Chapter 457 Do you want to go see your parents?
Xiao Batian's eyebrows twitched involuntarily as he listened to the conversation between Xiao Wanwan and Zi Buyan.
He now felt a little sympathetic towards Wanwan's master.
What kind of evil disciples and evil sons have they raised?
They actually thought of using lightning-struck wood to make his coffin.
Is this feeling something that an ordinary person, oh no, an ordinary ghost can bear?
After the discussion, the coffin was actually replaced with an urn.
This will make him unable to close his eyes even after death.
But when Zi Buyan's piece of lightning-struck wood came out, it hit Xiao Batian's heart heavily.
He suddenly stood up, took a few steps forward, and circled around the black and purple lightning-struck wood with shining eyes.
"It's top quality! It's really a top quality that is rarely seen in a thousand years!"
Xiao Batian stroked his long beard and reached out to touch it carefully.
"Grandpa, keep one piece with you for self-defense!"
Xiao Wanwan looked at Xiao Batian with surprise, with her hands behind her back, looking somewhat smug.
Xiao Batian returned to his chair and sat down, waving his hands repeatedly: "No! Wanwan, Grandpa has already accepted a lot from you."
He felt a little ashamed at this moment. If he asked for Junior Brother Wanwan's treasure again, he would lose his old face.
"It's okay, Yan'er and I have discussed it!"
A cold light flashed in Xiao Wanwan's hand, and she raised her sword and cut off a piece of the lightning-struck wood.
Zi Buyan, with a hundred-flower cake in his mouth, nodded and mumbled:
"Grandpa Xiao, feel free to take it. My dad doesn't need that much."
Looking at the top-grade lightning-struck wood in his hand, Xiao Batian felt like he was in a dream.
Just now, he was still worried about finding the ten thousand year old lightning struck wood.
"Okay, then I'll accept it. Thank you!"
Yun Mubai was thinking about what Xiao Batian had just said and remained silent.
I wonder if there is any situation at Brahma College.
However, since I'm here, I must stay overnight.
Let Wanwan and her siblings have a good reunion with their family.
Thinking of this, he stood up tactfully and said with a smile:
"Grandpa Xiao, my fellow apprentices and I have been traveling for days and are quite tired. Let's go down and rest first, so we won't bother you anymore."
Xiao Batian knew what he meant and said with a smile: "It's my fault now!"
Then, he raised his voice and ordered, "Come here, send these distinguished guests to the guest rooms to rest."
Yun Mubai and the others bowed slightly to Xiao Batian and followed the Xiao family's servants out of the living room.
Xiao Wanwan watched Yun Mubai and the others leave, then started chatting with Xiao Batian and Ling Xiyan.
Xiao Batian had a complicated expression, and after some hesitation he spoke:
"Wanwan, do you want to go see your parents?"
Xiao Wanwan looked up in confusion and hugged Ling Xiyan's arm: "Grandpa, aren't my parents here?"
Ling Xiyan gently touched her little face and said:
"Wanwan, your grandfather was talking about my eldest brother and his wife!"
Xiao Batian frowned slightly, with a look of sadness on his face:
"Wanwan, ever since they were expelled from the Xiao family, they've been living in extreme poverty. Now they've received their retribution and are nearing death. Do you want to go see them one last time?"
Xiao Wanwan was stunned for a moment, then slowly shook her head:
"Grandpa, let's not meet them! I'm afraid they still resent me. Why bother making them unhappy?"
In her memory, there was no Xiao Yanhe and Ye Chuxue.
To Xiao Wanwan, these two people were like strangers.
Therefore, no matter how they treated her at the beginning, she would not care.
In other words, now that she heard that they would not live long, she felt no wavering in her heart.
"Alas..." Xiao Batian sighed, "If I don't want to see you, then I won't see you."
He just couldn't bear to see that rebellious son die without even a close relative by his side.
But if you think about what the couple had done in the past, it is also the cycle of cause and effect, and retribution is inevitable.
It's understandable that Wanwan doesn't want to see them.
Seeing Xiao Batian's gloomy expression, Ling Xiyan gave Xiao Wensheng a subtle wink.
Xiao Wensheng received a look from his mother and sighed in his heart.
This is really my mother. She ignores it and throws it aside when it is not needed.
I will only remember this son when I need him.
How to do it?
He had to obey his mother's orders.
Xiao Wensheng smiled and moved closer to Xiao Batian:
"Grandpa, I encountered some puzzles while practicing at Brahma Academy. Could you give me some pointers?"
With Xiao Wensheng's interruption, Xiao Batian's attention was immediately focused on him.
This is the only child of the next generation of his Xiao family. How could he not value him?
"Wen Sheng, if there's anything you don't understand, talk to Grandpa."
Xiao Wensheng supported Xiao Batian and said, "Grandpa, let's go to your study and talk."
He winked at Ling Xiyan and Xiao Wanwan, then helped Xiao Batian out of the living room.
The next morning!
Yun Mubai led Feng Lizhou and others to say goodbye to Xiao Batian. Under everyone's reluctant gaze, they jumped onto the spaceship and headed towards Brahma Academy.
The journey was smooth and the group soon arrived at Brahma College.
As soon as they walked into the academy gate, they noticed something was wrong.
In the past, there were groups of students walking around the college.
The academy is now deserted. Even in the square which is usually the busiest place, the students who set up stalls to sell things are nowhere to be seen.
"Strange!" Xiao Wanwan looked around in confusion. "Big Brother, what's going on? Why is there no one around?"
"Something's wrong. Could it be that something big happened in the academy while we were away?"
Chu Yanhao scratched his head, the confusion in his eyes was obvious.
Feng Lizhou, Dong Yi, Xiao Wensheng and Xiao Shengsheng all had the same look of disbelief on their faces.
Yun Mubai also glanced around and said in a deep voice, "Let's go back to the Dharma Cultivation Department first. The headmaster will naturally tell us the reason."
Everyone stopped talking, even Zi Buyan, who usually talked a lot, kept his mouth shut.
The group quickly arrived at the foot of the mountain where the Law Cultivation Department was located. They all flew into the air and slowly landed at the entrance of the Law Cultivation Department.
“Clack…”
As soon as Xiao Wanwan landed on the ground, Huahua emerged from the grass, flapped its wings and flew in front of her.
“Flower…”
Xiao Wanwan and Huang'er spoke at the same time, and Huahua rubbed Xiao Wanwan affectionately.
Xiao Wanwan had no intention of teasing it at this moment. She patted its little head and said:
"Huahua, go play with Huang'er. I have something else to do."
Huahua suddenly became dejected, ignored Huang'er, turned around and walked away with her head down.
Xiao Wanwan smiled helplessly, and walked quickly towards the main hall of the Law Cultivation Department with Yun Mubai and others.
Sect Leader Yu Yuan was still sitting outside the door under the peach tree, drinking tea. Seeing Xiao Wanwan and the others approaching from afar, he smiled and said,
"Are you back?"
Yun Mubai and his companions walked up to Master Yuan and bowed respectfully:
"Disciples greet the Master!"
Sect Leader Yu Yuan sat in front of the tea table and waved his hand calmly.
"No need to be so polite. Did everything go well this time?"
