Chapter 134 Shengyue's Late Night Visit
Xingyuan still respects Shengyue very much. After all, their whole family is very good to Xingyuan.
If Sheng Lingxin and Lan Yanyu hadn't adopted him, he didn't know how many more years he would have to take a detour?
Not to mention winning the Demon Hunting Team's selection competition, even defeating someone like Yang Wenzhao would be a difficult task.
You have to know that Xingyuan is a lonely man!
Unlike Long Haochen and Yang Wenzhao, who have a father and grandfather who are Divine Seal Knights, they have spiritual furnaces and cultivation resources...
In the Holy Demon Continent, no matter how talented you are, if you cannot solve the two problems of equipment and training resources, even a phoenix will fall to the ground and turn into a chicken.
Cai'er's talent and background destined her to become the leader of the Assassin's Temple in the future.
In the context of the alliance during this period, the physique of those favored by God would not be allowed to be wasted.
Shengyue knew very well that even if Cai'er did nothing, unless she was unable to get over it, she would definitely be nominated as the future leader of the Assassin's Temple.
So he has to pave the way for Caier.
Regardless of whether she is willing to take over as the leader of the Assassin's Temple in the future, Shengyue must fight for everything he can for her while she is still young, so that at least the decision-making power is in her own hands.
As if she had noticed Shengyue's gaze, Cai'er stood up from the sofa and went back to her and Xingyuan's bedroom without saying a word.
Xingyuan opened his mouth, but in the end, no words came out.
Cai'er hated her so-called 'family', and Xingyuan knew it.
Put yourself in his shoes. If the things that happened to Cai'er happened to Xingyuan, given his personality and attitude, he would be even worse than Cai'er.
It's a pity that this won't work...
As long as Cai'er doesn't reconcile with her family and untie all the knots in her heart, the test of the reincarnation furnace will never end. It will continue to deprive Cai'er of her five senses and six consciousnesses until she becomes a walking corpse...
"Great-grandfather..."
Xingyuan felt somewhat guilty for not being able to reconcile the conflict between Xu Caier and her original family.
"it's not your fault."
Shengyue shook his head and patted Xingyuan's shoulders twice.
Xingyuan did a great job. At least when Caier was with him, she felt truly happy from the bottom of her heart.
But after all, due to his age and status, Shengyue could not say anything else to praise Xingyuan except "You have done a good job".
"Great Grandfather, please take a seat. I'll pour you a cup of tea."
Although Xingyuan and Cai'er both had no habit of drinking tea, fortunately Xingyuan was a top-grade potion master and usually received a lot of gifts, including both good tea and aged wine, all of which were placed in the storage ring he bought.
After respectfully serving tea to his great-grandfather, Xingyuan finally found time to ask, "Great-grandfather, you came here so late, is there something important?"
"Ah."
Shengyue had been satisfied with Xingyuan, her great-grandson-in-law, for a long time. Especially as he grew older, Xingyuan became much more mature and reliable.
Shengyue picked up the teacup, originally just wanting to take a sip out of consideration for Xingyuan's effort.
But he didn't expect that Xingyuan would take out such good tea to treat him, and he couldn't help but look at Xingyuan more.
He almost forgot that Xingyuan was also a top-grade potion master, and many people would take these gifts and money to ask him for medicine.
It's not that he, the master of the Assassin's Temple, couldn't even get the tea produced in the tea garden halfway up the mountain in the southeast fortress of the Warrior Temple. It's just that he couldn't order his own temple members for such a small matter, nor could he go there in person just to order some tea...
Shengyue drank it all in one gulp and put the cup back on the table.
"The reason I'm here is because of you and Cai'er." Sheng Yue let out a long sigh. He knew very well that his great-granddaughter didn't want to see him, and he also knew that Xingyuan would be in an awkward position being caught between them.
So he asked Xingyuan in a negotiating tone: "Can you go and call Cai'er out?"
Xingyuan, who was pouring tea for the other person, was startled. His hand holding the teapot trembled and the tea spilled onto the table.
How could my great-grandfather actually speak to me in such a tone?
Xingyuan also realized that Shengyue's eyes were neither sad nor happy. The reason why Shengyue chose to visit in the middle of the night and talked to Xingyuan in such a tone...
This is because his current identity is Cai'er's elder, not the leader of the Assassin's Temple.
Sheng Yue saw Xing Yuan's reaction and couldn't help laughing: "Why, is it so scary?"
This was just a joke that Shengyue said casually, so Xingyuan naturally couldn't answer it.
Shengyue shook his head and wanted Xingyuan to go into the room to call Caier out, but he noticed that Xingyuan's palms suddenly radiated high temperature, and all the tea spilled on the table was steamed up in front of him.
"Cultivating both earth and fire?"
Sheng Yue asked softly, "Why haven't I seen you use this move in a competition?"
"Ah."
Xing Yuan nodded slightly, and after a moment's silence, he explained, "The pressure of the competition is not that great yet, so there is no need to use this trick for the time being."
After listening to this, Shengyue couldn't help but look at Xingyuan deeply.
"correct."
Sheng Yue suddenly remembered that the last time he spoke to Xing Yuan like this, the other party seemed to want to tell him his innate internal spiritual power value, but was interrupted by Cai Er.
At that time, Shengyue thought it was nothing. After all, no matter how high Xingyuan's innate inner spiritual power was, it could not be higher than Cai'er's, which had reached the maximum value, that is, 100 points of innate inner spiritual power. So it didn't matter if he didn't hear it.
But now Shengyue's curiosity was aroused, so much so that he even forgot the purpose of his visit.
"Xingyuan, when we last spoke, didn't you want to tell me your innate inner spiritual power value?"
Because Shengyue no longer considered Xingyuan an outsider, he asked very directly without any unnecessary beating around the bush.
But this time, just like before, before Xingyuan could open his mouth, Cai'er, who had just been indifferent to Shengyue, walked out of the room and appeared in their sight, interrupting their conversation.
"You say it."
Cai'er's voice returned to its usual cold and clear tone.
Although she was talking to Shengyue, she was facing Xingyuan and holding his hand.
Cai'er would never speak to Xingyuan in such a voice and tone.
Xingyuan understood this, and Shengyue also understood this.
Sheng Yue couldn't help but smile bitterly, knowing that Cai'er was telling him to make it short, and she almost thanked the visitor directly.
"Sit down and talk." Shengyue said.
Seeing that Cai'er had no intention of moving and was acting extremely stubborn, Xingyuan could only pick her up and sit on the sofa together.
