The Path of Evolution

"Brother Ximen, come here, let us sit down and have a heart-to-heart talk."

"No, no, no, Brother Niu, my practice has reached a critical juncture. Please let me go back to my room to retreat first. If you need anything, just ask Da Shuang'er."

"Ma'am, can you talk about life and ideals with me?"

"Zhenren Niu, the Qingyun Realm is about to open, and the slave family is just trying to make ends meet. Why don't you find Shopkeeper Zhou."

"Shop Manager Zhou, would you mind having a chat with me?"

"..."

Niu Xueyou lived in Zuixian Building for half a month, and he struggled for half a month.

The above conversations have happened from time to time in the past half month.

Niu Zhenren was born with a hundred thousand reasons, so he came to Ximen Qingkong to inquire about all kinds of gossip. At first, Ximen Qingkong was very enthusiastic and a little bit showy, and she answered all questions. Two days later, the second-generation ancestor couldn't bear it anymore, because Jacky Niu had too many problems.

On the third day, the eighth young master Ximen, who had smoke coming from his throat, felt a shadow in his heart. He claimed to be unwell and asked the young and old to go out and entertain Mr. Niu.

Jacky Niu asked questions regardless of gender. He pestered the twin sisters and asked a hundred thousand whys.

The young and old took turns to answer the question, and after four days of persistence, they finally couldn't bear it anymore.

They told almost everything they knew. In the end, they had no choice but to push the head shopkeeper of Zuixian Tower out.

As expected of a shopkeeper, Shopkeeper Zhou was eloquent and knowledgeable. He chatted with Master Niu for seven days, which made the latter improve a lot.

The two chatted until the eighth day, and shopkeeper Zhou couldn't bear it anymore. The questions raised by the distinguished guest Niu Zhenren became more and more tricky and weird, such as "Can the demon race have a caesarean section?" "Has the human race solved the problem?" "Artificial insemination problem", "Have the Eldar launched satellites into the sky, and have they installed signal towers in this world"...

Being able to take charge of Zuixian Tower, Shopkeeper Zhou is considered well-informed. However, there are many questions raised by Master Niu that he cannot answer.

For fourteen consecutive days, the entire Zuixian Tower fell into an invisible torture.

Ximen Qingkong felt a little regretful, and secretly wondered why she hired such a chatty person as a helper.

On the fifteenth day, Zuixian Tower was finally quiet.

At noon today, the Qingyun Realm, which lasts for a century, is about to open.

Zhao Hao seemed to have changed. He no longer asked questions and followed Ximen Qingkong in a low-key manner.

Thirty miles southwest of Lingquan Valley, there is a huge open space.

The open space was unremarkable and looked very flat. It was obvious that people came and went here frequently.

Every sixty years, extraordinary supernatural events occur in this seemingly ordinary place.

The entrance to Qingyun Realm opens nearby.

Ximen Qingkong is close to the water and the first to come is the moon. He brought his big and small Shuang'er, Zhao Hao and Princess Xiang to this place, and first picked a good place that was easy to visit. Then he took out five bracelet-like rings, handed one to each person, and said: "Brother Niu, follow the plan."

Zhao Hao understood immediately and put the ring on his wrist.

Entering the Qingyun Realm is a random transmission.

It wasn't until a few hundred years ago that a master of weapon refining from the Kunlun Sect solved this problem.

This person invented a great thing - the Five-Son Concentric Ring!

As long as they wear this bracelet, five people can be teleported to the same place.

From then on, as long as the evolvers who could afford the five-son concentric ring would basically form a team of five, they would look after each other.

"Brother Ximen, didn't you say there are two helpers? Where are they?" Zhao Hao couldn't help but ask again.

Da Shuang'er and Xiao Shuang'er rolled their eyes together, they had never seen such a bitchy man.

Ximen Qingkong was quite graceful and said with a smile: "Far away in the sky, close in front of you."

Zhao Hao drew inferences from one instance: "Could it be the two Mrs. Ru?"

Ximen Qingkong smiled and said nothing, which was regarded as acquiescence.

Zhao Hao stopped asking questions and secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

He had already noticed that the twin sisters were very powerful. They were said to be Ximen Qingkong's concubines, but in fact they were more like personal bodyguards. Moreover, Ximen Qingkong is not married to the first wife, and the two children are equivalent to the first wives in a sense. This can be seen from the attitude of the people in Zuixian Tower and the respect shown by shopkeeper Zhou to the two children.

For Zhao Hao, what he faced was just a math problem.

If Ximen Qingkong hired two more powerful helpers, once the two sides turned against each other, there would be a five-on-two situation. But now that the "other two helpers" no longer exist, even if they finally break up, Zhao Hao and Princess Xiang will fight against each other in a two-on-three fight. It's not clear who will win.

As soon as the five people arrived, the five-person team from Lingquan Valley, which had the home field advantage, also showed up.

Under the leadership of Master Long Qiang, the striking Luo Dapang followed closely behind, flanked by two middle-aged men with similar looks, namely the two brothers Ouyang Long and Ouyang Hu. There is also a woman wearing an emerald green dress, veiled with a veil, following her four companions from a distance, standing out from the crowd.

"Mr. Long, please take care of me after we get in." Ximen Qingkong showed an unprecedented enthusiasm and took the initiative to say hello.

"Absolutely. Please show mercy when the time comes, Young City Master, and don't embarrass juniors like me." Master Longqiang was also very enthusiastic, but this enthusiasm was perfunctory, because he knew that Ximen Qingkong really wanted to strike up a conversation. Who is the target of.

Sure enough, Ximen Qingkong's eyes fell on the masked woman behind him, and he said affectionately: "Mengqi, I haven't seen you for a while, how are you doing?"

That masked woman was Yun Mengqi, the only daughter of Yun Bufan, the chief disciple of Master Guquan.

Sixty years ago, Yun Mengqi went to Qingyun Realm for the first time. After coming out, she announced that she would go into seclusion and not leave home for a month. This girl's seclusion caused a lot of rumors. Some people said that Yun Mengqi was stimulated in the Qingyun world and realized that she was not capable enough, so she worked hard to practice hard. Some people also said that Yun Mengqi was teased by Ximen Qingfeng in Qingyun Realm, and she couldn't afford to offend the second generation ancestor, so she had no choice but to hide in seclusion.

Judging from the situation at hand, the credibility of the second rumor seems to be very high.

"The little girl is practicing in seclusion. She is neither happy nor sad. It is impossible to say whether her life is good or bad." Yun Mengqi's answer was quite Zen-like.

This Zen-like answer, translated into popular language, is: Whether I am living well or not is none of your business?

Ximen Qingkong hit a soft nail and still refused to give up. Because, when he was in Qingyun Realm, he was lucky enough to see Yun Mengqi's true appearance under her veil. A person like Ximen Ba Shao had seen countless women in his life and slept with many beauties who could be called stunning beauties, but he was still amazed by Yun Mengqi.

For sixty years, he has never forgotten Yun Mengqi, which shows how unforgettable the surprise at that time was.

At this moment, the arrival of five uninvited guests disrupted Ximen Qingkong's thoughts.

Everyone looked at the five men in black robes with expressions of astonishment.

Princess Xiang beside Zhao Hao suddenly grabbed his hand and made a gesture inside his sleeve.

No one knew Princess Xiang was in shock at this moment. Among the five men in black robes across from her, there was one she was too familiar with.

One of the men in black robes turned out to be a mysterious figure she had seen several times before - Tianjizi!
