Chapter 407: Speaking out of integrity
Chapter 407: Speaking out of integrity
It seems like they are confronting each other, but in fact they care about each other. ——Inscription
Su Xiu saw Lin Feng here and said to him with some disdain, "Humph, you just despise me! You can even keep his people, so why can't I stay?"
"You are of noble status, but you have condescended to come to me today. I am afraid that people will stab me in the back in this sect from now on!" Fan Nuoxi simply pretended to be a cultivator, wiped the corners of his eyes with his hand, and his tone sounded very aggrieved.
Su Xiu frowned when he heard this. "Girl, how can you talk nonsense when we haven't seen each other for so long?"
There was something wrong with the way this little girl sang to him today!
"But you can't just focus on taking her as your apprentice and ignore our current situation." Ruochen said at the right time.
"You kid, you're everywhere!" Su Xiu glanced at Ruochen.
If you want him to leave his beloved disciple, you’re dreaming!
After taking a look around, Su Xiu finally understood the good intentions of his beloved disciple.
There are some unclean things on Cuiyun Peak, and his beloved disciple brought those bad boys in. No wonder she did this. She must want to do it for others to see.
It seems that if he wants his beloved disciple to follow him obediently, he will have to put in some effort.
"Well, since you are fine, just stay here for now, but remember to cook some delicious food for me!" Su Xiu sighed lightly, which was considered a compromise.
"But you are not allowed to run away with me!"
Afraid that Fan Nuoxi might have other thoughts again, Su Xiu said something suggestive.
"Thank you for your guidance, old man. I will keep it in mind." Fan Nuoxi smiled and said harshly.
Upon hearing this, Su Xiu snorted and then left in a huff.
Let him find out the situation first, and then come back to talk to his beloved disciple!
Su Xiu came and left quickly, which surprised Meng Yujie and the others.
Fan Nuoxi just shrugged helplessly and went into the house.
After returning to the house and setting up the barrier, Fan Nuoxi slumped down on the recliner, "It looks like there will be more trouble in the days ahead!"
"Sister Cui, I always feel like I've seen that old man somewhere, but I can't remember where. How about you recall it for me?" Meng Yujie squatted in front of Fan Nuoxi and asked.
"Do you remember the person I asked you to investigate? He is the old man!" Fan Nuoxi said casually.
"No wonder..." Meng Yujie murmured, "Then, with him here, wouldn't it be easy to find Xing Yun?"
Ruochen became interested when he heard this, "Are you two playing a guessing game with us? Tell me what's going on between you and that old man!"
"This old man doesn't look simple, but he treats you very differently." Bai Zhou always felt that something had happened between Fan Nuoxi and Su Xiu, but he couldn't guess.
At this time, Dongfang Junyan and others appeared quietly.
"That old man seems to be determined to have you as his apprentice. Why aren't you happy about it?" Mu Bai asked puzzled.
"It seems that the old man has discovered that we are here a long time ago, but he didn't expose it. It's quite interesting!" Pei Lin saw that Fan Nuoxi was not interested, so he expressed his opinion.
"He once chased me and asked me to be his apprentice, but I refused!" Seeing that they were all so interested, Fan Nuoxi brought it up and said a few words, "He also wanted me to inherit his legacy, but I couldn't agree to it!"
"But he was quite persistent and gave me some pointers, so he must have done me a favor. I thought I had gotten rid of him, but I never expected that he turned out to be such a person..."
"If you don't want to, just ignore him in the future." Dongfang Junyan saw that Fan Nuoxi was a little conflicted and said softly.
"Some things cannot be completely rejected just because you don't want to..." Fan Nuoxi slowly sat up and looked at Dongfang Junyan with a look of grievance.
For no reason, Dongfang Junyan felt distressed and slowly walked towards her.
Could it be that there is a huge hidden secret behind this?
Is it related to Na Nuoxi? Or... something else?
Fan Nuoxi hugged Dongfang Junyan and said softly, "Brother Yan, I suddenly miss home."
When Meng Yujie and Chongli heard this, they knew that the old man who appeared today would definitely cause trouble for Fan Nuoxi.
What could be the reason?
When others heard this, they also felt distressed.
The home she was talking about probably didn't include their home...
For a moment, the atmosphere in the room became a little depressing.
You Ning took Xiao Cai and slowly walked to Fan Nuoxi, saying softly, "Sir, no matter what happens, we will firmly choose you!"
"That's right, Xiao Cai doesn't like Kiss Master like this! Kiss Master looks so beautiful when he smiles!" Xiao Cai echoed.
"You two little brats!" Fan Nuoxi felt a little warm in her heart when she heard them say that.
Qing Ran actually jumped out and said pointedly, "You are not even a fraction of my age, but you seem to have more worries than anyone else. If it's not your business, don't mind it!"
"Hmph, the master is so heartless. He has found a new love recently and has completely forgotten about us, the old ones!" Haoyu complained.
"Of course not. With Xu Nuan around, neither Hagi Zhuo nor I can stay with her now!" Tu Jie echoed.
"If you ask me, I have known my sister for a long time, but she never kept me by her side and hasn't paid any attention to me for a long time..." Feixia's eyes turned red with grievance.
"..."
With so many people making jokes, Fan Nuoxi's face suddenly turned red, and she no longer had time to think about her worries and troubles.
She...seems to have really ignored them...
Maybe, just like Tuanzi said, she sometimes took Nuoxi too seriously.
Sometimes, yes or no is really not that important; what is in front of you is what matters.
Tuanzi was very pleased in Fan Nuoxi's dantian.
I believe that with their help, my dear master will be able to get rid of the mental burden brought by Nuoxi as soon as possible!
"How about I treat everyone to a meal as a token of my apology?" Fan Nuoxi said with a blushing face.
"Then it's settled! I want to eat the spicy crayfish made by my sister!" Meng Yujie snapped her fingers.
"I want to eat the egg tarts my sister made!"
"I want to eat pickled fish!"
"..."
Knowing Fan Nuoxi's character, how could they really be at odds with her?
As long as she is happy, that is more important than anything else!
"Okay, okay, all up to you!"
Fan Nuoxi naturally agreed readily.
Soon, a symphony of pots and pans, conversations, and other sounds rang out in Zifeng's kitchen.
Just as the food was served, an "uninvited guest" quietly sat down at the table.
"This tastes good, it must be made by my precious disciple!" Su Xiu peeled the shrimp shell and sniffed it.
The happy expressions on Dongfang Junyan and others' faces suddenly dropped a bit.
Xiao Cai rushed over and said with a straight face, "This is made by my dear master, how can you eat it without permission?"
"You little girl, after I gave you to her, you forgot me so quickly?" Su Xiu was not annoyed. Instead, he wiped his fingers and reached out to touch Xiao Cai's cheek.
In just a moment, Xiao Cai's mind was filled with some strange yet familiar images. She looked at Su Xiu with a complicated look, "How could this be?"
Peilin rushed out and took Xiaocai into his arms, "How can an old man like you bully a little girl?"
"Hmph, you little brat, you're just talking nonsense!" Su Xiu pretended to be angry and said, "What are you guys standing there for? Sit down and eat!"
Seeing that Fan Nuoxi and the others did not move, Su Xiu waved his hand gently, and everyone sat down, and Fan Nuoxi naturally sat next to Su Xiu.
This picture is weird but kind of cute.
"Senior, isn't it not good for you to do this?" Fan Nuoxi pursed his lips.
Suddenly, she smelled some blood from Su Xiu and her eyes changed drastically.
"Are you hurt? Where?"
Fan Nuoxi pulled Su Xiu's wrist over.
"Alas, I really can't hide it from you. I just dealt with some small things casually. Don't worry, nothing will happen to me." Su Xiu felt warm in his heart and his tone couldn't help but soften.
"Liar!" Fan Nuoxi's eyes immediately turned red after taking the pulse. He waved his hand and took out a few Lisheng fruit and Musheng fruit. "You can eat if you want. Eat this first!"
When he went out before, he must have gone to deal with those mutated hunting pythons!
Although he tried his best to suppress the evil spirit floating in his body, she still noticed it.
And it seems that this thing has been in his body for a long time!
Really, the boss is already alone and doesn’t know how to take good care of himself!
