Crunch.

The door was pushed open, and the moonlight extended a path of light, and in that path of light, a slender body walked in slowly, and the pair of clear eyes were a little trembling at this time.

She walked into the room, bowed her head slightly, her two small hands tightly twisted together, her eyes evaded, but she did not dare to look at the man on the bed.

Lin Dong, who was sitting cross-legged on the bed, looked at the girl who walked in, and after a long time, he saw that the latter seemed to have no sign of speaking, so he shook his head helplessly, and said, "Xinqing, is there something wrong?"

Xinqing bit her small mouth tightly, and the little hands that were twisted together even became a little blue because of the exertion, and her heart seemed to be quite struggling.

Lin Dong looked at her quietly, and no longer spoke.

The silence lasted in the room for a few minutes, and finally there was a splash in Xinqing's eyes, and then she suddenly knelt down.

"Lord Lin Dong"

Lin Dong stared at Xinqing and smiled: "Your mother asked you to come, right?"

"Hmm. ”

"If I'm not mistaken, your mother wants you to stay here tonight, right? Why? Do you want the Nine-Tails to get my protection?" Lin Dong said softly.

"I'm sorry" Xinqing's eyes were red, and the splash couldn't stop flowing: "I know that I'm sorry for Sister Xinlian, just for the sake of the clan, I can give everything, even if it's my life or body." ”

"The Nine-Tails used to be powerful, but I don't have the same ambitions to restore glory. I just want my people to survive without worrying about being caught and becoming slave girls at will. ”

Lin Dong looked at the girl who was kneeling on the ground and crying so sadly, and sighed lightly, Aunt Xin wanted to put the honor and disgrace of a race on the shoulders of such a weak girl, but it was too heavy

"I know Lord Lin Dong's temperament, my mother's method will definitely not work, but you can let me sit here all night. I'll explain it to my mother tomorrow. ”

Lin Dong sighed, he stepped off the bed, and then came to sit next to Xinqing. Looking at the girl's crying little face, she smiled: "I come from a very small dynasty family in the Eastern Xuan Domain, you know? There is an enemy, and that enemy has the strength to easily obliterate my family."

"My father, when he was seriously injured and became a waste, there was a world of difference in strength between me and him, he was a brilliant genius in that dynasty, and I was just an unknown person in a small family. ”

Xinqing stopped sobbing, and looked at the young man with a bright smile in front of her with red eyes, she couldn't imagine it, this Lian Moro. The pheasant, a man who is highly valued by the top powerhouses in heaven and earth, actually has such a past

"The story that followed was very simple, I learned to forbear, and gradually became stronger through the experience, and finally. I killed him."

Lin Dong stretched out his palm, touched the girl's little head, and said softly: "I know that your race is very difficult, but in this world, you want to really protect the people you care about. You can only rely on your own strength. ”

"Your starting point is much better than mine, at this age, it is the strength of the Xuan Realm, which is a super genius in my dynasty, so, believe in yourself, one day, you will let the Nine-Tails Clan stand in this demon world again. ”

"At that time, you would think how unnecessary all this was today, of course, if there is a day, you don't hate me, I don't want to provoke an angry nine-tailed fox"

"Poof. ”

The girl couldn't help laughing, and then the tip of her upturned nose twitched slightly, and her eyes looked at Lin Dong with sparkling eyes: "Does Lord Lin Dong think I can do it?"

"Of course, you have that potential. Lin Dong said with a smile.

Hearing this, the girl gritted her silver teeth slightly, and her little hand suddenly clenched, and at this moment, Lin Dong could see that in the depths of her eyes, there seemed to be a cluster of flames rising.

"Thank you, Lord Lin Dong, I know what to do. ”

Xinqing smiled playfully at Lin Dong: "Now I know why even Sister Xinlian, who has such a high vision, will take a fancy to you"

"Ahem, I'm just friends with her. Lin Dong said embarrassedly.

Xinqing looked at Lin Dong's face, suddenly leaned forward with a petite body, a pair of slender and slender arms gently hugged Lin Dong, and said in a low voice: "Lord Lin Dong, you are right, if you want to truly change the Nine-Tails Clan, we can only rely on our own strength, if we lose that courage, we will not blame others for living for a long time."

Lin Dong was slightly stunned, and just wanted to speak, the softness in his arms had already retreated, and then the girl got up and winked at him: "Lord Lin Dong, rest early, Xinqing is disturbed." ”

The voice fell, and the girl was out of the room, only the faint fragrance remained.

Lin Dong looked at the back of the girl who came out of the door, the latter seemed to have changed something, and he could feel that some of the timidity that originally existed in the girl's eyes was completely dissipated at this time.

However, I hope she can get better and better, he regards Xinqing as a friend, and he will naturally help if he can, but he doesn't want to rely on his help, after all, as he said, if you want to change, you still have to rely on yourself after all

In the nine-tailed village in the night, the girl ran in it, and then she rushed into the ancestral hall of the clan with some breath, where she met Aunt Xin and several elders of the clan.

"Xinqing?" Aunt Xin looked at the girl who rushed in, but she was slightly stunned.

The elders glanced at each other, but they didn't speak, thinking that they also knew what Xinqing would do tonight

"Mother, I said that your method is useless to Lord Lin Dong. Xinqing smiled faintly.

Aunt Xin's eyes darkened slightly, and then she shook her head with a wry smile, she raised her head, and muttered in a slightly sad tone: "Is this the fate of my Nine-Tails Clan?"

"I'm going to the Ancestral Soul Palace!"

The girl's firm voice suddenly sounded in the ancestral hall. Aunt Xin and the others trembled when they heard this, and immediately raised their heads in astonishment, looking at the pair of eyes that were holding their little hands tightly, but there was no wavering and timidity at this time.

"I want to break through, even if I fail and die in the end, I will never regret it!"

Xinqing's eyes stared at Aunt Xin tightly: "I know that the Ancestral Soul Hall can only be opened one last time." That is the last chance for our Nine-Tails, but if we continue to be cowardly like this, our Nine-Tails will continue to decline. ”

"Mother. Rather than living in fear every day, it is better to give it a go, and if you still fail in the end. That is, God destined that my Nine-Tails Clan would no longer be able to forge glory, in that case"

At this point, the girl's eyes became resolute and poignant: "It's better to let the Nine-Tails Clan automatically disappear into this world as soon as possible, so that at least, I can still let the Nine-Tails Clan maintain the last bit of dignity." ”

The entire ancestral hall became silent at this time, and Aunt Xin's face was pale, and her eyes were also a little shocked, they didn't expect that this cowardly and weak girl on weekdays. At this moment, it is surprisingly sharp

"Patriarch"

The silence lasted for a long time, and a woman's palm clenched violently: "Xinqing is right, although we only have one last chance, but instead of waiting in such a mess." It's better to put your expectations on getting shelter from others than to really fight once!"

"If the ancestors bless, my Nine-Tails clan can also have a time to regain glory, if it really fails, then it is really not interesting to live like this. ”

The rest of the people were also silent, but their eyes were deep. It was as if there was a flame that had been suppressed for a long time.

Aunt Xin's body trembled, and finally she couldn't help crying: "I know that we are all tired like this, but I just want to protect our people, our clan, we have suffered too much." ”

"So mother, let's fight one last time. Xinqing walked up, knelt beside Aunt Xin, held her cold palm with her little hand, and smiled.

Aunt Xin looked at the girl in front of her, and tears kept falling: "You will die, in the past thousands of years, no one of the clansmen who entered the ancestral soul hall can survive, there is a cursed place of death"

"It's better than not knowing when the big man will take a fancy to him and be taken as a concubine or even a slave girl, right?" Xinqing said softly.

Aunt Xin looked at this daughter who was suddenly more mature and determined than them, and the last stubbornness in her heart was finally completely shattered, she stroked Xinqing's soft long hair with her palm, and then gritted her teeth and nodded: "Then open the Ancestral Soul Palace!"

On Xinqing's cheeks, there was finally a happy look welling up: "Mother, thank you!"

Aunt Xin wiped away the tears on her cheeks and said, "If you fail, then from now on, there will be no more Nine-Tails Clan in this heaven and earth." ”

"Tomorrow I will gather the clansmen, announce the news, and then send you to the Ancestral Soul Palace!"

"Hmm!"

The congealed atmosphere in the ancestral hall finally dispersed a lot at this time, perhaps because the final decision was made, and the cheeks of Aunt Xin were no longer depressed, but smiled a little more.

"It seems that the Ancestral Soul Hall is a very dangerous place."

Suddenly, a laugh interjected, startling everyone in the ancestral hall, and then turning their heads, they saw a figure leaning against the door at some point.

"Lord Lin Dong?!" Xinqing looked at the figure, was stunned for a moment, and quickly wiped the splash on her cheeks.

Aunt Xin looked at Lin Dong, and immediately got up and saluted him: "Little brother Lin Dong, what happened before, it was the concubine who was reckless, please don't be surprised." ”

Lin Dong shrugged, glanced at Xinqing, and said, "Then the Ancestral Soul Palace, can outsiders enter?"

Aunt Xin was stunned and said, "You can enter, but it's very dangerous there." ”

Xinqing's little face changed at this time, and she hurriedly said: "Lord Lin Dong, no."

"I'll accompany her to the Ancestral Soul Palace. ”

Lin Dong ignored the girl's objection, stretched his waist and turned away, and when he left, there was still a murmuring sound.

"It's really just a casual comfort, how can you comfort yourself to such a desperate way, what a failure?"

Xinqing heard those murmurs, but her little hands couldn't help but cover her mouth, and the water splashed together, and big drops rolled down.
