HIDDEN EVIL [XIAO SHUXIANG THE SERIES]
170 - Invitation (4)


Xiao Shuxiang frowned while in his room and only saw Wang Zhao a. He called the young man and asked. "Where are Yan Tianhen and the others?"


"Master Xiao," Wang Zhao walked up to Xiao Shuxiang and said, "They've all gone to their respective rooms. Mister Xiao from anywhere? You went away very long,"


"I will be taken by big elder Chen. How else...." Xiao Shuxiang exhaled and asked Lan Guan Zhi to sit down.


Wang Zhao nodded slowly, he was actually curious about what Xiao Shuxiang and the elders were discussing, but it was much more important to tell this young man that they would soon return to the Cloud Sea Sect.


Wang Zhao said, "Before elder Chu came here. He asked me to get ready and tell you. We'll be home tomorrow, early in the morning."


Xiao Shuxiang and Lan Guan Zhi gasped.


"You mean... Home to the Cloud Sea Sect?" Xiao Shuxiang asked and was taken in by Wang Zhao.


"really. Previously there had been many cultivators who decided to go home to their respective sects. So we're leaving tomorrow, too,"


!?


This was actually quite sudden news, because Elder Meng Hao Niang had not spoken anything about this return to Xiao Shuxiang before.


Lan Guan Zhi felt the same way. If his good friend returned to the Cloud Sea Sect, then it meant that he and Xiao Shuxiang could not meet again. Maybe for a long time.


"..............."


Xiao Shuxiang stared at Lan Guan Zhi for a bit before turning his gaze to Wang Zhao. He said, "Aren't we just planning a walk together? Why did you have to leave so soon?"


"I don't know... Even Miss Zhi Shu was so disappointed,"


"I'm going,"


Xiao Shuxiang flinched as his good friend suddenly said goodbye. "Lan Zhi?! Hey, where you going!"


Wang Zhao flinched as Lan Guan Zhi closed the door and left just like that. Even the young man did not listen to Xiao Shuxiang's words at all.


"What's wrong with young master Lan..?" Wang Zhao asked.


Xiao Shuxiang shrugged his shoulders slightly and said, "I think he's disappointed. Hiya... My poor good friend,"


"Are we persuading the elders to stay here longer?"


"Can you?" Xiao Shuxiang raised his eyebrows and said, "Although I am also not willing to part with my friends, but we cannot ignore the elders either. Just get everything ready and let me rest for a bit,"


"..............." Wang Zhao looked at Xiao Shuxiang who started to lie on his bed and he did not want to disturb the young man either.

Far away elsewhere, Jian Yang and Li Huanshou were facing Elder Zhang Shan and Elder Xia Longhua. The two young men persuaded the elders to give permission so that they could go to the Cloud Sea Sect.


"Shizun, I promise I won't be too cruel to my juniors if you allow me to go to the Cloud Sea Sect..." Jian Yang had to put on his clearest face for this permission.


Elder Zhang Shan himself and Elder Xia Longhua were taking a break after helping the cultivators who needed treatment a lot. The two did not expect the arrival of the two delinquent disciples who were actually their 'direct' disciples.


Elder Zhang Shan actually sent Jian Yang as a conference participant, as did Elder Xia Longhua who sent Li Huanshou. These two disciples were actually superior and indeed talented compared to their other disciples, but the mischief of these two disciples was comparable to his talent.


"What do you guys want to do in the Cloud Sea Sect? Looking for trouble and embarrass this place?" Elder Zhang Shan said firmly and was directly refuted by Jian Yang.


"Shizun, not so..." Jian Yang shook his head slowly, he said. "I've just become friends with brother Xiao and he'll be home soon. I really don't want to lose a friend I just met,"


Li Huanshou nodded in agreement, "Shizun. Please just. We never asked for anything before. Please help us just this once,"


The figure of the woman who was none other than Elder Xia Longhua seemed to frown when he saw the behavior of the two young cultivators before him. He said, "Why did you guys become like this? Whining like a kid, what good is that?"


"Shizun, I just met a friend who was as careful as I was. I can sense that I will learn a lot with brother Xiao and brother Yan as well. If Shizun cannot allow me to leave, then please help me to persuade the elders of the Cloud Sea Sect to stay here longer," Jian Yang would not give up so easily. He continued to persuade these two elders of his sect.


Elder Zhang Shan exhaled and said, "I can't. If the elders of the Cloud Sea Sect wanted to go home, then no one would be able to prevent them. After all, the duties of the elders are numerous and there is no time to take care of your friendship with anyone,"


"Shizun. If it can't, then let me go. I promise to do well in the Cloud Sea Sect, I promise." Jian Yang continued to persuade, as did Li Huanshou.


"You two are ...." Elder Zhang Shan shook his head slowly. He said, "What is the importance of being in a relationship with your 'brother Xiao?"


Elder Xia Longhua also said, "Didn't you guys know that he was just a servant in the Cloud Sea Sect?"


"That's why I want to get closer and befriend him," Jian Yang said, "Brother Xiao was given confidence by the great elder of the Cloud Sea Sect as his representative. She's definitely not a regular waitress,"


"I feel that I will get stronger and mature if I learn from people like Brother Xiao and the others. Please, Shizun..." Jian Yang massaged the knee of Elder Zhang Shan and made the man exhale slowly.


Elder Zhang Shan said, "You guys are delinquents and very stubborn."


"They are indeed young men with high adventurous souls,"


Zhang Shan's elder, Elder Xia Longhua, including Jian Yang and Li Huanshou gasped. They immediately turned their heads when they heard the voice of the man who was none other than Elder Jing Yufeng.


Elder Xia Longhua blinked. He saw Jing Yufeng walking quietly and seemed to go hand in hand with the figure of a handsome young man who was so dazzling.


"Chairman Jing..." Li Huanshou put his hands together and bowed in salute to Elder Jing Yufeng.


Jian Yang also paid his respects and this incident quite jolted the hearts of the three elders.


"Well," Elder Jing Yufengs smiled, "I didn't expect the two of you to be able to act this polite. Usually you never pay your respects,"


Elder Jing Yufeng opened her fan and again said, "Mm... It seemed like this Xiao Shuxiang was making a good impact on them. Isn't that right, Elder Zhang?"


"Chairman Jing, I no longer know how to act on the two of them. These children are very stubborn," Elder Zhang Shan took a breath and shook his head softly. Somehow he felt that Jian Yang and Li Huanshou were behaving politely in order to be allowed to go to the Cloud Sea Sect.


"What business did Elder Jing come here for?" Elder Xiao Longhua asked.


"I want to say that you guys just allow these two kids to leave. Experience will make them more mature,"


!!


Elder Zhang Shan and Elder Xia Longhua gasped at Elder Jing Yufeng's words. Jian Yang and Li Huanshou gasped, but both were amazed that Elder Jing Yufeng had come to defend them.


"Chairman Jing, what do you mean?" Elder Xia Longhua seemed to be in disbelief at what he heard.


"Chairman Xia. As 'Shizun', we have a responsibility to educate the students and spare them life-threatening dangers. But be aware that they cannot continue to be protected. Sometimes we have to take them off and let them find their own identity,"


Elder Xia Longhua exhaled and said, "I don't want to curb them. But these kids make strange requests,"


"That's not strange at all," Elder Jing Yufeng waved her fan and said, "They want to go to the Cloud Sea Sect, then let it be. I allowed A-Yuan myself to leave. Elder Xia don't worry,"


Jian Yang flinched, he looked excited. "Lan Guan Zhi is also going to the Cloud Sea Sect?"


"Mn," Lan Guan Zhi nodded slowly and made Li Huanshou happy as well.


"Look, Shizun. Lan Guan Zhi was also about to leave. We will definitely be fine," Jian Yang grew even more excited.


Elder Zhang Shan asked, "Didn't you and Li Huanshou really dislike A-Yuan? Why are you so happy to see A-Yuan now,"


"Shizun, Lan Guan Zhi is now my friend. He is now my Lan brother." Jian Yang did not hesitate to admit it and Li Huanshou nodded in agreement.


"A-Yuan, is that true?" Elder Zhang Shan asked Lan Guan Zhi.


".......... Mn. The problem between us is solved,"


"look, right? This was also due to the help from brother Xiao," Jian Yang grabbed Elder Zhang Shan's hand and again said, "Shizun. You have to believe. I can also be a good student. I will learn a lot from Lan Guan Zhi and my new friends..."


"Shizun..." Li Huanshou persuaded until Elder Xia Longhua closed his eyes slowly and reopened them.


Elder Xia Longhua finally could not prevent the wishes of his disciple. He took a breath and nodded slowly. Li Huanshou was very happy that he had now obtained permission from his Shizun.


Elder Zhang Shan nodded. He also gave the permission that made Jian Yang so elated. It was just that he did not forget to give a warning to the two young cultivators in front of him.


Elder Zhang Shan said, "I will help you to talk to the elders of the Cloud Sea Sect. But still, your decision is either gone or not.... It's not in my hands."


Elder Zhang Shan continued, "If the elders of the Cloud Sea Sect allow, then you guys can leave. Understood?"


Jian Yang and Li Huanshou nodded excitedly. They listened very well and were confident that the elders of the Cloud Sea Sect would not reject him.


Elder Xia Longhua also reminded, "You must keep the behavior in the place of others and follow the rules that are there. Don't let you ruin the good name of this sect,"


"I will always remember Shizun's advice," Jian Yang said in a stern voice.


"I won't forget it either. I'll make sure Shizun isn't disappointed," Li Huanshou stared fixedly at his Shizun.


"They'll be fine. A-Yuan was there to watch over them," Elder Jing Yufeng waved her fan softly and her speech just now was nudged by Lan Guan Zhi.
