ch 348 – The Event of the Statue; Saving Someone (5)

“Dad, where is Eleventh Elder now? I am guessing your intention is to save him and bring him back?” Cheng Xiao Xiao wasn’t going to let anyone had the opportunity to make fun of her. So she just raised the question directly and pretended nothing had happened.

Cheng Biyuan nodded and said, “The Emperor City Cheng’s don’t have much humanity left in them anymore. What wouldn’t they do for their own gains? Our men inadvertently found out that the Cheng’s had sent out a lot of men heading in the Mocheng direction but we didn’t know why. It was after further investigations by our men before we learned that they were all headed for Eleventh Elder.”

“We didn’t know about this before. Now that we are aware of it, naturally we can’t just sit by and do nothing about it. Why don’t you and Elder Ying take a trip to Mocheng Province and bring them here?”

“Mr. father-in-law, your son-in-law is willing to go with Xiao Xiao to save these people. How about we let Old Man Ying stay here, what do you say?”

Mo Xuanzun volunteered himself; he didn’t want to miss any opportunity to spend with the love of his life.

“Oh? You two going together?” Cheng Biyuan was a bit surprised. After all, Mo Xuanzun has very prestigious status; he hadn’t planned on having him take care of these kind of matters for them.

Mo Xuanzun, full of smile, nodded and said, “Yes, Mr. father-in-law, I will accompany Xiao Xiao. Old Man Ying can stay back and take care of the ranch and the mystical fields!”

“Guye, we have specific people for these tasks, I don’t think I’d need to do that!” Old Man Ying felt that he was being treated unjustly. He wasn’t the one who offered to accompany the Miss on the mission; yet the guye still chalk it up to him.

Mo Xuanzun squinted and looked at Old Man Ying with razor sharp eyes, “What? You can’t even watch out on the ranch and mystical fields even when you are at home?”

“Of course, guye, I will take good care of them!” With a chill down his spine, Old Man Ying made promises immediately.

“That’s better. Don’t let Xiao Xiao had to worry about anything at home!”

“And just what does that have to do with you?” said Cheng Xiao Xiao as she pouted a little but she didn’t know too displeased about what he said. She said to Cheng Biyuan, “Dad, if that’s the case, I better head out to look for Eleventh Elder sooner rather than later. And this tool had met him one already!”

“Okay, just be careful on your way. Coming back soon and don’t digress!” Cheng Biyuan told them.

Cheng Xiao Xiao smiled and said, “Dad, don’t worry. We will be fine!”

“Hrm…” Cheng Biyuan didn’t really trust her words. She said the same thing last time, but she almost died on her trip. He turned toward Mo Xuanzun and said to him, “Young man Mo, you take good care of Xiao Xiao and bring her back safely!”

“Yes, Mr. father-in-law. Even if that means my life, you son-in-law will make sure Xiao Xiao comes back unharmed!” said Mo Xuanzun ever so seriously.

“Don’t say things like that. You both come back safely!” Cheng Biyuan smiled and was progressively more pleased with this official guye. He was started to look at him as one of his own child.

“Alright, let’s go. You guys are men, right? Stop being so sappy already!”

“Okay, be on your way then!”

Then two turned and left one after another. The three seniors couldn’t help but smiled lightly. Old Man Ying smiled and said, “Miss has certainly found herself a good guye!”

“He is a good guye. I thought any man that Xiao Xiao would fall for would be someone more assertive. I never expected a big kid like Mo Xuanzun. That was quite surprising!” sighed Mo Xuanzun.

Cheng Biyuan nodded as well, “That is true. Xiao Xiao is tough on the outside and soft on the inside; Mo Xuanzun was tough on the inside and soft on the outside. The two of them compliment each other very well. That’s a very good thing!”
