C837 The situation of little flame
"Huh?" The maids were stunned. They could not believe what they had just heard. Was this a threat?
There had never been a person who dared to threaten them before. Although the young man in front of them was very talented, but Divine Phoenix Clan had a lot of outstanding heaven's pride experts. However, he had never seen anyone who could make the princess care about someone.
"Are you joking? My princess doesn't have the time right now, so she wouldn't come out to see you." A maid kindly reminded him.
Qin Xuan smiled mysteriously and said: "If you don't believe me, you can give it a try."
Seeing that Qin Xuan's expression did not seem to be fake, the servant girl blinked her eyes, her eyelashes flickered with a spirit light, and then lightly nodded her head and said: "Alright, but do not hold too much hope."
After she finished speaking, she turned and walked back to the pavilion, then Qing Yu came over to Qin Xuan's side and said softly: "Are you sure it's the person you're looking for? If it's not, then it's a bit embarrassing."
"Of course." Qin Xuan's face revealed an expression of incomparable confidence. At this moment, he was thinking about how to punish Huo Er later, to actually dare to ignore him, was simply outrageous!
"There's no need to report." A gentle voice came from the pavilion.
After which, the door of the pavilion was pushed open, and a woman in a red dress strolled out. This woman had creamy skin, long, shapely eyebrows, and a head of black hair that fell vertically to her waist.
Qin Xuan raised his head upon hearing the voice, and upon seeing the red figure, his expression froze for a moment.
"So this is the princess of the Divine Phoenix Clan. Her temperament is indeed outstanding and her charm is peerless." Qing Yu stared at the red-clothed woman and praised in his heart.
When the maid who was about to enter the pavilion and report the news saw the princess walk out, her expression changed as she asked in astonishment, "Princess?"
Huo Er's beautiful eyes carried a smile as her gaze directly fell on Qin Xuan's body. Her red lips slightly rose as she shyly shouted, "Elder Brother Xuan!"
As the gentle voice fell, the few servants' hearts trembled, their faces revealed exaggerated expressions, staring straight at Qin Xuan, feeling that it was inconceivable.
Their noble and beautiful princess was actually calling him 'big brother'? Just who was he?
"It really is her." Qing Yu heaved a sigh of relief in his heart. Fortunately, he did not recognize the wrong person, otherwise, it would be too awkward for him, to be laughed at by the people from Divine Phoenix Clan.
However, Qin Xuan's face was still extremely stern, and said indifferently: I wonder who your Elder Brother Xuan is?
"…" Everyone was speechless, and they all looked at Qin Xuan. This was a bit too much, the princess had taken the initiative, how could she put on airs?
However, Huo Er's face did not reveal a hint of anger, but instead had a face full of smiles. She gently stepped forward, and her white jade hands nimbly wrapped around Qin Xuan's arm, swaying gently, as she spat out a voice that sounded like sleep talk, "I was wrong."
"I was wrong …" The crowd felt their bodies go limp, this voice was as gentle as water, it was as though they wanted to melt their bodies. The maidservants looked at each other, strange expressions on their faces. Since when was the princess so gentle?
Even though Qin Xuan had already made up his mind long ago to properly punish this girl, when he heard this voice, his heart couldn't help but warm up. He rubbed between his eyebrows and muttered: "There's really nothing I can do about you."
"Hee hee, then you're willing to acknowledge me now?" Huo Er stared at Qin Xuan with his pair of big sparkling eyes, looking somewhat mischievous.
"Guess?" Qin Xuan looked at Huo Er with interest. This girl, knew how to use words against him?
Qing Yu and the other servants looked at the scene in front of them, their expressions becoming extremely fascinating to behold. This pair of siblings was truly different from the others, even the conversation they had with each other was so fresh and refined.
"Alright, I won't tease you anymore. I'll take you to see someone." Huo Er said in an extremely mysterious manner.
"Your teacher?" Qin Xuan suddenly remembered that Huo Er was inside chatting with her teacher. Could it be that she wanted him to meet her teacher?
"Well, you'll be surprised to see him." Huo Er laughed sweetly, and then pulled Qin Xuan to the pavilion.
"Wait." Qin Xuan suddenly shouted. He glanced at Qing Yu and said: "This is a friend of mine, he has come with me."
After Qing Yu heard this, he immediately looked towards Qin Xuan with an expression of gratitude. He finally gave Qin Xuan some face and did not call him a helper.
How intelligent was Huo Er, she naturally understood what Qin Xuan meant, her beautiful eyes looked towards a maid at the side as she instructed: "Take him to rest well."
"Yes, Princess." The servant bowed, then walked towards Qing Yu and whispered: "Follow me."
"Thank you very much." Qing Yu nodded slightly, then followed the servant and left.
"Come, I'll bring you to meet my teacher." Huo Er pulled Qin Xuan's hand and headed towards the pavilion. Qin Xuan's expression was somewhat helpless, and grumbled: "She's already a princess, at least pay attention to her image, with so many people watching …"
"Who cares? I don't like being a princess."
"As long as you're happy." Qin Xuan said lovingly.
"…" As their voices grew further and further away, the remaining maids' expressions became even more peculiar. Their hearts were filled with emotion. It seemed that this young master was not simple at all.
"Teacher, we're here." Huo Er shouted from outside the door.
"Bring him in." A voice filled with Qi came out, causing Qin Xuan to freeze when he heard it, why did this voice have a strange familiarity?
Huo Er smiled mysteriously at Qin Xuan, and then, he pushed open the door and walked in. Qin Xuan hesitated for a moment, and then followed him in.
The moment he stepped into the room, Qin Xuan's gaze focused. The room's decorations were extremely elegant, the color was bright and beautiful, and there seemed to be a fragrance in the air, it was extremely refreshing.
When Qin Xuan turned to look at the side, his expression immediately froze. His face was filled with shock, it can't be, what a coincidence …
That slightly obese figure, that kind smile and those small eyes, of course Qin Xuan didn't forget that the person in front of him was actually the Che Ting who had controlled the spatial spirit formation that day.
"Senior Che …" Although Qin Xuan was extremely shocked in his heart, he still respectfully called out to her out of politeness.
"Surprised?" Che Ting smiled as he looked at Qin Xuan. His eyes were sharp as if he had already seen through everything.
"Yes." Qin Xuan nodded his head honestly. He had never thought that the expert he had only met once would actually be Huo Er's teacher. It was simply inconceivable.
"After Huo Er came to the Divine Phoenix Clan, she took me as her master. It seems that it was fated for you and me to meet each other here." Che Ting said while smiling, and looked at Qin Xuan with extreme admiration.
"Thank you senior for taking care of me all these years, Huo Er." Qin Xuan's expression became solemn, and cupped his hands towards Che Ting.
"What are you saying? Huo Er is not only your younger sister, she is also my most beloved disciple." Che Ting casually waved his hand. Then, he suddenly thought of something, and a trace of dejection flashed past his eyes as he sighed: "However, all these years, I as a Master was indeed incompetent, and had let her suffer."
"Teacher." Huo Er's face changed slightly as he shook his head at Che Ting, as if he did not want him to continue.
Qin Xuan noticed that something was amiss, and faintly guessed at something else. He stared at Che Ting and asked: "Senior, you mean to say that Huo Er has not been doing well these past few years?"
"Yes, it is indeed very bad." Qin Xuan was Huo Er's older brother, so he did not want to hide anything. Furthermore, with Qin Xuan's talent that he had displayed, he might be able to help.
"Actually, I've been doing quite well all this time. You don't have to worry about me." Huo Er smiled as he looked at Qin Xuan. The smile on his face was extremely innocent and brilliant;
Qin Xuan glanced at Huo Er, and said with a stern expression: "You know my personality."
As his voice fell, Huo Er's expression became startled. Seeing the resolution in Qin Xuan's eyes, she immediately lowered her head, her small hands nervously pinching the hem of her clothes, as if she had tacitly agreed to something.
"There really is a problem." Qin Xuan suddenly felt a heartache. Could it be that all these years, Huo Er had been enduring in the Divine Phoenix Clan?
If it was really like this, he would definitely make the Divine Phoenix Clan pay a heavy price.
"Senior, please tell me. Junior will definitely be deeply grateful." Qin Xuan cupped his fist and said to Che Ting. He did not ask Huo Er, but with Huo Er's personality, he would definitely not tell him the truth, lest he did something rash.
"It's a long story." Che Ting let out a long sigh, and said slowly, "Huo Er has lived outside for dozens of years, and to a certain extent, his relationship with the Divine Phoenix Clan has already weakened. Even though he is still honored as a princess upon returning, his status is far inferior to the other princesses."
"Since that's the case, why did you bring her back? Is this how the Divine Phoenix Clan does things?" Qin Xuan's words were intense, his eyes flickered with a sharp light, and his anger towards the Divine Phoenix Clan became even stronger.
Although Che Ting had only said those words lightly, Qin Xuan could still imagine that Huo Er had experienced many injustices, otherwise he would not have come to live in such a remote place.
Remembering the arrogant attitude of Xun Zheng and the others from before, Qin Xuan suddenly thought of many things.
In that moment, an angry flame rose from Qin Xuan's heart. If he knew about this matter in advance, he would not have been so merciful to Xun Zheng and the rest.
"Of course, there are still many people in the clan supporting Huo Er. After all, her identity is not ordinary." Che Ting suddenly added, and his tone revealed a profound meaning.
"Not ordinary?" Qin Xuan sneered. If he was truly not ordinary, he would not have fallen to such a state.
"Don't be angry Elder Brother Xuan, I came here of my own volition. I don't like the conflicts within the clan, so I decided to come here to cultivate." Huo Er explained.
"Voluntary?" Qin Xuan's eyes flashed with a look of astonishment, then looked at Che Ting, only to see him nodding his head slightly in acknowledgement.
Qin Xuan lightly nodded, and then looked at Huo Er with an extremely serious gaze, and said: "You must remember, as long as the Elder Brother Xuan is here, no one in this world would dare bully you!"
