"Young master, are you back?"

Just when Lin Haoxue was thinking like this in her heart, a cold and bright voice suddenly came from her ears, it was a woman's voice, her voice was soft, with a slight trill, and it seemed to be surprise in her tone, but there was more disbelief in that surprise?

I don't know if I believe that Liu Changqing is back, or if I don't believe that Liu Changqing is alive.

Lin Haoxue subconsciously turned her head to look over, and saw a woman in goose yellow clothes standing not far from the three of them, the woman's eyebrows were like distant mountains, her skin was like snow, her posture was like a weak willow in the wind, and her skin was more and more beautiful with a goose yellow shirt, and the woman's age looked like she was about seventeen or eighteen years old, which was the best age for a woman.

The woman looked at them in a daze, no, to be precise, she looked at Liu Changqing, who was standing behind Lin Haoxue and He Yi'an, her eyes were shining, and her appearance was like crying, which made any man feel distressed, and he couldn't wait to protect him immediately, so that she would never have any worries again.

"Yes, I'm back!" Seeing this woman, Liu Changqing was also slightly stunned, and a few complicated expressions appeared on his face, but these complicated expressions were quickly removed, he raised his steps, stepped forward and took several steps, facing the woman, "Senior Sister Xiaoyue, are you okay?"

"I—what else can I do?" the woman smiled lightly, and the smile she showed made people feel sad, "I'm just like that." ”

"Then after I left, they didn't embarrass you, did they?" Liu Changqing took a few steps forward again, pressed the woman's shoulder, and showed a look of concern.

"They?" the woman tilted her head slightly, looking at the handsome man in front of her in a daze, her lips squirmed slightly, as if she wanted to say something, but then, she didn't say anything, but shook her head, "After you left, they probably didn't feel interested, so they didn't bother me much." ”

"That's good!" Liu Changqing seemed to breathe a sigh of relief and said.

Hearing this, Lin Haoxue couldn't help but look sideways at He Yi'an on the other side, and at the same time saw He Yi'an nodding invisibly, obviously the same as her own thoughts.

From the short conversation just now, Lin Haoxue heard a lot of information, this woman must have a good relationship with Liu Changqing, it seems that her status in the Xinglan Sect is not very high, it was Liu Changqing who was protecting her at the beginning, and after Liu Changqing left, she must have suffered a lot.

She could hear that this woman was lying, how could Liu Changqing not hear it, did he really believe this woman's words, or was he pretending to be stupid?

"Why are you crying?" Liu Changqing's suddenly raised voice pulled Lin Haoxue's thoughts back, and when he looked sideways, he saw that the tears that had been brewing in the eyes of the beautiful woman in goose yellow clothes still slipped out of her eyelids. The original desire to cry has become a pear blossom with rain at the moment, which is even more pitiful.

Sure enough, a beauty is a beauty, even crying is so beautiful, Lin Haoxue scolded while looking at this long-lost reunion with a lively mentality, without interrupting, and He Yi'an on the other side just raised his eyebrows and did not interrupt, obviously, he also had the same mentality as Lin Haoxue.

"You know what, they all said you won't come back?" the woman said in a thick, nasal voice, crying, "Do you know how sad it was?"

"How come, who said I can't come back?" Liu Changqing seemed to be comforting, but there was a bit of coldness hidden in his voice that could not be ignored, "Look, I'm not fine, what's there to worry about?"

"Originally, those disciples said it, and I didn't believe it yet, but—" The woman raised her hazy teary eyes and said to Liu Changqing, "But later, the elders said so, so I had to believe it." ”

"Elders?" Repeating the three words that the woman said slowly and solemnly, Liu Changqing's tone was very calm, calm to the extreme, but the extreme calm always contained a cold meaning that no one could ignore.

"Hmm, isn't this the sixth junior brother, are you back?" At this time, another man's slightly puzzled voice came.

Lin Haoxue and He Yi'an looked over and saw that this man was also a Yushu Linfeng, a character with extraordinary bearing, and his strength was even more in the realm of the Immortal Emperor. The man also didn't pay attention to Lin Haoxue and He Yi'an beside Liu Changqing, but cast his eyes on Liu Changqing's body.

He sped up a few steps, came to Liu Changqing's side, and said in a joking tone, "Sixth Senior Brother, why did you make Xiaoyue cry as soon as you came back, I remember that in the past, you loved her the most." ”

"Senior Brother said and laughed," Liu Changqing scratched his head a little embarrassed, and said, "How dare I provoke Senior Sister Xiaoyue?" It's just that we have been separated for too long, and when we meet again, I am a little excited, Senior Sister Xiaoyue is a girl, and it is inevitable that her feelings will be exposed. ”

"That's right," the man smiled, not seeming to care. However, the next moment, he glanced around at the people around him, and saw that many people around him had already looked at them because of the movement just now, so he sank his face and said to Liu Changqing, "This is not the place to speak, let's change positions, right?"

"What Senior Brother is saying is that this is indeed not the place to speak. Liu Changqing responded, it could be seen that he had great respect for this senior brother, and after a slight pause, he pointed to Lin Haoxue and He Yi'an, and explained, "These two are friends I met outside, and they are outside for casual cultivation, and they also want to join the Xinglan Sect, so I brought them in." ”

"Oh, welcome two!" The senior brother's eyes were still casually swept over Lin Haoxue and the others, but when he saw the strength of these two people, his attitude immediately became a little polite, and he said with a smile, "If my Xinglan Sect has always had such a potential casual cultivator to join, why worry that the strength of our Xinglan Sect is not strong." ”

"Quite potential?" Lin Haoxue said secretly in her heart, this person can also speak. Actually, originally that man should not be able to see his strength clearly, but because she came with Liu Changqing, she deliberately suppressed her strength to the level of the Immortal Emperor Primary at the same level as Liu Changqing. He Yi'an is the same, although this kind of strength is not very strong, but in the Xinglan Sect, it is definitely not weak.

After a brief greeting, Liu Changqing brought Lin Haoxue and the others, as well as the senior brother and Xiaoyue senior sister, into the courtyard where he lived before leaving, although the courtyard seemed to have not been inhabited for a long time, but because it lived on a spiritual vein like Xinglan Sect, there was not the slightest flying dust, and everything was very clean.

"Sixth Senior Brother, why did you come back, do you know how dangerous it is for you to come back?" squeaked the door shut, and the senior brother said to Liu Changqing with a heavy worry in his tone.

His sudden words suddenly made Lin Haoxue and the three of them look confused, not knowing what was going on, or rather, although they were alert in their hearts, they still couldn't guess what it was, at this time, they all looked at the senior brother and waited for his answer.

"Do you know that since three years ago, the news that you have died has been circulating in the sect?" Seeing that Liu Changqing still didn't seem to understand, Senior Brother continued to ask.

"I know this, Senior Sister Xiaoyue already told me just now. Liu Changqing nodded, indicating that he really knew.

"But, do you know who this news came from?" Senior Brother obviously did not doubt Liu Changqing's answer, nodded, but did not stop, but continued to ask.

"Great Elder?" Liu Changqing said uncertainly, with a faint question in his tone.

"Yes, it is indeed the Great Elder!" the senior brother continued, "The reason why he was able to announce such a news three years ago is that in his heart, you are already a dead man. Even if you come back alive now, you'll still be a dead man with him, you know. ”

"I know. Liu Changqing nodded, how could he not know this, since the Great Elder was able to announce that news three years ago, then, now that he is back, he will also have many ways to make him a real dead man.

"Then why did you come back?" The tone was sharp and slightly vibrato, and it was not Senior Brother who spoke, but Senior Sister Xiaoyue. She said with a worried look on her face.

"Because, I had to come back. Liu Changqing sighed faintly and said, "This is my root, and it is also my responsibility, I must come back to protect here." Besides, I'm fine, aren't I?"

"Guard?" Senior Sister Satsuki became even more anxious, "The first thing you have to do is to protect yourself, not to protect here." Besides, how can you be okay? Just because you're okay now doesn't mean you'll be okay forever, maybe tomorrow, you'll be in mortal danger. ”

As she spoke, Senior Sister Xiaoyue suddenly raised her head, "It seems that the Great Elder is determined to take your life, even if you come back, he will not give up, how can you be okay? In the past, there was still the Sect Master who came forward to protect you, but now, he doesn't know what is going on, how can he protect you?"

"Since I'm back, I'm ready, even if my father isn't there, so what, I want to see how he wants to take my life," Liu Changqing sneered, and there was a bit more domineering in his tone, this domineering was completely different from her appearance in front of Lin Haoxue and He Yi'an, perhaps, this was his nature.

Liu Changqing's senior brother and his junior sister Xiaoyue were stunned when they heard this, in their impressions, Liu Changqing had always been a gentle and elegant person, and they had never seen him have such a domineering side, so they would naturally be surprised.

And Lin Haoxue and He Yi'an glanced at each other, and they both saw appreciation in each other's eyes, and only such a person is worthy of being the sect master of Xinglan Sect.
