Sikong Jing watched Hua ixi’s hurried departure, full of doubt, why so noisy and bustling?
But forget it, the trouble with the hard-to-communicate Hua ixi is finally resolved, no need to think about her mother’s matters later.
Just leave it to fate.
Sikong Jing returned to Sky Wolf Court, said goodbye to Yang Yi and others, and then returned to his room to rest.
Just as he sat down, he said with cold glints in his eyes: "The Black Jade Fragnted Map has already been deciphered. Will soone co to find , or are they just here to test how much of the Qianyuan Map secrets the Overlord Comrce has unlocked?"
Sikong Jing remained vigilant about this.
Hua ixi returned to the Divine Shuttle Ship and then said, "Call everyone who learned the Soldier Killing Map from Sikong Jing to , then co back with to Yao Residence, and afterwards, you’ll... look good!"
Several Nu Hua Team mbers looked grim, but thinking that twenty people would be punished together, it wasn’t that big of a deal.
After all, Captain Hua didn’t seem that angry.
...
At Yao Residence, Hua ixi brought back twenty Nu Hua Team mbers.
It wasn’t very late yet, and she ran directly to Jiang Wanyou’s room, who hadn’t slept.
The first thing she said was, "Mother, Sikong Jing has already left seclusion, and I have warned him. That East Plain Kid didn’t dare to resist , just nodding and bowing."
If soone heard this, they’d probably be speechless. Sikong Jing never seed to have been nodding and bowing the entire ti, right?
To this, Jiang Wanyou just smiled, always feeling her daughter was a bit insincere, but she didn’t expose her.
"And mother, you shouldn’t go to the Chaotic Eighth District in the next few months. I heard it’s been chaotic there recently with treasures coming out. I’ll go deliver food and clothes to the children for you."
Hua ixi spoke out her previous thoughts, ensuring that no chance encounter would occur.
At this point, Jiang Wanyou was slightly stunned and asked, "Really?"
Hesitant, Hua ixi found a convincing excuse and said, "It’s like that because Su Old Demon’s Qianyuan Soldier Killing Map has appeared, making the Central Plains very unsettled recently, so mother should stay at ho and not walk around."
Jiang Wanyou paused, thinking: You should call him Grandpa Su too.
But she certainly wouldn’t say it out loud and instead agreed, seeing her daughter’s extrely earnest appearance.
Hua ixi also smiled sweetly.
After talking about other matters with Jiang Wanyou, she left her mother’s room, and then she said proudly, "Sikong Jing, my mother promised not to go out recently, let’s see what fate you can still have."
Jiang Wanyou sat alone in the room, softly saying, "ixi, mother will still have to go to the Chaotic Eighth District at least once, but don’t worry about it being too chaotic, Uncle Xiu and Uncle He are there."
"What about the character of Sikong Jing? This matter seems to need to be asked from Ah Yi."
Although the Maid, known as the little princess, had ntioned Sikong Jing, it was only one-sided, just one matter.
Jiang Wanyou felt it wasn’t enough to determine the situation with Sikong Jing, and Uncle Xiu shouldn’t take a disciple only to find a pit.
Not thinking much more, Jiang Wanyou slowly fell asleep.
An hour later, she suddenly opened her eyes, only to see a tall and elegant figure standing at the foot of the bed.
She froze for a mont and hastily called out, "Yulou."
The person standing on the bed was indeed Yao Yulou. He smiled and said, "Wanyou, sorry to disturb you, please continue sleeping."
After speaking, Yao Yulou turned to leave...
However, Jiang Wanyou cried out loudly, "Yulou, why never touch ? Do you disdain for having been married before?"
With these words, tears gently rolled down Jiang Wanyou’s face.
Yao Yulou stopped, turned around with a smile, and replied, "Of course not. Didn’t I tell you before? My cultivation technique cannot touch won. I have to reach the third realm of the Emperor Martial Stage first."
"Wanyou, rest assured, it shouldn’t take long for to reach this realm."
"So just sleep peacefully."
After than, Yao Yulou turned again and left the room...
In the pitch-dark room, only Jiang Wanyou remained, trembling, tears streaming down her face.
The reason she always had doubts was because ever since Yao Yulou saved them, ever since he accepted her, he never touched her, citing the very reason he just gave.
It’s been more than a decade now, could she not have doubts?
And Jiang Wanyou always suspects Yao Yulou is investigating her as so remnant for Grandpa Su.
But on the other hand, if he was investigating, why couldn’t he touch her?
This reason is likewise untenable. Could it really all be true, just due to the cultivation technique?
Jiang Wanyou couldn’t sleep and slowly got up, dressed, and ca out, walking quietly in her courtyard, her mind full of mories from long ago, scenes of battles alongside her father and Uncle Su...
Also mories with Hua Lidian, and finally, the gentle and refined Yao Yulou.
As she walked...
She suddenly stood still, seeing twenty people in the front yard, each holding a large stone, with a Black Jade Map before them, doing sothing unknown.
But she knew they were all her daughter’s Nu Hua Team mbers, having seen them before.
Jiang Wanyou cast aside other thoughts and stepped forward to ask, "What’s going on with you?"
The Nu Hua Team mbers imdiately looked at Jiang Wanyou, then bitterly replied: "Madam, we’re being punished."
Jiang Wanyou was stunned, "ixi’s punishnt for you? What mistake did you make?"
A Nu Hua Team mber responded, "Nothing really, it’s just that we embarrassed Captain Hua. She was at odds with Brother Sikong, and we secretly apologized to Brother Sikong and learned the Soldier Killing Map from him..."
"Coincidentally, this was exposed tonight, and Captain Hua found out."
"So she punished us to hold these stones while deciphering the Soldier Killing Map. We can’t put down the stones until we figure it out."
Hearing about this, Jiang Wanyou was stunned again.
"Brother Sikong? Is it Sikong Jing?" Jiang Wanyou asked softly.
The Nu Hua Team mbers froze for a mont, then asked back: "Yes, that’s him. You’ve heard of Sikong Jing, madam?"
Jiang Wanyou nodded lightly, "Your captain ntioned him to , seemingly with so bias against him. I’m a bit worried. Can you tell what kind of person this Sikong Jing is? Would he harm ixi?"
Upon hearing this, the Nu Hua Team mbers exchanged glances.
One of them laughed, "Of course not. Captain Hua harbors ill feelings towards Sikong Jing mainly because of the East Plain Northern Land’s flower..."
"Ahem ahem..."
As he spoke, the surroundings were instantly filled with coughing sounds.
Each Nu Hua Team mber stared daggers at him. Learning the Soldier Killing Map from Sikong Jing at most results in being punished by holding stones here.
But ntioning Hua Lidian, that calls for death.
The Nu Hua Team mber quickly stopped, then continued along the earlier lines, "Mainly, during their ti in the East Plain Northern Land, Captain Hua was defeated by Brother Sikong’s Soldier Killing Map, and she hasn’t liked him ever since."
The others imdiately shifted the topic, talking about Sikong Jing as a person, saying he’s good.
"Even though Brother Sikong and Captain Hua don’t get along well, he still taught us the Soldier Killing Array..."
"Yes, yes, he even gave up the chance to recover his arm for the sake of his hotown. What happened tonight was even more shocking. He could have received a huge reward but gave it up to restore his teammates’ limbs."
"Madam, you have no idea how shocking the scene was. All the Sky Wolf Team mbers, including Yang Yi, bowed to Sikong Jing."
Each one speaking in turns, with amazent.
A quarter of an hour later, Jiang Wanyou turned back in the direction of the room, eyes shining brightly...
It’s confird, Sikong Jing is of great character, and his actions are more similar to Uncle Su, making him worth Uncle Xiu’s nurturing.
