Chapter 1851: Chapter 1847: Xiao Sha Awakens (Part 3)
You could say that talents as extraordinary as Xiang Xiang and Nian Nian’s are what countless people dream of.
Some people are even willing to pay any price for it.
But Xue An wasn’t in a hurry at all, even saying he wanted to give them a happy childhood.
This made Li Jingxing seriously doubt if Xue An’s brain was muddled.
"Ahem, Xue An, you were once the Immortal Venerable, you should know better than I how treacherous the Multiverse is, right?"
"Besides, if such a great talent isn’t cultivated early, it would be the greatest waste. Do you plan to protect them for their entire lives?"
Li Jingxing began to persuade earnestly.
Xue An shook his head with a half-smile, "I understand everything you’re saying, but I still think that a person only has one childhood. Letting them spend it happily and leave beautiful memories is better than looking back and remembering nothing but dull cultivation. Besides...."
Xue An’s expression was somewhat dim, "From the time they were born until they were four years old, I, as their father, was absent. They suffered a lot during that time, so I want to double, no, tenfold, compensate them back!"
Seeing Xue An’s apologetic look, Li Jingxing, who was prepared to continue persuading, froze and swallowed back his words.
"Alright, your idea isn’t wrong. But Xiang Xiang, I really like the girl too much, what do you say I accept her as a registered disciple first?"
Li Jingxing was still unwilling to give up.
Xue An chuckled hearing this, "You really want to take my daughter as a disciple?"
"Mm!"
"Fine, after all, you’re an Immortal Emperor, which barely qualifies you to be my daughter’s registered master."
Li Jingxing almost spat blood upon hearing this.
Since when did an Immortal Emperor become so worthless?
He was eagerly trying to accept a disciple, yet in Xue An’s words, he barely qualified.
But for Xiang Xiang, he kept his mouth shut.
Just then, Xue An extended his hand towards him, "Hand it over!"
"Hand over what?"
"Nonsense, the gift, of course! Who doesn’t give a gift when accepting a disciple?" Xue An said with a radiant smile.
Li Jingxing: "...."
Clenching his teeth, he said, "I suddenly understand why the Dragon Clan calls you Xue Bapi, you’re truly one to pluck a feather from a passing goose!"
With that, he begrudgingly took out something and placed it in Xue An’s hand.
"You’re too kind, let me see what was gifted. If it’s not precious enough, I can’t accept it." Xue An said gleefully, then looked down to inspect the object in his hand.
It was a slender, crimson small sword, seemingly unremarkable at first glance, but upon closer inspection, it emitted a chilling Sword Intent, making one’s hair stand on end.
Xue An’s face revealed an expression of surprise.
Li Jingxing said, "How about this? Precious enough?"
Xue An nodded and then carefully put away the small sword.
Because this seemingly ordinary small sword was condensed from Li Jingxing’s own Sword Dao Cultivation.
You could say that this small sword held the full force of an Immortal Emperor’s strike. Its preciousness is imaginable.
"It seems you are indeed quite sincere!"
"Nonsense, who would joke with something like this?"
Then the two of them looked at each other and burst into laughter together.
After the laughter, the two drank heartily, discussing ancient and modern times with great joy.
Finally.
The two drank all the alcohol they had swiped from the Great Elder. Even with their strong tolerance, they were now somewhat tipsy.
Xue An said, "Where do you plan to go next?"
"First, go back to the Jian Sect. After all, I’ve been away for three years, I have to go back and take a look!"
Xue An nodded, "Yes, your disciples have been looking for you. It’s time to go back and see them!"
Saying this, Xue An suddenly remembered something and smiled teasingly at Li Jingxing, "When the news of your return spreads, a woman might come looking for you."
"Who?" Li Jingxing asked with a bewildered look.
"Hehe, I can’t say now, you’ll know then!" Xue An said mysteriously.
"Being so cryptic, how boring, I’m off, I’m off!"
With that, Li Jingxing stood up, his expression suddenly becoming very serious.
"Xue An, there’s something I need to tell you in advance!"
"Go ahead!"
"Your return is something many people don’t want to see, especially beware of those who once pledged loyalty to you."
Xue An’s eyes turned cold at these words, "I understand that."
"As long as you understand, farewell for now!"
With that, Li Jingxing transformed into a streak of sword light and shot into the sky, vanishing into the endless horizon in the blink of an eye.
Xue An reclined lazily on the chair, slowly drinking the wine from his cup, his eyes gradually brightening, then he chuckled lightly and said.
"All have betrayed, it seems... I really was a bit too lenient back then!"
This bout of drinking finally allowed Xue An to fall into a deep sleep.
Meanwhile, the busy Great Elder also dragged his weary dragon body back to his nest after a long day.
But as soon as he entered the nest, he sensed something unusual.
"Hmm? A strange aura, someone’s been here?"
And then the Great Elder thought of something and immediately rushed into his treasure room.
Moments later, a piercing wail echoed through the skies.
"My wine!"
Not mentioning the heartbroken Great Elder who was almost in tears, in that Holy Land, Xiao Sha’s Dragon Egg suddenly began to flash rapidly, and fine cracks appeared on its surface.
The radiance of the Holy Land also began to boil.
This scene immediately startled Zhang Xiao Yu, who was waiting nearby. She stood on the edge of the Holy Land, watching with anticipation.
The cracks on the Dragon Egg began to widen.
Finally, with a loud bang, a brilliance shot up from the Holy Land, and when it soared into the sky, it was actually a miniature Five-Clawed Golden Dragon.
Afterwards, this Five-Clawed Golden Dragon let out a long roar at the sky, but unfortunately, the sound was not as majestic as imagined, instead, it was like a newborn baby announcing its presence.
Then this Five-Clawed Golden Dragon landed on the ground, and after a flicker of light, it transformed into human form.
Zhang Xiao Yu’s eyes gradually widened.
Because appearing before her was not the familiar Xiao Sha, but an adorable little girl with pink cheeks and fair skin.
This little girl first looked around, then said to Zhang Xiao Yu, "Is it just you? Where’s the master?"
Zhang Xiao Yu stared blankly for a moment, then suddenly began to laugh.
Because the little girl’s serious demeanor was just too amusing.
The little girl frowned, "What are you laughing at? I’m asking you where the boss is!"
Zhang Xiao Yu laughed even louder, then reached out and pinched the little girl’s cheek, "Hehe, so cute!"
The little girl’s face instantly darkened, her eyes twitching furiously.
Zhang Xiao Yu, oblivious, pinched her again, "Wow, it feels so nice, I just want to take a bite!"
Looking like she was about to drool.
This time, the little girl lost her temper completely, clenching her fair little fists tightly, then she gave Zhang Xiao Yu an uppercut.
Don’t underestimate her small size; her strength was incredibly powerful, throwing Zhang Xiao Yu flying with one punch.
The little girl quickly followed up, and gave Zhang Xiao Yu a good beating.
Afterwards, the little girl stood with her hands on her hips, exuding a chilling aura, "How dare you touch me? Is it that I can’t wield a sword, or you’re just feeling bold?"
