Battle Through the Heavens: I Am the Righteous Path

Early the next morning, the sun shone into the room. Xiao Yan slowly opened his hazy sleeping face. He raised his hand and lightly scratched his hair. He felt very uncomfortable. He turned his head slightly and found that his hair had gone past his shoulders because he hadn't trimmed it in a year. .

"It's time to get a haircut"

After murmuring like this, he immediately lowered his head and looked at Yun Xiao, who was still sleeping soundly on his body with drool at the corner of his mouth. He looked really cute.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door, and Yun Yun's voice came in immediately.

"Xiao Yan, are you awake?"

"Sister Yunyun, come in."

After Xiao Yan responded, the door opened. Yun Yun saw Xiao Yan sitting up from the bed and Yun Xiao sleeping soundly on top of him, and she showed a warm smile.

Yesterday, Yun Yun was very interested in sleeping in the same room with Xiao Yan, but because of Cai Lin's presence, she was really embarrassed to open her mouth. Coupled with Yun Shan's teasing look, Yun Yun stopped thinking shyly.

But Yun Xiao insisted on sleeping with Xiao Yan. Yun Yun couldn't resist her, and Xiao Yan took the initiative to agree, so she agreed.

"Xiaoxiao, did you sleep well tonight?"

Yun Yun came over and sat comfortably beside the bed. Xiao Yan smiled slightly.

"Unlike when he's awake, this child doesn't stir as much when sleeping." Xiao Yan fiddled with Yun Xiao's hair, looked at Yun Yun and asked, "How many days do you plan to stay?"

"I should go back tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. There are still many things in the sect, so we can't leave for too long." Yun Yun paused and smiled softly, "Originally, we planned to go to Canaan College to worship you today, but now we see This schedule can be cancelled."

"Haha." Xiao Yan smiled, and immediately guilt appeared in his eyes, "I'm sorry for making you worry."

After hearing this, Yun Yun shook her head slightly.

"No need to apologize, as long as you are alive, that's better than anything else."

There was warmth in Xiao Yan's eyes, and he looked at Yun Yun quietly. Their eyes gradually became affectionate. They had not seen each other for a year, and the people they loved were alone in the room, which would always make their hearts restless.

Just when something indescribable was about to happen, Yun Xiao in Xiao Yan's arms let out a low groan, which reminded the two of them that they were not the only ones in the room. They both smiled in embarrassment with red faces. .

As if to escape the embarrassment, Xiao Yan asked.

"Sister Yun Yun, what did you and Cai Lin talk about yesterday? Can you tell me about it?"

"Let's talk about what happened to you this year and some personal matters." Yun Yun said this, with a rare teasing smile in her eyes, "Ten days and ten nights, you are quite good. It’s awesome.”

"."

Xiao Yan suddenly covered his face. Did Cai Lin even tell Yun Yun this?
Immediately Yun Yun stretched out her hand to hold Yun Xiao in her arms and said.

"It's almost time for Xiaoxiao to wake up. I'll take her back to clean up."

"Wait while I pick her up. I'll keep her company before you go back."

"Ah."

Yun Yun stood up and left the room with Yun Xiao in her arms, closing the door gently. Xiao Yan also turned over and started to put on his clothes. After putting them on, he was thinking about what he had to do today.

(Go to the auction house and ask if there is anything that can restore souls. You must restore the souls of Senior Yao and Senior Tianhuo as soon as possible.)

With this thought in his mind, Xiao Yan opened the door and indeed saw his sister Xiao Ling standing at the door. Without thinking much, he raised his hand and said hello.

"Sister, good morning."

Xiao Ling turned a deaf ear to Xiao Yan's greetings and looked at Xiao Yan quietly, which made Xiao Yan's hair stand on end and Xiao Yan's heart trembled slightly.

Xiao Yan experienced not only his mother's tenderness from Xiao Ling, but also his mother's sternness.

After a long time, Xiao Ling sighed deeply, crossed his arms and leaned against the door, and asked softly. "Does the matter between Medusa and Yun Yun make sense?"

Xiao Yan was stunned for a moment, then nodded.

"Yeah, that makes sense."

Saying this, Xiao Yan looked a little embarrassed, as if he was a child who had made a mistake.

"Now that it makes sense, I shouldn't have to worry about it anymore." Let's talk, Xiao Ling sighed again, "You kid, you really don't make people worry."

Then Xiao Ling paused and asked in a solemn voice.

"Are you planning to go directly to Zhongzhou from now on?"

"Well, I have to rescue Sister Xiao Yu." Then Xiao Yan pinched his chin strangely, his eyes full of doubts, "But I still don't know why the Soul Palace wants to arrest Sister Xiao Yu. Logically speaking, Sister Xiao Yu and them should It has nothing to do with it?"

"I've thought about this too. At first I thought it was you who disrupted the layout of the Soul Palace many times, so the Soul Palace took people related to you as hostages to gain something. But this guess soon became clear to me. Rejected." Xiao Ling leaned against the wall and said calmly: "There are many more important people to you. Father, me, your second sister, or Yun Yun and Yun Xiao, in the eyes of outsiders, their relationship with you But the relationship between Xiao Yu and you is much closer, so even if the Soul Palace wants to capture hostages, it won’t be Xiao Yu’s turn.”

"And Xiao Yu herself has nothing to do with the Soul Palace. She doesn't have any special bloodline or special abilities. The Soul Palace has no reason to arrest her in front of so many people even if her identity is exposed."

"After ruling out all the possibilities, I only got an unlikely guess." Xiao Ling paused and looked a little weird, "That's them. They arrested the wrong person."

"Did you catch the wrong person?"

Xiao Yan raised his eyebrows, it shouldn't be the case, right?That was the Soul Palace, the number one force in Zhongzhou Continent. Even his teacher Yao Shen, the continent's number one alchemist, was afraid of him. He wouldn't make the mistake of arresting the wrong person, right?
Xiao Ling also saw Xiao Yan's disbelieving look and said lightly.

"Yan'er, don't think that those big forces are so magical. No matter what it is, no matter how huge the force is, as long as things are operated by people, there will definitely be a chance of making mistakes." Xiao Ling pinched his chin lightly. , said slowly: "I gave an order to my subordinates half a year ago. Because it was just a small matter, I didn't formally write it down. I just asked the people below to convey it one by one."

"However, after half a month, the matter was not resolved. I was very surprised at the time, so I went to find out more about it. I found that my order had been conveyed through many layers, and the order conveyed to the executor's ears and the meaning of the order I gave were completely different. It’s different.”

Xiao Ling's words made Xiao Yan frown tightly.

"Sister, what do you mean?"

"The reason why Xiao Yu was taken away is probably because the executor accepted the wrong order and took Xiao Yu away due to misunderstanding." Xiao Ling paused and continued: "However, even though it was a wrong order, he will be taken away. There must be a reason for the misunderstanding of Xiao Yu. It is very likely that the original order contains the words [Xiao] and [Yu]."

"So according to my speculation, the original order from the Soul Palace should be to [bring a certain piece of jade from the Xiao family]. Following this speculation, I found the most likely item in the Xiao family."

With that said, Xiao Ling gently touched Najie, and a piece of jade appeared in his hand and appeared in front of Xiao Yan.

It was a very simple fan-shaped jade, and it looked obviously incomplete. According to the shape of the jade, the complete jade should be a round jade, but the jade in Xiao Ling's hand was only one-eighth the size. .

"Sister, what is this?"

"This is an ancient jade passed down from generation to generation in the Xiao family. My father got it from my grandfather when he took over as the patriarch. As for what this jade is, my grandfather doesn't know. He only said that this jade is very important to the Xiao family. ." Xiao Ling said, raising his eyebrows lightly, "And this ancient jade may not only be related to the Soul Palace, but also to Xun'er."

"Xun'er?"

Xiao Yan was suddenly stunned and Xiao Ling asked softly.

"Yan'er, do you know Xun'er's family situation?"

"I don't know. I never asked, and Xun'er never mentioned it."

In response to Xiao Ling's inquiry, Xiao Yan shook his head slightly, and Xiao Ling continued.

"Although my father doesn't know much about it, one thing that is certain is that Xun'er's family is in Zhongzhou, and the family's power is quite large. However, for such a huge family, Xun'er's father, as the patriarch, actually sent his daughter Don’t you think it’s strange to ask the little Xiao family to help take care of it?”

"If my guess is correct, Xun'er is very likely to come here for this piece of ancient jade." (End of Chapter)
