Chapter 973 Xuxu, it’s me
Jiang Yucheng’s heart, which had been relieved because his wife and children were safe, suddenly rose again when he heard the cry of the person in his arms.
His usually solemn face also showed some tension and anxiety, and the hand holding the person suddenly tightened,
"Don't cry, I'm here."
He carefully checked his wife's body and saw that she was obviously more frail than the two children. She even lost a shoe. His eyes suddenly froze with frost,
"Did they attack you?"
Wenren Qiqi was about to say no, but she caught a glimpse of the people at the door and the tribesmen next to her. She immediately lowered her head, showing a look of grievance and sadness,
"Forget it, they are elders of the tribe, and it's not the first time they have done this."
She didn't say specifically what this thing was, but Wenren Qiqi had already forced her way back to the tribe from abroad through the blood technique, and was suppressed again because of the explosion of demonic power. She was much more frail than Jiang Xuxu and Jiang Huai.
Combined with Jiang Yucheng's question just now, everyone present instantly got the answer in their hearts -
the elders did take action.
The Xuanmen people and the Monster Management Bureau outside the door looked at the Wenren clan with a little more contempt and condemnation.
The Wenren clan members' originally righteous faces were somewhat shaken when facing these condemning eyes at the door.
In fact, they were still a little unconvinced.
After all, when Wenren Jiuye personally led people in just now, he didn't look like he was going to fight anyone.
But with Wenren Qiqi's behavior, coupled with the sudden outbreak of several powerful demonic powers in the main hall earlier, the confidence of the clan elders who were responsible for guarding the door was insufficient.
Although it was wrong for Wenren Qiqi to bring Jiang Xuxu to force his way
in, they were still clansmen after all, and it was impossible for them to really kill. Not to mention that an elder of such a level would attack a younger person, which would be considered bullying.
For a while, the arrogance of the Wenren clan was weakened.
Jiang Xuxu and Jiang Huai heard Wenren Qiqi's words of "selling badly", and they looked at each other, lowered their heads silently, and cooperated very well.
With Wenren Qiqi's aggrieved crying, the family of four attracted the sympathy of everyone present.
At this time, Wenren Jiuyue came out holding one of Wenren Qiqi's shoes: ...
Listening to her suggestive "slander", Wenren Jiuyue just stood silently behind the screen wall, and did not continue to walk out. He just took a look at the shoe in his hand, and moved his fingertips lightly, and the shoe automatically fell to the ground and flew out.
Wenren Qiqi was still leaning against Jiang Yucheng and whimpering about her grievances, when she saw a shoe with short legs jumping towards her. When she looked closely, she found that the foot under the shoe was a small fox leg transformed by demonic energy.
The shoe ran to Wenren Qiqi's feet and returned to its original state with a bang.
Wenren Qiqi realized who the demonic spirit that disappeared along with the little fox leg belonged to. The howling sound on her lips paused for a moment, and then she fell silent, looking at the shoe without saying a word.
Jiang Yucheng recognized that it was her shoe, but did not ask how this shoe that "ran" here could be.
After he knew that he had a half-demon wife and a daughter who was good at various mystical arts, he had learned to remain calm and composed in the face of all kinds of strange things. He
let the person go, then squatted down. The man, who had always been reserved and steady, let his wife's hand rest on his shoulder, let her lean on him, and pulled up her bare ankle with one hand. He
took out a handkerchief and wiped the soles of her feet clean, and then put the shoe on her carefully.
Without asking any more questions, he only glanced at his wife and his son and daughter beside him, and said softly,
"Let's go home."
Before leaving, he naturally did not forget to thank the people who came on his side.
These people came for Xuxu or Wenren Qiqi, and as a father and husband, he had to express his gratitude on their behalf.
The group originally came because they were worried that Jiang Xuxu and her family would suffer losses. Now that they saw that they were fine, they immediately prepared to leave.
People in the Xuanmen and the demon clan do not pay attention to the etiquette of thanking each other.
But before leaving, Jiang Zhan was stopped by Wenren Baixue alone.
Looking at the red rope that had disappeared from his wrist, Wenren Baixue glared at him unhappily,
"The rope is meant to be broken when you are in a critical situation. You broke it for a trivial matter like opening a door, wasting my fox hair!"
Jiang Zhan saw that she was a little angry, thought about it, and lowered his head to type,
[I'm sorry.]
[And thank you.]
Wenren Baixue glanced at him and said unhappily,
"Anyway, I will only give you this one, and there will be no more after you use it up!"
Jiang Zhan lowered his head to type, but before he finished, he heard Wenren Baixue continue,
"Unless you beg me."
Jiang Zhan paused in typing, silently deleted the half-typed words, and re-entered,
[Please. 】
Wenren Baixue was speechless after hearing these two bland words. She stared at Jiang Zhan for a long time, then waved her hand.
"Let's go!"
After a pause, she said,
"I'll give you a new one later. Don't use it casually this time!"
Jiang Zhan was a little surprised. He felt the similar aura and kindness of the person in front of him and his aunt, which made him feel a little closer.
With a twitch of his mouth, he smiled at her with sincere gratitude.
This time, he didn't type anymore, but opened his mouth and said to her silently,
"Thank you."
He thought, after returning, he would ask Xuxu if he could prepare some gifts for this foxy cousin.
For example, something to protect the fur...
Jiang Yucheng and his group went directly back to the Jiang family's villa in Beijing. On the way back, both sides briefly explained what happened today.
Including what happened when Jiang Huai was trapped in the clan garden.
Especially the awakening of Jiang Huai's demon blood.
But Jiang Huai himself had no impression, because whether the restriction placed on him by Wenren Qiqi was lifted or the demon blood awakened, he had been in a state of sleep.
He woke up only after Jiang Xuxu and the others broke into the clan garden. When he woke up, the "little aunt" was beside him.
She comforted him from the discomfort after the demon blood awakened, and told him that Jiang Xuxu and Wenren Qiqi came to see him.
She also said, "Someone will come to pick you up soon."
After saying that, she left, but before leaving, she seemed to make a mark on the barrier.
Then, Chu Beihe came.
He broke the barrier with golden light and brought him back to Jiang Xuxu and Wenren Qiqi.
Chu Beihe also said,
"The mark left by Wenren Muya on the barrier revealed the aura of the barrier that was originally hidden, so I could follow the aura to find the location of the barrier."
Because of Wenren Baiyi's request, Wenren Muya could not destroy the barrier by herself to let Jiang Huai leave, so she deliberately left a gap there.
Wenren Qiqi was not surprised by this,
"Your little aunt has always been like this. She seems to care nothing, but she always has her own yardstick in her heart."
She is also one of the few elders in the clan who treats her equally and even takes care of her privately.
Now she has grown up, but her children are still taken care of by her.
Wenren Qiqi thought that she would have to bring her children to pay her respects to the "old man" someday.
Jiang Xuxu didn't know what Wenren Qiqi was planning. After everyone was settled, she finally had time to think about the golden halo that suddenly appeared on her and Chu Beihe's wrists.
She stopped him in the garden and thanked him earnestly,
"I know that you deliberately acknowledged your relationship with me in order to help me in the Wenren Clan Garden. I don't know why a new contract power has reappeared in us, but I promise you that I will find a way to unlock it..."
She said it seriously, as if she didn't want to embarrass him but also vaguely drew a line between them, but Chu Beihe felt a tightness in his chest when he heard it.
He looked at her, with a hint of helplessness in his dark eyes. He opened his mouth, his voice was as low as a cold spring, but with a hint of nostalgia. He
spoke softly to her,
"Xu Xu, it's me."
