Ling Xiang thought about it and nodded: "That's a good idea. I'll make a plan right away."
Xuanyuan Qi drank a spoonful of soup gracefully, savoring it with endless aftertaste, and said, "This was my idea, and I want to participate!"
Ling Xiang raised an eyebrow: "You're involved? Have you made the crossbow? You're biting off more than you can chew, Your Highness, don't you understand?"
Being looked down upon by Ling Xiang, Xuanyuan Qi said with a half-smile, "You don't think that I only have the manpower to make crossbows, do you?"
Ling Xiang looked at Xuanyuan Qi steadily.
As the main villain in the later part of the book, she knew very well how strong Xuanyuan Qi's real power was. Apart from anything else, the dark night demons in his hands alone, each of them had an extremely good field, and they were all leaders in their corresponding fields!
If he hadn't lacked the halo of the protagonist and been nailed to the pillar of shame as an evil villain, it would be hard to say who would become the emperor in the end, him or Nangong Yu.
After carefully reviewing the plot about Xuanyuan Qi in the book, Ling Xiang looked at the ultimate villain in front of him and suddenly realized that after knowing him for so long, this devil didn't seem to have done anything bad in principle except for his bad mouth and annoying behavior.
It seems that she has to redefine this devil.
"I am superficial, Your Highness. I would love to have you join me. I will discuss the plan with you once I have thought of it."
After discussing the business, Xuanyuan Qi cast a ban and asked Ling Xiang: "Three days ago, a spiritual master came to the Zhenguo Marquis Mansion. What did he come for?"
"You don't know?" Ling Xiang was surprised.
Xuanyuan Qi shook his head: "Tell me quickly, what is he doing here? This matter is very important."
Ling Xiang was incredulous: "He said he was asked by someone to treat the scars on my face and gave me a pill to remove them. I thought he was the one who invited him. If it wasn't you, who could it be?"
Xuanyuan Qi thought about Helian Xiao's movements and guessed that it was Nangong Yu who asked Helian Xiao to remove Ling Xiang's scar.
However, Nangong Yu has always had only Gao Zhenzhen in his eyes. When did he start to care about Ling Xiang?
"Your Highness, do you know who it is?" Ling Xiang asked, but Xuanyuan Qi was so focused on his thoughts that he didn't hear her question.
Ling Xiang was puzzled and moved closer to him and asked, "Prince, what are you thinking about?"
Xuanyuan Qi suddenly came back to his senses. Seeing the girl's face so close to him, he coughed and asked, "So, did you take the pill he gave you? Did the scar disappear?"
Ling Xiang nodded and pointed at the scar on her face and said, "I took it. The medicine is very effective and the scar has disappeared. The scar above was put on by me."
Xuanyuan Qi stared at Ling Xiang's face and reached out to lift her veil.
Ling Xiang quickly covered her face: "It's not like your Highness hasn't seen my face before, there's nothing good about it."
"Let me take a look." Xuanyuan Qi was very stubborn. He gently lifted Ling Xiang's veil and reached out to touch the scar on her face.
"No, I'll do it myself!" Ling Xiang knew that Xuanyuan Qi would not give up until he achieved his goal, so she simply did it herself and removed the fake scar.
The face that once belonged to Ling Xiang was revealed intact. After these days of conditioning, her skin was even better than before, and it was becoming more and more like the face of a modern-day Riemann, bright and vibrant, with delicate features that made people unable to take their eyes away...
After waiting for a while, Ling Xiang glued the scar back on and put on the veil. "By the way, Your Majesty, you haven't answered me yet. Do you know who invited him here? Who is he?"
Xuanyuan Qi looked at Ling Xiang intently. While he was thinking, he noticed someone outside and removed the restriction: "He's coming."
He? Who?
Ling Xiang was puzzled and looked outside the door.
At this time, Helian Xiao, who had finished lunch alone, came over. Seeing that the two of them not only ate together, but also opened the ban to talk in private, he suddenly felt like his cabbage was being eaten by a pig.
Xuanyuan Qi was very unhappy that his pleasant time together was interrupted, and he almost used his eyes to make Helian Xiao disappear on the spot.
Compared to Xuanyuan Qi, Ling Xiang was much more polite: "Senior, are you satisfied with lunch?"
Helian Xiao nodded and slowly sat down, looking like an immortal:
"Thank you for saving me, young lady. I haven't had time to introduce myself. I am the master of the Dan Palace, and my Taoist name is Chengxuan. I am going through a very terrible thunder tribulation this time, and I am fortunate to have been saved by you, young lady. I calculated with my fingers and found that you and I have a destiny as a master and disciple. If you are willing, I will immediately accept you as my disciple and teach you everything I have learned in my life."
Although Helian Xiao looked untainted by the world, Ling Xiang always felt that he looked more like a charlatan who was deceiving others. She secretly glanced at Xuanyuan Qi, asking with her eyes whether what Helian Xiao said was true.
Xuanyuan Qi raised his eyebrows, thinking that Helian Xiao wanted to eat young grass, but he didn't expect that he wanted to take a disciple?
Ling Xiang is so talented, and Helian Xiao is very picky when he takes a liking to him.
However, Helian Xiao has a very good relationship with Nangong Yu's father. This time he came out of seclusion to treat Gao Zhenzhen. He must love Nangong Yu very much because of his love for Nangong Yu.
Thinking about it this way, wouldn't Ling Xiang's apprenticeship to Helian Xiao be related to Nangong Yu again?
No, he couldn't take the risk.
Xuanyuan Qi transmitted a voice: "Didn't you just ask me who the spiritual master was who came to remove your scar that day? He was right in front of you. Oh, right, he came to the Zhenguo Marquis Mansion after treating Gao Zhenzhen's heart disease at the Qin Palace."
Ling Xiang understood without Xuanyuan Qiming's explanation that it was Nangong Yu who invited the master of the Dan Palace to treat Gao Zhenzhen and remove her scars at the same time.
This incident is also recorded in the original book. Helian Xiao was invited to treat Gao Zhenzhen and later wanted to take Gao Zhenzhen as his apprentice. Now it just happened earlier. Why did Helian Xiao want to take me as his apprentice?
"It is my honor to receive your kindness, senior. But my relationship with His Royal Highness the Prince of Qin is awkward, and you have a past relationship with His Royal Highness the Prince of Qin, so I really cannot accept you as my master." Ling Xiang took out the scar-removing pill that he had made by imitating the scar-removing pill given by Helian Xiao, and returned it to Helian Xiao.
"Thank you for the scar-removing pill. I misunderstood you before, but now I understand your background. I can't take advantage of you for no reason. I'll return the scar-removing pill to you."
Helian Xiao didn't know how Ling Xiang knew all this, but since she already knew it, there was no point in getting to the bottom of it.
Thinking that both Nangong Yu and Ling Xiang said that the relationship between the two sides was not good, Helian Xiao didn't even need to make a choice and said directly:
"I have long since let go of the past. I came into the world this time to sever my worldly ties. Now I am free from all ties. I only need a disciple to inherit my legacy. Ling Xiang, Nangong Yu will not be an obstacle to your becoming his disciple."
In fact, what Ling Xiang cared about was not the relationship between Helian Xiao and Nangong Yu, but the fact that Helian Xiao was Gao Zhenzhen's prospective master. She didn't want to have the same master as Gao Zhenzhen. The thought of calling Gao Zhenzhen "Junior Sister" gave her goose bumps.
"Senior, may I ask how many disciples do you plan to accept?"
Helian Xiao stroked his beard and said, "You are enough for me."
