Just as Xu Hongzhuang was struggling in her heart, the door of the courtyard was opened from the inside, revealing the figure of a young man wearing rough clothes.
This figure was naturally Yun Xiao. He stayed in this courtyard for a day and felt a little stuffy. He was about to come out for some air, but unexpectedly, as soon as he opened the courtyard door, he saw two figures standing outside the courtyard.
They are graceful girls, and one of them looks very familiar.
"Xiaolan?"
Yun Xiao looked at the girl in red with some surprise, and a voice of doubt rang out, but he didn't know the name, which almost made Yuman's eyes pop out.
Xiaolan is Xu Hongzhuang's nickname. In the entire Lingyun Sect, only her mother can call her that. Even the sect leader Xu Lingsong and the old sect leader all call her "Hongzhuang".
Although Yu Man knew that the man in front of him was the young lady's fiancé, but it was too shocking to call him by his breast name just after they met, right?
Yu Man, who was in shock, completely ignored Yun Xiao's call to the young lady's name as soon as she left the house. The two had obviously known each other for a long time, but Xu Hongzhuang was at a loss at this time.
"Why are you here? Could it be that... you are a disciple of Lingyun Sect?"
Yun Xiao first asked doubtfully, and then made a guess. At the same time, he frowned slightly. To be honest, he had a good impression of Xiao Lan, after all, the latter had helped him several times.
But now the Lingyun Sect's situation is unclear. If it is really confirmed that the Lingyun Sect's great elder Yu Qian is the culprit who went to the merchant to exterminate the family, I am afraid that he and the Lingyun Sect will be in a fight to the death.
If Xiao Lan is really a disciple of the Lingyun Sect, not only will the friendship between friends disappear in an instant, but he may also turn into an enemy. This is something Yun Xiao really doesn't want to see.
"A disciple of Lingyun Sect?"
Suddenly hearing Yun Xiao's guess, Yu Man on the side finally came to his senses and said with a smile: "Young Master Yun Xiao, you are so stingy to think like this. Our Miss Hongzhuang is the only daughter of the sect leader.
It’s not comparable to those ordinary disciples!”
Since this was the young lady's fiancé, Yu Man had already preconceived the idea of Yun Xiao as his new uncle, and he spoke in a very close manner, even with a somewhat joking tone.
"The daughter of the sect master? Miss Hongzhuang...?"
Hearing Yu Man's words, Yun Xiao seemed to be struck by a thunder, and his body shook involuntarily. How could he be at all unfamiliar with this name?
But Yun Xiao never expected that the girl Xiaolan, whom he met by chance in Rising Sun City and helped him several times, was actually the fiancée who was engaged to her in her mother's womb and had never been masked: Xu Hongzhuang!
In fact, Yun Xiao himself does not have any special feelings for Xu Hongzhuang. If Longxiao God of War had not been reborn, if there had not been changes in the business, maybe he would have actually gotten married to this Miss Lingyun Sect.
But now, the Lingyun Sect's situation was unclear, and Xu Hongzhuang, whose pseudonym was Xiaolan, had many connections with him. Complex thoughts came to him, and he didn't know how to speak for a while.
"What? Did it scare you? Do you think Xiaolan is more lovable?"
Seeing Yunxiao's appearance, he thought it was the young man's first time meeting his imaginary sweetheart. He was so surprised that Xu Hongzhuang didn't feel so ashamed anymore and smiled.
If Xu Hongzhuang did not know much about Yun Xiao in the past, she was already extremely satisfied with her fiancé since she had accompanied him all the way to Rising Sun City and then fought side by side.
As the beloved daughter of heaven, there are many young talents in the entire Lingtian Empire who want to marry Xu Hongzhuang, whether they are coveting her beauty or coveting the background of the sect leader's daughter.
But for some reason, even among the prodigies and monsters whose talents and backgrounds are not as good as Xu Hongzhuang's, she has never been able to catch her fancy.
It was Yun Xiao, whom she accidentally met in Rising Sun City, whose extraordinary performance captured Xu Hongzhuang's heart. When she later found out Yun Xiao's true identity, she felt that this was fate destined by God.
"You already knew my identity?"
Yun Xiao's face was still a little ugly. He took a deep breath and finally asked. With his intelligence, he had already figured out something.
“At the beginning, I wasn’t very sure, but later you signed up your name and you will naturally know it!”
Xu Hongzhuang didn't hide it. This was also a fact. If the name Yun Xiao hadn't come out, she wouldn't have been sure that this was her fiancé just based on half a jade pendant.
After all, something like a jade pendant may be lost or snatched away by others. Only when the person's name and the jade pendant are combined into one can it be determined.
"What? Are we just standing outside talking like this?"
Xu Hongzhuang smiled sweetly and said half-jokingly, but after she said the words, she remembered something, her face suddenly looked melancholy, and she said: "Forget it, my mother is seriously ill, and I have more important things to do, but
I have to forgive you for staying here for a few more days!"
It turns out that after Xu Hongzhuang heard the news about Yun Xiao, she subconsciously forgot about her mother's illness. Now that she has seen Yun Xiao, she naturally has to prioritize.
"My mother is seriously ill? But the patient you said you wanted to hang yourself with Yuye Vine?"
At this moment, Yun Xiao finally came to his senses, put aside those strange thoughts, and asked. In fact, he didn't have much ill feelings towards Xu Hongzhuang, and he would not refuse if he could help.
"Yes, mother, she..."
Xu Hongzhuang nodded, her voice choked with sobs, and she immediately remembered that the young man in front of her was not very strong. It was best not to let him know too much about these troublesome things.
"As far as I know, although the efficacy of Yuye Vine is amazing, it can only last for half a month at most. Hasn't a cure been found yet?"
Yun Xiao was very knowledgeable and knew the efficacy of Yuye Vine very well. He explained it in one word, which made Xu Hongzhuang and Yuman look shocked.
Suddenly thinking of the ancestral fire that Yun Xiao had used that day, Xu Hongzhuang suddenly had an idea in her mind, and then she heard the young man in front of her say: "Can you take me to see your mother?"
From his own thoughts to others, his mother's kindness to him back then suddenly came to his mind. Yun Xiao blurted out directly. Moreover, the situation in Lingyun Sect was still unclear. With his friendship with Xu Hongzhuang, it was inconvenient to stay out of the matter.
.
"Uncle, are you also a pulse refiner?"
Miss Jian and Yun Xiao have known each other for a long time, and they seem to have a good friendship. Yu Man's title changed from "Young Master" to "Uncle". Yun Xiao and Xu Hongzhuang obviously did not make this transition at this time.
Listen out.
Seeing Yun Xiao nodding, Yu Man said with some melancholy: "But even Elder Guo, a spiritual-level senior pulse refiner, is helpless. My uncle, you can't be more powerful than Elder Guo, right?"
"Uncle?"
This time Yun Xiao finally noticed it and almost spat out a mouthful of blood. Looking to the side of his head, he saw Xu Hongzhuang's face was a little rosy, but she didn't know how to explain it. At the moment, she could only pretend not to hear.
This little girl has a straightforward heart, so Yun Xiao didn't care about her. Seeing him smile, he said with a smile: "When treating diseases and saving people, sometimes it's not the level of pulse refining that matters. Xiao Lan, how about you take me to see her?"
Compared to the name Xu Hongzhuang, for some reason, Yun Xiao still felt that calling her Xiaolan was more familiar. Naturally, Xu Hongzhuang did not hear the difference, and for some reason, she actually nodded her head.
Although like Yuman, Xu Hongzhuang did not believe that Yun Xiao could cure her mother. After all, it was a disease that even a high-level spiritual pulse refiner could not cure.
But when she thought of Yun Xiao's performance in Yibao Pavilion and the full confidence shown on her face, Xu Hongzhuang never thought of refusing. After all, compared to the ethereal earth-level pulse refiner of the royal family, Yun Xiao was just
It's a real and tangible hope.
"Follow me!"
Under Yu Man's surprised gaze, Xu Hongzhuang didn't hesitate at all, turned around and led the way, and soon she arrived at the courtyard where her mother was.
Many of the elders and young disciples who had been guarding the courtyard in the past few days were no longer there. They presumably had their own business to attend to, so Yun Xiao, who entered the courtyard, followed Xu Hongzhuang and opened the door.
There were two old men in the room, one of them was Elder Guo, the chief pulse refiner of Lingyun Sect. As the most powerful elder in the art of pulse refinement, he could not leave for a moment at such a critical moment.
As for the other one, he was the old master of the Lingyun Sect, Xu Lingsong's father. He valued his seriously ill daughter-in-law very much and hoped for a miracle.
"Grandpa, Elder Guo!"
Xu Hongzhuang, who pushed in the door and saw the two elders looking at her, immediately bowed respectfully, and then pushed Yun Xiao out behind her, which made the two elders a little confused.
"This is..."
The old sect master knew that this granddaughter had always been arrogant and could not be admired by so many young talents in the Lingtian Empire. Now she actually brought a strange young man into her mother's room. I am afraid that the relationship between the two is not close.
"Grandpa, he is Yun Xiao!"
Xu Hongzhuang was not pretentious, and she also knew that even if it was a simple name, her grandfather would not be unfamiliar with it.
"Yun Xiao has met the old sect master!"
Although this was the first time he met the old master of the Lingyun Sect, Yun Xiao instantly knew who he was. He was one of the protagonists who had been married to his maternal grandfather.
Li Feng subdued the evil forces, sheathed his sword and smiled with red makeup!
This sentence was passed down as a legend back then, and even the names of Yun Xiao and Xu Hongzhuang came from it. Yun Xiao's maternal ancestor died young, but the old master of Lingyun Sect is still alive.
However, because he didn't quite understand the deep secrets of the Lingyun Sect, Yun Xiao still felt a little wary in his heart. If the merchant destroyed the family, it would all be under the instruction of the old sect leader, and his character was extremely ruthless.
