Chapter 193: Reunion
“That’s good too. It would be great if I could entrust my daughter to someone like Sect Master Jiang. Besides, Xiaoxi’s age is close to his. Maybe they are a match made in heaven.” Thinking of this, Qin Haisheng laughed out loud.
“You old man.”
On the other side, Jiang Yun left the Qin family and met up with Qin Xiaoxi, who was sitting on a bench at the door.
“My Father was just talking nonsense, and he was confused. You…” Qin Xiaoxi’s face was as red as a ripe apple. She quickly lowered her head and didn’t dare to look at Jiang Yun again. Even her words became hesitant.
“What?”
“You… don’t take it seriously,” Qin Xiaoxi stammered.
“What’s wrong? Is there anything wrong with marrying me?” Jiang Yun quickly came closer and teased Qin Xiaoxi, who was blushing in front of him.
“Who… who wants to marry you? You’re crazy…” Qin Xiaoxi quickly punched Jiang Yun, then pushed him away and stood up. “Anyway, just… pretend that this never happened.”
“Hmm. Then why don’t you go back quickly?” Jiang Yun looked at her and said.
“I don’t want to.”
“So you’re thinking the same thing as me. The group of mysterious people that your father mentioned.”
Qin Xiaoxi naturally understood what Jiang Yun said. Three years ago, there were people from a foreign region in Yu City, and within a few days, the Liu family in Yu City was wiped out. Everything seemed to point to the Blood Shadow Sect.
“I think this group of people might have something to do with the group of people that appeared in Yu City three years ago, so I think this is the breakthrough point.” Qin Xiaoxi’s blushing face slowly returned to her original rosy complexion and her expression also became a little more serious.
“Smart.”
“What about now?” Qin Xiaoxi asked, “I’m not going back.”
Jiang Yun looked at her helplessly, shook his head, and said, “Then we’re not returning. Now, I have to find my three disciples. Since they have been observing this mysterious force for some time, they must have learned something.”
Qin Xiaoxi nodded and followed Jiang Yun on their way.
On the other side, Yu Sisi, Kong Li, and Xiong Ji were sitting at a noodle stall across the Emerald Pavilion. Xiong Ji was eating the beef ramen in his bowl with big mouthfuls. The sound of the noodles being sucked continuously came out of his mouth.
Xiong Ji was eating like a hungry ghost. Yu Sisi and Kong Li, who were at the side, were annoyed to hear that.
“Hey, can you eat more elegantly?” Kong Li looked at Xiong Ji with a look of disdain. At this moment, his eyebrows were almost furrowed to the top of his head.
“I’m hungry anyway.” Xiong Ji did not care about what Kong Li said. He picked up his chopsticks and finished the last bit of noodles in the bowl. However, this was not the end. Xiong Ji immediately picked up the bowl in his hand and finished the soup in the bowl.
Kong Li shook his head helplessly and fanned himself with his fan.
At this moment, Xiong Ji’s gaze was on the bowl of noodles in front of Yu Sisi.
Yu Sisi’s bowl of noodles was still steaming. The chopsticks were placed neatly on the mouth of the bowl and she did not take a single bite.
“Hey, Sister Sisi.”
Hearing Xiong Ji calling her, Yu Sisi, who was originally staring at the door of the Emerald Pavilion, came back to her senses. She noticed that Xiong Ji was staring at her noodles.
“Go ahead, I’m not hungry.” Yu Sisi smiled and pushed the beef noodles towards Xiong Ji gently.
“Thank you, Sister Sisi!” Xiong Ji opened his mouth and started eating again.
Kong Li’s face was filled with shock when he saw this. His mouth was almost unable to close, and his eyes were as wide as copper bells.
“What a glutton. You should call yourself a pig instead.” Kong Li teased.
Xiong Ji had no time to refute. If it were any other time, he would have already gotten into a fight with Kong Li.
“What do you know…”
Kong Li ignored Xiong Ji and started talking to Yu Sisi.
“We’ve been watching them for two days. Why haven’t we seen that group of foreigners come out?” Kong Li was very curious.
A few days ago, they had already begun to investigate the group of unknown people that Master Qin had mentioned. Other than seeing them around the Emerald Pavilion two days ago, they hadn’t seen a single person.
“Do you think they will come out to let you peep on them?” Yu Sisi burst into laughter. “Be patient.”
“I can’t calm down. It’s been a month, and there hasn’t been any news about Master at all.” Kong Li shook his head. “Otherwise, we can just go straight into the Emerald Pavilion and catch them off guard, and then…”
Kong Li made a cutting gesture on his neck when he said this.
“No, Master has already instructed us not to act rashly. If these people have high spiritual power, then it will be us…” Yu Sisi made the same gesture as Kong Li.
“But these people are really strange. They cover their faces in broad daylight and wear veils as if they’re afraid that others don’t know that they’re up to no good.”
Yu Sisi agreed with these words.
“A month has pa.s.sed. I think Master should be back soon. You should have more patience.” Yu Sisi smiled helplessly and comforted Kong Li.
“A month has pa.s.sed. Master must have been drunk by Miss Qin’s gentleness. I’m starting to imagine that kind of scene.” Kong Li shook his head in disdain as he said this, looking extremely annoyed.
“Hey hey hey, don’t talk nonsense. Master has gone to look for medicine.” Yu Sisi hurriedly stopped him, but the next second, she had a stunned expression.
“Why are you stunned like this? What I said wasn’t wrong. This month, in the beautiful Northern Region, a man and a woman are on the same boat together. Tsk tsk tsk… something must have happened between them.”
The more Kong Li spoke, the more excited he became. The expression on his face was full of variety, and his speech was also vivid.
“Moreover, I don’t believe that Master is such an upright person like his appearance. This Second Young Miss of the Qin family is as beautiful as a fairy, and her spiritual power is extremely strong. How could Master not be moved! How could he not have any evil thoughts…”
Bang! Before he could finish his words, a heavy blow landed on Kong Li’s head.
