Chapter 516 - 516 Fleeting in a Flash
516 Fleeting in a Flash
Time passed in the blink of an eye. It had been six years since Dong Xi had participated in the Blazing Flame Valley’s celebration. She had also grown up.
Counting the days, it seemed like Dong Rourou should start practicing her swordsmanship.
Dong Xi had also inquired about Dong Rourou. Even now, Dong Rourou’s master still had not come to visit.
Therefore, Dong Xi planned to teach her personally.
Dong Xi came to the mortal world and returned to the Dong family.
Old Master Dong, who was sitting in the living room and sipping tea, had also rushed back from outside.
Dong Xi used her divine sense to scan and found that Old Master Dong was only in his fifties, but his footsteps were unsteady, his face was sallow, and his entire body was covered in the smell of rouge.
Needless to say, this was another playboy who was about to waste his life away.
When Old Master Dong saw Dong Xi, he was also somewhat shocked.
Although he heard from the servants that she was not old, he did not expect her to be so young.
Especially when he saw the eyes, he realized that Dong Xi’s eyes were hollow and turbid. Could she be blind?
Old Master Dong sized up Dong Xi and thought that Dong Xi could not see it at all. Old Master Dong’s gaze was also very unfriendly.
Old Master Dong did not know that his every move was discovered by Dong Xi’s divine sense.
The two of them looked at each other for a moment before Old Master Dong walked in. Old Master Dong said, “You are Swordsman?”
Dong Xi nodded. Before she descended to the mortal world, she did not really want to come, but after she really came, it did not matter.
These people were related to Dong Xi by blood, but Dong Xi did not intend to acknowledge them. She just treated them as strangers.
“May I ask your honorable name?” Old Master Dong asked.”
“Dong Li,” said Dong Xi.
As he spoke, Dong Xi’s empty eyes looked at Old Master Dong.
“I heard that you think highly of my daughter’s talent and want to take her as your disciple?” said Old Master Dong.
Dong Xi nodded. As for talent, Dong Xi did not care at all.
Dong Xi only wanted to know what Dong Rourou had experienced in the original book and why she was so cruel.
She tortured the original Host to death, and even tortured the unlucky Dong Xi to death.
The methods used to torture the people were much worse than the demons. It did not seem like a righteous sect could do such a thing.
Now that Dong Rourou was in Dong Xi’s hands, things would be much more controllable in the future.
Dong Xi’s thoughts were very simple. She just needed to prevent Dong Rourou from going astray from the righteous path. Moreover, she had learned this sword technique from her master, Yijian. Although it was nothing in the cultivation world, it was an invincible existence in the mortal world.
Normally, if an expert who could fight dozens of people was willing to take their child as an apprentice, they would immediately cling to her.
However, Old Master Dong was not an ordinary person. Elder Dong said, “Thank you for thinking highly of me, Sir. I can’t make the decision for my daughter. I need to discuss it with her brother.”
Dong Xi was speechless.
Dong Tianya?
“I won’t be here for too long. You guys decide as soon as possible,” Dong Xi stood up and said.
Old Master Dong’s attitude was very good. If this person was really the kind of guest from the sky that they had guessed, the Dong family would not dare to offend him at all.
“How about this? You can stay in the residence for now. We’ll give you an answer after we’ve discussed it.”
“That works too,” Dong Xi said.
The Dong family was the most familiar in the original owner’s memory. Dong Xi followed the butler through the familiar stairs and corridors to the guest room.
When Dong Xi entered the door, she suddenly heard some sounds. Dong Xi turned around and saw a familiar figure.
However, it disappeared very quickly. Dong Xi withdrew her divine sense and entered the guest room.
The housekeeper sent a servant girl over, but Dong Xi declined politely. Dong Xi was the only one left in the room.
Not long after, there was a knock on the door.
Dong Xi used her divine sense to check. When she saw the person outside, she was instantly stunned.
Then, Dong Xi stood up and opened the door. The moment the door opened, the person outside immediately entered the room.
Song Qingfeng looked into Dong Xi’s eyes and said, “Little Xi, how did it become like this?”
Dong Xi said indifferently, “I saw something that I shouldn’t have seen. It’s nothing. Master said that I’ll be fine after a while.”
Hearing this, Song Qingfeng was relieved. He said, “Then why are you here?”
“Of course I’m going to my own home. Why are you here?” Dong Xi said in surprise. “Aren’t you looking for Third Senior Brother?”
Song Qingfeng widened his eyes and said in shock, “This… Is it your house?”
Dong Xi immediately covered Song Qingfeng’s mouth and said, “Keep your voice down. I snuck back here. No one here knows.”
Song Qingfeng’s eyes were filled with surprise. He then signaled Dong Xi to let go.
However, when Dong Xi realized that she could not see anything and did not know what to do, she let go of Song Qingfeng.
“Senior Brother, didn’t Master say that you were surrounded? Why are you here?” asked Dong Xi. “Where did Third Senior Brother go?”
“I am, but at the same time, I am not,” Song Qingfeng sighed.
“Speak in human language, don’t be mysterious.” Dong Xi immediately said.
Song Qingfeng was speechless.
