Chapter 318 Black Qing

As for whether they can meet the seriously injured Granny Hua, it depends on their own fate.

If Xiao Ling directly tells Granny Hua about their affairs, if they really meet Granny Hua, no matter what their original thoughts are, Granny Hua, who is experienced, will see that they have some plot, and in this way, they may end up making things worse.

After doing all this, Xiao Ling walked out of the room quietly, leaving behind a quiet and two beautiful women who were still sleeping.

…

When Xiao Ling left Han Yue's room and returned to the courtyard arranged by the Han family for him, he found that Xiao Yixian, Qinglin, Ziyan and Tianhuo Zunzun were already waiting there.

It seems that he got up a little late and wasted some time.

"Xiao Ling, you guy, didn't you say that you would get up early and leave early today? Why did it take until now?" Ziyan pouted and said unhappily.

"Haha, I actually woke up very early, but I just went out for a few laps and just came back." Xiao Ling explained calmly.

As an experienced person, Xiao Yixian saw at a glance that Xiao Ling must have had something wrong last night, but she just smiled and didn't say much about it.

After confirming that everyone was ready to go, Xiao Ling waved his hand and the Sky Splitter came out. Everyone filed in, and the group set off on the journey to Shengdan City with great interest.

…

After several hours of flying by the Sky Splitter, Xiao Ling and his group finally arrived in Qingfeng City, where they decided to stay for a while.

They chose to stop in Qingfeng City because they needed to use the space wormhole here. In order to shorten the time to Shengdan City as much as possible, they had to travel through space wormholes one after another.

Even so, even if they used space wormholes all the way, it would take at least a month to reach their destination.

In Qingfeng City, they strolled around leisurely, and Xiao Ling also specially purchased some medicinal herbs and materials. After everything was ready, they went to the location of the city's space wormhole.

Standing in front of the entrance of the space wormhole, Zi Yan curled her lips and complained helplessly: "It's really troublesome. I have to take this space wormhole again. I will be bored to death when the time comes."

Xiao Ling gently rubbed Zi Yan's head and said with a smile: "This is also unavoidable. Just bear with it. But don't worry, I will cover all your pills during this period."

In fact, if they let the Sky Fire Venerable open the space wormhole along the way, the speed can indeed be faster. However, Xiao Ling is not in a hurry and does not want to make things too complicated.

"Okay, everyone get ready, we will set off now." Xiao Ling's voice was filled with a hint of relaxation and encouragement. He took the lead in entering the space wormhole, and the others followed closely.

Although Zi Yan complained, her eyes flashed with curiosity and expectation for the unknown journey. As the figures of several people entered the space wormhole, their figures gradually disappeared in a piece of light, and a new journey began.

In the next few days, Xiao Ling and his companions kept shuttling between the space wormholes and heading towards the Dan domain.

The journey was not a monotonous rush. They also visited several big cities and bought a lot of medicinal materials.

Zhongzhou is the heartland of the continent. Even in the northern region, the number of rare medicinal materials it has is far beyond the reach of the Northwest Continent. In the past few days, Xiao Ling has harvested a lot of medicinal materials that he didn't have before.

Even the materials for refining Fuling Qingdan were collected a lot, but after all, it was an eighth-grade elixir, and some main medicinal materials were still quite rare. Xiao Ling only found one main medicinal material along the way.

In a strange passage with a faint silver light, a ship several feet in size was shuttling at an astonishing speed. On the deck of this spaceship, Xiao Ling and his companions were busy and enjoying this peaceful journey.

Zi Yan sat in a corner of the deck, holding the sleeping Seven-Colored Sky-Swallowing Python in her arms. She stroked its smooth scales and muttered, "Xiao Ling, how long do you think it will take for Sister Medusa to wake up?"

Xiao Ling was flipping through an old scroll on the side. Hearing Zi Yan's words, he smiled slightly and raised his head: "Well, it depends on whether the soul fusion process goes smoothly. She is at a critical moment now. Don't disturb her. If something goes wrong, it will be troublesome."

Not long ago, Medusa had taken the Soul-Melting Pill carefully refined by Xiao Ling and began to fall into a deep sleep, merging the two souls. When she wakes up, take another Soul-Restoring Pill, and the side effects of Medusa's evolution will completely disappear.

Zi Yan nodded, her eyes revealed a trace of worry, but more of expectation: "I hope she can be successful, I really want to see what Sister Medusa looks like after evolution."

Xiao Ling closed the scroll, walked to Zi Yan, and patted her shoulder gently: "Don't worry, your sister Medusa will be fine."

Just as Xiao Ling and Zi Yan were chatting, suddenly, in the endless space storm around them, a huge black dragon slowly emerged, and its endless body was looming in the darkness.

In the dragon's pair of animal eyes, the bright purple pupils turned, and its eyes were fixed on Zi Yan beside Xiao Ling.

As if confirming something, the dragon immediately rushed towards the space channel, its body constantly shrinking while moving, and when it came to a hundred feet away, it had turned into a muscular man with a body like an iron tower.

The sturdy man stepped into the space barrier easily. Obviously, his control over space has reached an extremely high level, and the barrier of this passage is not worth mentioning to him at all.

After passing through the space passage, the strong man accurately landed in front of the space ship that was flying at high speed, blocking the space ship's progress.

The moment the brawny man appeared, Lord Tianhuo seemed to fall from the sky and suddenly stood in front of Xiao Ling and the others, staring at the brawny man warily. In his perception, the strength of this strong man who suddenly appeared was unfathomable, even when he was in his prime, he could not compare with it.

At this moment, Lord Tianhuo's muscles tensed up and he was ready. If the other party had any evil intentions, he planned to go all out and escape with Xiao Ling and the other young people.

When the strong figure stepped into the space ship from the outside space, everyone stopped and stared in the direction of the strong man with vigilant eyes.

After the strong man landed firmly on the spacecraft, Xiao Ling politely raised his hands and asked, "Senior, why are you blocking our way?"

However, the strong man seemed to turn a deaf ear to Xiao Ling's words. His eyes were firmly fixed on Zi Yan, and the complex emotions of fanaticism, awe and excitement flashed in those tiger eyes...

Driven by excitement, the strong man took a few steps forward. His height of nearly two meters and bulging muscles gave people a strong sense of oppression. Every inch of his muscles seemed to be made of iron, demonstrating his amazing physical strength.

"My friend, your behavior seems inappropriate." Lord Tianhuo's voice sounded, and his figure instantly blocked Xiao Ling and Zi Yan.

Xiao Ling also quickly pulled Zi Yan back a few steps. Little Medical Fairy and Qing Lin quickly came to their side. Xiao Ling even summoned the Celestial Demon Puppet to stand in front of them.

Lord Tianhuo's gaze was like a torch, watching the strong man's every move, ready to deal with possible conflicts at any time. The scene was tense for a time, and even the surrounding space seemed to have solidified.

The tense posture of Xiao Ling and his companions surprised the strong man. After being stunned for a moment, a warm smile appeared on his square and rugged face.

His big hands rubbed against each other, looking a little embarrassed, but his eyes were still firmly locked on Zi Yan.

"Haha, you young guys, don't be so nervous." The strong man's laughter was loud and rough, and he continued, "My name is Hei Qing, and I am a member of the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan. I am here. Following the orders of the clan elders, we invite our royal bloodline to return to Dragon Island.”

When Xiao Ling heard these words, his eyes narrowed slightly, but he didn't show much surprise. From the moment Hei Qing appeared, he already had a premonition in his heart.

After all, Zi Yan has been in Zhongzhou for a while, and it is not unexpected that people from the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan will find her traces sooner or later.

"Hei Qing, he should be from Donglong Island, right?" Xiao Ling thought to himself.

Hei Qing himself may not have realized it. He just casually reported his name and Xiao Ling guessed his origin. After all, Hei Qing is a relatively important character in the original work, and it is not difficult to recognize him.

Upon hearing the words "Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan", everyone couldn't help but be shocked, and then, all eyes focused on Zi Yan.

It can be heard from the strong man's words that he seems to have come specifically to take Zi Yan back to the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan. And judging from his tone, Zi Yan's status in the clan seems to be extraordinary.

Hei Qing's face was filled with a simple and friendly smile, and his eyes showed his appreciation for Xiao Ling and others.

He had just seen Xiao Ling and others protecting Zi Yan, and his impression of Xiao Ling and others immediately improved a lot.

"These young people are not simple. They have the strength of Dou Zong at such a young age. Even I can't figure out their soul power. Yet they still care so much about Her Highness. It seems that Her Highness is really lucky to have made such good friends. The cultivation of these two little girls is not weak, they have reached the realm of Dou Zong, and they are protected by a strong Dou Zong. "

Hei Qing thought to himself. "... However, this bloodline aura is a bit familiar... It seems to be from the Xiao clan. I didn't expect that the Xiao clan, which has disappeared for a long time, can produce such a genius. He is worthy of being one of the eight ancient clans... However, the bloodline seems to have Declined.”

But when everyone's eyes focused on Zi Yan, she showed unexpected calmness. She used to be alone, and her longing for her people made her think that she would be very excited once she met her own people.

However, now she already has relatives like Xiao Ling and the Little Medical Fairy. Even though she learned that her own clan was the famous Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan in the World of Warcraft, and even when faced with the excitement of the strong man in front of her, Zi Yan just gently pulled Xiao Ling's sleeves, with an unusual expression on her face. calm.

She tilted her head as if she was thinking about something, and then asked in an unusually calm voice: "I can feel that you are indeed one of my tribe. Did you just say that I was Her Royal Highness? Then it seems that my parents are here My status in the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan should be quite high. So, can you tell me why they abandoned me?"

Facing Zi Yan's question, Hei Qing's smile froze slightly, and a trace of complexity flashed in his eyes. He obviously didn't expect Zi Yan to have such a reaction, let alone that she would raise such a question so directly.

"Your Highness Princess... this..." Hei Qing seemed a little hesitant. He didn't know how to answer this question. After all, it involved some secrets and past events in the clan.

However, this explanation obviously does not satisfy Zi Yan. She still maintained that calmness, as if nothing could arouse waves in her heart.

Seeing Zi Yan in front of him, Hei Qing, a man with such a strong character, couldn't help but feel his heart tightening and his nose sore. The smile on his face had long since disappeared, replaced by a serious look on his face.

"This matter is indeed very complicated, and I don't know much," Hei Qing's voice became deeper, and his eyes showed a hint of helplessness, "We have to go back to Dragon Island and let Elder Zhuli explain it to you personally. I I believe there must be a misunderstanding.”

Xiao Ling knew in her heart that what Hei Qing said was true, and there was indeed a misunderstanding behind this matter.

Zi Yan's father, Zhu Kun, was plotted by the ancient Emperor Tuoshe and became the guardian of the ancient emperor's cave. He has been guarding the cave for thousands of years. This is the reason why Zi Yan lives in the outside world, not because she was Parental abandonment.

Except for Zhu Kun, no one knows this better than Xiao Ling. However, Xiao Ling could not explain why he knew all this, because the whole story was really difficult to explain.

"This..." Zi Yan's voice was trembling. Her eyes wandered between Hei Qing and Xiao Ling, and the fluctuations in her heart were obvious.

Although she tried to remain calm, the desire for news about her parents was overwhelming.

She looked up at Xiao Ling, her eyes full of help and dependence, as if to say: "Help me make a decision."

Seeing this, Hei Qing couldn't help but feel a little envious of Xiao Ling's position in Zi Yan's heart. He hurriedly looked at Xiao Ling for help, hoping that this young man could help him convince Zi Yan.

However, Xiao Ling's eyes were always fixed on Zi Yan, and he seemed completely unaware of Hei Qing's eyes.

But to Hei Qing's surprise, Xiao Ling's next words warmed his heart, and his affection for Xiao Ling deepened.

Xiao Ling gently stroked Zi Yan's hair, her tone full of doting and caring: "Zi Yan, since there is news about your relatives, go back and take a look. Maybe there is the answer you have been looking for."

Xiao Ling didn't speak much, but every word revealed his understanding and support for Zi Yan.

Zi Yan pondered for a moment under Xiao Ling's gentle eyes. Finally, she nodded firmly and turned to Hei Qing, with a hint of firmness in her tone: "Okay, I'll go back with you, but Xiao Ling and the others also have to come together!"

After hearing this, Hei Qing showed a happy smile on his face, but then he showed a look of embarrassment. It wasn't that he didn't want to take Xiao Ling and the others with him, but he was actually worried.

"Zi Yan, you go back with him. We won't go home with you this time." Xiao Ling's voice was calm and firm.

"Why? Xiao Ling, didn't we agree to go home together?" Zi Yan's tone was full of surprise and disappointment, and her purple pupils flashed with confusion and confusion.

"Zi Yan, Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan, I will go with you, but not now." Xiao Ling's tone was gentle but firm, "If you miss us, you can come out to us at any time. Senior Hei Qing, what do you say? Zi Yan is the princess of the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan, I believe they will not stop such a trivial matter. "

Xiao Ling turned to Hei Qing, with a questioning look in his eyes.

"Ah, yes, yes, Princess, if you miss them, you can come out at any time." Hei Qing nodded quickly, his tone full of respect and assurance. He did not want to cause Zi Yan any discomfort on this issue.

"Okay, if that's the case, then I'll go back and take a look first." Zi Yan finally compromised. Although she felt a little reluctant, she knew that Xiao Ling's consideration was reasonable.

"Senior Hei Qing, let's say goodbye then, and I'll ask you to take care of Zi Yan." Xiao Ling cupped her hands to Hei Qing, with a hint of solemnity in her tone.

"Don't worry, little friend Xiao Ling, our Donglong Island will take good care of His Highness." Hei Qing also responded seriously.

Tears shone in Zi Yan's eyes, her reluctance was beyond words, and small pearl-like teardrops fell down and hit Xiao Ling's palm.

She hugged Xiao Ling tightly, and her voice was choked: "Xiao Ling, I can't let you go."

Xiao Ling's heart was also full of reluctance, but he knew that as the princess of the Taixu Ancient Dragon Clan and the future Dragon King, Zi Yan's return to the clan was an indispensable part of her growth.

Xiao Ling patted Zi Yan's back gently, gently held Zi Yan's face, wiped away her tears with her thumb, and comforted her softly: "Silly girl, it's not like we don't see each other anymore. The Gulong Clan is your growth. The best place where you can practice and learn better. And if you miss me, you can come to me at any time, or I can come to you.”

In order to reassure Zi Yan, Xiao Ling took out a delicate ring from his own ring, handed it to Zi Yan's hand, and said with a smile: "These are all pills I refined for you, which is enough for you to take for three years." After returning to the Ancient Dragon Clan, don’t forget to practice.”

Zi Yan took the ring and held it tightly in her hand. A smile finally appeared on her face and the tears in her eyes gradually disappeared.

"Okay, stop crying, you won't be pretty if you cry anymore." Xiao Ling gently wiped the tears on Zi Yan's face and said with a smile.

"I will, Xiao Ling, I will become stronger. Don't let me throw you too far when the time comes." Zi Yan stretched out her little hand to wipe away a few tears on her face, trying to make her voice heard. Rise up stronger.

Xiao Ling smiled, nodded, then turned to Hei Qing and said, "Senior Hei Qing, Zi Yan will be left to you. Please protect her."

Hei Qing nodded solemnly and promised: "Little friend Xiao Ling, don't worry, I will use my life to protect the safety of Her Highness the Princess."
