Late autumn.
The grass and trees on Clearbreeze Peak rustled as the northern wind grew colder.
As soon as Su Xiaoyu reached the top of the mountain, she saw a tall man standing on a boulder with his hands behind his back.
He was dressed in a white brocade robe and his hair fluttered in the wind. She could only see his back, but he gave off a noble and cold aura. If not for his clothes, Su Xiaoyu would have thought it was Her Highness standing there.
Who is he?
And where is Senior Han Chen?
Suspicious, Su Xiaoyu approached him silently. As she got closer, she realized she was wrong. This guy was completely different from Her Highness.
Her Highness was cold, dignified, and domineering, but this guy exuded a pure coldness that kept people thousands of miles away.
Just by looking at his back, Su Xiaoyu felt that this guy was not to be trifled with. He was extremely heartless.
Someone who could appear at Clearbreeze Peak was either one of them or someone from the Wolf Sect, right? Su Xiaoyu guessed that this guy must be Senior Han Chen.
Just as she was about to speak, the guy suddenly turned around. It was obvious that he already knew she was approaching.
He turned around and threw a sword at her. Coldly, he said, "Let's fight."
Su Xiaoyu took a step back and let the sword fall to the ground. She was puzzled. "Who are you? You must have mistaken me for someone else. "
"You're Su Xiaoyu?" He Coldly asked.
"I'm Su Xiaoyu. Who are you? What do you want? Where's your master? Tell him to come out! It's not that easy to take me as a disciple! "
Su Xiaoyu crossed her arms and raised her eyebrows. She didn't have the naivety of a twelve or thirteen year old. Instead, she looked more like a seventeen or eighteen-year-old young miss.
Han Chen's face remained impassive. He knew that the little girl had misunderstood him. Coldly, he asked, "It's been three days. You still haven't decided if you want to be my disciple?"
"I don't even know what your master looks like, what he's capable of, or how sincere he is. What do I think? "
Su Xiaoyu added, "Just the name 'Han Chen' is enough for me to take him as my master? I'm sorry, I've never heard of this name before! "
Nobody in Cloud Realm Continent knew the name Han Chen. However, in the Mysterious Continent, it was a pass that allowed one to do whatever they wanted wherever they went! The number of children who wanted to take him as their master was enough to form a line from the Mysterious Continent all the way to Cloud Realm Continent!
However, whether it was because of his name or because of people like Su Xiaoyu who knew nothing about him, he didn't care.
What he saw was a child's temper and nature.
If they could catch his eye, even if they came with various motives, he would still accept them.
Han Chen didn't answer Su Xiaoyu. Instead, he grabbed the sword from the ground and swung it to the side. In an instant, sword qi surged forth with mountain-toppling force, destroying a dozen or so trees nearby.
Su Xiaoyu was stunned.
If Senior Han Chen's disciple was so powerful, wouldn't he be even more terrifying? It had to be said that Su Xiaoyu's heart was moved at this moment!
If she had such strength one day, she'd have enough confidence to tell His Highness that she could protect her master and the little master!
Han Chen ignored Su Xiaoyu's shock. He gripped the sword in his right hand and slammed his left palm against the shaft of the arrow, causing it to split open. Hidden within the sword was a small, exquisite dagger that emitted a faint glow. The hilt was studded with an unknown gemstone, and the edge of the blade was so sharp that even the cowardly wouldn't dare to look directly at it.
"This is Bluesky. It's two levels below your master's Ganjiang Mo Xie, but it's enough for your current use," Han Chen said Coldly.
Su Xiaoyu had always liked good things, especially natural treasures. She'd never heard of Bluesky before, but she couldn't help but gulp at the sight of its faint blue glow. However, her mind was still on another matter.
She lectured him unhappily, "What do you mean by my master? My master is your master's daughter, so you should call her Miss. As for His Highness, you should call him Master! "
Han Chen continued to ignore Su Xiaoyu's words, but he walked down from the big rock and towards Su Xiaoyu.
It had to be said that this guy was too tall. As soon as he got close, Su Xiaoyu felt as if a mountain was pressing down on her.
She, who was always fearless, subconsciously took a few steps back. "What are you doing?"
Han Chen looked down at her from above. He realized that this little girl was too short, only reaching his waist. He could only squat down.
Coldly, he said, "This sovereign is Han Chen. Here's my appearance. This sovereign will give you the time it takes to brew a cup of tea. Look carefully and immediately answer this sovereign. Do you want to be my disciple? "
Su Xiaoyu was instantly shocked. She turned back to look at the dozen or so trees that toppled the mountains and overturned the seas, then looked at the Bluesky sword in Han Chen's hand. Finally, her gaze landed on Han Chen's handsome face that even the heavens would be jealous of … Finally, she was stunned!
So this guy was showing her his ability, sincerity, and what he looked like.
So this guy was Senior Han Chen!
Master's father, the top expert of the Mysterious Continent, the "senior" that His Highness referred to, should be an "old senior" to her! Shouldn't he be very, very old?
She had always thought that Senior Han Chen was an old man in his sixties or seventies. His hair and beard were all white, and he looked like an old immortal.
But … but this guy didn't have a beard at all!
Su Xiaoyu unconsciously sized up the face in front of her. His features were indescribably handsome, but he was really cold, as if he really had no desires.
Gods and Buddhas also had no desires, but they were merciful and had a heart that pitied the common people.
This guy was like a heartless person.
Su Xiaoyu was really curious about this guy's age. Based on Master's age, this guy should be around forty years old!
But other than a few strands of white hair at his temples, she couldn't see any signs of age on his face. If she didn't know his identity, she would have thought that he was only around thirty years old.
Why did he have strands of white hair at his temples? A person like him couldn't possibly be troubled. The only possibility was that he had gone berserk while cultivating.
Su Xiaoyu couldn't help but shudder at this thought. Heaven knows how this person would torture her in the future if she acknowledged him as her master. She was definitely asking for it!
Su Xiaoyu's little bit of interest turned into fear. She subconsciously wanted to stay away from this guy.
"Have you thought it through?" Han Chen asked Coldly.
Su Xiaoyu immediately shook her head. "I don't want it!"
"What do you want? Tell me." Han Chen continued. After so many years, it was rare for him to meet a child that he liked. He didn't want to give up.
In fact, compared to Su Xiaoyu, he preferred Han Yunxi's personality. However, Han Yunxi was an adult and already had the power of the Phoenix.
What he needed was a child who could be trained from a young age and cultivate her inner strength again.
Su Xiaoyu was around thirteen years old. Although she was much older than he had hoped, he could still make do with it.
Su Xiaoyu wanted to reject him, but she suddenly remembered something.
Bai Yanqing!
She hadn't even met Bai Yanqing yet! If she rejected this guy now, he would definitely bear a grudge. Then, would she never be able to meet Bai Yanqing again?
To Su Xiaoyu, revenge on Bai Yanqing was more important than anything else! Thus, she decided to play a trick on Han Chen!
She pretended to hesitate. Seeing this, Han Chen said Coldly, "Say what you want."
Bai Yuqiao mustered up his courage and said seriously, "I heard that Bai Yanqing is in your hands. I have some personal grudges with Bai Yanqing that haven't been settled yet. Give me three days after we've settled our personal grudges. I'll consider it carefully! What do you think? "
"Consider?" Han Chen immediately grasped the main point.
"Yes. I'll consider it carefully. After all, it's a big deal to have a master, "Su Xiaoyu said seriously.
Han Chen was very straightforward. Coldly, he said, "Come with me."
He left after saying that. Su Xiaoyu secretly heaved a sigh of relief. She wasn't lying, was she? She didn't say that she had to have him as her master. After she dealt with Bai Yanqing, she would ask her master to send someone to tell him that she had thought it through and that she didn't want to have him as her master anymore.
In any case, this matter was consensual. She couldn't blame anyone!
After comforting herself with this, Su Xiaoyu calmly and calmly followed Han Chen.
In the afternoon, Han Yunxi asked Long Fei Ye to accompany her to Clearbreeze Mountain.
"Han Chen is the head of the Xuankong Sect. He won't go so far as to trick a servant girl like you," Long Fei Ye said. He didn't like Han Yunxi running around, especially when she went up the mountain.
Actually, everyone was puzzled that Han Yunxi didn't have any feelings for her biological father. They all thought that this birth father had come too suddenly and she couldn't accept it immediately. Only Long Fei Ye knew the truth about Han Yunxi's transmigration. It was normal that Han Yunxi didn't have any feelings for Han Chen. Long Fei Ye was very happy to see this situation. He hoped that this woman would only be attached to him.
"I'm not worried about Little Yu 'er at all. Who knows, she might even trick Han Chen!" Han Yunxi said with a smile.
"You're underestimating Han Chen," Long Fei Ye said objectively.
"No. It's Han Chen who underestimated Little Yu 'er. Little Yu 'er is just a child. Han Chen won't be too wary of her, "Han Yunxi said seriously.
Long Fei Ye didn't want to argue with her about this pointless issue. He sat down beside Han Yunxi. He seemed to hesitate, but in the end, he reached out and gently placed his hand on Han Yunxi's bulging abdomen.
He had been busy until now. It wasn't easy for him to send Ning Jing and Tang Li away. It wasn't easy for him to stay up all night to deal with urgent matters. It wasn't easy for him to let this woman have a good night's rest.
This morning, he had secretly laid down beside her for a nap. He had been wanting to touch their little guy for a while, but he couldn't bear to wake her up.
Now that he had sent Tang Li and his wife away, the urgent matters at hand were more or less settled. He could finally steal half a day of leisure to accompany her and their child.
However, they could only stay in Medical City for a day or two before he had to return to the army. After all, Western Zhou and Northern Li were not yet at peace. In fact, it wasn't difficult to conquer Western Zhou and Northern Li.
What really kept him busy was after Western Zhou and Beiping were pacified. That was, establishing a country and establishing a system.
Establishing a new country, establishing a brand new system in all aspects, assigning titles to kings and ministers, and balancing the power of various factions was definitely a huge undertaking.
It was easy to conquer a country, but difficult to defend it. From the moment he conquered a country, it was the beginning of defending it. It was a war without smoke. It was a strategy and wisdom that the martial arts of the Mysterious Continent couldn't compare to!
Of course, none of this was as important as his wife and child. Before he left for the army, he had to first settle down Han Yunxi.
Long Fei Ye was actually very nervous when he placed his hand on Han Yunxi's bulging abdomen.
