"Grandpa, Mr. Hua left an elixir, which he said... can make you live ten more years." Nie Tian handed the dark blue elixir to Nie Donghai.
"Ah!" Nie Qian suddenly became excited. She hurriedly turned around and tried to chase Hua Mu to thank her.
But Hua Mu had already disappeared.
"The elixir that can give me ten more years of life!" Nie Donghai was also in high spirits. He took the elixir from Nie Tian's hand and took a deep breath of the rich medicinal fragrance. "If it is true, just this The value of one pill far exceeds the reward we paid him!"
"Why does Mr. Hua engage in loss-making business? Who is he?" Nie Qian asked in surprise and joy.
"He said..." Nie Tian hesitated and weaved a white lie, "He said he was destined to me."
"Are you destined?" Nie Donghai frowned slightly, "I think it's a little strange. You guys keep it here while I go to the city to find him. No matter what, I have to thank him in person. He loves us too much."
After saying that, Nie Donghai took the elixir and left first.
Unfortunately, he searched for two days in Black Cloud City and found no trace of Hua Mu. Hua Mu comes as quietly as it comes and disappears as quickly as it comes.
Nie Donghai, who was full of doubts, observed for a few days and found that Nie Tian no longer had a high fever. He believed that Hua Mu had no ill intentions.
He also believed that Hua Mu left the pill not to harm him.
So he took the strange pill that he couldn't name with confidence, and he felt that his energy and energy were indeed much better at that time.
After a period of time, whenever Nie Tian practiced the Qi Refining Technique, he clearly felt that the spiritual energy of heaven and earth incorporated into his body did not continue to overflow into his flesh and blood and limbs.
It was as if his strong body had absorbed enough strength and no longer needed additional growth nutrients.
Three months later, Nie Tian finally successfully broke through the state that he had been stuck in for a long time, advancing from the third level of Qi Refining to the fourth level.
At this time, Nie Tian was about to celebrate his eleventh birthday.
In order to avoid making things difficult for his grandfather, Nie Tian never went to the square to practice early in the morning in these days, nor did he cause any trouble.
Most of the time, he practiced hard in his room, and occasionally walked around Black Cloud City with his aunt Nie Qian.
This morning, while he was practicing early in the morning, he suddenly heard a huge noise coming from the square.
The noise became louder and louder, which made him unintentional to practice. Finally, he couldn't bear it and walked to the square.
As he approached, he saw many elders of the Nie family gathered in the square. Every elder of the Nie family had red faces, as happy and excited as if they were celebrating the New Year.
Wu Tao, who was responsible for teaching the children of the Nie family, also had a heartfelt smile on his face and kept repeating: "Nie Xian successfully broke through to the ninth level of Qi training!"
"Fourteen years old! Ninth level of Qi refining!" Nie Tian also became energetic and secretly happy for Nie Xian.
He was not familiar with Nie Xian, but when he fought with Nie Hong and Nie Yuan many times, Nie Xian always spoke fair, unlike other Nie family members who just blindly defended Nie Hong and Nie Yuan.
Because of this, although he and Nie Xian were not familiar with each other, he had a good impression of Nie Xian in private.
Now that he saw that Nie Xian had successfully entered the ninth level of Qi Refining at the age of fourteen, he was also sincerely happy for Nie Xian.
He knew very well that the entire Nie family, those who could enter the ninth level of Qi Refining at the age of fifteen and go to Lingyun Sect to practice, were all outstanding elites.
Nie Hong's two older brothers, Nie Han and Nie Tai, also showed extraordinary talents since childhood, and both achieved great results in the lottery competition.
But Nie Tai did not enter the ninth level of Qi refining when he was fifteen years old, and was therefore rejected by Lingyun Sect.
Only his eldest brother Nie Han successfully broke through to the ninth level at exactly fifteen o'clock and became a disciple of Lingyun Sect.
Rumor has it that Nie Han, who has been in Lingyun Sect for several years, seems to be doing well, and some people in Lingyun Sect are very optimistic about him.
Nie Beichuan was able to get the support of many clan elders in the Nie family and naturally take the position of head of the family. In addition to Nie Donghai's own injury and regression, Nie Han... also played a big factor.
"Okay! Very good!" Nie Beichuan stood in the crowd, looked at Nie Xian with admiration, and said loudly: "I said, since I sit in this position, I will do my best for the family, let Nie The family has regained its glory! Nie Xian's successful breakthrough and becoming a disciple of the Lingyun Sect is a sign of the prosperity of our Nie family!"
"Haha, it's all thanks to the family master!"
"As soon as my brother came to power, Nie Xian broke through to the ninth level of Qi Refining. This is obviously because you are prospering our Nie family!"
"The Nie family will definitely be better in your hands and overwhelm the Yun family and An family in the near future!"
“…”
Many members of the Nie family smiled and congratulated each other, as if Nie Xian's ability to step into the ninth level of Qi Refining was really due to Nie Beichuan.
As the protagonist, Nie Xian was naturally surrounded by everyone to congratulate him, but he looked calm and just politely thanked him, without appearing particularly excited.
"Nie Xian, although your branch is a branch of the Nie family, because of your ambition, from now on, your mother and sister will be moved into the Nie family mansion. You only need to practice peacefully in Lingyun Sect. , you don’t have to worry about other things, I will arrange them properly." Nie Beichuan said to win people over.
Nie Xian only had one mother and younger sister. Since they were from a collateral lineage and they were women and children, they were originally not eligible to live in the Nie family's mansion.
"Thank you, Master." Nie Xian said softly.
"You're welcome, you deserve this." Nie Beichuan said with a smile on his face, "I have informed the Lingyun Sect about your breakthrough to the ninth level of Qi Refining. In the afternoon, your eldest brother Nie Han will bring you People from Lingyun Sect are here to take you to Lingyun Sect. When you go to Lingyun Sect, you just need to follow Nie Han, he will arrange everything."
"I understand." Nie Xian nodded.
In a corner of the square, Nie Tian stood alone, looking at Nie Xian, who was holding the moon among the stars, and Nie Beichuan, who was full of ambition.
"Ninth level of Qi refining! One day, I will be taken to the mountain by Lingyun Sect!" Nie Tian secretly made up his mind.
"Why did you come out?" Nie Qian came quietly and said softly: "It has nothing to do with you. If you want to enter Lingyun Sect, you must work harder. You are almost eleven. Although you have made a breakthrough recently, you are still It’s just a fourth-level realm, and you can’t waste too much time on irrelevant things.”
"Auntie, I will come from behind." Nie Tian was full of confidence.
"It's good to have confidence." Nie Qian smiled, "You are upset. The Nie family will be very lively today. Those of us who are not welcome should not stay at home and disturb others. Let's go, and my aunt Take a walk around the city.”
"Okay." Nie Tian said obediently.
Afterwards, he followed Nie Qian out of Nie's house, first had lunch at a restaurant in Black Cloud City, and then accompanied Nie Qian in the afternoon to pick out a few pieces of jewelry at the largest jewelry store in the city.
"Hey, isn't this the eldest lady of the Nie family who was divorced by my Zhiguo family?"
Just as Nie Tian and Nie Qian were walking out of the jewelry store, a snarky female voice suddenly sounded inappropriately.
Nie Tian was keenly aware that his aunt Nie Qian's body suddenly started to tremble when she heard that voice.
He followed the sound and saw a man and a woman, with a boy about his age, walking slowly. Apparently they also planned to go to the jewelry store to buy accessories.
The man was dressed in white, his face was as warm as jade, and he looked quite handsome.
The woman's hair was tied up and she was wearing a tailored green skirt. She was as beautiful as a flower and looked graceful.
The boy held by this couple seems to have combined the advantages of both parents, and he was born with outstanding handsomeness at a young age.
When the man saw Nie Qian, he looked ashamed and pulled the woman away.
"What's the hurry?" The woman glared at him dissatisfied and said, "What's wrong? Is there still lingering feelings?"
"Don't talk nonsense." The man hurriedly defended.
"I'm sorry you don't dare!" The woman snorted, then turned her attention to Nie Qian, smiled, and said: "Miss Nie family, I heard that your father has even lost his position as head of the family. Why do you still have enough money to visit Lingbao Pavilion? Haha, what expensive jewelry did you pick, can you show it to my little sister?"
"Auntie, are they?" Nie Tian secretly said angrily.
He is not young now. Even though Nie Donghai and Nie Qian have never spoken to each other, he has heard a lot of rumors about his aunt Nie Qian from other tribesmen and knows the ins and outs of the matter.
Like the Nie family and the An family, the Yun family is also a big family in Black Cloud City. The relationship between the Yun family and the Nie family used to be pretty good.
Because of this, the two families got married for their common interests, and Nie Qian married Yun Zhiguo of the Yun family.
However, the good times did not last long. When Yun Zhiguo was traveling abroad, he met Yuan Qiuying.
Yuan Qiuying is the daughter of the head of the Yuan family in Cold Stone City. The Yuan family is the most powerful family in Cold Stone City, and is much stronger than the Nie family.
With Yuan Qiuying's active courtship and the Yun family's secret push, Yuan Qiuying finally became Yun Zhiguo's wife.
As for Yun Zhiguo's first wife, Nie Qian, the Yun family found an unfounded reason and ruthlessly divorced her.
This was a great shame and humiliation for the Nie family. Because of this, Nie Donghai broke into the Yun family in anger, but was severely injured by the strong men of the Yun family and the Yuan family, and he never recovered.
Both the Yun family and the Yuan family had the support of powerful Qi refiners. Even the Lingyun Sect was unwilling to go to war for the Nie family, so in the end they had no choice but to let it go.
Yuan Qiuying, who successfully squeezed Nie Qian away, was always worried about the past between Yun Zhiguo and her. Every time she met Nie Qian, she would ridicule her in every possible way and never say a kind word.
"Ignore them, let's go." Nie Qian grabbed Nie Tian's arm and pulled him away from Yuan Qiuying.
"I won't leave!" Nie Tian stayed on the spot like an iron spear.
