When Ye Lingtian returned to the Zheng family compound, he picked up the hatchet and continued chopping firewood.
Compared with yesterday, his movements today are slower, his wrists are slightly reversed from time to time, and he insists on not using the knife.
Knowing that Ye Lingtian was thinking about martial arts, Zheng Xueyu kept silent and didn't even interrupt Ye Lingtian during dinner.
Time passed by in thinking, and when Zheng Xueyu woke up to make breakfast the next morning, she found that Ye Lingtian was still standing there chopping firewood, with a somewhat worried look on her brows.
She quietly walked into the kitchen and made a breakfast before interrupting Ye Lingtian.
"It's going to be the arena of life and death soon, and it's not right to not rest."
Ye Lingtian weighed the cold light in his hand, turned his head and smiled at Zheng Xueyu: "It's okay, I'm used to it."
Zheng Xueyu was taken aback, and asked in a low voice, "Scenes like this often happen in dreams?"
Ye Lingtian entered the room and put the cold glow on the dining table, not so much to explain to Zheng Xueyu, but to reassure Zheng Xueyu.
"At that time, I was not ready for anything. The master in the dream threw me into a primitive jungle full of dangers. Every time I experience it, it will be like this."
"It's more appropriate to describe the situation in the dream as a narrow escape."
"Through this occasion like today, I am not only not nervous at all, but a little excited."
Speaking of this, Ye Lingtian held the cold light tightly, with excitement and madness in his eyes.
"This is the first time I've faced a Huang-level spiritual cultivator after waking up. While I can appreciate the monk's cultivation, I can also verify the sword technique in my dream. Thinking about it makes people look forward to it."
Hearing what Ye Lingtian said, Zheng Xueyu groaned: "You can only be a master if you endure hardships. I suddenly feel that Shunzi will not only lose in this battle, but will also lose very miserably."
Ye Lingtian drank the millet porridge in the bowl in one gulp, and said firmly, "He won't lose very badly, because he doesn't know how he lost."
If the rest of the Zheng family heard Ye Lingtian's words, how many people would laugh out loud.
No, when the Zheng family learned that Ye Lingtian and Shunzi were going to have a life-and-death fight, many of them had already lost their teeth.
Others don't know what's going on with Shunzi, so don't the rest of the Zheng family know?
Shunzi is just Zheng Xiaoxiao's servant in name, but actually resembles Zheng Xiaoxiao's fiancé.
Zheng Banshan had difficulty accepting this kind of relationship at first, but later seeing that Zheng Xiaoxiao was determined, he could only let it go.
In order to let Shunzi take the position, Zheng Banshan has not secretly given Shunzi any trouble over the years.
Perhaps because of the long contact, Zheng Banshan has become more and more fond of Shunzi.
Facts have proved that Shunzi's cultivation talent is only as high as that of Zheng Banshan when he was young. From this perspective, Zheng Xiaoxiao's vision is more reliable than her temper.
Zheng Family Courtyard, Yanwutai.
The sun shines on the snow, shining brightly.
The continuous days of heavy snow covered the pines and cypresses around the Yanwu Stage with a layer of brilliant white.
The Zheng family's descendants and servants arrived here early, so the previously quiet Martial Arts Stage was very noisy at the moment.
The Zheng family hasn't staged such a big show as the life and death arena for many years.
It was hard for the Zheng family to believe that the two servants who had just been promoted to the Huang level spiritual cultivation would set the stage for life and death.
In Xianmen, it is not difficult to become a Huang-level spiritual cultivator, but in Shangyin City, it is difficult to become a Huang-level spiritual cultivator.
I don't know how many people have worked hard to achieve a breakthrough in the realm of cultivation.
According to the rules of the Eastern Continent, once one breaks through to the Huang-level spiritual cultivation, one is truly a master.
After finally getting to this point, who has nothing to do with their own lives?
"Blessed by God, Ye Lingtian managed to become a monk as a servant, so he challenged Brother Shunzi, just looking for death!"
"It's a pity, not everyone can become a Huang-level spiritual cultivator."
Servant A of the Zheng family still has a conscience, and feels that Ye Lingtian is not worth it.
It's not too late for a gentleman to take revenge for ten years, how good is it to find Shunzi's bad luck after two years?
This Ye Lingtian, like the eldest lady, has a hard and smelly temper.
"It's okay if he doesn't initiate a challenge? If Ye Lingtian doesn't trouble Brother Shunzi, Brother Shunzi won't let him go."
Servant B of the Zheng family curled his lips, and said decisively, "Ye Lingtian was wrong from the very beginning! If you hang out with the eldest lady, you will always be enraged. Choice is always more important than hard work!"
Servant A opened his mouth to say something, looked around, and then swallowed back the words.
Patting his conscience, he said that the so-called patriarchs and elders sitting on the podium not far away did not contribute as much to the Zheng family as the former team leader Zheng Zitian did.
It's just that talking about it in private may usher in a flogging, and shouting in front of everyone, is it different from courting death?
The direct line headed by Zheng Xiaoxiao sat on the east side of Yanwutai.
As for whether Shunzi can win in this life-and-death arena...
This is not what Zheng Xiaoxiao thinks about.
What she was thinking about was what kind of expression Zheng Xueyu would have after Ye Lingtian fell down.
Do you think your servant will be able to counterattack when he reaches the Huang-level divine cultivation? Do you think you can sit back and relax if you get on the line with the Great Elder?
Zheng Xueyu, Zheng Xueyu, you have been stupid since you were a child, and you never thought that today is even worse.
Who doesn't know that in the Zheng family's high-level power struggle, the great elder is gradually declining, and he entrusts Zheng Zitian's comprehension experience to him, pure meat buns beat dogs!
After killing Ye Lingtian at Yanwutai, I will take turns to toss you, making you even worse than those lowly maids.
As Zheng Xueyu's father, Zheng Banshan also had no doubts about whether Shunzi could win Ye Lingtian.
Shunzi is now making great strides towards the middle stage of Huang-level spiritual cultivation, and the combat skills he practiced are also the essence of the Zheng family's combat skills.
If Ye Lingtian can't be taken down, not only Shunzi will have to dig a hole to bury himself, but Zheng Banshan will also have to jump off the tower of Shangyin City.
Seeing the deep worry in the elder's eyes, Zheng Banshan smiled triumphantly.
Under this psychological effect, he turned his head and smiled at the gray-haired patriarch Zheng Dongfang: "Which side do you favor more in this battle?"
What are the First Elder and the Second Elder busy with recently? How could the patriarch Zheng Dongfang not know?
Zheng Dongfang was very dissatisfied with the current situation of the family, but as the patriarch, he was originally elected by everyone as a shield after Zheng Zitian committed suicide, so how could he have any say in family affairs?
"Sunja, of course."
Speaking of this, Zheng Dongfang whispered: "Second Elder, few Zheng family newcomers have jumped out in recent years, everyone knows that Shunzi has excellent qualifications."
"But this Ye Lingtian is also a material that can be made. Without anyone's guidance, he can break through the yellow-level spiritual cultivation..."
Before he finished speaking, Zheng Dongfang saw that Zheng Banshan's old face darkened, and quickly changed his mouth: "Life and death are determined in the arena, Ye Lingtian and Shunzi have made up their minds, let's see how they interpret the Zheng family's blood and courage on the martial arts arena. .”
Zheng Banshan glanced at Zheng Dongfang, and replied lightly: "The Zheng family needs a life-and-death competition to raise everyone's spirits."
"Recently, newcomers can't come out. In the final analysis, they have lost the courage of their ancestors who are not afraid of everything and the blood of facing difficulties."
The primary responsibility for why the Zheng family is not energetic lies with you. Look at how you and Zheng Sinan have tossed the Zheng family over the past few years.
Even though his heart was full of dissatisfaction, Zheng Dongfang didn't say it out, just smiled and said: "The second elder is right."
While the big brothers of the Zheng family were whispering innocuous words, a servant ran over in a panic, and whispered in Zheng Banshan's ear.
Zheng Banshan's eyes lit up, and he immediately leaned into Zheng Dongfang's ear, and said excitedly: "Liao Xuanyuan, the fifth elder of Wandantang headquarters, brought someone to see him."
Zheng Dongfang suddenly got up: "Where is the person?"
"It's just outside the gate." Zheng Banshan said with a smile.
"Hurry up to meet him!" Before Zheng Dongfang finished speaking, he was already three feet away.
All the bosses on the podium hurried towards the gate.
At the gate of the Zheng family compound, Liao Xuanyuan's expression was a little gloomy.
When Yuan Wencai first talked to him, Liao Xuanyuan really didn't have much interest in Shang Yincheng and his party.
After knowing what happened to Wan Yanyue, Liao Xuanyuan became angry.
Ask Wan Yanyue to work as a maid in Zheng's courtyard? What a Zheng family, what do you think of yourself?
Even the middle-level fairy sect might not be able to utter such wild words.
When they arrived in Shangyin City, if Wanyanyue hadn't been so talkative, Liao Xuanyuan would have really planned to kick the Zheng residence's house number to pieces.
Seeing Liao Xuanyuan, Zheng Dongfang stepped forward a few steps, and said cheerfully: "Thanks to Wandantang for looking up to him, Dongfang has never greeted him far away, please forgive me."
Liao Xuanyuan suppressed his anger and smiled lightly: "The Patriarch Dongfang is serious. As the representative of Shangyin City, Wandantang's property in Shangyin City will need to be taken care of by the Patriarch Dongfang."
All the elders of the Zheng family present had charming smiles on their faces, none of them took Liao Xuanyuan's words seriously.
It is true that the Zheng family is one of the top ten aristocratic families, but it is not comparable to other aristocratic families at all.
The strongest person with the highest cultivation in the family is not even a Xuan-level spiritual cultivation, which is flawed.
If the other families didn't think highly of it and kept the Zheng family's position for life, who knows what kind of downfall the Zheng family has become?
Therefore, not to mention the second-ranked Wanyan family, even the ninth-ranked Murong family, the Zheng family could not afford to offend.
Zheng Dongfang's ability to pull relations and engage in confrontation is poor, and the scene is beautiful, so he quickly waved his hands: "Elder Liao is serious, even if the strength of the Zheng family is not good, the kindness of the previous family, the Zheng family will remember."
"Don't say that there will be no problems at the branch of Wandantang in Shangyin City. If there is a problem, the Zheng family will be the first to come forward."
"Elder Liao, please!"
Zheng Dongfang made a gesture of invitation, and carefully greeted Liao Xuanyuan to enter the door.
Zheng Banshan and Zheng Sinan respectively led the three elders to chat affectionately with the Wandantang elites behind Liao Xuanyuan, as if these visitors were relatives they hadn't seen for many years.
Seeing that Zheng Dongfang was about to lead himself to the welcoming hall, Liao Xuanyuan hurriedly said: "I heard that there is a life-and-death competition in the Zheng family's compound today, I wonder if there is such a thing?"
The story of the life and death arena spread so quickly? Zheng Dongfang was taken aback for a moment, and replied respectfully: "Under the strong request of the two newly promoted Huang-level spiritual cultivators of the Zheng family, we had no choice but to agree to the life-and-death competition."
Liao Xuanyuan smiled meaningfully: "The children of the Zheng family are as enthusiastic as they were back then!"
