Chapter 437: Mountains and Earth

she feigned ignorance and led Yu Cangwu and the others directly to the back mountain.The back mountain has always been inhabited by beasts. Although it is cleaned every day, the smell and environment...Before departing, Jiang Yun left all five demon beasts in Xiao Village.

Although for the past six months, Kimura hadn't sent anyone to harass them, and even when Li Village was absorbed into Xiao Village, they didn't react at all, Ginger Cloud still had to be on guard.

……

The address of the Baijia Collection was chosen in the center of Baijia Land, which is also nearly ten thousand miles away from Xiao Village.

Even though everyone present was at the level of a Blessed Land, it still took them two days to catch up.

Originally, Ginger Cloud thought that the Hundred Families Gathering was just a hundred different tribes, each occupying a designated spot with a simple stall to sell their own wares.

But at this moment, seeing it with his own eyes, he realized he had underestimated the hundred families' gathering a bit.

Before Jiang Yun's eyes appeared a vast expanse of open land, dotted with hundreds of stone houses scattered across it in an orderly fashion.

Although this isn't a city, if you were to build walls around this open space, it would practically be a small town!

Although the styles of hundreds of stone houses are similar, each house has a different pattern painted on its outer wall.

Evidently, each pattern represents a tribe.

Besides, the height and location of each stone house are also different.

At the center stood a stone house dozens of feet high, and outside this stone house was a drawing of a tree.

The tree is a wood, nature. This stone house belongs to the village of Gui Mu.

"Ginger offerings, this is where a hundred families gather!"

Xiao Wangjie started introducing Jiang Yun, "This place wasn't like this before, the conditions were much simpler back then, but over all these years, it has become much more prosperous!"

Jiang Yun nodded and said: "The height and location of these stone houses, don't they represent the different statuses of the corresponding clans within the Hundred Families"

At this, even Li Yue looked at Jiang Yun with a hint of surprise.

Because Ginger Cloud said it right!

Originally, they all believed that although Gingercloud was powerful, his experience was bound to be lacking, after all, he was young.

But they didn't expect that Jiang Yun's eyesight was so sharp, he could see through the meaning symbolized by the arrangement of these stone houses at a glance.

"Not bad!"

Xiao Wangjie pointed to a stone house not far away, only two zhang high, and said: "That's our stone house."

Ginger carefully looked at the stone house.

Its height, among all the stone houses, was among the shortest, and its location was also extremely remote.

From this, we can see that Xiao Village's position among the Hundred Families is not at the bottom, but it's not very high either.

However, Ginger Cloud also discovered that on the outer wall of this stone house, the patterns painted were a large expanse of yellow earth.

Although Jiang Yun had become Xiao Village's offering and had stayed in Xiao Village for nearly half a year, he knew nothing about the cultivation methods they practiced.

After all, this belongs to the privacy of each group, and he didn't ask.

But now, seeing this vast land formation, coupled with the fact that Xiao Wangjie's attack on me back then also caused a major earthquake, with rumbling sounds emanating from beneath,

This moved something in his heart: "Could the cultivation method practiced by Xiao Village be related to the power of the earth"

"If that's really the case, then when we get back, I'll find a chance to borrow their clan's cultivation techniques and have a look!"

Jiang Yun's physical body and Dao body could already manipulate some earth power, but his main body was still unable to do so.

If the Xiao family truly could control earth power, then their techniques might offer him some inspiration and help.

At this time, Li Yue also pointed to another stone house and said: "Ginger Offering, that's ours!"

Li Cun's stone house was noticeably taller than those in Xiao Cun, and its location was quite good. The patterns painted on the outer wall depicted a mountain.

"Mountains, earth!"

Looking at the two different patterns, Ginger Cloud pondered deeply, then glanced thoughtfully at Li Yue.

Li Yue's persistent desire to annex Xiao Village, and even his acceptance of being incorporated into it now, could also be because of the cultivation techniques practiced in Xiao Village

After all, mountains rise from the earth, and both belong to the element of Earth in the five elements. They are therefore more or less related.

In the ancient primordial world, there were no sects, only families and tribes. If one wanted to obtain more cultivation techniques, the simplest way was to invade and annex other tribes.

Although Ginger Cloud had these thoughts swirling in her mind, there was not the slightest trace of expression on her face. She calmly said, "Then you guys go ahead and get busy. I'll just take a stroll here!"

"Great!"

As Xiao Wangjie agreed, he pulled out a stone tablet from his bosom. It also had the pattern of the earth on it. He handed it to Jiang Yun, his face slightly flushed, and said: "Elder Jiang, this is the token of our village."

Obviously, Xiao Wangjie was a bit embarrassed about his own token.

Because in a hundred families gathering, tokens also serve as a symbol of identity.

If you hold tokens issued by a large group, then the treatment will be different, and you will be looked upon favorably wherever you go.

You can even enjoy lower prices when purchasing items.

Therefore, Xiao Wangjie felt that letting a strong figure like Jiang Yun hold his Xiao Village token would really embarrass Jiang Yun.

Jiang Yun didn't mind at all. He readily accepted the token and fastened it to his waist, saying, "Alright, I'm leaving."

Just as Jiang Yun was about to enter the Baijiaji, a sudden burst of laughter came from afar.

Then, a loud voice boomed: "Long time no see, Wang Jie! How is your father doing I was planning to visit him these days!"

Upon hearing this, Ginger Cloud's gaze naturally turned towards the direction the voice came from.

Just then, I saw a plump old man with a youthful face and crow's hair, his face flushed, riding on a black crane, flying towards me.

Behind him, there followed a vast throng of forty or fifty people, each person with a bird serving as their mount.

Just by looking at this style, Ginger Cloud could guess that the other party's background was not small, and they were extremely wealthy!

Jiang Yun was truly a bit surprised. The weak Xiao Village actually managed to climb up to this powerful and influential clan.

Xiao Wangjie whispered to Jiang Yun: "His name is Qian Jin, the head of the Qian family!"

"The Qian family is also a prominent clan within the Hundred Families. They are renowned for their alchemical prowess and hold a high status, so much so that even Kimura treats them with utmost respect. My father was once saved by their patriarch!"

Over the years, he has been very frequent in our village. Every time he comes, he brings some medicinal pills for my father. He's considered one of our few good friends from other clans!

Originally, Ginger Cloud was just a little curious about this money. However, when he heard the last sentence, his eyes suddenly flashed with a cold light.

Previously, he pointed out that Xiao Yun's old ailment was due to the person who saved him possibly lacking in medical skill and not completely removing the poison.

But in fact, he could be almost certain that the poison in Xiao Yun's body was intentionally left behind by the person who detoxified him!

Because detoxification, the first thing to detoxify should be the poison in the wound. This is common sense!

Then, deliberately leaving poison unsolved, and offering a discount, taking the initiative to be friendly, doing favors for no reason, this money entering, it must have some plan for Xiao Village.

Jiang Yun suddenly realized that although he had entered Xiao Village by chance, it seemed that the situation in this village was not as simple as he had imagined!

First published on the Traditional Chinese Novel Network had no mood to concern herself with these matters. Instead, she turned her gaze to Xia Zhongtian, wanting to see how the head of the Xia family would handle today's events and how he would deal with...
