"Mister, please feel free to tell me what kind of medicinal ingredients you need. My Shangguan family will definitely give it to you." Hearing this, Shangguan Mu was overjoyed and immediately replied respectfully.

"Thank you very much." Qingyang replied with a faint smile, but he did not say anything else.

Seeing the mysterious expert Yang Chou not say anything more, Shangguan Jingxiang and the others guessed that this hidden expert's temperament was a bit eccentric, so they didn't say anything more. It was likely that he would become impatient when the time came.

"Uncle Li, can I trouble you to pluck that Sky Immortal Vine, so that we can set out on our journey back to Northern Chi Prefecture?" Shangguan Jingxiang turned to Li Zeng and said.

After Li Zeng picked the Sky Immortal Vine, Shangguan Mu suddenly asked, "Does mister have a horse? "I'm afraid it would be too slow if I were to walk."

When he heard Shangguan Mu's words, Qingyang suddenly remembered that his Black Mane Horse was tied up at the foot of the mountain.

Shaking his head, Qingyang softly replied, "You just need to lead the way, and I will catch up."

Recalling Qingyang's tyrannical strength, everyone slightly nodded their heads. Shangguan Mu smiled and said: "Sir, you are overthinking it, our horses are still not far away, let's go."

Everyone chatted along the way. Although Qingyang didn't talk much, he still got some information from Shangguan Mu and Shangguan Jingxiang.

Since the Shangguan family also had a guest physician, the reason why they were looking for the Sky Immortal Vine was because the Shangguan family head was competing for the Medicine Board. Shangguan Mu and Shangguan Jingxiang had also been sent by his father to help them gather medicinal herbs.

He was here to gather medicinal herbs, so why would he bring more guards with him? The guards that were sent out were the ones that the Shangguan Family Head had prepared for when he was afraid of encountering ferocious beasts in the mountains, but he didn't expect to encounter so many bandits on his way.

If it weren't for the fact that they had met Qingyang today, no one would have survived. Naturally, Shangguan Mu and Shangguan Jingxiang would have felt grateful towards this mysterious person.

"Mr. Yang Chou, why don't you ride on my horse with the other guards." Li Jun asked as they walked under the tree where the horses were tied up.

"No worries, I will naturally keep up. Don't worry about me." Glancing at Li Zeng, he had a good impression of this man.

Hearing this, Li Zeng did not say anything more. He nodded and got on his horse, leading the Shangguan family to Northern Chi County.

At first, Shangguan Jingxiang and the rest were a little worried that Qingyang would be able to keep up. But every time they looked back, they found Qingyang falling about two meters behind them, neither fast nor slow.

Looking closely, Qingyang's casual stride was over a Zhang long, and was not much slower than his own horse. Seeing Qingyang's relaxed expression, the Shangguan Family members did not slow down any further. With their whips raised, they galloped towards Northern Chi County.

"It can be said that it is fated to help Shangguan Jingxiang and the others today. Even if the annihilation of the Azure Sun Village is truly the work of the Shangguan family, I cannot stand by idly and watch." Taking a step two feet away, Qingyang lowered his eyebrows and thought, "This is good as well. I have the chance to secretly investigate."

Indeed, as for Qingyang, even if he was certain that Shangguan Chenyi had slaughtered the entire Azure Sun Village, he could not just stand by and do nothing. That was his nature.

With these thoughts in mind, about half an hour later, the group of people entered Northern Chi County. The city guards saluted Shangguan Mu and Shangguan Jingxiang.

"Sir, please follow us back to the manor." After nodding slightly, Shangguan Jingxiang turned to the Azure Sun behind her and said softly.

"Lead the way." "Yes," Azure Sun answered with a smile and no longer made a sound.

"Who is this person?" Why haven't I seen him before? The young miss actually called him mister? "

"Look at that man, he can move one foot out of the air. He must be a Xiantian realm expert, and he might even be a guest of our Shangguan family."

"What nonsense is this!" Everyone, stand guard! "

The city guards whispered among themselves, discussing this middle-aged man who looked cold but was especially respected by the young miss and her master.

He didn't care about how others talked about him, he just silently followed behind Shangguan Jingxiang and the others. Before long, they arrived at the Shangguan Mansion after passing through a few streets.

Of course, Qingyang didn't have the leisure to appreciate the scenery of the government buildings. However, he discovered that the difference between the government buildings and the other government residences was that there were a lot of trees and a large amount of wood power.

Qingyang who possessed the power of wood naturally could feel the existence of wood in the outside world. Although it was not as pure as Qingyang's body, it was still extremely dense.

"Oh? It seems like the Shangguan family does have some strength, and they have Spirit Refinement experts. " As he released his spiritual sense, he could naturally feel that there were several innate experts in the mansion, including a Spirit Refinement cultivator.

"Who is it?" "How dare you use your soul consciousness to scout my Shangguan Residence!" Shangguan Jingxiang and the rest dismounted and were about to lead Azure Sun into the manor when they suddenly heard an explosive shout.

"As expected of a family with the inheritance of wood power, I actually was discovered when I used my spiritual sense to investigate." After silently praising him, Qingyang didn't show any signs of fear as he coldly stood in front of the Shangguan Mansion's gate, waiting for the person to appear.

Currently, Qingyang's Verdant Wood Sun Pupil had already stepped into the Fiery Eyes of Truth realm. If it wasn't for the fact that Qingyang was extremely sensitive towards wood energy, it would be very difficult for other people in the same realm to sense Qingyang's spiritual sense.

Shangguan Jingxiang and the rest were also stunned hearing this, but before they could say anything, a well-built old man rushed out of the palace, his eyes locked onto Qingyang.

"Are you the one who used his spiritual sense to scout my Shangguan palace?" After sizing up Qingyang from head to toe, the old man did not act rashly. He frowned as he inquired.

"That's right." Squinting his eyes, he glanced at the bald old man. Indeed, he was the Spirit Refinement expert from the Shangguan Mansion.

"Grandfather, this is Mr. Yang Chou. Mu Er and I owe him a debt of gratitude." Knowing her grandfather's temper, Shangguan Jingxiang quickly opened her mouth to explain, deeply afraid that the two would start a fight: "This is my grandfather, Shangguan Li."

"Oh? "It seems like you really do have some ability." Qingyang's attitude had already displeased the old man. However, after hearing what his granddaughter said, the old man was still quite polite towards this cold and proud savior. "But still, thank you for saving Jingxiang and Mu Er."

"Why is it that you, who cultivate in the power of wood, can have such a violent temper?" As he lightly dusted off the dust on his sleeves, Qingyang unintentionally said this in a soft voice. Immediately, veins popped out on the old man's smooth head.

"Alright, alright, grandpa, let's invite mister to have a chat at your residence, so that I can explain the entire matter to you and your father in detail." When Shangguan Mu saw that the old man was about to get angry again, he quickly gave Shangguan Jingxiang a look and tried to smooth things over with a coy smile, "Sir, this way, please."

Shangguan Jingxiang smiled knowingly, her hands holding the old man's arm as she walked towards the mansion. Being tugged by her most beloved granddaughter, she didn't say anything more. She glared at Qingyang and walked inside the mansion with Shangguan Jingxiang.

"Mister, please don't blame him. Grandfather has such a bad temper. He treats others extremely well." Shangguan Mu smiled as he walked to the side of Qingyang.

Qingyang nodded as he watched Shangguan Yanran and Shangguan Li leave. He didn't have any prejudice towards this old man, and even had a slight favorable impression of him.

Shangguan Mu led them to the inner hall of the Shangguan Mansion. Just as they stepped through the door, Qingyang discovered that there were several middle-aged men sitting in the room, as well as Shangguan Li and Shangguan Jingxiang, who had just left.

"Is this Mr. Yang Chou?" A middle-aged man with an octagonal mustache put away his fan and stood up to greet him with a smile on his face.

"This is my father, the master of the Shangguan family." Shangguan Mu retreated to the side as he whispered into Qingyang's ear.

"Shangguan Family Head." Bowing slightly, Qingyang spoke in a neither humble nor arrogant manner.

"I am Shangguan Dun. Since Mr. Yang Chou has shown kindness to the Shangguan Family, I am not an outsider. I wish to thank you both on behalf of Jingxiang and Mu Er." He didn't mind Qingyang's salute. Shangguan tong asked with a smile: "I saw that mister is only young and isn't too far off from me, so I asked to call you Brother Yang Chou, is it okay?"

Qingyang looked at Shangguan Dun in surprise. It was a beautiful speech. It was easy for people who saw it for the first time to have a good impression of it. A word from a brother indeed brought the distance between the two of them closer.

"That's fine too, Shangguan brother." With a faint smile and a nod of his head, Qingyang replied.

"Haha, Brother Yang Chou, please have a seat, someone come!" "Look at the tea!" Shangguan Sheng laughed out loud. He ordered the servants to serve tea and then turned to look at Shangguan Jingxiang, "Jingxiang, tell me in detail about how Brother Yang Chou saved the brother and sister in the Wild Ridge today."

Shangguan Jingxiang told him everything that had happened in detail. Although it was not considered soul-stirring, it was still rather thrilling. The Shangguan family members tightly knitted their brows, anger faintly showing on their faces.

After Shangguan Jingxiang had finished speaking, Shangguan Li slapped the wooden table with one hand and bellowed in fury, "Where the hell is this' snooker '!? Knowing full well that it was one of my Shangguan Family that dared to recklessly rob and kill! If this old man finds out who did this, I will definitely scrape him alive! "

He glanced at the furious old man and saw that the Shangguan Family members were all sullen. Qingyang didn't say anything and just continued sipping his tea. After all, this was his family's business, and he was just an outsider.

"No, there's something fishy about this." After a moment of silence, Shangguan Dong suddenly said in a low voice.
