Shaking his head slightly, Xiao Ran followed the Nanming ancestor directly into a bamboo house in front of him. Entering inside, a faint fragrance of bamboo comes out, giving people a relaxed and happy feeling. Even Xiao Ran couldn't help but sigh at the good air in this place and such a quiet environment. It would indeed be a good thing to live in seclusion here. When Xiao Ran and the other three came to the house, they were no longer polite and sat down one after another. Almost at the same time, Nan Ming Patriarch turned their attention to Xiao Ran at the same time. Xiao Ran touched his nose and knew that he should also say something. After thinking about it, Xiao Ran slowly revealed his identity and some background. For the identity of Xiao Ran, the ancestor of Nanming knew something about it. When he heard Xiao Ran say that he was from a small family, there was nothing strange at all. However, Qiu Qianchi glanced at Xiao Ran curiously. Regarding his own cultivation level, Xiao Ran only brought it out lightly, but when they heard that Xiao Ran's cultivation level had reached the level of Sword Master, the figures of Nanming Patriarch and Qiu Qianchi visibly trembled. Xiao Ran His talent is so incredible that it makes people jealous. Who can become a sword master before they are twenty years old? Even Sword Emperors are in the minority, right? But what about Xiao Ran? This young man who looks a bit handsome and has no other abnormality has such amazing cultivation, which is beyond the imagination of some people. These are nothing, but when he heard that Xiao Ran single-handedly destroyed the top five families on the entire road, he couldn't calm down anymore. Then Xiao Ran talked about Jian Zong again, and this time, the two of them were not so obviously shocked. Perhaps in their view, it was not surprising that someone as powerful as Xiao Ran would create a force, but they did not expect that Xiao Ran would even talk about the Sword Sect he founded. When Xiao Ran said this, there was no other expression in the eyes of the two of them. In their eyes, these were just floating clouds that could be extinguished with a wave of hands. But when Xiao Ran said about Jiange, the two of them were obviously stunned for a moment. They couldn¡¯t figure out what Xiao Ran¡¯s purpose was in founding the Sword Sect. ??????????????????????????????????????????????Out of all the sects on this continent, who gets another sword, doesn¡¯t he cherish it? But Xiao Ran, on the contrary, still brought it, which was really hard for them to accept. This is still secondary. The main thing is where did Xiao Ran get so many swordsmanship secrets? But when they heard Xiao Ran say that he had swordsmanship ranging from level one to level nine, both of them were obviously stunned. But he quickly reacted, with a fiery expression in his eyes. When Xiao Ran said these words, his mental power suddenly increased, and he completely controlled the expressions of the two people in his mind. Seeing that the two people only had expressions of shock rather than greed on their faces, Xiao Ran finally breathed a sigh of relief. If the two of them had shown the slightest greed just now, they would have turned around and left without hesitation. But now, fortunately, neither of them are that kind of person, and Xiao Ran is more satisfied with his vision of people. After some discussion, the three of them finally agreed under Xiao Ran's temptation that they could help Xiao Ran go to Xiao's house to take charge, but the prerequisite was that they could go to the ninth floor. " Of course, Xiao Ran readily agreed to this. Let alone the ninth floor, Xiao Ran would agree even if you wanted to go to the tenth floor. Of course, there must be a tenth floor. The few people quickly reached an agreement, and Xiao Ran finally decided that a few people would go to the Xiao family together. When the time came, they would directly sit in the sword pavilion to protect Xiao Ran. As long as they protect the Xiao family for one day, they can stay in the sword pavilion for one day. Would the two of them mind about this? " Moreover, the ancestor of Nanming is a master of swordsmanship, and he is even more itchy about swordsmanship. How about seeing more advanced swordsmanship? But Qiu Qianchi himself is a master of swordsmanship. There is no other training method in Wolong Continent that he can learn from. If he can enter a higher level, Qiu Qianchi believes that he can definitely break through faster. As soon as the three of them finished their discussion, they saw the young man outside walking in. After the young man came in and took a look at Xiao Ran and others, he entered the room directly and walked out after a while. The difference was that this time his He carried a small package on his back, and then stood in the living room and looked towards Patriarch Nanming. When he saw this young boy, Nanming Patriarch smiled slightly. He had already told this boy what happened just now. ? ?After waving the young man to stop talking, Patriarch Nanming took out the Four Treasures of the Study Book from the desk next to him and started writing. After a while, a letter was written by him. After writing the letter, Nanming Patriarch left the tabletop and pressed it with an inkstone before saying to Xiao Ran and Qiu Qianchi next to him: "Let's go!" Xiao Ran nodded and stood up, turned around and walked towards the door. . When he walked over, he still looked at the young man for a year, then strode out quickly and flew directly into the air. The remaining two people followed without hesitation. As for the young man, he flew away in the air just as quickly under the protection of Nanming Ancestor. Different from when he came here, when he met the Xiao family, Xiao Ran deliberately slowed down a lot, admiring the magnificent scenery below. According to the speed of the four of them, it took them half a day to see the outline of Tianwu City. Although they had heard Xiao Ran say that he was from the city lord's family, they couldn't help but frowned when they saw that there were so many people in such a small city and there was very little noise. This is still the case when they are in the air, what if they are below? The ancestor of Nanming could not even imagine it. The speed of the four people was very fast, and they only disappeared in the air for a fleeting moment, and few people below found any trace of the four people. When the four people landed in Xiao Ran, they were immediately noticed by the busy crowd around them. Many people kept greeting Xiao Ran, and many people even cast curious glances at the people behind Xiao Ran. look. And this young man was also looking around curiously. It was obvious that he rarely came into contact with large groups of people. Xiao Ran didn¡¯t waste any time and directly brought the Nanming ancestor to meet his father and grandfather. After Xiao Ran¡¯s brief explanation, the two of them were even more overjoyed. They did not expect that Xiao Ran could invite experts of this level to come. You know, even just inviting a Sword Emperor requires a lot of money and resources, but now Xiao Ran has not only taken care of the two of them, but also asked them to take the initiative to protect the Xiao family. This is the best thing in the eyes of Xiao Tian and others. Nothing more. After some discussion, both Nanming ancestors and Qiu Qianchi were finally given the title of elders of the Xiao family's guest ministers. They only had to guard the sword pavilion. If there were enemies that they could not deal with, they would come out to help the Xiao family resolve the crisis. In addition, Xiao Tian originally planned to give some other material compensation, but Xiao Ran stopped it first. Regarding Xiao Ran's actions, the two of them nodded with satisfaction. Don't say what you gave them was useless. Even if they really wanted it, what would happen? It's just a useless thing. Xiao Ran sat down and watched his father and grandfather handle things properly, and finally breathed a long sigh of relief. Now Xiao Ran will no longer be the precarious Xiao family, even some big families , if you want to touch the Xiao family, you have to think carefully. Maybe the Xiao family can even turn over and destroy them. Seeing that he had nothing to do with himself, Xiao Ran left first. He wanted to say goodbye to Wan'er. Tomorrow, he had already dealt with everything here. Tomorrow, he would go to the depths of the Warcraft Mountains, where he would meet Ling Ling. After saying goodbye to his son and Xiaohuang, Xiao Ran was going to the outside world. For some reasons, when Yun Zhongzi talked with Xiao Ran, he vaguely revealed that Xiao Ran could go out directly, and his cultivation level did not need to reach the Sword God level. Of course, that was just a way. The best thing was to directly cultivate to Break the Void. Go out of the realm again. Yun Zhongzi did not want to cause trouble to the outside family, so he did not go out. Moreover, once he went out, it would be extremely difficult to come in. In the entire continent, few people could come in and out at will. Because the outer barrier seal is more than a hundred times more powerful than the inner one, anyone who wants to enter it can only have the slightest chance to open this channel unless they find more than ten powerful people who have reached the aspiration level and above. Still very slim. Back then, Yun Zhongzi was able to come in entirely due to luck. Even so, he was seriously injured and it took a long time to recover. Therefore, if Xiao Ran wanted to go out, he must find Yun Zhongzi again and ask questions, otherwise Xiao Ran would not be able to come back at all. Might be successful. With this thought in his mind, Xiao Ran had already arrived outside Nangong Wan'er's yard. Although Xiao Ran could tell whether Nangong Wan'er was there with just a simple sweep of his mental power, Xiao Ran still chose to knock on the door. ¡°Dong dong dong¡± The knock on the door rang rhythmically. After doing this, Xiao Ran stood outside the door and waited quietly. In just a moment, there was a sound of brisk footsteps in the small courtyard, accompanied by a squeak.With a sound, the courtyard door has opened. Nangong Wan'er was standing in the house wearing a purple skirt. When she saw Xiao Ran standing outside the door, she didn't know what she thought of, and suddenly her pretty face turned red. Xiao Ran smiled slightly and walked straight in. Nangong Wan'er closed the courtyard door behind and followed. Xiao Ran didn¡¯t speak first, and Nangong Wan¡¯er didn¡¯t speak either. For a moment, there seemed to be some awkwardness between the two. At this moment, Xiao Ran was thinking about whether to tell Wan'er about Xiao Huang. If he didn't tell Wan'er, he would feel sorry. If he did, he would be afraid that Wan'er would hate him. While Xiao Ran was still hesitating, his hand suddenly felt warm and was pulled up by Wan'er's little hand. " Xiao Ran held Wan'er's little hand behind his back. Everything he had been worried about seemed to disappear at this moment. Looking back, he found that Wan'er was staring at him, with a smile in his eyes, the corners of his mouth raised slightly, and he slowly hugged Wan'er. Suddenly being hugged by Xiao Ran, Nangong Wan'er didn't break away, she just hugged her quietly and let Xiao Ran hold her. I don't know how much time passed before Nangong Wan'er's voice sounded faintly: "Are you leaving again?" Hearing this, Xiao Ran hugged Wan'er even tighter. After a long time, Xiao Ran nodded gently and said : "I'm sorry!" "Don't say you're sorry, I will support you in whatever you want to do!" Wan'er's voice came softly. He wanted to say something more, but his lips were already blocked by Xiao Ran's mouth. The kiss took a long time to separate, and all the words were in this kiss. When Xiao Ran raised his head, Wan'er's eyes were already a little blurry, but when she saw Xiao Ran's half-smiling eyes, she suddenly woke up and pinched He grabbed Xiao Ran and immediately escaped from Xiao Ran's arms. Throughout the whole day, Xiao Ran stayed with Wan'er. Xiao Ran knew that once he left, he didn't know when he would be able to come back, and whether he could even come back was still a matter of speculation. Night fell slowly, and the sun in the sky slowly disappeared into the clouds. Large dark clouds began to gather in the entire sky, completely covering Tianwu City. A gust of cold wind suddenly roared past, and pieces of snowflakes suddenly began to fall from mid-air. Xiao Ran and Wan'er were standing in the small courtyard at the moment. When they looked up, they saw six diamond-shaped snowflakes in the sky falling continuously to the ground and melting. Another year is about to pass, and the two of them are leaning on each other, watching the snowflakes falling from the sky in silence. Tonight, Xiao Ran did not go back, and the two of them lingered together for a long time again. When the sky was getting brighter, Wan'er suddenly felt a little cold, and subconsciously wanted to hug the person next to her tightly. However, when she touched the person next to her, was there anyone there? Wan'er woke up instantly, no longer feeling sleepy at all. She stared blankly at the empty bed, tears slowly flowing down her face. Suddenly, out of the corner of her eye, she saw a letter placed aside. He quickly reached out to pick it up and opened it. There were only a few simple words on it, but it revealed a firm flavor. "Wan'er, I'm leaving. When I come back next time, it will be when we get married. If you want to, you can continue to stay in the Xiao family. If you don't want to, go back with your father. I will find you when I come back. , I'm leaving, and I may not be back for a short time, take care of yourself!" The letter ended abruptly here. Although nothing else was explained, Wan'er once again had the idea of ??looking forward to it. At this time, although it was only around five o'clock in the morning, the sky was already completely bright. After a night of heavy snow, the entire land was completely covered in silver. At this moment, Xiao Ran was flying high in the sky at a high speed. A translucent shield was quietly wrapping Xiao Ran. The destination of Xiao Ran's trip was very clear, which was Wolong City. The Murong family came to the Xiao family. Xiao Ran would never let this danger continue to exist. If he continued to let it go, who knows whether they would continue to do anything harmful to his family? Although Ling'er is now in the small world of Yun Zhongzi in the Warcraft Mountain Range, everyone in the Xiao family is outside. If they don't go in, Xiao Ran is really worried. Although Xiao Ran's speed was already terrifying, it still took him three full days to reach Wolong City. Nowadays, the entire Wolong Continent is completely covered in silver, and I, Grand Master, am no exception. Looking down from a high altitude, the entire Wolong City looks even more vicissitudes of life. Xiao Ran did not enter Wolong City. When he was with Yun Zhongzi, Yun Zhongzi had already told him where the sects of these hidden families were located. Because although these sword gods are powerful, they cannot create a single space out of thin air, so they must use some medium. As for the Murong family, Xiao Ran remembered that Yun Zhongzi said that they used a hidden place in the southwest of Wolong City. The small valley was carved out by the many thousand-year-old sycamore trees. Xiao Ran's speed was very fast, and he directly brought up a strong wind in mid-air, which directly cut through the space and shot into the southwest of Wolong City. Entering this position, Xiao Ran's speed suddenly slowed down, and his terrifyingly huge mental power spread violently. The scenes within a few miles around him were completely reflected in Xiao Ran's mind. After searching for more than half an hour, Xiao Ran entered a remote canyon by chance. Entering this canyon, Xiao Ran discovered a plant that was nearly a hundred meters tall and could not exceed the size of ten people's arms. Huge sycamore tree. Almost the moment he saw this tree, Xiao Ran was sure that it was the sycamore tree that Yun Zhongzi mentioned, because Xiao Ran felt some subtle air fluctuations from above. These fluctuations are very subtle, and maybe some Sword Emperors or even Sword Sects may not be able to detect them when they arrive, but how terrifying is Xiao Ran's mental power? The corresponding insight was naturally extremely terrifying, and only then did I discover the subtle fluctuations in spatial power at this location. Xiao Ran did not go in immediately. Instead, after observing the surroundings for a while and making sure that there was no one there, Xiao Ran stepped out. " Xiao Ran was very fast, and he came to the side of the sycamore tree in an instant. Looking at this huge sycamore tree, even Xiao Ran felt a sense of insignificance in his heart. However, when Xiao Ran came to the sycamore tree, the original spatial fluctuations suddenly disappeared, and Xiao Ran could not feel it again. Xiao Ran's brows suddenly frowned, and his mental power surged out crazily, constantly invading the sycamore tree to find out something. But the sycamore tree has the inherent function of isolating mental power from being detected. How could it be detected by Xiao Ran so easily? Obviously, these actions of Xiao Ran were useless, but after Xiao Ran had been searching there for almost a stick of incense, he finally found the power of space fluctuation again on the sycamore tree about five meters above the ground. A smile appeared on Xiao Ran's lips. He thought he really couldn't find you. Didn't he find you? With this thought in his mind, Xiao Ran had already directly hit the trunk of the sycamore tree. A wave of ripples suddenly came. There was no impact as expected. Xiao Ran's whole body had suddenly disappeared into the thick trunk of the sycamore tree and disappeared.
