Ling Xiao's excited expression suddenly froze, and then he turned stiffly and saw Lu Huanxi with a faint smile on his face.
Ling Xiao took a deep breath and felt panicked inside.
To be honest, this was the first time he had done this, and he couldn't help but look at Mu'er's profile.
But if Mu'er knew about this...
Ling Xiao's spine gets chills just thinking about this consequence.
Moreover, Lu Huanxi actually... didn't sleep? Or, she came back before this, and I didn't notice it yet...
And didn't she see everything she did just now...
Thinking of this, Ling Xiao was at a loss and looked at Lu Huanxi with a guilty look.
Lu Huanxi sat quietly on the rocking chair, her hands resting on her chin, her satin-like black silk hanging down casually. Her calm starry eyes still had the hazy look of someone who had just woken up, and her whole body had a sense of anxiety and laziness.
Lu Huanxi looked at Ling Xiao who looked embarrassed with interest. She was even more interested in the relationship between the two.
When Ling Xiao woke up, the first thing he did was to care for Mu'er, and Mu'er even stayed at the bedside to take care of Ling Xiao while he was recovering from his injuries, never leaving his side and taking care of every detail.
Although Mu'er's words are unforgiving, her actions reveal her true feelings.
Everything was seen by Lu Huanxi.
"Uh, Sister Huanxi... Good morning, ah..."
Ling Xiao forced himself to smile and put his hands behind his back, standing there blankly like a child who discovered a secret.
Seeing this side of Ling Xiao, Lu Huanxi was deeply interested.
She stood up leisurely, opened her arms and stretched. Under her lazy temperament, Lu Huanxi's proud figure was immediately revealed, and Ling Xiao was stunned for a moment.
Lu Huanxi at this moment was very different from her usual self. If Lu Huanxi at ordinary times was as calm as water, then Lu Huanxi at this time was full of fatal charm.
Without paying too much attention to Ling Xiao's gaze, Lu Huanxi raised her eyebrows slightly and motioned for Ling Xiao to leave the thatched cottage.
Ling Xiao looked at the beautiful figure in front of him in surprise, and without thinking too much, he followed closely.
The morning light has not yet arrived, and the Lingxi Mountains are still shrouded in darkness. Lu Huanxi is a few years older than Ling Xiao, but her height is already the same as Ling Xiao's, and her tall figure turns around lightly.
A pair of starry eyes turned into a lake of tranquility again, without saying a word, just staring at Ling Xiao quietly.
Ling Xiao also felt a little uncomfortable with her gaze.
"I haven't asked Mu'er yet, what is your name?"
Lu Huanxi's tone was calm, but there was an irresistible toughness in her words.
"Uh, Ling Xiao." Ling Xiao answered truthfully.
"Ling...Xiao." Lu Huanxi lowered her eyes and asked leisurely, "Do you know the origin of your last name?"
Hearing this, Ling Xiao did not say anything, but slowly shook his head. He had no way of answering Lu Huanxi's question.
"The surname Ling comes from one of the five existing holy realms - the Mighty Sword Realm." Lu Huanxi said leisurely.
"Sacred territory?"
Ling Xiao was stunned for a moment. He felt unfamiliar with this unfamiliar word.
Seeing Ling Xiao thinking, Lu Huanxi walked leisurely to his side, her mouth slightly opened, and her soft voice kept lingering in Ling Xiao's ears.
"The Sanctuary is the top force in the world. Every family and sect has to go through decades or even hundreds of years of accumulation from its initial establishment to its gradual growth. As for the Sanctuary, the history of each of them has been
Thousands of years, even close to ten thousand years."
Lu Huanxi's words were devoid of any emotion, but Ling Xiao was shocked after hearing this.
"Ten thousand years?"
Ling Xiao exclaimed and froze on the spot. According to his understanding, the Tiancang Empire had only existed for a thousand years, but the history of the Holy Domain was several times longer than those of these two empires.
Ignoring Ling Xiao's astonishment, Lu Huanxi continued, "Most of the holy realms have lost touch with worldly affairs, except for one holy realm. They are the founders and rulers of the Shen Zhuan Empire - Neptune Palace."
"Thousands of years ago, Neptune Shrine separated nearly half of its power in the southern part of the continent, unified all the divisions, and established the Shenzhuan Empire. So far, the Shenzhuan Empire is called an empire. In fact, it is actually a sacred territory, and Neptune Shrine
It is also the holy place that has the most frequent contact with the world among the five holy places."
The structure of the world is just as Lu Huanxi said. The Neptune Palace suddenly intervened in the secular world a thousand years ago, and established a huge political system with its strong strength and means, thus evolving into the current Shen Zhuan Empire.
"The Neptune Palace is a sacred realm that is exposed to the eyes of the world. Compared to him, the Divine Mighty Sword Realm hidden in the dark is even more terrifying."
Lu Huanxi paused and continued, "In the Divine Mighty Sword Domain, ancestors are divided into five major surnames: Zhan, Ling, Yun, Li, and Yu, and your surname is the second-ranked surname after Zhan.
generation."
Lu Huanxi's words became solemn. Ling Xiao may not know what the Ling family name means in the mainland, but she has experienced the world and understands the weight of this word better than anyone else.
Ling Xiao was thoughtful, Lu Huanxi's words were all analyzing his life experience, but he knew nothing about his life experience and origin.
But now, Ling Xiao's strength and vision are simply not enough to understand this.
When they arrived at the Lingxi Mountains, Mu'er and Ling Xiao never revealed their surnames to Lu Huanxi, but she seemed to have expected it. What she said to her today also had profound meaning.
"Why are you talking about this..."
Ling Xiao raised his eyebrows lightly. He really couldn't see through the woman in front of him. Maybe it was her cold appearance and personality, or maybe it was the sense of mystery that was revealed all over her body.
He didn't understand what Lu Huanxi wanted to do, what she wanted to do, or even a trace of her inner thoughts.
Looking at the pensive and alert Ling Xiao, Lu Huanxi slowly shook her head.
"I just want you to understand that after leaving the Lingxi Mountains, don't reveal your surname and first name to others at will, because this will cause unnecessary trouble. Although I don't know who your parents are, I am sure that there are many people behind them.
The background is not simple, and you have no idea what you will face in the future."
Lu Huanxi's words were pertinent and gentle, like admonishment and advice.
Hearing this, Ling Xiao nodded slowly.
"Although I don't know who Mu'er is, her experience and city are beyond your ability to deal with. If she knows your name, I'm afraid she will know these things much better than me."
Lu Huanxi said quietly, with no emotion in her calm eyes.
Hearing this, Ling Xiao's heart trembled.
"By the way, what's your name?"
"Ling Xiao."
"Ling...Xiao, what a good name."
Recalling her expression at that time, Ling Xiao now understood the deep meaning, but no matter when the two of them got along or at other times.
Mu'er always calls herself "little beggar."
Perhaps, after she knew all this, she would use her own way to protect herself...
A warmth arose in Ling Xiao's heart. It was a detail that he didn't care about at first, but it suddenly touched Ling Xiao's heart.
"By the way, one more thing. When Mu'er took you to escape, he probably didn't do any trace processing. Therefore, your enemies are now waiting for you outside the Lingxi Mountains."
Lu Huanxi's words made Ling Xiao frown. What Lu Huanxi said was also what Ling Xiao expected.
After all, the Ye family and the Tiangang Sect did not take it easy. They killed the disciples of the Ye family and the grandson of the elders, and also personally deposed the second elder of the Tiangang Sect. He and Liang Zi of Huang Yuancheng were completely forged.
"So, what do you want to say?"
Ling Xiao walked vigorously towards Lu Huanxi, gradually closing the distance between the two. Looking at Lu Huanxi who was as quiet as usual and mysterious in front of him, Ling Xiao did not feel the slightest fear.
"What I want to say is that I will not interfere in external affairs, and I am not interested in your grievances. However, you can practice in the Lingxi Mountains. There is plenty of spiritual power here. You will not leave until you reach the original realm.
Mountains.”
Ling Xiao was puzzled, very puzzled. Looking at the girl in front of him, he felt helpless, but as if he had thought of something, Ling Xiao did not speak.
The two of them looked at each other in silence, taking a deep look at the young man in front of them. She gently stretched out her jade hand and put it on Ling Xiao's shoulder, and then left slowly.
"Another terrible woman..."
Looking at the gradually disappearing figure, Ling Xiao felt slightly uneasy.
Lu Huanxi...
The master of Lingxi Mountains.
The current Baichanzi.
With her status, he could be said to be of no value to her. Ling Xiao did not know her purpose or her intentions.
Since she knew that Tiangang Sect was coming, Lu Huanxi would definitely use her own efforts to make Tiangang Sect surrender.
What kind of strength and courage is this.
Lu Huanxi, her body is too foggy, and her behavior is difficult to fathom.
It's better to be careful when dealing with such a woman.
"She's not weird, she just doesn't want you two to die."
Beside him, a hoarse voice sounded, and the familiar tone startled Ling Xiao, and then he turned around suddenly.
At some point, the Evil Dead Son had appeared beside him. His whole body was still as black as ink, floating in the air like a hazy black mist.
"Old man! You're awake!"
Ling Xiao looked at Xie Shizi in surprise. He woke up just in time to start practicing again. This timing was also extremely perfect.
"Brat!"
Xie Shizi frowned slightly, his cloudy eyes were filled with calmness, but this time he did not teach Ling Xiao a lesson.
"hey-hey……"
Ling Xiao smiled and looked at Xie Shizi with a flattering expression.
This time, if the evil dead son hadn't made the final move to repel the Tiangang Sect's disciples, and then sacrificed his soul power to protect his own heart, Ling Xiao and Mu'er would have died by now.
"Forget it this time, if there is a next time, I will..."
Xie Shizi snorted coldly and raised his right hand. Ling Xiao was also frightened and backed away.
"Hiss...I know, I know."
Ling Xiao was also sensible, and when he saw that Xie Shizi was planning to teach him a lesson, he instantly gave in.
Ling Xiao's mischievous side, Xie Shizi had no choice but not angry.
