Xi Dongliu came to a secret room in the courtyard behind him with a grim face.

Before entering, he adjusted his mood before knocking on the door and walking in.

In the secret room, a delicate white jade incense burner was placed on a table, and a cyan spiritual incense was obliquely inserted in it, which was slowly burning, rising with curling smoke.

Next to the white jade incense burner, a piece of white rice paper is pressed on the left and right of the two paperweights, and a young man in a white robe embroidered with gold patterns is holding a pen to draw a woman's figure on the paper.

The young man is handsome and good-looking, but just standing there with a pen in his hand makes people think of the word Fengshen Yuxiu.

And the woman in his pen is even more beautiful and lifelike.

"Master Simon." Xi Dongliu saluted the man and spoke.

The man stopped his movements and looked back at the sunset, with a gentle smile on his face.

"Second Uncle Xi, come and see, how is my drawing?" The handsome young man spoke.

When Xidong heard this, he immediately walked up, his eyes looked at the drawing paper for a while, and his eyes showed a look of appreciation.

"The appearance is only seven points similar, but the charm is nine points, I didn't expect that after so many years of not seeing the night girl, the young master of Ximen can still paint such a painting close to a real person, which shows that you are infatuated." Xi Dongliu stroked his hands and praised.

The handsome young man known as the "Young Master of Ximen" by Xi Dongliu, named "Ximen Rui", is the favorite heir of the Nine Yin Venerable, the head of the six venerables of the Wuyue Sect.

"My heart for Sunset Shadow has never changed, but I don't know what she thinks?" The young master of Simon said with a sad face.

"It's always hard to guess what the night girl thinks, but I believe that with her discernment, how can she not understand the sincerity of the young master of Simon? Besides, our Xi family also thinks that the two of you are a good match made in heaven. Xi Dongliu said.

Hearing this, Ximen Rui's sad color disappeared, and he turned to joy.

"Second Uncle Xi, what is the strength of the young man who came back with Xiying?" Ximen Rui straightened his face and asked.

"That guy is a little weird...... "Xi Dongliu didn't know what to say for a while.

"Huh? How many drinks did he drink? Ximen Rui frowned.

That pot of two-pole immortal brew was actually given to Xi Dongliu by him to test Yuan Ming's strength.

Xi Dongliu raised a finger.

"After only drinking one glass, the Yuanying Realm should be there, but at most it has just broken through, and the realm has not yet been completely stabilized." Ximen Rui breathed a sigh of relief.

If Yuan Ming was just a monk in the early stage of the Yuan Infant, he wouldn't have taken it seriously at all.

"No, I only drank one cup of the pot of Polar Immortal Brew, and he drank all the rest." Xi Dongliu shook his head and said with a wry smile.

Hearing this, Ximen Rui's pupils shrank slightly, and the smile that had just flashed at the corner of his mouth was a little stiff, revealing an unbelievable look.

"You said he almost drank the pot of Polar Immortal Brew?" Ximen Rui couldn't help but confirm again, and his voice didn't feel a little louder.

"Not only did he drink all the Polar Immortal Brew, but from beginning to end, his expression was natural, he didn't show any strange expression, and he didn't even blush." Xi Dongliu said.

"In this way, it is very likely that he is a senior mid-Yuan Infant cultivator, and it is also possible that he is a well-cultivated and well-established physique." After the initial surprise, Ximen Rui immediately returned to normal and began to analyze.

"That's what I thought too." Xi Dongliu nodded in agreement.

Ximen Rui frowned slightly, and his eyebrows were silent.

At this moment, Xi Dongliu's expression suddenly changed, and then his face showed joy.

"What's wrong?" Simon Rui was surprised.

"The evening girl is out of the customs, let's go to meet her." Xi Dongliu said.

"Okay." Ximen Rui was immediately overjoyed.

The two soon came to the gate of the last courtyard, and met the sunset shadow coming out of the doorway.

Just one glance, Ximen Rui froze.

Where is the shadow of the sunset in front of him, which can be sketched by the pen and ink on his drawing paper?

I saw that he was dressed in a water-blue dress, and his black hair like a waterfall was just casually pulled up with a wooden hairpin, without the slightest pink on his face, and he did not wear any decorations on his head.

Its slightly cold temperament adds a hint of chill to this spring color, making her whole person look dusty, as if she is a nine-day fairy who lives alone in the Toad Palace, not stained with any dust.

"Xi girl's ......" even Xi Dongliu showed a look of surprise.

Ximen Rui couldn't help but swallow a mouthful of saliva, and was woken up by the light call of Xi Dongliu.

"Xiaoying, congratulations on your successful exit, this is a pearl that I have spent many years finding from overseas, even if it is a congratulatory gift I gave you." He immediately stepped forward and pulled out a fist-sized snow-white orb.

The jewel is similar to the clam bead, but it contains an incomparably rich, and majestic sea-like water attribute spiritual power, which is a priceless treasure at a glance.

Clinker Sunset didn't even look at it, only said hello to Xidongliu, and asked:

"Second uncle, where did you place Yuan Daoyou?"

Xi Dongliu didn't react for a while, and casually told her the location of Yuan Ming's courtyard.

By the time he reacted, Sunset had already walked out of the courtyard and disappeared.

"Young Master Ximen......" Xi Dongliu said with some embarrassment.

The corners of Ximen Rui's eyes twitched slightly, and then he showed a nonchalant attitude, and said with a smile: "It's okay to ...... it."

On the other side, Sunset Shadow quickly came to Yuan Ming's door and knocked on the door.

Yuan Ming had just refined all the spiritual power contained in the Polar Immortal Brew, and the redness on his face had not completely faded.

Previously, he also forcibly suppressed the wine power of the immortal brew, and only after Xidong flowed away, did he release it, and immediately found that the wine power was more domineering than he expected, and the spirit was as strong as him, but he was still almost drunk.

However, after refining, his benefits were also very obvious, and the extremely hot power in the two poles of immortal brewing, which was somewhat similar to the power of the sun of the Golden Crow True Fire, was of great benefit to his physical improvement.

Yuan Ming was steaming all over, opened the door, and saw the figure of the woman standing outside at a glance.

Rao is mind is as firm as him, and there was also a moment of shaking, thinking that he had seen the fairy of the Heavenly Palace.

It's funny to say, in Yuan Ming's cognition, the Nine Heavens Fairy should be the natural appearance without powder, not the Ayaluo Immortal, a jeweled and luxurious outfit.

It was precisely because of this that Yuan Ming's face was stunned for a short time.

"Sunset?" Soon, though, he came back to his senses, a little uncertain.

He had never seen Xiying's real body, and he used to appear in front of him in the form of Xiao Ying, so when the name overlapped with hers, Yuan Ming was still a little uncomfortable.

The sunset shadow suddenly smiled, and the trace of coldness melted away in an instant, leaving only a moving posture.

Yuan Ming was amazed, but his face, which was still slightly red because of his luck, suddenly turned a little redder.

He didn't even have time to check how the aura on Sunset Shadow's body had changed.

"Let's go, let's go to Red Lotus Island." Sunset Shadow smiled and spoke.

"Okay."

Although it was a little sudden, Yuan Ming did not hesitate at all.

With that, the two of them left the courtyard and walked outside the manor.

But when the two of them just walked out of the third courtyard, they saw a middle-aged man in a dark purple robe standing there, his face was resolute, his eyebrows were tiger-eyed, he had a short beard, and his whole body was calm, quite a tiger's momentum.

The moment Sunset saw the middle-aged man, her brows furrowed.

Yuan Ming read from the subtle expression on her face not disgust, but sighing, as if to say "bad".

"Daddy." Sunset spoke.

The middle-aged man is none other than Yukage's father, Yumasa.

"You still know I'm your father?" Xi Zheng asked rhetorically, his voice low.

"Dad, I ......"

Before Sunset could finish speaking, he saw that his father had already walked past him.

"Come with me." Xizheng's words sounded, with a majesty that could not be refused.

Xiying was helpless, so she could only nod slightly to Yuan Ming, and then Lianbu followed silently.

The three of them came to a banquet hall, and they saw Xi Dongliu and Ximen Rui waiting there.

"Uncle Xi." Seeing this, Ximen Rui immediately greeted him eagerly.

Xizheng's face, which had been stiff, suddenly relaxed, and a smile appeared on his face, and he said, "Young Master Ximen, I've kept you waiting for a long time." ”

"It's okay, today is a big day for Xiaoying to come out, it doesn't matter how long you wait." Ximen Rui hurriedly said.

"It would be nice if Xiaoying had the general knowledge of you." Xizheng sighed and said.

Sunset frowned slightly, forced displeasure, and caught up and said, "Dad, I have something important to do and want to leave for a while." ”

"You just have a big business, and you can't leave today." Yuzheng glanced at her and said lightly.

Xiying still wanted to argue, but Xizheng had already set his eyes on Yuan Ming and asked, "Who is this fellow Daoist?" ”

"Junior Yuan Ming, a loose cultivator in the East China Sea." Yuan Ming saw him ask, so he had no choice but to say.

"He's my man." Sunset didn't want him to ask too much, so she took the initiative to say.

Unexpectedly, after hearing Yuan Ming say that he was just a casual cultivator in the East China Sea, Xizheng had no interest in continuing to ask, and instead asked Ximen Rui:

"How's your father doing?"

"Father, he has been busy with the affairs of the church, and he can't get out, originally he wanted to come with him this time, he wanted to meet Xiaoying a long time ago." Ximen Rui said, not forgetting to look at the sunset again.

"It stands to reason that we older generations shouldn't be involved in the affairs of young people, but I'm very satisfied with you, and your father wants to meet Xiaoying, and he should too. He's busy with affairs, so he still has to focus on the Divine Cult, so I'll take Xiaoying to visit him another day. Xizheng said with a gentle expression.

"Uncle Xi is willing to come to the door in person, it is an honor for the younger generation, I believe that my father will know and will be very happy." When Ximen Rui heard this, he said with some excitement.

"With the eve of the shadow retreat, it is rare for you to see each other, but this time you have to get along well." Xizheng said.

"That's nature, and the younger generation can't ask for it." Simon Rui was even happier.

Sunset frowned when she heard this, but she didn't say anything to refute it.

Yuan Ming was left aside by Xi Zheng, listening to his conversation with Ximen Rui, and then looking at Ximen Rui's handsome face, he unconsciously felt a trace of disgust.
