Battle Through the Heavens: The Young Master of the Heavenly Serpent, intercepts Yao Lao at the star

Qinglin felt a lump in her throat and her eyes instantly reddened.

She bit her lip hard, trying not to cry out, but tears welled up in her eyes, blurring her vision.

She got it.

The person in front of her was not there to bully her or insult her.

Instead, they were seen as outcasts, just like her!

In this cold world, she finally found her kindred spirits, someone who could accept her.

"Come with me."

Bai Chuxiao's voice was as gentle as a spring breeze, brushing past Qinglin's ears, carrying an irresistible warmth and sense of security.

These four simple words completely shattered all of Qinglin's defenses.

Since her mother's passing, all the suffering she had endured, all the scorn and bullying she had suffered, seemed to find an outlet at this moment.

Tears could no longer be held back, and like beads from a broken string, they rolled down one by one, landing on the dirty back of my hands.

She looked at Bai Chuxiao with teary eyes, her small body trembling slightly, choking back sobs, but unable to utter a single word.

This is the first time in so long that someone has said to her, "Come with me."

For the first time, someone was willing to accept her, this "freak" whom everyone disliked.

Green Barbarian stood aside, watching the scene before him, his heart filled with doubt.

She didn't understand why her young master was so gentle to such an inconspicuous little girl, nor did she understand why the little girl was so excited when she saw the young master's snake spirit seal.

But she knew that the young master had his reasons for all his decisions, and besides, this was the person guided by the Serpent Spirit Seal, so she only needed to obey.

Little did she know that the seemingly weak, pitiful, and inconspicuous little girl in front of her was none other than the Jade Serpent Three-Flower Pupil that she and the Eight-Winged Black Serpent King had been searching for for decades!

At this moment, Qinglin's Azure Serpent Three-Flower Pupil has not yet awakened, and its bloodline power is hidden, so they cannot sense it.

Bai Chuxiao looked at Qinglin, who was crying and trembling all over, and his heart softened slightly.

He reached out and carefully wiped away the tears and dust from her face, his movements gentle, as if afraid of disturbing this poor little girl who had suffered so much.

"Don't be afraid, I'm here for you, no one will dare to bully you again."

The gentle words, like a ray of light in the darkness, instantly illuminated the gloomy world of Qinglin.

She lifted her tear-streaked face and looked into Bai Chuxiao's gentle eyes, which held no disgust or contempt, only boundless tolerance and tenderness.

The loneliness and fear that had lingered for so long vanished in that moment.

She nodded vigorously, her small hands gripping Bai Chuxiao's clothes tightly, as if she had grasped the only lifeline in the world, the hard-won ray of hope.

Become!

Bai Chuxiao knew very well that Qinglin was a pitiful person with a fragile and extremely sensitive heart. He only needed to give her a little warmth to completely enter her heart and make her follow him wholeheartedly.

After all, Xiao Yan's cultivation level has not regressed, and his two elder brothers have not come here to form a mercenary group to seek another way out, so Qing Lin has naturally not received any help or assistance from anyone.

"Come, I'll take you away from here, let's forget everything here, and you'll never suffer those hardships again."

As he spoke, Bai Chuxiao stretched out his arms, preparing to personally lift Qinglin's thin body.

But Qinglin looked somewhat awkward and shrank back, saying, "I... um... young master, I'm dirty..."

However, Bai Chuxiao firmly picked up Qinglin with one arm and wiped away her tears again with the other: "It's alright. You don't need to call me Young Master anymore, just call me Brother. What's your name?"

"I...I'm called Qinglin...Can I really call you brother from now on?" Qinglin lowered his head, looking very self-conscious.

"Of course, my name is Bai Chuxiao, and I'll be your older brother from now on."

Bai Chuxiao carried Qinglin as they slowly walked out of the alley, with Lü Man following closely behind. The three figures gradually lengthened in the setting sun...

......

Afterwards, Bai Chuxiao found an inn to stay at, bought Qinglin several new outfits, and first asked Lüman to take her to wash up.

Inside the main hall, Bai Chuxiao sat cross-legged, the Snake Spirit Seal in his hand still faintly sensing something.

"What exactly is that sensation deep in the desert? Could it be the Snake-People's royal city, pointing towards Queen Medusa?"

After Qinglin's verification, Bai Chuxiao felt it was very likely.

"Let's go take a look. After all, Queen Medusa is also one of the prey on this trip."

With the Serpent Spirit Seal in hand, even if Queen Medusa was a peak Dou Huang expert, she couldn't cause any trouble in Bai Chuxiao's hands.

A moment later, the bathroom door slowly opened, and Qinglin, wearing a new dress, timidly walked out.

Bai Chuxiao looked up and a gentle smile immediately appeared on his face: "Are you hungry? Come and eat."

He knew what kind of life Qinglin had lived before, that he must have been starving every day, so he had the inn prepare a large table of sumptuous dishes long ago.

Looking at the table laden with delicious food in the hall, Qinglin's mouth watered, but she didn't rush to feast without regard for her image. Instead, she obediently walked up to Bai Chuxiao and called out softly and hesitantly, "Brother...brother~".

Bai Chuxiao took in Qinglin's reaction. She clearly craved the food on the table, yet she was so obedient that it was heartbreaking.

"Alright, let's eat. Oh, and eat this first." Bai Chuxiao handed over a pill that he had prepared beforehand.

It's not some kind of treasure, just an ordinary first-grade pill, its purpose being to protect Qinglin's stomach and intestines.

A little one who has been malnourished and hungry for a long time will definitely not be able to handle eating so much meat and fish.

At this moment, Qing Lin was like a victim clinging to a rope; once it was loosened, she would fall into an abyss. This rope was Bai Chu Xiao.

Therefore, she had unconditionally trusted and relied on Bai Chuxiao, and fearing that she would lose this only glimmer of hope again, she swallowed the pill without hesitation.

"Brother, you eat first..." At the dining table, Qinglin saw that Bai Chuxiao hadn't moved, so she didn't even dare to reach out and touch the chopsticks.

But then Bai Chuxiao reached out and patted her head: "Alright, you don't need to be so formal in the future, eat up."

As he spoke, Bai Chuxiao picked up his chopsticks and placed a piece of meat on Qinglin's plate, then symbolically tasted it himself.

Seeing this, Qinglin felt relieved and began to eat heartily. During this time, Bai Chuxiao introduced his sect to her.

"Remember this, our sect is called Heavenly Serpent Palace, and that will be your home from now on. This is Elder Green Barbarian..."

Although Qinglin was eyeing the food in front of her, she immediately stopped what she was doing and listened very attentively as soon as Bai Chuxiao started to speak.

Seeing this, Bai Chuxiao could only say a few words briefly before falling silent.
