"Brother Xuan, you're back!"
Inside the Lu family's courtyard, Zhou Xuan, after hearing Xie Feng's report on the battle results, was quite satisfied and returned to his own residence with everyone.
He himself immediately went to find Lu Ling'er, who was meticulously preparing dinner for him in the kitchen.
Seeing Zhou Xuan return safely, Lu Ling'er was also extremely happy.
She immediately put down the kitchen utensils in her hands and rushed to Zhou Xuan's side.
Then, she threw herself into Zhou Xuan's arms!
Although she knew Zhou Xuan's strength had recovered and there should be no problem with him going out for business, due to what happened before, she was still somewhat anxious.
She was afraid Zhou Xuan would encounter another accident.
Therefore, her state throughout the day had not been good.
She could only choose to do other things to try and distract herself.
Fortunately, Zhou Xuan had now returned safely.
She could finally put her worried heart at ease!
"Silly girl!"
"Worried again!"
"Didn't I tell you my strength has returned!"
"What?"
"Don't you have confidence in your man!"
"Are you afraid your man will be carried off by a wild wolf?"
Seeing Lu Ling'er like this, Zhou Xuan naturally understood the psychological pressure this little girl had endured throughout the day he was away.
So, he caught Lu Ling'er as she leaped towards him.
Then, he held her tightly in his arms!
Allowing her to greedily breathe in the scent of him.
At the same time, Zhou Xuan's voice was as playful as possible,
To ease the tension in the little girl's nerves after a day of worry!
"Bah!"
"Whose man are you!"
"You haven't even married me yet, and you're already saying that!"
"Shameless!"
"Besides, who's worried about you!"
"I was just thinking, you've been out for so long today!"
"Did you not handle your business properly, but went off to fool around with some other girls!"
"No, I need to have a good sniff!"
"In case you're really dishonest!"
"Then I won't forgive you lightly!"
Hearing Zhou Xuan's words, Lu Ling'er's face first turned red.
Then, she started to argue stubbornly, refusing to admit she was worried about Zhou Xuan.
Finally, she even brought out her trump card, attempting to turn the tables and make Zhou Xuan falter.
But unfortunately, this series of actions of hers,
Only made Zhou Xuan find her even more adorable,
And could not achieve any other effect.
"Alright, I'm not playing with you anymore!"
"Let's talk about something serious!"
"Today, I actually went to get revenge on the Liu family and the Wang family!"
"Coupled with the fact that I destroyed the Zhao family a few days ago!"
"My enemies in Cangyun City have basically all been dealt with!"
"But as you know!"
"Grandpa said back then!"
"The mastermind behind the destruction of our Zhou family might be a powerful figure from a family in Shangjing City!"
"And after investigating clues for a period of time, I can basically confirm!"
"This powerful figure is from the Qin family in Shangjing City!"
"That means I will inevitably stand in opposition to the Qin family!"
"You probably have some understanding of how terrifying the Qin family's influence is!"
"So, I now..."
"So you now want to cut ties with me, or with our Lu family!"
"And then go to Shangjing alone to seek revenge against the Qin family!"
"If you succeed later, you'll come back to find me!"
"If you don't succeed, then let me forget you!"
"And find someone else to marry!"
"Am I right?"
"This is your plan, isn't it?"
Before Zhou Xuan could finish speaking, Lu Ling'er, who was still leaning in his arms, suddenly interrupted him.
Hearing Lu Ling'er's words, Zhou Xuan was a little surprised.
He didn't understand how Lu Ling'er knew his thoughts.
It was as if she understood him better than the worms in his stomach!
"That's right, that's what I was going to say!"
"Since you already know!"
"Then let's clear the air first!"
"I don't want to..."
Seeing that Lu Ling'er had already guessed his thoughts,
Zhou Xuan decided not to hide it anymore!
In fact, he had already had this idea long ago.
But before, he just didn't know how to explain this matter to Lu Ling'er.
It wasn't until today, in the Li family's hall,
When he truly understood the terrifying strength of the Qin family from Qin Wan'er's mouth,
That Zhou Xuan knew he had to say it!
Because if it was just him alone,
Zhou Xuan was actually not too worried about this matter.
No matter how terrifying the Qin family's strength was, so what!
With his Creation Realm cultivation, even if he couldn't win, couldn't he still run?
To put it another way, even if the Qin family really went crazy,
And sent a large group of people to attack him,
If he couldn't win, he could still run back to the mountains to find his master.
Zhou Xuan didn't believe those Qin family members would dare to go and confront his master.
After all, Zhou Xuan had inquired!
Although his master was not yet a Ascending Realm expert, below the Ascending Realm,
His master was the undisputed number one person in the cultivation world!
It could be said that he was a being above all others, below one realm.
To try and wrestle with his master!
Zhou Xuan estimated that even if the Qin family emptied their coffers, it would still be very difficult!
If his master hadn't told him before that his actions would be subject to national control,
Why would Zhou Xuan have to go to such lengths to search for clues!
He would have directly taken his master, charged into the Qin family's ancestral mansion,
Grabbed the Qin family head from his previous life, lifted him in the air with one hand,
And then given him a few of his favorite slaps,
And then arrogantly said to him:
"Either tell me the whereabouts of the Zhou family!"
"Or prepare for annihilation!"
"Choose yourself!"
Every time he thought of this, Zhou Xuan felt a surge of excitement!
Unfortunately, these were things he could only imagine for now.
Returning to the previous topic, the reason Zhou Xuan confessed all this to Lu Ling'er now,
Was because he feared that his actions might implicate Lu Ling'er and the Lu family.
As mentioned earlier, if he failed, at least he had a fallback.
But if the Qin family, in their rage, implicated Lu Ling'er and the Lu family,
It would undoubtedly be a disaster for them!
Zhou Xuan had already regarded Lu Ling'er as his wife.
And he also felt a sense of belonging to the Lu family.
Zhou Xuan did not want them to be in danger because of his affairs.
So, after Lu Ling'er guessed his thoughts, Zhou Xuan frankly admitted it.
However, his words were still not finished this time.
Because Lu Ling'er spoke again, cutting off the rest of his unfinished words!
"What do you not want, you don't want!"
"You don't want me to be in danger because of your affairs?"
"You don't want to be worried about my safety while you're fighting on the front lines!"
"Or do you just not want to be with me anymore!"
"Why do you assume I'll be a burden to you!"
"Didn't I tell you before!"
"I might not be able to do many things for you!"
"But at least I can stand in front of you and take a blow for you when you're in danger!"
"These words are never just for show!"
"Since you just said you are my man!"
"Then what are you doing now?"
"Do you consider me your closest person!"
"What is a loved one?"
"A loved one is someone who will firmly stand by your side when you are in danger!"
"Someone who will face danger with you!"
"Not a useless burden who is always protected by you!"
"And can only watch you take risks from behind you!"
"No matter why you have this thought today!"
"I advise you to take back everything you just said!"
"This way, I can pretend that nothing has happened!"
"Otherwise, I will turn hostile!"
"The consequences are yours to imagine!"
"And, I'll tell you!"
"In this lifetime, you will never be able to leave me alone!"
"No matter what you're going to do!"
"No matter where you're going!"
"I will follow you!"
"You will never be able to abandon me and venture out alone!"
