Chapter 23: A Conversation with the Holy Maiden
Xiao Fan looked at Zi Yan's disappearing back, shook his head with a smile, and then left here as well, going to find Hua Mei, there were many questions to ask her.
After Zi Yan left here, the blush on her face did not fade for a long time. She acted very boldly and unrestrained, but she was ashamed enough in front of Xiao Fan today.
In the main hall, Hua Mei was sitting here, Lu Er was standing on the side, seeing Zi Yan's appearance, Hua Mei smiled and said, "It's all said, let you not try him, you don't believe it, it's all your own doing." β
"Holy Maiden, Zi Yan is not for you. Who knows if this potential Xiao Fan you fancy is a womanizer? If one day the saint girl is asleep and touches your room, then we will not lose a lot. The delicate flower of our saint is not something that ordinary people can pick. β
Hugh blamed me for the matter. With my cultivation, will he be able to get in? I see that it is possible to touch your room. Be careful that one night you suddenly go from a girl to a young woman. Hua Mei smiled and teased, which made Zi Yan think of the previous scene, and her face turned even redder.
"Okay, you guys go down first, Xiao Fan should come here to find me, I still have something to tell him, and he probably doesn't want others to know. Hua Mei commanded, and her face was restored. Zi Yan and Lu'er stopped playing, nodded and quickly retreated.
As soon as Zi Yan and Lu Er left, Xiao Fan found this place. I saw Hua Mei sitting there, smiling in her eyes, looking like she was waiting for herself. Xiao Fan immediately walked over and sat down opposite Hua Mei. In front of her, Xiao Fan was no longer polite.
"Zi Yan, this girl is a little nonsense, don't take it to heart. Seeing Xiao Fan sit down, Hua Mei said with a hint of apology. Xiao Fan shook his head and said, "How can I be haunted by these things." β
Hua Mei smiled lightly, looked at Xiao Fan quietly, and said, "If you have anything you want to ask, just ask, there is no one else here except you and me." β
When Xiao Fan heard this, he looked up at Hua Mei, and just kept looking at her, the two looked at each other, looking directly into each other's eyes, and after a while, Xiao Fan said a word: "Can I fully trust you?"
Hua Mei was stunned, Xiao Fan asked so directly, and this question sounded very naΓ―ve, but she knew that Xiao Fan actually trusted herself very much, otherwise she would not have asked such a thing. At that moment, Hua Mei smiled faintly and said, "We will never be enemies, only friends." All the worries in your heart are unnecessary, trust me!"
"It's not that I don't believe you, it's that it's too important, it's not just me, it's about someone who is very important in my heart. Xiao Fan said. Hua Mei nodded, vaguely she seemed to have guessed something, and she didn't speak, quietly waiting for Xiao Fan to speak.
"Now, you can tell me, do you know more detailed information about the Qin family's incident a hundred years ago?" Xiao Fan said as he looked at Hua Mei.
Hua Mei nodded slightly and said, "What do you want to know?"
Xiao Fan was silent for a while, and said, "I want to know who bought the Hongchen organization to assassinate Qin Wanru, and those main people were involved in the whole incident!"
"Why do you want to know this?" Hua Mei looked at Xiao Fan suspiciously, and said, "Could it be that you have a relationship with the Qin family, or what kind of relationship you have with Qin Wanru?"
Seeing that Xiao Fan was silent, Hua Mei didn't ask, and said: "As far as I know, it was the Hongchen organization that her second uncle and third uncle jointly bought off, and as for the specific participants, of course the important people in these two veins are involved. Moreover, the current situation of the Qin family is very delicate, and the position of the head of the family is not very stable. Those people seem to look forward to the head of the family on weekdays, but secretly they are yang and yin. β
When Xiao Fan heard this, he was even more worried in his heart, in such a situation of the Qin family, what should he do if Shi Niang returned to the Shenwu Continent?
"Is there only one daughter of the Qin family, Qin Wanru, and no other children?"
"Of course there is!" Hua Mei said, then sighed and said, "Qin Wanru has an older sister and an older brother, but her sister also died decades ago, and her brother went out to look for her after her accident, and since then there has been no news, I don't know if Lu Dao was also assassinated." β
Xiao Fan was shocked in his heart and said, "It seems that the head of the Qin family is a bit of a wreck, and his two daughters have been forced to be killed one after another, but he didn't react at all?"
"What can he do? As the head of the Qin family, of course the situation in the family is in his eyes. He failed to save his daughter before she was killed, what else could he do after she was killed? First, there is no definite evidence, and second, he does not have the strength to absolutely overwhelm his opponent, and the only thing he can do is to endure. β
"What about the rest of the Qin family? Do you just let the second and third elders of the Qin family do whatever they want?"
"Hehe, many people in the Qin family who can speak have long relied on the second and third children. They have coveted the position of the head of the family for hundreds of thousands of years, and in a long period of time, they have continuously expanded their power, and at the same time divided the power of the head of the family, I think it will not take many years for the Qin family to undergo shocks, and the position of the head of the family will be changed. β
"I didn't expect the Qin family to be in such a situation!" Xiao Fan said in a deep voice, as if he was talking to himself, his face was very ugly. Hua Mei looked at him, a glint flashed in her big beautiful eyes, and said, "Qin Wanru is not dead?"
Xiao Fan was shocked, and suddenly looked up at Hua Mei, but finally nodded. A look of surprise appeared in Hua Mei's eyes, and she said, "In this way, Qin Wanru was not killed by the Red Dust Organization in that ancient vein, but accidentally went to the Yanhuang Continent, otherwise how would you know her!"
"Yes, what you speculate is true. She did go to the Yanhuang Continent, but I didn't feel the breath of the soul of life you said in her body at all. Xiao Fan said.
Hua Mei shook her head and said, "It is a well-known fact that Qin Wanru awakened the soul of life at the beginning, as for the fact that you failed to sense the breath of the soul of life in her body, there is only one reason that can be explained. That is, he was injured too badly in the escape, so that the origin of the martial soul was greatly damaged, and the soul of life was deeply lurking. β
"I guess so, there is no other reason to explain it than that. Xiao Fan nodded, his face heavy. He was thinking about how to ensure her safety when Shi Niang returned to the Shenwu Continent in the future.
Looking at Xiao Fan's tightly knit brows and heavy face, Hua Mei said: "I can see that you care about her very much, she should have a very important place in your heart." β
"Yes, there is no substitute for her place in my heart. Xiao Fan said this, and then saw Hua Mei's strange eyes, his face changed, and he was a little embarrassed, and said, "Don't think about it, she is my master." β
"Master?" Hua Mei exclaimed, her eyes full of disbelief, this was too unacceptable for her, and she immediately said, "You mean that she married a certain man after arriving in the Shenwu Continent?"
"Not bad. Xiao Fan nodded and said, "The man you said is my master." β
"How could she fall in love with the people of the Yanhuang Continent, and a hundred years have passed, the man she fancied is still in the Yanhuang Continent, otherwise she would have been sent back to the Shenwu Continent a long time ago. From this, it can be imagined that your master is not very talented. As the little princess of the Qin family, Qin Wanru has extremely high vision, it is hard to imagine that he would fall in love with an ordinary man, this is too surprising!"
"Maybe it's because of gratitude. When the master arrived in the Yanhuang Continent, she was seriously injured, and it was my master who saved her. Xiao Fan said.
Hua Mei was slightly silent, then sighed, and said, "Qin Wanru awakened the soul of life at the beginning, and she is the little princess of the Qin family, so she can be said to be the proud daughter of the sky. As you said, maybe it was really because of repaying her kindness, and with her situation at the time, she was also disheartened with her family, and felt that she had no hope of returning to the Shenwu Continent in this life, so she was committed to your master. β
Xiao Fan didn't respond, was silent for a while, put aside the topic, and said, "What's going on with the Blood Refining Secret Realm mentioned by Wan Yan Lie?"
"Blood Refining Secret Realm, that is a special world, and I don't know much about the situation in the secret realm. However, the Blood Refining Secret Realm is a place that every young cultivator wants to set foot in, and it can only be opened once in fifty years, and it is presided over by the Holy Martial Inheritance of Dongzhou and the top power, but all cultivators of the younger generation can enter it freely, no matter who they are. β
"Our Shifting Flower Palace once had a disciple enter the Blood Refining Secret Realm, according to her, the World Realm in the Blood Refining Secret Realm is vast, the breath is wild and ancient, there are strange beasts and brute beasts everywhere, dangers are lurking, and there are even ancient killing arrays hidden. Our predecessors in the Shifting Flower Palace speculated that the Blood Refining Secret Realm should be a piece of heaven and earth sealed by the powerhouses of the ancient times, and in a way, it was an ancient realm that existed in the current world. β
"Ancient World Realm?" Xiao Fan was surprised in his heart, and couldn't help but think of the Great Desolate World Realm of the Yanhuang Continent, its danger can be imagined. "If there is really a sealed Ancient World Realm inside, with countless alien beasts and brute beasts and hidden killing arrays, how many of the cultivators who enter it will be able to come out alive?"
Hua Mei glanced at Xiao Fan and said, "The Blood Refining Secret Realm opens every fifty years, and it has been thousands of years now. Of course, the people of the Holy Martial Inheritance and the top power have already arranged everything. It not only allows the younger generation of cultivators to enter it to find opportunities, but also gives them hope of survival. β
"What do you mean?" Xiao Fan was puzzled. Hua Mei immediately explained: "The World Realm in the Blood Refining Secret Realm is vast, and the area where the cultivators were first entered was the least dangerous area. Therefore, some senior masters divided the territory in the Blood Refining Secret Realm and set up a warning monument. As long as you don't set foot in the area behind the warning monument, you won't fall into a real desperate situation. β
Xiao Fan nodded, and then said, "Even so, the killing among young cultivators can't be stopped. People are greedy, and whoever gains from it, I think there must be many people who will flock to it and attack it in groups. β
