C92 Han Bing's Life
Xing Ran's face turned red as he lowered his head, not daring to look at Han Bing. Han Bing also touched the back of his head in embarrassment, feeling a bit awkward when he saw how helpless Xing Ran was.
"Big Brother Han Bing, you, how can you be like this?" Xing Ran complained, but his voice was softer than a mosquito's. Luckily, Han Bing was able to hear him well.
"I'm sorry, Xing Ran, but I was too happy to hold back for a while. But I'm your brother, so it's not too much. " Han Bing said with a thick face.
"Ah, is that so?" Xing Ran had a naïve expression. The blush on his face also receded a little, "Then big brother Han Bing, I will first bring you to the Tower of Dao Seeking!"
"Wait, Starland, right now you are in a critical period of your training, I cannot waste your time. Just let Second Master take me there."
"It's fine, it'll be fine soon. It won't take up too much time." Xing Ran naively said.
However, Han Bing's vision turned black. Was he really going to let Xing Ran bring him there? Then he would be guilty of this.
"Xingran, come here first. I'll tell you." Han Bing thought for a long time and said, "From now on, it will be 10 days later. The two of us will have a duel, and the winner can make the loser do one thing for him." So right now, you have to help me call your second uncle over, and immediately use this time to cultivate and not waste any time, do you understand? "
Hearing that it was an arranged battle, and the bet was actually like this, a pair of star-blue eyes immediately lit up and said, "Alright, alright, alright. I'll go call him now."
As he spoke, he ran outside and shouted towards the sky, "Help! Help! " No matter what, Xing Ran was a cultivator at the seventh level of the Qi Condensation stage. If he shouted at the top of his lungs, the entire Dongfang family would be able to hear him. Furthermore, with the importance that the clan placed on Xingran, once they heard her call for help, they would have to give up and rush over no matter what they were doing.
As expected, before the sound could dissipate, several silhouettes appeared outside of the Stellar Pavilion. Each of them exuded a tyrannical aura, and one could tell that they were all True Core warriors.
"Xin Ran, what's going on? What happened?" Dongfang Lie was the first to arrive at Xing Ran's side, looking him up and down with an anxious expression. At this moment, Xing Ran didn't seem to have been harmed at all. Furthermore, he was in high spirits and had a vigorous aura. Even his mood was very good.
Following that, another five people arrived in front of Xing Ran with anxious expressions on their faces. One of the five people turned out to be the elder who had accused him in front of the clan's gate. Seeing Han Bing not too far away from him, his two sharp eyes pierced through Han Bing like two sharp swords.
"Xingran, is it because that person wants to harm you? Hmph, I knew that he is not a good person. He actually wants to make a move on Miss Xingran. He is simply acting recklessly." As the elder spoke, he was about to attack Han Bing.
But unexpectedly, a crafty smile appeared on his face, and the smile immediately froze on his face. He immediately changed to a frightened expression and said to Dongfang Lie, "Second Uncle, there was a good big rat just now. If it wasn't for Big Brother Han Bing, Second Uncle wouldn't have been able to see Xing Ran. "
As these starry words left his mouth, everyone present had the urge to spit out blood. Mouse, how big was the mouse that could threaten a seventh level Qi Condensation cultivator? Moreover, where did this mouse come from in the Dongfang family?
However, at this time, when Dongfang Lie saw Xing Ran winking at him, he finally understood. This little girl was playing a prank on him again. In the past, Xing Ran often played pranks on some of the disciples. But now, he actually started to play tricks on these elders. He was truly bold.
Under normal circumstances, Eastern Lie would know the role he was about to play. It would be a supporting role, a person who would smooth things over.
"Cough cough. Everyone, since there's nothing else, please go back." Since I have nothing better to do these few days, I shall leave it to me to protect it. " Dongfang Lie cupped his hands and said.
"With Second Elder's protection, we can truly be at ease."
"Starlight, don't forget to shout if you need anything in the future. We will be the first to appear."
"Xingran, you can do it! The family's hopes are all on you!"
Before the elders left, they gave various instructions. It was obvious that they paid a lot of attention to Xing Ran.
"Goodbye, fellow elders." She then turned around and said to Dongfang Lie, "Second Uncle, quickly come in. Big brother Han Bing has something to talk to you about."
Dongfang Lie's vision darkened. "Is this the reason why you shouted for help?"
Xing Ran mischievously smiled, stuck out his tongue and said, "I'm going to cultivate!" After that, he hurriedly ran back into the Stellar Pavilion to continue cultivating.
Han Bing, who had been left alone for a long time, also walked up at this time. He cupped his hands and respectfully said to Dongfang Lie, "Second Master!" Han Bing had a good impression of Dongfang Lie. Ever since he came to the Dongfang family, Dongfang Lie was the only one who gave him the impression of a senior. Furthermore, Han Bing was very impressed by his character and character.
Dongfang Lie waved his hand and said, "There's no one here, so there's no need to be polite. Speak, what do you want to talk to me about? "
Han Bing looked around and confirmed that there was no one around before he said carefully, "Second Master, I want to enter the Tower of Dao Seeking. How should I go about that?"
The moment Dongfang Lie heard the words' Tower of Dao ', his previously relaxed expression immediately turned serious. Ye Zichen grabbed Han Bing's arm and dragged him into the room. After using his spiritual energy to create three layers of soundproof barriers, he continued to look at Han Bing.
"I didn't expect Xingran to believe you so much. She even told you about the Tower of Dao Seeking." Dongfang Lie looked at Han Bing in astonishment and said, "This is good as well. It saves me the trouble of coming over again." "Actually, with your talent, contributions, and loyalty to the clan, you are completely qualified to enter the Tower of Dao Seeking. Even if Xing Ran did not tell you, I would have taken the initiative to look for you."
"The Tower of Dao is a secret of our Dongfang family, you should know how important it is. I hope that you can keep this a secret. Unless the family has an order, you are not allowed to reveal a single word to anyone. " Dongfang Lie said.
"Understood, Second Master. "Then can we go now?" Han Bing asked expectantly.
"What's the hurry? Besides the rules that Starlord knows about, people who aren't from my Eastern family still need my father's permission to enter the tower." Now, I can only bring you there. Whether or not my father agrees will depend on your luck. " Dongfang Lie said.
Wasn't Dongfang Lie's father the grandfather of Xing Ran? He hadn't thought that he would be so strict.
Dongfang Lie brought Han Bing to the center of the family. Along the way, Han Bing couldn't help but ask, "Second Master, I have something that I want to ask you."
"Mm, go ahead."
"Do you still remember three months ago, in the Black Passage Trial of the outer sect disciples, when we first met, you told me that you had been asked to help me. I want to know who was the person who entrusted you with this?" Han Bing asked.
"Didn't you already know this? We have already met." Dongfang Lie asked with some doubt.
"Ah?" When did I see it? " Han Bing was slightly surprised. Back then, she remembered Dongfang Lie saying that he was very afraid of that person. That was why Han Bing had deduced Peng Lei to be the one behind all this, but she had never seen Peng Lei before.
"It's just a matter of the stars."
"Starlight? "Then you said that you were very afraid of that person. How could the stars be so terrifying?" Han Bing asked in confusion.
"That's what you think. You don't know how scary it would be if I didn't do what she said." As Dongfang Lie spoke, he clutched his chest with a frightened expression on his face. Scenes of the past surged into his mind.
He clearly remembered that when he was three years old, he wanted to take Xingran out with him to play. Because he was focused on cultivation and didn't care about it, Xingran burned off half of his hair, making him a laughingstock of the clan. There was also the little white cat that Xing Ran raised when he was seven years old that went missing. He promised Xing Ran, but he didn't get it back for him. In the end, Xing Ran didn't say a word to him for half a year. The most terrifying thing was his first resistance to Starlord's decision a few days ago. In the end, after Starlord had awakened his spirit body, he would spank him in front of many elders and disciples. As the number two in the family, how terrifying was this?
And facing such a naughty and cute little niece, no matter how she treated herself, she had no way of retaliating. That was the most terrifying thing.
However, Han Bing was a bit disappointed. He didn't expect the clue that he was looking for Peng Lei to be cut off just like that.
Dongfang Lie also noticed that something was wrong with Han Bing. He asked, "What's wrong, Han Bing, why do you think this is a bit disappointing?"
"Ah?" Second Master, I, I thought you were asking for help from an elder of mine. I've been separated from him for months now and haven't seen him. " Han Bing said with disappointment.
Only now did Dongfang Lie realize that he didn't know anything about this youth in front of him. Other than his name being Han Bing, he knew nothing about anything else besides his outstanding talent.
"Han Bing, if you trust me, can you tell me about your past? Maybe I can help you find an elder who was lost to you. " Dongfang Lie asked with concern.
Han Bing thought for a while. No matter what, he couldn't tell Dongfang Lie that he was the dragon race's prince, but he could tell Dongfang Lie about everything else. Just because of his concern for him, Han Bing had to tell him some things.
"Actually, I was expelled by a large family. For some reason, I don't know, but I think it's because my talent is too low. They were afraid that I would be expelled because I lost. There was only one elder who followed me out. However, when we were passing by the West East City, he left me at the East City Inn. He left me alone and disappeared without a trace. I believe he did it because I was too dependent on him, not because he didn't want me. When we first met, I heard you say that you were entrusted by someone, and that you were very afraid of that person. I guessed that it was my elder, because his strength was enough to scare the entire people of the West East City. But, it's not. " As Han Bing said this, his tone became more and more desolate. The sorrowful feelings he had hidden deep within his heart, were instantly revealed.
Dongfang Lie's mouth was wide open in shock as well. Such a talent was actually disregarded by the family. Han Bing's family was just too tyrannical. But no matter who heard what Han Bing said, they would still feel a tinge of sympathy. For such a young child to be abandoned by his own family, it was indeed too cruel.
"Don't worry, Han Bing, I will do my best to help you find that elder of yours. Moreover, I will help you keep your identity a secret." Dongfang Lie said solemnly.
As the two were talking, Han Bing raised his head and saw the majestic pagoda in front of them.
