But when he pushed open the door excitedly, he only saw the neatly made, deserted bed and his granddaughter in her cradle who would not cry.
There was too much regret and sorrow to express in words, so he could only devote all his remaining energy to Long Lianxue.
Du Xiuming is unwilling to interfere too much in his granddaughter's growth and will only provide protection silently.
It is for this reason that the Liuying Sect, which is considered to be neither big nor small by outsiders, has a powerful combined combat force secretly in charge.
Even though Du Xiuming was indeed a member of the Liuying Sect back then, no sect leader dares to disrespect him now, and most of them respectfully call him "senior".
He was strong enough to start his own sect, but Long Lianxue was born in the Long family, and he was the Long family's priest. When Long Lianxue wanted to join a sect, he registered as the supreme elder of the Liuying Sect where he had stayed before.
But it was not until today that Du Xiuming realized that this was not enough.
He was not a good father and didn't even see his daughter for the last time.
He wanted to be a qualified grandfather, but not only did he not witness the birth of his granddaughter, he didn't even see her die... No, it was impossible, Lianxue was definitely not dead.
If someone could help him find Long Lianxue at this moment, he, Du Xiuming——
“Lian Xue…!”
Somehow, he felt a call from his blood suddenly. Du Xiuming looked up in surprise, but a familiar male voice came to his ears.
"Qian one, Xun five..."
Jiuzhanzi immediately frowned, as if he understood something, and observed the star-falling land with thunder and lightning around him.
Some formations do require internal information to break through. He had realized this a long time ago, but he was stuck in a vicious circle because he couldn't get in.
He didn't know who the master who helped him was, what his purpose was, or even whether he was a friend or an enemy.
But now, this grandfather in the fusion stage has no choice but to follow the other party's instructions. He will have the chance to repay such a great favor only when they meet in person.
As a result, Du Xiuming's movements became faster.
…………
"They're going to escape."
The scene in the ruins altar gradually became clear again, but Sangxing's face suddenly turned cold.
The old man in the fusion stage, as if he had received some guidance from someone, suddenly discovered and secured the exit of the ruins that they had hidden in advance.
Now the entire gate of the ruined city is empty, and it is like a sieve that allows people to enter and exit freely.
Sang Xing originally thought that it was only because Xiao Jinyun simply preferred roasted chicken that Ye Xun allowed the wild rabbits they released to run around the city.
But when several of the hares turned into silver liquid and slowly melted, returning to Ye Xun, she realized that the man of the "Mother Goddess" was not that simple, and most likely he had already seen through the truth of the city closure.
Before this, Sangxing just treated the other party as an ordinary cultivator, and at most he was able to remain calm or do some yw.
Now, she realized that Ye Xun was indeed not a man she could control at will. Whether it was his medical skills, his state of mind, or the "Moon Marrow" that was only a little short of sanity to be called an innate spiritual treasure, they were all enough to make Sang Xing very upset, but she had to admire him secretly.
"Ahem, then what, what should we do?"
Xishen coughed lightly, a little embarrassed. Just now, she was trying to imitate Sangxing's movements to tease Ye Xun's interest.
But maybe because she was really not good at it, she didn't get any response. Now her plan was completely disrupted by that heartless man. She looked at her companions.
"Tsk."
It was too late to regret now. Sangxing could only grab Xishen, who had not yet reacted, and put his hand on his heart, and together they activated the no-fly formation.
"The 'Mother Goddess' didn't fall for your good luck spell at all. We were used. I'll open the air control array first... at least I can't let her escape."
The gate of the ruins was forced open, and the space channel connecting to the outside world was constantly eroding this small world, and the entire city was crumbling.
Sangxing raised a cold smile at the corner of his mouth and stared at the figure of the man flying on the sword in the altar.
Her original intention was just to see if Ye Xun was qualified to continue the Xiao family's bloodline, and then decide whether to let them out based on the result.
However, Ye Xun's actions were far beyond Sang Xing's expectations, and he even used him in return.
Damn it, I must not let anyone know what I just did...
In the altar, three figures were already flying towards the exit on their swords.
Sang Xing herself didn't even notice that, although her target should have been Xiao Jinyun, her eyes were always fixed on Ye Xun's figure.
It's interesting, but it's not enough to escape from her clutches.
She wanted to see how many cards Ye Xun had left.
…………
Ye Xun stepped on the long sword, holding Xiao Jinyun in his arms. Long Lianxue also followed behind him on the sword, her eyes flickering as if she was thinking about something.
The exit of the ruins has been moving at high speed. Where it will open specifically depends on the timing when Du Xiuming breaks through from the outside world.
Even when drunk, one cannot get a glimpse into the situation in the other small world.
The exit of the ruins was a bit remote, so Ye Xun had no choice but to set off immediately, flying on his sword at the fastest speed, not daring to stop for even a moment.
Suddenly, an overwhelming pressure descended from the sky, as if a brutal and unreasonable hand pressed the three people down and threw them to the ground.
The blue brick roof raised a cloud of dust, and Ye Xun and the other two fell through the roof and fell into a room.
Chapter 67: Warmth is Addictive
It was an air control restriction that had disappeared for a long time. As the remains of the ancient city of the Xiao family, the power of this formation was extremely strong. Even Ye Xun himself could not avoid some internal injuries. He could only take a pill to hold on.
He wanted to confirm his patient's condition first, but fortunately, Xiao Jinyun just gave him a forced smile.
Now that she has strength, she won't get hurt easily anymore, but this skirt was given to her by Ye Xun...
The slight feeling of loss lasted only for a moment, but the little mute was more relieved that Ye Xun was safe and sound.
Ye Xun breathed a sigh of relief and turned to look at Long Lianxue who was leaning against the wall and giving him a bitter smile.
“I may not be able to leave.”
She didn't have time to change her clothes, and was still wearing the plain white lingerie that Ye Xun had given her for easier care.
The clothes were a little thin, and the girl's figure was trembling slightly in the wind, with blood constantly oozing from her calves.
The air control formation was activated unexpectedly, and a powerful force that was enough to suppress a Return to Void strongman came down from the sky. Long Lianxue could feel that her leg was seriously injured, but she could do nothing about it.
After all, even if his grandfather was a powerful combined warrior, he couldn't force the entrance to this small world open for too long.
Ye Xun didn't say much. He immediately helped Long Lianxue sit up straight, carefully lifted up her trouser legs, and then took off her flat embroidered shoes.
The red-haired girl's feet were not the traditional three-inch golden lotus, but the shape was equally delicate and beautiful, and her skin was fair with a hint of blue.
Her toes were slightly curled up, not sure if it was because of pain or shyness. She was lying on the side in the flat embroidered shoes she had just taken off, and the shoes were slightly warm.
As the eldest sister of a peak and the eldest daughter of a clan, Long Lianxue had never thought that her feet would be grasped by a man.
She thought she would be the one who took care of others, and she also wanted to take care of her junior sister when she went out with him, but she was the one who was taken care of without realizing it.
As a part that is not exposed to the light on a daily basis, it is as shameful as other parts wrapped in cloth, or even more so.
After all, if your feet are caught, it means you can't escape.
Long Lianxue's pretty face flushed slightly, her proud breasts heaving slightly. She wanted to turn her pretty face away to escape, but she couldn't help but steal glances.
Ye Xun observed very seriously, but he didn't seem to be admiring or playing with her. His fingers lightly touched the slightly swollen ankles and calves.
The situation was not optimistic. If Long Lianxue forced herself to move forward despite her injury, she would probably not be able to take a few steps before her leg would be completely disabled.
Immorality and shame broke into the girl's heart one after another. Long Lianxue was nervous, but she was reluctant to take back the beautiful white jade foot with slightly distressing bruises and bloodstains.
His palms were warm and covered with thin calluses, almost the same as what he had imagined at that time. Now that he experienced it personally, he suddenly felt a little dazed and a little... addicted.
Long Lianxue bit her lip, looking at the exit in the distance that was shrinking with a hint of reluctance.
Only when she realized that she might be completely trapped here did the girl realize how much she wanted to get out... and be with him.
Ye Xun had already clearly understood Long Lianxue's injuries through touch.
If I force myself to move forward, I'm afraid I won't be able to take a few steps before my leg is completely useless.
"Your bones are broken and your ankle is dislocated. I don't have time to treat it properly now."
Long Lianxue's pretty face froze. It was the first time she heard the words "too late" from Ye Xun.
In the past, she had unknowingly regarded Ye Xun as her omnipotent backbone.
Long Lianxue suddenly smiled with relief. She lowered her head slightly, not wanting Ye Xun to see the disappointment in her eyes.
"You guys go first, don't waste your time because of me."
She suddenly realized that she might have to accompany Ye Xun and the little mute to this point.
Long Lianxue took out her personal sword and handed it to Ye Xun as a token of trust, to prevent Du Xiuming outside from misunderstanding them.
The significance of a sword cultivator holding up his sword is actually quite significant.
Fortunately, the girl was glad that she did not rush to express her messy feelings in advance, so that their separation now would not make them too sad.
Ye Xun did not respond, but tore the girl's trouser leg, revealing a smooth calf, took out the ointment, quickly applied it to the bleeding part of the skin, and prepared to bandage it.
Long Lianxue's pretty face turned even redder. She snorted softly and felt her dislocated ankle being easily reconnected by Ye Xun, but it still could not support her body.
"What are you doing? Take Jinyun away quickly. With my sword, Grandpa won't make things difficult for you..."
When she was suddenly carried on his back, Long Lianxue was a little flustered. Her bare foot instinctively swayed slightly due to the weightlessness, and it hurt so much that she gasped.
Du Xiuming was struggling to hold on to the exit of the ruins city. If Ye Xun casually abandoned Long Lianxue, even if he successfully escaped from the ruins, he would not be able to explain to the powerful man in the fusion stage.
What can a sword mean?
Therefore, he must get Long Lianxue out safely.
"I will take all of you out, no one less."
Ye Xun's expression was calm. The little mute just silently put away the bottles and jars that he didn't have time to take, and followed behind him firmly.
All……
The red-haired girl blinked and suddenly felt a little dazed and unreal.
Long Lianxue has always known that she could not be as important as Xiao Jinyun in Ye Xun's eyes.
This is also the reason why she has been entangled in her feelings. She has always been unwilling to be a third party.
But Ye Xun agreed to take her out as well.
As Ye Xun moved forward, Long Lianxue gradually relaxed. With a red face, she leaned behind the boy, unconsciously sniffing the scent of the herbs, her soft chest slightly squeezed between the two of them.
She gradually adapted to the distance, and her troubled mood seemed to begin to change.
After all, the speed of the three people's progress could not match that of flying a sword. Ye Xun was already moving forward at the fastest speed with Long Lianxue on his back, but he was still much slower because of the complex terrain of the ruins city.
This is enough to satisfy the "Taotie" waiting ahead.
It was not because of Long Lianxue that time was wasted. The huge ferocious beast had already been waiting here, waiting for Ye Xun and the others to come to it.
It was clearly in the shape of an animal, with a sheep's body, but its strange eyes looked like those of a human, clearly black and white, and its pupils were staring at Ye Xun with interest.
Obviously, it had already developed intelligence and was even stronger than any opponent Ye Xun had ever met before. It had even been secretly observing Ye Xun and his companions.
The reason why the Xiao family was able to dominate the four continents in the past was not only because of the powerful talent in their blood, but also because of the contract they signed with the ancient ferocious beast "Taotie".
Taotie and the Xiao family prosper together and suffer together. The outside world has even equated the two.
It is the incompleteness of the way of heaven. If given the chance, it can even devour and tear apart the rules of heaven.
…………
Outside the ruins passage, a breathtaking ray of lightning fell from the clouds.
Du Xiuming's pupils constricted and he almost couldn't hold the exit of the passage. He instinctively wanted to use all his strength to resist, but the thunder tribulation didn't even look at this powerful fusion cultivator, and rushed straight to the passage that he had opened in anger.
What on earth appeared inside that actually angered the way of heaven... The white-browed old man inevitably felt nervous, looking at the rolling sky above his head that seemed to be angry.
Chapter 68: Taotie
It sounded like a baby crying, or like a mockery. The ferocious beast was struck by lightning, but it just shook its mane, raised its head and roared, as if mocking the thundercloud outside.
It lowered its head again, staring with interest at a group of ants that were not even as tall as its calves, and stared closely at Ye Xun, who seemed inconspicuous among them.
…………
"Did you release the Taotie?"
