Chapter 681 The Stupid Monster in the Group Pet Article (26)

An hour later, Xie Linguang left the main peak.

Thinking of the conversation just now, he looked annoyed.

Solving one problem with another is not a wise move no matter how you look at it, but in order to solve the problem once and for all, this is the best way.

An hour ago, Xie Linguang arrived at the main peak, walked through the nine-curve corridor, and stepped into the backyard. The sect leader was playing chess with Jiang Muxue.

Perhaps because she couldn't get down, Jiang Muxue said, "Dad, please let me go."

The clan leader scolded with a hint of affection: "No matter how old you are, you still have the temper of a child."

Having said that, he still deliberately gave up a few moves.

Jiang Muxue spotted Xie Linguang first and said with a smile, "Senior Brother Xie is here."

Xie Linguang nodded politely, then turned to the sect master, looked straight ahead, and saluted calmly: "Disciple greets Master."

The leader nodded with a smile: "Lin Guang is here."

Jiang Muxue took the opportunity to say, "Dad, I can't beat you, let my brother play with you."

After saying that, she took the initiative to give up her seat, coughed lightly, and said seriously: "Since my father and senior brother have something to discuss, I will go back first." She winked at the sect leader and hinted, "Don't forget what you promised me just now."

The clan leader snorted and waved his hand to let her go. He then extended his hand to indicate the position of the other party: "Lin Guang, come and play the next game with me."

Continuing with the previous chess game, Xie Linguang pursed his lips with a serious expression. The sect leader didn't say anything, and he wouldn't speak either. The black and white pieces gradually became anxious.

The sect leader would occasionally speak, but he would only talk about some ordinary sect affairs, like a casual conversation.

Xie Linguang did not take it lightly. Thinking of Jiang Muxue who had just left, his eyelids twitched.

Finally, the sect leader got to the point.

——What do you think of Axue?

——How about I marry her to you?

After leaving the main peak, these two sentences were still echoing in Xie Linguang's mind.

How did he answer at that time?

He subconsciously thought of another person, who looked dull most of the time, but occasionally clever and quirky, with one little thought after another, but he didn't know how to conceal it, so people could see through it at a glance.

After a moment of silence, Xie Linguang said, "Junior sister, you have a fairy-like appearance, beautiful and intelligent, but I already have someone in my heart."

In the face of the sect leader's seemingly nonchalant questioning, Xie Linguang said, "She is a woman I met by chance at the foot of the mountain. We have... decided to become Taoist couples."

After saying these words, Xie Linguang knew that he could not play chess any further, so he stopped, stood up, and waited for the sect leader's decision.

The smile on the sect leader's face disappeared, and he looked at him with a serious look, not saying anything for a long time.

Xie Linguang remained calm from beginning to end.

After an unknown amount of time, the clan leader withdrew his gaze and snorted coldly: "I think you are not worthy of Axue."

Xie Linguang breathed a sigh of relief.

The task progress bar suddenly jumped forward a large space, and the system was startled: [What's going on? ]

Su Yu was sleeping soundly and knew nothing.

As he reached the door, Xie Linguang's eyes fixed and his hand was on the hilt of the sword. There was someone in the room.

The next moment, he suddenly relaxed.

When I opened the door, it was indeed Su Yu, who was sleeping soundly on the bed, snoring softly. She seemed to be dreaming about food, smacking her lips, and had no idea that someone had broken into the room.

Xie Linguang stepped out and looked outside the door. He was not mistaken. This was his room.

Su Yu's room is next door.

Walking to the bedside, Xie Linguang had an inexplicable look on his face, with very complicated emotions in his eyes.

In just two hours, he had a new Taoist companion.

No matter what, this matter was his fault. When Su Yu woke up, he would tell her the truth.

If she is unwilling, then forget it now and he will find another way. If she is willing, he does not need her to fulfill her obligations as a Taoist partner, but just an extra title, and he will give her enough compensation later.

Half of the quilt was kicked off. Xie Linguang picked it up, put it on the small couch beside him, and went to Su Yu's room to get a new quilt to cover her.

The little girl was sleeping in a restless position, twisting and turning, and her clothes were messy as if they had been ravaged by something.

Xie Linguang couldn't bear to watch it anymore, so he reached out and pulled her collar.

"What's this?"

Suddenly seeing something, Xie Linguang reached out and picked out the red rope around the girl's neck. The red rope was very ordinary, but the jade pendant underneath was not ordinary at all.

The jade pendant is emerald green and shining, and is definitely not an ordinary item.

If Xie Linguang was not mistaken, this should be a magical weapon, of a fairly high grade.

He was very sure that he had never given this magic weapon to Su Yu, and he himself had never even seen it.

The system screamed frantically in Su Yu's mind: [Host, wake up! Your identity is about to be exposed!!!]

Su Yu hummed and said vaguely: "Don't make noise..."

System: [Host, wake up! ! ! ]

Su Yu's eyelids moved, her thick eyelashes like a fan trembled twice, and she struggled to open her eyes a crack, but the confusion in her eyes clearly showed that she was not awake yet.

Xie Linguang's figure gradually became clear in his eyes.

Su Yu blinked slowly and said, "Why are you in my room?"

Xie Linguang was playing with the jade pendant in his hand, wondering whether he should inject spiritual power into it to see what it could be used for. This thought was interrupted by Su Yu who suddenly woke up.

He smiled at the question, "Your room?"

Su Yu slowly woke up and suddenly felt a cold sensation on her neck. She looked down and found that the jade pendant was gone. When she looked again, it was in Xie Linguang's hand.

!!!

At that moment, the demonic power in her body was frightened and ran wild. Su Yu suddenly woke up, snatched the jade pendant back and put it on, and suppressed the demonic power that was about to move.

Su Yu covered her chest in shock, looking unhappy, and complained: "Why did you touch my things?"

Xie Linguang frowned slightly. He seemed to have sensed a demonic aura just now. It was very faint and fleeting, but it could not be ignored.

"Why are you looking at me?" Su Yu blinked guiltily, saying, "Apologize."

"……Feel sorry."

Xie Lingguang's eyes were still full of inquiry: "Where did the magic weapon come from?"

Su Yu held the jade pendant tightly through her clothes and licked her lips nervously: "Sister Liu gave it to me."

"Sister Liu?"

"She's the one who killed monsters with you. She gave me a lot of candy. She's a very nice person." After saying that, Su Yu silently added, "She's better than Sister Jiang."

After hearing this, Xie Linguang had an impression: "Her."

Liu Xixi is the disciple of Elder Qifeng, so it is not surprising that she has a high-level magic weapon, but——

"You can't use that magic weapon."

Most high-level magic weapons require spiritual power to activate. Su Yu has no spiritual power, so she cannot use them even if she holds them in her hands. If no one is there to protect her, it would be like a child holding gold, which would easily attract covetous attention.

Although the magical weapons that Xie Linguang had given her before were of high quality, they were among the few that did not require magical power to activate.

Su Yu hugged the jade pendant tightly, as if afraid that he would snatch it away: "It looks good when you wear it."

Xie Linguang was startled, then laughed and said, "If your words were to get out, I'm afraid everyone would attack you."

"I'm not afraid as long as my brother is here."

Xie Linguang chuckled, the corners of his lips curled up a bit: "You are good at finding trouble for me."

Seeing that he really believed it, Su Yu rolled her eyes, coughed and changed the subject: "Brother, are you going to the Demon Suppression Tower tomorrow?"

Without waiting for Xie Linguang to ask, she said with sparkling eyes: "Can I go? I want to go in and take a look."
