Currently, she was wearing a red wedding robe in a room plastered everywhere with the inscription “red cloth "double happiness ” red cloth. Last night, his grandfather Xiao Lie and his aunt Xiao Lingxi personally arranged the work. His bedroom has been converted into a wedding hall.
Suddenly, the door opened and a delicate figure entered in a hurry. Xiao Che immediately stood up and smiled, "Little Aunt, has grandfather returned?"
Xiao Lingxi had been Xiao Lie's daughter ever since she was middle-aged. Although she was Xiao Che's aunt, she was only fifteen years old this year and one year younger than Xiao Che. She was very young but her beauty was already very touching. His profound strength was at the early sixth level of the Basic Realm but even though he was not on par with Xia Qingyue in comparison, it was not that bad as he was an important asset to the Xiao Clan and was held in high esteem. .
"Oh, Che'er, you're finally awake."
A soft voice spread throughout the room as Xiao Lie walked in. Seeing that Xiao Che had already gotten out of bed with normal skin, Xiao Lie relaxed a little. Behind him followed his housekeeper Xiao Hong and the number one healer in the Floating Cloud town of Physician Situ.
“Good if you're awake and you don't look sick anymore but let the Situ healer examine you. Today is your wedding day and we must not have the slightest mistake. Doctor, please continue. Xiao Lie stepped aside during his speech.
The Situ Physician placed his medicine box on the table and sat down in front of Xiao Che, raising his hand to check the pulse on Xiao Che's wrist. After a while, he released his hand from Xiao Che.
“Tabib Situ, how is Xiao Che? Is this serious?" Xiao Lingxi asked anxiously, with a terrifying nervousness etched on her face.
Although he did not speak, Xiao Lie looked solemn and had a ferocious expression on his face…. How could he not realize that Xiao Che's sudden collapse was strange?
The face of the Physician Situ slowly shone and smiled, “Older Xiao, you need not worry, your grandson's physical condition is excellent. He did not have any severe illness or even a cold in the slightest. Maybe your grandson fainted because he was so nervous and excited that his blood was rushing to his head. After all your granddaughter married the daughter of the Xia Clan, the number one beautiful woman in the Floating Cloud city. Hohoho.”
Although the Situ healer tried to hide his disgust, his words expressed regret. A talented woman marrying a useless and futureless man is really hard for one to accept.
“Nothing,” replied the Situ Physician with a wave of his hand and raised his medicine box, “Because your grandson is fine, I will go. Congratulations to Elder Xiao for meeting the greatest son-in-law in Floating Cloud City. I don't know how many people should envy you right now. Ha ha's. Good bye."
“You should remember to come to the wedding for a drink. Hong, take Doctor Situ out.”
“Che'er, are you really okay? Do you feel unwell anywhere? Xiao Lie was still unsure after the Situ healer left and pouted while thinking. When Xiao Che suddenly fainted, his body temperature dropped and his vitality faded. This is not just a result of being too excited. Looking at Xiao Che's current state of health, he did indeed look fine at the moment, but Xiao Lie was still unable to dispel the small doubts in his heart.
I'm totally fine, Grandpa, rest assured." Xiao Che said with a relaxed expression. His nose was suddenly sour as he looked at Xiao Lie and he saw a worried face with a head full of white hair.
The Xiao Clan was made up of five elders and although Xiao Lie was the Fifth Elder, he was the strongest in the clan. Five years ago he entered the border of the tenth level of the Spirit Realm. He was now at the peak of the tenth level of the Spirit Realm and had the chance to enter the True Realm, a level many people dreamed of.
Xiao Lie was only fifty-five years old this year with the strength of the tenth level in the Spirit Realm, but all of his hair was already bleached. Every time Xiao Che saw this head filled with white hair, his heart became bitter upon seeing it.
The reason why Xiao Lie had white hair since middle age was known to everyone living in the Floating Cloud city. His only son, the father of Xiao Che, Xiao Ying was referred to as the number one genius in the Floating Cloud city. At the age of seventeen, he entered the Nascent Realm. At the age of twenty, he reached the fifth level of the Nascent Realm. At twenty-three years old, he broke through and entered the True Realm, shocking everyone in Floating Cloud City. He became the pride of the Xiao Clan, as well as the pride and excitement of Xiao Lie. Almost everyone believed that when Xiao Ying became middle-aged, he would be the best qualified candidate to inherit the leadership of the Xiao Clan.
Unfortunately, perhaps because the god was jealous of the talented one, there was an assassination attempt on Xiao Ying's life just a month after Xiao Che was born. A few days earlier, Xiao Ying had also saved the life of the daughter of the Xia Clan. After this rescue, Xiao Ying could only fend off the assassins with half his usual strength and close his last breath. His wife's heart breaks from losing her love and goes to see him soon after. Xiao Lie's hair was bleached overnight due to the heavy blow of losing his son. Nine months later, Xiao Lingxi was born. Her mother also suffered the agonizing pain of losing her only son and died of depression a month later.
No one knew how Xiao Lie lived his life all those years after his son and wife died. His pale white hair contained immeasurable sadness, hatred and an unspeakable deep sadness.
To this day, Xiao Lie still had not discovered who the murderer of his son was.
