3038. Eve of the Cultivation Conference 2
While Leng Xuan was practicing, in a mansion thousands of miles away, more than a dozen well-dressed boys and girls stood at attention outside a house. The house was made of stones, smooth and flat on all sides, showing a dark gray color and obviously extremely hard. The strange thing is that except for a stone door, this stone house does not even have a window. At this moment, the boys and girls were silent and lined up neatly in two rows, as if they were waiting for someone to appear. After a while, the stone door suddenly started to rotate. Then, a handsome man in white slowly walked out. As soon as he appeared, the boys and girls immediately knelt on the ground and said in unison: "Congratulations to the eldest young master for your successful release from seclusion." The handsome man raised his lips slightly, showing a bright smile, then raised his hands and said: "Get up, everyone. Bar."
After the boys and girls stood up, the handsome man put his hands behind his hands and said: "You fourteen people were carefully selected by our Qin family, spent material and financial resources, and trained hard. Over the years, you have lived up to your expectations. It is my Qin Ming’s expectation. Now that the Cultivation Conference is coming, you will go with me. I hope you will not ruin the reputation of my Qin family. Do you understand?" As soon as he said his words, he received an immediate response from everyone. Qin Ming nodded with satisfaction. These fourteen men and women were all his cronies and the executors of his future power. According to the rules of the Qin family, the heir of the family head will choose fourteen children to live and grow with him since he was a child. The purpose of this is, firstly, to cultivate one's own confidants, and secondly, to cultivate their loyalty.
Qin Ming raised his head and squinted at the scorching sun above his head, a scorching light suddenly flashed in his eyes. It was like the heart he had held back for so many years was gradually ignited.
Two days flew by in the blink of an eye. After everyone's careful care, Ling Xuejiu's health gradually improved. Although he has not fully recovered, he is already able to get out of bed and walk. Originally, this was something to be happy about. However, when Ling Xuejiu learned that Leng Xuan was about to leave, his mood seemed a little low. The night before departure, Leng Xuan came to Ling Xuejiao's room alone. Walking in the door, I saw Ling Xuejiu half lying on the bed, wearing a silk pajamas, her shoulders slightly exposed, holding a book with a light brown cover in her hand, reading intently. He walked slowly to the bedside and whispered: "It's so late, why don't you go to bed early?" Ling Xuejiao put the book next to him, pursed his lips and said: "When will you leave tomorrow?" Leng Xuan replied: " I have made an appointment with Grandpa Long and will set off in the morning." After a pause, he said in an apologetic tone: "Snow Eagle, I'm sorry. I should have stayed to take care of you when you were sick, but..."
Before he could finish speaking, Ling Xuejiu had already reached out to stop him and said, "You don't have to blame yourself, grandpa has already explained it to me. He said that you have been looking forward to this trip for a year. And , this trip has extraordinary significance for your future life path. Therefore, I will not blame you, and you must not feel sorry for me. I don’t want to change you because of me. Besides, I am now My condition has begun to improve, so you don’t have to worry about me." Leng Xuan nodded slowly and said, "Xuejiu, thank you for your understanding."
