Chapter 138: Settling Accounts After the Autumn

Lin Qian's plan was in full swing for more than a month, and his purpose was to quickly consume the strength of the beasts in the Endless Forest during this time, so as to meet the Armageddon in half a year, so he could meet the needs of the mercenaries as much as possible and do a good job in logistics support. Lin Qian's work continued in an orderly manner until one day, a woman suddenly appeared in a temporary town.

The woman's face was as calm as water, and she slowly walked into the hall of the Magic Guild and walked straight to the magic elevator in the middle.

"Stop, who are you?" stopped the two magicians guarding the elevator.

"I want to see Lin Qian. The woman said calmly.

The two guards glanced at each other, and they couldn't make up their minds for a while, although the president ordered that any guests should be notified when they came, but this woman didn't seem to know any magic, how could she have dealings with the president.

"Can you tell me who you are?" asked one of the magicians, hesitantly.

The woman sneered and turned to leave.

"Wait!" called out to Sophia, who had just gotten off the elevator.

The woman didn't seem to hear and continued to walk out the door. Sophia hurried after her and blocked her.

"You...... You are Sister Xiaoyi's...... Who is it?" Sophia saw Xiao Yi's shadow from her appearance, but she couldn't see the specific age, and she was a little unconvinced.

The woman did not answer immediately, but looked Sophia up and down, staring at her uncomfortably.

"I'm her mother. The woman seemed to know the identity of the other party, and there was a strange emotion in her eyes.

"It turned out to be my aunt, you come with me. Sophia didn't dare to look her in the eye, led the way in front, and led her into the magic elevator, directly to the top floor.

The two guards were dumbfounded, it turned out that this was the mother of the late president's wife, that is, the president's mother-in-law, didn't she come to settle accounts with the president?

Lin Qian was talking to Ysera about things at the moment, it was rare that she hadn't slept today, but it was all thanks to the ninth-level dark crystal nucleus, and Ysera was trying to fight for its right to eat.

Sophia gently pushed open the door and gave Lin Qian an indescribable look, which seemed to be a warning and a sympathy, mixed with a little sadness.

Lin Qian saw that it was Sophia, and was a little strange: "It's not for you to take it-" As soon as he was halfway through speaking, Lin Qian saw Sophia turn sideways to give up a position, and it was Xiaoyi's mother who had not seen her for a long time who came in.

"Uncle...... Aunt?" Lin Qian was in a very complicated mood at the moment, he didn't dare to face this mother-in-law who couldn't see through his thoughts, and he felt a little guilty about Xiao Yi's affairs, and he already had a second wife in name, so he didn't know how his mother-in-law would feel.

"President Lin's shelf has been getting bigger and bigger lately, if it weren't for this sensible second lady, I'm afraid I wouldn't have seen you. As soon as the woman came up, she sneered, which made Lin Qian more and more embarrassed.

"Who are you?" Ysera immediately felt a very strong uneasiness the moment she saw the woman, this woman was quite dangerous.

The woman turned her head to look at Ysera, and said to herself, "The appetite is so great that even the dragons dare to touch it." ”

This sentence is a bit intriguing, on the one hand, it means that Lin Qian cooperated with the dragon clan, and also used a dragon clan to open up a canyon for him, and on the other hand, it naturally means that there is probably some unusual relationship between Lin Qian and the dragon princess.

Although Lin Qian didn't have a second thought, Ysera's beauty was there, and he always felt a little weak, and in front of this mother-in-law who was proficient in prophecy, he couldn't even defend himself.

Lin Qian didn't dare to answer, it didn't mean that Ysera didn't dare, and besides, the other party saw through his dragon clan identity at a glance, so he couldn't help but be vigilant.

"How do you know I'm a dragon?"

"Human girls aren't so rude. The woman did not give in, as if she were hostile to anyone.

"You-" Ysera could tell, saying she was rude, and immediately wanted to strike.

"Stop!" Lin Qian stopped Ysera in time, "Sera, you go out first, and I'll explain this matter to you later." ”

"If you let me out, I'll go out?" The dragon princess didn't listen to Lin Qian's words like the others, which made Lin Qian very embarrassed.

The woman didn't forget to mock again: "There is no majesty at all, I really don't know how Xiaoyi likes you." ”

"Brother Lin, who is here today?" Before Elena, who rushed to hear the news, entered the door, a voice came in.

Lin Qian had a headache when he heard the voice, why did everything happen so coincidentally, today all the women who had a relationship with Lin Qian came, and the room couldn't be said to be "lively".

"Who is this, it seems like Sister Xiaoyi, who are you Sister Xiaoyi?" After Elena entered the door, she saw a woman standing in the middle, and couldn't help but ask.

The woman smiled: "I'm curious, how many sisters does my daughter recognize?"

The meaning of this sentence is obvious to Lin Qian: You Lin Qian didn't protect my daughter well, and you are not innocent with other women, how should this account be calculated today? And this just stung Lin Qian and made him even more guilty about Xiao Yi's death.

"All three of you will get out for me!" Lin Qian yelled, and then pointed at Ysera and shouted, "You! If you don't go out today, I will immediately let all the mercenaries turn their guns to deal with your dragon clan, it's a big deal that the fish will die and the net will be broken!"

Seeing this, Elena and Sophia hurriedly ran away, they didn't dare to provoke Lin Qian at this time. As for Ysera, he wanted to contradict two sentences, but seeing that Lin Qian had never been so angry, he actually had a trace of fear in his heart, snorted, and left dissatisfied.

"It's like a man. The woman sat down, reached out and took a sip of the tea from the table.

"Auntie, since you know everything, why bother arranging this drama to ridicule you?" Lin Qian calmed down, only to find that everything was probably arranged by his mother-in-law, who was good at prophecy.

The woman smiled a little slyly: "I naturally know that only the eldest lady of the Bright Family has a direct relationship with you, but ...... Who can say for sure what will happen in the future? ”

Lin Qian didn't know how to answer for a while, and he didn't dare to defend himself against this kind of trumped-up charge, so he could only resist it head-on.

The woman suddenly became serious: "Lin Qian, do you remember what you promised me?"

"Naturally remember. Lin Qian's heart tightened, is this going to settle accounts?

"Say it again, I'm afraid you'll forget. ”

"No matter what the situation, you must try to save Xiao Yi's life, even if you sacrifice everything and do whatever it takes!" Lin Qian was heartbroken, he failed to fulfill his promise, and could only watch Xiao Yi die.

"Very well, so how do you do it?" the woman was a little aggressive.

Lin Qian was extremely guilty: "I was incompetent and failed to fulfill my responsibility to protect Xiaoyi, which caused Xiaoyi to ...... Misfortune. ”

"Incompetence?" the woman smiled, "I'm afraid this is your excuse, right? You can't solve the things you provoked yourself, and you want my daughter to suffer for you, and now you blame all the blame for your own incompetence, and I think she is indeed blind." ”

This was a bit heavy, and Lin Qian couldn't be blamed for everything, because he didn't expect everything that happened later, and even all this came too suddenly, so he didn't have time to make any preparations.

"Do you feel very wronged?" the woman seemed to see through Lin Qian's thoughts, and asked again.

"No, the main responsibility for this is indeed me. Lin Qian took the initiative to take all the blame.

"Oh, tell me, what are your responsibilities?" it seems that if he doesn't make it clear today, this woman is afraid that she will not let him go.

"First, the matter of God's hand was too important, but I did not take strict precautions, so that I leaked the news and attracted the evil star of Lipsus; second, I sent an envoy to the Blue City, but did not send a large number of people to guard the backyard, so that Lipsus took advantage of the situation and put Xiao Yi under house arrest; third, when I learned that my family was in danger, I did not gather all my strength to rescue Xiao Yi, but instead thought of escaping to Longgu for refuge myself, so that I had to rely on Xiao Yi to come and sacrifice my life to rescue; fourth, I messed with flowers and grass, causing Xiao Yi to give away her talisman to others at the last moment, and finally fell into trouble; fifth, I didn't learn all day long, so that I should have been able to save Xiao Yi at the last moment, but I was unable to return to the sky, and I saw that she gradually lost her life。 If one of these five is done well, how can Xiao Yi have an accident?" Lin Qian sorted out his guilt as early as when Xiao Yi died, and now that he counts it down, he can't help but sigh again.

After listening to him, the woman saw that his face was sincere and his attitude of admitting his mistakes was good, and her face softened a little: "You don't have to take everything on yourself, in my opinion, your five guilt are a bit far-fetched." First, the leakage of the divine hand is not what you want, but because it is huge and easy to be recognized; second, Lipsus and his minions are powerful, which cannot be protected by you sending people; third, you know that Xiao Yi was not in danger at that time, and if you fight with the enemy, you will only leave a pair of bones in vain, which is not wise; fourth, Xiao Yi is kind and gives away the talisman, which has nothing to do with you; fifth, the family secret art, which needs to exhaust all her life force to activate, she is doomed to die when she uses the secret art, even if you have the strength of the adult stage, you can't save her。 ”

Hmmm?Lin Qian was a little incredulous, this sounded like - mother-in-law excused herself?

The woman saw his doubts and smiled, "I'm just testing your affection." Lin Qian, do you remember what I said at that time?"

Lin Qian was puzzled, how could he see that this mother-in-law didn't seem to be sad about her daughter's death, but he still remembered other words.

"Auntie, I can pretend that I don't know anything, or even forget about it, but when you come to me again one day, I will fulfill my promise. ”

"Yes, it's rare that you still remember, so let's cash in. The woman said easily.

"Cash, how to cash?" Lin Qian was puzzled for a while, the promise was to protect Xiao Yi by any means, and now that Xiao Yi is dead, what about it......

Lin Qian was ecstatic, he finally knew the intention of his mother-in-law's words just now: this was a final test, if Lin Qian didn't behave to satisfy her, even if he saved Xiao Yi, he would never let Lin Qian and Xiao Yi be together.

"Auntie, are you saying that you have a way to save Xiaoyi?" Lin Qian was a little incredulous and a little excited.

"Naturally," said the woman's face, "but the price is great, can you accept it?"

"No matter how big the price, I can accept it!" Lin Qian immediately assured.

"Well, you can't go back on it, no matter what the cost!" the woman said with some warning.
