nThree days later, in the Nie family’s residence, Su Yi was seen sitting cross-legged in a room. After that, he slowly opened his eyes and exhaled a breath of fresh air.

nHe felt the condition of his body and discovered that after his spiritual root was upgraded to high-grade, his breathing and cultivation became even faster. His body felt light, as if his muscles and bone marrow had been cleansed.

nThese past few days, for some unknown reason, Nie Ling did not come to look for him. It was as if she had disappeared after that night.

nHowever, even if Nie Ling did not come to look for him, he could still let Little Xie come out occasionally to get some fresh air.

nAt this moment, Little Xie was still floating in the air with a book in her hands, reading it with great interest.

nJust when she was getting engrossed in reading, Su Yi had finished his cultivation. After tidying up his appearance, he said lightly, “Little Xie, get ready to go out. Quickly return to the dagger.”

nHearing this, Little Xie’s expression, which was originally filled with interest, suddenly changed. She looked at Su Yi pitifully and said indifferently, “big bad guy, why don’t you wait a little longer? One hour, ah, no, half an hour is fine too.”

nHer small hands held the book tightly as if she was extremely reluctant to part with it. If it was any other time, Su Yi might have waited for her to finish reading it.

nHowever, now, it was the time that he had agreed upon with Nie Ling’s grandfather, Nie Dingtian. If he delayed any longer, he did not know what Nie Ling would think of him.

n“Forget it. I’ll keep this book in the seal space. You can read it again when you have time in the future.”

nAs he spoke, he snatched the book from Little Xie’s hands. When he saw the title of the book, his face immediately turned black.

n‘The story between the third elder of Sword Pavilion and the Heaven’s Favorite Su Yi.’

nHe held back the urge to tear the book apart on the spot and looked at Little Xie with a dark face.

n“Now, you’re not allowed to read it anymore!”

nAfter he said that, he did not care about Little Xie’s teary eyes. He moved his fire element true essence energy and a burning sensation came from his hands. He burned the book.

nAt the same time, Su Yi secretly made up his mind to find the person who wrote such a ridiculous book and beat him up.

nLittle did he know that the person who wrote such a book had already been visited by the Sword Pavilion.

nRight now, in Central Plains, people have only heard about the book, but no one had seen the person who wrote the book.

nAfter burning the book, he picked up Little Xie and chased her back into the Dragon Blood Spirit-breaking Blade. Then, he walked out of the room.

nWhen he arrived at the main hall of the Nie family, he saw that Nie Dingtian, Nie Ling, and her parents were already waiting for him.

nSeeing that Su Yi had arrived, they greeted each other. Then, he came to elder Nie’s side and asked, “Elder Nie, when do we leave?”

nNie Dingtian waved his hand and said indifferently, “no rush. Wait a moment.”

nOld Master Nie looked at Nie Ling, Nie Ling’s parents, and the others.

nNie Ling was saying goodbye to her parents when Nie Longxiang came to Su Yi’s side and patted his shoulder.

n“Little friend Su, I heard about the matter between you and my father. I’ll leave my daughter to you.”

nNie Longxiang’s expression was a little strange when he said this. Moreover, why did it feel like an old father had entrusted his daughter’s life to him?

nSu Yi was stunned when he heard this. He could only nod his head foolishly and confirm.

n“Don’t worry, Uncle Nie. When the time comes, I will definitely send the complete and intact fellow Daoist Nie back to the Nie family.”

nAfter Nie Ling said her goodbyes, Nie Dingtian walked forward to look at Nie Ling’s parents and gave them some instructions.

n“This trip will be as short as a few months or as long as half a year. Therefore, during this period of time, our Nie family’s business should be as stable as possible. Don’t be in a hurry to develop. I’m afraid that when the time comes, some people won’t be able to wait to make a move on the business.”

nHearing this, Nie Longxiang’s gaze was sharp as he nodded his head and replied, “let us go, father. I will definitely take care of the business. Father, you should take good care of yourself during this trip.”

n“Okay.”

nNie Dingtian lightly replied. Then, he waved his hand and shouted, “girl, kid Su Yi, let’s go!”

nAfter saying this, the two of them followed Nie Dingtian out of the Nie family’s mansion.

n…

nCentral Plains City was very big, and there were many aristocratic families. However, not all aristocratic families were qualified to participate in the ancient ruins.

nAlthough the Nie family was a trading family, with an existence like Nie Dingtian, if you said that you were not qualified to participate, then who was?

nMoreover, since ancient times, the Nie family had a trace of information about the ancient ruins.

nAs early as when Nie Dingtian was young, he had entered the ancient ruins. At that time, he and other capable people from the same era had only explored the outer area of the ancient ruins.

nThis time, the ancient ruins had been opened. They had to go deep into the ancient ruins.

nAt the same time, not only was Nie Dingtian having these thoughts, but also the other old monsters.

nAt the same time, there were also some elders in various parts of the great desolate region. Behind them, one or two young people followed the elders and slowly headed in a certain direction.

nIn Central Plains City, Su Yi followed Nie Dingtian to the largest teleportation array in Central Plains City.

n“Senior Nie, are we going to take that teleportation array?”

nLooking at the teleportation array in front of him, he could not help but ask.

nThe teleportation array could go to many places, but it was also a place where cultivators gathered. Could it be that the ancient ruins were in those secret cultivation places?

nHe thought of the forbidden place in Demon Subduing Mountain. That time, it was a secret cultivation place, right?

nUnexpectedly, Old Master Nie patted his head and said, “are you stupid? How can the place that the teleportation array can reach be called an ancient ruins?”

nAfter saying this, the old man rolled his eyes at him. Nie Ling could not help but cover her mouth and laugh.

nNie Ling went forward and looked at Su Yi gently.

n“Fellow Daoist Su, don’t mind him. Grandfather is like this. Although his personality is a little strange, he doesn’t have any bad intentions.”

n“Is, is that so?”

nAfter hearing what Nie Ling said, he replied with uncertainty. At the same time, his right hand touched his handsome head. At this moment, he could still feel a faint pain coming from his head.

nAt this time, Nie Dingtian had already walked into the teleportation array and urged him, “stop wasting time. Hurry up. I don’t want to meet those old guys on the way.”

nHearing this, he and Nie Ling walked into the teleportation array in Central Plains City. Nie Dingtian waved his hand and chose his destination.

n“Target, the northern region of the great desolate.”

nAfter successfully locking on to his destination, the teleportation array began to operate slowly. One by one, the array patterns began to spread out.

nThe three people in the array transformed into a streak of light that shot through the sky and headed toward the northern region of the great desolate.
