Chapter 114 Back to Yaochi
The three of them rushed back to the Xiao family exhausted. After a short rest, An Ran couldn't wait to go to Yao Chi to find Yun Reyue to make the antidote for the beauty's sleep.
Xiao Wuwei watched his son, who had just sat down and hadn't even had time to warm up his butt, and then hurriedly followed An Ran to Yaochi. He couldn't help feeling angry, but there was nothing he could do.
He gnashed his teeth and thought: "Why does this brat listen to that little girl An Ran so much? Even if I, as a father, say ten words, I can't say one word better than her!"
However, although Xiao Wuwei was indignant, he also understood that An Ran was eager to save his mother, so he could only sigh inwardly, help them contact Yun Reyue, and let them leave.
Xiao Ze and An Ran had just arrived at Yao Chi and settled down when Yun Piaomiao, dressed in a snow-white dress and with a graceful figure, came over. When she saw Xiao Ze, a graceful and moving smile immediately bloomed on her beautiful face, and she said softly:
"Brother Xiao, you came to Yaochi without informing me in advance. If I neglect you, wouldn't it make me, as the host, seem a little rude?"
When Xiao Ze saw that it was Yun Piaomiao, the indifference in his originally cold and distant phoenix eyes instantly diminished a bit. He looked at the misty clouds and responded:
"Miss Yun, we are here for something important, so we won't stay here for long, so we won't bother you anymore."
"Brother Xiao, you are so polite! You and I are not strangers."
The smile on Yun Piaomiao's face became more and more intense, and there seemed to be some deep meaning in her tone.
Her voice is pleasant to the ears, like a warm spring breeze blowing across your face, which neither feels abrupt nor makes people feel a different kind of comfort. So the two of them began to chat, and the atmosphere was harmonious and pleasant.
An Ran was quite surprised. She didn't expect Yun Piaomiao to know about their entry into the city so quickly. You know, it has only been an incense stick of time since they entered this city, but Yun Piaomiao has already learned the news and came to them in person.
An Ran had once witnessed Yun Piaomiao's fierce and decisive side, so she naturally knew that this woman was definitely not as gentle and harmless as her appearance showed. At this moment, An Ran was secretly thinking about the other party's intention and purpose, while a polite smile appeared on her face.
At this moment, Yun Piaomiao suddenly turned around and asked with a smile: "Miss An is still playing in our secluded family. I thought you had returned to the secular world a long time ago."
When An Ran heard this, she was slightly stunned. She always felt that there seemed to be other meaning hidden in Yun Piaomiao's words, which made people feel a little weird.
However, she quickly came to her senses and replied with a smile: "Yes, the scenery here in your hidden family is so beautiful that I don't want to leave. I want to stay a few more days to appreciate it."
Yun Piaomiao chuckled and did not continue speaking. There was an elusive light flickering in the depths of her bright eyes, which made An Ran's doubts grow stronger.
At this moment, Yun Piaomiao's heart was filled with unprecedented shock! Not long ago at a tea-tasting party, she had met An Ran. At that time, An Ran was only in the initial stage of foundation building, but now he has reached the state of great perfection of foundation building and is about to break through to the Jindan stage!
Yun Piaomiao possesses a special ability that no one knows about—her sharp eyes can see through any obstacles that block her vision. No matter whether it is the protection of magic weapons or the concealment of cultivation by special skills, nothing can escape her eyes.
At this moment, she felt deeply astonished and shocked. This incredible speed of cultivation is simply unbelievable! You know, in this day and age, it is extremely difficult to advance to a higher level on the path of cultivation!
Yun Piaomiao had a myriad of thoughts in her mind, but her face remained expressionless. She said with an impeccable smile on her face.
"It's better to meet by chance than to be invited. Since Senior Brother Xiao has come to our Yao Chi, it's fate. I'll be the host, please enjoy a simple meal together."
An Ran felt a little troubled. At the moment, she just wanted to see Yun Reyue as soon as possible and had no intention of dealing with Yun Piaomiao.
Xiao Ze keenly sensed An Ran's reluctance. A hint of apology flashed across his face, and he spoke softly to Yun Piaomiao.
"I'm so sorry, Miss Yun. We do have urgent matters to deal with, so we may not be able to dine with you. But if there is a chance another day, I will definitely invite Miss Yun to dine with me."
Yun Piaomiao was very smart and could tell at a glance that Xiao Ze didn't want to reveal the details, so she didn't ask any further questions. She nodded obediently and responded in a playful tone.
"Well, I won't bother you anymore! Senior Brother Xiao, don't forget that you still owe me a delicious meal~"
"I will definitely not forget it." Xiao Ze replied solemnly.
Yun Piaomiao said goodbye to the two of them with a smile, then turned around, and the gentle and graceful smile on her face disappeared without a trace in an instant. She walked forward slowly, and suddenly, she stopped and whispered into the air.
"Go check."
She walked all the way to the Yun family. As soon as she stepped into the door, a female disciple in green came up to her and bowed, saying, "Saintess, the Madam is looking for you."
Yun Piaomiao nodded slightly, then turned and walked towards the Zhaiyue Tower where Shui Furong was.
…
Shui Furong was half leaning on the beauty couch, with a lazy look on her gorgeous face. She stretched out her slender, white jade fingers, picked a grape, put it into her mouth, and chewed it slowly.
Yun Piaomiao walked into Zhaiyue Tower, the gentleness on her face disappeared. She stood in front of Shui Furong with an expressionless face and called out.
"Mother, you are looking for me."
Shui Furong seemed not to hear anything and continued to eat her grapes slowly. After a long while, she slowly raised her eyes and looked at Yun Piaomiao, with a complicated look of resentment and hatred in her eyes.
She spoke in a cold voice.
"Did you find the thing?"
Yun Piaomiao still stood there expressionless. She shook her head and said.
"No."
"Useless stuff."
Shui Furong's eyes suddenly widened, and she stood up and slapped her hard.
“Pah.”
The crisp sound of slapping rang out in the room, but Yun Piaomiao's body didn't even shake, as if she was not the one being beaten.
"We have been looking for something for years, but there is still no clue. Aren't you your father's favorite daughter? How come you can't even get a little thing?"
Shui Furong looked furious, as if she wanted to tear Yun Piaomiao to pieces. She slapped Yun Piaomiao hard in the face.
"Useless trash, get out of here."
Yun Piaomiao said nothing and turned around and walked out of Zhaiyue Tower.
