"Xiao Shuang, actually I really don't want to drag you down. And I think it's too difficult to untie the five-star life-extending nail. I'm afraid it will be very dangerous for Xiao Yu." Zi Lei was worried, but he was afraid of being spied on, so he spoke
Among them, Zi Lei did not reveal Ling Tianyu's identity.
"Father, just rest in peace and recuperate. You also know Xiaoyu's abilities. He will not do anything he is not sure about." Zi Shuang said. What she was most afraid of was that Zi Lei would suddenly leave.
"Yes." Zi Lei nodded lightly, with silky eyes, and said happily: "Xiao Shuang, although you are not my biological daughter, in my heart, I have already regarded you as my biological daughter. When I hear this from you,
Saying 'Father' makes me feel really happy."
"That's the case. You should take good care of yourself. I believe that after Xiaoyu comes back, I will be able to save you, my father." Zishuang smiled, covering up her heartbreak. She recognized Zilei as her biological father.
"That's right." Zi Lei smiled and suddenly took out a green jade pendant from his arms. The jade pendant seemed to have a long green dragon carved on it. He gently held it in Zi Shuang's palm and said, "Xiao Shuang, this jade pendant
It has been hanging on you since you were a child, but I feel that this jade pendant has a strange power. You were still too young at the time, and I was afraid that it would affect you, so I kept it for you. Now it is time to return it to its original owner.
"
"Jade pendant..." Zi Shuang was stunned and held it tightly. Suddenly, a strange feeling arose in her heart, as if there was a familiar feeling of blood connection.
"Haha, although we are like father and daughter, we are really not related by blood. Maybe this jade pendant can help you solve the mystery of your life experience." Zi Lei smiled slightly and said: "Actually, my biggest wish now is
You can be happy, you can find your relatives, and you can have a destination. In this way, I will have no regrets in this life."
Zi Shuang clutched the jade pendant and said with an indifferent expression: "Although I don't know why my biological parents abandoned me, I have already broken my heart for them. I don't care about my life experience now. What I care about most is
"Father, if you can live well, I really can't lose you."
"Shuang'er..." Zi Lei swallowed his sobs, with a smile on his face. If Zi Lei hadn't been deeply attached to Zi Shuang, Zi Lei would have chosen to die long ago.
Sudden!
The little bear's ears perked up, as if he felt some kind of aura approaching, and he suddenly became vigilant.
"Xiaoshuang."
A familiar voice came, and Du Xuan had already stepped forward.
Zi Shuang was stunned, then immediately stood up and saluted: "Xiao Shuang pays homage to the sect leader."
Hearing this, Zi Lei also wanted to sit up.
"Elder Lei, there is no need to be polite," Du Xuan said hurriedly.
"Thank you so much, sect master." Zi Lei smiled bitterly and sighed: "It's a pity that Zi Lei is a useless person now. It is really well deserved to be given precious mysterious jade by the sect master."
"Haha, Elder Zi Lei is serious. The most important thing is to recover from his injuries." Du Xuan said with a smile, but his face looked a little uncertain, as if he was hesitating about something.
The little bear has sharp eyes. As a mythical beast that has lived for tens of thousands of years, its ability to judge people is not trivial. Although Duxuan looks hospitable on the surface, there is a hint of evil in his eyes.
"Xiao Shuang." Du Xuan looked at Zi Shuang and said with a smile: "Haha, you are the most valued disciple of our sect and the most trustworthy disciple of our sect. As for some things, we want to ask you.
"
"Xiao Shuang knew it but didn't say anything." Zi Shuang looked respectful.
"Yes." Duxuan nodded lightly and asked with a serious face: "Actually, it's nothing. I just think that brother Xiaoyu is a rare talent, and he wants to take him as the elder of our sect. But I think, Xiaoyu
It shouldn't be his real name, right? And you have a close relationship with him, so you should know a lot about him, so I want to ask you. Of course, I don't have any other meaning, I just want to get to know him better."
Zi Lei frowned. Although he didn't dare to suspect Du Xuan, he still felt that Du Xuan's sudden question was very problematic. In fact, yesterday when Du Xuan still wanted to protect Xiong Guangyuan, he had always been hostile to Wan Ling Sect.
The loyal Zi Lei has a different view of Du Xuan. To put it bluntly, he no longer trusts him as much as before.
Zi Shuang also felt this way, and Ling Tianyu's identity was very sensitive in Xizhou, so he said: "Sect Master, to be honest, his name is indeed Xiaoyu. I have a good relationship with him, and I also call him that on weekdays.
Brother Xiaoyu. But to be honest, I actually know very little about him, and I'm afraid I can't tell you in detail to the sect master. If the sect master wants Xiaoyu to take over the position of grand elder, I will definitely tell him well when he comes back.
"
Du Xuan narrowed his eyes. For an old monster like him who had lived for hundreds of years, how could Zi Shuang be as scheming as him? It was obvious that Zi Shuang was not telling the truth. His face sank slightly and he said calmly.
: "Xiao Shuang, this sect has already said that I think you are the most trustworthy disciple, but your answer makes this sect very dissatisfied."
Zi Shuang's face trembled slightly, and she hurriedly knelt down and said: "Sect Master, everything Xiao Shuang said is true and absolutely not false. And you also know, Sect Master, that Uncle Lei and I were both in Wanling Sect before, and we have not been away from the sect for a year.
Uncle Lei and I also met Brother Xiaoyu at that time. Although Brother Xiaoyu treated me well, I really didn't understand him."
Zi Lei's expression tightened, feeling that Du Xuan's words were getting more and more strange. He slightly propped himself up and hurriedly defended Zi Shuang: "Sect Master, what Xiao Shuang said is indeed true. When I met Brother Xiao Yu before,
, I have only helped him once, and this time I helped him just to repay my kindness. As for knowing him, I really don’t know much about him.”
Duxuan didn't seem to listen to Zi Lei's words, his face became darker and darker, and his changing expression finally confirmed, he said indifferently: "Actually, the main purpose of my coming here today is to test your loyalty and commitment to our sect.
Trust. Haha, but you really let this sect down!"
Zi Lei's face changed slightly. As a man with a lot of experience, he clearly felt a very strange aura from Du Xuan's body, even a kind of hostility. He originally retained a trace of trust in Du Xuan, but he was afraid that he would be completely disappointed.
Already.
Duxuan's change of attitude made Zishuang seem at a loss and said hurriedly: "Sect Master, over the years, Uncle Lei and I have treated Wanling Sect as our own home, and we have been loyal to Sui, and we have never had any thoughts of betrayal.
, How dare Xiaoshuang hide anything from you, the sect master."
"Enough!"
Du Xuan waved his big hand, and an invisible force forced Zi Shuang back a little.
The little bear's hair stood on end and he was ready to go.
Zi Shuang was stunned, and Zi Lei's face turned pale, and she said coldly: "Sect Master, Zi Lei is feeling unwell and needs to retreat. Please give me a call..."
"Do you want me to leave?" Du Xuan coldly interrupted Zi Lei. In Zi Lei's eyes, Du Xuan was so strange at this moment. The only thing strange was his greedy and vicious face.
Zi Shuang was also stunned. She didn't expect that Du Xuan, whom she had always respected, would become so strange and scary.
Zi Lei's face was gloomy. He was by no means a person who was greedy for life and afraid of death. He said calmly: "Sect Master, I know that Zi Lei is a useless person now and may be of no value to you. Zi Lei is not afraid of death and can even abandon Xuan Xuan.
Jade, but please don’t embarrass Xiaoshuang, sect master!”
"Father!" Zi Shuang shouted, with some hatred beginning to appear in her eyes.
Duxuan's expression moved slightly, but when he thought of Ling Tianyu, he became cold again and said: "Elder Zi Lei! This sect has no other intentions, we just need your trust! It's possible that even if you lose your life, you can't exchange it for it.
A trust?”
"Sect Master! Xiaoshuang has made it very clear what he should have said. Now it's just that you don't trust us!" Zishuang said coldly.
"Haha, Xiaoshuang, you are not good at lying. Your eyes have already told me that you have deceived our sect!" Duxuan sneered: "Of course, our sect knows that you are loyal to Wanling Sect.
I'm not a heartless person, but please don't force me!"
Zi Lei's eyes were gloomy. He was completely disappointed with Du Xuan. He stood up tremblingly, endured the extreme pain and rolled down from the stone bed. He cupped his hands and said, "Sect Master, we have no intention of forcing you. And I
Now that I’m just a useless person, I can’t bring myself to drag down the Wanling Sect. I ask the sect master to let me and Xiaoshuang go down the mountain for the sake of our friendship over the years!”
Zi Shuang's delicate face trembled, although she didn't want Zi Lei to leave Xuan Yu's protection, but now it seemed that leaving Wan Ling Sect was the best choice.
"Going down the mountain?"
Du Xuan's face darkened, and with a sudden wave of his hand, the powerful true energy locked Zi Lei.
Zi Shuang's charming face turned pale and she shouted: "Du Xuan! What are you doing!"
"Duxuan? Haha..." Duxuan smiled gloomily and said coldly: "I would like to see if trust is really more important than life? So, I ask you, are you willing to look at Zi
Are you going to die? Or are you willing to reveal that kid’s true identity?”
Zishuang was furious and disappointed. How could he not understand that Duxuan was not trying to force out Ling Tianyu's true identity at all, but was just using the topic as an excuse.
Zi Shuang's face was pale. On one side was her family and on the other side was her lover. Such a choice made her extremely painful. Her heart, which was about to be defeated, was traumatized again.
"What? Is it so difficult to choose?" Duxuan looked indifferent and said: "Xiaoshuang, you should understand that if you go to Dongzhou in the future, you will have a bright future. Why should you? In my opinion, you should do everything for us.
The interests of the Ling Sect and the overall situation are taken into consideration. And that boy may be able to create the great cause of our Wan Ling Sect, but of course he can also destroy the foundation of the Wan Ling Sect. As the sect leader, I have no control over myself."
"What an involuntary man! I originally thought you were the elder I respected most! I originally thought Xiong Guangyuan was already a beast! I didn't expect that you are worse than a beast! If Brother Tengfei were still alive, I would be ashamed of you!
"Zishuang said angrily.
The corner of Duxuan's mouth twitched, as if he was hurt by the words, and Lei Ting was furious: "How presumptuous!"
"Sect Master!" Zi Lei shouted and begged: "For the sake of my many years of service to Wan Ling Sect! Zi Lei please let Xiao Shuang go! And! Can you really bear it? She is just a little girl.
Girl!"
"It's because of a foreigner! You have to lose trust in our sect! Is it really that difficult to tell this sect truthfully?" Du Xuan snorted coldly.
trust?
Now Zi Lei and the others think it's ridiculous.
Even if they are willing to tell Ling Tianyu's true identity, they don't think Duxuan will give up.
The little bear on the side finally couldn't bear it anymore.
It initially thought that no matter how greedy and selfish Duxuan was, he would never attack his loyal disciples. But it turned out that Duxuan was more beastly than imagined.
