Chapter 24: Upheaval (3)

Xiao Lie originally had great expectations for the people from Xiao Zong, and the son of the sect master of Xiao Zong must have been a dragon-like figure in the sky.

But at first sight, it was a big disappointment. He didn't see the aura, demeanor, self-cultivation and appropriate arrogance that the direct descendants of the great sect should have, but only saw the arrogance in his eyes and the uncomfortable gloom in his eyes, like a gentleman who grew up in pampering and sloppy horses. But when he thought about it, he was relieved...... After all, this small Xiao Sect, Xiao Zong couldn't put it in his eyes at all, how could he really send any "big shots" over. The identity of a "son of the sect master" only superficially shows the importance of the dead Xiao Zheng.

"Dad, just now I heard from them that you and the sect master went to meet Xiao Zong's people, and you came back so soon?" Xiao Lingxi just came over to deliver food to Xiao Lie, and asked with curiosity: "Are Xiao Zong's people already here? What are they like? Isn't it particularly scary in momentum?"

Xiao Lingxi's words reminded him of the old man who was following Xiao Yanyun, and nodded: "Xiao Zong's people, of course, are unfathomable. However, Xi'er, in the past few days that Xiao Zong's people are here, you try not to contact them, the young man who took the lead is not a good person. Avoid it if you can. ”

"Huh?" Xiao Lingxi blinked his eyes in confusion, and then nodded lightly: "I know Dad, in fact, I was a little afraid of them, after all, they are Xiao Zong's people, they must be super super powerful." ”

"Even if you're curious, try not to get close to them. Xiao Lie admonished again, took a light breath, and walked into the courtyard with a heavy heart.

"Dad, do you seem to have something on your mind, is there something special going on?"

Xiao Lie was stunned for a moment, then shook his head: "It's nothing......" After a pause, thinking that if he didn't say it, this delicate-minded daughter might not be at ease all day, so he had to say slowly: "When the people of Xiao Sect came here, they brought a gift called 'Tong Xuan San', listening to that Xiao Crazy Cloud, this Tong Xuan San has a good repair effect on the broken Xuan Vein." So ......"

"Ahh Repairing Xiao Che's Xuan Vein has always been her greatest wish, and in the past few years, she has also been working hard with Xiao Lie to find various possible methods. Xiao Lie's words were tantamount to heavenly immortal sounds to her.

"Xiao Zong's elixir, the effect is by no means comparable to ordinary elixirs, maybe it can really play a miraculous effect. Speaking of this, Xiao Lie's expression slowly dimmed: "It's just that the main function of Tongxuan is to speed up the cultivation speed within a certain period of time. Now, the door master and they all regard this 'Tong Xuan San' as a treasure, and let them use the 'Tong Xuan San' on Che'er, who is useless in their eyes...... There is little hope. ”

Xiao Lingxi's expression froze, Xiao Lie's words were like a basin of cold water to extinguish all her excitement, she bit her lip, and said resolutely: "No matter what method you use, you must win Tong Xuansan over." Xiao Che is not useless! He is the person who needs to be dissipated the most!"

"I'll do my best. Looking at his daughter's expression, Xiao Lie let out a long sigh. But I knew very well in my heart how little hope there was for Tong Xuansan...... Or rather, it's simply impossible.

..............................

Night falls.

"I saw Xiao Zong's Xiao Crazy Cloud today. ”

There was a slight candlelight in the room, Xia Tianyue sat on the edge of the bed, and said lightly.

"Oh...... What kind of person is it?" Xiao Che yawned and asked casually, looking unconcerned.

"People live up to their name. Thinking of Xiao Qiyun's eyes looking at her, Xia Qianyue's brows were slightly lame, and a touch of disgust flashed in her eyes. Her master told her that among the four sons of the sect master of the Xiao sect, the other three sons can be regarded as dragons among people, but this fourth son is a full straw bag, but he is the most favored by the sect master, perhaps because he is the youngest and the only son born to the main room.

"It's normal, the people that the Xiao Sect will send to this place will know what kind of goods it will be with just thinking about it. But it won't get in my way anyway, at most I'll go through the motions tomorrow. Xiao Che shrugged his shoulders and said, then suddenly frowned, his face became slightly solemn, and he raised his head and asked, "Wife Tilting Moon, you said you saw him?"

"That's right...... What?" Xia Tingyue looked sideways.

Xiao Che raised his hand and nodded his chin, and suddenly said, "You said before that he is a very bad reputation, this kind of goods...... Phew, Lady Tilting Moon, if I'm not mistaken, your master should be near Liuyun City, right?"

“...... How do you know?" a hint of surprise flashed across Xia Tianyue's face.

Xiao Che didn't explain, and said with a serious face: "Since this is the case, find a way to contact your master, and let her come to this place tomorrow to ......" After thinking about it, his expression became relaxed again: "Since your master is nearby, it is estimated that it will not be a big deal, sleep." ”

Xia Qianyue raised her eyebrows slightly, thought carefully for a while, and then thought of Xiao Qiyun's eyes looking at her in the afternoon, and finally understood the meaning of Xiao Che's words, her expression was suddenly moved, and she subconsciously reached out and pinched an ice-like transmission note on her waist.

Looking at Xiao Che arranging the blanket spread there in the corner of the wall, her eyes flickered slightly, and her lips buzzed several times in a row before she finally made a voice: "Go to bed and sleep." ”

"Huh?" Xiao Che turned around, widened his eyes and said, "Lady Tilting Moon, what did you say?"

Xia Tianyue turned her face directly, not letting him see her expression at this time, and said coldly: "I didn't hear it!"

"I heard it! How could I not have heard it!" Xiao Che hurriedly nodded like a chicken pecking rice, threw the blanket in his hand, quickly threw himself on the bed, and looked at Xia Tianyue with a smile: "Wife Tianyue, will you sleep inside or outside tonight?"

"......" Xia Tianyue didn't speak, and with a wave of her hand, she extinguished all the red candles in an instant. The room was suddenly dark, and she secretly breathed a sigh of relief in her heart, reached out and pushed Xiao Che inside, pulled the blanket, covered the two of them, and lay down with her back to Xiao Che, and said in a cold voice: "Don't think too much, I'm just trying to help me regulate my body at three o'clock in the morning...... Don't do anything you shouldn't do! or I'll never let you sleep in a bed again!"

"Obey, dear wife!" Xiao Che pulled the quilt, sniffed the residual girl's body fragrance on it, and said beautifully.

Now she has to be called "wife" by Xiao Che dozens of times a day, from the initial anger, to now it is not only extremely natural to hear, but also gives her an indescribable feeling of "I am his wife". This subtle change made her panic and even more dazed. She closed her eyes, trying not to think about the things that disturbed her mind, and it wasn't long before she fell asleep peacefully.

Before I knew it, it was three o'clock in the morning, which was the darkest time before dawn, and the whole Xiaomen was quiet, except for the occasional buzzing of mosquitoes.

In the darkness, there was a slight "squeak" sound in Xiao Lingxi's courtyard, and the closed door slowly opened with the sound, and a petite black shadow slowly poked out, and after looking around for a while, it quickly rushed out.

Before the black shadow's body could step out of the courtyard door, a tall gray shadow suddenly fell from the sky and landed in front of her, and a girl's exclamation sounded, followed by a strict voice that was trying to suppress: "Xi'er, where are you going at such a late hour?"

"Ahh......h Daddy!" The startled black shadow pulled down the face towel on his face, revealing a beautiful girl's face, which was Xiao Lingxi. Looking at Xiao Lie, who suddenly appeared in front of her, she panicked for a moment: "I...... I...... I ......"

"Alas!" Xiao Lie let out a long sigh and said in a low voice: "Xi'er, you're going to steal Xuansan, right?"

"I ...... I ......" Xiao Lingxi lowered his head, and he was stunned for a while.

"You are my biological daughter, what are you thinking in your heart, can I still not know?" Xiao Che sighed again and patted his daughter on the shoulder: "When you left me in the afternoon, I felt that your eyes were wrong, so I didn't worry about coming over and guarding...... Sure enough, you have the intention of stealing Xuansan...... Xi'er, you are really nonsense, do you know how dangerous this is? That Tong Xuansan is not an ordinary thing, it is a gift from Xiao Zong, if your deeds are discovered, it will be a groundbreaking on Xiao Zong's head, and then the four people of Xiao Zong will punish you, don't talk about me, no one in this Liuyun City can save you at all. ”

Xiao Lingxi lowered his head and bit his lip: "I...... I know all of this. But...... But...... Xiao Che is so pitiful, he is obviously so good, but he has been laughed at, looked down upon, and treated as waste by everyone, if he can repair the Xuan Vein, then, he will not be ridiculed again, and he will not be worse than anyone else......"

Xiao Lie opened his mouth, and a painful expression flashed on his face.

"I often wonder why it was Xiao Che who was abolished by the Xuanmai, not me...... This world is so unfair to him...... Daddy, do you know how sad I feel when I see Xiao Che being ridiculed and pretending to be indifferent to comfort me...... If I can repair his veins, I can be considered a thief...... Even if I am punished by death, I am willing to ...... a hundred times."

As she spoke, Xiao Lingxi's eyes were already full of tears, she covered her cheeks with her hands, and finally couldn't help sobbing.

Xiao Lie's face was violently moved, and looking at his crying daughter, his heart was also sour. He comforted softly: "Xi'er, I know that you are dedicated to Che'er, but if you do this without saying the consequences, the box of Tongxuansan Xiao Yunhai was not handed over to anyone after getting it, it should be brought by yourself, with your ability, how could you steal something from Xiao Yunhai." Be obedient and go back to sleep. Tong Xuansan's matter, I will try my best to find a way, although I haven't fought for anything over the years, but in this Xiaomen, I finally have a certain right to speak, and it is not hopeless to win the matter of Tong Xuansan. This kind of stupid thing can't be done again in the future, in case something really happens to you...... In the future, who will take care of and protect Che'er?"

Xiao Lie's last sentence gently hit Xiao Lingxi's soft heart, making her suddenly feel scared...... Yes, what should I do if I don't succeed and get caught and punished a lot......

"I ...... I know. Xiao Lingxi took off the black clothes on his body, threw them aside, wiped the tears off his face, and said with a guilty face: "Dad, I'm sorry, I did something stupid to worry about you again." I'm going to go to bed now and don't do it anymore...... Daddy, you should go back to rest quickly...... I promise not to steal Xuansan again. ”

"Hehe, just be obedient. Xiao Lie nodded and smiled gently. But before leaving, he still picked up the black clothes on the ground and took them away.
