I've been reborn, who still chases the school hunk?

Chapter 149

"I saw that you look a bit like Uncle Yun before, and I heard that Uncle Yun lost his pregnant wife, so I went to investigate out of curiosity." Lin Xiaofeng looked indifferent. He was not a person who did good things. If Uncle Yun had not been kind to him, he would not have done this. But now he has a strong interest in Lu Xuanxin. In the past two months, she has turned from a useless person into a cultivator. In addition to the legend of the blood bracelet, is all this true? His heart was full of doubts and curiosity, as if he was in a fog, eager to find the truth.

In the vast land of Zhongyuan, the mountains and rivers are magnificent, and the clouds and mists are lingering, just like a natural ink painting. This is a holy place that all masters on the continent yearn for. Countless legends and secrets are intertwined and deposited in this ancient land. And the legend of the blood bracelet is like a magnet, attracting countless strong people to explore. However, the mystery of Zhongzhou is not isolated from the world, and the ups and downs of the outside world can always be found here.

Lin Xiaofeng stood on the tower of Jingjiang State, looking at the mountains in the distance, and a feeling of worry surged in his heart. He sighed softly: "We have to leave Jingjiang quickly, so as to avoid the country from suffering!" While speaking, his eyes revealed not the real concern for this small country, but the loyal execution of Uncle Yun's instructions. He knew that only by keeping Lu Xuanxin away from all this could he ensure her safety, which was also the real mission of his trip.

Lu Xuanxin, a girl with clear eyes and extraordinary temperament, was immersed in complicated thoughts at the moment. She didn't have too much nostalgia for Jingjiang, but she didn't want to bring disaster to this land because of her existence. When she heard someone suggested to find Senior Feng Yu, she couldn't help but feel a ripple in her heart. "I remember this matter." She said softly, revealing a trace of imperceptible worry between her eyebrows.

As night fell, the moonlight was like water, sprinkling in the quiet courtyard. Lin Xiaofeng left quietly without disturbing anyone, leaving Lu Xuanxin alone, wandering in the moonlight, with mixed feelings in her heart. She was about to go to Li Ai to ask the truth of some things, but suddenly she found a familiar figure standing outside the door, which shocked her heart.

He was a middle-aged man, wearing a green robe, with an elegant temperament, a fair face, and deep eyes, as if hiding endless stories. He was Lu Xuanxin's father, Lu Miaomiao.

"Daddy?" Lu Xuanxin exclaimed in a low voice, his heart full of surprise and confusion. Why would his father, whom he hadn't seen for many years, suddenly appear here?

Lu Miaomiao stared at his daughter, his eyes showing both love and guilt. "Xuanxin, Daddy wants to talk to you alone, is that okay?" His voice was low and humble, as if he was asking for a long-lost forgiveness.

Lu Xuanxin glanced at Tianying beside him, motioning him to wait, and then stepped aside to let his father in. Inside the house, the flickering candlelight reflected the complicated expressions of the two people.

"Dad, why are you here suddenly?" Lu Xuanxin was puzzled. In her memory, her father was always busy with family affairs and rarely cared about her. Now this sudden visit made her feel very surprised.

Lu Miumiao sighed and said slowly: "I heard that you are well. Your mother will be very happy when she knows it." As he spoke, he seemed to be lost in memories, and a trace of tenderness and sadness flashed in his eyes.

Lu Xuanxin frowned, she found it hard to believe that her father was "happy". Could it be that there was some unknown secret behind this?

"Are you blaming your father for not caring about you all these years?" Lu Miaomiao's voice was low and full of bitterness. "Actually, this is all your mother's idea!"

"What does mother mean?" Lu Xuanxin was even more confused. Would mother let her father alienate her daughter? But if what Lin Xiaofeng said was true, then everything seemed to have a reasonable explanation.

Lu Miaomiao's eyes became deep, as if he had traveled through time and space and returned to that turbulent era. "I was seriously injured that year, and it was your mother and Senior Feng who saved me. We fell in love at first sight. But at that time, she was already two months pregnant." His voice was low and full of emotion, and every word seemed to be dug out from the bottom of his heart.

"I originally thought that we were not destined to be together, but I didn't expect your mother to find me and use her identity as a four-star alchemist to help the Lu family become the richest family in Jingjiang." When she said this, Lu Miumiao's eyes were filled with both gratitude and helplessness.

"I promised to give her the position of the principal wife and give you the status of the legitimate daughter, hoping that we could live a stable life. But for more than ten years, your mother has not allowed me to see you more often, let alone get close to you. Until she died, she asked me to leave you here." There was a hint of sob in his voice, and it was obvious that he had not been happy in the past ten years.

Lu Xuanxin couldn't help but feel a little sympathy when he heard his father's story. It turned out that when his mother Mu Qiya fled here, she met Lu Miumiao and used his identity as a person from a remote country to hide her whereabouts. In the final analysis, she still used him.

"Where is mother now?" Lu Xuanxin asked softly. The hatred and the pain of longing for father's love in his heart seemed to disappear at this moment.

"Your mother seemed to have heard the news about your father, so she left to find him. As for where she went, she didn't tell me." Lu Miaomiao took a deep breath and continued, "I heard that something had changed in Haoyue City, so I rushed back. Seeing your recent changes, I guessed that you might be leaving. I hope that when you find your mother in the future, you can tell her that the door of Jingjiang Lu Mansion is always open to her."

Lu Xuanxin looked at his father silently, feeling mixed emotions. Was this man still dreaming of an unattainable dream?

Lu Miaomiao was a little embarrassed by his daughter's gaze, and he didn't dare to say this to Mu Qiya. After all, the emotional entanglement between them was too complicated.

"Do you know your mother's name?" Lu Xuanxin suddenly asked. As a daughter, she didn't even know her mother's name, which made her feel a little absurd. As her husband's father, he should know it, right?

Lu Miaomiao was even more embarrassed. She coughed and said, "Your mother asked me to call her 'Xiao Mu'."

Lu Xuanxin held his forehead in silence. It was indeed so! This mysterious and powerful woman always existed in such a unique way.

"How could you have loved someone for more than ten years when you didn't even know his name? Didn't your grandfather and the others ever doubt it?" Lu Xuanxin couldn't help but ask.

"Your mother is a four-star alchemist, who dares to doubt her?" When he mentioned his lover, Lu Miaomiao's tone became tough. His eyes flashed with determination and persistence, as if he was announcing to the world his unrepentant love for Mu Qiya.

Lu Xuanxin almost choked on her own saliva. It's not that there were no doubters, but they were all suppressed by her mother! She shook her head helplessly, and her admiration and fear for her mother increased a little more.

"How do you know we are leaving?" Lu Xuanxin changed the subject. She didn't want to continue dwelling on her mother's affairs.

"It's my intuition! The young man just now..." There was a hint of uncertainty in Lu Miumiao's words.

"He said he knew my father." When Lu Xuanxin mentioned this, she became confused again. She couldn't wait to find Li Ai to ask her about it and solve all the mysteries.

But before she could leave, Li Ai had already arrived. She politely saluted Lu Miumiao, then looked at Lu Xuanxin, with a subtle hint of deep meaning in her eyes.

"The master is here too." Li Ai said lightly.

"I just came back to see Xuanxin." Lu Miaomiao stood up and prepared to leave. After walking a few steps, she turned back and asked softly, "Senior Feng, are you planning to take Xuanxin away?"

Li narrowed her eyes slightly, then nodded. Her eyes flickered with complex thoughts, as if she was weighing something.

"When? I'll take you there." There was a barely perceptible hint of anticipation in Lu Miumiao's voice.

"No need." Li's tone remained calm, but it revealed an unquestionable firmness.

Lu Miumiao nodded and said nothing more. He left the room sadly, his back looking a little lonely and desolate. Perhaps, their fate has come to an end? He used to think that even if they broke up, as long as Xuanxin was still there, he would come back eventually. But five years have passed, and there has been no news. Now even the last trace of thought is gone... He sighed softly and disappeared into the night. But Lu Xuanxin's heart was filled with huge waves. She knew that she was about to embark on an unknown journey to find the mother who was both familiar and unfamiliar, and to uncover all the mysteries. And all this will start from leaving Jingjiang...

Lu Xuan's heart softened and her steps involuntarily quickened. She walked quickly forward and said softly, "Dad, I will come back to see you when I am free." Her voice was gentle and firm, with expectations for the future and reluctance to leave her loved ones.

Lu Miumiao's steps paused slightly, as if time had frozen at this moment. He slowly turned around, and a barely perceptible excitement flashed across his old face. He hugged Lu Xuanxin into his arms, his eyes reddened, tears streaming down his face, and he kept saying, "Good! Good! Good!" He repeated these three words several times, full of excitement and reluctance, as if he wanted to pour all his emotions into this moment.

Li Yu, who was standing nearby, frowned slightly when she saw this scene, and a complex emotion flashed in her eyes, but she didn't say anything after all. She silently watched the father and daughter, and an indescribable emotion surged in her heart.

After a while, Lu Miumiao loosened his hand and took out an extremely exquisite necklace from the storage ring. It was a necklace made of small blue shells, with a few pearls hanging below, and the whole shape was like a heart. He hesitated for a moment, but still handed it to Lu Xuanxin and said, "I bought this at an auction two years ago, and I have always wanted to give it to you as a souvenir." After that, he hurriedly stuffed the necklace into Lu Xuanxin's hand, as if he was afraid that she would refuse. Then, he turned around and strode away, leaving only a gradually receding back.

"Daddy!" Tianying called out from outside the door. Her voice was clear and pleasant, with a hint of anxiety and concern.

"Well, Shuang'er, you've worked hard." Lu Miumiao patted Tianying's shoulder, his eyes full of love and gratitude, "Take good care of Xuanxin." He looked at Lu Xuanxin deeply again, then turned and left, disappearing from sight.

Tianying watched Lu Miumiao's back as he walked away, and only turned and walked in when he completely disappeared from her sight. She walked into the room and saw Lu Xuanxin looking down at the necklace in his hand, with a complex look in his eyes.

"This necklace is so beautiful." Tianying said softly, trying to break the silent atmosphere.

Lu Xuanxin looked up at her and smiled: "Yes, this is a gift from my father." Her voice was choked with emotion. She knew that this necklace was not only a gift, but also a token of her father's love and blessing.

Tianying walked to Lu Xuanxin and patted her shoulder gently: "Don't be sad, we will meet again." Her voice was gentle and firm, as if giving Lu Xuanxin strength.

Lu Xuanxin looked down at the necklace in her hand. There were complicated formations engraved on each shell. Although she didn't understand it, she knew that the value of this necklace was extraordinary. In the end, she still put the necklace on her neck. Whether it was out of her own heart or to continue the love from her father, she hoped that this necklace could accompany her.

"Young lady, have you condensed the star core?" Li Yu frowned and looked at Lu Xuanxin carefully. There was a trace of worry and curiosity in her eyes.

Lu Xuanxin was silent for a while, and just nodded gently. She knew that condensing the star core was an important milestone for a cultivator, and it also meant that she was about to embark on a more difficult path of cultivation.

Li Yu pondered for a while and her expression became serious: "You already know something, right?" Her voice was low and powerful, as if she was going to uncover a dusty secret.
