Chapter 339 - Leaving the Huashan Mountain
In the face of Ling Xiao's light smile, Yue Lingshan's expression did not look happy at all. Instead, she looked depressed, as if she was extremely unwilling to face some things.
Seeing that, Ling Xiao walked over to Yue Lingshan's side and wrapped his arm around Yue Lingshan's waist, and whispered: ”Shan Er, what are you thinking about?”
Yue Lingshan lifted her head, looked at Ling Xiao's face, and with a face full of complaint, she said, ”Big Brother Ling Xiao, you know this in your heart!”
Slightly patting Yue Lingshan's head, Ling Xiao smiled bitterly: ”Shan'er, as the Sect Leader, I am naturally responsible for the safety of the Huashan Mountain, and at the same time, I must think of a way to improve the development of the Huashan Mountain. Thus, this time, my departure is inevitable.”
Hearing that, Yue Lingshan did not reply, but threw herself into Ling Xiao's embrace. Seeing that, Ling Xiao hugged Yue Lingshan tightly, and remained silent for a while.
Until Yue Lingshan took the initiative to look up and said: ”Big Brother Ling Xiao, when are you leaving?”
”There are still two more days until things are settled.” Ling Xiao said.
After hearing this, Yue Lingshan buried her face in Ling Xiao's chest again, and said: ”Then can you accompany me today?”
”Sure, you can go anywhere you want.” After Ling Xiao heard this, he patted Yue Lingshan's back and said.
Just like this, Ling Xiao accompanied Yue Lingshan for a day, and at the same time, tried to appease him. After all, she didn't know when she would be able to come back again after this trip, and if Yue Lingshan couldn't bear it any longer and left the Huashan Mountain to find him, it would be very easy for him to encounter danger, and at that time, Ling Xiao might not even be able to make it in time.
”Big Brother Ling Xiao, although I promise you that I won't run around, I will work hard to learn the new technique. After I learn it, if you still haven't returned, I will look for you.” Yue Lingshan said with a serious face.
Hearing that, Ling Xiao laughed emotionally: ”Alright, when you learn the new technique, you will also be a powerful expert. If you want to find me at that time, it will be easy to find him.”
”Mhmm!” After Yue Lingshan heard this, her eyes were filled with confidence as she nodded her head forcefully.
On the second day, Ning Zhong sent someone to invite Ling Xiao to the great hall, saying that there was something he needed to do.
Arriving at the great hall, Ling Xiao could guess what Ning Zhong looked excited about.
”It seems like everything has been delivered.” Ling Xiao said with a smile.
Ning Zhongze nodded and said, ”Yes, Sect Leader Ling. At the beginning, I didn't dare to believe it, but after personally seeing those materials quietly lying on the ground, I was willing to believe it.”
”Yes, are those people here yet?” Ling Xiao asked.
Ning Zhong replied, ”No, I didn't. I just left everything behind.”
