Young Master Shangguan's performance not only shocked all the guests, but also Lin Xiao who was far away in Blue Moon City was moved.
The sudden sound made Young Master Lin pause as he was about to pour tea.
New cracks appeared on the third barrier again, and she knew exactly what they meant.
At present, Mofeng City, except Uncle Kun, includes almost all the people Lin Xiao cares about.
Destiny is a magical thing. She didn't believe it before, but now she has no choice but to believe it.
From the moment you enter the courtyard, cracks appear one after another, indicating that those relatives and friends are constantly fighting for their own destiny.
And along with the struggle will come unforeseen dangers.
"Girl, how about..." Looking at the obviously abnormal Lin Xiao, Principal Su, holding the communication talisman in his hand, was hesitant to speak.
He had already learned from old friends who attended the ceremony that the current situation in Mofeng City was not optimistic.
"Old man, there are some things that you just need to know yourself. I only care about the results!" Lin Xiao picked up the teapot again and poured a cup of tea for each of them.
Old Su was not fooled by this deliberate display of indifference. He saw clearly that Young Master Lin was standing still like a mountain, holding the teapot with both hands, and there were slight tremors in his hands.
The ripples in the cup are a reflection of the little girl's inner thoughts. She actually cares about the process!
This discovery reminded Principal Su of the conversation about family when they first met.
Lin Yatou might be able to accept the cruel result, but she would definitely not be calm about it.
As a human being, who is born heartless and emotionless?
"Girl, this old man knows you a little bit. Since you've taken this step, you must have a backup plan. Believe in yourself."
Backhand?
Facing the old man's comfort, Lin Xiao smiled gently, "Yes, I am Young Master Lin. No matter how terrible the Wenxian Sect is, we can't be reckless, otherwise, they will just play with themselves in the future."
Hearing these somewhat heroic words, Principal Su was delighted and tried his best to ignore the news he had just received about the arrival of the flying boat.
The fact that the Wenxian Sect would deploy this kind of thing means that they are serious and the situation will become worse.
"Haha, this is the Young Master Lin I know. You are not an ordinary little girl."
Old Su buried his sigh in his heart, praised with a smile, and did not show any abnormality.
But what he didn't know was that Lin Xiao had already guessed the general situation through the reaction in his body.
The old man was not a close elder like Uncle Kun and Old Lin, so naturally he would not understand what those encouraging words just now meant.
Young Master Lin never uses words to elevate herself and belittle others. Once she does so, it means that the situation she is facing is very bad and she needs an outlet to vent her emotions.
Lin Xiao does have a backup plan, but that requires a strong person to keep his promise, and the decision-making power is not in his hands.
Even if the other party can fulfill the contract, the target is only the parents...
The old man and the young man sitting opposite each other had their own thoughts in their minds. They stopped talking and silently emptied the teapot one cup after another.
Until Xiao Mingxuan and Qi Yu, who had left not long ago, both returned, breaking this strange silence.
"Greetings, Senior/Master. Young Master, we..."
After the two men exchanged greetings, they looked at the senior who was sitting upright, intentionally or unintentionally, with hesitation written all over their faces.
How could Old Su not understand what this meant? He glared at his "traitor" with amusement.
However, before he could consciously walk away, Lin Xiao immediately stood up from the stone bench and apologized, "Old man, please sit down for a while, I will go and take care of it."
After expressing his apologies, Young Master Lin threw out a formation plate without hesitation and activated it directly in front of the three people.
Principal Su recognized the forbidden god formation that isolated spiritual consciousness. Since he already knew that Lin Xiao was a Heavenly Soul, he did not look too surprised, but just shook his head and laughed.
But Qi Yu, who saw the young master display his cultivator skills for the first time, and Xiao Mingxuan, who had just arrived in Blue Moon City, felt like their brains were about to explode.
"Young Master, this..."
"Stop talking nonsense and get to the point." In the small formation covering the three people, Lin Xiao interrupted the surprise of his two subordinates.
"Yes."
Qi Yu and Xiao Mingxuan, who had come back to their senses with difficulty, looked at each other and realized that they had the absolute trust of the young master.
From today onwards, they will cross the threshold of becoming our own people and become confidants.
“Young Master, the young man who obtained the Ningzhen Flower has already started to reconnect his spiritual roots, and the location he chose is in a barren mountain not far from Blue Moon City.
That piece of barren mountain is ostensibly unowned, but in reality it is the private territory of the Zhao family, to which Commander Zhao belongs.”
Lin Xiao understood what Xiao Mingxuan said, but for a moment he didn't understand the key point.
What is there in this that would be worth the Third Brother disregarding the Master's face and reporting to me alone?
"Well, then what?"
Facing the young master's inquiring gaze, Qi Yu couldn't help but take a step forward and said solemnly: "Young master, I should have seen that young man, he was at the gate of Lide Middle School.
I suspect..."
"What do you suspect?"
"Mingxuan and I suspect that the spiritual root he wants to connect with originally belonged to you!"
Click, click, click!
A series of movements were heard inside the body, and the barrier instantly became shaky.
This situation made Lin Xiao show his undisguised surprise.
She was completely shocked by her subordinates' speculation, and the reaction of the barrier also confirmed that this speculation was very likely correct.
If that spiritual root really belongs to him, then the unlucky guy has really appeared!
"Old Third, what is the reason for your suspicion?"
reason?
Qi Yu took a deep breath. If he hadn't been worried and taken a look, he wouldn't have recognized that the buyer of the Ningzhen flowers had appeared at the gate of Lide Middle School.
That day, he saw a look of sympathy but disapproval on the young man's face, which was different from that of others.
Although my consciousness was almost blurred at that time, I would never admit my mistake.
After briefly explaining the situation that day, the third in command then revealed the source of the information, Shen Rufeng.
"Young Master, the City Lord has just found his subordinates and told us to keep a low profile recently because the Wenxian Sect has lost an extremely important item and is searching all over the world for it."
"That item, is it a spiritual root?"
"Yes, the city lord is familiar with the captain of the guard who protects the princess of the Great Zhou Dynasty, and thus learned about this matter. He originally did not think that this would have anything to do with us until just now."
After he finished speaking, Xiao Mingxuan on the side immediately added to the story, telling all the rumors about the Wenxian Sect's proposal of marriage.
After figuring out the whole story, Lin Xiao exhaled lightly and asked in a deep voice, "Ningzhen Flower, was it made by the city lord?"
"Yes."
"In other words, City Lord Shen had not realized this when he gave you the things, but he just reminded you of it?"
"This?" Qi Yu was stunned and immediately understood what the young master meant.
The news might not have come from the captain of the guard. This was just an excuse from the city lord. He himself probably just found out about it.
Xiao Mingxuan was also a smart man, and he couldn't help but exclaimed, "Young Master, in that case, the city lord should have just found out about it, and then went to the captain to verify the authenticity of the news."
"Yes, that's reasonable." Lin Xiao nodded, thinking that the couple of his future 'senior brother' were very interesting.
However, the source of the information is not the focus at the moment.
Before this, she was curious about the 'Brother Mu' who seemed to be a poor boy, but with the limited known conditions, she could not make any conclusions.
Now...
"Old Third, Mingxuan, don't interfere with the other party's behavior. If necessary, help if you can without revealing your identity."
After understanding what the young master meant, the two looked at each other again, and then responded in unison, "Understood."
The young master's marriage and betrothal gifts are not something that subordinates should worry about.
With this consensus, they turned around and left after receiving the orders without any delay.
Looking at the backs of the two people, Lin Xiao casually put away the formation plate, and the smile on the corner of his mouth could not be suppressed at all.
She made the trip to Blue Moon City in order to solve her spiritual root problem, and in order to build a career for her elders, she recruited new subordinates, and then there were all kinds of things that happened afterwards.
You reap what you sow, and there is no reward without effort.
As the saying goes, the right time is not as important as the right location, and the right location is not as important as the people. The ancient sages were not deceiving me!
The way of business is to get what each needs.
"Girl, did you get any good news?" When Old Su saw the little girl smile again, he also felt relieved somehow.
After spending these days together, he has come to some realization that both himself and his future junior fellow apprentice will probably have a deeper bond with Young Master Lin.
Lin Xiao turned his head and glanced at the old man who seemed to be in deep thought. He released his spiritual sense in front of the other party and used the art of seeing qi for the first time on a powerful person with extraordinary cultivation.
"Huh, what did you see?"
Of course, Old Su knew what the little girl was doing. Not only was he not angry, but he was looking forward to what he was about to hear.
But Lin Xiao did not satisfy Principal Su's curiosity. After confirming that this was an old senior who was consistent in his appearance and character, he showed a meaningful smile.
"Old man, I dare to take a chance with you."
"How do you bet and what are the stakes?"
Noticing that the old man was in a good mood, Lin Xiao stood with his hands behind his back and looked up at the sky. His body, enveloped by the sunlight, became visibly stronger.
Under the influence of the exercises, the surrounding spiritual energy gradually formed a cyclone, carrying away countless dead branches and fallen leaves.
"Let's make a bet. Without my intervention, can Mofeng City survive this crisis?"
After the bet was made, the shock on Principal Su's face came belatedly.
Looking at the little girl who could enter the Dao in a balanced state at any time, he swallowed hard, "Bet, where's the bet?"
Lin Xiao, who was at the center of the storm, allowed himself to be enveloped by the spiritual energy, but did not use brute force to destroy the last obstacle.
Because the Dao Seed that had been dormant for a long time had reacted, the two Dao patterns that had been added out of thin air turned into leaves, just like young sprouts when a seed germinated.
Seeing this, Young Master Lin immediately turned into a gambler. She did not choose to quit while she was ahead, but instead bet all her fortune on trusting her relatives and friends.
"Old man, if I lose, Xianwu Academy will get an outdated young master Lin who only knows how to run a business."
"Well, what if you win?" Hearing that the little girl had put all her eggs in one basket, Old Su's face suddenly became serious.
"If I win by chance, I will buy the right of the thirteen northern schools to speak in the academic alliance!"
Click!
It was as if a thunderbolt flashed through Su Zheng's mind, and he was struck to stand up.
Shock, terror, doubt, countless thoughts flashed through my mind, and finally all turned into a sigh and strong expectation.
"make a deal!"
