Chapter 340 Meet Again
Just as Xun'er was about to leave this elegant attic, an inexplicable throbbing suddenly surged in her heart, causing her movements to slow down involuntarily. In her mind, a figure that she missed day and night suddenly flashed across her mind.
"Miss, what happened?" Mr. Lin noticed Xun'er's strange behavior and asked with a hint of doubt.
Xun'er pondered for a moment, gently held her chin with her slender fingers, and then said: "Mr. Lin, let's put our plan to Yecheng aside for now. I have to go out first."
"Understood, miss." Although Mr. Lin didn't know why Xun'er suddenly changed his plan, he knew that as a subordinate, he only needed to follow the miss's instructions. "Do we need all of us to act together?"
Xun'er shook his head and said softly: "No need to bother, Mr. Lin, just come with me. The others will stay here and wait."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xun'er's figure disappeared from the place as lightly as a gust of wind, drifting away into the distance.
Upon seeing this, Mr. Lin immediately took steps forward without any hesitation, followed closely behind...
……
In the distant horizon, a slender black shadow cut across the sky, speeding past with a slight sound of breaking wind.
Above the black shadow, a man stood proudly. The strong wind blew his blue hair back, but it still could not shake his straight and pine-like figure.
Xiao Ling gently touched the yin-yang Pisces jade pendant on her neck, thinking to herself, "Why does this Lingxi pendant suddenly react? Could it be that there is something nearby that can resonate with it?"
Four days have passed since I left Yecheng. Relying on the astonishing speed of Rayquaza, Xiao Ling was now an unknown distance away from Yecheng.
As Xiao Ling moved forward in the direction of the initial mysterious feeling, that feeling became stronger and stronger. This also made Xiao Ling figure out that this reaction came from the Lingxi pendant he had obtained before.
Although Xiao Ling was confused by this sudden feeling, his intuition told him that it shouldn't be a bad thing. So he decided to follow the feeling and move on.
Just as he was thinking this, Rayquaza had already taken him flying over a peach forest. Xiao Ling's eyes were firmly attracted by the scenery below. The peach forest there is like a pink ocean. Under the gentle breeze of spring, the flowers sway gently and the petals flutter in the wind. It is as beautiful as a dream.
"Haha, such a beautiful peach forest is really rare to see," Xiao Ling chuckled, looking back from the boundless pink ocean. "But now, I still have business to do, otherwise it would be quite pleasant to take a walk here." He smiled slightly and shook his head with a bit of regret.
Just when he was about to move on, the yin-yang Pisces jade pendant around Xiao Ling's neck suddenly flickered. This time the halo was brighter than before, and it immediately attracted Xiao Ling's attention.
Immediately, a strong feeling surged in his heart, as if something was quietly calling him.
"What's going on? Am I already close to the place where my jade pendant reacts?" Xiao Ling murmured to himself, with curiosity and excitement shining in his eyes, "I want to see what kind of treasure is there. Trouble.”
With this in mind, Xiao Ling gently patted the neck of Karakura and gave the command to descend. Rayquaza understood it, and it turned gracefully in the air, and then slowly landed towards the peach forest.
As the height decreases, the details of the peach forest become clearer and clearer. Each peach blossom is like a carefully carved work of art, which makes people want to get close.
In the depths of the peach forest, I found an open space, and Rayquaza hovered in this open space and slowly landed.
Xiao Ling jumped down lightly, and her toes touched the soft lawn and falling peach petals, as if she were stepping on a pink velvet carpet.
With a slight tremor, Rayquaza's figure gradually shrank, and finally turned into a small figure over one meter long, happily surrounding Xiao Ling.
Xiao Ling took out some pills carefully refined with eighth-grade medicinal materials from Najie and handed them to Rayquaza. He touched Karakura's head and said with a smile, "You have worked hard these days on the road. This is the reward you deserve."
Rayquaza naturally understood Xiao Ling's words and rubbed Xiao Ling's cheek affectionately with his head, obviously in a very happy mood.
The sun shines through the gaps in the peach blossoms and shines on Xiao Ling's face, making it look warm and soft. He took a deep breath of the flower-scented air and couldn't help but feel relaxed.
Rayquaza hovered happily beside Xiao Ling, sniffing the petals on the ground with his nose from time to time, seeming to be novel about everything here.
After some teasing, Xiao Ling led Kuang Zao in the peach blossom forest, and started walking along the vague feeling.
In the peach blossom forest, the scenery is pleasant. The pink petals are gently swaying with the breeze. The sunlight shines through the treetops and onto the forest paths, forming mottled light and shadow. The stream in the forest is gurgling, and occasionally you can see a few monsters playing in the forest.
On a leafy peach tree, a scarlet snow rabbit was curled up on a thick branch and taking a nap. Its furry body rises and falls gently with its breathing, and its ears are playfully covered with a few pink peach petals, making it look absolutely adorable.
Not far away, a stag deer was leisurely foraging on the grass, chewing the fresh grass leaves.
When its eyes met Xiao Ling and Rayquaza, it just raised its head, looked at them curiously with its big clear eyes, and then continued to enjoy its lunch, seemingly not too worried. These two uninvited guests.
Xiao Ling had no intention of disturbing the tranquility. They continued to move forward slowly along the weak feeling. The scenery of the peach blossom forest also changed accordingly, sometimes wide and sometimes deep.
Although Xiao Ling's attention was attracted by the beautiful scenery around him, he was always thinking about that mysterious feeling. It was like an invisible compass, leading him forward.
After walking for a while, Xiao Ling found that the feeling was getting stronger and stronger, as if they were approaching a certain destination. His curiosity was gradually aroused. He didn't know what kind of existence could cause such a strong reaction in his Lingxi Pendant.
When they passed through the dense peach blossom forest, their eyes suddenly opened up, and a small lake surrounded by peach blossoms appeared in front of them. The lake is crystal clear, with a few peach blossoms floating on the surface, like a beautiful picture.
Beside the lake, sitting on a huge stone, was a woman wearing a blue dress. Her back was to Xiao Ling, her long black hair was hanging down like a waterfall, and she was holding a slender bamboo flute in her hand. The woman's figure looks particularly otherworldly against the background of peach blossoms.
Xiao Ling stopped and was secretly surprised. Could this woman's appearance be the reason for Lingxi Pei's reaction? But this figure from the back feels familiar.
He was about to step forward to ask, but the woman seemed to sense his arrival and slowly turned around, revealing a beautiful face. There was a faint smile in her eyes, as if she had been waiting here for a long time.
Xiao Ling's eyes met the woman's. At that moment, time seemed to stand still and all the sounds in the world disappeared.
His heartbeat accelerated involuntarily, and a trace of incredible surprise flashed in his eyes. Isn't that familiar face, that silhouette that he missed day and night, exactly the person in his heart?
"Xun'er...?" Xiao Ling's voice trembled with disbelief, his heartbeat accelerated at this moment, and a complicated light flashed in his eyes.
A flash of excitement also flashed in Xun'er's eyes. She stood up gently. After many years of separation, they were finally reunited. Her heart was filled with complex emotions, joy, surprise, and emotion intertwined together.
All these emotions gathered at the corner of her mouth and bloomed into a gentle smile, just like the spring breeze gently blowing across the lake, creating layers of delicate ripples.
"Brother Xiao Ling, long time no see..." Her voice was soft and full of emotion, like gently falling petals in the peach blossom forest, gentle and with a touch of indescribable tenderness. The two people's eyes met, as if they had crossed the river of time in an instant and returned to those past times full of laughter.
Warmth surged in Xiao Ling's heart. He quickened his pace and took a few steps forward. His figure flashed several times and he was already standing in front of Xun'er.
"Xun'er, I really didn't expect to meet you here. Did you already know that I would come here?" Xiao Ling asked with a hint of curiosity and surprise. His voice was full of the joy of an encounter and a hint of disbelief.
"I originally heard in the clan that you went to Yecheng, and I was planning to go find you..." Xun'er had a playful smile in the corner of her eyes, "But on the way, I suddenly had an indescribable feeling. , it seemed that you would come to me. So I changed my mind and came here directly. I thought I missed you too much, but I didn’t expect you to actually appear in front of me."
Xun'er said, gently pushing a strand of hair from her forehead behind her ears, with a shy blush on her face, "Brother Xiao Ling, tell me, do we have a tacit understanding?"
< br>
Xiao Ling laughed softly. He stretched out his hand and gently stroked Xun'er's cheek, "Maybe, Xun'er. But it's really great to meet you here..."
Xun'er gently held Xiao Ling's hand, her eyes showing deep attachment and reluctance, "Me too, brother Xiao Ling. There is not a day when I don't miss you when I leave."
Although her voice was light, it was full of emotional weight, as if every word carried her thoughts and expectations.
The sun shines through the gaps in the peach blossoms and shines on Xiao Ling and Xun'er's faces, making them look warm and soft. The two stood opposite each other, staring deeply into each other's eyes, as if they wanted to carve each other into their hearts. In those days when we lost contact, our longing and concern for each other turned into a silent embrace at this moment.
Xiao Ling gently held Xun'er's waist and hugged her tightly, feeling her body temperature and heartbeat. At this moment, all the thoughts of separation turned into repeated joy.
Xun'er's cheek was pressed against Xiao Ling's chest. Listening to his strong heartbeat, there were faint tears in her eyes, but there was a happy smile on her lips.
A gust of breeze blew by, causing the peach blossom trees to rustle. Countless pink petals danced in the wind and fell on their shoulders, like the gentlest embellishment in the world.
On the lake, the petals float gently, swaying gently in the breeze, as if they are also rejoicing in this long-awaited reunion.
The two hugged each other tightly for a while, until the excitement in their hearts subsided slightly, and then they reluctantly separated.
At this time, Rayquaza flew to the two of them and circled around them, as if celebrating their reunion.
Then, Rayquaza gently landed next to Xun'er, rubbed Xun'er's cheek with its soft head, and expressed its longing for her affectionately.
"Raquaza, we haven't seen each other for a long time. It seems that you have been doing well these days, and you are almost breaking through to Dou Zun." Xun'er looked at Rayquaza, with a trace of nostalgia in his eyes.
When Raquaza was still a little kid, apart from his master Xiao Ling, the most attached person was Xun'er. At that time, most of its food was carefully fed by Xun'er, a "rich woman".
Xun'er stretched out her hand and gently stroked Rayquaza's smooth head, and Rayquaza let out a cry of pleasure, seeming to respond to Xun'er's touch.
Xun'er gently held Xiao Ling's hand, and the two of them walked towards the big flat stone by the lake. They sat side by side, Xun'er naturally snuggled into Xiao Ling's arms, and Xiao Ling hugged her. Their figures looked particularly warm in the afterglow of the setting sun.
Leaning in Xiao Ling's arms, Xun'er turned her head slightly and cast a subtle look at a hidden corner by the lake.
There, Mr. Lin was guarding silently. His figure almost blended into the surrounding environment and was not easy to be found.
Noticing Xun'er's gaze, Mr. Lin understood it, nodded slightly, and then left quietly, leaving a private world for the two of them.
Mr. Lin knew in his heart that with the strength of his young lady, it made little difference whether he was by his side to protect her or not. After all, if the lady uses her trump card, she might not be her opponent.
Xun'er's little moves naturally did not escape Xiao Ling's eyes. He smiled softly and asked casually: "Xun'er, is that your bodyguard hiding over there?"
Xiao Ling had naturally noticed the Dou Zun strongman hiding in the dark, but because he had guessed the other party's identity before, he never mentioned it before.
"As expected of Brother Xiao Ling, you actually discovered Mr. Lin. It's really amazing..." Xun'er chuckled, with a hint of ridicule in her tone.
Xiao Ling shook his head gently and said with a hint of helplessness, "Well, after all, I am also a genuine eighth-level alchemist. Although my cultivation has not exceeded Dou Zun, my soul perception is still very keen. ”
He paused and then said, "By the way, you girl should have broken through to Dou Zun. This talent is really terrifying..."
Xiao Ling used her soul perception, but failed to detect Xun'er's true cultivation. She thought there must be something hidden in her body that concealed her aura.
However, once the two of them got close, Xiao Ling could clearly feel the powerful fighting spirit emanating from Xun'er's body, and that power seemed to have surpassed his current level. So it can be seen that Xun'er has indeed broken through to the Douzun realm.
Xun'er blinked his eyes, a look of pride flashed in his eyes, "That's natural. I have worked very hard in the family in the past few years. However, brother Xiao Ling, don't underestimate yourself. If you can do what you did in the Jiama Empire, The remote place where we are now is step by step, and Brother Xiao Ling is already very good.”
"Not only has he reached the Nine-Star Douzong now, but he can also refine eight-grade and four-color elixirs. If Xun'er and brother Xiao Ling were to change their situations, they would definitely not be as good as brother Xiao Ling. The Xiao family, who is down and out, will definitely suffer because of brother Xiao Ling. , and re-emerged.”
After receiving Xun'er's affirmation, Xiao Ling couldn't help but sigh. Once this girl Xun'er starts practicing seriously, her talent for divine bloodline is simply incredible, and her training speed is simply jaw-dropping. At the age when ordinary people have just condensed the cyclone of Dou Zhi, they have already reached a height that many people will find difficult to reach in their lifetime.
If Xun'er hadn't stayed in the Northwest Continent for so long, with her talent, although it might not be comparable to the astonishing speed of Xiao Xuan, the ancestor of the Xiao family, who broke through Dou Zun at the age of fifteen, but to reach that level before adulthood, it would be It shouldn't be difficult for her.
"Haha, I don't need you to comfort me anymore. Don't worry about me. I know I will catch up with you sooner or later. You little girl, you have to work harder. Don't let me overtake you one day." Xiao Ling said gently He scratched Xun'er's nose and said half-jokingly.
"Hehe, then I have to work harder. I will never let you, brother Xiao Ling, have a chance to surpass me." Xun'er twisted in Xiao Ling's arms with a confident smile on her face.
Then, Xun'er's expression became serious, and she asked curiously: "Brother Xiao Ling, can you tell me what interesting things you have experienced in these years?"
After hearing this, Xiao Ling didn't deliberately hide anything. He began to tell Xun'er everything he could about his adventures over the years in a relaxed manner. As for the affairs of the Little Medical Fairy and the others, he simply mentioned it without going into too much detail.
Xun'er nestled in Xiao Ling's arms and listened very attentively. As Xiao Ling narrated, she seemed to have followed him through the ups and downs of his journey.
"I really didn't expect that Senior Sister Zi Yan is actually a descendant of the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan. Information about the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan is rarely known even in our clan." After listening, Xun'er nodded thoughtfully. , said to himself.
"Yes, I was quite surprised when I first learned that Zi Yan was from the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan." Xiao Ling nodded and agreed casually.
Immediately, an inexplicable light flashed in Xun'er's eyes, the corners of her mouth raised slightly, and she said in a playful tone: "However, it is really surprising, the little doctor fairy and Qing Lin have been following you, brother Xiao Ling. , and looking at their current strength, they have improved so quickly. Brother Xiao Ling, you must have put a lot of thought into them, or maybe you have some evil intentions towards them..."< br>
