Xiao Xun'er: Would It Be Bad to Forgive Brother Xiao Yan So Easily?
The outskirts of Peace Town.
Xiao Xun'er followed the female disciples of the Outer Academy and soon saw the entrance to Peace Town in the distance.
There were quite a few people at the entrance, with law enforcement teams coming and going, registering those entering the Black-Corner Region.
However, among so many people, Xiao Xun'er found her gaze unconsciously drawn to a tall and straight figure standing still.
The figure was dressed in a neat black robe, with his hair loose. Even with a mask featuring a flame pattern, one could still imagine that beneath the mask was the face of a handsome young nobleman.
Xiao Xun'er subconsciously quickened her pace, but her smile slowly faded.
Just then, the female disciple from the Outer Academy who had led the way spoke up, "It's her, Xun'er Sister Xun'er, he's the one who's looking for you."
Xiao Xun'er nodded and had already silently overtaken her, arriving at the entrance first.
She looked at the young man before her, her eyes filled with an unyielding longing, but outwardly she displayed a detached gaze that could be described as indifferent.
Xiao Yan had been waiting at the entrance of Peace Town for a long time.
Because entering Peace Town required consuming a pill prepared by the Jia Nan Academy, and she didn't want to take it or force her way in and cause trouble for the Jia Nan Academy, she specifically used a pill as a delivery fee to hire a female disciple from the Enforcement Team to help her convey a message.
He gazed in the direction of the Jia Nan Academy, and finally, the familiar, beautiful face that often appeared in his memories came into view.
He opened his mouth, about to call out affectionately, when he saw Xiao Xun'er's cold and distant gaze.
His smile gradually faded, and a hint of sorrow appeared between his brows.
Ling Ying left him a few months ago, so it's impossible for him not to tell Xiao Xun'er about his affair with Medusa.
In the original story, he was forced to have a deep relationship with Medusa, and they even had a child together. Xiao Xun'er was extremely jealous and became much colder towards him when he joined the Ancient Clan.
Now, he Medusa have been actively engaging in intimate interactions on multiple occasions, without any unavoidable entanglements between them. Xiao Xun'er's feelings can be imagined.
"Xun'er... it's been a long time." Xiao Yan spoke slowly.
Xiao Xun'er nodded calmly, avoiding Xiao Yan's eyes, seemingly intentionally turning her gaze away.
"Xiao Yan... Brother Xiao Yan," she still addressed him, "May I ask what brings you here to see Xun'er?"
"Of course I'm here to fulfill my promise. I said I would come to find Xun'er, how could I go back on my word?" Xiao Yan said.
Xiao Xun'er bit her lip, suppressing the bitterness in her heart, and calmly said, "Since Brother Xiao Yan already has a beloved woman and Queen Medusa by his side, why should he still keep his promise to Xun'er?"
Xiao Yan understood Xiao Xun'er's jealousy perfectly well, but he really had no way to argue against it, since it was all true.
"Xun'er... I'm sorry."
Xiao Xun'er's eyes welled up with tears. She wanted to question Xiao Yan: why didn't he defend himself? Why didn't he explain? Even if he had just lied to her... she would have believed him.
"Xun'er, after leaving the Xiao Clan, I went through a lot. Back then, I cooperated with Queen Medusa for the sake of the Heavenly Flames, helping her to evolve her bloodline."
Unexpectedly, after evolving, she became somewhat out of control and forced herself on me...
You know my personality; I won't abandon her after something like this happened. I will definitely take on this responsibility, and I will be with her in the future.
Xun'er, I don't ask you to let go of your resentment. You can stay away from me if you want.
I just want to tell you what really happened; you have the right to know.
Xiao Xun'er stood there, stunned, her eyes glazed over, only one thought echoing in her mind, "Brother Xiao Yan hasn't fallen for someone else... He's just too responsible, wanting to shoulder his responsibilities. It's not that he doesn't care about me."
Realizing that Xiao Yan hadn't fallen for someone else, but simply wanted to take on responsibility, a certain resentment in her heart quietly dissipated.
It was very strange, so strange that she herself didn't know why.
She was now experiencing a strange kind of happiness... She shouldn't feel this way... Even if Xiao Yan hadn't changed his mind, hadn't he said he wouldn't leave Queen Medusa? So why did she still feel happy?
"Xun'er, that's all I have to say. I must leave now." Xiao Yan's voice carried a hint of regret; this meeting seemed to have been anything but pleasant.
"No... wait a minute! Brother Xiao Yan, did you come to see Xun'er because you need my help with something?" Xiao Xun'er suddenly stretched out her hand.
Xiao Yan stopped what he was doing and looked at Xiao Xun'er with expectant eyes.
Xiao Xun'er quickly straightened her face. "I can lend Elder Ling to you, but only out of consideration for our past friendship. It doesn't mean I accept you, Brother Xiao Yan, Queen Medusa. Don't misunderstand."
Xiao Yan smiled knowingly, "Yes, then I thank you very much Xun'er."
Xiao Xun'er ignored her, turned around and ran away.
Back to the Jia Nan Academy.
Xiao Xun'er sat on the stone bench in the Small Courtyard, lost in thought.
When no one was around, a green figure appeared and said to Xiao Xun'er, "Miss, Xiao Yan treated you so badly, why are you still helping him? Did you forgive him after just a few words from him?"
Xiao Xun'er snapped out of her daze and immediately retorted, "No, I'm only thinking of our past friendship!"
She thought to herself, "Is it really okay for me to forgive Brother Xiao Yan so easily?"
Green figure:... Then why did you smile unconsciously, Xun'er?
She remained silent and said no more.
She understood, she understood completely.
Don't look at what your young lady says, but look at what she does.
Speechless...
"Elder Ling, we meet again." Xiao Yan looked at Ling Ying, whose body was shrouded in shadow.
Ling Ying nodded, remaining as taciturn as ever.
The two remained silent, their Dou Qi Transformation Wings as they flew through the air.
After flying for a while, Ling Ying suddenly spoke up, "Young Master Xiao Yan, Miss Xun'er was very sad after learning about what happened to you. For the past few months, she has been staring at the sky in a daze every day."
Xiao Yan lowered his head slightly, somewhat ashamed. "I understand."
Ling Ying continued, "Don't give up... Miss Xun'er's actions show that she still cares about you."
"However, having Queen Medusa as a partner will make it much more difficult for you to marry Miss Xun'er in the future."
The obstacles from the Ancient Clan will be even greater.
Xiao Yan: "Thank you for the reminder, Elder Ling, but I understand all of that."
He understood, he always understood, that marrying Xiao Xun'er was not a simple matter.
Especially given that he will definitely have many partners in the future, not just Xiao Xun'er, gaining the approval of the Ancient Clan will be even more difficult; even ordinary Dou Sheng might not be able to gain their approval.
but...
"If Dou Sheng isn't enough, I'll become Half-Emperor; if Half-Emperor isn't enough, I'll become Dou Emperor! Ancient Clan are nothing." Xiao Yan thought firmly.
After flying for a while, Xiao Yan and Ling Ying flew back to the Flying Boat together.
With Hai Bodong, him, and Ling Ying, the combined strength of two Dou Zong and one peak Dou Emperor was enough to wipe out most of the forces in the Black-Corner Region.
The three of them gathered on a Flying Boat.
Xiao Yan gave Ling Ying the task of stopping all the Dou Emperor except for the Gold and Silver Elders and Han Feng!
