In the end, Li Xiu did not find trouble with Chen Ning.
It could not be said that Junior Leopard's persuasion worked. It was because the next day, Madam Li suddenly appeared in Zhonghe City. Naturally, Li Xiu became well-behaved. Madam Li stayed in Zhonghe City for a day. After a short rest, she brought Li Xiu back to Pingzhou.
Before leaving, when Li Xiu came to bid farewell to Junior Leopard, he seemed a little reluctant. Junior Leopard sneered at him. When the two of them bid farewell, there was no scene of sending each other off in a pavilion. However, Li Xiu gave Junior Leopard a Jade Token. He said that if Junior Leopard went to Pingzhou in the future, he could use this Jade Token to go directly to the Li Mansion to look for him. His journey would be smooth. Junior Leopard searched his body at that time. He really did not have anything that he could take out. Even if he did, he could not take it out. In the end, he was really a little unwilling. He took out three Spiritual Stones from his body and painfully gave them to Li Xiu. This made Li Xiu very happy.
After Li Xiu left, Junior Leopard's days did not change much. Other than going to Li Yuan's place to be on duty, he practiced at home. His biggest gain was that he had refined a lot of Bone-Forging Pills. After taking a few, he felt that the effect was not bad. Although at the beginning, he also suffered a lot. However, his body's strength and the hardness of his bones were indeed many times faster than when he only practiced the Blood Evil Harden Bone Fist. Therefore, he accepted the punishment.
According to his current speed, he was confident that within half a year, he could step into the Bone-Forging Realm.
Once he reached the Bone-Forging Realm, he would not only be Li Yuan's personal guard and the Wu's inner core disciple, but he would also be qualified to become the Wu's Elder.
Any Wu's disciple, as long as his cultivation reached the Bone-Forging Realm, would automatically become the Wu's Elder. This was a rule set when the Wu's was established.
Junior Leopard came from the Wu's and was also an inner core disciple. This rule was naturally very suitable for him.
However, Junior Leopard did not want to become the Wu's Elder so early. Firstly, he was too young. At such a young age, he started practicing late. Without the help of those decoctions for Bone-Forging Realm, if he reached the Level Four Bone-Forging Realm, he would definitely be suspected by others. Secondly, although the Elders were divided into those who were idle and those who held power, it still involved a lot of problems regarding the distribution of benefits. Rashly rushing into the Wu's core circle of benefits was not something he wanted to do. He did not have to worry about food or drink now and his status was not low. There was no need to be involved in the Wu's struggle for benefits so early. Therefore, even if he entered the Bone-Forging Realm half a year later, he did not intend to tell anyone. Anyway, he had the wonderful secret skill, Snake-like Breath Holding Skill. Hiding his spirit and concealing his cultivation was a very easy thing to do.
As the days went by, Junior Leopard's mood also became more and more nervous. Now, he no longer practiced his hammer skills. Every day, he practiced his swordsmanship. He was already very familiar with the moves of the Silver Moon Sword Technique. His understanding of swordsmanship had also deepened. Especially during these few days when he was with Li Xiu, Junior Leopard would ask some questions about swordsmanship from time to time, which benefited him a lot.
The cultivation of his External Elixir had also reached Level Six. Moreover, because of the Bright Moon Deifying Technique, the Green Jade Qian Yuan Internal Qi in the External Elixir seemed to have been practiced for decades. It was incomparably condensed and blended into one. Not only the power of the Green Jade Qian Yuan Internal Qi, but also the refined power of fire in the Mysterious Fire that permeated into the External Elixir seemed to be integrated into the Green Jade Qian Yuan Internal Qi. This caused his Green Jade Qian Yuan Internal Qi to have some strange changes. The color of the Internal Qi began to darken, with traces of fire strength, which made the Green Jade Qian Yuan Internal Qi more lethal.
Now, he only needed to activate the External Elixir, put on a mask, hold a dagger, and display the Silver Moon Sword Technique. Even if he stood in front of Xu Yong, Xu Yong would not be able to recognize him.
He had already taken back the mask. To be honest, the peddler's craftsmanship was not bad. It was almost exactly the same as his. Of course, this was not a complicated job.
The style of the mask came from his own bad taste. It was the mask of the comic Grim Reaper that he had read in his previous life. Although it was not complicated, it looked very strange. If he wore it in the middle of the night and covered it with a black cloak, it would definitely scare people to death.
"There is still one month left. But Zhonghe Prefecture seems to be very far from Yunzhou. How should I tell the Admiral? I can't say, Your Excellency, I want to go and ruin Lu Shaoyou's wedding and want to ask for a few days' leave from you, right? "
This was pure bullsh * t!
However, this problem that gave him a headache was soon solved by him. He received an invitation from Yunzhou. It was the marriage of Jin Nanqing and Wu Yuntian's daughter, Wu Yuzhu.
This was a reasonable thing, but it was out of Junior Leopard's expectation. Originally, he thought that this matter would be at least a year later. You should know that in this world, when the father died, he had to observe mourning. How could he get married in just half a year?
Junior Leopard was also puzzled about the key point, but he did not probe too much. He directly took the invitation and asked for leave from Li Yuan. Unexpectedly, Li Yuan did not even look at it and allowed it.
However, looking at his expression, Junior Leopard had doubts in his heart.
"Damn it, could it be that Wang She had already told him about this matter? That's why he agreed so readily?" Junior Leopard's mind flashed with the weird smile on Li Yuan's face when he went to ask for leave. "Who cares.
If Wang She told him, it means that their relationship is very deep. For me, it's a good thing. Sigh, it's really troublesome. This Wang She has my biggest weakness, but I can't not be constrained by him. Even though he doesn't seem to have any evil intentions towards me now, it's hard to guarantee that he won't in the future. It's really troublesome! "
After asking for leave, Junior Leopard did not delay. He casually packed up and explained the family matters to Wang Tianlei. In fact, there was nothing much to explain, so he hurriedly went on his way.
This time, he had another purpose in going to Yunzhou, which was to ask Xu Yong to forge a pair of hammers for him. His hammers were destroyed by Li Xiu, so it was troublesome to not have a suitable weapon in his hands.
From Zhonghe Prefecture to Yunzhou, the journey was peaceful. To be honest, there was nothing that could threaten him along the way. On the way, he met a few groups of bandits, but they were all farmers who had nowhere else to go. They were weak and Junior Leopard naturally did not want to make things difficult for them. After teaching them a lesson, he let them go.
Seven days later, he arrived at Yunzhou's Qinlingjun City.
Qinlingjun City had not changed much since he left. Naturally, there was nothing much to say about it. He had only left for half a year. The only difference was that the people in Qinlingjun City were somewhat excited, as if they were waiting for something good to happen.
After asking around, he found out that the people in Qinlingjun City were actually excited about Miss Ma's marriage. This was not because they were eager for her to get married, but purely because they felt that this was a great happy event. Governor Ma's daughter getting married was not only Governor Ma's matter, but also the whole Yunzhou's matter.
"Tsk, it's not like your daughter is getting married. Why are they so excited?!" Sitting in the restaurant, Junior Leopard disdainfully looked at the jubilant passers-by outside the window. He was very puzzled.
"Junior Brother, you were born in a mountain village and close to Misty Mountain. Naturally, you don't know the prestige of Governor Ma in Yunzhou. You know, if it wasn't for Governor Ma, Yunzhou would still be a small border state. Every year, we would be threatened by Northern Yuan. Since Governor Ma came, you see, every family is living and working in peace and contentment without any worries. Even beggars are rarely seen on the streets. It can be said that Yunzhou has been greatly governed. Tell me, how can they not be grateful to Governor Ma? In the eyes of the people in Yunzhou, Governor Ma is their second parent. Tell me, how can they not be excited about Governor Ma marrying his daughter?! "Opposite to Junior Leopard, Xiao Lou poured him a cup of wine and said.
Junior Leopard smiled and said no more. Ma Tianchang's influence and prestige in Yunzhou was indeed unmatched by anyone. Even the imperial court did not have such a good reputation. That was why people said that the whole Yunzhou only knew of Governor Ma and not the imperial court.
"By the way, what's the matter with Senior Brother Jin? Why is he getting married now? Wu Yuntian died less than half a year ago. Isn't he still in the mourning period?! "
"I also feel that this matter is strange. Not only me, but Senior Brother Jin is also very strange!" Speaking of this matter, Jin Nanqing's face revealed a very strange expression. "I heard that it seems to be the intention of the higher-ups. We also don't know!"
"This is a little strange!" Junior Leopard said, but in his heart, he was secretly muttering, "Could it be that Wang She wanted to find an excuse for me to leave Zhonghe City? That's why he made such a thing? Yes, it must be. Otherwise, how could it be so coincidental that the date was set on the day after Lu Shaoyou's reception. Hehe, this damn guy, the Chief of Tian Long Taoism. Nominally, Tian Long Taoism is the backer of the Wu Family. But after all, this is the internal affairs of the Wu Family. Unexpectedly, he can also have a say in it. Moreover, he can push all this secretly and find an excuse for me to return to Yunzhou without anyone knowing.
Awesome! In the past, he only felt that Wang She's martial arts were high and his behavior was strange. But today, he was shocked to find that apart from martial arts, Wang She also had a great influence in the whole Tian Long Taoism and even the subordinate forces of Tian Long Taoism!
Silently drinking a mouthful of wine, Junior Leopard's lightly knitted eyebrows slightly relaxed. "Senior Brother Lou, what did my teacher go to do? Do you have any news?! "
"How could I possibly have any news? It wasn't just Elder Xu. The other three elders also went with him!" Speaking of this, his face revealed a mysterious expression. His body slowly moved in front of Junior Leopard. "But I heard that they went to Pingzhou!"
"Pingzhou?!" Junior Leopard said with some surprise. "What did they go to Pingzhou for?!"
"It seems that the Li Family in Pingzhou got a piece of Meteoric Iron. Its quality is excellent. They want to forge a Secondary Heavenly Weapon. So they invited all the Elders of the Wu Family who specialize in refining weapons. Not only our Wu Family, but also the Elders of the Jian, Luo and Pei Families who specialize in refining weapons!"
