C116 Fragile Girl

Qiong Wu, who was disguised as Xia Ling, also received an order from the family.

However, it was a coincidence that the area Xia Ling was guarding was actually the frontline of the Xia Family refining and alchemy room.

Ever since Song Shengcheng entered, this alchemy room had almost been abolished, so it was not an important area. It was no different from any ordinary house.

Normally, no aristocratic family would let the alchemy room be empty, but the current situation was one where the Xia Family alchemists did not cooperate.

Master Zhu was originally a carefree person, so he didn't care about extravagant food. After Song Shengcheng came, he wouldn't be vexed under the influence of others. Even if he couldn't save Second Miss, he could still escape far away, right?

Therefore, Master Zhu left straightforwardly.

Song Shengcheng didn't expect the apothecary to be so decisive. This time, he didn't bring any more apothecaries with him. Apothecary was a prestigious occupation, but it wasn't something that could be found in a short period of time. Thus, the alchemy lab was empty.

It had been three months since anyone had come.

Xia Ling was also surprised. He did not expect Master Zhu to be such a courageous person. However, what surprised him even more was that Song Shengcheng did not pay any attention to the alchemy lab.

Even without apothecaries, the alchemy room was one of the most important areas of the family. There was no need to let the newly joined cultivators take care of this place, was there?

Forget it, this is good as well. It can be more adequate when preparing himself.

If he were to rely solely on his own strength, it might not be too safe in the face of a high-level Congealing Void cultivator. However, if he could use the pill's help again, Xia Ling was confident that he could pull him down!

It was just that he already understood the various defensive arrangements within the Xia Family. The locations of those few cultivators from the Congealing Void were also very clear. Maybe they could go see Second Miss.

In a study room. Xia Yanru was writing something on the desk, wearing a light white and green cotton dress.

Despite her natural beauty, the girl still looked haggard. She did not have much makeup on, so she simply combed her hair into a ponytail and put it behind her.

He looked tired.

To deal with Song Shengcheng every day, he had to bear a lot of pressure. He had to buy time and prevent incurring his anger, thereby harming himself.

She suddenly stopped writing, supported her forehead with her hands, and sighed softly.

There was still not enough time.

According to Xia Yanru's calculations, as long as another two months passed, her father would be able to barely display the strength of a middle stage Congealing Void. This way, his Xia Family could be considered to have a central fighting strength. This way, Song Shengcheng would have to take some things into consideration.

And the power she had sent to the capital, was secretly instigating the internal Soong Family to counter Song Shengcheng. Although he, Song Shengcheng, was strong, he was only the third young master in the capital's Soong Family. This time, they had mobilized so many of their family's forces, just in case something went wrong. How could he let go of this opportunity, his brothers who were already envious and jealous of Di?

As long as there were waves in the capital and this was the base, Song Shengcheng would definitely not be able to sit here. The capital and Ningnan City were far away, it was simply impossible to command them from afar! At that time, Song Shengcheng could only give up on these two evils!

This was Xia Yanru's plan.

Unfortunately, due to her lack of strength, Xia Yanru didn't even have control over her own fate. There were too many things in this plan that were hard for her to control. What if my father wasn't strong enough after he woke up? What if the reaction of the Soong Family wasn't fast enough? What if Song Shengcheng gambled everything on this …

This feeling was truly painful. Even if he could do the best, he might not be able to succeed. Hope was placed on someone else just like that.

And this hope seemed to be about to be extinguished.

Just now, Song Shengcheng had sent someone to give her the final ultimatum.

The transfer of all the properties and records of Xia Family were completed within three days. He then immediately headed for the capital.

And before he left, Song Shengcheng wanted to marry her.

Hearing this news, Xia Yanru didn't get too excited. She only calmly and woodenly nodded her head.

She had expected Song Shengcheng to make this decision, so she wasn't surprised. However, this way, the hope of his Xia Family escaping his control would be even slimmer …0

It was so faint that it could be ignored.

Xia Yanru felt a grey fog enveloping her as she sunk deeper and deeper into it, unable to extricate herself …

She had the urge to give up. He didn't want to struggle anymore. In the face of absolute strength, no amount of planning was of any use.

No, he still couldn't give up!

Xia Yanru had just lowered her head when a bright light appeared in her eyes once more. Before his sister left, he had promised her that he would shoulder the heavy responsibility of the clan.

Should he wait for her to return and leave behind a family that would die in name only? How sad and desperate her sister must be!

There was still a chance. Three days. There was still a chance.

At that moment, she suddenly heard a knock on the door.

Xia Yanru raised her head doubtfully. Since when did that group of people come in and start knocking on the door?

Song Shengcheng and the people under him had never been so polite before. He had always barged in when he wanted to.

Even Second Miss from a noble family had lost all her dignity.

Despite her doubt, Xia Yanru still said, "Please come in."

The door creaked open and an old man with a withered face walked in. Unexpectedly, he was still looking at Xia Yanru with a polite smile.

Who was this person? I don't think I've ever seen him before.

Xia Yanru felt that it was a little strange. No matter how little attention she received, this was still the inner chamber of the Xia Family. After all, he couldn't just barge in openly like that, could he? Could it be that Song Shengcheng's group really ate their fill?

She smiled wryly in her heart. Even if they were all just there for food, she had no way to fight them.

Xia Ling didn't say anything at first.

He was somewhat conflicted over how he should reply to Second Miss.

After all, in Xia Ling's own eyes, the reason why his Xia Family had fallen to such a state was because of the loss of a young cultivator. And this was his responsibility.

Of course, Xia Yanru had never blamed Xia Ling for losing control of the secret plane. On the contrary, she was particularly worried about Xia Ling's safety. She even dreamed of Xia Ling when Song Shengcheng had just arrived.

In his dream, this young man shone like a shooting star. had once again saved Xia Family from crisis. In front of him, no matter if it was Song Shengcheng or a cultivator of the Congealing Void rank, none of them were a match for him!

This was the impression Xia Ling had left on his family, Second Miss. No matter who it was, no one was able to stop him. If only he were here at this time?

However, this was destined to be a delusion.
