CHAPTER TWENTY-THREE Hard work

The spirit child angrily glared at Xiao Huo and snappily said, "Little kitty, stop quibbling. You are lying! Just a moment ago, it was unknown who even ran faster than a rabbit, but now, they actually brazenly said that the Jade-Eyed Demon had fled.

"F * ck!" Xiao Huo roared angrily, "If you don't believe me, then ask the boss. See if I'm lying. Did I scare away the Jade-eyed Demon Beast?"

"Brother Xiao, did little kitty really chase away the Jade-Eyed Demon?"

Xiao Jianfeng chuckled and said, "Yes!"

"Did you hear that, Ling'er!" Xiao Huo looked extremely arrogant, and snorted: "I have already said, This Tiger King is the one and only in the world! How could a small Jade-Eyed Demon be worthy of mention? If it wasn't for it escaping fast, I would definitely be able to kill it within ten rounds. "

The spirit child curled his lips and grimaced, "Enough, stop being so shameless." It must be that the Jade-eyed Demon Beast did not find the flaw in the Universe Ruyi Ring, otherwise it would have escaped you. "

Xiao Huo laughed out loud, "How could this Tiger King's Universe Fulfillment Realm be so easily broken? Just by relying on the Jade-Eyed Demon's foolishness, it would be utterly impossible to find a flaw. "

Xiao Jian Feng looked at Xiao Huo and started to bicker with the spirit child. He could only shake his head and smile helplessly. Actually, the matter of the Jade-eyed Demon Beast being scared off by Xiao Huo was entirely due to him having Xiao Huo say this.

Because Qing'er was too smart. If they were to say that the Jade-Eyed Demon left by itself after their conversation, Qing'er would surely ask him what he had talked about. One mistake could very well leak out, otherwise the secret of them entering the immortal tomb would be known by Ke Qing Er.

Xiao Jianfeng did not want others to know that he, Xiao Huo and the Spirit Child had entered the immortal tomb. After all, there were too many things involved.

However, Qing Er saw that Xiao Jian Feng had lowered his head without saying a word, so she went forward slightly and softly asked, "Junior brother Xiao, why are you so worried? Why aren't you saying anything? "

Xiao Jianfeng smelled a sweet fragrance and heard Qing Er's melodious voice. He immediately raised his head and smiled, "It's nothing. I just don't want to part with Senior Qing Er right now."

Qing Er glanced at Xiao Jian Feng, and a smile that was like a blossoming flower in spring covered her face. She exhaled sweetly like an orchid, and said, "I thought it was something important! "So it's because I'm worried."

Xiao Jianfeng nodded his head and smiled, "Senior Qing'Er, do you think I have anything to worry about?"

However, Qing Er smiled and said, "How could I know why you're worried about such a small matter? I didn't expect that it was for such a small matter."

"A small matter?" Xiao Jianfeng smiled and shook his head, "To Senior Qing'Er, this is a small matter, but to me, it is a huge matter! We don't know when or how long it will be before we meet again, so how can this be a small matter? "

However, Qing'Er's heart warmed when she saw how serious Xiao Jian Feng was. She never would have thought that the person in front of her was a person who was madly hateful to the extreme. But she never would have thought that it was him who saved her and even gave her a high quality spirit sword. She never would have thought that things would turn out like this.

Now that they were going to part, how could he not be moved? However, Qing'Er calmly looked at Xiao Jianfeng. He had thick eyebrows and big eyes, a high nose bridge, and an exquisite face without any flaws. He was both handsome and domineering. He could be said to be just like a beautiful man.

Xiao Jianfeng felt a little uncomfortable under Ke Qing Er's affectionate gaze. With a blush on his face, he asked softly, "Senior Sister Qing Er, why are you looking at me like that?"

However, Qing'Er's face turned red when she saw Xiao Jian Feng. She smiled sweetly and said, "Delete senior sister and call me Qing'Er from now on."

"Qing'er!" Xiao Jianfeng happily shouted out these two words.

Qing Er gently nodded her head and a rosy glow appeared on her beautiful face. She said gently, "Although I can't bear to part with you, this parting is for the next time we meet. I promise you, I will definitely come to the Immortal Sword Pavilion to find you. "

"Really?" Xiao Jianfeng could not believe his ears.

However, Qing'er's face was as red as a ripe apple. She snorted and said, "Silly hat, of course it's real."

"Great, great!" Xiao Jianfeng held onto Ke Qing Er's hand happily. He was so excited that he didn't know what to say.

When Xiao Huo and the Spirit Child saw how Xiao Jian Feng was acting, they both shook their heads and said, "A man in love is so cute and foolish!"

Departure could be said to be the most difficult thing to part with in the world, but sometimes even if one was reluctant to part with it, they still had to part ways eventually. No one could change the way of the world. They only wished to meet again in the future. Just like before, there was a smile on their faces, and their eyes were filled with deep care and concern.

After Xiao Jianfeng bid farewell to Ke Qing Er, he brought Xiao Huo and the spirit child with him as they headed towards the direction of the Immortal Sword Pavilion. Along the way, one could say that it was neither fast nor slow. Occasionally, when they encountered a beautiful scenery, they would take a stroll. It took them over half a month to reach the foot of the mountain of the Divine Sword Pavilion.

In the early morning, a warm ray of sunlight shone down from the dense foliage of the forest. White spots fell on the ground one by one, giving off white light as if they were broken lenses.

He raised his head and looked up at the towering mountain. Clouds were drifting along the mountainside. The cries of cranes and beasts could be heard. It was as if this place was blessed by the heavens.

When Xiao Jianfeng saw this scene, he could not help but sigh, "I'm back?" After saying that, she looked at the spirit child and lovingly said, "Ling'er."

"What is it big brother Xiao?" The spirit child blinked his large eyes as he looked at Xiao Jian Feng.

"We're about to reach the Immortal Sword Pavilion. In order to not cause any trouble, you should return to the Spirit Sword Sect."

When the spirit child heard that Xiao Jian Feng would allow him to enter the Spirit Sword Sect, she immediately pouted with dissatisfaction and said: "It wasn't easy to get to the Immortal Sword Pavilion, I still haven't seen it. Brother Xiao, please let me enter the Spirit Sword Sect. Brother Xiao, do you know how boring it is to be in a spirit sword? "

Xiao Jianfeng smiled and rubbed the forehead of the spirit child as he consoled him, "I promise you that once I get to my residence, I will immediately release you, okay?"

The spirit child pouted and nodded slightly: "Alright! "Remember to release me when you get to the Pill Sect."

Seeing that the spirit sword had appeared, the spirit child slapped Xiao Huo's head. Then, with a happy chuckle, he turned into a golden ray of light and merged into the spirit sword.

"Howl, howl!" Xiao Huo felt dizzy from being hit by the spirit child. He shouted angrily, "Death spirit, I'll deal with you later!" After that, he looked at Xiao Jianfeng and said, "Boss, I still have things to take care of. I won't be accompanying you up the mountain." After he finished speaking, he turned into a streak of light and flew towards the back of the mountain without waiting for Xiao Jian Feng to speak.

Xiao Jianfeng looked in the direction Xiao Huo fled in and his face revealed a puzzled expression. He said softly, "Xiao Huo, why did this fellow come to the back of the mountain as soon as he arrived at the Immortal Sword Pavilion? What the hell was he doing? "It seems like there are some secrets behind this mountain. Some day, I must go and investigate and see what this darned cat is up to."

The Immortal Sword Pavilion seemed very peaceful in the early morning. As they walked on the rugged mountain roads, they would occasionally run into one or two outer court disciples who cleaned the mountain roads.

After walking for around half an hour, they finally arrived at the trident. On the giant signboard, there were three words written in bold and powerful characters: "Immortal Sword Pavilion".

The three paths led to the sword faction, Weapon Sect, and Pill Sect respectively. Xiao Jianfeng did not head straight for the Pill Sect. It had already been a month since he left the Divine Sword Pavilion, so Brother Wei must be very worried. It hadn't been easy for him to return. He had to report his safety to his only good friend in the Immortal Sword Pavilion.

When Xiao Jianfeng arrived at the residence of the Heavenly Dipper Sword, he saw a disciple walking out of the courtyard. The disciple had an ugly expression on his face. He stopped him and asked: "Is Brother Wei here?"

The moment the Artifact Sect disciple saw the token at Xiao Jian Feng's waist, he immediately bowed respectfully and said, "Senior Brother Wei is currently in the courtyard. However, he has been in a bad mood recently. Senior Brother, you must be careful."

Xiao Jianfeng slightly smiled, indicating that he could leave and walked in. He saw Wei Tiaoying busy with something in the yard. Looking at the familiar back view, he looked slightly aged. Xiao Jianfeng was clearly a bit excited as he softly said, "Senior Brother Wei."

When Wei Tiaoying heard someone call him, he didn't even turn his head and said snappily, "Didn't I tell you to go out and prepare something? Why did you come back?"

After Wei Tiaoying finished this sentence, there was no more sound coming from behind him. Immediately, he felt angry and turned around to face the incoming person. However, when his gaze landed on the person behind him, it was as if he had been struck by lightning. His entire body trembled as he stood there blankly. He didn't say anything as he walked forward and hugged her tightly.

At this moment, the two of them said nothing. Xiao Jian Feng could feel Wei Tian Ying's body trembling slightly. He could not help but feel moved in his heart.

No one knew how long Wei Tian Ying had been here, but he let go of Xiao Jian Feng and punched him in the chest. His eyes reddened as he scolded, "Brat, you actually knew how to come back! I thought you'd die in the Immortal Graveyard. If I had known that you would be back so soon, I would have eaten and slept soundly every day. "

Xiao Jianfeng pretended to be in extreme pain as he clutched his chest, "If I had known earlier that you would hit me the moment we met, I wouldn't have returned."

Wei Tiaoying laughed: "Stinking brat! I haven't seen you in a month and yet you're still so talkative. "

Xiao Jian Feng looked at the slightly haggard Wei Tian Ying and could not help but feel guilty. From Wei Tiaoying's current state, it seemed that he hadn't been able to eat or sleep well in the past month and had been worried about his safety the entire time. In just a month's time, Wei Tiaoying seemed to have lost a lot of weight.

Xiao Jianfeng lightly patted Wei Tiaoying's shoulder and said guiltily, "Thank you for your trouble, Senior Wei."
