Chapter 421-1: Let the frog at the bottom of the well meet the dragon of Nine Heavens, That young existence (1)
The Shen Clan was very large and covered a vast area. Some mountain peaks were hidden, and the spiritual waterfalls could be seen hanging down.
At this moment, in a rather quiet courtyard.
A young man with long hair, dressed in a long gown with a refined and natural face was bending over to water the flowers and plants in front of him.
He looked very young, with decent features, only in his twenties.
Although there was no fluctuation on his body, his gestures seemed to be integrated with the surrounding environment.
Many spiritual birds descended because of his actions and colorful b.u.t.terflies fluttered as they stopped on the flowers and plants in the courtyard.
"Second Elder, needless to say, I will naturally leave the Shen Clan when the time comes, but not now."
The young man turned his back to an old man in front of the courtyard and his voice was calm and natural. There was no change because the person behind him was the Second Elder of the Shen Clan.
He looked very serious, watering every flower and plant, at the same time bending over to pick up some of the dead leaves.
It seemed that the people behind him were not as important as the flowers and plants in front of him.
The Second Elder of the Shen Clan was the old man in the palace who insisted on letting Shen Xian"er break up this marriage contract.
He had a sullen face and thin lips, and when he heard these words, he seemed very sullen.
"Li Xiu, don"t be ignorant. How did you say it was good? Do you actually regret it now?"
"Has my Shen Clan ever wronged you over the years? Your spiritual sea is broken, who brought you many elixirs? And who brought you immortal fruit?"
The young man named Li Xiu shook his head slightly when he heard the words, "I wasn’t the one to make that promise. You guys were the one and I already said it, when the time comes, I will leave the Shen Clan. You can"t keep me if you want."
"I didn"t ask you guys to repair my broken spirit sea. At the time, there was no need to waste time on me, but you guys didn"t believe me."
"And if it wasn"t for me back then, Shen Xian"er"s father and grandfather would have died long ago. I am their savior. Is this how your Shen Clan treats saviors?"
He smiled lightly in a natural but a little mocking tone as if he was talking about a trivial matter like eating and drinking. But this contemptuous att.i.tude made the Second Elder of the Shen Clan even angrier.
"Stop talking nonsense."
He said with a gloomy expression, "You must annul this engagement. How can a crippled person like you, of unknown origin, be worthy of the sweet daughter of my Shen Clan?"
"Don"t be delusional, Xian"er will not marry you. Leave the Shen Clan if you"re smart, and we can still get along well."
"Even if your mysterious Master shows up, the old man will say the same thing now and won"t change it."
He knew that Li Xiu"s mysterious Master was very powerful. He was even able to rescue Shen Xian"er"s father and grandfather from there.
And according to what the two of them said afterward Li Xiu"s Master broke the chaotic laws of the Boundary Monument with a wave of his hand.
This method could only be done at least above the Supreme Realm, so they planned to be good friends.
And this was also the reason why many Elders of the Shen clan were now opposing this. After all, although the mysterious Master of Li Xiu had not appeared in the past three years, who knew whether he was alive or dead?
A cultivator who surpa.s.sed the Supreme Realm was almost standing at the peak in the Heavenly Lan Realm.
Who would dare to offend him?
Hearing this, Li Xiu just smiled lightly, as if he still didn"t care, and said, "I said it all, I don"t have a Master. And if Shen Xian"er wants to ruin the original marriage contract, you can ask her to tell me in person."
"Perhaps in your eyes, Shen Xian"er"s reputation is dazzling, but in my opinion it"s nothing more than that. If it wasn"t for her grandfather"s begging, do you think I would agree?"
He was telling the truth, how could Shen Xian"er be worth his attention?
It was just that the other party didn"t even see each other and wanted to unilaterally tear up the marriage contract, which made him feel uncomfortable.
Since when was he reduced to the point of having his promise torn up by someone withdrawing from his marriage?
"What an arrogant tone! Since you said so, then I"ll let Xian"er come over and let her say this in front of you."
The Second Elder of the Shen Clan laughed at Li Xiu"s anger. He really thought that if there was an Old Monster master behind him, he could ignore everyone.
Hearing this, Li Xiu just glanced at him lightly and then continued to bend over to pour water, very leisurely and indifferently.
The Second Elder of the Shen Clan snorted coldly and then strode away from the place, but when he was outside the courtyard, a very simple communication talisman suddenly lit up in his arms.
Seeing this scene, his complexion changed, becoming extremely cautious, even a little nervous and trembling and then he took out the communication talisman.
"What?"
"That… young existence, he actually wants to come to Heavenly Lan Realm."
Seeing the contents of the communication talisman, the Second Elder of the Shen Clan was stunned for a moment. He was extremely shocked and even his words were trembling with excitement. It was difficult for him to keep calm.
The communication talisman in his hand was almost unsteady and was about to fall to the ground. It could be said that his appearance was vastly different from the one he had with Li Xiu.
Seeing his appearance, Li Xiu raised his brows slightly, as if surprised.
The Second Elder of the Shen Clan was chaotic, he still understood what had happened that would make him so respectful that he even trembled slightly.
"Young existence?"
He heard the words in the words of the Second Elder of the Shen Clan and frowned slightly, before pondering carefully. He had some guesses in his heart, but he didn"t care.
"The frog at the bottom of the well doesn"t know how high the sky is, this time I will let you see what is called the True Dragon of Nine Heavens."
The Second Elder of the Shen Clan sneered, glanced at Li Xiu, and then left in a hurry, intending to tell the rest of the clan about this and preparing everyone to receive him.
Many people didn"t actually know that some time ago, he had already come into contact with people from the Upper Realm.
In the beginning, he learned that a certain powerful and unparalleled young existence from that family was looking for someone with the surname Gu.
Taking this opportunity, he established a relationship with the Upper Realm.
Now he suddenly got the news that the young existence was coming to the Heavenly Lan Realm.
This made his heart shake, and he quickly guessed that its purpose should be related to Gu Xian"er, so he did not dare to neglect it and hurriedly went to discuss it with many elders.
Although Shen Xian"er"s parents had some grudges against that one because of what happened in the past, no matter what, the blood of that family was flowing into their bodies.
This was also a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for the Shen Clan.
……
At the same time, in the valley, there was a misty valley with immortal mist and colorful clouds.
The stones flickered with precious light as strands of purple light rose up from all over the place, like a fairyland.
Shen"s mother, Gu"s father, and Shen Xian"er were still expressing their dissatisfaction with Gu Changge from the past.
"Xian"er, don"t make excuses for him." Mother Shen looked at her distressed.
Gu Xian"er"s expression was cold, listening to what Mother Shen said, she felt helpless and couldn"t help explaining,
"Father and mother, you have all misunderstood. Gu Changge is really not to blame for what happened back then. Now he is doing his best to compensate me."
"I"m very good in the Gu family, and the clan Elders are very good to me. Some time ago, an ancestor of our line came out, and almost leveled the Sea King Palace…"
"Actually, you don"t have to. The clan Elders miss you very much."
Hearing this, Mother Shen shook her head and sighed, "Xian"er has really suffered for all these years, I know you are saying this because you want to take care of your Clan, how could such a big hatred at the beginning be resolved in a few words? "
In her opinion, if Gu Xian"er didn"t make concessions, how could Gu Changge let her go so easily?
How could it be so easy to recall the exiled clansmen back into the clan and restore their status?
The pain of digging bones, how heart-wrenching was this?
"Although we haven"t been back to the clan these years, we still know some things. Gu Changge promised to take back the clan Elders because he wanted to become the Young Master of the Gu family."
"If not, would he be so kind?"
Father Gu also spoke at this moment, his fists clenched tightly, hating his own powerlessness.
How old was Gu Xian"er when he dug out her Dao bone? No matter how much Gu Changge explained, he couldn"t cover up this cruel fact.
"Mother, father… You…"
Gu Xian"er didn"t know how to explain it now and felt a little uncomfortable.
She also knew that her parents cared about her, but she didn"t want her parents to misunderstand Gu Changge so deeply. But what happened back then was related to Gu Changge"s secret, and she couldn"t explain it well.
She had already told them what happened between this time and Gu Changge, but they still maintained an att.i.tude of disbelief.
"Sister, you don"t need to say more. It"s good for you to return to the Shen Clan now. Our family of four will always be together."
Shen Xian"er spoke softly, under the influence of her eyes and ears since she was a child. She also had an inexplicable hostility towards Gu Changge, who she had never seen before.
"You are still young, and there are some things you don"t understand."
Gu Xian"er"s tone was slightly helpless. She would say this almost every day during this time, but it was of no use.
Her parents" att.i.tude towards Gu Changge was deeply ingrained, and it would be really difficult to change it.
