Chapter 56: Being Remembered by the Two Miao Sisters' Jade Face!
"Look at you, you're the elder of our Xuan Shi Association, Sun family's green-haired turtle wouldn't dare to do anything to you, at most he'll just beat you up badly, so don't worry, go with confidence!" Yu Lin encouraged, but in his heart, he wasn't thinking that way. In fact, he was hoping that Sun family's long-haired turtle would chop off Wang Lao's head! As for why... Hehe, it can only be understood and not expressed!
"Chairman, I really don't dare to go alone... waaah..." Wang Lao said, and then he started crying, his pitiful appearance would make people who didn't know the situation think that he had been bullied.
"This is not easy to handle!" Yu Lin furrowed his brow, and his handsome face was filled with difficulty!
"Alright, Elder Wang! Why don't you go ask the other elders yourself? See who's willing to accompany you. If someone wants to go with you to the Sun family, I won't stop them. However, if no one is willing to go with you, then I also can't force them. What do you say?" Yu Lin thought for a moment before continuing, his words implying that he was a considerate and understanding leader who wouldn't impose on others.
Still not? Elder Wang secretly resented, you said you wouldn't force them, so why must you force me to go? Hmm... this is clearly self-contradictory! Moreover, he couldn't understand, wasn't the President just released from prison? He shouldn't have any leverage in the President's hands, right? Why would the President want to scheme against him like this? Thinking of this, he stole a glance at Yu Lin, then shifted his gaze towards the other Elders...
The elders present, seeing his searching gaze, all turned their heads to the other side without exception, adopting an attitude of ignoring his plea for help. Anyway, as the president said, they wouldn't force them to accompany the unlucky Elder Wang to the Sun family, so they weren't afraid. However, since everyone was working together, it wasn't good to make things too awkward either. Therefore, pretending to be ignorant was the best choice!
"Old Chen, come with me!" Wang Lao saw that no one was paying attention to him, so he had to speak up and call out someone's name. Humph! You people who don't know the meaning of loyalty, you think you can hide? I won't let you have your way, so he called out the first person who was usually closest to him among the elders!
"Elder Wang, although I'd like to accompany you, I'm really sorry, but these past few days have been inconvenient for me and it's not suitable for me to travel. Otherwise, it would bring disaster upon you!" The named Chen Chang Lao's face was full of difficulty as he spoke, thinking to himself... going to the Sun family is definitely not a good errand! Whether or not they can return alive is uncertain, how could he possibly be willing to accompany the Elder Wang who is disliked by the president to send him to his death?!
"It doesn't matter, I don't mind." Wang Chang said with a bit of gritted teeth, humph! They boasted about their good relationship all the time, but Chen Chang actually didn't give him any face, he was furious in his heart!
"But I mind! If something happens to me alone, it's nothing, but if it drags you down too, I'll feel guilty for the rest of my life." Old Man Chen hastily said.
"Heh heh, Elder Wang, since Elder Chen is not convenient, then don't force him either. Ask the other Elders instead! Maybe someone will be willing to accompany you on a trip!" Yu Lin spoke out before Elder Wang could say anything, his words made the extremely unwilling Elder Chen let out a huge sigh of relief, but it made Elder Wang extremely depressed and annoyed!
"Liu Changlao, come with me!" Wang Changlao saw that the elder who usually had a good relationship with him was no longer reliable, so he could only seek help from the elder who didn't get along with him, hoping that one of them would be a just and righteous person willing to accompany him on a trip to Sun's house.
However, his calculations were wrong. Liu Changlao didn't even bother to acknowledge him and instead closed his eyes, pretending to be asleep. Seeing this, Wang Changlao was so angry that he almost spat out blood!
"Looks like you're the only one who can deliver the message, Elder Wang!" Yu Lin said with a hint of helplessness. Alas! In fact, he sympathized with Elder Wang, because in his opinion, it was all due to Elder Wang's poor relationships that no one was willing to share difficulties with him!
"Alas! Alright then, I'll set off for the Sun family tomorrow." Wang Zhang said with a stiff upper lip, but in his heart he was bleeding!
"Don't wait until tomorrow, you can set off now." Yu Lin urged somewhat anxiously.
"Hmm! President, it's already late today. If I leave now, I'll have to sleep on the streets tonight." Elder Wang reminded him, wu... He really didn't know where he had offended the president, why was he in such a hurry to drive him away!
"Oh, then stay overnight and set off early tomorrow!" Yulin said, looking at the sky.
"Yes, that's all. I'll go take a rest first." Elder Wang said with a sigh, alas! He didn't dare to stay any longer, otherwise, he didn't know what other tricks the chairman would come up with to deal with him, so it was better for him to disappear from in front of the chairman as soon as possible.
"En, Great Elder, you all go down and rest too!" Yu Lin nodded his head and said to the Great Elder and others.
"Chairman, we'll take our leave first." The Grand Elder slightly bowed and said, then led the other Elders out of the side hall.
As the elders of the Xuan Shi General Assembly left, Leng Ruo Xue openly sized up Yu Lin and said frankly that at first she thought Yu Lin was a senile old man! However, Yu Lin's performance just now made her realize his dark belly and protective shortness. Alas, it seems like another old man who likes to pretend!
"Little girl, you're staring at me so intently that it's making me feel embarrassed!" Yu Lin said with a thick face, his handsome face still revealing a shy expression as he felt Cold Snow's inquiring gaze!
Uh! Cold as snow sweat, crazy sweat. She took back her previous evaluation of Yulin. This guy is just a disconnected old man, and he's often disconnected, occasionally normal old man.
"Old man, I wasn't paying attention to you, don't flatter yourself." Leng Ruo Xue said somewhat helplessly, sighing. This old man is still so familiar! Previously it was Miss Leng, now suddenly it's Little Girl!
"What do you call me? Old... old man? Am I that old?" Yu Lin heard Leng Ruo Xue's address, got a bit angry, and stared at her with tears in his eyes, full of resentment!
"Your appearance may look young, but your age is that of an old man!" said Leng Ruoxue with great certainty.
"We don't care about age, only appearance." Yu Lin said with a sly smile... He was determined not to be called an old man, otherwise, it would have been a waste of all his efforts to maintain himself!
"You're still alive and kicking, so stop making a fool of yourself and losing face. I'm embarrassed for you." The old man, who couldn't bear to watch anymore, spoke up in exasperation.
"Huh? How did you, an old thing, end up here too? When did you arrive?" Yu Lin said with some surprise and curiosity, he hadn't seen this guy earlier! This was a genuine old man indeed!
"Your eyesight isn't good, no wonder!" The old man said with a hint of a smile. He had known Yulin for some time now, so he was very clear about his problem. Yulin often couldn't see other people unless they actively spoke to him!
"Hmm! Heh heh! Heh heh!" Yu Lin dryly laughed twice, trying to cover up his own awkwardness.
"Hmph!" The old man snorted and stopped paying attention to Yulin.
"Little girl, he's the old man, I'm different from him, so don't call me old man, or you'll be calling me old drip!" Yu Lin said very seriously to Leng Ruo Xue.
"But in my eyes, you're also an old man." Leng Ruoxue said stubbornly.
"Little girl..." Yu Lin wanted to say something else, but was interrupted by Leng Ruo Xue!
"Grandfather Du, let's go!" Leng Ruoxue said, glancing at the people around her. After finishing speaking, she stood up and pulled Yao Jiao directly out of the side hall, while the old man and others naturally followed closely behind!
"Little girl!" Seeing Leng Ruoxue leave, Yu Lin hurriedly called out loudly behind her, but there was no response!
"Master, don't call out anymore! Let's rest early today!" Lan Meng said as he followed behind Leng Ruo Xue and the others, leaving...
Leng Ruoxue and others left the Xuan Shi General Assembly and returned directly to the Carefree Building.
After returning to her own room, Leng Ruoxue took Yougui and Wu with her into the ring!
"Sister!" Qing Jue appeared in front of Leng Ruo Xue and others.
"Green jades, what are they doing?" asked Leng Ruoxue, seeing her beasts gathering together, couldn't help but ask curiously.
"Hmm! Da Mao and Er Mao have suffered a bit of a blow, so everyone is comforting them." Qing Jue explained.
"What kind of blow did they suffer?" Cold Snow and the others had question marks all over their faces. Those two bears had been staying in space, so it shouldn't be possible for anyone to bully them! Moreover, they were Super Divine Beasts themselves, with formidable strength, so whoever wanted to bully them would have to think twice!
"The head of the Xuan Shi Association, just called that Elder Wang 'bear-like', so they're unhappy now." Qing Jue said somewhat helplessly, sighing! These two bears are still too sensitive.
"Isn't that referring to Elder Wang? What does it have to do with them?" Leng Ruoxue asked somewhat puzzled.
"They think that guy is saying they're stupid!" Qing Jue said, his delicate little face full of helplessness!
"Huh!" Leng Ruo Xue was also speechless. Were Da Mao and Er Mao thinking too much? Yu Lin scolding Wang Chang Lao had nothing to do with them!
"Hehe, Xue'er, your beast is quite interesting." Wu said with a slight smile.
"They're not my pets, they're old troublemakers." Leng Ruoxue reminded, sighing. She really didn't know that the temperaments of these two beasts were similar to whose, and how could they be so unreasonable!
"Aren't they in your space? That's yours." It was a matter of course, but in his eyes, those beasts were equivalent to Xue'er even without the contract, just like his Ice Qilin. If Xue'er encountered danger, the Ice Qilin would help her on its own initiative, without needing his orders!
"Your meaning, Little Ice is also mine!" Leng Ruo Xue looked at the little dog sleeping soundly in her arms and intentionally misinterpreted Wu's words.
"It's almost like that, Bing Qi and you have spent more time together than I have with you!" Wu reminded him, with a hint of complaint in his tone.
"Nothing, have you eaten vinegar?" Lan Ruoxue said calmly.
"I didn't." He hastily denied, how could he be jealous of Xue Er? Uh! Although there was a little bit! But he wouldn't admit it!
"Let's go take a look at Da Mao and Er Mao!" Leng Ruo Xue said lazily, not bothering to see through him, and spoke to Yao Jiao and Wu Tuo.
"Hmm." The two of them slightly nodded and followed Cold-as-Snow to where the beasts were gathered.
"Da Mao, Er Mao!" Leng Ruo Xue called out softly.
"Miss!" The two fluffy creatures lifted their downy heads, their black and shiny eyes gazing at Leng Ruoxue with tears, because they were not Leng Ruoxue's beasts, so they called her "miss" just like Leng Ruoxue's subordinates.
"Huh? Why are you crying? Who bullied you, tell me, I'll deal with them!" Cold-as-snow asked, but in her heart she couldn't help but sigh, Alas! Looking at these two, it seems like they've suffered a great injustice, is it really that serious?
"Miss, we're not that stupid or cowardly, so when you humans scold someone, can't you please leave us bears out of it?! It's really unfair to us!" Da Mao cried out with a sad face.
"Hmm! Big furball! Actually, this really has nothing to do with you guys, so don't think too much about it, okay? Be good!" Leng Ruoxue coaxed with a hint of helplessness.
"You humans often hurt our beast's self-esteem, when scolding others, it's either 'pig' or 'bear', ugh... We just look a bit clumsy, but in fact, we're not stupid at all. What did we do to offend you? Why use us as an insult?! Big Fluff is very indignant, extremely indignant, because back in Wàn Shān City, it often heard itself being innocently scolded! However, at that time, its reaction wasn't as big as now. But since hanging out with Lěng Ruò Xuě's beast friends, it learned that beasts also need self-respect and self-love, can't be bullied or insulted! So, it got angry! If not for being stopped by other beasts earlier, it and Second Fluff would have gone to teach that guild leader a lesson!"
"Hmm! Big Fluffy, let me apologize on behalf of Yu Lin to you all, he really didn't mean it." Leng Ruo Xue said, stroking Big Fluffy's head.
"Miss, I'll teach him a lesson myself!" Da Mao requested, it knew that man was Lan Meng's master, so it didn't want to make things difficult for the miss!
"Dà máo, Yù Lín is Xuán Zūn!" Lěng Ruò Xuě reminded, "Ai! Dà máo's defense is indeed very powerful, but in terms of strength, there is still a gap between him and Xuán Zūn. So, she was worried that Dà máo would not remain calm."
"Miss, I know, I'll join forces with Second Hair to teach him a lesson!" Big Hair scratched his head and said, heh heh, it's not as stupid as it seems, going alone against Xuan Zun! Both Big Hair and Second Hair are fourth-level super divine beasts, equivalent in strength to the human Xuan Huang. With their powerful defense, although they may not be able to defeat Xuan Zun, but giving him a little lesson shouldn't be a problem!
"Alright then! But I don't want any of you to get hurt!" said Leng Ruoxue with great caution.
"Hmm, we'll be careful!" Da Mao guaranteed, with the young lady's consent, he could now let loose and teach that old man a lesson! Heh heh!
"Alas! Poor Yulin!" He whispered with a faint smile, his handsome face full of schadenfreude.
"You seem very happy!" said Leng Ruoxue calmly, after comforting the two of them, they sat down on the stone chairs in front of the Purple Bamboo House.
"I'm certainly happy, but someone might not be so happy! First being bitten by a dog and then getting beaten up by a bear, oh dear! Poor guy!" Wú Mǎn's words were sympathetic, but his tone didn't convey any sympathy at all.
"Master, I'm not a dog!" The icy horned creature, who had been keeping its eyes closed, suddenly opened its icy blue pupils and said with a hint of dissatisfaction... Master is so mean, actually calling it a dog too!
"Haha, Bing Qi, your disguised form is just like a little puppy!" He said with an unquestioning smile.
"I won't pretend anymore!" Bing Qi shouted in a fit of rage, really infuriating Qilin!
"That won't do! Xiao Bing, if you don't disguise yourself, then I won't be able to take you out in the future." Leng Ruo Xue reminded helplessly.
"Wo... I don't want to be treated like a dog!" Bing Qiluo's icy blue eyes were brimming with tears as he looked at Leng Ruxue, his voice filled with grievance.
"Xiao Bingbing, calm down. For those who don't have eyesight, you can just ignore them directly, why bother with them? It's beneath you!" Leng Ruoxue coaxed.
"Hmm, Xiao Xue is right. From now on, whoever calls me a dog, I'll bite them!" Bing Qi said with determination.
"Ah!" Cold sweat dripped from Leng Ruo Xue's forehead as she realized what she had just said. She really didn't mean it that way!
"Hehe, Xue'er, it's getting late, let's get some rest early!" The demon smiled lightly and said to Leng Ruo Xue.
"Good." Leng Ruo Xue hastily nodded, then placed the Ice Horn on the stone table and pulled Yao Jiao away to leave immediately. She didn't dare continue chatting, otherwise she feared that all her beasts would turn into violent beasts!
"Xiao Xue, why did you leave so quickly? I haven't finished speaking yet!" Bing Qi muttered to himself in confusion after seeing Leng Ruo Xue and Yao Nu leave.
"Hey Bing Qi, are you going to bite whoever you see from now on?" someone asked curiously, heh heh, that's really becoming a mad dog!
"Master, when did I say I'd bite someone? What I meant was, whoever calls me little puppy will get bitten!" Bing Qi corrected, wooo... Master is a bad egg!
"Heh heh, Bing Qi, a dog that bites people isn't a good dog!" said Wu Bu Pa Shi.
"Master!" Bing Qi roared, his icy blue eyes glaring fiercely at Wu, and as he glared, a layer of mist actually welled up in his pupils...
"Uh! Bing Qi, I'm going to rest too." Wu Jian hurriedly escaped after making Bing Qi cry...
"Hehe!" Bing Qi saw that the master had run away, and a triumphant smile appeared on his face. The mist in his blue eyes had also disappeared without a trace!
"Little puppy, you're quite the actor!" A white light suddenly appeared and jumped onto the stone table, saying with a hint of provocation.
"Little kitten, you know what? This is called wisdom!" Bing Qi said nonchalantly, with a proud expression still on his face.
"It's not good to bully the master!" Bai Xu reminded.
"It's okay, I'm used to bullying my master at home." Bing Qi said somewhat boastfully.
"Alas! Your master is really pitiful!" Bai Xu's face was full of sympathy, finding a better beast is also very important.
"Kitty, the way I get along with Master is something outsiders won't understand!" Bing Qi said with a hint of nostalgia, closing his eyes.
"Little dog, you can continue bullying your master, I'm going to sleep." Bai Xue said, then jumped down from the stone table and returned to his own room.
"Alas! Not being understood by beasts is also painful!" Bing Qi sighed and then fell into a deep sleep...
The next day, Leng Ruo Xue and Yao Jie left the bracelet and came directly to the living room of the house.
"Xiao Xue Xue, you're up." Lan Meng saw Leng Ruo Xue and Yao Nie, and hastily greeted them.
"Little girl, you can really sleep, it's almost noon." Yu Lin, sitting beside Lan Meng, said with a hint of complaint.
"Was the Jade Association President looking for us specifically?" asked Leng Ruoxue very politely, but in her heart she couldn't help but think: Humph! What business is it of yours whether we can sleep or not? We didn't ask you to wait here for us!
"Of course, little girl, thank you for taking care of my apprentice during this time! And, you called me old man yesterday, why are you calling me Jade Association Head today?" Yu Lin said with a pretended displeasure.
"Yesterday was yesterday, it's a different story now! Besides, you don't have to be so polite. To be honest, we didn't take care of him that much either, he had to pay for his own food and lodging." Leng Ruo Xue said straightforwardly, while also becoming more cautious in her heart, because she always felt like Yu Lin seemed to be hinting at something, hmm! Could there be some kind of trap?
"Little girl, you don't have to be so polite! Even if it's paid for, it's still because of your good care!" Yu Lin said with a smile.
"Yu Hui Chang, since you've already left the pass, there's nothing more for us to do here. We plan to leave Xian Yao City tomorrow." Leng Ruo Xue said directly and to the point, this was also what they had just discussed that morning!
"Want to leave? Little girl, where can compare with Xianyao City?! Why don't you just stay in Xianyao City instead?! This is the sacred place in Master Xuan's heart, and not any ordinary master can settle here!" Yu Lin said with a sly tone, his expression like that of the big bad wolf trying to trick Little Red Riding Hood!
"Thank you for your kindness, Director Yu, but we already have a place to stay and besides, we won't be staying in one place for too long," said Leng Ruoxue, although she wasn't clear about Yu Lin's intentions, but no matter what he was thinking, she wouldn't let him get his way!
"Hmm, little girl, are you talking about Wàn Shān City? Honestly, it's a mess there, and it can't compare to Xiāo Yáo City!" Yu Lin said persuasively, but in reality, he wanted to keep Lěng Ruò Xuě and the others from leaving. He had his own considerations, after all. The current state of the Xiāo Yáo City was quite dire, so he really hoped that Lěng Ruò Xuě could stay in Xiāo Yáo City. Who would have thought that among her subordinates were many powerful Xiāo Huáng? He didn't want to see Lěng Ruò Xuě's power fall into the hands of any family. Although, according to what little Míng'er said, Lěng Ruò Xuě didn't seem to plan on relying on any family, but still, he couldn't shake off the feeling that it wasn't safe to let them leave Xiāo Yáo City.
"We didn't plan on staying in Wanshancheng for long either." Leng Ruoxue said calmly.
"Little girl, where are you planning to live? Tell me, I can help you find a suitable place." Yulin asked with an expectant face.
"We didn't plan to stay in any place for long." Leng Ruo Xue said somewhat helplessly, she was deeply frustrated with Yu Lin's stubbornness. Alas! She had figured it out, this Yu Lin was trying to win her over!
"Little girl, no matter where you want to go for training, you must have a fixed place to live! This way, if you're tired in the future, you'll also have a place to rest! You know, the feeling of home and a guest house is not the same!" Yu Lin Xiao said with emotion.
"Hmm, what Yu Hui Zhang said makes sense." Leng Ruo Xue replied somewhat perfunctorily. Alas! Although Yu Lin's words were not wrong, she had the "乾坤镯" (a magical ring), so for them, it was all the same wherever they went. Even if they had a fixed residence, they might not necessarily live there; at most, it would be just to deceive others.
"Heh heh, in that case, I'll arrange a place for you to stay in Xianyang City. This way, next time you come to Xianyang City, you won't have to stay at an inn!" Yu Lin said with great enthusiasm.
"Alright then!" Leng Ruo Xue replied somewhat reluctantly.
"Hey, come on then! I'll take you to your place right now!" Yu Lin said, standing up with a somewhat impatient tone.
"Huh? So soon?" Leng Ruoxue was speechless, she didn't expect Yu Lin to still be an impatient person!
"I've long been ready, just follow me and take a look." Yu Lin said with a smile, heh heh, the place he arranged for Leng Ruo Xue and others was actually one of the properties of the Xuan Shi General Assembly, and it didn't need to be found on the spot, how could they not be happy!
"Alright, let's go!" Leng Ruoxue and Yao Jiao locked eyes, both seeing the helplessness in each other's faces. They sighed softly, then reluctantly stood up and left Xianyao Tower with Yu Lin...
"Little Snow, I'm really sorry. My master has caused you trouble." Blue Ming said with some embarrassment as he followed Cold Snow and Yao Jie on the road.
"It doesn't matter, it's just a place to live. Considering your face, we can't refuse your master's kindness!" Cold Snow said with a good understanding of human nature. In fact, she wasn't too concerned about it anyway. After all, whether they lived there or not was up to her to decide, and Jade couldn't force them to stay!
"Thank you!" Lan Meng said softly.
"Xiao Lanlan, Da Mao and Er Mao are going to fix your master." Leng Ruoxue hesitated for a moment, but still spoke up. She thought she should let Lan Meng have a mental preparation, so that he wouldn't be heartbroken when he saw his master being beaten later! At the same time, it was also telling Lan Meng not to interfere with this matter!
"Ah! Why?! My master shouldn't have offended them, right?" Lan Meng asked in puzzlement. He really couldn't understand why his master was targeted by those two bears as soon as he left the pass. Alas! Poor Master, what bad luck you've encountered!"
"It's really unfortunate, I've offended someone." Leng Ruoxue said sympathetically and told Lan Meng the whole story. After listening to it, Lan Meng was speechless because he thought his master was truly too unlucky! This is simply a disaster out of nowhere!
"Xiao Xue, can you please spare those two furry paws?!" Lan Meng begged, wailing... He was really afraid that the two bears would beat his master too badly!
"Xiao Lanlan, if your master were to hear you say that, he would definitely be furious! He is the mysterious and powerful Xuan Zun after all! How can you have so little faith in him?! You're actually undermining your own master's authority!" Leng Ruoxue said disapprovingly. In reality, she was quite looking forward to the battle between Er Mao and Yu Lin... hehe!
