Chapter 225 The Deadly Little Ancestor
"Father!"
"Father! Father!"
Ye Xi rushed back and pounded on the tightly closed door of the room, startling the two people inside who were doing their business.
"Damn it, Xixi is back!"
Ye Luo's hand, which was supporting her on the bed, went limp, and she collapsed onto the bedding, whereupon a strong body covered her.
He nudged the man behind him with his elbow, warning him not to push his luck, but the rapid breathing coming from beside his ear made his waist tremble.
"Ignore her!"
Jun Yi, a hint of displeasure on his face, flipped him over and kissed him, chuckling in a hoarse voice, "Good Luo'er, you have to take care of me first..."
Ye Luo stretched out her sweaty hand, pushing away the person who kept approaching, and said angrily, "Ugh...no! It's been over an hour...when are you ever going to stop?!"
"Not over yet." Jun Yi chuckled softly and kissed his still-chattering lips, but then the untimely knocking on the door rang out again.
"Daddy, Daddy, open the door! Open the door!!"
Her commotion dampened Jun Yi's enthusiasm by half, and he clicked his tongue in displeasure, "Ling Qing, coax the young master away!"
Ling Qing: "..."
Sure enough, after a short while, Ye Xi's voice disappeared from outside.
"This little devil... he's really getting to me!"
"Hurry up..." Ye Luo raised her hand to cover her face in embarrassment, her half-exposed eyes giving him a angry look, which made Jun Yi's heart tingle.
"Yes, sir!"
...
About half an hour later, the passion in the room gradually subsided. Jun Yi casually put on an outer robe and walked out of the room, looking refreshed. "Someone, prepare a bath."
"yes."
After giving his instructions, Ling Lie returned and noticed that the sweat and redness on his neck had not yet faded. So he took a cloth and handed it to him, saying, "Your Excellency, Miss Xixi was in danger just now..."
Jun Yi paused, wiping his sweat, his face instantly darkening. He asked, "People from the Glazed Pavilion?"
"No, it's someone from the Zhuo family."
"The Zhuo family?"
Ling Lie recounted the whole story in detail. After listening, Jun Yi threw down the cloth in his hand and said coldly, "It's getting cold. The Zhuo family should be destroyed. Go and make the arrangements."
"Yes, Your Majesty," Ling Lie replied with a bow.
"Is there any unusual activity from the Liuli Pavilion yet?"
"No, I sent people to try to infiltrate the Liuli Pavilion to investigate, but they found that they had closed the mountain and it was impossible to find out anything."
Jun Yi frowned and pondered for a long time before saying, "Send the news from here back to the Dragon Lord Palace and tell the Grand Palace Master and the others to take precautions."
"Yes, I will take care of it right away."
Jun Yi walked back to the inner room thoughtfully and saw Ye Luo leaning against the headboard wearing an outer robe. He said softly, "Why aren't you sleeping?"
Ye Luo rolled her eyes at him and said irritably, "Take me to take a bath. I want to go see Xi Xi later."
"Understood!"
...
The second day's competition was as expected. Xuanwu Palace won a great victory, with Yu Xuan defeating them all in one fell swoop, leaving the people of Wangqing Valley utterly humiliated.
In the fourth group, the Battle Sect faced off against the Myriad Swords Sect, and the two sides were evenly matched, with the Battle Sect narrowly winning; in the fifth group, the Illusionary Sound Sect faced off against the Beast Taming Sect, and the Illusionary Sound Sect won decisively.
Thus ended the first round of the competition. As darkness fell, everyone returned to the inn to rest, looking forward to the second round of the competition the next day.
After dinner, Ming Cang summoned everyone to his study and said solemnly, "Tomorrow's match may be a tough battle, so you should all be mentally prepared."
Xiao Huan said, "Hehe, maybe we won't even need to fight."
"Huh? Why?" Jian Yu asked, puzzled.
Xiao Huan said, "Are you stupid? Five sects advanced in total. There must be one sect that didn't get a spot. Maybe we can directly enter the top three!"
The elder glanced at him and sneered, "You brat, you're quite clever, but you just don't use it for cultivation!"
Xiao Huan, who had been scolded again, scratched his head, muttered a few complaints to himself, and wisely shut his mouth.
"Alright, let's not talk about those lucky things for now." Ming Cang put down his teacup and said, "The four sects competing tomorrow are Tianfeng Sect, Xuanwu Palace, Zhan Sect, and Huanyin Sect. None of them should be underestimated. Everyone must take them seriously!"
"yes!"
Ming Cang glanced at everyone, his gaze lingering on Xiao Huan, who was cracking sunflower seeds. "Especially you, Xiao Huan, stop making up all sorts of excuses. Running away isn't what a man does."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Huan nodded with a bitter expression and muttered softly, "This disciple understands... At worst, I'll just stop drinking water starting tonight..."
After he finished speaking, everyone was speechless, not knowing what to say about him.
Despite possessing extraordinary talent, he willingly chooses to drift through life, wasting every moment.
It seems that words like "diligence" and "effort" are taboo in his dictionary.
After chatting for a while, everyone returned to their respective rooms.
Xiao Huan's room was located not far from Ye Luo's. The two strolled along the corridor under the moonlight, enjoying this rare moment of tranquility.
After a long while, Xiao Huan stopped, looked up at the bright moon in the sky, and sighed deeply, "The moon is full again tonight..."
Ye Luo looked at him and her eyes flickered slightly. "Senior Brother Xiao, are you homesick?"
"Yeah, a little."
"So, is it that you can't go back, or that you don't want to go back?"
After he finished speaking, Xiao Huan stared at him intently, and after a moment he chuckled and said, "Both, I suppose."
"Oh?" Ye Luo raised an eyebrow. It seemed that his guess had been right all along; this guy was most likely a runaway.
"Haha, I didn't expect Senior Brother Xiao to be a rebellious troublemaker!"
What is the 'rebellious phase'?
“Hmm…” Ye Luo tilted her head and thought for a moment, “You can simply understand it as… a silly boy who wants to chase the wind.”
Xiao Huan: "..."
