People in Doupo: The beginning of the game intercepts the rich woman Xun'er
Chapter 476 Drunk Chu Wanqing
This sudden sound instantly interrupted the conversation between Xiao Ling and Xun'er, and their eyes turned to the source of the sound at the same time.
As the void rippled slightly, an old man appeared in their sight. He was wearing a simple gray robe, and his white hair was like fresh snow, casually tied behind his head.
His face was thin and his eyes were as deep as the abyss, seeming to contain infinite wisdom and the accumulation of years.
The old man's posture is upright, like an ancient pine tree that stands proudly all year round. Although he is very old, he does not show any signs of senility.
His every movement revealed a detached temperament. His slightly raised chin inadvertently revealed a hint of pride and majesty that made people involuntarily feel awe.
Seeing the old man appear, Xiao Ling instinctively released his soul perception, trying to explore the other party's depth.
He quickly sensed that the old man contained a fighting spirit as vast as the abyss of the sea, its mightiness was frightening.
With just a slight perception, Xiao Ling was able to deduce the old man's approximate level of cultivation.
This person is undoubtedly a strong man at the semi-saint level, and he is also an extremely powerful person among the semi-saints. His strength is not inferior to Chu Wanqing who had not yet recovered from her injuries in Xiao Ling's memory.
If nothing unexpected happened, this old man should be a high-level semi-saint. In the ancient clan, his status is second only to those ancient clan elders at the Dousheng level.
“It turned out to be Elder Tong Xuan.”
As soon as Xun'er recognized the old man's face, she immediately recognized his identity and greeted him softly with a hint of casualness in her tone.
"I've met senior."
Xiao Ling had already clasped his fists lightly towards the old man, bowed slightly, and spoke in a respectful tone.
"Miss." Elder Tongxuan first nodded slightly to Xun'er, which was his polite greeting.
Then, he slowly shifted his gaze to Xiao Ling who was standing beside him, and the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a faint and kind smile: "Young man, I have heard about your deeds many times in the clan. Today, I finally got what I wanted and can see your style with my own eyes."
"Just judging by your appearance, you are indeed a young man with outstanding temperament. Even when I was in my prime, I was inevitably inferior to you. Moreover, your cultivation is also impressive. You have reached the realm of five-star Dou Zun at such a young age. In my clan, I am afraid that only Miss can have a slight advantage at the same age."
"Also, I heard that you have refined an eighth-grade nine-color elixir and won the championship at this elixir conference. This achievement can indeed be called a promising young man..."
Elder Tongxuan exclaimed in admiration as he spoke. His eyes scanned Xiao Ling's body, as if he wanted to see through the surface and delve into the inner qualities of this young man.
"Haha, senior, you are too kind." Xiao Ling smiled lightly, revealing an unintentional humility in his words, "If it weren't for my own unremitting efforts, how could I dare to say that I am worthy of Xun'er?"
As he spoke, the corners of Xiao Ling's mouth rose slightly, and his eyes flashed with confidence, yet still gentleness.
He turned his head slightly and his eyes fell on Xun'er beside him. His eyes were filled with deep affection and endless attachment.
When Xun'er heard Xiao Ling's words, a faint blush appeared on her cheeks, like peach blossoms blooming in spring.
There was a gleam of happiness in her eyes, and that joy was as bright as the stars, lighting up her whole world.
Witnessing the tender affection between the young couple, Elder Tongxuan could not help but chuckle softly, feeling deeply moved.
The emotional exchanges among these young generations are so pure and beautiful, as if they can purify people's hearts and make people recall the long-gone youthful years.
A trace of nostalgia flashed in his eyes, but then a hint of regret came into his eyes. After all, he had passed the age full of passion and dreams, and the romance and impulse of his youth could only become a warm memory deep in his heart.
"Since you, a young man, have such a profound awareness, then please work harder in the future. I have high hopes for you."
Elder Tongxuan smiled and shook his head gently, his tone revealing a kind of gentleness and expectation.
"I'm looking forward to that day, the day when you grow up enough to stay by my side. By then, we can be considered a family."
Facing Elder Tongxuan's admonition, Xiao Ling just nodded lightly without saying anything more. He had already told Xun'er about his promise, so there was no need to mention it again.
As for the expectations of the elders in the Xun'er clan, Xiao Ling knew clearly that he would respond with practical efforts and achievements rather than just empty verbal promises.
In his opinion, actions are the most powerful proof, and verbal promises often appear powerless and pale in the face of the brilliance of actions.
Seeing Xiao Ling's determination and silence, Elder Tongxuan chuckled and nodded approvingly.
Then, he slowly turned his gaze to Xun'er, his eyes revealing a gentle concern, and he said in a calm tone: "Miss, it's time to return to the clan."
Xun'er felt reluctant when she heard this, but she remained calm and nodded gently. She slowly let go of Xiao Ling's hand and walked lightly to the side of Elder Tongxuan.
At this time, night has quietly fallen, and the silver moonlight sprinkled like water, covering this place where they were about to part with a layer of soft glow.
Xun'er and Xiao Ling looked at each other under the moonlight, and in each other's eyes, they could see each other's figure.
Elder Tongxuan waved his hand lightly, and ripples appeared in the air, as if plucking the strings of a harp in the void.
In a flash, a space door appeared silently behind the two of them, like a mysterious portal leading to another world.
Elder Tongxuan knew very well that these two young people in love must have many private words to talk about at this moment of separation.
As an old man, it would be inconvenient for him to disturb others too much, so as not to become the uninvited "light bulb".
So, he took a step ahead and stepped into the space channel, leaving Xiao Ling and Xun'er with some final time to communicate.
"Xun'er, be careful on the road, and take good care of yourself in the clan." Xiao Ling's voice rose gently, with a hint of reluctance. He smiled, his eyes full of concern,
"Don't forget to use the methods I taught you to cultivate the Fire Tribulation Fruit. The Flame Princess in the fruit is on the verge of hatching, and I believe that a new Flame Princess will be born soon. When that day comes, let this little one take my place and stay by your side."
The birth of Yan Ji originated from the catastrophe fire of heaven and earth caused by the ancient Star Language Tree on the Burning Plain. In other words, it was bathed in sufficient fire energy.
In comparison, the power of the strange fire mastered by Xiao Ling and Xun'er is no less inferior to the calamity fire of heaven and earth. In some aspects, the quality and quantity they demonstrate even surpass the calamity fire of heaven and earth.
Xiao Ling had tried before, using the strange fire in his body to nourish the Fire Tribulation Fruit, and practice has proved that this method is indeed effective. The only drawback may be that this process is relatively time-consuming.
Since Xiao Ling's strange fire is capable of this task, then the powerful Golden Emperor Burning Heaven Flame in Xun'er's body naturally has the same ability. This speculation is reasonable and there is no doubt about it.
Moreover, the ancient clan possesses the complete Golden Earth Burning Sky Flame, which ranks fourth on the list of strange fires. If it is used to nourish this Fire Tribulation Fruit, the hatched Flame Princess may have unexpected effects.
What's more, what the ancient clan possessed was the complete Golden Emperor Burning Sky Flame, which was ranked fourth on the Strange Fire List. Even if Xiao Ling later swallowed the Three Thousand Flames, his own quality could not be compared with the complete Golden Emperor Burning Sky Flame.
If the Golden Emperor's Burning Sky Flame is used to nurture this Fire Tribulation Fruit, it is unpredictable that the Flame Princess that is hatched may have effects beyond imagination.
"Brother Xiao Ling, Xun'er understands." Xun'er responded softly, with a gentle smile on her lips. The evening breeze blew gently, lifting a few strands of soft hair in front of her forehead, swaying gently in the wind.
"I will take good care of myself, Brother Xiao Ling, you should take care of yourself too, and don't forget to miss Xun'er occasionally." "Don't worry, I will." Xiao Ling smiled softly and waved his hand casually, revealing a bit of ease and carefreeness in his tone, "Okay, go quickly, don't let Elder Tongxuan wait too long."
Xun'er nodded slightly and said nothing more.
She walked slowly forward and hugged Xiao Ling tightly again. It was a moment full of emotion, as if they wanted to engrave each other's warmth and memories in their hearts.
Then, she slowly loosened her arms, turned around and stepped into the space passage.
As Xun'er stepped into the space channel step by step, her figure seemed to be swallowed by the night, gradually becoming blurred until it was completely integrated into the halo.
The space door also began to slowly dissipate, as if it had never existed.
"Brother Xiao Ling, the next time we meet will be Xun'er's coming-of-age ceremony, you must not be absent..." Xun'er's voice floated out from the space door that was about to close, like a wisp of reluctant breeze, and drilled into Xiao Ling's ears. "Xun'er will be waiting for you, and look forward to you shining on that day..."
Xiao Ling smiled calmly, his eyes still fixed on the space passage that had completely disappeared. It seemed that in that void, he could still clearly outline Xun'er's outline. He murmured in a low voice, his tone full of confidence and determination.
"Don't worry, Xun'er. I don't care about the competitors in your clan. When the time comes, I will definitely defeat them one by one and suppress them all."
"Tsk tsk, all suppressed, what a big tone." Suddenly, in the void beside, a woman's laughter floated softly. The sound was ethereal and pleasant, like the gurgling of a clear spring in the mountains, slowly reaching Xiao Ling's ears.
"You are really arrogant. You dare to say that you will defeat your peers from the ancient races one by one. Your courage is even more amazing. You can actually form a relationship with a woman from the ancient race."
"Looking at this situation, the little girl must have an important status in the clan. Even the semi-saint-level strong man respectfully calls her Miss. I'm really curious about how you got so lucky to be involved with such a person."
Xiao Ling's gaze quickly moved towards the source of the sound, and saw a slight ripple in the void, like tiny ripples on the water caused by the wind.
Then, a graceful figure in a white dress slowly walked out from the waves. She stood on the nearby roof with an elegant posture, gazing at him with a smile.
In this quiet night, her appearance is like a fairy in the moonlight, mysterious and charming.
There is naturally no other woman in Shengdan City except Chu Wanqing who could conceal her figure so quietly, not being discovered even under the nose of Elder Tongxuan, who was at the advanced semi-saint level, and who could make such remarks so leisurely and contentedly.
"Haha, I don't dare to trouble a master like you to take care of such a small matter of mine." Xiao Ling laughed softly, with a hint of nonchalance in his tone.
Xiao Ling was not surprised by Chu Wanqing's knowledge of the ancient races. Although the ancient races have always maintained a mysterious and secretive lifestyle and rarely appear on the mainland, their existence has almost become a legend and is little known.
However, in Zhongzhou, once one has the corresponding status and strength, it is no longer a rare thing to be able to learn about some news of ancient races.
As Chu Wanqing is the supreme elder of Yin Valley and also a powerful saint, it is no surprise that she knows something about these secret matters.
Xiao Ling paused for a moment, then changed the subject slightly with a hint of teasing in his tone, "However, I am a little surprised that you are still quietly observing me here at this late hour. Could it be that you are so curious about my every move that you have developed the habit of spying on me in the dead of night?"
"What nonsense are you talking about? I'm not the kind of person who would casually pry into other people's privacy." Chu Wanqing immediately responded to Xiao Ling's teasing, her tone revealing an unquestionable determination.
"You should be careful with your words and don't slander others' reputation easily, otherwise, I will not show mercy."
As a powerful Dou Sheng, how could she do something as beneath her status as peeping casually?
It was just by chance that she sensed the aura fluctuations of a semi-saint level here. In addition, she had noticed that Xiao Ling was also here before, so she decided to come over and check it out to make sure that no accidents would happen.
As for the previous conversations, she only heard some fragments by chance. It was purely an accident and she definitely did not intentionally eavesdrop.
Even though she has made a breakthrough and reached the realm of Fighting Saint, she doesn't dare to come into contact with those ancient races easily.
When faced with things related to ancient races, she always kept a distance to avoid being involved in unnecessary trouble.
Seeing Chu Wanqing's serious expression, Xiao Ling smiled lightly and put away his previous joking attitude.
He turned his head and his gaze passed through the night and fell on the bright moon in the sky.
The evening breeze blows gently, and the moonlight is like water, sprinkling on the quiet earth, creating a tranquil and peaceful atmosphere.
Xiao Ling took a deep breath, as if he was infected by the night, and looked at Chu Wanqing with burning eyes, and said leisurely: "Tonight is a good time, the moon is high, and the sky is clear. Why don't we take advantage of this beautiful scene to drink good wine together and watch the moonlight, isn't it beautiful?"
Chu Wanqing stared at Xiao Ling's expectant eyes, and naturally understood his intention.
Although she did not fully understand the emotional entanglements of romance, she was not unworldly.
At that moment, her intuition told her that she should refuse, but when the words came to her lips, she paused unexpectedly.
Under the moonlight, a subtle change flashed across Chu Wanqing's face. The corners of her lips slightly lifted up, as if she was touched by the night and Xiao Ling's proposal. Subconsciously, she whispered, "Okay, then I'll accompany you reluctantly..."
Although her voice was low, it revealed a hint of tenderness that she herself was not aware of.
Seeing Chu Wanqing's response, Xiao Ling raised his lips slightly, and a gentle smile appeared on his face. He slowly walked to Chu Wanqing's side and gently held her slender and soft jade hand.
Chu Wanqing felt the warmth of Xiao Ling's palm and symbolically exerted a little force, as if trying to get rid of this sudden closeness, but her struggle seemed a little weak and she failed to break free. After a moment, she gave up resisting and let Xiao Ling hold her hand.
Xiao Ling did not hesitate for long. Holding Chu Wanqing's hand, they went to the most prosperous tavern in Shengdan City together.
He booked the most luxurious private room on the top floor without hesitation, and then led Chu Wanqing into the room with soft lighting and exquisite decoration.
Of course, in order to avoid being seen, Xiao Ling cleverly used some small tricks to conceal his true appearance.
After all, he had just won the title of champion in the Alchemy Conference today. In Saint Alchemy City, almost anyone could recognize his face immediately.
If this caused an unnecessary disturbance, the tranquility and elegance of tonight would probably be broken. On this night, he hoped to enjoy the quiet time with Chu Wanqing.
After pushing the door open, Xiao Ling led Chu Wanqing into the tavern's private room. The room was already filled with a variety of fine wines, and the aroma of wine filled the air, so they didn't need to prepare it themselves.
The lighting in the box was soft, reflecting the faint smiles on the two people's faces, and the atmosphere suddenly became warm.
Xiao Ling first filled two glasses of wine and handed one to Chu Wanqing.
They raised their glasses to each other, but none of them used their fighting spirit to dispel the alcohol in their bodies. Instead, they let the mellow wine spread on their tongues, with a rich taste and endless aftertaste.
After three rounds of drinks, both of them were a little tipsy, their cheeks flushed lightly, and their eyes became blurred.
They drank and chatted, and the topics ranged from ways of cultivation to folk rumors.
Xiao Ling's laughter and Chu Wanqing's whispers intertwined, and the atmosphere in the box gradually became ambiguous.
In the haze of alcohol, their eyes met frequently unconsciously, and every glance seemed to contain thousands of words, but no one spoke easily. (End of this chapter)
