At this moment, Zhong Ling's heart was on Xiao Le. Naturally, she did not want to be separated from him. She readily agreed to accompany Xiao Le to the capital of the Zhao Song Empire.
"Tomorrow, I will invite a matchmaker to propose marriage to your father. We will officially get married in a few years.”Xiao Le said to Zhong Ling with a smile.
"Brother Xiao is the best," Zhong Ling said happily.”
Another night of spring. At night.
The next day, Xiao Le went to invite a famous matchmaker in Dali City. He gave them enough money and asked them to go to Myriad Tribulation Valley to propose marriage. Xiao Le took Zhong Ling with him and left first to visit Zhong Ling's parents.
In the past few days, many things had happened in Myriad Tribulation Valley. In summary, the four villains wanted to fight for the throne of Dali Kingdom. In addition, Zhong Wanchou, who was dissatisfied with Duan Zhengchun's cuckold, had a fight with the Dali Royal Family.
After the argument ended, Zhong Wanchou found out that his precious daughter, whom he had always cared for meticulously, was actually Duan Zhengchun's child, and his wife could not forget her old lover. At this moment, Zhong Wanchou's mood was undoubtedly on the verge of collapse.
When Zhong Wanchou saw Xiao Le and Zhong Ling, his gaze was very complicated. Then, he decisively drew his saber and wanted to kill Zhong Ling. At the same time, he wanted to kill Zhong Ling's mother, Gan Baobao.
Xiao Le casually waved his hand and sent Zhong Wanchou, who had very ordinary martial arts, away. Then, he brought the confused Zhong Ling and her mother, Gan Baobao, and left the Myriad Calamity Valley.
Outside the valley, Gan Baobao roughly told him about what had happened between her and Duan Zhengchun. In the end, she concluded," Ling 'er, your father is Duan Zhengchun. Duan Yu is your half-brother."”
Zhong Ling's expression was extremely complicated at this moment. There was disbelief and a little joy. The complicated part was that her father, who had raised her for many years and had deep feelings for her, was not her biological father. She was glad that she did not fall in love with Duan Yu. Otherwise, it would have been a tragedy.
"Mother, this is Xiao Le. I have already fallen in love with him. This time, Brother Xiao plans to propose marriage to you.”After a moment of silence, Zhong Ling composed herself. She had not forgotten her true purpose this time.
At this moment, Gan Baobao looked at Xiao Le and sized him up carefully. A hint of admiration appeared in her eyes as she thought to herself, What a beautiful young man.”
"Hello, Auntie. I'm Xiao Le. I was born in Shu Zhong. I fell in love with Ling 'er at first sight and have already decided to marry her. In order not to affect her reputation, I plan to propose to you first.
The matchmaker's betrothal gift that he had prepared earlier was on the way back, but he did not know what to do now.”Xiao Le cupped his hands at Gan Baobao and said with a smile.
Gan Baobao sighed. Why wasn't Duan Zhengchun as responsible as the youth in front of her? He said a bunch of sweet nothings, but he wasn't willing to take any responsibility.
"Xiao Le? As you can see, the situation is a little complicated now. Ling 'er will follow you for the time being. We Jianghu people don't have so many red tape. When you two are officially married, remember to inform me.”Gan Baobao let her thoughts wander for a while before sighing.
After saying that, Gan Baobao ignored Xiao Le and turned to her daughter,"Ling 'er, you'll be with Young Master Xiao for this period of time. I still have something to do. I'll come and see you again in a while."”
After saying that, Gan Baobao took one last look at Xiao Le and Zhong Ling. She sighed, activated her movement technique, turned around, and left, but no one knew what she was going to do.
Zhong Ling originally wanted to ask him to stay, but she didn't have the time.
Xiao Le did not say anything. He knew that the girl was feeling a little depressed at this moment, so he directly pulled her into his arms and gave her a warm and thick hug.
After a long while, Xiao Le said,"Are you better?"”Zhong Ling was still leaning against Xiao Le's arms and nodded gently.
"Then let's go back and make some preparations. Tomorrow, we will set off for the Zhao Song Empire. If we take a carriage, it will take at least ten days to travel from Dali to the Zhao Song Empire's capital.”Xiao Le said.
Zhong Ling naturally did not have any objections. The two of them stayed outside the Myriad Tribulation Valley for a while before riding back to Dali City. The young girl's worries came and went quickly. On the way, Xiao Le told Zhong Ling a joke or two from time to time, which quickly made her happy.
"Eh?" Xiao Le stopped his horse by the side of the official road. He looked at the group of people not far ahead and let out a soft gasp.
"What's wrong, Brother Xiao?" Zhong Ling said as she followed Xiao Le's gaze.
In front of the official road, there were four tall, muscular, bald monks wearing gray monk robes. They were carrying a sedan chair and walking forward at a moderate speed.
On the palanquin sat a man dressed in yellow. The monk in the monk's robe was less than fifty years old. He wore plain clothes and straw shoes. There was nothing special about him, but his face was in high spirits. There seemed to be a faint glow flowing around him.
"Tubo's Imperial Advisor, Jiu Mozhi, possesses the martial arts realm of a grandmaster. He's a peak figure among the first-rate experts of the pugilistic world.”Xiao Le lowered his head and looked at Zhong Ling as he said with a smile.
Seeing the interest in Zhong Ling's eyes, Xiao Le moved his lips closer to Zhong Ling's ear as he rode forward. He softly explained Jiu Mozhi's simple life to her.
Jiu Mozhi was a gifted genius with a photographic memory. He was obsessed with martial arts. After being taught the Flaming Saber by the master of Ningma Sect in Tubo, he wiped out the black sects in Tubo and shocked the western frontier. His skills and knowledge had reached an extremely high realm. He had great wisdom and was proficient in Buddhism. Every five years, he would open an altar to preach scriptures.
Later on, he became friends with Murong Bo, the descendant of the Murong Clan in Gusu. He exchanged the cultivation method of the Flaming Saber Technique for it, allowing him to learn the ultimate technique of the Shaolin Sect.
At this point, Xiao Le and Zhong Ling had already surpassed Jiu Mozhi and the others.
"The two benefactors in front, please wait.”At this moment, a deep voice spoke. The owner of this voice was obviously Xiao Le and Zhong Ling.
