The Palace Master Was Old Master Xiao?
"Old Master Xiao!"
With a gasp from Xiao Yi Xian, she instantly stood up from her seated position!
Clearly, the shock Xiao Lin had inflicted on her had made it impossible for her to maintain her composure.
To be honest, Xiao Yi Xian were beaten to death, she would never have imagined that Lin Xiao, the Palace Master of the Myriad Formation Spirit Palace, was actually the Old Master Xiao who had met her once in Green Mountain Town Jia Ma Empire!
Sure enough, as Xiao Lin revealed his true appearance as an old man, Xiao Yi Xian went from being shocked at the beginning to being somewhat at a loss.
Even now, her restless little hands are clutching the hem of her clothes, making her look incredibly adorable.
Xiao Yi Xian felt nothing but gratitude towards Old Master Xiao, who had helped her in the past.
After all, if it weren't for Old Master Xiao's guidance, she might still be choosing to escape into Green Mountain Town.
It can be said that, apart from Old Master Xiao, there is no one she is most grateful to!
"Haha, what's wrong, little girl? Why are you suddenly so reserved again? Don't be nervous, sit down!"
Seeing the contrast between Xiao Yi Xian's before and after, Xiao Lin was in a great mood.
It feels so good to tease the younger generation! It's really satisfying and gives me a great sense of accomplishment!
After a while, Xiao Yi Xian calmed down a bit and sat back down in her seat.
Are you still tired?
As soon as Xiao Yi Xian sat down again, Xiao Lin asked with a half-smile.
When Xiao Lin asked, Xiao Yi Xian was taken aback at first, but then quickly realized that this was Old Master Xiao asking about her excuse of saying she was tired and needed to rest.
This made Xiao Yi Xian blush deeply.
She was just trying to stop Old Master Xiao from saying something before his identity was revealed...
Now that she knew Old Master Xiao's identity, she was naturally not tired!
"No, I'm not tired. You're too kind, Old Master Xiao."
So, as soon as Xiao Lin finished speaking, Xiao Yi Xian blushed and quickly shook her head.
It was clear that she was a little embarrassed.
But you can't blame her for that. Who would have thought that the Palace Master of the Myriad Formation Spirit Palace would be Old Master Xiao?
However, Xiao Yi Xian quickly realized what was happening.
"Speaking of which, Old Master Xiao, you've gone too far! How could you play me like this!"
At this moment, there was not a trace of aloofness towards Xiao Lin left on Xiao Yi Xian's face.
Moreover, she was behaving like a little girl whining to her grandfather.
His attitude was even worse than Qing Lin's towards Xiao Lin!
"How can you blame me for playing a trick on you? In fact, I didn't expect you to come to the Myriad Formation Spirit Palace, little girl!"
This is absolutely the truth from Xiao Lin!
"I never expected such a coincidence... But, Old Master Xiao, are you really the Palace Master of the Myriad Formation Spirit Palace? You're not impersonating him, are you?"
Xiao Yi Xian first sighed, then asked a question that made Xiao Lin's forehead turn black.
What do you mean he's impersonating the Palace Master of the Myriad Formation Spirit Palace?
Does he intend to impersonate himself?
All I can say is that Xiao Yi Xian's thought process is quite something when she's relaxed.
"I am indeed the Palace Master of the Myriad Formation Spirit Palace! However, only a very small number of people in the entire Myriad Formation Spirit Palace know my true identity!"
The outside world and most people in the Myriad Formation Spirit Palace only know me as Lin Xiao!
Xiao Lin then offered a casual explanation.
"I see."
Xiao Yi Xian didn't press Xiao Lin further about why he concealed his identity; it wasn't her concern.
But what she really needs to care about is only one thing, or rather, one person...
Afterwards, the two chatted for a while, with Xiao Yi Xian doing most of the talking and Xiao Lin listening.
As for what Xiao Yi Xian mentioned, it was naturally her experiences over the years.
Because she had always been alone, and now that she had met Xiao Lin, the person she was most grateful to, she naturally and unconsciously revealed another soft side of herself that no one else knew about.
When Xiao Yi Xian spoke animatedly about how she had followed his instructions and actually discovered and subdued the Netherworld Poison Flame in the Cloud Empire, even Xiao Lin was somewhat surprised.
After all, although the Cloud Empire was located in an area with many swamps, Xiao Lin was unsure whether the Netherworld Poison Flame existed there.
In any case, Xiao Yi Xian in the Original Work did not have the Netherworld Poison Flame.
Perhaps the Xiao Yi Xian in the Original Work didn't search for it seriously, or perhaps there were other unknown factors interfering, but in any case, the Xiao Yi Xian in this life truly possesses the Netherworld Poison Flame.
This allowed her to better control the situation and delay the onset of the aftereffects of the Woeful Poison Body.
"... That's roughly it."
After telling Xiao Lin about her experiences, Xiao Yi Xian felt completely refreshed.
Because of her personality, finding someone she trusts to confide in is not an easy thing for Xiao Yi Xian.
Is that really all?
However, as Xiao Yi Xian finished speaking, Xiao Lin looked at her with a half-smile and asked in return.
Meeting Xiao Lin's gaze, which seemed to see right through people, Xiao Yi Xian guiltily turned her head away.
"Little girl, you didn't mention a word about you and Xiao Yan just now! Or did you not run into that kid Xiao Yan after I left Green Mountain Town?"
Xiao Yi Xian: "..."
Sometimes, silence is the best answer!
"So, little girl, you don't like that silly boy Xiao Yan anymore? Sigh, what a waste of all my hard work back then!"
As he spoke, Xiao Lin deliberately sighed.
"No, Old Master Xiao, I don't dislike Xiao Yan..."
No sooner had Xiao Lin finished speaking than Xiao Yi Xian spoke up without hesitation.
But before she could finish her sentence, her face suddenly turned bright red!
Clearly, Xiao Yi Xian was a little shy after speaking her mind to Xiao Lin, an elder.
Come to think of it, Xiao Yi Xian clearly likes Xiao Yan, but her awkward personality is what makes her choose to run away.
Now that she's met the grandfather of the person she likes, and without thinking, blurted out that she likes his grandson, Xiao Yi Xian, with her thin skin, of course she'd feel embarrassed!
"Oh? So you like him? In that case, with the Engagement Contract I gave you back then, does that brat Xiao Yan dare to deny it?"
If that's the case, I'll grab that brat and beat him up to vent your anger!
After saying that, Xiao Lin pretended to stand up and prepared to grab Xiao Yan.
Earlier, Xiao Yi Xian might have been able to see through Xiao Lin's affectation, but now, with her mind completely occupied by Xiao Yi Xian Xiao Yan, she no longer had the time to carefully discern these things.
And so, she was tricked by Xiao Lin, the sixth brother, once again!
"That's not how it is, Old Master Xiao. Xiao Yan didn't deny it; I just didn't want to pressure him, and I never told him about it! So it really has nothing to do with him, please don't blame him!"
When Xiao Yi Xian got anxious, all her thoughts were written on her face again.
At this moment, Xiao Yi Xian was nowhere to be seen in her usual aloof and distant demeanor.
She's clearly a young girl in love who's worried that the person she likes will be misunderstood and blamed by his family!
"If that's the case, why did you come to Central Plains with Baili Qing and Qing Lin instead of Xiao Yan? That doesn't make sense, does it?"
Xiao Lin tentatively asked.
Xiao Yi Xian: "..."
At this moment, Xiao Yi Xian didn't know how to answer, so she subconsciously gathered her pale hair, which made her feel inferior.
Seeing Xiao Yi Xian's actions, Xiao Lin was first taken aback, and then he also showed a thoughtful expression.
