In the early morning, when the first ray of sunlight shone on the earth, an extremely luxuriously decorated carriage left from the gate of Tiandou City.
As the carriage left, some spies hiding on the edge of Tiandou City also withdrew their sight.
The scorching sun gradually moved to the top of the head, and Tiandou City was as calm and lively as usual.
But the undercurrent hidden underneath has begun to surge.
A hundred kilometers away from Tiandou City, Lu Xiao and Qian Renxue stopped the carriage, and Yang Wudi and Dugu Bo, the coachmen, also jumped out of the carriage.
"Then we'll go back first, be careful on the way."
Yang Wudi stood up straight and said something to Lu Xiao and Qian Renxue, and then he and Dugu Bo returned to Tiandou City along the other road.
"Hmm~ It's been a long time since I felt like there's no one around me."
Qian Renxue stretched out, her delicate Qiong nose gently took two breaths of fresh air, and her expression became very soothing.
After coming out of Tiandou City, she had returned to her original appearance, and this somewhat lazy movement made her even more charming.
"Why, am I not considered a human being~"
Lu Xiao chuckled and handed her a bottle of water. He knew what Qian Renxue meant.
Even when She Long and Zhang Xue, who are the most loyal to her, are by her side, she must act mature and steady, and not act a little arrogantly. After all, she is their young master.
You know, no matter how mature she appears on the outside, Qian Renxue is just a teenage girl. She also has her own little temper and temper, but she has never been able to show it out.
"Does that mean you're still a human being?"
Qian Renxue took the water from Lu Xiao's hand and stuck out her tongue rather naughtily.
She learned this kind of complaint from Lu Xiao, but she had never been able to say it out loud before. Now that there is no one around her except Lu Xiao, she doesn't need to care too much about her image.
Speaking of which, when was the last time you spoke freely without worrying about your image?
It seems to have happened before I awakened my martial soul at the age of six.
"Okay, let's get ready to continue on our way." Lu Xiao handed Qian Renxue a handkerchief and then jumped into the carriage.
Now that there were only two of them, it was natural for him to drive the car.
Fortunately, their carriage is of high quality, and the carriage is pulled by two hundred-year-old soul beast heavy mud draft horses that have been kept in captivity. They have good endurance and a quite gentle temperament, so even Lu Xiao can easily drive this carriage.
.
Qian Renxue did not return to the carriage. She sat next to Lu Xiao, humming beautifully as she looked at the receding scenery around her.
"Are you that happy?"
Lu Xiao gently whipped the air with his whip, and the sound caused Chongni to pull the horse a little faster.
He really didn't expect that Qian Renxue's personality would be so lively when no one was around.
"It's okay, but I haven't had such a relaxed life since I was six years old."
Qian Renxue leaned against the door of the carriage and began to tell Lu Xiao about her previous experiences in the Spirit Hall. This was something she had never told Lu Xiao before.
Before she was six years old, she had been living in the worship hall, and Qian Daoliu single-handedly brought her up.
Because of her status, even though Qian Renxue was just a child who didn't understand anything at the time, most of the worshipers in the worship hall were very kind to her, and could even be said to be quite loyal to her.
Whatever she wants, she can get.
However, when she wanted her parents, she couldn't get any response at all.
Her father, Qian Xunji, the Pope of Wuhun Palace, rarely accompanied her since she was born, and even claimed to the outside world that he was not her father.
But even those extremely rare days made her feel a warmth that was different from her grandfather's care.
And her mother...
It wasn't until she awakened her martial spirit at the age of six that Qian Renxue knew that the saint with a cold face all day long was her mother!
"Later, I awakened my martial soul, and my innate soul power reached level 20, which made my grandfather very happy. I still remember that day, my grandfather carried me around in the hall for a long time, and he kept mumbling about the angel clan.
Finally there is someone who can inherit the power of the angel god!"
As Qian Renxue recalled, she unconsciously closed her legs, then her arms gently wrapped around her calves, and her chin rested on her knees.
"I didn't understand anything at that time. I just thought that I brought joy to my grandfather, so I was very happy. Later I realized what the Seraph Martial Spirit plus the innate twenty-level soul power actually represented.
Starting from the age of six, my grandfather was no longer so kind to me. Instead, he kept sternly urging me to learn all kinds of knowledge."
"Until I entered the eldest prince's house in Tiandou City as a maid under the arrangement of my grandfather and that woman, I have never felt as relaxed as I do today."
Seeing the faint smile on Qian Renxue's lips, Lu Xiao couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
Everyone in the world knew that Qian Renxue was extremely talented and had a bright future, but no one really cared about her heart.
Such a proud girl was so soft-hearted that after being defeated by a man, his shadow was completely left behind.
"Don't worry, after we come back from Poseidon Island, you will be as relaxed as you are now every day."
Lu Xiao changed the whip from his right hand to his left hand, and his right hand gently grabbed Qian Renxue's hand.
The soft and boneless touch did not make Lu Xiao feel charming, but instead made him feel a little sorry for this girl who was trying to be strong.
"Hmph~"
Seeing Lu Xiao staring intently at the road ahead, Qian Renxue couldn't help but chuckle. She intertwined her hands with Lu Xiao's, then closed her eyes and enjoyed the breeze blowing by her ears.
"You know, when I was chatting with my mother in the Star Dou Forest before, I mentioned that the most correct thing I have done in these years is to take you out of the auction house."
Qian Renxue closed her eyes and murmured a few words softly, and the scene of her first meeting with Lu Xiao reappeared in her mind.
When the black cloth was torn open, the eyes of the young man locked in the shimmering cage were so pure.
"I also think that was the most right thing you did."
Lu Xiao whipped the heavy mud draft horse again, and then leaned against the car door.
Their shoulders were leaning against each other, everything was so natural, without any sense of disobedience.
The midday sun was a bit dazzling, but it didn't make people feel hot when it shone on them. Instead, they felt their hearts warming up a little bit.
