Chapter 303 The Han Sisters

Yao Chen listened to Xiao Ling's introduction while flipping through the map in his hand. He nodded slightly and said, "You are right. If you only practice the Burning Technique, it is okay to devour this Netherworld Poison Fire. However, since you are an alchemist, before your cultivation reaches a certain level, absorbing this Netherworld Poison Fire may change the nature of your flame and may have an adverse effect on alchemy. This flame is indeed suitable for Xian'er. If she absorbs it, it will surely be of great benefit."

"As for the Netherworld Poison Dragon Scorpion, it is indeed a higher-level magic beast than the Sky Poison Scorpion Dragon Beast. Using the magic core of this magic beast to condense the poison pill for Xian'er will definitely have a better effect. Although I can't see the age of the map, the strength of the Netherworld Poison Dragon Scorpion must have increased. Coupled with its racial talent, this guy is not so easy to deal with. If you plan to deal with it, you must be fully prepared."

Yao Chen's words revealed a hint of seriousness. Obviously, he could see that this mission would not be easy.

Yao Chen's reminder made Xiao Ling realize that this map of the Netherworld Poison Fire has been around for some time, and no one knows how much the Netherworld Poison Dragon Scorpion has grown during this period. After all, relying on the Netherworld Poison Fire to continuously absorb poison gas, even if the speed of magic beasts' cultivation is usually not as fast as that of humans, it must have accumulated considerable strength over the years.

However, Xiao Ling's eyes quickly became firm. He reached out and held Xiao Yixian's weak hand, and said solemnly: "Since we already know this information, there is no reason to miss this opportunity. This will be of great benefit to Xian'er's condensation of poison pills, so I will naturally not let it go easily. No matter how many difficulties and obstacles there are ahead, I will strive for it."

Xiao Yixian felt the warmth of Xiao Ling's palm, and looking at his firm eyes, her heart softened. As a woman, having such a solid support around her also made her feel extremely at ease and warm.

Yao Chen looked at the intimate interaction between Xiao Ling and Xiao Yixian, and couldn't help feeling a little funny, with a slight twitch at the corner of his mouth. Back then, he was also a romantic man who never got caught up in love affairs. He had won over countless women in Zhongzhou. He had indeed been through thousands of flowers without getting a single leaf touched. Now, he was watching his two juniors showing off their affection here, and he couldn't help but feel mixed emotions.

However, Yao Chen was an older man after all, so he didn't care too much about it.

He coughed twice, adjusted his mood, and then regained his composure, saying, "Since you have such determination, I will certainly support you. If you really encounter any difficult problems, I will do my best to help."

Yao Tianhuo also nodded on the side, agreeing, "If there is a place where I need to help, just tell me, and I will do my best."

After Yao Chen finished looking through the map, he handed it back to Xiao Ling and added, "This place called Poison Mist Valley, I have heard a little about it when I was in Zhongzhou, but as a pharmacist, I am not very interested in such places, so I didn't know much about it. Specific I don't know the location, you have to ask for it yourself. "

Xiao Ling nodded and responded: "Old Yao, I understand. I have a senior sister, her family is in the northern region of Zhongzhou, not far from Xingyao City. We can stay with her first, and find out the news about the Poison Mist Valley, so as to make some preparations for dealing with the Nether Poison Dragon Scorpion. "

After hearing this, Yao Chen smiled slightly and agreed: "This is also good. Having someone familiar with the local situation to help will save a lot of trouble. "

When Xiao Yixian heard Xiao Ling mention "senior sister", she immediately guessed who he was referring to, that is, the senior sister Han Yue who had had physical contact with Xiao Ling. She couldn't help but cast a slightly resentful roll of the eyes at Xiao Ling.

Zi Yan seemed very excited. She asked curiously, "Are we going to Han Yue's place? I haven't seen her for a long time."

Xiao Ling gently rubbed Zi Yan's hair and confirmed with a smile, "Yes, we are going to Tianbei City where Han Yue's family is. It has been many years since we last met. We have to get together this time."

There was a hint of expectation in his words, and he was obviously excited about the upcoming reunion.

Although Xiao Yixian was a little dissatisfied, she was also attracted by the journey that was about to begin, and the little emotion in her heart soon disappeared.

After enjoying a sumptuous meal, Xiao Ling took the three girls to stroll leisurely in Xingyao City. Xiao Yixian and Zi Yan both seemed particularly excited.

Especially Zi Yan, her lively and active personality has been suppressed in the space wormhole for so long that she can no longer hold back. If someone now proposes to cross the space wormhole again, she will definitely be the first to object.

The prosperity of Xingyao City is indeed impressive. Although it is not the most prosperous city in the center of Zhongzhou, even so, its prosperity has far surpassed that of Tianya City, a well-developed city in the northwest continent.

Moreover, the overall strength of the cultivators in Xingyao City is indeed much higher than that in the northwest continent. Here, almost everyone is at least at the level of a great Doushi. A few years ago, such strength was enough to compete with the patriarch of one of the eight ancient clans.

And the Douhuang and Douwang level strongmen, which are rarely seen in the Jiama Empire, are not everywhere here, but occasionally one or two can be seen on the street.

Today is not a special day. Although there are auctions in the auction house, after some inquiries, they learned that there will not be too precious treasures. Today's finale is just a low-level earth-level fighting skill.

Despite this, Xiao Ling and his party still participated in the auction with curiosity. During the whole process, Zi Yan seemed particularly excited. She happily participated in the bidding. Even if the prices of some items were raised by her much higher than their actual value, Xiao Ling did not stop her.

For Xiao Ling, money no longer means much. As long as Zi Yan is happy, it doesn't matter how much money she spends. Moreover, those truly precious treasures are usually not exchanged through money, but through barter.

After the auction, Xiao Ling took the three girls to continue walking in Xingyao City to experience the customs and customs here that were completely different from those in the northwest continent.

As night falls, the moonlight shines on the streets, casting a mysterious veil over this bustling city. They booked several luxurious rooms at the inn and prepared to have a good night's rest here.

After saying good night to each other, everyone returned to their rooms, preparing to enjoy a peaceful and comfortable sleep this night in Star City.

As soon as the first ray of sunshine in the morning shone on the earth, Xiao Ling couldn't wait to take the three girls and set off on the journey to Tianbei City.

…

Tianbei City is located outside the northern desert of the Northern Territory of Zhongzhou. It is considered a corner of Zhongzhou. There are not many special outputs around the entire city, but there are no powerful magical beasts entrenched. It can be said to be a relatively safe area.

The scale of Tianbei City is not small. It is definitely a giant city in the Northwest Continent, but in Zhongzhou, it is just a small city.

The whole city gives people a majestic feeling, and the endless flow of people on the spacious streets reveals the huge popularity of this city.

The Han family is located in the south of Tianbei City, and opposite to it is the Hong family who occupies the north. These two families are like the two masters of the city. Both sides divide the city into two distinct halves. , each took charge and divided the interests of the city.

Of course, there are other small forces in Tianbei City, but compared with the Han Hong family, they are a bit insignificant. They can only survive in the cracks, as if floating, looking up at the two behemoths in this city. .

…

"Father, I see that you are not in a good mood these days. Are the Hong family looking for trouble again?" In the head of the Han Manor, Han Yue asked with concern while wiping her father Han Chi's face with a wet towel. . When Han Xue, who was standing aside, heard this, an indignant expression immediately appeared on her face.

"well!!!"

Han Chi sighed, with a hint of helplessness in his tone: "In Tianbei City, the Hong family is always stronger than our Han family. They have always been ambitious and want to monopolize Tianbei City. They are always picky about our Han family." Look at each other. In the past, everyone was about the same strength, so they didn’t dare to go too far.”

"But the situation has changed in the past few years. Ever since Hong Chen, the boy from the Hong family, broke through to the Dou Wang realm and joined Fenglei Beige, the Hong family has become even more arrogant. A few days ago, they openly intercepted our attack outside the city. Caravan, if Han Lin hadn't brought people there in time..."

Han Yue's brows wrinkled slightly, but her voice was still calm and cold: "Fenglei Beige! Hong Chen has not yet reached the Douhuang realm, he is just an ordinary outer disciple. Fenglei Beige cannot take such a big risk for them. . How can the Hong family be so arrogant?"

She and Hong Chen are of the same age, but now Hong Chen is still in the Dou Wang stage, while she herself is already a strong player in the second Dou Huang star.

Han Yue thought that if she was willing, it would be easy to join a force that was not inferior to Fenglei Pavilion. If she really joined, the Hong family would definitely not dare to act as recklessly as now.

Among the Sifang Pavilions, Fenglei Pavilion has become very popular in recent years. It is divided into four sub-pavilions: East, West, South and North, which are located in the four corners of the northern region of Zhongzhou. The East Pavilion is the location of the main pavilion.

The master of the East Pavilion, also the helmsman of the Fenglei Pavilion, is one of the four great sages of the Sifang Pavilion, and is known as Lord Lei. As for Fenglei North Pavilion, it is located on Qifeng Mountain on the edge of the Northern Territory of Zhongzhou, about a thousand miles away from Tianbei City.

Although the Pavilion Master of the North Pavilion has not yet reached the realm of Dou Zun, he is still a famous high-level Dou Zong. With the strength of Fenglei Beige, it is indeed not something that the Han family can easily provoke.

There was a wry smile on Han Chi's face. He shook his head, but there was a firm cold light in his eyes: "The Hong family is probably used to being arrogant. They always thought that their strength could overwhelm us. Now they are even more impatient. Naidi wants to control the entire Tianbei City."

"But if they think that our Han family is easy to bully, then they are totally wrong. Our Han family doesn't like to cause trouble, but we will never let others take advantage of us. If the Hong family really dares to attack us, I will too I won’t stand by and watch.”

Han Yue, who was standing aside, couldn't help but feel a trace of worry on her face when she saw her father's resolute attitude. She does hold a powerful trump card in her hand, a Douzong-level puppet.

Despite this, she still remembered Xiao Ling's instructions and never showed this power in front of outsiders. She only occasionally used puppets to go to the nearby Warcraft Mountains to collect some resources needed for cultivation.

She knew in her heart that if it really came to a head-on conflict with the Hong family, she would not hesitate to use this last trump card.

At this moment, Han Yue's thoughts couldn't help but drift into the distance, and that familiar figure appeared in her mind.

I thought silently in my heart: "I don't know what level Xiao Ling has reached now. With his ability, it shouldn't be a problem to deal with these things. I really hope we can meet again soon..."

…

After a long journey, Xiao Ling and his companions finally arrived at Tianbei City. After asking around in the city, they soon found their destination and slowly stopped in front of a magnificent manor.

The manor covers a very large area. From the outside, one can feel the prominent status of its owner.

There were several guards standing on both sides of the manor's gate. They were all energetic and alert.

Xiao Ling felt it and found that these guards were at least Douling-level. Obviously, the security measures here were quite strict.

When the guards saw Xiao Ling and the other young people stop in front of the gate, they immediately became alert and looked at them with a sharp gaze.

One of them, who looked like the captain of the guards, came forward and said politely but with a bit of scrutiny: "Excuse me, what can I do for you?"

Xiao Ling stepped forward and walked towards the leader of the group of guards.

He smiled and said in a friendly tone: "Hello, I am Xiao Ling. I studied in the inner courtyard of Canaan College and had a friendship with Senior Sister Han Yue. I came here specially this time, hoping to visit her family."

During the conversation, Xiao Ling casually took out four bottles of pills from his ring and handed them to the guard leader. He knew that these people were all working for the Han family, so his attitude was a little friendlier.

The guard leader took the pills handed over by Xiao Ling, and his original vigilance was reduced a lot. He looked at Xiao Ling with a kinder look.

Despite this, he still looked at Xiao Ling and the other three people carefully to confirm their identities and intentions.

After looking at Xiao Ling and the others for a few times, the guard leader found that these visitors were all young people, and he trusted Xiao Ling's previous words a little more in his heart.

"Since you are an old acquaintance of the eldest lady, please wait in the reception room, I will inform you immediately." The guard leader nodded with a hint of smile in his tone.

Then, he turned around and gave a few instructions to a guard next to him, and sent him to guide Xiao Ling and the other four to the reception room. He left quickly, apparently to report the situation to the clan leader.

Led by the guards, Xiao Ling and his companions walked into an elegantly decorated reception room. The maids quickly brought tea, and Xiao Ling and his companions sat down on the sofa, sipping tea while waiting.

Soon, light footsteps were heard outside the reception room. The door of the reception room was pushed open, and the figures of two women appeared in everyone's sight.

The leading woman had a slim figure, fair skin, and a long silver hair tied into a ponytail, swaying gently in the wind. Her temperament was cold, like a fairy who did not eat fireworks from the world. She was Han Yue, Xiao Ling's senior sister who had not seen for two years.

Behind Han Yue was a young woman who looked quite similar to her. She was Han Yue's sister, Han Xue, the second lady of the Han family.

Her eyebrows are like distant mountains, her skin is like cream, she is tall, and she is wearing a purple dress with exquisite curves. There is a hint of indifference in her eyes, but at the same time there is a kind of cuteness that cannot be ignored.

The two of them stood together, forming a beautiful landscape. If they appeared in the outside world, they would definitely attract countless eyes.

As soon as Han Yue entered the living room, her eyes fell directly on Xiao Ling, and Xiao Ling did the same.

The eyes of the two met in the air, as if thousands of words were conveyed in this look. They did not speak immediately, but just communicated through eye contact, and each other's eyes showed deep thoughts and warm smiles.

Xiao Ling looked at Han Yue, she was still so cold and unworldly, time did not seem to leave any traces on her, but added a bit of mature charm.

And Xiao Ling in Han Yue's eyes was no longer the young boy at the beginning. His eyes were more determined, his appearance was more mature than before, and he exuded a reassuring power from the inside out.

"Senior Han Yue, long time no see." Just when the scene was a little cold, Xiao Ling's voice broke the silence, with a hint of imperceptible joy in his tone.

"Xiao Ling, you are finally here. We haven't seen each other for two years." Han Yue smiled and nodded. Her voice was soft, like a spring breeze blowing across the lake, making people feel comfortable and happy.

Then she turned her eyes to Xiao Yixian, Qinglin and Ziyan, and greeted them warmly: "Xiao Yixian, Qinglin, Ziyan, long time no see."

Hearing Han Yue's greetings, Xiao Yixian and others also smiled and responded one after another.

They established a deep friendship during their time in the inner courtyard of Canaan College. Now they are reunited again, and everyone's face is filled with joy and excitement.

While the few people were greeting each other, Han Xue behind Han Yue kept looking at Xiao Ling with curiosity, thinking to herself: "Is this the Xiao Ling that my sister often mentions? My sister always says that he is an amazing genius. I really want to know what kind of person he is that can make my sister praise him so much."

Han Xue was not unfamiliar with Xiao Ling's deeds, because Han Yue often mentioned him.

However, Han Yue did not tell anyone in detail about the deep relationship between her and Xiao Ling, so Han Xue only knew that they were very good friends.

Because of this, although she had never met Xiao Ling, Han Xue already had a stereotype in her heart and developed a strong interest in him.

But she may not have realized that curiosity about a man sometimes slowly evolves into a deeper emotion...
