♂?，，

  “……”

  “……”

  "Cough cough."

  After a while, Xu Yidou coughed awkwardly and said: "It seems that Wang Tingxian's nephew no longer has this idea. Since so, we will take our leave."

  Xu Yan furrowed her brow, glanced at Wang Ting, and let out a cold snort. From her expression and tone, it was not hard to see that she seemed to be blaming him for being ungrateful.

  Wang Ting ignored Xu Yidou, Xu Yan and Zhao Dongqi, turned around and walked directly towards the light pillar in the center of the temple that was responsible for spatial transmission.

  Ready?

  No preparation is needed.

  Young Master!

  Seeing Wang Ting seemingly determined to take on the task, Zhao Dongqi hastily intercepted him: "Young Master, this task is truly too dangerous. Having just been promoted to a formal swordsman, it's not worth taking this risk. Although this task is only at the swordsman level and any swordsman-level cultivator can take it, ordinary swordsmen, even if they're lucky enough to get one or two Star Crystal pieces, will have them taken away by force, and may even invite fatal disaster. The most dangerous part of the entire task isn't the ferocious beasts, nor is it the task process itself, but rather the people competing with you for the Star Crystals."

  "Huh?"

  Seeing the dispute between Wang Ting and Zhao Dongqi, Xu Yidu's heart slightly paused, a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth: "Wang Ting, my young nephew, are you going to the Temple for a mission? Hehe, indeed heroes emerge in their youth. Zhao Dongqi, why block him? If you're worried, how about letting him join our Xu family team? As long as you pay enough gold coins, I'll guarantee his safety."

  "It's nothing." Zhao Dongqi glanced at Xu Yidou and continued to block Wang Ting: "Young Master..."

  "What am I doing that requires you to come over and gesture? Get out!"

  Wang Ting's expression turned cold, and he shouted loudly as he rushed towards the light pillar.

  "Master, no!"

  Zhao Dongqi let out a shout and was about to intercept him, but as soon as the two of them made contact, Wang Ting suddenly struck out with his hand, tapping the acupoint on Zhao's hand. His index finger trembled slightly, and in an instant, Zhao felt like his body didn't belong to him anymore, completely losing control over it.

  In this case, he could only watch as Wang Ting stepped into the white light column, and under the magical power of the white light column, was transmitted away without a trace.

  "No!"

  It took Zhao Dongqi a full ten seconds to recover, but by then it was too late to stop Wang Ting.

  "No! We must go and tell Master at once, so he can send someone in to find Young Master. We can't let anything happen to him."

  With that in mind, Zhao Dongqi couldn't be bothered to greet Xu Yidou and the others, and soon left the range of divine light, rushed out of the temple, and went in the direction where Wang's family was.

  This scene fell into the eyes of Xu Yidou and others, which made them somewhat surprised.

  Especially the great swordsman Xubie Shan was slightly surprised: "This kid is really good at swordsmanship, his grasp of the meridians is so accurate, he controlled Zhao Dongqi's body in one move, cutting off his sensory nerves. Such precise swordsmanship and eyesight, even ordinary high-ranking swordsmen can't do it."

  "Is this hand really that powerful?"

  A middle-aged swordsman who looked like he was in his late twenties exclaimed in surprise.

  "Naturally, this technique not only tests one's eyesight and hand strength, but also requires an understanding of the human body's meridians. These are all subjects that we studied in elementary school, yet there are hardly any who can actually apply them in practice. Just by using this single finger strike technique, I can tell that the news from the Xuanzhong High-Level Swordsmanship Academy is true."

  "This can't be, the news from the Xuanzhong Advanced Swordsmen Academy is too unrealistic. A high-ranking martial artist can defeat a mid-ranking swordsman? That's a mid-ranking swordsman, a strong expert like that, even our Xu family would try to win them over with great effort. This young kid can defeat an expert of this level?"

  "An empty hole doesn't invite the wind, alright, talking too much is useless. We've already prepared everything we need to prepare. Let's transmit from the divine light immediately and collect as many star crystals as possible to exchange for treasures. With these treasures, who knows, our Xu family might produce several more swordsmen-level experts."

  "Yes."

  Several swordsmen who followed Xu Bie Shan hastily responded.

  "Although Xingchenjing is important, all of you are the pillars of my Xu family. I still hope that you will prioritize your own safety first."

  Xu Yidou said this, and at this time he naturally did not forget to buy people's hearts.

  "I can handle these."

  "Thank you for your concern, elder."

  "Alright, let's go."

  Xu Bie Shan, this great swordsman-level strong man, with a wave of his hand, had already brought two high-ranking swordsmen and three mid-ranking swordsmen, a total of six people, towards the divine light. In just a moment, they had all disappeared from everyone's line of sight.

  Seeing Xu Bieshan and others leave, Xu Yidou smiled at Xu Yan: "Yan'er, don't worry, with Grandfather personally taking action, we will definitely be able to collect enough Star Crystal to exchange for suitable Heavenly Material and Earthly Treasure, helping you break through to become a formal Swordsman. Once you become a formal Swordsman, after marrying into the Xi family, there won't be many people who can contend with you for power."

  "Yes, thank you Father Cheng, I will definitely work hard and strive for more support from the Feng family for our family."

  "Haha, it's my daughter, in this regard, I naturally believe."

  Xu Yan nodded slightly with some delight, and after a moment, she looked again at the area shrouded in divine light, her expression somewhat puzzled: "Father, is that rumor true? Did this Wang Ting really defeat a mid-tier swordsman at the Xuanzhong Advanced Swordsmanship Academy?"

  "It's probably true, he is now a formal swordsman. A formal swordsman defeating an intermediate swordsman is not impossible, but don't be too disappointed. The intermediate swordsman he defeated has a high status and is now looking for trouble with him. Since this kid doesn't know how to behave, we might as well ignore him and let him deal with the royal family on his own."

  Xu Yan nodded slightly.

  However, looking towards the divine light that disappeared in Wang Ting's direction, there was still a hint of shock.

  "Let's go."

  "Uh-huh."

  Xu Yan said.

  However, when she turned around, her eyes were sharp and she saw a line of people not far away. In this line of people, the Marquis Xi Fang, who needed the entire Xu family to curry favor with him, was among them.

  At this moment, Viscount Xi Fang is just an accompanying identity, and the one who is really responsible for entertaining these noble guests is none other than the lord of Bishui City, Viscount Xi Mang, a figure who can be said to be the uncrowned king of Bishui City.

  "Father is Viscount Xi Man, shall we go over and get familiar with him?"

  Seeing that row of extraordinary demeanor and luxurious attire, a hint of envy and yearning appeared in Xu Yan's eyes, and she asked softly.

  "Think you can just waltz in here? Old Man Baisan still has some clout, but we're not even worthy of being noticed by the other side. Do you know who that person is who's accompanying Lord Xi?"

  "Who is it?"

  "Jing Feng, the great swordsman Jing Feng, is also the fifth disciple of the prestigious Xuan Ming Academy's president. As a member of the top-tier family in the kingdom, the Jing family, he is someone who even the Viscount Haberu would need to treat with respect."

  As he spoke, Xu Yi's expression changed from one of superiority to one of humility and admiration: "The Jing family is one of the largest families in our kingdom. It seems that this group task has indeed attracted a lot of attention. Not only has the Jing family arrived, but I heard that members of the Haidon family had already taken the lead earlier today. The elite members of the Lei Ting and Fei Long families are also on their way to Bi Shui City. These families are the pillars of our kingdom, and it is their existence that supports the prosperity of Tai Xuan Kingdom. They are truly the great families, the noble aristocrats."

  "A big family, a noble family..."

  Xu Yan's lovely face was filled with envy and admiration: "When will our Wang family have such glory and honor?"
