Chapter 613: Chapter 273: The Adorable Wife with a Tough Mouth and a Soft Heart
Liu Xiaotang was very obedient. That night, when Qiu Zhihe told her to find a house to rest, she returned to her home.
That night, Ming Hu came aggressively to kill; the spiritual power pressure of a sixth-layer Nascent Soul nearly crushed Liu Xiaotang to death. Later, Su Xin was seriously injured, and the crowd became chaotic.
Various things that seemed like myths and legends to her came rapidly, as if a brand new door had been opened.
Although she was incredibly curious and longing in her heart, Liu Xiaotang still remembered the Fairyâs orders, hiding in the house, not daring to come out.
Until now, seeing the Fairy was about to leave, she couldnât help but run out.
Seeing Liu Xiaotang kneeling in front of Qiu Zhihe, the others then remembered that there was an ordinary girl.
Su Xin couldnât bear it and softly said to Liu Xiaotang, "Little girl, we are disciples of the Zhenyang Sect, and Zhenyang Sect does not allow those without cultivation to ascend the mountain. You cannot follow us."
Liu Xiaotangâs face turned pale, she desperately kowtowed, pleading to Qiu Zhihe: "Fairy, Fairy, please take me away. I am willing to be a servant and maid, as long as I can follow you."
Xu Caihe couldnât help but whisper, "Senior Sister, isnât the Qiluo Gardenâs also with maids and servants? This little girl could go there as Junior Sister Ruoâs maid."
Su Xin shook her head, "Xiaotang comes from a village under the Celestial Fall Sect. If discovered, sheâll be treated as a Demon Sect spy."
"Ah?" Zhou LingâEr opened her mouth wide, "But she is clearly an ordinary person, the sect wouldnât be that unreasonable, would it?"
Qiu Zhihe sneered, "Zhenyang Sect has always eradicated the Demon Sect. When has it ever been reasonable?"
Su Xin lowered her head in silence without arguing.
Xu Caihe and Zhou LingâEr looked at each other, remembering the countless corpses of innocent ordinary people seen at Cyan Lotus Mountain, and suddenly remained silent.
Liu Xiaotang crawled to Qiu Zhihe, her fingers cautiously touched her shoe, she wept:
"Fairy, you are the one who saved me. This servant only wants to follow you, even if you ask me to die, I would do it without hesitation, just please do not abandon me."
Qiu Zhihe looked down at her and suddenly sneered, "You want to follow me just because you donât want to be an ordinary person anymore, dominated by othersâ fate, not out of gratitude, right?"
Liu Xiaotang paused, raised her head, having washed up, her small oval face looked bright and charming, paired with those lively eyes, she was indeed a budding beauty.
Especially in those eyes, there was a hint of ambition so obvious because of her youth.
As Qiu Zhihe said, Liu Xiaotang had been oppressed by Celestial Fall Sect for so many years. Now having seen the divine power of Qiu Zhihe and others, she could no longer be content being an ordinary person.
"Fairy, I... I want to learn spells, I want to be just like you, act decisively, eradicate enemies, and protect important people!"
Qiu Zhihe was slightly startled and looked at her meaningfully, "How do you know I want to kill enemies?"
Liu Xiaotang looked at her with clear eyes, "Because you gave me the dagger for killing enemies. I... I want to learn spells well to help you kill enemies!"
Qiu Zhihe laughed, "Youâll die."
"Dying for you, Iâm not afraid!"
Liu Xiaotang said loudly, her gaze firm.
Qiu Zhihe nodded slightly, and suddenly extended her finger to point at Liu Xiaotangâs forehead.
Liu Xiaotangâs face instantly turned deathly pale, her body trembled violently.
Su Xin was shocked, hurriedly said, "Junior Sister Ruo, sheâs just an ordinary person, she cannot withstand spiritual power transmission."
The so-called spiritual power transmission means using spiritual power to directly pass the cultivation technique mantra into the other partyâs spirit field, mostly used by masters to teach disciples.
However, this requires the disciple to have a certain spiritual power foundation; if itâs an ordinary person with no spiritual power, such transmission would only result in exploding and dying.
Su Xin spoke out to stop, others also showed expressions of reluctance to watch, only Qin Gengyun didnât speak, smiling at Qiu Zhihe.
Liu Xiaotang trembled all over, blood even flowed from the corners of her mouth, but she made no sound, desperately enduring.
A moment later, Qiu Zhihe finally withdrew her finger, and Liu Xiaotang collapsed to the ground, struggling to prop herself up, respectfully kowtowing three times:
"Thank you, Master!"
Qiu Zhihe looked indifferently at Liu Xiaotang, said, "I can take you away, but you cannot go with me to the Zhenyang Sect. I will send you to another place, do you agree?"
Liu Xiaotang knelt on the ground, respectfully said, "I agree!"
Qiu Zhihe said to Qin Gengyun, "Husband, you take her on the Phoenix."
Qin Gengyun nodded, everyone rose with sword control, Qin Gengyun climbed onto the Phoenix, reaching out to Liu Xiaotang.
Liu Xiaotang bowed and saluted, but did not grab Qin Gengyunâs hand, instead climbed onto the Phoenixâs back herself, with difficulty.
"Xiaotang, the first time you ride a Phoenix, if youâre scared, you can hold onto me."
Qin Gengyun said to her, Liu Xiaotang hurriedly said, "Thank you, Immortal Master, I can manage."
The Phoenix cried out once, suddenly soared, Liu Xiaotang yelled, almost falling off.
Qin Gengyun reached out to help her, but Liu Xiaotang dodged, only clinging to the Phoenixâs back, desperately holding onto the red feathers.
The Phoenix clucked unhappily, glared at her, Liu Xiaotang jumped in fright, hurriedly released the Phoenixâs feathers, her body wobbled, but still maintained a distance from Qin Gengyun.
Qin Gengyun was somewhat puzzled, "Arenât you afraid of falling off?"
Liu Xiaotang lowered her head, said, "You are Masterâs husband, men and women are different; if I have physical contact with you, it is a great disrespect."
Qin Gengyun laughed, turned to look at Qiu Zhihe who was controlling her sword beside, only to see Qiu Zhiheâs lips slightly curved. Seeing him look over, she huffed coldly, the smile disappeared.
Qin Gengyun shook his head with amusement; his wife truly had a soft heart beneath her strong demeanor.
Earlier, she seemed not to care about Liu Xiaotangâs life and death, using spiritual power to transmit technique to her, but Qin Gengyun could sense Qiu Zhihe had separated some spiritual power to protect Liu Xiaotangâs meridians and spirit field during the transmission, helping her successfully absorb the transmission.
Yet, his wife chose not to say it, still acting the cold part.
Even considering that Liu Xiaotang is an ordinary person, fearing she wouldnât stand steady flying with sword control, instead letting himself take her on the Phoenix.
To date, the only women who could ride the Phoenix with Qin Gengyun were Qiu Zhihe herself and Mo Xiaolan.
Even Liu Su was not allowed.
Yet, the jealous Qiu Zhihe arranged for Liu Xiaotang to ride with Qin Gengyun.
It shows Qiu Zhihe still cared about this little girl.
So soft-hearted, yet pretending to be tough.
Qin Gengyun couldnât help but transmit sound to Qiu Zhihe:
"Wife, youâre so adorable."
Qiu Zhihe was startled, immediately glared at him.
Knowing she was thin-skinned, Qin Gengyun did not continue to expose her and transmitted sound to ask:
"Wife, where do you plan to send Liu Xiaotang?"
Qiu Zhihe paused, then transmitted her sound in reply:
"Yunling Town."
