Senior Sister Red Bean, that's not what I meant…"
Xiao Yan was stunned.
He didn't expect his senior sister to say that. She was even obsessed with Jiang Minghan to this extent.
It had only been less than half a night.
She had never even seen Jiang Minghan before.
Jiang Minghan was the young master of the reclusive immortal clan. He had seen all kinds of saintesses and goddesses around him. How could he be interested in Xiao Hongdou?
In this life, Xiao Hongdou would be the one to face the tribulation.
Xiao Yan would naturally think of a way to protect her so that she wouldn't go astray and regret it for the rest of her life.
Immediately, his expression turned slightly solemn as he explained," Senior Sister, have you ever thought about why Jiang Minghan would treat you like this tonight? Since he wants to make up for protecting the Clear Void Holy Land, he only needs to give the order. There's no need to talk so much with you…"
"In fact, in my opinion, he was intentionally or unintentionally inquiring about you and Master.”
"Don't think that he's a good person.”
He spoke softly, revealing the many things that puzzled him.
Jiang Minghan was definitely not a good person.
He definitely had some motive for the Clear Void Holy Land. It was not as he said on the surface, just to compensate for the past 80,000 years ago.
"Junior brother, I know what you mean. I have never imagined that I would have anything to do with young lord Ming Han.”
"I just want to say that no matter what his goal is or what plans he has, it's an indisputable fact that he helped us and the Clear Void Holy Land.”
Xiao Hongdou frowned when she saw her junior brother's stubbornness. She shook her head and said," We must be grateful. We can't speculate about other people's evil intentions.”
She did not expect that her junior brother would say so many bad things about Jiang Minghan behind his back and harbor such great hostility towards him.
This was the first time that the two of them had such a huge difference of opinion on one matter and one person.
"Senior Sister, you can't be so kind. You always think that everyone is like you…Jiang Minghan has many secrets. He definitely has a motive for helping the Clear Void Holy Land. Don't trust him so easily…"
Xiao Hongdou was still in the same state. She didn't look sober at all.
Xiao Yan couldn't help but frown, feeling that the situation had become very troublesome.
Xiao Hongdou's way of thinking was deeply ingrained in her, and it was impossible for her to change it in a short period of time.
It seemed that he could only attack from another direction.
"Xiao Yan…"
Suddenly, Xiao Hongdou cut off Xiao Yan, who was about to continue speaking. The expression on her face had turned cold and unfamiliar.
This was the first time he had called Xiao Yan by his full name.
In the past, she would always call him Junior Brother or Xiaoyan.
"Everyone has their own secrets, and I never wanted to ask about them. "Even you, you've changed too much during this period of time. You've changed so much that I feel like a stranger to you. Do you think I won't be worried and afraid?”
"But I know that it's your secret. I trust you and know that you won't harm me.”
"But even you can't guarantee that you don't have any secrets from me. How can you expect others to have no secrets from me?”
She looked straight at the stunned Xiao Yan and spoke in a straightforward manner. She was no longer as weak as before. She spoke of all the doubts she had about Xiao Yan during this period of time.
Before this, Xiao Yan was just a silly youth who didn't know anything. He didn't even come into contact with cultivation.
However, after recovering from his illness, not only did he become smart, mature, and calm.
Even when he was in a big banquet tonight, he didn't have any stage fright and was extremely calm.
This afternoon, he went from a mortal who had never cultivated to a cultivator in the Physical Body Realm.
Xiao Hongdou had seen all these changes.
However, Xiao Yan didn't ask her about it, so she didn't ask.
Because…she was very afraid that the junior brother who had taken care of her since she was young and treated her like a family member was no longer the junior brother she used to be.
She was no stranger to the term possession.
He just didn't want to accept that he was a foolish junior brother since he was young. Who would come to possess him?
"Senior Sister…"
Hearing these words, Xiao Yan's face turned ugly and he couldn't believe it. He never thought that Xiao Hongdou would say something like this to him.
He was doing this for Xiao Hongdou's own good, but she didn't appreciate it at all. She even felt that he was hiding a secret from her.
This was completely different from the kind and gentle senior sister in his memory.
"It's so late at night. What are you two arguing about?”
At this moment, a drunken voice suddenly sounded from the gambling den.
An old Daoist dressed in tattered clothes, like a beggar, appeared. He limped over with a wine gourd hanging from his waist, and his entire body reeked of alcohol.
"Master…"
"You're finally awake."
Xiao Hongdou couldn't help but be pleasantly surprised when she saw who it was.
The crippled old Daoist in front of her was her master, whom she could not wake up no matter how hard she tried. His Daoist name was Qing Xuzi, but many people liked to call him Cripple Daoist or Wine Daoist.
Whenever he had spirit stones, he would go buy wine and then fall into a drunken stupor. It was common for him to sleep for months or half a year.
In this remote area of the Southern Palace Sacred City, it was extremely famous.
Qing Xuzi's drunken gaze shifted between Xiao Hongdou and Xiao Yan, as if he had noticed something.
"Eh…"
In the end, he clicked his tongue and withdrew his gaze from Xiao Yan.
"It seems that a lot of things have happened between the two of you while I was drunk. Xiaoyan's illness has also recovered?”
Xiao Yan looked at this cheap master in front of him and his expression returned to normal. He cupped his hands and said," Greetings, Master.”
In his memories, after this cheap master had picked him up, he had never cared about him again. Usually, it was Senior Sister Xiao Hongdou who took care of him.
Therefore, Xiao Yan did not have deep feelings for his master, Qing Xuzi.
"Mm, very good. Since you're not sick anymore, you should cultivate well in the future.”
Qing Xuzi nodded and did not ask him anything.
Xiao Yan didn't know if it was his imagination, but he felt that there was a deeper meaning in Qing Xuzi's eyes.
"Master, something good has happened these two days. Since you've woken up, you can make the decision…"
At this moment, Xiao Hongdou also spoke. She was extremely happy and planned to tell Qing Xuzi everything that had happened in the past two days.
The Clear Void Holy Land had been reduced to its current state. Master definitely did not want it to remain like this.
If he knew that the hidden immortal clan, the Jiang family, was willing to help them, he would definitely be very happy.
"Oh, what is it that made Little Red Bean so happy?”
Qing Xuzi's attitude toward Xiao Hongdou was completely different from Xiao Yan's. He smiled and asked.
"Could it be that Little Red Bean has met someone she likes and is getting married?”
Xiao Hongdou couldn't help but blush. She hurriedly explained," Master, don't talk nonsense. I'm talking about serious matters with you…"
At that moment, he told her about the secluded immortal clan's arrival in the Southern Palace Holy City and the many things that had happened at the banquet tonight.
However, after hearing these words, the smile on Qing Xuzi's face gradually disappeared. He even began to frown.
" At this time..." he muttered, his expression changing.
