656: After modification: Chapter 28 Good Person 656: After modification: Chapter 28 Good Person “Mr.
Xiao Xie, I didn’t expect you to be this kind of person.”
After Yuan Yi left, Sang Guard, who had been leaning on the railing for a long time, couldn’t help but express his feelings.
As the close servant to the young State Preceptor, Sang Zheng often heard Chen Jingxuan’s descriptions of “Xie Zhen”…
He had also received transmission tasks multiple times; the young State Preceptor repeatedly asked Sang Guard to notify friendly forces of the Book Tower not to provoke Xie Zhen under any circumstances.
This guy is a disciple of Xie Xuanyi, a bona fide killer.
This stereotype was already ingrained in Sang Zheng’s mind.
If it weren’t for witnessing it with his own eyes.
He found it really hard to imagine Xie Zhen patiently instructing others in swordsmanship.
“What kind of person?” Xie Xuanyi asked, puzzled.
Sang Guard thought for a long time, trying hard to grasp the thoughts in his mind, then said, “A good person?”
“Sounds like a good title.”
Xie Xuanyi said faintly, “It’s a pity it doesn’t fit me.”
In both his previous life and this life, the things he did had nothing to do with being a “good person.”
He killed many people.
Combined with the killings of two lifetimes, the blood on Xie Xuanyi’s hands could almost dye an entire river red.
Such a person, can he still be called a good person?
“How doesn’t it fit?”
Sang Guard smiled, “In my heart, Mr.
Xiao Xie is a good person.
Since you came to the Imperial City, the young State Preceptor’s condition has improved a lot.
That’s a great thing.”
Xie Xuanyi smiled silently.
He had many things he wanted to do.
However, being a good person.
Was never within his consideration.
these days, besides Miss Yuan, many people have come to see you.”
Sang Zheng said earnestly, “You said you wanted peace and quiet, so most of them I turned away.
But some need your personal response; these are the visiting cards they submitted.”
Xie Xuanyi took the visiting cards and glanced briefly.
No need to mention the neighbors on Yong’an Street.
After the Northern Hunt, the young disciples of the Northern County families no longer saw him as an enemy, but rather as an idol…
That’s the culture of the Northern Territory: if they are enemies, they will fight to the death; if they are friends, they can run through fire and water for each other.
These young disciples may have moved to the Imperial City following the royal decree, but the spirit in their bones and blood has never changed.
Xie Xuanyi put away the visiting cards, shook his head, “Please decline all of these cards for me.”
Sang Zheng was somewhat surprised.
From what he knew, Martial Sect, Qiantian Palace, and Yuqing Pavilion, had good relations with Mr.
During the Northern Hunt disaster.
Xie Zhen saved many lives.
“What’s the point of meeting?”
Xie Xuanyi disliked pleasantries, and even more so useless social interactions.
He said calmly, “Soon, I will head south…
If fate allows, we will meet again during the attack on the Evil Cultivators.”
“That’s valid reasoning.”
Sang Zheng smiled bitterly.
He wanted to say, before a major battle, it’s customary for the righteous sects to meet and familiarize themselves with each other.
But upon further thought.
Xiao Xie the type that needs to cozy up to these people?
During the last Northern Hunt.
Those Saint Heirs and Heavenly Pride bonded together, but Mr.
Xiao Xie ventured alone!
Indeed, the Saint Heirs and Saintesses of Martial Sect, Qiantian Palace, and Yuqing Pavilion had the strength to rank among the top ten on the Heavenly Pride List, but so what?
Compared to Xie Zhen, these three fell short.
True strongmen never needed to follow those rigid rules.
these young Heavenly Prides presented visiting cards as a matter of etiquette.”
Sang Zheng said slowly, “Directly ignoring them, wouldn’t that be inappropriate?”
Xie Xuanyi looked at Sang Guard and smiled.
He knew that recently, Sang Zheng sent three visiting cards for the Book Tower, to which only Shang Yi of the Taoist sect responded.
This was indeed improper behavior.
The current reminder was fearing he might not grasp social etiquettes and thereby provoke enemies.
“Of course, we can’t do that.”
Xie Xuanyi said, “Just say I’m busy closing up and truly have no time to meet.”
Xie Xuanyi reminded, “But I’m not really in seclusion…
If Miss Yuan comes again tomorrow, you don’t need to stop her.”
Xiao Xie, who do you take me for?”
Sang Zheng raised his eyebrows and laughed, “Miss Yuan has already submitted a visiting card on behalf of Baihua Valley, did you hear me mention it?”
Being a house guard, the most important thing was keen insight!
Sang Zheng had worked at the Book Tower for many years, and he was never short of insight.
Many people had submitted visiting cards, but unable to guess Xie Zhen’s intentions, Sang Zheng dare not take decisions, opting to momentarily set them aside.
But Yuan Yi alone, he knew that Xie Zhen would certainly meet.
Hence he “acted first and reported later.”
When reporting, he privately let Miss Yuan into the mansion.
“It’s not what you think…”
Xie Xuanyi started to explain but seeing Sang Zheng’s “no need to explain, I fully understand” expression, he helplessly waved his hand, “Fine, whatever you think is up to you, just don’t spread rumors exaggeratedly.”
Sang Zheng pounded his chest and assured, “I’m not like Mr.
Jiang, who spills secrets after drinking a little, Mr.
Xiao Xie and Miss Yuan’s matters…
Sang won’t say a word.”
Baihua Valley had booked the largest inn on this street.
After traveling several hundred miles to the Imperial City, one could say it was strenuous, and most disciples were resting in their rooms.
Yuan Yi carefully opened the door, only to see a figure silently standing by the window.
She was startled and quickly greeted respectfully.
Ye Qinglian, back facing Yuan Yi, silently watched the scenery of Red Shadows Street, and said indifferently, “You went to the Chen Mansion?”
Yuan Yi dared not conceal anything and spoke in a soft voice.
Ye Qinglian did not turn around, continuing to ask, “I heard that you and Xie Zhen have a good relationship?”
Yuan Yi hesitated for a moment.
She stammered, “Master, we…
Ye Qinglian chuckled.
She slowly turned around, saying, “When I said good relationship, I meant as friends, what else could it be?”
Yuan Yi’s voice was bitter; she quickly apologized.
Xiao Xie treated her as a friend.
Xiao Xie were more than that.
Yuan Yi liked Xie Zhen, and this wasn’t a secret; Lu Yuan and other senior sisters could see it.
“What did you do wrong?”
One sentence from Ye Qinglian left Yuan Yi speechless.
The young girl tightly squeezed her sleeve, unable to speak.
“Rest assured, I came here today not to punish you.”
Ye Qinglian said softly, “Your thoughts are plain to see, but Baihua Valley is not the Taoist sect; what’s wrong with liking someone.”
Yuan Yi looked up in confusion.
“I heard that the major families and Holy Lands of the Imperial City went to the Chen Mansion to visit today, and all were rejected.”
Ye Qinglian, hands behind her back and looking down, said slowly, “Xie Zhen is willing to meet you, and that’s a good thing.”
