Chapter 175: Sleepless Tonight (I)
After a long time, the night grew deeper.
Xuanyuan Qiao'er's red lips opened lightly, and she muttered to herself: "Alas, four or five months have passed, and Brother Yuyi has never sent any news back, and I don't know if he is doing well." β
As soon as the words fell, a very slight footstep sound came into Xuanyuan Qiaoer's ears, and I saw Xuanyuan Qiao'er's willow eyebrows frown slightly, and he snorted lightly.
"Who?!"
As she spoke, Xuanyuan Qiao'er quickly stood up, and just as she was about to mobilize the martial energy in her body, a very familiar voice came.
"Qiao'er, don't be afraid, it's my father!"
After that, in the darkness, Xuanyuan Yan slowly walked out and entered Xuanyuan Qiao'er's sight.
Xuanyuan Qiao'er was obviously relieved, and sneered, "Father, why don't you make a sound when you walk!"
Hearing this, Xuanyuan Yan paced to Xuanyuan Qiao'er's side, kindly touched the latter's hair, and chuckled, "Isn't that Qiao'er still aware of her father!"
Xuanyuan Qiao'er replied a little shyly, "If the father really wants to hide himself, the child will never be able to detect it!"
Xuanyuan Yan looked at his daughter kindly, "Eighteen years old, just an adult, cultivation has already broken through to the early stage of the Martial King realm, this kind of talent, in the entire Chaos Continent, is not bad!"
"Father said he laughed!" Xuanyuan Qiao'er smiled lightly.
That's right, just a few days ago, after Xuanyuan Qiao'er's unremitting efforts, among the dual attributes, the fire attribute successfully stepped into the early realm of the martial king from the original peak realm of martial arts.
In his spare time, Xuanyuan Qiao'er also improved his metallic cultivation from the original early stage realm of military generals to the middle stage realm of military generals!
Originally, Xuanyuan Qiao'er's master, Han Jun, who was also a fourth-grade alchemist, had the most ideal wish that when Xuanyuan Qiao'er first cultivated to the peak realm of martial arts, if the dual attributes of gold and fire broke through to the early realm of the martial king at the same time, it would bring her great improvement.
However, the cultivation is magical, Xuanyuan Qiao'er has always been careful to follow Han Jun's teachings, and has not deliberately cultivated fire attribute martial qi, but has devoted himself to cultivating metallic martial qi, but the latter has made little progress, but it has only advanced by one level, but I don't know why, the former actually advanced at the same time with the advancement of metallic, it is that kind of natural thing, Xuanyuan Qiao'er can't stop it at all.
Han Jun was also quite helpless when he learned about this, so he could only let Xuanyuan Qiao'er cultivate as he wanted in the future.
But this is also a good thing, the cultivation of such a young Martial King Early Realm is enough to be proud of most of the so-called geniuses, after all, Li De, who is middle-aged, is now only a Martial King Early Realm, and the gap between the two is not small!
However, in the final analysis, this kind of thing is not entirely to blame for Li De's incompetence, in fact, Li De has been cultivating very hard in order to revive the Li family, but along the way to cultivation, hard work is indeed a very important factor, but more often, qualification is the main reason.
Therefore, Li De, who has mediocre qualifications, has only reached the level of the early stage of the martial king when he is middle-aged, and Xuanyuan Qiao'er is still young, but he is talented, and he actually caught up with the former, or how to say that the future is terrifying!
Talented, you can really do whatever you want, anything is possible, but the most important thing is whether you can survive successfully in the future and finally stand at the top of the pyramid, another matter.
Normally, gifted geniuses are not uncommon, but people who can actually do a little bit are extremely rare.
Then again.
Xuanyuan Qiao'er lazily snuggled up to Xuanyuan Yan's chest, "It's late at night, why haven't you returned to the palace to rest?"
Xuanyuan Yan smiled slightly, "Father Emperor passed by you, and when I saw you here in a daze, I was curious to come in and take a look, why is my baby daughter worried, could it be that bastard boy who wants to Han Yuyi?"
Xuanyuan Qiao'er's mouth pouted unhappily, "Father, how do you say that Brother Yuyi is a bastard!"
Xuanyuan Yan pinched Xuanyuan Qiao'er's jade nose, "Good guy, you haven't married Han Yuyi yet, and your elbow turned out, it hurts my father's heart!"
After speaking, in order to be realistic, Xuanyuan Yan even hammered his chest painfully, looking sad.
Sure enough, Xuanyuan Qiao'er instantly felt distressed, "Oh, father, don't be angry, that's not what the child meant!"
Xuanyuan Yan patted Xuanyuan Qiao'er's shoulder lightly, and shook his head with a smile, "Okay, okay, my father knows it, I just teased you just now." β
Then, Xuanyuan Yan said a little silently: "It's really a big girl, I can't imagine that in the blink of an eye, my Qiao'er is already a big girl with a water spirit, I believe that your mother's spirit in the sky can also rest in peace!"
Hearing Xuanyuan Yan mention her late mother, Xuanyuan Qiao'er's mood also became depressed, "Father, how did you say that mother, how are you doing in Heaven?"
Xuanyuan Yan's eyes flashed with a hint of nostalgia, and he said softly: "Your mother must be doing well, better than us!"
Xuanyuan Qiao'er nodded in agreement, holding back her tears and not letting it fall.
"Okay, okay, let's not mention the sad things for now!"
Xuanyuan Yan took a deep breath and ended the topic that made them both sad.
"Qiao'er, what do you think of this person Han Yuyi, Father wants to hear your true heart here!"
After calming down his heavy mood, Xuanyuan Yan looked at Xuanyuan Qiao'er with a smile, and that kind of meaningful look made the latter very embarrassed.
Although she is more shy, for the sake of her future happiness, Xuanyuan Qiao'er can only say with a hard head: "Brother Yuyi, I grew up with me since I was a child, and the relationship between the two of us is like a childhood sweetheart, although we haven't met for a long time due to the hindrance of your father and emperor halfway, but in the child's heart, the longing for Brother Yuyi has not ended, but has become more mellow and firm with the passage of time, I believe that Brother Yuyi is also the same as a child!"
Xuanyuan Yan nodded, "Well, it makes sense, feelings are indeed inexplicable, just like a vat of fine wine, the longer it is placed in the cellar, the sweeter and more delicious it will be, and it cannot be terminated by strong means!"
Xuanyuan Qiao'er nodded again and again, "Yes, I won't tell you, since the day you ordered me not to find Brother Yuyi, I haven't had a day that I haven't been sleepless all night, and my heart is abnormally tormented, on the one hand, my father who gave birth to me and raised me, and on the other hand, my beloved, I was caught in the middle, that taste is really uncomfortable!"
As she spoke, Xuanyuan Qiao'er couldn't help but choke up with some grievances, looking at me with pity, I couldn't help but feel distressed, and the urge to protect her arose for no reason.
"Qiao'er, I'm sorry, my father was too naΓ―ve, thinking that this would break your feelings for Han Yuyi, but what I never expected was to torture you so much, my father really did something wrong this time!"
Hearing Xuanyuan Qiaoer's sensational words, Xuanyuan Yan's eyes moistened slightly, and he hugged Xuanyuan Qiaoer's delicate body, admitting his mistake vigorously, and every sentence came from the bottom of his heart.
After the crisis of annihilation some time ago, he saw the potential of Han Yuyi, and the moment his former best friend Han Feng lived and died with the Heavenly Emperor Kingdom regardless of his past suspicions, Xuanyuan Yan faintly regretted it.
Now seeing that his beloved daughter has suffered so much, Xuanyuan Yan blames himself even more, and regrets not being at the beginning!
"Father, the child doesn't mean to blame you, I just ask you to let me and Brother Yuyi develop freely in the future, and don't stop blocking it!"
Xuanyuan Qiao'er blinked her tearful pear blossom eyes pitifully, and looked at Xuanyuan Yan with begging, it looked like if Xuanyuan Yan didn't agree, she might even kill herself directly!
At this moment, Xuanyuan Qiao'er is very much like a chastity who is willing to die for love, even if it is a moth fighting a fire and killing herself, it can be seen that Han Yuyi will always be such an irreplaceable position in her heart, at least no worse than her father!
Seeing this scene, Xuanyuan Yan suddenly remembered a soft place somewhere in his heart, the tiger body shook slightly, and muttered to himself in his heart, "You mother and daughter, your temper is really like, at the beginning, alas, don't mention it." β
Seeing Xuanyuan Yan in a daze, Xuanyuan Qiao'er thought that she was angry with herself, and hurriedly apologized, "Father, I'm sorry, the child didn't mean that, this, that, oops, I don't know what to say!"
At this moment, Xuanyuan Qiao'er's heart was in turmoil, and she, who was not good at words, was even more anxious and sweaty, and couldn't help but feel a little at a loss, for fear that Xuanyuan Yan would misunderstand her meaning because of this.
Whether it is Han Yuyi and Xuanyuan Yan, they are the men who occupy the main position in Xuanyuan Qiaoer's heart, and they are the two family members she wants to get along with and protect in her life, she doesn't want any conflict and hostility between the two, that can be described as heart-rending torture for her, and it is a situation that Xuanyuan Qiaoer would rather die than see!
Hearing this, Xuanyuan Yan suddenly woke up, and then after seeing Xuanyuan Qiao'er's appearance, he smiled lightly, "Silly child, parents, even if their children do something that makes them sad, they won't care too much, as long as you are better than them, they will be satisfied!"
"Father!"
Xuanyuan Qiao'er was moved, hugged Xuanyuan Yan, tears couldn't help but brush and fall, and her delicate body twitched slightly in Xuanyuan Yan's arms.
"Okay Qiao'er, don't cry, if you're crying, Father and I'm about to be infected by you!" Xuanyuan Yan stroked Xuanyuan Qiao'er's hair distressedly, comforting with a playful charm.
