Chapter 664: The Stupid Monster in the Group Pet Article (9)

Before Xie Linguang could say anything, Luo Ming said, "Miss Su, it's not that we don't want to take you with us, it's just that this trip is dangerous. We have received a mission from the sect and are going down the mountain. We will inevitably have to deal with monsters along the way. You have neither cultivation nor martial arts. If you follow us, you may get hurt or even lose your life. It's better for you to stay here and live a stable life. When we return to the sect to find out the identity of your husband, it won't be too late for him to come and pick you up in person."

Luo Ming's words were well-reasoned and could not be faulted.

Besides, what he said was right. With so many people coming down the mountain, it was impossible for them to just come to pick up Jiang Muxue.

Everyone present was a potential disciple of the new generation of Xuanyuan Sword Sect. The sect wanted them to take this opportunity to go down the mountain to gain some experience, and they also specially sent Xie Linguang to lead the way.

Experience means danger, and bringing a weak mortal woman along would only bring trouble to yourself.

Su Yu shook her head and said seriously: "I'm not afraid."

She hugged Xie Linguang tightly, looked at him nervously, and said again: "I'm not afraid."

Xie Linguang looked down at her, letting his arms be held, and raised his voice a little: "Do you really want to follow me?"

Su Yu nodded and stared at him without blinking: "When you find your husband, let him repay you."

Xie Linguang smiled: "You are said to be stupid, but sometimes you are quite smart. Why don't you repay it yourself and let others repay it for you?"

Xie Linguang's words seemed like a joke, but they made Su Yu think carefully for a while.

After a few seconds, Su Yu's face was tense and she said seriously, "I will repay you as well."

The little girl was serious and solemn, her lips slightly pursed, her soft face pouting, making people want to pinch it to see if it was really that soft.

Xie Linguang rubbed his fingers, and finally obeyed his heart and pinched Su Yu's face: "Then follow me."

"As for repaying you, just don't cry at night."

After saying that, Xie Linguang let her go, ignored the stunned faces of the crowd, and walked into the house.

Su Yu was at a loss, staring blankly at Xie Linguang's back.

Liu Xixi's pupils trembled, and it took her a long time to come back to her senses. She really wanted to pull Senior Brother Xie to ask him what he meant by that sentence.

Unfortunately, I don’t have the courage.

Unable to resist her curiosity, she moved closer to Su Yu and took out a candy to coax her: "Xiao Su, sister asks you a question, tell me the truth, and I'll give you this candy, okay?"

He actually treated Su Yu as a child in his words.

It's not Liu Xixi's fault. It's just that Su Yu looks too young. Even though people know that she has a husband, they still subconsciously think that they were engaged as children and haven't gotten married yet.

Su Yu stared at the candy for a while, raised her head, and swallowed: "I'm hungry."

She looked at the person in front of her, and the shape of her pupils changed for a moment, but quickly returned to normal.

I really want to eat her, but I can’t, or I’ll be beaten to death, just like that snake demon.

She still has to find her brother and can't be beaten to death.

I can eat after I find my brother. Su Yu swallowed again and forced herself to look away.

Liu Xixi suddenly felt a chill on her back, as if she was being stared at by a wild beast. She immediately became serious, as a cultivator's intuition can sometimes save lives.

"I'm hungry." Su Yu said again, this time staring at the candy in Liu Xixi's hand.

My thoughts were interrupted and the feeling of being watched instantly dissipated.

Liu Xixi frowned slightly, temporarily putting what just happened behind her mind, and smiled again: "How about this, I'll give you one first, and I'll give you the rest after you answer the questions?"

Su Yu nodded obediently.

Liu Xixi felt so soft-hearted that she couldn't help but pinch the little girl's face and gave her the candy: "How old are you this year?"

Su Yu stuffed the candy wrapper into her mouth and said as she chewed, "Two hundred years old."

Liu Xixi: “…”

Not only Liu Xixi was silent, everyone else was silent as well. Why did this kid just talk nonsense?

Noticing the looks around her, Su Yu blinked innocently. These days, no one believes the truth.

"Forget it, let's not talk about this for now." Skipping this topic, Liu Xixi asked the question that everyone was most concerned about, "Xiao Su, what did you and Senior Brother do in the room last night?"

Jiang Muxue also looked over, wanting to see what Su Yu would say.

It’s no wonder they are curious. The main reason is that Xie Linguang’s words are too ambiguous. What does it mean that you just don’t cry at night? Why should you cry at night?

Has she already cried, or is this... foreshadowing something?

Thinking of a certain possibility, everyone's expression changed again and again, and their eyes on Su Yu became gradually strange. Senior Brother Xie shouldn't be that perverted... right?

What's more, the girl has a husband.

Su Yu swallowed the candy in her mouth and stretched out her hand: "I want more."

Liu Xixi stuffed another candy into her mouth: "If you eat my candy, you must answer my questions."

After eating another candy, Su Yu blinked her big black eyes and said innocently, "Go to sleep."

Seeing everyone's shocked expressions, Su Yu slowly added, "I'm sleeping in the house."

"What about Brother Xie?"

Su Yu shook her head innocently: "I don't know."

It’s hard to say whether they were disappointed or what, but they didn’t get to eat Xie Linguang’s melon, so they dispersed with sighs.

Lin Yan, who had been punished, took the opportunity to show his loyalty: "I said that Senior Brother couldn't be that kind of person. You guys are really too idle."

Jiang Muxue breathed a sigh of relief.

She turned her head to look at Xie Linguang's half-open door and changed the subject away from Su Yu: "Okay, let's all go. Go pack up, we can't stay here for long."

The others quickly said, "Yes, Senior Sister."

Liu Xixi stuffed the remaining candy into Su Yu's hand and said, "Eat it."

Everything in the courtyard happened with Xie Linguang's tacit approval. When he saw people leaving, he sneered, "These little brats."

Not long after, people from the village came to deliver food. When they learned that they were leaving, they earnestly hoped that they could stay for a few more days, especially Su Yu.

The villagers were worried: "But we didn't treat the girl well and neglected her?"

Su Yu shook her head and hid behind Xie Linguang.

Xie Linguang lowered his eyes and glanced at the sleeve that was being held tightly, and said, "She still has relatives who are still alive."

With this simple explanation, the villagers were stopped from talking any further.

After staying for another half a day, the group left the village.

Although Su Yu did not stay, Xie Linguang still left a sword intent at the entrance of the village and threw a few demon-suppressing talismans to protect the village from being harmed by monsters.

Su Yu followed Xie Linguang closely and said sweetly, "Brother, you are such a good person."

It would be better if it wasn’t a monster hunter.

Su Yu grasped the magic weapon on her chest through her clothes, and reminded herself to hide her identity well, lest she die before accomplishing her mission, or she would be killed before even entering the Sword Sect.

Xie Linguang snorted and laughed: "Good guy? That's new."

Xie Linguang has been guarding the Demon-Suppressing Tower for many years. The monsters there call him the evil god, the living king of hell, and the black-faced ghost. This is the first time he is called a good person.
