Chapter 319 News
With his hands behind his back, Jiang Yao searched the pharmacy carefully again.

Although Xu An said before his death that apart from the few herbs he gave to Jiang Yao, there was nothing else in the medicine shop that could help with cultivation, Jiang Yao would only believe half of his words and definitely not all of them.

But it's a pity that with his vision, he searched everywhere in the pharmacy and saw a lot of common medicinal materials, but he didn't find anything he needed.

"Li Gongfeng, I am quite satisfied with the letter of surrender you handed in."

"You have been serving as a worshiper in the Xu family for several years. You should have a certain understanding of their strength."

"Can you tell me how many warriors there are in the main branch of the Xu family? What is the strength of the strongest among them?"

……

Returning to the yard behind the pharmacy, Jiang Yao walked slowly towards Xu An's residence and asked Li Gongfeng who was following closely behind him.

Before, he lived in Xujia Town for some time under the name of Lu Changsheng's distant relative, but as an ordinary person, his understanding of the main line of the Xu family was just hearsay, and it was difficult to distinguish the truth from the false.

Ever since Xu Jinhua died in his hands, he has completely stood against the Xu family.

Although he suffered a great loss in the confrontation with the Xu family, it was only because he ran faster.

With his personality, although he has always been low-key and doesn't like to cause trouble, if someone provokes him, he will definitely retaliate many times over.

After killing Lu Changsheng, he fled to the wilderness while being hunted by a group of warriors from the Xu family. He lived with the strange creatures in the dilapidated temple for such a long time, and he always held this resentment in his heart.

Since this Mr. Li was so aware of the current situation, Jiang Yao naturally wanted to ask him some questions so as to have a deeper understanding of the Xu family's strength.

"Master Jiang, including me, the Xu family originally had nine priests, but after the death of Liu Laoqi and Leng Fang, there are only seven priests left in the Xu family now."

"Among these worshippers, two have already entered the realm of bone forging, and the rest are only at the stage of skin training. Their strength is not much different from mine."

"As for the Xu family's own warriors, there are probably about twenty of them. I'm not sure about the exact number."

"The martial arts heritage they possess is of a higher level and is relatively complete. In addition, they control almost all the resources in Xujia Town. Most of the warriors in the Xu family have already entered the realm of bone forging."

"In addition, it can be confirmed that Xu Changqing, the head of the Xu family, and the great elder Xu Changshou are both powerful people in the Refining Organ Realm."

"There are even rumors that the Xu family has an old ancestor who has reached the Perfection of Organ Refining Realm. In order to break through the bottleneck and enter the Blood Exchange Realm, he has been in seclusion for many years."

"But this old ancestor, I have stayed in the Xu Mansion for seven years, but I have never seen him in person. I don't know whether these rumors about him are true or false."

……

In response to Jiang Yao's questions, Li Gongfeng told him everything he knew.

He spoke eloquently for more than ten minutes before he told Jiang Yao roughly what he knew about the main line of the Xu family.

Although Jiang Yao had never truly believed in Li Gongfeng, he did not think that he would make up stories to deceive him.

With Jiang Yao's current strength, even if he uses his Yin Sha body, he can only rival the Lian Zang realm at best.

Moreover, because he does not have many means and is inferior to the warriors in this world in terms of fighting experience, there is a high possibility that he will not be their match if he meets the two warriors in the Internal Refining Realm that the Xu family has already confirmed.

Not to mention, there is a high possibility that there is an ancestor at the blood exchange level hiding in the Xu family mansion.

"Fortunately, I have always been cautious and did not rashly break into the Xu Mansion..." Jiang Yao sighed and secretly felt fortunate.

He only got two or three medicinal herbs from Huichun Hall that could be used to assist in cultivation. If the overall strength of the Xu family mansion was not too strong, he might have the urge to sneak into the Xu mansion and take a look around.

Now, after listening to what Li Gongsheng said, he had already thrown those previous thoughts out of his mind.

"How old is the old ancestor of the Xu family?"

"After entering the realm of refining internal organs, can my life span be extended to a certain extent?"

"Otherwise, he is old and weak, his Qi and blood have already declined, where would he get the courage to challenge the blood exchange realm?"

After a moment of silence, Jiang Yao suddenly thought of this question and continued speaking.

"Master Jiang, I haven't even seen what the ancestor of the Xu family looks like, so how would I know his age?" With a strange look on his face, Li Gongsheng sighed.

Afterwards, he thought for a moment and added, "In Xujia Town, the average person can only live to about 40 years old."

"Compared to ordinary people, we warriors have a much longer lifespan. If we die of old age, living to 60 or 70 years old shouldn't be a problem."

"The head of the Xu family, Xu Changqing, and the great elder, Xu Changshou, are both in their forties. The ancestor of the Xu family must be much older than them."

"As for whether one's life span can be extended after entering the Refining Organs Realm? I really don't know. I've only heard people say that after completing the four realms of martial arts and achieving innateness, one's life span will be greatly extended."

……

Listening to what Li Gongfeng said, Jiang Yao couldn't help but start to ponder.

With the data displayed on the panel as a reference, he can be sure that no matter whether he is training his skin or strengthening his bones, his lifespan has never increased at all.

In Xujia Town, ordinary people do not live long. Besides the fact that they lack food and clothing and often go hungry, a big part of the reason is that they have not developed the habit of drinking boiled water, and their stomachs are full of parasites.

People of Jiang Yao's generation also had a stomach full of worms when they were young. After eating a few pagoda candies, they would excrete piles of roundworms.

Compared with ordinary people, the reason why warriors' lifespans are much longer is because their digestive abilities are greatly enhanced, and they can accurately control their bodies and kill all the parasites in their stomachs.

"The innate realm can significantly increase one's lifespan?" Jiang Yao's eyes lit up when he heard this news from Li Gongfeng.

For ordinary warriors, because the martial arts inheritance they have obtained is incomplete and the upper limit is not high, let alone the innate realm, even if they want to complete the four realms of martial arts, it seems to be just a luxury.

But Jiang Yao is different from them. The Wild Dragon Fist he practices, to the extreme, can allow him to enter the innate realm.

Coupled with his natural talent of God rewarding hard work, he can ignore any bottleneck in cultivation. With such a foundation, as long as time is enough, it should only be a matter of time before he steps into the innate realm of martial arts.

"I have nine years left to live. I will set a small goal first. I hope I can successfully enter the innate realm within three years." Although he appeared calm on the surface, Jiang Yao secretly swore in his heart.

To be honest, he actually wanted to turn three years into one year. After all, three years here would be thirty years in the outside world.

At that time, even if he successfully stepped into the innate realm and returned to the real world, the outside world would have changed beyond recognition and he would have no idea what it had become.

However, considering that he had only just tempered his bones and was still a long way from reaching the innate level, it was not very reliable to achieve that level in just one year. So when he swore, he changed one year to three years.

"Master Li, do you know when the Xu family will send a caravan to Black Rock City?" Putting aside all the distracting thoughts in his mind, Jiang Yao spoke again and asked.

He didn't find many spiritual herbs in Huichun Hall, and he didn't dare to force his way into the Xu family mansion because of his lack of strength. If he wanted to get resources that could be used to assist in his cultivation, he could only focus on the caravan.
