Chapter 897: The Island Owner's Wife
Xu Yu deliberately showed off, and took Jiang Xiaobai all the way through the Refining Hall, the Formation Hall, the Martial Arts Arena, and the Sword Mountain Sword Forest, and it took almost an hour to finally come to the Council Hall.
At this moment, more than a thousand people had gathered in front of the council hall, looking at Jiang Xiaobai with curiosity or surprise.
A group of people waited in front of the hall, a total of eight people, each of whom was a cultivator of more than the fifth stage of the emperor realm, and two of the old men were the cultivation of the sixth stage of the emperor realm, with a mellow breath and a mighty vitality, which made people dare not underestimate it.
In contrast, although Xu Yu is also an emperor-level fifth stage, in terms of strength, he is far from being the opponent of these people.
"Elder Jiang, please. A slightly younger-looking man said kindly, his voice clear, calm and calm.
Jiang Xiaobai arched his hand at the eight people: "Jiang Xiaobai of the Huaguo Martial Arts Department has seen all the elders. ”
These eight people are obviously the elders in Penglai Immortal Island, and they are extremely senior, and he now represents the Huaguo Martial Arts Department, so naturally he will not salute him as a junior. Similarly, the people of Penglai Xiandao also understand, so they discharged the current scene.
Following the eight people, Jiang Xiaobai walked into the main hall, and Xu Yu stopped outside the hall, and his identity was not enough to enter the discussion.
On the main seat in the main hall, there was a middle-aged man with a kind face, and beside him was a graceful lady, both of whom were not bad in strength, and they were both at the level of the sixth stage of the Emperor Realm.
Jiang Xiaobai sighed in his heart, in the end, it is an immortal mountain that has been inherited for a long time, not to mention anything else, just this heritage, it is far from being comparable to the martial arts department.
"Elder Jiang has come from thousands of miles away, the journey has been hard, please take a seat. Contemptible Xu Rui, this is my wife Dongfang Hong. ”
Jiang Xiaobai thanked him, but he didn't sit down, and said loudly: "Jiang Xiaobai has seen the island owner's wife, the purpose of my trip, I guess the island owner and his wife should know about it, right?"
Xu Rui chuckled: "It is said that Elder Jiang Xiaobai has a hot temperament, and the rumors are really true, madam?"
Dongfang Hong nodded slightly, clapped her hands, and soon a woman ran out of the back hall, it was Liu Dou'er.
"Doudou?" Jiang Xiaobai shouted happily, and stepped forward to hug Liu Dou'er who rushed over.
"You haven't been wronged, have you?" Jiang Xiaobai asked, he looked Liu Dou'er's body up and down, feeling her breath, but saw that Liu Dou'er had already broken through the emperor level.
Liu Dou'er pushed Jiang Xiaobai away a little shyly, and whispered: "Of course not, Master treats me very well." ”
"Your master?"
"Well, it's the island owner's wife, when I was arrested and seen by my wife, she punished those people, saying that I had good qualifications and accepted me as a disciple to sell the door. Liu Dou'er said happily, and there was little rejection of Penglai Xiandao in her tone.
Jiang Xiaobai breathed a sigh of relief, but couldn't help but blame: "Then you don't come back with a word, you don't know your grandfather, my father and I are worried, and your sister Yingying is always worried about you!"
Liu Dou'er stuck out her tongue embarrassedly, shook Jiang Xiaobai's arm and apologized: "I'm sorry, people just want to surprise you." ”
"Forget it, you're fine, but what are your plans? Do you want to stay here, or do you want to go back with me?"
Liu Dou'er's eyes flashed with a hint of intention, and she glanced back at the island owner's wife again, and hesitated.
"Elder Jiang, if you can, I still hope that Doudou can stay in Penglai Immortal Island for a while longer and improve his cultivation well. Dongfang Hong suddenly interjected.
Jiang Xiaobai arched his hand at Dongfang Hong: "Thank you Madame for taking care of Doudou during this time, but if you want to practice, our martial arts department may not be worse than Penglai Immortal Island." ”
In the main hall, everyone burst into laughter.
Xu Rui stopped everyone's laughter, and he apologized: "I'm sorry, Elder Jiang's patriotism may not be understood by people outside the party, but we also respect each other. But as far as things are concerned, the cultivation environment in Huaguo is still a lot worse than that of my martial arts department. ”
Jiang Xiaobai was unhappy in his heart, he said in a deep voice: "Island Master, I'm afraid you are a little lonely, maybe our Huaguo Martial Arts Department was relatively backward back then, but since the recovery of vitality, my Martial Arts Department has become better and stronger, and Tianjiao has emerged in an endless stream, and all kinds of talents have risen. may not be as good as the heritage of Penglai Immortal Island, but the future will only get better and better. ”
"Then there will be a great catastrophe in the future, do you know?" Dongfang Hong frowned.
Jiang Xiaobai said loudly: "I naturally know, but my Chinese martial artist practices martial arts for the country, and he will not regret his death." ”
Dongfang Hong couldn't help but scolded: "You're not afraid of death, what about Doudou? You don't care about yourself, don't you care about her?"
"Master, Doudou is naturally not afraid of death!" Liu Dou'er said loudly.
Dongfang Hong's tone was stagnant, and she glared at Liu Dou'er angrily, Liu Dou'er pouted and looked at Dongfang Hong flatteringly, this trick was invincible in the past, but now it has failed.
"No, I can't. Dongfang Hong shook her head, "I don't care about the others, but Doudou you have to stay." ”
"Madam?" Xu Rui held Dongfang Hong's hand, with a lot of persuasion in his eyes, but Dongfang Hong just shook his head.
Jiang Xiaobai was surprised in his heart, he saw pity and grief in Dongfang Hong's eyes, which can often only be seen in the closest people.
"Mrs. Xu, Xiaobai is grateful for your love for Doudou, but you can rest assured that I will do my best to protect Doudou and will not let her be hurt in any way. I once promised Doudou's loved ones, and I can promise you too. ”
Dongfang Hong shook his head: "Then what if you die?"
"Madam?" Xu Rui's tone suddenly became stern.
Jiang Xiaobai's mind spun quickly, listening to Dongfang Hong's meaning, this is saying that he has a great calamity? He couldn't help but think that in the Dragon Ruins, Xuanyuan Dao said that the two of them were very similar, and he had also hinted that he would not end well, obviously these two island owners and wives knew something.
"Master, is there any danger to Xiaobai?" asked Liu Dou'er anxiously.
Dongfang Hong looked at Liu Dou'er with pity, gently combed Liu Dou'er's hair, and said softly: "Doudou, you have been on Penglai Immortal Island for a while. You should also know the purpose of our fairy island, and never take the initiative to contact the outside, so as not to cause disaster. Otherwise, everyone will be doomed, and no one will run away. ”
"But Xiaobai?" Liu Dou'er said worriedly.
Dongfang Hong smiled bitterly: "He has already been in the catastrophe, and he can't avoid it." ”
"Then I will cross the catastrophe with him, even if it is death, I am willing to follow Xiaobai's side. Liu Dou'er exclaimed categorically.
"Doudou, you stay. Jiang Xiaobai thought about it and said seriously.
Liu Dou'er's face changed, and she was about to speak, Jiang Xiaobai shook her hand and signaled Liu Dou'er not to speak for the time being.
"Owner, ma'am, why don't we make a deal?"
