At this time, Xia Sheng didn't know that Wang Er, who had been standing behind him, was not a servant of the Marquis of Weining, but the most outstanding aide under Ye Jiang's tent.⊥

Now he is the butler of this general's mansion.

The reason why Wang Er appeared here today was not really to serve Xia Sheng, but from the moment Xia Sheng entered the door, he was secretly observing the every move of the little sister-in-law in the Marquis's house.

He is here to serve Marshal Ye.

It was also for Mrs. Ye to evaluate whether Xia Sheng deserved his own lady.

The answer given by Wang Er in the end is a bit ambiguous, but if you understand it literally, it is at least a kind of praise, not a belittlement.

This has already been a very high evaluation to Mrs. Ye.

But this still cannot change her original intention of hoping to tear down the engagement.

Everything Mrs. Ye did before was not to do a show or to test Xia Sheng, but from the sincerity.

Because she firmly believes that outside of Xia Sheng, her daughter can have better choices.

For example, the young master of the Li family, Li Rujing.

It is not just that the two families are aligned, but more importantly, Mrs. Ye, a mother, knows her daughter’s thoughts better.

She knew that Ye Xiao'e had been secretly liking Li Rujing. If it weren't for Xia Sheng, a mountain boy who came out of nowhere, suddenly interjected her, maybe the Li family would have come to propose marriage half a month ago.

When Mrs. Ye thought of this, she felt so angry that she felt so angry. Now it seems that perhaps the only way is to start with his father, the chef named Xia Hong, as Xia Sheng said.

At the same time, Xia Sheng and his group, led by Yun'er, came to a courtyard west of the Marquis of Weining. The garden had no name, but the scenery was quite pleasing to the eye. Not only were the green trees, but there was even a living water in the courtyard, with an exquisite stone bridge on it, and several clusters of blooming peony flowers appeared and were hidden behind the rockery, with a vague fragrance, which was intoxicating.

Meng Qi was not interested in these scenery at all, but Ning Zheng was very interested and was amazed at a superb peony.

Seeing this, Yun'er couldn't help but smile and said, "It's a pity that you came here the wrong time. If it were earlier and we would catch up with the Peony Flower Club in Luoyang City, it would be lively!"

Speaking of this, Yun'er suddenly froze her face and her eyes suddenly became extremely dark.

Xia Sheng seemed to be moved and asked, "What's wrong with Miss Yun'er?"

Yun'er shook her head and murmured, "It's nothing, I just remembered a friend. She used to like lively."

Xia Sheng was shocked and took a deep breath, as if he had mustered up a lot of courage before finally blurting out the person's name: "Yes, Miss Shui'er?"

Yun'er's body trembled slightly, she tried to raise a smile, and said, "Yun'er forgot that Shui'er had been to Baima Town with the lady before, and she thought she knew Mr. Xia."

For a moment, Xia Sheng felt a little nervous, but he still asked the most important question: "Miss Shui'er...is she... still alive?"

Hearing this, waves of mist immediately rose in Yun'er's eyes. She raised her hand, gently wiped away the tears at the corners of her eyes, shook her head, but she couldn't say a word.

The last glimmer of hope in Xia Sheng's heart was finally completely broken. He looked at the peony flower not far away, and became sad with Yun'er for no reason.

...

At the same time, in the trial area of ​​the Ye family, in the secret realm of the Netherworld, he slammed the dark fire in front of him with a strong sword. He turned his head and found that his lady was standing in place, as if he was a little stunned.

"Miss?"

"Ah?" Ye Xiao'e came to her senses, and immediately stuck out her tongue playfully, and said with a smile: "Oh, I didn't know what happened just now, but I suddenly became a little distracted."

Upon hearing this, Hang Dali immediately became anxious: "Miss! I didn't let you come, so you insisted on following me in secret. This is not a paradise, but a dangerous place. If you are not careful, you will die! I was punished because I didn't protect the lady. If the lady had something else, I should not wait for Marshal Ye to punish him, and I would just make up for it myself!"

Ye Xiao'e argued immediately: "That's not what you said. Dali, you are punished. My father is so confused. If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have left Wangguilin alive. It would be fine if I didn't give you such a great contribution, but I would have to be punished. If you can accept this, I can't accept it!"

As he said that, Ye Xiaoe patted Dali's back with a bold pride and comforted him: "As the saying goes, good brothers should have blessings and hardships. How can I bear to see you being punished alone?"

Hang Dali was almost crying: "Miss, what are you talking about? Why is I a generation lower than Marshal Ye all of a sudden..."

Ye Xiaoe shook her head: "Oh, don't be polite to me, anyway, they all mean one meaning and the other meaning."

As they were talking, a burst of burning bones suddenly came from the side of the two people. A dark flower rushed up from the ground and rushed to Ye Xiao'e in an instant.

However, Ye Xiao'e was not panicked at all. The bright yellow spiritual energy burned outside her body was as stable as Mount Tai, and the cold air condensed in her hands remained unabated.

"Go, Xiaobai!"

With Ye Xiao'e's whistle, the next moment, an extremely solid ice wall was first erected in front of Ye Xiaoe. Then, a snake's tail relaxed from her arms and thrust violently on the ghost lotus, immediately smashing it to pieces.

The crisis resolved in an instant, but Ye Xiao'e's eyes became a little darker once again.

Hang Dali sighed softly and said, "Don't worry, Miss, that kid is not a short-lived ghost at first sight, he will definitely survive."

Ye Xiao'e raised her hand and gently stroked the spirit-locking ring on her wrist. Although the ice-armored demon dragon that was once trapped by her has become the second spirit beast in her body, she will never forget how this spirit snake came about.

In the dark, she seemed to miss the grilled fish that night.

Maybe there is the one who grills fish for her.

After hearing what Zhang Dali said, Ye Xiaoe lowered her head gently and said, "I just miss Shui'er a little."

This time, Zhang Dali stopped responding. He knew that it would take a long time to get the lady out of that pain. He also knew that there was no other water in this world that could replace the position in the lady's heart. He just didn't expect that the lady would suddenly become sentimental today.

So Hang Dali smiled reluctantly and said to Ye Xiaoe: "Miss, let's go here today. Let's find a place to rest for a while, and then continue to move forward after dawn."

Ye Xiao'e also found that her condition was not very good today. She was undoubtedly extremely fatal in this secret realm full of crises, so she nodded: "Okay."

After a while, Hang Dali found an excellent hiding place, which was a natural stone cave, which not only prevented the attack of the underworld beasts, but also hindered the invasion of the ghost fire. I thought I could spend this night safely.

Ye Xiao'e sat in the deepest part of the cave, picked up the dry food and ate it a few bites. For some reason, she felt a little chilled. So she subconsciously wrapped her clothes tightly, but before she knew it, she recalled the hug that panicked her.

She stretched out her arms, hugged her knees, and murmured in a voice that was so low that she couldn't even hear clearly, "Stupid hooligan, you are not allowed to die again..."
