After a long time, Shui QianRou finally recovered from her shock and hurriedly asked, "Sister Xue, is what you said true?"
Li Xue smiled and said, "Can't you tell if it's true or not? That mountain peak has stood there for tens of thousands of years, why would it collapse at such a critical juncture? Besides, Ling Jian, Feng Mo, and the rest are all involved in this matter. You'll know once you ask. Why would I lie to you? Is there any meaning in lying?! "
Shui QianRou, Yu BingYan, and Xiao YanXue fell silent at the same time.
Ever since they came here, the battle between Ling Tian and the Xiao family had always been a knot in Xiao YanXue's heart. Now that she heard about this matter, a sense of bliss welled up in her heart.
"So, so Brother Tian sacrificed so much for me! But I still … I really can't let him down. "Xiao YanXue said as tears streamed down her face.
Shui QianRou was the same, her face flushed red with shame.
Li Xue frowned and said, "What are you all doing? I'm only saying this because I don't want you to misunderstand him. Everyone knows what's going on and it's fine as long as you don't say it out loud. Look at the two of you, you're even crying. If that sentimental guy sees you like this, he'll definitely feel heartache. It's fine if he feels heartache, but he'll definitely find trouble with me. What do you want me to do then?! Besides, he's doing this for your own good. It's a reflection of his deep feelings for you all. You should be happy, why are you crying? "
Xiao YanXue choked and said, "Sister Xue, we, we're just too happy … so happy that we're crying …"
Li Xue was speechless. After a while, she said, "We sisters are here today to drink wine and admire the snow. This wine is the heavenly grade wine 'Daughter's Heart' personally brewed by Brother Tian. As for the purpose of this wine, I'm sure all of you have some idea. Today, I'll make it clear to you sisters that Brother Tian is working so hard because he wants to steal your 'Daughter's Heart'. "
Li Xue had broken through this layer of window paper. All of the girls lowered their heads and fell into silence. In their hearts, they were grateful for Ling Tian's painstaking efforts. Their eyes turned red, and tears welled up in their eyes.
Li Xue was a smart girl, and from observing their expressions, she knew that the girls no longer had a knot in their hearts. It was the best time to strike while the iron was hot, so she signaled to Ling Chen with her eyes. There were some things that needed Ling Chen to say. Although Ling Chen was not the oldest among the girls, Ling Chen's status would always be first. No one could surpass her, and no one dared to try to surpass her! Even someone as prideful as Li Xue wouldn't dare to do so. That was because anyone who tried to surpass him would have to face Ling Tian's most violent rage!
No one was willing to provoke Ling Tian's true anger! That was meaningless!
Ling Chen understood and coughed twice. She said gently, "Sister BingYan, Sister Rou, the two of you will be returning to your respective clans soon to prepare for the generational battle. In the agreement, the two of you are fated to be enemies and will fight to the death. Is that so? "
Yu BingYan and Shui QianRou raised their heads in astonishment. They looked at each other and were speechless for a long time. Finally, they nodded silently.
Ling Chen's tone turned serious. "Now, Young Master wants me to tell you that no matter which one of you is to meet with any mishap. Even the slightest accident is not allowed!"
The two girls did not say anything and listened quietly with a respectful expression.
Ling Chen said slowly, "In a while, I will allocate a separate training ground for the two of you. There are many things that you have to do, but they are also very simple. You have to familiarize yourself with each other's martial arts. You have to understand them completely and then come up with a solution. This must be done within five days! Tamago has already come to fetch Sister BingYan. Young Master said that he can only delay it for five days. You only have five days. "
Time was of the essence and Yu BingYan and Shui QianRou's faces turned serious.
Outside the window, the snow continued to fall as if it would never stop …
The girls who had completely untangled the knot in their hearts rearranged the cups and chopsticks and served the dishes. Xiao YanXue and the rest drank until they were dead drunk. They leaned on each other and fell asleep contentedly …
Only Li Xue was hugging Xiao YanXue's head with her left hand and Shui QianRou with her right hand. Her eyes were fixed on the snowflakes outside the window as she sighed deeply. Tears welled up in her eyes as she murmured, "Brother Tian, I've already solved your biggest headache. Are you … happy?"
She looked out of the window quietly and sighed deeply in her heart. As a modern woman, even if she was monogamous, she would still need the man's efforts to woo her and kneel down to propose. She did not expect that not only did she have to share her husband with another woman, she also had to help him solve the problems of his other wives. Although Li Xue did not say anything, she did not feel good in her heart. But when she thought about how she had pursued him for two lifetimes and how he had suffered so much because of her in her previous life, Li Xue felt terrible in her heart.
Forget it, just treat it as if I owed him in my previous life. This enemy …
After a long time, Li Xue also fell asleep due to the alcohol. She slept very peacefully …
The heavy snow lasted for three days.
In these three days, Yu XiaoRan and the other three were like trapped beasts, unable to find a solution.
Ever since they met Ling Tian three days ago, the person with the highest position in the Ling Family Courtyard that the four of them had seen was the manager of the courtyard. Furthermore, he was even carrying firewood into the courtyard. He had to take care of everything himself and there was no one to order him around. Only when there were three meals a day would there be someone to deliver the food. As for hot water and tea, they would also be delivered on time. As for the reason why there were no servants, it was simply infuriating. What did they say that the people in the Ling House were all clean and honest people? The young master said that the elders were all experienced and did not need any servants. Besides, it would not be convenient for the elders to go out on a trip if there were servants!
The food was good, the drinks were good and the accommodation was good. However, the four of them felt as if they were in prison. Although the Ling family did not restrict their movements, how would these elders dare to go out? What if they were really accused of going out to 'find pleasure'? Would they still have their old faces?! After barely holding on for a day or two, a new torment came. Whispers came from the small courtyards around their residence, causing the four of them to completely collapse and almost go berserk.
"… Have you heard? There are a few experts from Tamago living there. The Great Elder, I heard that he lost to the young master's page boy in a martial arts competition. He's the one with the worst martial arts around the young master. A Tamago expert? Bullshit expert. "One could imagine the vulgar expression on the person's face as he spoke …
"Really? Is the great Tamago elder really so useless? How could he not even beat the young master's page boy? Jian ge's status is naturally high, but isn't it because he's the young master's page boy that the young master values him?! "An extremely curious and disdainful voice sounded.
"Maybe it's those experts from Tamago who are trash?! I really saw it with my own eyes, how could it be fake? You're so unlucky that you didn't see it with your own eyes. One of the short guys was rolled into a snowball by Brother Jian, while the other tall guy was given a resounding slap. Oh my god, that sound was so clear and crisp that the old man was so embarrassed that he looked like a bride who had just gotten married. Tsk tsk, his face is like a peach blossom. "
"Go to the side, is your bride's face like a dried eggplant?"
"You guys don't know this, but I heard that those old fellows are old on the outside but not on the inside. That day, they even asked the young master about our Sky Bearing Empire! I just don't know if they would look like peach blossoms when they do it! "
"Maybe they won't be able to come down after going up, hehehe …" A wave of sneaky laughter sounded …
After hearing such laughter a few times, the few old men were angered to the point of having a brain hemorrhage. From then on, they shut their windows and doors tightly. Not to mention going out for a stroll, they did not even step out of their rooms …
The sky was clear from the heavy snow, and the sky was covered in silver.
Ling Tian woke up rather early today, and walked towards a stone room with a smile on his face. After making a few turns, he arrived at a stone room guarded by four guards. He opened the door and walked in. Inside, there were tables, chairs, and even blankets. They were all of the best quality, and even the decorations in Ling Tian's room could not compare to them. In the room, there was a lean old man in green robes sitting in front of the table, with a book in his hands. He seemed to be engrossed in reading, and did not even notice Ling Tian's arrival. That old man was none other than Xiao FengYang.
In this period of time, Ling Tian would come here once every few days, and was extremely familiar with the place.
"Second Master Xiao, it's been a long time. How have you been these few days? "Ling Tian smiled politely and asked in a gentle voice.
"Thanks to you, it's been alright." Xiao FengYang did not even lift his eyelids as he replied coldly.
Ling Tian did not stand on ceremony, and sat on Xiao FengYang's bed, feeling the warmth of the silk blankets on the bed. He sighed contentedly and said, "Yes, when one is alone, the bed is warm and the pillow is warm. One does not have to worry about food and drink, and one can read books and recuperate. There are no distractions, and there is no need to worry about work. Life is really like the life of an immortal. Compared to fighting and scheming on the battlefield, it is much better. To tell the truth, Ling Tian is really envious of second master's leisure. "
Xiao FengYang frowned, but it was not because of Ling Tian's sarcasm, but because Ling Tian was sitting on his bed. Xiao FengYang had always been a clean freak. Even when he was outside, he was meticulous about his personal needs. Although he was now a prisoner, but Ling Tian's unscrupulous behavior still made him angry. However, in the past few days, Ling Tian had been harassing him every day, and Xiao FengYang had already gotten used to it.
Xiao FengYang let out a faint 'oh' and said, "Since that is the case, why don't young master move in and accompany this Xiao?"
"How could I have the nerve to disturb second master Xiao's peace?" Ling Tian laughed and said casually, "Ling Tian came this time specifically to inform second master Xiao of a matter. The Xiao family has recently recruited two million soldiers, and despite the cold weather, they have already advanced west. The vanguard has two hundred thousand soldiers, and they are already close to the Heavenly Water Ravine Pass, and their morale is very high. The war is just around the corner, and it will break out at any moment. The Xiao family might be able to retake the Heavenly Water Ravine Pass, and since the Xiao family has mobilized their troops at this time, victory is in their hands. Ling Tian congratulates second master Xiao. "
Pa! Xiao FengYang could no longer maintain his calm, and the book in his hand fell onto the table. His body stiffened, and his face turned pale. Ling Tian was not congratulating him, he was clearly mocking the Xiao family for not having anyone who was well-versed in the art of war.
