In front of the Great Elder Hall of the Back Mountain.

Xia Kite respectfully greeted, Jin Dao immediately laughed twice, his eyes were bright, and he praised repeatedly: "It's good to come back! In just three years, I have improved a lot in cultivation, good, good!"

He handed a Sword Pavilion order to Xia Kite: "The old man won't say anything more, do your best!"

He briefly said Leng Xiao's matter again, and Xia Yuan was suddenly surprised: "He really has such strength?"

Jin Dao slowly bowed his head: "He can save Hu Hai in the hands of the black scorpion, and his strength is beyond doubt." ”

Xia Yuan didn't ask any more, and the conversation changed: "Great Elder, do you know where Senior Brother Hu Hai is now?"

When Jin Dao heard this, he remembered that he hadn't seen Hu Hai for three days.

The two of them immediately came to the Maple Leaf Residence, Leng Xiao was cultivating cross-legged, holding two spirit stones in his hands, both of which were provided by the Lanhui faction, and he was not polite, so he seized the time to cultivate.

A few maple trees outside the maple leaf house are sassy in the wind, the flowers are red and the grass is green, it is very quiet, Leng Xiao has never closed the door, when Xia Kite and Jin Dao came, Leng Xiao opened his eyes, and his face suddenly looked slightly unnatural.

Seeing that she came with Jin Dao, she should have come to ask for justice, so it's okay, there is a cause and effect, after all, it's not his.

"I've seen the senior of Jindao and this girl!"

Xia Kite's eyes glared: "What is this girl, my name is Xia Kite!"

Jin Dao smiled: "This is Elder Xia's daughter Xia Kite, she has such a temper, don't blame Leng Xiaoyou! You get along well, and you will have to participate in the Sword Pavilion trial together after March." ”

"Miss Summer, last time...... How offended!"

Seeing that Leng Xiao's expression was quite calm, Xia Yuan hurriedly changed the topic, what if others knew that she was being peeked at in the bath?

"Forget it, don't say anything more! Have you seen Senior Brother Hu Hai in the past few days?"

Leng Xiao shook his head, he also wanted to ask Hu Hai about Xia Kite's residence, so he went to apologize, but he couldn't see Hu Hai after going several times in a row, so he had to put it on hold.

Jin Dao's eyes were not good, and he whispered: "I almost lost my life in the hands of the black scorpion last time, and I don't have a long memory, and I left the sect without permission!"

At this moment, a figure stumbled in, looking panicked.

"Panic, what kind of system!" Jin Dao immediately reprimanded, especially when he lost the face of the sect in front of outsiders.

The man raised his head, it was a young man, his appearance was quite delicate, he was out of breath: "Big ...... Great Elder, I'm looking for ...... Looking for you for a long time......"

"What's the matter with the old man?"

Jin Dao asked, and the young man immediately said, "Oh no, Great Elder, I'm afraid that Senior Brother Hu Hai has encountered an accident!"

"What are you talking about?" Jin Dao was originally just angry, but at this moment, sparks appeared in his eyes, combined with the fact that he hadn't seen Hu Hai for the past three days, he immediately snorted, "What the hell is going on, tell me quickly!"

The young man nodded busily, he just practiced qi cultivation, and he was already afraid to speak in front of Jin Dao because of awe, but when Jin Dao's majesty was revealed, his body shrank even more, and he couldn't spit out a complete sentence!

was so angry that Jin Dao wanted to give him a slap, but in front of Leng Xiao, he had to take care of his identity, not only his own majesty, but also the majesty of the Lanhui faction.

However, without his hands, the young man slapped his cheek twice, and the right cheek suddenly turned red, he calmed down a little, and took out a soul jade from his arms.

The soul jade was dim, and even cracked a few fine cracks! It can be seen that even if the person who left the soul jade is not dead, he is not far from death.

The soul jade exudes the breath of Hu Hai, which confirms what the young man said about Hu Hai's fierce and auspicious words.

The young man finally calmed down, and his tone was still a little trembling: "Three days ago, Senior Brother Hu Hai hurriedly came to the outer hall to pick up the task, I thought that Senior Brother Hu Hai was just joking, he had no shortage of spirit stone pills, and there was no need to take the task at all." ”

But after the disciple entertained others and took a few tasks, he found that Senior Brother Hu Hai had left, and took away a jade slip, leaving a soul jade. ”

This is the rule of the Lanhui faction, but whenever a disciple receives a task in the outer hall, he will leave a soul jade, and if a disciple encounters an accident while performing a task, the sect can also count it in his heart.

"What mission did he take?"

Jin Dao was worthy of being a great elder, and quickly calmed down and asked with a frown.

The young man suddenly knelt down and confessed: "Great Elder, don't blame, the disciple is derelict in his duties, Senior Brother Hu Hai will leave simply after taking the jade, and the disciple will not have time to register......

Hearing this, Jin Dao suddenly frowned and sighed, there is a huge Lanhui faction, hundreds of thousands of disciples, and there are tens of thousands of people who receive tasks every day, and there are countless tasks, if you check them one by one, I am afraid it will be a needle in a haystack!

He took the soul jade, looked solemn, and said, "It seems that I have to use the tracing technique." ”

After Jin Dao finished speaking, his figure suddenly disappeared. Although his cultivation was much worse than the Yuanying Cultivators that Leng Xiao had seen in the Blue Sprint Sect, he was also a Yuanying Monk after all.

left the three of them staring at each other. The young man was silent, and the eyes that looked at Xia Kite were even more fearful than when he looked at Jin Dao!

"Look at it! Get out!" Xia Kite's name was quiet, but her personality was very inconsistent with her name, and she reprimanded her angrily, but the young man was like being amnestied, and hurriedly ran away.

Then Leng Xiao was left staring at him with wide eyes......

Leng Xiao coughed dryly: "Miss Xia Kite, why don't you come into the house and sit ......?"

Xia Yuan's eyes looked at Leng Xiao, and snorted coldly: "You'd better forget about the waterhole......!

She threatened, and the word "then" dragged a long sound, thinking that Leng Xiao would quickly nod his head and bow in agreement, but Leng Xiao just said lightly: "Miss Xia Kite is too worried, and she will not talk about it with others......"

"What's the use of not talking about it, I'll tell you to forget!" Xia Yuan glared at Leng Xiao, but although her words were cold, her appearance was beautiful, but there was no deterrent.

Leng Xiao smiled bitterly and said truthfully: "Do your best...... It's just that I haven't forgotten it since I was a child, and I'm afraid it's a little difficult......"

"You!" Xia Yuan couldn't help but be furious, her eyes glared at Leng Xiao viciously, her hands suddenly pressed Leng Xiao's shoulders, and she just opened her mouth to say something, when she was suddenly stopped by a voice.

"Ibides!

In the distance, a middle-aged man walked in a neat bun, dressed in a yellow shirt, with brisk steps, one hand behind his back, one hand gently brushing the corners of his mouth with the other, placed in front of his chest and abdomen, and his image was slightly weak.

Leng Xiao raised his eyes to see that the man's eyebrows were full of life, and his eyes were deeply sunken, as if he was terminally ill.

Xia Kite and Leng Xiao still maintained this posture, she pressed her hands on Leng Xiao's shoulders, the distance was only a few inches, especially when her eyes were staring, her neck subconsciously stretched forward, and it was a little closer.

The man seemed to be extremely displeased, his eyes were cold, he swept over Leng Xiao's body and landed on Xia Kite: "Kite, Leng Xiaoyou is a distinguished guest of the sect, don't be rude!"

"What do you have to do with it!" Xia Kite said lightly.

Leng Xiao was silent, he felt that although Xia Yuan had restrained a little anger on the surface, there seemed to be endless anger suppressing it in his heart.

Looking into the man's eyes, it was like looking at a stranger.

The man was faintly angry: "What do you have to do with me? I am your father, what do you say has to do with me!"

Leng Xiao suddenly realized, and suddenly remembered that when Jin Dao introduced Xia Kite before, Xia Kite looked indifferent, and he didn't know what was the difference between his father and daughter.

He smiled embarrassedly, sandwiched between the two, it was really uncomfortable, and he was about to break away from Xia Kite's hands, but he didn't expect Xia Kite to grasp it even tighter, and glared at him viciously.

Leng Xiao already felt guilty about Xia Kite, so she had to let her hold it at the moment.

"Go back!"

Xia Yuan looked at the man with a cold look in her eyes: "I said five years ago, you are you, I am me! Don't confuse you and me anymore, you and I have nothing to do with each other!"

The man seemed to have an extremely headache, his fingers were slender and slender, and he gently rubbed his temples twice, he looked at Xia Kite, and his tone softened slightly: "You still can't forgive your father?"

"Enough!"

Xia Kite's expression suddenly became excited, and her body trembled slightly: "You scum, how can you call me my father with the face! Don't want me to forgive you in this life!"

The man's tone choked, endless tiredness flashed in his eyes, and he forced himself to squeeze out a smile: "Iris, your body is weak, and the deep pool behind the mountain is almost uncontrollable, you ......"

"You die, I won't marry that piece of waste to Lei Ming!"

The man's expression stiffened on his face, and he gasped heavily.

Xia Kite was already very close to Leng Xiao, and at this moment she suddenly made a move that made Leng Xiao sluggish, she reached out and held Leng Xiao's cheek, leaving a kiss mark on the corner of Leng Xiao's mouth like a dragonfly.

"I'm telling you, I have someone I like, and you don't have to dominate my life!"

The man was already short of breath, and at the moment he seemed to be out of breath, and his right hand was pressed on his chest, and his face was pale.

Xia Yuan's face showed a trace of worry, and his steps moved forward, and the man seemed to recover and took a deep breath.

Seeing this, Xia Kite immediately retracted her steps, her chest rose and fell, and her eyes were cold.

The man's eyes were soft, and a gentle smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, and he sighed: "Well, you don't have to deliberately anger me, you don't like thunder, and your father won't force you anymore!"

Xia Yuan sneered: "Leng Xiao's strength is not bad, even the black scorpion is a defeated general under him, and he looks handsome, I just like him, what's wrong?"

Saying that, she made a gesture and wanted to kiss again, Leng Xiao trembled, and subconsciously wanted to hide, Xia Kite's eyes were sharp, and she almost wanted to kill, Leng Xiao was in a dilemma all of a sudden.

The man sighed, turned suddenly, and left silently, walking alone under the crimson maple tree, his body was gloomy, and his feet were full of withered yellow leaves, covered with the dust of the past.

"Miss Xia Kite......" After a long time, Leng Xiao called out.

Xia Yuan came back to her senses, and suddenly her eyes widened: "What are you doing!"

Leng Xiao couldn't help but smile bitterly: "Men and women don't kiss each other......"

Hearing this, Xia Yuan's eyes were full of sneers, and she pushed Leng Xiao away: "The disciple who peeked at this girl's bath is also worthy of saying the words whether men and women are kissed or not?"

Leng Xiao was even more bitter, and he couldn't get rid of this crime in fear, and he was speechless for a while.

Xia Yuan looked at Leng Xiao for a long time before she said calmly: "Thank you." He is my father, Xia He. ”

Leng Xiao was stunned for a moment, and met Xia Kite's bright eyes. Xia Kite has a proud and strong personality, but he reads a touch of weakness in it.

"I, a disciple, might be a good listener. ”

Xia Yuan and Leng Xiao looked at each other for a long time, and the coldness on their faces was mixed with pitiful bitterness, and at this time, she suddenly smiled.

The two sat on the eaves, looking at the red maple in front of them, the blue sky and white clouds in the distance, and she said slowly: "Five years ago, he killed my mother. ”

Xia Kite's tone was calm, her expression did not fluctuate at all, not even a tear, as if she was telling a story that had nothing to do with her.

"Since I was born, I have been suffering from a strange illness, and I have to soak in the deep pool in the back mountain on time to relieve it. ”

Speaking of this, Leng Xiao couldn't help but be slightly surprised: "That waterhole is a medicinal bath?

Xia Yuan smiled and shook his head slightly: "It's not a medicinal bath, this is also when I was a child, I accidentally fell into it and found that the waterhole can alleviate my strange disease, but I don't know what the principle is, the waterhole has existed since the establishment of the Lanhui faction, and there are some indescribable mysteries in it." ”

Leng Xiao couldn't help but think of the strange scene that happened when he dived to the bottom of the pool last time, and took a deep breath.

When he came back to his senses, there was an even sound of breathing around him, and Xia Kite leaned on his shoulder and fell asleep.
