I can strengthen

Chapter 169 Curiosity

After drinking and eating, Luo Yan walked towards his small courtyard.

As soon as I came to the gate of the courtyard, I saw a young man standing in front of the gate.

Seeing Luo Yan, the young man immediately went up to greet him, cupped his hands and said, "Senior is Luo Yan, right?"

"it's me?"

Luo Yan looked the young man up and down, and said casually, "Who are you?"

He saw that this young man was dressed in brocade and embellished with jade, with strong qi and blood, and his strength had been refined to the bone. Most of them came from a famous family.

"Next week." Zhou Tong said with a smile.

His voice was respectful, but he couldn't hide his arrogance.

Luo Yan's expression suddenly dawned.

He has heard the name Zhou Tong before, he is the eldest son of Baotai Prince's Mansion, Zhou Yuyao's elder brother.

This week, Zhou Tong is the son of the royal family, but at this moment he is so respectful in front of the courtyard gate, and he is still called senior.

Mostly, it is because I heard that he has become a grand master.

He remained calm and said calmly: "So it's the prince? What is the prince's business with me?"

"That's right. Now that senior has become a grand master, it would be too overkill to stay in this pharmacy. Therefore, my father sent me to pick you up to live in the palace."

Zhou Tong weighed his words, with a respectful expression, but neither humble nor overbearing: "The Wangfu has vacated the Yunlan Pavilion, and we are waiting for you to move in."

He looked confident, but he didn't believe that Luo Yan would refuse.

Yunlan Pavilion is a pavilion in Baotai Palace, occupying one-tenth of the entire palace.

The construction of Yunlan Pavilion alone cost more than one million taels of silver.

Its level of luxury is even higher than that of the imperial palace, and there are countless young and beautiful singers and dancers inside, which are talked about by the people of Fucheng and called it a paradise for men.

In his mind, no man could refuse this Yunlan Pavilion.

Naturally, Luo Yan had heard of this Yunlan Pavilion.

He did not expect that King Baotai planned to give this pavilion to himself... just because he is a master?
But on second thought, the Blood God Army is about to enter the city.

In a few days, will the things in Baotai Palace still belong to Baotai Palace?

Thinking in this way, he somewhat understood Zhou Tong's intention in his heart.

He looked at Zhou Tong who was waiting for his answer, shook his head and said: "After a while, I will leave Fucheng and go to the capital. I appreciate the kindness of the prince, and the stay will be exempted."

When Zhongshenlou sends someone, he must go to the capital with Gu Lin and others, waiting for the opportunity to join the Taiqing Sect.

"This……"

Zhou Tong looked embarrassed.

It was his father who heard about Luo Yan becoming a master from Gu Xuan.

A master who has just broken through is naturally not worth the Yunlan Pavilion presented by his Zhou family.

But now, the Blood God Army is about to enter the city.

And his father didn't want to give up the foundation of Baiyue Mansion.

Therefore, we can only negotiate with the Blood God Army.

His move was to tie Luo Yan to his chariot.

After all, Luo Yan is a grand master, who can increase his own strength, and the stronger his own strength, the higher the probability of successful negotiation.

It's just that he didn't expect that Luo Yan would refuse directly.

He smiled far-fetchedly and said: "Since senior wants to leave, then forget it, but the palace is hosting a banquet tonight to cleanse senior, senior must come."

"My father has always been thinking about you, and wants to see you, the young genius."

Luo Yan directly shook his head and refused: "The banquet will be exempted. The prince and I have never met each other, so we should not be treated like this."

The smile on Zhou Tong's face stagnated, and he was a little annoyed.

His dignified son personally invited him.

It's enough to give this person face.

I don't want to think that this person who has just become a master is so arrogant, but rejects him twice and three times, it is too disrespectful to Baotai Palace.

He was unhappy in his heart, but on the surface, he still smiled: "Senior, after all, you are the alchemist of my Baotai Pharmacy. My father always wants to meet a hero like you in the Pharmacy. Otherwise, wouldn't outsiders Do you want to say that my Baotai Palace doesn't know how to cherish talents?"

Luo Yan frowned slightly, thought for a while, and said: "Well, you go back and tell King Baotai that I will definitely be on time for the banquet tonight."

"In that case, the junior will send someone to pick up the senior later." Zhou Tong smiled.

He could see that Luo Yan was unhappy.

It doesn't matter if you are unhappy, as long as you are willing to go to the banquet.

After the banquet, seeing the strength of his Baotai Palace, the slight unhappiness will definitely disappear.

After all, with the fall of Qu Jiuyou, now his Baotai Palace is the sky of Baiyue Mansion, and no one in this prefecture dares to oppose his Baotai Palace.

Thinking like this, he bowed his hands to Luo Yan, then turned and left.

Luo Yan narrowed his eyes.

In this world, there is always trouble.

Sometimes, blindly avoiding will only lead to more and more troubles.

It's better to show your strength directly, so that troubles don't dare to find themselves again.

He tilted his head, turned and walked into the courtyard.

……

Night falls.

Baotai Palace.

In a certain hall.

A group of warriors were sitting on both sides of the hall, drinking wine and enjoying dancing.

In the center of the hall.

A group of dancing girls are swaying, making it difficult to look away.

And at the top, King Baotai sat there, quite calm and prestige.

On the left, right and lower heads, there are a group of warriors sitting, all of whom are the backbone of the palace.

The worst is the master in the middle and late stages of bone refining, and there are even several masters among them, with amazing momentum.

"My lord, you asked me to come here tonight just because of that kid named Luo Yan? Is that kid worth your trouble?"

At this time, a martial artist spoke.

That is an old-fashioned master, one of the staff of the palace, and he can be called the right-hand man of King Baotai.

"I have investigated that kid, but at the age of 20, he has become a master of Houtianjing. This kind of talent is really amazing." King Baotai took a breath and said pointedly.

"A 20-year-old acquired master?"

All the warriors in the hall were shocked, whispering to each other.

Generally speaking.

If a warrior can become a master before the age of 30, he can be said to be amazingly talented and the pride of the family.

And the 20-year-old master, except for the one from the Martial God Sect a hundred years ago, they have never heard of it?

"My lord, is that person really only 20 years old?" Someone couldn't believe it and asked again.

"Seriously. And that person has never been famous for eighteen generations, let alone a fairy." King Baotai narrowed his eyes slightly.

"In that case, isn't that person recovering blood?" All the warriors present were a little stunned.

"I don't know about that." King Baotai laughed.

"A 20-year-old master is not ordinary. Does the prince know what kind of exercises he is practicing? Have you had any adventures?" Everyone became interested and immediately asked curiously.

There has never been a fairy in the last eighteen generations, and the possibility of blood recovery is very slim, so it can only be a skill and an adventure.

King Baotai smiled and said: "When he comes, why don't you ask him yourself?"

"I'm afraid he won't say it." A warrior said coldly.

"It's okay, I'll wait until I understand it with reason and move it with emotion, and he should let it go."

An old man laughed, looked around, and said loudly: "After all, this is a good thing for the benefit of everyone."

"Haha, what Brother Niu said is true."

"Senior Niu's words are reasonable."

All the warriors agreed with each other, all with smiles on their faces.

It would be a good thing for them to come if they could press Na Luo Yan's secret.

At this moment.

A servant's voice came from outside the hall.

"Master Luo Yanluo is here!"

When the voice came, the hall was immediately quiet, and all warriors looked at the entrance of the hall.

I saw a young man in Tsing Yi walking in slowly, handsome and handsome, with a dignified appearance.

His eyes were like stars, and he swept across the crowd lightly.

Everyone was swept by his eyes, and they felt their breath stagnate, and there was a feeling of trembling in their hearts, and they couldn't help but change their colors slightly.

This Luo Yan was actually much stronger than they imagined.

Luo Yan looked indifferent, walked into the main hall, cupped his hands towards King Baotai, and said calmly: "Luo Yan has seen the prince."

"Haha."

King Baotai laughed and stood up, saying: "Luo Yan, come and sit here."

He pointed to the first position at the bottom of his left hand, with a very friendly smile on his face.

"Thank you, my lord."

Luo Yan said, "The dancers of the Yue Kingdom walked towards the seat known to King Baotai.

The warriors on both sides looked at him carefully.

They originally thought that this Luo Yan, who had just become a master, must be of mediocre strength.

However, seeing Luo Yan in person made him feel terrible. The blood in his body was like a volcano about to erupt.

Sitting far away, they could even feel the faint pressure coming towards them.

Obviously, this son is extremely strong, definitely not an ordinary Houtian early master!

"I see that little brother Luo's blood is strong and his true energy is surging. The aura formed is not as good as this old man's. It doesn't look like a new master. Dare I ask, what kind of kung fu did little brother Luo practice?"

As soon as Luo Yan sat down, someone spoke.

It was a thin old man with gray hair, hooked nose, and phoenix eyes, sitting opposite Luo Yan, with a curious and innocent smile on his face.

"You are?" Luo Yan glanced at the old man and said casually.

The old man's eyes narrowed, his face remained unchanged, and he said loudly: "The old man's full name is Niu Youdao, he is valued by the prince, and he is the acting guard of Baiyue Mansion."

In the first picture, King Baotai looked calm, and Zhou Tong stood behind King Baotai, his eyes showing the color of watching the play with great interest.

And below, a group of warriors finally couldn't sit still.

"Luo Yan, you don't even know Brother Niu?"

"Senior Niu has been a master for more than [-] years. The title of Meteor Chasing the Moon and Niu Youdao has been heard in the entire Baiyue Mansion. You have never heard of it? Where did it come from?"

"You're young, so it's understandable that you haven't heard of Brother Niu's deeds before, but you must have heard of Brother Niu's deed of breaking the bloody god army's ten thousand town a year ago, right?"

"Or, Luo Yan, you have heard the name of Niu Grandmaster, and you deliberately teased Niu Grandmaster here?"

As the last words came out, the air in the entire hall seemed to become dignified.

"It turned out to be Niu Youdao, Senior Niu."

Luo Yan nodded, his face was stunned, and then he asked: "Senior Niu, want to know the exercises I practice?"

"You are able to achieve this at such a young age. The skills are certainly extraordinary. I hope that you can show them to fellow practitioners to observe, or let us make progress together." Niu Youdao said seriously.

"Yeah, take it out and have a look, why bother to treasure it?"

"Brother Luo Yan, if you are willing to share your practice with us, you are our great benefactor, and we will definitely be grateful."

"The road to Martial Dao becomes more and more difficult as you go up. Brother Luo, please help us, let us make progress together."

The rest of the warriors in the hall also echoed, looking at Luo Yan with fiery eyes.

Luo Yan narrowed his eyes, glanced at the warriors, and then turned his head to look up at King Baotai: "My lord also wants to see my skills?"

King Baotai showed a contemplative look on his face, paused for a few seconds, and said with a smile: "If you want, then this king will naturally have to watch. After all, my lord, I feed on alien species every day, and the speed at which my strength improves Not as fast as you."

Luo Yan nodded, indicating that he understood.

He spread his hands and said truthfully: "The skills I cultivated, the stage of exchanging blood, is sea-covering kungfu, and the stage of bone forging is ten thousand refining golden body. These two martial arts are actually very ordinary, maybe they haven't yet learned from everyone here. good."

"My realm can rise rapidly, it has nothing to do with the exercises, it depends on my own efforts, and... a lot of resources."

All the warriors were taken aback.

Lots of resources?

"Senior Luo, you come from Bao'an County, and you can't even be called a child from a poor family. Where do you get a lot of resources?" Zhou Tong stood next to King Baotai and asked with a frown.

"Luo Yan, are you trying to fool me?" Niu Youdao snorted coldly, and suddenly slapped the altar in front of him.

Luo Yan looked at Niu Youdao, and said calmly: "Why did senior Niu say that? You asked me, and I answered truthfully. Some said I was perfunctory, what exactly does senior want from me?"

"how?"

Niu Youdao sneered and reprimanded: "Then tell me, where do you get all your resources?"

"My resources come from Shengxian Pavilion. In Shengxian Pavilion, all the bone forging pills have been consumed by me alone." Luo Yan said without thinking.

As soon as this statement came out, the crowd was in an uproar.

There are a lot of resources in Shengxian Pavilion, if all the bone forging pills are used to supply Luo Yan alone, it is indeed possible for Luo Yan to complete the bone forging in a short time.

However, why did Shengxian Pavilion give you all the bone forging pills?

"Luo Yan, why did the immortal cultivator in Shengxian Pavilion give you the bone forging pill?" A martial artist asked curiously.

Luo Yan glanced at the man and said, "This is a secret, I have nothing to say."

"I think you can't think of an excuse?"

Niu Youdao looked cold, stood up directly, and asked: "Let's not mention the exchange of blood and bone forging. Let me ask you, after the bone forging, why can your strength improve so quickly?"

Luo Yan laughed back angrily, and said, "Senior Niu, is this going to break the casserole and ask the end?"

Martial arts skills are the foundation of every school and sect. Whenever someone learns it secretly, they will do everything possible to kill the person who steals it.

Now, these people are actually licking their faces and forcing him to share the exercises, all in the name of making progress together?
"Why?" Niu Youdao took a step forward, his face was cold: "Are you unwilling?"

His gaze was like a sharp sword, staring at Luo Yan with intimidating oppression.

Luo Yan looked at him.

The martial artists around were all nervous, looking at the two of them with blinking eyes.

They wanted to see if Luo Yan said it or not?

after a few seconds.

Luo Yan was the first to be defeated, lowered his eyes, spread his hands together and said, "Senior Niu really wants to know?"

"Say!"

Niu Youdao uttered a word coldly, and he didn't want to be a snake with Luo Yanxu anymore.

Swish!
As soon as he finished speaking, Luo Yan turned into an afterimage and instantly appeared in front of him.

His dead souls were shaking, and the hairs all over his body stood on end. While puffing up his true energy to protect his body, he quickly touched the hilt of the sword beside him.

However, just as his palm touched the hilt, there was a muffled sound above his head.

His body trembled suddenly, even the ground shook, and mottled blood flowed out of his seven orifices instantly.

As soon as the blood flowed out, it dried up quickly.

Even Niu Youdao turned into a mummy in an instant, with a hint of fear and astonishment on his face.

Niu Youdao is dead.

A red light appeared on Luo Yan's face, and he casually threw away the mummy in his hand.

Immediately, his eyes shifted slightly, and he looked up at King Baotai: "The old guy wants to know, so I'll let him have a look."

"My lord, do you want to know too?"
