"I … Whatever. It's better to go as far as possible. I'm afraid that the West Mountain Corpse will come back. I can't beat her. Even if she can't extract my primordial spirit in my normal state, she will still kill me …" Nie Xiaoyu was obviously very afraid of death. It was possible that she had died once, so she was especially afraid of death.
"Alright, tell me where to stop, and I'll stop for you!" Xiao Chen's car entered the highway intersection, and then he drove at a high speed again.
Shen Jingxuan, who was on the side, was amazed. Although she was born in a Zhenwu family, she had never heard of Yin Cultivators. However, Nie Xiaoyu's experience was really pitiful. First, she was cultivated into a Yin Cultivator, then she was killed, and then she was controlled by the West Mountain Corpse.
Therefore, Shen Jingxuan did not have any resentment towards her. After a while, she took the initiative to talk to her, "Nie Xiaoyu, what did you do in the past? Why did you cultivate Yin Cultivators? "
"My … My family was destroyed …" Nie Xiaoyu hesitated for a moment and said, "And I was also taken away to be experimented on Yin Cultivators. They asked me to practice mental cultivation methods first, and then they killed me. Maybe it was because my reaction was slow. I didn't wake up in a normal time, so they thought I was dead and threw my body in the wilderness. As a result, I woke up and quickly ran away, cultivating while running … If I didn't cultivate, I would die again! I wanted to take revenge for my parents … In the end, I met the West Mountain Corpse … "
"Sigh!" Shen Jingxuan couldn't help but sigh after hearing this. Nie Xiaoyu's life was really tragic. She couldn't help but feel sympathetic. "Xiao Chen, can we help her?"
"How?" Xiao Chen didn't know whether to laugh or cry. First of all, with his strength, it was impossible for him to avenge Nie Xiaoyu. The forces that could create Yin Cultivators were definitely not small. If Xiao Chen went, he would only be courting death.
Moreover, he didn't know anything about Yin Cultivators. It was impossible for him to help Nie Xiaoyu cultivate, so Xiao Chen couldn't help at all.
"This …" Shen Jingxuan thought about it carefully and agreed. How could she help Nie Xiaoyu?
"You are all good people, so I won't trouble you. Besides, you really can't help me much …" Nie Xiaoyu said, "In fact, even I don't know who my enemy is …"
"Huh?" Shen Jingxuan didn't expect Nie Xiaoyu to be so miserable.
"Don't worry about me. I … I'm lucky to be able to live until now." Nie Xiaoyu shook her head. "You are all good people. If there is a chance in the future, I will repay you!"
"Alive … Aren't you dead?" Xiao Chen smiled bitterly. Hearing a "dead man" say that he would repay him, why was it so horrifying?
"How should I put it … I can be regarded as a living dead now. Yin Cultivators pay attention to life after death. This life can also be understood as resurrection. It may be a little different, but I'm not much different from a normal person now, and I can still eat." Nie Xiaoyu said, "It's just that I feel uncomfortable when I see sunlight, and I will lose strength after a long time, so I'm more suitable to come out at night. You don't have to be afraid of me. I'm not a ghost, nor a corpse …"
"I see." Shen Jingxuan breathed a sigh of relief. Previously, she was a little afraid of Nie Xiaoyu and thought that she was very scary. Now that she heard what Nie Xiaoyu said, she realized that Nie Xiaoyu was also a normal person, but her cultivation method was different.
"There's a fork in the highway up ahead. Just drop me off. I'll find a place to settle down first. This time, I'll rent a house and focus on my cultivation. I won't go to a graveyard, a place with heavy Yin Qi, just for the sake of cultivating faster." Nie Xiaoyu also learned from her mistakes. Last time, her primordial spirit was extracted by the Old Corpse of West Mountain there.
"In front? Isn't it a little close? Are you sure? Don't let the Old Corpse of West Mountain find you. "Xiao Chen reminded her.
"Then, where are you going?" Nie Xiaoyu asked.
"We're going to Lan City." Xiao Chen said, "It's quite far from here. You should be able to live in peace."
"Then let's go to Lan City." Nie Xiaoyu actually had no purpose. She was afraid of troubling Xiao Chen before. Now that it was on the way, she would go with him.
Xiao Chen drove fast on the highway. Even though he drove very fast, Lan City and Songning were on the border of the south and north, so it would take a long time to buy a house.
Finally, at dawn, Xiao Chen's car arrived at Lan City. After getting off the highway, Xiao Chen found a place to put Nie Xiaoyu down. Nie Xiaoyu couldn't see the sun for a long time, so she found a small hotel and stayed there. She planned to look for a house in the evening.
Xiao Chen drove to the Shen Family with Shen Jingxuan. When they were about to arrive at the Shen Family, Xiao Chen took out the mask of the white fox and covered his face. Since he had arrived at the Shen Family, he couldn't use Xiao Chen's face to show others. It was better for him to use the face of the white fox.
Under the guidance of Shen Jingxuan, Xiao Chen drove the car to the front of a very magnificent manor. This was not out of Xiao Chen's expectation. In Songning, the Cheng family was also this imposing. It was normal for the Shen Family to be more imposing as they belonged to the Real Martial Arts Family. The manor occupied a large area. It obviously cost a lot of money to build it.
However, Xiao Chen didn't expect that when the car drove into the manor, a modern atmosphere hit him. The entire manor was like a high-tech development zone, which surprised Xiao Chen a little!
Didn't these ancient martial arts families like to live in those kind of antique houses? These people who practiced martial arts had an extraordinary fondness and nostalgia for those ancient things.
In Songning, even the Xiao family was like this. The house was built according to the style of ancient families as much as possible. There were no tall buildings inside, at most no more than three stories, and they were full of martial arts atmosphere. The courtyard was the same, with rockery and gardens. Some modern street lights and driveways were avoided as much as possible. However, it was different here. After entering the manor, looking around, there was not only a spacious driveway, but also modern street lights and a modern farm.
"Is this your home? Why does it feel like a modern big enterprise? "Xiao Chen asked with some puzzlement." The Shen Family was not originally here.
"The Shen family wasn't originally here. This place was built according to Second Grandpa's idea. Although Second Grandpa's strength level was very high, he wasn't a martial artist when he was young. He even studied abroad. After he came back, by chance, he entered the demonic sect and became an expert demonic cultivator, so his thinking was more modern. No one in the family could disobey his arrangements, so the family was built like this." Shen Jingxuan said, "When I was young, I actually lived in a place similar to Meng Ying's family."
"So that's how it is!" Xiao Chen thought that Second Grandpa of the Shen Family was really a legendary figure. He became a monk halfway, but he was so powerful, just like himself.
The car drove all the way and finally drove into the villa area. It stopped in front of a super large courtyard house. This was the residence of the core members of the Shen Family. Those ordinary servants and disciples naturally could not live here. Only the people of the Shen Family lived here.
Xiao Chen parked the car and got out with Shen Jingxuan. Shen Jingxuan walked quickly to the courtyard house. At the entrance of the courtyard house, there were disciples of the Shen Family guarding. When they saw Shen Jingxuan, they were slightly surprised, but then they quickly ran over.
It was a man in his twenties wearing a training suit. He should be a core disciple of the Shen Family.
"Miss Jingxuan, my name is Shen Xiaoliu. You are back. Mr. Zhenghao said that you will arrive in the morning. When you arrive, I will directly take you to him. " The disciple of the Shen Family called Shen Xiaoliu walked over and said. But his eyes fell on Xiao Chen. Because Xiao Chen was wearing a mask, Shen Xiaoliu was especially vigilant. He asked, "Miss Jingxuan, this is?"
"This is my boyfriend, Baihu." Shen Jingxuan introduced, "He came with me. My father also knows him!"
Shen Xiaoliu nodded and said, "Good, you can come with us. But in the inner courtyard of the Shen Family, don't make a noise!"
"Understood." Xiao Chen did not object. After all, he went to the Shen Family, so he had to follow their rules.
Xiao Chen and Shen Jingxuan followed behind Shen Xiaoliu. They walked all the way to a relatively remote villa in the courtyard. But when they walked, they saw a woman in her forties wearing casual clothes. When she saw Shen Jingxuan, she was obviously stunned. Then she came out and said, "Oh, Jingxuan, you are back?"
"So it is Aunt (Big Aunt)." Shen Jingxuan raised her head and saw Tan Muwei, the wife of her Big Uncle. Her Big Uncle was a core disciple of the Shen Family. Unlike her father, who was born from a concubine, his status was naturally not the same.
And her Big Uncle's son, Shen Jingtian, was a strong contender for the position of Junior Patriarch. But now, it seems that the situation has changed subtly. These martial arts families generally choose the Junior Patriarch after a generation. They will not choose the Junior Patriarch from the next generation unless the age gap is obvious.
Because the lifespan of a martial artist is very long, generally speaking, a father and a son may live for the same amount of time. Therefore, the Shen Family used to compete for the position of Junior Patriarch in Shen Jingmao's generation.
But now, because of Shen Jingxuan's grandfather's sudden illness, it is possible that the position of Junior Patriarch will fall on Shen Jingxuan's father's generation. And the most likely candidate is Shen Jingxuan's Big Uncle, Shen Zhengquan.
"Jingxuan, who is this? Your bodyguard? "Tan Muwei looked at Xiao Chen and asked.
"Ah, this is my boyfriend, White Fox." Shen Jingxuan introduced, "White Fox, this is my Aunt. You can also call her Aunt."
When Xiao Chen was about to greet her, he heard Tan Muwei say coldly, "I can't afford it. Jingxuan, if you want a boyfriend, why don't you tell your family? With your grandfather's condition, you still want a boyfriend? This matter needs to be discussed with the family again. The marriage of the Shen Family's children needs to listen to the family's arrangements. "
