Blue Silver Grass Guide

"Boom--!"

The dull thunder came from the distant sky, covering up the patter of rain outside.

Ling Yi sat in the empty palace, facing the open door from the side, watching the raindrops outside forming a line, connecting the sky and the earth.

Looking down, the big drops of rain falling from the eaves of the palace hit the ground. The moment they splashed, each broken drop of water seemed to reflect the hazy world.

"Gulu gulu..."

The sound of water boiling came from the red copper pot on the table in front of him, and a misty white mist rose rapidly.

At this moment, a plain white hand ignored the blazing heat on the copper kettle, grasped the hot handle, lifted the copper kettle, and poured hot water into a nearby purple clay pot with its lid uncovered.

Ling Yi looked away from the outside of the room and glanced at the silver needle-shaped tea leaves rolling in the hot water. After the master put down the copper pot, covered the lid of the purple clay pot, poured two cups of tea, and said softly He said: "Thank you."

"Master Ling, you're welcome." Disiya's jade-white hands held up a tea cup, her red lips were slightly parted, she blew the water mist on the clear tea soup, and replied in a gentle voice.

Taking a sip of hot tea, as the empress of the empire, she turned her head and looked at the petite figure in the center of the palace, with the doting smile of an ordinary mother appearing on her face.

"Master Ling can come to see Xue'er, Xue'er is very happy——"

Following Disiya's words, Ling Yi also turned his head and looked over, and saw Xue Qianxun who was meticulously rehearsing several bird and animal forms in "Basic Body Training Technique".

Time passed by and it was August 2623 in the Douluo Calendar. Xue Qianxun, who was born in mid-July of the Douluo Calendar 2618, had just celebrated her fifth birthday.

The little girl, who was about 1.3 meters tall, was wearing a loose white-gold robe. Her smooth golden hair was bound behind her head by a golden hoop, and her fair and delicate face was covered with crystal beads of sweat. But he still meticulously maintains the standards of every movement.

On her swan-like slender neck, a thin golden chain was adorned with a warm yellow jade pendant. It was the first gift Ling Yi gave her, the "Ling Jade".

And under the effect of "Sealing Ling Jade", it can be said that the little guy has been growing up under the effect of light attribute soul skills for the past five years. His body is healthier than ordinary children when nourished by pure light attribute elements. , strong and clean.

Of course, the 'Fourth Soul Skill - Holy Light Illumination' that Ling Yi used five years ago would definitely not last for five years. Even with the effect of the 'Sealing Jade', after lasting for about forty days, the Soul Skill The pure light attribute energy carried has been exhausted.

This is because babies have little activity and spend most of their time in sleep. Otherwise, if a three- or five-year-old child is running around and playing, the effect of the soul skill will be lost in about ten days at most. disappear.

Fortunately, the former Crown Princess and now the Queen Disiya is from the [Glorious Bird of Paradise Family]. Although most of the clan members are on the combat route, there are still a few on the auxiliary route.

Even though her cousin who is her maid only has the strength of a second-level soul master, her first soul ring is still a white tenth-level soul master. But it is the opponent's 'weak' first soul skill, the pure light attribute energy it originally released to heal minor injuries, that can take over the effect of Ling Yi's 'fourth soul ring, holy light' and continue to nourish the snow. Chihiro body.

At most, you need to replenish your soul skills every other day, or even half a day, but this frequency is completely stress-free for a second-level soul master.

Picking up the slightly cooled tea and taking a sip, Ling Yi's handsome face showed a hint of apology, and he said harmoniously: "I was planning to come here last month, but unfortunately something delayed me and I missed the little girl. It’s her birthday, maybe you’ve disappointed her?”

"It's okay~" Dixia looked at Xue Qianxun with soft eyes, and a smile appeared at the corner of her mouth: "Although she was a little disappointed because she didn't see you in person, the gift you sent her made her happy. More than half a month until today..."

As she said that, she raised her starry eyes and glanced at Ling Yi, then looked at a corner deep in the palace.

There, a bird's nest about Mish square was placed on a low wooden frame.

The bird's nest is made entirely of beige twigs, with goose-yellow fine velvet inside. It is surrounded by blue grass with white texture, which is "Bright Blue Silver Grass".

In the center of the nest, on top of goose-yellow velvet, a milky-white egg the size of an ordinary person's fist appeared quietly there.

The egg of the soul beast "Glorious Bird of Paradise" was Ling Yi's fifth birthday gift to Xue Qianxun.

Ling Yi, who also set his sights on the bird's nest, felt the smell of the egg, raised his brows, and had a look of surprise on his face: "What a coincidence, it seems that it hasn't been long since it hatched, it should be within the next two days."

Hearing Ling Yi's words, a look of surprise appeared on Disia's pretty face. She couldn't help but look back at Ling Yi. She felt in her heart that this man was magical, as if he was carrying some mysterious power and could give people... Bringing joy and surprise into the world.

When Xue Qianxun slowly put away her training posture and turned around to look over with a cheerful expression, she happened to see her mother looking at Uncle Ling Yi in ecstasy, while Uncle Ling Yi looked at him with a smile on his face.

There were no other thoughts in her little mind, she just felt that the picture in front of her was beautiful and she liked it very much.

…

Not to mention the warm scene of what looks like a 'family of three' in this palace, in another palace a few miles away, Emperor Xueye was playing chess with a middle-aged man with an elegant and handsome appearance.

"..., Sect Leader Ning is willing to be Qianxun's teacher, so I am naturally happy."

The Emperor Xue Ye, whose majesty was growing day by day, made every move, and when facing the master of the [Seven Treasures Glazed Sect], his demeanor and tone remained sufficiently close.

"It is also an honor for Qianxun to become Sect Master Ning's student."

Facing Emperor Xue Ye's kindness, Ning Fengzhi clearly felt it. She also responded with a bright smile, picked up the chess pieces, raised her hand to place the pieces, and said: "Where, as the eldest daughter of His Majesty, the eldest princess has a noble status. , it should be an honor for Ning to become the eldest princess’s teacher.”

"but……"

Ning Fengzhi withdrew her hand from the chessboard, but a look of hesitation suddenly appeared on her elegant face.

Seeing this, Emperor Xue Ye picked up a sunspot, but did not look at the chessboard. He looked at Ning Fengzhi in front of him: "If Sect Leader Ning has any concerns, it's okay to say it!"

The relationship between [Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect] and [Tian Dou Empire] has always been relatively good. The other party sent a disciple to spread the word three days ago. Today, the sect leader Ning Fengzhi entered the palace to meet Emperor Xue Ye.

During the chat, Ning Fengzhi inadvertently proposed to be the teacher of the eldest princess Xue Qianxun. This was a pretty good suggestion for Emperor Xue Ye.

On the one hand, this can deepen the friendship between [Tian Dou Empire] and [Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Sect] and make the relationship between the two parties even closer.

One of the two parties is one of the two major empires in the Douluo Continent, and the other is a top soul master force, one of the top three sects as famous as the [Haotian Sect] and [Blue Lightning Tyrannosaurus Rex Family]. The former has a vast territory and is extremely powerful at the middle and lower levels, while the latter has a lot of high-end soul masters and is one of the forces with the most auxiliary soul masters in Douluo Continent. There is a lot of complementarity between the two.

On the other hand, it comes from an unexplainable reason.

Facing the [Martial Soul Palace] and [Haotian Sect] whose power is getting stronger day by day, facing the [Xingluo Empire] that frequently mobilizes troops and is ready to move, and facing the [Lingyun City] whose influence is becoming more and more important and cannot be ignored. , whether it is Emperor Xue Ye or Ning Fengzhi, there is a faint sense of crisis lingering in their hearts.

[Martial Soul Palace] and [Haotian Sect] restrict each other. Although Emperor Xueye and Ning Fengzhi were outnumbered by these two families and felt unhappy, they did not have much resistance. The gap in hard power allowed smart people to know what to do. How to do it.

As for the [Star Luo Empire], there is the 'Balance Doctrine' of the [Martial Soul Palace], and there is the [Haotian Sect] whose behavior is as domineering as the [White Tiger Dai Family], or even more powerful, Emperor Xue Ye Yu Ning Fengzhi was even less worried.

For Emperor Xueye, the most that can happen is that there will be more fighting in the frontier army, and some casualties will only result in casualties, but it will not harm the vitality of the [Tian Dou Empire].

But it is no longer a problem for Ning Fengzhi. After all, their [Qibao Glazed Sect] is a soul master sect, and [Xingluo Empire] only targets the [Tiandou Empire] who is also an empire, and they cannot find him. Ning Fengzhi raised his head.

The real reason why Emperor Xue Ye and Ning Fengzhi sit together is [Lingyun City] and Ling Yi!

Only three years have passed since Ling Yi stepped on Tang Hao, the proud man of heaven, and showed the muscles of Lingyun City to the mainland.

But in the past three years, the development speed of [Lingyun City] has exceeded the expectations of everyone on the mainland.

Not to mention anything else, [Lingyun City] can affect all ordinary people except soul masters simply by monopolizing the purchase and sales of "Blue Silver Rice" and setting the current food prices in Douluo Continent!

Looking at Douluo Continent, how many soul masters are there? The number of ordinary people far exceeds that of soul masters by more than a hundred times!

To give a simple example, the Tiandou Frontier Army has millions of soldiers, but the number of soul masters is only a few thousand. Even if you add those who hold high positions or are descendants of established military families, you can barely survive. Just ten thousand.

But even for these soul masters, their daily diet is no different from that of ordinary soldiers. At most, their wealth makes it easier for them to withstand the impact of food price fluctuations than ordinary soldiers.

In addition to the most common materials such as "Blue Silver Rice", there are also various conventional herbal medicines and "Blue Silver Grass" that are traded and circulated. The [Aoki Chamber of Commerce], a subsidiary of [Lingyun City], controls more than 80% of the market share!

To say monopoly is not an exaggeration at all.

In terms of metal utensil manufacturing and mineral raw materials, because the "Gengxin City" where the [Blacksmiths Association General Assembly] is located is within the territory of the [Star Luo Empire], due to the other party's intervention, the [Aoki Chamber of Commerce] is still unable to produce food and herbal medicines. So strong.

But such a comparison further highlights the incompetence of [Tian Dou Empire] and Emperor Xue Ye.

[Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect] and Ning Fengzhi are in a similar situation to Emperor Xueye. Because there is a lot of overlap with [Lingyun City]'s positioning, the influence of [Seven Treasures Glazed Tile Sect] has been reduced a lot in the past three years, but it has hindered Due to the power of the titled Douluo who lived in seclusion in "Lingyun City", Ning Fengzhi could only choose to swallow his anger and give in step by step.

"Snapped!"

A white stone fell on the chessboard, and Ning Fengzhi said indifferently: "Your Majesty, as far as Ning knows, the eldest princess seems to have a good relationship with Master Ling, and Master Ling's talent and wisdom are well known to the world, and I am ashamed of myself." …”

"It doesn't matter!" Before Ning Fengzhi could continue, Emperor Xue Ye held Heizi's hand and raised it to stop him, and said domineeringly: "My daughter, Xue Ye, it's not her turn to be someone's student. Let an outsider comment!"

"Sect Master Ning just needs to agree, and I will arrange for Qianxun to give the teacher a gift later, and tell the public about this!"

"In this case, Ning will just wait for the good news." Ning Fengzhi expressed his position at the right time.

"Hahaha——!"*2

The two looked at each other and laughed, feeling very satisfied with the consensus reached this time.

…

"Why are you laughing? Are you so happy?"

As soon as he returned to the [Aoki Chamber of Commerce] headquarters in Lingyun City, Ling Yi heard a burst of laughter filled with joy and heartiness that resounded throughout the backyard of the chamber of commerce.

If it weren't for the soul guide array blocking it, I'm afraid the sound could reach the chamber of commerce building in front, or even the streets.

"Brother Yi!"/"City Lord!"*N

Everyone who was originally gathered in the courtyard turned around and saw Ling Yi's figure, and they all said hello immediately.

Ling Yi stepped forward, nodded to Mang Li, Mo Yuxiong, Li Yang and others, and finally asked Yang Shirley and A Yin: "Why are they all gathered here? Also, the laughter just now was from Is it from Senior Dugu?"

"Well~" Shirley Yang ignored the eyes of others, hugged Ling Yi's arm, nodded, and said: "Not long after you went out in the morning, Senior Dugu said that he felt like he was about to break through, so Ah Yin and I will Call in human hands to guard you.”

Next to her, although Ah Yin did not stick close to her like Yang Xueli, her watery eyes were almost welded to Ling Yi's body and she nodded silently.

"This is a great joy!" Ling Yi couldn't help but feel happy when he heard this, and said with a smile.

Ling Yi was Dugu Bo whom he met for the first time at the auction of "Shabak City" in the year 2607 of the Douluo Calendar. At that time, Ling Yi, who was sixteen years old, was only a second-level soul master of the healing system. At that time, the four Eleven-year-old Dugu Bo is a level 62 control-type war soul emperor.

In terms of identity and strength, the two were very different, but with Ling Yi's deliberate friendship, the two established a rather close friendship.

Later, in the year 2613 of the Douluo Calendar, under the radiation from the "Eye of Ice and Fire" in the "Sunset Forest", Dugu Bo's strength increased by leaps and bounds, reaching level seventy. Later, under Ling Yi's plan, he successfully hunted down the "Demon Dragon Zixi" who had cultivated for nearly 50,000 years. Not only did he successfully advance to the Seventh Ring Soul Saint, but the martial spirit "Jade Phosphorus Snake" was also in "Demon Dragon Zixi" Under the influence of his soul ring and dragon ball inner elixir, his bloodline transformed and he became the "Jade Phosphorus Snake King" with dragon bloodline!

There was also the 10,000-year-old "Medusa Skull", a precious soul bone that could turn brothers against each other and husbands and wives backstab each other. Ling Yi also waved his hand and handed it over to Dugu Bo for absorption.

Now ten years have passed, and Dugu Bo is fifty-seven years old. His soul power has finally risen to level 80 from becoming Soul Saint, and he has become a quasi-Soul Douluo. He only needs to absorb one soul ring to become a very important figure in the Douluo Continent. A strong person!

Although for today's [Lingyun City], a Contra-level combat power cannot bring about any qualitative changes, but the meaning it brings is completely different.

Although Yang Shirley and Ah Yin's 'Martial Soul Fusion Skill Blue Silver Overlord Spear' can possess Contra-level combat power, it is not Contra after all.

Although Chen Xin is a Contra, he joined halfway, and his status in [Lingyun City] is more like that of a guest minister. Unless Ling Yi invites him when he is out, he will not go out of the city to do things.

Dugu Bo is different. He is an old man who has been with Ling Yi before the establishment of "Lingyun City". His relationship with Li Zhishu, Long Yin and others is even better. His son Duguxin is still the third son of "Lingyun City". Head of the Criminal Department of the Sixth Department.

It can be said that [Lingyun City] and Dugu Bo are almost bound together.
