, the latter frowned and asked, but she couldn't help but sigh in her heart. She probably guessed what the great elder wanted to say to her.

"Xinlan, you also know the current situation of the family. If the second alchemy test fails, our Ye family... Alas, among the younger generations of the family, your talent is the best, but your age and cultivation progress , I’m afraid I won’t be able to catch up..."

"The family is considering looking for foreign aid. Young seventh-grade alchemists are almost impossible to find except within the Dan Pagoda."

"The Cao family in Dan City wrote a letter a few days ago saying that they want to send Cao Dan from their clan to come and learn and communicate with my Ye family..."

"Great Elder!"

Ye Xinlan quickly interrupted the elder Ye Zhong's words and said in a deep voice: "Although our Ye family has weakened, we are not at the end of our rope yet."

"The Cao family in Dan City has developed rapidly in recent years, and there is an implicit intention to unify the five major families and take over the Dan domain. My Ye family failed in the last assessment, and it seems that other families are causing trouble behind the scenes. Now they are obviously offering an olive branch to the Ye family, but In fact, you must guard against wolfish ambition!”

"This... Xinlan, you... think about it. If you don't want to, then forget it..."

Ye Chong didn't expect Ye Xinlan's reaction to be so violent. Now that the family was in trouble internally and externally, he didn't want to alienate the eldest lady of the family head's lineage anymore, so he shook his head and ended the topic with a bitter smile.

Ye Xinlan wanted to talk to the elder about her thoughts again. At this time, a maid ran over, saluted respectfully to the two of them, and whispered: "Miss! There is news from outside that the descendant of a friend of the family head , come with the token."

"The descendant of grandpa's friend?"

A trace of doubt flashed in Ye Xinlan's eyes. Her grandfather was the old head of the Ye family. He had many friends in the past, but now there are not many friends who are still in contact with the Ye family.

"Great Elder, I'm going down first."

Ye Xinlan nodded slightly to the great elder Ye Zhong and saluted, then turned around and followed the maid away. Looking at Ye Xinlan's leaving figure, Ye Zhong let out a long sigh and walked towards the meeting hall again.

"Miss!"

In front of the Ye family manor, a group of Ye family guards guarded the gate of the manor. When they saw a woman in a blue dress walking out of the manor, the guards at the door saluted.
