"If I could refine and fuse all the martial arts that I learned in the family's Jingwu Square that day into the Lingluo Sword, I wouldn't be so embarrassing just now! Now I have only merged 60% of that part of the martial arts. It will take two days to fully integrate those lesser-known martial arts." Xia Yan didn't stay long at the Extreme Challenge venue.
After the challenge ended, Xia Yan got the rewarded gold coins, and after returning the 1,500 gold coins that he paid in advance to the venue, plus the gold coins won by betting, Xia Yan still has more than 1,000 gold coins on him.
After leaving the venue, in order to get rid of the tails that were following him, Xia Yan walked around the city quite a bit before taking off his mask and walking quickly towards Xia's house.
Those stalkers who wanted to know Xia Yan's true identity or where he was staying were a little dejected after being thrown away. Xia Yan's speed was so fast that they couldn't keep up.
At the Extreme Challenge venue, Lingluo has become a celebrity. In Yushui City, as long as anyone who likes or often goes to the extreme challenge venue to bet, everyone knows Lingluo. This newly rising challenger in the challenge venue gave everyone too many surprises.
Especially today's battle against Beast King Fusheng was even more thrilling and exciting. The martial arts that Lingluo displayed in the challenge also shocked the hearts of many people. That perfect sword skill is beyond the reach of everyone!
Xia's house!
Now the Xia family's children, after seeing Xia Yan, greeted Xia Yan enthusiastically, and when they saw Xia Yan from a distance, they would run over to make sure they were familiar. Even the elders kept smiling when they saw Xia Yan.
"Brother Xia Yan, brother Xia Yan!"
At this time, the person named Xia Yan from afar was a five or six-year-old child. Xia Yan recognized this child. His name was Xia Yu. He had big black eyes and was very smart.
Xia Yan saw the rain running towards him, so he stopped and said with a smile: "Xia Yu, why aren't you with grandpa?!"
Xia Yu's grandfather is Xia Fu, one of the nine elders of the Xia family. Like Xia Changhe, he is not good at martial arts. He has a very good temper and is gentle and elegant. He is mainly in charge of the Xia family's accounts.
Xia Yu ran to Xia Yan's side, raised her head, with a cheerful smile on her face, and said immaturely: "Grandpa is busy, I ran out to play by myself. Brother Xia Yan, grandpa said that you will be the patriarch in the future. "
When Xia Yan heard Xia Yu's words, his heart skipped a beat, and he looked at Xia Yu's face seriously and said, "Xia Yu, don't talk nonsense, be careful that Grandpa will get angry!"
Such words cannot be said casually. Although Xia Yu is a child, she is the elder's grandson after all. The position of the patriarch of the family is something that many people miss.
Xia Yu tilted her head, pointed at herself, and said solemnly: "Brother Xia Yan, Xia Yu is not talking nonsense. When grandpa and father were talking at noon, they said that brother Xia Yan might become the patriarch in the future. Grandpa also said that father In the future, we must establish a good relationship with brother Xia Yan. Xia Yu was outside the door and secretly heard it!"
Xia Yu said it seriously, Xia Yan couldn't help frowning, it seems that Xia Yu overheard this, and now she actually told it to herself. Although Xia Yu was smart, but he was still young, so he didn't know what to say and what not to say.
After thinking about it, Xia Yan squatted down, took Xia Yu's little hand and said, "Xia Yu, you can't say this everywhere, you know? Otherwise, Grandpa will be angry with Xia Yu and get angry!"
Xia Yu blinked her bright eyes, and asked nervously, "Will Grandpa really be angry?!"
Xia Yu knew that although grandpa loved him, if he was really angry, it would be very scary. Xia Yu didn't want grandpa to be angry.
"Really, but as long as Xia Yu doesn't talk nonsense, then grandpa won't be angry." Xia Yan laughed!
Xia Yu nodded hurriedly, and said solemnly: "Xia Yu will definitely stop talking, brother Xia Yan, don't tell grandpa!"
Children's innocence, that's it!
After returning to her small courtyard, Xia Yan began to think about what she heard from Xia Yu. It seemed that the patriarch and several elders intended to train him as a future patriarch. This is not possible! Xia Yan didn't have any thoughts about being the patriarch of the family. Xia Yan's goal is to challenge the head of the temple in Yushui City and become the new head of the temple. The head of the temple is much more attractive than the patriarch of the family.
Moreover, if he is really regarded as a candidate for the future patriarch, he will definitely attract attention everywhere in the future, and doing things will not be as convenient as it is now.
Xiaoqing in the yard had just dried some clothes when she saw Xia Yan push the door into the yard, and rushed to meet him, there were still some crystal beads of sweat on her pretty little nose.
"Master, you're back?!" Xiaoqing said happily.
Xia Yan frowned because he was thinking about the problem, and answered casually absent-mindedly.
Xiaoqing noticed that Xia Yan didn't seem very happy, and hurriedly whispered nervously and cautiously: "Master, what's wrong with you? Are you angry?!"
Once Xia Yan came back to his senses, seeing Xiaoqing's nervous appearance, he couldn't help but smiled wryly and said, "Xiaoqing, do you think I'm scary? I was thinking about something just now, and it's none of your business. Also, Don't call me Young Master anymore, just call me Xia Yan."
Seeing a smile on Xia Yan's face, Xiaoqing was relieved, but when she heard Xia Yan not to call him young master, she immediately said with trepidation: "Young master, Xiaoqing dare not. Xiaoqing is just a maid, how can she call him young master?" What about the young master's name? If the patriarch finds out, Xiaoqing will not be able to stay in the Xia family any longer."
Xiaoqing knew that Xia Yan was not angry with her, and she spoke much more fluently. She is also a smart woman.
Xia Yan frowned, and said: "Then when you are alone together from now on, you can call me Brother Xia Yan! By the way, Xiaoqing, when you are free, go out for a walk, don't just stay in this small yard .”
Xia Yan looked around and guessed that Xiaoqing would never leave the small courtyard unless necessary, so he said so. In fact, although Xiaoqing is only a maid, in Xia Yan's heart, Xiaoqing has never been regarded as inferior. In the past, wasn't his status even inferior to that of a servant
Xiaoqing opened her mouth, fiddled with her light green skirt, lowered her head and said, "Shao... Xia Yan... brother, then... I don't know what to do when I go out. I stay in the yard and look at these flowers. Son, it's good too."
Xia Yan smiled lightly and shook his head.
"It's up to you. Anyway, if you want to go out for a walk, you can go out for a walk. You can also go to the market outside and buy some items for girls." When it comes to shopping, Xia Yan suddenly remembered that Xiaoqing has a month There was only so little money, so I was definitely not willing to spend it recklessly, so I took it out of my pocket, hesitated for a while, if I gave too much, I am afraid that Xiaoqing would not dare to take it, his eyes turned, Xia Yan Take out a gold coin.
"Xiaoqing, you take it. When you have nothing to do, go to Fangshi to see the excitement. If you see something you like, buy it." Xia Yan handed the gold coin to Xiaoqing.
Seeing that Xia Yan actually handed him a gold coin, Xiaoqing's expression changed drastically and he took two steps back, hurriedly saying, "Brother Xia Yan, I can't ask for it. I already get a lot of wages every month!"
A gold coin is undoubtedly a lot of money for a maid. The sum of her wages for half a year is only one gold coin. As soon as Xia Yan made a move, he gave him a gold coin, no wonder she was frightened.
Seeing her like this, Xia Yan secretly thought that luckily he didn't directly take out a handful to give to her. Although I will lack a lot of gold coins to buy potions in the future, I still have a little bit of this. Since you are by my side, naturally you can't let Xiaoqing suffer.
