"I didn't expect that Xingyuan, you have the habit of gossiping about others behind their backs."
Chen Ying'er pursed her lips, but didn't say anything else and continued to braid Cai'er's hair.
"Hmm, hum, hum -"
"Come on, little guy. I said so many things for you before, and you can't say a few bad words about your master?"
Xingyuan blocked its playful charge with his palm and chuckled, "Since naming is a serious matter, I won't tease you about it. McDull, how about you call yourself this from now on?"
"Ok?"
Before Xiaozhu could express his approval or rejection of the name Xingyuan, Chen Ying'er, who was braiding Cai'er's hair, was stunned.
How come it's exactly the same name I was going to give it?
"Ying'er, what's wrong?"
Cai'er turned around and asked.
"No, no, I was just surprised that he was so good at naming." Chen Ying'er explained hurriedly.
"Oh."
"It seems to like the name McDull."
Xingyuan asked Chen Ying'er for her opinion, "Then let's call him McDull, is that okay?"
"Just make your decision."
Although she was very satisfied with the name Xingyuan helped her choose, Chen Ying'er still felt inconsistent.
Xingyuan: “…”
Why does it act like this is my natal summoned beast?
Seeing this, Xingyuan shook his head helplessly, threw McDull in his hand onto the bed, let it go find its owner, and said that he had to go out for something else.
"Ying'er, you'd better be honest."
Cai'er lay on the bed and whispered.
"……Um."
……
Long Haochen and his companions who had gone out to carry out the mission of intercepting the demon clan's logistics supply team have returned. It is said that they also brought back a light elemental elf.
Although Xingyuan didn't have much idea about elemental elves because he already had Xingyue, he was still quite interested if he just wanted to join in the fun.
What surprised him was that Li Xin and Yue Mingnan also followed him. After all, their professions also majored in the sacred light element.
Since the Assassin's Templar military has released the news that they want to select a suitable partner for this light elemental elf that was accidentally discovered while confiscating the spoils of war from the demons, although the two of them know that their chances are slim, they still want to come and try their luck.
"It's good to go out and walk occasionally. You should pay attention to the balance between work and rest and not put too much pressure on yourself."
Xingyuan glanced at Li Xin and reminded her.
"Thank you for your concern, Master. I'm fine."
After Li Xin finished speaking, she did not forget to express her gratitude to Xing Yuan for helping her resolve the internal injuries caused by going astray during her practice, and for helping her improve her practice efficiency.
"It's just a little effort."
Xingyuan had just finished talking to Li Xin when Yue Mingnan came over with a malicious look on his face, "Master, I want one too."
Xingyuan: "..." "You want a fart."
Xingyuan glared at Yue Mingnan unhappily, and then signaled the two of them not to talk to him in front of others, especially Li Xin.
As for Yue Mingnan's words, Xingyuan originally just wanted her to tone it down and be a little more serious in front of others, but after knowing that his father-in-law, Sheng Lingxin and great-grandfather Sheng Yue would also be present, he immediately changed his words.
"Don't worry, Xingyuan. I won't let them know about our relationship with you."
Yue Mingnan said with a solemn look on his face.
Li Xin: “…”
Otherwise, we should split up later and don’t get too close to me, okay?
Unfortunately, before Xingyuan had time to change his mind, he saw Sheng Lingxin and Sheng Yue, the grandfather and grandson, in the conference hall, looking at him inquiringly, as if they were wondering why Cai'er was not with him now.
As for Cai'er, she is of course practicing now.
After all, her physique didn't show any affinity for the holy light element, so there was no need for her to join in the fun.
As for the content of the cultivation, Xingyuan said that he was not sure.
"Hey, good brother, come join in the fun."
Lin Xin, who had already occupied a front row seat from a distance, saw Xingyuan and, before Huang Yi on the other side could make any move, he invited Xingyuan to sit down on his team's side.
"You two should go look around first."
Of course, Xingyuan did not forget to ask Yue Mingnan and Li Xin not to follow him for the time being, so as to avoid exposing the secret in front of Long Haochen and Lin Xin.
After all, Li Xin is Long Haochen's sworn sister. If he heard Li Xin calling him Xingyuan "Master", wouldn't it cause a huge misunderstanding?
Fortunately, Li Xin and Yue Mingnan thought so too.
For example, Yue Mingnan has many friends whom she met during her training at Zhennanguan, the headquarters of the Priest Temple. Together with her, they stood out from this year's Demon Hunting Team selection and became members of the Demon Hunting Team.
As for Li Xin, her idea was exactly the same as Xing Yuan's. She didn't want Long Haochen to know that she had signed a "servant knight contract" with the leader of her team, Xing Yuan, for the sake of the spirit furnace.
"It's really not easy. Not long after I came back from outside, I found a light elemental elf among the demon spoils we confiscated."
As the person who had known Xingyuan the longest among the No. 3 soldiers, Lin Xin greeted Xingyuan very naturally and introduced other members of his team to him.
As the champion of the preliminary, group and final rounds of this year's selection competition, Xingyuan would naturally be recognized by everyone and needed him to introduce himself to everyone.
The entire team knew that Lin Xin was helping Xingyuan sell pills and earning commissions, so they warmly welcomed Xingyuan's arrival.
...It's just that the quality of these people is a bit average.
Except for the original three people, Long Haochen, Lin Xin and Sima Xian, the spiritual power cultivation of the remaining three people did not exceed the fifth level.
Even with Lin Xin's spirit-enhancing pills to assist their practice, they had only just entered the late fourth stage not long ago, and there was still quite a long time before they could break through to the fifth stage.
No wonder when Xingyuan asked Lin Xin why he sold the excess part of the Shengling Pill in exchange for merits like himself, he just gave Xingyuan a wry smile.
It turned out that all his Spirit-enhancing Pills had been consumed by these people.
"How come Master Xingyuan has refined a few furnaces of Shengling Pills during the few days we were out on a mission?"
Lin Xin's map of Yan State was a little too short. After the two of them had exchanged a few words, he started asking about the Shengling Pill. (End of this chapter)
