Fox Demon: Starts with Lu Zu template

I’ll give it back to that little girl next time we meet.

Yang Jian opened his heavenly eye slightly and looked into the distance.

Although Feng Qi allowed her to escape with the help of the space secret treasure this time, his attack still left considerable damage to the other party.

"Well, you're lucky." Yang Jian leaped up and turned into a ray of silver light that streaked across the night sky and rushed towards the distance.

Under the moonlight, the mountains and rivers of the south gradually disappear into the distance.

On the ruins of the imperial palace, Huan Du Luolan stood at the highest point, staring blankly at the direction where Yang Jian left, unwilling to leave for a long time.

The night wind blew by, carrying away the girl's whispers: "Don't forget me..."

.........

.........

In the courtyard of Shenhuoshan Villa, Dongfang Qinlan sat bored on a stone bench, holding her chin with her hands and looking at the distant sky.

Ever since her elder sister Dongfang Huaizhu married into the Wang Quan family, she was the only one left in the huge villa.

Her father was busy with farm work all day, and she was trapped within these high walls, with no one to talk to.

"Oh..." Dongfang Qinlan sighed and kicked the pebbles on the ground unconsciously with her toes.

She also wanted to go out and see the world by herself, and travel the world like her sister, doing justice.

But every time I mentioned it to my father, I was sternly rejected.

Moreover, it would be difficult for her to escape secretly, as Dongfang Gu Yue was keeping a close watch on her.

Afraid that Dongfang Qinlan would sneak out.

"I don't know what Dad is worried about. It's not the first time I've gone out..." Dongfang Qinlan muttered.

Although she used to go out with her sister.

At this moment, the figure of a young man in silver armor suddenly appeared in her mind.

That powerful but cunning young man, Yang Jian.

Thinking of Yang Jian, Dongfang Qinlan's eyes suddenly lit up.

How nice it would be if that big brother who is so powerful but always treats her kindly could take her out to travel!

"If you can hear me, come to me quickly!" Dongfang Qinlan whispered to the sky, with a hint of anticipation in her tone.

"What are you thinking about? So engrossed?" A clear male voice suddenly came from behind.

"I'm wondering when I can..." Dongfang Qinlan answered subconsciously, but suddenly froze in the middle of her words.

This voice... She turned around suddenly and saw a young man in silver armor looking at her with a smile on the roof not far away.

The sunlight shone on his body, giving him a golden halo.

"Yang Jian! Why are you here!" Dongfang Qinlan jumped up in surprise, her little face flushed with excitement.

She couldn't believe her eyes. The person she was thinking about the last second appeared in front of her the next second!

Yang Jian leaped lightly and landed in front of Dongfang Qinlan.

He squatted down and ruffled her hair like a little sister: "You call me, and I will always come."

Dongfang Qinlan's eyes widened as she stammered, "You...can you hear me?"

She just said it casually! Could it be that Yang Jian could really hear her inner voice?

"Of course, I said that I will come as long as you call me." A smile flashed in Yang Jian's eyes.

"So, you called me here just because you were bored?"

Dongfang Qinlan scratched her head awkwardly and said with a wry smile, "Oh, this is boring...my sister is now married to the Wang Quan family, and I'm home alone, and my father won't let me go out on my own!"

She suddenly remembered something and added hastily, "Oh, this time it doesn't count! I didn't know I could call you over like that. Ignorance doesn't count!"

Yang Jian shook his head helplessly, stood up and made to leave: "Okay, then I'll leave first."

"No!" Dongfang Qinlan grabbed Yang Jian's sleeve and shook his arm like a coquettish kitten.

"Since you're here, why don't you take me with you to play... I'm going crazy being alone at home!"

Faced with Dongfang Qinlan's constant nagging, Yang Jian finally softened his heart.

He sighed. "Okay, I can take you out! But only for one day."

"That's great!" Dongfang Qinlan cheered and couldn't wait to hold Yang Jian's hand.

"We're leaving now!"

Yang Jian smiled slightly and formed a seal with one hand.

The next second, the two figures disappeared from the courtyard.

......

When Dongfang Qinlan saw the surroundings clearly again, they were already standing on the streets of a prosperous city.

The bustling crowd, the constant hawking sounds, and the aroma of various delicacies floating in the air made the little girl's eyes shine with excitement.

"This is Qingyang City, which is closest to Shenhuoshan Villa." Yang Jian explained.

"We only have one day, and I must get you back before dark."

Dongfang Qinlan nodded repeatedly, and couldn't wait to pull Yang Jian into the crowd: "I know, I know! Look over there, there are candied haws!"

In the following time, Dongfang Qinlan explored the city like a bird out of a cage.

She held a string of candied haws in her left hand, a newly bought candy figure in her right hand, and her mouth was full of freshly baked pastries.

Yang Jian followed behind her, reminding her to eat slowly from time to time.

"Yang Jian, look at this!" Dongfang Qinlan stopped in front of a jewelry stall and picked up an exquisite silver hairpin.

"Does it look good?"

Yang Jian nodded: "It suits you very well."

Dongfang Qinlan smiled slyly: "When my sister comes back next time, I will give it to her!"

Looking at the little girl's joyful expression, Yang Jian reluctantly took out some silver to pay the bill.

Then the other party continued to jump forward and explore.

At noon, the two had dinner in a restaurant.

Dongfang Qinlan wolfed down the local specialties. It must be said that she ate with a completely focused mind.

"Eat slowly, no one is going to snatch it from you." Yang Jian poured her a glass of water.

Dongfang Qinlan swallowed the food in her mouth and suddenly asked, "Brother Yang Jian, what do you usually do? Why do you always appear and disappear mysteriously?"

Yang Jian took a sip of tea. "Traveling around, dealing with some...special matters."

"Can you take me with you?" Dongfang Qinlan's eyes sparkled.

"I can help you!"

"No." Yang Jian refused decisively, "It's too dangerous."

Dongfang Qinlan pouted and was about to refute.

But Yang Jian was firm, "I said no and it means no!"

"Hurry up and eat yours. I'll take you home after you finish."

Hearing this, Dongfang Qinlan immediately lost her temper.

Chapter 201 The Masked Group Arrives

The night was as dark as ink, and the gate of Shenhuoshan Villa glowed faintly in the moonlight.

Yang Jian walked Dongfang Qinlan to the door and patted her shoulder gently: "Go back quickly, I have to leave."

Dongfang Qinlan did not leave immediately, but instead pulled Yang Jian's sleeve, raised her little face and asked: "Um...thank you today!"

She hesitated for a moment and added, "Also, why do I feel like you're so nice to me?"

Yang Jian was slightly startled, then reached out and rubbed her hair, saying softly, "No need to thank me. As for why I'm so nice to you..."

He paused, "You look a lot like one of my sisters..."

"Sister?" Dongfang Qinlan tilted her head, her face full of confusion.

She knew that Yang Jian and Yang Yitan were brothers, but she had never heard that he had a sister!

"Well, don't think too much, she's just my sister!" Yang Jian seemed unwilling to talk more, and before leaving, he flicked her forehead mischievously.

"Ouch!" Dongfang Qinlan covered her forehead with her hands. When she looked up again, Yang Jian had disappeared into the night.

"Damn...it hurts..." she muttered, but couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth.

Although she didn't understand why Yang Jian was so good to her, at least he was the best person to her besides his father and sister.

......

Half a month later, at Wangquan Villa.

The morning sun shone on the martial arts training ground. Wang Quan Baiye held an ordinary iron sword in his hand, and every move he made contained amazing power.

From sunrise to now, he has been practicing for three hours straight. His clothes are soaked with sweat, but he has no intention of stopping.

Ever since he married Dongfang Huaizhu, he has been maintaining this almost crazy state of cultivation.

The shame of losing the royal sword and his father's dying instructions all became his motivation to move forward.

The last battle in Wudi City.

He had a deep understanding of the sword strike his father made before his death, and he felt that he was only one step away from truly understanding the legendary royal sword intent.

"Take a break and don't get too tired." A gentle voice came from behind.

Dongfang Huaizhu stood at the edge of the martial arts training ground, holding a sweat towel, his eyes full of heartache.

Wang Quan Baiye practiced a few more moves before putting away his sword and walking to Huai Zhu.

Dongfang Huaizhu pulled him to sit on a stone bench and gently wiped the sweat from his forehead with an embroidered handkerchief.

"If you continue to train like this, your body won't be able to take it." Dongfang Huaizhu advised softly.

She knew the heavy responsibility he shouldered, but seeing him working so hard every day, she couldn't help but feel a dull pain in her heart.

Wang Quan Baiye held Huai Zhu's hand and said firmly, "I'm sorry, Huai Zhu, but I have to do this. I must take back the Wang Quan Sword with my own hands!"

Dongfang Huaizhu sighed and said no more.

She understood that retrieving the Sword of Kingship had become the other party's greatest obsession.

That was the family treasure that Wang Quan Shouzhuo entrusted to Wang Quan Baiye before his death, and it was also a symbol of the Wang Quan family's thousand-year heritage.

If he doesn't take it back, Wang Quanye will probably never forgive himself.

"My younger sister wrote to me some time ago," Dongfang Huaizhu changed the subject.

"She asked me to ask if Yitan had a younger sister."

"Sister?" Wang Quan Baiye frowned slightly.

"I've never heard that Yi Tan has a sister! He does have two brothers. One is Yang Jian, as you know, and the other is said to be his aunt's son..."

He looked at his wife in confusion, "Why is Qin Lan asking this?"

Dongfang Huaizhu shook his head: "I don't know either, I just know that's what she asked."

Wang Quan Baiye thought for a moment and said, "I'll ask again next time we meet."

He pulled his wife to sit down, "Come, you sit down first."

The two sat opposite each other, their eyes filled with tenderness.

The sunlight shines through the gaps in the leaves, casting mottled shadows on the two people.

Dongfang Huaizhu's cheeks were faintly flushed in the sunlight, and Wang Quan Baiye unconsciously reached out to touch her face.

At this tender moment, an inopportune voice suddenly rang out: "Brother, are you in there?"

Wang Quanzui pushed the door open and walked in, just in time to see the intimate scene between his brother and sister-in-law.
