After entrusting Dugu Yan to Ye Qingxian in Heaven Water City, Dugu Bo departed alone, not knowing where he was going.
Perhaps he was going to show off in front of some old acquaintances? Who knows!
Ye Qingxian walked towards the backyard, passing through the long corridor, her clothes fluttering like snow and clouds.
"Aunt Ye!"
Suddenly, a shout came.
Ye Qingxian turned her head and saw a snowball suddenly hit her.
Huh?!
Ye Qingxian's beautiful eyes widened instantly! This little monkey, how dare he! "Mom, let's flatten him together!"
Ye Lingling and Dugu Yan, who had been beaten by Lin Xiao until they were running away with their heads in their hands, seized the opportunity and quickly invited Ye Qingxian to join the battlefield!
Ye Qingxian sneered.
She was a mature and steady woman like an eagle, and only children liked to play snowball fights!
Suddenly, several snowballs flew over!
Accurately hitting her.
Ye Qingxian couldn't bear it any longer.
"Lingling, watch how mother helps you teach him a lesson!"
She picked up a snowball and threw it at Lin Xiao.
"Mom! You hit him, you hit him!"
"Aunt Ye is so amazing!"
Ye Lingling and Dugu Yan exclaimed.
What's so admirable about that? Anyone could do it!
Ye Qingxian chuckled, a hint of a smile on her lips, "You two should learn from me, see how I throw snowballs! It has to be steady and accurate!"
...
In the evening.
Ye Lingling and Dugu Yan were squeezed together in bed.
Two pairs of fair little feet were touching each other.
"Yan Yan, don't you think we've become prettier after taking the Immortal Herb? I feel like your skin is so much better, without any flaws!"
"You just noticed? Not only is my skin much better, but my figure has also changed a bit."
"Ah? Why hasn't mine changed! Yan Yan, let me touch yours."
"Ah! You're going to die!"
"Waa, it's not fair! Why can you still promote development, Yan Yan?"
"Alright! Don't you feel a faint floral fragrance on your body?"
"Oh, let me smell, it's true!"
The joy after the evolution of their Martial Souls.
Made the two little girls unable to sleep at night, tossing and turning until they fell asleep in the middle of the night.
The next day, they unsurprisingly overslept.
...
Early morning.
Lin Xiao got up early, opened the window, and saw light snow falling outside.
Red tiles, white walls, and green bricks covered with snow.
He sorted the letters Shui Binger had sent over the past few days by date.
Then, he read them one by one.
The envelopes carried a faint fragrance, delicate and beautiful.
The graceful handwriting was pleasing to the eye.
It seemed that he could see a gentle and lovely face between the lines, feel the heart of a sentimental girl, and...
Boundless longing.
As the saying goes, 'White hair feels new, while an old acquaintance feels like home.'
Neighbors for more than a decade could still speak ill of each other; a chance encounter on the road might lead to a feeling of meeting someone late.
Lin Xiao subconsciously touched the Storage Soul Tool on the middle finger of his left hand, inside which was a brocade pouch and a considerable amount of Gold Soul Coins.
This was the "first pot of gold" in his life.
Well, from "living off a sugar mommy."
"Speaking of which, Shui Binger is also a noble lady, I wonder what her life at home is like?"
Shui Binger was different from Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling.
Both of them were the only child in their respective families, treated like little ancestors, without the complicated web of interests of a large family.
However, Shui Binger had a strong talent.
This was her greatest bargaining chip.
Her days should be good, right?
Lin Xiao looked at the last letter. Unlike the previous letters recounting the daily life of a little girl, the emotion in this last letter was particularly strong.
The girl's earnest anticipation rushed towards him through the paper.
"Lin Xiao, do you remember our promise?"
Promise...
Of course, Lin Xiao remembered.
It seemed that all the major junior academies were already on vacation?
Even the Advanced Soul Master Academy that Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling attended was about to have a holiday.
So... were they going to meet? Lin Xiao put all the letters back into the envelope, sorted them, and put them in a small box, then stored them in the Storage Soul Tool.
He didn't plan to write back.
A thousand words on paper were not as good as meeting in person, to give Shui Binger a surprise.
Stretching, Lin Xiao walked towards the main hall.
"Aunt Ye."
Passing by the corridor, he saw Ye Qingxian practicing the Eight Section Brocade.
She was wearing loose white practice clothes, but her graceful curves were still faintly visible. Her every move was different from Lin Xiao's unrestrainedness, but she also had her own elegant and agile demeanor.
Lin Xiao didn't hold back and taught Ye Qingxian both the Five Animal Frolics and the Eight Section Brocade.
Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling had also learned a little.
But the two girls seemed to find practicing martial arts a boring thing. Only Ye Qingxian silently persisted and gained something.
Ye Qingxian slowly finished her practice.
Fine beads of sweat appeared on her fair forehead, her complexion rosy, as beautiful as peach blossoms.
"Your Eight Section Brocade is really good."
"After practicing a whole set of punches, not only is the body comfortable, but also the Soul Power is loosened along the meridians. Long-term persistence can enhance physical fitness and improve talent."
"I have to force those two girls to practice later. They are half-hearted and don't understand the essence of it, so naturally they can't persist. It will be good after leading them into the door."
Ye Qingxian glanced at Lin Xiao.
She didn't ask him where he got the Eight Section Brocade and Five Animal Frolics from.
She wasn't such a bored woman.
"What is it? Is there something you need?"
Lin Xiao nodded, hesitated for a moment, and said, "I'm planning to go out for a while."
Living in the Ye Family for this period, Lin Xiao sometimes almost thought he was a member of the Ye Family.
To the point where he had to report even going out.
"Go out? Where to?"
Ye Qingxian's eyes narrowed slightly as she walked towards Lin Xiao.
"Heaven Water City, I guess."
"I'm going to the Shui Family to see a friend of mine."
Ye Qingxian frowned and said, "When are you going? Recently, Yan Yan and Lingling are going to hunt for their Third Soul Ring, Poison Douluo will definitely accompany them, won't it be a bit dangerous for you alone?"
"How about this, I'll find someone to escort you."
"But it's best to wait until Yan Yan and Lingling return from hunting their Soul Rings, then Poison Douluo senior can go with you, that would be safer. Yan Yan and Lingling can also go and get to know your friend..."
Lin Xiao chuckled, shook his head, and said, "I don't have any enemies, why make such a fuss? That's just being a spoiled brat."
"Yan Yan-jie and Lingling-jie don't know my friend, taking them all the way there might end up making both sides unhappy, I'll just go."
"It just so happens that by the time Yan Yan-jie and Lingling-jie return from hunting their Soul Rings, I'll almost be back."
Ye Qingxian nodded, and said without a doubt, "Then I'll have someone escort you."
Suddenly, her beautiful eyes narrowed playfully, and she smiled:
"Is that friend of yours a boyfriend or a girlfriend?"
Lin Xiao's face darkened.
"It's a normal friend!"
