Just Discharged From the Military and Got Tied Down by A Cold Beauty Chapter 174: White Beard Grandpa

Lu Xiao smiled towards Ali and then nodded his head.

"It looks like I won’t be dying, sorry Little Ali, you might not have a feast to enjoy," Lu Xiao said softly.

Although Ali would always talk about having a feast at his expense, it was just talk. In taking care of him, the little girl was quite adept and thorough.

If it weren’t for Ali feeding him porridge every day, he, Lu Xiao, feared he wouldn’t have survived long enough to save himself.

"It’s okay, big brother," Ali imdiately gestured with her hand.

Then, Ali seed to rember sothing, "The villagers say that Huhu’s grandpa is about to die, they’ll get to have a feast."

Lu Xiao wanted to laugh, but he restrained it forcefully, afraid to burst his wound.

"Afterwards, without his grandpa, Huhu won’t dare to bully you anymore, right?" Lu Xiao continued.

According to Ali’s description a couple of days ago, Huhu was quite the archenemy to her.

They fought almost every day.

"Anyway, I’m not going to fight with Huhu anymore," Ali seed to have made up her mind about sothing.

Hearing Ali’s words, Lu Xiao opened his mouth but couldn’t say anything.

Probably, this was just how children are.

Their friendship and enmity co so easily, then vanish just as mysteriously.

Sotis, a toy could cause them to fight fiercely; but after a few days of running together in the rain, they could beco the best of friends again.

The older you get, the more complex things beco, with grudges hard to let go, hatred difficult to soothe, love hard to abandon, separation hard to forget...

All emotions seem to grow with the passage of years, taking over your innocence, monopolizing your romance, until you beco just... an ordinary adult.

"Are you feeling unhappy, big brother?" Ali, quite perceptive, tilted her head and asked Lu Xiao.

"Yes," Lu Xiao nodded and did not deny, "I was bullied, and I couldn’t fight back."

Ali pouted her lips and then nodded like a little adult: "So that’s it. Ali used to always get beaten up by Huhu too, but after I learned boxing from White Beard Grandpa, I could beat Huhu."

"Big brother, I’ll take you to White Beard Grandpa," Ali offered.

"Let White Beard Grandpa teach you how to fight, then you won’t be bullied again."

Having said that, Ali ca over to help Lu Xiao.

Lu Xiao initially wanted to refuse, but seeing Ali so earnest, in the end, he couldn’t bear to do so.

Lu Xiao walked very slowly, and Ali didn’t rush him, just patiently assisting him for half an hour.

A stone house appeared in Lu Xiao’s field of vision.

"Big brother, this is White Beard Grandpa’s house, he’s very powerful," Ali said.

Lu Xiao nodded, then sat down to catch his breath.

This half-hour effort had exhausted nearly eighty percent of his strength.

"White Beard Grandpa, are you ho?" Ali called through the door.

"Cough cough cough..." A few coughs ca from inside the stone house.

Then, the wooden door opened, and an old man with white hair and beard ca out holding a bowl.

Seeing the old man, Lu Xiao was dumbfounded.

"Mas... Master? How co, how are you here?"

Xuanyuan Panshi glanced at Lu Xiao, then snorted lightly before placing the bowl in front of Lu Xiao.

"Don’t call Master, it’s embarrassing. To be beaten up to such a sorry state," he said.

Lu Xiao didn’t argue and just started to drink from the bowl.

It tasted spicy, mixed with the aroma of various herbs.

It was only after he drank everything in the bowl that Lu Xiao let out a long sigh of relief.

He had been worried that he might die from an infection, but now, it seed his life was definitely saved.

It appeared that it wasn’t just luck that Ali had saved him; his master must have pulled him back from the brink.

"So you just had to torture for a couple of days, huh?" Realizing this, Lu Xiao couldn’t help but complain.

To know that for the past couple of days he had truly been hovering on the edge of death countless tis.

If the old man had treated his injuries sooner, by now he might well have been able to hop and jump around.

"It’s a lesson for you, to make it morable," Xuanyuan Panshi replied.

"You even dared to confront Heavenly Man head-on; you really are getting carried away," Xuanyuan Panshi rolled his eyes as he spoke.

Even though he was criticizing Lu Xiao, his eyes were filled with pride.

See? My disciple, Lu Xiao, at 23, stood his ground against a Heavenly Man, not only piercing the Heavenly Man’s knee but also surviving himself!
