Chapter 1066 Ghost Saint Country 27
ve any programs prepared"Feng Lingxi stood up and walked over. After bowing, she looked up at the Empress, meeting her cold gaze with unflinching courage. "Father Emperor," she said calmly, "these pas..."Who says someone walks with their eyes closed"
Luo Li held Wan'er in his arms, looking at the redness on her forehead, his eyes full of concern.
The young girl’s expression softened. The coldness on her face vanished instantly, replaced by a sweet smile as she coquettishly said, "A-Li gege, it's this little girl who walked with her eyes closed and bumped into me. It hurts so much.”
Wan'er cried very loudly, tears falling drop by drop, as if she was in unbearable pain.
Luo Li hurriedly soothed Wan'er, and finally Wan'er's voice subsided a little.
"Brother Ali, who is this girl Why are you so fond of her"
“Did you make tofu Wan'er is only one and a half years old, she bumped into you and hurt you Why didn't you say anything She killed you!”
The girl's face turned pale at his parting words.
She was the beloved granddaughter of the Grand Elder, with a sweet and lovely appearance. Relying on the Grand Elder's favoritism, she didn't take the clan members seriously. What Luoli found most repulsive was that the Grand Elder intended to marry this favorite to him, but he had no feelings for her. That's why he said he had many women outside, using it as an excuse to decline.
Xin Shui gazed at Luo Li, who was holding a little girl in her arms.
"She's the future chief"
So the little witch Grandpa was talking about is this girl. Unexpectedly, she's so bad even at such a young age. She actually wants to stay in the Yao clan and be the future leader. If it weren't for Grandpa saying that killing her isn't allowed right now, such a menace wouldn't be left around.
His cruel eyes instantly withdrew the killing intent, replaced by a sweet smile.
Xinshui stretched out his hand wanting to touch Wan'er's head, but Wan'er hurriedly buried her head in Luoli's arms, giving Xinshui an unhappy look.
"Master, she hit me."
Xin Shui's smile froze on her face. She glared at the little girl who had just bitten back, feeling utterly exasperated.
"What are you talking about When did I hit you You clearly bumped into me."
Wan'er's little chubby hand stroked her forehead, staring intently.
"Master, it hurts."
Luoli stood there for a long time before she came to her senses. She looked at Wan'er with eyes full of shock.
"Wǎn'er, you call me master"
Wan'er, looking at Luo Li's astonished gaze, cried out again, "Master, she hit me."
"I..."
"Apologize to Wan'er."
Luo Li's handsome face darkened, "Otherwise, let the Grand Elder judge this."
Xinshui watched Luo Li receive this special treatment, so angry that she stamped her feet.
"Brother Ali, she was the one who..."
"I'm sorry."
Luo Li's eyes were extremely cold, carrying a threatening warning. Xin Shui Qi gritted her teeth, staring at Wan'er. She suppressed the discontent in her heart and said, "I'm sorry."
Luo Li carried Wan'er into the house, holding a medicine box, and began to treat Wan'er's abrasions. Looking at Wan'er's eyes fixed on him, that grievance, yet enduring look, Luo Li's heart was almost melting.
"Stay away from that woman from now on."
Wan'er nodded heavily, watching Xinshui walk in.
"Bad woman."
Luo Li's lips twitched slightly as she looked at Wan'er. She was learning quickly, and her speech was much clearer than usual.
Xinshui walked up to Luoli's face, her eyes full of tenderness, "A-Li brother, you won't be leaving this time, will you"
Luo Li ignored her. Xinshui glanced at Wan'er and said, "Grandpa said that when he's finished with his business, we'll get married."
"Marriage"
Luo Li raised her eyes to look at Xin Shui, seeing her blushing face, his expression turned cold.
"When did I ever say I would marry you"
"Don't take her." Wǎn'er also chimed in, not forgetting to add, "She's a bad woman."
Luoli patted Wan'er's head, "Children shouldn't interrupt when adults are speaking."
When Xinshui heard what Wan'er said, her face turned green with anger. This child was truly clueless; who she married had nothing to do with her.
Once she marries Brother Ali, just wait and see how she'll be dealt with.
"Brother Ali, this is what grandpa meant."
"Then go and marry him. I won't marry you." Luo Li finished, adding, "Even if I married you, you would only have an empty room to yourself." Even Wan'er could see Luo Li's disgust for her.
"Master, marry Wan'er."
The milky, incoherent way of speaking is really adorable.
A smile played at the corners of her lips, and her eyes were so gentle they could weep.
"Well then, you better grow up well."
Wan'er nodded, then made a face at Xinshui. Xin Shui raised his hand, but Luo Li glared him back down.
"That's enough, stop making a scene here."
Xinshui, looking at Luoli leaving, also became angry.
"Where did I go wrong It was her..."
"How old are you You're so petty to argue with a child. You're mentally deficient, I would never marry someone like you."
Deeply humiliated, tears streamed down her face as she turned and fled.
Waner looked at Luoli, her voice soft.
"Master, hug me."
Luo Li picked her up and looked at her staring at him, softly said, “I’ll take you to see your mother.”
Wan'er nodded, letting Luo Li hug her out. She hugged Luo Li's neck, being very clingy.
The arrival of Feng Lingxi quickly spread throughout the Yao clan.
The Yao people of this Ghost Saint Kingdom are not much different from those in other areas. Their architecture is the same, and the surrounding mountains and terrain are basically identical. If there's any real difference, it's that the Yao territory here is much larger, like entering a kingdom. They have everything here: markets, streets, inns, and mountain ranges that stretch as far as the eye can see. The terrain is complex, with the main hall of the Yao people situated atop a peak, its palace grand and imposing.
Feng Lingxi was brought to the council hall. The Grand Elder and all the elders were in session. Seeing Elder San bring Feng Lingxi before them, they saw this beautiful woman. Everyone's thoughts were the same: a beauty is a danger.
Feng Lingxi felt their scrutinizing gazes and a slight curve appeared at the corner of her lips.
"Big brother, this is Saint Master Feng Lingxi."
"Windling greets all the elders."
Feng Lingxi paid her respects, and the Grand Elder's gaze fell upon her, scrutinizing her from head to toe.
"The Lord sits."
Feng Lingxi said thanks, but she didn't see Luoli and Wan'er. She felt a bit curious. Wasn't she the chief of the Yao clan
How did she come when he didn't appear
"The chief will be here shortly. I have already informed him."
The Grand Elder spoke up, Feng Lingxi let out a breath of relief and said with a smile, "Honorable Elders, Wan'er came to the Yao Clan this time to bother all of you. I apologize for any inconvenience caused."
When it comes to Wan'er, the elders all have different expressions. This girl hasn't been quiet for a moment these past few days, and they each have their own troubles that are hard to say.
"Did you find out everything"
Feng Lingxi turned to look at the Third Elder, "I would like to ask for your advice, Elder. This little girl, Wan'er, is truly mischievous. When the Clan Chief took her away back then, I didn't expect her to become like this. I am truly sorry."
First comes courtesy, then force. She wanted to see how these elders would end up.
“Since the Three Elders have already told you, we won’t say any more. Wan'er was calculated by our Yao Clan to be the one who will inherit the position of Clan Leader for a thousand years in the future. She needs to be educated from a young age, so she has to stay in the Yao Clan and receive education since she was young.”Xia Li, "Xia Li, go post a notice at the gate. The palace needs to recruit several maidservants. We'll personally choose them later. Also, we need to carefully consider the candidate for steward and s...
