Chapter 1983: The Battle XXXV
He cleared his throat and looked at Feng Chen. “Then, you should go. After all, Xia Xia is not safe in Nine Gate, and Nine Gate will ignore
if I went to pick her up.”
Feng Chen lowered his gaze; he continued to move the rocks from the rubbles.
“Xiao Qing will co back.”
He paused. “I hope the first person she sees when she cos back is ...”
“Alright...”
Feng Lianqing saw that Feng Chen could not be persuaded, and so, he said no more.
He could only follow them and continue to search...

Nine Gate.
A little girl sat next to the lake, resting her hand on her cheek, and her feet were swinging in the water.
Her face was as fair as jade, and even at a young age, she was already beautiful.
Nan Luo walked up behind the little girl; a cold light flashed in her eyes. She faked a smile as she headed toward Xia Xia.
“Xia Xia...”
Xia Xia turned and was greeted by a beautiful face.
She hesitated for a mont, could not even rember who this person was.
Since she ca to Nine Gate, Qiu Hui was afraid that the others in Nine Gate would hurt her, so she protected her very well, never letting anyone touch her.
The only ones who could approach her, besides the servants who took care of her, were Tang Yin, Xiao Ya, and Nalan Jing.
“Who are you?”
Xia Xia frowned. She sohow felt that this woman was weird; she had an innate feeling that she did not like her!
“I’m Hui You, the daughter of Venerable Hui Yan. Venerable Qiu Hui did not allow anyone to see you, so we have never t before. Now I finally understand why Maiden Xia Xia is chosen as the Holy Maiden of Nine Gate. I have admired you for a long ti, so I ca to et you.”
Xia Xia’s expression turned gloomy. “I’m not the Holy Maiden of Nine Gate. I’m Mother’s daughter! I want to go ho, and when Mother and the others co back, they will co to pick
up.”
Nan Luo was a little surprised. She looked at Xia Xia’s small face, looking as if she was about to say sothing, but she held it back.
“Do you have anything else? Don’t co to
if there’s nothing. I don’t like strangers.”
Xia Xia snorted. She felt that this woman looked strange, but her scent was sowhat familiar.
It seed like she had t her sowhere but could not rember it...
Nan Luo opened her mouth and looked at Xia Xia pitifully. She was silent for a mont before continuing, “Maiden Xia Xia, Nine Gate is a nice place, and everyone in Nine Gate is very friendly. You’d better...”
“Why?” Xia Xia stood up.
This little girl was only nine years old, and there was still innocence in her ignorant gaze.
“Mother will co to take
ho, right?”
Nan Luo looked at Xia Xia sympathetically.
However, her gaze had made the little girl angry.
“Where’s Mother? Where’s my mother??”
Her mother said that she would co back soon...
So even after following Qiu Hui to Nine Gate, she still kept waiting for her mother to co and take her ho.
Qiu Hui was good to her, but she was not her mother...
She only wanted to return to her mother.
Nan Luo took a few steps back; she bit her lip. “I thought you knew that Maiden Feng and Master Nan Xian... They... They are dead...”
‘They... They are dead?’
These words were like a bolt of lightning from the sky, striking down, making Xia Xia’s face freeze.
