Chapter 42: Chapter 42 Before Leaving
Lian'er's expression changed slightly when she heard that. She took a small step back and looked at Xiao Yan with a look full of vigilance, which made Xiao Yan feel quite embarrassed.
Xiao Yan's thoughts raced, and he reorganized his words before he spoke again:
"Of course, when I say leaving, I don't mean leaving Qingyang City. You will still stay in Qingyang City in the future. And, brother promises that you will never hurt innocent people again."
As soon as Xiao Yan said this, the little girl's eyes lit up, a hint of joy appeared in her eyes, and a lovely smile bloomed on her mouth, which made Xiao Yan smile slightly as well.
"Is what my brother said true? Lian'er will never hurt anyone again?"
Xiao Yan smiled and nodded, then said to Lian'er:
"Well, I will cure your disease. I will also bring you a sister who has had this disease to be your master. That sister is my friend! The master will treat Lian'er very well and can make Lian'er very powerful!"
Lian'er's face was filled with joy when she heard this. Ever since Xiao Yan's move just now to dissolve her poisonous fog, she had already determined that Xiao Yan was a very powerful man. After hearing what Xiao Yan said, she was even more certain.
After all, the strong have very high standards. Generally, the strong will choose their own disciples. There are also many strong people who like to dig for treasures in the secular world and find a gifted disciple. This kind of thing is not uncommon.
Therefore, Lian'er was even more delighted when she heard Xiao Yan say that he wanted to find a master for her. With a master, she would no longer have to be afraid, and she would become a strong person, and no one would dare to bully her.
So after Lian'er spoke a few words to Xiao Yan, she was extremely excited and wanted to follow Xiao Yan.
Anyway, as long as he was in Qingyang City, it didn't matter whether he became Xiao Yan's disciple or not. After all, as long as he followed Xiao Yan, he would be safe.
After this, Xiao Yan and the little girl were both very happy and left here.
What the little girl was naively thinking was that she could stay safely in Qingyang City without hurting others and that she could have a powerful master to protect her.
And Xiao Yan was also thinking the same thing. He finally encountered a poisonous body, which was considered as finding a disciple for Xiao Yixian. How could he not be happy and think well for her?
Yes, the Evil Poison Body. This was the third time Xiao Yan had seen the Evil Poison Body. The first time, naturally, it took him a lot of hard work before he was able to finally control the Little Medical Fairy who had the Evil Poison Body.
As for the second time, it was of course the master of the Glacier Valley, the Glacier Venerable, Binghe. Although it was an artificially created poisonous body, if it were allowed to truly grow, its power would probably be no less than that of a real poisonous body.
Therefore, the Glacier Valley Master, Binghe, whom Xiao Yan met, had naturally seen the Evil Poison Body once.
As for the Lian'er he met this time, she was another one of those pure evil poison bodies, but now Lian'er's physique was still in the initial stage, and there was still a long way to go before she could truly grow up. Therefore, Xiao Yan wanted to protect Lian'er while she was in this infancy.
On the one hand, he wanted to prevent her from hurting others, and on the other hand, he also wanted to protect her and leave a satisfactory disciple for the Little Medical Fairy. In this way, he could have the best of both worlds.
Xiao Yan led Lian'er, and Lian'er hid behind Xiao Yan all the way, following him closely, as if she was afraid that others would see her. Xiao Yan also kept comforting Lian'er along the way, telling her not to be afraid, which made Lian'er even closer to Xiao Yan.
Not long after, two people, one big and one small, arrived in front of the Liu family mansion. When the two guards saw that it was Xiao Yan who came back, one of them immediately ran into the Liu mansion to call Liu Huabai and others.
The other one came to Xiao Yan, bowed, glanced at Lian'er, and then took Xiao Yan and Lian'er into the Liu family mansion.
A moment later, Liu Huabai, the head of the Liu family, and Liu Xincheng and other elders of the Liu family all came to Xiao Yan with smiles on their faces and bowed to him.
Seeing Xiao Yan returning again, everyone thought that he would stay for a while longer. However, they did not expect that as soon as they met, Xiao Yan explained the purpose of his return.
Xiao Yan looked at the surprised looks of Liu Huabai and the others, smiled, but shook his head slightly, and then said:
"I came back this time not to stay in the Liu family for a longer period of time, but to ask you to do me another favor."
Upon hearing this, Liu Huabai and the others all raised their eyebrows slightly, looked at each other, and glanced at Xiao Yan, who had a calm face and no sign of trying to retain him. Liu Xincheng was the first to look at Xiao Yan and asked:
"I wonder if you need help from my Liu family. If we can, we will do our best to help you."
Xiao Yan smiled and nodded when he heard this, and then said with a smile:
"It's not a big deal actually."
Xiao Yan smiled as he looked at Lian'er who was holding onto his sleeve, then looked at Liu Xincheng and said:
"It's just that after I left, I found this little girl. I think she has a good physique and extraordinary talent. It just so happens that I have a good friend who was about the same as she is now when she was young, so I helped her reserve this disciple first. However, I can't find my friend now, and I may have some troubles in the near future. Therefore, I want to entrust her to the Liu family first."
Liu Huabai and others' faces twitched when they heard this. To bring back a gifted disciple after going out must mean that his vision is either too good or too low. But looking at Xiao Yan's strength, his vision is naturally not low.
Then, wouldn't the apprentice he found for his friend have a bright future? If the Liu family could make friends with her and become the little girl's future master, then the rise of the Liu family would be inevitable.
Besides, Xiao Yan sent her here personally, so wasn't that intentional? Liu Xincheng's eyes flashed with a gleam, and his eyes were full of gratitude as he looked at Xiao Yan.
Now, Xiao Yan has given this great opportunity to the Liu family, so how could he not cherish it? Liu Xincheng looked at Lian'er who was standing beside Xiao Yan, and a smile appeared on his wrinkled old face, making her look very kind.
Seeing this, Xiao Yan smiled slightly, glanced at Lian'er who looked timid, then looked at Liu Huabai and said a few simple words. Liu Huabai dismissed all the elders, leaving only the chief elder Liu Xincheng, who entered the meeting hall with Xiao Yan and the other three.
A moment later, a young man trotted into the hall.
Liu Xiang closed his eyes tightly. Xiao Yan pointed his finger at Liu Xiang's brow. A light flashed and Liu Xiang's whole body trembled violently. After a few breaths, Liu Xiang slowly opened his eyes and nodded to Xiao Yan. Xiao Yan looked at Liu Huabai and the other two and said solemnly:
"I hope that only you three know about this matter. If Lian'er has any problems in the future, I'll leave it to you three."
The three of them nodded heavily. Xiao Yan looked at Lian'er beside him again, put two fingers together, and tapped Lian'er's brow. Lian'er shrank her head fearfully, but still did not dodge.
Xiao Yan smiled and retracted his two fingers. A flash of fire passed by, and a lotus-shaped fire mark exactly the same as Xiao Yan's appeared between Lian'er's eyebrows. Lian'er frowned, reached out and touched the fire mark which felt a little warm, pouted her lips, and said nothing.
Xiao Yan turned his head again and looked at Liu Huabai and the other two, especially Liu Xiang. After a long moment, he spoke again:
"I think you have already known about Lian'er's matter through my voice transmission just now."
The three of them nodded in agreement when they heard this. Seeing this, Xiao Yan continued:
"So, you all understand the sealing method?"
The three of them nodded again, and Liu Xincheng smiled and said:
"Haha, if we can't even learn from the guidance of our seniors, then we have lived in vain."
Everyone laughed again after hearing this. Xiao Yan looked at Liu Xiang and continued:
"Among the three of you, I am more confident in Patriarch Liu and the Great Elder. Only you, Liu Xiang, you are Wen Shi Shao. When facing Lian Er's outburst, you may not be able to control it. Therefore, I left my Fire God Seal in Lian Er's body, which is enough to completely suppress the poisonous mist of Lian Er's physical strength. So, you can rest assured that nothing will happen to you."
Liu Xiang's eyes changed slightly when he heard that, but in the end, he nodded firmly. Xiao Yan smiled with satisfaction and then walked out of the hall.
