Chapter 430
"Come on you."
Cui Yuankui raised his hand and pressed Zhong Xian's head, rubbing it randomly twice: "How old are you? You are no different from that naked kid in front of me. If you are holding us back, it's not your fault. You should go play in the water with my little sister."
Zhong Xian choked and angrily pushed Cui Yuankui's hand away: "You are the naked child, don't touch my head."
The existence of Qiuluo City and the conservative faction of Songshan School complement each other.
The more Cui Yuankui's faction gained the upper hand in the Songshan faction, the more prosperous Qiuluo City became.
Now that someone dares to openly attack Qiuluo City, it can only mean that Cui Yuankui's faction's position in the Immortal Sect has been shaken.
Zhong Xian is a mortal and cannot provide much help in the struggle within the immortal sect. He can only try to reduce the reasons for others to target Qiu Luocheng and ease Cui Yuankui's burden.
"How sure are you about the situation in the shelter?" Zhong Xian glanced sideways.
Cui Yuankui crossed his legs, his white eyes smiling as he watched Yu Xi crawl out from among the crowded mermaids. "I plan to add another layer of barrier at each location. With the barrier's protection, even if attacked, the safety of those inside can be guaranteed."
As they were talking, Yu Xi came back covered in sparkles. Qing Pei helped her stop the other mermaids and took them to prepare a fish feast.
As soon as Zhong Xian saw Yu Xi, he immediately narrowed his eyes and clapped his hands vigorously, and said to Cui Yuankui with a bit of boasting:
"Xiao Xi'er is so beautiful! She has more pearls on her body than me. See, I said that mermaid friends like Xiao Xi'er more!"
Yu Xi clenched his fist dangerously, then quickly smiled brilliantly and placed a large, colorful shell on his head in Zhong Xian's hand.
"Brother is in a bad mood, this is for him."
Zhong Xian was stunned for a moment, then saw Yu Xi holding up her pearl-studded tail, tilting her head back, and looking at him with her clear fox eyes like little suns, saying:
"Give me all the pretty things. Will that make me feel better?"
Zhong Xian's blood tank was empty, and the hand holding the shell almost lost control of the strength and crushed the shell.
He hugged Yu Xi tightly and gave her a hundred or eighty kisses on the head. The kisses almost drowned Cui Yuan who was standing next to him.
He is in a super good mood!!!
Yu Xi raised the corner of her lips cunningly and said aggrievedly: "Then brother, please don't abandon me next time..."
"I was wrong, I was wrong. I won't do it again. Next time if the mermaids come over again, I'll help Xiao Xier!"
Yu Xi was satisfied and patted Zhong Xian on the back.
Cui Yuankui, who witnessed the whole process, glanced at Zhong Xian with disdain, clicked his tongue twice, and couldn't bear to watch.
What a loser! My little sister has me in her clutches!
Who would have thought that Yu Xi also gave him a shell.
"Where's Brother Yuankui?"
Yu Xi wagged her tail and said, "Brother Yuan Kui, you won't ignore me next time, right?"
Cui Yuankui pressed his chest, coughed lightly and said:
"Of course not. Next time I'll help my little sister."
My little sister is so amazing that she can even control him!
The whole fish feast prepared by the mermaids was soon served.
Although it is a fish feast, not all mermaids like to eat fish. Although they have dangerous sharp teeth, some mermaids prefer to eat fruits.
Therefore, among the mermaids playing by the lake, some placed various large fruit plates, and some placed various kinds of fish.
A huge grilled fish, about five or six meters long, which was caught from somewhere, was placed in front of Yu Xi, and the aroma filled the air.
Yu Xi sat between Zhong Xian and Cui Yuankui and found that the fish's eyeballs were bigger than her head. Her hand holding the chopsticks trembled slightly and she didn't know where to start.
Qing Pei said excitedly, "Sister, eat quickly. Only the most popular friend can get the biggest fish. I am the most popular friend today! Brother Wen Yu doesn't even have one!"
As they were talking, all the mermaids waved enthusiastically to Yu Xi, expressing their love for her directly.
Seeing this, Yu Xi quickly responded and waved at them twice, then took a deep breath and started to eat the fish in big mouthfuls.
This is the kindness of the mermaids!
She eats!
Finish eating!
During this time, Qingpei and the other two also helped her eat. Qingpei really liked eating fish. After Yu Xi had taken a few bites, he had already finished the entire fish tail. He didn't even need to pick out the bones. He just chewed it twice and swallowed it. He has very good teeth.
The mermaids will sing when they are in a good mood. Their voices are like the best musical instruments. The rich and beautiful tones echo among the lakes, following the rhythm of joy. Even the rolling reflection of the bright moon is dancing in the lake.
So this is a mermaid.
Yu Xi had learned about the habits of mermaids from books, but what he saw in the books was completely different from the feeling he had when he actually encountered them.
After eating and drinking, everyone rested in a bamboo house by the lake at night.
Although he was resting, Zhong Xian had not forgotten that he still had official business to deal with, so he planned to go back first.
Cui Yuankui stopped him, asked him to have a good rest, and flew back to the study to get the documents he wanted.
Qingpei went underwater to find his pillow, planning to sleep with them tonight.
Yu Xi and Zhong Xian were suddenly left with nothing to do. Zhong Xian had been very busy recently and felt a little uncomfortable with nothing to do. He simply picked up Yu Xi and sat under the tree next to the bamboo house, looking up at the stars.
But compared to Xingxing, Zhong Xian's attention was more on Yu Xi.
He could see tiny stars reflected in Yu Xi's dark pupils, so clear that even the clearest water could not produce such beautiful colors.
Suddenly, without thinking anything, he asked:
"Aren't you curious about what Xu Wencen meant by those words? A pure ghost body, that sounds terrible, doesn't it?"
Yu Xi moved her eyes, looked back at him, and quickly shook her head.
"Brother is brother," she said.
No matter what Zhong Xian looks like, he is still Zhong Xian, and he is her brother.
Zhong Xian was speechless, with an emotion in his eyes that he couldn't even describe. He raised his hand and rubbed Yu Xi's head.
"Xiao Xi'er, where on earth did you come from?"
Zhong Xian laughed and said, "I really feel that you are my future sister now. You want to see what I looked like before, so come to find me."
At first, he just thought Yu Xi was cute and homeless, so he wanted to take her in. However, after just a few days of getting along, he felt like they had been together for a long time.
Yu Xi didn't reply.
How could she tell Zhong Xian that he just collapsed in front of her, lifeless, and it seemed that he would never wake up again.
If there was no Huixin Secret Realm, she didn't dare to think about what would happen to her.
Zhong Xian didn't want Yu Xi to answer. He quickly raised his head, looked at the sky and said:
"When I was little, my village was hit by a flood. My parents were good swimmers and saved many people. In the end, they ran out of energy and never came up again. They are well-known for being kind people in the surrounding area. Even though I always absorb some unclean things into my body, they never hurt them."
Therefore, the statement that he killed his parents is completely false.
But there are always people who firmly believe it.
"The so-called pure ghost body is simply easy to be coveted by ghosts and monsters. It is a good seedling suitable for ghost cultivation. However, people with this physique are very likely to fall into the devil. After all, most evil ghosts in this world have deep obsessions."
Cui Yuankui came back at this time, holding a pile of documents in his hands. Hearing Zhong Xian telling Yu Xi about this, he couldn't help but say:
"But I'm not worried about Brother Wen Yu. He's so kind and gentle that even ghosts and monsters can't bear to hurt him."
