Fights Break Sphere: Thunder Shattered

Chapter 417 Your Smile Looks So Beautiful Right Now
Xuan Yi stared blankly at the pill that shimmered with a faint blue light. Her fingers twitched slightly, but she did not immediately take the blue pill.

She never imagined that Xiao Ling was refining pills for her own injuries.

A feeling of being moved welled up inside me.

"Aunt Xuan." When Xiao Ling saw that she didn't take it, a pair of small wings appeared behind her, and then she rose to the same height as her and handed the pill to her mouth.

Xuan Yi snapped out of her daze, looked at the still-warm pill in front of her and Xiao Ling's expectant eyes, slowly opened her red lips and swallowed the pill.

"How is it? Is it helping your injuries, Aunt Xuan? Besides, I learned this from Daddy and added some sweet herbs that won't affect the medicine's efficacy, so it will taste better."

Xiao Ling said with a grin, a subtle, almost imperceptible hint of something deeper flashing in her eyes.

Hearing her words, Xuan Yi was even more moved and reached out to hug her. You know, when refining pills, adding other medicinal materials at will can easily cause the cauldron to explode.

"It's useful, it's useful. I feel refreshed after eating it."

Xuan Yi touched Xiao Ling's delicate face and smiled sincerely.

However, she couldn't glean any information from Xiao Ling's words: Xiao Ling's alchemy skills were taught by Xiao Tian.

Recalling the eighth-grade pill that Xiao Ling's two little girls had mentioned to her before, she couldn't help but have a guess in her mind.

She turned her head and secretly glanced at Xiao Tian, ​​who was inside the battle qi shield, instructing Xiao Meng on how to cultivate battle techniques.

All of this was observed by Xiao Ling, who was in her arms, and a slight smile began to appear on her lips.

"Aunt Xuan, what are you thinking about?"

Xuan Yi pulled herself out of her thoughts and looked down at Xiao Ling in her arms: "Aunt Xuan is thinking about how to repay you, Xiao Ling'er, in the future."

"Lingling likes Aunt Xuan the most, so this is something I did voluntarily, and I don't need to repay her in any way."

Xuan Yi's body trembled slightly, unable to suppress the thought that had frozen his heart after he had tried to express his inner thoughts in vain.

The warmth and concern that Xiao Tian had shown her had unknowingly created a slight rift between them.

Now, it was melted by Xiao Ling's pure, spring-like warmth, and finally collapsed.

A knowing smile appeared on her beautiful face, so natural.

This is a smile, and also the ripples that naturally appear after the frozen lake of the heart has melted.

"Little Ling'er." Xuan Yi's hand gently landed on Xiao Ling's fluffy, smooth hair.

The movement was very light, like brushing against the softest down of a newborn chick.

As she touched him, she seemed to feel the warmth emanating from Xiao Ling's body.

The warmth seemed to flow rapidly through her limbs and bones, following her icy fingertips.

"Aunt Xuan, you look so beautiful when you smile now, hee hee."

Xiao Ling pinched the delicate cheek of the man in black and said with a grin.

"What, was my smile not pretty before?" Xuan Yi pretended to have a stern face.

"It looked good before, but I always felt like something was missing. Aunt Xuan, is something bothering you?"

Xiao Ling tilted her head, biting her finger as she tried hard to think of a way to describe it, but with their limited experience, they naturally found it difficult to come up with a suitable adjective.

After thinking for a while, she stopped thinking about it and reached out her little hand to pat Xuan Yi's shoulder: "Aunt Xuan, let bygones be bygones. There's no need to think about so many 'what ifs'. Father said that there are not so many 'what ifs' in life. What we should do is live well in the present and the future, and not let unhappy and sad things happen again."

Upon hearing this, Xuan Yi roughly understood what it meant. Thinking back, yes, the past is the past. So many years have passed, and it's time for him to move on.

At this moment, she even felt as if some kind of shackle had been broken on her mind and soul, and her mind gradually became clearer.

She even had a premonition that her fighting spirit and soul, which had not improved for a long time, seemed to have become active again, and there was hope for further progress.

Xiao Tian, ​​who was instructing Xiao Meng, glanced at the two of them, and the corners of his mouth curled up almost imperceptibly.

The arc was extremely small, almost like an illusion caused by light and shadow passing by, yet it carried a hint of all-knowing detachment.
Xuan Yi glanced at Xiao Ling, who was patting his shoulder and lecturing him in a condescending manner, her eyes filled with a serious expression of disappointment. He couldn't help but chuckle.

She pinched Xiao Ling's chubby cheeks, and under this touch, Xiao Ling's expression couldn't be maintained, instantly turning back into a cute and innocent look.

The two exchanged a glance and both broke into wide smiles. They then began to chat quietly, with Xuan Yi laughing from time to time and occasionally glancing at Xiao Tian.

……

"Little Ling'er, what is this? It's so strange." Xuan Yi asked softly as the medicine cauldron turned back into a bracelet.

Having lived for nearly a hundred years, I have never seen such a bizarre object.

"This one? This is called Cloud Dream Phoenix Gold. It can change according to its master's wishes."

Xiao Ling manipulated the Cloud Dream Phoenix Gold to begin changing its shape. It continuously transformed in Xiao Ling's hands, eventually becoming a slender longsword.

Seeing the curiosity in Xuan Yi's eyes, Xiao Ling handed her the long sword.

Xuan Yi took it, reached out and stroked the blade, feeling its strength and hardness: "Where did you get this?"

Upon hearing her words, Xiao Ling thought to herself: The nesting was a success.

She said in a clear voice, "This was something my father researched and gave to me. I don't know if he has any more."

When Xuan Yi heard that Xiao Tian had created this, she couldn't help but look at Xiao Tian in surprise, not expecting that he could actually come up with such a magical thing.

Before I could think any further, I heard Xiao Ling's words again.

"Father said that only the person closest to him can use this; no one else can use it."

"The closest person?"

"Yes, currently, besides Father, only Mengmeng, Mother, and I possess this."

After saying that, Xiao Ling silently added a "door" in her mind.

Xuan Yi instantly understood the meaning behind Xiao Ling's words. His eyes flickered slightly, and he finally handed the longsword back to Xiao Ling: "Don't take this out casually, lest someone covet it."

"Yes, Lingling knows this. I only took it out because I trusted Aunt Xuan. In Lingling's heart, Aunt Xuan is one of our own."

Aunt Xuan looked at Xiao Ling, who was smiling sincerely, and reached out to tap her head: "Your little mouth is as sweet as honey."

"Hehe." Xiao Ling took the Yunmeng Phoenix Gold and even manipulated it to change shape.

Xuan Yi looked at her slightly smug expression and couldn't help but touch his forehead helplessly: "Alright, alright, I know you have something good, no need to show off."
