Chapter 399 Alone
"Yes! Woohoo! Grandpa, I know... Woohoo~!"
While shedding tears, Xiao Yexin took the talisman.
Then she came to the tattered table.
She lit the talisman with the very weak flame.
The moment the talisman was lit, a strange energy instantly emanated.
The communication talisman dissipated, and a figure gradually condensed in front of Xiao Yexin.
…
At this moment, on the fairy ship that was still some distance away from Xiaocheng.
Ye Yun, who had just finished fighting and was about to rest, suddenly felt the energy of the communication talisman.
Immediately sat up cross-legged, immediately pinched a spell in his hand, and closed his eyes.
Ye Yun's consciousness, under the guidance of the communication talisman, quickly came to the location of the communication talisman.
When he opened his eyes again, he saw Xiao Yexin, who was close at hand.
This time, he went to Xiaocheng and was about to find Xiao Yexin.
Unexpectedly, this little girl suddenly found him at this time.
At this time, Ye Yun saw the frail old man lying on the bed through the power of the communication talisman.
Ye Yun frowned slightly, unable to understand.
The spiritual stones he gave should have been enough to treat Xiao Ye Xin's illness, and there should even be some left.
The old man was sick, and he should have been treated with spiritual stones, but why was he like this now?
At this time, Ye Yun noticed that there seemed to be some bruises on the old man's face. If nothing unexpected happened, he should have been beaten.
Ye Yun reacted instantly and knew what was going on.
He was originally a poor man, and suddenly he had so many spiritual stones. It was normal for people to target him.
It was probably some hooligans who snatched the spiritual stones he gave.
He also beat the old man, which led to his current life-threatening state.
"Old... Master, I... I want to ask you... for a favor.
I'm... dying soon, I hope... I hope you can take care of... Xinxin for me.
I know that such a request... is unreasonable, but... I don't want Xinxin's future life to be... more miserable."
Hearing that faint voice, it was like a candle in the wind, which could be extinguished at any time.
"I know, it was my mistake to agree to your request, I didn't expect you to be targeted."
Ye Yun's face did not change at all, he had thought about this situation before.
An innocent man is guilty of holding a treasure.
An old man with little ability suddenly obtained so many spirit stones, naturally he would be coveted by others.
"Ahem! Thank... thank you."
He coughed twice and said the word thank you with difficulty.
Little Ye Xin burst into tears.
She was very sensible and did not interrupt, and she couldn't bear to interrupt her grandfather.
"Then Xiao Ye Xin... please... please..."
Nodding slightly, Ye Yun said truthfully.
"Well, I know. I will go to Xiaocheng in a few days, and I will come to pick up Xiao Yexin then."
At this time, Xiao Yexin, who had not cried or made a fuss, suddenly shouted loudly.
"I won't leave! Grandpa, I don't want to leave! I want to be with you! Woo woo woo~!"
Xiao Yexin grew up with her grandfather and regarded her grandfather as her closest person.
How could she be willing to leave her grandfather and go alone?
She couldn't do such a thing.
Ye Yun just glanced at Xiao Yexin and didn't say anything.
He had just seen that it was a miracle for the old man to survive tonight, and it was very likely that he would not survive tonight.
The old man lying on the bed ignored Xiao Yexin's rebuttal and continued.
"Then... trouble you, thank you, sir."
Then, the power of the communication talisman disappeared, and the room returned to peace again.
Xiao Yexin rushed to the bedside, held the old man's hand tightly, and shook her head vigorously with a crying voice.
"Grandpa! I don't want to leave, I want to stay with you all the time, and I won't go anywhere!"
She hugged the old man again, her eyes full of reluctance.
The old man's eyes were a little dazed. Seeing his granddaughter like this, he touched her little head with heartache.
"Okay... okay, Xinxin... don't cry, grandpa... I'm already... satisfied to hand you over to someone who can... entrust you.
I... I..."
I wanted to say something, but the glimmer in my eyes had disappeared at this moment.
The pupils were dilated, and the chest no longer rose and fell, and it lost its vitality.
Originally, Xiao Yexin was quietly waiting for the next words of grandpa, but she waited for a long time but didn't wait. She immediately raised her head and saw that grandpa was no longer moving.
"Grandpa! Grandpa! Wake up! Grandpa! ! ! !"
Shaking the old man's body constantly, Xiao Yexin's tears kept flowing down.
Although she was still young, she knew much more than ordinary children.
Grandpa looked like this, it was obvious that he had passed away.
Although she knew this was the case, she was still unwilling in her heart, and Xiao Yexin called out at the top of her lungs.
...
On the other side, the fairy ship under the moonlight was sailing fast.
Ye Yun opened his eyes, and he understood the situation clearly.
He actually had some intentions when he gave the old man the spirit stone at the beginning.
The old man with poor health and a ten-year-old girl were almost no threat.
Once they were targeted by someone with ulterior motives, it was inevitable that they would be robbed. The old man fought desperately, and it was natural that he was beaten.
He was old and weak, even if he had a little cultivation, but who didn't have some cultivation?
It's good that he didn't die after being beaten.
If this kind of thing didn't happen, the old man could live for at least several years, even ten years is not impossible.
If Ye Yun wants to take Ye Xin away as soon as possible, then the old man naturally can't live too long.
He had planned it from the beginning.
As for why he didn't worry about Ye Xin having any problems, it was because Ye Yun had already arranged for someone to watch Ye Xin in secret.
Once someone dared to attack Ye Xin, the people hiding in the dark would definitely not be polite.
Even if he really couldn't win, he could just report Ye Yun's name at that time.
From beginning to end, Ye Yun never thought that the old man could live too long.
If the old man didn't have any problems during this period, Ye Yun would probably arrange for some problems to happen to him.
Therefore, the death of the old man was not a real accident, but... it had been destined.
Even if there were no hooligans, there would be other accidents.
The only person who knew all this was Ye Yun, and no one else would know.
In the future, Ye Yun would never tell Ye Xin.
This will become an eternal secret, a secret that will never be known by others.
The old man is dead, and those ruffians Ye Yun will certainly not let them go. This time, he will deal with them and improve Xiao Ye Xin's favorability.
Everything... is as planned.
...
A few days passed in a blink of an eye.
Finally, the fairy ship that Ye Yun took arrived in Xiaocheng again.
Ye Yun arrived suddenly, and the Xiao family would naturally arrange someone to greet him.
