People fight and become emperors in advance

Chapter 47 The genius who has not yet fallen?
"Sir, is Canaan College far away?"

"Yeah, very far away."

"Then can Qinglin still follow the young master?"

"of course."

Standing on the second floor of Wanyaozhai, Xiao Yixian watched the two of them walk away, and the sound of their conversation became quieter and quieter until it could no longer be heard.

Looking away, a trace of confusion flashed across the little medical fairy's eyes.

After leaving Qingshan Town, where should we go?
...

the other side.

Chen Xiao led Qing Lin to walk and stop, and while they were on the road they did not delay their cultivation.

Although it took him two more days to return to Wutan City, his strength increased day by day. With the help of the Ice Spirit Cold Spring, the realm of Dou Ling was finally within his reach.

Walking in the market, Chen Xiao paid attention to the conversations of the people around him, thinking that he would hear some discussions about Xiao Yan. However, no one mentioned him from beginning to end.

"Has the genius not yet fallen?"

Chen Xiao began to feel suspicious. According to the timeline, Xiao Yan's strength decline should have started in this year.

With doubts, Chen Xiao came to the Xiao family compound.

The guard at the door still remembered him and seemed unaware that the changes in the situation in Wutan City were all caused by Chen Xiao. When he saw Chen Xiao and Qinglin coming in, he nodded and greeted them as friendly as before.

"Uncle Liu, Uncle Wang, nothing major has happened in the Xiao family recently, right?"

Chen Xiao smiled back and asked casually.

The two guards shook their heads.

"It's great. Ever since the Oba family disappeared, the Xiao family has become the dominant force in Wutan City. Even the Jialie family can't compare. Even guards like us who are just trying to make a living have seen our monthly salaries increase."

"If I have to say something strange, it would probably be Third Young Master Xiao Yan. He used to take people out every day, but recently, if I count carefully, I haven't seen him for more than ten days."

The two guards did not hide anything. In their hearts, Chen Xiao was also a member of the same circle, and his status was different from those young masters and young ladies of the Xiao family.

Chen Xiao nodded slightly, waved his hand and left with Qinglin.

It seems that Xiao Yan did have some problems, but they might have just begun to show signs and were hidden well.

After winding around the road, we returned to the cottage where we used to live.

Even though Chen Xiao had been away for quite some time, the cottage remained untouched. Even the furnishings and bedding inside were still in their original state and in perfect order.

Chen Xiao had enjoyed both happiness and hardship, and originally thought that he would not have to go through the trouble of changing his residence, but Qing Lin's next words made him realize the problem.

"Sir, are we going to live here from now on?"

Qinglin didn't dislike it. In fact, because this small house was not big and was similar to her previous living environment, she felt closer to Chen Xiao.

However, there was only one bed in the room.

This is a small problem.

Girls generally mature earlier. Looking at the only bed, Qinglin's face turned red.

"No, this is my former residence. I just came to take a look. Let's go find Elder Xiao Shiyi. The Xiao family is not short of two guest rooms."

Chen Xiao denied it calmly and refused to admit that he was inconsiderate.

The simple Qinglin chose to believe it and breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

...

The Xiao family's backyard is the core residential area.

A young girl in a purple dress sat on a stone bench in the courtyard, carefully studying an ancient book. This book contained many anecdotes and interesting stories, and although she had read it once before, she still found it fascinating when she read it again.

In this huge Xiao family, she has a special status and no close friends, so she can only spend her time reading.

Day after day, day after day.

Occasionally, when she saw her peers from the Xiao family playing and fighting in groups, she would miss the boy who grew up in the Xiao family but was not a member of the Xiao family.

When he was around, I would take two days out every month like my peers to go to the Mittel Auction House to join in the fun, go out facing the morning sun, come back in the evening breeze, and stroll on the street, carefree and leisurely.

When he was practicing fighting skills in the back mountain, he could watch like a teacher. A word of encouragement or praise could make the boy, who was slightly older than him, smile.

Sometimes, she would spot wild fruit growing high up in the sky, and even though she could get it by just whispering something in the shade, she preferred to rely on the young man and watch him suppress a hint of pride when he successfully retrieved it...

The puzzle pieces of memory are scattered, but when put together, they become a torrent that is enough to affect one's mood.

snort~
Suddenly, there was a ripple in the shadows in the corner, and a ghostly figure walked out from it.

The footsteps were light, but they still woke up the girl who was immersed in the sea of ​​books.

"Miss, when I came out of the Xiao family's vault just now, I saw Chen Xiao coming back."

Hearing this, the calm-looking girl immediately looked up, put down the ancient book in her hand, a hint of joy appeared on her pretty face, and after calming down a little, she nodded slightly.

"Brother Chen Xiao's long journey this time has indeed taken him quite a while."

"Miss, in fact, the last time he went out for training, it took him even longer."

"Have it?"

Xun'er was a little surprised. She clearly felt that Chen Xiao was away for a longer time this time.

Ling Ying nodded affirmatively. As a bodyguard and errand runner, he had a strong sense of time.

Xun'er paused slightly, accepted this irrefutable fact, picked up the ancient book again and played with it in her hands, as if wondering how she could make such a low-level mistake?

"How is Brother Chen Xiao's strength progressing?"

"He's only one step away from becoming a Douling Spirit. Judging from his condition, he could break through at any moment."

"I remember that when Brother Chen Xiao left, he was only a seven-star great Dou Shi. Now he is about to break through to Dou Ling so soon. It seems that he has gained a lot from this long journey." Xun'er smiled contentedly.

Ling Ying nodded, "Indeed, his growth rate has far exceeded this old slave's expectations."

"Oh, there's one more thing I need to tell you, Miss. Chen Xiao brought back a girl. She looks younger than you, Miss. Chen Xiao called her Qinglin."

The girl who was playing with the ancient book paused for a moment, then returned to normal in an instant.

"It's a nice name. Let's go check it out tomorrow. To be able to be taken care of by Brother Chen Xiao, I think there must be something extraordinary about him."

...

Two flowers bloom, one branch each.

While Ling Ying was reporting to Xun'er, Chen Xiao and Qing Lin had already moved into the guest room under the personal guidance of Elder Xiao Shiyi.

From the elder's attitude, it can be seen that he must know some inside information.

After seeing off this familiar elder, Chen Xiao was just about to go and say hello to Xun'er and take a look at Xiao Yan's condition.

Unfortunately, plans cannot keep up with changes. As soon as he stood up, Chen Xiao noticed that the fighting spirit in his body suddenly accelerated, as if it was out of control.

When the water is full, it will overflow. This is a sign of a breakthrough!
Chen Xiao's face lit up with joy, and he immediately closed the door with a flick of his sleeves, took out the only remaining bit of Ice Spirit Cold Spring from the ring and poured it into his mouth.

breakthrough!

Breakthrough priority!
