Chapter 18: Holy Moon, the most handsome episode
"It just doesn't work."
Lin Xin thought for a moment, then made an expression as if he had thought of a good idea, "I'll go buy some magic attack scrolls and give free pills to my teammates. They will always accept them."
Isn't that the path you have been taking in the original plot?
Forget it. We can only hope that the Assassin's Temple member on the same team as Lin Xin can hold on a little and not be too weak.
"anyway."
Seeing that Xingyuan seemed to be ending the topic and was about to sit in meditation, Lin Xin, who felt that he had not talked enough, took the initiative to talk to him and looked at the forget-me-not ring on his hand.
"Can we meet your fiancée when we go to the Holy City this time?"
"of course."
……
Meanwhile, in Exorcist City.
"Cai'er doesn't want to participate in the Demon Hunting Group trials?"
Sheng Yue, who heard the news from the Holy Spirit, almost jumped up and slapped the armrest of the chair until it was deformed. She asked in a puzzled voice, "Why?"
"I don't know either." Sheng Lingxin also shook his head in confusion.
"Isn't she missing that kid Xingyuan so much that she's been practicing like crazy for these years?"
Sheng Yue stood up and walked back and forth in the office, "What did you say to her just now?"
"And how did she answer you?"
Feeling Shengyue's aura suddenly growing stronger as his emotions changed, Sheng Lingxin also lowered his head slightly.
"I saw Cai'er locked herself in the room, so I told her that if she didn't get ready to leave, she would be too late to meet up with Xingyuan and the others on the carriage that was leaving from Jialing City."
"She, she said she doesn't want to see Xingyuan anymore."
Shengyue didn't say anything. He just said he would go and take a look himself, and then left Sheng Lingxin alone in his office.
Why did Cai'er suddenly change her behavior and say that she would not abide by the agreement with Xingyuan to meet during this year's Demon Hunting Team selection competition? In fact, Shengyue had vaguely guessed something in his heart.
Silly child, will Xingyuan dislike you just because you are blind now?
Although people's hearts will change, especially in the eight years between the ages of six and fourteen.
Moreover, Jialing City, as a magic city, is much more prosperous than their Exorcist City, and the proportion of female members in the magician profession is also much higher than their Assassin's Temple...
But even so, Shengyue felt that Xingyuan would not change his mind.
After all, Xingyuan's actions in front of the stone chamber where Cai'er held the reincarnation inheritance ceremony made him have a very good impression of him, and he had already acknowledged in his heart that he was his great-granddaughter's son-in-law.
Although fourteen years old is still a bit early for Cai'er who has already become a professional, he has no objection if it is handed over to Xingyuan.
But the prerequisite is that Xingyuan really has not changed his heart, and whether he can truly accept Caier, who is now blind, from the bottom of his heart.
If not, then don't blame Shengyue for turning against you.
While thinking in his mind, Shengyue came to Caier's door.
However, before he could open his mouth and walk forward to knock on the door, Cai'er inside spoke first.
"Great-grandfather, please go back."
Cai'er's emotionless voice came from the dark room, "I will definitely not participate in this year's Demon Hunter Group Selection Competition. Other than that, I will do anything you want me to do."
"Cai'er..."
Listening to Cai'er's voice, Shengyue realized that the problem seemed to be much more serious than he thought, and his brows couldn't help but frown.
"Isn't I the secret weapon you 'made' for the Temple, the blade to slay the demons?" Cai'er continued, "I promise that I will practice well in the future, please go back."
"...You don't believe him?"
Although Sheng Yue was in a bad mood after hearing Cai'er's words, he still suppressed his emotions and asked calmly: "Do you think he will dislike you for being dumb before and blind now?"
"No, no! He won't."
"Then why don't you go?"
Sheng Yue asked again, "You can't be thinking that you are not worthy of him, right?"
Cai'er said nothing, obviously agreeing with Shengyue's words, which was also her true thought.
Even if Xingyuan doesn't mind her being blind now, what if she becomes paralyzed, deaf, loses her sense of touch, or becomes mute in the future?
"It's just nonsense!"
Sheng Yue finally got angry and broke the door with his foot.
Then he scolded Cai'er, who was sitting on the bed, hugging her knees, and exuding a gloomy aura, "You are the most talented and the highest limit of the Reincarnation Saint in our Assassin's Temple since its establishment six thousand years ago."
"And you told me you didn't think you were good enough for him?"
Upon hearing this, Cai'er opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but after a while she said nothing. She just quietly looked at Shengyue who was furious in front of her.
She had promised Xingyuan that she would not tell anyone else about his innate inner spiritual power of ninety-six.
Even if these people are his parents who gave birth to him and raised him, or his great-grandfather in front of him.
However, Xingyuan did not mean this at the time.
In fact, he hoped that Cai'er would tell these things to her great-grandfather and Sheng Lingxin.
After all, these two people would not harm him. Moreover, if they knew that he had an earth element physique with an innate internal spiritual power value of 96, which was no worse than Cai'er before they inherited the reincarnation heritage, they might regard him as a rich son-in-law.
Of course, it’s okay if Cai’er doesn’t say anything.
This shows that she took her words to heart.
However, Xingyuan did not expect that Lan Yanyu, who had been married to Sheng Lingxin for so many years, felt unbalanced because of Cai'er's matter, and did not tell Sheng Lingxin and the Sheng family about his affairs.
……
Seeing Cai'er who remained unmoved no matter what he said, Shengyue finally got her to express her concerns, then he reached out and lifted her up from the bed.
"Just for Xingyuan, you have to go see him."
Sheng Yue pressed a finger on an acupuncture point on the back of Cai'er's neck, temporarily making her lose the ability to struggle.
“If you were really paralyzed, my great-grandfather would go to him and get you back without you having to tell him.
I am not so unkind as to ask him to take care of your food, drink, defecation and urination, and hold him back."
Seeing that Cai'er still refused to go, and knowing that all this was the result of the reincarnation inheritance ceremony that he had forced on her, Shengyue finally agreed to give in.
"so be it."
Sheng Yue felt that her voice had never been so weak as it was at this moment. "The carriage convoy to the Holy City has already left the city. Great Grandfather, let's go to the Holy City together."
Cai'er was stunned.
"When you meet, don't recognize him for the time being."
Sheng Yue asked Sheng Lingxin, who was already guarding outside the door, to find someone to bring the flying magic beast over, and continued, "As long as you still feel that it is not working, the great grandfather will not force you anymore, how about bringing you back directly?"
