The Secret of the Goddess

Chapter 213 Still Care

Xue Yi and Xiao Qingruo stayed in Lingzhou temporarily and stayed at an inn not far from Buzhuang.

Zidie and Hongyue wanted to come and serve them, but Xiao Qingruo refused.

The news that the two returned to Lingzhou spread quickly. In the evening, people from the city lord's palace and some small and medium-sized local families in Lingzhou came to wait under the inn, wanting to see Xiao Qingruo, but not daring to disturb them.

In the eyes of others, Xiao Qingruo has always been a cold and aloof goddess, who is difficult to approach, difficult to talk to, and decisive in killing. Xuanyi Tower is destroyed at any time, which is very scary.

So even if you want to please, you don't dare to get too close.

Originally, the two of them didn't want to talk to them.

However, after thinking about it seriously, I felt that if the Shengwei Mansion wanted to rebuild, it was currently short of people, strength and money, so I was afraid that the City Lord's Mansion and various forces would have to provide some assistance.

So Xue Yi came forward and went downstairs to deal with everyone.

Although Xue Yi is only the commander of the guards, as a confidant of the eldest lady, his status is not low.

Coupled with his Dharma Realm strength, he is definitely the top among the best in a small place like Lingzhou, and he is already very respectable to everyone.

Each family and the City Lord's Mansion have expressed their willingness to provide free manpower and some resource help if the Shengwei Mansion wants to rebuild it.

…Naturally, those who come are those who want to build good relationships and invest in the future.

There are also many people who are unwilling to help, they just don’t show up.

The City Lord's Mansion also stated that the two cold iron mines were only managed on their behalf, and all profits were recorded in the accounts and would be returned to the Shengwei Mansion when the time came.

Considering the situation of a declining sect, it stands to reason that everyone should not be so flattering.

The reason is that Xiao Qingruo's talent is too incredible and the attitude of the royal family is at play.

…

After nightfall, Xue Yi sent away the representatives of various forces and returned upstairs.

"Ruo'er, it seems that rebuilding the clan is not too difficult. As long as we recruit more disciples, we can quickly restore prosperity." Xue Yi came to Xiao Qingruo's room.

Xiao Qingruo looked sad: "It is not difficult to rebuild a manor, but it is difficult to return to the past in terms of disciples. Even if we absorb another group of people, it is impossible to cultivate loyalty and belonging so quickly. That is what is needed It takes several generations to accumulate.”

Xue Yi smiled lightly when he heard this and said: "We have a long lifespan. At worst, we will live with him for several generations. By the way... Ruo'er, do you care about the clan so much? I always thought you didn't value this very much."

Xiao Qingruo breathed a sigh of relief: "I originally thought I didn't care very much, but when I saw the ruins of Shengwei Mansion, I couldn't help but play the slideshow in my mind. Although the master of the palace is suspicious of me, he still has a lot of feelings for me. The kindness of the third elder and the fourth elder also gave me good books, medicine, and various useful gifts. When I was young, I had no ability and relied on acting and deception. It was very difficult for me to survive. The kindness shown by the elders occasionally , I still miss it now when I think about it.”

After all, it is a memory of eighteen years of life, and it is impossible to remain indifferent.

Thinking that the third elder, fourth elder, palace master and others were all dead, she naturally couldn't feel relaxed.

Xue Yi could understand her mood, so he leaned on his chest and comforted her: "It's okay. The second elder and the first elder are still alive. Xu Lingtian and other young people are also still there. Everything can still turn around."

If there is no external interference, it is only a matter of time before Shengwei Mansion makes a comeback.

What they really have to worry about is the powerful enemy outside.

"Well, let's stay in Lingzhou to deal with it these days, and then kill people later." Xiao Qingruo nodded slightly.

kill.

Kill the saint!

In her eyes, it seems to be just a small thing, and she only takes time to do it after she is finished.

The culprits who caused the robbery of Shengwei Mansion were the barbarian saints, so what they wanted to do was naturally kill the barbarian masters.

In addition, the news of Xiao Qingruo's return will soon spread, and there may be other strong people coming to cause trouble, and they will also need to deal with it.

"Don't worry, take it step by step." Xue Yi said warmly, "Go to rest early."

"Um."

Xiao Qingruo nodded slightly.

Xue Yi stood up and prepared to go back to his room.

But Xiao Qingruo took his hand and said, "Let's sleep together. I don't want to hide it anymore. You are not my guard, but my husband. I want everyone to know."

Xue Yi smiled knowingly and felt her thoughts.

But he still refused: "It's about your reputation. It's better to wait until the right time to let people know. It's time for me to gain some fame, otherwise I won't be worthy of you."

"It's worthy, why not?" Xiao Qingruo frowned, a little dissatisfied.

"I mean in the eyes of others." Xue Yi said.

"Okay...then you just don't want to sleep with me?" The eldest lady pursed her lips, not happy.

Xue Yi looked at her cute look and asked with a smile: "What, Ruo'er needs it?"

"No, it's just...forget it, go away, you bastard!"

Xiao Qingruo wanted to explain, but found that he was short of words, so he raised his foot and kicked Xue Yi off the bed. He turned around, lay on the pillow and ignored others.

Xue Yi couldn't help but smile and said: "You go to bed early, I have to go out tomorrow morning."

After saying that, he opened the door and went out.

Soon, the night passed.

Early the next morning, Xue Yi left the inn after eating, flew into the sky, and flew to a town outside Lingzhou.

Lei Pang's hometown is in a small town near Lingzhou, and Xue Yi has visited it once in his memory.

He brought Lei Pang's weapons and wine jug to the house with blue tiles and red walls, which was well decorated, and told Lei's parents about Lei Pang's sacrifice for the country.

The masters of the Cave Heaven Realm are also considered top-notch figures among the people. The Lei family has a high reputation in the town because of Lei Pang, and is very respected.

The family cried miserably when they learned that Lei Pang had died.

The Lei family also has a younger brother and an adopted sister.

The younger brother is named Lei Gang. He is 22 years old this year. He has married and had children and lives a happy life. He also learned the low-level skills taught by Lei Pang and practiced to the eighth level of the Dragon and Tiger Realm. He can be regarded as a little master in the town.

The younger sister is named Lei Ling. She is only 15 years old and has not married yet. She is an orphan picked up in the mountains a few years ago. She is pretty, and Xue Yi noticed that this little sister has a lively aura and seems to be a good seedling for cultivation.

After the family finished crying, Xue Yi mentioned the changes in Shengwei Mansion during the conversation.

Lei Pang's father immediately expressed his willingness to let Lei Ling replace Lei Pang and join Shengwei Mansion as a female guard.

Xue Yi thought that the original backer of the Lei family was the eldest son Lei Pang. Now that Lei Pang is dead, without the support of the master of the cave realm, the Lei family may decline.

Lei Ling seems to have good qualifications. Although she is already fifteen years old, it is not too late to practice now, and she may have a chance to become a master.

So he nodded and agreed. After seven days, when the funeral of the Lei family is over, someone will come to pick her up.
