Chapter 266

Watching Jiang Xiaofan walk out of the bamboo building slowly, Bai Yichen and Long Xi stood outside the building and raised their heads slightly. They were both stunned!

After not seeing Jiang Xiaofan for half a year, he was very different from before!

He had the same appearance, the same personality, and the same clothes, but they always felt that Jiang Xiaofan had an extraordinary temperament, as if he was an unattainable immortal.

His delicate appearance, the strength of the Earth Martial Arts Realm, coupled with that temperament, it was simply amazing!

No one knew what Jiang Xiaofan had experienced in the past half a year, only he knew!

At the Body Relic stage, Jiang Xiaofan's body shrank, gradually changing from tangible to intangible. His body shrank to the size of a pellet, then became intangible, becoming an immortal.

Under the gazes of the two girls, Jiang Xiaofan walked in front of them. Jiang Xiaofan tilted his head and said, "Let's go!"

Bai Yichen and Long Xi suppressed the surprise in their hearts, held hands, and walked towards the stairs, while Jiang Xiaofan and Wei Qing walked side by side behind them.

"Elder Wei, your body has improved a lot in the past half a year, it seems that you are not far from breaking through." Jiang Xiaofan saw that Wei Qing had already reached the realm of Rank Nine Spirit Body, the elixir seemed to be very effective for him.

Wei Qing smiled. "Far from it. However, I'm afraid your body is already an Immortal Physique, right?"

Wei Qing's words hit the nail on the head, causing Jiang Xiaofan to feel a little awkward. Indeed, the older, the wiser. Wei Qing had lived for more than a hundred years, he could tell that Jiang Xiaofan's body had improved a lot.

The two of them were chatting about various methods to improve their cultivation and physical bodies. At this moment, Long Xi's shout pulled the two of them back from their pleasant conversation.

"Grandma!"

Long Xi walked quickly to Long Xi, who was overjoyed to see her obedient grandson coming out of the Dragon Vein unscathed. She grabbed Long Xi's arm and looked at her up and down, "My Xi 'er has finally grown up."

Facing her grandma's praise, Long Xi was also very happy. At this moment, she suddenly thought of something and said to Long Jian, "Grandma, this is my Master, he was the one who cured me."

Long Xi looked at Jiang Xiaofan from head to toe, then nodded, "Good, good, good. Since ancient times, heroes have always been born from the young. To be able to become an Iron Armored Royal Guard at such a young age, you are also extraordinary. This old man will write a letter to Long Tian to promote you."

"Senior, please wait, forget about promoting me. Since Xi 'er is my Master and trusts me so much, these are what I should do." Jiang Xiaofan smiled at Long Xi.

Looking at this young man who had no desire for fame or fortune, Long Xi 'er's eyes were full of praise. She nodded, "Fine, this old man can't be bothered with the matters of the imperial court. If there's anything you want, just tell Xi' er, the Long family will naturally help you achieve it."

"Thank you very much."

Jiang Xiaofan bowed to Long Xi and after exchanging a few pleasantries, he met up with the three brothers and they directly walked out of the Immortal Abode.

To everyone, this cultivation session was not a small improvement, not to mention the three brothers. With the help of the elixirs given by Jiang Xiaofan, the efficiency of their cultivation was more than ten times that of the others. Naturally, they improved by leaps and bounds.

Now, Iron Hammer had already reached the Sky Martial Arts Realm, while Iron Shovel and Iron Plow were already at the peak of the Earth Martial Arts Realm, only one step away from the Sky Martial Arts Realm.

Bai Yichen was now only a thought away from the Martial King Realm. Because breaking through to the Martial King Realm was a major event, it could not be carried out in the Dragon Vein. She had to be brought to the Kunlun Mystery Land by the Bai family's elders and focus on the test of the Kunlun Snow Fox to help her break through.

The next cultivation session would be three years later, but Bai Yichen was probably here to break through to the Martial King Realm. However, the premise was that three years later, Jiang Xiaofan could carry out the plan and help the Spiritual Brilliance Realm survive the catastrophe!

Walking out of the door, Long Xi clenched her fists, then a wave of martial arts Qi slowly rose and lifted her body into the air. With a face full of excitement, she turned her head and said to Jiang Xiaofan, "Master, I can fly in the air … yayaya …"

Flying in the air for the first time, Long Xi was too excited. Her body tilted and was about to fall. Fortunately, Jiang Xiaofan noticed it in time and rushed forward to support her. "Be careful …"

"Don't be afraid! Master is by my side ~ "Long Xi revealed a mischievous smile, making Jiang Xiaofan feel helpless.

Bai Yichen and Wei Qing flew to their side and said to Ye Hao, who came to guide them, "Ye Hao, we'll be leaving first."

"Yes!"

When Ye Hao arrived and saw Long Xi hovering in the air, he knew that Jiang Xiaofan had succeeded. He secretly congratulated him, but he did not get carried away. He still counted the people carefully and led them away.

As Jiang Xiaofan followed Long Xi to the palace to meet Long Tian, the three brothers did not follow. After all, they had stayed in the mountains for half a year and relied on their spiritual power to survive. Now that they were out, they would be letting down their fat bodies if they did not eat and drink to their heart's content in the capital!

Watching the few of them leave happily, Bai Shao stood in the courtyard and watched Jiang Xiaofan's back view gradually disappear into the distance. He turned and returned to the house.

…

"Ridiculous!"

At this moment, Long Tian sat in the court and threw the memorial in his hands on the ground angrily. He reprimanded, "The dragon vein is the root of the northern border, and the spirit vein is the source of cultivation. The spirit vein is gone? What is the City Lord's Abode doing? "

Chu Heng took a step forward and said respectfully to Long Tian, "Your Majesty, I don't know if this news is true or false, but I heard that the Seven Planet Sect is mining the spirit vein. I think we need to send an army to investigate."

At this moment, Mi Yan, who was standing at the side, slowly walked forward. Long Tianjin had made a breakthrough in his martial arts and had reorganized the imperial court, causing his authority to be greatly reduced. He was very unhappy and expressed his opinion on this matter, "Your Majesty, the Seven Luminaries Sect is indeed unfathomable. At this moment, the relationship between this and the Seven Luminaries Sect is definitely not small. This is a serious matter and we should send elite troops. General Bai or General Zhu should lead elite troops to investigate.

Bai Moxing stood at the side in armor. At this moment, he frowned and sneered in his heart. Old fox!

There had been news of the spirit vein moving two months ago, but Mei Yan had suppressed it again and again until today. Now, he definitely had something to do with it. Yet, he actually wanted Bai Moxing or Chu Heng, who held military power, to go out. There was most likely a trap!

Mei Yan had ruled the court for many years and the people had no way to live. Now, he actually had an interest in military power!

Faced with such ambition, Bai Moxing was about to step forward and say something when there was a commotion outside. Then, four people landed outside the hall. Everyone looked over and saw Bai Yichen and Long Xi bringing Wei Qing and Jiang Xiaofan over.

When Long Tian saw Long Xi, his gloomy expression instantly disappeared. He looked at Long Xi with joy in his eyes.

"Father!"

Long Xi quickly walked up and came to his side. Long Tian grasped Long Xi's hand and immediately felt the power of Sky Martial Qi!

"Xi 'er is already in the Sky Martial Realm. Not bad, not bad!" Long Tian said sincerely. His tone was as if a heavy burden had been lifted from his shoulders. This sore point that had been pressing on him for more than ten years was finally eradicated.

Long Xi nodded fiercely and said, "It's all thanks to Master. There were many times when I almost couldn't hold on anymore. Master stayed by my side and encouraged me, making me stand up again and again. Otherwise, you wouldn't have been able to see Xi 'er again."

The first thing the eccentric Long Xi did was put in a good word for Jiang Xiaofan. This little girl was really quite thoughtful.

Long Tian looked at Jiang Xiaofan who was standing in the hall and nodded. He said loudly, "Jiang Xiaofan, listen up!"

Hearing that this guy was going to reward him, Jiang Xiaofan hurriedly straightened his body. However, he did not kneel down to pay his respects. Seeing this, Mi Yan wanted to scold him. Half a year ago, Jiang Xiaofan's limelight had faintly overshadowed his. He even told Long Tian that a lowly commoner like Jiang Xiaofan would harm the princess. Long Tian went to warn Jiang Xiaofan, and he even said some harsh words.

Now, his face was slapped loudly. At this time, he had wanted to use the emperor's prestige to take Jiang Xiaofan down a notch. However, Long Tian did not seem to care, so he forcefully swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth.

Long Tian said loudly, "Jiang Xiaofan is young and promising. He cultivates both alchemy and weaponry, and his martial arts attainments are quite deep. He has done a meritorious service in treating the princess's chronic illness. We have decided to grant him the title of Golden Armor Imperial Guard, and reward him with a mansion in the imperial capital, a hundred servants, and a thousand gold ingots! "

When he finished, everyone sucked in a breath of cold air!

A seventeen-year-old youth was granted the title of Golden Armor Imperial Guard. There had never been such a young Golden Armor Imperial Guard in the northern border. The youngest one was at least forty years old.

Not only that, a thousand gold ingots! That was too much!

As everyone knew, the currency of the Spirit Brilliance Boundary was copper coins and silver coins. One million copper coins = one silver coin, and one gold coin was one million silver coins!

One trillion copper coins!

This was a huge sum of money that was enough for a family to squander for decades!

It could be seen that this time, Long Tian was really happy! The reward and recognition for Jiang Xiaofan was absolutely high!

Jiang Xiaofan was also quite surprised, but he knew one thing. The tallest tree in the forest was the first to be destroyed by the wind. Moreover, he was only a newcomer in the Imperial Capital. Such a generous reward would definitely attract covetous eyes.

Thinking of this, Jiang Xiaofan made a prompt decision. "Reporting to Your Majesty, this Golden Armor Imperial Guard is quite awe-inspiring, and it is also what I want. But forget about this Ding and gold ingots. I only have one request."

Long Tian was also surprised that Jiang Xiaofan was so calm in the face of wealth and even directly rejected it. But on second thought, Jiang Xiaofan was a genius in both alchemy and weapon cultivation, so it was reasonable that money had no temptation to him. He was suddenly a little curious about Jiang Xiaofan's request, so he said, "Speak!"

Jiang Xiaofan cupped his hands and said, "My Jiang Clan has been away from the Imperial Capital for hundreds of years. Who doesn't want to bring honor to their ancestors? I want the Jiang Clan to move to the Imperial Capital. Can Your Majesty agree?"

Hearing this, Long Tian immediately understood Jiang Xiaofan's intentions. No wonder he didn't refuse money, but an official position and a mansion. It turned out that he already had this plan!

But this was not a big deal. The Jiang Clan only had a few hundred people, so moving to the Imperial Capital was not a problem. So he waved his hand and said, "Approved!"

"Thank you for your grace, Your Majesty!"

Jiang Xiaofan bowed slightly. He was extremely happy in his heart. The Jiang Clan could move to the Imperial Capital. With such abundant spiritual energy and the help of Jiang Xiaofan's elixirs, they would quickly rise. Although they might not be powerful, they would at least be many times stronger than the three great clans of Howling Sky City.

At this moment, Mi Yan's eyes turned and he said to Long Tian, "General Jiang must return to Howling Sky City now. Why don't we let him investigate the spirit vein along the way? Wouldn't that be killing two birds with one stone?"

Chu Heng and Bai Moxing suddenly frowned. "This is bad!"
