With cold eyes, Fang Tianluo looked at the woman who was chasing after him. “What are you doing here?”
“Tianluo! Are you alright? It’s great that you’re alright!” Xiao Lingling tried her best to hold back her tears and excitedly stepped forward.
Fang Tianluo took a few steps back and looked at her defensively. “What do you want to say?”
Xiao Lingling was stimulated by his actions, and her eyes widened. “What do you mean? I know it was my fault, but I regret it, and I’ve repented. Did Li Huairou say something to you? Don’t listen to her nonsense! She did it on purpose! It was me! I was the one who rescued you! Later, I was drugged by Li Huairou, and she took you away. After waking up, I looked for you everywhere. I knew that your injury needed Lingzhu grass. I went to the extreme north and found some, but I was robbed by that slut, Li Huairou. She also ruined my face! Tianluo, what I said is true—you have to believe me!”
Fang Tianluo smiled. “Until now, you’re still lying to me. Do you think I’ll believe it? Huairou never said a word to me from the beginning to the end! Because you are not worthy!”
Xiao Lingling’s eyes turned red. “What did you say?!” Her whole face also turned red, and her internal force roamed all over her body—she was about to lose control.
Naturally, Fang Tianluo noticed it, and he continued, “To tell you the truth, I know your purpose for approaching me: except for the secret book, it was also because of the treasure map. It’s true that the second half of the secret book contains the secret of the treasure map. I have already guessed it and found the treasure map.”
Xiao Lingling stepped forward excitedly. “Where is the treasure map?”
“I destroyed it!” Fang Tianluo smiled.
Xiao Lingling roared, “Are you crazy? No, you must be lying to me! Tianluo, I beg you, for the sake of our relationship, give me the treasure map. One person alone is weak, so why don’t we cooperate! After finding the treasure, we’ll divide it fifty-fifty. Is that okay?”
Fang Tianluo laughed, as if he had heard a joke. “Xiao Lingling, you really don’t know me.”
“What do you mean?” Xiao Lingling looked at him.
“If you knew me, you wouldn’t have said such a thing. I never want anything that doesn’t belong to me; I even disdain it. I’ve destroyed the treasure map. You’re right about one thing—recalling our past relationship, I will not take action against you. You should behave in the future! Or else!” After speaking, Fang Tianluo violently waved his right hand, the palm of his hand emitting red flames. He slashed towards a century-old tree beside the road, a tree which needed five or six people holding hands to be able to surround it. The old tree split from the middle.
Xiao Lingling’s eyes grew hot. Were the martial arts in the secret book so magical?
“From now on, I will be at odds with the Baiyue Sect. Wherever I am, if I see a Baiyue Sect disciple, I will execute them. That includes you!” Fang Tianluo said word for word, staring at Xiao Lingling.
“You can’t go!” Xiao Lingling knew that, no matter what happened, she couldn’t let Fang Tianluo leave just like this. Whether it was her, her brother, or the Baiyue Sect, all of them needed Fang Tianluo. “You can ignore our relationship, but will you ignore your flesh and blood in my womb?”
Fang Tianluo looked at her blankly.
Xiao Lingling took a step forward, touched her lower abdomen, and said proudly, “I have your child. The night before we entered Qilin Mountain.”
Fang Tianluo laughed, “Xiao Lingling, you really can tell a pack of lies! I’ve asked the doctor who took your pulse—you’re not pregnant!”
Xiao Lingling’s face changed greatly. She hadn’t known that Fang Tianluo would be so on guard toward her. “You!”
Fang Tianluo retracted his smile. He hadn’t asked those doctors; he’d just wanted to test Xiao Lingling, but he didn’t expect that… hehe, in order to achieve her goals, this woman really could do anything!
Fang Tianluo turned around and left without mercy.
Xiao Lingling gritted her teeth and wanted to catch up. Fang Tianluo noticed and waved his palm backwards, and his palm wind hit Xiao Lingling. Xiao Lingling was knocked out, fell to the ground, and vomited blood! “Fang Tianluo, you’re so ruthless! Do you really not miss our former relationship at all? Let’s be honest with the love of fish and water. Have you forgotten all this?”
[The original meaning of this phrase is used to describe the relationship between two people, just like the naturalness of fish in the water. This refers to the love between men and women]
Fang Tianluo didn’t want to remember the past at all. How sweet the past was, was how much he felt disgusted now.
Xiao Lingling wanted to catch up, but she was powerless and could only watch Fang Tianluo disappear from her sight. She was trembling with anger, and suddenly her face hurt so badly, so she covered her face and cried on the ground until she was discovered by her subordinates, who brought her back and gave her the medicine prescribed by the doctor to temporarily relieve the pain.
But somehow, the medicine had no effect. Instead, it hurt more.
Not only was it painful, but it was also extremely itchy. The itchy Xiao Lingling couldn’t help scratching her face—as a result, her face was scratched bloody!
Xiao Tianze got the news and came over to knock her out.
“Sect master!”
“No need for persuasion anymore. Go and fetch the golden ring snake. Now, we can only use poison to fight poison.” It wasn’t like Xiao Tianze didn’t love his sister, but this was the only way. Right now, the important thing was to save her life.
The witch doctor took the golden ring snake, peeled its skin and extracted the gallbladder, and then stuffed the snake gallbladder and meat into Xiao Lingling’s mouth.
Suddenly, black qi appeared on Xiao Lingling’s body. The black qi roamed over Xiao Lingling’s whole body, finally stopping on Xiao Lingling’s face.
Xiao Lingling’s face was healed, but the right half of her face was shrouded in black. Xiao Lingling looked at herself in the mirror and smashed the mirror like she was crazy.
Xiao Tianze brought a special mask over. Stepping on the debris on the ground, he put it on Xiao Lingling, then took another mirror and let Xiao Lingling look in it.
Xiao Lingling looked at herself in the mirror. The right half of her face had been replaced by a gold mask with delicate patterns, and the exposed left half of her face was still beautiful. To the contrary, the golden mask added a little charm.
Xiao Lingling couldn’t help touching the mask, and then her eyes went cold. So what? The mask was only covering an ugly face.
Li Huairou, I will not stop until one of us is dead!
“Lingling, you are the saintess of the Baiyue Sect—don’t forget your responsibility!” Xiao Tianze put his hands on Xiao Lingling’s shoulders. “I don’t have much time anymore, and your martial arts and scheming are not enough to assume the position of the master of the sect. After I die, the Baiyue Sect can only choose to hide. But if you don’t work hard, where will the future of the Baiyue Sect be?”
Xiao Lingling’s restless heart instantly calmed down. That was right. The most important thing now was not Li Huairou, but the Baiyue Sect.
“Ge, it’s all because I’m useless!” Xiao Lingling said with red eyes.
“I don’t blame you. I only blame the god of destiny for making fools of people.” Xiao Tianze didn’t know what to say. It had all been arranged, but there had been a change, and their success fell short. “Hurry down the mountain, go to Fang Tianluo, and use all your methods—be they bitter or beautiful—and take advantage of your beautiful face and your tender body. If necessary, use medicine to save him. If you can have a child, it will be even better! If necessary, you can kill me in front of him to prove your heart.”
“Ge!” Xiao Lingling exclaimed in shock.
“Everything is for the future of the Baiyue Sect! Don’t forget our responsibilities!” Xiao Tianze said indifferently.
“Ge, I understand. Don’t worry! I’ll set off now,” Xiao Lingling said.
“Okay! Remember—no matter what happens to the Baiyue Sect, don’t come back! I’m waiting for the bloodline of the Xiao family, the day that the Baiyue Sect will be honored!” Xiao Tianze said seriously.
“I understand, ge!” Xiao Lingling also knew that, after this parting, brother and sister would never meet again in this life.
But she endured the sadness and left without looking back.
She knew where Fang Tianluo would go. Now that he had accomplished his feats, he naturally wanted to avenge his parents. She went ahead and waited for the rabbit!
This was the only hope of the Xiao family; she must not miss it! Xiao Lingling touched the “infatuation” in her arms. When necessary, “infatuation” was all her hope! She must be successful!
Not long after, there was a rumor that the leader of the Baiyue Sect had gotten into trouble when he was practicing and was seriously injured. The Right Guardian betrayed the sect and wanted to kill the Baiyue Sect master to replace him. The result was a lose-lose.
Li Huaike released the pigeons. “I wonder how Brother Tianluo is!”
Li Huairou rolled her eyes at him. “Didn’t he just ask someone to send a silver note back? Ge, how come you miss him so much every day? I think you like him!”
Li Huaike widened his eyes and tapped Li Huairou’s head. “What nonsense are you talking about in front of Xiao-Hu!”
Xiao-Hu next to him saw his father beating his aunt, and he giggled in his mother’s arms.
Li Huairou pinched his fat chin. “Little man, are you so happy to see your aunt be beaten? Huh?”
Xiao-Hu giggled even more happily, and he opened his hands and fluttered out, wanting Li Huairou to hug him.
Li Huairou immediately ran away. “Don’t, I won’t hold you. Last time, you pooped on me, and I didn’t even find you to settle the account!” Human cubs without diapers were too dangerous. She really didn’t want to repeat such a painful experience a second time.
When Xiao-Hu saw that his aunt wasn’t going to hug him, he began to cry.
Li Huaike was so distressed that he hugged him. “Oh, don’t cry, Xiao-Hu, your aunt is bad—she doesn’t hug you. Daddy will hug you!”
Xiao-Hu liked his aunt but didn’t like his daddy, so he cried.
Li Huairou rolled her eyes, resigned to taking Xiao-Hu over from Li Huaike’s hands. “Why do you look for me! Do I have sugar on my body? Really, where are the diapers? Quickly give it to him!”
As soon as the Xiao-Hu got into his aunt’s arms, he immediately smiled brightly. His little hands wanted to wrap his arms around his aunt’s neck, but his hands were too short to hook around it, so he could only obediently lean on his aunt’s shoulders.
Seeing this, Li Huaike felt heartache. He obviously paid a lot of attention—playing with him, changing diapers, giving him a bath, etc. Why did Xiao-Hu like Huairou better than him!
Liu Sike said with a smile, “I just changed it and he urinated, so don’t worry!”
Li Huairou felt a rush of heat on her body before she could finish her sentence. Looking down, the Xiao-Hu innocently blinked his big eyes, stupidly looking at Li Huairou.
“You’re a urinal!”
Liu Sike took Xiao- Hu over, dumbfounded. “Go change your clothes.”
Xiao-Hu left his aunt and started crying again.
Li Huairou reluctantly touched his fat chin and pulled the little man back. “You really defeated me. You truly are my ancestor! Forget it—if it’s dirty, it’s dirty! Sister-in-law, you’ll have to pay for my clothes. Ah!” Xiao-Hu stopped crying immediately and grinned on Li Huairou’s shoulder.
“Okay, I’ll give you a new dress.” Liu Sike didn’t understand either. It was clear that Huairou didn’t play with Xiao-Hu very often. Why did he like Huairou so much!
