Chapter 47 Chapter 47 Settlement

"Crunch." A wooden door was slowly pushed open, a ray of sunlight spread through the crack of the door, and finally formed a slender line of light on the ground. As the wooden door was fully pushed open, the light expanded rapidly, and several figures of different lengths elongated by the sunlight came in, and an old man in the lead glanced across the spacious small pavilion, and said with a smile: "Xiao Yan, From now on, the residence of the four of you will be here." "Four people?" Hearing this, Hu Jia, who was following behind, couldn't help being startled, and immediately said in astonishment: "Elder Su, did you let me and Xun'er, two girls, live with their two big men?"

"Hehe, girl Hujia, this pavilion is so big, there are many rooms, and you are not allowed to sleep in the same bed, why are you in a hurry?" Elder Su smiled and shook his head, looked at the four people, and said: "By the way, Do you have another team member?" "Uh..." Hearing Elder Su's question, Xiao Yan froze and shrugged, really not knowing how to answer. "Run away... seeing the strength of the Heisha team, so he abandoned us." Hu Jia spread his hands and sneered. The behavior of abandoning his companions and running away alone made him extremely disdainful.

"Run away? What a short-sighted person." Elder Su was also startled, then shook his head and said with a faint smile. "From now on, the four of you will belong to the inner court. Let me remind you that in this inner court, unless you are extremely powerful, you will not be easy to mix by yourself...Because of the circumstances, the inner court Those old students in the courtyard are also dividing their own territory, these things, I think you will meet in the near future." Elder Su pondered. "There are still these things in the inner courtyard? Don't you all ban them?" Hu Jia asked, frowning slightly.

"Hehe, why is it banned? This kind of competitiveness is what our inner court needs. If you want not to be bullied, then you have to work hard to improve your own strength, otherwise, everything is out of the question. The strong are respected, and always The main theme of this world, we don't want the inner courtyard to become a carefree ivory tower, because in this environment, no real strong can emerge." Elder Su said calmly. Hearing Elder Su's explanation, Hu Jia had no choice but to pouted. Xiao Yan and Wu Hao nodded in agreement. They have all experienced real training and are very clear about what kind of environment they can be born in. A real strongman.

"So, let you live together, in fact, I want you to form a team. In the hunting competition, you must have understood how strong a team can produce?" Elder Su laughed: "And Starting today, I hope that the four of you will be a team that will face all difficulties together and never give up. If you can do this, then life in this inner courtyard will be much easier. No matter how powerful you are, it’s not as good as a team, right?” "I don't care. I have no objection to Xiao Yan's strength." Wu Hao hesitated for a moment, nodded slightly, and said calmly. Xun'er chuckled lightly, being able to be with Xiao Yan, he naturally would not have any objections.

"Oh, well, being with this guy, although I don't want to admit it, I really need to feel more secure." Hu Jia spread her hands, nodded helplessly, and said. "You are relying on me..." Seeing the behavior of the three of them, Xiao Yan couldn't help but smiled wryly. However, despite the expression on his face, there was indeed a strange feeling in his heart. During the past three years of experience, he was all alone. Perhaps it was because of his temper. However, now that Wu Hao and the three of them are like this, handing over the command of the team to him is undoubtedly a kind of trust and recognition for him. This feeling is something that Xiao Yan never had before when he was alone.

"Hehe, it's best if you can do this and that." Seeing that the four of them formed a team without any gaps, Elder Su nodded in satisfaction and waved his hand: "Okay, it's getting late, you guys put the houses together Pack it up, and then rest for the night, starting tomorrow, you can take a look in the inner courtyard at will, I am sure you will not be disappointed here." "Is there any training course?" Hearing this, Hu Jia asked hastily. "The inner courtyard doesn't need that kind of thing. As long as you have enough "fire energy", you can enter the "Tianfeng Qi Training Tower" and practice there, which is more effective than any other courses. Oh, yes, I almost forgot, the academy Every week, students will be collectively organized to enter the "Sky Burning Qi Training Tower". If we want to talk about courses, then this should count..."

Elder Su smiled lightly and said: "In addition, there are also places such as "Fighting Skills Hall" and "Gongfa Pavilion" in the inner courtyard. Under the premise of having enough "fire energy" in exchange, compared with the outer court, the inner court is actually more free. "If you feel that the "fire energy" is not enough and your hands are itchy, you can go to the arena to earn "fire energy". Of course, the premise is that you must have enough strength, otherwise, you can only lose everything. The four of Xiao Yan nodded slightly, expressing their understanding.

"If there is no problem, you can rest. If you have something, you can come to me." Waved to the four people, Elder Su turned and walked towards the door, finally in the sight of Xiao Yan and others. Watching Elder Su leave, Xiao Yan clapped his hands, smiled at Xun'er and the three of them, "Clean up the room, maybe this place will be our long-term base in the future." "Yep." Xun'er and the three nodded with a smile, and immediately dispersed, each looking for a room. At night, the silver moon hung high, and the faint moonlight sprinkled from the sky, covering the entire huge basin in the moonlight.

In a quiet house, Xiao Yan sat cross-legged on the bed, his hands touching the seals of cultivation, following the cycle of his breathing, wisps of energy visible to the naked eye dissociated from the space, and finally flowed continuously along his breathing. into the body... Beside Xiao Yan, a small snake of seven colors was hovering in mid-air, its small body was slightly twisting in a strange rhythm, and with the twisting of its body, the surrounding space was constantly fluctuating , strands of energy that were more than ten times thicker than Xiao Yan's, surged out, and immediately poured into the little snake's body. What's strange is that this small body swallowed up such a huge amount of energy, but it was true. There was no movement at all, and it looked like a few pieces of gravel had been thrown into a bottomless pit, unable to withstand the slightest ripple.

The practice lasted for about an hour before the dissociated energy gradually slowed down, and Xiao Yan's eyebrows trembled slightly. After a while, he opened his eyes and let out the turbid air held in his chest. "Finally recovered. The consumption of this Buddha's wrath lotus is too great, but after nearly a week of fighting in the forest, the benefits are not small." Xiao Yan murmured in a low voice. At this time, his originally pale face , also regained its ruddy color again, a pair of pupils seemed to be wrapped in a layer of warm jade in the darkness, quite strange. Not long after Xiao Yan's training ended, the Seven-Colored Heaven Swallowing Python also ended his night's training, and hissed at Xiao Yan. Seeing this, the latter shook his head helplessly, and had no choice but to take out a bottle from the ring. The accompanying Zijingyuan flicked a few drops into its mouth, then it wagged its tail leisurely and rushed into Xiao Yan's sleeve robe. "This gluttonous little guy..." Xiao Yan touched the Tuntian python wrapped around his arm with his palm, Xiao Yan gave a wry smile, and just about to speak, the pitch-black ring on his finger did tremble and tremble suddenly. , floating out slowly. "Teacher? How? Did you find the Falling Heart Flame?" Seeing Yao Lao's appearance, Xiao Yan's spirit was lifted immediately, and he hurriedly asked in a low voice. "It's not..." Yao Lao smiled, swept his eyes around, looked at Xiao Yan's disappointed expression, and said with a low smile: "But it's not all fruitless, after you entered the inner courtyard, I also faintly felt a little strange breath , but this inner courtyard is the core of the Canaan Academy, and there are many strong people, so I dare not investigate too carefully." "Strange breath?" Startled slightly, Xiao Yan said pleasantly: "But it has something to do with the strange fire?" "It should be true... Maybe this inner courtyard is exactly what you need." Yao Lao pondered for a while, then nodded, and said; "According to my guess, the place where the strange aura emanates seems to be in the inner courtyard." It is located in the north of the courtyard, so if you have time, you can go there and have a look, maybe you can find some clues." Hearing this, Xiao Yan nodded hurriedly, as long as he had clues, he was most afraid that he would try his best to enter this inner courtyard, but in the end he would not get any information related to the strange fire. "In this inner courtyard, you have to rely on yourself for a lot of things. If I make a move, I'm afraid I will be discovered..." Yao Lao sighed. "Enen, hehe, didn't the teacher say that I relied too much on you before, but the current environment is not harmful to me," Xiao Yan said with a smile. "It's good if you can think like this... In the inner garden, you don't have to worry about the mysterious "Soul Palace" tracking you. So, you can improve your strength with peace of mind here." Nodded gratified , Yao Lao said. Mentioning the mysterious "Soul Palace", Xiao Yan's heart sank a little. This strange force, even powerful people like Yao Lao are afraid of it. It is really hard to imagine how terrifying its strength is. "Well, don't worry, teacher." Seeing Xiao Yan nodding his head, Yao Lao turned into a shadow and hid in the ring again. "It seems that we can only quickly find the second kind of strange fire, and then help the teacher to refine the body that can accommodate the soul as soon as possible. Otherwise, the "soul hall" will always be a poisonous snake hidden in the dark, making people hard to guard against." Looking at the medicine When the old man disappeared, Xiao Yan tapped his fingers slowly on the back of his hand. After a long while, he let out a long breath and murmured in his heart.
