Chapter 111 Sun Xiaohong and Her Heart Are Connected

It was almost midnight when they returned to the courtyard. Sun Baifa and Li Xunhuan sat facing each other. Without the polluted air, the two enjoyed wine with three small dishes.

Seeing Lu Ming leading his granddaughter back, Sun Baifa's expression turned rather unpleasant. This brat had embarrassed him quite a bit, yet he hadn't shown any anger.

Seeing Sun Xiaohong being led by the hand with such a blissful expression, Li Xunhuan felt a strange sense of loss, as if his own destiny had been stolen from him. He shook his head slightly, dismissing the feeling. Lu Ming was his friend and cousin-in-law; he was willing to give his friend anything he wanted!

That's why Li Xunhuan is considered a true brother. Even if he were to be killed, Li Xunhuan wouldn't offer his neck for execution, but he also wouldn't kill him outright.

What a good man! No wonder he was being held at gunpoint!

"Greetings, Senior, Brother Li. Judging from your white hair and youthful face, and your rosy complexion, it seems your old injuries have healed."

"After taking medicinal diet for half a month to replenish the deficiency, the path of martial arts will surely make further progress."

[Fulfill Sun Xiaohong's wish and obtain a Heart-to-Heart Jade Pendant (Note: Please don't post these randomly anymore!)]

Looking at Sun Xiaohong's joyful face, she never expected that Sun Bai's hair would be cured, and her wish would be fulfilled. This wish was truly pure and simple; only a filial granddaughter would have such a wish.

"Hmph, thanks to you, this old man almost died in the latrine!"

When this matter was brought up, Sun Baifa felt embarrassed, and Li Xunhuan also felt embarrassed, as it was indeed not a good thing.

The three sat down, and Sun Xiaohong obediently went to the kitchen to cook, her mind now focused on Lu Ming. She wanted to learn how to be a good wife and serve her husband well. Fortunately, Yue Lingshan was very gentle, and Lin Shiyin wasn't the type to be jealous or sullen, so her joining in wouldn't do any harm.

Lu Ming took out a jar of Fenjiu liquor: "I bought this while shopping earlier, it's not bad. My master wrote to me saying that I need to go to the Dragon Guard Manor. All the Five Mountains Sword Sects except Hengshan Sect have been recruited. I have a feeling that something is not right here."

Sun Baifa exhaled a smoke ring, then downed the wine in one gulp. "Not bad, it's good wine!"

"Don't overthink it. The Dragon Guard Manor has recruited many martial arts practitioners, all in preparation for a military campaign against the Qing Dynasty. They're offering huge rewards to get them to risk their lives. It's clear the court is determined to reclaim the lost territory and avenge their humiliation."

As the Vice Minister of Revenue, Li Xunhuan was in charge of the treasury and was particularly sensitive to the war situation. He had no ambition to make a name for himself in the officialdom; he simply had nowhere else to go for the time being, so he came to the capital to take a look. He downed the wine in one gulp, savoring its spicy yet sweet flavor, and wondered if it contained some medicinal herbs?

"This time, not only the Dragon Guard Manor, but also the Pingnan Prince's Mansion and the Zhennan Prince's Mansion are involved. The Zhennan Prince's Mansion wants the southern border of Sichuan, which is also the territory of the Five Mountains Sword Sect. The Pingnan Prince's Mansion is also a major force in this external campaign and has its own needs as well."

"Your Highness's Gong Jiu's martial arts are no less than mine; you'd better be careful if you encounter him."

Gong Jiu was a master who could make Lu Xiaofeng run away in fear, but he had some eccentricities in his personality. He was also the only one who could make Ximen Chuixue, who followed the path of the ruthless sword, feel nauseous and vomit. If he hadn't brought this upon himself, there really wouldn't be many people who could rival him.

No wonder they say the capital is a treacherous place. The Prince of Pingnan's mansion isn't particularly famous; it was even raided by the notorious Embroidered Bandit last time. But the young master's teacher is very famous: Ye Gucheng, the Lord of Baiyun City. He created his own unique sword technique, "Flying Immortal from Beyond the Heavens," and everyone who has seen it is dead.

Without a doubt, this is a peerless swordsman. There are many top-tier swordsmen in the world, such as Ye Gucheng and Ximen Chuixue.

Mu Daoren, Xue Yiren, and others—each of them is a powerful figure in their own right.

Lu Ming planned to return to his homeland later and inquire at the Rumor-Busting Platform; the situation was far too complex. Although he was no longer afraid of a massive army, he couldn't possibly kill them all by himself. The unique effect of military formations was to minimize the lethality of martial arts masters; they often couldn't kill many before their internal energy was depleted and their stamina exhausted.

But it's impossible to keep him here. Only when he has a safe retreat will he be curious about what's going on here.

Judging from Li Xunhuan's expression, he seemed unaware, or perhaps unwilling to know. This man was different from Lu Xiaofeng and the others; he didn't possess that intense curiosity—that could be deadly!

"The Iron-Blooded Marquis of Dragon Guard Manor is not someone to be trifled with. If you go there, be extra careful. By the way, how come your medical skills have improved so dramatically?"

Lu Ming smiled and said, "Because the Lianhua Precious Mirror also contains medical and poison techniques, Shiyin often discusses medical-related issues with me, which is why she has achieved such success. It's all thanks to hard work and dedication!"

These words left the two speechless. The reason why geniuses are geniuses is that, in addition to their talent, they work harder than ordinary people, which leads to their dazzling achievements.

He definitely sweated, but it wasn't Lu Ming's sweat. He didn't sweat at all; he just relied on the entry.

There was some sweat and effort, but not much.

The three of them chatted until late at night before leaving.

However, before leaving, Lu Ming suggested taking Sun Xiaohong with him. He said he could protect her, and that Sun Baifa would definitely need to heal and cultivate, so he wouldn't have much time to take care of his granddaughter. Taking her away in advance would also fulfill his wish.

Looking at his blushing granddaughter, what could Sun Baifa say? He could only wave his hand and let the two of them leave.

I can't think about this. It makes me feel depressed. My granddaughter is going to be mutilated. How can I be happy about that?

He took Sun Xiaohong back to the Yue Lai Inn in the east of the city, took out a pure white jade pendant and handed it to her: "Xiaohong, this is my family heirloom. I don't usually give it to just anyone. You are my wife, so I'm giving it to you. From now on, we are husband and wife!"

Sun Xiaohong was at a loss. The jade pendant was obviously very valuable. She searched all her body and only took out a comb. Her pretty face flushed as she said, "Brother Lu, I don't have anything valuable. This comb was left to me by my mother. I'm sorry, Brother Lu."

Lu Ming gently pulled her into his arms and stroked her cheek: "Silly girl, there's nothing to be sorry about. You're my wife, it's only right that I cherish you. Everything you give me is the best, and I love it."

"Brother Lu!"

Sun Xiaohong couldn't hold back her emotions; her heart was filled with gratitude. He didn't mind her looks, nor did he mind that she hadn't brought a dowry. At this moment, she would be willing to die for Lu Ming!

"Alright, Xiaohong, stop crying. Look, the moon is high in the sky; it's time to sleep!"

"Yes, please cherish me, my husband!"

The bright moonlight shines before my bed, and two pairs of shoes lie on the floor.

The rain pattered on the banana leaves all night, and when it stopped, the clouds dispersed. The joy I felt was indescribable.

The guest rooms downstairs were incredibly noisy, vibrating all night. Damn it, they're not sleeping at all, and they won't let anyone else sleep! That's inconsiderate!

They're going to have a competition tomorrow to make a name for themselves! Don't they have any sense of morality or public spirit?!

The next day, Lu Ming, suppressing his anger, looked at the radiant Sun Xiaohong and told her the secret of the jade pendant. He then took her to his home and introduced her to Yue Lingshan and Lin Shiyin.

Upon arriving at the community center, Sun Xiaohong remained in a daze, still not fully recovered. It was all so magical, so magical, that she didn't know what to say.
