Chapter 117: Quid pro quo
"I understand Miss Xueyi's dilemma, but please also take the friendship of the Tianlong Sect and my Nalan family first. We have been in harmony for so many years, and now we really shouldn't cause some estrangement because of such trivial things. ”
Cangqiong said this, and at the same time watched intently as Xue Yi made a corresponding tentative inquiry with his gaze. Xue Yi smiled indifferently, then sighed and couldn't help nodding indifferently.
"Alas~ I understand what the Firmament Master means, but even if I am willing, if I return in vain this time, won't I have no way to explain to the sect leader?"
"Even so, how will the girl explain to your sect master?" The sky was too lazy to play dumb riddles with her, and at this time directly chose to open an unfair way of inquiry: "If the girl has anything that needs my Nalan family's help, just ask, as long as we can do it, we will answer." ”
"The Firmament Boy is really refreshing. Xue Yi smiled indifferently: "Since this is the case, then I will also say that it is unfair." ”
"That's great, what's the request, but please be blunt. ”
First of all, I want to explain that this time I am sacrificing my ego for the sake of righteousness, not for personal purposes but for official business. ”
"I understand this. ”
Cang Tian nodded, and at the same time felt that Xue Yi's quid pro quo was bound to be a little harsh.
"Second, it was for the sake of the face of the Firmament Boy that he came up with this expedient method. Or rather, it's a win-win for both of us. Xue Yi continued: "The third is Gongsun Gongzi's side. To be honest, although I would love to have them and let them help me in my great work, I personally have never liked to be strong. Since Gongsun Gongzi has promised Lord Nalan before, it is indeed a little inappropriate for me to want people at this time. What's more, Miss Gongsun's injuries are also caused by me. If I take advantage of the danger of others at this time to do my own thing, it is indeed a bit unfair. ”
"This Miss Xue Yi is serious. Cangqiong immediately corrected her statement: "Miss is also doing this to save people, and as for Gongsun Gongzi's side, it is also for her sister." Loved ones. We can make an understanding. ”
"That's good. Xue Yi nodded again: "Although I have been lonely and have no family since I was a child, I also understand this feeling. I want to think that the Western Regions are not far away. If it drags on like this, it will not be a good thing for Miss Gongsun's healing. Since the internal power of the 'Heart Seal' was instilled in Miss Gongsun's body, I am now very willing to give it a try and dissolve this internal force. It's just that success or not depends on the will of God. ”
As she said this, the smile on her face couldn't help but grow. At this time, she was still looking at the sky with her eyes shining, and the sky clearly understood that she had long been proficient in the method of dissolving this internal force. It's just that the success or failure she said is in the sky, but it actually depends on whether her side can agree to her final quid pro quo.
"Hehe~ Miss Xueyi is willing to help, so naturally it couldn't be better. Cangqiong nodded, and asked with a smile: "Since Miss is so generous, then our Nalan family will naturally not let Miss return in vain like this." Now there is something difficult that we need our help with. As long as my Nalan family can do it, it is naturally incumbent on me. ”
"Hehe~ Don't worry, this matter is a trivial matter for the Nalan family. Xue Yi smiled indifferently: "To be precise, it is a trivial matter for the Firmament Prince and the Old Lord, as long as you are willing, then I will naturally have a reason to go back and give up talents." ”
"Miss Xue Yi doesn't have to beat around the bush, just speak bluntly at this time. ”
Xiongba was a little impatient at this time after listening to her explanation for a long time, so he directly asked Xue Yi to propose his own quid pro quo.
"Hehe~ This matter is very simple. Xue Yi smiled indifferently: "Compared with the recruitment of talents, in fact, our sect leader cares more about the interaction with the Central Plains Sect. Thinking that we are far away in the Western Regions, although we have achieved some careers over the years, we have had little contact with the factions of the Central Plains. Our sect leader has long admired the Nalan family in Motan City, and has long wanted to make friends with the two families of the Venerable Lord to achieve a great cause in order to achieve a hundred years of Qin and Jin Dynasty. ”
Xiongba frowned, thinking to himself, how could things be so simple? The firmament was also confused and puzzled by this request. Xue Yi still smiled indifferently, Xiongba nodded, and then was silent for a while, and couldn't help but speak again.
"I had business dealings with the Li Hate Heaven Sect Master in my early years, as my son said before. My Nalan family has been friends with your sect for many years and has a bad relationship, and I don't understand the goodness of Qin and Jin that the girl said is a little unknown now. Could it be that the relationship between our two families. It's not deep enough now, and your sect leader wants to ask for something from us?"
"Hehe~ It's serious to ask for the two words, but our sect leader hopes that the relationship between our two families will go further, and there will be some practical connections between the two families, so that all the factions in the Central Plains will understand our relationship between lips and teeth? ”
"Hmm~ So how can you make the Li Hate Heaven Sect Master think that our relationship is already dependent on each other?" Xiongba continued to ask: "And what is the actual sexual relationship and connection mentioned in the girl's words?"
"Forming an alliance requires tokens. There is no better harmony than marriage. How can the Lord not know this ancient common sense?" Xue Yi still smiled. At this time, he also began to speak bluntly: "Now that the sect leader has sent me down the mountain this time, he naturally has a lot of trust in me. Although I am a disciple of the Heavenly Dragon Sect. However, the sect leader has no children under his knees, and before he left, he had already recognized me as his daughter. Now that I'm young, the sect leader always wants to find me a good mother-in-law. The Sect Master, who is also my stepfather, treats me so kindly, how can I only care about my own marriage and ignore the development of the sect? Therefore, today I want to help the Sect Master with the matter of marriage, and at the same time, I can bring my Tianlong Sect closer to the alliance between the Nalan family. ”
After Xue Yi finished saying this, her face couldn't help but reveal shyness. After all, she is a girl's family, how can she not be ashamed to say her thoughts so unfairly at this time?
When Xiongba heard this, he immediately understood her intentions, and he couldn't help but turn his head to look at the sky while smiling indifferently. The sky was stupid and didn't know what to say, thinking that he had always been a smart child in front of Xiongba, and now this expression was the first time Xiongba had seen it.
Xiongba laughed secretly in his heart, couldn't help but sigh lightly, and then asked Xue Yi.
"So that's the case, so I don't know which one of my family you have a crush on, niece?"
He asked knowingly, and his words were undoubtedly full of ridicule for Xue Yi. Xue Yi's face turned crimson, and for a while she didn't expect Xiongba to ask herself like this. She looked at the sky and hoped that he would say something, who would have thought that the sky was completely wooden at this time.
The atmosphere at the scene gradually changed from the tension just now to the embarrassment now. Xue Yi waited for the sky to speak, but the sky didn't know how to answer. Xue Yi gritted her teeth, only to find that Xiongba was still looking at her with a smile and still waiting for her response. For the first time, his heart was beating so fast, and he was about to open his mouth when he suddenly heard a sharp voice break the silence for a long time.
"What a shameless woman, the meaning of going around in circles for a long time is really shameless. ”
Shocked by the words, Xue Yi's face changed. She angrily turned her gaze to the source of the sound to know who had cursed her at this time, but she couldn't help but be taken aback when she saw this person. (To be continued......)
