Chapter 59: The Disaster of the Holy Soul
No matter what, women will still retain a little tolerance for men who praise their beauty, especially this man who used to say that he was ugly.
"Of course, I used to have too little knowledge, and I always said that Xiaorou was prettier than you, and I didn't think it was right." Xiao Ye said sincerely.
A hint of complexity flashed in Xiao Yue's eyes, thinking to herself if he was showing goodwill? Now know my good?
In the third generation of the Xiao family, there are actually no daughters, Xiao Mengrou and Xiao Yue were adopted by Xiao Ye's father Xiao Yingqian and second uncle Xiao Yingming respectively, and they have no blood relationship with the Xiao family's brothers.
So at the beginning, Xiao Yue even liked Xiao Ye, but she could obviously feel that Xiao Ye was better to Xiao Mengrou than to her, and the more she grew up, the more obvious it became.
At the beginning, Xiao Yue was very unconvinced, and she couldn't get along with Xiao Mengrou everywhere, the more this happened, the worse Xiao Ye's attitude towards her became, until in the end, the two were almost like rivals.
Although she later found out that Xiao Ye couldn't cultivate ancient martial arts, which made her feel very relieved, in Xiao Yue's heart, there was always a period of her secret love, but she was disgusted by the other party.
When Xiao Ye said this sentence just now, Xiao Yue seemed to have avenged the revenge of the year.
She wanted to tell him on the spot that he understood too late, she was already engaged to the Zheng family, and she had a good fight against Xiao Ye. However, there were so many people present, and many of them were maid bodyguards, so she naturally had to consider whether it was appropriate to say this.
As a result, at this time, Xiao Ye continued: "When I went around outside and saw more people, I found that in addition to Xiaorou, there are many people who are more beautiful than you, but overall, you are still much more beautiful than before, which is sincere......"
Before she finished speaking, Xiao Yue's nose was about to be crooked, and she couldn't wait to pounce and bite the other party.
Just now she thought that this guy was showing favor to herself, it seems that she really thinks too much, this guy hasn't changed at all, even after a few years, she is still useless in his eyes, a thousand times worse than his little sister ten thousand times.
Thinking of this, she couldn't help but look at Xiao Mengrou with hatred.
"Are you going to talk to me?" Xiao Mengrou, who never took the initiative to speak, asked.
Xiao Yue was stunned for a moment, but then she realized that there was clearly a threat in her words, if she dared to say a few more words, Xiao Mengrou might even do it!
Does Xiao Mengrou dare? She really dared!
In the Xiao family, no one dares to ignore the rules as if they were nothing, and they do something with their brothers and sisters for no reason, which is naturally not allowed, even Xiao Ye, who is the most protective of Xiao Ye.
But there is one exception, that is Xiao Mengrou, no matter whether Xiao Badao is there or not, what she wants to do has never changed.
After Xiao Ye was forced to leave Xiao's house, Xiao Mengrou once slapped Xiao Yue twice, so that she didn't dare to go out to meet people for several days.
At that time, Xiao Badao hadn't come back for two years, no one knew if she was dead, or where she didn't come back outside, in the Xiao family, no one protected Xiao Mengrou anymore, but she dared!
After that, Xiao Mengrou was punished to kneel for three days and three nights, and she accepted it silently.
Xiao Yue originally wanted to return these two slaps with her own hands, but when she saw Xiao Mengrou's eyes, she didn't dare! Even if there is a father who is the head of the family, she doesn't dare!
Usually Xiao Mengrou is very silent and hardly fights with others, but when it comes to Xiao Ye, she has never been weak. It's not that it's not weak, it's strong, so strong that it doesn't even take the head of the family seriously.
It's not that she's not afraid of punishment, it's that she doesn't care at all.
Cold, this is her attitude towards others in the past, and in the past three years, it has become colder and colder day by day, and the whole person is like an ice cube, maybe this ice cube will only have a little warmth when it is facing her brother Xiao Ye.
Xiao Yue is jealous of Xiao Ye's kindness to Xiao Mengrou, and more people are jealous of Xiao Mengrou's maintenance of Xiao Ye, this pair of brothers and sisters, whether in the past or now, they have always been each other's warmest support, and they are also the most fragile scales.
"Okay, don't mess around," Xiao Yingming came out at the right time to interrupt, "Xiao Ye, go and meet your grandfather, he has been coming back to see you for a long time." ”
For Xiao Mengrou, Xiao Yingming is also a headache, when Xiao Ye was kicked out of the house, he once thought that Xiao Mengrou would follow the other party, but no, the little girl slapped his daughter twice, and after kneeling for three days and three nights, she still lived in the Xiao family with no sense of existence.
Driving away Xiao Mengrou, he didn't think about it, but he was a little reluctant after all.
Although Xiao Mengrou is a little cold, she was born in the country and the city, and she is also famous in Haicheng, and what is even more reluctant is her ancient martial arts talent, when she was only sixteen years old, she was already at the peak of the yellow level, and even after a year, she firmly stepped into the threshold of the Xuan level.
Xiao Yue always felt that Xiao Mengrou pressed her everywhere, in fact, even in the eyes of his father, the gap between Xiao Yue and Xiao Mengrou was too big, and even he was a little regretful, when he adopted these two little daughters, why didn't he put Xiao Mengrou in his own home?
Thinking about driving such a genius out of the house, Xiao Yingming really felt a little painful.
"Then we'll go," Xiao Ye bowed slightly to his second uncle Xiao Yingming as if he hadn't noticed the smell of gunpowder just now, and then turned his head and smiled at Xiao Yue, "I'm not telling a lie, you are indeed much more beautiful now than before." ”
"Humph!" Xiao Yue couldn't hear the half-flattering meaning in these words, so she stomped her foot and turned around and left.
"Xiaorou, let's go see grandpa." Xiao Ye said twice as if he hadn't seen it, and walked towards his grandfather's room with Xiao Mengrou.
The Xiao Tian brothers in the back all looked at Xiao Yingming, who had become gloomy again, and glanced at each other.
"Dad, Xiao Ye and the two of them are too arrogant, right?" Xiao Chen said dissatisfied, "Just say that about Xiaoyue in front of you." ”
"Indeed, he seems to have seen that his grandfather will protect him." Xiao Tian also agreed.
Xiao Yingming shook his head and frowned at the two sons: "You two spend more time on serious things, don't be idle all day long, make some appearances, this Xiao family can be passed on to you, you know?" ”
The two sons both nodded, although they were still uncomfortable in their hearts, but they couldn't find any reason to find trouble with Xiao Ye, and they really wanted to make a move that involved them, Xiao Badao was not a vegetarian.
"This kid, I haven't seen you for three years, and the city has become deeper." After the two sons left, Xiao Yingming looked at the direction Xiao Ye was walking and muttered to himself.
The kid three years ago was full of momentum, although he was also funny and smart, but he always looked like a child, but now Xiao Ye, the edge of the year has converged a lot, and it is stinging enough to be exposed, but it is a little more spicy and calm, and even he has a feeling that he can't see through.
Xiao Ye's inability to cultivate is a hard injury, if it weren't for this, it would be hard to say who the Xiao family would end up with.
But he can't be unguarded, they all say that his son is his own good, and his two sons are also very good, not as good as Xiao Mengrou, but both of them are about to reach the peak of the yellow level, and they are also considered to have some talent in business, but I don't know why, he always faintly feels that where Xiao Ye is, it seems that he wants to be stronger than them.
This feeling may be true, or it may be because of Xiao Badao, because Xiao Badao likes Xiao Ye very much, so he also has this illusion that Xiao Ye is very good.
……
In the room, a burly old man sat on the Taishi chair facing the door, and when he saw Xiao Ye, a light sharper than a falcon flashed in his two eyes, and his slightly pale eyebrows trembled twice.
"Grandpa!" Xiao Ye called out respectfully.
"Have you ever been bullied?" Xiao Badao stood up and asked.
"Except for the surname Xiao, I can't be born at all who bullied me!" Xiao Ye joked.
"Grandpa is not here, so you have been wronged!" Xiao Domineering's eyebrows moved, what has happened in the past few years, Xiao Mengrou has already said a lot since he came back, and the situation of Xiao Ye's brothers and sisters may be more uncomfortable than Xiao Mengrou's, "But this wronged grandfather will not let you suffer in vain, I want to hand over the entire Xiao family to you, do you dare to ask for it?" ”
"The Xiao family?" Xiao Ye was stunned for a moment, and immediately understood the meaning of this, but he shook his head, "It's not that I dare or not, but I haven't thought about these at all, and I probably won't think about it in the future." ”
"Okay," Xiao Badao's tone sounded this time, not overbearing at all, "You can do whatever you want, grandpa will fully support you, little rabbit cubs, Lao Tzu has been in retreat for a few years, and he has turned the sky upside down!" ”
"I just want to know who killed my parents!" Xiao Ye raised his head.
"They ......" Xiao Badao heard this, his expression also gloomed, the first news he heard after returning to the Xiao family was the death of his son and daughter-in-law, he lost his son when he was old, and he was still the most proud son, which made Xiao Badao feel a little untenable, "Their affairs are with grandpa, you don't have to interfere." ”
"Grandpa!" Xiao Ye just looked at each other.
"Alas, I have already gone to the Holy Soul to check, they were ambushed while on a mission, and they were finally burned to death by a group of strange supernatural people," Xiao Badao's voice was also slightly desolate, "That time a total of thirteen Holy Soul personnel were killed, and it was the biggest disaster in the history of the Holy Soul, among which your parents' cultivation was the highest, especially your father has reached the peak of the prefecture level, it can be seen that these people are extremely powerful, but you can rest assured, kill my Xiao domineering son and daughter-in-law, I will find these people out sooner or later." ”
"Don't even know who the other party is?" Xiao Ye originally thought that the Holy Soul would have an answer, but after a person died, he didn't even know who the opponent's enemy was, which was also incredible.
