But she was always in a trance, and her crystal eyes were a little dazed, lacking a lot of the calmness and serenity she had in the past.
The delicate petals slipped down one by one due to the unconscious friction of the palms, and fell on her long pale golden skirt. The bell in the hall rang with a clear tone. It was almost noon, and someone behind him had been talking to him all morning.
The voice finally paused, a little hoarse, and a little helpless: "Sister-in-law?"
"Um."
Xia Zhi pinched a petal, turned around, and looked at Wang Xiaoyao.
Wang Xiaoyao took a deep breath and made a final conclusion calmly: "So at this time, I should not go to Eastern Europe, but should stay here."
Xia Zhi looked at Wang Xiaoyao quietly.
She has known Wang Xiaoyao very early, for decades. It can even be said that Xia Zhi has watched Wang Xiaoyao grow up with her own eyes, from a child to a teenager, from a teenager to an adult, and then to a young man.
The relationship between uncle and sister-in-law has always been very good.
Xia Zhi still remembers that Wang Xiaoyao often liked to pester him when he was a child, asking him to take him to Shengzhou City to buy a time-honored handmade candy with a long history.
When he was older, when he was practicing martial arts and swordsmanship, he would come to me with his lazy temperament and beg me to make him his favorite sweet and sour fish.
After his father left, Tianzong's teachings to him became more and more severe. Every time he couldn't stand it anymore, he would come here to complain to him.
After getting married, Wang Xiaoyao insisted on calling her sister. Later, when she got older, her sister became sister, but she became closer to her.
When Shengxiao and Yuetong were older, he also liked to take his nieces and nephews to play. The handmade candy shop in Shengzhou City is still a favorite snack of Shengxiao and Yuetong.
The private zoo at the foot of Bingshan still has the sika deer he gave to Yuetong, and the batches of pure-blood horses he gave to Shengxiao on Shengxiao's birthday are already old.
Time keeps moving forward with traces of the past, silently.
Summer Solstice has never felt like time has changed anything.
But at this moment, he looked at the young man standing next to him, thinking of how he pestered her to take him to buy candy when he was a child.
Until this moment, Xia Zhi clearly felt that everything had changed long ago, in a time that she had not paid attention to, in a place that she had not carefully observed.
The young man in front of him still looks handsome, but there is already some unclear gloominess in his eyebrows. He stands there with a familiar smile, but his whole person feels so strange to Xia Zhi.
Xia Zhi sighed softly and shook his head: "No."
"Why?"
Wang Xiaoyao looked at Xia Zhi and raised his eyebrows: "Sister-in-law, Shengxiao has been able to stabilize the situation in Eastern Europe. It doesn't make much sense for me to go there. The news from the outside should have been passed on. Li Tianlan wants to go to Xiongxiong Terrace. If I stay, at least it will be better.
One point guaranteed.”
"You go to Eastern Europe. This is your brother's wish."
Xia Zhi looked at the somewhat unfamiliar Wang Xiaoyao with a smile.
Wang Xiaoyao looked at Xia Zhi and felt a little strange.
That barrier is changing from vague to blurry, from blurry to clear, and seems to be becoming more and more real.
"Dibing Mountain, Beihai Province, Beihai Wang Family..."
Wang Xiaoyao lowered his head: "Leave it all to Di Jiang? He also has a border guard army, can he handle it?"
"The pressure may be greater, but our position is not easy."
Xia Zhi said softly: "Besides, the situation in Eastern Europe is also very complicated. Shengxiao is too young and it is difficult to deal with it. It is also a good thing for you to go and let Shengxiao come back and exercise with Dijiang."
"Holy Night..."
Wang Xiaoyao hesitated: "Still too young."
Xia Zhi's smile did not change and she looked at Wang Xiaoyao: "What are you worried about?"
"Since the establishment of the Beihai Wang Family, the successive commanders of the Beihai Regiment have been held by core members of the direct lineage of the Beihai Wang Family."
Wang Xiaoyao whispered.
This is indeed true.
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
The Wang family of Beihai has been established for five hundred years. They have successively served as commanders of the Beihai Regiment. They have no surnames. They are basically the most trusted younger brothers or elder brothers of the clan leader. However, the commander of the Beihai Regiment of this generation is Wang Tianzong himself.
Now Wang Tianzong is silent. Before his silence, he actually sent Wang Xiaoyao to Eastern Europe and handed over the power to Di Jiang.
Di Jiang now controls the entire Beihai Corps, and is also the commander of the Border Regiment, acting as the clan leader. Whether it is strength or power, the Wang family in Beihai can be said to be unique. With no one able to check and balance Di Jiang, his identity suddenly changes.
Extremely sensitive.
"fine."
Xia Zhi's smile was like a mask, so beautiful that it was a bit pale: "Although this child Di Jiang is not named Wang, he is your brother's student. Tianzong has always treated him as his own son. He is one of our own, so don't worry.
.”
"How is my brother's injury?"
Intentionally or unintentionally, Wang Xiaoyao asked in a low voice.
"fine."
Xia Zhi glanced at her and continued to laugh: "Although that sword in Eastern Europe was terrifying, Tianzong's breakthrough point has become a true genius and supreme. What kind of sword can hurt him? The so-called eternal sword,
What was caused to him is just an ordinary injury. Although the injury is serious, it does not affect his combat effectiveness. If he needs to rest now, it is just because if he takes action forcefully again, his injury will become more serious."
"You know, the situation is very chaotic now. He must recover from his injury as soon as possible. Otherwise, if it were normal times, he would not need to specialize in recovering from this minor injury."
Wang Xiaoyao glanced at Xia Zhi and said nothing.
He didn't know whether his sister-in-law was telling the truth or a lie, but what if it was true?
He lowered his head and narrowed his eyes slightly.
Xia Zhi felt the changes in his movements, and the warmth in his eyes disappeared little by little.
"Sister-in-law, do you really want to drive me to Eastern Europe?"
Wang Xiaoyao said softly.
"Such words are too outrageous."
Xia Zhi said softly: "Eastern Europe is in chaos. Even though God asked you to go to Eastern Europe, I trust your ability. At this time, how to end the chaos in Eastern Europe depends on you. As a member of the Beihai Wang family, Xiaoyao,
You should shoulder your responsibilities."
Wang Xiaoyao was silent for a long time before nodding: "I actually trust Di Jiang. But I'm afraid the outside world won't see it that way. I am my brother's biological brother. If I leave at this time, the outside world is afraid that
There are people who gossip."
Xia Zhi looked at him with soft eyes and an equally soft tone: "You have a clear conscience, what are you afraid of gossiping about?"
Wang Xiaoyao suddenly raised his head and looked at Xia Zhi.
Xia Zhi was also looking at him, not avoiding him.
The air seemed to freeze for a moment.
I don't know how long it took, but Wang Xiaoyao lowered his head again and avoided Xia Zhi's gaze.
"Sister-in-law, are you making sweet and sour fish for me?"
He was silent for a long time before tentatively speaking.
Xia Zhi laughed, looked at the man who had always been her brother in her heart, and said softly: "I'm not feeling well today. I'll wait until you come back from Eastern Europe."
Wang Tianzong lowered his head and looked at the ground.
His eyes were a little sad.
I don't know how long it took before he said yes: "I'm leaving now."
He turned around and slowly left the hall.
Xia Zhi watched him leave.
She stood there, making no sound or moving.
...
The main door of the hall opened for a moment and then closed again.
Wang Xiaoyao stood outside the door and saw Di Jiang.
Di Jiang, who had returned to Imperial Soldier Mountain a few days ago, was standing in the pool in front of the main hall, looking at the lotus flowers and fish in the pool.
Hearing the sound of the door opening, he turned his head and looked at Wang Xiaoyao.
Their eyes met for a moment, but neither one spoke.
Di Jiang is Wang Tianzong's student.
Wang Xiaoyao is Wang Tianzong's younger brother.
There is a difference in seniority.
But the two are similar in age.
So they are friends.
At least we were friends.
Very good friends.
"what are you doing here?"
Wang Xiaoyao looked at him for a while and said slowly: "Now
(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)
You can go in."
"Don't go in."
Di Jiang smiled and said casually, "I was just strolling around."
"What's there to see?"
Wang Xiaoyao's eyes seemed to have needles hidden in them.
“There really isn’t much to see.”
Di Jiang was silent for a moment and nodded: "Shall I send you off?"
Wang Xiaoyao looked at him deeply and nodded.
The two went down the mountain in silence.
At the airport at the foot of the mountain, a special plane bound for Eastern Europe was already on standby.
Today is the third time Wang Xiaoyao has seen the summer solstice.
But there was no result, so he had no choice but to go to Eastern Europe.
Wang Xiaoyao suddenly remembered that he had seen Xia Zhi three times. Every time he came out, he could see the Dijiang River, whether far or near.
There were some things that he had never thought about before, and it was only now that he realized a possibility.
He laughed, mocking himself: "I see you every time I come out. Are you afraid that I will hurt my sister-in-law?"
"If she doesn't want to, who can hurt the master's wife?"
Di Jiang said calmly: "I'm nearby, I just hope you can calm down."
"You doubt me too?"
Wang Xiaoyao's voice was low. He looked at Di Jiang, his eyes suddenly becoming extremely sharp.
Di Jiang said nothing.
"I swear that I have done nothing to disgrace the Wang family of Beihai."
He took a deep breath, word by word, and gritted his teeth and said, "I have a clear conscience."
Di Jiang still didn't speak.
He believed Wang Xiaoyao's words. He had a clear conscience towards the Beihai Wang family and had done nothing to disgrace the Beihai Wang family.
He also believed that Wang Qinglei had a clear conscience towards the Beihai Wang family and had not done anything to feel sorry for the Beihai Wang family.
But the problem is that the Beihai Wang family is too big.
"You do not believe?"
Wang Xiaoyao looked at Di Jiang and asked.
"I believe."
Di Jiang's voice was calm.
"My sister-in-law doesn't believe me, my brother doesn't believe me, you do? Why?"
Wang Xiaoyao laughed.
"Because we were friends."
Di Jiang said.
Once was not a word.
This is a knife that cuts everything easily.
Wang Xiaoyao fell silent.
"Li Tianlan is coming."
After a long time, he said slowly.
"I'll stop him."
Di Jiang answered without hesitation.
"Can you stop me?"
Wang Xiaoyao asked back: "Just like you are now the acting patriarch of the Wang family in Beihai, and you are carrying Beihai Province on your back. Can you afford it?"
Di Jiang glanced at him: "Are you okay?"
Wang Xiaoyao said nothing.
His figure is moving forward.
A vague Qi movement seemed to involve the entire world, and the pure Beihai Wang family's sword intention spread out across a large area of void in an instant, shaking the entire Imperial Armed Forces Mountain.
Di Jiang's figure paused on the spot and looked at Wang Xiaoyao.
At this moment, Wang Xiaoyao's body stood straight, and his whole body was covered with sword light.
This is the sword light of the invincible realm.
Maybe now.
Maybe it was before.
At some point, Wang Xiaoyao had broken through and officially entered the invincible realm.
There is a new invincible in Central Continent.
Beihai also has a new level of invincibility.
Di Jiang looked back at the top of the mountain.
Wang Xiaoyao stopped moving forward.
Time has passed for a long time.
The top of the mountain was still silent.
It was impossible for Xia Zhi not to feel Wang Xiaoyao's sword intent.
But she didn't speak.
Didn't let him stay.
Wang Xiaoyao laughed, his eyes a little mocking, and finally regained his composure.
"Protect Beihai and Imperial Soldier Mountain for me."
Wang Xiaoyao patted Di Jiang on the shoulder and said softly: "I always think that I am no worse than anyone else, so there is something."
His voice was very low: "No matter whose hands it is, I will take it back."
"But it's not something that belongs to you."
Di Jiang said quietly.
Wang Xiaoyao waved his hand and walked towards the airport: "It is now."
