.Casually tucking the sword bone under his pillow, Xie Ziyou rubbed his face hard, trying his best to soften his facial features. He then opened the door.

The pink-dressed woman slowly entered the room and used her dark red fingertips to lift Xie Ziyou’s chin. She examined him carefully, and the worry in her eyes receded a little.

Wang Yun’s fingernails were sharp and slightly cold. They pressed against the soft skin of Xie Ziyou’s chin, making him feel as if a blade was pressed against his throat.

Her gaze was also strange. Although the worry in her eyes was heavy, her expression was clear. She didn’t look like a true loving mother who was worried about her youngest son. Instead …

It was as if she was worried about a precious treasure and was observing it to see if there were any cracks.

Xie Ziyou felt uncomfortable under her gaze. He slightly tilted his head and whispered, “I’m fine. Mother, you don’t have to worry.”

Only then did Wang Yun smile. She stretched out her hand and gently caressed Xie Ziyou’s cheek.

She wore several rings on her finger, some gold and some jade. The cold carving marks brushed against Xie Ziyou’s cheek, leaving a thin red mark. It was slightly painful.

“You scared your father and me to death,” Wang Yun said angrily. “You’re exploring the secret realm for no reason? That secret realm is a place that eats people without spitting out their bones. The young master of the He family was planted in there. When he left, he was alive and kicking, but when he came back, he was carried back. If anything happened to you, what would you do to me and your father? ”

The woman’s tone was bitter and her breathing was rapid. Her chest heaved up and down violently, and there was a clear fear in her eyes.

Xie Ziyou was stunned for a moment and suddenly felt a little guilty.

He had played the role of the villain, and had always treated the Xie couple as villains. He was unwilling to have a heart-to-heart talk with them.

But at this moment, seeing the lingering fear in Wang Yun’s heart, Xie Ziyou, who hadn’t seen his family for a long time, couldn’t help but feel a surge of emotion. He wondered, was it because he had such a strong impression of them that he always looked at these two people with a prejudiced gaze and ignored the truth?

They really weren’t good people. It could be said that they were cruel and merciless when they poisoned Xie Heng and dug up his bones. But for this son of his, “Xie Ziyou,” perhaps … they really cared for him?

Thinking of this, Xie Ziyou’s tone softened. He put down his guard and comforted her in a soft voice, “Mother, I’m back fine, right?”

“Yes, it’s a good thing you came back safely.” Wang Yun carefully examined Xie Ziyou’s face. A hint of a smile finally appeared on her face. “The rest of Mother’s life depends on you. You ‘er, you can’t let Mother down.”

Xie Ziyou laughed dryly. “Of course, of course.”

Ever since he had transmigrated, he had always deliberately avoided this pair of cheap parents. At this moment, it was very awkward for him to get along with them. He racked his brain for a while and finally thought of a way to talk to Wang Shi.

Xie Ziyou smiled cleverly. His tone carried the playfulness and pride of a young man. He said in high spirits, “Mother, actually, my cultivation has improved since I went to the mystic realm.”

Wang Yun said, “Cultivation isn’t important. You just need to practice. You ‘er, from now on, stay at home and don’t run around. Don’t make Mother worry. ”

Xie Ziyou thought to himself, how could he do that? He was planning to immediately set off to find Xie Heng in the Xuan Ling Sect that he had never heard of.

Besides, wasn’t Wang Yun stripping the main character’s sword bones just to make his own son stand out?

Why was he saying something like cultivation wasn’t important now?

Xie Ziyou furrowed his brows suspiciously, but he didn’t think too much about it.

In order to dispel Wang Yun’s worries about “going out to train”, Xie Ziyou thought for a moment and said frankly, “Actually, other than my cultivation, I had other fortuitous encounters when I came back from the mystic realm. I always felt that my body was more transparent, my profound energy circulation was faster, and the rate at which I absorbed spirit energy was also faster. ”

He was talking about the changes that had occurred to his body after he had been hit by the chaotic energy in the spatial passageway. He had been unconscious for several dozen days, not only because his mind was shaken, but also because his body had to adapt to the new profound energy circulation pattern.

Xie Ziyou had just woken up, so he didn’t feel too much.

Now that he had calmed down, he could clearly feel that his affinity with profound energy had increased. He didn’t need to deliberately cultivate, and there was still an endless flow of spirit energy flowing into the acupoints in his body.

Xie Ziyou didn’t think that this was a big deal, and only thought that it was a side effect of his cultivation increasing.

He didn’t expect that Wang Yun’s reaction would be abnormally intense when she heard this. Her eyes suddenly widened, and the corners of her eyes that were smeared with gorgeous rouge rose. She was overjoyed, and she blurted out, “You’re enlightened?”

Xie Ziyou, “???”

What do you mean?

You want to beat around the bush and call me stupid?

The youth was slightly stunned, but he didn’t have time to say anything.

The woman in front of him suddenly pressed down on his shoulder and pushed him into the house. She said with a straight face, “Stay in the house, and don’t go anywhere. I’ll get your father to come over and take a look.”

Wang Yun’s eyes narrowed slightly, and a hint of sharpness appeared in her charming eyes.

She lifted her skirt and took small steps out of the house. She didn’t forget to shout to the servant waiting at the door, “Keep an eye on him, don’t let him go out!”

The woman’s figure disappeared outside the door, and the vermilion door closed with a ‘pa’ sound. The sunlight seemed to have been cut off by a knife, and the house was instantly dark and silent.

There was a long silence.

The System couldn’t help but ask softly, “You You?”

It was also somewhat confused.

Xie Ziyou suddenly came back to his senses, and angrily rolled his eyes in the direction Wang Yun had left.

He had been slightly touched by the care he had received before.

But at this moment, Wang Yun had turned on him just like that. The sudden ecstasy caused her delicate face to twist slightly, and the worry she had expressed earlier was false and perfunctory, as if it was only on paper.

… … It was simply a waste of emotion.

… …

Inside the Xuan Ling Sect, the towering mountains were shrouded in smoke and clouds.

On one of the steep peaks, Xie Heng was sitting on a green rock outside the house. His legs, which were so long that they were unbelievably long, were casually swaying. His deep eyes were filled with thoughts as he stared at the sky in a daze.

The setting sun melted gold, and the world seemed to have become a huge furnace. The multicolored clouds were better than the most dazzling flames, and half the sky was dyed a magnificent orange red.

On top of the peak, the scenery was even more magnificent. The golden light shone on the youth’s handsome face, overflowing with worry. It added a layer of light to the sharp edges of his face, making him appear both tender and melancholy.

“Little Junior Brother!”

A voice called out from afar. Xie Heng turned his head and saw Pei Yunyin, who was dressed in a neat black robe, walking quickly towards him.

Pei Yunyin’s long robe fluttered in the wind, and his hair was a bit messy. Beads of sweat appeared on his forehead, drenching his hair. His steps were also a bit hurried.

“Is there anyone in the house?” The youth asked in distress. “Can I hide?”

Xie Heng smiled and said, “No one. Senior Brother, please do as you please.”

He paused for a moment, then asked curiously, “Senior Brother, is someone chasing you?”

“There’s no such thing,” Pei Yunyin’s eyes rolled, and he directly denied, “Who dares to chase me?”

He quickly walked to the side of the rock, raised his head slightly, and pretended to be relaxed: “But you, little junior brother, why are you blowing the cold wind at the door?”

Xie Heng shook his head, and could only smile bitterly.

He was naturally worried about Xie Ziyou.

The youth’s memories were only left in the endless grass, the seven colored river meandering in the distance, the lush grass was filled with snow-white flowers that he couldn’t name, the fragrance of the flowers was sweet and alluring.

After that, he seemed to have had a very long dream.

In the dream, he had married his beloved You You. Every night was sweet, and at the most dangerous moment, he was saved by her and was able to escape.

But when Xie Heng woke up, he was lying on the vast plains, long out of the range of the mystic realm. There were only clusters of brown and red shrubs scattered all around him, the branches and leaves were dense, with sharp little thorns sticking out of them.

There was no sign of the person he cared about the most.

Xie Heng looked around blankly, and stayed in the same place for a long time. Later, the people of Xuan Ling Sect arrived one after another, and surrounded him, asking him about his well-being.

As they bandaged the knife wound on Xie Heng’s waist, they beat their chests and stamped their feet, blaming themselves for not doing a good job, causing their youngest junior brother to be injured. Their words were filled with frustration, making Xie Heng not know whether to laugh or cry.

He also asked those people about Xie Ziyou, but he didn’t get the answer he wanted.

The people of Xuan Ling Sect knew how valuable the young man in front of them was, and they didn’t dare to let the injured Xie Heng go to search for him. Therefore, they used all their skills and tried to persuade him. Some people even hugged Xie Heng’s thigh and wailed. There was only one thought in their minds: We’ll go and find him.

Xie Heng couldn’t dissuade them, and could only agree.

When he returned to the sect, his heart was hanging in the air, and he didn’t even have the interest to practice the sword. Xie Ziyou’s shadow lingered in his mind, and his food and tea were not fragrant. His heart almost flew out of the sky.

Seeing Xie Heng’s haunted expression, Pei Yunyin immediately understood.

He raised his eyebrows, and said with a smile, “Yo, are you worried about your little lover again?”

Xie Heng’s face was slightly red, and he smiled bitterly, “Shixiong, don’t talk nonsense.”

As he said this, the youth jumped down from the bluestone, his brocade clothes fluttering in the wind, and the hair in front of his forehead was blown away by the breeze, revealing his refined and handsome face.

“Don’t worry, most likely his family took him back, nothing bad will happen to him.” Pei Yunyin comforted him, and then teased, “But my suggestion, shouldn’t little shidi carefully consider it?”

After walking out of the forest and experiencing so many things, Xie Heng had long forgotten about Pei Yunyin’s rotten idea.

He was slightly surprised, and asked in confusion, “What suggestion?”

Pei Yunyin smiled, “Snatching the marriage, how about it?”

The light and clear voice entered Xie Heng’s ears, like a great bell, instantly causing his ears to buzz.

Xie Heng blinked his eyes sluggishly, and said in disbelief, “Snatching … … the marriage?”

“You see, it’s not a good idea for you to watch the sunset alone.” Pei Yunyin winked, and reminded, “I see that your little lover also has feelings for you. Rather than worry about him being snatched away by others, it’s better for us to strike first and gain the upper hand … …”

Before he could finish, a clear whistle suddenly came from afar.

Someone shouted, “Pei Yunyin, he’s over there!”

At the same time, the sound of chaotic footsteps came from the mountain road, imposing and imposing.

Like an army of thousands of horses, they arrived in front of Xie Heng’s residence in the blink of an eye, and a cloud of dust rose behind them.

Pei Yunyin’s expression changed, and he hastily pulled the corner of Xie Heng’s clothes to block in front of him, and raised his feet to run towards the back of the house.

While running away, he did not forget to remind, “Little junior brother, you have never seen me before, remember!”

Xie Heng did not know whether to laugh or cry, and could only nod his head.

But the person who came had sharp eyes, and was able to detect Pei Yunyin’s movements from afar.

Before Xie Heng could open his mouth, his indomitable second senior brother leaped out of the crowd, his strong body as nimble as a crane, and with a few leaps in the air, he flipped over the bluestone in front of Xie Heng’s courtyard.

In an instant, the wind and clouds changed color, and the earth shook and the mountains shook. Pei Yunyin’s vision darkened, and it was as if a towering mountain had fallen in front of him, and its shadow fell, completely blocking him.

The young man’s heart skipped a beat and he forced a smile.

In front of him, the sturdy fat man’s eyes narrowed, and he gave a fake smile, but not a smile. His eyes were cold, and it was frightening.

“Pei, Yun, Yin,” Second senior brother sneered, and said word by word, “Where do you want to go?”
