Chapter 241 - Greedy Dragon Clan, Ideological Education (1)
"Okay, but will the dragons of the Dragon clan come?" Leng Qingtian was a little worried. It seemed that those dragons despised humans!
"The advancements just now can"t be hidden from the Dragon clan. Those dragons should be anxious, so there will definitely be dragons coming to me," Leng Ruoxue said with certainty, but she didn"t know how many there would be.
"Grandpa, what about Big Brother and the others?" Leng Ruoxue asked.
"Ruohan, Feng Da, and the others have all gone into seclusion. They said they wanted to cultivate diligently," Leng Qingtian explained. After leaving the Phoenix clan, the three old men also planned to go into seclusion to avoid dragging his granddaughter down in the future.
"Oh. Grandpa, I"ll go and consolidate my cultivation." Leng Ruoxue nodded and walked toward the purple bamboo house.
"Eh? Where"s Little Girl?" Old Man, who was gnawing on a spirit fruit in his hand, suddenly appeared beside Leng Qingtian and asked curiously. He clearly heard the girl"s voice just now!
"Xue"er went to cultivate. Why do you only know how to eat all day long?" Leng Qingtian said with a headache. This old man wasn"t like this before! Why did he seem like a different person now?
"I"m also doing this for cultivation! These spirit fruits are full of spiritual power, and I can"t enter seclusion now, so I can only eat them. Anyway, there are so many of them on the trees that I can"t finish them all," Old Man explained, implying that he shouldn"t be so stingy!
"Yes. What Old Man said is very reasonable. Now, we can only rely on these spirit fruits to increase our spiritual power." Lin Liang also held a fruit in his hand and agreed very much.
"Hmph! Well said. In fact, you two are just gluttons." Leng Qingtian bluntly exposed the two of them. Then he snorted and went to pick a fruit from a tree.
After consolidating her cultivation, Leng Ruoxue emerged from the purple bamboo house and saw the three old men eating spirit fruits in compet.i.tion. Cold sweat dripped down her forehead. Are they really that bored?
Without disturbing them, Leng Ruoxue quietly left the bracelet with the little mink.
"Xue"er, where are we going?" the little silver mink asked curiously when he saw Xue"er carrying him out of the wooden house.
"Out for a walk." Leng Ruoxue brought the little mink to the sea, sat on a boulder on the beach, and basked in the sea breeze. Oh, it feels pretty good.
"Ruoxue!" A voice sounded from behind her.
Leng Ruoxue turned around and saw Huo Qing standing not far away, looking at her. "Why are you here? There are many sea beasts here."
"I"m not afraid," Huo Qing said calmly. Alas! He hadn"t seen Ruoxue since he came here. Thinking of this, he couldn"t help feeling a little disappointed.
"Oh, um… how"s the situation with your Huo family?" Leng Ruoxue asked tentatively. She had never had the chance to chat with Huo Qing, so she wasn"t very clear about his family"s situation. But the incident could be considered to be caused by her, so she still felt somewhat guilty toward Huo Qing.
"I"m not sure either. Some died, some were injured, and some escaped. The Huo family no longer exists," Huo Qing said indifferently, his expression unreadable.
"Actually, I was the one who destroyed the Xu family, so I"m also responsible for this matter," Leng Ruoxue said after some hesitation.
"I know. The Xu family has always been ambitious. Even if it weren"t for you, they would have dominated the entire Ling Feng Continent sooner or later. You just brought this matter forward," Huo Qing said calmly. In fact, he knew very well that he could not entirely blame Ruoxue for this matter. His father had been too greedy.
"Yes, the Xu family is indeed a big problem."
"By the way, why were you together with Mu Li?" Leng Ruoxue asked curiously. These two shouldn"t be related, right?
"I met him on the road. I was chased by those people, and he saved me, so I came with him," Huo Qing explained simply.
"Then what are your plans for the future? We"ll be leaving in a few days," Leng Ruoxue said. This was also considered informing him in advance!
"I don"t know either." Huo Qing lowered his head in disappointment. He really didn"t know where he could go.
"Then stay with us for now. Leave after you find the Huo family," Leng Ruoxue said helplessly after thinking about it for a while. Alas! She really couldn"t chase Huo Qing away while he was in this state.
"Thank you." Huo Qing raised his head happily. He had already felt out of place during the past few days he was with them. So in fact, he was already mentally prepared to leave them at any time. But he didn"t expect Ruoxue to want him to stay. Even though it was only temporary, he was already very happy.
He was happy, but the little mink in Leng Ruoxue"s arms was unhappy. His beautiful blue eyes stared fiercely at Huo Qing, wanting to glare him to death.
Huo Qing ignored the little mink"s angry gaze and asked, "Ruoxue, when are we leaving?"
"In a week at most. The fire-attribute spiritual power here is very strong. Take advantage of these few days to absorb more of it. This opportunity is very rare," Leng Ruoxue reminded. This place was extremely suitable for fire-attribute cultivators to cultivate.
"Yes, I"ve been absorbing it the whole time," Huo Qing said. His greatest wish now was to increase his strength quickly, so he definitely wouldn"t let go of such a good opportunity.
"Let"s go back. I have to find the Phoenix King and talk with him," Leng Ruoxue said after looking at the time.
Huo Qing nodded, and the two of them walked back to the Phoenix clan"s territory.
"I"m going to see the Phoenix King. You should go back and rest!"
"Okay," Huo Qing replied and walked toward the wooden house.
Leng Ruoxue headed straight for the Phoenix King"s resting palace.
"Master." Feng Zhan was surprised to see Leng Ruoxue looking for him again so quickly.
"Feng Zhan, I plan to leave the Phoenix clan in a few days." Leng Ruoxue stated her intentions clearly.
"What? Then what should we do?" Feng Zhan was shocked. When his master was in the Dragon clan, she said that she would be leaving in a few days. At that time, he thought that she was just scaring those dragons. He didn"t expect that she was really leaving. Boohoo… Are we going to enter Master"s spirit beast s.p.a.ce? But there are no sycamore trees there, so it isn"t suitable for our Phoenix clan to cultivate.
"Of course you have to leave with me. Do you want to stay here?" Leng Ruoxue asked in puzzlement.
