And they should be the ones guarding the Jade Dragon Pearl.
"Ming Yuxiu deserved to die, it was so easy for her to die. She got off too lightly."
The old lady evaded the question and Su Zimo immediately called out, "Grandma...!"
"This is the Four-Color Brocade. Carry it with you, and whenever you go to a place depicted on the Four-Color Brocade, you will find an answer."
As the old lady spoke, a reddish-brown brocade floated in front of Su Zimo's eyes.
"This is...?" Su Zimo wanted to say, "Can't I just do business and take care of my child? It's such a simple request. Do I really need this Four-Color Brocade?"
"You can rest assured and go back now! When Ming Yuxiu arrived here, I had already discovered her in the crystal ball. Those men who died were bandits on the official road, doing all sorts of evil. Fortunately, the crystal ball showed something unusual; otherwise, our Jade Dragon Village wouldn't have escaped this disaster. Take Cai'er back with you! Don't tell her the truth about what happened. One year from today, come back here, and I will have part of the answers you need. There's no need for you to go to the village anymore, just go back directly!"
After the old woman finished speaking, she took the two children behind her and walked into the cave.
"The Witch Clan is not as simple as it seems. You must be extra careful."
The old lady's voice sounded somewhat gloomy, with a hint of concern.
"Grandma, that big sister is very beautiful."
The voice of the little girl echoed in the cave, clear and crisp.
"Yes, she is beautiful, but her cultivation is nothing special."
"Ugh!" Su Zimo stared with her beautiful eyes. She felt happy when she heard the first sentence, but instantly deflated upon hearing the second sentence. She had put in so much effort to achieve her current cultivation level, but now that she was here, she had become an object of disdain for others.
"Hehe!" Mu Yunxuan looked at Su Zimo's speechless profile and smiled. His smile was as pure, elegant, and precious as a jade, refreshing and soothing to the heart.
"Momo, you're already doing great."
"But I don't sense any 'greatness' in your laughter."
Su Zimo pouted, angrily looking at Mu Yunxuan. Her star-like eyes carried a hint of warmth and anger.
And her charming appearance made Mu Yunxuan have the impulse to get close to her.
"You! Mischievous girl." Mu Yunxuan indulgently pinched her cute nose. A faint fragrance emanated from her body, seeping into his heart as he pinched.
"Why do I feel like I'm just a child in your eyes?"
Su Zimo wrinkled her nose, but deep down, she loved the boundless indulgence she received from him.
"A little bit."
"What do you mean by 'a little bit'? Explain clearly," Su Zimo insisted, unwilling to let go.
"Let's go! Your father-in-law, mother-in-law, and the children must be anxious."
Mu Yunxuan chuckled as he looked at her. Without warning, he embraced her, and the two of them instantly disappeared from the spot.
In Biquan Town, Nalan Wenhao and the others checked into the largest inn in town.
Su Qi and Nalan Yi both enjoyed bustling places. Seeing all the delicious food on the street, the two of them couldn't resist and secretly sneaked out.
During dinner, Nalan Wenhao realized that two people were missing.
Amidst the bustling streets, Su Qi had a few more chicken legs in his hand, while Nalan Yi held a roasted chicken.
As they walked and ate, their outstanding looks couldn't help but attract the attention of people passing by, causing them to turn their heads to look.
"Little Uncle, isn't it fun being out?" Su Qi squinted his eyes and flashed a cunning light in his mischievous gaze. His small mouth was oily from the food.
"Yeah! Qi'er, it's fun. When we were outside the border before, there was nothing, nothing interesting at all. This time, I've really seen a lot of things coming out."
Nalan Yi ate the roasted chicken and spoke somewhat unclearly. With Qi'er and the others around, he didn't need to pretend to be a gentleman or restrain his actions. He could do whatever he wanted and eat whatever he wanted.
"Move aside!"
"Quickly get out of the way, everyone!"
Suddenly, the people on the street started fleeing in all directions.
The situation quickly spiraled out of control. Stall vendors were knocked over by the fleeing crowd, and things were scattered everywhere, accompanied by a continuous chorus of screams.
"Qi'er, something seems to be happening up ahead."
Amidst the chaos, someone exclaimed, screamed, and fled. A horse-drawn carriage raced towards Su Qi and Nalan Yi, raising a cloud of dust.
"Ah!" A voice filled with pain and terror came from inside the carriage.
However, it didn't elicit the slightest sympathy from the people around.
Everyone who knew about it knew that this was the carriage of Xiao Yingying, the beloved daughter of Xiao Shijiu, the mayor of Biquan Town. Incidents like this happened multiple times a month. As long as this young lady was unhappy, everyone on the street would suffer.
But watching Su Qi's performance, instantly, applause erupted from the surroundings. Everyone admired Su Qi and no one had ever dared to intercept Xiao Yingying's carriage. The people accompanying Xiao Yingying were usually high-level martial artists of the Golden Profound Realm or above.
"Where did this wild child come from? How dare you block our young lady's way."
The young-looking coachman glared at Su Qi with an arrogant expression on his round face.
"You blind fool! Who are you calling a wild child? How dare you drive like this on a busy street? Do you think this place is your home?"
Su Qi looked coldly at the coachman, small in stature but with great momentum. His icy gaze made the coachman feel a little frightened. However, the coachman thought to himself that this was their young lady's territory. His arrogance, which had just been diminished, resurfaced.
"Hey! You're right. This is the territory of our Jiang family."
Su Qi frowned, falling into the trap set by the coachman. It was true!
"Just because it's your home, does that mean you can recklessly rampage like this? Isn't there any law in the Haoyue Kingdom? If a young lady from the mayor's family can be so arrogant, then her father, the mayor, must be even more lawless."
Su Qi stood with his hands on his hips, squinting his eyes with an expression that said, "Dare to provoke me and see what I'll do to you." Not to mention, the dust kicked up by the carriage had ruined his chicken legs. Today, he wanted to make them fight in mid-air and perform a big somersault.
"The law is our mayor." The coachman had a smug look on his face, his eyes filled with satisfaction. Now this arrogant kid should be scared, right?
"Qi'er, let's not cause trouble. It would be terrible if your sister finds out," Nalan Yi ran over and tugged on Su Qi's arm. His sister was most worried about Qi'er, afraid that he would get into trouble.
"Little Uncle, do you think we can still calm things down now? Someone has already gone back to report to the mayor's mansion," Su Qi said.
"Ah!" Nalan Yi's mouth hung open in surprise.
The people around looked at Su Qi, both worried for him and eager to see the show.
"Whoever has no eyes, come and catch this young lady."
At this moment, the people inside the carriage finally stopped groaning in pain and shouted in anger!
Immediately, a chubby little girl of about six or seven years old emerged from the carriage, seething with rage.
"Wow! She seems to be a little pig?"
"How do you know that this young lady is a pig?"
The little girl narrowed her small eyes and pouted as she looked at Su Qi.
When she saw Su Qi's delicate and beautiful face, the little girl's mouth hung open. There could actually be such a beautiful person in the world. The little girl looked at Su Qi with a bit of infatuation.
"Ah! So you really are a pig! No wonder..."
Su Qi looked at the little girl in astonishment, carefully observing her chubby figure and...
"Tsk tsk... No wonder you look so much like a pig."
Xiao Yingying finally understood what Su Qi meant.
Her chubby little face instantly turned red, and she scolded angrily, "You bastard! How dare you... How dare you call this young lady a pig?"
"Ah! Are you an idiot? It's so obvious, and you're just realizing it now. Look at your figure, it takes two of my sister Lixiao Nuan to match your width."
Su Qi looked at her as if she were an idiot, so casual and with a hint of cunning in his eyes, making him look very sinister.
"How dare you insult this young lady and call her an idiot! This young lady will show you how powerful an idiot can be." Xiao Yingying glared with round eyes. She had been pampered since childhood and couldn't bear such anger.
"Do you think I'm scared of you, kid?" Su Qi's expression said, "If you have the ability, show it."
"Capture this little bastard who insulted this young lady."
A gust of wind blew, and four guards suddenly appeared, looking down on Su Qi from above.
Xiao Yingying's chubby little face filled with pride. If anyone dared to provoke her, she wouldn't be polite.
Seeing the appearance of the guards, the people in the surrounding crowd became nervous, watching Su Qi with concern.
"Ah! This little kid is in trouble today. Xiao Miss is known for being arrogant and domineering."
"Who doesn't know that? Look, she even has bodyguards following her when she goes out."
"Hmph! Last time, my son accidentally bumped into her, and one of these four guards broke his arm. I wonder what will happen to this kid today."
"What's a broken arm compared to what I heard? I heard that when she passed by the tofu seller Wang, she said his stinky tofu smelled so bad that she made these four men smash his tofu stall. He was beaten too, and now he can't get out of bed."
The crowd was buzzing with discussions, talking about Xiao Yingying's notorious behavior.
Su Qi and Nalan Yi exchanged glances. So this was how arrogant and domineering Xiao Yingying was?
