King

When he returned to the quiet courtyard at the foot of Jinghangzhai Mountain, Lin Yan immediately regained his composure.

Now he has reached the fifth level of the Sky Control Realm, and if he uses the star array formed by the two swords to fight, his real strength may even reach the seventh level of the Sky Control Realm. Taking care of yourself makes self-preservation a lot easier.

"Lin Shaoxia, where have you been all morning? No, I'm finally expecting you back. Come, come, eat quickly."

As soon as Lin Yan came back, Mother Liu warmly greeted Lin Yan to the table for dinner.

It was as if Lin Yan was really her son, Ye Xier's husband.

Lin Yan chuckled, glanced at Ye Xier, then sat down and began to eat with a bowl.

Lin Yan didn't know how Ye Xier felt about him, but Lin Yan knew Liu's mother's thoughts, and he didn't know what to do with Ye Xier. He did not deny that he had a good impression of Ye Xier, and he was quite Great affection, after all, Ye Xier has both a girlish face and a plump figure like a young woman. He is in his prime of life, and with Ye Xier being together every day, it is inevitable that he will have thoughts about men and women.

However, if he only bases his affection for Ye Xier on his desire for Ye Xier, he feels that he is too shameless, but he cannot love Ye Xier as he did when he faced Mei Jiangxue meaning!

What's more, he is still used to treating Ye Xier as a lonely woman who needs his protection, not a woman he loves.

That's why he felt a little distressed about this issue, and now he simply used the method of avoidance to cool down this issue.

Fortunately, Mother Liu saw that he was back, and whether he would leave in a while, so she didn't immediately make it clear, which made him feel a little relieved.

However, when Ye Xier faced him, she was even more shy.

A week passed quickly in such a life.

Lin Yan realized that without Zhang Dakuang and others threatening Ye Xier and Liu's mother, he and Ye Xier had fewer topics to talk about when they were alone.

However, the hazy love between the two is gradually deepening.

Lin Yan finally realized that it was actually not impossible to continue falling in love with someone, and this happened when all the conditions were met!

Yes, he still kept a place in his heart for Mei Jiangxue that no one could replace. He still loved Mei Jiangxue deeply, but at the same time, he discovered that he was also in love with Ye Xier, who was older than him. Nine-year-old young woman.

He did not deny that he was obsessed with Ye Xier's body. After all, Ye Xier exuded the aura of a mature young woman, and he was deeply infatuated with him. Ye Xier's plump young woman's body was very attractive to him, but he still It was discovered that he had indeed developed some affection for Ye Xier, a natural desire that a man wants to protect and possess his own woman.

He wanted to protect this woman.

"It's just, what should I say? Once I say that I love Ye Xier, it will definitely be unfair to Ye Xier, because I still love Mei Jiangxue."

Sitting on the threshold, looking at the sunset, Lin Yan thought so in his heart.

At this moment, Lin Yan hoped to explain this matter to Ye Xier frankly. After all, he had already regarded Ye Xier as his own woman in his heart, but Ye Xier was still a little shy and tried to avoid talking about this topic. She had no choice but to respect Ye Xier's wishes.

Another thing was also one of the reasons why Lin Yan couldn't talk about it.

Mother Liu's body became weaker and weaker.

Although the tuberculosis was cured by taking Bingying Xuelian before, the tuberculosis has tortured Liu Mu for many years, making Liu Mu's body not as good as the old people of the same age, and she began to age early.

Lin Yan and Ye Xi'er bought a lot of supplements, and Lin Yan even often massaged for Mother Liu to help her improve her resistance, but to no avail. Once Mother Liu began to age, she would no longer be able to resist the erosion of aging.

After 20 days, Liu's mother fell ill due to an occasional cold.

Half a month later, Lin Yan and Ye Xi'er were surrounded by Mother Liu's sick bed, and Ye Xi'er was already in tears.

Mother Liu was lying on the bed, her body was so thin that only wrinkled skin remained, together with the tiny skeleton. The fire of life was like soybean oil, which could be extinguished at any time.

Mother Liu's eyes were clouded a lot, but her thinking was still very clear.

She knew that she was not far from the deadline, but she was very calm.

"Xi'er, don't feel sorry for your mother-in-law. Everyone will have this day. With you by my mother-in-law's company, if she wants to leave, she will walk smoothly and with peace of mind."

Ye Xi'er tightly held Mother Liu's shriveled and cold hands, sobbing, unable to say anything.

"Silly boy."

Mother Liu smiled and looked at her satisfied daughter-in-law, her cloudy eyes were full of comfort.

"Xi'er, the most proud thing for mother-in-law in this life is to see my son marry Xi'er as his wife. Mother-in-law always remembers Xi'er's kindness in her heart. Now, mother-in-law wants to tell you sincerely, Xi'er, Thank you, mother-in-law, thank you for your contribution to the Liu family, thank you for taking care of mother-in-law, thank you."

After Liu's mother finished speaking, she coughed a few times, her face turned red, and her spirits turned out to be better.

But this is like a flashback.

"Mother-in-law, mother-in-law, stop talking, take a good rest, just rest for a while."

Ye Xier finally forcibly suppressed her sobs and said this.

Mother Liu took Ye Xi'er's hand, smiled, and said: "Xi'er, mother-in-law has dragged you down for eight years, and now she is going, so you can't just close your eyes and let Xi'er stay alone in this world, mother-in-law In fact, I have been worried about this all the time, but now my mother-in-law is not worried."

A smile appeared on the corner of Liu's withered mouth, she moved her head with some difficulty, and looked at Lin Yan.

"God is good to me, let me know Lin Shaoxia, I finally found a reliable man who can bring Xi'er a lifetime of happiness."

"Lin Shaoxia." Mother Liu called out.

Lin Yan squatted beside the bed.

"Lin Shaoxia, you are very young. Xi'er is nine years older than you. It seems that you two are not suitable, but you can take care of others. The old woman knows this. Lin Shaoxia, whether you still like other girls or not, but I can see Come out, you still have admiration for our Xi'er, and I will give Xi'er to you, the old woman can rest assured, because you will not treat Xi'er badly. Lin Shaoxia, I will give Xi'er to your care, are you willing?"

Even if Liu's mother didn't have the wish before she died, when this question was asked to him, Lin Yan would give an affirmative answer.

Therefore, Lin Yan nodded solemnly and said, "Don't worry, Mrs. Liu, I will take good care of Miss Ye."

Mother Liu put Lin Yan's and Ye Xi'er's hands together, and said comfortingly, "Okay, that's good. Xi'er, although you haven't made it clear, your mother-in-law can see your affection for Lin Shaoxia. Mother-in-law hopes that you will live a good life with Lin Shaoxia in the future, okay?"

With tears in her eyes, Ye Xier nodded silently.

"Lin Shaoxia, I will leave Xi'er to you."

Mother Liu smiled, and after saying the last sentence, she died suddenly.

Lin Yan and Ye Xi'er took care of Liu's mother's funeral. For this reason, Lin Yan specially invited Abbot Fazheng and Master Jingci to do a lively ceremony for Liu's mother.

Mother Liu was buried in the cemetery of the Liu family ancestors. Later, Ye Xier bought back the former mansion of the Liu family and fulfilled the wishes of Mother Liu and the deceased relatives of the Liu family.

A week after Liu's mother passed away, Ye Xi'er recovered from her grief.

Lin Yan did not break his promise, and devoted himself to taking care of Ye Xier for half a month, so that Ye Xier's life finally returned to normal.

During this period, Lin Yan took Ye Xier to Jinghangzhai and Dayin Temple more than once.

Lin Yan told Abbot Fazheng about Han Shangxing's killing of Kujie, and Abbot Fazheng did not blame him, but hoped that he would commit as few murders as possible in the future.

At the same time, Abbot Fazheng still did not forget another thing.

Abbot Fazheng still hoped that Lin Yan would find an opportunity to get in touch with Lin Xiuping during his stay in Tiandi City. In Fazheng's own words, he believed that he would not misunderstand the person. Through his contacts with Lin Xiuping in the past few years, he thought Lin Xiuping must have had some difficulties, that's why Lin Yan misunderstood.

Lin Yan resolutely rejected Abbot Fazheng's proposal twice at first.

It's not that he intends to oppose Abbot Fazheng, but in his eyes, Lin Xiuping is no longer his father.

But Fazheng persuaded him twice again.

By the last time, his firm heart finally began to loosen.

Although he still doesn't recognize Lin Xiuping in his heart, blood is thicker than water after all, and the glimmer of hope that rises in his heart makes him hope that after seeing Lin Xiuping, he can get a different truth from before.

Abbot Fazheng promised to find a way for Lin Yan to let Lin Yan meet Lin Xiuping.

Lin Yan agreed.

After all, it is simply impossible to sneak into the Lin family mansion and meet Lin Xiuping secretly in the deep courtyard of the mansion, because no clansmen have entered the Snow Fantasy Plateau in large numbers to find the treasures left by the guardians of the martial arts, and the entire Lin family has returned to its former strictness. With his level of vigilance, and with his strength at the fifth level of the Royal Air Realm, he really couldn't find a chance to sneak in.

But Abbot Fazheng wanted to invite Lin Xiuping to the Dayin Temple, and it was not an easy thing to do.

Because counting, Lin Xiuping has not been to Dayin Temple for almost 14 years.

So in the end, Abbot Fazheng changed his way of thinking and gave up the idea of ​​letting Lin Yan meet Lin Xiuping and his son directly. Instead, he began to think about how to enter the Lin family by himself. the truth of the matter.

For this reason, in order to make Lin Xiuping believe in him when he saw him, Abbot Fazheng specially asked Lin Yan for an item that could identify him.

Lin Yan took out a small silver sword.

Thirteen years ago, on the official road leading to Xiaoshui City, Steward Xin fought hard against the last dozen cold-blooded knights who came after him. After one of the cold-blooded knights was injured and fell to the ground by Steward Xin, Lin Yan used this small silver sword to fight against the cold-blooded knights. The knight stabbed countless blood holes in his stomach and killed the man.

This was Lin Yan's first time killing people, and this small silver sword was kept by Lin Yan, who was only seven years old at that time.

When Lin Xiuping saw the silver sword, he would definitely recognize it, because it was a birthday present he gave Lin Yan!
