Chapter 252: 136. Siblings Sever Ties! Ye Chen Crying For His Mother! Jiang Yuan's Last Sword (7K Large Chapter)_1
Beacon City, in a patch of grass at the outskirts.
The sounds of playful interaction between a young man and woman echoed in succession.
After a long while, an exquisitely handsome, sweat-drenched face popped up: "Let's leave it at that, Yingying..."
"I'm done, really can't go on."
"Eldest Senior Brother... I'm all out, not a single drop left."
Lin Xiao gathered his water law, blending it into his Beiming True Qi, flicked his fingers, and in an instant, he was clean of all sweat.
Then, he summoned another burst of spiritual energy at his palm, about to help his little junior sister get rid of filth, when he suddenly noticed something!
"Yingying, what are you doing!?"
"You can't! You little brat!"
"That's....."
Lin Xiao rushed forward, trying to grab the girl's hands, but he was a step too late!
"Mmm mmm mmm.... Wow, so this is what it tastes like..."
"Whatever, as long as it's Eldest Senior Brother's... Yingying loves it~"
Lu Yingying sat cross-legged, her fair stockings-clad legs overlapping, pursing her cherry lips as if savoring something.
Her adorable face, delicate as sculpted jade, was displaying a somewhat twisted delight at this moment!
"Oh my god, Yingying really sees me as the only first love in her life."
"If she keeps obsessing like this, one day if I run off with another woman, won't she just chop me to pieces?"
Lin Xiao's body trembled, his mind conjuring some terrifying scenes.
"Xiao'er, Yingying, are you two nearby?"
Right at that moment, a familiar woman's voice faintly reached their ears!
"It's Master!"
Lin Xiao and Lu Yingying exchanged a glance, both instantly realizing.
She was using a Communication Talisman reserved for Qinglan Sect inner sect disciples for secret contact, with restrictions applied. It was secretive enough, but didn't cover a wide area!
In other words....
Master was close by!
With this in mind, Lin Xiao quickly swept up Lu Yingying's petite body, tidied her up like dressing a doll.
The next moment.
The grass rustled, sand and pebbles danced—an overwhelming blast of sword qi swept in!
Then, a streak of verdant sword-light descended from the sky, solidifying into a tall, graceful figure!
"Master, Yingying is fine now."
Lin Xiao took Lu Yingying's little hand, looking completely composed.
"Mm-hmm, that's good."
Xiao Hongling examined her little disciple. Her face, now radiating with blush like the glow of spring, was a world apart from her earlier sobbing.
With that, Xiao Hongling finally relaxed.
"Yingying, you're still young, you don't understand the matters between men and women. Your Eldest Senior Brother is already an adult, and adults will naturally start families someday."
Xiao Hongling strode over with her long black-stockinged legs and scooped Lu Yingying into her embrace, gently comforting her: "It's all right. Even if your Eldest Senior Brother marries Senior Sister Yurong, he'll still be your Eldest Senior Brother, nothing will ever change."
She forced herself to muster a motherly smile.
"Master, Yingying isn't a child anymore, you know."
Lu Yingying didn't refuse the hug, nestling her head into Xiao Hongling's ample bosom, playfully sticking out her tongue, "Who knows... maybe I know even more about adult stuff than Master~"
As she spoke, she glanced flirtatiously, her big round eyes gleaming, at the handsome young man in white standing behind her.
He's the one who made her an adult!
"The hell!"
"She's starting again!"
"Judging by that look: certified little troublemaker!"
On the other side, Lin Xiao was bracing himself, terrified this little devil might blurt out something incriminating.
He quickly stepped forward, switching topics: "Master, the Evil Extreme Sect forces have already retreated without a fight. Beacon City, this strategic point, is now under Xuan'er's control. The situation seems stable for now. What do you intend to do next?"
Xiao Hongling had thought her beloved disciple was still mad at her, but hearing this, joy flooded her heart. She said: "I came here looking for you, but who would've thought I'd witness you subduing the Evil Extreme Sect and rendering such great service to the Righteous Path! I've already sent a Flying Letter about the situation to the Sect Leader and the Chairmen. I'm sure when you return, you'll reap their rewards."
"Rewards don't matter. I only want to ask one thing."
Lin Xiao met her beautiful phoenix eyes, using the Communication Secret Method, enunciating each word: "Master, have you made up your mind? Regarding what's in your heart."
"W-what?"
Xiao Hongling was taken aback.
Then, her flawless, snow-white, regal face flushed bright red. She instantly ducked her head, suddenly losing the nerve to face him!
She knew perfectly well what her disciple meant!
But....
To defy tradition, face the stares of sect sisters and brothers, to fight her own female disciple for a lover....
And that lover, was a young man she'd raised herself, once seen as her own child!
This....
Xiao Hongling really couldn't do it!
"All right, Master, I understand. I'll never ask you about this again for as long as I live."
Lin Xiao sighed to himself, though his face stayed calm: "So, Master, you still plan to have me marry Yurong as soon as possible, right?"
"I..."
Xiao Hongling pursed her lips, her phoenix eyes flicking over to Lu Yingying. "Yingying, do you want your Eldest Senior Brother to get married?"
"Is Master asking me?"
Lu Yingying's eyes swirled, "Oh, I don't mind! Eldest Senior Brother can marry whoever he wants. Anyway, in the end..."
