Zhu Xian: Get ten times the talent, the sword opens the gate of heaven

One hundred li outside Luoyang City, on a mountain road.

Two figures, one old and one young, walked along the mountain path under the scorching sun.

Xiao Huan, dressed in an apricot-yellow long dress, walked along the mountain path, bending down to smell the wildflowers along the edge of the path.

She was slender and beautiful.

As she bent over, looking from behind, the skin exposed below her calves was fair and rosy, delicate and flawless.

Although she was only sixteen, her pert buttocks were extremely alluring.

Zhou Yixian walked behind, about ten meters away from Xiao Huan.

Holding the "Immortal's Guiding Hand" flag in one hand, he walked laboriously, shouting:
"Xiao Huan, can you slow down? Grandpa is old and his health isn't good. If you walk too fast, he'll be exhausted."

Xiao Huan turned to look at Zhou Yixian, smiled, and said:

"Grandpa, you're lying. When we were chased by seven wolves yesterday, you ran faster than me. You didn't look like you were in poor health at all."

Zhou Yixian was taken aback when she heard this. She hadn't expected that Xiao Huan had grown up and was no longer as easy to fool as she had been when she was a child.

As she grew older, Xiao Huan gradually discovered the extraordinary qualities of this old man.

Zhou Yixian shook his head, seemingly exhausted, and plopped down on a large rock beside the mountain path. He wiped the sweat from his face and said:
“Xiao Huan, last night I was chased by seven wild wolves. I was pushed to the limit, which stimulated my body and caused me to unleash an unusual speed.”

"Really?" Xiao Huan looked at Zhou Yixian and asked with some doubt.

"Really!" Zhou Yixian, meeting Xiao Huan's innocent eyes, lied without batting an eye, and continued:
"Ouch, my shoulders feel so sore and painful. I guess I'm really getting old."

Seeing this, Xiao Huan quickly came up behind Zhou Yixian with a worried expression and said:
"Grandpa, really, if you really feel old, we'll find a place to live and take care of you in your old age, so we don't have to travel around and live a life of hardship. Who knows, you might just pass away one day."

"Pah, nonsense! I'm perfectly fine, why would I die so soon?" Zhou Yixian raised his two white eyebrows and said:
“Xiao Huan, we don’t have a house, and we don’t have much money to buy one. Retirement requires both a house and money. I think we should forget about it and let Grandpa take you to travel the world.”

"Sigh!" Xiao Huan sighed, placing her hands on Zhou Yixian's shoulders and giving him a gentle yet powerful massage.

"Comfortable!"

A look of rapture appeared on Zhou Yixian's face as he praised:

"Xiao Huan, your massage technique is so much better than when you were a child. It feels so good."

Xiao Huan smiled upon hearing this and subconsciously replied:

"Grandpa, since you like it, Xiao Huan will keep pressing you until you die."

"Pah! How dare you speak like that? Are you cursing your grandfather to die?" Zhou Yixian said in a low voice, feigning a fierce expression.

Xiao Huan laughed happily when she saw Zhou Yixian's angry expression:

"Ha ha ha ha……"

"What are you laughing at, you seem so happy?"

Suddenly, a voice rang out beside Xiao Huan.

Upon hearing this familiar figure, Xiao Huan instantly pictured a tall man with a head of blood-red hair.

So, he immediately glanced to his side, and his expectant face instantly lit up with joy...

There, a tall figure stood beside him, dressed in a black robe, with long, blood-red hair casually draped in the air, and a handsome yet sinister face.

Upon seeing this woman, Xiao Huan immediately exclaimed with delight:
"Brother Xiaofan, what are you doing here?"

Zhang Xiaofan pointed to the sky with his left hand and said with a smile:

"I was flying in the sky when I suddenly spotted you two here, so I flew down." "Oh, right!" Zhang Xiaofan stretched out his hand from behind his back, pulling out a string of candied hawthorns, and said:
"Here, this is what I bought in Luoyang when I passed through the city. I bought it so that if I ran into you, I could give you a string of candied hawthorns."

Xiao Huan's bright eyes instantly cooled as she looked at the candied hawthorn in Zhang Xiaofan's hand, her gaze fixed on it with excitement. She first said to Zhang Xiaofan:
"Thank you, Brother Xiaofan. You are so kind to Xiaohuan. I don't know how I can ever repay you."

As she spoke, Xiao Huan hugged Zhang Xiaofan tightly, giving him a very tight embrace.

Zhang Xiaofan patted Xiao Huan on the back and said:
"Xiao Huan has really grown a lot; she's already at my chin level."

After Zhang Xiaofan became completely possessed by a demon once, he grew exceptionally tall.

Therefore, even though Xiao Huan is slender and tall for a woman, she only reaches Zhang Xiaofan's chin.

As Zhang Xiaofan spoke, his eyes suddenly widened in surprise.

Because he saw Zhou Yixian's eyes, which seemed to want to kill.

It seemed that Xiao Huan was holding him, and Zhou Yixian was indignant.

Zhou Yixian stared intently at Zhang Xiaofan, her eyes filled with anger as she watched her granddaughter Xiaohuan tightly hugging him.

He wished he could kick Zhang Xiaofan in the butt.

Suddenly, Zhou Yixian looked at Zhang Xiaofan with a startled expression, and exclaimed in horror:
"Five...five volumes of the Heavenly Book, you actually obtained all five volumes of the Heavenly Book?"

"Zhang Xiaofan, obtaining even one scroll of the Heavenly Book is already a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. But now, you've obtained five scrolls. Your luck is beyond divine!"

Zhang Xiaofan smiled upon hearing this and looked at Zhou Yixian, saying:

"Senior, you have truly discerning eyes. You could tell at first glance that I had cultivated five volumes of the Heavenly Book."

Upon hearing this, Zhou Yixian, unusually modest, said:
"I'm not particularly insightful; I just have a bit more knowledge. In terms of real strength, I'm afraid even I am no match for you now."

"You flatter me, senior!" Zhang Xiaofan said modestly.

Xiao Huan hugged Zhang Xiaofan, rested her head on his face, greedily inhaling the masculine scent emanating from his neck, and then said...
However, remembering that her grandfather was still nearby, Xiao Huan quickly turned her head away. At the same time, she stuck out her small, delicate tongue and licked the candied hawthorn in her hand a few times, then suddenly said:

"Brother Xiaofan, the candied hawthorn is so delicious. You are so good to Xiaohuan."

Zhang Xiaofan ruffled Xiao Huan's hair and said with a smile:

"nice! You love it."

"Shh!"

At this moment, a sound broke through the air.

Zhang Xiaofan looked over and saw a charming and graceful woman flying over.

Soon, the woman landed on the ground.

Upon seeing this, Xiao Huan immediately ran towards Jin Ping'er and bumped into her.

Xiao Huan released her grip on Jin Ping'er's hands. "Sister Jin," she said, "what brings you here?"

Jin Ping'er gently pinched Zhou Yixian's ear and said:
“I was just about to go sightseeing in Luoyang when I suddenly saw the three of you on the mountain path below. So, I flew down.”

Upon hearing that Jin Ping'er was going to Luoyang, Xiao Huan immediately exclaimed excitedly:

"Sister, we're also going to Luoyang. We're traveling the same way, so we can go together."

“Okay!” Jin Ping’er nodded in agreement, then looked at Zhang Xiaofan and said:
"Zhang Xiaofan, what are you doing here?"
