It was drizzling slightly, and the eaves of the blue-tiled roofs were mostly covered with green moss.
The weather may sound gloomy, but the air after the rain is completely fresh.
In the inn.
Yue Lingshan had just poured a cup of warm tea, but unexpectedly Qu Feiyan suddenly reached out and snatched it away.
Yue Lingshan frowned and said displeased.
"You...can't you pour yourself a drink? Why do you have to steal it from me?"
"You are the one who robbed me!" Qu Feiyan's face twisted.
Upon hearing this, Yue Lingshan was speechless.
Qu Feiyan said he was not much older than her, but there was a first-come, first-served rule when entering.
Now she is considered a sister. No matter how delicate Yue Lingshan is on weekdays, now she has no temper to lose.
Yue Lingshan was upset, but Qu Feiyan pinched her cheek and deliberately provoked her.
"If you are angry, you can just leave. I won't stop you."
"..."
"If you don't leave now, that person will come back later and you won't be able to leave."
Listening to Qu Feiyan's repeated urging, Yue Lingshan simply waved her hand and said with a crooked face.
"Why do you want me to leave? I was harmed by him and lost my innocence for nothing. He owes me, so why do you want me to leave?"
"Hey, you little girl is so unreasonable."
When Qu Feiyan heard this, he rolled up his sleeves and tried to act like a big sister.
But she doesn't have Chen Xuan's domineering momentum, so Yue Lingshan will naturally not obey her.
During these few words, the two girls actually started to fight.
Qu Feiyan was originally a little witch, and her grandfather Qu Yang was the elder of the demon sect, so she naturally did not have a good temper.
Yue Lingshan was the apple of the eye of the leader of Huashan, she was naturally pampered and pampered by her fellow apprentices.
Now that the two girls have been taken in by Chen Xuan, they are usually polite to each other, but as soon as Chen Xuan left, there was an immediate commotion.
The two of them were fist-bumping back and forth, and it was a lively fight.
Suddenly there was a knock on the door.
"It's him who's back." Qu Feiyan immediately let go of his hands and acted obediently.
Yue Lingshan secretly hated her, but she was also afraid that Chen Xuan would spank her again.
The two of them looked at each other, and neither of them wanted to feel wronged, so they walked over together, separated themselves from each other, and opened the door.
Qu Feiyan just called out, "Mr. Chen..."
Yue Lingshan then answered, "...are you back?"
Chen Xuan saw the reactions of the two girls in his eyes. Although he wondered why they were so submissive and competing for favor, he couldn't care less at the moment.
Qu Feiyan's sharp eyes saw a woman in Chen Xuan's arms at a glance, and he asked curiously.
"Whose girl is this from?"
"Mother?!"
Yue Lingshan took a closer look, but was immediately dumbfounded.
The woman in Chen Xuan's arms has cold features and is beautiful and smart. Although she is only wearing a plain robe, she still has a graceful appearance. Compared with the two young girls Qu Feiyan and Yue Lingshan, they are naturally very different.
Chen Xuan had already prepared his words and said indifferently.
"She was injured and needs to be nursed back to health."
"Where's the injury?" Yue Lingshan was a little anxious. She just went over to take a look, but she didn't see that Ning Zhongze was injured.
However, Ning Zhongze's eyes were slightly red and there were faint traces of tears on his face, as if he had cried.
Yue Lingshan didn't know yet that Yue Buqun had sold Ning Zhongze to Chen Xuan.
Thinking that Chen Xuan was deliberately causing trouble and forcing Ning Zhongze to submit, he immediately glared at Chen Xuan and shouted sweetly.
"Chen! You are really like a dog! This is too much!"
"I'm more powerful than a dog. Don't you know this best, little junior sister?"
"Bah! Let my mother go!"
"That's not possible. If I let her go now, she will have to bang her head against the wall and die directly."
"What?!" Yue Lingshan was anxious.
Chen Xuan did not explain to her, he just went into the house to deal with Ning Zhongze.
He looked at Ning Zhongze as if he were seeing Huang Rong. Thinking about it, he felt a sense of urgency.
But Yue Lingshan was not willing to let him harm Ning Zhongze, chasing and dragging him all the way.
Chen Xuan raised his eyebrows and simply pulled her into the room and said lazily.
"Okay, okay, since Junior Sister can't bear to leave Junior Sister, let's come in together."
"You... let go! You are such a bold villain!"
Yue Lingshan was startled, but with her small arms and legs, how could she make waves in front of Chen Xuan.
Finally, she became so angry that she burst into tears.
If nothing else, it shocked Chen Xuan.
He looked at Yue Lingshan dumbfounded.
He said he didn't want to talk to her, but he couldn't help but wiped her tears and said with a smile.
"Good madam, why are you here? Since we are husband and wife, just say what you want to say. Why bother crying and making trouble with me? It will make people laugh."
"..."
His words not only expressed his feelings, comforted Yue Lingshan, but also brought Qu Feiyan in.
Qu Feiyan had just had a fight with Yue Lingshan, and the two girls were already making trouble. Now when Yue Lingshan heard that Qu Feiyan saw the joke, she stopped crying immediately.
However, she was still worried about Ning Zhongze, and she immediately burst into tears.
"You...you let my mother go first."
"That's easy to say."
Chen Xuan was surprisingly easy to talk to.
But as soon as he finished speaking, he changed the subject and a hint of cunning flashed in his eyes.
"Little junior sister, you asked me to let her go because you thought I was forcing her to come back with me. Then we might as well make a bet. If Mrs. Ning falls in love with me, you can't stop her."
"This..." Yue Lingshan was stunned for a moment.
She never dared to imagine that Ning Zhongze would be willing to take the initiative to befriend Chen Xuan.
But Chen Xuan appeared to be confident and even wanted to provoke her.
"What's the matter? Junior sister still can't trust her, and she also thinks she's a slut at heart?"
"Bah! It's impossible! Just bet! I don't believe my mother will be willing to be nice to you!"
Yue Lingshan was still hesitant at first, but Chen Xuan was sarcastic and she finally nodded.
Chen Xuan smiled proudly, used his inner strength in his hand, and pinched Ning Zhongze's energy veins on her shoulders and neck, and she faintly woke up.
She opened her eyes in a daze and saw Chen Xuan for the first time. She immediately clenched her fists and was about to take action.
However, when she saw that Yue Lingshan was also in front of her, she was stunned.
When Yue Lingshan saw that she had regained consciousness, she hurriedly pulled her away.
"Mom, come with me quickly, I will take you to find daddy!"
"...Lingshan."
Ning Zhongze's eyes burst into tears, as if he was deeply wronged.
In fact, she was indeed wronged.
Yue Buqun had previously received an order from Zuo Lengchan as the leader of the alliance and went to Mount Song. As expected, he was ridiculed by Zuo Lengchan.
In a hurry, he immediately turned south and went to the Lin family's old house to look for the "Evil Sword Manual" passed down by the Lin family's ancestors.
I didn't want to but was intercepted by Chen Xuan.
Yue Buqun really wanted to ward off evil swords. Whether it was for the growth of the Huashan Sect or the unification of the Five Sacred Sword Sects, the Zixia Magic Technique he had cultivated alone was simply not enough.
Now Chen Xuan gave him the evil-fighting sword manual and promised to help him get rid of Zuo Lengchan. It was really a big surprise.
In desperation, Yue Buqun led Chen Xuan directly to find Ning Zhongze.
Originally, he was a little hesitant when he saw his wife who had been with him for many years, but Chen Xuan threw the cassock containing the evil sword manual directly in front of him.
Looking at the words "If you want to practice this skill, you must first retreat from the palace", he was suddenly startled.
Chen Xuan fanned the flames again, and finally Yue Buqun finally made up his mind, divorced Ning Zhongze directly in front of Chen Xuan, and gave Ning Zhongze to Chen Xuan.
Ning Zhong is such a strong-willed woman, so she certainly doesn't want to.
However, Chen Xuan had quick eyes and quick hands, so he knocked her unconscious and carried her back, fearing that Yue Buqun would regret it.
Unexpectedly, he was blocked by Yue Lingshan as soon as he came back.
Now Ning Zhongze looked at Yue Lingshan with tears in his eyes, feeling unspeakably sad in his heart.
Unexpectedly, Chen Xuan suddenly pinched Yue Lingshan's cheek and joked deliberately.
Seeing that Ning Zhongze's face turned red with anger, Chen Xuan waved his hands knowingly.
"Okay, okay, Mrs. Ning, no more joking. You and I can come in and have a detailed discussion, okay?"
"..."
Ning Zhongze was originally very angry, but he was divorced by Yue Buqun inexplicably before, and now Yue Lingshan is actually at Chen Xuan's residence.
She didn't even have time to get angry now, she only felt countless questions rising in her heart.
After being silent for a while, she finally did not dare to look at Yue Lingshan and walked into the back room, wanting to have a good talk with Chen Xuan.
Looking at this scene, Yue Lingshan's vision went dark and she fainted from anger.
Chen Xuan quickly called to Qu Feiyan to help take care of it, and he happily followed Ning Zhongze to the back room.
As soon as he entered the house, Chen Xuan closed the bead curtain.
Ning Zhong looked at his little move and frowned slightly. He said he was displeased but thought it was okay to avoid Yue Lingshan hearing her talking about Yue Buqun.
Before Chen Xuan could speak, she spoke bluntly.
"What do you want to say to me?"
"I should ask Madam about this. Madam has now been sold to me by Master Yue..."
"Fart!" Ning Zhongze was furious.
Chen Xuan's smile did not change and he said with a smile.
"Good madam, don't be angry first. What's the point of getting angry with me? It's better for us to have a good chat."
"I have nothing to talk about with you!"
"That's not necessarily true. I have been chatting with Master Yue for a long time."
Ning Zhong hesitated for a moment and asked, "...What did he talk to you about?"
Chen Xuan knew that she might still have some feelings for Yue Buqun, but he obviously would not be so kind to give Ning Zhongze back.
"Of course we are talking about the evil-proofing sword manual and the position of leader of the Five Mountains Sword Sect."
"Evil Sword Manual? The position of leader of the Five Mountains Sword Sect?"
"Yes, Master Yue is worthy of being the leader of Huashan. He cares about the world and has high aspirations. He has been eyeing the Lin family's ancestral sword manual early on, and he even asked me to help him. He is indeed a big shot, and he will definitely achieve success in the future.
"
Chen Xuan's words of clear praise and criticism made Ning Zhongze's face become as gloomy as water, and his teeth were probably broken.
It's just that if the tooth is broken, it can only be swallowed. How can she blame Chen Xuan?
After all, it was Yue Buqun who was so obsessed with her that he divorced her himself and gave her to this young man.
Ning Zhong was really unable to defend himself, and felt ashamed and annoyed in his heart. He didn't know why the relationship that had lasted for decades ended up like this.
Just when she was thinking about biting her tongue and committing suicide to be innocent in the world, Chen Xuan poured a cup of tea and chuckled.
"Good madam, don't think too hard. If you die, how can Lingshan girl live alone?"
"...What do you mean?"
"Of course I don't mean anything. I'm just trying to persuade you. I live a hundred years of life and death, so what obstacles are there that I can't overcome? If you meet a person who betrays your heart, it's naturally his fault. Why should you punish yourself and suffer?"
"Don't talk nonsense here! I won't allow you!"
"That's okay, it's just that I have an appointment with Yue Buqun. I don't have to touch Mrs. Ning, but I can't let you go either."
As soon as these words came out, Ning Zhongze faintly heard that he meant to relent, and immediately frowned.
"What's the meaning?"
"It's very simple. To be honest, Yue Buqun and I have another agreement. If you stay honest, you can always be with Lingshan. Besides, everything will happen in the future. Maybe you can leave with Yue Lingshan."
Chen Xuan deliberately made his words ambiguous, while Ning Zhong just thought that he had no intention of harming her, but had just talked to Yue Buqun beforehand.
When I thought about it, I felt much better instantly.
Chen Xuan saw her reaction in his eyes and laughed secretly in his heart.
In fact, he didn't intend to achieve the goal in one step. Now that Ning Zhongze takes the initiative to stay by his side, he has achieved his goal.
Ning Zhong obviously didn't have a good impression of him and said indifferently.
"I promise you, you can leave now."
"There's no rush. I've heard about Mrs. Ning's reputation for a long time, and I want to see you again."
"Chen! Don't get too carried away!"
"I should be the one to say this to Madam. Both of you, mother and daughter, are in my hands. Why are you angry with me?"
"..."
"If you want to blame, then you have to blame your good husband Yue Buqun. I have already deliberately made things difficult for him. Who made him so generous that he had to ask me for help?"
Chen Xuan's words, both inside and outside, were pouring dirty water on Yue Buqun.
But it did have a miraculous effect. When Ning Zhong thought of Yue Buqun's betrayal, his pride and tenacity disappeared instantly, and he became as helpless as a little girl.
Chen Xuan took the opportunity to step forward and hug her.
Unexpectedly, as soon as he reached out his hand, Ning Zhong slapped him on the back of his hand with his backhand.
Although Chen Xuan was in pain, there was a trace of cruel and evil evil flashing in his eyes, as if he was stimulated by Ning Zhongze, and he picked her up without any explanation.
Ning Zhong said angrily, "Let go!"
But Chen Xuan just sneered and kept wiping the oil, which made Ning Zhongze burst into tears. He couldn't beat him again and again, and couldn't explain clearly.
Chen Xuan's technique was so sophisticated that after a while, the tips of her ears turned red and her eyes became wandering.
Chen Xuan glanced at her and knew that it was almost time, so he carried her to the soft couch and planned to eat the main meal.
Unexpectedly, just as he was about to take action, Ning Zhongze glared at him and gritted his teeth.
"The surname is Chen! You and I just made an agreement, don't forget it!"
"...Don't worry, I won't forget it."
Chen Xuan hesitated for a moment, and for a rare moment he abided by the rules.
