Chapter 22 After one year, he returns home rich and powerful, and Xiao Wu returns home!
In this way, Xia Jie and Xiao Wu lived together and became day students. Their relationship was more like that of siblings than that of siblings.

In the eyes of all the teachers and students at Notting College, Xia Jie and Xiao Wu are half-siblings.

Time flies, and a year has passed in a flash.

Douluo Continent has a school year system, and there are only holidays once a school year.

After a year of growth, Xia Jie and Xiao Wu are already seven years old, and both have grown a lot taller.

Outside the gate of the Xia mansion, there were convoys of vehicles loaded with all kinds of supplies, mainly daily necessities - firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, tea, spices, medicinal herbs, cloth, silk, etc.

Xiao Wu directed the grooms, put her hands on her hips and said, "Be careful, everyone. Handle with care."

The team leader bent down and said with a smile: "Master Xiao Wu Soul Master, please rest assured that we are professionals in this field and will definitely not damage anything."

After a while, all the supplies were filled.

The team leader said, "Soul Master Xia Jie, Soul Master Xiao Wu, two great soul masters, the supplies are all fully loaded."

Xia Jie and Xiao Wu are well-known as talented soul masters in Notting College and Notting City, and many people know them.

Xia Jie nodded and said, "Okay, let's go."

At the front row of the convoy, Xia Jie and Xiao Wu got into the carriage. The convoy slowly set off and headed straight for Baluo Village.

...

A few days later, at the entrance of Balo village, there was an ox cart covered with straw. The village chief, Baron, looked like a farmer, and he was about to drive the ox cart into the city.

"Uncle Luoke, don't worry, I'll go pick up Xiaojie and Xiaowu, are you still worried?"

Suddenly, a team of carriages and horses came galloping, raising a cloud of dust.

"Uu~!"

The convoy stopped, and there were more than a dozen carriages, all filled with supplies.

In the carriage at the front, two people slowly walked out.

Sherlock and Baron were surprised and asked, "Xiao Jie, Xiao Wu!?"

Xia Jie smiled and said, "Grandpa, Uncle Baron, Xiao Wu and I are going home."

"Captain Xiong San, unload the cargo."

The team leader, Xiong San, nodded and said, "Okay, brothers, unload the goods for the soul master."

Sherlock and Baron were both shocked: "Soul Master?"

They were just ordinary villagers, with no information channels, and they hadn't entered Nottingham for a year.

Xia Jie and Xiao Wu smiled at each other, and then simultaneously released their martial spirits and soul power.

Especially Xiao Wu, a yellow hundred-year soul ring appeared under her feet.

Although the two were small, they had amazing momentum, especially Xia Jie, who exerted astonishing pressure.

Sherlock and Baron cried with joy: "He really is a soul master."

"Hahaha, my Baro Village also has a soul master."

"There is a soul master in Baro Village now."

Soon, villagers came and gathered at the entrance of the village.

Xia Jie waved his hand and said, "Fellow villagers, Xiao Wu and I bought these supplies together. Thank you for taking care of me and my grandfather over the years."

"Thank you for collecting money to help Xiao Wu and I go to the city to study."

"Now, Xiao Wu and I have become soul masters. These things are a small token of our gratitude."

"Captain Xiong San, please distribute the supplies to the villagers according to the ratio I mentioned earlier."

Xiong San nodded: "Okay."

There were dozens of households in Baluo Village, and every household had a share. Everyone lined up and congratulated Xia Jie and Xiao Wu on becoming soul masters.

They were very happy because a soul master finally appeared in Baro Village.

Becoming a soul master is the basis for becoming a noble. As long as you become a powerful soul master, you can become a noble or a small lord of the Tiandou Empire.

Baron cried with joy: "We in Baro Village now have spirit masters, and two of them. From now on, according to the regulations of the Heaven Dou Empire, we can pay half the tax."

"Thank you Xiaojie, thank you Xiaowu." The villagers were very grateful to Xia Jie and Xiaowu, and praised them for their kindness and righteousness, and for not forgetting the people who dug the well when they drink the water.

Baron said happily: "Tonight, the whole village will have a bonfire party to welcome Xiaojie and Xiaowu back."

The whole village cheered, “Good!”

This night was a carnival night for dozens of households and more than 200 people in Balo Village. Everyone sang and danced, holding hands and dancing around the bonfire, laughing constantly.

The elderly, middle-aged people, teenagers and children were all very happy and enjoyed themselves.

...

Finally, the party ended.

Late at night, the moon is high in the sky, silver-gray light is falling, the path in the forest is clearly visible, and the sounds of flowers, birds and insects can be heard all around, making the moonlight even more peaceful and beautiful.

There are blooming flowers among the hills.

Xia Jie and Xiao Wu were lying lazily in the sea of ​​flowers and lawn, each holding a piece of grass in the corner of their mouths, looking up at the brilliant Milky Way and the bright moon in the sky.

Xiao Wu smiled and said, "Xiao Jie, look, what a beautiful moonlight, what a beautiful starry sky."

Xia Jie turned sideways, looked at Xiao Wu with his deep eyes, and said softly: "For me, no matter how beautiful the moonlight is, no matter how beautiful the stars are, they are not as beautiful as you being by my side."

After hearing this, Xiao Wu looked at Xia Jie's serious and gentle eyes, and her heart was beating fast. Her cheeks flushed slightly, and she asked in a low voice: "What do you mean?"

Xia Jie said: "Xiao Wu, I have no relatives in this world except Grandpa Sherlock."

"I am very grateful to my grandfather for picking me up and raising me for six years with great difficulty, treating me like his own child."

"But, when I grow up, I will eventually leave him and go to Douluo Continent to explore the world."

Xia Jie invited: "Xiao Wu, I hope to be your companion, to explore the Douluo Continent together, to practice together, to make progress together, and to be together forever."

"Xiao Wu, be my sister?"

When Xiao Wu heard this, her delicate body trembled slightly, her exquisite little face was startled, and tears welled up in her beautiful eyes.

She jumped up, turned her back to Xia Jie, and asked softly, "Are you serious?"

Xia Jie answered affirmatively: "Xiao Wu, from the first time you came to Baluo Village and the first time I saw you, I thought you were very cute."

"Later, we awakened our martial spirits together, went to Notting College to practice together, lived together and went to school together... After a year of getting along, I already regarded you as my sister and a family member."

"Practicing soul power is a very boring and tedious thing. I really hope to have a sister who can accompany me. The two of us can climb to the peak of soul master together."

"We have been together for a year, you should know how I feel about you."

Xiao Wu nodded and said, "I know, I have always known it."

"During this year, you indulged me, took care of me, covered me with a blanket at night, bought me delicious food and fun things every day, and even cooked for me."

Xiao Wu's eyes were moist and tears fell: "Except for mom, you are the best person in the world to me."

"But, but..."

Xia Jie asked: "But what, you don't want to?"

"No, I am willing, but..." Xiao Wu clenched her hands, her expression tangled, hesitant and painful, and asked: "But, what if one day, many people want to kill me."

"Those people are still very strong, and you can't beat them, what should you do?"

Xia Jie stared at Xiao Wu and said word by word: "If this day really comes, I will die before you."

"I will never allow them to hurt you before they step over my dead body."

After hearing this, Xiao Wu's tears welled up, her heart softened and she was deeply moved.

She couldn't help but speak, and said softly: "Brother!"

"Sister." Xia Jie walked forward, hugged Xiao Wu and held her in his arms.

Under the bright moonlight and among the dancing flowers, the two hugged each other tightly and became brother and sister.

"Ding dong~"

The system prompt sounded: "Congratulations host, Xiao Wu will never fall in love with Tang San again. You have successfully broken up the CP of Xiao Wu and Tang San. The rewards are as follows-"
