Fighting Against the Odds: I Am the Right Path

What Xiao Yan hopes most now is to improve his strength as soon as possible, and there is no doubt that if he learns the fire essence, his strength will be greatly improved.

It's just that the difficulty of acquisition is too terrifying, which makes Xiao Yan flinch.

"Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!"

The shrill screams from the back mountain interrupted Xiao Yan's contemplation, causing Xiao Yan to pause slightly. He looked at the back mountain with some concern, and then asked the little medical fairy.

"Speaking of which, little medical fairy, why don't you see senior Feng Xian?"

"Ah? Are you asking Senior Feng Xian?" The little medical fairy looked away from Feng Qing'er's portrait, looked at Xiao Yan and replied: "Yesterday, the Yun family sent an invitation letter to the auction, and Senior Feng Xian brought it with him Sister Qingluan went to participate."

"Yun family? Yunying?"

Xiao Yan was suddenly startled, and then he remembered that he had not seen Yunying since he came out of the Star Territory.

Then Xiao Yan glanced at the back mountain again, feeling that it wouldn't be over for a while. Xiao Yan had no way to improve his strength at the moment, and the Fire Origin No Form in his hand was obviously not something he could cultivate now.

(Wait a minute. If the Yun family invited senior Feng Xian, it should also invite many other forces like last time, right?)

There was a slight glow in Xiao Yan's eyes. There was something he had wanted to do for a long time, but the previous things had happened one after another, and he had never had a chance. His previous strength was not enough to mention this matter.

But now might be a good time.

Xiao Yan thought about it for a moment, finally decided, and looked at the little medical fairy.

"Little Medical Fairy, I want to go to Yun's house. Do you want to come with me?"

"Huh?" The little medical fairy paused in astonishment, and then looked a little strange, "What are you going to do?"

"It's okay to stay here for the time being. I have something I want to talk to Yunying about."

Xiao Yan said so normally that the little doctor's expression suddenly fell down.

To be honest, if it hadn't been for the invitation letter sent by the Yun family yesterday, the little medical fairy would have forgotten about Yunying.

Based on the current situation of the Little Medical Fairy, as long as the relationship develops smoothly and as long as it is not an accident, the Little Medical Fairy does not mind if multiple women can accompany Xiao Yan and serve as his shackles. The most important thing is that the Little Medical Fairy believes that Xiao Yan is not The kind of person who acts recklessly, otherwise he would not have clearly rejected Yunying before.

Yunying and Xiao Yan have known each other for a long time, and the two of them have been talking about things on the right path. They can be said to be quite suitable candidates. At present, Yunying has not shown any behavior that is unacceptable to the little medical fairy. In addition, before In the matter of Lord Bing, Yunying was severely injured for speaking up for Xiao Yan. Such a person would not be resented by the Little Medical Fairy.

In other words, there shouldn't be any ill feelings.

But why? From the first meeting, the little medical fairy had an inexplicable resistance to Yunying. It was not the obvious reason of love rival, but an inexplicable and more mysterious resistance.

Therefore, when Xiao Yan said that he wanted to talk to Yunying, the little medical fairy was actually reluctant. It was either because he was afraid of any emotional entanglement between the two or because he instinctively did not want Xiao Yan to come into contact with Yunying.

But Xiao Yixian also knew Xiao Yan's character. The fact that he suddenly opened his mouth to talk to Yunying about something must be about the righteous thing he had always wanted to practice. After all, this was the only topic Xiao Yan could talk about with Yunying. This was Xiao Yan's lifelong pursuit. Xiao Yixian did not want to stop Xiao Yan because of her discomfort.

Finally, after a series of psychological struggles, Xiao Yixiang nodded.

"Well, it just so happens that my recent training has come to an end. I'll go with you."

The next day, Xiao Yan and his party arrived at Baiyu City in the eastern region of Zhongzhou, where the Yun family is located.

This time, Xiao Yan and his party were Xiao Yan, Little Medical Fairy, Cao Ying, Gu Qinghan, and Hai Bodong, who said he was bored in Xingyun Pavilion and wanted to go out for a walk. They finally made a trip to Zhongzhou. If they had been staying there all this time, Xingyun Pavilion is like coming in vain.

As for Han Feng, she said she would stay and wait to see if Yao Shen needed help. Xiao Yan also handed over the dragon and phoenix origin fruit to her. After all, Xiao Yan didn't know how many days it would take to return. Now Taixu Gulong The matter has not yet been resolved, and it is time to race against time. If Zi Yan comes out of seclusion in advance, she can seamlessly absorb the Dragon Phoenix Origin Fruit.

Yao Tianhuo took Huo Benwuxiang back and said that she would help Xiao Yan study it. Although she couldn't use it herself, she still wanted to see this fighting skill that had been dusted for thousands of years be used again. Xiao Yan would undoubtedly is the best candidate.

To sum up, Xiao Yan and his party arrived at their destination after a day. Just like a few years ago, perhaps it was the auction period, White Feather City was bustling with activity, and it seemed to be even grander than a few years ago.

"Ho~ This is the big city in Zhongzhou? The Holy City of Bigama isn't that luxurious~"

Hai Bodong was gnawing on an apple and looking around, while the Little Medical Fairy and the others looked at his cute side face with some speechlessness.

There was no other reason, because there were many people on the street, and Hai Bodong was short. Standing on the ground, he could only see densely packed legs, so he jumped up and rode on Xiao Yan's neck, not treating himself as an outsider at all.

Xiao Yan didn't care about this. The teacher of the little medical fairy was his teacher, not to mention that Hai Bodong was personally invited to Zhongzhou. Xiao Yan naturally wanted to help solve some of his physical inconveniences.

But even so, Xiao Yan couldn't help but twitch his lips. If he didn't know everything about him, who would dare to believe that Hai Bodong was an old man who had lived for more than seventy years?

Moreover, there is something that Xiao Yan and the Little Medical Fairy are too embarrassed to mention. The way Hai Bodong is riding on Xiao Yan's neck looks like a father taking care of his son.

"Come on, come on! Take a look if you're passing by!"

"High-end medicinal materials are on sale at bargain prices!"

"A magical weapon, certified by Master Lu, no one can bully an old man!"

Listening to the noisy hawking sounds on both sides of the road, Xiao Yan couldn't help but recall the time when Cai Lin was regarded as a goddess by the vendors on this street. She also spent two million to buy a stone with no idea of ​​its use, and shot it like People as wealthy as Cai Lin should be quite rare.

Xiao Yan was not in a hurry to go to Yun's house. The group of people walked and walked in front of the street vendors. Although there was probably nothing good here, there were always exceptions to everything, and maybe they could find something good.

At this moment, a very small sound suddenly came into Xiao Yan's ears. It was like the feeling of wanting to shout loudly but not daring to shout loudly. If it weren't for Xiao Yan's extraordinary soul perception, he might not have noticed it. .

"Glacier Valley Fighting Skills Wholesale Sales"

Glacial valley?

Hearing this long-lost name, Xiao Yan suddenly stopped in his steps. He squeezed through the crowd under the doubtful eyes of the Little Medical Fairy and others, and came to a deserted stall. He looked at the man sitting there with a stooped waist and ragged clothes. old man.

Although the old man tried his best to hide it, Xiao Yan still saw the fear deep in his heart from his eyes. Xiao Yan couldn't help but feel confused, but he didn't ask any more questions. He held Haibodong on his neck and squatted down slightly to look at the old man in front of him.

"Hello, are you selling the Ice Valley Fighting Skills just now?"

Glacial valley?

Haibodong was slightly startled. He had listened to people from Xingyun Pavilion when he had nothing to do. It seemed that they had been destroyed a few years ago?

When the old man heard Xiao Yan's question, his shoulders shrank suddenly, as if he was frightened. Only when his old and cloudy eyes saw Xiao Yan's face clearly did he relax and nodded with some fear.

The true identity of this old man is an ordinary handyman in the Glacier Valley. Although he did not say it was a good job, he still found a job in Zhongzhou to make a living. He thought that he would be peaceful in this life. Die of old age.

Unexpectedly, that day, this tranquility was broken.

The old man will never forget it in his life. On that day, the Valley Master and the elders went out together, and the remaining Ice Valley disciples were practicing in the sect as usual.

Suddenly, the Great Elder Tian Shuangzi teleported back with a seriously injured woman covered in blood on his back. Tian Shuangzi also had obvious panic on his face. He suddenly threw the woman away and ordered with a sharp scream. The Glacier Valley disciples killed her.

Although the Ice River Valley disciples were confused, they still obeyed Tian Shuangzi's order and stepped forward to surround the seriously injured woman. The old man, who was a handyman, hid in the corner and watched quietly.

Then, the old man witnessed the birth of Hell with his own eyes.

The seriously injured woman looked like a ferocious monster. The long sword and sharp claws covered with blood scabs in her hands were swung wildly, drawing blood marks one after another, and tearing the Ice River Valley disciples who rushed up one after another into pieces. , the old man even saw the seriously injured woman bite the throats of several Glacier River Valley disciples with his own eyes.

The movements were so fast and the strength so fierce that it was impossible to tell that he was a seriously injured person.

However, a few breaths later, the originally blue Glacier River Valley was covered with blood and broken limbs, and corpses whose original appearance could not be seen were scattered on the ground. Those Glacier River Valley disciples who followed Tianshuangzi's orders finally felt fear. Started to stop moving forward.

However, it's too late.

The seriously injured woman took the initiative and rushed towards them. The old man watched with his own eyes as one of the Glacier Valley disciples who had no time to escape was torn open by the woman with swords, claws, and teeth, and their intestines, organs, blood and bone residues were torn apart. Just like the splashes of water surging one after another, and then silence, a word suddenly popped into the mind of the extremely frightened old man.

Mad dog.

That woman who didn't know where she came from was just a mad dog. She remained indifferent even to the begging for mercy of the Glacier River Valley disciples who had lost all their fighting spirit, and turned everyone, including Tian Shuangzi, into mutilated corpses.

After all the members of the Ice Valley were killed by the woman, the Ice Lord also came back, and was bitten by the woman's throat and died as the old man witnessed it.

The old man was hiding in the corner the whole time, covering his mouth tightly, trying his best to hide his movements, not daring to make any sound.

Perhaps it was because his strength was too weak, or perhaps it was because he did not attack her, the woman left the Glacier Valley. Almost two hours later, the old man crawled out from the corner tremblingly. Looking at the sea of ​​blood that had filled the Glacier Valley, with broken limbs, skulls and various human organs floating on it, the old man vomited crazily and his heart was greatly shocked.

After that, the old man knew deep down in his heart that he could no longer stay in the Glacier River Valley. Relying on his years of working as a handyman, he easily slipped into the Douji Pavilion in the Glacier River Valley, collected everything in one go, and fled from the Glacier River Valley.

He didn't want revenge, and he didn't have much affection for Glacier Valley. He just wanted to live a stable life in his old age. The reason why he took away these fighting skills was simply to sell them and earn some money for himself.

But maybe the fear that the woman gave him was too deep, which caused the old man to see the terrifying mountains of corpses and seas of blood whenever he closed his eyes in the past few years. The bunch of fighting skills in the Najie were like curses, and the old man didn’t know that person. The unknown woman had a grudge against Glacier Valley or something, and he was afraid that the woman would appear in front of him just after he showed off his fighting skills.

In the past few days, the old man really had no money. He happened to hear about the auction event in Baiyu City these days, so he rushed over. He did not dare to take the things to the auction house to sell, for fear of being caught by the woman, so he I huddled on the side of the road and wanted to try my luck, but I didn't dare to shout loudly to avoid being noticed by the woman who might be here.

Obviously, this kind of hawking is obviously not able to attract customers, not to mention that ice-type fighting skills are inherently less versatile, and not many people will buy them.

Just when the old man was about to despair, he met Xiao Yan, and hope was ignited in his heart.

Chapter 717 Nalan Yanran is next door

Xiao Yan looked at the taciturn old man, felt the fear in his eyes, and felt a little enlightened in his heart.

This old man must have suffered a lot of fright before, perhaps it was related to the fighting skills in this glacier valley.

After thinking for a moment, Xiao Yan asked softly.

"Old man, what do you want to change to the Ice Valley fighting skills? Pills? Pill recipes? Or other attributes of the fighting skills?"

After coming to Zhongzhou for so long, Xiao Yan was used to bartering for these high-level things, and he didn't even think about guessing at the top of the gold coins, because usually those who sell such things would not be short of money.

"No, no, no! Old man, I don't want those things." The old man waved his hands repeatedly with a very frightened expression, "I'm just an ordinary person who doesn't understand anything about cultivation. All I want is money."

These words made Xiao Yan have some doubts in his eyes. After careful inspection, he found that the flow of fighting spirit in the old man's body was indeed very small. According to his experience, the old man was only a fighter at the beginning, and the fighting spirit in his body may not have flowed for decades. After that, the meridians are almost useless, and the remaining fighting energy can probably be used as a Najie.

Why does such an old man have the fighting skills of Glacier Valley?

Although Xiao Yan felt strange, he still did not ask why the old man had the fighting skills of the Glacier River Valley. Instead, he asked with a smile.

"Old man, how much do you want?"

"One, one million?"

The old man raised a finger tremblingly. It could be seen at a glance that he was afraid that Xiao Yan would not accept this number, but it was obvious that the old man was overthinking.

But anything related to cultivation is not cheap. As long as the level of fighting skills is not too low, selling a volume of fighting skills for one million in Zhongzhou is really cheap.

Xiao Yan was stunned when he heard the old man's quotation, and even Hai Bodong, who was riding on his neck, stopped chewing an apple.

Hai Bodong's horizons were broadened during the years he stayed in the Black Corner Region. The fighting skills of a big power like Glacier River Valley could not be sold for three or four million in the Black Corner Region, right? Is the old man's offer too implicit?

After a while, Xiao Yan came back to his senses and smiled helplessly.

"Old man, you may not understand the market of fighting skills. This price"

"I, I can lower it further, as long as five hundred thousand!"

Before Xiao Yan finished speaking, the old man quickly lowered the price. Not only did he not know the value of the fighting skills themselves, but the more reason was that he only wanted to sell the fighting skills of the Ice River Valley for himself. It’s just about earning some living expenses in your life, it doesn’t necessarily have to be sold for a lot of money.

Now that he finally met someone like Xiao Yan who took the initiative to inquire, the old man certainly didn't want to let him go. He quickly sold his fighting skills so that he could leave here and hide in a small county with no corners to avoid running into that man again. The devil.

The old man's initiative to lower the price made Xiao Yan burst into laughter and raised his hands slightly.

"Old man, you have misunderstood. I am saying that your price is too low. If you really spend one million to buy the fighting skills in Glacier Valley, I am afraid that I will have uneasy conscience." Xiao Yan paused and then said: "Let's do this, old man, because I don't know the level of that fighting skill, but after all, it is the fighting skill of Glacier Valley, and it must not be much lower. I will give you three million to buy the fighting skill. What do you think? "

The old man was stunned when he heard Xiao Yan calling himself a junior to a useless old man. Then he heard that Xiao Yan, as a buyer of fighting skills, took the initiative to raise the price to three million. His old face was full of fear. believe.

While he was stunned, Xiao Yan had already handed him a Na Ring.

"Old man, there are exactly three million gold coins in this ring. You can count the number."

The old man came back to his senses and quickly shook his head when he saw Xiao Yan's sincere behavior.

“Not so much”

"Old man, please accept it, just so that I can have a good sleep."

Xiao Yan spoke to comfort him again, which made the old man couldn't help but shed tears and sniffed sharply.

Thinking about how he has been a handyman in Glacier Valley for so many years, which disciple of Glacier Valley treats him as a human being?

In the past few years since leaving the Glacier Valley, I have been helpless and without strong strength. In Zhongzhou, where the jungle thrives on the strong, almost everywhere I go I am disliked by people. Even the old man once thought that he might as well just die. never mind.

Xiao Yan was the only one who could show respect and kindness to him despite his obvious strength, which moved the old man deeply.

Not many people can handle being exposed to cold all the time and suddenly encountering warmth.

"This young hero, I am the old man"

The old man said nothing for a long time, then took out the very simple Na ring in his pocket and handed it to Xiao Yan.

"Young hero, this is the fighting skill of Glacier Valley. Take it, old man, I'm leaving first."

After saying that, the old man stood up tremblingly and prepared to turn around and leave. Although he was touched by Xiao Yan's sincere actions, the psychological shadow of the female devil still lingered in the old man's heart. Now that the items have been sold out, leave as soon as possible. That's it.

"and many more!"

Suddenly, Xiao Yan's voice came from behind, causing the old man to stagnate suddenly. He turned his head to look at Xiao Yan with a serious expression in fear, and asked timidly and tentatively.

"Young hero, it is indeed expensive. I will return the money to you right now."

"Old man, don't be afraid."

Seeing the old man trembling with fright at his words, Xiao Yan felt helpless. What had this old man encountered before?

Immediately, Xiao Yan looked serious, holding the simple Na ring in his hand and shaking it lightly at the old man.

It's not that there is nothing in Najie, on the contrary, there are too many things in it.

Xiao Yan originally thought it was just one volume of fighting skills, but he didn't expect it to be dozens of volumes! They range from the Yellow Stage to the Earth Stage. Is this probably going to empty out all the fighting skills in the Glacier River Valley?
