"Nan, Miss Nangong's kindness, Xue is very grateful."
After a long while, Xue Pingxi came back to his senses and said with a blushing face, "It's just that I already have something in my heart. I'm really, really sorry..."
This idiot finally has some conscience!
Seeing that Xue Pingxi seemed to be rejecting Nangong Ling's advances, Xuan Ming felt as if he had drank a bottle of Bingkuoluo in the dog days of summer. His heart felt extremely comfortable, and his sharp eyes suddenly softened a lot.
Wait, why am I happy?
Whether he accepts this woman or not, what does it have to do with me?
Suddenly aware of his own thoughts, Xuan Ming's cheeks turned red and his heart pounded, as if he realized for the first time what kind of sixth place Xue Pingxi was in his heart.
"Brother Xue, is this girl Xuanming still what you like?"
When Nangong Ling was rejected by him, his expression dimmed instantly, and a mist appeared in his smart eyes unconsciously, "Is it possible that my little sister is too ugly to be able to stand in your eyes?"
"How, how could it be possible? Miss Nangong is extremely beautiful and is a well-known beauty in the imperial capital. How can she be called ugly?"
Looking at Nangong Ling's sad and weeping expression, as weak and aggrieved as Xiaojiabiyu, Xue Pingxi immediately panicked, shook his head repeatedly, and denied loudly, "It is true that Xue already has someone else in his heart. If he accepts your kindness again, it will be unavoidable." It’s so unfair to you.”
"Brother Xue, now you are careless and ruthless. Although you love Miss Xuanming, she has no sympathy for you." Nangong Ling was not discouraged and said calmly, "Besides, she is just a remnant of the 'Seven Star Pavilion' , living alone in this world, with no one to rely on, but surrounded by many enemies, and my little sister is not only the legitimate daughter of the Nangong family, but also the chief disciple of Piaohua Palace. She will definitely be able to provide you with a lot of help in the future. Brother Xue is a smart man, I guess I don’t need to say more about what should I choose?”
As soon as these words came out, Xuan Ming's expression changed, and he had a vague premonition in his heart.
Just as Nangong Ling said, not only did she not have the 'Seven Star Pavilion' to rely on, but she was also included in the hunting list by the Yiren Valley. She was as panic-stricken as a bereaved dog, and she was seriously injured. Her combat effectiveness was not as good as that of an Earth Chakra practitioner. For generals, Xue Pingxi, who was born in China, could not provide much help.
On the other hand, Nangong Ling is not only beautiful and resourceful, but also has a prominent life experience and a powerful sect as a backing, making him the best candidate for marriage.
If he chooses to combine with her, it will be of great help to Xue Pingxi's career and cultivation.
In contrast to the two, she, who had always been confident, suddenly found that she was worthless and a scumbag in front of Nangong Ling.
If I were in his position, I would definitely choose this woman, right?
Such an idea appeared in her mind involuntarily.
Here we go again, Xuan Ming, wake up!
Whether he chooses this woman or not, what does it have to do with me?
Suddenly realizing that her mind was shaken, she quickly shook her head, trying to put these miscellaneous thoughts behind her.
"Miss Nangong's words are wrong."
Unexpectedly, Xue Pingxi shook his head decisively and said, "How can Xue be a follower who relies on his wife to get rich? As long as I like her, what does it matter about her life experience?"
He actually refused?
There was a look of surprise in Xuan Ming's eyes, and he could hardly believe his ears.
fraud!
How could there be such a stupid person in the world?
He must be trying to trick me into telling me the whereabouts of the Stranger Valley!
Xuan Ming repeatedly tried to persuade herself not to believe this man, but an indescribable warmth still flowed through her body unconsciously. She felt her nose was sore and there seemed to be water droplets in her eyes.
"Brother Xue is so upright and honest, my little sister admires him!"
Nangong Ling didn't seem to give up. He leaned close to Xue Pingxi's ear and whispered softly, "But who said a man can only have one wife? My sister's liking of you does not prevent you from loving her."
This naughty fox!
Seeing Nangong Ling and Xue Pingxi getting closer and closer, actually stalking each other with no intention of giving up, Xuan Ming felt extremely irritated, and there was undisguised murderous intent in his eyes when he looked at her.
"Nan, Miss Nangong."
Feeling Nangong Ling's orchid breath, Xue Pingxi blushed even more, took two steps back quickly, and said with a wry smile, "W-why are you doing this?"
"Brother Xue, are you really so heartless?"
Nangong Ling pouted and complained, then her beautiful eyes lit up, as if she had thought of some good idea, "This woman is my enemy, and she doesn't want to reveal the news about the Stranger Valley. Obviously I have made up my mind to resist, and it is absolutely impossible to get General Xue to agree to this marriage, but my little sister has a way."
"Oh? What can I do?" Xue Pingxi became interested when he heard that he could marry Xuan Ming.
"As the commander of the coalition forces, my little sister has a lot of responsibilities, so she has to be imprisoned and interrogated strictly." Nangong Ling continued, "But after asking about the location of the Stranger Valley, how to deal with her will be decided. In my mind, if Brother Xue is willing to accept my little sister's wish, I can make the decision and let her marry into the Xue Mansion as a maidservant. By then, although you will not be called husband and wife, you can still be husband and wife, how about it? "
"you……"
Xue Pingxi didn't expect that after going around and around her, she still didn't give up. Instead, she intensified her efforts and even used Xuan Ming as a bargaining chip to blackmail him. He couldn't help but be very annoyed and his face suddenly darkened.
"You don't have to worry anymore."
Before he could get angry, Xuan Ming, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said, "I can tell you the location of the Stranger Valley right now."
"Xuan Ming, have you figured it out?" Xue Pingxi was overjoyed when he heard this.
"I understand. Daqian and Yirengu are both enemies anyway, so it would be a good choice to let you two fight against each other." Xuan Ming turned his face, and for some reason, he didn't dare to look at him.
"Oh? Miss Xuanming, didn't you just say that you would not cooperate with me even if you died?" Nangong Ling looked at her with doubtful eyes and said, "You can't just randomly put out false information to fool me, right?"
"Believe it or not!" Xuan Ming never expected that after going through countless psychological struggles, he finally made up his mind to reveal the information about the Stranger Valley, but the other party was skeptical. His pretty face turned red and he was so angry that he almost lost his temper. Your lungs will explode.
"Miss Nangong." Seeing this, Xue Pingxi quickly came out to smooth things over, "Xuan Ming is an upright person. Although she has a bad temper, she will never lie. Since she is willing to say it, it must be true. I am willing to guarantee it with my life. !”
"Since Brother Xue has said so, little sister will just believe her for now."
A hint of sadness flashed in Nangong Ling's eyes, he sighed and said slowly, "Who made me fail to live up to my expectations and love you to death?"
Seeing that the once aloof goddess of wisdom showed such a look for her sake, Xue Pingxi couldn't help but feel guilty, and the anger that had been aroused suddenly dissipated without a trace.
He didn't even notice that it was Nangong Ling who took the initiative to ask for news about the Stranger Valley before. As the conversation progressed, the direction gradually changed. Now it seemed that he and Xuan Ming were begging to tell her.
"Tianquan told me the location of the Stranger Valley."
Xuan Ming's eyes were as sharp as a knife, as if he wanted to make seventeen or eight holes in Nangong Ling's body, and he said coldly, "She only said nine words at that time, East, West, South, Seven withered Teng, Tao Li Mei, you can figure it out for yourself Go!"
"East, west, south, seven withered vines, peaches and plums..."
Nangong Lingmei's eyes were half closed, and she repeated these nine words in her mouth. But within a few breaths, she suddenly smiled slightly, with a confident light in her eyes, "I understand, thank you!"
Does she understand now?
When Xuan Ming saw her understanding instantly, he was shocked and felt a deep sense of frustration in his heart.
You must know that she spent a whole day on these nine words in order to find the Valley of Strangers. The reason why she was able to find it in the end was partly due to luck.
"Little sister, I will go to the Stranger Valley to investigate. Brother Xue is still injured, so there is no need to accompany him." Nangong Ling said softly to Xue Pingxi, "Ten miles further south, you can see General Zeng's camp. , you two take care, no matter whether you are looking for the Stranger Valley or not, my little sister will come back to see you."
"No, no matter how hard you try, he won't like you."
To everyone's expectation, Xuan Ming, who had always been cold and arrogant, hugged Xue Pingxi's neck tightly from behind and said viciously to Nangong Ling, "He is mine!"
"Xuan, Xuan Ming, you..."
Xue Pingxi's neck was tightened so tightly that it was even difficult to breathe. However, the wonderful touch on his back made him feel ecstatic, his eyes gleaming, and he almost fainted with happiness.
"Brother Xue and the Xue family's sister-in-law are in love with each other and are in love with each other. It seems that there is no room for my little sister to interfere."
The sadness on Nangong Ling's face suddenly disappeared, her eyes were full of teasing, she covered her lips and said with a sweet smile, "Then once again I wish you both a happy marriage and a happy marriage. Let me drink this wedding wine." deal!"
After saying that, she turned around gracefully and headed north towards the sky.
Ziyuan and Hualu looked at each other, and saw a sense of relief in each other's eyes. Then they jumped up and followed Nangong Ling.
"I was scared to death. I thought that the senior sister really fell in love with this man. It turned out that she was fooling him!"
"Of course, you don't know what kind of person Senior Sister is, how could you fall in love with such a thing?"
"I also know it's impossible, but the senior sister's acting is so similar. Her little eyes and expression almost broke my heart."
"Yes, this is the first time I have seen a senior sister like that. Is it true that a smart person can do anything?"
"That man really thought that my senior sister was vying to marry him. It's funny just thinking about it!"
"Men are all the same. They are so ordinary, but they are always so confident..."
Xue Pingxi stood there in confusion, like a sculpture.
The chatter of the two girls above his head reached his ears word for word, which made him feel mixed emotions in his heart. He didn't know whether to cry or laugh.
Xuan Ming buried her pink face on his shoulder and never raised her head again. However, for some reason, her smooth and jade-like neck had a faint pink color...
