632: Chapter 632 Twenty breaths, isn't that a bit too long?

"Then Holy Lord Su, please come with me! Our Xie Family's spirit boat is ready for departure! It is currently parked in the open space behind the teahouse!"

Xie Zhisong said enthusiastically, his face beaming with a smile as he looked at Su Yun.

Being able to host Holy Lord Su for a few more days was naturally a good thing for their Xie Family.

He had even considered stuffing a few more beautiful, unmarried young maidens from various branches of the clan to Holy Lord Su.

Even if they couldn't become Holy Lord Su's Dao Companion, taking a step back and becoming a personal maid would also be quite good!

After all, he had investigated before and knew that Holy Lord Su had multiple Dao Companions.

With so many Dao Companions, there would definitely be no shortage of infighting.

And Laner was all alone, her influence weak, and her personality was relatively simple and naive; it was very likely she wouldn't be able to compete with the others.

Therefore, to consolidate Laner's position, having a few young maidens of the same clan to assist her would be good.

However, it was a pity that Holy Lord Su did not seem interested in the young maidens of their Xie Family.

Thinking of this, a trace of regret flashed in Xie Zhisong's eyes, and he felt a bit helpless.

Immediately, he and several Xie Family Elders stood up from their spirit chairs and walked quickly to the door of the private room, ready to lead the way for Su Yun.

"Very well." Su Yun nodded slightly and followed directly with Xie Yulan.

There was no conversation along the way.

The group successfully boarded the Xie Family's spirit boat, which turned into a streak of light and flew towards the Xie Family Ancestral Land.

… After a period of time. Xie Family Ancestral Land.

Everyone got off the spirit boat.

Xie Zhisong and the others leading the group looked at the familiar Ancestral Land, their hearts filled with deep emotion.

Although they had only been gone for half a day, it felt like a lifetime to them.

After all, they had experienced the trap set by the Xu Family, encountered a terrifying Mahayana powerhouse, and even witnessed immortal Spells.

These major events left them with lingering fears even now.

If Holy Lord Su hadn't been there, the fate of their Xie Family would have been truly unimaginable!

Xie Zhisong cupped his hands and said with a chuckle: "Holy Lord Su, if you don't mind, we will prepare another banquet to host you! And take the opportunity to thank you for saving our Xie Family!"

"No problem! Then I will trouble Fellow Daoist Xie!" Su Yun waved his hand and said politely.

"A banquet?" Xie Yulan's beautiful eyes lit up. Not knowing what she was thinking of, she pursed her pink lips slightly.

They entered the Xie Family Ancestral Land. Xie Zhisong and the others hurriedly took their leave to prepare the banquet.

Su Yun and the other had nothing to do, so they strolled around the Xie Family Ancestral Land.

After walking a few laps and chatting with the passing Xie Family members, Su Yun nodded with satisfaction.

"It seems Fellow Daoist Xie's measures are quite effective."

Now, the passing Xie Family members all believed that he and Senior Sister Yulan had not left their Immortal Cave today, but had just come out of it.

This was the result he wanted to see! After all, the Xie Family matter and the establishment of the Family Alliance were best kept separate from the Holy Land. Beyond preventing resistance from the Cultivators of various families, it was also to ensure Jiyuan Palace wouldn't discover his plan so quickly. That was why he pretended to be a hidden powerhouse of the Xie Family, not even using his usual Spells when taking action, but only using the Xie Family's Legacy Spells.

… Shortly after.

The banquet Xie Zhisong had ordered to be prepared was ready, and he sent someone to notify Su Yun and the other. Immediately, Su Yun took Xie Yulan and went to the Xie Family's main hall to attend the banquet, just as before.

This banquet was even more sumptuous than the last. All kinds of high-level Yao Beast meat, ten-thousand-year-old Spiritual Plants and fruits, and incomparably precious nectar and jade wine were all available. Amidst the clinking of glasses, everyone ate and drank their fill, and both host and guest were delighted.

Time passed quickly. The banquet ended. Everyone left the Xie Family's main hall.

Xie Zhisong: "Holy Lord Su, we will take our leave first. If you have any needs, just let us know at any time!"

Su Yun: "You are too polite, Fellow Daoist Xie!"

Xie Zhisong smilingly led the Xie Family Elders away quickly, soon disappearing without a trace. Even the other Xie Family members who had come to join the fun left one after another, not gathering together, as if they wanted to clear out space for Su Yun and Xie Yulan to be alone.

Seeing this, Xie Yulan blinked her beautiful eyes and said in a tender tone: "Junior Brother Yun... um... let's go back to my Immortal Cave now! It's late at night~"

"Aren't we going to continue strolling? Why are you in such a rush to go back to the Immortal Cave?" Su Yun asked in a gentle tone, holding her jade hand, a trace of confusion flashing in his eyes.

"Now... it's so late, there's nothing left to see..."

"Although it's late, looking at the night scenery is also quite nice! There's no need to go back right now, right?"

"The night scenery here isn't anything special! Junior Brother Yun, let's go back and Cultivate early!"

"Cultivation isn't urgent, doing it later is fine too!"

"It's not just Cultivation, it's that..."

A blush appeared on Xie Yulan's pretty face, and her voice even became quieter as she stammered. How could she just say it directly!

Hearing this, Su Yun still pretended not to know and continued to ask: "Which is that?"

"Mm, it's just... Junior Brother Yun... you are asking when you already know, aren't you!"

At this moment, Xie Yulan finally realized something was wrong. She looked up and, sure enough, saw Su Yun's half-smiling expression, and couldn't help but pout. Ugh... Junior Brother Yun is so bad, teasing her again!

Xie Yulan turned her head away, pretending to be a little angry, and muttered: "Hmph, Junior Brother Yun, I won't speak to you for twenty breaths!"

After saying this, she regretted it a little. Twenty breaths, would that be a bit too long? How about changing it to ten breaths?

"Just joking, Senior Sister Yulan, I'm sorry!" Su Yun reached out, gently rubbed Xie Yulan's pretty face, and said earnestly.

Feeling that warm hand, before even five breaths had passed, Xie Yulan couldn't help but speak directly: "You're... rubbing my face again... Junior Brother Yun, do you like rubbing faces that much? Could it be that you also often rub Junior Sister Yuyao and the others' faces?"

"No, no, no, I actually don't particularly like rubbing faces." Su Yun let go of her, shook his head, and denied this claim.

"Then why did you... You really were teasing me!" Xie Yulan pouted and said softly.

"That is because... I like you, Senior Sister Yulan, that is why I like rubbing your face..." Su Yun's pitch-black eyes looked straight at her, his tone incomparably gentle.

"This... Junior Brother Yun... you..." Hearing this, Xie Yulan's beautiful eyes widened, her pretty face flushed red, and her heart trembled. Junior Brother Yun... he actually only rubs my face because he likes me! Just how much does he like me! Ugh... this sentence is just too foul!

At this moment, Xie Yulan's beautiful eyes rippled with emotion as she looked at Su Yun; it was as if only his figure remained in her eyes. She had ignored everything around her!
