"I'm sorry."

When this sentence fell into Xi Qing's ears, her eyes revealed deep despair.

"Ms. Fang is not at our Yunhe Valley, but at the Alliance base of our Survivor Alliance." Ren Junfei, the person in charge of Yunhe Valley, continued, "When I learned that you were looking for her, I sent personnel to the Alliance base to notify her of her arrival."

"That's good, that's good." Xi Qing cried with joy, covering his face with his hands, tears falling from his fingers.

Lin Chenxing smiled helplessly, patted Xi Qing on the back, and said, "Okay, okay, it's such a happy thing, so don't cry. Look, when you cry, people will be embarrassed to continue talking."

Xi Qing rolled her eyes at Lin Chenxing, wiped away her tears, and looked at Ren Junfei with a smile. Her smile was brighter than before. She said, "I made you laugh. You can discuss the following matters with several of our other members. I'll go out to ease my mood first." After that, she stood up and left the conference room.

Lin Chenxing was very pleased to see Xi Qing so happy, but he had to stay in the venue for the rest of the discussion.

The meeting went very quickly. During the meeting, Ren Junfei expressed to Lin Chenxing that it was not up to them to decide whether to merge and join Xingyan Base, but it was up to the Alliance to decide.

The name of this Alliance is very simple, it is the Survivor Alliance mentioned by Ren Junfei before.

The entire Alliance is composed of more than ten small gathering places with less than 100,000 people, large and small. Only one gathering place has one Primary War God, but they also formed this Primary War God with this Primary War God as the core. Alliance cooperates in offense and defense, with Alliance Council as the center of decision-making. It is for this reason that Fang Hexian, the mother of Xi Qing, was transferred to work at Alliance Council.

After Lin Chenxing learned this, he also knew that this meeting was impossible to negotiate, so he left the remaining five Advanced Battle General to accompany him to learn more about the situation, and he got up and walked out of the conference room.

Outside the conference room, in a small garden, Xi Qing was sitting on a stone bench, looking up at the sky with expectation on his face.

Lin Chenxing quietly walked over and stood behind Xi Qing. Looking at her, he couldn't help but reach out with his right hand, rubbed Xi Qing's head a few times and said, "Little girl, what are you thinking about? You are so lost in thought."

Xi Qing was awakened by his actions, and slapped Lin Chenxing's hand down hard, saying, "What little girl, you are only a few years older than me. Besides, have you forgotten that I helped you with your rehabilitation when you first woke up? I also guided your training. Do you want to call me Teacher Xi? What, are you ready?"

Lin Chenxing nodded and said with a smile, "It's better to leave early. I have been standing behind you for a long time, just watching you smiling stupidly. If I were a monster, you would be dead."

Xi Qing was a little unconvinced, and looked at Lin Chenxing in confusion, then glanced at the conference room where the door was still closed, and said angrily, "You lied, can you please make a draft? There is obviously still a meeting over there in the conference room, why did you run out like this? It's so irresponsible."

Lin Chenxing stretched out his hand again, once again towards Xi Qing's head.

Xi Qing watched Lin Chenxing want to rub his head again, and immediately stood up, dodged Lin Chenxing's hand, then slapped it down again, and said, "You are like this, can you still talk properly?"

Lin Chenxing spread his hands and said, "For me, the meeting is over. Anyway, before your mother comes, it is impossible to reach an agreement on the merger."

"Why does it involve my mother?"

"Let's put it this way, on the one hand, they also want to confirm whether you are really your mother's daughter. On the other hand, they have formed a Alliance. When your mother comes, she must have come with a few people in the Alliance who have the actual right to speak. Only then can the discussion continue."

"That's it." Xi Qing nodded thoughtfully.

Seeing that Lin Chenxing was still staying here, Xi Qing walked around the back of Lin Chenxing, pressed his shoulders with both hands, and pushed him out of the small courtyard. "Okay, go ahead and do whatever you need to do, let me be quiet here."

Lin Chenxing did not resist, but waved his hand and walked out of the guest house where they were, and began to wander around the gathering place, followed by several Martial Artist from the gathering place, in order to protect his safety.

Lin Chenxing didn't care about this at all. He first exchanged these people for some uniform coins used in their gathering place, started purchasing and tasting, and also started chatting with many vendors.

Three or four hours passed in a flash, and the team from the Alliance finally arrived at Yunhe Valley.

In Yunhe Valley's team, Xi Qing immediately saw the woman who was also looking around, her mother Fang Hexian.

When mother and daughter met, they were extremely "jealous", and their tears began to flow uncontrollably.

Fang Hexian walked in front of Xi Qing in three steps and two steps. He stretched out his hands and wanted to touch his daughter's cheek, but he didn't dare to touch it.

Xi Qing just burst into tears without making any move.

The CEO from the Alliance made a gesture to Lin Chenxing and others, and then led the team to the administrative building located in the center of the gathering place.

Everyone left silently, they were too embarrassed to disturb the mother-daughter reunion.

Lin Chenxing arranged for Battle General, the only female in the team, to stay with Xi Qing, and then left quickly.

Outside the venue, the mother and daughter gradually recovered. They hugged each other tightly until Fang Hexian felt the armor on Xi Qing's body making her panic. Then they let go and started a normal conversation.

"Xiaoqing, you have suffered a lot during this time." Touching the scars left on Xi Qing's hand, Fang Hexian couldn't help but tremble in his heart.

Xi Qing just looked at her mother with a smile and said, "It's okay, Mom. You see, your daughter is very strong now, War God."

Fang Hexian forced a smile and said, "You are very strong, but the current world means that you have to go to the battlefield. The battlefield is so dangerous. As a mother, I really can't bear to let you go."

Xi Qing didn't answer. The battlefield is indeed dangerous, but if they don't go there, where will the peace now come from.

"By the way, Xiaoqing. Have you dated anyone in the past few years?" Fang Hexian started asking questions that are commonly used by normal parents.

Xi Qing looked at her mother speechlessly. She had just met her, and she actually started asking questions like this, saying, "Mom, how can I have time to talk about a partner in such a situation these past few years? Also, don't introduce me to your high-quality resources, I don't want to talk about it now."

Fang Hexian rolled his eyes at his daughter and said, "If you don't introduce me, I won't introduce you. I'm thinking that in this precarious life now, if you find a suitable partner, wouldn't it be great for the two of you to support each other?"

"Hey, by the way." Fang Hexian seemed to remember something, grabbed his daughter's hand, and asked, "As for the young man who was with you before, he seems to take good care of you, tell me what's going on?"

Xi Qing looked up to the sky and sighed, not wanting to speak at all.

At this time, the woman Advanced Battle General who was standing aside to accompany Xi Qing burst out laughing. Fang Hexian also found a breakthrough and quickly asked this person, "Hey, girl, can you tell me about the young man standing in the middle of you just now, the young man on the left side of my girl?"

The woman Battle General smiled and said, "At that time, our Xingyan Base's Lin Chenxing Lin War God was also the strongest one in our base. But speaking of partners, Xi War God was quite suitable, and both of them were still single. Also, the two of them were considered to be already..."

Xi Qing blushed slightly, interrupted quickly, and shouted, "Xiao Mo, don't talk about these invisible things, my mother will believe it."
