Xu Xianxian was right. Her strength far exceeded that of Liu Wentao and his wife.
The reason why she was willing to stay was because the fragments of the secret book really made her greedy. She had to take this opportunity even though she knew it was dangerous.
This is a classic case of the benefits outweighing the risks.
To become a strong person step by step, going against the current is the most basic characteristic. If she always gives up when she encounters difficulties, then she, Xu Xianxian, might as well go back to her hometown to attend college, and then live a few years of comfortable and ordinary life, and then be killed by the Black Tower again.
But since Xu Xianxian had chosen to come out, she didn't intend to die in mediocrity. In this life, she wanted to resist, to seek revenge, and to become stronger.
Become stronger.
The confidence in Xu Xianxian's eyes made Liu Wentao a little surprised. The little apprentices he had seen in the past were all cute babies who pretended to be stupid and rarely showed relatively mature expressions.
He couldn't help but ask, "How strong can you be...?"
"Master, my sister is a Force user." Xu Xianxian chose not to reveal her own strength, but just chuckled: "Do you think I... don't have any tricks?"
If she said that she was a ninth-level martial artist, her credibility would not be high, but if she used her sister as a cover, then the nature of the matter was different.
“…”
Liu Wentao was stunned for a moment before he slowly understood the meaning behind the words. He asked in disbelief, "You mean...?"
No matter how I look at this disciple of mine, he doesn't look like a person with the Force!
"Master, please don't ask. Give me some privacy." Xu Xianxian didn't explain, but just shook her head repeatedly: "Don't hesitate, take the train home today to avoid any unexpected changes."
She then sighed again: "After this, the weather in Nanwuzhou may change."
If even a small portion of the information Hela knew was true, the entire Southern Wuzhou would face an unprecedented crisis.
"Little fairy, what did you see?"
After hearing this, Liu Wentao fell silent, while his master's wife Zhang Xin looked solemn and couldn't help but ask.
She knew that Xu Xianxian usually liked to act cute, but when it came to important matters, she probably wouldn't scare people casually.
"Someone wants to open the ancient ruins underground, attracting unimaginable extinction power."
Xu Xianxian hesitated for a moment, but still said it simply.
"Ancient ruins..."
Zhang Xin was stunned and fell into deep thought.
Although she had never been to the ancient ruins, she had heard of them and knew that they were not places that mortals could set foot in. Level five and six martial artists were very powerful for ordinary people, but they were not enough to deal with those mysterious ruins.
"In that case, your master's wife and I will take Xiaowen and the others away first."
Although Liu Wentao has a gentle personality, he has always been decisive in doing things and is not a hesitant person on such issues.
He even trusted Xu Xianxian unconditionally and did not investigate the true extent of the matter. After all, in his eyes, Xu Xianxian was the successor to the sect leader, and the future revival of the shuttle boxing was entirely in her hands.
"It's just... Xianxian, if this is true, are you sure you can survive?"
Liu Wentao looked at the little girl in front of him with an extremely serious and solemn expression.
If it is really related to ancient ruins, how can this little apprentice guarantee that he can survive?
"I'm not sure." Xu Xianxian never deliberately concealed anything about this kind of thing. Her scarlet eyes were filled with unusual seriousness. "But I have to try. This is related to my next promotion."
Liu Wentao was silent for a long time before he slowly sighed and said in a deep voice, "You must come back alive."
As a master, he is just a guide. He will not and cannot interfere with the choices made by his apprentice.
......
Liu Wentao and his wife then booked train tickets and returned to Hongjing City that same day with their daughter, Pan Sheng, and Helavilan.
Originally everyone came here together, but now, only Xu Xianxian is left alone, still staying in Nanyun City to continue participating in the semi-finals of the school competition.
The leader of the Lion Claw Sect and the deputy leader of the Wind Leg Sect have not returned for two days, which has aroused the suspicion and vigilance of the two sects. Although it has not been reported yet, if they cannot be contacted in another day or two, the guard system may be notified.
"Xu Xianxian, my father and his family are missing. Do you know anything?"
When Xu Xianxian was sitting in the corner waiting with a bored look on her face, the male classmate whose name she couldn't remember suddenly came over and questioned her with a gloomy face.
"..." Xu Xianxian raised her head, tossed her twin ponytails, bit her tender pink lower lip, and looked aggrieved and cute: "I don't know!"
She looks no more than twelve or thirteen years old, and when she looks so pitiful, most people's hearts would melt.
"...Don't give me that! Your master looked at my dad with a strange look the day before yesterday." However, because his father's safety was at stake, the boy was filled with anxiety and remained unwavering. "Did your Suozi Sect set up a trap to capture my dad and the Fengtui Sect's deputy leader?"
"Why do you have to think it has something to do with me?"
Xu Xianxian shrugged her delicate shoulders, puffed out her pink cheeks, and said angrily, "You're slandering me! I'm so cute, I didn't set you up!"
"Stop playing dumb! My dad went looking for you that night!"
Seeing the little girl trying to get away with it by being cute, the boy looked exasperated and blurted out subconsciously.
He knew his father had gone to strangle Xu Xianxian that night, but he hadn't expected his father and Uncle Wen to disappear. This was too shameful a fact to report to the Martial Arts Association immediately.
