Eleventh Elder opened up his mouth and spit out a mouthful of blood. Hecouldn’t hold himself up but stumbled a few steps backward before he was ableto look up.
When he saw the man in midair, he was surprised. It was him again!
The same man who saved him last time appeared again today! Except thathe wasn’t alone this time, there was another girl riding on another immortalcrane next to him.
Only those from Temple of Divine Plans possessed immortal cranes, that’scommon knowledge to everyone from this continent. He cupped his hand and said,“Greetings, two seniors…”
The men in azure who were sent flying looked at the two persons inmidair, surprised. They could tell they were no ordinary people, thatcompounded by the fact that Eleventh Elders were showing them so much respect.They couldn’t help but recalled the words of Cheng Xing.
He said it was a man riding an immortal crane who saved Eleventh Elderlast time, and now there’s another man with an immortal crane. Could he be…
They stared intensely at the man and woman floating above them. Anxiouswith uncertainties, they dared not show any disrespect.
Mo Xuanzun nodded slightly to him before looking sideways to Cheng XiaoXiao and asked gently, “Xiao Xiao what do you want to do with them?”
“Up to you!” Cheng Xiao Xiao’s look was chilling. She had no fondnesswhatever toward those who showed no mercy at all even toward their own family.
As though he had sensed the coldness in her eyes, Mo Xuanzun noddedslightly and decided there were no reason to hold anything back. He casuallylifted his hand and pointed at the men below him.
Each and every single person that he pointed at shrieked, and theirchilling shrieks echoed inside the small courtyard.
With their cultivations all destroyed, the men were so distressed thattheir eyes could bleed. As devastated as they were, there weren’t much theycould do. Such was the nature of a dog eat dog world, when one was in front ofsomeone stronger than them, their lives were in their hands.
“Now scram!”
A cold voice floated toward them and they dared not stay another minutelonger. One by one they scrambled away as fast as they could.
The two of them hopped off from the back of the immortal cranes andCheng Xiao Xiao looked at the pitiful and somewhat unfortunate Eleventh Elderand was speechless for a while there.
The Eleventh Elder looked at the two young people in front of him. Thegirl, in particular, gave him a feeling of familiarity. But he couldn’t becertain whether she was who he thought she was.
“These two seniors….”
Cheng Yu had just started to talk when a jade bottle appeared in MoXuanzun’s hand. He handed it over to him and said to him, “Don’t talk, EleventhElder. Let’s take care of your injuries first. Take one of these pills and yourinjury will stabilize quickly.”
“Thank you….” Cheng Yu looked at the two of them as he took the bottlefrom him, poured out a pill, and swallowed it.
“Dad!”
“Grandpa!”
The voices of an adult and a child came from inside the house. Runningtoward them were Cheng Yu’s daughter and grandson, the only ones left in hisbloodline.
Seeing Mo Xuanzun and Cheng Xiao Xiao, they both looked alarmed andanxious.
Yet, as soon as Cheng HuiHui had a good look of the girl standing infront of them, she looked startled and shouted, “You are Xiao Xiao?”
“Ugh..” Xiao Xiao was baffled too. She knew her?
But, that would make sense when she thought about it. Cheng Xiao Xiaohad, after all, living at the Cheng’s for upward of ten years. Naturally thisyoung woman in her teens would have met her before.
“Yes, I am Cheng Xiao Xiao, and you are… ?”
“Xiao Xiao, I am aunty Huihui. Have you forgotten about me?” ChengHuihui was a bit baffled. The two of them were relatively close before. Shedidn’t think Cheng Xiao Xiao would have forgotten all about her in just 3-4years.
“I apologize!” said Cheng Xiao Xiao to her apologetically. “I wasinjured about a year ago and forgotten a lot of my past. Do forgive me!”
Cheng Yu asked in disbelief, “You really are Xiao Xiao?” She had changedso much that he still couldn’t be entirely certain.
