Ye Xiao was quickly led to the pavilion in the courtyard by the maid. He did not stand on ceremony and sat down beside Xiao Chen. Looking at the fine wine and delicacies on the table, Ye Xiao's eyes lit up. "Not bad, not bad. I came at the right time. I just came out of seclusion and there's already such fine wine and delicacies. Haha."
With that, Ye Xiao poured himself a cup and took a sip. His expression was one of extreme happiness.
Seeing Ye Xiao like this, Pretty Lady Hongxiu muttered angrily, "All you know is to drink. Sooner or later, you'll drink yourself to death."
Pretty Lady Hongxiu and Ye Xiao were very close. It could be said that they had grown up together. Ye Xiao was like an older brother. He had always cared for and taken care of Pretty Lady Hongxiu.
Ye Xiao did not care about Pretty Lady Hongxiu's muttering. He was already used to it.
However, during the meal, Ye Xiao keenly discovered a problem. It was the relationship between Xiao Chen, Pretty Lady Hongxiu, and Xiao Chen's attitude towards Pretty Lady Hongxiu.
Xiao Chen had always been cold and indifferent to Pretty Lady Hongxiu. However, this time, when Xiao Chen and Pretty Lady Hongxiu were talking, Ye Xiao actually saw a trace of gentleness in Xiao Chen's eyes. His attitude towards Pretty Lady Hongxiu was no longer as cold as before. At least, he was much gentler.
Ye Xiao did not know whether Xiao Chen's change in attitude towards Pretty Lady Hongxiu was a good or bad thing. As Pretty Lady Hongxiu's brother, he naturally hoped that Pretty Lady Hongxiu could find someone to rely on in the future. However, was Xiao Chen the best candidate?
Xiao Chen was very powerful and was not any weaker than Ye Xiao. He was also the Heir of the Seventh Realm. However, because of Xiao Chen's personality, Ye Xiao did not think highly of Xiao Chen and Pretty Lady Hongxiu.
However, since Pretty Red liked it and Red Lotus didn't seem to object, Ye Xiao couldn't say much. He could only hope that Pretty Red wouldn't be upset in the future.
The change in Xiao Chen's attitude towards Xiu Hongxiu had indeed surprised Ye Xiao, but he did not say anything. He continued to chat with Xiu Hongxiu while drinking his wine.
The banquet was not bad, mainly because Hongxiu was very happy. After all, Xiao Chen's attitude towards her had changed a lot, which made Hongxiu very happy.
After eating and drinking their fill, Ye Xiao left. As for Hongxiu, she naturally stayed in Xiao Chen's cave residence as usual. This silly girl now had her own courtyard in Xiao Chen's cave residence.
She skipped away. Today was definitely the happiest day of her life. It was not for anything else, but because Xiao Chen was finally not so cold to her anymore.
Xiao Chen sighed helplessly as he watched Hongxiu leave. He really did not know what to do with Hongxiu. Forget it, I'll just take it one step at a time. Xiao Chen did not have the time to think about these things at the moment. Increasing his strength and reviving his family were the most important things at the moment. It was also Xiao Chen's only wish at the moment.
After a night of silence, Xiao Chen once again immersed himself in cultivation because he had to wait for Luo Li to return.
It was still the same self-harming cultivation method, but there were some differences. Pretty Lady Hongxiu was always by his side.
Pretty Lady Hongxiu accompanied Xiao Chen almost all the time. She did not disturb Xiao Chen when he was cultivating. Only when Xiao Chen was cultivating, Pretty Lady Hongxiu would personally serve a cup of tea to Xiao Chen.
Knowing that Xiao Chen was eager to improve his strength, Pretty Lady Hongxiu would never disturb Xiao Chen when he was cultivating. This silly girl did not want to be a burden to Xiao Chen.
With Pretty Lady Hongxiu's company, his cultivation became more interesting.
While Xiao Chen was cultivating and waiting for Luo Li's return, seven days had passed. On this day, Mo Qingshu actually returned to the black palace.
At the same time, there was another Immortal Realm expert who returned with Mo Qingshu.
This Immortal Realm expert was also an expert from the Seventh Realm. However, because his cultivation was only at the Profound Immortal Realm, his status in the Seventh Realm was not high.
Originally, Li Qiu had asked Mo Qingshu not to come back for a period of time. After all, Xiao Chen was not someone to be trifled with. However, Mo Qingshu came back on his own after going out for a while.
Of course, Mo Qingshu had his own reasons for coming back. As for this reason, it was because of the Immortal Realm expert beside him.
Following beside Mo Qingshu, the immortal realm mighty figure said with a flattering smile, "Senior Brother Mo, you're making a big fuss this time. Why do you care about a mere junior? Do you really think Xiao Chen can kill you?"
It was because of this Immortal Realm expert's persuasion that Mo Qingshu came back.
According to this person, Mo Qingshu was an Immortal Venerable. How could he be afraid of a junior in the Immortal Realm? Wouldn't that be embarrassing?
Moreover, although Xiao Chen was extremely daring, could he really kill Mo Qingshu in the black palace? That was impossible. Moreover, if they really fought, would Mo Qingshu definitely lose?
Mo Qingshu thought about it and agreed with this person's persuasion. As a dignified Immortal Venerable expert, it was indeed embarrassing that he was scared away by a junior like Xiao Chen. Therefore, after thinking about it again and again, Mo Qingshu came back.
After hearing the words of this Immortal Realm expert, Mo Qingshu nodded and said without any change in expression, "You are right. This matter is indeed too complicated. Why should I be afraid of a junior?"
At this moment, there was no trace of fear on Mo Qingshu's face. Everyone who followed Mo Qingshu back to the black palace had a strange expression on their faces.
The matter between Xiao Chen and Mo Qingshu had already spread in the Seventh Realm. Many people knew about it. However, Mo Qingshu came back after just a few days. Naturally, everyone felt strange.
Could it be that the matter between the two of them had been resolved? Did Xiao Chen agree to let Mo Qingshu go?
Mo Qingshu was naturally displeased by the strange gazes of the crowd. In their eyes, it was as if he was afraid of Xiao Chen.
Humph! Xiao Chen, this old man will stay in the black palace and not go anywhere. I would like to see what you can do to me. Mo Qingshu snorted coldly in his heart.
As an expert of the older generation, Mo Qingshu kept telling himself that Xiao Chen was just a kid and there was no need to be afraid of him.
Mo Qingshu tried to cheer himself up, but he forgot one thing. If it wasn't for Li Qiu's appearance in the main square that day, he would probably have been killed by Xiao Chen's sword.
Sometimes, one couldn't be stupid. Otherwise, one could easily lose one's life. Mo Qingshu was like this now. He didn't know who gave him the confidence to think that he was no longer afraid of Xiao Chen. Unfortunately, he didn't see through it clearly. All of this was just an illusion.
