Lingjia Town.

In the early morning, it was just dawn, and the young Qin Lie got up, washed up briefly, and walked straight to the Ling family canteen.

Qin Lie, who is in a coarse linen, has a thin figure and looks pretty pretty, but his eyes are blank and empty, without a trace of spirit, giving people a feeling of losing their soul.

Along the way, many young warriors in Lingjia Town also got up early, and many young people who saw Qin Lie smiled kindly.

"Qin Lie is early!"

When Ling Feng saw Qin Lie walking in, he grinned and reached out to greet him.

Unfortunately, Qin Lie seemed to be unable to hear the voices of others, his expression was still dull, and his steps did not stop. He crossed Lingfeng and continued to move forward.

"Brother Feng, why are you talking to a fool? You know he can't respond to you, but you still say hello every morning when you see him?" Ling Ying, wearing a bright yellow outfit, had a plump figure, 28 years old, and was quite beautiful, with a high breast bulge, which was fascinating. She looked at Qin Lie contemptuously and said casually.

Several young men and women from the Ling family around him looked cold and unhappy when they heard Ling Ying's words.

Ling Ying snorted, turned a blind eye to everyone's eyes, raised her full chest and disdained her pretty face.

Most of those young men and women were in the fourth or fifth level of body refining, and were not taken seriously by Ling Ying, who had reached the sixth level of body refining.

In her eyes, only Ling Feng, who has reached the seventh level of body refining, was the only one in her eyes.

Ling Feng frowned slightly, "Xiaoying, you have not been to Lingjia Town for a long time and have not received favor from Grandpa Qin Lie, so you have some opinions about Qin Lie. I don't blame you. But we, the Ling family, were helped by Grandpa Qin Shan when Grandpa Qin Shan was alive. Even though Grandpa Qin Shan passed away two years ago, we still remember his care. I hope you can give Qin Lie the respect he deserves for our sake."

Ling Ying was slightly stunned, "His grandpa is very awesome?"

"Grandpa Qin Shan is a weapon refiner!" Ling Feng shouted lightly.

Ling Ying was solemnly respected, "Fan, Xuan, Earth, Heaven, God, each level is divided into seventh grade. What level of weapon refiner is he? Has he refined spiritual weapons for the Ling family?"

"No." Ling Feng shook his head, "Grandpa Qin Shan only knows how to repair spiritual weapons below the fifth level of the mortal level."

"Oh, I'm so scary. I thought it was so powerful, but that's just that?" Ling Ying patted her plump breasts and smiled slightly exaggeratedly.

"For us, this is already very powerful." Ling Feng's expression remained unchanged and said in a deep voice: "Five years ago, Grandpa Qin Shan brought Qin Lie to our Lingjia Town and found our heads to discuss. At the cost of helping the Ling family warriors repairing mortal-level spiritual weapons, he asked for the mining rights of many mines in Yaoshan, and stayed in Lingjia Town with Qin Lie."

"In the next three years, Grandpa Qin Shan took Qin Lie to and between Lingjia Town and Yaoshan's mine caves. During this period, Grandpa Qin Shan was responsible for repairing any broken spiritual weapons of the fifth grade or below. As long as the grade does not exceed the fifth grade or above, no matter how severe the damage is, he can restore it to its original state and its power will not decrease at all!"

"Peng!"

A flash of fire ignited on Ling Feng's wrist, and the red ring on his wrist suddenly shone with a rainbow!

Immediately, the red ring magically transformed into a hammer with flames. The hammer was only half the length of his arm, and it was dark red all over. Clusters of flame clouds were imprinted on the hammer like tattoos, revealing bursts of hot air.

"My Fire Cloud Hammer is a second-grade spiritual weapon of the mortal level, and it is my lifeblood. Three years ago, in the Extreme Cold Mountains, I was penetrated by a gulp of cold air by the spirit beast Ice Soul Python. The Fire Cloud Hammer helped me resist the cold air and made me survive by chance, but the Fire Cloud Hammer was seriously damaged. If it weren't for Grandpa Qin Shan's helping to repair it, the Fire Cloud Hammer would have been scrapped long ago."

"There are many members of the Ling family who have suffered damage to spiritual weapons like me. Fortunately, with Grandpa Qin Shan here, those damaged spiritual weapons can be repaired, otherwise the family's losses will be extremely heavy." Ling Feng looked at Qin Lie's figure from afar and sighed.

"But he has died of illness for two years." Ling Ying said in surprise.

"The Ling family is grateful for their kindness! Qin Lie is actually very pitiful. When he was ten years old, he came to Lingjia Town with his grandfather. This is what happened. When Qin Shan was there, someone took good care of him. With the death of Qin Shan, in the past two years...ah." Ling Feng changed his mind and couldn't help but sigh.

"Wouldn't the second lady be even more pitiful? I heard... the head of the family once agreed to Qin Shan that next month, on the second lady's fifteenth birthday, let her and Qin Lie get engaged first? You are from Lingjia Town, a native of Lingjia Town. Is this true?" Ling Ying suddenly lowered his voice, approached Ling Feng, and whispered: "How could the head of the family agree to the second lady and Qin Lie engagement? Isn't this pushing the second lady into the fire pit?"

"I don't know." Ling Feng was also puzzled about this matter.

In his opinion, even if the head of the family had made an agreement with Qin Shan, with Qin Shan's death, the agreement would probably be impossible to count now.

...

Ling Family Canteen.

Three square wooden tables are made up into a long dining table, with buns and side dishes placed on the table. Ling Chengye, the head of the Ling family, sat upright, and on both sides are his sister-in-law Du Jiaolan and his third brother Ling Chengzhi. Du Jiaolan is next to her two sons Du Heng and Du Fei, and the two girls beside Ling Chengzhi are his eldest brother's daughters, Ling Yushi and Ling Xuanxuan.

The three brothers of the Ling family, the eldest brother Ling Chengye, the second brother Ling Chenghui, the third brother Ling Chengzhi, Ling Chenghui broke through the Kaiyuan realm ten years ago and became possessed by evil spirits. He accidentally died of violent death. His wife Du Jiaolan took her two sons Du Heng, who were named Du Fei, and Du Fei stayed in the Ling family and continued to practice with the help of the Ling family's resources.

In this world called the Spirit Realm, there is an endless ocean. There are many continents located on the ocean. Various creature races live on the continent. They constantly temper themselves with their ubiquitous spiritual energy and eternally pursue the ultimate mystery between the world.

Here, the strong man stands like a huge mountain peak, with spiritual weapons that destroy the world shocking the world, and the power of warriors with strict hierarchy covers every remote corner of the world like a spider web!

Here, not only are warriors and spiritual weapons clearly divided into levels, but even the crisscrossing complex forces built by various families, sects, and chambers of commerce also have rigorous class levels.

The spiritual realm martial arts practice is divided into ten realms, namely: body refining realm, Kaiyuan realm, all-image realm, Tongwei realm, Ruyi realm, Broken realm, Nirvana realm, Immortal realm, Void realm, Domain realm, Basic body refining realm, which is divided into nine levels, and the subsequent realm is divided into three small levels: early stage, mid stage, and late stage.

Similarly, magical spiritual weapons and powerful weapon refiners also have clear levels, namely: mortal level, mysterious level, earth level, heaven level, god level, and each level has seven levels.

What's even more peculiar is that even those families and sects have a high level, divided into five levels: bluestone, black iron, red copper, silver, and gold. They are like pyramids, oppressing and restraining layers.

Among them, the lowest level of bluestone forces are the most basic forces in the spiritual realm. The large number is as numerous as sand in the desert and cannot be counted. They can only rely on powerful forces to survive and practice, and are trampled on their dignity.

As for the golden-level forces at the top of the pyramid, they are all the most peak-level and dazzling existences. They not only have the most powerful warriors in the world, the most magical spiritual weapons, the vastest territorial mineral veins, and the most mysterious forbidden secret realm, but also command many silver-level, red copper-level, black iron-level, and bluestone-level forces!

If they convey one order, they can change the color of the world, make the mountains and rivers dyed red by blood, and make hundreds of millions of creatures disappear!

The Ling family is just a small family force that cannot even reach the power of the bluestone level. The Ling family and several surrounding small families also rely on the bluestone level power of the Bingyan City. They have to pay enough offerings to the Xingyun Pavilion every year to get the protection of the Xingyun Pavilion and gain a foothold in Lingjia Town.

"Tread!"

The footsteps sounded from far to near. Soon, Qin Lie appeared on time and mechanized to the dining table opposite Qin Chengye. He sat down quietly, picked up his bowl and started eating.

For five years, Qin Lie has come to eat on time every morning. Although Qin Lie is just a fool in the eyes of everyone in Lingjia Town, his habit of eating on time has never changed. In the first three years, Qin Shan brought him with him. After Qin Shan passed away, Qin Lie came alone in the past two years and still maintained good habits.

Every morning after dinner, Qin Lie would enter the Yaoshan Mountain behind Lingjia Town and walk into the mine caves in the mountains. It would not be until dark that he would return to Lingjia Town before dinner. After having dinner with the Ling family, he would return to his residence alone to rest.

Day after day, year after year, he lived like this, and his life had never had any waves or changes.

It has been five years since no one knows what he and his grandfather are doing in Yaoshan Mine. Even the head of the family Ling Chengye has been puzzled.

"Hey!" Du Fei couldn't help but sneer, glanced at Qin Lie, and said mockingly: "My future brother-in-law is okay. Next month, even if Xuanxuan and him are engaged, it's nothing. Just take it as raising a well-behaved and weird pet dog."

After saying that, Du Fei looked at Ling Xuanxuan with a strange smile.

Ling Xuanxuan, wearing a fiery red leather armor, has her delicate figure and charm. She is very beautiful and has a pair of smart eyes. She is only fifteen years old and has a very famous reputation.

"Peng!"

Ling Xuanxuan's exposed half of the plain white jade hand hit the table heavily. The rice bowl in front of her was shocked and half a bowl of porridge splashed onto the faces of Du Jiaolan and his family of three opposite. Although Du Jiaolan, Du Heng and Du Fei reacted very quickly, they were still splashed with porridge.

"I won't get engaged to him even if I die!"

Before Du Jiaolan got angry, Ling Xuanxuan stood up with a bang, regardless of her father Ling Chengye's face looked ugly and rushed out of the house like a ball of flame.

When she passed by the wooden door, she slapped her little hand and a ball of orange flame suddenly shot out. The wide wooden door suddenly exploded. Before she could land, Ling Xuanxuan's exquisite body had disappeared.

Ling Chengye was about to scold him, but suddenly he was stunned. He looked at the broken wood chips that fell to the ground, his eyes slightly brightened, and he showed a thoughtful expression.

"Brother! When did Xuanxuan enter the seventh level of body refining? The spiritual power overflows, which is clearly the unique symbol of the seventh level of body refining!" Ling Chengzhi slapped the table excitedly, his face full of surprise, "At the age of fifteen, Xuanxuan's talent is more amazing than Yushi! Judging from her posture, before she was twenty years old, she will definitely be able to enter the Kaiyuan Realm, Kaiyuan Realm... She will definitely be favored by Xingyun Pavilion in the future!"

Ling Chengye endured his inner excitement, coughed lightly, and asked Ling Yushi, "When did Xuanxuan break through?"

Ling Yushi, in a green long skirt, had long black hair draped over her shoulders, her delicate face looked as elegant as orchid, and her white skin as white as jade. Even when sitting, she looked tall and attractive, which made Du Heng beside her look hot, and her eyes never moved slightly away from her.

"My little sister just broke through seven days ago. She was excited to tell her father the good news immediately, but unexpectedly..." Ling Yushi changed her mind and sighed: "I didn't expect that two days ago she heard that her father had agreed to Grandpa Qin Shan very long ago to get engaged to Qin Lie on her birthday, so..."

Ling Yushi didn't continue to say it, Ling Chengye had guessed the reason for the incident and looked helpless.

"call!"

At this moment, Qin Lie, who had been burying his hardships since he came in, suddenly stood up, as if he had not heard everyone's speeches or conflicts from beginning to end, as usual, he would go away as soon as he had enough.

He headed straight to Yaoshan behind Lingjia Town.

"Brother, I have a few words to talk to you alone." Ling Chengzhi suddenly stood up and winked at his elder brother. After Qin Lie, he also left the canteen.

Ling Chengye followed with thoughtfulness.

On the rugged mountain road, Ling Chengye, Ling Chengzhi and Qin Lie kept a distance and walked towards Yaoshan. Their eyes were floating on Qin Lie and they whispered.

"It's been five years since Qin Shan brought Qin Lie here. The grandfather and grandson were in the mine during the day. Brother, don't you be curious about what they did in the mine? What did they discover?"

"Of course I'm curious. But Qin Shan and I have made an agreement that we would not break into the mine for no reason. Besides, our Ling family has been reclaiming the mine cave in Yaoshan for many years and has not found any valuable spirit stones at all. Otherwise, how could I agree to give the mine cave to his grandfather and grandson?"

"What's going on with Xuanxuan and Qin Lie's marriage? Brother, I know you won't sacrifice Xuanxuan's lifelong happiness, why?"

"Before Qin Shan passed away, I insisted that I agree to this matter. Seeing his help to us over the years, I gritted my teeth and agreed. But it was not what you thought. He should just hope that after his death, Qin Lie will be able to get the care of our Ling family as always."

“How to say it?”

"It's just an engagement. Qin Lie and Xuan Xuan are both fifteen years old. He asked our Ling family to take care of Qin Lie until he was seventeen years old. When Qin Lie was seventeen years old, any of Qin Lie and I could unilaterally terminate the engagement. The existence of this engagement is because he hopes that Qin Lie will have the status of a son-in-law in the past few years, and the Ling family will not do anything to him, that's all."

"Don't worry, Xuanxuan has now broken through to the seventh level of body refining and is destined to enter the Xingyun Pavilion in the future. Naturally, I will not let Qin Lie affect her future. Once the time comes, I will terminate the engagement immediately!"

"So that's how it is." Ling Chengzhi nodded. He pondered for a moment and said, "Brother, I don't know if I should say it or not, hey..."

"If you have something to say!" the head of the Ling family frowned and shouted.

"As you said, engagement is just a formality. You don't have to engage Qin Lie and Xuanxuan. It's okay to let him get along with Yushi? Even if Yushi is two years older than Qin Lie, it should be okay?" Ling Chengzhi tentatively said.

The head of the Ling family suddenly turned gloomy.

"Brother, my sister-in-law left early. I know that you love Yushi and Xuanxuan the same love, and I am the same." Ling Chengzhi carefully said with a serious expression: "But even if you get engaged, it will affect the reputation of your daughter's family. Xuanxuan is only fifteen years old this year, and she has reached the seventh level of body refining! Usually, you and I can see that her cultivation talent and her understanding of spiritual skills are far stronger than Yushi. Xuanxuan's future... is absolutely unlimited. She will be the real hope of our Ling family in the future!"

At this point, Ling Chengzhi looked solemn, "In the future, Xuanxuan will enter a higher warrior world and reach a level that we cannot reach! In this case, she may marry powerful forces that we cannot imagine, but if she has ever had an engagement, there will be a stain, which will affect her future..."

"Third brother, you are becoming more and more realistic." The head of the Ling family shook his head and sighed, "I am considering this matter. Alas, Yushi is hardworking and quiet. If I want to do this, I know she will definitely accept it, but I am really cruel to her..."

"For the future of the family and Xuanxuan's future, please consider it carefully." Ling Chengzhi persuaded.

The head of the Ling family was speechless for a long time. After a long time, he said, "Let's not mention this matter yet. You have been in charge of Yaoshan for many years. I have never asked much about it. Today you insist on calling me to go to Yaoshan. What's going on?"

"You will know when you arrive. I vaguely feel that this matter may be related to Qin Lie."
