Chapter 573 - Old Friend from Jianghai City (1/2)

…

Ye Xiao used his spiritual sense to scan the area. In the next second, he arrived at the area where everyone from Jianghai city was staying.

His old friends, such as the saber god and sword saint, Gu Hai’s family, and the Qin family, were all staying there.

As for the stronger existences like Emperor Jing, Emperor Yun, and the four venerable ones, they had already gone to other places to look for some opportunities to see if they could speed up their cultivation.

That was because, although they had the special care of the Xuan Yuan god clan and did not lack the resources allocated to them, there were still many things that they could not give them.

As an example, the enlightenment and guidance of a strong practitioner.

These were all extremely necessary, but they could not be easily obtained.

Ye Xiao also had no way to come over and teach them. His current cultivation was simply too high.

It was as if he was already one of the top university professors. Asking him to teach young children was like using a butcher’s knife to kill a chicken.

It was completely meaningless. It was just purely a waste of time.

It would not be too late for him to explain it to them when their cultivation rose in the future.

The most important thing at the moment was to ensure that the overall strength of the Xuan Yuan god clan could steadily rise.

However, Ye Xiao did not have to worry.

They could still eat well under the name of their fellow countrymen.

Who would not give face to the entire Xuan Yuan god clan on account of their name?

The few great aristocratic families would definitely think of fighting over them and becoming members of their own families so as to bring glory to their own families in the future.

That was because they were the closest and also the most numerous group of people who could withstand their own gifts. As long as they did not die and steadily rose in strength, their future achievements would definitely not be low.

Ye Xiao even heard that Azure Dragon seemed to have married into the Ning family and married Ning Zhiyuan’s sister.

Azure Dragon was no longer young. Although he was the youngest among the four venerable ones, he was still far older than Ning Zhiyuan’s sister.

The fixed coordinates that Ye Xiao had chosen were not Qin Yuyan’s residence, but near Gu Hai’s residence. It had been a long time since he had seen an old friend. He first looked for Gu Hai to catch up on old times, then looked for Qin Yuyan at the same time to teach her a little.

Done.

In the end, he had just arrived near Gu Hai’s house when a crying little girl pounced over suddenly and hugged Ye Xiao’s thigh.

“Sob, sob, sob… Uncle, marry me. I want to marry you.”

“…”

Was thatlittle girl not his goddaughter Mengmeng?

How did she end up like that?

Before he could speak, a familiar roar came from behind him in the next second.

“Gu Mengmeng, even if you’re married today, you still have to go to school! Trying to avoid school all day, are you trying to anger me to death? I’m sorry, sir. I’m sorry, my child doesn’t understand… Eh, f*ck, oh f*ck, isn’t this Ye Xiao?”

Ye Xiao was speechless.

“You only recognized me now?”

Gu Hai smiled embarrassedly and scratched the back of his head.

“Am I not muddled from my anger? This wretched girl, she doesn’t want to go to class and only knows how to play all day. She is simply trying to anger me to death.”

After saying that, he gently kicked Gu Mengmeng’s little buttocks.

“Wretched girl, don’t cry, this is your godfather!”

Gu Mengmeng raised her head, blinked her big eyes and said again,

“Eh, it’s really godfather. Godfather, are you here to pick Mengmeng up? Mengmeng doesn’t want to go to school.”

Ye Xiao squatted down and picked her up, rubbing her little head.

“Little girl, why don’t you want to go to school? If you don’t go to school, how can you improve your cultivation? How can you protect yourself in the future?”

Gu Mengmeng rolled her big round eyes and smiled,

“Daddy, Mommy and Godfather will protect me.”

Ye Xiao pinched her little nose.

“Then, if one day, we are old and can’t protect you anymore, and we need you to protect us, what will you do then?”

“Well…”

That question obviously stumped Gu Mengmeng and she did not know how to answer it.

“Anyway… Mengmeng just doesn’t want to go to school.”

She could only pout her little lips and resist shamelessly, maintaining her last bit of stubbornness.

“You wretched girl, you still dare to spout nonsense in front of your godfather. Do you know who your godfather is? He is the strongest person in the Xuan Yuan god clan. As his goddaughter, if you don’t study hard, wouldn’t the entire Xuan Yuan god clan laugh at him?”

Ye Xiao glared at him in annoyance.

“You talk too much. I don’t even mind others laughing at me.”

Gu Hai was helpless.

“You always pamper her.”

Ye Xiao smiled and said,

“No matter what, I’m still the little girl’s godfather. Can’t I just pamper her a little?”

He waved his hand and a string of candied fruits created from spiritual fruits was passed to Gu Mengmeng. The candied fruits were filled with spiritual energy and were very nutritious.

“Wow! Candied fruit!”

Gu Mengmeng took the candied fruit but she did not eat it first. Instead, she passed it to Ye Xiao’s mouth.

“Godfather, eat it first. Mengmeng, eat it later.”
