Chapter 349
He will always remember the expressions of his parents at that moment: pain, sorrow, regret, resentment, unwillingness, annoyance, despair...
Everyone had a look on their face: I was wrong... I shouldn't have fought for power with Hong An... I should have died with them...
Ren Xiaoyao's father was once the best fighter in Tiandu City, but he failed to protect his wife, children and daughter.
Ren Xiaoyao's mother was the most beautiful woman in the world, but she turned love into hate and poisoned his father's wine, which eventually led to the death of her parents.
Ren Xiaoyao's grandfather, Ren Xiaoyao's maternal grandfather, once saved Hong An's life, but unfortunately he was used by him and it backfired on him. Now... he has failed.
Ren Xiaoyao smiled bitterly and shook his head.
"Are you giving up so soon?" came a clear and pleasant girl's voice.
Ren Xiaoyao turned his head and found a woman standing quietly not far away.
The woman was wearing a light green gauze dress, with a bright smile on her fair and cute face. Ren Xiaoyao was stunned, and a surge of excitement surged in his heart.
"Who are you?" Ren Xiaoyao blurted out.
“Hehe, we haven’t seen each other for so long, how come you don’t even remember me?” the woman said with a smile.
Ren Xiaoyao stared at the woman's face carefully for a long time, and suddenly asked in surprise: "You, you are Qing Ling?"
Qing Ling nodded and gave a mischievous smile.
"I never thought that I could see you again!" Ren Xiaoyao said with emotion.
Qing Ling smiled and said, "This world is so big, how do you know you can't see me?"
Ren Xiaoyao smiled bitterly: "I want to know, but I don't dare to think about it."
"Why are you so pessimistic?" Qing Ling looked at Ren Xiaoyao with worry in her eyes.
Ren Xiaoyao sighed: "This world is really too big, so big that it makes me despair."
Qing Ling was silent for a while, then suddenly smiled and said, "Don't you still have me?"
Ren Xiaoyao was stunned for a moment, then gave a bitter smile and shook his head.
Seeing this, Qing Ling's eyes dimmed. He couldn't do it.
Ren Xiaoyao sighed, turned around and prepared to leave.
"Ren Xiaoyao, are you leaving now?" A gloomy and cold voice sounded behind him.
Ren Xiaoyao turned around when he heard the voice and saw a tall and slender man in black standing in front of him. Ren Xiaoyao saw the other person's face clearly and asked in surprise: "Hong An?"
This man was none other than Hong An, whom he had met when he first crossed over. He still remembered that he was almost captured alive by Hong An, but he managed to escape by chance.
"Hahahaha! It's really like searching for something everywhere but finding it without any effort." Hong An laughed arrogantly, then stared at Ren Xiaoyao with a vicious look.
He looked at the young man in front of him, remembering how miserable he was when he was chased by Ren Xiaoyao, his eyes were filled with resentment: "Ren Xiaoyao, all this is because of you!"
He was once a well-known dandy in Tiandu City, but was fooled by Ren Xiaoyao, which made him lose face. In the end, he was forced by Ren Xiaoyao to leave Tiandu City and hide in Beiliang. He must get this account back with interest!
"I don't understand what you are talking about." Ren Xiaoyao frowned and said, "I didn't provoke you that day, why did you pick on me?"
"Hahahaha! You don't need to understand. If I want you to die, you must die! Ren Xiaoyao, I will definitely kill you this time!" Hong An roared ferociously.
Ren Xiaoyao added: "You don't have to feel sad for me. In the end, he failed to live up to his parents' expectations, failed to protect his home, and failed to let them live a good life.
Ren Xiaoyao's hands were clenched tightly, and his knuckles were slightly white.
Not far away, there were a few girls chatting. When they saw this scene, they screamed in fright and hid in the bushes.
Ren Xiaoyao came back to his senses, collected his emotions, and continued walking forward. He decided to go find his master - Ye Luochen!
Ye Luochen is a cultivator who has reached the Nascent Soul stage and has extraordinary strength. He is quite prestigious in the martial arts world and has a high status in the world of cultivation. Moreover, he was a descendant of a cultivation family when he was young, so Ren Xiaoyao wanted to worship him as his master. Ren Xiaoyao once asked him about his news, but he always kept silent. Later, Ren Xiaoyao learned from his father that he was practicing in a secluded forest in Jiangnan. Ren Xiaoyao thought that when his cultivation was more advanced, he would go to Jiangnan to find him and hope that he would take him in.
Ren Xiaoyao stayed in Jiangnan for several months, but he still couldn't find out the whereabouts of Ye Luochen. He had a strong premonition that he might lose this master forever.
Ren Xiaoyao's father passed away a year ago, and his mother died prematurely due to excessive grief. Ren Xiaoyao was alone, without relatives and nowhere to go. Ren Xiaoyao thought of his parents and came to Jiangnan.
Ren Xiaoyao approached several families, but when they heard that he was a cultivator, they all gave way.
When Ren Xiaoyao thought of Hong An's humiliation of him, his face suddenly darkened. He knew that Hong An wanted to kill him.
Ren Xiaoyao's fists gradually clenched, and murderous intent filled his heart.
Ren Xiaoyao thought to himself: I can't tell my parents about this, lest they worry. As for the grudge between him and Hong An, he will take revenge when he is strong enough.
Ren Xiaoyao calmed himself down and continued walking towards the northeast.
Along the way, Ren Xiaoyao met many people in the underworld. Although Ren Xiaoyao did not join any gang, he became famous at a young age and was admired by people in the underworld.
On several occasions, Ren Xiaoyao was even invited by people in the underworld, but he never joined.
Ren Xiaoyao has only one goal, and that is to become a god. After becoming a god, he wants everyone in the world to look up to him and bow down to him!
After Ren Xiaoyao traveled around the world, he finally arrived at the border of Western Xia.
Ren Xiaoyao looked from afar and found that it was a desolate city. The city was large, but there was no one living in the city. Ren Xiaoyao knew that this should be the legendary border town. Ren Xiaoyao decided to go to the border to get information and buy some food and wine to take back.
"Waiter, give me five pounds of beef!" Ren Xiaoyao said to the waiter as he walked down the street.
"Sir, would you like to eat meat?" the waiter asked with a smile.
"I want to find out some information!" Ren Xiaoyao said lightly.
The waiter nodded: Now, Ren Xiaoyao is powerless to save the situation. Now, he just hopes that he is not such a cowardly person. Ren Xiaoyao clenched his fist, his knuckles creaking, and his heart was full of determination.
Ren Xiaoyao turned his head and looked at the mountains beside him, thinking to himself: Dad and Mom, I am unfilial. Your spirits in heaven must bless me and let me return safely.
As the sky gradually darkened, waves of wolf howls could be heard from the forest. Ren Xiaoyao took out a yellow paper talisman from his arms and chanted the spell.
The yellow paper talisman flew into the air and turned into a golden dragon. The golden dragon flew to Ren Xiaoyao's shoulder and then disappeared. Ren Xiaoyao stood there waiting, and soon the golden dragon flew back. The golden dragon circled around Ren Xiaoyao's wrist for a few times, then flew into the air and disappeared.
This is a summoning technique that uses a special spell to summon a golden dragon to a certain location. In this way, Ren Xiaoyao can find the target under the guidance of the golden dragon. This summoning technique is a must for immortal cultivators.
When Ren Xiaoyao saw a group of wild wolves on Tiandu Mountain, he tried to use this summoning technique to summon them to help. Unfortunately, the wild wolf seemed to be unresponsive, and no matter how Ren Xiaoyao performed it, the wild wolf did not respond.
In the end, Ren Xiaoyao gave up the attempt. However, he remembered this summoning technique. He felt that if he encountered a crisis, he would be able to escape by using this summoning technique.
Ren Xiaoyao stood there for a while, but he broke his promise.
Ren Xiaoyao sighed, calmed himself down, and walked away.
In his memory, Tiandu City is the most prosperous and lively place, and it is also their hometown. His parents live in Tiandu City, the place he is most familiar with.
Ren Xiaoyao returned to Tiandu City. He sat down in a teahouse on the street, ordered a few dishes, and drank tea slowly. The fragrance of tea filled the air, making people feel refreshed.
Just as Ren Xiaoyao picked up the cup to drink tea, he suddenly heard footsteps.
Ren Xiaoyao looked up and saw three young men walking towards him from the opposite side.
Ren Xiaoyao looked at them carefully.
A man in red, with an arrogant look on his face, held a woman in his arms. The woman was wearing a gauze dress, revealing her white and attractive legs, and her chest was vaguely visible, which was very tempting.
The other two young men were both dressed in brocade and jade robes, with noble and elegant temperaments, and looked very young. These three people should be the young masters and young ladies in Tiandu City.
Ren Xiaoyao put down the cup and drank the tea calmly.
"Oh my, what a coincidence, isn't this Ren Xiaoyao?"
The young man in red shouted in surprise when he saw Ren Xiaoyao.
"It turns out to be Master Hong An. Nice to meet you." Ren Xiaoyao said politely, "Master, do you have any advice for me?"
When Hong An heard Ren Xiaoyao call him "Young Master", the corners of his mouth curled up slightly, and a smug smile appeared on his face.
Ren Xiaoyao closed his eyes and tears flowed down.
He didn't dare to open his eyes, for fear that after opening his eyes, he would still see an empty house.
Ren Xiaoyao wiped away his tears, stood up, turned around and walked away.
He has a lot of things in his heart that he needs to talk about.
When they reached an alley, Ren Xiaoyao stopped, leaned against the wall, and waited quietly.
After a while, there was a sound of footsteps. Ren Xiaoyao heard the footsteps and smiled.
After a while, a middle-aged woman came out, holding a baby in her arms. This middle-aged woman was Ren Xiaoyao's mother. Ren Xiaoyao's father died early, so he only had one mother, Li. Li was ordinary-looking, bloated, dark red skin, thin body, and sallow complexion.
As soon as Li came close, Ren Xiaoyao hugged her tightly in his arms.
Li was stunned for a moment, then stretched out his right hand and patted Ren Xiaoyao's shoulder.
Ren Xiaoyao placed his forehead against Li's and whispered, "Mom, I'm back."
Li felt the warmth of Ren Xiaoyao's body, and a feeling of sadness welled up in her heart: "My child, you have worked hard."
Ren Xiaoyao shook his head, hugged Li tightly, buried his head in her neck, greedily sniffing the scent that belonged to his mother.
After a long time, Ren Xiaoyao raised his head from Li's neck and said, "Mom, why are you so thin?"
"You've been gone for more than ten years. "Oh God, am I destined to never be able to repay my family for saving my life in this lifetime?" Ren Xiaoyao looked up at the sky, heartbroken, with tears streaming down his face.
"Brother Xiaoyao! Why are you crying!" Suddenly, a clear female voice came into my ears.
Ren Xiaoyao looked in the direction of the voice and saw a sweet-looking girl in a pink dress standing beside him. The girl was about ten years old, with round and fair skin and delicate facial features, as cute and smart as a fairy child in a painting. Her black pupils sparkled with a ripple-like luster, as clear as a pool of autumn water, which made people feel pity for her. Her lips were slightly open, revealing a row of white pearly teeth, giving people the feeling of a girl next door.
Ren Xiaoyao was stunned for a moment, then suddenly burst into laughter: "Haha... So this was a dream."
The girl looked at Ren Xiaoyao in confusion, not knowing what was going on.
