Ouyang Fu and Han Xuan were having a tea while chatting. Han Xuan could see that Ouyang Fu had a high status in the entire General's Mansion. Otherwise, how could an ordinary housekeeper entertain guests like his master? He was not as good as a servant at all. It also shows that although Ouyang Zhe looked reckless, he was very easy-going to his subordinates or servants.
The two chatted for a while, and the guards outside informed Ouyang Zhe to return home. Han Xuan and Venerable Huo Ling quickly stood up and greeted Ouyang Fu. However, as soon as they walked out of the hall, Han Xuan's eyes were closely attracted by the familiar figure and could no longer move. The beautiful eyes on his still fair face were also looking at him foolishly.
But it was Shangguan Lingxue, who always appeared in his mind when he was in his spare time. Ouyang Zhe saw the two of them smiling and led everyone to take two steps, but Shangguan Lingxue was still standing there, winked at the Venerable Huo Ling, and said, "I'm thirsty, Afu, prepare tea for me, Huo Lin, can we drink together?" Then he said to the people behind him: "Go and do your business!"
The guards said they had retreated. The Huo Ling nodded understandingly. As Ouyang Zhe returned to the living room to drink tea again, only Han Xuan and Shangguan Lingxue were left in the huge courtyard. They looked at each other for a long time. They saw Shangguan Lingxue not knowing what he thought of. Two red clouds appeared on his face and said shyly: "Are you here? Have you finished all the things you want to do? I haven't seen you for a few years, are you okay?"
"I'm not standing in front of you well. This time a problem in my mind has been solved, so I came to the South Fire Empire to see you."
"Just look at me? Is there anything else to do next?"
"I still have a lot to do. The demon race has not been eradicated yet, and my parents' souls have not been found. It's just that these cannot be done overnight, but I really want to see you."
Shangguan Lingxue's cheeks turned redder and she whispered: "You will be so slick. You are very majestic now. Almost everyone knows the five empires. Where can I still have time to miss me!"
"You should know me very well, knowing that those are not my original intention, but the world of monks is so cruel. I will not be the ants that can be bullied."
"What are your plans next?"
"Senior Qinglong once said that the demons might rise soon, so that I would have to go back to his place after I broke through my cultivation level. I think I should go to his place first."
"Then I..." Shangguan Lingxue suddenly stopped and said nothing.
"What?"
After a long time, Shangguan Lingxue seemed to have made a great decision before saying, "Then can I go with you?"
Han Xuan smiled slightly, grabbed Shangguan Lingxue's white and tender little hand as white as mutton fat and said, "Of course, what do you think I'm here? I said that when I have the strength to protect you, we will never be separated as long as you are willing."
As soon as Han Xuan finished speaking, Shangguan Lingxue's eyes were filled with tears. She bit her lower lip tightly, and she rushed into Han Xuan's arms without a sound, and said softly: "I'm really afraid that you will refuse again. This time I will never leave you no matter what I say."
Han Xuan smiled and gently stroked Shangguan Lingxue's obvious weak jade back and said, "I reject you because I don't want you to take risks with me, silly girl!"
The two hugged each other in the courtyard without saying a word. They had not separated for a long time. Finally, Shangguan Lingxue broke the calm moment and said softly: "What are you thinking?"
"Miss you!"
"Nonsense, I'm right by your side, what do you miss me?"
"I'm wondering what magic you have cast on me that can actually occupy my heart."
Shangguan Lingxue snorted, and her pink fist fell on Han Xuan's chest like raindrops, and said, "You are so bad, when did you say these words? I really doubt who you have met outside in the past few years, and you have learned so improperly."
"I'm telling the truth. Unless I'm practicing in the past few years, I'll always think of you."
"Then why haven't you contacted me in the past few years? I have always kept the notes you sent me to thousands of miles."
"I dare not, I am afraid that I will come to see you immediately after I contact you without the determination to continue practicing."
"Okay, you can talk. This time I won't blame you anymore. Anyway, you won't be able to escape from now on. I want to tie you tightly to your side."
"Oh, that's it, then we have to see if you have this charm. Maybe we will always be together, and you will not want to see it as you look at it, haha."
"Dare you dare" Shangguan Lingxue raised his fist again and acted to hit him.
Han Xuan showed a very scared face and said repeatedly: "I dare not."
Shangguan Lingxue then put down her fist and returned to calm again and said, "Do you know, I have been waiting for this day to come over the years, waiting for you to take me out of here. At first, every time I see you, I will be in danger to protect me. I am very afraid that I will implicate you, but now it is different. I have obtained the true teachings of the First Alchemist of the Royal Royal of the Southern Fire Empire. I am already an alchemist. In recent years, I have used the spiritual herbs you gave me to me to refine many useful elixirs. I believe that the days around you can help you very much."
"You have suffered all these years, but I hope that you can learn from your own preferences, not to help me. For me, even if you don't know anything, it doesn't matter. As long as I can protect you, that is my greatest happiness."
"Of course I like to do it, otherwise it will be difficult to persevere. Alchemy is not a light thing. Registration of alchemy is very high, regardless of soul power or Yuan power. The teacher said that my qualifications are very high, and there are few people like me who can become a master of alchemy under twenty years old."
Han Xuan knew that Shangguan Lingxue must not be as simple as qualifications. She must have suffered a lot over the years. Otherwise, how could she become a master of alchemy at such a young age? Unless she has a special adventure like herself, it is difficult to achieve something.
Han Xuan looked at Shangguan Lingxue who had once again crawled into his arms and said happily: "I really hope that this moment will stop forever, but there are really too many things waiting for us to do. When do you think we will set off? I think the faster the better, what do you think?"
Shangguan Lingxue left Han Xuan's arms, shook her head and said, "No, the Alchemist Guild will hold an alchemy competition in three months. My teacher is an elder of the Alchemist Guild's Alchemist Headquarters. He asked me to participate in this competition. The teacher also said that you can see many of the best young alchemists from all over the Five Elements Continent, including the four major soul tribes, where they are very important to my accumulation of experience. The teacher is very good to me and I cannot let him down."
Han Xuan was stunned and suddenly remembered that Sima Zhuo had mentioned the alchemy competition to him. At that time, he said it was five years later, but this year, he was busy with cultivation for so many years and almost forgot about this matter. So he said, "I know this competition. I have promised that Teacher Sima Tu and his brother will definitely participate if they have time. If you remind me, I would almost forget it. Since this is the case, wait three months before participating in the competition before leaving. I happened to meet the promising young people among the four soul clans for a while."
"Have you ever contacted the four soul clans?"
Han Xuan shook his head and said, "No, but Teacher Sima Tu is from the Sima family, which is from the four major soul tribes. Maybe I should do something for the teacher this time."
An unusual light flashed in Han Xuan's eyes, and he thought to himself: "Teacher, don't worry, I will ask you to raise your head in front of the family that throws you away."
Then he said to Shangguan Lingxue: "Xueer, do you have any rules in this alchemy competition? You should know something. Tell me, I don't know anything about this."
Shangguan Lingxue thought for a while and said, "The rules are very simple. Usually, the jury will give questions. Our alchemist competition is the jury. It will be a question to see who refined the elixirs of high quality. I think the formation talisman master competition should not be much worse. If you want to know more, I will take you to the Alchemist Guild tomorrow and you will know."
