He was a little embarrassed and almost wanted to rush in and drag Miao Yi out to teach him a lesson in front of everyone.
However, he didn't want Wu Menglan to see him make a fool of himself. He scoffed and tossed a jade archive to Yan Xiu. "Take this to Miao Yi and remind him."
Yan Xiu caught the jade archive in his hand and was taken aback. It turned out to be an invitation to become sworn brothers. More importantly, Miao Yi had placed his transcendence seal on it. This couldn't be faked, and he was immediately confused as to what was going on.
Yan Xiu had always been cautious in his work. Afraid of causing trouble, he ordered his men to keep an eye on them while he personally went back to report.
Only Wu Menglan was still laughing so hard that she couldn't catch her breath for a while...
Yan Xiu personally went to the Cave Master's silent cultivation room to meet Miao Yi. He explained the situation and presented the jade archive. "I'm afraid there's a mistake. Please verify it, Steed Deputy."
Hearing that there was an invitation to become sworn brothers, Miao Yi suddenly remembered something. He took the jade archive and looked at it. He couldn't help but slap his forehead.
He immediately let out an 'aiya'. If he hadn't seen this, he wouldn't have remembered that he had a sworn brother.
"Xiao Yizhu. So it's him. What is he doing here? Invite him in! No … I've offended him. I'll invite him myself! "
Miao Yi jumped off the stone bed and quickly left.
Qian'Er and Xue'Er looked at each other. Could it be that Master really had a sworn brother?
Yan Xiu followed Miao Yi out and couldn't help but ask, "Is this person really your sworn brother?"
"It's hard to say yes or no. I only mentioned it casually back then, and that guy really came. Is there something wrong with his head? Anyway, he's not doing well in Suppressing Second Hall. I think he's just here to take advantage of me. Since he's here, I'll just treat him warmly. "Miao Yi waved his hand as if he didn't want to recall the past.
He quickly rushed to the mountain gates and saw that Xiao Yizhu was indeed among the two people surrounded. Miao Yi quickly waved his hand and said, "They're on our side. Move aside, quickly!"
Yuan Fang and the others immediately withdrew from the encirclement of the two.
Miao Yi greeted them with cupped fists and smiled, "I didn't know Big Brother had come from afar. Please forgive me if I have offended you! "
He took a few more glances at the beautiful woman. He didn't know who Xiao Yizhu had brought with him, but her appearance and temperament were extraordinary.
At the same time, he discovered that the woman was also examining him with curiosity in her eyes.
Everyone in East Arrival Cave exchanged glances. The person who came was really the Cave Master's sworn brother! Were they from Suppressing Second Hall? The Cave Master's connections had already been pulled to Suppressing Second Hall?
Huo Lingxiao sat firmly on his dragon steed and scoffed, "You flatter me! Little Brother, you're really arrogant. It's really not easy to see you. I almost lost my life. "
"Big Brother is angry, but you don't know that I have no other choice. I'll explain this to Big Brother later. " After exchanging pleasantries, Miao Yi noticed that Xiao Yizhu still had a sullen expression on his face. He immediately cupped his fists towards Wu Menglan and asked, "Big Brother, is this Madam Sister-in-law?"
Yes! Even if he guessed correctly.
No! Even if it was to liven up the atmosphere, it was definitely not wrong for a man to joke around with a beauty.
Wu Menglan immediately stopped smiling. Her eyes widened as she shouted, "Hey! What a kid with a mouth full of nonsense! "
Huo Lingxiao, who had a sullen expression on his face, was taken aback for a moment before bursting into laughter. The faint anger in his heart instantly vanished. He let go of his stance and jumped off his dragon steed. He stepped forward and patted Miao Yi's shoulder, teasing, "Little Brother, you have a good eye …" He turned around and saw that Wu Menglan was about to explode. Afraid that she would expose him, he immediately corrected himself, "You can even mistake this."
He then secretly transmitted his voice to Miao Yi, "Little Brother! Only Little Brother can understand my feelings. Alas, the falling flower longs for the love, but the heartless stream does not! "
Miao Yi's eyes immediately revealed a look of understanding. 'This is a one-sided love! She's bringing him to my territory and asking me to support her! '
He didn't think that the cultivation of the person Xiao Yizhu brought could be that high, but he still had to give face.
He immediately raised his hand and asked Wu Menglan. "May I ask for your name?"
Wu Menglan also got off her dragon steed and calmly replied, "Meng Lan, Zi Min Meng, Lan Hua Lan!" She deliberately explained.
Huo Lingxiao, who was listening on the side, revealed a slight smile.
"So it's Sister Meng. Since you're a friend of my Big Brother, then you're also my friend. This way please!" Miao Yi waved his hand in invitation and personally led the way.
As he led the two of them forward, he didn't forget to instruct Yan Xiu, "Prepare a table full of the best dishes!"
Yan Xiu accepted the order and left.
Huo Lingxiao, on the other hand, looked back with interest. The Steed Deputy was giving orders to the Cave Master, but the Cave Master actually accepted them calmly. It was quite interesting.
The three of them entered the courtyard behind the main hall. The weather was perfect, so Miao Yi immediately invited the two of them to sit in the pavilion in the courtyard.
After Qian'Er and Xue'Er served some fragrant tea, they also stood behind Miao Yi and waited for his orders.
Huo Lingxiao and Wu Menglan took a second look at the two handmaidens. Whose handmaidens weren't fair and clean? They didn't expect Miao Yi's handmaidens to be so tanned.
Little did they know that Qian'Er and Xue'Er had become a little fairer recently. When they first came back, they were even darker, as if they had been through a lot of hardships.
However, the unusual heroic aura emanating from the two girls caught the attention of the two Hall Masters. It was rare to see such a distinct aura from women, especially handmaidens.
Wu Menglan nodded and said, "The aura of these two handmaidens of yours is not bad."
Miao Yi smiled, and extended his hand to invite the two of them to have some tea.
After Huo Lingxiao took a sip of tea, he looked around and asked, "Little Brother, I heard that you were demoted to a Steed Deputy. But from what I can see, the place you are living in still seems to be the Cave Master's residence, right?"
"I will do as the Cave Master wishes." Miao Yi casually replied, then asked, "May I know what Big Brother's plans are for this trip?"
Huo Lingxiao smiled and said, "After drinking the fine wine that Little Brother gave me last time, any other fine wine would be tasteless. I have specially come to ask for some wine to drink. Little Brother, you won't mind, right?"
Miao Yi laughed and said, "Of course!"
He usually didn't drink much, unless he was in a good mood. These past few years, Yao Ruoxian had squandered one to two thousand jars of wine. However, he still had enough in stock. He still had more than ten thousand jars left, which was naturally more than enough to entertain two guests.
He turned to Wu Menglan and said with a smile, "Sister Meng has a beauty that can captivate even birds and beasts, and a countenance that can outshine the moon and shame the flowers. Your presence has truly brought light to East Arrival Cave. May I know what Sister Meng's position is?"
Women loved to hear others praise their appearance, and Wu Menglan was no exception. However, she maintained an indifferent expression and said, "A mere Loose Cultivator. Not enough to reach the apex."
"Loose Cultivator?" Miao Yi looked at Huo Lingxiao, who had a faint smile on his face. He thought he understood. 'Could it be that this cheap Big Brother brought this woman here to ask me to help resolve her identity as a Loose Cultivator?' He immediately asked, "Little Brother's words in front of this Cave Master are still of some use. It shouldn't be difficult to ask the Cave Master to help resolve the issue. If Sister Meng doesn't mind, why not join my East Arrival Cave? "
Wu Menglan's expression froze.
The corner of Huo Lingxiao's eyes twitched, and he almost spat out the tea he had been slowly swallowing. He spent a great deal of effort to hold it in, and realized that this brat was really giving him face. He actually wanted to take the Hall Master of Suppressing Third Hall as his subordinate.
He coughed dryly and nodded, "Little Brother is right." He turned to look at Wu Menglan, and said in a serious tone, "Meng Lan. Don't let down my Little Brother's good intentions! "
She even cupped her fists towards Miao Yi and said, "Thank you, Little Brother."
Miao Yi thought to himself that it was indeed the case. He returned the gesture and said, "As long as Sister Meng is willing, this is nothing. For Big Brother's sake, I will definitely not let Sister Meng suffer in East Arrival Cave in the future."
Wu Menglan coldly said, "You two are echoing each other. Are you done yet?"
"Uhh …." Miao Yi looked at Huo Lingxiao suspiciously. 'This … could it be that she's unwilling?'
"I'm used to being idle. I appreciate Brother Miao's good intentions." Wu Menglan calmly replied.
Huo Lingxiao immediately shook his head and sighed. It seemed like a pity.
Seeing him like this, Miao Yi naturally wanted to help again. He took the initiative to persuade her, "Sister Meng, no matter how I look at it, you and my Big Brother are a perfect match. If you can both serve in Suppressing Second Hall, wouldn't it be more convenient for you to interact in the future?"
Wu Menglan narrowed her eyes and said, "Don't associate me with him. There's nothing between us."
Miao Yi thought to himself, 'If there's nothing between you, is there a need for you to come to my place with Xiao Yizhu?
If there's nothing between you, why would I treat you so coldly?
Who do you think you are?! You're just a Loose Cultivator. Why are you putting on airs in front of me? No matter how beautiful you are, you're still a woman. With your current cultivation, I'm afraid you won't be able to maintain your youthful looks for long. When you grow old, hmph! '
On the other hand, Huo Lingxiao chuckled, seemingly unconcerned.
Wu Menglan looked at the two of them. She couldn't help but wonder if she had brought trouble upon herself by coming here. She didn't want Huo Lingxiao to have an easy time either. She immediately said, "Brother Miao, it's not that I don't know what's good for me. It's just that whenever I think of that Suppressing Second Hall Master of yours, I feel disgusted. I don't want to risk my life for him. "
Huo Lingxiao silently sipped his tea.
Miao Yi asked curiously, "Sister Meng has met our Hall Master before?"
"I was fortunate enough to meet him once. Huo Lingxiao is a man who commits all sorts of crimes …."
Huo Lingxiao suddenly interrupted, "Sigh! Meng Lan's chastity was ruined in the hands of our Hall Master. "
"..." Miao Yi, along with Qian'Er and Xue'Er behind him, stared at Wu Menglan with widened eyes. No wonder she wasn't willing to join this place. Her feelings had been violated by the Suppressing Second Hall Master. This Suppressing Second Hall Master was too much. This woman wasn't bad looking, and she was also a cultivator. How could such a large Suppressing Second Hall not be able to accommodate a woman like her?
Wu Menglan glared at Huo Lingxiao. This time, she was truly enraged. She gritted her teeth and said, "If you dare to spout nonsense again, I will expose your dirty secrets!"
Miao Yi and the others immediately looked at Huo Lingxiao, wondering what kind of good deeds he had done this time. Their eyes lit up with the flames of gossip, and they really wanted to listen in.
Huo Lingxiao coughed dryly and said, "Enough is enough! Don't cross the line. After all, I am a member of Suppressing Second Hall. "He then shut his mouth.
Wu Menglan, on the other hand, cursed loudly, "Huo Lingxiao is a beast worse than a pig or a dog. He has the heart of a wolf and lungs of a dog. A beast in human clothing …."
All sorts of vulgar words came out of his mouth.
On the other hand, Huo Lingxiao's main body was looking down at the ground, seemingly unfazed by Miao Yi's words. He would only gulp down a mouthful of tea when he heard something too provocative. He was prepared to never let Miao Yi know his true identity even if he was beaten to death in the future.
Miao Yi sucked in a breath of cold air, thinking that it was best not to recruit this woman into East Arrival Cave. He couldn't afford to offend her. Otherwise, that mouth of hers would drag him down sooner or later.
After venting her anger, Wu Menglan was probably thirsty from all the scolding. She took a sip of tea, then turned to Miao Yi and asked, "Brother Miao, what do you think of Huo Lingxiao?"
Huo Lingxiao also glanced sideways, not knowing what kind of evaluation the Cave Master under his command would have of him.
