Qiu Bufan obviously didn't want to say too much, so he walked quickly towards Qiu Ling.
As soon as he approached, Qiu Ling was awakened from her cultivation state.
Qiu Ling's face turned a little pale. She was obviously affected and the energy was not flowing smoothly in her body.
Qiu Bufan doesn't care about this:
"Xiao Ling, come home with me!"
Qiu Ling was stunned, "Dad, why are you here?"
Qiu Bufan frowned:
"Xiaoling, you must marry into the Mi family. This matter can no longer be postponed."
"Our Qiu family and the Mi family are family friends. The head of the Mi family and I are sworn brothers. If you marry, the Mi family will definitely treat you well."
Qiu Ling's eyes suddenly turned red.
She didn't expect that she had already hid in the Tianming Sect, but her father still chased her.
At this moment, Xiao Zhan opened his eyes, glanced here, and then closed his eyes again.
It is said that it is difficult for an upright official to deal with family affairs. Xiao Zhan does not want to get involved in the Qiu family's family affairs. This is not good for Xiao Zhan, nor is it good for Qiu Ling.
Qiu Ya frowned and said:
"Dad, I don't agree with marrying Xiaoling to the Mi family!"
Qiu Bufan glared at Qiu Ya:
"Xiaoya, haven't you understood what I just said to you?"
"Xiaoling must marry into the Mi family!"
Qiu Ya shook her head, pulled Qiu Ling behind her, and said in a deep voice:
"No matter what the reason is, Xiaoling's lifelong happiness should not be sacrificed!"
"I am your father!" Qiu Bufan's eyes widened:
"You are my Qiu Bufan's daughters. Whatever I say will be done! How could I still harm you?"
"You are members of the Qiu family, why not make some contributions to the Qiu family!"
"Besides, this matter is not harmful at all to Xiaoling!"
"It's not like you don't know Xiaoling's talent for cultivation!"
Qiu Ya shook her head and said again: .net
"Xiaoling is making rapid progress now, even faster than me. Letting her marry into the Mi family is a loss to our Qiu family!"
Qiu Bufan glared at Qiu Ya, then stretched out his hand to hold Qiu Ling and shouted:
"Follow me! No matter what you say today, I will take you back!"
Qiu Ling pursed her lips, tears flashing in her eyes.
She looked towards Xiao Zhan and shouted with choked sobs:
"Senior Brother Xiao, can you help me?"
Xiao Zhan didn't react at all.
"Master, please help me, please?" Qiu Ling burst into tears.
Xiao Zhan slowly opened his eyes, sighed, stood up, and walked towards them.
Qiu Bufan narrowed his eyes and looked at Xiao Zhan:
"Are you going to mind your own business?"
"This is a family matter of my Qiu family, no one has the right to interfere!"
Xiao Zhan nodded:
"You are right. As the head of the Qiu family, you have your own considerations."
Qiu Bufan hummed:
"It seems that you are a sensible person."
Xiao Zhan smiled and said:
"But Qiu Ya is right."
"Qiu Ling has made rapid progress. You married her to the Mi family, which is the biggest loss to your Qiu family."
Qiu Bufan frowned:
"Unless Qiu Ya and Qiu Ling can grow to a level that makes the other two families afraid."
Xiao Zhan smiled:
"If you come back to see them in a month, you will be impressed by Qiu Ya and Qiu Ling at that time."
Qiu Bufan frowned and looked at Xiao Zhan, and then his eyes fell on the faces of Qiu Ya and Qiu Ling.
"No father in this world would be willing to force his daughter to do something she doesn't want to do."
"But I have to consider the entire Qiu family."
"That's it, one month later
, you go back to the Qiu family. If you really have that strength by then, I agree not to marry Xiaoling to the Mi family. "
"But if not, I hope you won't mess around anymore."
Qiu Ya fell silent.
There was concern in her eyes.
After all, a month is too short!
No matter how talented she and Qiu Ling are, how much progress can they make in a month?
But seeing the smile on Xiao Zhan's face, Qiu Ya suddenly felt confident for no reason.
Qiu Bufan left quickly.
Qiu Ya and Qiu Ling looked at Xiao Zhan, their eyes full of expectation.
Xiao Zhan rolled his eyes at Qiu Ling and said, "Dry your tears first before you smile, otherwise I will think you were just pretending to be pitiful."
Qiu Ling smiled and then wiped her tears.
Xiao Zhan thought for a while, looked at Qiu Ya and Qiu Ling and said:
"You guys come with me."
After saying that, Xiao Zhan walked towards the foot of the mountain.
Qiu Ya and Qiu Ling followed Xiao Zhan with doubts on their faces.
Not long after, Xiao Zhan led the two of them to the outside of Tianming Tower.
Qiu Ya and Qiu Ling's eyes lit up.
Xiao Zhan waved his hand, and an invisible force led Qiu Ya and Qiu Ling into the Destiny Tower.
Xiao Zhan said:
"You go through it yourself first and see which level you can reach in ten days."
As soon as he finished speaking, the void around Xiao Zhan began to vibrate, and his figure also appeared on the top floor.
The weapon spirit turned into a ray of light and shadow, came to Xiao Zhan, and said with a smile:
"Why did you bring two little guys in?"
Xiao Zhan chuckled lightly and recounted the Qiu family's affairs as if recounting family affairs.
Qi Ling smiled:
"Is such a trivial matter worth your attention?"
"Having lived for tens of thousands of years, you are still interested in these trivial things?"
Xiao Zhan spoke slowly:
"After living for many years, I still have seven emotions and six desires."
"These juniors are still too young. As elders, they should guide them."
"Just because it's just a piece of cake for us, maybe we can change their destiny."
"Although changing the fate of others is not necessarily a good thing, it is not a bad thing either."
Qi Ling hummed and slowly said:
"You should also seize the time to practice."
After the weapon spirit said this, it turned into a ball of white light and disappeared.
The next moment, majestic energy enveloped Xiao Zhan.
Xiao Zhan sat down cross-legged and began to absorb the rich energy to practice.
Ten days passed quickly.
Qiu Ya reached the ninth floor.
Qiu Ling only reached the sixth floor.
This was because Xiao Zhan deliberately made it more difficult for them to pass the level.
Xiao Zhan thought, Qiu Ling and Qiu Ya appeared on the top floor, and the place turned into a white world.
Xiao Zhan looked at the two people and said:
"Next, you still have twenty days. How much you can learn in these twenty days depends on your own abilities."
"Opportunities are given to you, but if you want to change your own destiny, you have to rely on yourself."
After saying that, Xiao Zhan's figure flashed and disappeared.
The moment Xiao Zhan disappeared, streaks of white light transformed into a giant of light and shadow, holding a lightsaber and began to practice some kind of swordsmanship.
Qiu Ya could tell at a glance that this swordsmanship was very good.
One month later.
Xiao Zhan took Qiu Ya and Qiu Ling away from the Tianming Sect and flew towards the Qiu family.
The flying boat turned into a stream of light in the sky, attracting the attention of many senior officials of the Destiny Sect.
But when they saw that the Tianming Tower was still standing in the hinterland of the sect, they breathed a sigh of relief.
Qiu family.
After Xiao Zhan landed with Qiu Ya and Qiu Ling, he looked at them and said:
"The rest is your own household affairs."
"I'm walking around the city. When you're done, just send me a message."
After saying that, Xiao Zhan jumped into the air and disappeared at the door of Qiu's house.
The servants of the Qiu family smiled and greeted Qiu Ling and Qiu Ya.
Qiu Ya nodded and walked into Qiu's house with Qiu Ling.
Both of them had smiles on their faces.
Because even they didn't expect that their strength would improve so much in just one month.
Qiu Bufan was already waiting in the backyard.
As soon as Qiu Ling and Qiu Ya arrived, Qiu Bufan didn't hesitate at all. He raised his hands and mobilized powerful energy to attack Qiu Ya and Qiu Ling.
Qiu Ya and Qiu Ling also reacted quickly and immediately attacked.
A moment later, Qiu Bufan looked at his two daughters breathlessly, his eyes full of disbelief.
"Xiaoya, Xiaoling, how come your strength has improved so much?"
Qiu Ya said truthfully:
"It was Senior Brother Xiao who helped me."
Qiu Bufan wanted to ask again, but Qiu Ya had already kept silent.
After all, the sect had strict rules regarding the fact that Xiao Zhan had asked the Tianming Tower to recognize its master, and no one with knowledge of the matter was allowed to mention it to the outside world.
Because in that case, it is very likely that other forces will try to win over Xiao Zhan.
I'm talking about Xiao Zhan, who is in a tavern in the city, drinking wine and listening to the storyteller tell stories.
Qiu Ya and Qiu Ling also came here not long after.
As soon as the two entered the tavern, they attracted the attention of many people.
First of all, this is a tavern, and the wine sold is very cheap. The people who come here are not wealthy people.
Secondly, Qiu Ya and Qiu Ling are the daughters of the Qiu family, one of the three major families in the city, so naturally everyone in the city knows them.
So when the two of them appeared, the drinkers around them had no surprise in their eyes, but rather some fear.
In their opinion, being in the same tavern with the two daughters of the Qiu family is a very dangerous thing, because if they accidentally offend these two, their lives will be in danger.
Qiu Ya and Qiu Ling walked directly to where Xiao Zhan was and sat down on the left and right sides of Xiao Zhan.
The shopkeeper of the tavern came over with sweat on his face, clasped his fists at Qiu Ya and Qiu Ling, and said respectfully:
"Miss, Miss Second, is there anything you need me to do?"
Qiu Ya smiled and shook her head:
"We're just here to sit down, you don't have to go out of your way to entertain us."
Xiao Zhan smiled and said:
"The wine here is pretty good. Let's give them two more bottles."
The shopkeeper was stunned for a moment, then nodded quickly and turned around to get the wine.
But how can the wine here be called good?
As soon as the wine enters the throat, it is spicy and dry.
Qiu Ya and Qiu Ling both choked and blushed.
But looking at Xiao Zhan again, he was drinking happily, and I heard that Mr. Shu told the story with gusto.
About half an hour later, Xiao Zhan stood up and walked out of the tavern with Qiu Ya and Qiu Ling, who were slightly drunk.
The moment the three people left, the drinkers in the tavern obviously relaxed.
Even the storyteller wiped the sweat from his forehead and raised his voice a bit.
On the street, Xiao Zhan walked in front and said to Qiu Ya and Qiu Ling who were following behind:
"Tasting wine means savoring all the flavors of life."
"Tasting wine in a big restaurant is a taste of the prosperity of the world."
"Tasting wine in a tavern like this will taste the sweet, sour, and spicy."
"If you drink wine with stories, you will know what life is like."
These words made Qiu Ya fall into deep thought.
Qiu Ling burped and asked in a low voice:
"Master, the life you have led
, what does it taste like? Is it sweet or bitter? "
Xiao Zhan chuckled:
"It's plain."
