Painting of the Nine Immortals

Chapter 173

"Don't cry, I'm unlucky when I meet you, can't I help you?"

A gentle voice with a little helplessness suddenly sounded, like a spring breeze blowing, warming people's hearts. "i more and more complete"

Warm Bai Xiaoqi's heart.

The girl raised her head, and saw a familiar man. In an instant, she burst into laughter, only to feel that her heart was wrapped in warmth, and she felt at ease like never before.

"You."

Looking at the girl in front of her with snot and tears, Ling Xian's mouth showed a faint smile. Although he was still a little reluctant, at this moment, he did not regret it.

It was worth it to be able to make this cute girl burst into laughter.

"oops."

Feeling the tenderness in that smile, Bai Xiaoqi's pretty face flushed slightly, she suddenly remembered that she had just cried, she hurriedly wiped her cheeks with her sleeve, as if she didn't want Ling Xian to see her crying.

"Let me do it."

Ling Xian smiled gently, wiped away the tears on Bai Xiaoqi's face with his sleeve, and then slowly extended a hand.

The hand was slender and fair, and it was handed to the girl.

At this moment, Bai Xiaoqi felt that her world had cleared up. That sentence and this hand seemed to have infinite magic power, giving her light and hope.

Putting the slender jade hand in Ling Xian's palm, Bai Xiaoqi used his strength to stand up and said with a smile, "Why are you back again, aren't you unwilling to help me?"

"I really didn't want to at first, no one will take the initiative to get into a big trouble." Ling Xian smiled lightly, reached out and scratched Bai Xiaoqi's nose, and said: "But, you are crying into tears, If I don't come back, doesn't it seem like I'm hard-hearted?"

Feeling Ling Xian's fingers hanging on her nose, Bai Xiaoqi's pretty face turned red, she slapped his hand away, and hummed, "You are a heart of stone, I've been crying for so long before you came back, Humph, big bastard."

A hint of play flashed in Ling Xianxing's eyes, and she said, "Bai Xiaoqi, if you scold me again, I can leave."

"Humph." Bai Xiaoqi pouted and muttered, "Let's go, you go, I dare to cry if you dare to go."

"All right,

I'm not leaving, I'll stay and help you. "Ling Xian smiled and shook his head.

"It's almost the same." The corner of Bai Xiaoqi's mouth curved slightly, but he felt extremely warm in his heart.

"Okay, first find a place to stay temporarily, and then you can tell me the whole thing." Ling Xian smiled lightly, then turned and walked forward.

Bai Xiaoqi nodded obediently, and immediately moved the lotus step, following Ling Xian like a little follower. The well-behaved appearance of "i More, More Complete", as if she will follow wherever she goes.

"Haha, it's alright, it's just a quarrel between Taoist companions, don't watch it."

"Yeah, the young couple is just fighting, the big guys are gone."

"Young man, this girl cried so sadly just now, you can't let her cry anymore."

The people watching around let out a good-natured laughter, and then left one after another.

Hearing the words ringing in her ears, Ling Xian's face flashed a hint of embarrassment, and she hurriedly accelerated her pace, wanting to leave this place quickly.

Bai Xiaoqi's pretty face blushed, seeing Ling Xian speeding up her pace, she pursed her lips and snickered, and Lian Bu was also a little faster.

In this way, the two walked on the street for a while, and then walked into an antique restaurant.

"Come on, go to the second floor."

Ling Xian smiled slightly, and led Bai Xiaoqi to the second floor, immediately ordered a few side dishes, and sat down near the window.

"Xian Ling, what are we doing here?" Bai Xiaoqi frowned, not understanding Ling Xian's intentions.

Ling Xian raised the corners of her mouth and said with a smile, "You don't understand this. The restaurant is a good place. You can hear the recent events without saying anything."

"You mean, you can hear news about my Bai family here?" Bai Xiaoqi's beautiful eyes lit up.

"I can't guarantee this, just wait with peace of mind." Ling Xian smiled lightly.

Hearing this, Bai Xiaoqi pricked up his ears and listened carefully to the conversations of the people around him, hoping to hear news about the Bai family.

But until those small dishes were placed on the table, she didn't hear a word about the Bai family, so she couldn't help but say angrily: "Xianling, didn't you say you can hear it here? It's been half an hour. "

"No hurries?"

Ling Xian didn't lift her head, and while enjoying the delicious side dishes, she said, "Although I haven't heard any news about the Bai family, but haven't I heard a lot of other news?"

"But those are useless, and it has nothing to do with me." Bai Xiaoqi pouted, with that pure and delicate little face, not to mention how cute.

Unfortunately, Ling Xian still didn't look up, as if the dish in front of him was more attractive than Bai Xiaoqi.

Seeing this, Bai Xiaoqi stomped her feet in anger, and said in a sullen voice, "Xian Ling, did you hear what I said?"

"I heard, it may not be useful to you, but it is very useful to me." Ling Xian smiled lightly. Although he was focused on the dishes in front of him, he could hear the conversations of the people around him clearly.

Although he hadn't heard a word about the Bai family, he already knew the division of power on Shangdao.

On this island, there are a total of five transcendental forces, known as the five families. They are the Bai family that dominates the east, the Yan family that dominates the south, the Nangong family that dominates the west, the Ouyang family that dominates the north, and the Chu family that dominates the center.

The five great families are powerful and have a profound background. They have divided Shang Island into five equal parts. They have ruled for thousands of years.

However, Ling Xian got an important message from the conversation of the surrounding guests.

That is, although the five major families showed a group of harmony, when they encountered foreign enemies, they also agreed to the outside world. But behind the scenes, there are many disagreements, and they often fight each other over resources and territory.

This message made Ling Xian frown, secretly guessing whether the other big families attacked the Bai family.

"Bai Xiaoqi, do you think it's possible that the other big families shot?" Ling Xian took a sip of wine.

Bai Xiaoqi shook his head without even thinking about it, and denied, "Impossible, although the five major families are secretly at odds, but because of the covenant from a long time ago, the other families did not dare to attack me."

"Ancient covenant?"

Ling Xian secretly took this word to heart, and smiled: "Since you are so sure, then continue to listen."

With that, he lowered his head and continued to enjoy the delicious side dishes.

Seeing this, Bai Xiaoqi gritted his teeth and said angrily: "What are you listening to, you lie to me, there is no news at all here."

However, as soon as she finished speaking, there were several people talking from the far east. Although they deliberately lowered their voices, Bai Xiaoqi was a cultivator at the Foundation Establishment stage, so he could still hear it clearly.

As for Ling Xian, not to mention, he has already put his soul on those few people.

"Have you heard? Something big happened to the Dongfang Bai family!"

"Shh, keep it quiet, it's not good for people to hear."

"Hey, it sounds incredible. It's a family that has been on the Shang Island for thousands of years. How could it have changed hands so quickly?"

"I heard that it was that mysterious sect who took action, helped the second master of the Bai family, and usurped the position of the head of the Bai family."

"I heard the same thing, but I still can't figure it out. The head of the Bai family is shrewd and has a deep sense of government. Even if the mysterious sect helps, it is impossible for the second master of the Bai family to usurp the throne. What's more, the rest Could the four major families just sit back and watch?"

"Hey, you don't understand this. Although the five major families are friendly on the surface, they secretly want to annex each other. For those four families, who is the head of the Bai family is not the same? Woolen cloth."

Hearing this, things have gradually become clear.

Bai Xiaoqi clenched her teeth tightly, if it wasn't for Ling Xian's aura to hold her down, I'm afraid she couldn't help smashing things.

"It turned out to be my second uncle! This bastard!"

Bai Xiaoqi's face was full of anger, and he never expected that it was his second uncle who tried to usurp the throne and overturned the Bai family.

"Calm down." Ling Xian frowned and said with his soul: "At least, the Bai family has not been destroyed, and your relatives may still be alive."

Immediately, Bai Xiaoqi's beautiful eyes burst into expression, suppressing the anger in his heart, and whispered, "My parents, is it really possible that they are still alive?"

"I can't guarantee that either."

Ling Xian shook his head gently and said: "But you think, now that the position of the head of the Bai family has been taken away by your second uncle, his purpose has been achieved. Therefore, he is very likely to take into account the brotherhood and not take you Father killed."

However, what he said was very unconvincing, because the possibility was quite small, and he only said this to stabilize Bai Xiaoqi.

"Then let's hurry back to Bai's house and save my parents." Bai Xiaoqi said eagerly, her pretty face full of deep worry.

Back to the white house?

Ling Xian smiled helplessly and said, "My eldest lady, you look down on me too much, don't you know what the strength of your Bai family is? Even if I have experienced infighting, a cultivator at the stage of forming a pill can't retreat completely. Not to mention saving lives."

There is nothing wrong with this sentence. Although he is strong now, the Bai family is a behemoth. Even if you look at the Thirty-Six Islands, it can be regarded as a top force!

At the very least, there must be more than a dozen cultivators of forming pills, and maybe there are old monsters in the Nascent Soul period hidden. In this case, how could Ling Xian be an opponent?

"This……"

Bai Xiaoqi thought of the powerhouses in the family's core formation stage, and his heart gradually cooled down. He smiled sadly, "What should I do? Is there really no way for me to save my parents?"

"Ugh……"

Ling Xian let out a long sigh and comforted: "Just take one step at a time, don't worry, no matter what, I will stay with you."

"Xianling, thank you." Bai Xiaoqi's eyes filled with tears, staring at the handsome young man in front of him, only to feel that his heart gradually became stable, as if he had great support.

"Don't say thank you, I hope things are easier than I thought." Ling Xian sighed softly, and then dropped hundreds of spirit stones, saying: "Let's go, find a place to stay first, and inquire carefully. Take a look at the situation and then decide what to do.”

After speaking, he stood up and walked downstairs.

Bai Xiaoqi wiped away the tears and followed Ling Xian closely, preparing to find a place to stay first.
