Chapter 20: Goodbye

Name:Martial Cultivator Author:
Hearing that young girl solemnly say this and repeating it once more, Lin Yuan's expression did not look too good. Then, he looked somewhat disappointed. Why did you reclaim the dilemma that was originally already resolved by that youth in black with a slash of his saber?

Being so incapable of retaining your composure, how could you become the Xie Clan's family head?

Or was it that in your mind, you never had the idea of becoming the Xie Clan's family head?

For some time, Lin Yuan's mind was full of doubts. Just what ideas did this teenage girl who was highly regarded by both White Deer's Xie Clan and the Divine Capital's Xie Clan have in mind? Or did countless people from both White Deer's Xie Clan and the Divine Capital's Xie Clan misjudge her?

But even if he had many doubts, Lin Yuan did not overly express them. He just said softly, "Since Miss has spoken, then I believe you can bear the consequences." Fịndd new updates at novelhall.com

He was pointing out that what happened today would definitely transmit back to the Divine Capital.

At that time, it could not be blamed on me, Lin Yuan.

Xie Nandu nodded her head slightly without a care. Since she dared to say this, then she naturally would not be worried about the so-called consequences.

Lin Yuan straightened up and asked, "Miss, it has been delayed for a long time now. Will you be leaving this place with us right away and heading to the Divine Capital?"

Xie Nandu frowned and did not speak immediately, Instead, she looked toward Chen Chao.

Chen Chao was already sitting in front of the stove at this time. He could not say that he liked these two uninvited guests, but he naturally did not detest them either. He was not stupid, he was very clear that this one elderly and one youngster in front of him were not from the same camp as that Xie Boan whom he killed.

Xie Nandu asked, "After I leave, will the Divine Capital stop in time and not take action against him?"

Although these few tests were directed at her, the one who resolved them was all Chen Chao. Xie Nandu was also worried that after she left, there would still be people from the Divine Capital who would take cheap shots. Facing a behemoth like the Divine Capital's Xie Clan, no matter how talented Chen Chao was, he would ultimately be at a disadvantage.

"Please rest assured, Miss. Since Miss has already passed the tests, then the tricks from the Divine Capital will no longer continue too. This young man naturally won't be implicated anymore..."

Lin Yuan thought about it, but he still did not finish the remaining half of the sentence. Firstly, he felt that it was meaningless. Secondly, he also felt that based on someone as clever as Xie Nandu, she would definitely understand the latter half of the sentence whether he said it or not.

Xie Nandu nodded her head and then said, "You guys go outside and wait for me."

Lin Yuan nodded his head and did not say anything either. Turning around, he brought that young man who did not talk the entire time out. The two arrived at the doorway and just happened to see the man opposite walking out of his courtyard while carrying a big bowl of rice as he sat on his doorstep.

Lin Yuan looked at the man with some interest. Who would have expected that the man carrying a large bowl would speak rudely the moment he opened his mouth, "What the hell are you staring at?!"

The young man furrowed his brows and laughed coldly. He thought to himself, barren hills and turbulent waters indeed produced troublemakers. He was just about to open his mouth but was stopped by the Lin Yuan in front of him with a wave of his hand.

This cultivator whose realm was not low just smiled slightly as he looked at the man in front of him and asked, "Is this bowl of rice tasty?"

Although he seemed to be asking about that bowl of rice in the man's hand, the young man faintly sensed that there was some deeper meaning. But sadly, the man seemed to have a natural dislike for Chen Chao who was staying opposite of him. Even the people who walked out of his door were also snubbed by him, "If you want to eat, go home and ask your wife to cook!"

His words were still completely blunt.

The young man was already filled with rage and almost losing control of himself.

Very soon, she recollected her emotions. Revealing a beaming face anew, the young girl reached her hand out to remove that silver hairpin that had accompanied her for many years. Then she looked at Chen Chao.

Chen Chao hesitated for a moment, but he still stretched out his palm.

Hence, the young girl placed that silver hairpin in his palm. Her petite face was slightly red as she whispered, "Carry it with you. If you encounter a problem that you can't resolve one day, find someone to give it to me. Even if I, Xie Nandu, pay with my life, I absolutely won't decline too!"

Chen Chao raised his eyebrows and asked, "This silver hairpin probably has quite the background, right?"

Xie Nandu shook her head and said softly, "It's an ordinary silver hairpin. Keep it well."

Chen Chao frowned. Thinking about it, he still kept it in his bosom.

Seeing how Chen Chao looked, the young girl seemed very satisfied. Hence, she sat in front of the stove again. Of course, it was still that old chair.

These few days, Chen Chao was already used to letting this young girl in front of him have the only chair in the house.

"How many demons have you killed these few years?"

It was actually already getting late. But, the young girl wanted to stay a little longer here, just a little longer.

She was very clear that this place was more comfortable than White Deer ancestral shrine and definitely more comfortable than the Divine Capital too.

Chen Chao flipped the sweet potato on the stove before saying, "Can't remember anymore."

Xie Nandu smiled slightly and said, "It's fine, I don't remember how many books I've read too."

Xie Nandu suddenly asked, "Do you think that studying or cultivation is more painful?"

"I don't know whether or not cultivation is painful. Either way, being a martial artist is really very painful. Presumably, no matter how hard studying is, it can't be worse than being a martial artist."

Having cultivated these few years, he really felt that there was nothing more painful in this world than being a martial artist.

Xie Nandu smiled and did not say anything. She just remembered these few years in the White Deer ancestral shrine for no reason and was somewhat absentminded. After leaving this small courtyard, it seemed like it would really be leaving home.

Seeing that it was getting late, Xie Nandu stood up. But before she could turn around, that youth who was sitting already handed out the sweet potato that had already been cooked on the stove.

Looking at the sweet potato, Xie Nandu's eyes narrowed like crescents.

After sending her out of the door, Chen Chao was silent for a while as he stood at the doorway. Suddenly, he said, "Miss Xie, actually, when we first met, I thought that you were like a flower."

A pear blossom.

Xie Nandu smiled. Holding the sweet potato in her hand, she peeled the skin seriously and took a bite before saying somewhat regretfully, "In the future, I won't be able to eat such delicious sweet potatoes."

Then, she waved her hand and just stepped across the door sill without holding an umbrella, walking forward. Soon, she was covered by wind and snow.

Chen Chao stood where he was and silently sent her off.
