I gritted my teeth and secretly formed two aura spells with my hands. Yin and Yang lightning flashed fiercely, and Xuanxuan subconsciously closed her eyes. Taking this opportunity, I scrambled away from her kitchen knife, then opened the castle gate and rushed out.
After I left the castle and the light disappeared, Xuanxuan realized that I had escaped outside. She roared angrily, broke open the castle gate, and rushed out of the castle waving a kitchen knife.
Fortunately, the bodyguards guarding the door had been killed by Su Xiaoniu long before. I watched Xuanxuan rush out of the castle alone, and my tense heart instantly relaxed.
Done!
As soon as Xuanxuan stepped out of the castle, she, who had previously had a sly smile and an angry expression, suddenly seemed to have lost something. She looked around in a dazed and confused state. Seeing the blood-stained kitchen knife in her hand, she was so scared that she quickly threw it aside.
"Brother Xu Fei?" She noticed me and ran up to me quickly, her little face full of confusion.
A tired smile appeared on the corner of my mouth. I touched her head with a smile and said, "Congratulations on coming back, Xuanxuan..." Then I passed out from exhaustion.
When I opened my eyes again, it was still pitch black in front of me, but my head seemed to be resting on something soft. When I touched it, I realized it was Su Xiaoniu's slender and soft legs. Did I fall asleep on her legs?
"What are you touching?" Su Xiaonu glared at me in embarrassment and anger.
I smiled awkwardly, then saw Xuanxuan squatting on the side, sobbing. I asked Su Xiaoniu what was wrong. She said that Xuanxuan had just asked her what happened before, and perhaps Xuanxuan had forgotten everything that happened after entering the castle, so Su Xiaoniu told her everything word for word.
And then, Xuanxuan was like this.
"The past cannot be undone, so let it go. Xuanxuan, your life has just begun, so don't lose yourself because of the shadow in your heart." I went up to her, touched her head, and comforted her.
"Brother Xu Fei..." Xuanxuan stood up, looked at me for a few seconds with a slightly aggrieved and innocent look, then threw herself into my arms and sobbed.
Su Xiaoniu crossed her arms and looked at me with interest, which made me feel very uncomfortable.
Finally, I used the method I often used to coax Su Xiaoniu, and tried it on Xuanxuan. As a result, the effect was very good. I even suspected that this trick might be a secret skill for coaxing girls. Fortunately, Su Xiaoniu didn't know, otherwise she would have beaten me to death.
"Brother Xu Fei, sister-in-law, although I'm not quite sure what I just experienced, I seem to have learned one thing in my heart, and understood a truth, that is, no matter how high and mighty you are, you must never look down on others. Especially Brother Xu Fei and sister-in-law, you will always be my brother and sister-in-law. Even if I become successful in the future, I will never look down on you, nor will I think I am great, nor will I show off my fame, wealth, ability, etc. You will always be my family." Xuanxuan said very seriously.
"Now that you've realized this, it's worth all my efforts. I was almost hacked to death by you." I joked.
Su Xiaoniu and Xuanxuan both laughed.
After we calmed down, Xuanxuan quickly recovered from her previous pessimistic state. In the blink of an eye, a youthful and lively smile appeared on her face. When I saw this smile, I felt a sense of intimacy like a spring breeze. This is the real Xuanxuan I know!
At that moment, a golden light flashed ahead, and the old man's ethereal voice suddenly rang out: "Pride is arrogance and conceit. When one's self-importance leads to looking down on others, it's called pride. For example, when a son becomes an official and rich, a mother feels proud and flaunts it everywhere. Or someone might have a beautiful dog and feel proud, parading it around the city. Or anyone flaunting one's fame, wealth, abilities, and possessions is called pride. Some people are very capable, possessing high status and talent, and yet look down on others. This is also called pride. Being vain and comparing oneself, refusing to admit defeat when one is inferior to others and dismissing others as unremarkable, is also called pride. Anyone with an inflated self is called pride. Even practitioners can be arrogant, believing they have attained enlightenment and possessed certain wisdom and supernatural powers, and looking down on others. This is all pride. — Congratulations to the three of you for moving on from pride."
The three of us were stunned almost at the same time. What the hell, could it be that all the events that happened just now when Xuanxuan entered the castle and turned into a demon were caused by this "slow recitation"?
