Chapter 65 The Top Three Families
1655 Words
Mu Yunfei looked in the direction of the voice, and a teenager showed up in front of the three not far away. He was dressed in a long cyan robe, with a black belt with golden grain on his waist, and his fountain-like black hair danced even though there was no wind. His clear eyes seemed able to see through everything in the world, and his back seemed to blend with heaven and earth.
He approached them slowly with fantastic breath, and it seemed that heaven and earth and vitality were mixed around his body. There was even breath of fairies and heroes in the modern world seemingly.
"Cold Coagulation Spring?" Mu Yunfei asked. He was indeed wondering whether there was something magical in the small pool with energy sending out indistinctly.
"Right," The teenager stood next to Mu Yunfei and answered unhurriedly. Then he continued, "The pure ability of the ice nature hidden in Cold Coagulation Spring can release mysterious energy and envelop the whole mansion of the Xing family to resist the enemies from outside.
"By the way, where did you come from? What brought you here?" The young man asked slowly in a flat tone.
Mu Yunfei introduced himself simply again, but this time, he didn't mention too many details. He just said that he had something important to discuss with the master of the Xing family.
That man just nodded slightly after hearing that. Then he turned around and looked at Cold Coagulation Spring, saying gently, "My name is Xing Jie."
"Ah, you are the first young master Xing Jie," Mu Yunfei was surprised and replied in a hurry.
"I am sorry. I didn't recognize you."
"Never mind. You can enter the Xing family's mansion, so at first, you have been accepted. Cold Coagulation Spring doesn't have any unusual reactions, so it proves that you came with no evil intention," Xing Jie stated.
After hearing that, the three looked at Cold Coagulation Spring involuntarily. Could this spring water with intelligence tell the killing intent?
"Young Master, you have said that Cold Coagulation Spring can resist the enemies from outside. Where are the enemies from?" Mu Yunfei could understand if it could resist the beasts on mountains, but the enemies from outside Xing Jie had mentioned were not beasts obviously.
"In the big modern world, there are many forces. Among them, except the Elemental Star Headquarters, the top three families staying secluded in different areas must be the most powerful, and our family is included.
"The other two are the Chu family and Jin family. Both of them have extraordinary strength and influence." While speaking, Xing Jie seemed to think of something, with an unusual expression flashing in his eyes.
"What features do the top three families have?" Mu Yunfei asked. In this world where the weak would stand as easy prey of the strong, how could they live in one area in safety if they didn't have abilities or something special?
"The top three families can live in one area respectively because their abilities are different.
"All the members of the Chu family are warriors with ritual articles, and there is no person whose Bloodline Power is very powerful in that family, but each of them has a ritual article, and their strengths are outstanding. None of the members in the Jin family is a bloodline warrior or a warrior with a ritual article, yet they have opened a new path and make magical circles. It's said that a family master of the older generation once gained an ancient broken scroll about magical circles in a rock cave by chance, so he started to teach descendants to make magical circles since then. The family is also uncommonly powerful." Mu Yunfei could feel that Xing Jie's state changed slightly when he introduced the Jin family.
"At the end, it's our Xing family. We mainly use Bloodline Power, but we do not go to extremes like the other two families. We also use ritual articles and magical circles," Xing Jie continued.
Mu Yunfei nodded in secret and thought of the two ritual articles showing up on Xing He's body. The sudden change even made his Bloodline Sword suffer unspeakable losses.
"Look, in fact, Cold Coagulation Spring is transformed from a magical circle." While speaking, Xing Jie pointed to the center of the spring water.
Mu Yunfei looked in that direction and finally found that there were weird words indistinctly in the center of the pool. They were difficult to understand and quite mysterious, with faint golden light flashing.
He exclaimed in secret and had known more about this world. He didn't expect that in this modern world, there were some things that would only appear in movies or novels.
The introduction of the top three families made him know more about the existent forces, but by comparison, it sounded that the Xing family was more powerful. After all, they were skilled in the abilities that the two other families were good at. He finally understood why the Elemental Star Headquarters was so anxious to ally with the Xing family.
When they were talking, Xing He walked out of the inner mansion and came to them.
"Brother, you are back," Xing He greeted with extreme respect.
Judging from their body shapes, they could say that Xing He was Xing Jie's elder brother, yet Xing He with explosive muscles was so respectful to Xing Jie, which made Mu Yunfei more curious about the first young master.
"Yunfei, please come in. Father invites you three to enter," Xing He turned around and said after he saluted his brother.
"Okay. Thanks a lot," Mu Yunfei answered and then led his two partners to follow Xing He in.
Xing Jie also went in, while he didn't walk ahead of them but followed them in silence. His cyan clothes danced and looked graceful.
They entered the inner mansion. What Mu Yunfei felt first was great momentum, which was not from somebody but from all corners of the room. It gathered in the center, like all rivers running into sea. The momentum was not forceful but endless, like the sea holding hundreds of rivers.
He looked at the master's seat, to see that a middle-aged man was seated. His long black hair scattered on his shoulders randomly. He had a bronze-colored face, long brows spreading to the temples, a straight nose and a square mouth. His black and bright eyes were charming yet terrifying.
This was the master of the Xing family, Xing Ye, a great master with horrible strength in the Middle Term of Grade 4 at the Top Stage of Red Bloodline.
Mu Yunfei could feel that the momentum from that man could totally suppress him. If it weren't for the magical energy in the middle of the inner mansion, it might be difficult for him to breathe.
An elder stood next to the man. He was the only elder in the Xing family, Xing Zhen, also equal to the people at the Top Stage of Golden Bloodline, with the strength in the Initial Term of Grade 4 at the Top Stage of Red Bloodline.
Different from the middle-aged man, this old man had carefully combed his hair, and he had a hooked nose under his deep eyes, with faint silver halo enveloping his body. There was flowing silver light grain on his pure white robe which was a marvelous and exquisite creation excelling nature. He had a sword on his waist, and it was silver like jade, with soft light. He looked free from vulgarity, but only his deep eyes made people frightened.
Both of them were quite powerful, which was Mu Yunfei's first impression for them. He had only felt the same breath from the queen in the Thunder Sea, Lei Xueming. Had the two both reached the Top Stage of Golden Bloodline?
Mu Yunfei came near them slowly and then stopped, bowing. "I am Mu Yunfei, on behalf of the Elemental Star Headquarters. Nice to see you, Master."
Nana and Bei Linfeng also bowed and greeted. Mu Yunfei could feel it, and of course they could feel it, too. In front of such powerful men, the first thing they should do was try their best to show respect.
"Don't stand on ceremony," Xing Ye stated in a deep voice, and he gazed at Mu Yunfei and the other two. "Xing He has told us about the general situation, but I need to confirm again. Is what you said the truth?"
"It's absolutely true. I didn't tell anything false," Mu Yunfei answered, looking into Xing Ye's eyes.
"Kid, you need to be responsible for your words!" Xing Zhen who stood next to Xing Ye expressed and gazed at Mu Yunfei, with his sharp eyes, which made the latter feel a shiver down his spine.
"I can ensure that I said nothing false."
"How can you prove it?" Xing Ye still looked doubtful.
Such a family staying secluded knew the mystery of the universe, but they seldom got involved, so they got the information about the development of the forces among the planets later than others.
The news Mu Yunfei had brought shocked them a lot undoubtedly. Xing He didn't know the connections, but they knew. The planets had counterbalanced each other for thousands of years, yet the relationship among them was tenser and tenser now, while the Ice Planet had collapsed. Moreover, the Elemental Star Headquarters told these kids who had just come of age to send such a shocking message, so they doubted this information.
How to prove it? This question baffled Mu Yunfei. How could he prove something like this? Could he prove it with the great war in a few years?
However, till now, Mu Yunfei only made one-sided explanations indeed and didn't show any solid evidence.
"I have a way to let him prove it," Xing Zhen stated in a deep voice.
