Unexpectedly, Aunt Lan said, "Three years old? That's ten years between you and Xiaoxi. But ten years is nothing. For cultivators, even a difference of several dozen years isn't a problem. Wait, Huanhuan is only three years old. She's not old enough to have her spiritual roots tested. What if she can't cultivate?"

She originally thought that Xiaoxi had a dangerous physique and there was no chance of marriage, but now things have turned around. Xiaoxi met Huanhuan, who was not afraid of his physique. The two of them are simply a perfect match.

But if Huanhuan can't practice, should the two of them be together?

If ordinary people and monks are together, there will be no good results. After all, their lifespans are completely unequal. Monks have long lifespans, while ordinary people can only live for a short hundred years. Even if they can take elixirs to prolong their age, they can only live to be one hundred and fifty years old at most.

Xiao Xi has such extraordinary talent that it is foreseeable that he will enter the Nascent Soul stage, and his lifespan will be at least over 500 years old.

Xiaoxi is a sentimental person. What will Xiaoxi do if Huanhuan passes away?

Aunt Lan couldn't help but think too much and even shed tears.

Yuan Xi and Uncle Hong looked at each other, feeling helpless, knowing that Aunt Lan's old illness had recurred.

Yuan Xi sat down to drink his soup. Aunt Lan sat down across from him and asked, "Xiao Xi, what does Huan Huan look like? Do you have any pictures of her saved on your phone? What does her family do? Does she have any brothers or sisters?"

A series of questions.

Uncle Hong couldn't stand her anymore and pulled her up. "What are you doing? Xiaoxi has only known Huanhuan for one day, how could she possibly know so much? You'll find out later. Just go about your business."

"I'm just curious. This is the first person who can get close to Xiaoxi, and she's a little girl..."

The voices of the two gradually faded away. Looking at their backs, Yuan Xi couldn't help but smile. Sometimes he would always forget their identity as puppets because their every move was becoming more and more human.

After drinking the soup, Yuan Xi went upstairs and into his room.

The puppets all live on the first floor. Although they don't need to sleep or rest, Yuan Xi still asks Uncle Hong and the others to stop at night, return to their rooms, and recharge with spirit stones.

The villa has five floors above and below ground. Except for the first floor, the rest of the space belongs to him. Yuan Xi doesn't like others entering his territory except for puppets like Uncle Hong.

Lei Tao and the guards whose names begin with the character "Yuan" all live in the annex building. The villa where Yuan Xi lives is the main building, and there are two other annex buildings, which serve as both residences and guards.

After taking a shower, Yuan Xi picked up his phone and wanted to call Huanhuan. When Xue Rong and Lei Tao added each other's contact information, he and Huanhuan also secretly added each other's phone numbers.

As for why he did it secretly, it might be because he did it behind Xue Rong's back and felt a little guilty.

He couldn't help laughing when he thought of the cute look on Huanhuan's face when she waved at him and whispered something in his ear like spies.

It's already past nine o'clock, Huanhuan should be asleep, right?

Children usually go to bed early.

Just as he was thinking, the cell phone rang. Yuan Xi looked at the caller ID and saw it was "Huanhuan". He answered the call immediately. A whispered voice came from the other end: "Brother Yuan Xi." It sounded like someone was covering themselves with a quilt.

Yuan Xi smiled and replied, "Yes, I'm here. Huanhuan, is she still awake?"

Xue Huan: "No, Mom is taking a shower. I called you secretly. I gave you this amulet. You can put it next to your pillow so you can have a good sleep."

Yuan Xi took out the amulet from the storage ring and said, "Okay, I've put it under my pillow."

In fact, he usually uses cultivation to replace sleep. Although he has good aptitude, his high level of cultivation is not obtained out of thin air, but is the result of diligent practice day after day.

Of course, cultivation itself can make people feel refreshed, so it doesn’t matter if you don’t sleep.

Moreover, every time he fell asleep, he would fall into an endless and terrifying dream, and later he simply refused to sleep.

But tonight, he decided to get some sleep.

The two chatted for a long time. Originally, Yuan Xi was not a talkative person and did not like to talk to others, but Huanhuan's crisp voice made him want to keep listening. He did not think every word she said was childish, but interesting, and would be amused by her from time to time.

"Hanhuan, are you still awake? It's ten o'clock. Go to bed quickly. We still have to sell talismans tomorrow, so we can't be late."

Xue Rong came out after taking a shower and heard Xue Huan mumbling something under the quilt. She walked over and patted her butt.

Xue Huan hurriedly said to Yuan Xi on the other end of the phone watch: "Brother Yuan Xi, good night, I'm hanging up now."

"Good night, Huanhuan." Yuan Xi had just finished saying this when the phone was hung up.

He sat cross-legged on the bed, holding his cell phone, with a smile on his face.

This night, Yuan Xi rarely did not practice, but went to bed early. Of course, this early was relative to his previous practice time.

Yuan Xi slept until dawn and woke up to the sound of birds singing outside.

When he regained consciousness, he felt quite incredible. He hadn't had a nightmare last night? Instead, he fell into a deep sleep, his body completely relaxed and rested.

He had never experienced such a sound sleep as long as he could remember. He never knew that getting a good night's sleep could be so comfortable.

My body is still lazy, but my mind is clearer than ever before.

Yuan Xi jumped up from the bed full of energy, showing some rare youthful liveliness.

He walked barefoot to the floor-to-ceiling window, facing the rising sun, and stretched his body. His eyes were brighter and more joyful than ever before, simply because a stream of clear and lively spring water was injected into his heart, and something called hope and expectation took root in his heart.

In the past, every day of his life was the same to him. He lived one day at a time, seemingly working hard to make progress, but in fact, his heart was empty and boring. If he died at this point, he probably would have nothing to regret.

However, from today on, his thoughts changed. He felt that it was great to be alive!

For the first time, he felt that the sunshine was so warm, the scenery of lakes and mountains outside was so beautiful, the sky was so clear and blue, and everything was so beautiful.

Just because, there is one more girl in my life.

After washing up and changing his clothes, Yuan Xi came to the bed and took away the pillow. His face changed involuntarily. The amulet originally placed underneath had turned into a piece of black ash. As the wind created by him lifting the pillow caused the black ash to float away.

Why did the amulet that Huanhuan gave him become like this?

Yuan Xi frowned, and when he thought about the fact that he had not had a nightmare last night, a hint of deep thought flashed across his eyes.
