Although Hua Xiong sent an elder to kill Haifu to avenge Hua Xiuling, Hua Xiuling was not happy at all because she knew that from now on, she would never go down the mountain to play again...
As expected, Hua Xiuling was worried when Hua Xiong spoke: "Xiuling, from today on, you are not allowed to leave the Weapon Refining Sect for even half a step, do you hear me!"
"Grandpa...I..." Hua Xiuling was about to speak, but was interrupted by Hua Xiong.
"What? Doesn't what I say now work?" Hua Xiong's face sank.
"No... I just..." Hua Xiuling waved her hands hurriedly: "Grandpa, you know me, if I stay in the Weapon Refining Sect all day long, I will get depressed..."
"What's there to be depressed about? From today on, you stay in the Weapon Refining Sect to practice and you can't go anywhere!" Hua Xiong turned to look at the dark-faced man sitting on the fourth chair: "Elder Wu
, please inform me that from today onwards, Xiuling will not be allowed to leave the Weapon Refining Sect even half a step, and especially tell the disciples guarding the mountain gate that if they dare to let Xiuling go down the mountain, they will be punished according to the sect's rules!"
"Yes!" The black-faced man nodded.
After listening to Hua Xiong's words, Hua Xiuling was immediately discouraged. It's over, it's over. She will never go down the mountain to play again.
"Grandpa... I don't have to go down the mountain to play, but you must let Li Tianqi join the Weapon Refining Sect." Hua Xiuling began to bargain.
Hua Xiong turned to look at Li Tianqi: "You saved Xiuling's life, I will express my gratitude. As for your joining the Weapon Refining Sect... I need to think about it carefully."
"Grandpa... Is there anything else to consider? Just let Li Tianqi join the Weapon Refining Sect." Hua Xiuling began to plead.
Hua Xiong frowned: "This involves sect rules. I have to think carefully about it. Okay, Xiuling, you must be tired just after you came back. Go down and have a rest. By the way, go see your dad."
, you sneaked down the mountain and made your father worried... Go quickly, your father will be very happy to see you come back safely."
"What about Li Tianqi?" Hua Xiuling asked worriedly.
"I will arrange a place for him. Anyway, he saved your life, I won't treat him badly," Hua Xiong said.
"That's pretty much it." Hua Xiuling muttered, leaving Li Tianqi in the Weapon Refining Sect for now. As for joining the Weapon Refining Sect as a disciple, she could figure out a way later. Hua Xiuling felt that she had made some miscalculations.
She originally thought that it would be easy for Li Tianqi to join the Weapon Refining Sect based on her own recommendation, but unexpectedly Hua Xiong disagreed, which made Hua Xiuling very depressed.
"Okay, Xiuling, go see your dad quickly." After saying that, Hua Xiong rushed out the door and shouted: "Here comes someone!"
"Whoa!"
A young disciple entered the main hall.
Hua Xiong pointed at Li Tianqi and told the young disciple: "He is a distinguished guest of the Weapon Refining Sect. Please arrange a place for him. Remember, the environment should be better."
"No need to go to such trouble." Hua Xiuling suddenly said: "I'd better help Li Tianqi arrange a place to live..."
"This kind of thing can be handled by the disciples below. You don't need to worry about it." Hua Xiong waved his hand.
"But..." Hua Xiuling wanted to say something else.
"What? Are you worried? Are you worried that I will harm Li Tianqi?" Hua Xiong's face darkened.
"No...I definitely don't have this idea. Grandpa, you misunderstood..." Hua Xiuling shook her head hurriedly.
Hua Xiong breathed out gently: "Xiuling, Li Tianqi is your savior, I will never hurt him..." After saying that, Hua Xiong turned to look at the young disciple: "What are you still doing?
Why don't you quickly take little friend Li Tianqi to rest."
The young disciple hurriedly made a "please" gesture to Li Tianqi: "Fellow Taoist, please." This young disciple was in the foundation-building stage, so he called Li Tianqi "Fellow Taoist."
Li Tianqi glanced at Hua Xiuling, and then followed the young disciple out of the hall.
"Grandpa, I'm going to find my dad." After saying that, Hua Xiuling raised her feet and wanted to leave.
"Wait!" Hua Xiong shouted.
Hua Xiuling paused, turned her head, and looked at Hua Xiong doubtfully: "Grandpa, are you okay?"
"Xiuling, there were things I couldn't say in front of Li Tianqi just now..." Hua Xiong said in a deep voice, "Do you know the origin of this Li Tianqi?"
"Of course I understand." Hua Xiuling nodded: "Li Tianqi is just a casual cultivator."
"Why do you believe what Li Tianqi said is true?" Hua Xiong asked.
Hua Xiuling was stunned: "Grandpa, what do you mean by this? Do you suspect that Li Tianqi lied to me? Grandpa, I tell you, Li Tianqi will never lie to me, absolutely not."
"Why are you so sure that Li Tianqi didn't lie to you?" Hua Xiong said.
"There's no reason, it's just an intuition... Besides, why did Li Tianqi make up lies to deceive me?" Hua Xiuling's face looked a little ugly.
"Alas..." Hua Xiong sighed: "Xiu Ling, you should have heard of the term "people's hearts are sinister". You are my granddaughter, Hua Xiong. Just based on this alone, many people will take advantage of you.
…”
"Grandpa, please stop talking." Hua Xiuling interrupted Hua Xiong: "Li Tianqi is affectionate and kind to me. If you want to say that he lied to me, even if you beat me to death, I won't believe it. Okay.
Alright, I'm going to find my dad." After saying that, Hua Xiuling quickly left the hall.
Hua Xiong shook his head with a wry smile: "This girl Xiuling is still too simple and trusts people too easily."
"Master, do you want me to send someone to check the details of that Li Tianqi?" said the old woman sitting on the fifth chair. The people in the hall were all seated according to their status. Sitting on the first chair
Of course it's Hua Xiong. The middle-aged man sitting on the second chair is Luo Tong, the great elder of the Weapon Refining Sect, who is at the peak of mid-Nascent Soul cultivation. The bald man sitting on the third chair is the second elder Chen Tietou.
, the black-faced man sitting on the fourth chair is the third elder Wu Qinghe, and the old woman sitting on the fifth chair is the fourth elder Madam Hu, who is also the only female elder of the Weapon Refining Sect, sitting on the sixth
The person sitting on the chair is a white-faced old man. This old man is called Kong Fenglin, and he is the fifth elder of the Weapon Refining Sect.
Among the five elders, except for the great elder Luo Tong, who is a monk in the middle stage of Yuanying, the other four are all monks in the early stage of Yuanying.
Hua Xiong nodded: "We want to check the details of Li Tianqi to see if he got close to Xiuling on purpose... Elder Hu, I leave the investigation of Li Tianqi's details to you. Remember, it must be kept confidential.
We must not let Xiuling know, otherwise this girl will get angry with me again."
"Don't worry, Master, I will keep it confidential." Madam Hu said with a smile.
…
After Hua Xiuling left the hall, she did not go directly to her father, but went after Li Tianqi. Fortunately, Li Tianqi didn't go far and was quickly caught up by Hua Xiuling.
After catching up with Li Tianqi, Hua Xiuling sent the young disciple away, and then personally led Li Tianqi towards the back mountain.
At first the young disciple refused to leave, but later he reluctantly left after Hua Xiuling threatened her. Hua Xiuling was a little witch in the Weapon Refining Sect, and no disciple dared to provoke her.
The Weapon Refining Sect has built more than a dozen small courtyards in the back mountain. These small courtyards are prepared for those who come to the Weapon Refining Sect as guests. These small courtyards are built with huge stones. They are very unique and grand.
The residence arranged by Hua Xiuling for Li Tianqi has the best location and the largest area among all the small courtyards.
"Xiuling, am I not allowed to join the Weapon Refining Sect?" Li Tianqi hesitated and asked.
"Don't think so wildly. I'm here to ensure that you can join the Weapon Refining Sect!" Hua Xiuling said with a smile.
"But your grandfather..." Li Tianqi frowned.
"My grandfather is quite stubborn and dull. When I go back and intercede with him, he will agree to let you join the Weapon Refining Sect." Hua Xiuling stood up and said, "Li Tianqi, you can rest first. I will come back in the evening."
Look at you, now I’m going to find my dad.”
"Well, go ahead." Li Tianqi stood up and sent Hua Xiuling out of the house.
After waving to Li Tianqi, Hua Xiuling left the small courtyard.
After Hua Xiuling left, the smile on Li Tianqi's face suddenly disappeared, replaced by sadness: "Alas...it seems that it will not be easy for me to join the Weapon Refining Sect this time."
…
Inside an antique house.
A slightly fat, handsome middle-aged man was sitting on a chair reading a book. He naturally exuded a domineering air. This man was none other than Hua Xiuling's biological father, Hua Shaolong, a monk in the middle stage of the Golden Elixir.
.
"Dad!" A shout suddenly came from outside.
Hua Shaolong's body was shaken, he hurriedly put down the book in his hand, stood up and rushed out, shouting: "Is Xiuling back?" When Hua Shaolong came to the door, a figure rushed in.
In his arms.
"Dad, my daughter misses you so much." The figure who threw herself into Hua Shaolong's arms was Hua Xiuling.
"Xiuling, you are finally back. The time you went down the mountain made me worried..." Hua Shaolong pushed Hua Xiuling away from his arms and looked up and down carefully: "Xiu Ling"
Ling, why have you lost so much weight..."
"Where have I lost weight? Dad, are you just blinding me? I feel like I've gained weight." Hua Xiuling said with a smile.
"Fat?" Hua Shaolong glared at Hua Xiuling: "Do you really think my eyesight is blurred? Are you fat or thin? Can't I see it?"
"Okay, okay, it's okay if I lose weight!" Hua Xiuling didn't want to argue with Hua Shaolong anymore: "In fact, girls should be thinner, so that they look slim and good-looking..."
"Nonsense." Hua Shaolong curled his lips: "Women are the most beautiful when they are plump, and they are also the most attractive to men... Just like your mother, she had a very plump figure. I don't know how many men were fascinated by her at that time...
Hey, Xiuling, why do you look so ugly? Are you feeling unwell?"
Hua Xiuling shook her head and sighed: "It has been almost ten years since my mother passed away."
