At this moment, looking at the slender figure not far away, Qingshu, who had been away from home for many years, his mouth was slightly open, and he couldn't believe his eyes.

I saw it under the light of the pale golden moonlight.

A familiar face that had not been seen for a long time was filled with a bright smile, and the perseverance revealed between the dark eyebrows was exactly the same as Qingshu himself.

There is no doubt that this person is none other than his sister Bai Guo, who he has depended on since childhood!

"How is it possible? How come Ging Guo appears here?"

Seeing this scene, the burly Qingshu had mixed feelings and couldn't help but have a puzzled expression on his face, almost unable to believe his eyes.

Directly opposite, the slender figure waved this way.

"Really Ginkgo?"

On the other side, Qingshu's resolute face immediately showed a look of surprise and joy. He left the team leader who was confused and rushed forward to greet him.

He never expected that the relatives he was missing in his heart just now would appear in front of him!

When they got closer, before Qingshu could say anything, Baiguo took advantage of the darkness and was directly dragged to the other end of the building under the cover of a large group of soldiers on his side and the nearby buildings.

Because all this happened in a flash of lightning.

Even the confused team leader didn't see clearly what happened, and Qingshu had already disappeared.

After a while, Ginkgo and Qingshu arrived at the position they had arranged.

In this position, although there was still a huge crowd, the people walking around were great swordsmen in plate armor and magicians in elf robes.

After standing up again, Qingshu first touched Gingo's head affectionately, and then said with a smile: "I didn't expect that my sister would grow so tall after not seeing her for several years.

It's more than one level better than those battle maids who shout and kill all day long."

Having said this, Qingshu, with a happy face, stretched out his hands, marked a distance of about one meter, and continued: "Remember when I left, you were only this tall."

"Brother, I was already very tall when you left home, okay?"

Pouting his lips slightly, Ging Guo raised his cheeks and said, "Brother, look at my breath, is there any change?"

"Aura? A few years ago, didn't you just advance to the level of a second-level powerhouse?

Otherwise, he would not have been selected into the City Lord’s Mansion. I think he should have reached the level of a second-level senior expert by now..."

However, before Qingshu finished speaking, he suddenly stopped, with a look of disbelief on his face.

At this moment, he was surprised to find.

The sister he has not seen for several years is actually almost as strong as his third-level, two-star self!

"How can this be?!"

Feeling extremely puzzled, Qingshu opened his senses fully and moved his eyes, looking up and down the ginkgo again. After repeated confirmation, he still got the same result as before.

There is no doubt that his sister has indeed entered the palace of a third-level powerhouse.

Such strength is enough to be considered top-notch even among the elite Lengyan Royal Guards.

"Gai Guo's cultivation talent is indeed very good. It is almost as good as my elder brother. There is no doubt about this."

At this moment, while feeling the joy of reunion,

Looking at his younger sister who was rising in strength in front of him, Qingshu's heart was filled with huge waves: "But at that time, when I left Mailan Town and went to the royal capital to explore.

Ging Guo, who is still young, has just broken through the bottleneck and entered the level of a second-level powerhouse.

And I have been wandering around the second-level peak level for some time, and I am no longer far away from the third-level powerhouse.

However, it has only been a few years since I last saw Ging Guo reach the same level of strength as me at rocket-like speed? It is simply unbelievable.

You know, as the elder brother, I have been practicing for nearly ten years longer than her."

Just when Qingshu looked surprised, his eyes fell on the bright golden ring worn by Bai Guo's slender hand, and he was once again stunned on the spot.

For him, who has been working as a guard in the royal capital all year round, this kind of priceless ring is very familiar to him.

Undoubtedly, it is a storage ring that can only be seen on high-ranking nobles and members of the royal family!

"A storage ring is a precious item that we commoners from poor families would never dare to dream of. How could Ging Guo have this?!"

While his mind was in shock, Qingshu's eyes almost popped out of his head when he looked at the ring on Bai Guo's hand, and he continued to think with his eyebrows: "Having said that, according to common sense.

There is no way that Bai Guo's cultivation progress could be so fast, as she has been at the Lord's Mansion in Mailan Town.

It is unlikely that he will leave the city and encounter any adventures, so the most likely possibility is that he has taken expensive strength-enhancing potions."

Thinking of this, Qing Shu's throat rolled, he swallowed involuntarily, and looked at Ging Guo with disbelief: "Not only does he have a storage ring.

Moreover, he took many magic potions and directly reached the third level.

Such treatment sounds extremely unbelievable even to me in the royal capital. Could it be that behind my sister, there is a powerful figure with huge energy?!"

"Brother, what are you thinking about?" On the other side, looking at Qingshu's shocked eyes, Baiguo smiled and said again.

"It's nothing." After calming down a little, Qingshu shook his head with mixed feelings and said: "Originally, as an elder brother, I planned to earn a few more gold dragons in the royal capital and come back to improve your life.

Now it seems that you, girl, have become so promising, which makes me a little envious."

"Brother, actually just a few days ago, I almost lost my life, and the reason why I am today is all because of the care of that adult..."

Next, Ging Guo did not hesitate.

He told Qingshu exactly what happened that day when he and his group met in an alley to avoid being chased, as well as the whole story.

"It turns out to be like this."

Hearing this, Qingshu was stunned for a while, and then he spoke again: "No wonder you appear here, it turns out it's because of that adult..."

At this moment, Qingshu's heart was full of thoughts.

When Lei Xiao first arrived in Kongqing Town by airship, Ariel's words and deeds had already given Lei Xiao a great shock.

You know, when in the royal capital, even the most powerful princes and nobles looked like they were trying to flatter the princess when they saw her.

After all, what the princess represents behind her is the absolute ruler of this land: the Lengyan royal family.

In the face of such a powerful person, he still did not lower his head. He had only seen Lei Xiao, the Lord of Kongqing City!

What he never expected was that the other party actually saved his only relative in this world. This action alone was enough to gain his absolute respect!

Just when Qingshu thought of this.

Surrounded by all the powerful men on his side, Lei Xiao stood indifferently and appeared in front of the two of them.

Next, after arriving in a quiet room, with little effort,

The crisp sound of armor clashing sounded, and the convinced Qingshu knelt down on one knee, bowing his head deeply to Lei Xiao: "My subordinate Qingshu Randy, is willing to swear allegiance to the lord!"

"Let's start signing the contract." Lei Xiao smiled slightly, his heart moved slightly, and a recruitment order suddenly appeared in his hand.

Immediately, a familiar prompt soon reached Lei Xiao's ears.

[Congratulations, the third-level two-star heavy swordsman Qingshu Randy has signed a master-servant contract with you and has become your new subordinate! 】

Immediately afterwards, while helping Qingshu up, Lei Xiao opened the opponent's attribute bar.

[Name: Qingshu]

[Occupation: Heavy Swordsman]

[Level: Level 3, Two Stars]

[Loyalty: 100]

[Skill 1: Shield-breaking slashing "Active" (physical single target attack, additional shield-breaking effect and armor-breaking effect)]

[Skill 2: Storm Spin "Active" (Small range physical attack)]

[Skill Three: Epee Mastery "Passive" (When using the epee, the damage will be slightly increased)]

Lei Xiao, who closed the attribute bar and sat at the top of the room again, motioned for Qingshu to sit next to him, picked up the fragrant tea that A Ling had just made, and took a sip.

Next, it’s naturally time to get to know Ariel better.

Lei Xiao slowly put down the teacup in his hand without hesitation.

He just briefly described his conjecture about Princess Ariel's personal visit to Kongqing Town to Qingshu.

"Back to Lord, everything is exactly as you expected."

After listening to Lei Xiao's description, Qingshu bowed slightly and continued: "As far as my subordinates know.

The castle where Princess Ariel is located has indeed been infiltrated by top assassins many times, and the target was Princess Ariel herself.

However, the subordinates are only responsible for peripheral security, and the specific situation is still unclear.

But my subordinates heard that after the secret investigation afterwards, each assassin seemed to have more or less contact with one of the other three princes who were vying for power."

"I see." Hearing this, Lei Xiao nodded slightly and said thoughtfully: "In other words, it's not just one prince who is eyeing Ariel's life?

It's no wonder that, although as Leng Yan's fifth princess, Ariel herself is the weakest, she still has the right to inherit the throne.

This alone is enough to give all the other princes a reason to attack him."

"What the lord said is absolutely true."
