Southern suburbs of Kyoto.

Jiaojiao was held in Qiao Zhongguo's arms, and she was amazed by the endless sunflower fields in front of her.

It’s really big!

Her little brat's body now feels like she has entered a sunflower field and can never get out...

Qiao Zhongguo frowned slightly, obviously his mind was not on the scenery in front of him.

Jiaojiao felt her father's tense body, looked up and smiled comfortingly: "Don't worry, Daddy, everything will be fine."

Upon hearing this, Qiao Zhongguo rubbed Jiaojiao's little head with his chin and nodded with a smile.

"Father is not worried. He is just very emotional. Our Qiao family has fought with Shen Yuanbai from Yong Dynasty to Nanli. Today, we will finally meet him openly."

When Qiao Tianjing, who was standing by, heard this, he nodded with a complicated expression.

Qiao Bo didn't have so many complicated thoughts. Anyway, in this life, he would just fight wherever the general pointed. It was very simple.

As Qiao Bo was thinking this, he looked up and saw twenty or so men in black suddenly appear in the distance in broad daylight. The young man in white walking in the middle had handsome features and was very eye-catching. It was Shen Yuanbai!

"General, people are coming!" Job exclaimed.

Upon hearing this, Qiao Zhongguo immediately turned around. The two groups looked at each other from a distance, testing each other in silence.

At this time, Shen Yuanbai raised his right hand and waved it forward gently. The men in black behind him drew their swords and stepped forward with swift steps and murderous intent!

Upon seeing this, Qiao Bo immediately drew out the long sword from his waist and stood in front of Qiao Zhongguo with no fear on his face.

Jiaojiao sat steadily in Qiao Zhongguo's arms, her eyes passing over the assassins rushing towards them and fixed on Shen Yuanbai who had not moved in the distance.

At this moment, the Merit Mall next to her was floating in the "Rebound Talisman" column.

Whether he lives or dies today depends on Shen Yuanbai's own choice.

If he had intended to kill everyone from the beginning, then all the people he brought today, including himself, would have died at the hands of their own swords under the effect of the "rebound talisman".

But Jiaojiao didn't move yet. She frowned slightly, always feeling that Shen Yuanbai in the distance was... a little different from what she remembered.

The group of assassins rushed to within ten steps of him. Qiao Bo had already raised his knife, and even Jiaojiao had extended a finger. But at this moment, a shout suddenly came from afar:

“That’s enough!”

As soon as these words were spoken, all the assassins in front of him retreated like a tide, well-trained and without hesitation.

Jiaojiao raised her head and looked towards the source of the voice, only to see another Shen Yuanbai walking towards her in the distance. Although she couldn't see his expression clearly, she could tell that he walked steadily and unhurriedly.

Jiaojiao's eyes lit up slightly.

It’s just right, this is him!

She had just felt that the first "Shen Yuanbai" who appeared was weird. Now, compared with the real person, although he was very similar, he lacked some of the coldness and sharpness.

She was still wondering if Shen Yuanbai had been worn down by the successive setbacks from Yong Dynasty to Nanli...

It seems that Shen Yuanbai is still cautious. He must have sent people to investigate carefully before coming, and did not find any ambush.

But he was still worried, so he deliberately found a stand-in to act out this scene, and had the killer make a feint attack to force the person in the dark to show up.

But this time Shen Yuanbai was indeed "disappointed". Only four of them came because she might need to use the Merit Mall today, so the fewer people who witnessed it, the better.

As for the rest of the Qiao family's secret guards, they all stayed in the villa and protected Meng Guxue together with A'er.

Shen Yuanbai is not the only one who is cautious. Who knows if this will be his strategy of making a feint to the east and attacking in the west?

After all, Yinzhu is Shen Yuanbai's very useful right-hand man, so she did not show up at this time.

The real Shen Yuanbai has stopped beside the substitute, and the death warriors are guarding him closely.

"Master Qiao, how are you?"

Shen Yuanbai spoke first. He raised his lips slightly, and his tone was so familiar that it seemed like an old friend meeting again.

Qiao Zhongguo had a smile on his face, but it didn't reach his eyes. "I didn't expect that meeting Master Shen again would be like this."

Shen Yuanbai chuckled and said straight to the point:

"Forget about the other pleasantries. Sir Qiao invited me here today. What is your intention?"

Qiao Zhongguo did not deny it, but asked calmly: "Mr. Shen, why did you come here when you knew there was a tiger in the mountain?"

Upon hearing this, Shen Yuanbai's gaze fell directly on Jiaojiao, and the meaning could not be more obvious.

He came here just for Jiaojiao!

The strange thing is that there doesn't seem to be any murderous intent in his eyes.

"If possible, I would like to talk to Miss Qiao alone."

"I think Miss Qiao can protect Meng Guxue unscathed without any harm. My mortal body with the tendons of my right hand broken can't pose any threat to Miss Qiao, right?"

"How about the pavilion right next to it?"

Shen Yuanbai was frank. Since the Qiao family set up this situation today, they must be trying to gain something from him.

In order to clear up the confusion, he didn't mind helping the Qiao family.

Qiao Tianjing raised his eyebrows slightly when he heard this. Even he did not expect that Shen Yuanbai would be so anxious.

Jiaojiao turned her head and looked at Qiao Tianjing. The two siblings had already discussed this matter in depth. At this time, Jiaojiao patted her chest, indicating that she had already used the "rebound talisman".

Qiao Tianjing looked meaningful and nodded slightly.

"Daddy, I'm leaving!"

Jiaojiao turned her head and said something. Qiao Zhongguo frowned, but still put Jiaojiao down.

The two groups slowly walked to the two sides of the pavilion and stood facing each other. At this time, Jiaojiao walked out alone with her short legs.

Seeing this, Shen Yuanbai also stepped forward.

At this point, the two parties have reached a tacit understanding.

Jiaojiao never thought that one day she would be sitting alone in the pavilion with Shen Yuanbai, and at this time she looked only three years old.

Naturally, Shen Yuanbai could not have expected that after fighting with everyone for so long, it turned out that the biggest variable had been lurking in front of him in the form of a child.

At this time, Shen Yuanbai had already taken his seat, and opposite him, Jiaojiao was still struggling to get on the stool...

Qiao Tianjing saw this scene from afar: "......"

What a mistake. I forgot that my little sister couldn't even get on the stool...

Qiao Jiaojiao: “…”

It’s collapsed. This whole section is collapsed!

When she finally sat down, she looked up, panting, and saw Shen Yuanbai with his hands clasped on his chest, looking at her leisurely.

Jiaojiao was slightly surprised and thought to herself: Shen Yuanbai didn't even hit me from behind with a hammer while I was climbing up the chair!

Is he really not going to kill me? Then where is my three-year-old death? Or has everything changed and this three-year-old death no longer exists?

Jiaojiao's thoughts turned slightly. At this time, Shen Yuanbai on the opposite side had already spoken lightly, "Miss Qiao, nice to meet you."

Jiaojiao opened her mouth, but before she could think of how to respond, Shen Yuanbai said calmly:

"I used to not believe in ghosts and monsters, but Miss Qiao has helped the Qiao family and my brother to this extent. Although I don't know where you came from, I don't believe that you only have the mind of a child."

"How about we treat each other as equals today and have a good talk?"

Jiaojiao looked serious when she heard this, and her young face showed a steadiness and understanding that was inconsistent with her age. She said in a calm voice:

"In this case, it is better to obey than to be respectful."
