Inside the Xiao family mansion, in the hall, Xiao Ding and Chu Qian were drinking tea and chatting.
Xiao Ding was a big shot in the late stage of the Spirit Transformation several decades ago. He once challenged three Spirit Transformation cultivators single-handedly and was not at a disadvantage. He was one of the few strong men standing at the top of the world back then. Later, he met the saint girl of the Yao Chi Holy Land, Chu Qian. The two quickly fell in love, and then he stopped caring about the world and lived in seclusion in Yongning City.
Now, several decades have passed, and Xiao Ding's strength has reached the Lianxu realm. In today's Dharma Ending Age, even the leader of a first-rate sect is only in the late stage of Huashen realm. It can be said that in this world, except for a few old monsters, people in this realm are already the highest.
But there is one person who is different, that is Xiao Ning. He relied on the rewards of the system to advance to the Golden Core Realm at the age of 12. Now at the age of 15, he has already reached the middle stage of the Spiritualization Realm. A 15-year-old Spiritualization Realm expert is so terrifying. But Xiao Ning hides his strength. On the surface, he is a teenager at the fourth level of the Foundation Establishment Realm. He is not a gifted person, but he is absolutely mediocre. Even Xiyue, at the age of 17, is already a cultivator at the early stage of the Golden Core Realm. Behind this, Xiao Ning's parents and Xiao Ning helped. There are really few 17-year-old Golden Core cultivators, except for the cheating Xiao Ning.
Xiao Ning led Xiyue to the living room and bowed to his parents. Xiao Ding smiled knowingly, and then Chu Qian walked towards Xiao Ning, stroked his face, and said, "Ning'er, today is the Full Moon Festival. What do you want to eat? Mom will cook it herself~"
"I love to eat whatever my mother cooks." Xiao Ning said, touching Chu Qian's hand.
"Okay! Yue'er, come and help me." Chu Qian said happily to Xiyue, and the latter immediately agreed.
The two walked towards the kitchen. Xiao Ning and Xiao Ding chatted casually. After a while, the food was served. Then the four of them sat down and started to enjoy. Although Xiyue was a maid, the three Xiao family members never treated her as a servant. They had always eaten at the same table with them. Chu Qian had trained Xiyue as her daughter-in-law since she was a child. Now Xiyue is tall and graceful, with a delicate face. She is a popular heroine in modern times.
After the four of them finished their meal, the servants cleared away the dishes. Chu Qian pulled Xiyue aside to chat again. As it got darker, the four of them went out and strolled around the streets.
When they got to the river, the four of them split into two groups. Xiyue held a candied haws in her hand, while Xiao Ning held a large and small amount of food in his hand. When Xiyue arrived at the snack street, she couldn't help but buy one of them to eat. This made Xiao Ning a little overwhelmed. For a moment, he couldn't tell who was the master and who was the servant. "Master, there are lanterns here. Let's go and see them!" He pulled Xiao Ning forward, and Xiao Ning was eating donkey rolls in his mouth, and said incoherently, "Sister, wait a minute!"
The two walked to the place where lanterns were sold, bought one each, and then wrote down their wishes. Xiao Ning asked curiously.
"What are you writing, sis?"
"You can't tell me! If you tell me, it won't work."
Xiyue pouted and said, after the two of them finished releasing the lanterns, Xiyue asked at this time, "Master, what did you write?"
At this time, Xiao Ning also learned to say, "It won't work if I say it~"
"Oh, Master~" At this time Xiyue was like a kitten that was about to explode at any time, pounding Xiao Ning's chest. Xiao Ning felt pain and begged for mercy.
"I'm telling you, what I wrote is that our family will live happily together forever, and then Sister Xiyue will give birth to a bunch of big fat boys for me!"
Xiyue blushed when she heard this and said, "Master, you are a hooligan. I will beat you up!"
Then he chased after Xiao Ning, who shouted as he ran, "You told me to say that! Now you're blaming me again."
The two of them started to make a scene, and it was quite lively. At this moment, at the end of the street, a beggar-like man was hunched over, staring blankly at the river, with two lines of tears running down his cheeks, and muttering something.
“So hungry~”
People only enjoyed the happiness brought by the festival, and no one went to beg for food, even though she was dying. She had been in the city for several days, except for half a steamed bun given to her by an old lady when she first arrived in the city, and she had not eaten since then. Seeing that the weather was getting colder and colder, if she could not find a place to eat and sleep, she probably would not survive tonight and die.
"It's not a bad thing, actually." She said weakly.
The weather was getting colder and colder, and people went home one after another, leaving her alone sitting there.
"Mother, your daughter will help you avenge in the next life~"
Just like that, she gradually lost consciousness. When her eyes closed, two voices reached her ears:
"Master, she fell down~"
"Come, help me put her on my back."
Then she lost consciousness. When she opened her eyes again, she suddenly woke up and saw herself in a room. The room was very large, like a man's room. Looking at her new clothes, she felt uneasy. At this time, two figures walked in from outside, and one of them spoke.
"You're awake."
The girl looked at the other person warily. Xiao Ning gestured to her to be at ease and said, "Don't worry, I have no ill intentions. I saw you fainted on the road and rescued you. The clothes you are wearing are mine. Uh~ my sister changed them for you and she also helped you wash your body. You are fine. You just fainted because you were too hungry."
After hearing this, the girl felt her body and found nothing unusual, so she said with relief: "Thank you both for saving me. I will never forget it. May I ask your name, sir?"
Seeing the girl let down her guard, Xiao Ning said softly, "My name is Xiao Ning, this is Xiyue, you are in the Xiao Mansion now, may I ask your name?"
The girl said: "My name is Qin Yue, I came here to escape famine."
"Are you alone?"
Xiyue asked, and Qin Yin nodded and said, "Yes, there was someone accompanying me when I came down, but later we got lost and got separated, and now I am alone."
Xiao Ning thought, she is not an ordinary woman, she doesn't sound weak at all. Then he asked, "Miss Qin Yin, where are you going to go in the future?"
"I have nowhere to go, and I don't know where to go."
Seeing that the time was right, Xiao Ning invited her, "How about this? If you don't mind, you can come to our house to help us. It just so happens that I am short of someone. What do you think, Miss Qinyin?"
After hearing this, Qin Yin stood up and thanked Xiao Ning. Xiao Ning quickly supported her. He didn't want the future empress to give him such a great gift.
"It's okay, it's okay. Let the girl rest well and we won't bother her anymore. Sister, let's go."
Then the two left.
"Sister, tell the servants to take good care of Miss Qin Yin these days."
Xiyue agreed and asked, "Master, are you really going to keep her by your side?"
Xiao Ning smiled and said, "Why, are you jealous?"
"How could I? But Miss Qin Yin is pretty, and when I was cleaning her, she had a great figure, too. Let me tell you~"
At this time, Xiao Ning was about to listen to the rest, but he saw a hand pulling his ear up and shouting, "Bad young master, you really dare to listen!" Xiao Ning quickly begged for mercy, "Sister, I was wrong, I won't dare to do it again~ Ouch"
