Hey, you are reborn too?

Xie Yongwei's heart skipped a beat.

The two were wearing night clothes. Judging from their appearance and attire, they were very similar to the Tianhong Sect member who had delivered a message to Jiang Mian in the mansion not long ago.

She took a deep breath and a feeling of warmth rushed up her back.

Yes, I clearly showed you the Tianhong Jue. Logically, even if Jiang Mian couldn't come in person, he should at least send someone to take a look at the situation.

Xie Yongwei swallowed lightly, and an absurd idea suddenly came to her mind.

Could the two people in front of me be the people from the Tianhong Sect sent by Jiang Mian to spy on the situation?

She frowned tightly. If these two people saw the Tianhong Jue on her, they should be communicating with her. How could it be related to Venerable Longyin?

Thinking of this, Xie Yongwei couldn't help but look up at the expression of Venerable Long Yin.

“Hmm?” Venerable Long Yin, who was being stared at by many people at the same time, seemed to sense something. He raised his voice and looked up coldly, “Why are you looking at me? You two belong to different sects. If you want to say it, then say it. If you don’t want to say it, then forget it. No one here will embarrass you.”

When the Venerable Longyin spoke, Xie Yongxuan quickly followed up with a sentence: "Your Excellency is right. My two brothers, if it is really inconvenient for you to introduce yourself, then forget it."

The two of them looked hesitant and frowned. They exchanged glances and turned to look at Xie Yongwei.

"Miss, could you please talk further?"

Before Xie Yongwei could speak, she was interrupted by a voice from Xie Yongxuan: "My two brothers, this is not appropriate."

"She is an unmarried girl," he placed a hand across Xie Yongwei's face, separating her from the two men, "and she has never had any friendship with you. If you want to ask anything, just ask me. Why do you want to talk to her alone?"

Xie Yongwei clenched her handkerchief tightly. She instinctively felt that something was wrong and a sense of uneasiness surged in her heart for no reason.

The sky gradually darkened. The interior of the bamboo forest was already dark, and now it was even darker than ink.

The captain of the guards at the general's mansion saw that it was late at night and that his master was talking to someone. He thought that he needed a light source, so he took the initiative and ordered his men to pick up dry sticks. He also took out a fire starter from his arms and blew it gently. A flame flickered and lit up.

After the wooden sticks were picked up, the captain of the guards had people wrap wet cotton cloth around them and personally watched them pour oil on them.

The tinder was gently brought closer, and the faint light flickered. One torch was lit, and then the second torch also lit up.

When dozens of torches were lit at the same time, the darkness in the bamboo forest was gradually dispelled, and accompanied by the sound of gurgling water, a peaceful and tranquil scene appeared again.

"Brother," Xie Yongwei took a step forward and looked at Xie Yongxuan in the light of the fire with a serious expression, "I don't think these two brothers have any ill intentions. You and the Venerable are here, so even if I say a few words to them, I think nothing will happen."

Xie Yongxuan frowned.

In fact, he also felt that the two people in front of him had no ill intentions, but the fact that they ignored the two grown men and insisted on talking to the little girl made Xie Yongxuan very confused.

"Awei," Xie Yongxuan pursed her lips and finally asked, "Have you known these two before?"

Xie Yongwei paused, her eyes lowered slightly, neither nodding in agreement nor shaking her head to reject.

Xie Yongxuan understood in her heart. Seeing Ah Wei's expression, she must have acquiesced.

"Then..." Xie Yongxuan didn't know why he felt a little confused. He pulled back the hand in front of A Wei as if he was escaping. "Then you guys go and talk, but you can't go far!"

Xie Yongwei nodded, took a few steps, and heard another sentence.

"Avi, call me immediately if anything goes wrong!"

Xie Yongwei felt a warm feeling in her heart. She turned her head back and smiled, "I know!"

The little girl looked back and smiled, fresh and innocent, like a flower bud that has not yet bloomed in the early morning, but is covered with dew, swaying gently in the wind, exuding a unique fragrance that makes people yearn for it.

Even the captain of the guard, who was usually serious and good at hiding his emotions, could not help but be stunned. He came to his senses after being glared at by Xie Yongxuan. He quickly lowered his head, looked at his nose, his mouth, and his heart, pretending to be a quail.

No one present noticed that when the little girl turned around and smiled, the eyes of Lord Longyin became even deeper.

After Xie Yongxuan glared at the captain of the guards, she subconsciously saw Venerable Long Yin.

Seeing that his face was calm and his eyes were peaceful, Xie Yongxuan breathed a sigh of relief.

But for no apparent reason, he felt a sense of loss again.

My sister is so beautiful. When she turns around and smiles, she is like a unique night pearl in the world, emitting a halo in the dark night. Even the bright moon is inferior to her beauty.

As Awei grows up, Xie Yongxuan feels happy and worried.

Awei is extremely beautiful, and those who come to propose marriage to her in the future will probably have to break down the door of her general's mansion. In addition, their family is prominent, so Awei will definitely marry into a good family in the future.

However, he was also worried that someone was coveting Awei's beauty and had his eyes on the Zhenyuan General's Mansion behind her, so he would deliberately trick her into getting his hands on her and then cruelly play with her feelings, making her deeply sad.

Now seeing that Venerable Longyin had a calm expression, Xie Yongxuan felt another kind of loss in her heart.

He always thought that Awei was very beautiful. In Dayuan, her beauty was unmatched by any other woman.

Such a beautiful woman, even Venerable Longyin doesn't like her?

Xie Yongwei, who was "not liked", was now leading the two men to a secluded place.

This place is just right, as it can be illuminated by torches. It is neither dark nor too bright. It is the perfect place for plotting or having secret talks.

"You came to me," Xie Yongwei took off the Tianhong Jue from her waist, held it in her hand, and raised it in front of them without waiting for the two to speak. "Are you looking for this?"

When the two saw Tian Hongjue, they knelt on one knee and bowed their heads: “We are too late to wait for the savior, Miss Xie has suffered!”

Xie Yongwei tightly grasped the jade pendant in her hand and felt particularly stuffy in her chest.

She heard a voice, it was her own: "You guys, did you see it when I showed the Tianhong Jue this afternoon?"

"Yes!"

"Then..." Xie Yongwei took a deep breath, pressed the Laogong acupoint with her left middle finger, and exhaled slowly, "You, should have informed your young master as well?"

Suddenly, the wind blew at night, blowing the branches and leaves of the bamboo forest rustlingly. The shadows of the leaves were mottled, leaving a pale, broken moon on the soft ground.

The weather is getting hotter, and the atmosphere is particularly stuffy on summer nights.

A cool breeze blew over, making people feel refreshed.

"Thank you, Miss." The two people in front of him lowered their heads. Because the firelight was dim, it was difficult to see their expressions. "We did inform the young master."

The wind was getting stronger, large pieces of bamboo leaves were shaking, and the branches were rising and falling violently. For a moment, the rustling sound was so loud that Xie Yongwei could not hear clearly what the two people were talking about.

She waited patiently, planning to have a good chat with them about Jiang Mian's failure to show up after the storm passed.

The other side of the fire.

"Hmm?" Xie Yongxuan paced back and forth with her hands behind her back, muttering to herself, "Why haven't we finished talking for so long?"

He was worrying about his own thoughts when he was suddenly interrupted by a gentle call.
