Original God Zhongli BG Xiao Qinglong traveled through time

Chapter 168 Morning Dew

The next day, Lin Huan got up early, holding his long sword Panyanjielu, walked to the terrace on the third floor, and breathed the cool morning breeze - just like usual.

A familiar figure slowly fell beside him. A slightly cool hand gently touched his shoulder, but he didn't notice it for a moment... Lin Huan thought, it seems that he has been a little slack in recent days.

"Xiao." Lin Huan called his name softly with a smile on his face.

"Hmm..." Xiao nodded slightly in response. "Is that Warlock Boyang... okay?" His voice was low and steady, revealing a hint of concern.

"Don't worry, he's fine." Lin Huan replied calmly. "...I'm fine too."

"Forget it... Never mind..." Xiao was slightly startled, and looked her up and down, as if he wanted to confirm whether she was really okay. "If you think you are okay... that's good."

"Xiao, don't worry." Lin Huan smiled and shook his sleeves, as if to assure him of something. "I know what I'm doing."

"Yes... I know." Xiao still stood like a statue, unmoved. "I know you... always have your own ideas and opinions... Now that things have come to this, I also understand that I can't persuade you to change your mind, but it seems that you haven't reported this to the emperor yet, right?"

Lin Huan shrugged slightly, with a guilty look in his eyes, "...Mr. is very busy, so let's not... disturb him, okay?"

A faint smile of understanding flashed across Xiao's eyes, "Humph... little girl!... Don't worry, only you and I know about this, and we will never let anyone else know."

Of course, after sensing her aura, it was impossible for the other people in Jueyunjian to not notice anything unusual. And knowing this, someone would get impatient and angry… I couldn't control her, but I was sure someone else could.

Lin Huan nodded gently, a warm feeling welling up in her heart. She looked up at the sky in the distance, her thoughts gradually drifting away.

After a moment, Xiao's voice brought her back to reality.

"What are your plans next?"

"Hmm... I was thinking." Lin Huan thought for a moment and said frankly, "After... everything is over... I should indeed..."

The conversation gradually quieted down. And her hands, which were holding the corner of Xiao's clothes and swaying slightly, also gradually became silent.

"Alright." Xiao's tone was calm with a hint of tenderness that was hard to detect. "But now is different from the past. If you encounter something that is out of control, call my name and don't act stubbornly... understand?"

Of course, this girl had lost all credibility in this matter, and he knew it...

“…Thank you, Xiao, I don’t need to do that.” Lin Huan said with a smile.

The two stood quietly on the terrace, tacitly silent, enjoying the rare moment of tranquility in the early morning.

Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps so light that it was almost imperceptible. Then, a clear and pleasant voice came into my ears: "Good morning, auntie...ah! Could this be..."

There was a hint of surprise and confusion in Ye Qi's tone.

"That's right, Aqi, this is the Great Sage who subdues demons." Lin Huan turned around with a smile and said to Ye Qi.

"So he really is the Great Sage who conquers demons!" Ye Qi's face showed excitement. She widened her eyes and looked carefully at the mysterious and powerful figure in front of her whom she had never met before.

"Good morning, Ah Qi." Lin Huan smiled and nodded to Ye Qi, then turned to look at Xiao and introduced, "This is Ye Qi, the daughter of the Boyang family. She has been learning martial arts from her father since she was a child. She is an outstanding female warrior."

Xiao nodded slightly to show his greeting. His eyes fell on Ye Qi, and there was a look of admiration in his eyes.

"That's true. I haven't seen you for many years. You have grown up and your martial arts have improved a lot. I believe you have not been lazy in training all these years. That's great. As for your father, don't worry too much. His illness has been controlled and he should be fine in the future."

Xiao's voice was low and steady, as if it contained endless power.

After saying this, Xiao turned sideways and cast his gaze towards Lin Huan. His eyes were still as indifferent as usual, and there didn't seem to be much emotional fluctuation. Seeing this, Lin Huan just shrugged, put his hands behind his back, and listened quietly to Xiao's words.

Ye Qi's eyes were slightly red, but she still smiled and nodded gently.

"Thank you... Xiao... Uncle for your concern. I'm doing fine, not too sad, everyone is always with me... Aunt said she wants to take me and my brothers to visit Jueyunjian... I wonder what it's like there..."

"Don't worry." Xiao's voice was still cold and calm. "Jueyun Immortal Mansion has beautiful scenery. You can enjoy the tour and relax without any worries."

"Thank you." Ye Qi said gratefully.

"Aqi, is there anything else?" Lin Huan looked at Ye Qi and asked with concern.

"Nothing special, I just saw the Great Sage here, so I came over to say hello to him." Ye Qi explained with a smile, "Oh, by the way, Great Sage, we asked the kitchen to make your favorite almond tofu. If you have time later, don't forget to try it."

"Okay." Xiao responded in a low voice.

"Then I'll go back to my room to do my morning lessons. Aunt, Xiao...Uncle, let's say goodbye now." Ye Qi said softly, then winked playfully and turned away. But looking at her back as she walked away, there seemed to be a hint of excitement that was difficult to conceal. Sure enough...this girl still retains some childishness after all.

"Hehehe...she must be very satisfied to see you!" Lin Huan couldn't help but joked with a smile.

Xiao did not say anything, but his originally tense facial lines relaxed slightly, revealing an imperceptible gentle look.

"Xiao...see you later!" Lin Huan said as he picked up the sword beside him and made a gesture to get up and leave.

However, at this moment, Xiao suddenly called out to her: "Wait."

"Huh? What's the matter?" Lin Huan turned his head doubtfully, and his eyes happened to meet Xiao's deep and calm eyes.

Xiao opened his lips slightly and uttered three simple words: "Be careful."

"Okay, I understand!" Lin Huan raised a bright smile, waved vigorously at Xiao, turned around and walked out of the terrace, and his figure quickly disappeared from sight.
