Chapter 103 Honesty
Ximen Xiao's eyes were kind, his face was filled with joy, and his beard was trembling at the understanding of his beloved daughter.
Ximen Xiangmatai: "Oh, father, don't keep showing that look, people can't stand it."
Ximen Xiao gave a long laugh, picked up the teapot and poured tea: "Master Shu, as soon as Xiang'er came here today, he fell in love with Luo Shenju, and is planning to cultivate here for many years after advancing to the Gangli realm."
"Oh?" Gu Xuan's expression changed and he couldn't help but look at Ximen Xiang.
Ximen Xiang said: "With my spiritual root potential, I am lucky to be able to advance to the Gangli realm. As for the middle stage of the Gangli realm, I don't dare to hope too much."
Ximen Xiao put down the teapot and sighed softly: "I have inquired in many ways and it is difficult for Xiang'er to advance to the Gangli realm, at least three Spirit Summoning Pills."
Gu Xuan's eyes flashed slightly: "After the grand ceremony, I will come up with a solution."
Ximen Xiao was grateful: "The fact that Xiang'er is as cheerful as he is today is inseparable from Master Shu. My uncle would also like to thank me here. If there is a destiny in the future, I will not hesitate even if my heart is broken."
Gu Xuan said seriously: "Uncle Xiao's words are serious."
Ximen Xiang didn't answer, his head hung slightly, and he drank tea silently. Sometimes he frowned, wondering what he was thinking.
Gu Xuan changed the subject: "I wonder what the village owner's purpose is in setting up a branch of the Luoshui Sect?"
"I just don't want to waste resources." Ximen Xiao smiled bitterly, "The owner of the village sent all the collateral warriors with poor qualifications and idleness to this place to be responsible for the water transportation industry. It is not easy for me as the new leader."
Gu Xuan chuckled: "Uncle Xiao is in his prime, at the peak of his spring and Autumn period, so he should be full of ambition and show off his talents."
Ximen Xiao laughed: "I heard this, and I accept your good advice."
Gu Xuan took a sip of tea: "The role of protector of Four Seasons Castle?"
Ximen Xiao picked up the teapot and poured tea for Gu Xuan: "I have left the Four Seasons Castle, but the friendship from the past is still there. This old face is still a bit thin in the Kuzhou Wulin."
Gu Xuan looked at Ximen Xiang: "The boat will be straight when it reaches the bridge. Sister Xiang, don't think too much. It's time for me to leave."
Ximen Xiao quickly persuaded him to stay: "I was just thinking of ordering someone to cook. It's a rare time for us to get together, so we just need to get drunk before resting."
Ximen Xiang asked in surprise: "My book brother hasn't even warmed up his butt yet, why are you in such a hurry?"
Gu Xuan Zhengse explained: "I have been away from the village for a few months, and someone is bound to make some tricks. I will set off at this time and return to the village late at night, so I can take a look in secret."
Ximen Xiao's eyes flashed, and then he cupped his hands and said: "The mountains are high and the rivers are long, and the rivers and lakes are far away. Master Shu will have some free time in the future, so I hope to come and sit here often."
Gu Xuan handed over his hand: "Uncle Xiao, see you later. Sister Xiang, the world is dangerous and people's hearts are unpredictable. Please be more careful during the journey of experience."
…
The crane is flying slowly, the dense forest on the ground is rolling, and the setting sun on the distant mountains is as hot as fire.
Gu Xuan stared at the setting sun: "A monk is like the scorching sun, even a ray of afterglow can be so dazzling."
Wang Mang chuckled: "Only secular scholars can lament the spring and autumn. You are so young, so how can you express so much emotion?"
Somewhere in the towering dense forest, the evening crows returned to their nests and the birds chirped.
Su Fei, dressed in purple with long sleeves, was sitting cross-legged on the rock alone. She seemed to be regulating her breath and recuperating, but her eyes seemed to be closed.
Suddenly, a hidden arm shot like lightning, hitting several large acupoints on Sophie's body.
Being attacked suddenly, Sophie's beautiful eyes widened and her whole body twisted, but she couldn't move, and her beauty turned pale.
On the originally empty rock, a white light flashed, and a young man in brocade clothes suddenly appeared, it was Ximenjie.
When Sophie saw Ximenjie, although she could not speak, her eyes became panicked and a little sad.
Ximenjie stared at Sophie closely, with a somewhat wretched look on his face, and took out a pink pill in front of her.
"Sophie, I really like you. If you didn't flirt with me over and over again, I wouldn't want to do this."
While speaking, Ximenjie pinched Sophie's lips apart and stuffed the elixir into her throat.
Sophie was restrained all over, as if thinking of her own fate, tears of humiliation burst out from her eyes of hatred.
Ximenjie had a wicked smile on his face: "Now that the pear blossoms are raining, I won't be able to stop after a while. This is an aphrodisiac. I spent a lot of money to buy one. Naturally, I want to enjoy it."
As the elixir's power evaporated, Sophie's eyes gradually blurred, her face turned as red as a peach, and her whole body felt unbearably hot.
"I have been dreaming about the many bed patterns recorded in the book for a long time, and I secretly swallow my saliva every time. Today, under the cover of the sky and the earth, I just want to try them out one by one."
Ximenjie's eyes were blazing, and when he saw that the heat was coming, he stretched out his two fingers and opened Sophie's acupuncture points by counting.
Sophie was exhausted and fell limply, as if she was drunk, fighting for her last ounce of reason and waving her sleeves.
A small green snake hidden in the big sleeve suddenly shot out and bit Ximenjie's neck.
Ximenjie thought he had a winner, and all he wanted to do was make love with Su Fei, and he didn't have any precautions at all.
The small green snake was only two feet long, but it was highly venomous. It bit Ximenjie's neck with one bite, and the toxin seeped into Ximenjie's body and quickly spread throughout his body.
"ah!"
Ximenjie screamed in surprise, grabbed the small green snake with one hand, and tried to pull it away, but found that he couldn't use any strength.
"Ah! Damn it!"
Ximenjie's face was filled with fear, he roared loudly, and with great luck, he finally shattered the little green snake.
As the poison expanded, Ximenjie's whole body turned blue, and bloodshot eyes overflowed from the corners of his mouth. He fell onto the rock, trembled only a few times, and died.
The spirit crane happened to fly over the dense forest, and Gu Xuan heard Ximenjie's two screams clearly.
"Xiao Qing, stay here for now. The voice sounds a bit familiar. I'll go take a look."
Gu Xuan stood up from the crane's back, swayed his body, teleported into the air, and swayed again, teleporting into the tree crown.
As the scene on the rock came into view, Gu Xuan immediately made a rough guess about what happened.
Wang Mang said: "This woman has obviously used aphrodisiac pills. If no one uses the pill's power, she will despise her body until her Yin Yuan is exhausted and her fragrance disappears."
Seeing Su Fei touching his body repeatedly and about to tear off his clothes, Gu Xuan asked: "If I break the boy's body, will it have any impact on my subsequent cultivation?"
Wang Mang chuckled: "That doesn't matter. This woman's spiritual roots seem to be the same as yours, but she is suitable for dual cultivation."
"Xiao Qing, be on guard in the air, don't look down, senior... oh, forget it..."
After Gu Xuan hurriedly finished his explanation, he stretched out his body, jumped onto the rock, and kicked Ximenjie's body away.
…
As night falls, the bright moon hangs high, and the crane is still hovering in the sky.
In the dense forest, Sophie sat on a rock, her knees arched, her arms folded, her head lowered, her eyes dull, her hair disheveled, but fortunately her clothes were intact.
Gu Xuan sat aside and glanced at Su Fei from time to time, his expression a little complicated.
Since practicing Taoism, Gu Xuan has met many female Taoist seedlings, but only Di Hong left a mark on his heart.
I never expected that my first skin-to-skin contact with Sophie, even though it was excusable, turned out to be...
fact.
Ximenjie's corpse and the green snake broken into two parts showed that the experience just now was by no means a dream.
After a long silence, Gu Xuan gritted his teeth and said softly: "Sophie..."
Su Fei raised her head and looked at Gu Xuan, her eyes weak and helpless: "Don't mention this matter again, let me lean on you."
Gu Xuan sighed secretly, suddenly feeling pity, he quickly stretched out his arms and gently took Su Fei into his arms.
Su Fei leaned on Gu Xuan's shoulder and murmured: "I'm too tired to deal with Ximenjie these days, let me take a nap..."
As soon as he finished speaking, Su Fei breathed evenly and fell into a deep sleep, but her hands tightly held Gu Xuan's clothes, as if she was afraid that he would suddenly disappear from the world.
Gu Xuan didn't make a sound and kept holding Su Fei in his arms. The two of them were like stone sculptures, motionless under the moonlight.
…
After sleeping for a full six hours, Su Fei woke up faintly, stirred all over, and found himself lying in Gu Xuan's arms.
Gu Xuan stroked Sophie's hair and said softly: "Wake up."
Su Fei only hummed slightly, still leaning on Gu Xuan, with no intention of getting up.
Gu Xuandao: "The dignified Dao Miao was killed. Ximen Villa will not turn a blind eye. It will investigate to the end and tell what happened. I will deal with the aftermath."
Su Fei said slowly: "I was constantly pestered by Ximen Jie at Ximen Villa. I was so upset that I couldn't practice quietly at all. I wanted to use my experience to lure the snake out of the hole and kill Ximen Jie, but this guy was already prepared and used some kind of
You used stealth to restrain me first, but luckily you showed up in time."
Gu Xuan moved his body: "I have been to Luoshui Sect and met Sister Xiang. I wanted to return to the village overnight."
"That's it." Sophie paused for a moment, "Tell me a secret."
Gu Xuan nodded: "You tell me, I've always been tight-lipped."
Su Fei said eloquently: "In terms of bloodline, my surname should be Ximen, not Su. My ancestor is Ximen, the second brother of the current ancestor Ximen."
Gu Xuan narrowed his eyes slightly, but was not surprised: "I would like to hear the details."
Su Fei took off Gu Xuan's arm, sat upright, and asked doubtfully: "Why are you so calm?"
Gu Xuan chuckled: "Your words remind me of something."
"Sister Xiang said that you have a sharp mind, and it's true." Su Fei continued, "For some reason, the ancestors of the family were killed by Ximen Chi, and only one person survived and hid in Sujia Village. In the end, he escaped and survived."
Gu Xuan answered: "The man had no choice but to change his surname to Su, but he left behind the ancestral teachings and did not forget the blood feud."
Su Fei nodded: "That's probably the case. It just lasted for hundreds of years. The descendants of the next generation have no spiritual roots and have no hope of revenge. I only learned about my bloodline after testing the spiritual roots."
Gu Xuan asked: "You are lurking in the Ximen Family. How do you want to take revenge?"
Su Fei said loudly: "Act according to the opportunity and destroy the Ximen family!"
Gu Xuan smiled: "You are very ambitious. When we were trying to kill animals at the Ximen Hunting Ground, you were the one who kicked Wu Gang while masked in an attempt to sow discord."
"Exactly." Su Fei straightened her delicate body and stared at Gu Xuan, "As a disciple of Ximen, now that you know my true identity, you can kill or behead me as you please. I will have no complaints."
Gu Xuan still smiled: "Why do I want to kill you? In exchange for courtesy, I will also tell you a secret. My real name is Gu Xuan, not Ximen Shu."
Hearing this, Su Fei couldn't help but be stunned: "You...you..."
