Chapter 2473 Two Ants (2)
Who knew that Cheng Xuan didn"t take the Cheng family seriously at all? he said indifferently,""Why should I go back? Do you want to see someone clamoring to replace me as the young master?"
"What?" The moment Leng ruoxue heard this, the fire of gossip was ignited once more. The others also looked at Cheng Xuan with curious expressions, hoping that he would answer their questions.
Cheng Xuan looked at everyone"s expression and helplessly said,""Can you guys not be so nosy?"
"You"re the one who gave us the chance to gossip. So, you have to tell us the truth." Leng ruoxue laughed evilly.
"That"s right! That"s right!" Uncle long and the others also joined in the fun.
"Alright! I"ll explain, alright! The Cheng family isn"t very peaceful at the moment. Someone is planning to replace me as the young master, but I don"t know when their plan will be completed. I don"t have the patience to play with them, so I ran away from home. " Cheng Xuan said honestly.
Although he was often caught by the old ancestor, now that he had run away from home and was almost a regular meal, the old ancestor was probably used to it! At least this time, he wasn"t immediately summoned back as soon as he came out.
"Under such circ.u.mstances, shouldn"t you be more at home and perform well?" Leng ruoxue reminded.
"Tsk! Who wants to perform well! I don"t really care about the position of the Cheng family"s young master. " Cheng Xuan said nonchalantly. Ever since he got to know Leng ruoxue and the rest, he suddenly realized that he was even more unwilling to be bound by that huge family. One must know that he yearned for a free life.
"You must be giving the head of the Cheng family a headache!" Leng ruoxue said.
Hearing this, Cheng Xuan only raised his head arrogantly, putting on a n.o.ble and cold look, and then changed the topic to what he had said before.
"Xue "er, when you leave, you must take me with you!" Cheng Xuan was like a puppy that was afraid of being abandoned as he pleaded.
"Alright then!" Leng ruoxue had no choice but to agree. However, she thought to herself,"if I bring you along, the Cheng clan"s head will definitely come to my place to arrest you!" Hence, she really could not guarantee how long Cheng Xuan would stay with them. However, if she wanted to bring Cheng Xuan along, she might have to bring this idiot, Cheng mu.
At the thought of this, Leng ruoxue"s gaze could not help but turn to Cheng mu. When Cheng mu saw this, he immediately went up to Leng ruoxue and said in a fawning manner,""Xue "er, you"ve brought my brother along. Of course, you can"t leave me behind, right?"
"What if I say that I"m wrong?" Leng ruoxue teased.
"Uh! Xue "er, you won"t be so disloyal, right?" Cheng MU"s eyes dimmed, and tears slowly welled up in her eyes as she said pitifully.
Seeing him in this state, Leng ruoxue could not take it anymore and said,""Alright, stop acting pitiful. I"ll bring you along, but you have to be obedient!"
"I promise I"ll listen to you." Cheng mu said obediently.
Leng ruoxue nodded, letting him off the hook.
Early the next morning, the Lu clan"s elder immediately sent someone to deliver Leng ruoxue"s remuneration for treating city Lord Lu"s illness. When she saw that the remuneration was actually almost double what she deserved, Leng ruoxue could not help but sigh. This Lu clan"s elder knew how to conduct himself. In addition, the Lu family"s elder had also sent compensation to Cheng mu, allowing him to make a small fortune. The messenger also a.s.sured them that Lu Rong would be severely punished by the family, so they could rest a.s.sured. ??ee???n?v?l.co?
On the afternoon of the day they received their remuneration, Leng ruoxue and the rest left Chuan city under the watchful eyes of the Lu clan"s elders.
As he watched Leng ruoxue and the rest leave, the Lu clan elder heaved a long sigh of relief. He thought to himself,"I"ve finally sent these few away!" That was close!
After Leng ruoxue and the rest left, they continued to head south along Chuan city. After walking for close to half a month, the group finally returned to the land of demons.
When the beasts that stayed behind in the land of evil demons learned that Leng ruoxue and her group had returned safely, they were all overjoyed. They surrounded Leng ruoxue and asked her all sorts of questions out of concern. When they learned that Leng ruoxue and her group had won, they were so happy that they howled at the top of their lungs to show their excitement.
Seeing this, Cheng mu was even more surprised. He had never expected Leng ruoxue to have such a good relations.h.i.+p with the beasts of the land of demons. Such a harmonious relations.h.i.+p was almost impossible in his knowledge. However, he had actually seen it with his own eyes today. For a moment, his admiration for Leng ruoxue was like a surging River, endless.
After returning to the demonic land, Leng ruoxue and the rest returned to their original appearances. When Cheng mu saw them, he was completely dumbfounded.
No matter how stunning Leng ruoxue was in the rumors, it was not as real as seeing her with his own eyes. After seeing Leng ruoxue, he deeply felt that the women he had seen in the past who he thought were beautiful were not even worth showing off. However, he did not dare to have any improper thoughts about Leng ruoxue. It was because the eyes of the demonic man beside her were too penetrating and too terrifying.
Moreover, the demonic man"s otherworldly beauty made him feel inferior. Sigh! A man actually looked like this, how were those women supposed to live!
However, it was undeniable that the outstanding couple in front of him was a match made in heaven. After secretly observing them for a long time, Cheng mu really felt that if anyone dared to come and ruin their perfect couple, he would be the first to disagree.
At this moment, he automatically ignored the extra-large lightbulb cat in Leng ruoxue"s arms and turned to look at the devil"s Land with a curious expression, as if he was looking at a Grand View Garden.
The beasts in the land of demons showed a high level of enthusiasm for Cheng MU"s arrival. Every day, some beasts would bring Cheng mu around to play. In just a few days, Cheng mu was so happy that she forgot about home.
On a certain day.
Leng ruoxue, who was sitting in the garden and chatting with uncle long and the others, finally caught up with Cheng mu. She could not help but tease,""Cheng mu, it looks like you"ve been playing with your heart these few days!"
"Hehe! No! No way!" When Cheng mu heard Leng ruoxue"s words, he immediately blushed. In reality, he was just as Leng ruoxue had said. He was so happy that he had lost his sense of direction. However, he did not dare to let Leng ruoxue and the others know about his thoughts. Otherwise, what if they were jealous and wanted to chase him away? He hadn"t had enough of this place!
"Since you don"t have it, then don"t run around in the future. Cultivate well! Look at how weak you are. With your current strength, I"m afraid no one will believe you if you tell them that you"re from the Cheng family!" Leng ruoxue"s beautiful face was filled with disdain.
"Don "t! Sister, please let me go! I don"t like to cultivate!" When Cheng mu heard this, he immediately cried and begged. If he liked to cultivate, he would not have run away from home.
Ugh! Back then, he had also run away from home like Cheng Xuan. However, he did not dare to say this in front of Leng ruoxue. Otherwise, what if this person decided to send him home on a whim? There were good food and fun things here. He didn"t want to go back to the Cheng family"s cage! I won"t go back even if I"m killed!
"I don"t keep idle people here. With your strength, you can"t even compare to the beasts in the land of evil demons, and you"re not as useful as them. You"ll only be a waste of food if you stay here. If the ripple of fog comes to you one day, you"ll just be cannon fodder. So, if you really don"t want to cultivate, for the sake of your safety, you"d better return to the Cheng family!" Leng ruoxue sighed helplessly. Of course, Cheng Xuan had asked her to say this. Ever since Cheng mu had arrived at the devil"s Land, she had been like a wild horse that had lost its reins. She was nowhere to be seen. How could Cheng Xuan not be anxious?
