Chapter 945: Talking with a knife
Translator: 549690339
After a successful trip to the shadow cave, Han Jiangxue and Xia Yan returned to their training.
On the 14th of August, Jiang Xiao flashed to xudu city in the Central Plains province, where he had opened a map before. He bought a train ticket with his mobile phone and booked a car online in the wilderness.
You’ve added so much money, are you coming?
In?
Why can’t you get over money?
!!
Although Jiang Xiao could fly all the way to Luoyi city in a flash, the country was strict after all. Besides, given Jiang Xiao’s status, he was still willing to make sure that he didn’t run into any special circumstances.
The high-speed rail from xudu city to Luoyi city only took a little more than an hour, so they arrived very quickly.
This time, there was someone to pick up the car!
When Jiang Xiao walked out of the station wearing a baseball cap with an ink-black bamboo pattern, a mask, short sleeves, shorts, and flip-flops, a handsome young man with short hair hurriedly walked up to him.
His body trembled with excitement, and even his voice trembled.””H-Hello … Mr. Jiang. ”
Jiang Xiao had already contacted Yi qingchen and knew that someone was coming to pick him up. He raised his head slightly and looked at the young man who was nearly 1.9 meters tall, blinking.
“My name is Chen lingtao, and I’m here to take you to the Yi family,” the young man introduced himself.
“Oh.” Jiang Xiao nodded and said,”lead the way.”
The two of them got into the same car. To Jiang Xiao’s surprise, the child who looked like a high school student was actually the driver?
Jiang Xiao sat in the back seat silently. After the car drove out of the high-speed rail station, Jiang Xiao asked,””Do you have a driving license?”
Chen lingtao glanced at the rear mirror and said,””Yes, I do. I just look a little young. I’m already an adult. I’m in my second year of high school this year, and I’ll be in my third year when school reopens.”
Jiang Xiao was speechless.
Didn’t they say that the Yi family was a big family? Why did they send a high school student to pick them up?
“That …” Chen lingtao continued. Yi qingchen is my older sister, and she is the granddaughter of my great aunt. My grandmother and Yi qingchen’s grandmother are biological sisters. ”
“Oh,” Jiang Xiao said.
Chen lingtao scratched his head like he was going crazy, he couldn’t even continue the awkward conversation.
That’s not right?
Did I open it the wrong way?
Wasn’t God Pi very mischievous?
Why was it so different from what was shown on TV?
“I …” Chen lingtao continued. I’m a Shield Specialist!”
“Oh,” Jiang Xiao said.
“My star map is a spiky armor. I have 27 Star Slots!” Chen lingtao replied.
“Oh,” Jiang Xiao said.
Chen lingtao was speechless.
The car drove for more than an hour, and the two of them did not speak again.
Jiang Xiao felt that he was not reliable. Was he heading north to shanjin province?
Jiang Xiao was a little dumbfounded when the car got off the highway and entered a toll station.
The name of the toll booth … Yi County?
Really?
Jiang Xiao finally took the initiative and asked,””Yi County?”
Chen lingtao immediately perked up and hurriedly replied,””I heard that it used to be Yi village. In the middle of the last century, after the founding of China, it slowly developed and evolved into the Yi County we know today.”
Jiang Xiao clicked his tongue in wonder. The streets along the way were very modern, but the car drove all the way to the suburbs and finally stopped in front of a huge courtyard.
Jiang Xiao almost thought that he had traveled back in time.
She didn’t expect to see a courtyard house here. Well … It wasn’t accurate to call it a courtyard house. This should be a huge martial arts practice field!
Jiang Xiao could hear the sounds of fighting from inside the car.
In front of the courtyard’s entrance, there were five to six people standing. The leader was a 50-year-old middle-aged man and there were a few people standing behind him. One of them was the familiar Yi qingchen.
Jiang Xiao suddenly regretted that he was not dressed formally!
Jiang Xiao was secretly vexed and took off his hat and mask before opening the door and getting out of the car.
“Pipi!” Yi qingchen tiptoed with a look of excitement on his face and hurriedly waved at Jiang Xiao.
“Ahem.” A light cough came from the middle-aged man with half-white hair.
Yi qingchen hurriedly put down his hand and pouted, putting on a submissive look.
Jiang Xiao didn’t know how to greet him. After all, the buildings here were a little ancient and simple, and the middle-aged man was dressed in white, looking like an old man who practiced Tai Chi in the square.
Jiang Xiao strode forward and, not knowing how to bow, he had no choice but to pay his respects.””Hello, how are you?”
“This is my second uncle, Yi zhixiao.” Yi qingchen stepped forward and introduced.
Jiang Xiao looked at the middle-aged man in front of him. His hair was half-white and he had a beard. His eyes were bright and he looked energetic. He was dressed in a White Tai Chi suit and looked like a Sage.
“Hello, Mr. Yi,” Jiang Xiao greeted.
Yi zhixiao also cupped his fists at Jiang Xiao and said politely,””Welcome, Mr. Jiang. Please.”
As he spoke, Yi zhixiao took a step back and made a “please” gesture.
Jiang Xiao nodded continuously, feeling a little embarrassed. Soon, someone looked at him and eased his emotions.
He turned around and saw a man with a braid.
The man was in his mid-thirties and was also dressed in a white martial arts suit. His eyes seemed emotionless, and his hair was tied in braids. He had a face full of vicissitudes, and there was also some stubble on his face.
At this moment, he was leaning against the door frame with his arms crossed and a Tang sword in his arms. He was looking at them silently.
When she noticed that Jiang Xiao was looking at her, her emotionless eyes glistened.
However, Jiang Xiao only felt a faint sense of hostility.
Yi qingchen leaned over and whispered,””This is my master, Yi tenghui.”
Everyone stepped into the door, and Jiang Xiao’s eyes narrowed slightly amidst the sounds of fighting. In the huge training field, there was a group of Star Warriors who were holding sticks and practicing martial arts.
This number was no less than a thousand!
The scale was a little too big.
From the huge fluctuation of star power in the arena, Jiang Xiao knew that they were definitely Star Warriors, and …
Besides, Jiang Xiao didn’t see any young people. Most of the people here were young and strong, and the average age was probably around 24 or 25 years old.
Judging from the fluctuations of star power, most people were in the Galaxy stage and had not yet entered the Galaxy stage.
So … This is an adult class?
“Mr. Jiang.” Second uncle Yi zhixiao suddenly said.
Jiang Xiao turned around and looked at her.
Yi zhixiao led Jiang Xiao through the training field and into the hall in front of him while saying,””Yi qingchen’s father is busy with official business and can’t rush back. You’re all soldiers, so I think you should be able to understand.”
“Oh, it’s fine, it’s fine. I understand.” Jiang Xiao knew that Yi qingchen’s father was the leader of the mountain shattering Army, but Yi qingchen had never revealed what his position was.
With dimensional spaces being opened frequently, the mountain breaking Army had a lot of work to do. If there was a specialization in every profession, the mountain breaking Army’s specialty was to destroy dimensional spaces and holy ground.
Everyone took a seat in the room and chatted for a while. Jiang Xiao became more and more excited as he listened to the sounds of fighting outside. He felt like he had returned to the Yi ancient tower and the time when he was still in the ancient city.
After they settled on the matter of the apprenticeship tomorrow, second uncle Yi zhixiao suddenly changed the topic and asked with a smile,”Mister Jiang, what do you think of this kid?”
“What?” Jiang Xiao looked in the direction that Yi zhixiao was pointing at, only to see Chen lingtao, who had just brought him back.
Jiang Xiao was suddenly enlightened. Was it an interview just now? He was here to take in Yi qingchen, but was he trying to shove in another disciple?
Jiang Xiao sized her up and said politely,””He’s tall, strong, and talented. His eyes are sharp. He looks pretty good.”
Chen lingtao was obviously still a high school student. After hearing Jiang Xiao’s polite praise, he clenched his fists excitedly.
Yi qingchen, who was sitting at the side, immediately glared at Chen lingtao.
“Hahaha.” Yi zhixiao stroked his beard and laughed heartily. He nodded and said,”Mr. Jiang, you can take a look at this kid’s combat skills. In the new generation of the Yi family, only Yi qingchen and this kid are worthy of being brought out.”
Everyone present was about the same age as Yi qingchen, but when they heard Yi zhixiao’s words, no one retorted or showed any objection.
One could tell that Yi qingchen was definitely one of the top figures in the younger generation of the Yi clan.
Hmm … As the runner-up of the World Cup individual competition, Yi qingchen was naturally the leader of the Yi family’s younger generation. In fact, he was a leader even in the entire world.
Jiang Xiao changed the topic and turned to look at the man who was leaning against the window in the distance.
Jiang Xiao stood up and said,”Sir, it seems like you have something to say.”
From the moment he alighted from the car, Jiang Xiao felt that he was being stared at. The middle-aged man who used to lean against the door frame and hold a Tang sword was still hiding in the dark and looking at Jiang Xiao quietly.
Yi tenghui, Yi qingchen’s dagger master, could tell that his main weapon should be a Tang sword.
Perhaps his Tang knife skills were even more exquisite than his dagger skills?
However, Yi qingchen obviously didn’t learn the Tang sword technique from him. Instead, with the help of his family members, he forcefully watched Jiang Xiao’s competition videos and analyzed his combat moves frame by frame. With the help of the ghostly monk, he then mastered the giant sword technique.
Jiang Xiao’s brain was spinning rapidly and he secretly speculated in his heart. Was this the reason why Yi tenghui was vaguely hostile?
Yi tenghui crossed his arms in front of his chest, hugged the Tang sword, and leaned against the window. He said indifferently,””I only use my blade to speak.”
At this moment, the atmosphere in the room was much more serious than the one outside the martial arts practice field!
There were no sounds of fighting, but the fighting intent here seemed to be even stronger than outside.
Yi zhixiao frowned and scolded,””Teng Hui!”
Jiang Xiao turned his head and looked at Yi qingchen, who was still seated in front of the seniors and juniors.
Yi qingchen also had an apologetic look on his face as he looked at Jiang Xiao in embarrassment.
Jiang Xiao pursed his lips and turned around again to look at the man who was holding a Tang Dao.
Talk with a blade?
It sounds so domineering~
Jiang Xiao scratched his head and said softly,””Don’t you use your mouth?”
Yi tenghui was speechless.
Jiang Xiao’s eyes lit up and he suddenly said,””You’re the legendary knife mouth?”
Yi tenghui was speechless.
