Chapter 36: Grabbed Right Up! [Please Read On]

Lu Xian and Lu Xueqi stopped in their tracks and looked down at the pitiful little one.

little girl?

Little beggar?

Little girl?

Lu Xian was stunned. I just went out shopping with Xiao Naiqi. What a coincidence!

The girl clinging to Lu Xueqi's skirt was a little girl with two pigtails. Her clothes were tattered and patched, and even her shoes had holes in the toes. Her face was also dirty, except for her pair of big eyes, which were as pure as black gemstones and exceptionally bright.

"Go away, go away! Why is it you again, you little beggar? Don't stay at the entrance of our restaurant, you're affecting our business!" The waiter of the restaurant saw that two distinguished customers who had just spent a lot of money were being pestered by the familiar little beggar at the entrance, so he hurriedly came out to drive them away, looking very annoyed. This was affecting the image of their restaurant.

The little girl was frightened by Xiao Er's fierce appearance. She loosened her grip on the hem of her skirt, looked at him with a wronged expression, and backed away in fear. Little Pearl swirled in her big, watery eyes as she timidly walked away, looking very lonely and pitiful.

Her figure was thin and frail, and she looked lonely. She walked timidly down the street with her head down, hurriedly avoiding the occasional passerby, and walked further and further away.

Lu Xian withdrew his gaze from her and glanced at Xiao Naiqi beside him, who was still staring blankly at the little girl's departing figure.

"I thought you would be overwhelmed with sympathy and immediately hug her, showering her with warmth and care," Lu Xian said, somewhat surprised.

Lu Xueqi is kind-hearted and innocent, and should be the one who can't stand this kind of scene, but she's actually spacing out. What is she thinking?

"I want to help her, but I can't..."

She lowered her head, feeling rather down. She knew very well that she was from another world, and she didn't have enough time-travel talismans to bring this pitiful little girl back to Qingyun and take care of her.

All that can be done is to give the little girl a meal to fill her stomach, but in the future, the little girl will still be begging for food on the street like tonight, being shunned and driven away by people in shops like restaurants, living a bitter life of going hungry one day and full the next.

The little girl just wanted to fill her stomach and didn't understand anything. The waiter only drove her away so as not to affect the restaurant's business. No one did anything wrong.

She couldn't stand this kind of thing, but there was nothing she could do to change it; she was powerless to change it.

Despite the bustling prosperity of this otherworldly capital, it turns out that not every ordinary person is as well-fed and clothed as they seem.

So, what about one's own world?

With evil forces running rampant and acting recklessly, how difficult it must have been for ordinary people to live!

She now somewhat understands the meaning behind Lu Xian's words in the group chat, which told her to go down the mountain more often to experience the world and see the coldness and warmth of human nature.

Punishing the wicked and helping the weak, walking through the world—that's what she should do after leaving the mountain. Although Qingyun is good, it also keeps all the bad things in the world outside its gates, protecting its disciples too well.

Immortals shouldn't be cultivated like this!

……

"Actually... it's not that we can't help."

Lu Xian, unaware of her thoughts, saw that she looked somewhat forlorn and gently comforted her, "Meeting her is a kind of fate. Actually, we can take her back and let Ye Hei take care of her."

"Fellow Daoist Ye Fan?"

"Won't this cause him trouble?"

Lu Xueqi frowned slightly. She had thought about this idea before, but she felt it was inappropriate.

She remembered that Lu Xian had once said in the group that Ye Fan was in a difficult situation and had spent most of his early life being chased. Under such circumstances, it would be irresponsible to let him bring a little girl along.

Besides, does that mean Ye Fan will have to take care of every pitiful person he encounters in the future?

"If it were any other young girl, she would really be a burden to Ye Hei, but she is not. Her identity is not simple," Lu Xian said.

"Identity? What is her identity?" Lu Xueqi asked in confusion.

"In short, she's not an ordinary person..."

Lu Xian took out a roast chicken wrapped in oil paper from his storage ring, shook it, and chuckled, "Let's go, come with me to kidnap a little girl."

"..."

Lu Xueqi rolled her eyes at this, and wondered why she was getting so inappropriate again.

Seeing Lu Xian stride after the little girl with ill intentions, she was a little worried and quickly followed behind.

The little girl was walking timidly down the street, wondering where she could find food to fill her stomach, when suddenly she found herself being grabbed by the armpit, lifted further and further off the ground, then lifted up and pulled into a warm embrace.

She was a little flustered, and timidly looked up, only to meet a handsome face that was pretending to be fierce.

"Kid, from now on, you're my kidnapper!"

"Waaah~"

Upon hearing this, the little girl's lips twitched, and tiny pearls began to swirl in her bright, dark eyes.

Just as she opened her mouth to cry, a large chicken leg was stuffed into her mouth.

"Mmm~ Smack smack~~~"

Really fragrant!

She held the big chicken leg in both hands and ate it heartily, forcing back her tears. She secretly sized up the older brother who was hugging her. Beside him was an older sister who looked like a kind person; they were the two people she had met at the restaurant entrance earlier.

Why are you scaring her?

Lu Xueqi glared at Lu Xian with dissatisfaction, then leaned over and gently stroked the little girl's head. The frost on her face, which had remained unchanged for years, melted away like the first snow, and she tried her best to make her expression appear more gentle and kind.

"Little sister, don't be afraid, we are not bad people."

"I know, little girl." The little girl nodded, holding the big chicken leg. Bad people wouldn't give her anything to eat.

"Nannan? Is that your name? Why are you out looking for food alone so late at night? Don't you have any family to take care of you?"

The little girl was munching on a chicken leg when she heard her older sister's question. Her big, dark eyes looked a little lost, and she shook her head in confusion. "I don't remember. It seems like I've forgotten a lot of things. I don't know where I came from or where I'm going. Everyone else has family, but I don't. Everyone bullies me. I'm so lonely, so sad, and so scared."

When she got to the sad part, the little girl's eyes reddened, and she looked like she was about to cry, but she held back and didn't let the tears fall.

Poor baby...

Lu Xueqi felt a lump in her throat and a pang of sadness in her heart. She found it hard to imagine how much hardship and pitiful things this young child had gone through...

Didn't Lu Xian say that she had a special identity?

So why do we still experience these things?

"Let's go back first. We've been out for quite a while, and Ye Hei and the others must be getting impatient..."

Lu Xian spoke softly, and Lu Xueqi hesitated for a moment before nodding. Since the little girl had no relatives, it wouldn't hurt to take her away. She summoned the Tianya Divine Sword, and the three of them rode together on a beam of sword light, quickly drifting away from the bustling city.

"Big brother, where are you taking Nannan?"

It was the little girl's first time being carried in a flight, and she didn't dare to look down at all, shrinking into Lu Xian's arms like an ostrich.

"Of course, we'll kidnap Nannan and sell her to a shady factory to work." Lu Xian started teasing the little girl in his arms with a wicked smile.

The little girl timidly raised her head. "But I think the big brother is a good person..."

"I don't care what you think, I only care what I think!"

"Waaah~"

The little girl was about to cry again. "Big brother, please don't sell me. I'll be very good. I'll wash clothes and mop the floor..."

"You really are..." Lu Xueqi turned around in annoyance. This bastard, she really wanted to shove a kick into his mouth so that he would never say anything nice.

I think I'm being targeted; the second chapter has been censored again...
