Red Flame Mountains.
Three bare peaks are distributed in the shape of "pin". Among the three peaks, there is a huge valley, in which the sect of Lingbao Pavilion is located.
In the valley, there are many towering stone buildings, and the wide stone paths are crowded with people.
The three peaks surrounding Lingbao Pavilion have numerous stone caves on the stone walls. From time to time, people from Lingbao Pavilion come in and out of those caves.
Those caves are the caves of Lingbao Pavilion's weapon refiners.
The weapon refiners who entered the cave were all well-dressed and elegant.
But the weapon refiner who walked out of the cave was unkempt and his face was dirty.
Some of the weapon refiners who came out were holding spiritual weapons and laughing loudly, while others were dejected, looking like their parents had died.
At the entrance to the north of the valley is the entry and exit gate of Lingbao Pavilion. Nowadays, there are luxurious carriages coming from thousands of miles away.
An Shiyi from the An family is dressed in a fancy dress, with a smile on her pretty face. Whenever she sees someone coming, she will greet them and arrange accommodation for them.
Wearing a red dress and a red skirt, she has a silver ring on her wrist, and a heart-shaped pendant hanging on her snow-white neck. Her every move and gesture seems to be showing the best side of a woman, which arouses people's imagination.
However, although she always had a smile, there seemed to be deep sadness hidden in her eyes.
With her previous status in Lingbao Pavilion, it was absolutely impossible for Lingbao Pavilion to wrong her and ask her to do the reception.
However, because of the last trial in the Qinghuan Realm, as the person in charge of Lingbao Pavilion, she failed to detect the movements of the Ghost Sect and Blood Sect in time, allowing Yu Tong and Mo Xi to enter the Qinghuan Realm. The entire Huigu army was destroyed, causing heavy losses to the other three parties, causing her status in Lingbao Pavilion to plummet.
In order to give an explanation to the other three sects, An Shiyi was severely punished and reduced to the point of having to welcome guests in front of the sect.
She has enjoyed smooth sailing in Lingbao Pavilion over the years, and is highly valued by the Pavilion Master, with almost no setbacks.
Because of the pavilion master's respect, several old guys in Lingbao Pavilion who had evil intentions towards her also hid their thoughts and did not dare to act recklessly.
This time, due to the failure of the Qinghuan World, it was rumored that the pavilion master who had been protecting her seemed to doubt her ability to do things, and dismissed her as a deacon.
In Lingbao Pavilion, several old guys who coveted her beauty were immediately ready to make a move.
Recently, those people, covertly or covertly, have been sending people to test her tone and express their intention to become a partner.
After she refused several times in a row, she found that her situation in Lingbao Pavilion became increasingly difficult.
"This grand gathering must not go wrong again, otherwise... it will be even harder to get ahead in the future." An Shiyi said secretly.
"Whoosh! Whoosh!"
Three golden-horned beasts, pulling a huge chariot, slowly drove from the north.
In the chariot, Sang Bing from Huigu looked at An Shiyi coldly with a gloomy face.
Next to Sang Bing, Yuan Xian suddenly saw An Shiyi and shouted: "An Shiyi, you still have the nerve to receive us? If it weren't for you, my Feng'er wouldn't have died in the Qinghuan world! Yes! You didn't notice the movements of the Ghost Sect and the Blood Sect, and that's why you killed my Feng'er!"
Yuan Xian is the biological sister of Yuan Fengchun, the head of the Yuan family in Hanshi City.
Yuan Feng, who led the Ash Valley Trials into the Qing Fantasy Realm, is Yuan Fengchun's grandson. Yuan Xian, who has never been married, treats Yuan Feng as his grandson.
Yuan Feng can be regarded as a "seed" by Huigu, not only because of his extraordinary talent, but also because of her.
Although Yuan Fengchun of the Yuan family is considered a prominent figure among the major families in the Seven Cities, compared with his sister, Yuan Fengchun is not worth mentioning.
Yuan Xian has been extremely talented since she was a child. Now she is the fifth Valley Master of Gray Valley.
There are five valleys in the Gray Valley. Although she is the last valley owner, she is also the fifth person in the Gray Valley and has a distinguished status.
It is because of her existence that the Yuan family is so strong among the subordinate families in Gray Valley.
The Yuan family became the largest family in Hanshi City because of her.
Back then, the reason why the Yun family divorced Nie Qian and let Yun Zhiguo marry Yuan Qiuying was because of her special status in Gray Valley.
After all, the Yun family, like the Yuan family, is also a vassal family of Gray Valley.
"Senior Yuan, Yuan Feng's death... was done by the Ghost Sect and the Blood Sect. It has nothing to do with me, right? If you want revenge, you should go to the Ghost Sect and the Blood Sect. Why bother me?" An Shiyi looked bitter. , said with a forced smile.
"Of course I won't let go of the Ghost Sect and the Blood Sect!" Yuan Xian's eyes were as cold as ice, "But you are also involved! If it weren't for your negligence in not discovering the movements of the Ghost Sect and the Blood Sect, how could they Can they step into the Qing Fantasy World? They can't enter the Qing Fantasy World, how could anything happen to Feng'er?"
At this point, Yuan Xian paused, looked at An Shiyi gloomily, and suddenly said: "Girl An, if you want to establish yourself in Litianyu with your beauty, you should find a more powerful backer as soon as possible. I heard... you guys In the sect, there are a few old guys who are almost dead, and they have a good impression of you, so you should obey them as soon as possible."
"A woman like you has nothing to offer except beauty."
"If you become the concubine of those old guys, for their sake, I may not be able to do anything to you. But... if no one protects you, with your current status in Lingbao Pavilion, I have many ways to deal with you. !”
Yuan Xian revealed the ugly things inside Lingbao Pavilion without mercy in front of everyone.
After An Shiyi heard this, her expression changed obviously. She wanted to reply, but thinking about her current situation, she endured it.
She noticed that many of the disciples in Lingbao Pavilion around her were looking at her a little strangely.
She immediately realized that the troubles she had encountered recently had been spread quietly in the pavilion without her realizing it.
"Senior Yuan, please come in early." An Shiyi bowed slightly, signaling Sang Bing and Yuan Xian to enter.
"After all, your An family's foundation is too shallow. In Lingbao Pavilion, your An family does not have an elder. Instead, it relies on you and your sister to establish the An family in Black Cloud City." Yuan Xian was not in a hurry to go in. She was still sitting on the ground carriage, looking at An Shiyi condescendingly, and said indifferently: "Once you lose power in Lingbao Pavilion, your sister, you and the An family may be implicated. Girl An, think about it yourself. Your sister, please think more about settling down for you."
"Thank you, Senior Yuan, for your concern." An Shiyi frowned.
Yuan Xian's words came to this point, and she already knew it in her heart.
She knew that the person who coveted her beauty had a close friendship with Yuan Xian, and Yuan Xian's words were most likely for that person.
Yuan Xian meant that as long as she obeyed and obeyed that person, Yuan Xian would no longer care about her failure to fulfill her responsibilities in the fantasy world.
Otherwise, Yuan Xian will pursue it further and target her in other ways, or even target An Jia.
However, when she thought of that man's disgusting appearance, goosebumps appeared all over her body and she felt chills all over.
"Think about it carefully." Yuan Xian glanced at her coldly, waved her hand, and signaled Sang Bing to get out of the car and prepare to take people inside.
At this moment, a low cry suddenly came from deep in the clouds.
The people gathered in front of the Lingbao Pavilion subconsciously looked up after hearing the low hum.
Not long after, they saw a spiritual beast gradually emerge from the clouds.
"call!"
A strong wind blew by, and the spiritual beast in the cloud fell steadily.
The three-headed golden-horned beast of the Gray Valley that was dragging the chariot shivered and slowly crouched down after hearing the low roar.
"Thunder Beast!"
In front of the Lingbao Pavilion, many people changed their colors slightly when they saw the spiritual beast coming.
Even Yuan Xian and Sang Bing from Gray Valley suddenly fell silent as they watched the thunder beast slowly fall.
"Is this Lingbao Pavilion?"
A surprised voice suddenly came from the Thunder Beast. After everyone looked at it, they discovered that there was a strong young man sitting on the back of the Thunder Beast.
"Yes, it's him?" An Shiyi was surprised.
"Hey, Sister An!" Nie Tian looked around and immediately noticed An Shiyi. On the back of the Thunder Beast, he waved vigorously towards An Shiyi and said with a smile, "Long time no see!"
"Only half a year." An Shiyi said with a smile.
"He is the child of the Nie family." Over in Gray Valley, Sang Bing on the chariot introduced Yuan Xian calmly.
Yuan Xian took a deep look at Nie Tian, nodded lightly, and said nothing more.
"We can't afford to offend the disciples of the weird old wizard. From now on... should we ask the Yun family to restrain themselves?" Sang Bing asked again.
Yuan Xian was silent for a moment and said: "Although Qiu Ying is my niece, the girl she marries is like water thrown away. Naturally, I will not provoke the old wizard because of her."
"That's good." Sang Bing secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
"Let's go in." Yuan Xian said.
When Nie Tian jumped off the Thunder Beast and headed towards An Shiyi, the group of people from Gray Valley finally stopped staying and entered Lingbao Pavilion one by one.
Seeing them leave, An Shiyi's heavy heart relaxed a little.
She knew in her heart that if it hadn't been for Nie Tian's arrival, Yuan Xian would have continued to taunt her in front of the Lingbao Pavilion due to her mean temper, and would not have let her go so easily.
"This kid..."
Half a year later, she looked at the current Nie Tian with a complicated expression, and she felt as if he was in another world.
