Chapter 640 The Past Chapter: Jianghu Situation 59
Nan Xiao had selfishly thought about it countless times.
If they entered the palace with their father, would they be able to withstand the imperial guards with their strong martial arts? Would the outcome be different?
What puzzled her the most was why they left so suddenly.
Xiao Cheng got angry when he remembered the scene where she had made his son sad just now. He snorted coldly, folded his arms and turned his head away, ignoring her.
Nan Xiao: “…”
In the end, Shi Yan was kind enough to answer her questions.
It turned out that after Shi Yan heard the news of Nan Xiao's disappearance, he fell seriously ill and was bedridden. The continuous high fever, wind and cold almost destroyed his body.
However, they also invited many doctors to come and look at her, but to no avail. At that time, Divine Doctor Li was staying at the Hidden Sword Villa, so they hurriedly took Shi Yan back for treatment.
Unexpectedly, as soon as they arrived at Hidden Sword Villa, bad news soon came from Yanjing. The couple naturally understood Nan Hong's character, and there was no way he would do anything like rebellion.
When they brought the disciples from Hidden Sword Villa over, they found that Emperor Qi had invited the killers from Linglong Pavilion to protect him. He must have known that they would definitely come, so he specially brought in the Jianghu forces to deal with them.
After several twists and turns, they finally got Nan Hong's body back. However, it was not feasible or even possible to assassinate the emperor to avenge Nan Hong. It would plunge the entire world into chaos.
.
What's more, they were still worried about their son's illness at home, so they couldn't stay in Yanjing longer.
After hearing this, Nan Xiao nodded, expressed her gratitude to the couple again, and then turned and left.
"Wait a minute, Xiaoxiao, what's going on between you and Yan'er..."
However, the girl in red did not stop there, nor did she look back. She walked forward resolutely. She came and went in vain. She was always alone, but her back was still lonely and lonely.
Shi Yan subconsciously turned his head to look at his son, only to see his eyes were slightly red and moist, staring blankly at the figure in red that was gradually going away, suppressing the urge to catch up.
"Oh, what is this silly boy doing standing there! Why don't you hurry up and chase after him!" Xiao Cheng said with hatred.
Shi Yan also sighed: "After all, they are destined to be together. The two children have their own ideas, so let's not worry about it. Xiaoxiao is much calmer than Yan'er. I only hope that Yan'er can get over this relationship quickly."
Come out..."
A son is like a father. After hearing this, Xiao Cheng snorted coldly: "I don't think he will be able to get out in this life."
Since childhood, Shi Yan has lived for her, so how could he be separated from her.
Because of this, he was unwilling to give in. The more he showed a humble posture in front of her, the more completely he would lose.
…
Not long after Nan Xiao walked out of Hidden Sword Villa, she met Zi Yan in the inn who came to find her with her followers.
"This subordinate knows that he will definitely take you home." She joked with a smile, "Does the leader want to return to the Demon Cult and prepare to marry him, or does he want to recruit him as his wife?"
Zi Yan thought that during the time they were together, they must have talked things out and reconciled. The fact that the Demon Cult did not attack Hidden Sword Villa was the best proof.
When Nan Xiao heard this, her eyes were calm, as if she had already looked away, and there was no regret in her heart.
"Let's go back to the Demon Cult first..."
As soon as Nan Xiao finished speaking, she caught a glimpse of an afterimage in her peripheral vision. The man was extremely skilled in light skills and was running towards her quickly. She didn't know if he was an enemy or a friend, but she instinctively felt that there was a dangerous aura, and she immediately responded with
Face the enemy with your palm.
"boom--"
The powerful wave of energy that burst out between the two strong men shook all the tables, chairs and benches around them.
Nan Xiao's other hand showed an embroidery needle as a hidden weapon. The man was also very alert and quickly retracted his hand, trying to retreat to a safe area behind him.
Unexpectedly, Nan Xiao quickly put away the embroidery needle and slapped him with another palm, right on his chest. He was sent flying several meters away and his body hit the heavy wall.
"Master Lotus, are you okay?"
The young man in monk's robes was surrounded by a group of young disciples holding sword hilts, all of them with wary eyes.
"This witch is really powerful. Even Master Fahua's Diamond Subduing Demonic Palm has no effect on her at all."
"If she is really weak, then we at Linglong Pavilion don't need to ask Master Fahua to come out to subdue this monster like her!"
"Yes, Master will definitely be able to defeat the witch and give us Linglong Pavilion justice!"
However, Master Fahua, whom they firmly trusted, still sat on the ground and could not stand up, and was vomiting blood.
Nan Xiao only felt that these people seemed to be mentally retarded, "Who are these people?"
"From what they said, they should be the Linglong Pavilion disciples who had a lucky escape. They found a helper from somewhere and wanted to kill the leader to take revenge."
"Why aren't they dead yet?"
Nan Xiao is still very clear about the current combat power of the Demon Sect, and it is unlikely that he will be unable to deal with even a few disciples of Linglong Pavilion.
Zi Yan quickly complained: "It's because of the incompetence of my subordinates. They fled all the way to Lingmen Temple. There is a powerful master Huizhi sitting there. Qin An can't defeat him."
"If it's him, it wouldn't be surprising."
Regarding this person's characteristic of always holding her back, Nan Xiao was clear in her heart and no longer had much hope in him.
"Qin An is not suitable for charging into battle. You and your wife should discuss it and arrange a more reliable place for him."
Zi Yan said: "As early as the moment the news came back, Qin Chuan transferred him back and asked Xu Lang to take over the position of right protector. However, he was also defeated by Master Huizhi and is now in the Demon Cult.
Recuperate from injury."
Nan Xiao glanced at Master Fahua and stepped forward slowly. She was not a virtuous person and would not show mercy to someone who wanted to harm her.
"Master Lotus, get up quickly!"
As Nan Xiao gradually approached, the disciples of Linglong Pavilion also became frightened.
They knew that they could not defeat Nan Xiao, so they wanted to take revenge by killing her with the help of others.
These monks are easy to talk to and have already injured several of her men.
So, they encouraged Master Lotus to go down the mountain and destroy the witches of the Demon Cult, thus eliminating harm for the common people in the world.
They estimated that Master Fahua's strength might injure Nan Xiao, and by then, they would be able to kill her with a sneak attack.
But who would have thought that Master Fahua's martial arts was so poor? The opponent only used one move and he was knocked to the ground.
Obviously, these younger disciples of Linglong Pavilion know nothing about the power of Ice Palm.
At that time, Nan Xiao was thinking about a question.
If nothing else happens, Master Huizhi will come over and kill her, right?
When Cao Cao arrived, a young monk in white robes walked outside the door. He had a kind face and a steady and mature temperament.
"Amitabha, please be lenient and spare the life of this poor monk."
The disciples of Linglong Pavilion looked excited: "Master Huizhi is here, great, now we are saved!"
