Chapter 948: The Xu Family

Chapter 948: The Xu Family

A ray of morning light had just peeked out from the horizon. It was gentle. At this time, a graceful figure ran up a winding path.

She had changed into a pink dress, which made her look like a peach blossom petal blooming in the wind. She was bright and beautiful, and her hair fluttered behind her, making her look even more carefree.

Guan Yue stared at Ou Yangming, who was in a meditative state. She did not say anything.

After 15 minutes, Ou Yangming opened his eyes, which looked like they contained 2 star clouds that were constantly changing. He smiled and asked, “Young Lady, is there something important?”

Looking at his eyes, Guan Yue felt dizzy. She shook her head hard, and the dizziness disappeared. She raised her chin and replied to him, “I found that you’re very interested in formation boards, Brother Yu. Coincidentally, Master has been invited to help Taihe City’s Xu family repair their formation today. If you’re interested, why don’t we go and take a look together?”

She had a tender heart. This invitation was also her initiative to express her goodwill to Ou Yangming.

This was because she deeply understood that if she could befriend Ou Yangming, whether it was for herself or Ling Yue, it would be a good thing.

Ou Yangming did not expose her. He thought to himself, ‘Now, I really need to pay attention to information about myself so that I can better assess the situation.”.

Ever since word about the Eternal Pill was spread, Ou Yangming knew Li Xin had made his move. Without any hesitation, he nodded and said, “Miss Guan, how could I refuse your good intention?”

Guan Yue took a few steps and said excitedly, “Then let’s go quickly. Master’s waiting at the foot of the mountain.”

The 2 of them did not delay any time. They sped down the mountain one after another.

Not long after, they arrived at the foot of the mountain. There was a beautiful lady with a graceful figure there. It was Luo Xiaoyu, who was Guan Yue’s master.

This was the first time Ou Yangming had seen Luo Xiaoyu. She looked like charm was seeping out from her bones.

She was dressed in white, her long hair was like a waterfall, and her skin was like the smoothest white jade. Just standing there quietly, she looked like she could evoke the most primitive desires in people’s hearts.

Luo Xiaoyu’s dimples were like peach blossoms with rain when she saw Ou Yangming. She chuckled and said, “I often heard Yue’er talking about you, Young Master Yu. Now that I’ve met you, I can see that you’re truly a distinguished figure.”

“Senior, you flatter me.” Ou Yangming looked at Luo Xiaoyu’s eyes. His voice was neither hurried nor slow, and there was a faint smile on his face.

Luo Xiaoyu exclaimed internally, ‘As expected, he’s not simple at all. I was born with a charming body, and yet he still dared to look into my eyes with a calm look on his face. Even ordinary top-grade Spiritualists can’t do it.’ The smile on her face became more passionate as she asked casually, “I heard that you like formations very much, Young Master Yu?”

“Yes, the path of formations is broad and profound, but I’ve only scratched the surface,” Ou Yangming answered softly.

Luo Xiaoyu nodded and did not say anything.

Guan Yue looked surprised. She knew while her master seemed approachable, deep down she was aloof and cold. Normally, her master was indifferent to everyone else except her. Having said that, her master seemed to have changed into a different person at this moment. The young lady was slightly concerned. ‘Is she my master?’

What Guan Yue did not know was that Luo Xiaoyu was born with a charming body. She had never met such an indifferent and calm look, which was why her interest was piqued.

After chatting with each other for a while, Luo Xiaoyu looked at the sky and said, “Let’s go. Let’s settle the matter of setting up the formation first.”

Ou Yangming and Guan Yue naturally would not refute.

With that, the 3 of them sped towards Taihe city without saying a word.

Taihe city was one of the 9 great cities of Zhangzhou, and its ranking was still above Huixun City. It was different from the city of rogue cultivators. The various aristocratic families in the city were inextricably linked to the Nine Great Sects of Zhangzhou, and the Xu family of Taihe City could be considered a first-class sect in the city. As such, they were protected by Reborn in Paradise.

Half a month ago, their Big Mountain-guarding Formation suddenly failed, causing the Xu family to fall into panic.

They hurriedly sent the news to Reborn in Paradise. Since Luo Xiaoyu was relatively close to Tianhe City at this time, this happened.

The Seven Stars Sect was close to Taihe city. In less than 3 days, Ou Yangming and his companions arrived outside the Xu residence.

Luo Xiaoyu’s jade-like finger lightly tapped on her interspatial bag, and her slender and delicate index finger pressed down in the air. A red rune paper turned into a red stream of light and flew out. It grew with the wind and directly burned in the sky above the Xu residence’s courtyard, turning into a giant word that said “formation”. The word seemed to carry the power of ghosts and gods, such that even Ou Yangming’s heart slightly tightened.

A crafty look flashed in Guan Yue’s eyes as she smiled and explained, “Brother Yu, this is a formation seal, and it represents Reborn in Paradise’s mightiness.”

As expected, before her voice was gone, the Xu family’s patriarch walked over with a dozen inner sect elders behind him. They walked to the stone lions outside the door and cupped their hands at the same time. They shouted loudly, “Welcome, the Immortal Sect’s messenger!” They looked very sincere, and there was even a hint of fanaticism in them.

“No need for formalities!” Luo Xiaoyu was indifferent, and her temperament was cold.

Upon seeing this, Ou Yangming finally understood where the arrogance of the great sects’ disciples came from.

As soon as Luo Xiaoyu finished, an old man with white hair took a step forward and respectfully said, “I am Xu Hanyin, the patriarch of the Xu family. A feast has been prepared, and we’re only waiting for you to take your seat.”

Luo Xiaoyu coldly responded, “There’s no need for that. It’s more important to get things done first.”

Xu Hanyin was delighted. Nonetheless, he had lived a long life, where his Qi cultivation was profound, so he did not look perturbed at all. He carefully complimented, “You’re really doing your best. I’m full of admiration.”

Luo Xiaoyu nodded and did not say anything.

Xu Hanyin bent his back and made a gesture of invitation, leading the way in front.

Luo Xiaoyu was surrounded by a group of people as she slowly walked toward the center of the Xu family’s formation.

Ou Yangming slowed down and secretly looked at Guan Yu. He lowered his voice to the lowest and remarked softly, “People from big sects are indeed different—glorious.”

Guan Yue looked back and rolled her eyes at him.

She tiptoed to lean close to his ear, and her voice carried a hint of anger as she asked with a huff, “Are you not a disciple from a big sect, Brother Yu?”

Ou Yangming was startled. He smelled a refreshing fragrance and answered with a faint smile, “Guess?”

Guan Yue snorted and quickened her pace to rush to Luo Xiaoyu’s side.

Not long after, the group arrived at the back of the mountain. A stone tablet that was 10 to 13 meters tall appeared in everyone’s sight. It was covered in pale green moss, densely packed, and there was a faint mist flowing on it.

Xu Hanyin’s face was dry, and his wrinkles were all squeezed together. He introduced, “Messenger, this is the core hub of the Xu family’s big formation. Half a month ago, there was a night when a light suddenly shot up from the Baihua Tablet into the sky and enveloped the entire Xu family. When it dissipated, the defensive formation that was previously set up could not be activated no matter what.”

Luo Xiaoyu nodded but did not reply to him.

With a flash of thought, she released her mental power and spread it along the white tablet to analyze it.

Nevertheless, her brows were still furrowed and did not relax. It was obvious that she had encountered quite a bit of trouble.

Guan Yue tugged at the corner of Ou Yangming’s clothes and said softly, “Brother Yu, look carefully. Master’s attainments in formations are very high. If you could learn even a little bit, it’ll be extremely beneficial for you.”

Ou Yangming cursed internally, ‘Given my level of attainment in formations, even a Venerable One wouldn’t dare to say that he or she could completely defeat me, right?’

That was indeed the case. After possessing Qiu Chengwang’s memories, Ou Yangming had reached a high level in the path of formations. Especially when he comprehended the ancient formations in the Forest of Death, he had made his foundation solid. At the same time, the young fellow also improved it to a greater height. In terms of level of attainment in formations, ordinary Venerable Ones would not be a match for him.

Despite that, he quickly said, “Thank you for your reminder, Young Lady!”

His thoughts sank, and his mental power swept out like a tidal wave.

With the Baihua Tablet as the core, it spread out in all directions. At the same time, he entered the states of the thoroughly meticulous and the integration of Heaven and man.

Everything within 333 meters appeared in Ou Yangming spiritual world. The chirping of insects and birds, the blooming of flowers, and even the smallest movements of everyone present appeared in his senses. If one wanted to break a big formation, the most important thing would be to find the core hub.

If one wanted to repair a formation, one would have to push it back from the core hub.

Ou Yangming knew this common sense. With a flash of thought, numerous dim interspatial nodes appeared in his senses.

He discovered that the formation covered a tremendously wide area. It was at least several kilometers wide and enveloped the entire Xu residence.

Special and subtle energy was attached to the Bahua Tablet. As long as the person controlling the formation moved the rune nodes, the energy would use a peculiar method to cut off the connection. If it was not because he had studied ancient formations and had a deep foundation, he probably would not have been able to discover it.

After an hour, the doubt in Luo Xiaoyu’s eyes grew deeper.

She muttered to herself, ‘This doesn’t make sense. Why can’t I even move the rune nodes? No matter how I reverse it, I still can’t find the key point. What’s going on?’ She pinched her fingers and lightly tapped on the white tablet, but she still had no clue.

It happened to be the evening time, so the golden sunlight seemed to have been crushed.

The earth was covered with a layer of faint golden light. Within the light, Luo Xiaoyu’s long hair fluttered in the wind, and her face showed a hint of paleness.

Xu Hanyin was a shrewd and experienced person. When he saw this, he knew the problem would not be easy to solve. He bowed and probed, “Messenger, it’s already late so why don’t we have dinner first? It won’t be too late to look into the problem tomorrow.”

Luo Xiaoyu appeared stubborn as she shook her head.

She continued to investigate. Not long after, even her forehead started to sweat.

Great—the immortal one from Reborn in Paradise was unwilling to leave, so the elders of the Xu family did not dare to leave and just accompanied her.

After a long time, Luo Xiaoyu opened her eyes and appeared weak. She asked in a low voice, “Patriarch Xu, did anything unusual happen half a month ago?”

Xu Hanyin recalled for a moment and answered with certainty, “No, but the news about the Eternal Pill spread at that time. Does that count?”

Ou Yangming touched the tip of his nose and wondered, ‘Why did I suddenly get involved in this?’

“Of course not?” Luo Xuanyu sounded a little mad.

Xu Hanyin rubbed his chin with his aged fingers and pondered for a moment, “Well then, there was a storm where bolts of lightning flashed and thunder rumbled. The sky was as dark as the bottom of a cooking pot. There were muffled thunderclaps. It has been many years since such a big storm happened.”
