Master Xuanyun stopped him at this moment:
"Why are you so anxious? You usually don't seem to care about a few disciples. Now something really happened to your disciple, and you are so restless. I really don't know what you are pretending to do!"
Take it, remember to return it, otherwise I won't be able to explain to those guys. "
Master Xuanyun said as he threw an object and it fell into Xiao Tianxiong's hand. It was a scale the size of a palm. There was an inexplicable brilliance flowing on the scale. At first glance, it was not a mortal thing.
It was the reverse scale left behind by the green dragon before it left the Yuxu Gate after it transformed into a dragon.
When Xiao Tianxiong caught the scales, Master Xuanyun said again:
"Although your cultivation is already at the top of the world, you still need to be more careful. Longzhou is no better than other places. The strength of those old dragons cannot be underestimated. Even you may not be able to defeat them together.
It's a pity that several junior disciples and I have to guard the mountain gate to prevent the Demon Sect from doing anything during this period. Yun Gui is not inside the gate either, and the other young disciples can't help you. You have to rely on yourself for everything. "
Xiao Tianxiong nodded when he heard this and said:
"Thank you, senior brother, for reminding me."
…
Purple Thunder Peak, back mountain.
Bu Xiaotian landed in front of the hut in Gu Qinglin. Yun Ying happened to come out of it. When he saw Bu Xiaotian coming, his face showed joy. He ran to Bu Xiaotian in two or three steps and said:
"Brother Xiaotian, you are here!"
When Bu Xiaotian saw Yun Ying, a smile appeared on his face. He reached out and touched Yun Ying's hair and said:
"Well, Ying'er, several senior brothers and I are going down the mountain to find elixirs to make elixirs for the second senior brother. You have to be good on the mountain."
This was followed by another round of exhortations.
Although Yun Ying is seventeen years old and can be considered an accomplished practitioner, she has always looked like a little girl in front of Bu Xiaotian.
Hearing that Bu Xiaotian was leaving, he was immediately unhappy, but he still nodded and said:
"Well, Ying'er understands. Brother Xiaotian, you must take care of yourself outside and don't get hurt again."
Bu Xiaotian nodded and said:
"I will, and you have to take care of yourself too."
"Um."
Although Yun Ying also wanted to go down the mountain with Bu Xiaotian, she also knew that now was not the time to be willful.
Gu Qinglin was seriously injured in Holy Soul Mountain and has not recovered yet. She wants to stay in the mountain to take care of him.
Watching Bu Xiaotian's back disappear on the road leading to the front mountain, Yun Ying's eyes were full of loss and reluctance.
唳——
As a loud cry sounded, a giant bird with colorful feathers landed in front of Yunying.
It's Cai'er.
Cai'er has become more and more powerful in recent years. Just standing there is a head taller than Yun Ying, and the crown feathers on her head have also become three.
As if knowing that Yun Ying was in a bad mood at this time, Cai'er took the initiative to lower her head and rub Yun Ying's cheek affectionately.
Yun Ying gently stroked Cai'er's crown feathers, feeling very depressed, as if he was talking to Cai'er, and also as if he was telling himself:
"Cai'er, brother Xiaotian will definitely come back safely."
On the front mountain, Bu Xiaotian came to Xiang Yunwen's residence and saw Xiang Yunwen who was already waiting for him.
Xiang Yunwen saw Bu Xiaotian and asked with a smile:
"Junior brother, have everything been settled?"
Bu Xiaotian nodded and said:
"Well, senior brother, let's go."
Xiang Yunwen naturally had no objection and nodded as well:
"Okay, let's set off now."
But then he thought of something again and said:
"But fire spirits are not that easy to find. We are expected to stay in the South China Sea for a long time this time. Let's go to my aunt first. You can say goodbye to her."
Bu Xiaotian didn't expect that his senior brother would think so thoughtfully for him, and he suddenly felt warm in his heart.
He actually had this idea, but it was thousands of miles away from here to the valley where Situ Xue was, and it was not easy. He didn't say it out because he was afraid of wasting time.
Now that Xiang Yunwen took the initiative to bring it up, he obviously guessed what he was thinking.
Bu Xiaotian said gratefully:
"Thank you, senior brother!"
Saying this, he bowed.
Xiang Yunwen raised his hand to support Bu Xiaotian and said with a smile:
"Why don't you thank me? We are brothers. Saying this is too outrageous!"
Bu Xiaotian also smiled when he heard Xiang Yunwen's words.
During these days of getting along, he also knew that Xiang Yunwen was a cheerful person. Although he had just been released from seclusion not long ago, he always regarded his junior brothers as brothers.
The two of them immediately left Purple Thunder Peak with their swords without any further delay, flying all the way east.
Two days later, two streams of light fell in a valley near the eastern boundary of Xuanzhou.
It was Bu Xiaotian and Xiang Yunwen.
There is an inconspicuous small courtyard in the middle of the valley. Situ Xue, wearing ordinary clothes, is sitting in the courtyard, staring blankly at the mountains and forests in the distance. I don't know what he is thinking, but he is walking in front of Xiaotian and Xiaotian. Didn't even notice it was coming.
After she and Yun Ying escaped from the Holy Soul Mountain with Gu Qinglin, she only went outside the Xuyun Mountain Range. After knowing that Bu Xiaotian was fine, she returned here and never left again.
I just sit in the yard and look into the distance every day, waiting for Bu Xiaotian to come back.
When Bu Xiaotian saw Situ Xue, he immediately shouted:
"mother!"
Situ Xue came back to her senses after hearing the voice, with a gentle smile on her face and said:
"Xiaotian is back! Come inside quickly, it's cold outside!"
She didn't ask Bu Xiaotian where he went or what happened after he was separated from them. For Situ Xue now, it was enough for her child to stand in front of her intact.
Bu Xiaotian's eyes heated up slightly when he heard Situ Xue's ordinary words of concern, and he couldn't help complaining:
"Mom, since you know it's so cold outside, why are you still sitting outside?"
Hearing this, Situ Xue just smiled gently and shook her head without saying anything. She looked at Xiang Yunwen and asked:
"Who is this?"
Only then did Bu Xiaotian remember that Xiang Yunwen was still there, and immediately introduced:
"Mom, this is my senior brother, Xiang Yunwen."
Xiang Yunwen cupped his fists and saluted, and said:
"Yun Wen has met my aunt!"
"Oh, it turns out to be Yun Wen."
Situ Xue nodded to Xiang Yunwen and said:
"Have you had a hard time traveling? Go inside and have a rest. I'll get you something to eat."
After saying that, she walked towards the kitchen, just like an ordinary mountain village woman entertaining guests.
Bu Xiaotian looked at Situ Xue's back and was about to speak, but was patted on the shoulder by Xiang Yunwen.
He looked at Xiang Yunwen with some confusion, but saw Xiang Yunwen shaking his head slightly.
When Situ Xue walked into the kitchen, Xiang Yunwen took Bu Xiaotian into the house and said softly:
"You and your aunt spend less time together and more separation. You don't know when you will come back after leaving this time. Let's have a good meal with your aunt first before talking about anything else."
Only then did Bu Xiaotian understand Xiang Yunwen's good intentions. Just as he was about to say thank you, he remembered Xiang Yunwen's words before, and swallowed the words of thanks again.
Not long after, Situ Xue walked in with several plates of food. Bu Xiaotian and Xiang Yunwen, who were chatting, quickly got up, took the food and put it on the table.
Situ Xue waited for the two of them to sit down again before saying with a smile:
"Yunwen, this is your first time here. Try your aunt's cooking."
"good!"
Xiang Yunwen responded with a smile, picked up the chopsticks, picked up some food, put it into his mouth, and quickly praised:
"Hmm~ The food cooked by my aunt is so delicious. I haven't eaten such delicious food in a long time!"
Hearing Xiang Yunwen's praise, the smile on Situ Xue's face became even brighter.
Bu Xiaotian also said proudly:
"My mother's craftsmanship is even better than the master craftsman in Zuixian Tower!"
Hearing this, before Xiang Yunwen said anything, Situ Xue laughed and cursed:
"You kid is not humble at all. Yun Wen was just being polite, but you took it seriously."
Xiang Yunwen smiled and said:
"I think Xiaotian is right. The food cooked by Auntie is indeed more delicious than the one at Zuixianlou!"
Xiang Yunwen's temperament makes it easy for people to get close to him, and when he said such pleasing words, the atmosphere at the dinner table quickly became happy.
During the dinner, Bu Xiaotian briefly talked about what happened during this period, but even if it was too dangerous, he simply passed it by.
When Bu Xiaotian talked about healing with Lan Yunxin, she just listened quietly and said nothing.
When he heard about the tragedy Master Xue had caused in Lingzhou with the Demon Sect's monsters, his face also showed anger, and he cursed the Demon Sect's cruelty.
When he heard that Cheng Yunliang was injured, Situ Xue also showed worry on his face:
"Yunliang is a good boy, gentle and careful. I hope he gets better soon!"
During this period, Xiang Yunwen also said a few words from time to time, but he didn't seem unfamiliar at all.
All three of them enjoyed the meal.
The happy time is always very short, and soon the three of them finished the meal.
After eating, Bu Xiaotian said to Xiang Yunwen:
"Elder brother, I still have something to do."
Xiang Yunwen didn't pay attention and said:
"Go ahead, I'll wait for you here."
Bu Xiaotian said "hmm", then went out and walked to the house on the other side, opened the door and walked in.
A moment later, there was a cold pool underground.
Bu Xiaotian looked at Mo Li lying quietly in the ice coffin and said softly:
"Mo Li, I'm here to see you.
A lot of things happened during this period. I met your father. You don’t have to worry. He is very good. He knows everything and is very sad.
But we finally have a way to wake you up!
Don't worry, as long as we find those things and refine the complete Heaven-Building Pill, we can wake you up.
You must be bored after being here for so long..."
The stone chamber of Hantan echoed with Bu Xiaotian's nagging voice.
In the past few years, every time Bu Xiaotian came back from outside, he would come here and tell Mo Li about his experiences outside during this time.
Half an hour later, Bu Xiaotian returned to the living room where Xiang Yunwen was sitting, and Xiang Yunwen was talking with Situ Xue.
It was finally time to say our official goodbyes.
Bu Xiaotian looked at Situ Xue with a gentle smile on his face and couldn't say goodbye.
Xiang Yunwen had no choice but to tell them their arrangement:
"Auntie, we are going to the South China Sea to look for the fire spirit. We don't know when we will come back.
This time Xiaotian and I are actually here to say goodbye to you. "
When Situ Xue heard Xiang Yunwen's words, the reluctance flashed across her face, but she still said with a smile:
"Well, you must be more careful. Xiaotian, you don't have to worry about me, I will be here waiting for you to come back."
Bu Xiaotian's eyes were a little sour, he nodded and said:
"Well, mother, let's go then. You have to take care of yourself."
"Go ahead, you are an adult now, don't act like a child."
Situ Xue still smiled so gently, as if Bu Xiaotian was just going out for an ordinary trip.
Bu Xiaotian finally left with Xiang Yunwen.
Situ Xue stood in the yard, watching the two people disappear into the sky.
There was still a smile on her face, but her eyes were full of worry.
Feeling a bit of coldness on her cheeks, Situ Xue looked up at the sky, only to find that the distant mountains were covered in silver.
On the eighteenth day of the winter lunar month, there was heavy snow.
