"How could it be?" Lin Hai smiled. Du Juan was no different to him than an ant.
Whether it was life or death, it would not cause even a single ripple in Lin Hai's heart.
However, Xu Ling seemed to be afraid that Lin Hai would be dissatisfied and said timidly.
"Dongfang Ye, don't blame me. I know that my cousin, Senior Brother Hu and the others planned to kill you together. You have the right reason to kill her."
"But many years ago, my Xu family was in trouble, and it was my cousin's family who took us in. The Du family was kind to us, so I can't watch her die!"
"Oh? The Xu family is in trouble?" When Lin Hai heard this, his heart suddenly moved.
Then, an idea suddenly popped up.
"It can't be such a coincidence, right?"
Thinking of this, Lin Hai suddenly looked at Xu Ling and asked seriously.
"Ling'er, let me ask you a question, where did your Xu family flee to this place?"
"I heard from my dad that he came from the central area!"
"Central area!!!" Lin Hai's pupils shrank. Could it be that the Xu family in Xu Ling's mouth...
"Ling'er, is there a person named Xu Shiyuan in your family?"
"Ah!!!" When Xu Ling heard Lin Hai mention Xu Shiyuan, she exclaimed and covered her mouth.
Then, he looked at Lin Hai with a horrified face, and was speechless for a moment.
"Ling'er, are you okay?"
Lin Hai was stunned for a moment, but soon showed a look of surprise. Xu Ling's expression was enough to show that he knew Xu Shiyuan!
If there are no accidents, the Xu family where Xu Ling lives is the family of Xu Guangchun!
"Ling'er, you know Xu Shiyuan, right? Don't worry, I'm not a bad person!"
With a face of panic and fear, Xu Ling looked at Lin Hai warily, with confusion and doubt in his eyes.
"It's like this. I was entrusted by my old friend. If I meet a descendant of the Xu family, I have to take care of him!"
"If you know Xu Shiyuan, please bring me to meet him. I have a treasure to give to him!"
Lin Hai calmed down his excitement and said with a kind face.
Xu Ling stared at Lin Hai for a long time, almost making Lin Hai feel uncomfortable, and then said timidly.
"Is what you said true?"
"Of course it's true!" Lin Hai nodded heavily.
"Are you not a bad person? Are you not here to hunt down our Xu family?" Xu Ling asked again.
Lin Hai smiled slightly, "Do you think I look like a bad person?"
"It's not like that." Xu Ling stared with big eyes and shook his head.
"Haha, let's not get married then!" Lin Hai laughed.
"Ling'er, let's leave the dark forest now. Can you take me to see Xu Shiyuan?"
"Okay, okay!" Xu Ling hesitated for a long time before nodding in agreement.
"However, you must promise me not to harm anyone in the Xu family!"
"Don't worry, the Xu family are my friends!" Lin Hai said seriously.
At the same time, he was completely defeated by Xu Ling's innocence.
Fortunately, he is really not a bad person, otherwise the Xu family would have been completely betrayed by this little girl.
"Let's go, take me to see Xu Shiyuan now!"
Lin Hai took Xu Ling, who was dubious, except for the dark forest.
"How far is the Xu family from here?" Lin Hai asked.
"After leaving the mountain, walk a thousand miles to the east and then eight hundred miles to the north."
"It's not far, let's walk there!"
Lin Hai smiled at Xu Ling and said that the reason why he did not let Xiao Hong fly over was that Lin Hai wanted to inquire about the current situation of the Xu family on the way.
"Um!"
Xu Ling agreed and walked side by side with Lin Hai.
"What kind of person is Xu Shiyuan? Can you introduce him to me?" Lin Hai asked curiously.
He is still curious as to why Xu Guangchun asked him to give an immortal sword to this man named Xu Shiyuan.
Moreover, I was not allowed to say that it was a gift from him, only that it was a gift from me.
"Xu Shiyuan, he is actually my grandfather!" Xu Ling said suddenly.
"Ah?" Lin Hai was startled, then burst into laughter. He never expected that Xu Ling and Xu Shiyuan had such a close relationship.
"My grandpa is a very good man, he treats people kindly, has a kind face, and loves me very much, but he doesn't talk much."
When Xu Ling mentioned his grandfather, a look of anger suddenly appeared on his face.
"But I don't know why, the entire Xu family hates my grandfather."
"Many people even scolded him in front of his face, saying that he was a scourge to the Xu family. Why didn't he die earlier?"
Xu Ling's little fists clenched suddenly, and tears suddenly rolled in her big, smart eyes.
"When I was very young, I saw with my own eyes that some elders of my family beat my dearest grandfather so badly that he vomited blood and almost died!"
"But my grandfather never fought back when faced with their bullying. He always endured the humiliation."
"Once, I asked my grandfather very confusedly, why he was so cowardly and why he didn't resist?"
"It was that time when my grandfather suddenly exuded a terrifying aura that made my soul tremble. I realized how powerful my grandfather was!"
"Is your grandfather a Mahayana master?" Lin Hai narrowed his eyes and asked in surprise.
"I don't know, I only know that grandpa is very powerful!" Xu Ling continued.
"Grandpa told me that he didn't resist, not because of cowardice, but because he did something that made the entire Xu family lonely and hunted by their enemies, so they had to live under the shelter of others, which put the Xu family in the embarrassment they are in today."
"But he also said that he did not do anything wrong based on circumstances and reasons, but for the Xu family, he did something wrong."
"So, he didn't mind even when the Xu family beat him, scolded him and hated him, because that was the punishment he deserved!"
"Deserved punishment?" Lin Hai raised his eyebrows, and the doubts in his eyes grew stronger.
Faintly, Lin Hai felt that Xu Shiyuan's current situation was most likely related to Xu Guangchun.
Otherwise, Xu Guangchun would never allow himself to send a rare and precious immortal weapon to Xu Shiyuan.
After a moment of silence, Lin Hai suddenly asked.
"Do you know Xu Guangchun?"
"Xu Guangchun?" Xu Ling looked confused, then shook his head.
"I've never heard of him. Who is he? Is he also a member of my Xu family?"
"No, I just asked casually!" Lin Hai smiled.
As Xu Shiyuan's granddaughter, Xu Ling didn't know about Xu Guangchun, which made Lin Hai feel more and more strange that there was something fishy here.
"Who is chasing your Xu family?" Lin Hai asked again.
"I don't know either!" Xu Ling shook his head, "I just heard that the other party is extremely powerful, so powerful that the Xu family can be wiped out with a wave of his hand!"
"Oh!" Lin Hai nodded, "Who is the strongest person in your Xu family?"
"It's my great grandfather, Xu Shizhang. My great grandfather is the Mahayana Master!" After Xu Ling finished speaking, a look of doubt suddenly appeared in his eyes and he said.
"However, I always feel that my grandfather should be a little more powerful than my great grandfather."
When Lin Hai heard this, he smiled slightly, what a silly girl.
If Xu Shiyuan was not the strongest person in the Xu family, how could he survive to this day based on the experiences she mentioned?
Although Lin Hai didn't know what Xu Shiyuan had done to make him the enemy of the entire Xu family.
But what is certain is that if the Xu family had not been able to do anything to Xu Shiyuan, someone would have killed him long ago!
"It seems that Xu Shiyuan is also a man with a story!"
Half an hour later, Lin Hai and Xu Ling appeared in front of a magnificent and spacious manor. "Dongfang Ye, this is where my Xu family lives, the Du family in Dongchuan!"
