Chapter 1025: Meeting Xia Yingying Again
âY-You have a small stone in your hand,â replied Guo Po meekly after his eyes shone with an indescribable light.
Xiang Shaoyun smiled and opened his palm. A small stone was indeed there. Everyone was stunned.
Xia Liuhui exclaimed in shock, âHeavens, this kid canât really have divine dao eyes, right?â
âNo, they are not divine dao eyes. Rather, they are inborn unique eyes that allow him to see through the essence of everything. It is very rare, and a person possessing such eyes will be able to easily cultivate them into actual divine dao eyes in the future,â said Xiang Shaoyun in excitement.
âSo, youâre saying this little fellow has a bright future?â asked Xia Liuhui.
âOf course. Elder Zhen Peng has uncovered a gem,â said Xiang Shaoyun.
At this time, Elder Zhen Peng smiled and said, âGuo Po is someone I found by coincidence. The heavens have given him a pair of unique eyes, giving him a large advantage over other people. However, the heavens have also taken one of his legs from him. Perhaps that was why he was discarded by his family. Young master, if this kid is to your liking, please take him as your disciple. I know you can help him recover his leg, and you can also help him reach further in the path of cultivation.â
âHow can I do that? He is your disciple. I canât steal your disciple,â Xiang Shaoyun refused.
Elder Zhen Peng said solemnly, âI know my limitations. Young master, please donât refuse. I do not want to waste Guo Poâs potential.â
âBoss, if youâre not accepting him as your disciple, I will,â said Xia Liuhui.
âThat will most definitely be a waste of his potential,â said Xiang Shaoyun as he rolled his eyes. He looked at Guo Po and asked, âLittle fellow, are you willing to become this young masterâs disciple?â
âW-Will you be able to cure my leg?â asked Guo Po expectantly.
âOf course. Even if you have no legs at all, I can grow them for you. Healing your crippled leg will be easy,â said Xiang Shaoyun confidently.
âIâm willing to become your disciple,â replied Guo Po decisively.
He had been someone with low self-esteem since young. He could not walk like a normal person, and he was unhappy despite his special eyes. He did not know how helpful his eyes would be in cultivation. All he had ever wanted was to be normal.
âUm. You can stay by my side from now on. Of course, you should never forget Elder Zhen Peng either, understand?â said Xiang Shaoyun as he rubbed Guo Poâs head.
âI will forever remember what Grandpa Zhen Peng did for me,â promised Guo Po solemnly.
âGood boy. Remember to cultivate hard by young masterâs side. Grandpa will be waiting to hear your name resound all over the world,â said Elder Zhen Peng.
Little did he expect that what he said here would really happen in the future.
After leaving some items to Elder Zhen Peng, Xiang Shaoyun left with Guo Po. And not long after, they arrived at Xia Hamlet. Xia Hamlet was Xia Liuhuiâs hometown. Looking at the tranquil hamlet, a look of tenderness filled Xia Liuhuiâs eyes.
When he reached the hamlet, he couldnât help but loudly shout, âFellow villagers, I, Xia Liuhui, am back!â
Many years ago when he had walked out of the hamlet, he was still an ignorant young man. Now, he was an adult and had the strength he never thought he would have. One could say that he was returning home with honor.
People started running out after hearing the shout, and when they saw Xia Liuhui, they greeted him in an amicable manner. Xia Liuhui was the son of their chief, Xia Datang. Their chief was known for his kindness and had a high status in the hamlet. During the years Xia Liuhui was gone, their chief had successfully entered the Skysoar Realm, gaining the ability of flight. For these villagers, he was now their guardian.
Xia Datang once attempted to hand over his position as the chief, but the villagers were having none of it. The only person they could respect was Xia Datang, and they begged him to continue as the chief. Two other people were elected as captains to assist him and reduce his workload, allowing him to cultivate in peace.
At this time, a figure dashed out of the hamlet and shouted, âBig brother, is that you?â
The ringing voice belonged to Xia Liuhuiâs sister, Xia Yingying.
She was no longer the budding flower from the past. She had matured into an elegant woman with remarkable temperament and looks. She wore a light red outfit that perfectly showcased her hourglass figure. A bright red sword hung on her waist, making her look bold and heroic.
âYingying, is that really you?â asked Xia Liuhui in disbelief. This Xia Yingying looked like a completely different person than what he remembered.
âBig brother, who else can I be? Oh, where is Young Master Yun? HeâŠ,â asked Xia Yingying as she searched around. Her gaze finally landed on Xiang Shaoyun, and she found herself speechless.
That was because she saw Xiang Shaoyun coming over with Tuoba Wanâer and Gong Qinyin, and it instantly filled her heart with a complicated feeling.
Over the years, she had stayed beside Ye Chaomu. She had long known about the deep affection Ye Chaomu had for Xiang Shaoyun. Under Ye Chaomuâs influence, she also developed a deep affection for Xiang Shaoyun. And when she saw him arriving with two other women, her emotions had become complicated.
Xiang Shaoyun came before her and smiled before saying, âIt has been a while, Yingying. You are even prettier than before.â
Xiang Shaoyunâs smile was bright and warm, causing Xia Yingyingâs heartbeat to accelerate. With her face red, she saluted Xiang Shaoyun and said, âYingying greets Young Master Yun.â
âEnough with the pleasantries. What has Little Mu been teaching you? Youâre not my servant. Just call me Big Brother Shaoyun,â said Xiang Shaoyun with a reproachful tone.
âNo, Young Master Yun is my familyâs benefactor. The young lady has also been taking good care of me. It is only right that I do all I can to repay both of you,â said Xia Yingying.
Xiang Shaoyun palmed his forehead and said, âYingying, you should discard these thoughts. Where is Little Mu? Iâll go teach her a lesson.â
âYoung lady is not here yet. She sent me back in advance to wait for both of you. She is making some preparations and will probably be here soon,â replied Xia Yingying.
âBoss, we can talk more when weâre back home,â said Xia Liuhui.
âSure. Iâll go pay Uncle Xia a visit as well,â said Xiang Shaoyun.
Xia Yingying took the lead and brought the group to her house. She couldnât resist turning to look at Tuoba Wanâer and Gong Qinyin before transmitting to her elder brother, âBig brother, who are those two?â
She was now a second-stage Skysoar Realm cultivator and was far too weak compared to Xiang Shaoyun and Xia Liuhui. However, she had still grown significantly, considering her original strength seven years ago. In fact, she was an entirely new person now.
âBoth of them are your young ladies,â said Xia Liuhui, his voice tinged with envy. He thought to himself gloomily, Had I known this, I should have brought three or four girls back as well. Look how embarrassing it is for me to return alone!
