Hey, you are reborn too?

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the two men, with their clothes torn off, lunged forward together and fell directly to the ground. It was truly hilarious to watch.

"Hahahaha!"

The young man in red standing on the high place suddenly laughed out loud with his face raised.

His voice was cheerful and carried a sultry aura: "Master Xie, are you directing your men to put on a good show for me?"

His voice was sharp and carried a majestic aura.

From the moment that person opened his mouth, a violent and irresistible aura enveloped the entire general's mansion without any explanation.

Xie Yongwei's eyelids suddenly started twitching.

The way this person spoke, the style of clothing he wore, and his face were all unfamiliar.

But why did it feel so familiar to her?

"Your Excellency," Xie Shian broke out in a cold sweat at the familiar voice. He quickly clasped his fists and bowed, saying, "Forgive me for my poor eyesight and for not recognizing you just now. I hope Your Excellency will not blame me."

His Holiness?

Memories of Lord Longyin came to my mind.

Xie Yongwei narrowed her eyes.

She tried her best to see the boy's face more clearly, but found that the boy moved.

I don’t know what kind of kung fu the young boy practiced, but his figure was like a ghost, moving at a very fast speed under the scorching afternoon sun. In the blink of an eye, he came to Xie Shian’s side.

Xie Yongwei looked at him steadily, the sound of her heartbeat echoing in her ears.

What kind of kung fu is this? If he wanted to kill everyone present, it would probably happen in an instant.

However, Xie Yongwei frowned slowly. How did he know Xie Shian?

Xie Shian, who was secretly muttered by Xie Yongwei, was also wondering how the Dragon Yin Master appeared? Why did he appear here?

Why didn't the guards notice it before his stone hit them...

Xie Shian came back to his senses immediately after being patted on the shoulder. He himself did not notice that he was still holding the black mask in his hand.

"Thank you, sir," the young man in red blinked, "It's not good to take away your daughter's beloved things without permission, right?"

Xie Shian broke out in a cold sweat after hearing the word "not good".

He subconsciously followed the gaze of Reverend Long Yin and looked at his own hands.

The black mask with gold patterns on the edges was quietly held in his hand.

"Your Excellency," Xie Shian shook the mask in his hand subconsciously, "Are you saying that I should return this mask to my daughter?"

Venerable Long Yin raised his eyebrows, his pair of peach blossom eyes should have been charming but they were surprisingly cold.

He didn't say it explicitly, but everything was implied.

Xie Shian gritted his teeth and put the mask in Xie Yongwei's hand. He frowned, as if he had made a big concession: "Awei, you take it."

Seeing that the mask was in the girl's hands, Venerable Longyin curled the corners of his lips.

Xie Shian did not miss it, but he became more and more confused.

Fortunately, Venerable Longyin did not stay long. He just whispered a word into Xie Shian's ear and then turned and left.

Xie Yongwei pricked up her ears and faintly heard the words "suburbs of Beijing" and "ancient temple".

She was going to keep listening.

The young man in red took a step back, his peach blossom eyes slightly narrowed, as if they were quenched with ice, and he said "Goodbye" coldly and mercilessly, then jumped onto the eaves.

Xie Yongwei raised her eyes to look, but was unable to open them because of the shininess of the sun.

I just felt the red dress swaying in front of my eyes, like a maple leaf.

"Master," it was the captain of the guard who broke the silence, "Do you want to chase after me?"

Xie Shian's face turned pale, his eyes were filled with suspicion, and he raised one hand: "Don't chase."

The crimson sleeves seemed to still flutter before her eyes. Xie Yongwei slowly exhaled, and then she heard Xie Shian calling her, "Awei."

Hearing this, Xie Yongwei looked up.

Xie Shian took out a box from somewhere. Although his face was not good, he still smiled and said, "This is a birthday gift from Daddy for you."

"Thank you daddy!"

Xie Yongwei accepted it readily, thinking that it contained nothing but gold, silver and treasures.

A farce has ended. The "missing" Xie Yongwei returned on her own initiative. Xie Shian looked exhausted and didn't want to worry about it anymore.

He stared at the black mask for a long time, and finally gave in: "Awei, since the Venerable asked you to take it, you should take it well."

Xie Yongwei asked, "Who was that man in red just now?" Was it Venerable Longyin?

Looking at those pure eyes, Xie Shian couldn't bear to deceive them after all.

"It's Venerable Long Yin, a well-known figure in the martial arts world. You are still young, so it's normal that you don't know him."

"Reverend Longyin?" A scream suddenly came from the side. It was Xie Yongxuan.

His eyes suddenly widened: "Why is he different from the last time I saw him? Not only his face, clothes, but even his stature has changed?"

Xie Shian looked even more surprised than him: "Have you ever met His Holiness?"

Without thinking too much, Xie Yongxuan told the truth: "Venerable Longyin saved Awei and me, and even escorted Awei all the way to the Medical Immortal Valley."

"Hey, hey, hey," Fu Mei saw that the atmosphere was starting to get weird, and smiled and changed the conversation, "What are you all doing crowding in Awei's yard?

"If you want to talk, find a place to talk."

As she spoke, she had a smile on her face, but her hand directly pinched the soft flesh on Xie Shian's forearm.

"Hiss..." Xie Shian suffered multiple physical blows in one day. Although the injuries were not great, they made him even more exhausted.

Looking at his wife's eyes, he suddenly had an epiphany.

There are so many people here and there are many eyes, so it's inevitable that there are ears.

After glancing at the guards standing nearby, Xie Shian nodded at Xie Yongxuan and said, "Come with me."

Before leaving, he did not forget to give Xie Yongwei a gentle look: "Awei, take a look at your birthday gift. If you don't like it, tell daddy, daddy will change it."

Weighing the box, it's not heavy.

Xie Yongwei still agreed: "Okay, Daddy, take care."

This caused Xie Yongxuan's dissatisfaction: "Why don't you let me walk slowly too?"

Xie Yongwei added helplessly: "Brother, take care too."

As expected, Xie Yongxuan was hit on the head and went out, "Ouch, ouch," while still complaining in a low voice, "Mom, Dad hit me!"

Fu Mei pursed her lips and said, "You deserve to be beaten."

Seeing that no one was on her side, Xie Yongxuan could only purse her lips and cover her forehead as she walked out.

Xie Yongwei held the box, and the red robe appeared in front of her eyes from time to time.

She looked into Fu Mei's eyes and knew that she couldn't get rid of her with just a few words.

Knowing that she was in the wrong, Xie Yongwei put down the box, made tea for her mother, scolded her for an hour, and then had dinner with her mother before she let it go.

After seeing everyone off, Xie Yongwei held the key given by her father and couldn't wait to insert it into the keyhole.

The key turned without making any sound, but Xie Yongwei's heart was beating inexplicably fast.

She suddenly stopped and looked towards the windowsill.

There was no one there, the cicadas had stopped chirping, and it was very quiet. For some reason, Xie Yongwei walked to the windowsill and closed the window.

Holding a small glass lamp, Xie Yongwei sat on the armchair. When she saw the items in the box clearly, she found that a thin layer of sweat had appeared on the back of her spine.

This ordinary wooden box actually contains a precious treasure - a magnolia branch.

The magnolia branch is not very attractive in appearance. It looks no different from a dead branch, except that it has more lines on it.

If you ask ordinary people to recognize it, eight out of ten will not recognize it.

This is exactly why Xie Yongwei was shocked.

How did Daddy find the magnolia branch so accurately and keep it for so long as a birthday gift for himself?

Slowly closing the wooden box and pulling the key out of the keyhole, Xie Yongwei smiled. This gift was really thoughtful.

However, this magnolia branch has unique effects and is particularly precious.

It might take some effort to preserve it.

Xie Yongwei picked up the wooden box again, looked around, and after confirming that there was no one around, she gently pressed the secret compartment beside the bed.

"Click——"

The sound was very small, but it was very clear in the quiet room.

Holding her breath, Xie Yongwei slowly bent over and solemnly placed the wooden box under the cracked bed board.

"Miss," a soft call followed by a knock on the door was heard. It was Dong Qing, "Someone is coming from the master's place."

Xie Yongwei pressed the secret compartment again.

"Click..." As the bed board slowly closed, the things under the bed also slowly disappeared without a trace.

Seeing that the existence of Magnolia Branch was completely hidden, Xie Yongwei knocked on the small table and said, "Come in."

The person brought a letter from Xie Shian.

Xie Yongwei took the letter, rewarded the messenger with some silver, and asked the maids to send the messenger away safely.

After dismissing the attendants and dimming the glass lamp, Xie Yongwei sat down, opened the letter and read it carefully.

"My dear daughter, Awei, are you happy with your birthday gift? I would like to choose another day to hold your birthday. Are you willing? Keep the black mask safe and stay away from the Medical Immortal Valley."

Xie Shi'an never liked to talk nonsense, and his letters were just like him, concise and clear.

Xie Yongwei tapped the table lightly.

I heard from the man who delivered the letter that my father originally wanted to come to my yard and talk to me in person, but someone from the palace came to invite him and he was in a hurry to go to the palace, so he just left the letter in a hurry and sent someone to deliver it.

There is no need for Xie Yongwei to celebrate her birthday again.

If dad asks about it tomorrow, just find a reason to politely refuse.

But why did Daddy ask me to stay away from Medical Valley?

Her chest suddenly felt a little stuffy. Xie Yongwei swallowed a mouthful of tea, but she still couldn't stop feeling anxious.

After thinking about it, I realized that it was not a solution to keep struggling like this.

Since this matter was brought up by my father, I can just ask him about it when I meet him tomorrow.

Although Daddy is likely to be vague.

Xie Yongwei pressed her heart a few times and figured out what she had been worrying about. The depression in her heart also dissipated, but why was she still so depressed?

She looked outside and saw only the sparse moonlight filtered through.

A large part of it was blocked by a mass of black.

Xie Yongwei suddenly realized that she had just closed the window and forgot to open it. Without the night breeze blowing in, the room was naturally stuffy.

She stood up, walked to the window and gently opened it.

"Squeak..."

The wooden window was slowly opened, and a cool night breeze soaked with dew rushed in impatiently.

Xie Yongwei closed her eyes and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.

But soon, she stopped laughing.

A voice came from nowhere.

"Awei..."
