Su Shen, as the future leader of the Xishan Sect, although he was only fourteen years old, sincd his parents were not serious about the work, he felt tired of being head of sect since childhood.
Father and Mother went down from Xishan mountain to travel around nearby towns and villages where there were famine and food shortages, where there were people, bringing sons and daughters to sell. Mother's disease of taking disciples had begun to arise. Before setting out, she took many twelve and thirteen year old disciples up to the mountain.
A young master like him had yet to show off his power, he had to be a mentor to take care of older and younger students who were like a flock of baby birds waiting to be fed.
Not sure of how deep the spirit essence and base formation, but the skill of flipping the abacus, handling the ground, rice, oil, salt, these things can be said to be superior to anyone in the world of asceticism.
Only among the disciples that his mother had taken in, there were still some people who were disobedient as well, not just not intending to practice asceticism, but often secretly ran away. Just like late at this night. At this late time, He had not even slept and ran out to arrest the stubborn disciple of Xishan Sect.
Su Shen trained his leg strength from the Chinese White Tiger from a young age. There was no one who could compete him. He ran much faster than that disciple. Therefore, he lay down and waited on the branch of a large tree.
After a moment passed, when a small figure passed under the tree, he seized the moment to jump down in front of the stubborn little disciple who had sneaked out just in time.
"Late at night, still not sleep, making me to run all over the mountain. When you were on Dragon Island, didn't you sleep at night?"
The young lady that Su Shen had grabbed was thin. But looking at her face, she was an extremely beautiful girl. Only, her face slightly lacked the innocence of thirteen-fourteen years old, laced with a cold aura that seemed beyond her age.
"I will go see Mother. Don't you get in my way!"
This little lady was called Tu Xiangxiang. He heard that his mother, Xue Ranran had given it. Names that were repeated, were catchy and easy on mouth when called.
This girl's bad personality had nothing to do with the word "Xiang" (Xiang meaning sweet smell) at all.
Su Shen didn't need to flick an abacus to remember that this child had only been at Xishan Mountain for a few days and had broken a bowl three times. She hurt other people four times.
It is said that she grew up on Dragon Island. All around were hordes of ferocious dragons. When other girls played with clay dolls and with tiger cloth dolls, Xiangxiang returned to help his mother turn over the dragon eggs on the island to dry in the sun, or rolling around with a little dragon in the water.
Therefore, this young lady had an extremely savage personality.
He heard that her father was Wei Jiu, a master sect named Men. But her father didn't want her. So she and her mother had to hide on Dragon Island.
Such a shame after so many years of living in peace, not knowinc how that Wei Jiu discovered the whereabouts of the mother and daughter, seizing the opportunity when the guardian dragon of the island, was deep asleep. He invaded Dragon Island and kidnapped her mother.
It was said that the guardian of Dragon Island crushd his own love. currently in between passing through the difficult stage of love, which is the stage of misfortune. As long as he could pass this last stage, he would be successful in his penance, he could remove the forbidden magic on Dragon Island that had existed for thousands of years. At such an important time, he would never appear.
At that time, Xiangxiang went into the dragon cave and rescued a little dragon that was stuck in a crevice in the rocks. Therefore she eluded with her birth father.
But before Tu Jiuyuan was captured, she released the paper crane with a talisman on it just in time. That crane flew to deliver news to Mount Xishan, so Ranran and Su Yishui went to get Tu Xiangxiang from Dragon Island.
Then they futher went to Si Yan mountain to continue investigating Jiu Yuan's whereabouts.
But Tu Xiangxiang was not convinced. She wanted to go to the Si Men Sect in person. Thus, this moonlight running away incident occurred.
Seeing that Su Shen was going to block her , the girl who had been raised by a dragon suddenly revealed the arrogant and cold expression of an ancient divine beast. "You think you can block me? Can you?"
Su Shen had his mother's personality. Wherever he went, he must always carry a bag of snacks with him. Even though Xiangxiang's expression was very tense, he still dugged into his dried sweet potato his mother had made, and gave it to her.
"During dinner, you argued with Master Yu Chen. The rice bowl was thrown and broken. You didn't eat . You must be hungry now. In addition to dried sweet potatoes I also have pork slices, ferrment spices with dried licorice-flavored fruit...Try it and see if it suits your taste."
Xiangxiang looked at the smiling youth with cold eyes. Then she glanced at the snack in his hand. She couldn't help but swallow her saliva. The child was in her prime. She couldn't bear the hunger anymore.
When she understood that Su Shen had not come to take her back, but to go to Si Yan as her friend, she couldn't help but asked hesitantly. "Master Yu and everyone else said that my father was a brat, and did a lot of bad deeds. You go with me... what if he captures you?"
Su Shen brandished the mechanical baton he had inherited from his mother, and said proudly "The skill of a young master like me is not a rack of flowers. How can he catch me? It's you who can get caught. What if you get captured by him, what will you do if he kill his daughter to prove the way? So let me be your friend. If the situation is not good I will be the one to protect you."
Su Shen's appearance was very much like Su Yishui, very handsome and eloquent. But his personality was not as cold as his father's. Instead, he was as blunt and sincere as her mother, with such a generous and virtuous expression. This made Xiangxiang couldn't help quick glance at him often. Then he took the dried yam from his hand and ate it mouthfully.
Su Shen saw her greedily eating, and smiled. Even in Xishan Sect, there were many elders and younger disciples. But he liked to look at this younger sister who always acted like an adult.
She seemed stubborn and would not listen to anyone. But in reality, she was just a little child who had left his mother. He had seen her secretly crying alone at the back of Xishan mountain.
He heard that Wei Jiu was extremely vile. In the past, when Xiangxiang had not yet been born. He forced her mother to drink child-killing medicine to get rid of her.
So he had to follow along. Because he was afraid that she would be intimidated by that man dog and had to find a cave on the mountain to secretly cry alone again.
Moreover, leaving the mountain to gain experience was something that every cultivation practitioner must do.
Su Shen had listened to many stories of his parents' adventures before marriage and had longed to experience. He had to grab the opportunity while parents weren't here.
The little martial artist of Xishan Mountain like him would create a legend as well!
After the two youngsters shared their snacks together, they secretly went out.
Su Shen thought that right now, father and mother must be fighting Demon Lord Wei and waiting for him to help!
At this time, his father and mother were really fighting a fierce battle, but the battlefield was a wooden bed in a hut in the middle of a sea of flowers.....
This was the place where Su Yi Shui had taken Ranran before. In the summer, the flowers would bloom and very beautiful.
Therefore, Su Yishui built a wooden house here, bringing water from the stream to flow around the hut, and also covered it with smooth river gravel. The atmosphere was quiet pleasant.
Every year when the summer season comes He would take Ranran to stay here for several days. Since Ranran had been accepting more and more disciples. An unrelated person suddenly caught her attention was too much. Bringing her to this little house was thus gradually calming the waves of jealousy of the former Sect master.
All around the wooden house was decorated with Mantra characters, to eliminate mosquitoes and other pests during the winter season. Only the fragrant scent of flowers that was carried by the night breeze remained.
Ranran wrapped her slender arm on Su Yishui's chest and asked in a low voice, "Did you really bring Tu Jiu Yuan in front of Wei Jiu's eyes like that?"
Su Yishui only snorted coldly. "His nonsense about not being able to handle his own woman. Is it worth spending so much time on him? He had to be aware of your own strength, so that he won't bully the pair oc mother and daughter again."
All these years, Wei Jiu had treated him like he had come to pay respect as if he was his ancestor. Every year, Wei Jiu must come and cause trouble at Xishan Mountain, expecting to ask for Jiu Yuan's whereabouts.
In fact, from Venerable Wei's increasingly soft tone, Ranran felt that this cruel Demon Lord seemed to have realized that he had let something precious go.
People were often like this. Only When they lost something, they know how to cherish it.
Later, he got know Jiu Yuan was at Dragon Island. He wasted more than half of his spiritual power to sneaked into Dragon Island to kidnap Jiu Yuan.
Ranran was initially worried about Jiu Yuan's safety. She wanted to follow Su Yi Shui as well. Who would have thought that Su Yishui would be this straight foward,bringing Tu Jiu Yuan with him siltently. Then he told her to go find daughter at Xishan Mountain.
They would follow her back to Xishan Mountain later.
Such a huge humiliation would have made Master Wei so angry that he would stomp his foot and curse the mother.
But Su Yishui couldn't much care about venerable Wei's feelings. He and Ranran
He practiced to the level of Mahayana and was about to make the Yuan Ying, but he was still holding off on becoming the master, so he could take care of his son a little longer. Moreover, he also wanted Ranran to fully consume the flames of the human world.
Their lifespan was much longer than that of normal humans. But the moment when the two of them could be alone together didn't come easily. He couldn't let it go to waste
even for a moment
The scenery here was beautiful. In the courtyard there was the sound of running water The fruit-bearing trees fell. Would he have the mood to care about Wei Jiu's family matters?
In the past, every time Wei Jiu saw Su Yishui carrying his son around the mountain, The expression on Wei Jiu's face probably reminded him that he had a child who was wandering around outside, was often radiating jealousy. He was not even able embrace his own child.
For several days they stayed here happily. However, the non stop harassing ghostly Wei had came to visit them again.
Because there was a divine barrier that prevented him from entering. So he could only stomp his feet and shout insults outside the fence, "Su Yishui, you raised your son very well! He even secretly went up the mountain Si Yan and put laxative on people in my sect! There's more! He brought my daughter with him all the way, not avoiding any lines between men and women, taking my daughter's hand and run away! Su Yishui, you come out now. Give me back the woman! And tell your dog son to stay away from my daughter! Seeing his expression, I know that he looks like you. A lustful womanizer!"
Su Yishui originally didn't want to pay attention to him. But when he heard the other party scold his son, he smiled coldly, immediately got up and went protect his own person.
Ran Ran knew that these rivals, who have been fighting each other for half their lives, would probably start a fierce battle
together again because of each one's son and daughter.
She could only hope that her husband would act wisely. Otherwise, little Xiangxiang would lose her father at such a young age. What a pity!
At this time the sun was nice. Soon she would have to pick a lot of fresh flowers to take back to Xishan Mountain, to make them dried to make herbal tea.
Wei Jiu still seemed to still has some qualities of a father.Would Tu Xiangxiang accept him or not was unknown.
Under the warm sun Ranran slightly twisted her aching hips, slowly closing her eyes amidst Venerable Wei's incoherent curses.
"Su Yishui! Damn it! Don't use your spiritual power. You and I will use our strength to compete like men for once!".
"Oh..,damn it! you're playing with lace with me.!"
"Oh, oh, oh, you wait. Wait for me to complete my training in the Nine Ying Technique first to determine winning and losing again!"
The sound of cursing grew distant along with Venerable Wei's self-righteousness fading away...
Ranran smiled slightly. She turned over and fell asleep happily.
