Senior brother, stop it, you are the villain!

April 22nd, the weather was sunny and breezy. The sun was shining brightly and there were no clouds in the sky.

In fact, there was supposed to be a light rain today, but Xiao Ruoyao went over and dispersed the dark clouds in advance. Although the light rain will not affect the wedding too much, Xiao Ruoyao still does not want such flaws to exist.

This is the willfulness of the monks in the Tribulation Realm.

Early in the morning, the City Lord's Mansion became busy. Hundreds of chefs were busy cooking in the makeshift kitchen, while hundreds of various spiritual beasts were lined up to be slaughtered at the door. After they die, they will be sent to the kitchen, then dismembered, processed into plates of delicacies, and finally carried out by a beautifully dressed maid to the banquet hall in the front hall.

At this time, thousands of tables had been set up in the banquet hall. Guests from all over the world sat down and chatted and laughed with acquaintances. From time to time, we take a few bites of food and drink a sip of wine, and the guests and hosts enjoy themselves happily.

If there are knowledgeable people here, they will find that many of the guests sitting in the banquet hall have very high status in various parts of the upper domain. Sitting here are the Holy Lord, Son and Saint of a certain holy land, and sitting over there are the head and elders of a certain sect, as well as many patriarchs of big families, city lords of big cities, etc. The seniors are all virtuous, and the young talents are all gathered together. Just from the size of the guests, one can see Wuling City's rising reputation.

In order to entertain these people well, everyone in Wuling City tried their best and was so busy that they almost didn't touch the ground. Many officials who had made all the changes in the city hall were dragged in to receive guests from all parties or direct their subordinates to work. Although it was very busy, it was still orderly, and at least there were no major mistakes.

In Lin Huang'er's room in the back hall, it was also a busy scene.

Lin Huanger put on a red wedding dress with a fiery phoenix embroidered on it. This not only implies the auspiciousness of the dragon and phoenix, but also shows its identity as a phoenix. She wears her hair in a bun and a phoenix crown studded with pearls and jade. Wearing a red jade bracelet on her wrist and red embroidered shoes on her feet, paired with her blazing red hair, she looked like she had just been fished out of a red dye vat.

Feng Lingxue, Luo Qiu Shuang and Bai Shuang Hua were the ones who put on Lin Huang'er's clothes and jewelry. Looking at Lin Huang'er, who was dressed in extremely dazzling and beautiful clothes, they couldn't help but think of the scene when Lin Xiaoran got married seventeen years ago.

Lin Xiaoran was equally dazzling at that time. Feng Lingxue and others looked at Lin Xiaoran, who was the protagonist, and couldn't help but feel envious in their hearts.

Which girl doesn’t want to wear nice clothes and marry the person she likes the most?

But now, Lin Xiaoran's sons are all married, but their own love lives are still blank. While I was envious, I couldn't help but feel a little empty.

The only person in the room who behaved almost the same as usual was probably Liu Xuanxuan. This little lolita, who was only eleven or twelve years old, wandered around the room, looking at this and that, and from time to time she would run up to Lin Huanger, looking at her curiously with her big cute eyes. Lin Huang'er was dressed like this and finally said: "Sister Huang'er, isn't that thing you are wearing on your head heavy?"

Lin Huanger held Liu Xuanxuan on her lap with a smile and teased: "Xuanxuan, do you want to wear it?"

After Liu Xuanxuan hesitated for a moment, she shook her head: "No!"

"Why?" Lin Huanger asked curiously.

Liu Xuanxuan flattened her mouth and said in a sullen voice: "I heard from my mother that if you wear something like this, you will leave with someone else. Xuanxuan can't let go of her mother, nor can she let go of her father. She doesn't want to go with others."

Speaking of this, Liu Xuanxuan took Lin Huang'er's hand and said aggrievedly: "Sister Huang'er, do you want to leave here too?"

Lin Huanger and others looked at each other and laughed in unison.

Lin Huang'er pinched Liu Xuanxuan's nose and said with a smile: "I'm here and I'm not going anywhere. I will be here in the future, so Xuanxuan doesn't have to worry about not being able to find me in the future."

Luo Qiu Shuang on the side couldn't help laughing and said: "Junior sister grew up in the City Lord's Mansion. When she grew up, she married her junior brother and still lived in the City Lord's Mansion. If it had been anyone else, I'm afraid it would have really happened. Since then I have left home.”

Bai Shuanghua heard this and murmured in a low voice: "Why does it sound like my junior sister is a bit like a child bride?"

Luo Qiu Shuang heard this and rolled her eyes: "You are just telling the truth!"

Lin Huanger: "..."

Feng Lingxue looked at the joyous scene in front of her, feeling a little irritable for no reason. She quietly walked out of the room, looked up at the horizon, and was lost in thought.

"Eh? Xue'er, why are you here? Why don't you say a few words to your junior sisters?"

A voice suddenly came. Feng Lingxue quickly looked around and saw that the person coming was none other than Xiao Ruoyao, the master of Xiaoyao Hall.

Feng Lingxue quickly saluted Xiao Ruoyao, and Xiao Ruoyao waved her hand to express her displeasure. She looked at the unhappy Feng Lingxue and had some guesses in her mind. Then she held Feng Lingxue's little hand and said softly: "Is Xue'er worried?"

Feng Lingxue pursed her lips, then nodded slowly.

Xiao Ruoyao gently stroked Feng Lingxue's head and said with emotion: "I remember the first time I saw you, you were still a thirteen-year-old little girl. I didn't expect that after so many years, the little girl at that time has now become a girl. Tianjiao. Maybe in time, your achievements will be higher than mine."

Feng Lingxue said with some embarrassment: "You...you are too flattering..."

Xiao Ruoyao smiled and shook her head: "I am speaking from my heart. Your talent is the only one I have ever seen in my life. In addition, you have found your own way of swordsmanship at a young age. Your future achievements are limitless. Although you are alive in this world, you should not be proud. Be complacent, but don’t belittle yourself.”

After Feng Lingxue was silent for a while, she suddenly said: "But... I always feel that the higher the cultivation level, the lonelier I feel. It's like... it's like... it's like everyone will leave me in the end. Grandma Grandma , do you think there will come a time when the disciple is really alone?"

Seeing Feng Lingxue worrying about gains and losses, Xiao Ruoyao didn't know how to answer for a while. After thinking for a while, she said: "But Xue'er, have you ever thought that whether the people around you will eventually leave you or stay by your side has nothing to do with your cultivation level?"

Feng Lingxue blinked and looked at Xiao Ruoyao with a puzzled expression.

"Birth, old age, illness and death are unavoidable in life. Although monks like us can gain a long life through practice, we still cannot escape death. But when someone dies, there is life. The cycle of life, death and death repeats itself. When someone leaves, there is life. Someone will come. In life, it is inevitable to experience life, separation, and death, but it is also inevitable to experience greetings and farewells. Xueer, the reason why you are confused is because you only see what you have, but you never thought that you could. Fight for it." Xiao Ruoyao said with a smile.

Feng Lingxue couldn't help but fall into silence.

Speaking of which, the reason why she felt confused today was because the junior brother and junior sister she had watched grow up were getting married. In the future, they will have their own lives, and as their senior sister, I will inevitably be alienated by this. On the one hand, she was happy for her junior brother and junior sister, but on the other hand, she was terrified. Because she remembered her childhood, when she lost her brother, her only relative, and the huge feeling of panic that she would never have any relatives again.

She was afraid of being alone, always had been.

Feng Shao gave her a home, but Feng Shao already had his own wife and family; his junior brother and junior sister were like her biological brothers and sisters, but they would eventually leave her one day. Perhaps one day in the future, everyone she cherishes today will leave her one by one. At that time, even though she is invincible in the world, how can she deal with the loneliness in her heart?

In fact, Feng Lingxue's thoughts are widespread among monks. The reason why monks develop inner demons is because immortality itself is a double-edged sword. Loneliness is the main theme of the road, and no one can avoid it. Xiao Ruoyao saw Feng Lingxue's knot in her heart, so she spoke to enlighten her.

But whether she can think about it or not depends on her. No inner demon can disappear by relying on other people's enlightenment. Only your own will can defeat inner demons.

Speaking of this, Xiao Ruoyao took Feng Lingxue's little hand and said with a smile: "Let's not talk about this for now. Today is a happy day for your junior brother and junior sister. Come over and chat with your master and grandma!"

Feng Lingxue followed Xiao Ruoyao, looking at this great master of the Tribulation Realm whose years had barely left any traces on her body, she finally had some insights in her heart.

Perhaps, I should try to put more energy into other things...
