Chapter 143 Several women meet
Under the gentle moonlight, a slender figure slowly appeared in his own courtyard. This person was Xiao Ling who had just returned from outside.
After Xiao Ling stepped slowly into the courtyard, he quietly released a trace of soul perception and keenly noticed that Xiao Yixian and Qing Lin were practicing attentively in their respective rooms.
Seeing this scene, Xiao Ling couldn't help but nodded slightly, his heart instantly filled with approval.
Xiao Ling knew that letting the two of them practice in peace at this moment was far more important than any disturbance, so he did not go forward to disturb them.
Xiao Ling thought silently in his heart: "No matter how strong your talent is, if you don't have the determination to persevere in cultivation, you can't become a truly strong person."
As he thought about it, Xiao Ling slowly withdrew his gaze, and then walked towards Zi Yan's room with steady steps.
Xiao Ling gently pushed open the door, only to see a faint purple halo filling the room. Zi Yan, who was lying on the bed, was gently enveloped by the light, looking mysterious and charming.
The light seemed to have life, gently beating, dreamy, and mysterious.
Seeing the changes in Zi Yan, Xiao Ling thought to himself: "It seems that the energy has accumulated to a critical point. It will probably not take long before she can transform into a cocoon and advance."
Xiao Ling's eyes were full of anticipation, as if he had already seen Zi Yan's strength greatly improved after her successful advancement.
Xiao Ling touched his chin, and suddenly an idea came to his mind: "When Zi Yan breaks through and becomes a sixth-level magic beast, she should be able to temporarily recover to her adult state. I really wonder what Zi Yan will look like when she becomes a queen. It's really exciting."
"But the recovery to adult state is only for a short period of time. Maybe Zi Yan can only recover to adult state after taking the Dragon Phoenix Origin Fruit."
Xiao Ling stood quietly beside the bed, staring at Zi Yan for a moment. After making sure that Zi Yan's condition was stable, he withdrew his gaze.
After looking back again, Xiao Ling tiptoed out of the room as if he had never entered.
After a while, Xiao Ling returned to his room, slowly took off his clothes, untied his belt, and lay on his side on the neat big bed.
The soft bed did not make Xiao Ling fall asleep immediately. He thought about the fact that his body was already sixteen years old.
On this quiet night, Xiao Ling's thoughts involuntarily drifted back to the memories of his previous life.
In his previous life, Xiao Ling was ordinary and mediocre. He always lost his way in the trivialities of life and wandered on the edge of his dreams. In the vast sea of people, he was like a tiny speck of dust, so ordinary that he was almost ignored by the whole world.
I have never experienced anything so fantastic, nor have I met such sincere companions.
Thinking of the regrets of his previous life and comparing them with the ups and downs he has experienced in this life, Xiao Ling's heart was filled with emotion.
Xiao Ling deeply understands that everything he has in this life is hard-earned, so he must cherish it doubly and protect the beauty he has now.
With memories of the past and expectations for the future, Xiao Ling's consciousness gradually became blurred and he slowly fell into a sweet dream.
……
The next day.
The first ray of sunlight in the morning shone through the window, softly and warmly onto Xiao Xun'er's elegantly decorated boudoir, just right reflecting on Xiao Xun'er's beautiful and charming profile.
Xiao Xun'er slowly woke up from her sleep, slowly opened her eyes, feeling the caress of the sun. After lazily resting on the bed for a while, she stretched her slim figure, then turned over and got out of bed, getting up to wash up.
Xiao Xun'er sat in front of the dressing table and gently soaked a towel. When the wet towel touched her delicate skin, she thought to herself, "I'll go see Senior Yao Chen later to see if he's really as reliable as Brother Xiao Ling said."
"By the way, I'll also get to know the Little Medical Fairy and Qing Lin, the Evil Poison Body and the Green Snake Three Flower Eyes that Brother Xiao Ling mentioned before. Even I haven't seen them in person yet, so this is a good opportunity to meet them. I don't know what kind of special people they are, but they shouldn't be too difficult to get along with."
Xiao Xun'er carefully put on her makeup, washed up briefly, tidied her clothes and hair in front of the mirror, and walked out of her room.
Before leaving, Xiao Xun'er saw her classmate Han Yue pruning flowers in the courtyard and said with a smile, "Good morning, Han Yue. You are still the same as usual, always getting up so early."
After hearing the voice, Han Yue stopped what she was doing, returned the gift, and asked curiously, "Xun'er, why are you going out so early?"
Xiao Xun'er replied: "I made an appointment with Brother Xiao Ling last night, so I naturally have to go there early. It would be bad if I were late."
Han Yue's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she thought to herself: Xiao Ling seems to be very busy recently, and it is always difficult to find him. I might as well take this opportunity to go with Xun'er.
So Han Yue suggested: "I haven't seen Xiao Ling for a long time, why don't I go with you."
Xiao Xun'er thought about it for a moment, then agreed and said, "Okay, let's set off without delay."
So Xiao Xun'er and Han Yue walked together, taking light steps, towards Xiao Ling's courtyard.
Along the way, birds sang happily, the fragrance of flowers drifted everywhere, and the breeze gently blew across the skirts of the two people, making them more lively and beautiful.
The sunlight sprinkled softly on the path in the courtyard, reflecting the light footsteps of the two people.
Xiao Xun'er and Han Yue walked side by side and slowly stepped into Xiao Ling's courtyard.
In the middle of the courtyard, there was a woman in a pure white dress, sitting quietly on a stone bench, holding an ancient medical book tightly in her hands, studying it with full concentration.
This person is none other than Little Medical Immortal.
The sunlight shines through the gaps in the leaves, sprinkling on the little medical fairy's body, as if it had covered her with a layer of golden gauze.
The Little Medical Fairy's long eyebrows were sometimes slightly frowned, as if she encountered a difficult mystery in the book, and sometimes slowly relaxed, as if she had understood the key in an instant.
Those bright eyes were focused and deep, as if the whole world was left with only the medical book in his hand.
Qinglin squatted in a corner of the courtyard, carefully taking care of the colorful flowers and plants.
Several pet snakes followed behind her. Qinglin gently stroked every green leaf and every flower while teasing the pet snakes behind her.
The petite body appears and disappears among the flowers, like an elf among the flowers.
There was a peaceful smile on Qinglin's innocent face, as if these flowers, plants and snake pets were her most precious treasures.
The footsteps of Xiao Xun'er and Han Yue broke the tranquility of the courtyard and attracted the attention of Xiao Yixian and Qing Lin.
The little medical fairy put down the medical book in her hand, stood up, and looked at the person who came with clear eyes, with a hint of doubt and curiosity in her eyes.
Qing Lin also stopped what he was doing and stood up, with a bit of timidity in his eyes. Xiao Xun'er was the first to speak with a smile: "How are you two? I'm Xiao Xun'er, and this is Han Yue."
Han Yue also nodded slightly, with a friendly smile on her face, and said: "It's our first meeting, I hope you can take care of me."
The Little Medical Fairy smiled warmly in response and said, "It turns out to be Miss Xiao Xun'er and Miss Han Yue. I have heard of your great names for a long time. It is such an honor to meet you today."
Qing Lin said timidly: "Welcome here."
Xiao Xun'er smiled gently and said, "I guess you two are Miss Xiao Yixian and Miss Qinglin. Brother Xiao Ling often talks about you in my ears."
The Little Medical Fairy was slightly startled, then responded: "Xiao Ling also often thinks of Miss Xun'er. I think you two have a very deep relationship as siblings."
While the two girls were talking, Han Yue looked around curiously and asked, "Ms. Qinglin, where is Xiao Ling? And why haven't we seen Ziyan?"
Qing Lin gently stroked the hair on his forehead and replied, "Master Xiao Ling is studying alchemy in the alchemy room, and Sister Zi Yan is practicing in the room. It is not convenient for her to come out at the critical moment."
Xiao Xun'er nodded slightly and said, "So that's how it is. Then let's wait for them in this courtyard."
Several people found a stone table in the courtyard and sat down. The Little Medical Fairy asked Qinglin to get some tea and snacks to entertain the guests.
Han Yue looked at the beautiful scenery around her and couldn't help but admire: "This courtyard is so exquisitely arranged, and it is elegant everywhere. I have come here to see it before. Although it is not messy, it is still quite different from now."
Xiao Xun'er smiled and responded, "Brother Xiao Ling has always been a thoughtful person. I'm sure every blade of grass and every tree in this courtyard has been carefully taken care of by him."
As they were talking, a breeze blew by, bringing with it the scent of flowers.
The Little Medical Fairy took a sip of tea and said, "Xiao Ling is also extremely obsessed with the art of alchemy and often stays in the alchemy room for a long time."
At this time, Qinglin came back with tea and snacks, and placed them carefully on the stone table.
Han Yue picked up a piece of dessert and tasted it. As she ate, she said, "This dessert tastes very good. I think it took a lot of thought to make it."
When Qinglin heard Han Yue's praise, her already rosy face became even happier. These snacks were made by Qinglin herself.
Qing Lin thought happily in his heart: "Since this sister likes it so much, Young Master Xiao Ling will surely like it too."
……
While the few people were talking, smoke was rising from the alchemy room in Xiao Ling's courtyard, and the rich fragrance of medicine filled the room like a layer of gauze.
Various rare medicinal materials are neatly and orderly placed on the shelves, which are dazzling and exude a unique aroma.
In the alchemy furnace, blazing flames rose vigorously and made whirring sounds, as if telling the mystery and wonder of alchemy.
Xiao Ling was concentrating on controlling the flame with a focused gaze. Judging from the changes in the shape of the flame, Xiao Ling's control over the flame had already reached perfection at this time.
Yao Chen was floating leisurely on the side, looking calm, and giving instructions from time to time. His words were full of rich experience and profound wisdom.
Suddenly, Xiao Ling frowned, and the flame in his hand slightly deformed. Obviously, something was happening.
As soon as Xiao Xun'er and Han Yue stepped into the quiet courtyard, the subtle sounds of their footsteps and the rustling of their sleeves were easily noticed by Xiao Ling.
Xiao Ling turned his head and looked at Yao Chen calmly, and said in a natural tone: "Old Yao, there is something I need to make clear to you. Xun'er came here this time, probably because she wanted to meet you."
Yao Chen stopped the gesture he was making, slowly turned his gaze towards Xiao Ling, and asked with a puzzled look on his face: "I am just a remnant soul, why does she want to see me?"
Xiao Ling's expression remained unchanged as he explained slowly and calmly, "Master Yao, when I met Xun'er yesterday, I told her about you. I guess she wanted to meet you out of curiosity."
As for the transaction mentioned with Xiao Xun'er, Xiao Ling did not intend to tell Yao Chen now.
Yao Chen suddenly realized, a faint smile appeared on his face, and he said: "So that's how it is. I guess this little girl is a little worried."
Xiao Ling smiled slightly and said, "Master Yao, Xun'er has a special identity. You have to be more careful when communicating with her."
Yao Chen nodded and said with a relaxed look: "Don't worry, I know what I'm doing and I won't make any mistakes."
"In that case, let's not keep them waiting too long."
Afterwards, Xiao Ling quickly and methodically packed up the alchemy tools. The medicine dust turned into a soft light and lightly drilled into the Bone Inflammation Ring.
Xiao Ling gently held the Bone Inflammation Ring in his hand, took a deep breath, and walked out of the alchemy room with brisk steps.
Xiao Ling walked out of the alchemy room, and the moment he raised his eyes, he saw the women in the courtyard.
Hearing the sound of steady footsteps, the people who were talking also looked over.
Then I saw Xiao Ling's tall figure walking slowly towards me with leisurely steps.
The sunlight shone on Xiao Ling, outlining a golden outline. His already extraordinary face looked even more handsome in the light and shadow, and his deep eyes revealed a hint of gentleness and calmness.
Xiao Ling smiled and greeted everyone in the courtyard with a gentle look: "Sorry to have kept you waiting for a long time. I think you all know each other now."
The voice was as gentle as jade, like a spring breeze blowing through everyone's hearts.
Xiao Xun'er's beautiful eyes moved, and she said with her red lips slightly parted, "Brother Xiao Ling, we are already familiar with each other, and we are having a good chat."
Xiao Ling smiled and nodded, his eyes swept over everyone one by one, and said, "That's great. I'm happy to see everyone getting along well."
When his sight fell on Han Yue, Xiao Ling's eyes flashed with joy, and he said, "Long time no see, Senior Sister Han Yue."
Han Yue's expression was a bit complicated, as if she was surprised but also complained a little. She pursed her lips and replied, "Xiao Ling, it's been a long time."
Seeing Han Yue like this, Xiao Ling felt a little guilty. He muttered to himself, "I have to find an opportunity to have a good exchange of feelings with my senior sister later."
