Fighting Soul Clan Demoness

Chapter 359 My Unrequited Love

"Xiao, Brother Xiao Yan."

Outside the house, Xun'er looked at the figure leaning against the old tree with a grass root in his mouth, and finally couldn't help but speak.

Hearing this, the young man under the shade of the tree moved.

The clay sculpture-like expression finally showed some spirit. Xiao Yan sighed and said:
"Nizi, this isn't the first time. Why do you always choose such radical methods before you even understand the full story?"

"Do you know that if Ruoruo hadn't intentionally given in, your past actions would only have made others more disgusted with you."

"Disgusted. Me?"

Xun'er bit her lips tightly, and for the first time, she felt like she was going to contradict him.
"Xun'er admits that she handled her affairs inappropriately, but putting that aside, in terms of etiquette and self-cultivation, Xun'er isn't necessarily inferior to her in any way!"

She is the daughter of an ancient clan.

Even if she loses her composure for a moment, she will never destroy the image she has created in the past!

The education and training she received since childhood enabled Xun'er to maintain sufficient courtesy and distance even when facing anyone, and she could easily get along with anyone. When she was in the outer courtyard, she was a well-known perfect woman.

Even though Xun'er didn't take these things seriously, it didn't stop her from keeping them in mind.

After all, when it comes down to it, girls all like to be praised by others. It is obviously unlikely that they really don't care at all, and she is no exception.

Seeing Xun'er's defiance, Xiao Yan did not feel surprised at all.

He shook his head slightly: "Etiquette and cultivation are not superficial things."

That's it again
Xun'er's eyes were dim, and she felt a great blockage in her heart.

No matter how much he gave or how wholeheartedly he treated Xiao Yan, he would now only shift his focus to that woman.

Is she really that much better than me?

"I'm not convinced."

Xun'er lowered her head and said sullenly.

Hearing this, Xiao Yan nodded, and did not choose to scold him immediately. Instead, he suddenly said something inexplicable.

"Brother asks you, do you still remember the instructor who taught you in the outer courtyard?"

Xun'er frowned: "Brother Xiao Yan, are you talking about Instructor Ruolin?"

"good."

Standing up from the shadow under the tree, Xiao Yan cast his gaze into the distance and said lightly:

"When I left Wutan City earlier, I remember telling you that I would only join you at Canaan College after I had fulfilled my three-year agreement with Nalan Yanran."

"But as far as I know, even before this year's external college selection competition, you had already begun to coax and persuade Instructor Ruolin, forcing her to fill an impossible spot at the critical moment of her promotion to senior instructor. Am I correct?"

"I"

Xun'er felt so wronged that even her eyes turned red.
"Brother Xiao Yan, Xun'er has gone to great lengths to build good relationships with the instructor, with Xiao Yu and the others, and even with An Ruoruo. Isn't it all for you?"

"Why, why are you blaming me now? Without Xun'er signing you up, would you have been able to enter the inner courtyard?!"

As if he hadn't anticipated Xun'er's extreme attitude, Xiao Yan immediately stepped forward, trying to calm the girl down, but all he got was a crisp sound.

"Snapped!"

"I don't want it! I'm not a child anymore. Now you want to use pats on the head to coax me. Why do you still say that to me?"

There was a rare bit of resentment in Xun'er's face, and she looked like an angry cat.

She kept wiping her face, and the dust that had previously stained it stuck to her delicate skin, leaving streaks and patterns on it, making her look extremely disheveled.

"."

Looking at the hand that was slapped away by the other party, Xiao Yan was not angry, but just sighed with a complicated feeling.

This girl's obsession is really too deep.

Even if it's just teaching and exhortation, in her eyes, it will probably all turn into misunderstanding and hostility, right?

Xiao Yan didn't really want to preach these great principles, because there were some things he couldn't even guarantee he would do, and being a teacher would easily lead to resentment from others.
But at least someone has to guide her onto the right path.

Xun'er's parents didn't care about this matter, so Xiao Yan took the responsibility.

"Nizi, you should know that I don't mean to blame you."

Having said that, Xiao Yan touched his nose and said to himself:

"After all, I was the one who did the worst, taking a long vacation and being late. So when I first came here, I was already prepared to re-register."

"But Brother Xiao Yan was late because of the three-year agreement."

"Well, there are indeed reasons for it, but no matter what, this shouldn't be a reason for me to influence others."

Xiao Yan spat out the grass roots, no longer showing his previous lazy and unruly look. He looked at the slightly confused girl in front of him with bright eyes.

"In the Douqi Continent, the strong are respected. Xun'er has great hidden strength and a strong background. There's nothing wrong with her wanting to control the people around her. After all, whoever has the bigger fist has the final say in this place. Even your actions are quite gentle enough." "But this desire for control shouldn't affect the people around you, right?"

The calm and gentle voice sounded like thunder in her ears, shocking Xun'er a little dazed.

She never expected that Xiao Yan's previous actions were actually just for his own sake.

Desire for control?
It was the first time Xun'er heard such an adjective.

Her talent and status had long made it difficult for her to distinguish between outsiders and friends, or rather, she had never considered these people as close to her.

Except Xiao Yan.

Whether it was Instructor Ruolin or Hu Jia Xiao Yu, they were all just tools for her to relieve her boredom and pave the way for Xiao Yan to have a good relationship. She used them and that was it. She never even considered how Instructor Ruolin would be promoted in the future.

Because she really doesn't care about other people's lives, and she doesn't have any friends worth mentioning.
It’s not that she can’t have it, but that she doesn’t want to have it. She doesn’t want it.

This is completely contrary to Hun Ruoruo's inner desire for friendship.

".sorry."

After being depressed for a long time, Xun'er finally knew Xiao Yan's intention and chose not to be angry anymore. Instead, she whispered:
"I will apologize to Teacher Ruolin."

"Haha, silly girl, I've already taken care of it for you."

Reaching out and touching Xun'er's head, Xiao Yan's eyes gradually softened and he chuckled:
"Don't worry, with the few bottles of elixirs I sent over, Instructor Ruolin's breakthrough to the Douling realm is just around the corner. By then, becoming a top-tier instructor will definitely not be a problem."

"No matter what, your brother is considered an influential figure in the Inner Court. He ranks third on the Strongest List and has some say in the Outer Court as well."

Seeing Xiao Yan's smug expression, Xun'er wanted to cry and laugh at the same time, but in the end she just lowered her head and hummed softly.

"Okay, it's getting late. Your sister Ruoruo is having a minor problem right now, and I can't explain the details. Once she recovers and agrees, I'll tell you in detail."

Waving his hands, Xiao Yan said something and turned to leave.
"Let's go, Nizi."

".Wait, Brother Xiao Yan!"

"Hmm? But what else?"

Seeing Xiao Yan turn around, Xun'er's hands trembled slightly, and she could hardly control her pounding heart.

"What's the relationship between you two?"

Xun'er asked this question exhaustedly, her body feeling a little limp, but she still kept her eyes fixed on Xiao Yan.

Quiet.

There was a long silence.

Time passed minute by minute, and finally, on the eve of dusk, Xiao Yan's lips moved, and then he exhaled heavily.

He seemed to be a little embarrassed to speak up. He pondered for a long time before saying helplessly:
"I have a one-sided love."

After saying this, Xun'er felt as if her heart was poured with cold water, feeling both bitter and relieved.

Sure enough, the woman really didn't lie.

But why, when there is still a chance, am I still so discouraged?

I'm really unwilling to accept this.
Xun'er gritted her teeth tightly, her hair disheveled, and muttered to herself almost popping out from between her teeth:
"I haven't lost yet!"

After saying that, regardless of Xiao Yan's puzzled look, Xun'er staggered out of the courtyard and gradually disappeared at the end of the sight.

When dusk gradually gave way to night, Xiao Yan finally withdrew his gaze, shook his head and smiled bitterly:
"Oh, this girl is really trying to pull my underwear out."

Xun'er's actions were so abrupt and unexpected that Xiao Yan didn't even have a chance to react.

If he had not been able to set a good example himself, Xiao Yan might not have had the confidence to argue with the girl in response to her repeated questions. This was a rare experience as a parent.

but
Could it be that the Yin Valley that Xun'er mentioned is really the force behind Ruoruo?

To be honest, Xiao Yan didn't really believe in so-called coincidences. Otherwise, when he first met Ruoruo in the Warcraft Mountains, he could have directly asked her about the origin of her surname.

Whether it was Ruoruo's concealment or Yao Lao's taboo, they all reminded Xiao Yan of the extent to which the power possessed by the forces behind the other party was exaggerated.

One palace, one tower, two sects, three valleys, and a square pavilion.

This was the mantra that Yao Lao mentioned when he introduced the strongest force in Zhongzhou. Being able to become one of the "Three Valleys", Yin Gu's strength is naturally beyond doubt!

Now that I have learned about it by chance, it can really be considered an unexpected success.

Thinking of the quarrel between the two just now, Xiao Yan felt a little nervous. Has Ruoruo completely recovered her memory now?

If she heard
With this thought in mind, Xiao Yan quickly walked into the yard, glanced around, and then walked into the house resignedly.

"Ruoruo, you——"

Before he finished speaking, Xiao Yan's eyes widened when he saw the empty room in front of him. He could hardly believe his eyes.

Xiao Yan was so panicked that he pinched his face fiercely, and his voice changed tone.

“People, where are the people?!!!”
