Capítulo 124: Chapter 124 The Family Needs Them!
Chapter 124 The Family Needs Them!
On the Douqi continent, there's no rule prohibiting minors from drinking alcohol. That's why, at last night's party, Xiao Ze also had a drink. With his current formidable constitution, this common type of alcohol couldn't possibly make him drunk.
For Xiao Ze, if alcohol couldn't make him drunk, it was just a slightly special beverage. In contrast, Xiao Ding and Xiao Li, being overly happy, drank until they were completely drunk, and in the end, it was Xiao Ze who escorted them back to their rooms. Perhaps the rare visit of a family member made these two hardworking brothers feel exceptionally joyful.
The members of the mercenary group were surprised to see the two leaders so excited and cheerful. It seems that the two leaders have a deep relationship with this cousin. After returning to his room, Xiao Ze continued training until dawn. Creak! The door of the room opened silently, and a small figure stealthily entered. Seeing Xiao Ze smiling at her, Qing Lin got scared.
"What's wrong, little one? Did I scare you?" "Young master, I was assigned to attend to you because I accompanied you yesterday, and I'm already familiar with you."
"There's no rush for that, come here first. Your name is Qing Lin, right?" "Yes, young master." Qing Lin quickly approached. After yesterday's contact, she already trusted Xiao Ze quite a bit. Even though Xiao Ze called her to bed, she had no reservations.
"Qing Lin, have you ever trained before?" Qing Lin shook her head, "I am already very grateful to have been taken in. How could I aspire to train?" "Would you like to train? From today on, how about I teach you?" Qing Lin's eyes widened, "But... I'm just a servant."
"Are you worried about not having time? Don't worry, I'll talk to the others about it." Xiao Ze gently stroked Qing Lin's head and then assured her. "I'll make you my personal servant, so you won't have to do tasks for others."
"But... young master, why are you so kind to me? Everyone fears and hates me..." Qing Lin started to cry as she said this. Xiao Ze held her cheeks with both hands, lifting her head to look her in the eyes, and spoke to her seriously. "If you need a reason, it's because I believe in your training talent and I want you by my side to train together." These direct words made Qing Lin's face blush intensely. Xiao Ze could feel how warm Qing Lin's cheeks were.
"I... I understand..." Qing Lin stuttered as Xiao Ze's words echoed in her mind. Seeing the little one seeming dazed, Xiao Ze smiled. It seemed this strong medicine had been a bit too much. He thought that because of the environment she had grown up in, Qing Lin had very low self-esteem. She distrusted and automatically rejected the kindness offered to her.
So, he'd better give her a firm reason! Xiao Ze valued her training talent and wanted Qing Lin by his side to train together. "Alright, Qing Lin, rest a bit here. I'll go talk to my brothers." This little one had slight dark circles under her eyes. Was she packing things all night? Thinking of this, Xiao Ze gently stroked her head. He made her lie down on the bed to rest for a while. It wasn't until the door slammed shut that Qing Lin came to herself. However, she kept repeating in her mind what Xiao Ze had said, as if she wanted to engrave it on her heart.
"Young Master Xiao Ze said he values me..." As she repeated these words and felt Xiao Ze's residual warmth on the bed, the blush on her face rose again. Even her earlobes turned red, like a gem bathed in blood. Meanwhile, Xiao Ze had no idea how much his words could be misinterpreted by Qing Lin. In her mind, Qing Lin was already imagining a life with Xiao Ze.
In Xiao Ding and Xiao Li's room, both were sitting in front of a stone table in the courtyard. "Something's not right," said Xiao Li, massaging his sore head. "What's wrong?" Xiao Ding looked at his younger brother.
"Did that kid really go to the Jia Nan Academy to train and not socialize? What good alcohol resistance he has!" Xiao Ding rolled his eyes. Yesterday, Xiao Li dragged him into a drinking competition with Xiao Ze, and both ended up knocked down. Even now, waking up, Xiao Ding had a headache.
"Big brother, isn't it a bit early to speak ill of me?" A familiar voice sounded from outside the patio, with a somewhat mocking tone. "You still dare to speak? Tell me, did you go to the Jia Nan Academy to train or to socialize?"
"That's impossible!" Xiao Ze rolled his eyes, unable to help it. "Have you considered that it might be because my body is so strong that common alcohol doesn't affect me?" Xiao Ding and Xiao Li looked at each other confused. Finally, Xiao Ding asked slowly, "Xiao Ze, what's your power level now?" Xiao Ze smiled and then splendid deep blue energy wings materialized behind him. Whoosh! Both jumped up, gaping at the energy wings behind Xiao Ze.
"I'm at the peak of the Dou Wang level, one step away from the Dou Huang level." Xiao Ze's words left them astonished, unable to believe it. It took them a long time to accept that Xiao Ze was already a powerful Dou Wang.
"How lucky the Xiao family is to have such a talented person!" "The Xiao family will definitely rise again!" They both spoke one after the other, amazed by Xiao Ze's talent. With their limited experience, they had never heard of someone reaching the Dou Wang level at fourteen years old. "Ahem! Brothers, don't get too excited. Actually, I came to the Stone Desert City for a crucial family matter.
" This left them stunned. "Xiao Ze, are you kidding? You're a Dou Wang!" Xiao Ding frowned. "In the Jia Ma Empire, you're already someone important, how could the family be in danger?" "It's not the same.
The situation is complicated. I can only say this much." Xiao Ze spoke seriously. He couldn't afford to joke about something like this, as it could raise doubts. "Our Xiao family was prosperous in the past, but then it declined. However, the enemies of the Xiao family, even across the Douqi continent, are the most powerful."
"And the Xiao family still holds a treasure that makes them greedy.
Don't they know the saying 'An innocent man can be guilty for having a jewel'?" "That's why I plan to take the whole Xiao family to a safer place.
And for that, I need my brothers' help." "The family needs you!" After hearing Xiao Ze's explanation, Xiao Ding and Xiao Li were surprised and looked at each other. Was our family prosperous before?
