Nine Star Burden - Chapter 728
Chapter 728: A tail in the forest
Translator: 549690339
Tree Island wasn’t large, and the forest covered more than 90% of the island. Other than a circle of sand, the island was full of green plants.
Under Kong Lingkai and Li Wan Yu’s guidance, the group walked into the island. After walking for nearly 20 minutes, they found that there was a whole new world on the island.
There was nothing more artistic than the lake in the forest. If some embellishments were added, the wooden house that was built facing the lake would be the finishing touch.
To Xia Yan’s surprise, there was a huge open space in the forest not far from the lakeside house, in which the wedding architectural style had already been built. In front of the arch made of fresh flowers, there was a long empty road with three rows of seats on both sides.
It could be seen that there were not many people attending the wedding. At the very least, there were only a few seats arranged. There were only 24 seats.
Xia Yan stood by the lake and looked at the wedding venue from afar. She said with envy,””It’s so beautiful. It’s like a dream-like wedding scene.”
The blue sky, white clouds, forests, and lakes were indeed very beautiful.
Hai Tianqing had mentioned before that he and Fang Xingyun were planning to hold a “small” party. Perhaps it was because of the Fang family, but they could only choose to do so. One thing was for sure, the guests they invited were all very close to the man and woman.
“Waa! Pipi!” A girl’s voice was heard. The group of five, who were walking on a small bridge in the middle of the lake, couldn’t help but stop and turn around.
He saw a little girl of about eight or nine years old, wearing a White Princess dress and a beautiful white and yellow floral wreath on her head. She looked like a little angel and was staring at Jiang Xiao with her big, adorable eyes.
Her eyes seemed to be filled with stars. When she saw Jiang Xiao looking back at her, she blushed and covered her mouth with one hand.”Pi … Pipi!”
Jiang Xiao smiled and waved his hand.
“Wow, pipi!” The little girl couldn’t care less about her shyness and quickly ran over, as if she had seen her beloved toy. Her shoulder-length hair fluttered along with her running movements, and the garland on her head almost fell.
The more Jiang Xiao looked at her, the more he felt that something was amiss. She ran faster and faster, and it seemed like she was not going to stop …
Jiang Xiao looked at the human cannonball and made a shocking move.
Jiang Xiao actually got into a horse stance!
Steady~
“Oh.” The little girl indeed pounced into Jiang Xiao’s arms.
In order to prevent the little girl from bumping into him, Jiang Xiao took a step back and spun around to absorb the force.
Isn’t this too stable?
“It’s real, alive, pipi!” The little girl rubbed her face against Jiang Xiao’s chest and even sniffed at it. After that, her expression changed.
He took two steps back,””Pipi is so salty.”
Jiang Xiao was speechless.
They had just come out of the sea, so how could they not be salty?
The little girl’s expression was a little strange, and her little head seemed to have crashed. Perhaps in her fantasy, the radiant God Pi should be the smell of milk?
“Toto, slow down. Toto …” A couple hurriedly chased after them from the woods. When they saw Jiang Xiao and the others, they were also taken aback.
The middle-aged woman was very rich, and one could tell at a glance that she was not a Star Warrior. She smiled and apologized,””Toto was too rash. She likes you very much.”
Jiang Xiao took the floral shirt from Han Jiangxue’s hand without leaving a trace and hurriedly put it on.
The little girl looked down at the water stains on her White Princess dress and wiped it with her small hands. She said to Jiang Xiao,””I’m song Duoduo! Go and take a shower, I’ll like you again!”
Ding dong! I’ve gained a little fangirl~
Jiang Xiao smiled and nodded at the family of three.
Sure enough, the guests invited to the wedding were all above a certain age. Most of them were married and had children.
Jiang Xiao thought to himself,’poor Fang Xingyun, it’s all thanks to this matchmaker. Otherwise, you don’t know when you’ll be able to catch up with your friends.’
Everyone walked into the huge wooden house by the lake. As Fang Xingyun’s brother, Kong Lingkai naturally became the manager and arranged rooms for everyone. The little guys were arranged to stay on the second floor, and at the end of the corridor on the second floor, Jiang Xiao saw an incredible person!
A person he had met once!
Xu Li.
Jiang Xiao wasn’t too familiar with the name Xu Li, but he was familiar with Xu Li’s code name: One tail!
In the past, when Jiang Xiao was still a rookie who couldn’t bear to look at the newbies, he met two great gods when the mercenaries invaded the snowfield. The first and second last.
Due to what happened later, Jiang Xiao and second last became life-and-death comrades.
At that time, hai Tianqing and his team of four were detained by the night guards and locked up in the prison. They were wearing star power handcuffs, and they were just in time for the mercenaries to attack, causing the entire prison to collapse.
In a critical situation, second last chose to save Jiang Xiao and rushed out of the prison with him. It was only after that that the battle between her and the mercenary leader happened.
This world was such a wonderful place. If Yiwei had chosen to save Jiang Xiao at that time, perhaps there wouldn’t have been a series of stories that followed.
In any case, the two of them would definitely go and rescue Jiang Xiao, who was the only one trapped. However, under the arrangements of the team, one last would stay to fight the enemy while second last would leave with Jiang Xiao.
It was obvious that Xu Li had heard the sound of someone going upstairs, so he came out from the room at the end of the corridor to take a look.
Jiang Xiao and Xu Li looked at each other and were both stunned.
It was because Jiang Xiao had recalled a memory that was deeply hidden in his mind.
Xu Li, on the other hand, was thinking about how this unremarkable child had achieved such astonishing achievements in a short few years.
Xu Li’s room was on the left side of the stairs. Kong Lingkai led the group to the right side of the stairs. There was a long corridor between them. The two of them nodded to each other, and Xu Li turned around and walked back into the room.
Jiang xiaopi, do you know him?” Kong Lingkai asked curiously.
“Ah,” he said. Jiang Xiao came back to his senses and nodded.”Why?”
Kong Lingkai shrugged his shoulders and said,”hai Tianqing said that he’s a friend. This man didn’t even reveal his name. He’s very mysterious.”
He didn’t even reveal his name.
He probably had some unspeakable secret.
Besides, it was already beyond Jiang Xiao’s expectations that Xu Li would attend hai Tianqing’s wedding.
Xu Li used to be the captain of the tail feathers team and now, the team was given to second last. Second last had also carried forward the tail feathers team and turned it into the tail feathers Regiment. Xu Li should be standing at a very high position now.
Hai Tianqing was the person who had been fired. Xu Li’s presence at hai Tianqing’s wedding represented too much.
They were still brothers, and this also meant that Xu Li had acknowledged hai Tianqing.
In contrast, second last …
Jiang Xiao shook his head and got rid of those messy thoughts. He was then arranged to enter a small room and asked curiously,””Oh right, where are teacher hai and the others?”
Kong Lingkai laughed out loud.”I’m floating on the sea. I don’t know where I’m floating to. Something happened to your teacher Fang. He needs some time to calm down.”
Jiang Xiao chuckled and asked,’what’s wrong? Pre-marriage phobia?”
Li Wanyu looked at Jiang Xiao reproachfully and said,””Don’t say it in front of her. She’s under too much pressure at home. ”
“Oh, Okay, okay.” Jiang Xiao nodded repeatedly.
After making arrangements for the accommodation, Kong Lingkai and Li Wanyu left. Jiang Xiao thought about it for a while, then walked out of the room and headed to the end of the corridor.
One tail.
The former captain of the tail feathers team!
He was famous, but he had never had the honor of speaking a few words.
Jiang Xiao walked towards the door and knocked on it gently.
Crack.
The wooden door opened and the burly man, who was more than two meters tall, looked down at Jiang Xiao. Not only was he taller than second last, but he was also larger in size.
However, to be honest … The pressure he gave Jiang Xiao was far less than what second last gave him.
Auras were invisible, but they could be compared.
It was especially so for a warrior like Jiang Xiao who had experienced hundreds of battles. He was very sensitive to the aura of a Star Warrior, perhaps because Xu Li was a shield warrior. He was not a Slayer, but more like a Guardian.
Xu Li opened the door, walked into the house, and sat on the wooden chair.
Jiang Xiao leaned against the door frame and did not enter.
Xu Li raised his head to look at Jiang Xiao with a serious expression, but he smiled and said,””She didn’t misjudge you,”
Jiang Xiao didn’t say anything.
“I heard that you’ve become Nine-Tailed,” Xu Li said.
Jiang Xiao said,”I wanted to be the boss. I wanted to be the first. She rejected me.”
Xu Li nodded his head thoughtfully.”What do you want?”
“I’m listening to stories,”Jiang Xiao said.
“Huh?”
Jiang Xiao said,”second last won’t tell me. Fourth last can’t ask. Hence, you’re the only one left on the team.”
Xu Li seemed to have understood what Jiang Xiao meant. What questions can’t fourth last ask when second last doesn’t answer? It was obviously third last’s problem.
That was also a problem that had been troubling Jiang Xiao.
“Why should I say that?” Xu Li asked.
Jiang Xiao said with a smile,”there are many people in the tail feathers team. However, there are only two people in the tail feathers team. Second last and I.”
In her tail feather Regiment, there were many loyal soldiers and powerful warriors who had been selected through many rounds. Most of them were personally selected by her, and there were also comrades who had gone through life and death with her.
However, no matter what she had experienced, those people would always be her subordinates, her subordinates.
As for her true teammate, I’m the only one. ”
“So?” the corner of Xu Li’s mouth curled up.
Jiang Xiao said,’that’s why I want to take better care of her and get to know the team better. I’ll try to untie the knot in your heart. ”
The room fell into silence.
The two of them only chatted for a short while before going straight to the main topic. The atmosphere was indeed not very friendly.
As time passed, no one in the room spoke.
“You’re here,” Jiang Xiao said.”It’s because you still approve of hai Tianqing.”
“To a certain extent,” Xu Li finally replied.
Jiang Xiao asked,’what about third last? Do you agree?”
Xu Li pondered for a while and said something unexpected,””To a certain extent.”
“All the more reason you have to tell me,” Jiang Xiao said.
Thump thump thump …
The sound of shoes stepping on the stairs stopped their conversation.
The two of them seemed to be in a hurry. Jiang Xiao leaned against the door frame and turned around, only to see a couple on the second floor.
Happiness, happiness, surprise.
Jiang Xiao couldn’t find any expression on Fang Xingyun’s face that he should have when he had prenuptial phobia.
“Ya! Xiaopi is here!” Fang Xingyun looked around and found Jiang Xiao. He then walked towards him quickly.
Hai Tianqing was also elated. However, he was slightly taken aback when he saw Jiang Xiao standing in front of Xu Li’s door.
“Ms. Fang, you look so happy!” Jiang Xiao opened his arms and gently hugged Fang Xingyun, patting her back.
“Hehe.” Fang Xingyun smiled gently and stood up straight. He gently rubbed Jiang Xiao’s head and said,”Duoduo is right. You smell so salty.”
“Salty?” Jiang Xiao grinned and said,”not only is it salty, but I’m also bitter and astringent!”
Jiang Xiao then looked past Fang Xingyun’s shoulder and at hai Tianqing. He said with a smile,””Is this the taste of love?”
Hai Tianqing nodded subconsciously, but he quickly reacted. Looking at the unfriendly look in Fang Xingyun’s eyes, he waved his hands and spoke in his hometown dialect in a hurry,””No, no, love is sweet, super sweet!”
Fang Xingyun’s beautiful eyes sized up hai Tianqing. Then, she let out a soft ‘Hmph’ and turned her head.
Hai Tianqing, who was a gentle and refined person, grabbed the back of Jiang Xiao’s neck and lifted him up like a bamboo rat. He even dangled him in the air and said,””You brat, you’ve just arrived and you’re already scheming Against Me! How can I be at ease with you being my best man?”
“Ah?” Jiang Xiao shook his head and asked in a trembling voice,”best man? You didn ‘t~tell~me~ah~”
“I added it at the last minute.” Fang Xingyun explained,”we had wanted to simplify everything, but I have a best friend who insists on being the bridesmaid.”
Jiang Xiao’s eyes immediately lit up.”Is it~good-looking~?”
“Stop shaking.” Fang Xingyun placed one hand on hai Tianqing’s arm and said,”her child is already nine years old. You’ve seen him before. His child is our Flower Boy, song Duoduo.”
A 9-year-old flower girl, isn’t she a little old?
Sigh, forget it. After all, the conditions were limited.
Jiang Xiao was lifted in the air and turned his head with difficulty. He looked at hai Tianqing and said,””You can be the best man yourself. Isn’t that your main career?”
Hai Tianqing was speechless.
Looking at hai Tianqing, who was about to go berserk, Jiang Xiao hurriedly said,””Alright, alright, please, let go of me … What do best men have to do?”
“Quickly let go.” Fang Xingyun smacked hai Tianqing’s palm with all his might, and Jiang Xiao finally landed on the ground.
“Let’s go,” Fang Xingyun said.”We’ve ordered a suit for you. Go and try it on. If it doesn’t fit, go and change into it.”
Fang Xingyun then dragged Jiang Xiao away.
Hai Tianqing stood at the door and saw Xu Li in the room. He opened his mouth for a long time before he said,””Thank you for coming.”
Xu Li’s serious expression faded, and he smiled as he nodded.”Thank you for inviting me. Many people wanted to come, but you didn’t give me the chance.”
Hai Tianqing smiled helplessly.
“Hongying (Luan Hongying’s second last), have you invited him?” Xu Li asked.
Hai Tianqing forced a smile and didn’t reply. He just waved his hand and turned to leave.
