Rebirth: He refused to Divorce Again-Chapter 1285: Great Elder Sima

Gu Qiaoqiao shook her head, "I can’t confirm this, the key is I haven’t seen any information or materials on it..."

"Can Fang Liang notice it himself?" Xiao Wen asked somewhat disappointed.

"He can’t notice it."

"Then let’s leave it for now, before we leave I still want to take a look."

"When the time comes, I’ll go with you, then I’ll also check if there’s any change with that stone."

Xiao Wen nodded, pulling Gu Qiaoqiao, "Let’s leave it like this for now, come on, let’s go check the entrance first."

The two of them prepared to check the special entrance to the Phoenix Clan. Last time they left in a hurry, not knowing if it was thoroughly handled.

And they also wanted to take another look at that cave.

Although there were no traps left in the cave, since they were there, they had to go once.

The two left the small park and, like last time, came to the entrance, the shrubs still concealed a barrier that others couldn’t detect.

This barrier was strange, not man-made, but no one could find it, it should be a secret unique to the Phoenix Clan.

However, Gu Qiaoqiao had handled this area, even if discovered naturally, she had added protection.

Like last time, there was still no one here.

Gu Qiaoqiao was about to slip inside when Xiao Wen grabbed her, her eyes fixed intently on a spot in the shrubs...

Her expression was somewhat incredulous and excited.

"Sister Xiao Wen, what’s wrong?" Gu Qiaoqiao asked suspiciously,

Xiao Wen continued looking at that spot, then lifted her head, her eyes bursting with brilliance and joyfully said, "Qiaoqiao, it looks like my dad is here."

"Ah, Uncle is here..." Gu Qiaoqiao was both surprised and happy.

"Let’s go, quickly check the cave, maybe Dad will be there..."

Then, without waiting for Gu Qiaoqiao to speak, Xiao Wen pulled Gu Qiaoqiao and they darted into the bushes.

The air seemed to ripple, then returned to silence.

Gu Qiaoqiao and Xiao Wen quickly arrived at the mouth of the cave.

It was still surrounded by greenery, filled with birds’ chirping and the fragrance of flowers, several peaches still hung on the old peach tree at the entrance.

Under the old peach tree stood an elderly man with hair and beard all white.

He seemed over seventy years old, but his face was rosy, his eyes sharp and wise, yet showing signs of worldly experience.

"Dad!" Xiao Wen called out in surprise and joy.

"Xiao Wen." The old man was obviously surprised too.

"When did you come to Jinling City?" It was a question they both asked simultaneously.

No wonder they’re father and daughter.

Gu Qiaoqiao pursed her lips and smiled.

Xiao Wen rushed to the old man, cuddling his arm playfully, "Dad, why are you in Jinling City, did you receive my letter?"

"Your letter?" The old man shook his head, "I didn’t get your letter, I’m here for another matter..."

He smiled warmly at Gu Qiaoqiao, "You must be the Gu Family’s little successor?"

Xiao Wen introduced joyfully, "Dad, this is Gu Qiaoqiao, our young mistress. Qiaoqiao, this is my dad, everyone calls him Elder Sima..."

"Sima?" Gu Qiaoqiao was surprised, looking at Xiao Wen, suddenly realizing, "So your surname is Sima? I always thought it was Xiao?"

Xiao Wen giggled, "Silly girl, who has the surname Xiao? People from the Phoenix Clan have always been surnamed Sima, but this surname was hidden many years ago..."

"..." Gu Qiaoqiao looked at Xiao Wen speechlessly.

"Qiaoqiao, it’s not that I didn’t tell you, it’s just I’ve never used the name Sima since I was born. I always thought my surname was Xiao, even after I knew, because I didn’t use it, I forgot again..." Xiao Wen said with a teasing smile.

Gu Qiaoqiao ignored Xiao Wen, looking at the old man, quickly greeted, "Hello, Uncle Sima."

"Uncle?" Elder Sima was surprised, stroking his beard with a laugh, "Qiaoqiao, that’s crossing generations..."

Not mentioning the real age, but in terms of current age, he’s grandfather generation.

"But I call Xiao Wen Sister Xiao Wen..." Gu Qiaoqiao said troubled.

"Alright alright, Qiaoqiao, don’t call me Uncle anymore, just call me Great Elder..."

Gu Qiaoqiao pondered briefly, this was good, avoiding crossing generations, and cheerfully called, "Great Elder."

Sima Elder was very pleased, using his divine sense to examine Gu Qiaoqiao, surprised inside, didn’t expect this girl’s spiritual power was so ample.

Even matching his own.

No, it could be said, it’s richer than his.

He couldn’t help but sigh, while also very relieved, the Mystic Sect was increasingly dwindling, maybe ultimately disappearing in the river of history.

Just like those brilliant figures of the past, in the end, they became nothing but dust.

Capabilities that cultivators had, some had already used them to go to another place suitable for cultivation.

Perhaps would never appear again.

Nowadays, known masters were becoming fewer and fewer.

What remaining were mostly beginners, or some impostors.

Thinking of this, Elder Sima looked at Gu Qiaoqiao with a special kind of respect.

In the Mystic Sect, age doesn’t matter, only skill does.

Even a ten-year-old, if capable, can become the clan leader of a tribe.

Gu Qiaoqiao was somewhat astonished, the Great Elder seemed respectfully looking at her, what’s going on, even though she was the owner of the Mysterious Dragon Box, Xiao Wen never looked at her like this.

Gu Qiaoqiao was a bit unaccustomed.

She felt like she was just an ordinary person.

Luckily, the Great Elder’s expression only lasted for a moment before returning to a gentle smile.

Xiao Wen released her hold, came to the peach tree, picked two peaches, wiped them, handed one to Gu Qiaoqiao with a grin, "Qiaoqiao, I thought all the peaches had fallen..."

Gu Qiaoqiao took a bite, still as sweet, she spoke with a muffled voice, "There are three left, probably after the next rain, they’ll all fall down."

Elder Sima looked at the two girls affectionately.

The remaining three peaches hanging high on the peach tree, he flicked his fingers, swish swish swish, the peaches fell one by one, he easily caught them, then placed them on the big green stone at the cave entrance, "Eat, these peaches have the spiritual energy of heaven and earth."

Xiao Wen quickly finished a peach but didn’t eat more, she had a lot to discuss with Elder Sima, and so did Gu Qiaoqiao, after the initial joy of first meeting, it was time to talk business.

Recently they’ve encountered so many things, indeed there were lots of questions, like the red lotus flower in the cave, Fang Liang’s red phoenix, the white stone Qin Yize received, and the village chief of Cliff Village...
