"I found a good place to stay here. If Brother He has the time, please visit my humble abode." Zhan Tianfeng smiled and invited him.
He Yiming only pondered for a moment before agreeing. But before leaving, he nodded slightly at Shui Xuanjin, Ting Shiguang, and the others.
Although they didn't really help He Yiming this time, their intentions were enough to make He Yiming appreciate it.
As if they understood the meaning in He Yiming's eyes, Shui Xuanjin and the others were overjoyed. Two of them were originally nervous and hesitant, but now they were even more overjoyed. They were all glad that they followed the crowd this time. Otherwise, not only would they be unable to continue to befriend He Yiming, but they would also offend this expert with a promising future.
Under Zhan Tianfeng's guidance, He Yiming and Ting Shiguang left.
Looking at the backs of the two of them, all sorts of feelings welled up in everyone's heart. Especially when they looked at He Yiming, their gazes were all scorching.
Clearly, half a day ago, everyone was still Master Bai Santian of similar status. However, in just a few hours, He Yiming's status had undergone an incredible change.
From now on, the difference between them and the One-Line-Sky experts would be like the difference between the heavens and the earth.
After an unknown amount of time, these Innate Masters silently looked at each other. However, from the beginning to the end, no one glanced at Bu Xingcong again, not even Mu Jintian.
It wasn't that he was cold by nature, but the consequences caused by Bu Xingcong were too bad. Under such circumstances, no matter how good a person's self-restraint was, it would be impossible to tolerate him.
Mao Lieguang naturally played the role of a peacemaker, mediating between the Innate Masters on both sides.
At this time, everyone knew that this matter had come to an end, and no one was interested in continuing to pursue it.
Four hours later, the servants were summoned to tidy up everything, including the corpses of Bu Xingcong and the unlucky Xiantian expert.
Although Mu Jintian's expression was gloomy and his complexion was not good, no one dared to underestimate him because of this.
Although he hadn't broken through to One-Line-Sky, he was still invincible in these Hundred Scatter Heavens by relying on his freezing cold energy.
When everything was ready, Mao Lieguang coughed lightly and said, "Everyone, is the Masters' Trade Fair that we agreed on going on as scheduled?"
Everyone looked at Mu Jintian. He was the only one who could make the decision.
Mu Jintian hesitated for a moment before immediately saying, "Of course it will be held as scheduled. Everyone, there is no need to hold back because of Bu Xingcong." He paused for a moment, and then said seriously, "The friendship between Tu Fan and Kai Rong will definitely not change because of this."
Shui XuanJin frowned slightly and snorted softly. Although his voice was soft, other than the ignorant Hsieh Ming-chin, who could stand here, which one of them wasn't smart?
Mu Jintian smiled bitterly and added, "It was my negligence. The friendship between Tu Fan and Tian Luo will not be affected because of this small matter."
Shui XuanJin nodded in satisfaction. After getting Mu Jintian's promise, he was really relieved.
The promise of an Xiantian expert like him was far more useful and reliable than the promises of politicians.
Mao Lieguang's brows furrowed slightly.
Mu Jin Tian's words actually compared the Kai Rong Country to the Tian Luo Country, as if these two countries were on the same level.
Regardless of whether Mu Jintian mentioned it intentionally or not, it was not a good omen.
Everyone agreed on the specific time of the Masters' Trade Fair and was about to leave. All of a sudden, a hearty laugh came from outside the door.
"Junior Brother, you finally succeeded in breaking through. If Master knew, he would definitely be overjoyed."
This voice was like thunder in winter. Although it wasn't very loud, everyone who heard it felt a sense of trepidation.
At this moment, everyone thought of He Yiming's shout.
Then, a burly man appeared in front of everyone. He seemed to be middle-aged and had a full beard. He looked like a typical burly man from the North.
As soon as he appeared, his gaze landed on Mu Jintian. Then, the smile on his face slowly froze. Finally, his eyes flashed with surprise.
"Junior Brother, what's going on? You actually didn't break through. Then who was the one who used the power of Ice to break through? Also, who was the one who injured you? Was it Zhan Tianfeng? "
His words were like firecrackers, one after another. Coupled with his special Northern Borderline accent, it was hard to understand what he was saying.
Nevertheless, Mu Jintian seemed to have been with him for a long time, so he heard everything clearly. He smiled bitterly and said, "Senior Brother Zhuo, don't mention it. I wasn't injured by Zhan Tianfeng."
Senior Brother Zhuo blinked and asked in confusion, "In the Kairong Country, apart from Zhan Tianfeng, is there anyone else who can hurt you?" He suddenly widened his eyes and asked, "Could it be the person who broke through just now?"
Mu Jintian pursed his lips and suddenly asked, "Senior Brother Zhuo, why are you here?"
Senior Martial Brother Zhuo chuckled and said, "I'm here on Master's orders to escort you." He cupped his hands at the north and added, "Master said that you're at a critical juncture now and can break through the One-Line Sky at any time, so he wants me to follow you from afar. If I sense any changes, I can protect you at any time."
Mu Jintian's eyes were filled with gratitude. He took a deep breath, looked towards the north, and bowed. Although he didn't say anything, his sincere attitude had already revealed his feelings.
Mao Lieguang's expression changed a few times, then he braced himself and asked, "Brother Mu, this senior is …"
They could sense a powerful aura from Senior Brother Zhuo, which was terrifying. It was definitely not inferior to Zhan Tianfeng and He Yiming, who had broken through to the One-Line Sky.
Since he understood the other party's strength, Mao Lieguang did not dare to be negligent.
Mu Jintian nodded at him and said, "This is me, a senior brother from the same sect, Zhuo Wanlian."
"The Tiger of the Northern Borderline?" Mao Lieguang exclaimed. He was almost frightened by this person's name.
After hearing this name, Shui Xuanjin and the others thought of a person at the same time, and their faces changed.
They finally understood that Mu Jintian was this person's disciple. No wonder he could reach the peak of the Hundred Scatter Sky at the age of 120 and had the strength to break through to the One-Line Sky at any time.
Zhuo Wanlian glanced at Mao Lieguang indifferently. He did not put this person in his eyes at all, and at the same time, he was too lazy to pay attention to him.
"Junior Brother, a few days ago, I found a spirit beast, so I went into the mountains to hunt it down. Today, I hurried over, but when I was a hundred miles away, I could feel the cold air here. It was as if all the cold air in the world had condensed here. This is clearly a sign of someone breaking through to the One-Line Sky with the cold attribute. "He said with a dignified face," Senior Brother, I rushed over, but I was still a step too late. Since it was not you who broke through to the One-Line Sky, could it be that there is another Hundred Scatter Sky peak cultivator here? "
Mu Jintian's face was bitter. He did not hide anything and recounted his fight with He Yiming. In the end, he said, "Senior Brother, He Yiming is only 17 years old this year, and he broke through to the Hundred Scatter Sky at the age of 15."
Zhuo Wanlian's eyes widened. His lips twitched a few times, and he said, "A 15 year old Xiantian? A 17 year old in the One-Line Sky? "
Mu Jintian nodded heavily. There was a complicated feeling in his eyes.
Zhuo Wanlian took a deep breath. His eyes suddenly shone brightly, and he stared in a certain direction.
It was the direction He Yiming and Zhan Tianfeng had left.
"Breaking through to the One-Line Sky within two years, hehe … How can I not go and see such an interesting person?" Zhuo Wanlian said softly.
He was born with a loud voice. Even when he was questioning Mu Jintian, he did not lower his voice at all. However, this was the first time he had lowered his voice.
Mu Jintian's face changed slightly, and he said, "Senior Brother, I have already made the decision to not pursue the matter with Bu Xingcong. Please don't interfere."
Zhuo Wanlian snorted coldly, and said, "That Prince of yours, since he has the guts to provoke the One-Line Sky, he is courting death. I don't have the time to stand up for him, but since He Yiming injured you, I naturally can't stand by and do nothing. Otherwise, how can I explain it to Master? "
After saying that, his figure moved, and he had already leaped out.
Mu Jintian's face changed unpredictably, and he hurriedly shouted, "Senior Brother, be careful."
A burst of laughter came from afar, "Junior Brother, don't worry. How can a newly promoted One-Line Sky be my opponent?"
Mu Jintian opened his mouth. Although He Yiming had just advanced to the One-Line Sky, his cultivation method was extremely strange. Not only was he proficient in the Five Elements Technique, but even the power of ice could not cause any damage to him. Therefore, at this moment, he was nervous, and there was always a trace of uneasiness lingering in his heart.
※ ※ ※
He Yiming and Zhan Tianfeng walked together, and in a moment, they had already arrived at the temple where Zhan Tianfeng lived.
The courtyard that Zhan Tianfeng lived in was actually not very big. The furnishings and decorations inside were very ordinary. Furthermore, they all looked rather old. He Yiming could even find some slight cracks in some places.
He glanced at Zhan Tianfeng in surprise. If he did not feel a stronger power from him, it was really hard for him to believe that a One-Line Sky master would live in this place.
Not to mention that this was one of the three strongest countries in the northwest, even in the Hengshan Mountains, where there was a serious shortage of various building resources, the houses of several elders were much better than here.
Zhan Tianfeng turned a blind eye to his gaze, and just said with a smile, "I have stayed in this courtyard for decades, and today is the first time I have gone out. But since there's an esteemed guest here, this old man naturally has to treat you well. "
He Yiming took the lead and walked into the backyard. He Yiming's gaze became more and more surprised.
In the backyard, there was a lush green vegetable field. This vegetable field was not the medicinal field in the Hengshan Mountains, and there were no rare medicinal herbs planted.
What was grown on it were all common vegetables that could be seen everywhere.
Zhan Tianfeng went to the field, and just like that, under He Yiming's surprised gaze, he picked some different kinds of vegetables.
He Yiming's heart was filled with a very strange feeling, and he could not help but ask, "Brother Zhan, the vegetables here were all planted by you?"
"Yes, all the vegetables here were personally selected by I, planted in the field, watered, and grew." Zhan Tianfeng's face had a trace of undisguised pride, and said, "I guarantee that the taste of these vegetables is so good that you have never tasted them before."
He Yiming wanted to say something but hesitated. Although he disapproved of this in his heart, when he thought about how even the Xiantian powerhouses of Hundred Scatter Heaven had their own unreasonable hobbies, then as a person of One-Line Sky, even if his hobbies were a little strange, it was still understandable.
Zhan Tianfeng washed the vegetables and went straight to the kitchen.
If there was any difference between this place and an ordinary house, it was undoubtedly this kitchen.
Here, at any time, there would be an ordinary servant who did not know how to use inner strength to serve. Their only task was to ensure that the fire in the kitchen was not extinguished, so that Zhan Tianfeng could use it at any time.
Zhan Tianfeng's hands were also quick, and he deftly washed the vegetables in his hands, cut them, and finished cooking.
His movements were as natural as moving clouds and flowing water. He Yiming could tell at a glance that Zhan Tianfeng was not putting on a show, but he did not know how many times he had cooked, so there was such a natural feeling.
After bringing the cooked dishes to the outer hall, the two sat down. Zhan Tianfeng held out a jar the size of a human head, and gently opened the lid. Suddenly, a fragrant smell rushed to the nose.
"Drink, eat …"
After Zhan Tianfeng finished these two sentences, he no longer cared about He Yiming, and poured himself a drink to enjoy.
He Yiming hesitated for a moment, and drank a mouthful of the wine in the jar. He only felt that it was sweet and smooth, and it moistened his throat. When he ate a mouthful of the dishes, it seemed to have a different flavor.
However, he could not be sure whether it was the texture of these dishes that was different, or the person who cooked them was different, that gave him such a strange feeling in his heart.
"Brother Zhan is really in a good mood." He Yiming said with a smile. Although he did not approve of this kind of life, he did not have the slightest intention of interfering.
Zhan Tianfeng laughed heartily, and said, "Brother He, I cultivate the Dao of Water and Wood. Ever since I set foot in the One-Line Sky sixty years ago, I have not made any progress in the past few decades. However, thirty years ago, I accidentally came to this place, and I had an epiphany. Since then, I have lived here leisurely, and did not care about the outside world. In the past thirty years, I lived here, and did everything by myself, and did not rely on other people for anything. Finally, I have gained something by chance. "
He Yiming was finally moved. He thought for a moment, then finally stood up, and bowed deeply to Zhan Tianfeng, and said, "Thank you for the pointers."
The Dao of the Five Elements was the Dao of Nature. Under the situation where Zhan Tianfeng's hard work did not bear fruit, he relaxed his mentality, opened up a small world here, and immersed himself in the Dao of Nature. If he still could not achieve something, it would be unreasonable.
However, this kind of cultivation method was not suitable for a young person like He Yiming.
Zhan Tianfeng waved his hand slightly, and said, "This is a minor Dao. Although it is somewhat useful, if compared to Brother He, it's a world of difference."
He Yiming's face reddened slightly. He was a family member, and he knew his own situation. Every time someone praised his talent, he didn't know how to respond.
Zhan Tianfeng drank another cup of home-brewed rice wine, and asked, "Brother He, do you know Mu Jintian's origin?"
He Yiming was slightly startled, and he answered, "Mu Jintian is the State Protector of Tu Fan Country, and he's known as the number one person below the One-Line Sky."
Zhan Tianfeng could not help but laugh, and said, "Mu Jintian is indeed the State Protector of Tu Fan Country, but his sect is not from the Northwest."
When He Yiming heard him mention it in such a serious manner, he understood that Mu Jintian's origin was something that even this old man was afraid of.
Zhan Tianfeng looked to the north, and said, "In the past, when I was young, I traveled the world. After entering the northern border, I fought with a powerhouse from a certain sect. Because the powerhouse from that sect lived in the cold environment of the northern border for a long time, they did not cultivate the basic five elements, but a special ice power. "
He Yiming immediately thought of the situation when he fought with Mu Jintian, but when it came to the ice power, Mu Jintian was obviously inferior, and it was far less effective than the liquid in the green bottle.
If Mu Jintian knew that He Yiming compared his cultivation method with the innate ten thousand year ice essence, he would definitely vomit blood. Moreover, if the news of this item being in his possession leaked out, it was guaranteed that the powerhouses of the northern border would snatch it away at all costs.
"Brother Zhan, you specifically mentioned this matter, is Mu Jintian's sect incomparably powerful?" He Yiming asked in a deep voice.
"Yes, his sect is indeed powerful, and it's the number one sect in the northern border." Zhan Tianfeng said solemnly, "You defeated this person today and advanced to the One-Line Sky. Even if he did not blame you, the powerhouses in his sect may not have such self-restraint. If they come to seek revenge, it will be troublesome. "
Countless thoughts flashed through He Yiming's mind in an instant. He was not worried about himself, but his family. If a powerhouse that he could not resist came to the He Clan Manor and started a massacre, it would be too late for him to regret.
As if reading his mind, Zhan Tianfeng comforted him, "Brother He, in fact, you don't have to worry. Although the number one sect in the northern border is powerful, it may not be able to defeat our northwestern countries, and it's impossible for them to make a big move for this. As long as you don't easily set foot in the northern country in the future, you can rest easy. "
Only then did He Yiming relax slightly. However, all of a sudden, there was a slight change in the expressions of the two of them.
This was because they sensed at the same time that in the distance, a burst of cold air soared into the sky.
It was a power of the same origin as Mu Jintian's, but in comparison, it was much more powerful.
He Yiming looked at Zhan Tianfeng suspiciously.
However, the old man's expression became abnormally ugly. He had just said that he could rest easy, but before he could finish his words, someone had come knocking on his door. Even if his face was twice as thick, at this moment, his old face was slightly red, and it was difficult for him to justify himself.
