Chapter 24: The Huowu Royal Family

He Yiming looked at the Xie family members who were respectful and timid towards him and sighed in his heart.

Before they were promoted to the innate realm, although they were polite to themselves, they were definitely not as exaggerated as they were at this moment. After they were promoted to the innate realm and made a promise to Xie Zhien to help him hit the innate realm within three years, their attitude towards themselves was suddenly extremely respectful.

Especially Xie Zhien, a centenarian, seemed to be a little polite to his disciples.

He suddenly moved his heart and asked, "Senior Xie, if there is a strong guardian of the innate realm, then can all acquired strong people with the tenth level of internal strength break through this level?"

Xie Zhien smiled bitterly and said, "Mr. He, this is impossible." He shook his head slightly and sighed, "The powerful guardian of the innate realm can only improve the ability of the meridians to withstand the ability to explode and die when breaking through. If you want to make a real breakthrough, you must rely on your own efforts. Either you are a peak master of the tenth level of acquired level with dual attributes of mutual generation, or you must have the limit inner elixir extracted from the inner elixir of spirit beasts for more than 500 years. And even if you have these conditions, it is just a chance to break through. As for whether you can break through..."

Seeing the old man's expression of wanting to speak but stopping, He Yiming immediately understood.

He sighed in his heart, knowing that although he had made a breakthrough, his plan to help the old man in Zhuangzhong also made a breakthrough was completely disappointed.

"So, even if I am willing to take action, you may not be able to advance smoothly?"

Xie Zhien's face darkened, and then said, "That's true, but this is my last chance in this life. Please help me."

He was afraid that He Yiming would regret it, and after saying this, he immediately bowed deeply again, and his sincere expression was enough to move anyone.

He Yiming quickly reached out and helped him up and said, "Senior, please rest assured. Since I have agreed, I will never regret it." His voice was calm and powerful, and naturally it had a convincing force.

Xie Zhien and others' hearts were immediately relieved. Although Xie Zhien may not be able to successfully break through with He Yiming's move, it is much better to have this hope than to have no hope.

For this hope, the Xie family would rather pay any price.

An old servant suddenly rushed in from outside. He was holding a gold stamping post in his hand, his face full of excitement. Before the person arrived, he shouted, "Master, come down to worship Prince Tingminghe."

Xie Nuanhang and others' faces changed slightly. Their eyes changed a few times. Xie Nuanyi said respectfully: "Mr. He, Prince Tingminghe must have come because of you. I wonder if you have the intention to meet him?"

He Yiming asked in surprise: "Who is Tingminghe?"

Xie Nuanyi pondered for a moment and said, "There are four major families in the Huowu Kingdom, among which the Ting family is the royal family of Huowu Kingdom and the only big family with the innate realm. Tingminghe is one of the three acquired masters of the Ting family. Although it is nothing to your eyes, it is already an extremely prominent master in Huowu Kingdom."

He Yiming nodded slightly. He thought for a moment and said, "He has just been promoted to the innate world and wants to temporarily go into seclusion for a few days. During this period, he will not see a foreign guest. Please forgive me."

Xie Nuanyi bowed deeply, a hint of joy flashed in his eyes, and he hurriedly said, "Since it is Mr. He's intention, Xie must tell him truthfully."

Xie Nuanhang and others also breathed a sigh of relief in secret. From their standpoint, of course, they did not want He Yiming to have any connection with the other Huowu families besides the Xie family.

Looking at the sky, He Yiming bowed his hands slightly and said, "He wants to go out for three days, and the fewer ones will return in one day."

After saying that, he nodded slightly to Xie Mingjin, and his body moved slightly, it turned into a light smoke, and it disappeared in a flash.

Everyone in the Xie family looked at each other. After a moment, Xie Nuanhang took a step forward and said softly: "Mingjin, I see Mr. He has a deep affection for you. You should know what to do."

Although He Yiming did not say much to Xie Mingjin in front of them, the level of these old foxes' observation and expression reached the peak. When He Yiming left, all the actions of greeting Xie Mingjin were taken into consideration by them.

Xie Mingjin was stunned, then nodded silently and said, "Yes, uncle."

An infinite emotion surged in his heart. Although he also believed that He Yiming would advance to the innate realm sooner or later, he never expected that this day would come so quickly.

Thinking about the same age as each other but their strengths are so far apart, even though he is generous by nature, he is also melancholy and feels like he has lost something.

He Yiming left the Xie Mansion in a lightning shape. The direction he left was the gate of the Xie Mansion, but the speed was so fast that it was far beyond the reach of an extraordinary person.

To advance to the innate realm is not only the internal energy of the whole body that has been refined and sublimated, and transformed into innate true qi that can communicate with external energy, but also his physical quality has been completely incredibly improved.

It seems like the pace of walking in the garden is so fast, but it is fleeting. Even if someone sees it, he just feels his eyes blurred.

In a moment, he had arrived at the gate of Xie Mansion. The main door was now open. There were more than 200 strong men in armor outside. Their bodies were standing like mountains, and they all exuded a sense of solemnity and sharpness.

With just one glance, He Yiming could see that they were all cultivators above the sixth level of internal strength.

Without asking, these people must be the escorts of the Prince Tingminghe.

His heart slightly trembled. There seemed to be only one level difference between the fifth and sixth floors, but most practitioners were stuck at this level.

Although with the strength of the prince, he will not lack the personal servants and diners on the seventh and eightth levels of internal strength, even the personal guards are masters on the sixth level of internal strength, which is really exaggerated.

He pondered in his heart, his feet suddenly relaxed, and he stood next to the team.

The two personal guards in front of him were standing straight, abruptly, with one more person in front of them like ghosts and charming. Even with their ability, they did not find out how this person was extra.

Years of hard training made them react subconsciously. With a trembling hand, the two personal guards had already pulled out the big sword in their hands and shouted: "Who is it?"

Their reaction immediately alarmed the entire team, and dozens of sharp eyes immediately looked at them.

He Yiming smiled proudly, too lazy to pay attention to it. He waved his sleeves and turned around and walked outside. However, this time he did not leave quickly, but just like an ordinary person, he walked towards the periphery under the gaze of everyone.

The faces of the guards changed. Even though they were not rampant in Yingfeng City, few people dared to turn a blind eye to them like this.

However, they at least remembered that this place was before the main gate of Xie Mansion, so although they were angry, they did not dare to act rashly.

Between the crowd, there was a sixteen-person sedan chair, and each sedan chair owner was a big man with a burly figure and an iron tower. Even in this case, they stood respectfully on the side of the sedan chair without looking sideways.

Suddenly, the curtain of the sedan chair moved, and a middle-aged man in a brocade robe walked out.

Once this person walked out, the faces of several people around him showed a very respectful look on their faces.

He asked slowly, "What's the noise?"

The two personal guards who had spoken before half kneeled on the ground and said, "Go back to the prince, a person suddenly appeared just now. I won't investigate. Please ask the prince to atone for his sins."

The man looked up and looked in the direction where He Yiming left. In fact, although he was in the sedan chair, he knew the situation outside. What shocked him was that even he did not realize when He Yiming came out of the team.

If it weren't for this, this little thing wouldn't be worth his personal experience.

Although He Yiming did not perform any martial arts, his steps were still far better than ordinary people. He had arrived at the intersection of the street and turned his body and immediately left the man's sight.

He hesitated for a moment, turned his head and looked at the gate of the Xie Mansion, and finally gave up the idea of ​​forcing this person to leave. For some reason, when he had that idea just now, there was a hint of chill in his vest.

He shook his head slightly. While he was laughing at himself, a hearty laughter had already come out.

"Xie Nuanhang welcomes His Highness the Prince."

As the sound gets closer, the contemporary head of the Xie family has appeared outside the gate.

Ting Minghe shook his head and laughed, saying, "Brother Xie, don't laugh at me. When I come to you, have you ever put on the airs of a prince?"

Xie Nuanhang smiled and said, "Okay, since that's the case, Brother Ting, please come in and talk."

The two of them entered side by side and came to the main hall of the Xie family. As for the personal guards who were accompanying them, they were welcomed and there was no need for them to worry about it.

After coming to the main hall, taking a seat, and after serving tea, Tingminghe said straight to the point: "Brother Xie, you probably guessed my purpose."

Xie Nuanhang nodded slightly and said, "I guessed a few points, please let Brother Ting tell me clearly."

"Okay, Master Shiguang, my family's ancestor, invited Master Xie Zhien to go into the Huowu Tower to talk." Tingminghe stood up, bowed slightly in the direction of the palace, and said.

Xie Nuanhang did not dare to neglect, so he stood up with him, but his face was slightly stunned and said, "Brother Ting may have misunderstood. The ancestor of the family has not advanced to the innate realm. How can he be called a master?"

Ting Minghe was stunned, his face full of incredible expressions. After a moment, he said: "Brother Xie, the one who advanced just now clearly advanced with fire attribute technique. Is it not Mr. Ling Zu Zhien who advanced just now?"

Xie Nuanhang shook his head and smiled bitterly, saying, "Of course this is not."

Ting Minghe hesitated for a moment and said, "Since he is not Mr. Zhien, who is the master in your mansion?"

Xie Nuanhang sighed lightly and said, "That master is a friend my second brother met outside and was invited to stay at home for a while, but he didn't expect that he would advance to the innate realm in the mansion."

Ting Minghe looked dull. If these words were not from Xie Nuanhang, the head of the Xie family, he would never believe it.

I met a friend I had known from outside and invited him to my home. After I broke through the innate realm. Grandma, this luck is so good...

The muscles on his face twitched a few times. Why can't I encounter such a good thing?

Suddenly, two strong gazes were watched on his face. Ting Minghe suddenly woke up, smiled awkwardly, and said, "Brother Xie, is that master a diner of the Xie family?"

Xie Nuanhang's face changed slightly, and he hurriedly said, "Of course not. Mr. He is the most honorable guest of our Xie family. Even if he invites him to be the elder of the clan, he will be insulting his identity."

Ting Minghe nodded secretly. Although the Xie family is a big family that has been passed down for thousands of years and has had strong people in the innate realm, not every generation can have such a genius who is unparalleled.

At this moment, the most powerful figure in the Xie family is naturally the three core masters of the tenth level of internal strength. Among the many elders in the family, the one with the highest internal strength is only the ninth level.

The ninth-level acquired internal strength master is considered the top leader even in the entire Huowu Kingdom. In order to win over masters of this level, the four major families have to pay a lot of money and energy every year to make them elders in the family.

However, if a master at this level is compared with a person in the innate realm, then he will be nothing.

Unless the people of the Xie family are in their minds, they will never propose to take the position of family elders.

After a while, Ting Minghe said tentatively: "Brother Xie, I wonder if I can pay homage to Master He?" He saw that Xie Nuanhang's face suddenly became quite ugly, and he quickly explained: "Brother Xie, please don't get me wrong. I just took the order of the ancestor of my family and wanted to invite Master He to the palace to see him. There was absolutely no other meaning."

Xie Nuanhang's face improved a little, but then he smiled bitterly and said, "Brother Ting, it's a pity that you're a step late."

"What?" Ting Minghe asked in confusion.

Xie Nuanhang sighed and said, "Mr. He has just left."

Ting Minghe's face suddenly showed surprise and annoyance without any concealment. Of course, he would not think that Xie Nuanhang was deceiving him by this.

Xie Nuanhang coughed lightly and said, "Brother Ting, before Mr. He left, he said that he would return for three days at most, and for one day at least."

Ting Minghe's face changed again. He bowed deeply and said, "In this way, please allow Brother Xie to allow me to stay in your residence temporarily and recommend one or two at that time."

Xie Nuanhang returned a bow and said, "This is a small matter, but Mr. He once said that he had just advanced to the innate world and needed to go into seclusion. If he refused for the time being, please forgive me, Brother Ting."

Ting Minghe smiled and said, "That's nature."

Speaking of this, a figure suddenly flashed through his mind. In an instant, a trace of cold sweat was left on his vest. Fortunately, he was not impulsive at that time.

Not long after, He Yiming had left Yingfeng City and came to a high mountain outside the city.

The weather is getting colder at this moment. Even on the mountains outside Yingfeng City, tourists are rare. He Yiming even took the uninhabited path, and finally he found a quiet and deserted valley.
