Changsheng: Peak at the Beginning

Hao Lingyi had met Xiangliu before when she followed Xuan to Qingshui Town. After all, Xiangliu had tied her up and threatened Xuan, and even almost killed Xuan.

As for when he later attended Hao Ling Jiuyao's return ceremony as Fang Feng Bei, although Hao Lingyi felt that Fang Feng Bei looked familiar, he did not think of Xiang Liu.

Now they meet again in the academy, and Hao Ling Jiuyao specifically mentioned Xiang Liu's name. When Hao Lingyi sees Xiang Liu with white hair again, he can no longer deceive himself.

Hao Lingyi said angrily: "You are Xiangliu, and also Fangfengbei?!"

Xiangliu didn't expect that the first person to discover his dual identities without anyone reminding him would be the spoiled little princess Haoling. He immediately gave a playful smile like Fangfengbei and said, "Yes, I am Xiangliu, the military advisor of Chenrong, and also Fangfengbei, the second son of the Fangfeng family~"

Hao Lingyi was shocked by Xiangliu's flirtatious eyes. He quickly put his hand back behind his back and dared not take it out. After a while, he finally reacted and questioned Xiangliu, "It seems that you have a good relationship with my sister. Then why did you hurt Brother Xuan?"

Xiang Liu did not deny that his relationship with Hao Ling Jiu Yao was OK, but the plan to harm Di Xuan had nothing to do with Hao Ling Jiu Yao. Considering that Hao Ling Yi was now a fellow disciple, Xiang Liu did not mind telling the truth: "Why did you think your brother Di Xuan came to Qingshui Town?"

"He should have said that he came to look for your sister Hao Ling Jiu Yao, but in fact, looking for your sister was just a side job. He had already sneaked into the camp of Chen Rong's army and tried to capture me so that he could return to Xi Yan and ask for credit from the King of Xi Yan."

"Tell me, in this case, why can't I teach him a profound lesson?"

Hao Lingyi had nothing to say. She could neither say that it was wrong for Xuan to plot against Xiangliu, nor could she say that there was anything wrong with Xiangliu's counterattack. After all, her filter for Xuan had been worn away a lot, and now all that was left was her one-sided love between a man and a woman.

Xiangliu saw everything that Hao Lingyi did in the illusion, and he had to admit that although this little princess looked spoiled in the past, she was actually not only not a bad person, but even quite kind, so he was willing to take care of her a little.

Xiangliu turned around and walked ahead, saying to Hao Lingyi without looking back: "Okay, your sister specifically asked me to take care of you, and it is really rare for someone to be admitted to the academy, so don't let down King Hao Ling and your sister."

Hao Lingyi followed closely, pinching her sleeves. Today was the first day of her formal classes. After being reminded by Xiangliu, she, who had not thought much about Xuanxuan to begin with, became even more looking forward to the next class.

And she had accumulated too many doubts in her heart and wanted to seek help.

However, Xiangliu found that the little girl behind him was in a very low mood. He wanted to comfort her, but he didn't know what to say. After all, Hao Lingyi was very different from Fangfeng Yiying. Fangfeng Yiying was so easy to please. A beautiful piece of jewelry or a fresh embroidery pattern would make her very happy. Hao Lingyi was different. They were not familiar with each other, so Xiangliu had to say, "There is a dish of steamed chicken with cordyceps flowers in the cafeteria for lunch today. This dish is relatively light and should suit your taste. You must go to the cafeteria early after class at noon."

Speaking of the academy's delicacies, Hao Lingyi began to drool reflexively, "Steamed chicken with cordyceps flowers~ Although I don't know what cordyceps flowers are, it sounds delicious~"

Xiangliu wanted to say that Cordyceps flower is a kind of orange-yellow fungus, but he was afraid that Hao Lingyi would be embarrassed if he said it, so he just asked Hao Lingyi to look forward to it. After being interrupted by Xiangliu, Hao Lingyi's mood did improve a lot. He was able to discuss with Xiangliu the delicious food he had eaten these days with a smile.

Although Hao Lingyi looks delicate, she is actually quite resilient, so whether she is training her body, practicing, or attending classes, she is very hardworking. The delicious three meals a day have become her only comfort.

On Xiyan's Chaoyang Peak, Hao Ling Jiuyao took great pains to finally help Di Xuan clear the toxins from his body and make up for his lost lifespan. However, Di Xuan was thinking about using her identity to gain benefits for himself, and even harmed his own body, delaying his recovery time, thus delaying Hao Ling Jiuyao's return to the academy.

Hao Ling Jiuyao had discovered long ago that Xuan's recovery was always not as good as she expected, but in her mind, although Xuan had changed from a brother who depended on each other to a hero similar to King Xi Yan, she still had a sense of kinship for Xuan, so she did not think of Xuan as someone who was doing something to herself. She only thought that the power of the Fifth King and the Seventh King had expanded to the point where they even had people on Chaoyang Peak.

In order to solve the problem from the root, Hao Ling Jiuyao also discussed with Xuan Xuan to stage a drama in order to catch those people with ulterior motives who were doing things in the dark.

Hearing this, Xuan felt a little embarrassed, but he was also happy and lucky because Hao Ling Jiuyao never seemed to suspect him. He even got inspiration from Hao Ling Jiuyao and arranged a drama directly on Chaoyang Peak, preparing to deal a heavy blow to the Fifth King and the Seventh King.

Chaoyang Peak is where Xiling Lei and King Xiyan lived separately after their falling out. It can be said that the defense of Chaoyang Peak is not worse than that of Xiyan Mountain. Therefore, as long as the Fifth King and the Seventh King extend their hands to Chaoyang Peak, it will at least arouse King Xiyan's fear.

However, when Xi Xuan arranged this, he misjudged King Xi Yan. He was optimistic that Xi Xuan had the same ambition as himself to unify the wilderness, but he was not optimistic about Xi Xuan's habit of preferring these shady and treacherous means. Originally, he wanted to teach Xi Xuan that it was okay to use some unpresentable means before success, but he could not continue to do so after success. However, he had just started to listen to Xi Xuan's miserable speech, which made him speechless.

What can King Xiyan do if Xuan refuses to learn?

He could even sense that Xuan hated him, and perhaps even hated King Haoling for refusing to offer help.

But he was already very old and couldn't even maintain a youthful appearance. Strictly speaking, he was not several hundred years older than King Hao Ling. King Hao Ling was still as handsome as ever, but he could already see the twilight of his life.

His only two remaining sons, the Fifth Prince and the Seventh Prince, were of no help at all. They could not even suppress the clans within Xiyan, let alone the Central Plains clans left over from the former Chen Rong clan. Therefore, his only choice from beginning to end was only one Xuan.

Hao Ling Jiuyao saw that the Fifth and Seventh Princes had been punished. Although she was not very satisfied that their power had only been weakened a little, she also understood that no matter how bad the Fifth and Seventh Princes were, they were still the biological sons of her cheap grandfather. Since Xuan was not dead, the two of them would definitely not be seriously injured.

After the matter came to an end, Hao Ling Jiuyao was ready to say goodbye and return to the academy, but Xuan invited her to stay for a while because he was about to get married.

Hao Ling Jiu Yao was surprised and delighted. She couldn't help but pull Di Xuan aside and asked, "Brother Di Xuan, are you serious? Are you really getting married? Why is it so sudden? There was no news before."

Seeing that Hao Ling Jiu Yao was so close to him, Xuan Xuan was really happy at the moment, and explained softly: "I have reached the age to get married, but now I not only want the throne of Xi Yan, but also want to fight for the world in the future, so the choice of a wife is particularly important."

"I had my eyes on Miss Chen Rong, but I didn't expect that once I was poisoned, she would stop responding. It was Miss Shuhui, the daughter of the Xu family, who took the initiative to come forward and agree to marry me. The Xu family also expressed their support for me. Now that I am well, the wedding ceremony should be put on the agenda."

Hao Ling Jiuyao directly ignored Chen Rong Xinyue and thought carefully about Shuo Shuhui whom she had met at her own ceremony. Unfortunately, she did not have much direct communication with her. She only remembered that she seemed to have a good relationship with Fang Feng Yiying and was a gentle and generous woman.

Thinking of this, Hao Ling Jiu Yao smiled and congratulated Xuan: "I remember that Miss Shu Hui is a gentle and generous person, and since she is willing to stand up for you when you are weak, it can be seen that she has some courage in her bones. If such a good girl can be my sister-in-law, I won't have to worry about you being alone in the future."
