【Song Song Tingting is disappointed after hearing this, feeling dejected.】

【The fallen flowers have intention, but the flowing water has no emotion.】

【Li Li Qinlan on the side is secretly happy for some reason.】

【Just as you and Xie Yuan are about to say goodbye and leave, you suddenly hear the sound of jade pendants. Two maids in moon-flower skirts hold brocade boxes, blocking the steps like clouds.】

【The old woman at the head has silver hair tied into a high bun, a jade hairpin inserted in between, her temperament elegant and noble.】

【"Granny Yan!"】

【Su Su Shishi says in surprise, and the several courtesans all salute.】

【This is the old granny who has always been by the side of the proprietor of Qimo Qimo Chunfang, and can be said to be the manager of the entire Qimo Qimo Chunfang, the granny who has been in charge of Qimo Qimo Chunfang for nearly thirty years.】

【Although Su Su Shishi has an extraordinary status, she also respects her.】

【The old woman bows to you: "Young Master Guan, please stay."】

【"My master is ill and couldn't come in person, so she ordered me to prepare some thin gifts to apologize for today's disturbance."】

【You are slightly puzzled; who is the proprietor of Qimo Qimo Chunfang? Why would she be like this?】

【Xie Yuan was a true playboy before, hanging out in the West Wing Building, familiar with these rumors in the square.】

【He whispers: "It is said that behind this Qimo Qimo Chunfang, besides the Li family, the real person in charge is the current Emperor's own sister, that widowed Princess."】

【Just as you are pondering, the old woman smiles, the fine lines at the corners of her eyes spreading: "Young Master Guan, don't decline first; the things in this box might be exactly what you need right now."】

【The maid lifts her fair hands, and the brocade box opens at the sound. The black iron waist token on the left shines with a faint light in the twilight, with a red plum blossom blooming proudly in the snow, and the flower stamen is the Qimo Qimo Chunfang emblem dotted with cinnabar.】

【Xie Yuan's face is surprised: "This is the legendary Cold Plum Token? It is said that those who hold this token not only have all expenses waived, but Qimo Qimo Chunfang will also do its best to help."】

【Xie Xuan is even more incredulous; this Cold Plum Token has only been issued more than ten times, and those recorded by name are all people who can reach the sky in Above Bianjing.】

【How can this Xie Guan be worthy!】

【The old woman nods slightly, her smile carrying a bit of deep meaning: "The sixteen buildings of Qimo Chunfang are always welcome for the young master to visit."】

【Su Yun looks at the other brocade box, his eyes surprised.】

【Your gaze is tightly fixed on the Yue kiln celadon bottle on the right. The porcelain bottle has not yet been unsealed, but a wisp of clear medicinal fragrance penetrates the glaze, straight to your heart. You are shocked in your heart, just smelling the sudden acceleration of your body's true energy, this change makes you secretly surprised.】

【"This elixir is the Xuanyuan Snow Dew Pill, a thing for nourishing the Dantian in martial arts, which can help break through the three mysterious passes of 'Tiantu,' 'Shenque,' and 'Baihui,' helping martial artists break through to the Upper Three Realms."】

【"Tempered with jade marrow and Tianshan snow lotus, yin and yang are balanced, which can moisten the Dantian energy sea and repair hidden injuries in the meridians. The internal energy circulation speed is increased by three times, lasting for forty-nine days."】

【"This elixir is a rare treasure among martial artists, not only without any sequelae, but also priceless. These four elixirs are enough to support half a year of body tempering."】

【Su Su Shishi is a bit surprised; it is indeed this elixir, truly precious.】

【You hear this and your eyes light up, but you show a look of thought, looking again at this old woman called Granny Rong.】

【Her face has many wrinkles, and the outline of her brows and eyes can also see the graceful appearance of her youth, showing that time never defeats beauty.】

【Moreover, with the help of the "Five Dragon Prosperity Method" in the "Yin Fu Jing," you captured her aura as a cultivation of the Middle Three Realms of the Primordial Spirit.】

【This obvious intention of winning over is something you didn't expect, and she even knows your martial arts cultivation, which should be exposed by the fight with Pei Feng just now.】

【Your heart moves slightly, scanning the surroundings; it seems that someone has been staring here since you entered Qimo Qimo Chunfang.】

【Now that she calculates what you need, you are in the sixth realm of martial arts, Soft Realm, martial arts practice requires diligent training of the flesh, and although you have the Nine Swords to stimulate the skin and acupoints, it is far behind your Primordial Spirit cultivation.】

【Now time is tight!】

【These four Xuanyuan Snow Dew Pills came just in time, and you are not a pedantic person.】

【You accept the brocade box calmly: "Thank you for the heavy gift, I dare not decline."】

【Granny Rong hears this, the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes stretching out like autumn chrysanthemums blooming: "The gate of Qimo Qimo Chunfang is always waiting for the young master."】

【She bows and leaves.】

【You put the Plum Blossom Token and the elixir into your sleeves and leave side by side with Xie Yuan.】

【In the twilight, Su Su Shishi gazes at your back, her eyes full of brilliance—a talented person who is good at poetry and martial arts is rare, not to mention reaching the Middle Three Realms of martial arts at a young age? Such cultivation is only possessed by the outstanding descendants of the nine families of Above Bianjing.】

【And why would this proprietor give such precious gifts.】

【She only has "a few meetings" with this proprietor, rarely showing up, and she is also confused about her personality.】

【Her true identity is indeed the Princess of Great Qi, in charge of all affairs in Qimo Chunfang, and is a presence that is both awe-inspiring and unpredictable in the mouths of the sisters.】

【Maybe because of Minister Su, the entire Qimo Chunfang has always been respectful to Su Su Shishi and has never given any instructions.】

【With the vision of the Princess, is a mere family descendant who has just revealed his edge worthy of using the treasured Xuanyuan Snow Dew Pill?】

【The woman in the colorful dress stands to the side, her heart always calculating, why was Xie Guan recognized by the divine bird and then flew away just now?】

【Li Li Qinlan touches the skirt-pressing knife on her thigh; although this daughter of the nine great surnames has changed her view of you, she still stubbornly insists that the marriage contract must be called off; she can never be a vase in the family in her life.】

【Su Yun thinks of the turmoil in the Xie family today; I don't know why the Xie family seems to have the heart to eradicate this Xie Guan who is clearly a unicorn son.】

【Brothers are within the gate, let alone family flesh and blood.】

【It is dusk!】

【You and Xie Yuan board the carriage.】

【The carriage moves slowly on the bluestone slab, and the lights of Above Bianjing outside the curtain pass by like fireflies.】

【Xie Yuan is furious, staring: "Brother Guan, you hid it from me so hard! When did you cultivate this martial arts cultivation?"】

【"Sixth Brother, I never hid it from you."】

【Xie Yuan is stunned, "When did you tell me."】

【"You don't mean that the Second Master begged you to accept you as a disciple and also passed you the Nine Swords?"】

【"Brother Guan, you think I'm Sister Wu Tong, that silly girl; you believe whatever you say."】

【Xie Yuan suspects: "Then your martial arts cultivation was also passed by the Second Master?"】

【You shake your head: "Martial arts cultivation was taught by the Heavenly Master of the Sanzhen lineage."】

【Xie Yuan interrupts: "Forget it, forget it, I won't ask, okay? I also said that Lu Chen, the founder of Sanzhen, praised my bones as strange; do you believe it?"】

【You nod: "He really praised me."】

【"Brother Guan, why didn't I find your face thicker than the city wall of Above Bianjing before."】

【Young people have no obstacles in their hearts; anger comes fast and goes fast.】

【Xie Yuan laughs and jokes again: "I believe it, okay? You must teach me a few moves of the Second Master's Nine Swords in the future."】

【You think about it and agree to this matter.】

【The carriage rumbles through the long street of the West Wing, and you lift the blue satin curtain, looking at the flowing lights outside the window. The pure yang energy of the "Yin Fu Jing" in your body gradually converges, and the original Nine Swords intent that was wrapped quietly revives.】

【The carriage mark of the Xie family, wherever it passes, pedestrians avoid it, and the carriage is unobstructed.】

【About half an hour later, the stone lion in front of the vermilion gate and the plaque "Marquis of Dingyuan's Estate" come into view.】

【Lady Empress Zhuge has long sent servants to wait at the gate for Xie Yuan, and you are rarely envious.】

【Parents are always there to rely on, there are a few steps of retreat, and there is always warm porridge at home.】

【You are alone; after saying goodbye to Xie Yuan, you walk through the layers of courtyards alone.】

【The moon is bright and the stars are sparse in the sky.】

【Before you even walk into the courtyard, you hear noisy and noisy sounds inside the small courtyard.】

【"Creak——"】

【You push open the courtyard gate.】

【Only to see Sister Wu Tong and Luya, two little maids, blocking the doorway inside the room, Sister Wu Tong's small face wrinkled, holding a heavy black spirit tablet in her arms.】

【Xie Xie Renfeng, with the coachman who came before, and five or six guards are blocking the courtyard.】

【With the sound of the small courtyard gate being pushed open, everyone is startled.】

【Xie Xie Renfeng's original leisurely expression slowly turns back.】

【"Xie Guan?" He narrows his eyes, a flash of surprise on his face, "You actually came back alive?"】

【Sister Wu Tong's face finally relaxes: "Young Master, you are back."】

【You look at the mess in the courtyard, the spirit tablet of your mother in Sister Wu Tong's arms.】

【A burst of anger rises in your chest; the suppression of more than ten years, the first seven swords in the heart sea are slowly merging, and a silent Moke Moke Wuliang is gestating.】

【Your eyes are a bit blood-red, but fortunately, a group of quiet energy surges in your chest, and you return to your original calm.】

【You open your eyes again, hiding all the surging murderous intent.】

【"Seventh Cousin, what is the meaning of this?"】

【Sister Wu Tong and Luya have already walked behind you.】

【Sister Wu Tong grinds her teeth: "They are here to demolish the house."】

【Xie Xie Renfeng brushes his gold-woven sleeves, leisurely: "I told you last time, I asked the Old Matriarch for this room, and the Old Matriarch promised with her golden mouth."】

【"Today I thought it was impossible for you, Brother Guan, to come back alive, so I came to tidy up and clean up the clutter in advance."】

【He deliberately drags his tone, no longer hiding: "It's just that I didn't expect Brother Guan's life to be so hard."】

【You say indifferently: "It seems Seventh Cousin and that He Lan Zhenshu are quite close."】

【Xie Xie Renfeng strokes his sleeves, proudly: "Of course, my Xie family is magnificent, even the Crown Prince of the Eternal Sky has to give some face."】

【Sister Wu Tong has an undisguised worry in her eyes; she just heard Xie Xie Renfeng say that the young master died today, and she dared not believe it at all.】

【However, the young master's answer just now made her feel lingering fear in her heart; it seems these people have been calculating the young master's life long ago, how can they be so fierce.】

【If the young master left, how could she live alone in the world, and she couldn't help but tear up.】

【Luya hurriedly holds Sister Wu Tong's hand, comforting her softly.】

【"Since this is the case, then please leave, Third Cousin."】

【Xie Xie Renfeng laughs: "Since I'm here, how can I leave without tidying up."】

【A piece of moonlight shines in the courtyard.】

【Xie Xie Renfeng looks at the flowers and plants in the courtyard and the neatly arranged tables and chairs.】

【"Are these vulgar objects worthy of staying in the Xie family? Smash them clean!"】

【The five or six guards don't hesitate; Xie Guan is just a concubine's son, not counting for anything, and the guards pick up sticks and are about to do it.】

"Clang——"

The great cauldron rings, the entire cauldron body is shaking, the ancient Pan-Chi patterns on the cauldron body rise and fall like fish scales, and those obscure inscriptions now clearly appear, each character emitting a heart-palpitating pressure.

The four-eared great cauldron sprays ten thousand rays of light, filled with heavy, ancient, and vicissitudes of chaotic airflow.

The words on it freeze instantly.

1. Take action at this time. (Hint: May be beneficial to the future.)

2. Ignore it. (Hint: May be beneficial to the future.)

3. Take action in secret. (Hint: May have an impact on the future.)

4. Participate personally. (1/3)

5. Can deduce the future once. (1/2)

Yu Ke doesn't pay attention to these four options that appear, but the abnormality revealed by the cauldron.

This is the first time the "Kun-Kun Cauldron" has had such an abnormal vibration.

Could it be related to Xie Guan, who is "reincarnated as a heaven and man."

Yu Ke looks at the options above, excluding "participate personally," "deduce," and "take action in secret."

Only the first two options remain, and both hints are the same, beneficial to the future.

Yu Ke looks at the words above, thinking of Xie Guan's experiences in this life.

Without hesitation, choose directly.

1. Take action at this time. (Hint: May be beneficial to the future.)

【You slowly open your eyes, cold light appearing in your pupils, like a deep pool reflecting the moon, cold to the bone marrow.】

【Xie Xie Renfeng changes color suddenly, a bone-chilling coldness rushing up his spine. This pampered noble son experiences for the first time what true murderous intent of a martial artist is—just like suddenly discovering a dragon swimming in a swamp, his scalp tingling, a feeling of horror arising spontaneously.】

【In an instant!】

【A clear light like moonlight shines down, and the moonlight in the courtyard seems to freeze.】

【The guards stiffen, unable to move.】

【Xie Xie Renfeng's cultivation has also reached the fourth realm of martial arts, Spring Thunder, and he has a martial arts killing move.】

【It's just that he never liked martial arts, just to cope with his mother, Lady Zhao, and I don't know how many elixirs he spent to have such a realm.】

【Xie Xie Renfeng also has no experience in fighting with others, and the masters of the guards dare not hurt him.】

【His instinct is to run away, but he feels difficulty breathing, cold hands and feet, his whole body heavy as lead, unable to move an inch.】

【The "Ghost-Slaying Sword" in your mind shines brightly; this is a sword that slays the soul. You only urged one point, otherwise these guards who are only in the Lower Three Realms would not just be stiff in the field, but would die suddenly.】

【You step forward slowly, your whole body's blood boiling, the six fist moves of the "Taizu Holy Ape Stake" circulating between your muscles and bones, every inch of flesh and blood bursting with thunderous explosions.】

【The momentum rises step by step, the strength condensed on the edge of the palm, actually tearing out a harsh sound in the air, as if even space is shaken by this fierce and unparalleled power.】

【The blood surges like an angry tide, one wave higher than the other, until the peak—】

【Six styles combined · Holy Ape Throwing Tablet Hand!】

【Xie Xie Renfeng's pupils shrink, his eyes no longer having any playfulness, only the fear of imminent death. He wants to roar, wants to beg for mercy, but his throat is like being strangled by an invisible hand, unable to squeeze out even half a sound.】

【"This Xie Guan... how can he have martial arts?!"】

【The six fist moves merge into one instantly, turning into a terrifying fist print, slamming into his chest like a mountain.】

【The majestic blood flows like a broken levee, pouring into Xie Xie Renfeng's body, the sound of muscles and bones bursting like firecrackers, and his internal organs are all shattered.】

【He sprays blood from his seven orifices, his body flying horizontally like a broken cloth, slamming heavily against the courtyard wall, the bricks and stones collapsing!】

【The guards finally recover, their faces horrified, unable to help but open their mouths and shout.】

【"Kill... someone killed!"】
