Chapter 1428: Chapter 1425: Huyue’s Little Secrets! (2nd Update)
After hearing Wei Qingxiao’s words, Xue An chuckled lightly, "You’re not wrong. This matter is indeed quite peculiar!"
"Then, tell me, what should we do now?" Wei Qingxiao bit her lip. "I can pretend I never received this message, and then we can focus on quickly curing Cang’er!"
Xue An shook his head, "You’re mistaken!"
"Hmm?"
"What do you think needs to be done to cure your brother’s illness? To find a picturesque and tranquil blessed land for recuperation? You’re mistaken. It might bring some improvement, but it won’t address the root cause!"
Xue An raised his head and quietly looked at Wei Qingxiao. "Because the crux of everything lies within your family! To truly cure your brother, you not only cannot retreat, but you must actively return home!"
"But..." Wei Qingxiao still hesitated.
Xue An waved his hand, "I understand your concerns. But don’t you think this is a test for your brother? All paths must eventually be tread by him on his own! Moreover..."
Xue An smiled brightly, though his eyes were filled with piercing coldness. "I’ll accompany you siblings back to your family!"
Wei Qingxiao quietly stared at Xue An for a long while before finally taking a deep breath and nodding slowly. "Alright! I understand!"
With that, she turned and left.
Watching her departing figure, Xue An smiled faintly, "Yan’er!"
"Hmm?"
"Pack up. We’re leaving!"
"Alright!"
Immediately, An Yan used her "Little Stick Technique," coercing the mischievous little troublemakers Xiang Xiang and Nian Nian to comply. After reluctantly bidding farewell to Wei Haocang, they obediently headed back to the Magic Treasures Pavilion to change their clothes.
Wei Haocang, though visibly unwilling, inexplicably harbored both respect and fear for An Yan. Without a fuss, he followed the Wei family’s attendants and departed.
Soon, the small courtyard returned to a state of tranquility.
However, Hu Ying didn’t leave. Instead, with great interest, she watched Wei Haocang’s retreating figure until he completely disappeared beyond the courtyard gate. Only then did she withdraw her gaze, lightly chuckling.
"Brother Xue, that guy... isn’t ordinary!"
As the princess of the Fox Clan, Hu Ying’s cultivation level wasn’t very high, but her discerning eye was unparalleled.
She could sense that the seemingly naive and foolish Wei Haocang wasn’t as simple as he appeared.
Xue An also laughed, "Indeed! He is... not ordinary at all!"
Hu Ying looked at Xue An’s smile and suddenly said, "Brother Xue!"
"Hmm?"
"Are you planning to kill someone next?"
"Why do you say that?"
"Because my brother told me that whenever you smile but your eyes show no joy, it means someone’s about to have bad luck! Is that true?"
Xue An burst into laughter, raising a hand to pinch Hu Ying’s cheek. "You cheeky little rascal!"
"Hehe!" Hu Ying giggled innocently.
"Speaking of which, you haven’t seen your brother in ages, right? Don’t you miss him?"
Hu Ying pondered for a moment and then silently nodded, "A little!"
"Once we’ve finished handling matters in the Ghost Realm, I’ll take you back home!"
"No!" Hu Ying shook her head decisively and firmly declared, "I suddenly don’t miss him anymore. A lazy and untidy brother like him—why should I miss him?"
Xue An couldn’t help but laugh and cry at her response. "I know your brother is lazy, but how is he untidy?"
"Ahem, Brother Xue, you don’t know. Back when my brother was still an apprentice, training with the Great Elder in the Qingqiu Fox Country, he..."
Hu Ying began animatedly narrating Hu Ye’s embarrassing tales. Even Xue An was hearing these for the first time, and the more he listened, the wider his grin grew.
"Kid, next time I see you, just based on these stories, you’ll have to obediently call me Big Brother!"
Meanwhile.
In a world far away from the Ghost Realm, Hu Ye sat serenely under a flowering tree, chatting and laughing with several women.
He was in high spirits, and the women listened with rapt attention, their faces full of admiration.
Yet, at the peak of his storytelling, Hu Ye suddenly felt an unbearable itch in his nose and let out several consecutive sneezes.
In an instant, the carefully cultivated celestial aura vanished completely.
Hu Ye habitually wiped his nose with his sleeve, murmuring to himself. What’s going on?
Why, sitting here perfectly fine, did I suddenly start sneezing?
Looking up, Hu Ye smiled and said, "Let’s continue... huh? Wait. Where is everyone? Flower Demon sisters, where did you go?"
Standing up, Hu Ye looked around, confused. But no trace of the Flower Demons could be found.
He stomped his foot in frustration, "Of all times to sneeze, why now?! Such bad timing!"
Saying so, he wiped his nose again and casually reached out to rub against the nearby flowering tree.
But at that moment, the once-blooming flower tree instantly withdrew all its blossoms, uprooted itself at lightning speed, and without even donning its "shoes," dashed away furiously, roots flailing.
Alone, Hu Ye froze in place, staring blankly at the retreating flower tree. Then he looked down at the massive pit left behind.
"What the heck..." With a face full of gloom, Hu Ye wiped his hands on his robe and turned to leave dejectedly.
Of course, this was entirely unknown to Hu Ying! Even if she knew, she wouldn’t care!
After all, as a child, the somewhat germaphobic Hu Ying had been thoroughly "tormented" by her slovenly brother Hu Ye.
This was one of the reasons Hu Ying embarked on the path of scheming against her brother, never looking back.
The next day marked the end of the three-day deadline!
As morning arrived, Xue An had just stepped out of his room when Luo Jian and Ren Tianqi were already waiting in the courtyard.
Judging by the dew on their clothes, they seemed to have been waiting for quite some time. Yet, despite this, neither showed any signs of fatigue, remaining upright and alert.
When Xue An stepped out, the two simultaneously bowed in greeting.
"Greetings, Sir!"
Xue An smiled faintly, "It seems your task has been completed!"
Luo Jian raised his head, his face aglow with excitement. "Indeed, Sir! Brother Tianqi and I, using the Sword Intent you granted us, have subdued all the prominent families in the depths of the Ghost Realm!"
As he spoke, the two respectfully presented swords with both hands.
Xue An glanced at the two swords and said indifferently, "Very well, I’ll gift these swords to you."
The two trembled slightly, their faces lighting up with excitement.
"Thank you, Sir!"
Xue An walked to the stone table in the courtyard and sat down before speaking leisurely. "You should understand that, although the depths of the Ghost Realm have temporarily been pacified, genuinely mastering them will take a long time. This will depend on your individual abilities."
"Understood!" Of course, the two were well aware of this.
To subdue all the prominent families within only three days was already an unimaginable achievement.
So assuming this alone could earn the full allegiance of these families was pure fantasy.
"As long as you understand. These swords contain my Sword Intent, which should provide support for up to three strikes. Treasure them wisely!"
"Rest assured, Sir. The two of us will spare no effort and live up to your expectations!" Luo Jian said respectfully.
