Travel through the heavens

Chapter 272 Kill One First

Xuanyuan Qingfeng only understood the last few sentences of Fang Muye's long speech, and was confused by the rest.

She didn't understand how reading could lead to the realm of celestial phenomena, or even the realm of immortals on earth. She didn't understand what all this had to do with her mediocre father, not to mention that he, who could only read, had no ability to change the current situation in Huishan.

Xuanyuan Jingcheng never expected that his biggest secret had been seen through by Fang Muye. Although he was surprised, he felt that a land immortal should have such ability.

Xuanyuan Jingcheng did not comment on Fang Muye's last proposal, but just asked: "Excuse me, Master Wen, is this your own idea or was it instructed by His Royal Highness the Prince of Beiliang?"

Fang Muye replied: "It was my own idea."

Xuanyuan Jingcheng asked again: "What conditions does Master Wen have?"

Hearing this, Xuanyuan Qingfeng was stunned.

Yes, we are not related at all, so how could he help me for no reason? Before, I was so focused on whether I could escape this disaster that I forgot to ask him what the conditions were.

I once heard a saying that goes, "A man's talent weighs thousands of pounds, but it is not as good as a woman's chest." Although it sounds harsh, it does make some sense.

This bastard had been flirting with me verbally many years ago, saying that my figure was "as slim as a willow and as slender as a water snake, and as curvy as a wasp." This time he wanted to help me deal with Xuanyuan Dapan in the Tianxiang realm. Could it be that he wanted to take the opportunity to come up with some improper ideas? If so, wouldn't that be luring a tiger in and repelling a wolf?

She glanced at Fang Muye and sighed in her heart. He was quite handsome and a land immortal. It would be better to devote herself to him than to be taken away by that old beast Xuanyuan Dapan.

Even if Fang Muye was a land immortal, how could he know Xuanyuan Qingfeng's complicated thoughts? He smiled and said to Xuanyuan Jingcheng, "I heard that the Xuanyuan family has a rich collection of books. There are countless secret manuals and classics that other sects regard as treasures in the Wending Pavilion in Guniu Dagang, Huishan. In terms of the number of books, it is only inferior to the Tingchao Pavilion in the Northern Liang Armory. If you want to talk about conditions, then wait until I kill Xuanyuan Dapan, and Mr. Shouzhuo will let me enter the Wending Pavilion to read books for a few days. How about that in exchange?"

How could Xuanyuan Jingcheng not know that no matter how many and precious the books in the Wending Pavilion were, they were of no importance to the immortals on earth. This was clearly an excuse made out of unwillingness to repay a favor and consideration for the face of the recipient. He immediately bowed his hands, his gratitude overflowing with words: "Then I'll have to trouble you, Master Wen."

However, Xuanyuan Qingfeng next to him looked shy and bit his lips secretly.

Fang Muye raised his lips and said, "Mr. Shouzhuo, once Xuanyuan Dapan dies, Xuanyuan Jingyi and Xuanyuan Jingxuan will be a problem. Why don't I get rid of them as well to avoid civil strife in the Xuanyuan family?"

Xuanyuan Jingcheng frowned slightly and pondered in silence.

He recalled the heartwarming scene when the three brothers stood on tiptoe on the railing of Wending Pavilion when they were children. He clearly remembered that he said he wanted to be a famous official who would go down in history as a minister of state. His second brother said he wanted to revive the family's reputation and surpass the Wu family's sword tomb. His third brother declared that he wanted to be a warrior like Wang Xianzhi, who could smash any immortal from Mount Longhu into a meat pie with one punch. The three brothers were as close as brothers at that time, but they drifted further and further apart as they grew up, becoming like strangers.

At this moment, an untimely voice called out from outside the building: "Brother."

A moment later, the tall and strong Xuanyuan Jingxuan, dressed in gorgeous clothes, walked straight in. He put his hands on the edge of his red agate belt and looked at people with an arrogant feeling as if he looked down on everyone. Even though he should call Xuanyuan Jingcheng in front of him "big brother" when he entered the Imperial Book Tower, he still refused to restrain his arrogance.

"Qingfeng is here too?" Xuanyuan Jingxuan was a little surprised to see Xuanyuan Qingfeng.

He glanced at Fang Muye who was standing opposite Xuanyuan Jingcheng, not paying any attention to him. He turned to look at Xuanyuan Qingfeng who was standing by the door and said with a chuckle, "Qingfeng, I heard that you were going down the mountain but were stopped by your second uncle? Third uncle is going to persuade you. The Xuanyuan family has raised you for so many years, and it's time to repay the family. Besides, you followed the ancestor, and you can choose any advanced martial arts. One day, you may be able to enter the first rank, which is a great blessing."

Listening to Xuanyuan Jingxuan talking, if it were before, Xuanyuan Qingfeng might have argued a few words, but now she was so confident that she was too lazy to respond.

Xuanyuan Jingcheng said softly: "Jingxuan, you should know that Xuanyuan Dapan has no intention of giving up."

Xuanyuan Jingxuan said unconcernedly: "The ancestor wanted to take in all the girls of this generation, but so what? He is in the Celestial Realm. With him, the Xuanyuan family will have an unparalleled reputation, and Huishan will have a foundation and inheritance."

Xuanyuan Jingcheng murmured, "You are all wrong."

"Wrong? Big brother, do you know what realm I am in now after receiving the guidance of my ancestors and using elixirs to fill my Qi Sea?"

Xuanyuan Jingxuan laughed loudly and answered himself: "Zhixuan Realm! In Huishan, except for the old ancestor, I am already the best. Looking at the whole martial arts world, I am also the best. The old ancestor has said that from tomorrow, the position of the head of the Xuanyuan family will be officially entrusted to me. Big brother, after Qingfeng entered the old ancestor's room, your big family lineage will have no support. From now on, your little network of contacts will be handed over to me. I have more connections than the second brother, and I won't make it too difficult for you."

Xuanyuan Jingcheng said calmly: "You have been waiting for this day for a long time, right? Jingxuan, you should have waited a little longer, but it's a pity that you have always been a little impatient since you were a child. For some things, don't rush to make a conclusion before the dust settles. It's not good to do so."

Xuanyuan Jingxuan seemed to have heard a great joke. He just stopped laughing, but couldn't help laughing again. He put his hands on the agate belt, looked directly at his frail elder brother Xuanyuan Jingcheng, and said sarcastically: "Brother, what do you think I should wait for? Wait for you to become the head of the family with your kindness and morality? Wait for Qingfeng to go to Guniujiang to please the ancestors and support your eldest house? Brother, you are really confused because of reading. Since you can't figure it out, I will go talk to my eldest sister-in-law. She looks down on you so much, and she has had a hard time these years. As her uncle, I should take good care of her."

Xuanyuan Jingcheng looked at Xuanyuan Jingxuan who looked disapproving and arrogant, sighed softly, then bowed to Fang Muye and said, "Thank you for your help, Master Wen."

Fang Muye laughed: "No trouble, it's just a Finger Profound Realm built up with elixirs, it won't take much effort."

Xuanyuan Jingxuan was stunned for a moment, then he looked at Fang Muye straight in the eye.

But suddenly a drop of tea flew out of the teacup in front of Fang Muye. Fang Muye stretched out his finger and flicked it. The water drop seemed to be moving slowly, but in the blink of an eye it was in front of Xuanyuan Jingxuan and quietly shot into his heart.

Xuanyuan Jingxuan, who had already reached the Profound Realm, opened his eyes wide, his face full of disbelief and surprise, but he had lost his life in an instant, and a thin layer of ice had formed on his body.
