Fu Hua came here to retrieve the Xuanyuan Sword, and now that she has achieved her goal, she naturally plans to leave.

"Okay, sure."

Ling Xi didn't object. Although she usually stayed here when she brought Li Sushang back, but...

Given Fu Hua's current condition, it's clearly not suitable for her to stay here. After all, it would put a lot of pressure on Qin Suyi, and secondly...

Although Fu Hua did not make things difficult for Qin Suyi, it was clear that Fu Hua's attitude towards Qin Suyi was not good.

"Master, you can stay with me for a few more days."

Qin Suyi immediately tried to persuade him to stay, and she wasn't just pretending; she genuinely wanted to keep him there.

"No need."

Fu Hua gently shook her head. "Su Yi, we'll meet again someday."

With that, Fu Hua walked out of the hall first and left...

"Sushang."

Ling Xi looked at Li Sushang and smiled, "You should rest at home for a few days. I'll come pick you up when you go back in a few days."

"Eh? Master..."

Li Sushang also seemed a bit confused. Something felt... off!

But before Li Sushang could ask, Ling Xi had already left with Fu Hua...

"Master!"

Li Sushang also chased after him, stopping Ling Xi directly and asking in a low voice, "Master, did I... did my mother do something wrong?"

At this moment, Li Sushang had already vaguely sensed a problem. In the past, when Ling Xi brought her back, the atmosphere, while not exactly harmonious, was at least a normal conversation, and Ling Xi would stay with her. But this time...

Li Sushang had already sensed that something was definitely wrong.

"This has nothing to do with us."

Ling Xi ruffled Li Sushang's hair and said with a smile, "This is a matter between your grandmaster and your mother, it has nothing to do with us."

"Then... why didn't Master stay?"

Li Sushang looked at Ling Xi with longing eyes, seemingly reluctant to part with her. She... always felt that Ling Xi would never return.

"Ha, don't you know me at all?"

Ling Xi laughed, annoyed, "I'm naturally free-spirited and don't like being bound by rules. But in your family, I have to maintain a superior image, which is too difficult. So... I prefer to be free."

"Eh..."

Li Sushang couldn't really refute this, because she felt the same way...

After spending a lot of time with Ling Xi, my personality and habits became more casual, which resulted in me being scolded by my mother a lot when I got home.

"Then... Master wouldn't be trying to get rid of me under the guise of this, would he?"

Li Sushang asked cautiously. Although it seemed that Ling Xi had no motive, she still had this feeling, especially with Fu Hua by Ling Xi's side.

Ling Xi "..."

"Awoo..."

Li Sushang was hit directly on the head.

At the same time Ling Xi said irritably, "You've been reading too many ridiculous novels. And why would I dump you? Can you give me a reason why I absolutely have to dump you?"

"Eh..."

Li Sushang hesitated for a moment, then tentatively asked, "Disrespectful to your master?"

"Ha, if that were the reason, I would have dumped you ten years ago. Why would I have waited until now?"

Ling Xi pursed her lips. This girl always wants to be a rebellious disciple. When has she ever respected her master? Um... besides, I'm not this girl's master.

"Heh... hehe."

Li Sushang smiled happily. Indeed, Ling Xi didn't seem to have a reason to get rid of her...

"Then... Master, about our matter..."

Li Sushang asked softly. She really wanted to confirm this matter, after all... although her master's pre-existing armor was practically nonexistent, her personal charisma was immense, so...

Li Sushang was worried that she would mess things up, so...

It would be better to seize the initiative and tell your mother about it now, then finalize the decision, if possible...

Ideally, the wedding banquet should be held tomorrow, and the baby should be born the day after!

"Um... this..."

Ling Xi hesitated for a moment. Well, Ling Xi glanced at Qin Suyi, who was watching them from not far away...

Ling Xi: "..." I'm feeling a bit pressured...

"Sushang!"

Ling Xi said seriously, "After this, you're mine, which means... wherever I go, you go. In the future... you might never have the chance to come back to this home again, do you understand?"

"This..."

Li Sushang hesitated for a moment, but then she understood what Ling Xi meant: the Hibernation Pod...

According to Ling Xi, he was probably planning to put himself into hibernation, so...

Perhaps this really is the last time I'll go home.

"Um..."

Finally, Li Sushang nodded seriously, "Master, I understand!"

"Oh well,"

Seeing that Li Sushang was prepared, Ling Xi gently stroked her hair and smiled, "Then, you should talk to your mother in the next few days. When I come to pick you up in a week, I will resolve this matter, okay?"

"Uh-huh."

Li Sushang had no objections whatsoever. She nodded and smiled, "Master, then I'll wait for you to come and pick me up."

"Um..."

Ling Xi smiled and said, "Well then... Sushang, see you another day."

"Yes, see you another day, Master."

Li Sushang nodded slightly, then watched Ling Xi leave...

"Sushang, what did you and your master talk about?"

Watching Ling Xi and Fu Hua leave, Qin Suyi hurriedly went to her daughter's side and asked her with some curiosity.

"Hehe, it's nothing, it's just that my master told me to rest well and come pick me up in a week..."

Li Sushang smiled shyly. Although she had already considered telling her mother about it, she decided to wait a day or two to process things, after all...

Whether it was about her own future or about her relationship with Ling Xi, she felt it was a little... difficult to talk about.

Qin Suyi simply stared at Li Sushang calmly for a while, and finally sighed silently. Obviously, she had noticed something unusual about Li Sushang, because... she was exactly the same as herself back then.

Chapter 586: Immortal, let's go back to our room and chat.

"Have you finished chatting with your girlfriend?"

When Ling Xi caught up with Fu Hua looked at Ling Xi with a half-smile.

"Cough cough!"

Ling Xi coughed decisively and said, "Hua, please watch your words. I was saying goodbye to my dear disciple, not what you're imagining."

"Sigh...but someone has said more than once that she is not your disciple."

Fu Hua chuckled and said, "Of course, I understand your predicament. After all, I don't want to be your senior uncle either, do I?"

Ling Xi "..."

"Hua, let's spend the next few days exploring Sichuan."

Ling Xi promptly changed the subject, laughing, "Although the cities here are not as good as the capital and the coastal areas, the natural environment is still quite good in this era. Moreover, Sichuan is not lacking in tourist attractions, and these attractions will all cost money in the future."

Since Ling Xi wouldn't be picking up Li Sushang for another week, Ling Xi naturally couldn't just wait around with Fu Hua. Of course, she had to go out and have some fun.

Although Ling Xi had already traveled all over Shenzhou ten years ago, Fu Hua hadn't. Moreover, she was alone at the time and was quite bored, so Ling Xi thought of going on another trip with Fu Hua.

"Okay, you can arrange it."

Fu Hua had absolutely no objection to this, after all, she hadn't been out for a long time. As for the scenery... to be honest, the scenery of her own Mount Tai Xu basically surpasses 99% of the 5A scenic spots in the world.

"Let's go get something to eat first."

Ling Xi smiled slightly and said, "Although there aren't many spices in this era, some foods still taste quite good. Since we've come all this way, let's not make them ourselves."

"Yes, that's fine..."

Fu Hua nodded silently, offering no objections. In any case, she would stay by Ling Xi's side and let Ling Xi arrange things as she pleased.

Thus, Ling Xi and Fu Hua embarked on a vacation in Sichuan...

"Hua, try this."

Three days later, in the main city of the Sichuan Plain, Ling Xi and Fu Hua were having dinner at the most famous local restaurant. Ling Xi picked up a piece of local specialty food for Fu Hua.

"Thank you, Ling Xi, you should eat too."

Fu Hua did not refuse Ling Xi's kindness, but she always seemed a little reserved, which was her habit over the years.

After all these years, she has always eaten alone. And in the last few months, because Li Sushang was at home, Ling Xi couldn't be too close to Fu Hua. So in fact, in these last two months, Fu Hua has always felt a bit like an outsider.

Moreover, strictly speaking, this should be the longest period of time that Fu Hua and Ling Xi have been alone together!

"No need for Ke Qing, Hua, you should eat more."

Ling Xi smiled and then put another piece of meat on Fu Hua's plate, saying, "Eat more so you can grow taller. Even if it's not for your own sake, you have to think about... cough cough. Anyway, Hua, eat more."

Ling Xi wanted to say it was for the sake of the child, but... Ling Xi thought about it and ultimately didn't speak. It wasn't that she didn't want to, but that she didn't dare!

After all, if he dared to say that, Fu Hua might just unleash a Tai Xu Sword God attack on him. Although he wouldn't die, being hit by that attack would really hurt.

"Eh..."

Looking at the food in the bowl, Fu Hua was clearly happy, but also somewhat helpless. Was this guy treating her like a pig?

"Okay, I understand."

However, Fu Hua did not refuse and slowly began to eat.

"Ling Xi, where are we going next?"

While having dinner, Fu Hua asked Ling Xi about her upcoming schedule.

"How about going to Luhua Pond?"

Ling Xi smiled slightly and said, "Going northwest for a few hundred kilometers will get you there. The scenery there is quite beautiful. I went there before, but it's really not fun to go alone. There's no one to chat with."

"Didn't you take Sushang with you?"

Fu Hua couldn't help but ask out of curiosity, because based on her understanding of Ling Xi, he wasn't the kind of person who could stay idle, so she still didn't quite believe that Ling Xi could really stay on the mountain with Li Sushang for ten years.

"Of course not."

Ling Xi pursed her lips and said, "Sushang and I basically live on Mount Tai Xu. Even when we go out occasionally, it's for important matters. We've never traveled together for tourism purposes."

"Really? Then I'm honored."

Fu Hua said with a half-smile, "After all, not everyone has the opportunity to travel with Ling Xi."

"What opportunity? It's just boring."

Ling Xi gave Fu Hua a disgruntled look and asked, "Just tell me if you're going or not?"

"Yes, of course we'll go."

Fu Hua immediately nodded and smiled, "I'd like to see if the scenery of Luhua Pond is the same as in the game."

"Don't worry, it will definitely be even more beautiful than in the game."
