Chapter 1129: Xu Bai's Return (2)
Chapter 1129: Xu Bai’s Return (2)
At this moment, in the land of the barbarians.
Xu Ling had already grown into a beautiful young lady. Her child-like nature had completely disappeared and was replaced by a calm and steady demeanor.
She was wearing a light yellow dress and her expression was as cold as ice. Her eyes were filled with killing intent.
Beside her, Chu Ling, Ye Zi and Qing Xue were standing silently at the side. The three women had a trace of heartache on their faces.
Originally, Xu Ling was an innocent and cute little girl. Although she looked mischievous, she had brought a lot of trouble to the palace.
However, she wasn’t detestable. In fact, the people in the palace liked her very much. However, as Xu Bai’s disappearance grew longer and longer, Xu Ling grew up very quickly. She gradually became more sensible and taciturn.
She used her special ability crazily and improved crazily. Everyone knew her goal.
“Ling ‘er, it’s not good for you to be like this all day. You have to believe in your father.”Chu Ling looked at the silent Xu Ling and said with heartache.
Even though she knew that Xu Bai was fine and that they often exchanged letters, Xu Ling’s current appearance didn’t change.
.comXu Ling turned around, and the coldness on her face melted slightly.” Mother, I know, but you don’t have to worry, I have a number, I want to improve my strength, I want to catch that guy who has been waiting for me, I want to beat him up, I want him to kneel in front of me and apologize.””
It had to be said that it wasn’t that families didn’t like each other. Xu Ling’s tone was very similar to Xu Bai’s.
Ye Zi and Qing Xue looked at each other and sighed without saying anything.
They knew that if Xu Bai didn’t return, Xu Ling’s condition wouldn’t change.
“Mother, I’ll immediately make a trip to the Great Chu Imperial Palace.”” I’ll only come back after I’ve become a Saint,” Xu Ling said coldly.” Otherwise, I’ll be in seclusion.””
She knew very well that if she wanted to reach her father’s strength or even go higher, becoming a saint was the biggest hurdle.
The most important thing in this hurdle was time. She had to snatch the last two spots before they were taken away by others, so she had to seize them.
Chu Ling was also very clear in her heart that even though this girl of hers looked like nothing on the surface, her personality was actually very stubborn, just like her husband. That kind of personality belonged to a type that even ten oxen couldn’t pull back.
She could only nod and agree.
However, as a mother, she was still very worried. Just as she was about to say a few words to comfort Xu Ling and tell her not to tire herself out, a sound suddenly rang out.
Everyone looked over. There was a small black dot in the distance that was rapidly approaching.
In an instant, a powerful pressure descended from the sky. The moment the pressure appeared, countless figures rose from all over the palace, and all kinds of experts flew into the air.
At the same time, in the palace treasury, Liu Qingfeng, dressed in white, descended from the sky and looked into the distance.
Now that Liu Qingfeng had reached the Saint Realm, he was even more powerful. He looked like a bottomless cold pool.
“Enemies?” Chu Ling frowned slightly and asked.
Liu Qingfeng shook his head and looked at the black dot in the sky. He smiled and said,”No, Prince Xu is back.”
As soon as he finished speaking, everyone fell silent like statues.
Those experts instantly turned their eyes to the little black dot. In the blink of an eye, the little black dot was approaching the top of the palace, and the pressure was even stronger.
This extremely long distance did not seem to be a problem. A figure stood in the air, emitting a terrifying aura.
“Everyone, don’t panic. Disperse, I’m back.”Xu Bai smiled and waved his hand.
With just one sentence, these countless experts instantly disappeared. They returned to where they came from, as if nothing had happened. However, everyone was incomparably excited, but they didn’t show it.
That man had returned.
The news was like a butterfly with wings, spreading in all directions with the palace as the center.
“Congratulations, Brother Qingfeng,” Xu Bai cupped his hands and said.”You’ve become a Saint. There’s another top-notch expert in this world.””
Liu Qingfeng smiled bitterly.” Compared to Brother Xu, my strength is really not enough. When I look at Brother Xu, it’s like I’m looking at an insurmountable mountain.””
Xu Bai didn’t answer. He just smiled and turned his gaze to the ground.
Liu Qingfeng was also a discerning person. Of course, he could see the situation at a glance. He cupped his hands and left, leaving Xu Bai here.
Xu Bai descended from the sky, and just as he stabilized his body, Chu Ling and the other two girls pounced on him, surrounding him in the middle and hugging him tightly.
“Alright, alright, don’t be so agitated. I’m safe and sound. There’s no problem at all. How could that guy do anything to me?”
Xu Bai comforted them one by one.
Chu Ling and the other two did not say anything. They only hugged Xu Bai tightly, but their bodies were trembling slightly.
Xu Bai took a while to calm them all down. At this moment, he turned to Xu Ling and stretched out a hand.
Xu Ling seemed to be motionless. When she saw Xu Bai’s hand, her eyes turned red. Tears flowed down her cheeks and onto the ground.
“Father!”
Xu Ling threw herself into Xu Bai’s arms and started crying. Her cold demeanor disappeared, and she kept tugging at Xu Bai, just like when she was young.
Xu Bai smiled.” You’re growing quite fast. You’re already a big girl, and your strength has reached the peak of the extraordinary state. Oh, you’re about to enter the Saint Realm. Your strength is growing faster than my father’s.””
To be honest, he was quite surprised. Back then, he was fast enough, but he was not as fast as Xu Ling.
Chu Ling said,”This little girl’s environment is much better than yours back then. If you had such a superior environment like her, you would definitely be faster.””
Ever since she was born, Xu Ling had been living in an extremely advantageous environment. Her father was a top-notch expert, an existence that even the martial arts world feared. Naturally, she had endless resources.
However, Xu Bai was different. Xu Bai’s current strength came from the bottom step by step. Although he relied on his cheat, it was mostly due to his own strength.
The environment they were in was different, so the speed of improvement was naturally different.
“Husband, do you want to stay for a few more days?” Ye Zi asked.”
When this question was asked, everyone present fell silent.
Xu Bai was very busy, and they knew that there was no doubt about it. Therefore, they chose to accept the fact that he had asked this question.
Xu Bai nodded and said,” I’m just a clone, so I have to leave soon. The last time I came out, I was dragged away by that Absolute Saint. This time, he doesn’t seem to want to deal with me, so I have more time. I need to find Emperor Chu and discuss something with him.”
Nothing happened this time, but Xu Bai had to hurry up. Who knew what the old man was up to?
This time, he had also thought of some countermeasures, but he needed the cooperation of the Chu Emperor and the others.
The ladies also knew that Xu Bai must have something urgent to attend to, so they did not try to keep him. After a while, Xu Bai directly soared into the sky and headed towards the Great Chu Imperial Palace.
Originally, Xu Ling had wanted to go along as well. After all, she had planned to use the Chu Emperor to increase her strength. However, Xu Bai did not let Xu Ling go for the time being.
He could go at any time. Right now, he had to talk about serious matters.
It was quite a distance from the barbarian fief to the Great Chu State, but Xu Bai was even faster. It didn’t take long for him to arrive at the royal study.
At this moment, the Chu Emperor and the other Saint Realm experts were already waiting. They all knew that Xu Bai had arrived.
Xu Bai didn’t waste any time. After entering the royal study, he said directly,””Everyone, I have an important matter that I need your help with. It might give that old fellow a heavy blow.”
