C347 Study
After all, he was not someone to be trifled with since he was able to live in such a place. Furthermore, he left behind such a precious pill, so his identity must be extremely honorable.
Because the "Mystery City" was built by the Clear Heart Sect, Xia Ling also suspected that the person who stayed was the former Sect Leader, Spiritual Master Hee Soong. However, Hee Soong wasn't someone who liked luxury. There shouldn't be such decorations …
"This building actually has a third floor. Since I don't know who the owner is, maybe there will be an answer?" Xia Yanning suggested.
What he said made sense. Xia Ling's gaze was limited to this bedroom because of this ninth stage pill. It was too impossible to find the owner's identity from these indiscernible clues.
The third floor of this building was led up by a small staircase on the second floor. The third floor was even narrower than the second floor. In reality, it only had a few rooms.
However, it was a great harvest for Xia Ling.
This was because one of the rooms on the third floor belonged to the owner of the study.
When Xia Ling opened the door, he couldn't help but be shocked once again. He had originally thought that this building was extremely luxurious, but he hadn't thought that this room would be even more luxurious.
The floor was covered with a thick dark-red carpet with gold trim. It was as if he was stepping on thin air, light as a cloud. The tables, chairs, and bookcases were all made from the extremely southern part of the world by the extremely rare "Heavenly Cold Wood," which was complemented by large and small gems that were arranged like star discs.
Just a single step into this study room was enough to make one exclaim in admiration.
There were two rows of huge bookshelves filled with precious books. Next to the bookcase was a large desk and a chair. There were traces of people who had come here before, and there were even some messy books on the desk.
"These books..." Xia Yanning's eyes swept across the bookshelf and an expression of surprise immediately appeared on her face. They seem to be manuals related to cultivation techniques, and they look to be of the highest class! "
That's right, Xia Yanning was the eldest daughter and son of an influential family from Ningnan City. And now that she had seen this kind of cultivation technique, even though she had once cultivated the Dark Demon Domain's divine art [Sky Devil Disintegration], she still felt that it was extraordinary!
Actually, it wasn't just that.
Above these two rows of bookshelves, one of them was about cultivation techniques and martial arts — they were all of the best standard in the world — and the other was about refining pills, formations, smithing, and so on. Xia Ling skimmed through them roughly. Almost every book had an annotation on it.
It seemed that the owner of this study was indeed well-read.
"These books. Can you get me some of it? " The girl beside Xia Ling hesitated for a moment and asked.
Lili didn't even take the initiative to request for the precious medicinal herbs and the gold and silver items in front of them. This was because she was very clear that gold and silver was only an external object, and even if she gave away the precious medicinal ingredients to the Xia Family, it was unlikely to be used properly, so it was merely a reckless waste of natural resources.
However, after seeing these books, the young girl could no longer sit still.
What was the most important thing for an aristocratic family to establish itself in this world? It was just the word 'inheritance'.
This was because regardless of how strong one was or how much money one had, it would eventually flow over time. Although aristocratic families could always exist, the number of people in them would change from generation to generation. If he didn't have a good legacy, what would happen when the powerful seniors who supported the clan died?
Therefore, these books were the best inheritances of an aristocratic family. Any clan that could establish a foothold in the current era would have sufficient books to be proud of. The Xia Family was no exception.
Of course, even though there were a lot of books in Xia Family. However, compared to these books, the difference was like the difference between a firefly and the sun and the moon!
That was why Xia Yanning had asked Xia Ling for these books. If Xia Family could obtain these books … No, even if one possessed a third or a quarter of the Xia Family, their Ningnan City could be said to be able to cover the sky with one hand, and they might even have a chance of entering the Middle North!
It was just that Xia Yanning did not know at this time that in order to avoid the capital's Soong Family, the entire clan had been relocated to the south. With these books, there was only a single generation or two left. The Xia Family would soon be reborn!
"Hahahaha, of course there's no problem." This was the first time Xia Yanning made a request to Xia Ling, how could Xia Ling not agree?
"If we did not have your Magic Sword's power, the two of us would definitely not have been able to enter this building. Therefore, you can rest assured. Any gain from this, will definitely not lack Xia Family. "
Xia Ling thought for a while and said apologetically: "But …" That pill is truly of great use to me. And right now, I don't have the ability to meet the requirements and can use the Xia Family of a cultivator, so please assign it to me. "
Xia Yanning agreed after she heard Xia Ling's words. She did not want any God Transforming Pill from the start. In reality, the girl originally thought that even if Xia Ling took all the rewards from this exploration into his own, there was nothing wrong with it —
After all, his life was saved by this youth. If not for him, he might still be being controlled by the Magic Sword.
At this moment, Xia Ling's gaze had shifted to the wide desk. This desk was also made from "Freezing Sky Wood", and the workmanship was extremely good.
Moreover, the Freezing Sky Wood originally had the effect of raising one's consciousness and raising one's spirit. Generally speaking, even if it was an extremely wealthy family, they would only use it to create small items.
It was rare to find a desk like this.
Aside from a few scattered books, there were also others on this desk. There were still some papers. These papers were scattered around, and they looked as if they had been casually placed here.
However, the surface of the paper was not blank, but had traces of writing and drawing on it. However, the marks were extremely scrawling, and did not look like they were written on something at all. Instead, it looked like someone had scribbled something on a piece of paper.
Xia Ling's gaze only wandered across these few pieces of paper. However, something suddenly attracted his attention. Xia Ling's face revealed an expression of interest. He walked over to pick up a few pieces of paper and started reading.
It was obvious that this drawing was done by hand, but perhaps this person's strength had indeed reached a terrifying level. Even though he had drawn this drawing by hand, it was still very clear.
Even if it was only a rough estimate, it was enough to make one feel as if they were here right now!
