Fairies Are Fierce

Chapter 406

As the saying goes, the more a mother-in-law looks at her son-in-law, the more pleasing she is to her eyes, but this sentence does not always work.

Xie Wen sat on the grand teacher's chair, with a gentle and easy-going demeanor, his eyes lingered on the men and women on both sides of the tea table, the more he looked... the more uneasy he felt!

Xie Wen is a mother. When Qiutao left her, she was less than six years old. She wore braids, big eyes, and a round face. She is the same, she is a well-educated, reasonable and dignified young lady.

But Qiutao in front of her was wearing a small skirt, except for the girls' hair accessories replaced by shofar braids, nothing else had changed; that was all, sitting on a chair with her head bowed silently, her hands were still like a little girl's Stirring the fabric of the skirt, it doesn't look very smart at first glance...

But Zuo Lingquan next to him is different, with a well-proportioned figure and slender limbs, a handsome face with sword eyebrows and starry eyes, sitting on a chair with a serious expression and a non-human temperament, I am afraid that no one doubts that he is a certain Immortal Lord who maintains a youthful appearance.

It's nothing for the two of them to see alone, but once they sit together, they feel that the girl next to her will be crushed by the man after she gets married, and even if she smiles, she will be afraid of her husband's disgust.

If that's the case, Xie Wen can figure it out. Women are like this. Although Xie's daughters never marry outsiders and only recruit sons-in-law, that's an old rule for thousands of years. Now the Xie family has already fallen apart. There is no confidence in following this deadly rule.

But the stern sword fairy in front of him doesn't seem to be as cold as Xie Wen imagined. She was held down by that fierce woman just now, and she saw with her own eyes that the boy put his arms around the woman's chest.

And that woman seemed to have gotten used to it, and she didn't say as much as the first time, she just said a little fiercely.

Xie Wen didn't even dare to think about how flat the reaction was in public and how close he was in private.

Xie Wen didn't know who that woman was, but he could guess that she must be of extraordinary status, which can be seen from Zuo Lingquan's somewhat strict wifely behavior.

It's fine for a girl to marry a man and be controlled by a man, but if she marries a married man, she will be controlled by a big house...

Xie Wen is the head of the family, and all men come to the door. It is really hard to imagine how to live under the fence of others.

But she didn't dare to show her thoughts. She didn't take care of her daughter for so many years. If she was dissatisfied with her son-in-law, she might be hated by her daughter as a mother...

Zuo Lingquan sat upright and didn't look sideways, trying to appear calm and composed, but Qiutao didn't speak, and Aunt Xie didn't speak either, so he couldn't help feeling embarrassed in his heart. After waiting for a while, he took the initiative to say:

"Don't worry, Aunt Xie, Qiutao has been doing well these years, she is smart and has not suffered much."

Xie Wen nodded slightly, and looked at Zuo Lingquan. He really couldn't tell his age, so he asked:

"Ling Quan, how old are you this year?"

Zuo Lingquan said with a smile: "The imaginary age is twenty-two."

"twenty two?"

Xie Wen didn't see Zuo Lingquan's realm, but he could guess that it would definitely not be below the jade rank. At this age, it can be said to be incredible. She was slightly surprised and said:

"I didn't expect to be only twenty-two, Qiutao is better than you..."

"mother!"

Qiu Tao, who was playing with her skirt with her head down, suddenly raised her head when she heard the sound, with a bit of embarrassment on her face:

"Master Zuo and I are three or four years apart. Don't think blindly."

Three or four years old?

Xie Wen was stunned for a moment and thought to himself: This girl actually knows how to pretend to be a twenty-five-six girl in front of her lover. Doesn’t she look stupid...

Seeing his daughter say this, Xie Wen naturally didn't want to mess around, so he just smiled:

"Regardless of the age of a practitioner, as long as they fall in love with each other, it doesn't matter if they are three or four years old, and it is not a problem if they are three or four thousand years old. Um... Lingquan, do you already have a Taoist companion?"

"I……"

"No!"

Xie Qiutao looked at her mother with a smile and said seriously:

"Young master Zuo is obsessed with swordsmanship. He focuses on practicing and slaying demons. How can he have time to think about these things? Mother, please don't ask."

Zuo Lingquan opened his mouth, but he couldn't say anything.

Although Xie Wen hadn't seen his daughter for many years, and wished he could hug her and talk for three days and three nights, but at this moment, he thought of the feather duster in Linglong Pavilion for the first time.

This stinky girl, are you blind as a mother?

Seeing the attitude of his daughter protecting her husband, Xie Wen didn't need to ask anything else. He looked at Zuo Lingquan and said:

"I'm here. Although I can't help myself, I haven't suffered much. Raising spirit turtles to teach disciples is quite fulfilling. You don't have to worry about it. Qiutao has grown up, and I, as a mother, don't have to worry about it." I can’t take care of her anymore, so I can only rely on you in the future.”

Zuo Lingquan said seriously: "Don't worry, Aunt Xie, I have lived and died with Qiutao for many years, and her affairs are my affairs. Although I can't let my aunt get away now, as long as I know that my aunt is here, I will never Let Qiutao down."

Xie Qiutao nodded quickly: "Yes. Mr. Zuo and I are close buddies who have been through life and death..."

Xie Wen sighed secretly, being left speechless by this stupid girl. She thought for a while and said directly:

"Qiu Tao has a bit of a naughty temper, but as a lady of my Xie family, she will not lose to any woman in the world in terms of virtue. This jade pendant is a gift I prepared for her... Dowry, I will give it to you today..."

As Xie Wen spoke, he took out a small jade turtle from his sleeve and wanted to hand it to Zuo Lingquan.

Zuo Lingquan naturally raised his hand to pick it up, but Qiu Tao next to him was a little at a loss. He directly pressed his hand down and snatched the jade turtle away:

"Mom, what are you doing..."

"Qiu Tao!"

After holding it in for so long, Xie Wen finally couldn't bear it any longer. His face darkened, and he took out the feather duster with a flick of his wrist.

Xie Qiutao shrank her neck when she saw this, and memories of her childhood came to mind. She quickly put the jade pendant into Zuo Lingquan's hand and sat down properly:

"Hee~"

"..."

The familiar smiles and movements made Xie Wen's slight annoyance disappear in an instant. His brain was in a trance, and a sour taste appeared on the tip of his nose. He couldn't help but recall the scenes of mother and daughter together.

Zuo Lingquan held the jade pendant and saw that Xie Wen's mood fluctuated greatly and Qiu Tao also hesitated to speak. Knowing that it was difficult for the two of them to talk to each other since he was here, he opened his mouth and said:

"Auntie Xie, I remember what you just said. You and Qiutao haven't seen each other for a long time. Please talk more."

Xie Wen slowly put down the feather duster, nodded slightly to Zuo Lingquan, and continued to look at his daughter who was biting her lower lip.

Zuo Lingquan smiled, stood up, bowed, turned and walked out of the room.

Xie Qiutao waited for the sound of closing the door, and the emotions that had been suppressed for a long time burst out. She stood up suddenly and threw herself into Xie Wen's arms. She pursed her lips at first, but she couldn't hold it in for a moment before she burst out crying. She didn't know it was because she was crying with joy. Still sad.

"mother……"

Xie Wen originally had thousands of words to say, but he couldn't say them at this time. He held his daughter in silence for a moment, and tears appeared in his eyes...

——

The moonlight is long.

Xie Wen is the person in charge of Black Tortoise Lake. The spiritual beast breeding circle located inside the Cangsha Ancient River does not need special supervision. It is surrounded by disciples that Xie Wen has taken in the name of helpers. However, there are no disciples in Xie Wen’s house. Others.

Shangguan Yutang walked out of the hanging flower door and stood in the verandah of the outer courtyard, looking at the huge Black Tortoise Lake outside. While analyzing various formations, he was thinking about the conversation just now, very focused.

Even if Miss Qiu was on the Jade Level, she was still too far away from the real ceiling of Jiuzhou to disturb the ancestors, so she stood in the verandah and looked at the giant tortoise in the yard.

Lu Gui is Xie Wen's spiritual pet. At this time, he was lying on the ground obediently, looking down at the bird in front of him.

Tuanzi squatted in front of the mainland turtle's head and chattered "chichichichi..." and ate the spiritual fruit that the land turtle used as a midnight snack. He didn't think of himself as a foreign bird at all.

After thinking for a while, Shangguan Yutang might have no idea, so he put it aside for the time being, and turned around:

"After dawn, you go directly to the Eagle Castle; the Grotto-Heaven blessed land is an important source of income for the sect. The monks who are here must be the ancestor's confidants and may know some information. While you are looking for the prisoners, see if there is any chance to find out what happened here. Insider."

Miss Qiu nodded and accepted the order, then looked back at the back house. Zuo Lingquan hadn't come out yet, and she didn't know how to chat with the Valkyrie. When she was hesitating, she suddenly remembered something - she had captured Qiu Tao Niang just now. Dear, she seems to have seen the Valkyrie pressing down on Qiu Taoniang, Zuo Lingquan hugging the Valkyrie, with her hands still on...

"..."

Miss Qiu, who was originally a little nervous, suddenly became weird, and subconsciously glanced at Shangguan Yutang's chest.

Shangguan Yutang has so much experience, she guessed what Miss Qiu was thinking with just this tiny movement, and explained plainly:

"The deity uses Tang Jingxun's body. Zuo Lingquan's demeanor just now in a hurry is to chase after Jingxun. It has nothing to do with the deity, so don't think too much."

Yeah?

Miss Qiu is not stupid, as a jade-ranked powerhouse, she is not low in the study of the soul.

The essence of human beings is the soul, and the body is just the body, or even a tool; no matter where, the pursuit of responsibility is always to find the soul that controls the body, not the innocent victim whose body was controlled.

The Valkyrie used Miss Tang's body, and her breasts were grabbed by Zuo Lingquan just now. If Miss Tang was blamed, then who would be blamed if she scolded the woman in front of her now?

Miss Qiu is very weird, but there are some things that I really dare not think about, because they are too subversive.

Shangguan Yutang knew that it was difficult to explain this matter, after all, even she herself couldn't figure it out, and after serious consideration, something big would definitely happen, so she could only say:

"If your heart is clear, you will still be Saint if you are covered in mud; if your heart is not clean, your clothes will be neat and meaningless. When looking at something, you must look at the original intention and heart. You cannot blind one eye and make a conclusion based on external behavior alone. You understand ?"

These words are very philosophical. To put it simply, as long as your heart is clear, even if you have sex with Zuo Lingquan, you will still be clean; if you have a secret in your heart, you will still be clear about keeping a distance from Zuo Lingquan.

Miss Qiu definitely couldn't see through Valkyrie's heart, but the impression she accumulated over time convinced her that it was impossible for Valkyrie to do such a weird thing as marrying her son-in-law, so she looked very ashamed in her eyes, and she said with cupped hands:

"I'm rude, I hope Senior Shangguan won't blame me."

Shangguan Yutang nodded slightly, meaning that children can be taught.

While the two were chatting, the aspect of the backyard opened, and Zuo Lingquan walked out.

Miss Qiu guessed why Xie Wen left Zuo Lingquan behind. Although she had some thoughts about Zuo Lingquan's several fellow Taoists, she still hoped that Qiu Tao would come out on top.

Seeing Zuo Lingquan approaching, Miss Qiu asked curiously:

"How is it? Are Aunt Xie satisfied with you?"

Zuo Lingquan didn't expect Miss Qiu to be so smart, and said with a smile:

"It's just that I said some homely things. If you ask Qiutao for specifics, I don't want to talk nonsense."

Miss Qiu has seen that Zuo Lingquan is afraid of his wife, so she is not surprised.

Shangguan Yutang glanced at Zuo Lingquan and walked towards the corner of the corridor:

"Zuo Lingquan, come here."

?

Zuo Lingquan's smile froze when he heard this, knowing that the ancestor wanted to punish him.

But why?

Zuo Lingquan felt that he performed very well today and made no mistakes. He was suddenly called aside by his ancestor so seriously, and he felt a little innocent.

Zuo Lingquan followed quickly, and after turning the corner of the verandah, he asked:

"Senior, do you have anything to do with me?"

Shangguan Yutang walked out for a while, and after making sure that Miss Qiu was not eavesdropping, he turned around with a slightly cold expression:

"Zuo Lingquan, you have become more and more unruly recently. Just now, you acted in public, don't you think this will misunderstand others?"

Zuo Lingquan might be used to touching him. Ancestor didn’t say much about him before, and he didn’t take the little mistake to heart. Seeing Ancestor showing such a face, Zuo Lingquan knew that Miss Qiu must be suspicious, and he quickly said :

"I was in a hurry just now, and senior used Jing Xun's body again. I instinctively... This move was not directed at senior, I just did it unintentionally."

Shangguan Yutang didn't believe this at all. In order to make Zuo Lingquan pay attention to the rules in the future, she continued:

"Instinct? Last time on the Snow Wolf, you took revenge on Niu Niu. Was it intentional or unintentional?"

Zuo Lingquan said naturally: "It must have been unintentional. I caught it easily. How could I intentionally be frivolous towards a woman?"

"Unintentionally, where did you hug me?"

Zuo Lingquan's expression stiffened: "Waist."

"You know what's right for others without even realizing it; why are you so direct when you get to me? Don't you treat me as an outsider?"

"No, no..." Zuo Lingquan tried his best to explain: "Miss Qiu is herself. Senior, you used the quiet body, and I..."

"Are you sure that deep down in your heart, you don't know that this body is the deity?"

Zuo Lingquan must know!

But it wasn't his first time touching him, and the ancestor wouldn't hit him, so he relaxed his vigilance and touched it easily...

Zuo Lingquan naturally did not dare to express these inner thoughts, as he would be beaten to death if he spoke out. He could only say:

"I was in a hurry and I really didn't pay attention. It was my negligence. I will never be reckless next time."

Shangguan Yutang's eyes were serious: "Next time you behave rudely to me in public, I will not be lenient again and will give you the fate you deserve. I hope you will take care of yourself."

Public?

Zuo Lingquan thought for a moment and asked out of curiosity:

"If in private, I accidentally...hiss!"

Bang——

There was a muffled sound in the corridor.

Shangguan Yutang threw Zuo Lingquan over his shoulder with a backhand, and pushed Zuo Lingquan to the ground, with his knees on his chest, condescendingly, with cold eyes:

"Who do you think I am?!"

Zuo Lingquan was almost knocked out of breath after being thrown, and Tangtang was beaten so hard that his mind suddenly cleared up and he answered seriously:

"Lord Linyuan, the Supreme of the Nine Alliances, the founder of the Iron Cu Mansion, the guardian and talker of Jade Yaozhou, the ultimate role model for female cultivators in the world, the Valkyrie, one of the ten Immortal Lords..."

Shangguan Yutang was made to laugh by Zuo Lingquan's timid appearance and words, but her strong mind allowed her to maintain her Immortal Lord posture and continued:

"And you?"

"Zuo Lingquan, Lingye's husband, a little unknown swordsman, is different from his predecessor Yunni."

Shangguan Yutang nodded with satisfaction: "It's good to know the difference between you and me. I treat you generously because I appreciate you; if you don't know the boundaries, take appreciation as a sign of weakness, feel that you can push yourself further, or even have evil intentions, it is disrespectful to me; and You should understand what will happen to those who do not respect me."

Zuo Lingquan found it quite interesting after getting used to it when Yutang pressed him down and took care of him. But he didn't dare to show that he was enjoying it, and said seriously:

"clear."

After Shangguan Yutang examined Zuo Lingquan for a moment, he felt that he was duplicity and wanted to give a few more warnings, but...

Zuo Lingquan was pinned down, with a serious face accepting his ancestor's words of "conquering people with martial virtue". Suddenly he noticed that the cold ancestor's right eye showed a little light, and his body became a little stiff, and then he said:

"Are you trying to be mean to my man again? Xiao Zuo said it wasn't intentional..."

The words stopped suddenly again, and the woman on top of him began to freeze on the spot. It must be that the two women inside him started to quarrel.

Zuo Lingquan blinked. To be honest, he was a little embarrassed. He could only lie there and wait for the two to finish arguing.

But what I didn't expect was that the two people not only quarreled this time, but also started fighting!

The woman kneeling on his chest suddenly raised her right arm, grabbed his hand, and pressed it on her left chest.

Although Zuo Lingquan didn't know the process, he could guess that Jingxun must be saying: "What's wrong with touching me? My man touches my body, what does it have to do with you? I just touch..."

The ancestor should control the left side of his body, and quickly push his hand away with his left hand, and then the left and right hands began to fight each other. The scene looked quite weird.

"..."

What can Zuo Lingquan say? He can't offend his ancestor, and he can't persuade Xunxun to stop, so he can only let his hand be held and touched here and there with an attitude of no resistance, no initiative, no responsibility, and he just lies there. Watching a play...

——

The other side.

Shangguan Lingye and his party followed the news collected along the way and came to the area of ​​Tianying Castle.

Tianying Fort is an property of the Superintendent Temple. The Tianying City outside the mountain is the Fairy Market. The fortress on the hillside overlooking the city is the private property of the Superintendent Temple. There are monks who sit here to guard the yellow beam land inside.

The Huangliang Paradise is similar to the Iron Cluster Grotto-Heaven and the Divine Fire Grotto-Heaven. It is a place for monks to experience and study. Therefore, many monks come here, but the high price of incense also discourages most people.

The Immortal Family monopolizes the blessed land of Grotto-Heaven, and the appearance is too ugly. It is easy for the desperate Independent Cultivators to attack and ruin the reputation. Therefore, they will most likely make some openings, such as winning rewards in competitions, buying elixirs, Law Weapon winnings, and even the number one. Entering the market and so on, let the Independent Cultivators who are not qualified to enter fight for it. This can not only increase the customer flow of the Xianjia Market, but also bring prestige to the sect.

The same is true for the Temple of Supervising Soldiers, because the sect is martial arts, and the way to obtain the qualification to enter the blessed land is naturally to fight.

At nightfall, the Martial Arts Arena in the center of Skyhawk City's main street was overcrowded with people watching the monks' sparring on the ring.

In a nearby fairy restaurant with a great view, Shangguan Lingye was holding a big white cat in his arms, chatting with Jiang Yi about how to find out the news:

"The head of Tianying Castle is Xu Yuanfeng, a disciple of Demon Sword Gu Chen. While guarding the blessed land, he will also help the alien race select suitable Independent Cultivator talents. If you want to investigate the alien race's main attack direction, you must either capture Xu Yuanfeng or be selected to join the alien race. As a hidden pile..."

"The alien race must be very strict about the background of the Independent Cultivator. If you and Sister Yingying go there, you can scare the alien race to death; my aunt and I are quite suitable..."

"You and Qingwan have little experience, and you rashly infiltrated into the alien army. You won't be able to survive for more than half a day before the old monsters will see your flaws. The only one who is qualified for this job is Qiu Tao."

Jiang Yi opened her mouth, but she didn't refute. After all, when it comes to detecting disguises and adapting to unfamiliar environments, Lingye is no match for Qiutao, especially for them. She thought for a while and said:

"Then what should we do? Go catch Xu Yuanfeng?"

Shangguan Lingye shook his head slightly: "Xu Yuanfeng is a martial arts cultivator, so it is not easy to catch him. If he is caught, it will be difficult to interrogate him for information, and he will also scare the snake. This target is too difficult to catch and is not suitable. Let's change it to another one."

In the room, Cui Yingying was watching Qingwan making the 'White Tiger Knife'. Seeing the two frowning, she said:

"I'll ask Yutang to see what she has to say."

Cui Yingying contacted the ancestral tree of Taohuatan with her own life, and wanted to chat with Shangguan Yutang.

The connection between Peach Blossom Ancestral Tree and Cui Yingying is not as direct as the connection between soul and soul, and it is still a bit delayed.

After a while, Cui Yingying frowned, and her gentle and familiar face showed suspicion.

Wu Qingwan sensed something was wrong, put down the carving knife in her hand, and asked:

"What's wrong?"

Shangguan Lingye and Jiang Yi also turned around and looked at Cui Yingying.

Cui Yingying actually had nothing to do with her. When she was communicating with Yutang, she found that Yutang was a bit arrogant in her speech, and she didn't know what kind of shameful things she was doing.

However, judging from the sky, it is estimated that Jing Xun and Zuo Lingquan were in a close relationship, and it would not be surprising that Shangguan Yutang would suffer as well.

Cui Yingying didn't go into details and said, "She asked us to do our own thing. Zuo Lingquan and Qiu Niuniu will handle Tianying Castle."

When Shangguan Lingye heard this, although he did not dare to disobey his master, he was still a little unhappy and sat down at the table:

"I can't even handle it, how will Qiu Niuniu handle it?"

Jiang Yi was very interested in this topic, and then said:

"That's right. Now that we have a new person, we forget about the old one. In the past, Lingye was always by my side when I went into danger, but now it's Qiu Niuniu. Alas, maybe this is the change of fortune~"

Shangguan Lingye rubbed the white cat, and responded with a smile: "Jiang Yi, after practicing for two years, your temper has changed, little vinegar jar."

Jiang Yi picked up the 'Zheng' seal to play with, and her smile made people feel like a spring breeze:

"You have to make some progress. If you want to live a good life, you have to relax. Even if we work hard here and a woman hooks up with your man outside, we can't care about it, right Lingye?"

Shangguan Lingye was not in the right position, so he was speechless.

Leng Zhu silently made tea beside him, feeling that the princess had changed. She used to be a small vinegar jar and was sour when seeing everyone, but now she has changed into a vinegar pot, watching Ling Ye pour the tea into the bowl alone. Although the way is a bit special, to be honest, it looks pretty cool.

Cui Yingying blinked her eyes when she saw that the two started to fight each other again, and interjected:

"Qiu Niuniu is following Zuo Lingquan, and there is something wrong with that... How about we meet them and ask Qiu Niuniu to come over, and I can continue to follow Zuo Lingquan?"

Shangguan Lingye did not object to Cui Yingying following. After all, Cui Yingying had already boarded the ship. As the eldest, she had to take care of her sister, but the current situation did not allow it. She shook her head and said:

"Zuo Lingquan has master's help. If senior Yingying comes over, we will have to fend for ourselves. Qiu Niuniu will not be able to help us except to fight against me."

Cui Yingying knew that this idea was unrealistic, and said with a smile: "Just talk about it, why don't you go and accompany Zuo Lingquan and let Qiu Niuniu come over?"

Shangguan Lingye agreed with this proposal ten thousand times, but Jiang Yi said seriously:

"No, Lingye is thoughtful and resourceful. She is our backbone. Once she leaves, won't the team break up? Those who want to achieve great things must endure what ordinary people can't bear. Even if we know that Qiu Niuniu is poaching, we can't act selfishly. Delaying business, Ling Ye, you think so?"

It's a hammer!

Shangguan Lingye City Mansion is also really kind, took a breath, and nodded slightly:

"Jiang Yi is right."

Wu Qingwan watched the three people's words from the sidelines, and she couldn't help shaking her head secretly in her heart, saying: The three monks have no water to eat, the ancients did not deceive me, alas...

Wu Qingwan was Zuo Lingquan's first woman anyway, and no one could shake her status, and she didn't bother to compete with her younger sisters. She never let go of the second uncle's matter, seeing the three of them chatting about the topic to death, she thought for a while and said:

"I've searched around, but there's no suitable target. Over there at Wangtidal Beach, it's said to be the workshop of Heavenly Emperor City in Kuibingzhou, which specializes in making war-prepared materials for foreign races. Why don't you go there and have a look?"

Shangguan Lingye was stupefied by Jiang Yi. Hearing this, he became serious and took out a map to check:

"Let's do some research first. If your second uncle is really there, it's probably even harder to crack than Skyhawk Castle..."
